The Emperor ordered Zhao Tang

Chapter 60 But the flying general of Longcheng is here

"Kill!"

The rebel army formed their battle formation below the building and bared their teeth at the saint.

You read that right, it’s that arrogant.

After a round of elimination of the Shence Army and the establishment of a new army by recruiting soldiers from Guandong, the army in Chang'an is now divided into four camps - the Yaowu Army of 6,000 and the Shangchen Army of 2,000 under the command of Ximen Chongsui, the Military Inspection Envoy. These are his core forces and are capable of fighting. He relies on these two armies to overthrow the Yang family.

The four newly established armies of Baoguo, Yousheng, Longhu, and Neizhi at the beginning of the year were also under his command, with 3 men, but they had never been on the battlefield, so their combat effectiveness was unknown. But in terms of numbers, Lao Zhuguan was the first, with nearly men, divided among his fake sons and generals.

Next are the 2600 brave soldiers under the saint, 18000 dragon knights, Yicongdu and Congzhi troops composed of mixed Qi prisoners. Now we have to include Zhuxie Wusi's guard of Jin people - the total force is about people.

Then there were the several divisions of Yushan left by Yang Fugong, with more than 10,000 elite soldiers. After the Wai Zhai Lang led by Yang Shouliang, Yang Shouzhen and Yang Shouzong fought with Wang Jian in Shuzhong, the Wai Zhai Lang in the capital were united in purpose and gradually brought their soldiers to help - to try to occupy a territory so as not to have to look at other people's faces in Chang'an.

The remaining eunuchs including Han Quanhui, Liu Jingxuan, Luo Quanguan, Liu Guangyu, Jing Wuxiu and others each had a total of 20,000 men.

It was mainly the troops of the two lieutenants Liu Jingxuan and Luo Quanguan - the orthodox Shen Ce Army, Dengfeng, Pengri, Yulin, Yaode and other cities. Their combat effectiveness was OK, they were trained by Tian Lingzi and Yang Fugong, and they had fought with the vassal states several times. They were firmly grasped by the two lieutenants, and they contained a high number of eunuchs.

After the four towns captured Bocheng last year, they also spent money to recruit soldiers for safety reasons.

But do you think the number of troops is too small? Actually, it is quite large.

The Yaowu and Shangchen armies under Ximen Chongsui and the troops of Yang Shouxin and other Waizhailang also belong to the Shen Ce Army in the system... The field camp troops deployed by Yang Fugong in Bashang, Shaolingyuan and Xianyang areas are theoretically under their jurisdiction, but today they went crazy after being instigated by the eunuchs on the pretext of "the emperor reducing rewards."

In fact, it is not difficult to understand - if Yang Fugong wanted to do something, could he be forced down by Ximen Chongsui? If he couldn't do it, what could Liu and Luo do? Because they were rich? Yang Fugong had six military governors and dozens of provincial governors, who were even richer.

Therefore, although this group of inner followers has a lot of soldiers and horses, the only ones they can mobilize to do big things are the more than 5,000 people from the Danfeng Sect.

A lot.

Ximen Chongsui was not seen. After the military rebellion broke out, the Yaowu Army sent to suppress it did not listen to orders and directly took Li Sizhou back to the military camp and killed Dong Congshi, the Marquis of Mabu. They carried his body in a parade through the streets. It was only after the old pigherd offered money and goods that the rebellion stopped.

No money? If you don't have money, you can use others for nothing!
Looking at the bandits downstairs who were burning the palace gates, beating drums and gongs at the saint, and laughing and cursing, the commander became furious again, holding his head and almost fainting.

"Li... Saint." Zhu Xiewusi wanted to call him Li Lang, but thought it was inappropriate. Looking at Li Lang's face, he gently stroked the back of his hand and encouraged him, "Don't worry. With Wei Huan, Ling Zhong, Zhu Er, Ding Zong, and Cun Shen here, the inner servants can't get in. They are just jumping clowns."

