Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Huang Zhong led a force of one thousand troops and marched quickly towards Biyang County.  In order to capture the city, this army was not purely a crossbowmen, but a combination of sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen.

    Along the way, Huang Zhong was secretly determined. He must do this well, otherwise it would not be a complete victory.

    As a veteran general in the Jingzhou Army, Huang Zhong is well aware of the organization and combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Army, and he also has some understanding of today's Li Zhe Army. This is also the reason why Li Zhe finally ordered Huang Zhong. This Huang Zhong is the real  He is an old man in the army, but with his experience in leading troops, Li Zhe is the well-deserved number one.

    In Huang Zhong¡¯s opinion, the physical fitness of the soldiers in Li Zhe¡¯s army is not particularly good, and their combat skills are only average, but their mental outlook and discipline quality are much stronger.

    The soldiers in Li Zhe's army are all strong men of refugee origin, and they have extremely fanatical beliefs in Li Zhe. Fighting for Li Zhe is the so-called holy war, and their morale is naturally different.  Moreover, these soldiers work together and train together every day, and have a strong sense of discipline. They are built according to a real standing army, which is different from the soldiers under most warlords at this time.

    Therefore, in Huang Zhong's eyes, such soldiers can barely meet the standards of elite troops in the hands of princes everywhere. The so-called elite soldiers should follow orders and stop prohibitions. This is the right way.  At this time, although the soldiers in Li Zhe's army were still immature in their skills with swords, guns and sticks, they were already somewhat elite in the execution of discipline.

    "If such an elite soldier is in his own hands, if he doesn't fight beautifully, how can he be worthy of this magic weapon in someone's hand?"  Huang Zhong stroked the long sword with a phoenix mouth in his hand, feeling full of pride in his heart!  This is re-entering the battlefield!

    Twenty miles away, it only took a few hours, so we rushed there.  When we arrived outside the city, the city was still looking normal. A few of Shi Shiran's soldiers were guarding the city gate. When they saw a dark army approaching, they were immediately shocked.

    Huang Zhong looked around. Although all the sergeants were extremely tired from the long march and their faces were dripping with sweat, the excitement in their eyes was getting stronger, with expressions of eagerness to try.

    "Sergeants! The general in the city, Cai He, is just a kid. Before my army arrives, he will probably be scared to death. Now, my lord's power has spread far and wide, and the enemy's army is invincible. We can't let him run away.  "

    "Exactly! The general is right! We must not let him run away!" A leader next to him responded.

    "In this case, the soldiers are so tired, but they still have the courage, will you follow me to attack the city immediately?" Huang Zhong sat on the horse, holding the phoenix-billed sword high in one hand and shouted!

    "Yes! Yes! Yes!" All the warriors were eager to win and shouted in unison.

    "Okay! Come with me then?" Say it!  Taking the lead, they rushed towards the city gate.  Immediately, the soldiers behind him shouted at the top of their lungs, setting off a mountain-like tsunami, and followed the killing general up.

    When they arrived at the city gate, several of the city defenders were stunned and still in a daze. Huang Zhong was the first to stand up and shoot two of them with two arrows. The others saw that their posture was not right and immediately fled with a bang.  The soldiers stepped forward and pushed, and the originally narrow city gate was opened. Cai He was an incompetent and timid person, and he had not yet had time to organize a defense.

    Huang Zhong led the troops, who poured into the city like a tide, and went straight to important places such as government offices, barracks and warehouses, among other things.

    When they arrived at the barracks, the crossbowmen held the door and fired randomly, killing hundreds of them immediately. The soldiers in the barracks didn't have any armor or weapons in their hands, so how could they resist.  He was immediately surrounded by the influx of Li Zhe's legions, and had to crawl on his knees and surrender. The moment he tried to protest, he was attacked with swords, and several more lives were lost in vain.

    But in the official office, Cai He really ran away.  These dandy boys really can't expect anything.  After learning that the city had been breached, this guy made a decisive decision and led his cronies on horses to escape without hesitation. He even piled several large carts of gold, silver, cloth and silk looted from the local area outside the compound.  Incredible.  After this guy got the news of Li Zhe's entry, he didn't think of any other preparations. The only thing he thought about was this.

    Old Huang Zhong is a little regretful. After all, he still hasn't accomplished all his work. Who would have thought that this descendant of the Cai family could escape so quickly?  It was really eye-opening.

    Biyang County fell into the hands of Li Zhejun.

    After occupying the city, Huang Zhong quickly cleaned up the city, maintained order, took care of the prisoners, and dealt with important places such as the county government and county treasury one by one. He simply arranged the city defense and waited for the arrival of the army.

    But at this time, Li Zhe's army, which was only twenty miles away, was in trouble.

    The dozen or so Qilin Guard groups that Li Zhe dispersed retreated one after another. From the avenue, an elite cavalry force rushed over at lightning speed - Wenpin!

    Wenpin¡¯s army finally appeared, and the forward force of one thousand cavalry troops had already left Li Zhe¡¯s army.It¡¯s only a few kilometers away!

    This Wenpin is indeed worthy of being called the general of Jingzhou!

    Wan County is a hundred and twenty miles away from here. Within two days, its vanguard army has arrived very close. It is indeed a well-trained army.  Li Zhe had also learned about Wenpin in detail. He was the leading general under Liu Biao in Jingzhou. In history, when he guarded Jiangxia, he defeated Guan Yu and intimidated Sun Quan several times. He defended the city like a mainstay during the sieges of the two families.  .  Even Cao Cao had great trust in him. He moved him to the post of general, granted him the title of new Yehou, and praised him as a famous general. Among the generals in Jingzhou, his ability was no less than that of Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, who were famous in later generations.

    Today, Wenpin has shown its due strength.

    But even so, what does Li Zhe have to fear? He can only hire three thousand soldiers, so what's the point?

    At that moment, Li Zhe ordered the Qilin Guards to move forward and take cover. The baggage soldiers and militiamen under his jurisdiction began to prepare weapons, set up their positions, and prepare for defense. The remaining formal soldiers began to hurriedly put on their armor and check.  Ordnance.

    Soon, the Qilin Guards and the enemy's cavalry came forward and joined the formation. The two armies collided. After a burst of crossbows and crossbows passed by, the enemy troops were dispersed.  However, after the opponent's cavalry suffered a loss, they did not retreat. Instead, they circled far away and spread a large net, bypassing it from all directions and heading straight towards Li Zhe's army.  But I must come and visit Li Zhe's formation.

    At this time, the formation was heavily guarded. The militiamen arranged their carts into an array along the perimeter like a Great Wall to block the cavalry from charging into the formation. Soldiers stood in the formation holding military crossbows.  When the cavalry is close, there will be a flurry of bows and crossbows. When the cavalry is far away, it will be ignored.  Facing this scattered cavalry attack, the sergeants of each battalion were strictly ordered not to act rashly, and were allowed to rush back and forth on the outside.

    Not long after, the sun set in the west and the sky became dark. This group of pioneer cavalry saw that they had no advantage to take advantage of and suffered a lot of losses. At this time, they were already running out of horsepower and had to retreat slowly.

    This is how the first contact between Wenpin's Pioneer Army and Li Zhe's army ended.
