Chapter 68 Recruiting Wolf Riders
Zhending City is in chaos.
The county magistrate was the head of a county, and the county magistrate was in charge of the county's military affairs. Two people died in battle, and tens of thousands of Han troops had no leader.
"Zhang Niujiao of the Black Mountain Army is coming, leave this city as soon as possible!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, players in Zhending City fled the city one after another.
Two or three county towns in Changshan Kingdom have been captured by the Heishan army, and everyone is in danger.
In the chaotic times at the end of the Han Dynasty, not only the Yellow Turban Army in Julu County, but also the Heishan Army, Baibo Army, Taishan Bandits, Western Qiang, Southern Barbarians, Shanyue, Wuhuan, Xianbei, and there were also bandits and water bandits in various places, which were in chaos...
A cavalry enters Zhending City!
"Meet the Cavalry Commander!"
The officials of Zhending County saw Xu Tian as if they had seen him.
Now Zhending County is Xu Tian’s highest official position and has the ability to turn the tide, so he is the only one.
Xu Tian was not polite: "Starting today, I will temporarily take charge of many affairs in Zhending County. Do you have any opinions?"
Since Cao's official in Zhending County chose himself, he had to pay a certain price - recognize Xu Tian's control over Zhending County.
Many officials said, "I wish to obey your orders!"
"Xiao He, resettle the Heishan Army, Zhang Liao, rectify the defeated troops in Zhending County, and go to the city wall to defend."
Xu Tian immediately began to make arrangements and restore the morale of Zhending County as soon as possible before the arrival of Zhang Niujiao of the Heishan Army.
The Han army in Zhending County was killed in battle because of the county magistrate and county magistrate, and their morale was less than half.
Xiao He brought 500,000 Black Mountain Army and placed these Black Mountain Army in Zhending City. Among these Black Mountain Army, many of them were the families of Zhang Niujiao Legion, which could affect the morale of Zhang Niujiao Legion...
There were only 30,000 Han troops left in Zhending County.
The Heishan Army Qu Commander was not weak, including Zhang Yan, Zhang Niujiao, Zhang Baiqi, Yu Du and other Heishan Army Qu Commander. There have been more or less records in history that he once fought with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
The magistrate of Zhending County, the county magistrate, was slightly inferior in ability and was killed by Zhang Niujiao in the melee.
According to the chief clerk of Zhending County, Zhang Niujiao's force is still above Zhang Baiqi, perhaps second only to Zhang Yan.
The 30,000 Han troops were mostly low-level troops, including 5,000 cavalry.
Among the 500,000 Black Mountain Army, 40,000 were surrendered soldiers.
Almost 70,000 troops.
Zhending City is a medium-sized city with a large number of stone arrow towers, medium-sized cow crossbows, and 70,000 troops. Xu Tian believes that he can defend Zhending County.
For any player or NPC, it is crucial to have their own territory and the heroes will be in power in the future.
Only with territory can you have resources, troops, and equipment.
The Heishan Army Qu Commander Zhang Niujiao commanded the army all over the mountains and marched towards Zhending City.
The Black Mountain Army, who escaped from the valley, found Zhang Niujiao and accused Zhang Niujiao of a Han army of surprise attacks on the valley and plundered all population and property.
Zhang Niujiao heard that the stronghold was attacked by the Han army, with gold, silver, weapons, and food in vain, and his face turned gloomy.
"Who is the chief general of the Han army?"
"That man used a big axe, and one axe killed hundreds of brothers!"
"It should be the cavalry captain of Zhao Zhen. He killed Zhang Baiqi. We didn't take the initiative to cause trouble for him, but he came to him on his own initiative!"
Zhang Niujiao's forehead bulged with blue veins, and Xu Tian completely angered him.
A cavalry of the Black Mountain Army hurriedly returned: "Chief, the group of dog officials in Zhending County, after you killed the county magistrate and county magistrate, they found the cavalry commander and entered Zhending City!"
"Capture Zhending and kill that dog captain!"
Zhang Niujiao immediately sent troops to attack Zhending City.
After all, Zhang Niujiao's wife and son were all taken away by Xu Tian. If you want to say you are not angry, unless Zhang Niujiao is a saint.
In Zhending City, Xu Tian came to the sixth-level cavalry battalion.