"Military officials are difficult to control, scholars are treacherous, and domestic servants are rebellious." The saint rubbed his temples and forced a smile at Zhuxie Wusi.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The rebel army beat drums again in a provocative demonstration.

The guard was not intimidated and shouted back: "Kill you bastards!"

"Everyone." Han Quanhui walked out of the crowd leisurely and shouted from afar: "I heard that there was a change in the palace, and the army was burning the city. I sent troops here, why did the saint attack? Please withdraw the soldiers and let us see you!"

"What a traitorous slave! You should cut out his heart and kill him." Zhu Xiewusi snatched the bow from Helian Weihuan beside him, put an arrow on it and fastened the string. He began to pull his arm back slowly and forcefully, revealing a tall and steep figure under his clothes...

"Hiss..." When the court officials saw this, they couldn't help but whisper to each other.

With this kind of strength, the saint would be in great trouble, so he must not displease the Shatuo woman.

"Swoosh!" After squinting for a while, Zhu Xiewusi suddenly let go and shot out a lightning-fast arrow.

Boom, the arrow hit the small cowhide shield in front of Han Quanhui. Han Quanhui was frightened and quickly retracted his head. The soldiers behind him saw that he was almost shot by the woman's arrow and burst into laughter.

"Beautiful!" The people of Jin laughed loudly. Seeing this scene, the morale of the defenders was boosted, and they beat drums and shouted.

"Even better than Simu Xin." The infantry's strong bows can be fired at will, and the sage is generous in praising them.

Zhu Xiewusi just smiled and said nothing. He pointed at Zhazhu and Li Cunshen and said, "The rebels have no barricades and their formation is disorganized. Zhuer, Cunshen, you can lead 300 cavalry to charge into the formation and dampen their arrogance."

The saint was a little surprised. He originally wanted to send the Long Jie Army to fight, but... since Madam Xian had proposed it, he was happy to do so.

"It's easy, I can even charge at the Bian thieves, what's the use of these rats!" The burly fat man called Zhu'er grinned a few times, causing the armor plates all over his body to clack. After laughing, he bowed to Zhu Xiewusi and turned to go downstairs.

Li Cunshen was honest and humbly bowed his head to the Saint, Zhu Xie and other concubines, and said calmly, "As you command."

In fact, he was a little depressed, not because he was singled out, but because he had both martial arts and strategic plans, but he had run into obstacles everywhere over the years.

Ten years ago, Zhuge Shuang followed Li Hanzhi to make a living. He became the governor of Heyang and served Zhuge Shuang in the war against Qin Zongquan. Although he made many military achievements, his superiors thought he was too aggressive and threatening, so they refused to appoint him.

After Zhuge Shuang was defeated, he went north to Taiyuan, hoping to get the insight of the heroes of Daibei. Li Keyong took him in as his adopted son because he was quiet and incompatible with warriors. Li Cunshen was about to realize his ambitions, but he was sent to Chang'an again - it was a great honor, but also a great responsibility.

But here, there is no stage for him to perform.

The opponents he longed for were powerful enemies like Wei Bo, Cheng De, You Zhou, Heng Hai, and Xuan Wu, rather than those insignificant bandits in Guan Zhong, or fighting with a group of dead eunuchs... Alas.

Where is the one who knows me?

If the sage is willing to use me, that would be great. Once I am stable in Chang'an, I can bring my wife over.

Thinking of this, Li Cunshen went downstairs absent-mindedly, without considering at all how to deal with the enemies outside the city.

"Dong dong dong."

Five hundred brave cavalrymen quickly assembled - when they heard that they were going to break out of the enemy's formation, there were so many applicants that Zhazhu had to select another two hundred cavalrymen. Passing through the dark corridor, the guards quickly opened the city gate, and after letting the people out, they quickly closed it again.

The rebels were still making noises. Li Cunshen looked at them boredly, put away his messy thoughts, shook the lance in his hand, and said simply: "Kill."

The morale of the five hundred Hu cavalrymen was extremely high. They were excited and shouted in their Tibetan language: "Charge!!"

