The Era of Generals

According to the spy's report, after capturing most of the cities in Nantes, Zheng Yuanyun currently has about 1.2 million troops on hand.

If only from the comparison of the forces of the two sides, Zheng Yuanyun is undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

But the actual situation is very clear.

Regardless of the fact that Zheng Yuanyun has fewer soldiers, but the actual combat power is higher than his.

We must know that when the army of the Qingyang Empire advanced into the province of Nantes, Zheng Yuanyun arrived from Anluo province almost a month late.

Although Zheng Yuanyun came so late that he missed the best fighter opportunity, at the same time, it was not all good for him to come late.

At least the troops he sent to the province of Nantes were selected through overall planning.

It can be said that even the hundreds of thousands of swordsmans who were ruthlessly used as a stepping stone in Xilong City during the First World War, if placed in some small cities, it would make the city lord laugh and wake up in his dreams, and he is very eager to think. The elite soldiers to get.

Such troops are far more powerful than Ouyang's miscellaneous troops there.

Ouyang strictly enforced this side. His strength is very large, but in fact, all of them were made up temporarily by more than a dozen cities in Fengxi Province near Nantes Province. The real elite soldiers of Fengxi Province still stayed in the main. The city is facing away with the Mohe province of the Bailie Empire.

Such an army, when it used more to fight and less to deal with Yan Haomiao, whose mentality had collapsed, was beaten into a weakened soldier. Not to mention the actual quality of the soldiers compared with Zheng Yuanyun, even if compared with Yan Haomiao's army, it was more. Not as good.

Had it not been for Chen Ze to draw water from it, even though Ouyang Lixing had the largest force, he did not dare to act rashly, and he didn't even have the intention to set foot in the southern provinces and meet Yan Haomiao.

After solving Yan Haomiao's troubles, the empire sent an emissary to ask him to support the province of Nantes. At that time, Ouyang Strict was also unwilling to do so.

My family knows what happened to my family, and only with the soldiers in his hands, unless he uses people to pile it, it is possible to pile it up to death, and it is only possible.

With the quality of the soldiers he has, if the real swords and the spears and Zheng Yuanyun set out the carts and horses, Ouyang strictly believes that he does not know how he died.

What's more, he has been on the road here, while Zheng Yuanyun is fighting and walking from city to city. Although the soldiers under his team are fighting less and less, what remains is the murderous elite soldiers. Each one has been baptized by blood and fire.

This is going to be a pair, and the murderous aura from the opponent is enough to scare away a large number of recruits. How can this be beaten?

Therefore, Ouyang didn't have any idea about it. He really followed Chen Ze's suggestion to deploy defenses between the three border cities until the murderous Zheng Yuanyun troops arrived.

Tianyuan City, this was the first of the three border cities, and it was also the first confrontation between Zheng Yuanyun and Ouyang after Zheng Yuanyun's army advanced.

At this moment, soldiers are approaching the city.

Ouyang Lixing did not hide behind, but stood dignifiedly at the head of Tianyuan City, watching the opponent's army advance to the city little by little.

"Let's release the arrow, shoot at the foot."

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to want to stop, Ouyang frowned strictly, and with one hand, he ordered the archer to prepare.

Whoosh whoosh!

He gave an order, and a wave of arrows flew into the air like locusts. The rain of arrows fell, and it happened to be stuck in front of Zheng Yuanyun's army less than ten steps.

Zheng Yuanyun galloped out from among the soldiers. After all, he was a counselor, and he was accompanied by his cronies when he came out.

He raised his head, stared at the extraordinary generals on the head of Tianyuan City, and smiled: "It must be Chief Soldier Ouyang on the head of the city, right?"

Ouyang did not deny it strictly, staring coldly at Zheng Yuanyun and said, "Any suggestions?"

"Advise?"

Zheng Yuanyun smiled and said, "That won't be enough, but what? You and I missed it near Dongping City a month ago. It's rare to meet again today. How about a fight?"

This is full of provocative meaning. When he was in Dongping City, he did not move a single step, but Ouyang Li Xing led the army away. What he meant was nothing but Ouyang's strict avoidance of war. article.

How can Ouyang Li Xing fail to hear it, and how can he pay attention to it?

Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Come on, then, this soldier is waiting for you here."

Come?

Zheng Yuanyun glanced forward, how did this come about?

Tianyuan City was originally a small city, but Ouyang Strictly appeared to have been here for a long time, and Tianyuan City was almost remodeled by him.

The first point is that Ouyang Strictly built a new wall outside the original low wall of Tianyuan City.

This city wall was built to be wide and wide, almost completely blocking the entire Tianyuan City behind. The head of the city where Ouyang Strictly stood at this time was this new city wall.

The new city wall was built against the old city wall. This resulted in that the city wall of Tianyuan City is no longer as narrow as before, but has a certain width. Although it is a **** that slopes to the rear, it can at least allow the city to go to the top. Accommodate more soldiers to defend the city.

Zheng Yuanyun also saw that on this new city wall, one station at ten steps, one pavilion at five steps, Ouyang strictly deployed a large number of trebuchets. Next to the trebuchets, there are densely packed archers guarding them. Just like the rain of arrows just now, if he dared to order an attack, he would wait for countless long-range attacks to fall on the soldiers.

This time, unlike in the city of Xilong, a moat lay there. At this moment, there is no river. Naturally, he can no longer let the soldiers use their lives in vain. Although damage is inevitable, normal battle damage and excessive use of life are still inevitable. different.

Zheng Yuanyun didn't want to be in conflict at this critical moment.

So he laughed loudly and said: "Zong Bing Ouyang~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Your words are very interesting. This ginseng will also hold the principle of not hurting and amiable when discussing with you. Actually, there is no need for us to confront each other. "

"Oh?"

Ouyang sternly said: "You and I belong to the two empires, and the enemy and us are already so clear, can you still face each other without using swords and soldiers?"

"That's okay. If General Zheng is willing to retreat and leave, then the general can guarantee that he doesn't have to fight each other and let you leave, and promises that nothing in the past will be dealt with. What do you think?"

This made Zheng Yuanyun laughed with anger, "General Ouyang wants the generals to retreat?"

"Then it seems that there is no room for negotiation?"

Ouyang sternly said: "Then how do you want to negotiate?"

Zheng Yuanyun's eyes turned cold, and said: "My method of consultation is that if General Ouyang is willing to abandon the last three cities of this southern province, then the generals can also guarantee that you will not touch your Fengqixing. Save a penny, so, how good do you think?"
