Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 560

[Chapter 560]

“What!” Mu Lehong was really surprised.

The expressions of Tie Muta and the other Beidi generals also changed.

“How many of them are there?” Mu Lehong asked anxiously.

“There are 50,000 people, and they are also carrying chariots.” The cavalry said.

Mu Lehong’s heart sank.

In fact, he has been worried that the soldiers and horses from Yanguan will come to support Ning Cheng.

So they have been sending scouts to watch Yanguan.

After finding that there was no movement at Yanguan, he attacked Ningcheng with all his strength.

Unexpectedly, they didn’t keep an eye on it, just like they didn’t keep an eye on the soldier who suddenly captured Ningcheng.

Until this moment, he finally realized the importance of the navy.

If Beidi had a strong navy, King Yan’s army would not be able to run rampant on the sea, and they could land wherever they wanted in Ningjindusi.

“Fight!” Mu Lehong held the whip tightly.

The tunnel has been completed, and he will win soon, but at this time, King Yan’s reinforcements arrive.

This made him extremely angry.

If he withdraws, his plan will be in vain for the sacrifice of these few days.

If he didn’t withdraw, he had to stop the reinforcements and prevent them from affecting his plan to capture Ningcheng.

After weighing left and right, he finally decided to launch an attack on King Yan’s reinforcements.

Otherwise, he will lose Ning Cheng forever.

This order was passed on to Gurtu.

Gurtu was handed over to Horqin, and then to Gule and Wuyan.

Their khan asked him to continue the task he had not completed, which was to annihilate the soldiers and horses of Yanguan.

The four looked at each other with solemn expressions.

Their soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses in Yanguan.

In the past six days, they participated in the attack on Ningcheng again, lost troops and generals again, and their morale was already very low.

The number of soldiers is less than 150,000.

It’s just that this is the Khan’s order, and they can’t help it.

They can bear the words dare to die king’s account on their heads.

Mobilize troops and horses, and they line up south.

Waiting for the arrival of Yanguan reinforcements.

“General Mo, we can reach Ningcheng in ten miles.”

Just as Beidi was waiting in full force, a group of soldiers and horses were walking slowly.

They are the Yanguan troops led by Mo Yu.

Thinking about the days, after he left 5,000 soldiers to guard Yanguan the day before yesterday, he led the troops out of the city under the cover of night and marched towards Ningcheng.

In his opinion, this period of time is enough for Qin Shan to consume part of Beidi’s troops.

It’s time to join forces, attack from inside and outside, and fight Beidi in Ningcheng.

Although their number of soldiers and horses may still be inferior to that of Beidi.

But their firearms are enough to offset this part of the disadvantage.

In particular, he brought a lot of twelve-pound field guns.

The distance of ten miles is already very clear under the telescope.

Sitting on the horse, Mo Yu was able to observe Ning Cheng’s movements.

Now, Beidi’s army was arrayed against him, obviously trying to deal with him.

At the same time, two Beidi cavalry came towards their flanks.

Each cavalry has about 5,000 people.

“Advance in a square formation.” Mo Yu gave the order with a calm demeanor.

Upon receiving his order, the chariots that were driving outside immediately started to move, forming a square formation one by one.

It’s just that the chariot soldiers didn’t untie the horses pulling the chariot immediately, but moved forward slowly in this shape.

If a battle is needed, they will immediately untie the horses, lead them into the formation, and then connect the iron chains between the chariots.

At the same time, the cavalry and infantry entered their respective square chariot formations one after another and advanced with the chariot formation.

Usually, the soldiers have practiced these during exercises, so they are also familiar with the road.

After another two miles, Beidi cavalry arrived first.

Facing the formation of chariots, the Beidi cavalry only circled outside, but did not launch an attack for a long time.

They knew that their horses could not cross these chariots and attack the soldiers in the formation.

But Mo Yu obviously didn’t want to be polite to these Beidi soldiers.

He ordered the whole army to shoot as long as they were within range.

So during the march, three or five soldiers kept shooting in a line, and the Beidi cavalry kept falling down.

“General Mo is here.”

At the head of Ningcheng City, the movements in the south could not be concealed from the soldiers of the palace on the city wall.

The gunshots sounded from the south, and they were suddenly refreshed, and they seemed to have forgotten the fatigue of the past few days.

Guan Tong pinched his waist and laughed.

Although he appeared relaxed on the surface in front of the soldiers these days, he was actually very anxious inside.

Ammunition is getting less and less. Once it is gone, their advantage over Beidi will be greatly reduced.

At that time, how many of these soldiers who fought with him can survive in the end will only depend on God’s will.

But now that Mo Yu is here, he feels at ease.

Those chariots can not only hold food, but also ammunition.

As long as they join forces, the problem of ammunition will be solved.

When he was excited, he saw Qin Shan coming from Beicheng.

Someone had already told him what was going on in the south.

“It’s finally here. Now we don’t have to stay in Ningcheng, we can take the initiative to fight Beidi.” Qin Shan looked excited.

Their ultimate goal is to eliminate Beidi’s vital forces in Ningjindusi.

Otherwise, just occupying Ningcheng would not make much sense.

After a pause, he continued: “Organize 20,000 soldiers and horses to start from the south city, and attack the Beidi army in the south from inside and outside!”