"Boom, boom, boom." Drums were beaten on the upper floor to cheer, and the defenders also raised their arms and shouted.

Li Cunshen sighed, dragged his lance and took the lead. Five hundred riders moved side by side, clamped their horses' backs and began to gather momentum.

When the speed is about right, kick it!
嘘嘚嘚嘚.

The cavalry passed in front of the rebels and shot indiscriminately with their horse bows.

"The Shatuo bandits are here!" The rebels became agitated when they saw some of the cavalrymen had shaved heads and tied ropes, and thought of the Hedong Army that entered the capital that day.

"If the flying general of Longcheng is here, won't the Hu horses be able to cross Yinshan Mountain? We are the Hu horses under Yinshan Mountain!" Zhazhu laughed loudly, rode his horse past the front row, stabbed out with his spear, directly picked out an enemy soldier from the formation, threw him to the ground, and let him be trampled by his own horses.

"We are the Hu Ma!!!" the knights shouted and roared at the rebels.

"Come out." Li Cunshen's face was calm. The four or five-meter-long lance was like a toy in his hand. He stabbed an enemy soldier and sent him flying with one lance.

After quickly retracting it, blood splattered on his face. He then hit the enemy on the head with the spear, causing stars to appear in his eyes and the enemy to sit on the ground.

"The Hu people are so strong!" The rebels watching the battle from behind shouted again. They tried to suppress the cavalry with arrows, but Li Cunshen and his cavalry were like a loach, and they could not be shot at. Even if they were shot, what would it matter? They were covered with armor, and they could only be broken by a full bow within thirty steps.

We can only hope that the spearmen in the front row will perform better and knock down the enemy cavalry.

"Barbarian dogs! Let me meet you!" A group of cavalrymen from the rebel army emerged, and Han Xun, the leader of the ten generals, cursed: "How can we allow barbarian dogs like you to do evil in the Middle Earth!"

Han Xun gritted his teeth.

Laozi was born in a family of military officers in Jingyuan Town. He had been practicing martial arts since childhood and had fought against the Dangxiang and Tibetan people. He had never seen a Hu dog so arrogant that said with certainty that "we are Hu horses". This was really unbearable for him.

Without further ado, he charged into the enemy cavalry and stabbed out with his spear as fast as a flash of light to pierce a pig.

"Tsk!" Zhazhu clamped the horse's back with his thighs, bent to the right, and stuck the lance into the ground. His body almost lay on the horse's back. Then he raised the lance and was led by the horse for more than ten steps, thus putting some distance between him and Han Xun.

"My skills are not that good." Zhazhu looked back at him, shook his head and sighed, "I still need to practice."

Han Xun was so angry that he was fuming - Hu Gou had such excellent riding skills, he must have grown up on horseback!
"Kill!" He urged his horse to charge again.

"Let me get out of your way." Zhazhu stuck the lance into the ground, then pinched the horse's belly and rushed forward with a roar.

"Kill!" Han Xun's eyes were bloodshot and he stabbed violently with the spear in both hands.

Zhazhu dodged by turning his head, stretched out his hand to grab the opponent's spear and held it under his armpit, then asked contemptuously: "Are you still not convinced?"

"Ah!" Han Xun dragged the spear with all his strength to try to break free, but the man's strength was so terrifying that the spear didn't move at all despite his full strength!

"No way." Zhazhu bit his cheek, but finally couldn't help laughing.

"Crack!" He pulled out the sword with his backhand, and with a "puff" sound, it flew into the opponent's left eye exposed outside the armor.

Han Xun screamed and fell off his horse.

A horseman rushed over, swung his spear, lifted him up high, and then smashed him down heavily.

In less than two rounds, Han Xun, one of the ten generals of Pengri City, was killed in the battle!
The army was suddenly in an uproar, and the soldiers began to discuss loudly in panic - there were still two thousand such cavalrymen in the city.

"Shatuo is invincible!" Someone shouted in fear.
