Chapter 233 Expansion of the Army
Boom!

As if the earth was shaking, the void seemed to be shaken out of ripples.

On the city wall, Zhang Hun and Huang Sheng watched the three thousand cavalry appearing in the distance, with worried expressions on their faces.

Although the Xiang family army only has [-] cavalry, cavalry is different from infantry. Under the leadership of a fierce general, it is not a problem for [-] cavalry to defeat tens of thousands of troops.

Xiang Han of the Xiang family army can be called a fierce general.

Mai Tiezhang's strength is not weak, but he came in a hurry. Most of the soldiers and horses in the two battalions are infantry. It may not be so easy to protect themselves from the cavalry assault.

"Sihong army?"

Among the cavalrymen of the Xiang Family Army rushing towards him, a young man in armor looked forward.He is Xiang Han, the cavalry general of the Xiang family army.

Fighting with the Qihuo army for so many days, Xiang Han also knew the reason why the opponent could persist for such a long time despite losing streak.

If there were no supplies and weapons from the Sihong army, he would have completely defeated the begging army.

In Xiang Han's eyes, the Sihong Army has become his enemy just like the Qihuo Army.

When he saw the Sihong army forming an array outside the city, his eyes suddenly flashed scarlet.

Immediately, he waved the long spear in his hand, shouted sharply, surged with vigor, and led the cavalry to charge directly towards the formation of Sihong army.

Xiang Han has a fierce personality, but he is not a fool who can act as a cavalry general. He has already seen the boats on the river in the distance.

Obviously, the Sihong army in front had just disembarked from the boat and had not had time to enter the city yet.

This is a good opportunity for cavalry assault.

Maybe, these thousands of Sihong soldiers could be defeated with one blow, and the morale of the begging soldiers in the city could be severely shocked, and the city could be taken down.

Boom!

The horseshoes roared, and they rushed to the front of the formation in the blink of an eye.

Mai Tieshang's face was cold, and he just watched the cavalry rushing towards him. In front of the formation, hundreds of sword shieldmen had already raised their heavy iron shields.

"Prepare!"

Seeing the cavalry approaching, Mai Tieshang suddenly pulled out the long knife from his waist, and the sword and shield hand immediately moved to one side, and a total of three hundred soldiers holding divine arm bows stepped out.

"shoot!"

Whoosh whoosh!

The god arm bow is called a bow, but it is actually a continuous crossbow, which can be fired continuously. The [-] god arm bows kept shooting, forming an overwhelming rain of arrows.

puff puff!

The rain of arrows whistled, piercing through the bodies of the cavalry rushing forward. In an instant, there was a scream, and all the horses were also overturned by the rain of arrows, and fell to the ground with a bang, tripping the cavalry behind.

It was originally extremely ferocious, as if cavalry cavalry rushing from a mountain torrent, the impact force was weakened abruptly by the three hundred divine arm bows.

"it is good!"

On the city wall, Zhang Hun and Zhang Hun, who were still worried about Mai Tiezhang, couldn't help shouting when they saw this scene.

The other soldiers of the begging army had been fighting with the Xiang family army these days, and they had already formed a blood feud with each other. Seeing the misfortune of the Xiang family army's cavalry, they all cheered.

"What a thief, there is a crossbow formation!"

When Xiang Han was covered by the rain of arrows, his pupils shrank sharply, and he kept waving the long spear in his hand, but he still underestimated the piercing power of the divine arm bow.

A few arrows tore through the iron armor on his body and pierced into his body.

His face was pale, and his body was in severe pain. He immediately pulled the reins and urged the horse to move to the right, not daring to forcefully charge the army.

People turned on their backs and dust flew up.

Xiang Han's life level has undergone several transformations, and his vitality is very strong, so he can still escape to one side in pain after being shot a few times.

But the cavalry behind him didn't have his ability.

Three rounds of arrow rain cover.

Half of the more than 1000 cavalry rushing to the front were shot to death on the spot, and all the cavalry who survived suffered varying injuries. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the cavalry behind quickly pulled up the reins to forcefully slow down.

Even if the war horse stood upright and rolled over to the ground, he didn't dare to try the arrow again.

"Attack!"

When the cavalry of the Xiang family army was in chaos, Mai Tiezhang keenly seized the opportunity, roared immediately, and personally led the elite under his command to attack forward proactively.

The cavalry has no impact power, and its power has been reduced by at least half.

Only a few of the [-] cavalry remained calm. Seeing the enemy rushing towards them, they quickly took off their bows and shot at Mai Tiezhang and others.

However, the arrows they shot could not be compared with the God Arm Bow.

boom!
Mai Tiezhang held a saber in his hand, with an incomparably strong figure, and his body was protected by aura, like a magic weapon, directly inserted into the chaotic cavalry.

……

Half a day later, the situation in Xihe City reached Sihong.
The light boat went down the water at an extremely fast speed.

After Wang Jing saw the information, he couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect that he had just subdued the beggar army, and when he took over the city, he would confront the Xiang family army.

"Xiang Jiajun is a strong enemy!"

Wang Jing secretly sighed, but he didn't worry too much, after all, the Sihong army is not what it used to be.

At this time, Shen Yi, Bu Zhi and others were reporting to Wang Jing about the expansion of the army.

"General Mai's garrison in Xihe City should be able to block Xiang's army's partial attack, my lord, don't worry!"

Bu Zhi read the information and said.

Wang Jing nodded slightly, and put down the information casually. To them, the short fight between Mai Tiezhang and Xiang Han could only be regarded as a trivial matter.

Later, add some material rewards to Mai Tiezhang, and promote some meritorious soldiers.

"I've read your report! Your opinion is to expand the number of soldiers to 20... Now that our army is surrounded by enemies, we only maintain 20 soldiers, isn't it a bit small?"

Wang Jing said.

Shen Yi stepped forward and said: "My lord, the 20 soldiers are the result of our several discussions. My lord, Yingwu, led the army to conquer Fu Rong and won a complete victory. But after the victory, we need some time to sort out the internal affairs! "

"The handling of the surrendered soldiers and captives, the resettlement of the common people, and the construction of the city in Wuhe County...the most important thing is to establish a country and become king soon, and thoroughly sort out the general and political system..."

"In a short period of time, our army can no longer send troops to the four directions. Under such circumstances, the number of recruits for expanding the army should not be too large, so as not to affect internal affairs and stability!"

Bu Zhi also said: "Although there are princes on all sides of our army, they will not attack us in a short time. If our army expands wantonly, it will alarm the opponent instead!"

"That's why I made a suggestion after discussing with Shen Changshi and Mr. Han!"

Wang Jing nodded.

He originally had 13 soldiers, but expanded to 20. According to these civil servants and advisers, it is enough for the time being.

Bu Zhi was right.

If the pace of military expansion is too large, forces such as Yang Xingmi and Xiang Jiajun will feel a strong threat.

By the time,
The other party didn't want to send troops, but was also stimulated by Wang Jing and wanted to strike first.

"What you say makes sense, then expand the army to 20!"

Wang Jing immediately made a decision and asked Shen Yi and Bu Zhi to hurry up and do this matter.
