Chapter 1330

The five-star army is full of cavalry. They are infantry, which is the existence of natural weakness. Outside Dalu city is a vast grassland. This terrain is just suitable for the expansion and impact of cavalry. In contrast, infantry will suffer a lot, which has been lost for a while.

For various reasons, Zhan Peng came to a conclusion that if he went out of the city, he might lose the war, or even get a bad one. It is also possible to lose the city of Dalu.

Zhan Peng, who was shocked by this conclusion, was even more unlikely to send reinforcements out of the city. He just sent several carrier pigeons to inform Gao Yu, the supervisor under Shicheng, that he knew the difficulties and difficulties here. At the same time, he also sent someone to the wanquandu division in the rear. He wanted to report the matter to the governor Shi Heng. It was better for this person to stand up and command the overall situation. In any case, his responsibility would become very small.

As a man, he has selfishness. Knowing that it is dangerous to leave the city, Zhan Peng, who wants to shirk his responsibility, thought of inviting Shi Heng out of the mountain. After sending out several carrier pigeons, he waited for news in the city. After a sleepless night, at dawn the next day, the news of the Shangguan didn't come. A commander guarding the city had run to him, "general, general, go and have a look. There are many of our routed soldiers down the city. They are being surrounded and killed by the cavalry of the five-star army."

"What? Let's go." hearing the change of things, Zhan Peng was surprised and hurried out of the house and went straight to the city tower.

Ran all the way to the city tower. Zhan Peng looked up and saw that many soldiers in Beiming military uniforms were being cut by the five-star cavalry, surrounded by bows and arrows and sabers.

In less than half an hour, at least hundreds of the northern Ming army were wounded and howled.

"General, look, a team has come under the city gate. There are nearly a thousand of them. At the moment, they are calling the city gate. Can we open it?" the same commander shouted loudly.

Zhan Peng stood behind a battlement and looked down. Sure enough, he saw that a large team wearing the uniforms of the northern Ming army had come to the gate. In contrast, their team still has some combat effectiveness. At least they can put up a defensive formation, with long guns in front to block the approach of the cavalry of the five-star army.

But even so, one or two soldiers will fall to the ground from time to time. Fortunately, the young general who commands the army has some skills. Once something goes wrong, others can always fill the position, and the order of the army is still there.

But everyone knows that this will not last long. So the young general kept looking up and scolding, "they are all fellow robes. Open the gate quickly. Do you want to see so many of us die here?"

Listening to this angry scolding, the northern Ming army guarding the city naturally did not dare to do anything privately, but most people still focused on Zhan Peng and waited for his general to make a decision.

At this time, Zhan Peng's face is very tangled.

When Gao Yulin left, he handed over the Dalu city to him. It was not only a kind of trust, but also a kind of responsibility. It is said that his main task is to guard the city. It is a great achievement not to be occupied by the five-star army. Once the city gate is opened, there will be a certain danger. However, looking at the appearance of other soldiers, if he really did not save his life, it would certainly cool the morale of the army, and it would also be a heavy blow to his command authority. If it was bad, the morale of the army would be chaotic. At that time, how many people would obey when they issued military orders?

"General, please make a decision." several thousand captains gathered around Zhan Peng at this time, with a willing face. Everyone is a soldier. Anyone may encounter danger. If they don't save now, they will be in trouble one day. Will others treat themselves like this?

In the long run, several young players certainly hope that Zhan Peng can make a move, which is saving others and saving themselves.

Originally, Zhan Peng hesitated. Now under the pressure of several thousand captains, the balance in his heart began to tilt. He asked in a deep voice, "if the city gate is opened, will the cavalry of the five-star army be killed into the city?"

This is Zhan Peng's compromise. After hearing this, other young generals flashed a happy look on their faces. A smart and quick reaction commander quickly replied: "it shouldn't be. We can attack with bows and arrows. At that time, as long as the gate is opened fast enough, the five-star army can't rush into the city."

"Yes, general, just look. The cavalry of the five-star army doesn't seem to pay much attention to us. They may not think we will open the city gate. The number of cavalry here is not many, and we should be safe." another commander pointed to the city and explained to Zhan Peng.

Other thousands of commanders also hurriedly expounded the problem from various angles. All they expressed was only one meaning, that is, as long as they moved fast enough and were prepared, the five-star army could not enter the city and could not take advantage of anything.