The level 6 cavalry battalion can already recruit Bingzhou wolf cavalry.
The plunder of Zhang Niujiao's treasure house gave Xu Tian enough gold and silver to acquire wild wolf in large quantities as the mount of the wolf cavalry.
The initial level of the wolf cavalry is level 50, and once it is out of the barracks, it is an elite.
There are a lot of players in Zhending County, and they actually pieced together 300 wild wolf mounts, all of which were taken down by Xu Tian at a high price.
Because of Xiao He's orange characteristic, it only takes 21 days to recruit the sixth-level Bingzhou wolf cavalry.
Xiao He can be called a god-level logistics, and the later it reaches the stage, the more obvious the effect.
The speed of recruiting troops will affect the efficiency of fighting for hegemony.
Xiao He entered the county government office, and all the officials followed Xiao He's orders, resettled the Heishan Army, allocated weapons, food and grass, and the county government office resumed operations.
"Brother, the Black Mountain troops are at the city!"
Pan Feng hurriedly reported.
Xu Tian asked Xiao He to select 300 suitable young and strong men, enter the level 6 cavalry battalion of Zhending County, and start training the Bingzhou wolf cavalry.
Then, Xu Tian took Zhang Liao, Pan Feng and Zhou Cang to the wall of Zhending City and looked down at the Black Mountain Army under the city.
The Heishan Army Qu Commander Zhang Niujiao and hundreds of thousands of Heishan troops besieged Zhending City. He would not give up until he took down Zhending City.
This time, Xu Tian had no friendly troops, so he could only defeat the Black Mountain Army with his own strength.
Pan Feng said carelessly: "Brother, why don't we just break out of the city and defeat them in one fell swoop."
"When the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is finished training, then go out of the city to fight back."
Xu Tian was not in a hurry.
The one who was really worried should be Zhang Niujiao. After all, Xu Tian snatched away the gold, silver and food that Zhang Niujiao had hoarded.
Zhang Liao is also full of expectations for his exclusive military service.
Zhou Cang had the Yellow Turban Strongman, and Zhang Liao's wolf cavalry was not inferior to the Yellow Turban Strongman.
If three hundred wolf cavalry come out, they can directly fight on the battlefield and kill the Black Mountain Army.
After Zhang Niujiao's troops arrived at the city, they began to build siege equipment.
Xiao He was quickly counting the supplies in Zhending County.
Xu Tian got the gold, silver and treasures stored by Zhang Niujiao at one time, and also obtained the soldiers, armor, food and grass from the Zhending County warehouse, and his strength increased sharply.
"Break through the city, no one will stay!"
The Black Mountain Army built a number of ladders and couldn't wait to attack the city.
Zhang Niujiao personally supervised the battle, and the black Black Mountain Army attacked Zhending City!
The Han army's bed crossbows were fired volleys, and the giant crossbow arrows fired by the cow crossbow penetrated more than a dozen Black Mountain soldiers, like iron plowing the land!
Xu Tian mastered the legion's characteristics "Long Tao" to enhance the combat power of the Han army. The Han army in Zhending County was blessed by an invisible force, as if its own strength had increased by three points.
Han army archers released their bow skills, and the rain of arrows intertwined into a meteor, falling into the Black Mountain Army, shooting through the Black Mountain Army's iron shield, and harvesting batches of Black Mountain soldiers.
"Long Tao is really strong..."
Xu Tian obtained Jiang Ziya's inferior character "Long Tao", which improved the combat effectiveness of the Han army to a medium extent and was full of energy.
The Han army in Zhending County changed the haze caused by the death of the county magistrate. With the strong city defense of Zhending City, it launched a large-scale killing and injuring the Black Mountain Army.
Zhang Niujiao hit a wall in Zhending City.
Compared with the county magistrate who died in battle, Xu Tian's ability has improved more than one level.
What's more, Xu Tian has not used the skills of the great master Zhang Jiao.
The Heishan Army that climbed the city wall was killed by Pan Feng and Zhou Cang.
The Black Mountain Army pushed the car and tried to force the city gate. Pan Feng directly threw it down with a huge rock of 10,000 kilograms to destroy the car.
After many battles, Pan Feng's condition gradually approached his peak.
