The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chapter 194 I will meet him

Jiang Fan smiled and said to Ning Potian, "Brother Ning Shi! I am the commander-in-chief this time. I have the final say on whether to march forward or not. If you are afraid, I can order you to stay behind and wait for the next order!"

Jiang Fan didn't want to argue with Ning Potian. He was not acting on impulse when he led his troops to attack Jinzhou.

Now is the best time to lure and kill the enemy, which can effectively consume the manpower of Jinzhou City and will be of great help in the subsequent capture of Jinzhou City.

If they wait until the reinforcements from the two passes arrive, I'm afraid the Northern Mongolian cavalry in the city will not leave the city.

By then, a stalemate would form. Even if we were to attack the city, the enemy would have enough manpower and would cause more losses.

Only 50,000 Zhoufu infantrymen can lure the enemy to attack! If 120,000 people were gathered together, Beimeng would definitely just defend to the death!

As for the cavalry charging, it is not a question of whether they can charge or not. Even if they did, would they really succeed?

"General Ning, don't worry. The cavalry will charge? They don't dare. Even if they dare, they will only come to die!" Li Yunzhuo smiled at Ning Potian and said proudly.

Ning Potian almost kicked Li Yunzhuo when he heard this. How could this guy be brainwashed by Jiang Fan? He didn't care about the safety of his 50,000 Zhoufu troops? ! He was so confident, he was serious!

They don't even dare to charge, and they come here to die. Are you kidding me?

Ning Potian wanted to speak, but Jiang Fan stopped him with his hand and said calmly, "By the way, Brother Ning Shi, please ask your cavalry to stay five miles behind our army and don't get close!"

If Ning Potian's cavalry followed, it would not be good for us, but having him there would not be any harm. We could call on them when necessary!

Ning Potian was almost mad to death when he heard this. He rushed here to support, but this guy not only didn't listen to his advice, but also refused to let him go with him.

With just 50,000 infantrymen, he wanted to fight against the cavalry of Northern Mongolia. Is he crazy?

"Brother Ning Shi, please obey military orders and don't make things difficult for me!" Jiang Fan smiled at Ning Potian.

The guy in front of him was a bit stubborn and looked down on him. Jiang Fan was too lazy to waste time talking to him. He had his own ideas on what to do. If he let this guy mess things up, it would be troublesome!

Ning Potian met Jiang Fan's faint smile and the solemnity in his eyes made him feel inexplicably cold in his heart.

He found himself actually shocked by Jiang Fan's invisible aura. For the first time, he had a new understanding of this prince who seemed to have barely grown all his hair.

Sighing, he said nothing, just nodded.

Jiang Fan smiled with satisfaction, turned around and prepared to lead the team forward. At the same time, he also sent people to the direction where the reinforcements from Hezhou Pass were coming.

Since we are trying to lure the enemy, we certainly can't let others do bad things. The people at Weizhou Pass have been blocked, but there is no guarantee that the people at Hezhou Pass won't come over, so we have to block them first.

However, after thinking about it, when Ning Potian was leaving, Jiang Fan said, "By the way, Brother Ning Shi, lend me 2,000 of your cavalry!"

Although they have ways to deal with the Northern Mongolian cavalry, if they can add another 2,000 cavalry, the results of the battle can be further expanded.

Hearing Jiang Fan's words, Ning Potian, who was about to leave, had to respond sullenly. Then, he ordered his cavalry to follow Zhoufu Army from a distance of five miles.

He took 2,000 cavalrymen and mixed into the Zhoufu army. Following Jiang Fan's orders, all the cavalrymen dismounted and walked.

Instead of letting them ride the horses, they had to pretend to be infantry. Ning Potian didn't understand what Jiang Fan was trying to do. However, when Jiang Fan asked them to change to the wolf riders' Arabian horses.

His face was full of shock, and for the first time he believed that Jiang Fan could really have destroyed three thousand wolf riders.

However, when he thought that Jiang Fan actually brought 50,000 infantrymen to Jinzhou City, his heart was pounding. If this guy suffered a loss then, he didn't know how he would end up.

But thinking that this guy was his aunt's newly recognized son, he could only think that if he was really defeated by the Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry, he would lead Jiang Fan to fight his way out! At least he had to save this guy's life.

So, just like that, 2,000 of the 10,000 cavalrymen who came to support from Weizhou mixed into the Zhoufu army, and the remaining 8,000 were arranged five miles behind the main army.

Looking at the Zhoufu army marching with bamboo sticks on their shoulders, Ning Potian's eyebrows jumped and his teeth ached! This is too much of a joke!

When the army arrived at Jinzhou City, Ning Potian was shocked to find that Jinzhou City had not made any move at all, not even sending cavalry out of the city to meet the attack!

This made him a little confused. Are the Northern Mongolian cavalry in Jinzhou Prefecture so cowardly?

If we send out 10,000 cavalrymen during such a good opportunity, these 50,000 infantrymen will probably be finished!

He thought of Li Yunzhuo's words. Wasn't that guy just bragging? Did the Northern Mongolian cavalry really not dare to charge? He was full of questions!

But that was the fact. The Northern Mongolian cavalry refused to come out to attack. They all retreated inside Jinzhou City and there was no movement at all.

When the army deployed its troops in Jinzhou City, the cavalry never left the city.

He didn't know that at this moment on the Jinzhou city wall, Dora Yue'er was looking at the Zhoufu soldiers carrying sharp bamboo branches, her eyes twitching, with fear and coldness in her eyes.

Dora Yue'er still remembers the battle not long ago vividly and will never forget it!

Three thousand wolf riders were defeated by the strange sharp bamboo formation. They died without even touching the enemy!

It wasn't that she didn't want to leave the city to attack Jiang Fan's Zhoufu Army. It was just that Jiang Fan's swaggering and seemingly disorganized march made her unsure and she didn't dare to send troops.

She was afraid that once she sent out troops, they would fall into Jiang Fan's trap and be defeated outside the city.

“Princess, why don’t you let me lead the troops to attack? Such a good opportunity has been missed... What a pity! Right now, they haven’t stabilized their position and haven’t even deployed their formation. This is definitely a good opportunity to advance!”

On the city wall, a Northern Mongolian cavalry general looked at Dora Yue'er with a puzzled look on his face, his eyes full of unwillingness.

"Do you think Princess doesn't want to? Do you know how we lost our three thousand wolf riders? Jiang Fan is full of tricks. He came here so recklessly. I'm afraid he was trying to confuse the enemy. If we really send troops, we will definitely fall into his trap!"

At this time, a wolf rider general spoke up.

He was one of the wolf riders who escaped back. Looking at the sharp bamboo branches below, a trace of fear and dread flashed in his eyes!

After they were defeated, the soldiers in the city only knew that they were defeated but did not know the details. There were even generals with hot tempers who wanted to send troops.

If it weren't for Dora Yue'er's pressure, they would probably have led their army to attack Jiang Fan!

"Princess, if you are afraid, you don't have to go. I am not afraid! Let me lead 5,000 cavalry to meet that guy!" The general who spoke first said with his neck stiff after hearing this.

Dora Yue'er didn't tell them why the Wolf Cavalry was defeated, and they didn't know.
