"General, the wolf cavalry have all arrived.”
Outside Nanyang County, General Zhang Liao of Lantian looked at the city under the night sky with a stern look in his eyes.
The Nanyang County Chief was an official of the Great Qin Dynasty. When he encountered Liu Bang's rebel army, he did not even shoot an arrow and openly surrendered. He was still appointed by the rebel army as the Nanyang County Chief, so he deserved to die.
"Order the wolf cavalry to prepare to attack the city!"
"Yes!"
For three days and three nights, they continued to attack. Apart from the 50,000 infantry who stayed outside the Wu Pass, they surrounded the rebel army.
The remaining 30,000 wolf cavalry, under Zhang Liao's leadership, galloped through Nanyang County. By now, more than half of the county had been recovered.
As long as they could take down Nanyang County, then Liu Bang's retreat would be completely cut off.
As the night grew darker, the thirty thousand wolf cavalry dismounted and assembled siege weapons. They were the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou that were comparable to the Xiliang Army at the end of the Han Dynasty.
They could fight when they were on the horse, and they were also good men when they were off the horse. It could be said that they had both cavalry.
.......
It was four o'clock in the morning.
Nanyang County's Wan County was pitch-black. On the city wall, the county soldiers in charge of guarding the city were tottering. The early autumn days were the most tiring.
"Eh, why do I seem to hear something?”
A soldier who hadn't slept very well was about to get up to take a piss. He looked out of the city wall and saw that he couldn't even see his own fingers.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, countless arrows flew across the sky, bringing with them endless killing intent. The soldier didn't even have time to say anything before he fell into a pool of blood, gradually turning into a cold corpse.
"Wolf cavalry, charge! Break the city!"
Zhang Liao, who was on horseback, waved his hand. The tens of thousands of wolf cavalry behind him held their ring-head sabers and lifted the scaling ladder. Just like that, they charged towards Wan County.
These wolf cavalry were the most elite soldiers of the 100,000 soldiers of Bingzhou. Dealing with a group of soldiers was as easy as blowing off dust.
"Shua Shua"
After a while, dozens of ladders appeared on the city wall of Wan County, and figures quickly climbed up.
"Puff!"
The county soldiers who were lucky enough to escape the rain of arrows had their throats slit by the sharp ring-headed sabers of the wolf cavalry and died just like that.
As more and more wolf cavalry rushed up the city wall, the city wall was completely occupied by the Qin army.
"Creak!"
As a dull sound echoed in the dark night, the heavy city gate of Wan County slowly opened toward Liangce until a wide avenue was revealed.
"All troops, attack and take down Wan City!”
At this moment, Zhang Liao did not hesitate at all. He immediately raised his spear and took the lead to rush towards the city gate of Wan County.
"Da da da! Ta, ta, ta!"
The twenty thousand wolf cavalry, which had been waiting for a long time, galloped towards Nanyang County like a tide.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The Wan County guards were awakened by the shouts from all directions. They hurriedly put on their armor and weapons in an attempt to stop the Qin army.
However, before they could get their hands on the spears and axes in the armory, countless wolf riders charged out in the night and killed them all.
"Xiu! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The army that Ying Ze Jiu had summoned from the system all had a unique characteristic. Each cavalryman had a Qin crossbow.
There was no need to aim at all. He took out his Qin Crossbow and shot out countless black triple-edged arrows at the defending soldiers.
"Puff!"
One by one, the defenders were hit by the arrows, and blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the ground of Wan County red.
Soon after, countless wolf cavalry held spears in their hands, and their attacks were extremely fierce. The defenseless Wan County defenders were unable to fight back in front of them, and they fell in a pool of blood.
The defense of the entire Wan County garrison was completely torn apart by the wolf cavalry. The morale of the other side dropped to the extreme, and they were unable to even resist.
"Those who surrender will kneel down and not be killed!"
After a round of killing, the defenders in the city had already shown signs of defeat. Zhang Liao took the opportunity to raise his spear and shout.
The 30,000 wolf cavalry behind him shouted in the dark night,""Those who surrender will kneel down and not be killed!"
Nanyang County was an old county that had been occupied by the Qin State for many years. It was only second to Guanzhong. The people here were loyal to the Qin State because they were deceived by the county governor.
As long as they were properly guided, they would still be Great Qin's strong shield. Zhang Liao had done the same in Nanyang County, and he quickly armed a large number of Qin soldiers.
"Clang!"
Under the orders of the Qin army, the defenders in the city put down their weapons and knelt down. Surrender was everywhere.
"The situation in Nanyang has been decided!"
Seeing this scene, General Zhang Liao revealed a trace of a smile. As long as they took down Wan County, Nanyang County would return to Great Qin's embrace, and Liu Bang's forces would be completely cut off.
"General, the Nanyang Prefecture Guard has arrived."
At this moment, a few wolf riders walked over with a fatty in disheveled clothes. It was obvious that they had just captured the Nanyang County Guard from the bed in County Governor Manor.
"You are the Nanyang Guardian of the Great Qin Empire?"
Zhang Liao, the general of Lantian, said in a deep voice.
"Pa!"
The fat man in disheveled clothes collapsed on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, wailing,"General, please spare my life, please spare my life!”
Who knew that Zhang Liao would wave his hand, and the wolf cavalry on both sides would bring Nanyang County Guard up and face him.
"The Nanyang County Chief of the Great Qin Empire, what a good county chief for the country and the people. He is truly benevolent. The rebel army passed by without harming anyone.”
Hearing this, the Nanyang Guardian trembled and sweat kept dripping down his face. How could he not understand the sarcasm in the other party's words?
As the Nanyang Mayor appointed by Great Qin, he did not lead his soldiers to defend against the rebel army and instead openly surrendered to the rebels. This was an extremely heinous crime!
