Maoyuan County is located at the junction of Xiangyi House and Donglin House.

Since Xiangyi Prefecture began to promote official carriages, there have been many more businessmen going to and from Xiangyi Prefecture and Donglin Prefecture.

And the number of travelers who settled in Maoyuan County naturally followed.

Originally it was just an ordinary small county town, but because of these frequent business exchanges, it suddenly became lively.

On the official road, there is an endless stream of cars and horses coming and going, and in the tea shops on the roadside, cars and horses stop from time to time to have a cup of tea and rest.

"The North Barbarian is here!"

"Run!"

A shrill cry suddenly came, and several people came galloping from the direction of Donglin Mansion on horseback.

"Run!"

"The North Barbarian is here!"

Immediately the knight galloped past, shouting as he ran.

When the merchants and pedestrians on the official road heard the call, they were stunned for a moment, and then ran frantically towards the mountains and forests on both sides of the road.

As for the goods?

At this time, do you need to consider whether you need life or money?

In just a moment, the official road, which was still lively just now, was instantly clean.

The tea shop on the roadside is even more messed up.

Some people ran into the county seat, and some people hid in the forest.

Then, whether it was those who entered the county seat or those who hid in the mountains and forests, they all felt the earth tremble.

North barbarian, really here!

"Close the gates!"

"Ring the gong!"

Li Gan, the captain of the town military academy in Maoyuan County, issued the order immediately.

No one knew how Beimanzi appeared in the Tang Dynasty's territory, but with the town army in a county, it was impossible to stop the thousands of cavalry of Beimanzi.

The only thing they can do is to defend Maoyuan County.

"Light the wolf!"

Wolf smoke, that is, beacon communication.

Since King Yan guarded the Northland, in the past 20 years, there has been no wolf smoke in the Northland.

Now, the wolf smoke is rising again!

Li Gan didn't know why there was no wolf smoke coming from the north, or why the Beiman cavalry suddenly appeared outside Maoyuan County.

He only knew that if Beiman attacked the city, it would only be a death battle.

However, the Beiman cavalry went around the city from under Maoyuan County, all the way to the south.

Maoyuan county magistrate Chu Xiuyan picked up his sword as soon as he received the letter and went up to the city wall.

"It's not right!"

Chu Xiuyan looked at Li Gan next to him, "Li Xiaowei, what do you think this northern barbarian is going to do?"

"Anshun County!"

Li Gan raised his head abruptly, "Beiman should be going to Anshun County. Huangfengkou!"

"Come on, beat the drums!"

"Can't the North Barbarian just go to Anshun County like this, brothers who are not afraid of death, follow me out of the city!"

Li Gan guessed the goal of the Beiman cavalry, and without any hesitation, directly issued the order to go out of the city to meet.

Huang Fengkou, it is not a secret that Xu Lao Er killed the two little princes of Beiman in a row.

Instead, to boost morale, the news had spread long ago.

At this moment, the Beiman cavalry appeared here strangely, all the way to the south, which was clearly to attack the old and weak women and children of the Xu family.

At first glance, this matter has nothing to do with them.

However, the men of the Xu family were guarding at Huangfengkou, guarding the gates for Datang, and protecting the safety of these people.

If they watched the Xu family's women and children die under the swords of the Beiman cavalry, would they still be considered individuals?

Li Gan explained the whole story in a few words.

Most of the town troops in Maoyuan County were listed.

They are the town army and their duty is to defend the city. But once the war in the north is tight, they have to go to the battlefield to fight hard. Because of what the Xu family did, they didn't have to work hard.

Now, Beiman intends to take revenge, how can they sit back and watch?

"Chu County magistrate, the county seat will ask you!"

Li Gan bowed three times to this Chu Xiuyan, and then rushed out of the county seat with more than three hundred town troops.

Maoyuan County is not big, and the garrison army is no more than 500.

Of course, some of them are old and weak.

At this moment, there are more than 300 people who can follow Li Gan out of the city, which is already counted as all the fighting strength of the Nengzhan Town Army in Maoyuan County.

"Don't risk your life, our purpose is to hold them back!"

The smoke of the wolf has already risen. As long as these Beiman cavalry are held back, leaving time for the government to deal with it, then these Beiman cavalry will never come back.

...

The leader of the northern barbarian cavalry is now Xu Huairen, the Duke of Antai in women's clothing.

But at this moment, Xu Huairen was just wearing An Taigong's skin, and his inner thoughts had already changed, and he was still a woman.

"I don't know whether to live or die, kill them all!"

After discovering that the town army in Maoyuan County had left the city, Xu Huairen, who had changed his mind, waved his hand violently.

Then, one hundred Beiman cavalry separated from the brigade and charged towards the more than three hundred Maoyuan County town troops led by Li Gan.

"defense!"

Following Li Gan's shout, the three hundred town troops immediately formed an array and put up long horse-rejecting guns.

The horse-rejecting spear was specially made by the Tang infantry to fight against the northern barbarian cavalry.

Once the infantry encountered the charge of the cavalry, they would quickly take out their carbine and put them on the ground.

If the cavalry team ignores the refusal of the carbine and charges directly, it will inevitably end up alone.

And if the horse team detoured, they would be blocked and killed by soldiers with short crossbows.

Because the northern barbarians came with the strength of the whole family, when Li Gan received the news, he began to train the soldiers under his command.

If it was before, no one would pay attention to Li Gan's practice.

But now, on the contrary, everyone can't wait to practice for a few more days.

After all, the purpose of training now is to go to the battlefield and survive.

Refuse to hold up the horse gun, the Beiman cavalry really chose to detour.

Li Gan waved his hand decisively, and the crossbow shot quickly.

Shoot people first shoot horses!

The Beiman cavalry without war horses is a scum when faced with the foot soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

The hundred northern barbarian cavalry did not destroy Li Gan's three hundred town army, but half of them lost their lives. As for the rest, although they did not die, they lost their mounts.

"kill--"

Li Gan roared angrily, took the lead and charged with a knife.

The Beiman soldiers opposite him also ran up with their knives, ready to fight against Li Gan.

However……

"puff!"

Li Gan raised his hand, and the crossbow arrow in his hand shot straight through the man's chest.

"Scum!"

Knife to knife?

Are you stupid when you're an old man? Obviously it can kill you with less effort, how can it be possible to consume this physical strength.

On the battlefield, every ounce of effort saved will give you more hope of life-saving.

This is the experience summed up by Dad Li Gan.

And he was handed over to the town army in Maoyuan County without reservation.

As a result, the entire army of one hundred northern barbarian cavalry was wiped out, and the town army in Maoyuan County did not suffer any casualties.

Everyone followed Li Ganyou's example and swung forward with their knives, but when they approached the Beiman soldiers, they all pulled the trigger of the crossbow and shot the opponent with the crossbow arrow.

"Shameless Tang people!"

Xu Huairen, who had replaced the core, saw this scene and couldn't help cursing.

"High Priest!"

"Would you like to take a group at the end?"

A Beiman cavalry guard next to Xu Huairen said respectfully.
