Chapter 350

"how can that be!"

He Chou couldn't believe his eyes, trembling slightly, his forced composure just now was completely broken.

As a top craftsman, he has strong confidence in the defense system he supervised. The stone wall defense line he spent a lot of manpower and material resources on is a bit hasty.

But at least the Huai army should be blocked for two or three days.

And the scene in front of him.

However, the Huai army only dispatched thousands of elites, and they rushed directly onto the stone wall. The Huai army was like a fierce tiger, while the defenders under his command were weak, like sheep being slaughtered.

"He Shangshu, give an order quickly, the enemy army has already boarded the stone wall, quickly mobilize the crossbow!"

A lieutenant beside him jumped anxiously.

The deputy general did not expect that He Chou and He Shangshu, who were entrusted with important tasks by King Wei, would fall into autism after being hit suddenly, unable to command troops and horses to defend in time.

In his opinion, there are nearly [-] soldiers on his side, and even if the Huai army goes ashore and confronts the two armies, there is a great chance of winning.

What's more, there are stone walls and trenches as lines of defense.

Under the repeated calls of the lieutenant general.

He Chou quickly returned to normal. He suppressed his emotions, listened to the opinions of the generals around him, and mobilized his troops to besiege the Huai army who had climbed the stone wall.

The sound of fighting rose into the sky.

After the Sui army returned to normal, the Huai army immediately felt a little pressure.

Seeing this, Yang Kan sneered suddenly, holding a long spear, striding like flying, looking for the generals of the Sui army, and harvested the opponent's life in a short time.

However, in a cup of tea, several huge cracks were torn out of the Sui army's defense system.

In the middle of fighting.

Yang Kan suddenly felt a threat, he subconsciously circulated his qi, and erected his long spear to block his side. The next moment, a whistling sound came from the void.

A slender and sharp arrow, engraved with subtle lines all over the body, with a little bit of indestructible sharpness, forcibly pierced through the aura attached to the long lance, and shot through the long lance made of fine steel.

However, this arrow lost its strength after it shot through the long lance, but the arrow cluster shot through, and the arrow body remained outside.

"How brave!"

When Yang Kan was attacked, he was furious.

If this arrow were shot at him, it would definitely be able to pierce through the protective energy and cause him a lot of damage.

Yang Kan has never encountered such a threat since he became Gang Qi.

His eyes were like lightning, he turned around and scanned, and immediately locked on to several armored enemy soldiers with bows and crossbows a hundred feet away.

With a roar, he leaped down the stone wall, ignoring the Sui soldiers standing in front of him, and the strong wind swept through, knocking a large number of enemy soldiers into the air, and rushed to the front of the crossbow in the blink of an eye.

boom!
The long lance swept across, and several elite Sui soldiers who attacked with crossbows burst into pieces, turning into a bloody mist.

"Even the God-breaking crossbow can't kill this person!"

Seeing this scene in the distance, He Chou panicked even more.

The God-breaking Crossbow is a sharp weapon he has worked hard to research. It is specially designed to break the generals' qi and use it for sneak attacks.

This is also the confidence for him to lead his troops south to sit in Shaobo Lake.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here to die because he didn't know how to use military power.

Speaking of which, he pierced through the general's qi with the method of equipment... This can be counted as part of the Mohist method.

In He Chou's panicked and regretful eyes.

Yang Kan seemed to be aware of it, his eyes swept away first, then sharply concentrated, locking on his position.

He Chou's eyes trembled.

The next moment, Yang Kan rushed down the stone wall with hundreds of elite soldiers, and directly charged in the direction where He Chou was...

Under the sweeping power of the sixth-rank generals, no trenches, crossbows, arrows, stones and bullets could stop Yang Kan's advance.

There were no more surprises.

After two sticks of incense.

Seeing Yang Kan's unstoppable impact, He Chou, who knew nothing could happen and was about to flee on horseback, was captured alive by Yang Kan.

Yang Shuang and the [-] troops recruited by Yangzhou City worked hard.

There is also a defense line built with more than 30 manpower, which has not been blocked even for an hour. The continuous defense line, piled up supplies, and 30 million men and women who are starving and detained ten miles away.

