Chapter 453: Bielonggang
Although Mo Yuanji was skeptical about whether the barbarians had crossed the Hei Demon to fight the Wei Kingdom, the barbarians could no longer find it at this time. It was indeed an indisputable fact. Therefore, Mo Yuanji, who had originally planned to collude with the barbarians, obviously this path would not work.
However, this is obviously not a big problem for Mo Yuanji now, because the news of Xiao Yan's army seizing Yanyang County in Zheng State had already reached him. With them restraining the troops of the Great Zhou, even if there were no barbarians, he would not be unable to take action.
Mo Yuanji, who thought this was his last chance, resolutely decided to send troops to the capital after careful consideration. Xiao Yan's troops fought from east to west, while he fought from north to south. Both targets were both capital, but the slogan Mo Yuanji played was to resist Zheng State.
In this way, he, who was also planning to rebel, seemed very high-sounding when he spoke it out.
But no matter how high-sounding the reason was, it could not conceal his ambitions. After he decided to send troops from Dingzhou, the capital had already received news of his rebellion.
However, Mo Zizai is no longer in the capital at this time.
At the speed of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry and the steam train transfer, they only took more than a day to return to the capital from Guangling City. After a day of rest and replenishing the military equipment of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, Mo Zizai took them immediately to set off to intercept Xiao Yanbing's army.
"Prince, based on the information sent back yesterday, Xiao Yanbing's army will be able to arrive at us in one day at most."
Yang Yanzhang held a map in his hand, and in his heart, based on the speed of Xiao Yan's army's advance, he gave roughly the time for them to meet. Then he said, "So, I suggest that our army stay here to rest and wait for them to come. Then we wait for the work, and the soldiers will not be so tired."
"good."
Mo Zizai nodded very simply. Yang Yanzhang was an expert in war. He said that he would fight wherever he wanted. Even if Mo Zizai had an absolute advantage in his hands, he never commanded blindly in this regard. At most, he would just occasionally express his opinions.
Now that he heard Yang Yanzhang set the battlefield here, he agreed, took a look on the map, and then said, "Fulonggang, this place name is good."
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but in short, the name of the decisive battle place chosen by Yang Yanzhang made Mo Zizai feel a very mysterious feeling.
After hearing Mo Zizai say this, Yang Yanzhang couldn't help but be stunned. Although the terrain was indeed carefully selected by him, he chose this place to pay full attention to the fertile land here. There were neither towns nor dense forests around him, so he could only exert the maneuverability of their cavalry to the greatest extent.
As for the name, he didn't really think about it.
At this time, when Mo Zizai said this, Yang Yanzhang suddenly felt a little inappropriate. After all, Xiao Yanbing was just a duke and was not considered a dragon at all. Mo Zizai was the real controller of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If you want to say the dragon, he was the real dragon.
Therefore, at this moment, if you really want to tie the dragon, who will tie it up, it will naturally be self-evident.
"Prince, why don't you change the place?"
After hesitating for a moment in his heart, Yang Yanzhang persuaded: "There are also plains with a relatively suitable terrain behind. Why don't we rush over overnight? At our speed, we can arrive at half a day at most."
“No need.”
Mo Zizai waved his hand and said without caring: "It's just a dragon. I just said it's a dragon, but I didn't say it's a person."
"As one of the double walls of Zheng State, Xiao Yanbing fought with my father in the East for so long. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a dragon. So, in our Longgang, we will tie him here this time, the dragon crossing the river."
"this……"
Yang Yanzhang felt that Mo Zizai's reason was a bit far-fetched. When he wanted to persuade him, he was interrupted by Mo Zizai.
"Okay, it's okay. If this little thing is not worth it, let the soldiers run around overnight."
Mo Zizai laughed and said, "What's more, it's just a place name, so you can win a prize. The real key is to rely on your strength."
"You can't even have confidence in the Red Flame Dragon Knight you brought out with you."
“Yes, but…”
Yang Yanzhang smiled bitterly, not knowing how to answer Mo Zizai. The reason why he was so worried was mainly because Mo Zizai was here, and his safety was too important to the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he could not help but be careful.
