The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Chapter 319: Internal and external cooperation to break through Minghua Pass

ooh ooh...

Huang Tong shot down the flagpole above Minghua Pass, which was more than 500 meters away, with a single arrow. The many soldiers behind him burst into deafening cheers.

There was admiration in the depths of their eyes, especially the 20,000 archers he selected, each of them clenched their fists and had a look of admiration on their faces.

They simply could not imagine that a person could use a bow and arrow to shoot at a distance of 500 meters. This kind of archery skill was truly the pinnacle.

"retreat!"

Ye Feng didn't expect that Huang Tong had such powerful archery skills. He was pleasantly surprised. It seemed that the archers led by Huang Tong would become stronger and stronger in the future.

shhhhhh...

Ye Feng turned his horse around and walked quickly towards the camp not far away. The black-armored cavalry and Lady Xinling's cavalry followed closely behind him.

The rest of the soldiers received Ye Feng's order to retreat. Without any doubt, they followed the order and walked towards the camp in an orderly manner.

"Father, how come Ye Feng has such an archer by his side?" Nie Gan was still frightened when he saw the broken flagpole. If Nie Yan had not been quick-eyed and quick-handed to pull him away, the arrow made of tiger bones would have hit him, and even if he didn't die, he would have been seriously injured.

"Ah!" Nie Yan sighed helplessly, his eyes filled with fear, and said, "I'm afraid this ruler of our Song Dynasty is not a simple person."

"He has surrounded himself with great masters and archery experts. It seems that it will be very difficult for us to defend Minghua Pass."

In order not to arouse Nie Yan's suspicion, Zhao Mu slowly said, "General Nie, don't worry. We are the ones defending the city. As long as the king cannot break through the city gate, his army will become weaker and weaker. By then, he will retreat with his soldiers without our attack."

Nie Yan took a deep breath and murmured softly: "I hope so!"

……

Nanyu Palace.

Although it was late at night, the lights were still on.

Zhao Pengju had an angry look on his face. He sat in the main seat in the conference hall, looking at the many advisers and generals on both sides. He had just received news from Minghua Pass that Zhenguojun had led an army of more than 100,000 and had attacked outside Minghua Pass.

"I summoned you all here late at night to tell you a piece of bad news. The Lord of Zhenguo has led an army of more than 100,000 and has already reached Minghua Pass."

When Zhao Pengju's words were heard, more than a dozen people sitting there all looked solemn.

They also didn't expect that Ye Feng's marching speed was so fast.

According to the news before yesterday, Ye Feng was still in Luofu City. In the blink of an eye, more than 100,000 troops have arrived outside Minghua Pass. It is really surprising.

"But the good news is that Ye Feng sent out the first wave of cavalry to charge. There were thousands of them. According to Nie Yan's report, they should have been Ye Feng's most powerful cavalry, the Black Armor Cavalry. However, they were repelled by the archers that Nie Yan had arranged long ago." Zhao Pengju continued to speak to the crowd. As for the fact that Huang Tong shot the target with a sharp arrow from a hundred paces away and cut off the flag of King Nanyu at Minghua Pass, he did not tell everyone.

"Your Majesty, General Nie has 80,000 soldiers stationed at Minghua Pass, plus the 30,000 soldiers brought by the Fourth Young Master, a total of 110,000 soldiers."

"Since the Zhenguojun is attacking the city and his military strength is only equal to that of Minghua Pass, it is almost impossible to break through Minghua Pass in a short time."

Zhu Hua was well aware of the difficulty of a siege. As long as the enemy continued to defend their position and were in a dominant position, and the soldiers defending the city had plenty of arrows, boulders and sticks, it would be very difficult for the enemy to climb up the wall of Minghua Pass.

"General Zhu, you may not know that the state-guarding monarch has many powerful people under his command. General Li of the Black Armor Cavalry is a great master."

Zhao Pengju was very clear about the fighting power of the grandmaster. What he was most worried about now was Li Shanxiao. If he took the opportunity to attack Minghua Pass, it would be very difficult to deal with him.

Everyone fell silent. They also knew that what Zhao Pengju said was true. The strength of a grandmaster was indeed terrifying.

"Your Highness, don't worry too much. The wall of Minghua Pass is more than ten meters high. Even a great master can't step on the wall in one step, and can't resist thousands of troops."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Li Deng spoke slowly.

"That's true."

Zhu Hua also echoed.

"I think we should send some more soldiers to General Nie to reinforce him." Although Zhao Pengju knew that it would be difficult for Ye Feng to break through Minghua Pass, he was also very clear about the importance of Minghua Pass. Once Minghua Pass was broken by Ye Feng, the places close to Minghua Pass would all be lost.

"Your Highness, I think with General Nie's combat experience, if reinforcements are needed, he will definitely ask for it. Since he didn't ask for it, it proves that he is still confident of defending Minghua Pass." Li Deng was very familiar with Nie Yan's combat ability. He was a general who had experienced many battles.

"In that case, let's send someone to keep an eye on the situation at Minghua Pass at all times." Zhao Pengju did not continue to pester, but nodded and gave the order.

"As ordered!"

Li Deng agreed.

……

Three days passed quietly.

Every day Ye Feng would send Li Shanxiao with the black-armored cavalry to pretend to attack the city, but every time after the enemy shot a barrage of arrows at them, they would turn around and leave.

This went on for three consecutive days, making the many soldiers on Minghua Pass a little tired. They couldn't help but want to rush out of Minghua Pass and fight with the charging cavalry.

It was not until late at night on the third day that a soldier was seen quickly coming to the military camp and soon arrived at Ye Feng’s central military tent.

"Your Excellency Zhenguojun, I am here on the orders of General Zhao to inform you. Tonight at midnight, it is the turn of General Zhao's soldiers to guard the gate of Minghua Pass. When the time comes, please lead the army and quickly charge into Minghua Pass." The soldier who reported the news said to Ye Feng.

"Go back and tell General Zhao Mu that I will lead the army in advance and pretend to charge towards Minghua Pass. After three days of harassment, the defenders on the city wall must be very tired and will not take it too seriously. Then we can rush into Minghua Pass naturally." During the past three days, Ye Feng arranged for Li Shanxiao to lead the black-armored cavalry to harass Minghua Pass. His real purpose was to wait for Zhao Mu to open the gate of Minghua Pass and rush into the pass with other soldiers.

"Subordinates resign!"

The soldier who reported the news turned around and walked out of the tent.

Ye Feng immediately gathered Li Shanxiao and others.

"General Li, at midnight tonight, you lead the cavalry and continue to pretend to attack Minghua Pass. I will lead the rest of the soldiers to charge into Minghua Pass."

Ye Feng looked at Li Shanxiao and still ordered him to charge forward to conceal his whereabouts.

Half an hour before midnight, Li Shanxiao led the black-armored cavalry, ready to go, and rushed out towards Minghua Pass with cheers.

Ye Feng looked at Sun Zizai, Ge Qing, Madam Xinling, and Su Qingzhi, and said, "You lead your soldiers and follow me into Minghua Pass."

"Charge into Minghua Pass?"

Su Qingzhi and others were a little stunned. They didn't understand how they could break into Minghua Pass. If they could break into Minghua Pass so easily, they wouldn't have to stay here for three consecutive days.

(I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year and a happy family!)