All fell into the hands of the Huai army.

"Brother Yang captured the enemy general alive and defeated an army of [-] in one hour, he is really a general!"

Fu Youde went ashore at this time, but he didn't go to the canal to block it immediately.

He repeatedly praised.

The Sui army was able to dominate Huaidong and overwhelm the other three princes. Its strength is still good, but the [-] Sui army in front of it is several times weaker than the Sui army navy in Gaoyou Lake.

Only half of them have good strength, and the other half have poor morale and strength.

No need to ask, the other half of the troops must be temporary recruits...

These recruits couldn't help but didn't play a role, but instead became a loophole in the defense line, which was caught by Yang Kan keenly and defeated in one fell swoop.

"He Chou, the scribes, can be defeated by other generals... This is just a trivial matter. If you can capture Yangzhou, this is a major event worthy of congratulations!"

Yang Kan's mouth was modest, but there was still a smile on his face.

No matter how strong or weak the opponent is, the record of defeating [-] enemy troops in one hour can greatly increase their reputation if it is spread out.

As the power of the Huai army continued to increase, its strength also continued to expand.

In the history of the original world, the record of defeating [-] troops, enough to send a general to the Wu Temple, is constantly weakening.

When will the Huai army have millions of people.

Defeating [-] enemy troops is a small victory in the eyes of many people, and it can no longer shock people.

"Yangzhou City... I heard that this city was also built by Governor He Chou. It took a year and tens of thousands of people to build it. It is extremely strong and difficult to capture. Brother Yang led the army to the south, be careful!"

Fu Youde reminded.

Yang Kan cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Thank you, I will act carefully. The king's military order is in my body, so I can't stay here any longer. I also ask General Fu to take care of the prisoners temporarily, and wait for the king to send someone to hand them over!"

Fu Youde said: "Don't worry, leave this place to me!"

Yang Kan had no worries and got on his horse immediately.

At this time, war horses and capable cavalrymen all dismounted from the boat, ready to march.

The next morning.

Yang Kan led [-] cavalry across the dense villages and towns, bypassed the small cities on the road, and approached Yangzhou City directly.

"Report..."

After entering the vicinity of Yangzhou City, Yang Kan's scout horses kept coming back to report the news.

"General, the gates of Yangzhou City have been closed and entry and exit are strictly prohibited. The forest outside the city has also been cut down. There are many guards on the top of the city, and the guards are tight. Our military spies cannot enter the city, and people from the Military Intelligence Department cannot contact..."

Baihu, the personal guard in charge of the spies, came to report quickly.

Yang Kan's face was calm, the situation of Shaobo Lake could not be hidden from Yangzhou, the Sui Army had known his movements for a long time.

It is normal to cut down the woods outside the city in advance, to avoid being made ladder equipment by the Huai army, and to clean up the people outside the city and strictly defend them.

Yang Kan said in a deep voice: "Send the order, speed up, and go straight to the outside of Yangzhou City!"

Although he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were in Yangzhou City.

However, the Sui army left 30 million troops in Gaoyou and Jieshou. Not long ago, Yang Guang took away another 30 troops...and the troops lost by the Sui army...

These troops alone are close to a million people.

In Yangzhou City, no matter how you count it, it is in an abnormally empty state.

The defenders that the spies saw before were probably just civilians temporarily recruited by officials in the city, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Iron cavalry roared.

After Yang Kan's order, the Huai army Jingqi specially transported to the south bank by boat rushed towards Yangzhou City like a red torrent.

Shortly after.

The roar of the iron hoof shook and came to the outside of Yangzhou City.

The entire Yangzhou City, the city gates were closed tightly, and the city was full of awe. Su Wei was wearing an official robe, and looked into the distance with a few generals.

In their eyes, the cavalry of the Huai Army seemed boundless.

Every cavalry soldier of the Huai army was exceptionally capable and powerful. Thirty thousand cavalrymen gathered together, full of murderous aura and surging into the sky.

"This... is this the elite cavalry of the Huai Army?"

Seeing the mighty elite cavalry outside the city, the generals on the top of the city looked ashamed.

Su Wei was also silent, not knowing what to say to boost morale...
