empire grow

Chapter 72 Pre-capture another city

When Huang Yun arranged the Yunjiang Ferry, the Mangniu Kingdom in the distance was in turmoil.

It can be said that the most restless person in the entire vassal state is Zhou Mangniu, the emperor of the vassal state.

I thought that this time the general will fight in all directions. Firstly, the opposition forces can be wiped out and a peaceful vassal state can be established. Only in this way can we ensure no worries, and then the Mangniu vassal state can go out to fight and compete with other first-level vassal states. .

Unexpectedly, just after General Liu Mei set out to conquer the Northern Territory, the opposition forces in the other three regions rebelled collectively.If these opposition forces were just a single rebellion, then I didn't have to care about it at all, but this time they joined forces to rebel, so I was caught off guard.

In a few days, the generals defending the city in the southeast, west and west regions sent out emergency documents again and again, hoping that they could send troops to support them.

But what support do you get?
The army is out, and they don't know when they can return.

Most of the guards in the imperial city have been sent out, but they can barely defend the east. As for the two regions in the southwest, they cannot support them at all.

For a moment, Zhou Mangniu felt that his head was getting bigger, as if someone might explode.

However, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and these bad things always broke out together.

Just now Zhou Mangniu got an army report. According to the above description, Dingshan City, which he had just spent a huge amount of money to build, was actually breached by a group of horse thieves.

Now Dingshan Castle has become a temporary resting place for horse thieves. All the facilities and jewelry in the city have probably been looted.

Now that I think about the cost of building Dingshan Castle and the jewelry inside, Zhou Mangniu's head hurts.

"Your Majesty, we should come up with a strategy as soon as possible to eliminate those horse thieves, otherwise they will continue to roam around in our territory, which is definitely not a good thing for our country." A scholar-like official stood up anxiously the way.

"Bastard, I still need you to tell me how to do things here?"

Zhou Mangniu threw out the seal in his hand and shouted angrily.

"I dare not."

The civil servant was so frightened that he sat on the ground and begged for mercy in a panic.

"Hmph, I'm sorry you don't dare." Zhou Mangniu stood up and walked in front of the dragon chair. After a long time, Zhou Mangniu looked at the other person in the hall and said, "How many soldiers can be dispatched in the imperial city now?"

"Report to Your Majesty, now the entire imperial city can mobilize up to a hundred infantry, no more can be mobilized."

Hearing this number, Zhou Mangniu's heart gradually settled down.

"A group of small horse thieves, how many people can there be?" Zhou Mang said arrogantly: "At the beginning, the emperor only had 300 people, so he can still compete with the powerful Huanghuang vassal state."

"It's just a small horse thief now, what is there to be afraid of?"

"..."

"You two go down immediately, explain the political affairs to me, and then set up soldiers and horses for me, and go straight to Dingshan City." Zhou Mangniu sat down on the dragon chair and said: "This emperor must take back Dingshan City, take back Those jewellery."

………………

Dingshan City, which is far away from the mountains, is quiet in the city at this time.

At the beginning, Li Mo appeared in Dingshan City as a horse thief. With lightning speed, he caught the defenders of Dingshan City by surprise and occupied Dingshan City.

In this way, food and grass were replenished and soldiers were rested.The most precious thing is Li Mo, who has obtained a lot of information, especially information about the Northern Territory.

Although Li Mo didn't let his soldiers disturb the people, the residents of Dingshan City who had just moved here were still very scared.The horse thief is a character who comes and goes like the wind and kills people like cutting grass.If one is not good, it is very likely that the head will fall to the ground.Therefore, the people of Dingshan City did not dare to leave their doors from day to night.

Although it was quiet for a while, Li Modao also felt that there was no problem with this.

At this time in Dingshan City, the temporary imperial residence, Li Mo sat on a chair, looked at the several subordinates in front of him and said, "How is it? How is the investigation of the surrounding situation going?"

"Report to the Chief Supervisor. According to the investigation of the subordinates, the surrounding situation is indeed as shown in the report. There are not many garrisons in each city."

A soldier captain from Yanhuang Kingdom stood up and said respectfully.

If there were people who didn't accept Li Mo at first, then since Li Mo led them to capture Dingshan City, they have completely worshiped Li Mo.

"Haha, God helped me." Li Mo originally brought the cavalry here with the determination to die, but he didn't expect that there would be civil strife in the country, so his cavalry would no longer be the main force to harass the enemy's rear power, but the power to take advantage of the opportunity to fish.

At this time, Li Mo already had an immature plan in his heart, that is to use his advantage of being all cavalry to attack cities and loot everywhere, capture a city, and after destroying or taking away what he needs, immediately Just run away.

Li Mo is still very familiar with his subordinates, so Li Mo believes that there is no army in the Mangniu Kingdom that can stop the iron cavalry he leads.

"How about Lei Huangcheng?"

Hearing Li Mo's question, another captain stood up and said, "According to my subordinates' observations, there are probably more than 60 soldiers in Leihuang City. However, the guards in the city seem to be very careful, so Leihuang City often closes the city gates. , very rarely open."

"When will the city gates be opened?" Now that the cavalry led by Li Mo has captured Dingshan City, the next step is Leihuang City. line of sight.At the same time, create an opportunity for the other forces to attack.Obviously Li Mo didn't know the importance of Dingshan City to Zhou Mangniu.

"Based on the observations of my subordinates, one is when information is sent in, the other is when supplies are escorted, and the third is when there are small groups of people who go to visit relatives."

Hearing this, Li Mo felt a little tricky.

According to what his subordinates said, then he had no excuse to sneak into Leihuang City, let alone destroy it in the city.

However, at this moment, a person who was quietly sitting in the last seat came over calmly and said, "Chairman, if the lord believes in the villain, the villain will definitely be able to lead people into Leihuang City."

This man was tall and burly, with water chestnuts and bumps on his face, and he was dressed in civilian clothes.

Seeing him standing up, Li Mo's eyes lit up immediately, and then he said: "Haha, how could I have forgotten you, the hero of Leihuangcheng."

"Liao Zan, chief executive." The burly man touched his head and said with an embarrassed expression.

"That's right, you will definitely be able to capture Lei Huang City." Li Mo nodded, and then ordered: "You go down immediately and prepare to attack Lei Huang City tomorrow."

"Yes."
