The Era of Generals

Chapter 426   The arrow is on the string

Huang Chengjian is full of ambition.

Mr. Zheng actually entrusted him with the task of making a surprise attack around the rear again, which is enough to show that he is a general who has truly been trusted by Mr. Zheng.

He was the one who led the raid on Xilong City last time, and that battle became a key battle to capture Xilong City, and Huang Chengjian gained a lot of military exploits from it.

He is now the commander-in-chief, and he can reach the rank of chief soldier if he goes one step further. In the past, even though he was only one rank away from the commander-in-chief to the chief soldier, it would be as difficult as climbing up, because there is no such thing as More battles will allow the generals to gain military exploits.

But the current battle has been fought from the province of Anluo to the province of Nantes. Not to mention the protracted period, which of the generals who survived the battle has not gained a lot of military exploits?

And Huang Chengjian is the one who has benefited more from them. He played a key role in Xilong City, and in Tianyuan City, he is about to play a key role!

As long as he wins Tianyuan City, the combat achievements he has accumulated at this time will help him break through to the general rank in one fell swoop!

Huang Chengjian, who had already planned in his heart, was of course unwilling to give up this opportunity. When Mr. Zheng ordered him to go around and make a surprise attack, the excitement in his heart reached its peak.

As long as this battle is successful, he will no longer be Governor Huang, but Master Huang Zongbing!

So, how could Huang Chengjian not be active?

In fact, at the main city gate, at the same time that the Qingyang Empire smashed the false city gate, Huang Chengjian had already arrived at the predetermined location, and also saw the left city wall on the left side of Tianyuan City, which was obviously sparsely guarded.

Although it has also been reinforced, the wall is dead, but the people are alive. Huang Chengjian believes that he will never be blocked by a city wall from being promoted to the general soldier!

So after quickly deploying the troops, Huang Chengjian launched an attack!

Different from the side of the main city gate, Zheng Yuanyun used swords and shields as the main force to attack the city, while on Huang Chengjian's side, in order to allow the troops to have extremely high mobility, they can reach the battle location faster.

However, Huang Chengjian's impatience returned to his impatience, and there were still necessary investigations, after all, he had seen the big pits at both ends of the main wall of Tianyuan City with his own eyes.

He didn't want this kind of thing to happen to him again.

So before the cavalry charged, he still sent a large number of engineering troops to clear the traps, and he did not issue an attack order until he was safe.

The left city gate of Tianyuan seems to be exactly as Zheng Yuanyun speculated, because the general's troops were deployed to the front, so although the city defenders saw their arrival, the intercepting offensives they made were sparse, and there was no main gate at all. The power over there.

This made Huang Chengjian even more certain that there were not as many guarding soldiers at the gate on the left as at the main gate, and Huang Chengjian could still see that the enemy troops on the top of the city were extremely panicked.

So what else is there to say?

Attack!

Smash the opponent's city gate to pieces!

A great opportunity for meritorious service is at hand!

This feels so familiar, just like in Xilong City, Mr. Zheng attracted a lot of attention from the enemy on the frontal battlefield, while he sneaked across Chen Cang, started from the other side, knocked on the opponent's door, and entered from the other side. achieved the final victory.

History will repeat itself!

Full of excitement and anticipation, Huang Chengjian gave the order to attack!

In an instant, the war horses roared, the war drums rang loudly, and while a large number of elite cavalry charged towards the city gate, they also paid attention to covering the infantry phalanx at a later position, responsible for advancing the hammer. With a complementary formation, Huang Chengjian was here For a moment, almost all of his troops were used.

He knew very well that what he was fighting was a fast attack, and he had to open up the situation before the enemy reacted. If the opponent sent troops to support the left city gate, the battle would enter a stalemate. In this way, Huang Chengjian wanted to The plan to tear open the breach through the left city gate was also shelved.

It's nothing if you can't beat Tianyuan City, but it hurts you the most if you can't make meritorious deeds. Huang Chengjian will not miss this hard-won opportunity.

However, at this moment, arrows rang out from the sky.

As Zheng Yuanyun's confidant, Huang Chengjian certainly understood the meaning of the arrow, but it was precisely because he understood that that his brows frowned.

Mr. Zheng...he actually wants to retreat?

Do you feel that your movements are too slow?

Or...some bastard ran to Mr. Zheng's ear to blow wind, trying to surpass himself and get this great military exploit?

The rank of the commander-in-chief was right in front of him, which made it impossible for Huang Chengjian to remain calm, nor to shrink back at such a time.

What's more, what he saw was a great opportunity to attack!

The so-called command of the generals abroad is not accepted. Mr. Zheng sent this loud arrow, but at the same time, Huang Chengjian's attack order has also been issued. At this moment, a small group of cavalry troops charging ahead have rushed out of the opponent's catapult The attack range is about to reach the city.

At this time, the arrow is already on the string and has to be fired.

Could it be possible to let those soldiers who had finally braved the artillery fire to retreat back?

One to one, one to one, how many times has it been beaten in vain?

Leaving aside the loss of troops, it also has a great impact on morale, not to mention watching the battle exploits that are about to be obtained come to naught?

Of course Huang Chengjian would not be reconciled!

So, he asked his subordinates to shoot the same arrows, but the response was...the battle is already in progress, and they currently have an absolute advantage. Please rest assured, Mr. Zheng.

rest assured?

How could Zheng Yuanyun feel relieved when he heard Huang Chengjian's message of the sounding arrow?

He had already taken care of himself by not exploding his lungs.

But helplessly, Zheng Yuanyun also knew very well that the arrow had to be fired. Since Huang Chengjian had launched the siege battle according to his first instructions, it was indeed unrealistic to force him to retreat at this moment.

In desperation, he had no choice but to quickly send someone to the left city gate to tell Huang Chengjian the news that the opponent's main city gate on the front battlefield was fake.

In any case, one must be on guard, but it is also possible that the other party has not completely sealed off Tianyuan City, and everything will not be known until the city gate is actually smashed.

Or maybe...the other party is not as shrewd as he imagined?

This thought just popped up in my heart, and then Zheng Yuanyun shook his head and threw it out of his mind.

Is it possible?

Ouyang Lixing has proved that he is not a person who is not famous. Now that he has such a plan, it is absolutely impossible to leave such a big loophole for his side to take advantage of. Therefore, the biggest possibility for Huang Chengjian is to be like him. Similarly, after charging with all his strength, he could only hit the city wall with his head.

Huang Chengjian couldn't stop it anymore, so he couldn't sit still and wait for death. The only thing he can add right now is...
