Chapter 285 Raid the Camp

Youzhou is not a rich territory. On the contrary, the intersection of the Central Plains agricultural civilization and the civilization outside the border makes it look wild. However, since the imperial court migrated the population and cultivated the land, Youzhou has become much more prosperous than before.

Since the imperial court consciously migrated to all ethnic groups outside the border under the pressure of the Turks, the counties in Youzhou have become lively. The people of Youzhou know the right and wrong, so they send their heroes with the highest etiquette.

Under the leadership of the governor, Eddie Fulian, the elders and gentry lined up to meet for five miles, and the victorious drum beat the sky, and the sound of singing moved the ground. In the ocean of happiness, a whole jar of fine wine floated out, and the golden roasted lamb with honey flowing...

The heroes in the eyes of the people are not the heroes and famous generals who have the legend of following the dragon, but the heroes who are about to go to war in front of them. What are the heroes who are about to go to war? What are the masters of the emperor? What are the masters of the stones? What are the stones of Yanran? This is too far away from the common people. Everyone lives here for generations, and this is everyone's home. Every man in Yan will consciously defend it!

Youzhou is the home of a big guy. If there is no home, what are the people who are naked? Property, children, wives, husbands, parents and dignity will turn into a handful of dust under the hoof of the Turks!

Amid the sound of drums that shook the sky, the governor, Di Fulian, was the first to raise the wine cup, put his hands on his head, and greeted him in front of Gaoyan Zong's horse. He shouted loudly: "I hope the king will lead my heroes in Youzhou to defeat the Turks! This is the wine, which was congratulated by the elders of Youzhou for the king. I hope he will not dislike it and drink it with urgency!"

"May the king not bother to be too thin, so he can drink it!" More than 20 white-bearded old men in coarse linen said in unison, trembling with their hands, holding the wine cup over their heads. Behind the governor, the strong men of Qi and Lu, naked, beat the cowhide drums hard, and the rumbling drums rang out into the sky.

After taking the wine cup, Gao Yanzong's face, which had not changed color in front of tens of thousands of enemy troops, gradually turned red. His face blushed more times in the past few days than before. "Can I become thinner? It shouldn't..." Gao Yanzong himself also missed it.

The horse followed the fat riders behind him and saw the governor's hand trembling slightly. Gao Yanzong drank the first cup of Di Fulian's toast. He opened his mouth and wanted to say a few polite words, but in the end he didn't say anything. He walked to an old man, raised the wine cup, turned around, first expressed his respect to the brothers behind him, and then drank it all in one go.

"...If there is no king, Youzhou doesn't know what to do. Let the wolf cavalry rush straight to the city of Youzhou. Not only will the people be gone, but the dignity of the Khan and the court will also be swept away. This wine is the wish of the elders of Youzhou. I hope the king will not be careless and drink it again!"

An old man eagerly held up the wine cup, raised his hands high above his head, and his face was full of sincerity.

According to the customs of border states, the elders became more accustomed to calling the emperor Khan.

"If there is no strong support from Governor Di, if there is no concerted cooperation, if there is no support from the elders and fellow villagers, no matter how capable Gao is, he will not be able to gather these three thousand soldiers. The elders trust their children with their lives. How dare Gao not work hard!"

Gao Yanzong took the wine, immediately bowed, raised the wine cup over his eyebrows, and then slapped it all over and turned over the horse. The imperially-given large green horse in Liaodong was violent and turned around in circles. The horse's hooves as big as a bowl stepped on the ground, raising gusts of dust and smoke.

The strong men with naked upper bodies beat the drums again, and the rumbling sound of the drums made people's hearts excited.

In the sound of the drum, Jade Di Fulian led the civil and military officials of Youzhou and a group of old gentry, and raised the wine bowl at the same time and drank it all. Then he turned the mouth of the bowl over and let the remaining wine drag the trails into the soil in the sunlight, drop by drop...

Gao Yanzong rode two rounds and inspected the Youzhou soldiers behind him who were about to go to the expedition. Only 300 of these people were the elite "Iron Harriers" of the imperial guards, and the rest were voluntarily joined by county soldiers and ordinary people with weapons. Many of them did not even have a complete set of armor. There was no complete equipment or regular training. Only the bravery and perseverance of the border people in Youzhou supported them to make the decision to follow the army to go to the expedition. The only thing that made Gao Yanzong happy was that there were quite a few riders.

"...My men!" In the sunshine, Gao Yanzong, riding a horse and wearing heavy armor, was like a majestic demon god. Hundreds of cavalry like iron towers followed him, with light and firm steps, which made many soldiers with uneasy calm down. Everyone looked back with a firm look, with a bright red dizzy on their faces. The men in Yan were not afraid of life and death, and they would never die!

Gao Yanzong opened his mouth, but found that he was too poor again. If he was as eloquent as His Majesty, he would definitely be able to fool the group of people into their heads and break their heads and rush forward. He had already written the draft of the abdomen, but at this moment, he couldn't speak again.

He tried hard to calm down and said:

"...This is my third time to lead an independent army. Strictly speaking, I really lack sufficient training than other generals. This time, the Turkic army is approaching, and I don't know how much I can grasp it. I don't know if I can bring you back safely. I can't guarantee more, I can only guarantee a little bit, charge in front of you!"

"...You may not trust me very much, thinking that I have obtained the power of governor just because I am a royal family member... This is what I should do, and I will not accept it if I am! I am just a surname Gao, what's so proud of me? What do you think in your heart? To be honest, I don't care at all! You can guess in your heart, you can scold me and despise me, but--" Gao Yanzong's tone suddenly became sharp, "If you dare to disobey my military order, I will definitely kill you! Do you understand?"

