Rumble…Oh oh oh…
On the way to Border Town, four Great Gan soldiers on Scaled Horses were fleeing in front, while dozens of Iron Wolf Tribe cavalry were chasing after them.
These four people were none other than the Hundred Generals and the others who had escaped from North Wind City and headed to Border Town to report.
After receiving the order, the hundred generals led a group of soldiers and charged out from the west gate. They took a detour and headed south. Not long after they charged out, they were intercepted by the barbarian wolf cavalry.
Now, only the four of them were left.
Swoosh swoosh…
Behind them, the barbarian wolf cavalry, which was more than a hundred meters away, chased after them and shot arrows from time to time, trying to stop the four of them.
The army had yet to arrive, and the news of the vanguard occupying North Wind City could not be made known to Da Qian.
"Lord Hundred Generals, we'll cover you. Leave quickly!”
Seeing that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, the three soldiers at the back looked at each other and roared. They turned their horses around and charged at the pursuers.
"Come back, come back with me!" Hearing his subordinate's words, the Hundred Generals 'expressions changed drastically. Without waiting to stop them, the three of them had already turned their horses around and charged towards the pursuers.
Helpless, the hundred generals could only urge their scaled horses and turn back to look at the soldiers chasing them with tears in their eyes.
The three Great Gan soldiers charged forward fearlessly. After killing two barbarian wolf cavalrymen, they were drowned in the enemy army. When the barbarian wolf cavalrymen passed by, only three ownerless scaled horses were left. They only stopped after charging for more than ten meters.
"Ha, ha!"
The Hundred Generals urged their warhorses to speed up again.
He couldn't let his brothers die in vain. He had to bring the general's feelings back to Town Border City and tell the general stationed there.
……
Three days later, in Border Town, the 150,000 strong army of the Barbarian Wolves approached and set up camp 20 miles away.
Meanwhile, the Black Forest Guards didn't receive any news from Border Town until the barbarian wolf army was within a hundred miles of them.
The Black Forest Guards had a total of 50,000 soldiers. Other than the one guarding North Wind City, the rest had a total of 47,000 soldiers stationed in Border Town.
Lu Da's face was as black as the bottom of a pot when he saw the barbarian wolf army that had stopped five miles away.
"General, there is no news from North Wind City. Presumably, it is, it is completely annihilated.”
A tiger fang general said in a deep voice.
“…….”The words of his subordinate made Lu Da's face darken even more.
How could he not understand such a simple question? Did he still need to say it?
"Send a messenger to inform the Great General.”
"Here!"
The tiger fang general also knew that he was talking nonsense. After respectfully agreeing, he turned around and made arrangements.
Soon, a troop of soldiers carrying flags rushed out of the south gate and headed toward Youzhou City.
The moment the banner-carrying knight rushed out, the city gate behind him closed with a loud bang.
…….
"General, do you want to send heavy armored cavalry to charge for a while and force them back?”A general suggested.
"You're going?" Lu Da turned his head and glared at the general as he shouted.
" Uh..." Looking at the 100,000 strong army outside the city, this general could only shut his mouth.
These barbarian wolf armies were obviously on guard against Zhen Bian City, providing cover for the army that was building camps.
Although the other party had come from afar and was considered a tired army, they still had 100,000 soldiers.
Where were the Black Forest Guards? Forty-seven thousand soldiers, even if they gathered the people in the city, they could only gather a few tens of thousands of young men at most.
If they sent an army out of the city, they would be swallowed up by the other party if there were too few of them, but not if there were too many.
"Let's wait for the general to send reinforcements.”
"In addition, order all the cities to guard the city gates. The enemy is already at the city gates, we have no way out.”
"Here!" The generals behind him all bowed in agreement.
Lu Da also turned around and brought his personal guards down the city tower, leaving the city wall for his subordinates to defend.
As the general of a guard, he had many things to deal with.
This was especially so before the great war.
The enemy had just arrived today and was exhausted. It was impossible for them to attack the city, so there was still time for Border Town to perfect its defenses.
…….
"Report!"
In the Youzhou Governor's Office, the messenger carried the military flag and rushed into the hall. Qi Lun, the Marquis of Zhenbei and the general of the army, looked at the messenger who had entered the hall and his expression changed.
"General, the 150,000 barbarian wolf army has arrived at Border Town. They have set up camp 20 miles outside the city.”
" What?!"
Hearing the messenger's words, Qilun stood up with a shocked expression.
The Barbarian Wolf Army had appeared in Border Town, but there had been no news from them. As for North Wind City…
Qi Lun's expression turned ugly when he thought of the 3,000 soldiers in North Wind City.
"Got it. You may leave."
"Here!"
The messenger retreated.
"Men!"
"Lord Marquis." The leader of the bodyguards entered and bowed to the Marquis of Zhenbei.
"Order the Black Wind Guards to set off in two hours to Border Town to reinforce the Black Forest Guards. In addition, send people along the official road to urge the reinforcements. Order the Gale Guard General Lu Pojun to speed up the march and quickly rush to Youzhou to provide support!”
"Also, Red Plume has sent a message to the Military Council, the Ministry of War, and the Barbarian Wolf Tribe. The vanguard has arrived at Zhenbian City. The northern bridgehead, North Wind City, has fallen, and 3,000 soldiers have died for the country!”
"Yes, I will obey your orders!" The commander of the bodyguards nodded and turned around to leave the hall to deliver the military order.
In the main hall of the Governor's Office, Qi Lun, the Marquis of Northern Battlefront, paced back and forth. After a while, he looked at the bodyguards in the hall and said,""Ask the chief historian to come over."
"Here!"
The bodyguards retreated, and not long after, the chief historian arrived.
"Greetings, Great General."
"No need for formalities, Chief. You already know that the Barbarian Wolf Army has arrived at Border Town, right?”Qilun stretched out his hand and asked.
"I already know." Chief historian Luo Ying replied.
"Border Town is the gateway to our Youzhou Province. If Border Town is lost, the entire Youzhou Province will be destroyed. I am prepared to personally lead the Black Wind Guards there as reinforcements.”
"Great General!" Chief historian Luo Ying raised his head and exclaimed.
"Lord Luo, you don't have to say anything. This time, the Barbarian Wolf Army had changed their plans. They had broken through North Wind City and directly approached Border Town.”
"I'm worried, so I have to go and take charge.”
"Later, you will order the counties of Youzhou to defend the city.”
"Yes, I accept your orders."
Since the Northguard Marquis had already made his decision, Luo Ying could only obey as the chief historian of the Governor's Office.
"Alright, go and prepare. I'll take my men and head straight to the Black Wind Guards.”
"Send off the Great General!"
Leading hundreds of soldiers and 3,000 guards, the North Battlefront Marquis rode out of the city and headed toward the Black Wind Guard camp.
When they arrived at the camp, the Black Wind Guards were already prepared to break camp.
"Great General!" When the Black Wind Guard general saw the Great General arrive, he immediately came to welcome him.
"Are you ready?"
"Reporting to Great General, the army is ready and can set off at any time.”
"Alright, then let's set off. Set up more sentries along the way, and I will personally take charge of the central army.”
"Yes, I will obey your orders!"
Wuuu…As the flag of the Northern Battlefront Marquis moved to the center, the horn sounded. The army moved slowly, then suddenly accelerated and headed north.
The Black Wind Guards, who were all cavalrymen, could arrive from Youzhou City to Border Town in one day.
Lu Da, the general of the Dark Forest Guards, was able to remain calm in the face of the Barbarian Wolf Army because of the presence of the Dark Wind Guards in Youzhou.