If not, let alone this place is called Fulonggang, even if it is called Fuyang Yanzhanggang, he would dare to set the place for the decisive battle here.
Mo Zizai also knew Yang Yanzhang's concerns, so he looked at his helpless expression and comforted him: "Don't worry, in addition to the Red Flame Dragon Knight, we also have the Divine Bow Camp."
"Xiao Yan's army only has 20,000 people. If the two armies join forces, he will definitely not be the opponent."
"What's more, if you take a step back, even if you really lose, we are cavalry, just turn your head and run away. I don't believe they can catch up with the Red Blood Dragon Conquer."
"This...well."
Yang Yanzhang really didn't know how to refute what Mo Zizai said. In addition, there were two masters in the Golden Body Realm around Mo Zizai. Even if there was something really unexpected, with their strength, there would be no problem in covering Mo Zizai's retreat. Therefore, when he saw that he was unable to persuade him, he stopped insisting.
"The army is stationed on the spot and ready to rest."
Yang Yanzhang turned around and began to order at the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, "In addition, send twice the scout team to double the exploration range, and once any abnormality is found, the arrow will be sounded immediately!"
"Here!"
After responding, the soldiers of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry responded and immediately began to act in an orderly manner. After giving instructions to them, Yang Yanzhang went to the Divine Bow Camp to meet Du Yu in person.
The entire camp followed the Divine Bow Camp, and the thirty-six people were all over two meters tall. Yang Yanzhang, who rushed to talk about the matter, stood among them like a child.
However, although his figure was much lower than them, Yang Yanzhang's aura was not at all inferior. He bowed to Du Yu, and then said straight to the point: "General Du, you may have to work harder tonight."
"Your eyes are the best, so I need you to come up with three groups of people and keep a three-way perspective. In each group, there must be at least one archer holding a death whistle. If something happens, you can warn you as soon as possible. Can you do it?"
“There is no problem with this.”
After bowing his hand and returning the bow, Du Yu nodded and agreed to the matter. However, he asked in his heart a little confused, "But, General Yang, Xiao Yanbing is still far from us. Do we need to be so cautious?"
“It’s necessary.”
Yang Yanzhang nodded seriously. He was so cautious not only because of this place name, but also because of Xiao Yanbing's reputation.
As a person who has been in the East for more than ten years with Mo Congyi, Yang Yanzhang felt that no matter how careful he was, he could not be an exaggeration.
Although Du Yu felt that Yang Yanzhang was too cautious, there was nothing big mistake to be careful after all. Moreover, they had 36 people, and they could work in three or even four shifts, so this matter was not very hard for them, so he nodded silently and didn't say anything.
After arranging these, Yang Yanzhang was still a little worried, so he specially sent a team of Red Flame Dragon Cavalry to set off overnight to Xiao Yanbing, and let them stare at Xiao Yanbing's army from afar. If there is any abnormal movement, they will repay it as soon as possible.
...
On Xiao Yanbing's side, he also learned that Mo Zizai had already rushed over with the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry to stop them.
"Red Flame Dragon Knight."
Xiao Yanbing was muttering about this cavalry, and at the same time he felt a little tricky. He didn't expect that the so-called steam train that Mo Zizai had compiled would be so useful. In just one day, the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry far away in Guangling City returned to the capital.
Now, this famous cavalry came directly to intercept him, making him, who had originally planned to attack the capital, feel a little troublesome.
Fortunately, he arrived, thankfully, this cavalry did not choose to stay in the capital or cooperate with other troops to intercept him. Otherwise, he would not have to fight. It would be better to go back to attack Zhang Yuan in the East.
"Five thousand...5 thousand..."
Xiao Yanbing thought about it in his heart, but finally decided in his heart that he would forcefully eat the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry. After all, he had the advantage of 20,000 to 5,000.
Moreover, the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry is a cavalry, but the Guard Army under his command is not an ordinary infantry. If he really wants to face it, even if the infantry under his command is not necessarily weaker than the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry. With the advantage of the number of people, it should not be a big problem to eat this Red Flame Dragon Cavalry.
