Aslan is tasting the red wine that his subordinates bought from the Angela Empire. It is said that this red wine can only be drunk by some of the highest nobles in the Angela Empire, and only 300 bottles a year are produced. The market is priceless. When one of his subordinates told him that the governor of Assyria was able to buy this red wine called Yemei Lanxiang, he asked the subordinate to take his letter to his wife and brother to Asia. Shucheng, let him help me buy a bottle of chat to comfort myself. The governor of Assyria is his wife and brother. Not only is he incomparable in the official ranks, he is also inferior to his wealth by giving him a horse, but he treats his wife quite well, according to the general standards of the empire. In other words, the lord of a city is a viscount and can have many concubines, but Aslan has always only had this kind of woman, so his wife and brother are very friendly to him, as long as they are not very demanding, they can basically satisfy them. He, besides, he doesn't have much pursuit, a city lord is already the limit of his ability, so he has also worked hard in enjoyment.
Tasting the Yemei Lanxiang that he bought with nearly five thousand gold coins, and looking at the liquor in the goblet, Aslan was very excited. It is a red wine that can only be tasted by noble nobles. The wine is light red. Turning the cup lightly and watching the wine slowly rotate in the cup, the original light fragrance flows out, and it makes you feel light smelling with your nose. The five bodies are relaxed, and the internal organs are filled with a hint of drunkenness, and a small peck is full of fragrance, which is really not enjoyable. Aslan didn’t feel it in his heart. Although the Emperor was rich in the world, he was not able to taste such a good wine. It seems that his wife and brother are also very close to the Angela Empire. Fortunately, he is a long-sleeved dancer. , Or else such a good wine would be unforgettable.
While enjoying the wine in Aslan, the butler ran over and told him that he had a military report. In this way, Aslan didn't dare to neglect, put down the goblet in his hand, trot to the council chamber of the city lord mansion.
I saw a small school drinking water in the chamber at this time. After seeing Aslan, he got up with one knee and placed his right hand in front of his left head. After performing a standard knight's audience, Aslan gave it to him. Aroused and asked about the specific military situation. The small colonel handed General Stark's letter to Aslan.
After Aslan opened the letter and read it again, he asked the little school to rest at the post house. Another entourage asked Howard and Chamberlain to come to the City Lord’s Mansion to discuss matters.
After half a cup of tea, the two arrived at the city lord’s mansion. After Aslan talked about the war at Gulongdu with them, he asked, "General Chamberlain, what do you think of this?"
Chamberlain is a tall man who is nearly 50 years old, with broad shoulders and thick back, a burly body, and a loud voice, "Going back to the city lord, currently sending reinforcements for you, together with General Stark, drove the culprits back to the south bank of the Longxing River. It is right to hold Gulongdu and wait for General Youwei to come and fight with one of the parties."
"How many soldiers and horses does the general think to bring to support?"
"It depends on how many soldiers are left to defend the city under Howard? The available soldiers under his command are three thousand swordsmen. I wonder if the city owner can equip him with a thousand cavalry?" Chamberlain calculated it for a while and said.
Aslan turned his head to Howard. After Howard groaned slightly, he said, "At present, the city defense brigade has three thousand swordsmen and two thousand knights. One thousand swordsmen and one thousand knights can be drawn out and given to General Chamberlain to lead the Gulong. Cross. The remaining soldiers are enough to defend the city. Please rest assured."
After hearing this, Aslan was determined that although he did not have any military experience, he has the advantage of never being self-righteous. He has a theory that is to leave professional matters to professional people. This is the truth. . Therefore, the relationship between the city lord and the subordinate officials in Qilai City has always been very harmonious.
So they ordered the small school to send the letter to the chamber, and after he told the small school of his decision, he asked the small school to leave first and pass the news to General Stark. On the other side, he ordered Chamberlain to lead the four thousand swordsman camp and one The Thousand Knights will get up early tomorrow morning and rush to help Gulongdu.
Early the next morning, Aslan led Chamberlain's army out of the city with his entourage and Howard, and after drinking Desheng Wine, Chamberlain bid farewell to the city owner and the city defense chief, and led the team slowly towards Gulongdu.
At midday, Chamberlain’s soldiers and horses were close to Chunping Post. Because the day is approaching, there is no fear of an enemy attack, so the whole army is ordered to stop and rest, set up camps, bury pots for cooking, and arrange a team of cavalry forward to inquire about the news. , And carefully check the traces of the invincible army.
After receiving Aziz’s order, Zizig rushed to Chunping Station overnight and settled five thousand soldiers behind the hill on the left side of the avenue. The sky was getting close, and the soldiers had to take a nap. And you have to cook until you defeat the enemy reinforcements. So, Qi Qige quietly waited for the reinforcements coming to Qicheng in Chunpingyi. When he saw a group of cavalry galloping past the hill, he knew that reinforcements were coming. He ordered a captain with a hundred cavalry to bring that group of cavalry back a few tongues, and wipe out the rest. The squad leader led his squad towards the other side.
