Chapter 30 Raid Camp
Under the city of Yangxu, it has been besieged by the army at this moment.

Zhao Zhi never imagined that the speed of the Shu army was so fast.

More than ten thousand armored soldiers formed a huge battle formation, standing majestically outside Yangxu City.

With banners covering the sun, the majesty of the Shu army was placed in front of the defenders of Yangxu City for the first time.

Standing on the city, Zhao Zhi in armor looked at the besieged Shu army below, his hands had already clenched into fists.

He knew he was out of play and shouldn't have suppressed the letter for help.

However, even if he didn't suppress the letter at this speed, the reinforcements might not be able to keep up.

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Zhi said to the soldiers beside him, "No matter what, we must keep Yangxu City!"

"To order..."

Even the defenders didn't have much confidence. After all, the defenders here saw such a huge Shu army for the first time.

"I'm going to ask the commander for help."

Saying that, he turned around and walked back to the pavilion quickly, and prepared two secret letters, one to send to Chu State and one to Zitong.

How does he know about military strategy?We can only stand firm and wait for the reinforcements from Chu State and the main force of Miaojiang.

Anxious Zhao Zhi paced back and forth in the court...

Since the last time I sent a letter to Chu State, Chu State has never heard back.

This is very different from the past.

The matter of Miaojiang is related to the great cause of entering Shu, how could the king of Chu not pay attention to it?
But the fact is that, even the ordnance that should have been delivered has disappeared.

An idea came to mind.

Could it be that Chu State... gave up entering Shu?
What about yourself?

I won't...be...abandoned...

As soon as this thought came up, Zhao Zhi shook his head and suppressed it.

how can that be possible?
This time he has no credit but hard work. No matter what he thinks, Chu State should protect him.

Besides, entering Shu is a major policy of the country, how can it be given up casually?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhi felt relieved a lot.

As long as Yangxu City can withstand the attack of the Shu army for a few days and reinforcements arrive, the siege of Yangxu City will be lifted.

However, what is strange is that the Shu army has been besieging the city all the time, but the siege troops are all small groups, and most of the Shu army just besieged and did not attack.

how so……

The starry night and the journey, the soldiers besieged Yangxu City, wasn't it to quickly take down Yangxu City?
After calming down, Zhao Zhi sat in front of the case, his brain was running extremely fast, he patted Yangxucheng with his fingers, and then patted Zitong.

why...

……

The mountains and rivers are in autumn, and the wind is biting.

Cheng Ping rode a war horse and looked in the direction of Zhenyuan with a complicated expression.

hard to imagine.

The third son who doesn't know the art of war is actually pretending.

Just to trick the rebels into advancing lightly, they were able to break through [-] with [-]!

When Cheng Ping heard the news, he thought that he was hallucinating because he was sick.

Cheng Ping didn't accept this fact until he repeatedly confirmed it with his father.

Soldiers who, deception also.

This young master was indeed cunning and scheming against people's hearts, and he himself was deceived all over the place.

Just imagine, if you were a rebel over there, you would also fall for it. This is what made Cheng Ping feel complicated.

The third son is just leading the army for the first time...

The first time I led troops, it was Qingqi with 300 people. That time, I almost died under the enemy's gun.

【Those who use strategy to transport troops are the enemy of ten thousand people...】

This is a sentence recorded in the Art of War, and Cheng Ping has been scoffing at it...

This time, he might really see...

After staying on the horse for a long time, Cheng Ping came back to his senses and turned to look at the thousand or so cavalry behind him.

He tightened his grip on the spear in his hand, opened his eyes, and there was nothing else in his eyes at the moment.

"set off!"

As the night was getting dark, Cheng Ping obeyed the military order and attacked the enemy camp with [-] elite cavalry.

Crucially, they knew the location of the rebel army's supplies.

In order to cooperate with Jiang Xubai, and also to clear his name, Cheng Ping planned this raid,

The key point of this attack on the camp was not his fine cavalry, but the infantry led by another general.

The enemy's food and supplies are all in Beishan, Cheng Ping's other cavalry entered from the east, and then quickly rushed out, so they must not love to fight.

His infantry took the opportunity to burn the rebel army's food and supplies...

Along the way, the checkpoints have been destroyed by scouts.

It has to be said that the checkpoints set up by the rebels are too amateurish, experienced scouts can tell at a glance.

Therefore, along the way, the two armies were not noticed by the rebels.

When the rebels found out, they only heard the sound of thunderous horseshoes, "rumbling", galloping towards them.

Although the cavalry led by Cheng Ping was small, they were all elite, and in order to maintain the impact, they all went into battle lightly, only carrying some fire and weapons.

So it can be seen that more than a thousand elite riders broke through the first line of defense of the rebel camp like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

At the same time, the alarm bells in the rebel camp were also sounded.

The rebels never thought that the defending Shu army would suddenly attack.

Maybe the general thought about it, but these soldiers didn't think about it.

They were still waiting for the news that Changjing had been taken down, but they never thought that the cavalry of the Shu army would come first.

"kill--"

The horse leapt forward, and Cheng Ping held a spear in his hand, and stabbed the rebel below, piercing his chest, and blood gushed out, staining the horse's body.

What followed was the iron hoof sweeping——

The so-called line of defense established by the rebels was so vulnerable to iron hooves.

In the final analysis, they had never fought tough battles with the Shu army at all, only a few sieges, and these few sieges were all defended by the Shu army, which created the illusion that the rebels were strong.

Many rebels don't even have armor, how can they withstand the impact of the Shu army?

More than a thousand fine cavalry, when facing unprepared infantry, even without armor, they displayed very powerful power.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Ping knew that the rebel army hadn't reacted yet, and maintaining speed was the most important thing now.

Thinking of igniting the fire he carried with him, he threw it at the rebel camp. The fire ignited, and he drove his horse towards the west.

Blood and flames can be seen everywhere in the rebel camp.

Faced with such a charge at the beginning, many unprepared rebels suddenly lost their fighting spirit.

Over time, however, the rebels have responded.

Cheng Ping obviously felt that he had been hindered. He knew that the reason for the smooth progress in front of him was nothing more than a surprise, and now he had to hurry up.

Seeing the rebel army in front of him formed an formation, he pierced a soldier with a single shot, then raised his arms with strength, and shouted: "I am Cheng Ping in Shuzhong!"

The sound was deafening. All the rebels saw this scene and were immediately terrified. The next moment, they saw Cheng Ping's iron hooves coming from behind...

Iron hooves stepped on, corpses were scattered all over the field, and flames shot up into the sky, only the blue banner of Miaojiang was fluttering in the wind.

A bit of flame danced and landed on the banner, the flame spread, and gradually the blue banner was reduced to ashes in the flames...

In the distance, iron hooves, blood, flames...

Nearby, but a handful of loess...
