Chapter 815 I want to try
When Wang Qian received Lin Feng's order and heard that the Tartars had sent 30,000 elite cavalry, he knew that the matter was serious.
He had fought the Tartars for several years and knew the destructive power of these guys.
We finally drove them out of the western border of the town, and now they are here again.
Wang Qian did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately gave orders to mobilize the army and begin to concentrate from Dazong Zhongyuan to Zhenxi.
Li Dong was transferred to Shanglin Prefecture to take charge, while Zhang Changyou still held on to Tianzhi Prefecture.
He took Lin Qiaomei with him, gathered 30,000 troops, and rushed from Shanglin Prefecture to Dingyuan Prefecture.
At the same time, he ordered Qin Fang, the commander of the border town, to strengthen border patrols to prevent the Tatars from launching sneak attacks.
Wang Qianshi was very confident. Facing 30,000 Tartar cavalry, he mobilized 50,000 Zhenxi troops in one go and sent them from various prefectures to Zhenxi Prefecture.
Within five days, they had assembled outside Lingdouzi Castle.
Then the 50,000 troops were divided into five teams and divided into different directions, and began to encircle the enemy along the border between Zhenxi and Tiezhen.
Wang Qian's strategy was that he only needed a 10,000-man army. When he encountered the 30,000-man army of the Tartars, he did not require victory, but only required to tie up the enemy.
Then, upon receiving the news, the various 10,000-man teams immediately launched a siege, determined to minimize the losses caused by the Tatar invasion of Zhenxi.
The entire Zhenxi was in a state of tension, and the prefecture and county garrisons were on level one combat readiness to prevent the Tartars from invading.
Everyone knew that the Tartar cavalry came and went quickly, and once a city was breached, given the Tartars' brutal nature, the entire city would be destroyed and people would die.
Zhenxi is a large area and the Tatar cavalry moves very quickly, so it is indeed difficult to defend against.
Wang Qian judged that the Tartars were not coming to attack cities and seize land, but to harass. Therefore, in addition to preparing for defense, the prefectures and counties that had the ability to fight outside the city could lead their troops out of the city. As long as they could hold off the Tartars and wait for reinforcements, it would be considered a great achievement.
Now, the entire Zhenxi was mobilized, waiting for the entry of 30,000 Tartars.
Outside Kalaqin City.
Lin Feng stared blankly at the huge city gate, which was blocked by huge stones overnight.
This was a method devised to prevent the Zhenxi Army's artillery from bombarding the city gate.
Pei Qiyin frowned and said, "General, I guess they will take some measures inside the city gate."
Lin Feng nodded, they would definitely do that.
"Is it the defeated troops from Tumertel City who ran here?"
Cheng Liang also pondered and said.
Faced with a city wall nearly ten feet high, Lin Feng was helpless for a moment.
Although there were not many defenders in the city, Lin Feng did not want his team to suffer heavy losses.
Because climbing walls to attack a city is a very dangerous job. If you fall from such a high wall, you will be crippled if not dead.
After walking around the entire city, I found that Master Tie had completely sealed himself in the city.
Even if we starve to death in there, we will not let the Zhenxi Army attack.
Lin Feng thought for a while and waved his hand.
"Let's go, bypass them and head straight to Bahrain."
Everyone was puzzled. If they didn't take Tumertel City, it would cause great trouble to their supply lines in the future.
Giving Master Tie a fixed point behind him also poses a great threat to the team.
Circumventing the city is a big taboo on the battlefield.
Lin Feng didn't waste any words. He waved his hand and gave the order for the entire army to break camp and head towards the Tiezhen Imperial Court, Balin City.
Only on the way did he explain to the generals around him.
At this time, Lin Feng was already sitting in a carriage with a map spread out in front of him.
The carriage was very spacious, and sat beside it were generals including Na Lan, Chu Jiao, and Shao Yihan.
Cheng Liang served as the driver on the shaft, and Pei Qiyin sat on the right side of the shaft.
Lin Feng pointed at the map and explained to everyone.
"Although Kalaqin is the last barrier of Bahrain, they have very few troops left in the city. Moreover, Shi Guku's goal is to make them delay time."
His finger moved. "You see, from Tumotel to Bahrain, you don't have to go through Kalaqin. These three big cities form an obtuse triangle. This is a straight line. Although the distance is far, it bypasses Kalaqin."
Lin Feng glanced at everyone.
"He Shiguku didn't attack Barukasi and Dadur, and took the risk of bypassing the city and entering the west of the town. However, he underestimated our remaining troops in the west of the town. Although 30,000 cavalry entering the west of the town will cause some damage, I believe Wang Qian will minimize such losses."
Having said this, he paused and waited for everyone's reaction.
Chu Jiao looked up at Lin Feng.
"General, do you want to use our Heavy Armor Battalion to capture the Iron True Imperial Court?"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Don't underestimate the combat power of 10,000 light cavalry."
Nalan puffed out his chest.
"We, the Kuro tribe's Iron Cavalry, are braver than him, the Iron Master."
Shao Yihan frowned: "General, with a total of 20,000 troops, can we capture Balin City?"
Lin Feng let out a breath and pondered for a moment.
"I want to try."
Chu Jiao became excited: "General, there is no need to try this, it will definitely succeed."
"I think it's possible."
"Yes, it will definitely work."
Pei Qiyin turned his head at the shaft of the carriage and said worriedly.
"General, isn't this too risky?"
Lin Feng laughed and said, "This is called burning your boats."
Everyone looked at him: "What do you have to say?"
Lin Feng explained: "It means leaving no way out and living towards death. It relies on a strong courage. If we can't take Bahrain, we can only..."
Nalan continued: "You can only die."
Lin Feng shook his head: "You said that, I didn't say that."
Chu Jiao slapped the car board and said, "I'm not afraid of death, so what else should I be afraid of?"
Lin Feng waved his hand: "Okay, everyone, get ready, speed up and march into Bahrain."
"Yes, General!"
Everyone dispersed, leaving only Lin Feng who was still thinking with his head down.
Pei Qiyin climbed from the shaft to the carriage and sighed.
"General, do we really need to fight Master Tie to the death?"
Lin Feng looked up and stared at the woman who still had her charm.
"Qiyin, I'm actually quite confident in my heart. In other words, I have confidence."
Pei Qiyin didn't understand and looked at him with confused eyes.
"My confidence comes from the heavy armored battalion, the ten accompanying artillery pieces, and the fifteen hundred shotguns."
Pei Qiyin nodded thoughtfully.
Lin Feng continued, "If even such advanced weapons can't take down a city, then all my efforts on these things are in vain."
"General, it's not that you won't attack Kalaqin City, it's that you just don't want to."
"Yes, Qiyin is smart. I just left all the ammunition to the Tiezhen Imperial Court in Bahrain City."
Pei Qiyin smiled and said, "I think the Tiezhen Imperial Court is going to be in trouble."
Lin Feng stretched out his finger and pointed at the city of Bahrain on the map.
"It's going to be bad luck."
The two smiled at each other.
Twenty thousand war cavalry, more than ten thousand engineers, and nearly a thousand horse-drawn carriages formed a long flowing line on the green grassland.
It is a little over nine hundred miles from Kalaqin City to the imperial city of Bahrain.
It would take the Zhenxi Army five to six days to reach the city of Bahrain.
On the second day of their march, reports of the battle were received in the royal city of Bahrain.
All the royal ministers suddenly panicked.
Especially Emperor Wanyan Wufeng, he was a diligent emperor and knew the situation of the defenders in the city.
Facing the 20,000 troops of the Zhenxi Army, this is going to be bad.