In the time of a cup of tea, the team leader came back with a few tongues. He lost three horses and wiped out the rest. Zizig asked how the opponent's combat power was. The team leader told him that he was basically the same as Mileng. The city defense soldiers are the same, so Qiqige is relieved. After asking a few tongue reinforcements about the specific situation, he did not leave a living, and said to his subordinates: "In a moment, we will be divided into two groups. One way round from here to the back of the enemy at Chunping Station, another way. After half an hour on the first road, we will face the enemy from the front. Okay, let the soldiers eat some dry food. After the fight is over, we will have hot meals, haha."
After five thousand people ate the dry food in a hurry, two thousand five hundred riders all the way along the hill and ran behind the enemy army. After half an hour, Zizig took the remaining two thousand four hundred and rode up to the hill and saw it. Chamberlain’s barracks did not have any defense. I don’t know if the cavalry sent was to report to Gu Longdu or used as a scout, but as a battlefield veteran, it stands to reason that Chamberlain would not even notice this abnormality. Yeah, Zizig couldn't understand it, but this just allowed them to knock the enemy by surprise. So, Zizig drew the saber from his waist, lifted it into the air, waved "kill" forward, and ran down the hill to rush towards the enemy camp.
When the soldiers of Qilaicheng saw a large group of cavalry killing them, they quickly got up and picked up the weapons on the ground. A small school ran to the handsome account to report that Chamberlain had encountered an enemy attack. Chamberlain hurriedly got up, cursing in his heart why the cavalry didn't find the enemy and none of them came back to report
When Chamberlain still had a defense system to organize soldiers, Zizig had already led his troops into the camp. More than two thousand cavalrymen washed away like a flood in the enemy camp. These imperial soldiers may have just been The reason for eating, plus the fact that it’s very slow to go on a run, but it took a whole morning to take a break. It was just when we were tired and tired, there was not much strength on the hands and legs, which made Qiqige With their attack, the defense they had just organized was overtaken.
At this time, the other road had already detoured to the enemy camp, and when he heard the call to kill, he immediately led the army and rushed from behind. This time, the imperial city defense army, which had been unwilling to fight, collapsed suddenly. Under the sabers of Qiqige's five thousand cavalrymen, ghosts were crying and howling, and they all hated their parents for having two legs. The soldiers of the Principality were harvesting the lives of the imperial soldiers like death. Chamberlain saw that the general situation was not good, so he took his own troops and hurriedly broke through to the north.
This battle lasted only 20 minutes. All the five thousand imperial troops were killed except Chamberlain's five hundred followers, and none of them escaped. Zizig looked at the soldiers who cleared the battlefield. This is how an inconsistent general would bring a tie to the army. If there were such generals in the empire, then the world would be easy to seize.
After thinking for a while, I sent a thousand horses to cruise between Qilai City and Gulongdu to deter Qilaicheng. Don't think about sending reinforcements anymore. The troops were led in and out of Gulongdu with the clothes of soldiers who fell from Qilai City. Qi Qige thought this way. Since Qilai has sent reinforcements to the city, Gu Longdu must know it, and it is impossible for a person like General Stark to be familiar with a leader of the rear city defense force, as long as our army Put on the clothes of the city defense army, and said that after the battle with a team of enemy troops, although they won, they also lost a lot. You can also take out a small part of our army’s weapons and armor to serve as trophies. He has won the trust of Starck. , When the commander leads his army to attack the camp, he can attack inside and outside, and worry that the ancient dragon will not enter the hands of our army
After thinking of a good idea, nearly 30 miles from Gulongdu, all the soldiers changed their clothes, some of the cavalry became a swordsman camp, and a small part of the Principality’s armor was used as a trophy. We came outside the Gulongdu defensive camp together.
"Please inform us. Let's come to the city defense battalion officer Yalaita, and come with four thousand troops to report." Zizige said loudly.
After passing the pass, a small school led Zizig to General Stark's account. After seeing Stark, he talked about the matter and said that General Chamberlain would arrive in two days with the back team. Stark didn't realize it was different, so he commended him and arranged for Zizig's troops to rest in Zuoying.
In the evening, he brought Zizige to the dust and told him that the reinforcements of Huolin City were robbed by the enemy on the way, and it was impossible to reunite with them, so he could only stand by and wait for assistance, and the troops of General Youwei left Gulongdu. It’s only fifteen days away. Vanguard Sangmara is only five days away from Gulongdu, so if you insist on five days is victory, General Stark also encouraged the soldiers at the reception banquet, we will definitely persist. To the army. The soldiers yelled "Persevere to the end" together. This made Zizige worry about it. It seemed that he had to find a way to make a report to the general tonight. So he returned to the camp, he wrote what he heard into a letter, and sent a clever person to give this letter to Ah.
