Maoyuan County is located at the junction of Xiangyi Prefecture and Donglin Prefecture.

Since Xiangyi Mansion began to promote the official carriages, there have been many more merchants traveling between Xiangyi Mansion and Donglin Mansion.

Naturally, more travelers settled in Maoyuan County.

It was originally an ordinary small county town, but it suddenly became lively because of the frequent business exchanges.

On the official roads, there is an endless stream of carriages and horses coming and going, and at the tea shop on the roadside, carriages and horses stop by for a cup of tea and rest.

"The North Barbarian is here!"

"Run!"

Suddenly, there was a screaming cry, and several people galloped from the direction of Donglin Mansion on horseback.

"Run!"

"The North Barbarian is here!"

Immediately the knight galloped past, shouting as he ran.

When the merchants and carriages on the official road heard this call, they were first taken aback, and then ran wildly towards the mountains and forests on both sides of the road.

As for the goods?

At this time, I still need money, do I need to think about it?

In just a few moments, the official road that was still lively just now was instantly cleaned up.

The tea shop on the side of the road is even more messy.

Some people ran into the county seat, while others hid in the mountains and forests.

Then, whether it was the people who entered the county town or the people who hid in the mountains and forests, they felt the tremors of the earth.

North Barbarian, it's really here!

"Close the gate!"

"Bing the gong!"

Li Gan, a military academy lieutenant of Maoyuan County, gave the order immediately.

No one knows how the Northern Manzi appeared in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but with the town army of a county, it was impossible to stop the Northern Manzi's thousands of cavalry.

The only thing they can do is to defend Maoyuan County.

"Light the smoke!"

Wolf smoke, that is, beacon transmission.

Since King Yan guarded the Northland, the Northland has never ignited a wolf smoke in the past 20 years.

Now, the smoke is up again!

Li Gan didn't know why there was no wolf smoke from the north, or why the Northern Barbarian cavalry suddenly appeared outside Maoyuan County.

He only knew that if Beiman attacked the city, he would only fight to death.

However, the Northern Barbarian cavalry circled the city from under Maoyuan County, all the way to the south.

As soon as Maoyuan County magistrate Chu Xiuyan received the letter, he lifted his sword and went up to the city wall.

"Something's wrong!"

Chu Xiuyan looked at Li Gan next to him, "Xiaowei Li, what do you think this northern barbarian is going to do?"

"Anshun County!"

Li Gan raised his head abruptly, "Beiban should be going to Anshun County. Huangfengkou!"

"Come on, beat the drums!"

"Can't North Barbarians go to Anshun County like this, brothers who are not afraid of death, come out of the city with me!"

Li Gan guessed the goal of the northern barbarian cavalry, without any hesitation, directly issued the order to go out of the city to meet.

Huang Fengkou, it is no secret that Xu Laoer has cut the two little princes of Beiman in succession.

On the contrary, in order to boost morale, the news has already spread.

At this moment, the Northern Barbarian Cavalry appeared here strangely, all the way to the south, which was clearly intended to attack the old and weak women and children of the Xu family.

At first glance, this matter has nothing to do with them.

However, the men of Xu's family guarded the Huangfengkou, guarding the gates of the Tang Dynasty, and protecting the safety of these people.

If you watch the Xu family's women and children die under the sword of the Northern Barbarian Cavalry, are they still individuals?

Li Gan explained the whole story in a few words.

Most of the town army in Maoyuan County is in line.

They are the town army and their duty is to defend the city. But once the war in the north is tight, they have to go to the battlefield and go desperately. Because of what Xu family father and son did, they didn't have to go desperately.

Now that Beiman intends to retaliate, how can they sit back and watch?

"Chu county magistrate, the county seat will ask you!"

Li Gan worshipped this Chu Xiu three times, and then rushed out of the county seat with more than three hundred soldiers from the town.

Maoyuan County is not large, and the number of garrison troops in the town is only five hundred.

Of course, some of them are old and weak.

At this moment, there are more than three hundred who can follow Li Gan out of the city, which can be regarded as the full combat power of Maoyuan County's Nengzheng army.

"Don't kill them, our purpose is to hold them back!"

The wolf smoke has already risen, as long as these northern barbarian cavalry are dragged down and given time for the city to respond, then these northern barbarian cavalry will have no return.

...

The leader of the Northern Barbarian Cavalry is now An Tai Gong Xu Huairen, dressed in women's clothing.

But at this moment, Xu Huairen was just staring at An Taigong’s skin, and the thought inside had already changed for another person, she was still a woman.

"I don't know whether to live or die, all killed!"

After discovering that the Zhenjun in Maoyuan County had left the city, Xu Huairen, who had changed his mind, waved his hand abruptly.

Then, a hundred northern barbarian cavalry separated from the brigade and charged towards the 300-odd Maoyuan county town army led by Li Gan.

"defense!"

With Li Gan's shout, the three hundred town troops immediately lined up and fired a long carbine.

The carbine was specially made by the Datang infantry to fight the Northern Barbarian cavalry. In fact, it was a long piece of wood to cut out a sharp point.

Once the infantry encounters a charge from the horse team, they will quickly raise their carbine and stay on the ground.

If the Cavaliers charge directly, ignoring the resistance of the carbine, it will definitely end up on their own.

And if the horse team detours, it will be stopped by the soldiers' short crossbows.

Because of the power of the entire clan from the Northern Barbarian, when Li Gan received the news, he began to train soldiers in the town under his command.

If it were before, no one would pay attention to Li Gan's practice.

But now, on the contrary, everyone wants to practice for a few more days.

After all, they are practicing now in order to get on the battlefield and survive.

Rejecting the carbine, the Northern Barbarian cavalry really chose to go around.

Li Gan waved his hand decisively and shot the crossbow arrow quickly.

Shoot people first and shoot horses!

The Northern Barbarian Cavalry without the horse, facing the infantry of Datang, is just a scum.

The one hundred northern barbarian cavalrymen did not destroy Li Gan's three hundred town troops, but half of them lost their lives. As for the rest, although they were not dead, they lost their mounts.

"kill--"

Li Gan roared, taking the lead and charging with a knife.

The northern barbarian soldier opposite him also wielded a knife and ran, preparing to confront Li Gan.

however……

"puff!"

Li Gan raised his hand, and the crossbow arrow in his hand shot straight through the man's chest.

"Scum!"

Knife to knife?

Are you stupid to be Laozi? Obviously you can kill you more effortlessly, so how can you consume this energy?

On the battlefield, saving every bit of effort will give you more hope of life-saving.

This is the experience summed up by Father Li Gan.

And he was handed over to the town army in Maoyuan County without reservation.

As a result, the entire army of a hundred northern barbarian cavalry was annihilated, and the town army in Maoyuan County suffered no casualties.

Everyone followed Li Gan's example, swinging their swords forward, but when approaching the soldiers of the North Barbarian, they all squeezed the trigger of the crossbow and shot the opponent with the crossbow.

"Shameless Tang people!"

An Tai's father Xu Huairen, who had changed the core, saw this scene and couldn't help cursing.

"High Priest!"

"Would you like to take a team with you at the end?"

A Northern Barbarian cavalry guarding Xu Huairen's side said respectfully.
