Chapter 532: Speed ​​is of the essence [Subscribe*Monthly Tickets]

"Wuwei County, Dugu clan?"

Yang Duanhe also reacted quickly.

The best military operation is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their soldiers, and the worst is to attack their cities. Attacking cities is a last resort.

Attacking a city has never been the first choice of politicians, and it is also something that all generals both want and don't want to do.

“But before that, let’s take over Dugu Longcheng first.” Yan Yan nodded with a smile.

If Dugu Ming knew that Dugu Longcheng was not in their hands, he might have made other small moves.

"General Yang, would you like to see the true combat power of the Yulin Guards?" Yan Yan turned and looked at Yang Duanhe.

"What you wish for."

Yang Duanhe knew very well that Yan Yan was trying to intimidate the Qin State and deliberately show off his muscles.

And he really wanted to know the specific combat capabilities of the Yulin Guards.

After all, observations from training alone do not represent true combat effectiveness.

Yan Yan walked back to the central army tent, and the drum for calling on the generals was soon struck to gather the troops and call on the generals.

When the sound of the drum was heard, the Yulin Guards also began to move, causing chaos in Wuwei City, as people feared that Bingzhou had begun to attack the city.

King Xiutu, Yanshi, and Dugu Ming also rushed to the top of the city wall as soon as possible and looked at the crowds of people outside the city and the flags flying like dragons.

King Xiutu and Yanshi looked extremely unhappy. They were still waiting for King Hunxie's help and Dayuezhi's reply, and did not want to start a war with Bingzhou so soon.

Only Dugu Ming was a little confused. With such a big undercover agent like him, if Bingzhou attacked the city, they would definitely contact him first and ask him to cooperate.

Therefore, Dugu Ming did not think that Bingzhou was gathering troops to attack Wuwei City at this time. It was very likely that some uncontrollable factors occurred outside the city, causing Bingzhou to suddenly gather troops.

However, Wuwei City was under siege and they could not obtain any useful intelligence or information at all.

"See you, Your Majesty!"

Below the reviewing platform and under the central army's banner, all officers and soldiers knelt on one knee and saluted, looking at the man in red armor on the stage with fiery eyes.

"Stand up!" Yan Yan stretched out his hands, signaling everyone to stand up.

In unison, all the soldiers stood up straight, hoping to be noticed by the king.

"There's a little bug that's been jumping around for too long!" Yan Yan's voice came out slowly.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The first reaction of all the soldiers was to kill him.

If a small insect dares to bother His Majesty, it will die.

Yang Duanhe and the officers from Qin State all had slightly changed expressions, and they could tell the whole situation from just one small part.

The Bingzhou army had too much admiration for King Bing.

Bing Jun’s prestige in Bingzhou is too high.

As long as it is Bingjun's words, everyone will resolutely carry them out.

This kind of cohesion is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

Yang Duanhe had only seen this on Wu'an Jun, and at that time, he was also one of the soldiers shouting slogans below.

"General Dian Qing!" Yan Yan stretched out his hand to suppress all the sounds and spoke slowly.

"I am here!" Dian Qing walked out, bowed and saluted.

"I order you to lead the four battalions of Yueqi, Huqi, Shesheng and Huben to Moya and capture Dugu Longcheng alive." Yan Yan did not send out all the Yulin Guards, but only four of the eight schools of Yulin.

"Yes!" Dian Qing took the order, walked down from the reviewing platform, then rode his horse and galloped through the camp of Yulin Guards. Four of the seven camps followed closely behind him, and instantly set out and left the camp.

Yan Yan continued to issue military orders one after another, and began to arrange the deployment and defense before the siege.

Wuwei City is connected to both sides of the Qilian Mountains, so it only has two gates, front and back. If you want to attack, the only way is to attack from the front.

Yang Duanhe, Qiang Wei and other Qin generals formed an observation group and followed Dian Qing to Moya to watch the first battle since the establishment of the Yulin Guard.

