Chapter 366 Revisiting the Old Place
Hedong County, Wenxi County.
Zhang Ja led 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard, galloped all the way for hundreds of miles, and entered Wenxi County from Taiyuan County first.
"Captain Xu, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Xu Huang's dazed look, Zhang Jai couldn't help laughing.
"Ah? Haha, it made General Zhang laugh, but it's just a revisit of the old place, which is quite emotional."
Xu Huang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly at Zhang Jaw.
"Oh, I forgot, Colonel Xu was originally born in Hedong County, and now he is promoted to Colonel Gao to serve Liu Cheqi, so it should be regarded as a return to his hometown, right?" Zhang Jai laughed.
Xu Huang nodded with emotion: "In the past, XX was just a small county captain, and later he devoted himself to serving as a thief, but now he has become a school captain with thousands of troops. It really makes people feel emotional."
Zhang Jai smiled and patted Xu Huang on the shoulder: "Don't worry, work hard with General Cheqi. Enlightenment is only in the palm of your hand."
Xu Huang said modestly: "Thank you, General Zhang, for your consideration."
"You don't have to be so unfamiliar, you and I are almost the same, I just fought a few more battles with the chariot general. If Gong Ming doesn't dislike it, how do you and I match each other?" Zhang Jai said sincerely.
Xu Huang cupped his hands: "General Zhang has done a lot of hard work, how dare the last general?"
"Could it be that Gongming looks down on me and doesn't bother to call me a brother?" Zhang Jaw feigned anger.
"How dare you, Brother Juan?" Xu Huang smiled wryly.
Zhang Jah laughed loudly: "That's right."
At this time, a scout rushed over and shouted: "General Zhang, Colonel Xu, and Sun Qing are leading the bandit army to besiege Wenxi County. .”
Zhang Jaw's expression changed: "Gongming, it's not too late, you and I should lead our troops there quickly to prevent Sun Qing from taking Wenxi County."
Xu Huang cupped his hands and said seriously: "I will follow General Zhang's orders."
"Kill! Whoever reaches the top of the wall first will be rewarded heavily by Sun Shuai."
"Let the arrow!"
"Roll wood and stone, drive all the enemy troops down, you, my wife, children and elders are all in the city, you must not let these Black Mountain bandits enter the city."
The small Wenxi county town is only more than two feet high, and the Black Mountain army is crowded in all directions. A tragic offensive and defensive battle unfolded around this small county town, and the sound of people shouting and neighing came and went.
Thousands of Heishan army infantry carried the ladder, roared and rushed forward, put the ladder on the top of the city, and then climbed up with leather shields and ring swords in their hands, shouting.
And under the city head, there are also thousands of Black Mountain Army archers, arranged in formation, releasing a dense rain of arrows with strong bows and crossbows, suppressing the guards of Wenxi County above the city head, Wenxi County The defenders had no choice but to bury their bodies behind the low female wall, and wait until the Black Mountain Army infantry attacked the top of the city, and then rushed forward with swords and shields in hand, and started a hand-to-hand fight with the Black Mountain Army who had climbed to the top of the city.
Wenxi County is a small county town, with no more than 10,000 residents. Even if the county magistrate temporarily mobilizes the young and strong, the guards on the top of the city are only more than 3,000, and the number of Black Mountain Army is the number of defenders at the top of the city. several times as much.
Under the city, the Black Mountain Army's 10,000-strong Chinese army remained unmoved, flying a Sun Zishuai flag.
"In less than half an hour, Wenxi County will be captured, and then you can loot the county at will." Sun Qing said loudly.
After hearing Sun Qing's words, more than ten thousand Black Mountain troops were overjoyed.
"Shuai Sun is wise!"
"Support Sun Shuai, oh ho!"
Sun Qing couldn't help but smile when he heard tens of thousands of soldiers shouting and embracing. Many of the 20,000 Black Mountain Army brought here this time were not directly related to him, but as long as they give some benefits, there must be thousands of soldiers. The rest of the people joined him, so his position in the Black Mountain Army would naturally be more stable and unshakable.
Suddenly, Sun Qing's ears moved slightly, and his expression froze.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, Sun Qing suddenly jumped off the horse and put his face directly on the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was as if a drumstick was beating a war drum, and the sky thunder was shaking the earth. The heavy and chaotic sound entered Sun Qing's ears from the earth, and his complexion changed drastically.
"Cavalry!" Sun Qing raised her head, gritted her teeth, and clenched her fists.
Although there is a lack of war horses in the Black Mountain Army, a young commander like Sun Qing, as Zhang Yan's confidant, can naturally have war horses. Sun Qing also painstakingly organized a cavalry unit of more than a thousand people. and brought it out.
But this time the number of enemy troops seems to be far more than a thousand.
Before he had time to think about it, Sun Qing shouted immediately.
"Form the formation, form the formation, form the whole army!"
Sun Qing yelled like a madman, tens of thousands of Black Mountain soldiers looked at Sun Qing, their brains were a little bit confused.
Sun Qing took a deep breath: "There is a large group of cavalry coming, and the whole army is in formation."
Whoooo!
The desolate and simple sound of ox horns sounded suddenly from the northeast direction, and the sound of horseshoes kicking sky-shattering sounded, and gradually amplified, as if a giant beast was approaching from far to near, with great momentum.
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of Black Mountain troops, countless iron cavalry were coming towards them. The knights on horseback brandished their sabers, their faces were ferocious, like dark clouds sweeping across the land and turbulent waves sweeping across the coast, they rushed towards the Black Mountain Army quickly. Come, the momentum is almost irresistible, and the momentum is surging.
open!
Xu!
Surrounding the yellow unicorn battle flag representing the Han army, there are two general flags, representing Zhang Jaw and Xu Huang respectively.
"General Zhang, you are in the middle commanding, how about someone personally leading the cavalry into the battle?"
Holding a big axe in his hand, Xu Huang asked Zhang Jaw.
Zhang Jaw laughed loudly: "Gongming, do you think that you will not dare to lead the army to the battle after becoming a general?"
"The five thousand cavalry are divided into two groups. You and I will each lead one, and charge into the enemy army from left and right, how about seeing who takes down Sun Qing's head first?" Zhang Jaw said proudly.
Xu Huang laughed loudly and said, "In that case, the last general will have to compete with General Zhang for the victory of killing the general and capturing the flag!"
"Hahaha, let's see who can kill Sun Qing and capture the general flag!"
Zhang Jai let out a loud roar, holding a spear in his hand, and half of the five thousand cavalry followed closely behind Zhang Jai, attacking Sun Qing's troops from the left.
Not to be outdone, Xu Huang shouted: "Listen up, gentlemen, if a certain beheads Sun Qing, I will use this year's salary to treat you brothers to drink!"
More than two thousand cavalry cheered like thunder: "Slay Sun Qing!"
kill!
Under the leadership of Xu Huang, more than two thousand cavalry aimed at Sun Qingbu from the right and charged away, which happened to be symmetrical with Zhang Jaw's left and right.
A total of 5,000 cavalry from the two armies galloped forward, like thunder falling on the ground, the sound of horseshoes roared endlessly, and yellow smoke and dust swept across the ground. The tens of thousands of Black Mountain troops were stunned and forgot to move.
