Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 422: Going straight in

Qingfengkou. read

Chang Wei looked back at the bastion behind him, smiled brightly, and led his troops north.

Passing the Qingfengkou Mountain Road, he will go to the grassland to attack the Black Iron King Zhang, accompanied by Lu Chang, Qin Shan and Wei Qun.

They have 2,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry under their command, plus Zhongli and Chen Hu's 8,000 cavalry who are heading to the grassland. This is the total of 40,000 troops guarding the fortress.

However, King Yan allocated another 5,000 chariots to them, which was another 5,000 troops, bringing the total number of troops dispatched this time to 45,000.

In the Battle of Qiu Shou, the Black Iron King lost nearly 30,000 Beidi cavalry.

These cavalry are not servants acting as human shields, but actual Beidi soldiers.

In the Battle of Yanguan, the Black Iron King's account lost a total of 70,000 people, of which only 40,000 were servants, and the rest were real Beidi soldiers.

After suffering huge losses twice, the Black Iron King's tent is no longer what it used to be.

Although the number of soldiers was made up by recruiting servants, in Chang Wei's view, the Black Iron King's tent was just puffy.

Even if the young men from Beidi under the king's command were recruited, the number of real Beidi cavalry would not exceed 50,000.

In the Battle of Qingfengkou, the Black Iron King's army of servants was almost wiped out.

Entering the grassland this time, their real opponent will be the less than 50,000 Beidi cavalry.

The army he commanded was equipped with flintlocks, mortars, and chariot support, and the number was almost the same as that of the Black Iron King's tent. If he could not achieve a good record, he would have no shame in returning to the four northern counties.

After more than a day's march.

Chang Wei arrived at the grassland in the evening of the next day.

At this time, he immediately ordered the chariots to march on the outside and the infantry on the inside.

The grassland in front of him was endless and flat, which was simply the most favorable terrain for the cavalry.

If they are suddenly attacked by cavalry and unable to organize their formation in time, the fate of these infantrymen will be extremely miserable.

When the chariots march on both sides, it means that the army has moving horses, which can block the cavalry on the outside of the chariot and give the soldiers on the inside time to form their formation.

When all the troops entered the grassland from Yanshan Road, the sky was completely dark.

Chang Wei ordered the chariots to form circular formations, and the soldiers camped in the circular formations to rest and prepare meals.

The Black Iron King's Tent.

As soon as Chang Wei led the army from Qingfengkou, Beidi scouts kept a close eye on it. After King Yan's army arrived at the grassland, Enke also got the news immediately.

"The King of Yan is really arrogant. He dared to let his troops march straight from Yanshan Mountain to attack my Black Iron King's tent. He seems to have forgotten that on the grassland, the cavalry is invincible." Enke sat in the king's tent and listened to the scout's report. After hearing the news that King Yan's army was encamped two hundred miles away from the king's tent, he picked up the wine cup made of skulls and drank the wine in one gulp.

This wine glass belonged to his father. When he captured Ningjin Dusi, in order to avenge the death of Lang Lu, his father personally killed the Jincheng guard and made his skull into a wine glass.

"Chang Wei!" Thinking of this, he stared at the skull wine glass in his hand. This honor belonged to his father after all.

This time he wanted to make a skull wine cup by himself. For him, the head of King Yan's first general was very suitable for his wine cup.

Just remembering that the King of Yan's cavalry that had been rampaging on the grassland for the past two days had not yet been wiped out, he felt agitated again.

What annoyed him was that he really couldn't understand how these King Yan's cavalry could evade pursuit.

"Give the wolves an order to leave five thousand cavalry to surround and exterminate the rats. Everyone else is coming back. It's time for revenge." Enke shouted.

The fortress at Qingfengkou was the advantage of King Yan.

The flat grassland is their advantage in Beidi. Here, they cannot lose.

For him, 20,000 Beidi cavalry can crush this large infantry into powder, but to be on the safe side, he will mobilize 45,000 cavalry this time.

As long as the Yan King's soldiers and horses that broke into the grassland were eliminated, his failure at Qingfengkou would no longer mean anything.

Taking advantage of the victory, he could even lead the cavalry into Yan County.

"King Yan, King Yan, are you dazzled by the victory? Hahaha, but just in time, I will definitely be able to complete the task assigned to me by Khan this time." Thinking of this, Enke burst into laughter.

Amid his laughter, the scouts set out overnight to spread Enko's orders.

The next morning, a cavalry of 5,000 people arrived at the king's tent. In the evening, more than 30,000 cavalry gathered in the king's tent.

On the third day, Gordan and Midai arrived with five thousand cavalry each.

At this time, they finally discovered King Yan's cavalry running rampant on the grassland.

Without knowing it, these Yan King's cavalry merged into the Yan King's army entering the grassland.

When the news came, the wolves in the Black Iron King's tent suddenly turned red-eyed like hungry wolves who chose others to devour.

This King of Yan cavalry rampaging across the grassland killed the people of their tribe and stole their horses, cattle and sheep. Their resentment towards this cavalry was deeper than the sea.

Now, they just want to catch this cavalry and cut every one of their soldiers into pieces.

"King, give the order, we will tear them into pieces." Midai raised his fist and shook it in front of Enke.

"Your Majesty, we want revenge." Two more wolves shouted.

"..."

The other generals were also furious. The demon they were looking for appeared among the Yan army coming from the south. They could not let go of this opportunity to eliminate them.

Enke nodded, "Dasong people have a saying that mourning soldiers will win. King Yan owes us the Black Iron King's account too much blood debt. This time we want to get it back."

"Bring it back! Bring it back!..." the generals shouted.

Enke looked around and asked: "How far are they from the king's tent?"

"Less than thirty miles, we are setting up camp now." the scout replied.

Seeing the darkness outside the camp, Enke said to the wolves: "Have a good night's rest and launch an attack tomorrow. After winning, we will eat their flesh alive."

After hearing this, the Wolf Lus exited the king's tent one by one, the cruelty in their eyes almost overflowing.

"Hahaha……"

According to the Black Iron King's account, it is thirty miles away.

There are twenty circular formations surrounded by chariots.

Each circular formation is surrounded by 250 chariots. Since each chariot is nearly five meters long, this forms a circle with a radius of nearly 200 meters.

The soldiers' tents were set up in the circular formation.

At this moment, the circular formation formed a large circle again, and Chang Wei's loud laughter came from the central circular formation.

In front of Chang Wei were Zhongli and Chen Hu.

"General, you want us to join together because you want to force the Black Iron King's tent to attack us?" Zhong Li and Chen Hu looked at each other. They were leading the Beidi cavalry in circles these days.

Suddenly, Chang Wei ordered them to join the army.

"Of course, the one the Black Iron King's tent hates the most right now is you. How could the Black Iron King's tent be willing to do anything without catching you?" Chang Wei said.

What he was most worried about was that the Black Iron King would not come to attack them, even though he knew that the Beidi people were always conceited and would most likely choose to fight them.

But calling Zhongli and Chen Hu back will increase this probability.

"Hehe, that's true." Chen Hu said: "In this case, let's really compete. If we win, we will take the opportunity to plunder the entire Black Iron King's tent."

Zhongli nodded and shook the silver gun in his hand, "This time His Highness King Yan allows us to go deep into the grassland, and we will have a good fight."

Lu Chang, Qin Shan, and Wei Qun laughed in agreement upon hearing this.

This time, they will have a real battle with Beidi in the wilderness. They want to see whether Beidi's cavalry is more powerful or their new tactics.