Although the Guard Army will definitely be damaged in this battle, according to the information he received, Mo Zizai is also in this Red Flame Dragon Cavalry. As long as he finds a way to capture Mo Zizai, it will be worth it even if the Guard Army pays a lot of casualties.
"Xiao Chong, map."
Xiao Yanbing took the map from Xiao Chong, then checked the terrain along the way, and estimated the speed of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry in his heart. Finally, he turned his attention to Longgang.
The terrain here is wide, and according to the marching speed of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, it is most suitable for the opponent's general to set the decisive battle location here.
After all, the terrain here is wide and there are few covers. If he has a cavalry in his hand, he will probably choose to station here.
"Bailonggang,Bailonggang..."
Like Mo Zizai, Xiao Yanbing also noticed the place name at this time. After chanting it twice, he couldn't help but laugh, "This place is good. Before he could fight, he wrote down Mo Zizai's fate."
In his heart, he was already planning to capture Mo Zizai alive, but when he saw this place name again, it immediately made him feel that it was God's will.
"Since that's the case, then Mo Zizai's evil dragon, I will be disrespectful."
After saying that, Xiao Yanbing said, "Xiao Chong, immediately send someone to investigate the situation in Fulonggang. In addition, inform the army to accelerate the march. I will arrive at Fulonggang before midnight."
"Here!"
Xiao Chong responded, and just as he was about to go down to make arrangements, a general came to report on the military situation. "General, a bunch of cavalry appeared in front of us, working about fifty people, just three miles away."
"cavalry?"
Xiao Yanbing couldn't help but frowned slightly when he heard this. This was a little wrong. Why did the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry come so quickly?
He was confused in his heart and asked, "Are there only these fifty riders? Is there any movement behind him?"
"When the general returned, he found no movement, and the spies along the way did not issue any warning."
Xiao Yan's army has rich combat experience and is skilled in a skilled manner. The scouts he sent were all centered on the army and scattered forward in a fan-shaped shape. The farthest horse exploration can even be 10 or 20 miles away. Therefore, if there is a large army ahead, his horse exploration will not be able to be discovered.
Therefore, after hearing this, Xiao Yanbing pondered for a while, and immediately understood Yang Yanzhang's intention, "So he is here to stare at us."
Xiao Yanbing thought for a while, then asked, "Is there a way to keep them?"
"No, these soldiers are hanging far away and not getting close at all."
The general shook his head in a little embarrassed manner and replied, "I have sent someone to try it, and I can't catch up at all."
"And those cavalrymen didn't know what kind of horses they were. They were too fast. Even if they set up traps, they would be escaped without time to join the encirclement."
In order to pursue speed, the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry sent by Yang Yanzhang removed all the heavy armor and went into battle lightly. Therefore, the Red Blood Dragon Cavalry, which had no burden, could exert their maximum speed. With these guardian troops, it would be difficult to even get close.
"Since that's the case, don't worry about them."
After hearing what his generals said, Xiao Yanbing couldn't help but shook his head with regret. Since the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry general sent someone to follow him, it proved that he attached great importance to him and also showed that he was very cautious in marching. If this was the case, even if this team of cavalry did not stare at him, it would be unlikely that he would catch the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry by increasing the marching speed.
"Xiao Chong, don't let the army speed up, just let them march normally."
Since there is no raid, there is no need to march in a hurry. After Xiao Yanbing changed his order just now, he said, "Today, we will march for another fifty miles, and then camp directly on the spot to let the soldiers have a good rest."
"Before noon tomorrow, we will arrive at Fulonggang. At that time, we will fight to the death with the cavalry on the front battlefield."
Although he could not take any tricks, Xiao Yanbing was not afraid at all. In terms of commanding ability in frontal combat, except Mo Congyi, he had never been afraid of anyone.
"Here!"
Xiao Chong responded and quickly passed Xiao Yan's order to the army.
After a night of rest, early the next morning, the Guard Army marched at normal speed and finally arrived at Fulonggang before noon.
Chapter completed!
