Invincible son

Chapter 823 822 [The Disappearing Cavalry]

Inside the Yangchun Gate.

More than half of the more than [-] Southern Zhou imperial guards suffered casualties, but they still did not completely lose their fighting spirit.

They had already made up their minds to die, and they thought they could last for a while until their own brigade arrived.As long as they can guard Yangchun Gate, breaking the city will be a matter of course.

In the past ten years, the Zhou army attacked Jiangling City several times, but because they could not cut off the support of the Liang army on the north bank of the river, coupled with the strong defense of the city, and the defenders were the elite of the Liang army, they returned without success every time.If not, Emperor Qingyuan, Xu Huiyan and Fang Xiexiao would not have woven such a situation, and even used Princess Qinghe and Xu Churong to dispel Pei Yue's doubts.

However, Pei Yue was not fooled.

The Imperial Guards of the Southern Zhou Dynasty also did not expect that they would face elite cavalry who used the wide main street in the city to increase their speed to the extreme. block.

Each of them is very good at fighting with weapons, but who would have thought that there was a cavalry hidden in Jiangling City, which had only infantry for more than ten years?
Being able to survive less than half of the people has actually proved the strength of these guards.

It's just that what they have to face next is a more brutal strangulation.

After the cavalry rushed out of the city, the young general standing between Feng Yi and Gai Ju raised his hand to give the order, and then hundreds of sharp soldiers strode to the city gate, each holding a card in their hands. A kicking crossbow with a breath of death.

The imperial guards were all frightened when they saw this scene. Although they wore soft armor under their clothes, this kind of crossbow chain armor could easily shoot through it!

There is no way to retreat, so you can only bite the bullet and rush forward.

At this moment, the young general shouted coldly: "Shoot the arrow!"

Countless cold lights penetrated the air near the city gate, and the Southern Zhou guards who rushed over fell to the ground one after another. No matter how good their martial arts were, they would definitely not be opponents of crossbow arrows in such a short distance, unless they could reach the target of Ye Qi or Gu Fan. realm.

They thought it would be a fierce hand-to-hand battle, which would end in their own victory, but Liang Jun didn't want to fight with them at all. Let Pei Yue's personal soldiers come forward to finish.

In less than a moment, the defenders regained control of the Yangchun Gate. As the gate was firmly closed, Feng Yi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He strode up to the young general, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the city The enemy has been eliminated!"

This military general is Gu Liang's confidant general, Li Jin, the son of Yanshan who had a lifelong friendship with Pei Yue, stepped forward and slapped Feng Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "If you don't dislike it, just call me big brother, where is it?" These cheesy titles."

Of course Feng Yi did not dare to be on par with Pei Yue, and said a little cautiously: "Thank you for your appreciation, General, I dare not be rude."

Li Jin didn't forcefully change his address, and it's not the time to reminisce about the past, he said gently: "You take Brother Yue's personal soldiers over there, there are two noble women who need to be taken care of over there. Remember not to let people run into them."

"Yes, General."

Feng Yi responded respectfully, while Li Jin turned and walked towards the steps of the city wall.

……

While shooting and killing the Imperial Guards of the Southern Zhou Dynasty in the city, an amazing scene appeared on the flat land outside the city.

Facing the frontal impact of the Beiwei camp, the well-ordered Jinwu Guard cavalry was pierced through instantly like a piece of fresh tofu or a thin piece of paper.This situation is like two top masters in a duel, there is no extra nonsense and fancy moves, only the decisiveness of one sword to seal the throat, and the sharpness of ten steps and one kill.

There were figures, horses neighing, and the soldiers of the back Wei battalion covering each other, sophistication and ruthlessness.

In comparison, although the cavalry of the Jinwu Guard didn't look bad, most of them were a little nervous and couldn't show their full strength in this kind of hand-to-hand combat with no room for retreat.

The two sides crisscrossed and passed, and the winner was divided in an instant.

I don't know what Emperor Qing Yuan and Fang Xiexiao would think when they saw this scene, but after Xia Fei resisted Pei Yue's sword and almost lost his grip on the spear, he turned his head and looked at the messy formation and couldn't help but feel panic and panic.

The Jinwu Guards in the Southern Zhou Dynasty were equivalent to the Forbidden Army in Daliang. They were all the core elite guarding the imperial city. Most of the infantry had the experience of rotating in the frontier army.As for the thousand cavalry, they were the brave men that Emperor Qingyuan ordered Xia Fei to train. Since the cavalry in the Southern Zhou Dynasty had always been scarce, they naturally placed high hopes on them. The task assigned this time was to hold back Pei Yue's Beiwei battalion.

Xia Fei was full of confidence, but he overlooked a key point. For a cavalry, it is very important whether they have experienced a real battle on the battlefield.

After all, what he was facing was not ordinary cavalry, but the most powerful Beiwei Battalion under Pei Yue's command.

Although there were only 1000 people on the other side, they were old soldiers carefully selected by Pei Yue from the Tibetan front guards. The Tibetan front guards could even defeat the Western Wu iron cavalry.

In this lightning-fast confrontation, nearly a hundred Jinwu Guard cavalrymen were killed or injured, while only a few people from the Beiwei Battalion were killed and more than ten people were slightly injured.

On the top of Jiangling City, the partial general couldn't help admiring: "The cavalry under the Marquis of Zhongshan are so powerful."

Baoding Uncle Cai Qian said indifferently: "You can be crowned as a first-class marquis at a young age, so how can he be a man with a vain reputation?"

He turned his head to look at the overall situation outside the city, and turned his eyes to the other two cavalry in the Southern Zhou Dynasty.

For Langtu Camp and Dingshan Camp, the former is led by Fang Xiexiao's confidant, while the latter is led by his second son, which can be said to be the only family property among the cavalry of the Southern Army.Judging from the trajectories of the two cavalry, they had no intention of supporting the Jinwu Guard from the beginning, but rushed straight towards the Yangchun Gate.

Pian Jiang said with emotion: "Nan Zhou has put in all his efforts this time. If Marquis Zhongshan hadn't discovered the flaw in advance, they might really have caught the opportunity."

After he finished these words, the sound of passionate and high-pitched drums sounded from the sky.

The east, west, and south sides of Jiangling City are large flat open lands. The east and west sides are about twelve or three miles long, and the south side is more than twenty miles long.Looking in the direction of the sound of the drum to the south, the figures of the soldiers of the brigade had already appeared.

That was obviously the main force of the Southern Zhou army.

Cai Qian said in a deep voice, "Send the order to meet the enemy."

In fact, it is not complicated for the defenders of Jiangling City, because what they have to do every day for more than ten years is to practice defending the city, and everything is very proficient. As long as the gates below can Closed in time, they will have the confidence to repel the Zhou army's attack.

Cai Qian looked at the two cavalry from the Southern Zhou Dynasty approaching quickly under the city, and estimated in his mind when they would arrive.

At this moment, a change happened below that made his expression change suddenly.
