It's better to be an empress than a county magistrate

Tang Yi's face darkened. "Second brother, don't be anxious. First, see who the other party is and how many soldiers they have."

"Send someone else out to check."

The guard agreed, turned around and left quickly.

When Lu Xingchen and his companions arrived outside Tang City, they were not in a hurry and set up camp first.

Setting up camp is also a compulsory course in military training.

Therefore, regardless of whether the camp could play a role in resisting the enemy, Lu Xingchen would always be particularly careful when setting up camp.

Setting up camp was something her troops had trained for many times.

So the soldiers found a place to be stationed and began to build the camp in an orderly manner.

The fireman started to set up the pot and cook.

Pei Jun looked at the scene in front of him and secretly admired it.

Regardless of how Lu Xingchen's troops perform in actual combat, judging from the current situation, they are a very qualified team.

He once served in the regular army of the Great Qi State for a long time.

Even the regular army of that time was far inferior to Lu Xingchen's troops now.

Lu Xingchen's team obeyed orders, performed their duties, and operated in an orderly manner.

Tang Yi did not get accurate information about Lu Xingchen.

All we know roughly is that they are soldiers from Jizhou and their commander's surname is Lu.

Tang Yi frowned, "What the hell are the soldiers from Jizhou doing here? This place belongs to Yongzhou."

"The soldiers of Yongzhou can't do anything to me, so what can your soldiers of Jizhou do to me?"

"Yes, big brother." The second brother Yan Feihu stood up and slammed his sledgehammer heavily on the ground.

"Just let me go out and meet them."

"I heard that there were only 3,000 soldiers and horses."

"This is our territory. The right time, right place, and right people are all on our side. We can't be afraid of him."

Tang Yi nodded, "Then you should send 500 soldiers to meet them. Be extra careful and don't rush ahead."

Yan Feihu agreed, "Don't worry, big brother."

"I will definitely tear off the head of that guy surnamed Lu."

"Let him know that the people of Tang City are not so easy to bully."

Tang Yi nodded and sent two reliable generals to follow Yan Feihu.

Yan Feihu led five hundred elite soldiers out of Tang City.

Lu Xingchen did not bring all his troops with him, but only brought a few hundred people to challenge Tang City.

She saw the gate of Tang City open, and dozens of cavalrymen and hundreds of infantrymen ran out of Tang City.

"Commander, I want to fight this time." Ling Xiao was eager to try.

"You are the chief guard of the commander-in-chief. Who will protect the governor when you go into battle?" Zhang Fan said.

"You were the one who fought last time, and it's my turn this time." Ling Xiao glared at Zhang Fan.

"If Ling Xiao wants to go, let him go." Lu Xingchen looked at Ling Xiao lovingly.

The young man, who was full of vigor and vitality, became even more excited when he received Lu Xingchen's order.

"Wei Hu, you go with Ling Xiao and protect him a little." Lu Xingchen turned his head and reminded Wei Hu.

"It's just that the commander-in-chief spoils you." Zhang Fan snorted.

"The commander-in-chief is just being nice to me. What do you want?" Ling Xiao raised his head proudly.

After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he rode his horse forward.

Wei Hu and his men followed on his flank.

"We don't know the other party's moves, so we have to be careful. If the other party wants to escape, we must not chase them." Wei Hu warned.

"I know. Don't worry." Ling Xiao said.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking my Tang City?" Yan Feihu raised the hammer in his hand and pointed at Ling Xiao and asked.

"You are a bunch of bandits who have occupied Tang City, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of atrocities. You even killed officials appointed by the imperial court. Of course, we were sent by the imperial court to fight against you." Ling Xiao shouted.

"Bullshit!" Yan Feihu cursed, "You are soldiers from Jizhou, and this is the territory of Yongzhou."

"Minding other people's business is too much."

"They are all the territories of the imperial court, no matter whether they are from Jizhou or Yongzhou. As long as you are thieves and we are officials, the officials must catch thieves. Look, I will chop off your head today." Ling Xiao said, holding up the spear in his hand.

"That depends on whether you have the ability to do it. You little brat who hasn't even fully grown his hair, I'm going to twist your head today." Yan Feihu cursed loudly and urged his horse forward.

The atmosphere was already set at this point, and the two sides soon came into close combat.

Although Yan Feihu is short, he is very strong and is a power-type player.

Ling Xiao is young after all, and he is no match for Yan Feihu in terms of strength.

After one round, Ling Xiao saw through his opponent's moves.

He urged his horse forward and thrust his silver spear straight into Yan Feihu's face.

Yan Feihu used his right hammer to open it. Ling Xiao held the gun in one hand, and with his left hand he pulled out the short blade on his calf and directly cut the blood vessels on Yan Feihu's wrist.

Blood gushed out from his wrist.

Yan Feihu was horrified and wanted to use another sledgehammer to block Ling Xiao, but it was too late.

Ling Xiao's spear pierced into Yan Feihu's throat like a silver snake.

Yan Feihu fell off his horse.

The soldiers on Lu Xingchen's side cheered.

Lu Xingchen was also particularly satisfied with Ling Xiao's performance.

In a few years, Ling Xiao will become one of her powerful generals.

Yan Feihu was killed, and Tang Cheng's soldiers returned to the city with his body.

Tang Yi stood on the city wall and watched the battle, feeling heartbroken.

This is his half-brother, they had kowtowed to each other and sworn an oath of brotherhood.

"Brother, I'm going to kill them." The third brother was furious and gnashed his teeth.

"Don't go out. We are no match for the other side. Going out will only lead to death." Tang Yi said.

After all, they were not regular soldiers before. Some of them were ironworkers, some were farmers...

Although they conducted daily drills after occupying Tang City, there was still a big gap between them and real soldiers.

"Strengthen the defense!" Tang Yi gave the order.

""Carry all the rolling logs, stones, copper oil pans, iron pots, bows and arrows, and all the defense equipment to the top of the city wall."

The officers and soldiers of Tang City immediately took action.

"You fought well." Lu Xingchen's face was full of admiration.

She patted Ling Xiao's shoulder heavily.

"Ling Xiao, you're even more powerful now."

Ling Xiao's face turned slightly red when he received Lu Xingchen's praise, but he was very excited inside.

Feixue looked at Lingxiao with admiration.

When did this kid become so powerful?

"You fought well. I underestimated you before." Zhang Fan also came over and said with a smile.

"Thank you brother for giving me this opportunity." Ling Xiao acted low-key.

"This kid actually knows how to be humble." Zhang Fan laughed.

Ling Xiao fought well in this battle, at least it boosted morale.

Pei Jun didn't expect Ling Xiao's personal ability to be so strong.

It is obvious that Ling Xiao's fighting power is not the strongest among Lu Xingchen's generals.

Even so, he defeated Yan Feihu in five rounds.

As you can imagine, the others will be even more powerful.

"Okay, next we will start training how to attack the city." Lu Xingchen gave an order.

Ling Xiao's killing of Yan Feihu was just an appetizer.

Faced with such tall walls as Tang City, the next test the soldiers will face is how to attack.
