, very normal..."

Deng Yu nodded.

"I heard that the news that Xie Chaozhong was going to lead the army reached Xuzhou, and Duke Pengcheng called him a troublemaker. This seems to be true!" Deng Yu's aide Xing Changhe said in a suppressed voice.

If Xie Chaozhong does not come to Huizhou, Tian Chang will have more than 20,000 troops in western Zhejiang. The Hanghu Army and the Huinan Army will attack Tonglu and Huangtian respectively, so the pressure will not be too great.

Xie Chaozhong seemingly led 40,000 imperial troops to strengthen Huinan's use of troops in western Zhejiang, but he also asked the She family to transfer 10,000 elite troops from western Zhejiang to supplement western Zhejiang. One side added 40,000 troops, and the other side added 10,000 troops.

It seems that Huizhou is still capable, but for Deng Yu and his generals, they would rather not have the 40,000 imperial army than the 10,000 elite troops of the She family.

It's a pity that the carnivores above the temple are very precise in addition and subtraction of one, two, three and four, and they don't seem to be confused in general. How can they know the real situation below and the real thoughts of ordinary generals?

It's good to have military exploits to compete for, but if you risk your life and your military exploits are taken away by Xie Chaozhong, no one would be willing to do so.

Xie Chaozhong led the imperial army to fill Huizhou, which was simply a burden. Now Xie Chaozhong forced the Huinan army to fight against the elites of the She family. How could the generals under Deng Yu not hate him? How could he not be resentful?

"What's the use of talking about this all day long!" Deng Yu shouted in a low voice, preventing his generals from complaining. Since the facts cannot be changed, complaining can only weaken his own will. He pointed at the enemy rampaging in front of the slope.

The general asked Ji Lie, "Our Huinan Army has no brave generals who can match him?"

The Huinan Army is not without brave generals, but there are really not many brave generals of this level. Deng Yu personally came to supervise the battle, and the outpost positions were trampled by the enemy.

Can't get through either.

"I'll do it!" Ji Lie responded to Deng Yu with a low growl, and shouted to the people around him, "Bring me my sword!" Ji Lie was not tall, and wearing a black iron helmet, he was half a head lower than Deng Yu, but he had a sword for killing horses.

With his hands, the blood all over his body was boiling, and with a loud shout, which also revealed a murderous aura, he called on the generals on the left and right to follow the flesh and blood, and with the brave soldiers of the bodyguard, they rode their horses and rushed towards the battlefield in front.

The Huinan Army is also an elite force that has been fighting for a long time. The general Youyou is shouting to go into battle, and the armored soldiers are also full of blood. They gather on the two wings and crowd the enemy cavalry, forcing dozens of enemy cavalry to rush eastward and westward and press them down violently.

.

"Who is coming?" Ji Lie was carrying his war horse, holding the hilt of the knife under his arm, pointing the blade at an angle, watching the silver-armored enemy face to face, but still not asking his name.

"Go to the Hall of Hell and ask about it!" Zheng Mingjing, as the personal guard of Shewenzhuang, rarely has the opportunity to lead troops on expeditions, so his reputation is not obvious, and not many people recognize his appearance, but the name "Zheng Mingjing" needs to be spread.

, no matter how stupid Deng Yu was, he could still think of the possibility of Shewenzhuang personally taking charge, and even went into battle and changed his armor with others.

Zheng Mingjing used the big horse to rush forward, causing the horse to stab at Ji Lie. When the two horses were about to catch up, he almost missed it. Ji Lie slashed his sword diagonally at the head of the horse's spear, narrowly splitting the head of the spear.

I only felt numbness in my arms and severe pain in the tiger's mouth. I thought to myself: This girl is so strong.

When the two armies engaged in battle, there was very little chance for the commander to fight. He missed a blow and a large number of soldiers and horses fought together, pushing Ji Lie and Zheng Mingjing away. The infantry and cavalry fought together, the shouts were loud, and each other became more and more invested.

A lot of troops.

Hundreds of infantry and cavalry from the Zhejiang and Fujian armies all participated, and the Huinan army also threw in two echelons, fighting together.

Zheng Mingjin broke off two long spears and felt exhausted. He walked back on horseback and signaled for the retreat of the troops on the wall of the village. He also led his cavalry to bring back the troops who were trapped in the siege. They all hid at the base of the wall.

The arrows were as dense as rain, forcing the pursuers back.

The enemy generals surrounded the city and did not rush to press forward. They then ordered their troops to form a shield array to protect the crossbowmen and press forward. They drove up the baggage behind them and moved forward the shield carriages and side carriages imitating those made by Huaidong.

…

After urging him to ride back, Deng Yu didn't even look at his clothes and armor soaked with blood. He only said: "Organize more manpower to dig trenches and fortifications. Don't be in a hurry to attack the stronghold tomorrow!"

"The messenger will most likely come to urge you." Urged Lie said.

"It's his business to be anxious. Let's fight at our own pace and not mess up a step!" Deng Yu said.

Don't look at the 60,000 soldiers and horses in Huizhou, but the terrain in western Zhejiang is complicated and there is not much open terrain. The 20,000 elite troops of the Huinan Army went south to fight the enemy. Even if the imperial army has some combat power, it is more likely that it will not be able to help.

Even though they were busy, they couldn't exert their strength - the She family still had the ability to gather 20,000 elite troops in the lower valley of Daqing River to attack them, so Deng Yu had to think about his 20,000 men.

Deng Yu did not want to fall out with Xie Chaozhong, so he chose to go to war. However, between the destruction of the 20,000 elite soldiers he had saved over the years and the complete offending of Xie Chaozhong, Deng Yu would of course choose the latter without hesitation.

Decisive, even after waiting for the afternoon, Deng Yu did not see Deng Yu going all out to attack Huangtian Village. Xie Chaozhong could not sit still and sent someone to question him.

Deng Yu only said that he wanted Xie Chaozhong to send someone who knew military affairs to supervise the battle. If he saw any slack on his side, he would not be resentful under the military law - Xie Chaozhong sent Yu Pijiang, an accompanying military counselor, to supervise the battle that night.

Although Yu Pijiang did not have a good reputation, he had served as the prefect of Haozhou for a year and a half. Deng Yu also knew that Xie Chaozhong could lead troops on an expedition. Besides the emperor, the biggest supporter behind him was Yu Pijiang's father, the censor of Zuodu.

Yu Xinyuan.

Deng Yu was still aware of Yu Bijiang's fear of death. When he came over, he only mentioned many possible consequences of recklessly attacking the stronghold. Yu Bijiang no longer rushed to urge Deng Yu to attack the stronghold by force, and only said: "
Chapter completed!