Looking at everyone's words, Zhan Peng took a deep breath: "OK, I believe you, that's it. Prepare enough bows and arrows and open the city gate in a moment, but be fast. Don't let the enemy cavalry into the city."

"Yes." Zhan Peng finally made a decision, and the other commanders were also very happy. At this time, they all promised with fists. After all, Shangguan is kind, which is not a bad thing for everyone.

Under an order, many archers appeared on the tower of Dalu City, and the city gate was opened from the inside. Hundreds of soldiers of the northern Ming army took the opportunity to rush out of the city gate and shouted to the nearly 1000 colleagues with their backs leaning here: "come on, get back in, we have archers to cover."

"Thanks a lot." the commander, who had been yelling and scolding just now, showed an excited look on his face, and then commanded his soldiers to retreat towards the open city gate. Behind them, the cavalry of the five-star army who wanted to get close was pushed back by thousands of bows and arrows from the city tower, just like forming an arrow net, which was inaccessible.

"Hahaha, it's done." he stared nervously at Zhan Peng under the city. He couldn't help but breathe out easily when he saw that nearly a thousand northern Ming troops were rescued into the city. In any case, he saved thousands of people. At the same time, he can learn from these people what happened outside, why there are five-star cavalry here, and why the northern Ming army will be defeated.

Er didn't wait for Zhan Peng to relax. He didn't wait for him to go under the city tower and ask what happened outside. Suddenly, the situation changed greatly on the battlefield under the city. The cavalry of the five-star army, which was still far away, suddenly gave up the siege of the defeated soldiers of the besieged northern Ming Dynasty, but rushed angrily towards the slowly closing gate of Dalu city.

"Haha, are they crazy? Isn't it too late to come at this time?" on the city tower, when the cavalry peak of the five-star army poured in, several commanders of the northern Ming army on the city tower laughed and laughed at the stupidity of the five-star army.

But soon, a message hit them in the face like a slap in the face, making them instantly change color. "Something bad happened. The Beiming army we saved suddenly turned back. They hurt our soldiers guarding the city gate, occupied it and guarded the gate. For a time, we couldn't get close."

"What?" several thousand captains were surprised. They were all confused. They couldn't figure out why their own people would hurt their own people. They had just saved these people.

Zhan Peng suddenly remembered something after a short surprise and shouted, "I'm afraid those people are not our colleagues at all, but the five-star army disguised. Shit, they're deceived. Hurry, send troops to rush down, recapture the city gate and close it. Hurry."

At this time, Zhan Peng shouted, but at the moment, he was thinking about how easy it was to pull back a game. Under the five-star army's early preparation, specifically under the plan of the new second army commander's farewell, when they opened the gate, they were doomed to failure.

Just last night, a cavalry scout reported that many defeated soldiers of the northern Ming army were found in the direction of Saihan mountain. Please tell me what to do.

After hearing the news, he knew that the development of the war had been out of the original track. According to Yang Chendong's previous analysis, once the war breaks out, the two cavalry divisions of the new second army will face the danger of double attack by the northern Ming army. Therefore, he decides to hold here anyway. With the cavalry brought, he still has a certain advantage.

But when he really led the troops to the foot of Dalu City, the reaction of the northern Ming army in the city was somewhat unexpected. The northern Ming army in the city did not make any moves, so they stood on the tower and allowed them to set up an array and lay tents.

This is the fear of the northern Ming army. Looking at this change, they quickly made a decision to change with the change of the battlefield. Perhaps the previous military plan was well done, but the general who can't change with change is not a general, just a machine.

From the possibility of being attacked by both sides to the inaction of the northern Ming army, the two cavalry divisions of the new second army are safe, but he will not be satisfied with this outcome. He has begun to boldly imagine whether he can find an opportunity to capture Dalu city and completely cut off the back road of hundreds of thousands of northern Ming army?

It is obviously inappropriate to put forward this proposal before. But now, the timid performance of 50000 soldiers in Dalu city makes shebie see hope. It's just that he can't find a breakthrough for a while. Now the scout who came to report the war in the middle of the night opened the Tao window in his heart of farewell, allowing him to see the opportunity and hope to impact Dalu city.

Shebie called Qiao Chao, the first division commander, and Li Jun, the second division commander. After some discussion, they decided to disguise as the northern Ming army to lure the other party to open the city gate.
