Chapter 193: Yong Jin Jinzhou Mansion, just don’t mess around, okay!
Two days later, Jiang Fan looked at the Zhoufu Army that had been almost trained. After thinking for a while, he led the army to march again. This time, they planned to march straight to the city of Jinzhou.
This time, the 50,000-man Zhoufu Army set out very happily, and no one even came to question Jiang Fan.
Li Yunzhuo and others did not even worry whether the 50,000 people on their side were going to die outside Jinzhou City.
It was the battle of Hulu Valley that established Jiang Fan's title of military god in the hearts of the Wuwanzhoufu Army. How many people in the whole of Dayan can have such a record of annihilating the Wolf Riders?
At that time, they clearly saw Jiang Fan beat the Wolf Riders so hard that they had no power to fight back!
Therefore, they thought that Jiang Fan must have a way to deal with the Jinzhou Beimeng cavalry. In order to show themselves, they of course rushed forward with shouts.
As the army marched, Jiang Fan asked them to bring along the sharp bamboo branches that had served them well in this battle. Almost every soldier in the 50,000-man army had one.
The whole army marching looked extremely weird and funny, everyone was carrying a sharp bamboo pole and looked full of fighting spirit. It was unbearable to watch.
When Ning Potian arrived, what he saw was the Zhoufu army stretching for miles, marching with bamboos on their shoulders.
Ning Potian was stunned when he saw it for the first time. He thought he was seeing things. Was this really the army going to recapture Jinzhou?
Why do you look like you're just going to Jinzhu to have fun? Each of you carries a section of bamboo. Are you serious?
Seeing such a team, Ning Potian almost vomited blood in anger. You said that such a team really wiped out the three thousand Northern Mongolian Wolf Riders? Could your military report be any more false?
However, just when he was about to find Jiang Fan and have a good talk with this guy to prevent him from losing his aunt's people.
He soon realized that something was wrong, because the entire army was moving in uniform formation; even the bamboos they were carrying looked out of place.
But they did not feel relaxed at all. They even saw solemnity and strong fighting spirit in the expressions of these people.
The mighty force that soared into the sky frightened him. Was this army before him really the 50,000-man army from the sixteen prefectures?
With surprise in mind, his 10,000 cavalrymen chased forward. When their cavalrymen were moving, Ning Potian vaguely felt that the Zhoufu army looked at them with extremely strange eyes.
How to describe it? It felt like he was looking at prey, especially when he looked at the war horses they were riding. His eyes were full of naked excitement. That wolf-like look almost broke his defense on the spot!
Just as he was chasing Jiang Fan, Jiang Fan also stopped. The front army continued to advance, and the rear army followed. Jiang Fan waited by the roadside.
When Ning Potian saw Jiang Fan, he was slightly stunned. The guy in front of him looked like he had not even grown all his hair. How could such a guy stir up the situation in the capital?
Can he destroy the Northern Mongolian Wolf Riders?! Doesn’t this sound so fake? He looked down on Jiang Fan at first sight.
But thinking of his aunt's instructions, he took a deep breath and walked over. But his face was obviously not good.
Although the appearance of the Zhoufu Army frightened him, it did not mean that he believed the battle record reported in the military newspaper. He would even believe that the young man in front of him would be very powerful!
He always felt that the son his aunt adopted was too capable of causing trouble!
If he hadn't chased after him, was this guy really so arrogant that he could capture Jinzhou City with the 50,000 people under his command?
But even if 10,000 cavalrymen came, it would be difficult to recapture Jinzhou City!
It is even possible that the cavalry in Jinzhou City might go out to fight and they might be defeated.
If they want to suppress the cavalry of Jinzhou City, they must have at least 30,000 cavalry. If they want to win, they must have at least 40,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of infantry!
"Your Highness the Eighth Prince, do you know what you are doing? You are sending them to their deaths..." Ning Potian said angrily as he arrived in front of Jiang Fan.
"Brother Ning Shi! Where do you get that from..." Jiang Fan looked at Ning Potian who was coming over and said with a smile.
The scouts have informed us of the identity of the visitor. Ning Potian, who was sent from Weizhou Pass, led 10,000 cavalry to provide assistance, and another 10,000 people will follow. They should arrive in one to two days.
He didn't know much about Ning Potian, but he had heard of him. He was both a fierce and wise general. In terms of strength and intelligence, he was about the same as the brothers of the Chu family.
In other words, the Seven Tigers of the Chu Family and the Five Dragons of the Ning Family are all rare military talents.
Of course, because he was the nephew of Concubine Ning, Jiang Fan had a good impression of him. After all, Concubine Ning was really kind to him, his mother, and his sister.
"How can I start? Do you know the difference between cavalry and infantry? Although 50,000 infantry are numerous, on the plains, the enemy only needs to charge with 10,000 cavalry to disrupt the 50,000-man army. If the army is disrupted, it will be a feast for the cavalry to slaughter!"
Ning Potian looked at Jiang Fan helplessly, and his tone softened a bit.
He may have realized that he was too serious and too rude just now!
"General Ning, you are wrong. Although we are infantry, we can deal with cavalry. We are professionals!"
"Have you heard the report about us annihilating 3,000 wolf riders? The total number of troops we dispatched was only over 2,400. Of course, including those sent to lure the enemy, there were over 5,000 of them."
"But we still wiped out the Wolf Cavalry without any casualties! With such a record, are we still afraid of the Northern Mongolian Cavalry?" Li Yunzhuo said at this time.
There was a hint of pride in his voice, as if this achievement belonged to their provincial army.
His words almost killed Ning Potian. He was just doubting the truth of this matter, but this guy actually boasted about it. Did he really think he was a fool?
"You are kidding! Just a few thousand people wiped out the Wolf Cavalry with zero casualties... Do you think I will believe it?" Ning Potian looked at Li Yunzhuo coldly.
However, as soon as he said this, Li Yunzhuo looked at him playfully and waved behind him.
In the blink of an eye, a bunch of wolf-head hats were brought in, as well as a bunch of wolf-rider scimitars. Someone even brought in a dozen wolf-rider horses.
Seeing these things, Ning Potian was stunned. He opened his mouth to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.
He questioned, but people directly provided evidence, why did he still question? !
They say the battle report is fake, but the thousands of wolf-head hats and scimitars in front of me can't be fake!
Although he still had doubts in his heart, he would not say any more nonsense. It didn't matter whether it was true or not. What was important now was that he could not march into Jinzhou again.
Even if he added 10,000 cavalrymen, if they arrived at Jinzhou City now, they would be wiped out by Jinzhou's Northern Mongolian cavalry! They were doomed to be defeated!
"Even if your battle record is true, I still think that you cannot go to Jinzhou. You must return to the army now. When reinforcements arrive, we will march to Jinzhou together!"
He spoke to Li Yunzhuo, and then he looked at Jiang Fan, hoping that Jiang Fan would follow his advice.
