Iron Dynasty

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the battlefield, and the figure of the soldier returning in the dim yellow light stretched for a long time.

During this period of time, the soldiers of the Great Yu Kingdom and the barbarian soldiers fought repeatedly here, making this place a veritable meat grinder.

The trenches in front of Pingzhou City had been dyed red with blood, and the soil in the trenches was damp, stained with the blood of soldiers on both sides.

Soldiers' morale is extremely important in such a tug-of-war. Now the two sides are comparing who can't stand it and collapse across the board.

In the tent, Lu Fei, Lei Ming, and Luo Xin sat around a low table. Each of them had scruffy beards and dirty bodies.

During the few days of war, they seldom slept. They either led their soldiers to fight against the barbarian cavalry in person, or made plans to fight in the left center in the camp. Sometimes they couldn't sleep until midnight due to differences of opinion.

The barbarian soldiers rushed out today, not the barbarian slave soldiers, so there should be not many soldiers left in the city. Luo Xin said, looking in the direction of Pingzhou City.

The trouble is Wushugu's cavalry. Every time we are about to attack, he will lead the troops to attack the camp to contain our troops. Lei Ming frowned, We can no longer protect the cavalry, and now we must let them go together. The barbarian cavalry will fight hard, otherwise the army of the barbarians will continue to come, and this is a bottomless pit.

Lu Fei was silent, Wu Zhugu was very cunning, using the mobility of the cavalry, he did not face the musketeers at all.

Instead, he rushed over every time he waited for an opportunity to find the chaos of the array.

30,000 people are not enough for Wushugu's cavalry to plug their teeth. Lu Fei glared at Lei Ming, and he said, I can count on Qi Guangyi now, and I hope this kid can make some big moves to give the barbarian cavalry. Attract away, otherwise it will be difficult.

Luo Xin and Lei Ming looked at each other when they heard the words, and Luo Xin said, Qi Guangyi is brave and resourceful, I hope so.

...

In the Jinzhou camp, Qi Guangyi is working on a plan.

Simple looting and destruction can no longer meet the effect he needs now, because according to the news he got, more troops of the barbarians are still heading to Pingzhou City, which is simply ignoring his existence.

Attack Jinzhou! When Qi Guangyi revealed his plan, the generals thought he was crazy.

Commander Qi, we are cavalry, and horses can't fly up the city wall, said the commander of a cavalry division.

Horses can't fly up, but people can climb up. Qi Guangyi's eyes were deep, There are three thousand musketeers and sixteen artillery pieces in the camp, we only need one thousand musketeers and eight artillery pieces to blast away. The city gate of Jinzhou.

The commander of another cavalry division said, It's just that even if we blow open the city gate, Jinzhou is a huge city that claims to be inhabited by 600,000 barbarians, and we can't occupy it alone.

This general didn't say that we want to occupy Jinzhou City. Our purpose is to loot. Obviously, our looting in Jinzhou has spread, and many barbarians have fled into Jinzhou City, and you have seen it, and now some villages are already in With strong walls and clear fields, we will have nothing in a few days. Qi Guangyi reminded.

The generals nodded their heads when they heard the words. When they first arrived, they did gain a lot. Now, as time goes by, they have caught fewer and fewer barbarians.

Now they can only get prisoners by fighting with reinforcements, but such casualties are huge.

Looking at the generals, he continued: And now the barbarians are focused on Pingzhou City, Jinzhou City seems to be strong, but in fact the defense is very weak, even if we can't loot more slaves at that time, it will still attract The return of the barbarian soldiers of Pingzhou City.

Yes, Commander Qi.

The generals nodded, and Qi Guangyi's last words persuaded them.

The next day, Qi Guangyi ordered his soldiers and horses to go to Jinzhou City. He had already seen through the weak nature of Jinzhou.

The dispatch of the army immediately attracted the attention of the barbarian scouts, and they kept passing the news to Jinzhou City.

Hearing that the musketeers and artillerymen of the Great Yu Kingdom had appeared near Jinzhou City, the barbarian flag leaders of Jinzhou City were shocked, and he immediately dispatched scouts to Pingzhou City for help.

Because in his opinion, this must be the plan of the Great Yu Kingdom to attack the west, and the real purpose of the Great Yu Kingdom is to attack Jinzhou City.

Compared with the tension of the barbarians, Qi Guangyi seemed to be at ease. He led the cavalry to gather outside Jinzhou City, and then directed the artillery to aim at Jinzhou City.

However, he did not rush to attack the city, but prepared to play a show for the barbarians. That night he let a thousand musketeers leave at night, and then returned early the next morning to create the illusion of constant reinforcements of musketeers.

Seeing this scene, the head of the Jinzhou city flag was even more terrified, and the cavalry who asked for help kept setting out.

...

Pingzhou City, after a night's rest, the next day it fell into a fight again as usual.

In the morning, Lu Fei received an order from Niu Ben to take Pingzhou City within three days.

The order Zhong Niu Ben mentioned that Luo Hong's army had already rushed to Jinzhou by boat, and they would join Qi Guangyi, and the Holy Order would let Qi Guangyi and them feign to attack Jinzhou to attract the troops of the barbarians.

This time the emperor is cruel. I didn't expect to transfer half of Luo Hong's troops. Lei Ming said excitedly, but they didn't know that Qi Guangyi had already acted in advance.

Now that the battlefield is in a state of anxiety, Luo Hong's troops will officially break this stalemate when he arrives.

But what surprised them was that less than a day after Niu Ben's order arrived, 30,000 barbarian cavalry suddenly left for Jinzhou, and there were less than 90,000 cavalry left in Pingzhou City.

Although it is not clear why, this is definitely good news for the three of Lu Fei.

Immediately, Lu Fei ordered a fierce attack on Pingzhou City. Lei Ming personally led the cavalry into battle, while Luo Xin commanded the remaining chariots to form a chariot formation to protect the infantry's flanks.

Niuben's order only gave them three days, and now they are going to work hard.

Looking at the sudden deployment of the Great Yu Kingdom's army in Pingzhou City, Bei Shan slammed his fist on the city wall.

Best said pessimistically: The enemies you face are excellent in both weapons and tactics. This time is the right time to attack Jinzhou. If Jinzhou falls, you will be attacked by the enemy.

Shut up! Bei Shan's chest was heaving violently. Pingzhou City attracted most of the troops of the Khanate. Now they were very tired, and it was worse for them to attack Jinzhou at this time.

Best was not frightened by Bei Shan, he continued: Pingzhou City is too small and the city walls are not thick enough. Now the wise choice is to withdraw to Jinzhou City to rest.
