Chapter 133
Outside the city of Yong County, a huge group of soldiers lined up in an orderly manner.
They had disheveled hair and held sharp blades, clearly looking like the roughnecks of Liangzhou.
Under the banners fluttering in the wind, several generals standing on horseback were looking towards Yong County and whispering.
It seemed that they had not expected that the four gates of Yong County were tightly closed, the city walls were high and the moats were deep, and the elite soldiers were armed with bows and crossbows, ready for battle. As if!
They had already made all the preparations.
Looking at the Qiang and Hu soldiers outside the city who had not attacked for a long time,
Gao Lan raised the corner of his lips slightly and uttered a sneer:
"My Lord, it seems that the Qiang and Hu are not that reckless, otherwise I would definitely let them taste the power of the three-bow crossbow."
Wang Hao nodded and said with a little disappointment:
"They probably knew that elite cavalry were good at fighting in the wilderness, and if they attacked Yong County by force, they would become sitting ducks."
"That's good!"
Wang Hao shrugged and said,"If they don't attack, they will definitely set up camp and wait for the main infantry to arrive. We can also have a half-day respite."
Although the Xiliang Cavalry is famous all over the world.
But it does not mean that Xiliang only has cavalry and no infantry.
In fact, the number of Xiliang infantry is far greater than the number of cavalry.
It's just that......
Xiliang was only famous for its powerful cavalry.
In the process of attacking the city, the Qiang and Hu tribes of Xiliang still mainly used infantry.
If the number of infantry was insufficient, the cavalry would dismount and fight as infantry.
In this battle, the Xiliang cavalry probably wanted to catch Wang Hao off guard, so they sent light cavalry first and heavy troops behind.
However, they did not expect that Wang Hao's reaction was even faster than their horses.
Therefore, they hesitated and stopped outside the city.
That's all!
"I'm afraid there's no chance to catch my breath."
Wang Hao wanted to turn around and leave, but was interrupted by Gao Lan's words.
He looked in the direction of Gao Lan's gaze.
Not far away, smoke and dust were rolling in.
It was obviously the rear army of the Xiliang Cavalry!
"Oh?"
Wang Hao couldn't help but be surprised:"They came so quickly!"
Gao Lan frowned, wondering in his heart:"With such a large-scale operation, how did they avoid our spying in Liangzhou?"
In fact.
Wang Hao was also asking himself.
According to common sense, the mobilization of tens of thousands of troops would definitely alarm Deng Zhan in Liangzhou.
But unfortunately, there was no news from Deng Zhan. Instead, he was discovered by the sentries in the direction of Weishui and sent back the information.
If Wang Hao had not been cautious and did not put all his hopes on Deng Zhan, it is very likely that Yong County would have been rushed into the city by the Qiang and Hu cavalry at this time, killing people!
Did Deng Zhan betray?
There is no possibility of this!
When Wang Hao met Deng Zhan, he knew that the other party was a loyal person.
Deng Zhan had also sent key intelligence many times before, proving that he had no intention of betraying.
Since it was not a betrayal, then.........
Wang Hao couldn't help but feel nervous.......
It was Deng Zhan who had an accident.
"My Lord, Deng Zhan will not......"
Gao Lan obviously realized something
""Don't let your imagination run wild!"
Wang Hao interrupted immediately.
Even if Deng Zhan really had an accident, Wang Hao would be unable to do anything about it. Instead of letting his imagination run wild, he might as well believe that Deng Zhan would be safe.
"Deng Zhan will be fine."
Wang Hao stared at Gao Lan with burning eyes, took a deep breath and said:"Kill the enemy with all your strength. Today is to test the results of our hard training over the past six months. Don't let the people in the city down!"
"Don't worry."
Gao Lan nodded and said confidently:"I have been waiting for this day. It's fine if they don't come, but once they attack Yong County, we will teach them a lesson about our power!"
"Yeah."
Wang Hao nodded:"There is a morale! Tell the brothers, if the first battle is victorious, this county will have a big reward!"
Gao Lan bowed and saluted:"Yes!"
The order spread immediately.
The soldiers were eager to try, without any fear.
As if!
For them, the Qiang and Hu soldiers in front of them were just some moving military merits.
After a while.
The Liangzhou infantry rushed to the city.
They lined up urgently and began to prepare for battle.
About half an hour.
Woo Woo Woo
Woo woo
The horns of the Liangzhou Qiang and Hu sounded.
In an instant, a large wave of Liangzhou soldiers came over like a tide.
"Kill"
"Take Yong County!"
"Charge, take Yong County!"
"......"
Wang Hao stood on the top of the city wall, his face calm and unperturbed.
Gao Lan, however, slowly raised his hand:
"Three-bow crossbow ready!"
"Wind up!"
Zhi Niang Niang
The bowstring was pulled into position.
The javelin-like crossbow arrows were stuck in the arrow slot.
Closer. Closer.
Closer.
Closer.......
When the three-bow crossbow reached its effective range,
Gao Lan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said without hesitation:
"Release the arrows!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of the bowstrings was like the sound of cannons.
The powerful force pushed the crossbow arrows, and they whistled out like meteors.
In the blink of an eye, they were right in front of them.
The Qiang and Hu soldiers had never encountered such long-range crossbows before.
Caught off guard , a wave of Qiang and Hu soldiers fell down like wheat being cut.
Wang Hao climbed up to a high place and looked far away, and he saw it very clearly.
Many crossbow arrows pierced two Qiang and Hu soldiers in a row, like piercing a candied haws, nailing them to the ground.
The visual impact of this scene was really shocking.
Just now, The Qiang and Hu soldiers who were yelling suddenly became mute, and their voices suddenly disappeared.
Most of the Qiang and Hu soldiers were frightened out of their wits by the arrow, and many of them turned around and left without any hesitation.
Some of them simply stood there in a daze, their feet felt like they were filled with lead, unable to move an inch, and their bodies were shaking like sieves.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
In an instant!
The sound of golden bells rang out.
The Qiang and Hu soldiers retreated like a tide again.
From the beginning of their attack to the sound of the bells to retreat, it was only a short period of more than ten breaths.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
"I won, I actually won!"
"Haha, I won just like that."
"The Qiang and Hu soldiers are not that powerful!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"......"
On the top of Yong County, all the soldiers cheered.
Many of them were locals in Yong County. In the past, they were beaten by Qiang and Hu invaders.
But today!
But now!
They haven't even started yet.
Just relying on a wave of three-bow crossbows, Qiang and Hu were frightened and retreated.
The remaining fear in the hearts of many people completely disappeared at this moment, replaced by the belief that they must win!
Wang Hao was a little disappointed and slapped his forehead:"It's careless."
If he had known that the first battle would be won so easily, what reward would he have promised!
Ding!
The offensive is fierce and intimidates the bandits.
Rewards: Intelligence +1; Command +1;
However......
Fortunately, I got 2 points of attributes.
It's not a big loss.
Wang Hao smiled faintly and said softly:
"High view!"
"The end will be"
"The first battle was a victory, and all soldiers will be rewarded with a large sum of money!"
"Thank you, my lord!"
"I'm afraid that's it for today. Send someone to keep a close eye on the bandits and report any news immediately."
"promise!"
