On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Northern Yan regarded military merit as the highest honor, and this country was very strange.

They only accept victory and not failure. That is to say, if a general leads his troops to attack a country privately, the court generally will not care. What the court cares about is whether you win or not.

If you win, the court will be very happy and will reward the general leading the team according to normal wartime honors, but if you lose... you'd better not go back, because you will die if you go back.

This was the reason why General Beiyan selfishly helped Gu Yunsong before.

Lin Zhenxian knew their character, so he was certain that when the soldiers defending the city saw a group of fearless Daqian soldiers shouting downstairs, they would definitely send cavalry out of the city to fight.

At that time, he can use his ultimate weapon.

Eight-Ox Crossbow.

Lin Zhenxian loved this Eight Ox Crossbow, which had been improved by Lin Zhen, and brought it with him when he attacked Nanchu last time. However, because Nanchu had more warships than horses and no large-scale cavalry, it was not used.

This time, he must kill well.

He Mingyuan pointed at the map and said, "Your Highness, we are alone this time. Do you think we should first contact the Korean side to prevent those Koreans from turning against us and helping Northern Yan and then encircling us?"

"No," Lin Zhenxian said, "South Korea itself lacks talented generals, and our trade with them is booming. They won't attack suddenly."

The fat man said, "Your Highness is right. Ever since the old emperor Han Tianhong lost confidence after being defeated by the Qin State, he no longer dared to take the initiative to provoke trouble."

"But I'm still worried. After all, the Xuanhe Clan is currently at loggerheads with the Crown Prince. If they instigate Han Tianhong to stab us in the back... there are wolves and tigers ahead, and I'm afraid our limited force won't be able to hold out for a few days."

"Hmm..." Lin Zhenxian also knew about the conflict between Xuanhemen and Lin Zhen.

Leading troops to fight is not like treating them to a meal. You cannot be careless, you cannot be careless, and you cannot let your guard down.

But in the current situation, it is not possible to divide the troops to guard the rear. What should we do?

Lin Zhenxian looked at the fat man and said, "Little Fatty, I order you to take two hundred men to guard Chenghua Avenue! Keep an eye on the movements in the direction of South Korea at all times. No mistakes!"

"Ah!?" The fat man opened his mouth wide, "Grandpa Lin..."

"Huh? How dare you! The military uses titles!"

"General! You can't give orders like that! I promise I'll be the first to reach the Dingxiang city wall!"

"Stop talking nonsense. You have no right to bargain on important military matters." No one dared to offend Lin Zhenxian's mighty power.

But who is Fatty? If you ask him to guard the rear, it would be worse than asking a dog to do it.

How could he possibly stay back there so peacefully?

After Lin Zhenxian gave the order, he no longer looked at him, which showed that he had made up his mind.

The fat man thought that he could chop off a few more heads of Beiyan people in this surprise attack, but what did he chop off now?

He sat dejectedly in a chair on the other side, silent.

He Mingyuan immediately noticed that he looked a little dissatisfied.

This raid was crucial, and not even the slightest mistake could be made. So he took the initiative and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you let me guard the rear? Xiaopang is very skilled in martial arts, and you can bring him with you as a vanguard general, and he can also boost morale when we ascend the city walls."

Lin Zhenxian turned around with an eagle-like gaze and saw the fat man's excited face, and snorted coldly.

"Hmph, whatever, just give him a chance."

"Thank you, Marshal!"

"Don't thank me. I'm telling you, if you can't get up to the tower when I ask you to, I'll..."

The fat man interrupted, "Just twist off my head and use it as a chamber pot!"

"Ha, ha ha ha." Lin Zhenxian was so angry that he laughed at his call of "fat old man". He waved his hand and told him to do what he had to do.

The ship continued to move forward and stopped a hundred miles south of Dingxiang City. Five thousand soldiers and horses disembarked on bamboo rafts and successfully reached the shore.

This is a hilly area with undulating mountains, but the slopes are not steep and are far less majestic than the Taihang Mountains.

The troops were in good order, with their swords, spears, and halberds in order, and lined up on the shore.

Only a few generals in the entire army had horses.

There is no way around it. It's not that Daqian lacks horses, but the horses take up too much space on the ship.

Besides, this is a surprise attack, and there are too many horses, which will make too much noise. If the initiative is lost because of this, Lin Zhenxian will regret it to death.

At this moment, the old prince who had experienced many battles was riding on a horse, holding a long sword in his hand and a huge bow on his back.

There are only a handful of people in the entire Daqian who can pull this bow.

Thirty years ago, Lin Zhenxian used this bow to shoot and kill Han Feng, the greatest general of South Korea, from two hundred steps away, thus becoming famous throughout the world.

“Soldiers!!”

Lin Zhenxian, reining in his clothes, patrolled back and forth in front of the five thousand soldiers, bellowing, "Those bastards of Northern Yan took advantage of Daqian's weakness to launch a surprise attack on Dai County, killing and wounding countless civilians, including women and children! Afterwards, not only did they refuse to admit their mistakes, they accused us of turning the tables. Today, I will lead you to avenge your humiliation!"

"Shame before the snow!"

"Shame before the snow!"

"Shame before the snow!"

"All soldiers, listen to my orders and follow me!"

Lin Zhenxian whipped his horse's butt and went to the front of the team. The team began to move forward slowly, with food and supplies following closely behind.

For this team, there is no such thing as "food and supplies must be sent before troops move forward".

What the hell is going on first?

In Lin Zhenxian's words, you only need to eat one meal before attacking the city, and the rest of the time you can eat Beiyan's food.

This is what Lin Zhen said, fight to support the war, fight wherever you can, rob whatever you can, and eat whatever you can.

......

The person in charge of guarding Dingxiang City was General Yan Heping of Northern Yan.

Although he was called a general, he was actually just a seventh-rank lieutenant general. Because he was responsible for guarding Dingxiang and guarding against Qin and Han, he was almost a transparent existence in the eyes of the court for many years.

It's because these two countries are so cowardly.

Yan Heping had thought about sending troops on his own, but Dingxiang City did not have many armaments, with only two thousand cavalry at most. Attacking the city with such a small number of troops would be tantamount to seeking death.

As a result, he had almost no channels for promotion.

A while ago, I heard that there were bandits at Yanmen Pass. The imperial court was very angry and sent troops from several surrounding counties to suppress the bandits.

He originally wanted to go, but the court said that the safety of Dingxiang City was of vital importance, so he was exempted from the qualification to send troops.

Yan Heping was so angry that he cursed, but there was nothing he could do. He had to continue to stay in the city, drinking every day and watching beauties dance. His life was not comfortable, but it was free and easy.

But once a person becomes comfortable, he will start to miss the stories of the past days of war and war, and always want to relive them again.

Yan Heping had such an idea, but he just didn't have the opportunity.

At this moment, in the government office, the county magistrate invited him to watch the dance at a banquet.

The girls were all pretty and tall, their white thighs faintly visible as they danced.

However, Yan Heping didn't feel anything and lowered his head to take a sip of wine.
