A month later.
"General, Niu Yin Mountain is in front of us. After crossing Niu Yin Mountain, we will reach the land of Ji Prefecture.”
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Dong Song nodded.
In fact, even without Jia Xu's introduction, Dong Song knew that Niu Yin Mountain was right in front of them.
Not long ago, after Dong Song received his monthly salary of 1,000 points, he used 100 points to buy a 3D map of the burly man from the system store.
This map was currently in Dong Song's mind. As long as Dong Song thought about it, he would know where he was and if there were any roads or rivers ahead.
Jia Xu held a tattered sheepskin map in his hand. Seeing Dong Song nod, Jia Xu continued,"After passing through Niu Yin Mountain, we will reach Upper Qu Yang not far ahead. Now that Upper Qu Yang has been occupied by the Yellow Turban bandits, we will have to slow down after passing through Niu Yin Mountain. Then, when the army arrives, we will attack Qu Yang and occupy it.”
"As long as we can occupy Qu Yang, our Western Liang Army will have a bridgehead in Jizhou.”
As Jia Xu finished speaking, Dong Song asked from the side,""How many troops are stationed in Qu Yang?"
"There aren't many troops stationed in Upper Quyang, only about five thousand. The general guarding the city is called Gao Feng, and I heard that he's the younger brother of Zhang Bao's general Gao Sheng.”
After hearing Jia Xu's words, Dong Song continued,""Since there are only 5,000 people in Qu Yang, why should we slow down? Could it be that they had not had enough of these days of living in the open?”
Laughter rang out all around.
"Give the order. After the army passes through Niu Yin Mountain, quickly advance forward. Tonight, we will rest in Qu Yang.”
After the order was given, Jia Xu said to Dong Song,"The Yellow Turban bandits in Upper Quyang don't know that our army has arrived. They must be on guard now. Under such circumstances, we can send elite soldiers to disguise as commoners and sneak into the city. When night falls, we can coordinate from the inside and outside. It shouldn't be difficult to take down Qu Yang.”
"There's no need to go through so much trouble!"
Dong Song smiled at Jia Xu." Just like you said, the Yellow Turban bandits don't know that my army has arrived. Not only are they not on guard, they must have opened the city gates. In addition, the quality of the Yellow Turban bandits 'soldiers is not high. Under such circumstances, we can completely charge straight at the gates of Quyang.”
Without waiting for Jia Xu to speak, Dong Song directly gave the order.
"Follow Li Cunxiao and take down the city gate of Qu Yang at lightning speed. The rest of you, wait for them to take down the city gate of Qu Yang and then quickly follow up.”
"But General…"
Without waiting for Jia Xu to finish speaking, Dong Song waved his hand at Jia Xu." Wen He, the most important thing you should do now is to draft a document to report the good news.”
The reason Dong Song made such a plan was not because he was reckless and ignorant.
It was because Dong Song had learned from the 3D map that the terrain outside of Upper Qu Yang was flat and there was a large forest. This large forest was less than 500 steps away from Upper Qu Yang.
In other words, with the help of this forest, the vanguard army could quietly approach Qu Yang and launch a surprise attack.
If it wasn't for the fact that the city gates were too narrow, Dong Song was worried that the army would be threatened by the archers if they slowed down.
Dong Song could even lead 3,000 soldiers into the city.
The facts proved that Dong Song was right, but when Li Cunxiao led the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun out of the forest, the Yellow Turban soldiers on the city wall did not react at all.
Of course, when they saw Li Cunxiao and the Eighteen Cavalrymen of Yanyun, some of them were suspicious. However, no one believed that the enemy would use nineteen cavalrymen to attack Qu Yang.
This was no different from courting death.
Under the watchful eyes of the Yellow Turban soldiers, Li Cunxiao led the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun and rushed into Upper Quyang through the city gate without any obstructions.
The Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the city didn't react until the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun shot a wave length arrow at the Yellow Turban soldiers near the city gate.
The Yellow Turban soldiers who reacted were about to arrive when they saw a large group of government cavalry rushing out of the forest in the distance.
Seeing the well-equipped government cavalry, these Yellow Turban soldiers who had just put down their hoes did not dare to resist. They hurriedly threw away the miscellaneous weapons in their hands and knelt on the ground.
"Wenhe, have you finished writing the good news document I asked you to write before?”
"General, I didn't expect to take down Shang Qu Yang so easily. There are only three words written on the report.”
As he rode into Upper Quyang, Dong Song pointed at the Yellow Turban soldiers kneeling on the ground and said,""They are actually a group of commoners who have thrown away their hoes. It is still possible for them to fight a good battle or defend the city. Once they lost their support, they would not have the courage to fight against the government troops. Therefore, it was not surprising that they could take down Shang Qu Yang so quickly.”
"Of course, we can't underestimate them, because their numbers are huge.”