Under the cliff, Dugu Longcheng was still waiting for Bingzhou's action.

They knew that the Bingzhou army had arrived, but they did not react at all.

They are waiting, waiting for an opportunity to fight or escape.

Before the main army arrived, three thousand cavalrymen had already landed beside them, stationed there and stared at them.

However, Dugu Longcheng did not want to offend Bingzhou, so he turned a blind eye and would not have any friction with it.

However, Dugu Longcheng would never have thought that Bingzhou would attack him directly after the army arrived and had just rested.

In particular, Dugu Longcheng’s idea is, I have given way to you, released enough goodwill, and will not cause you any obstacles. You can't still want to fight me, right?
Dian Qing led the four battalions of the Yulin Guards and marched rapidly towards the cliff.

No one, including Yang Duanhe, had ever thought that the Yulin Guards would march like this.

As the archer and infantry battalions, the soldiers of these two battalions directly merged with the Yueqi Battalion and the Huqi Battalion the moment they left the camp, and turned over and sat behind the cavalry of the Yueqi and Huqi Battalions.

The Hu cavalry and Yue cavalry seemed to have gotten used to it and would stop in front of the camp gate and wait for them to get on the vehicles as soon as they left the camp.

Except for the charioteers of the Huben Camp who drove their own chariots, the other soldiers of the Huben Camp were led directly to the battlefield by the knights of the two cavalry camps.

As for the heavy armor of the Huben Camp soldiers, it was thrown onto the chariots, which then helped pull them to the front line of the battlefield.

Baggage and food?

Your Majesty said that it was just to kill a bug, so why do we need to bring food and fodder?
If we go now, we can be back in the afternoon, the only thing we will miss is lunch.

"The marching method of the Yulin Guards..." Yang Duanhe's mouth twitched. He had thought of many methods, but he had never thought it would be this way.

The war horses of the Yue and Hu cavalry can carry two people to the battlefield at a time. How much endurance do they still have when they actually arrive at the battlefield?

However, Dian Qing seemed to be unaware that this would consume the endurance of the warhorse, and he continued to march towards the cliff with the four battalions of soldiers as he pleased.

When they were still ten miles away from the cliff, the second chariot of Shesheng Battalion waved his hand to signal the soldiers to dismount.

The soldiers of Shesheng Camp also jumped off their horses one after another, which did not affect the progress of the Yue cavalry at all.

Everything was in good order. Most importantly, the soldiers at the back were able to avoid the soldiers from the Shesheng Camp who had temporarily dismounted, and continued to move forward without stopping at all.

Soon after, the Hu Cavalry Camp also dropped the soldiers of the Huben Camp and continued to move forward.

Less than a moment after the soldiers of the Huben Camp dismounted, the chariot soldiers of the Huben Camp also arrived at where the soldiers of the Huben Camp were, began to distribute equipment, put on armor, and continued to move forward.

The whole process was extremely smooth, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

"Terrible mobility." Yang Duanhe and others who followed behind had to admit that with this kind of mobility, no one could be a match for the Yulin Guards in close combat.

In particular, the soldiers of Shesheng Camp and Huben Camp were not doing their jobs properly but were also good at riding. Every one of them could jump off a galloping horse without affecting the cavalry's continued progress.

By the time the Huben Battalion had finished their battle formation in armor, all the members of the Shesheng Battalion had already arrived not far behind them on foot.

Not long after the Shesheng Battalion arrived, the Huben Battalion also continued to advance.

"What the hell?" Dugu Longcheng was dumbfounded when he saw the two cavalrymen suddenly appearing.

It's too fast.

By the time they discovered the Yue cavalry and the Hu cavalry, the Yue cavalry had already bypassed them and cut in front of their retreat. Once they retreated, they would clash with the Yue cavalry at some point, or even be directly stopped and cut off by the Yue cavalry.