"..." No one spoke.

"Do you understand!" Gao Yanzong's voice was like thunder, trembling with his eardrums.

“…Abide by the general order!!”

There was no drum sound or song. Everyone shut their mouths and looked at Gao Yanzong quietly. Gao Yanzong glanced at them silently and left. The army shot into a long dragon and followed him. At some point, the singing sounded after the army. In the song, some people remembered the robes of death in battle, and their eyes were filled with tears, while more people were burned by the strong fragrance of wine.

Gao Yanzong in front of the queue glanced back and saw that the army was full of morale and had more chances of winning in his heart. He smiled and said, "It's still like he looks."

Several lieutenants behind him said worriedly: "Governor, these people have weak combat power. Will they rely on them to save Yuyang..."

Gao Yanzong raised the whip without any concern and said, "Don't worry, even if the mob can fight, they will be wolves after the wolf, and they will be sheep after the sheep. Besides, look at us now... Isn't this a morale available to the army?"

"Asina photographed tens of thousands of wolf cavalry surrounding Yuyang, but lacked the experience of siege and could not capture it for a long time. Gao Baoning and Gao Yong should react now.

"They will give whatever I want. If I fight a few more games, the mob can become an elite force.

"What are you afraid of? Have you ever been afraid of on the battlefield of Iron Harrier?"

Gao Yanzong looked at them mockingly, and several lieutenants blushed and said with their necks: "Governor, don't look down on us. We can also kill several rounds of troops in the army! How can Turkic barbarians be in our eyes?"

"That's good."

Changping fell, and tens of thousands of Turkic wolf cavalry rushed south. To the north of Chaobai River, the shadow of Turkic plundering could be seen everywhere, causing considerable losses to the northern border of Qi, which had finally increased its vitality. Gao Yanzong was naturally angry, but he did not dare to take action rashly. He left Youzhou to go south east, crossed two rivers, and circled several bends, and then led hundreds of elite troops to the side of the Yuyang Turkic Camp.

The neighing sound of war horses came from time to time, campfires flashed, and soldiers holding spears shuttled back and forth. Gao Yanzong lay on a huge rock and stared at the Turkic camp below. Yesterday, he led his troops to patrol as usual, but he unexpectedly encountered the Turkic camp, but this was expected, and it was even a matter of time.

The desire of the greedy wolf is like a ravine, which is never enough to fill. The Turks tore open a hole and are stepping up the scale of going south. After observing for a few days, Gao Yanzong saw a cart of wealth, food and grass transported to the Turkic camp with his own eyes. Looking at the scattered and barbaric Turks below, Gao Yanzong suddenly had a bold idea in his heart. This idea gave him a sense of pleasure of revenge.

Only a head-on blow can make a wolf know that invading other people's territory is a mistake, and constant bribery is nothing more than pouring a basin of cold water into the boiling hot soup, and there is nothing else to do except to let go of the wolves' appetite.

"They have a lot of people." The whistle chases who were ordered to go to the camp came back quietly. At this moment, they were disheveled and dressed in a ragged leather jacket.

"Hmph, this time I'm afraid it's not an ordinary robbery, but a deep into the southern border."

"Into the depth? Fanyang?"

After taking Youzhou, the wolf cavalry went straight down, and then he could defend it wirelessly, and it was basically flat.

The main force is sufficient and there is no one to restrain them. They can fight all the way to the Huai River!

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. No matter which one, I can't sit idly by and watch them gather in my Yuyang."

Gao Yanzong stretched forward and stretched his neck, as if counting the tents like mushrooms blooming in the grass.

"There are at least ten thousand cavalry!" said the whistle cavalry.

"...There should be so many, this flag will never be lightly ridden."

Gao Yanzong pointed to the black wolf flag in the distance, and his wolf head flashed under the campfire, like a demon. "Ten thousand..." Gao Yanzong glanced at the camp below. Except for the horses, there was no sound in the camp. The moonlight poured down, and occasionally there was a cold light from the armor. His eyes turned twice and said, "Or we can raid."

"We?" The captain was shocked and couldn't help but look back, "We are only a few hundred!"

Gao Yanzong also looked back, behind him were a thousand soldiers wearing armor and holding sharp edges. The moonlight was bleak, illuminating everyone's face.

"Hundreds of people are enough. As long as you are surprised, you may succeed in one blow."

Gao Yanzong looked down at the mountain again, and when the war horse stepped by and the blade swept over, it would become a sea of ​​fire.

"It's so risky, we can go back to the city first." said the captain, "and then gather more troops, and there may be hope."

"The opportunity will not wait for us. What camp will be attacked by the three thousand troops? Then hundreds of people will be dispatched at any time!" Gao Yanzong responded impatiently. His very tall and strong body stood up, and his momentum became even more powerful. "... Now the Turks are still in their dreams, and the night will protect us. We will kill them all in our sleep! The night is dark and windy, and we suddenly attacked. They don't know how many of us have, and their positions will be chaotic. This is our opportunity!"

The excited light flashed in the soldiers' eyes. Gao Yanzong drew out his long sword, and the narrow blade flashed with a cold light: "Calm with me." In the mountain wind coming from the north, the sound of drawing the sword sounded. Gao Yanzong did not see anyone timid, but only saw firmness.

The bright moon is like a knife, and the blade is hidden in the wind, and a cloud covers the moonlight. It is now! Gao Yanzong ran towards the bottom of the mountain, with hundreds of soldiers following behind. The wind blew across his ears, like the sound of night. The campfire at the foot of the mountain began to be a point, and then gradually became bigger!
