Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 418

[Chapter 418 Omen]

“I won! I won…” The

Beidi cavalry fled in a panic, and the soldiers in the chariot formation burst into cheers.

The infantry held their flintlocks aloft, and the artillerymen raised their hands in front of the cannon.

The cavalry pointed their sabers to the sky.

This was the first time they went deep into the grassland, and it was also the first time they fought against such a large number of Beidi cavalry.

Before departure, everyone knew that this would be a difficult battle, and they already had the belief in their hearts that they would die on the battlefield.

Now, they won, and it was a big victory.

Under the miserable life of being robbed by Beidi every year, they finally felt proud today and let out this bad breath.

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…”

Some soldiers were crying faintly amidst the enthusiastic cheers.

They wept with joy, and the spirits of their loved ones in heaven would be comforted at this moment.

Chang Wei’s eyes were slightly red, he looked at Lu Chang, Qin Shan, Wei Qun and others.

There were tears in the eyes of these generals.

They shed tears only because they deeply love the homeland of the North Four Counties.

This victory made them realize that they have the ability to protect this land and the people of this land.

“Tatatatat…”

At this moment, Zhongli and Chen Hu led the cavalry back, their faces excited, waiting for Chang Wei’s order.

“Now immediately encircle and suppress all the tribes on the Black Iron King’s Tent Grassland, bring back those who can be brought back to the four northern counties, and burn all the ones that cannot be brought back.” Chang Wei waved his hand.

The black iron king’s tent was defeated, and if he didn’t take the opportunity to seize their cattle, sheep, war horses, and rescue the people of Dasong who were enslaved by them, when would it be.

“Yes, General!” The two took the order and left.

Immediately, the cavalry rushed to the densely packed white tents to the north.

“Lu Chang, Qin Shan, and Wei Qun, each of you will lead a troop to cooperate with the cavalry. You will have six days to return to the fortress.” Chang Wei continued to order.

Six days was enough time for the cavalry of the Black Iron King’s Tent to come with reinforcements.

Although he won this time, he was not dazzled by the victory.

The fact that they won so smoothly this time was attributable to Chen Hu and Zhong Li’s harassment, which angered the black iron king’s account.

It made the black iron king’s account go crazy, and chose to fight them decisively.

Secondly, the soldiers on the hot air balloon blew up Enke by surprise, causing the cavalry to go crazy, and the battle was out of order.

If they continue to go deep into the grassland, their food road will be lengthened.

Once Beidi reinforcements arrived, their cavalry could easily cut off their food routes and trap them in the grasslands.

At that time, the soldiers and horses of the palace will be in a desperate situation.

Therefore, their goal this time is only limited to the pasture of the Black Iron King’s Tent.

This is what King Yan told him before he went to Yanguan.

Watching the cavalry rush into the Beidi camp, Chang prestige looked at the wounded and groaning soldiers in the chariot formation.

Although the faces are painful, many soldiers have smiles on their faces.

He could feel what these soldiers felt.

They are not afraid of being injured or bleeding, but they are afraid that no one will lead them to victory.

And now, a person has taken root in their hearts.

This is King Yan.

Not only the soldiers, but he also trusts King Yan very much now.

At the beginning, when the King of Yan chose him as the general, he might have been a little utilitarian.

But now, he loyally supports His Royal Highness King Yan until death.

…

at this moment.

Yanguan.

Zhao Xu was looking at the white tents on the city wall.

These camps are two miles away from Yanguan and extend for more than ten miles.

Beidi soldiers came and went between the tents.

Because it was evening, a stream of cooking smoke rose straight into the sky, and was dyed bright red by the sunset glow.

After arriving at Yanguan, he checked the defense of Yanguan in the past few days while waiting for news from the sea.

At the same time, there is also the movement of the Yuan family.

After all, Yanshan’s black iron king’s tent is just a small wave in this war.

Yanguan is Beidi’s real goal.

Once Yanguan is captured, Beidi will be able to advance and attack, retreat and defend, and remain invincible.

“This time Beidi is really aggressive. Fortunately, Your Highness has detected Beidi’s plot in advance, otherwise Yanzhou will be in danger this time.” Mo Yu was beside Zhao Xu, also holding a telescope in his hand.

This scouting weapon is now basically one for every general above the rank of lieutenant.

In addition, it is to ration the generals and soldiers who are responsible for the investigation.

However, in order to prevent the telescope from falling into Beidi’s hands, the army demanded that the telescope should be destroyed immediately if it might be captured.

After a pause, he suddenly frowned again, “It’s just that the war in the northwest is going so smoothly, it’s really strange.”

People from the Fourth Court just came and brought news of the war in the northwest.

The Northern Expeditionary Army successfully took Wengcheng, and it was taken very easily.

“Now the Northern Expeditionary Army is superstitious about the power of artillery, from the emperor to the powerful generals to the soldiers. Taking Wengcheng will only make them believe in this even more, and this is very dangerous.” Zhao Xu said bluntly.

Because the distance between Qinzhou and Yanzhou is about the same as the distance between Yanzhou and Jinling.

So this news is lagging behind, and he doesn’t know exactly where the Northwest War is now.

“Not to mention the emperor and the powerful clan, even the generals and soldiers of the palace at that time were very superstitious about artillery, thinking that if they had artillery, everything would be fine.” Mo Yu laughed.

If it hadn’t been for King Yan repeatedly emphasizing in the army that the people who fight are basically people, I’m afraid that this impetuous atmosphere in the army will continue to grow.

Zhao Xu shook his head helplessly, not to mention that Beidi also has artillery now.

Let’s just talk about cavalry, before machine guns and tanks appeared, they were always the kings of the field.

The high mobility of cavalry is unmatched by other arms.

That’s why he ordered Chang Wei’s attack to stop in moderation.

For an attack, the food, grass and ammunition carried by the soldiers are fixed.

When the ammunition runs out, the flintlock guns and cannons will become scrap iron, and when the food and grass run out, the soldiers will collapse without fighting.

This requires a steady stream of supplies to continue.

But the too long supply line is a fatal flaw exposed to the Beidi cavalry.

After all, his cavalry was still unable to protect such a long supply line.

His four northern counties could not recruit a large number of civilians in order to maintain such a long supply line.

This will seriously affect the development of the four counties.

“I hope the emperor can trust Old General Yang, otherwise, this Northern Expedition may be a disaster.” Zhao Xu said lightly.

He can only say that Beidi Khan Mulehong is really a formidable opponent.

The east and west sides made it impossible for the Northern Expeditionary Army and him to take care of each other and defeat each other.

It’s just that he doesn’t know what will happen to the Northern Expeditionary Army, but Beidi’s plan in Yanzhou will never succeed.

The two were talking, when a soldier hurried to the city wall and handed a letter to Zhao Xu.

“Your Highness, this is the news just sent from Jinghai County. There is movement in the navy of Korea.” Said the team member.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xu tore open the envelope immediately.

After sweeping his eyes, he frowned, “After waiting for so long, Beidi is finally coming from the sea. It seems that the decisive battle between the east and the west is coming.”

o(╥﹏╥)o, the snail found Every time I talk about more updates, I have to be disturbed by things the next day. It is a curse. I can’t update normally today. If I promise, I won’t dare to talk nonsense.

In addition, there is also the matter of the plot. You can delete the book and re-add it to the bookshelf to see the modified version. The modified part mainly starts from the rebellion of the Yuan family. In about 180 chapters, the Yuan family was modified. He didn’t die, and the fief was changed to four counties, and the relationship between the protagonist and the emperor deteriorated a bit.
