From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 335

On the tower of Yancheng, Zhao Yunhu looked at the countless torches below and couldn't help but feel a headache.

The combat power of the Fifth Army Camp was not strong. Although the ladders were useful, they never attacked.

If they kept fighting, the brothers would not be able to hold on sooner or later.

Soon, a farmer rushed up and shouted: "General, the brothers who came to support from Chenzhou and Yingcheng were ambushed by the Fifth Army Camp halfway."

"What did you say!"

Zhao Yunhu glared and said: "It's impossible! All 60,000 soldiers from the Fifth Army Camp are here!"

The farmer said: "They are wearing civilian clothes, just like us. They may be the regiment training soldiers recruited by Kaifeng City."

Zhao Yunhu said: "The number should not be large. Maybe they can stop the reinforcements for a while, but it won't cause any big trouble. They will arrive at dawn."

After speaking, he looked at Looking down, he said happily: "The Fifth Army Camp has retreated. Haha, it seems that the brothers have repelled the blocking regiment soldiers and are coming over."

"Zhou Yuan, this bastard, is scared!"

Another person laughed and said: "I thought they were so awesome, but in the end, they are not better than us. I guess they can't hold on."

Zhao Yunhu stretched and said with a smile: "Rest. When the sun rises and the reinforcements arrive, I want to see what Zhou Yuan, the bastard, will do!"

...

When the east was bright, Shi Yi and Wang Xiong finally returned to the Fifth Army Camp.

In the general's tent, two men half-knelt on the ground. Shi Yi shouted loudly: "General, we followed the general's orders and strictly arranged the tactics. The enemy was defeated."

"There were 2,000 people in my army, 120 people were killed and 472 people were injured."

"Due to time constraints, the number of enemy casualties was not counted, but it is almost certain that their survivors would not exceed 2,000."

Wang Xiong also laughed and said: "The peasant soldiers in Chenzhou were stupider. They killed each other for a longer time. In the end, it is estimated that several hundred people escaped."

"Seventy-eight people were killed and 356 were injured."

Zhou Yuanxin Huai was greatly relieved and nodded slowly, saying, "Well done! Let the injured brothers go down to rest and recuperate. This battle killed almost 40,000 enemies, which can be said to be a good start!"

Shi Yi smiled and said, "It was the commander who made all the plans, and we just executed them."

Zhou Yuan said, "The battlefield situation is complex and changeable. It is a great achievement to be able to perfectly execute the strategy."

"I will remember this credit for you. When the war is over, I will reward you together!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you bring back the head of the enemy leader?"

"Brought it back."

The two hurriedly sent the head in.

Zhou Yuan looked back at Li Yu'an and smiled softly, "Please, Virgin Sister."

Li Yu'an said calmly, "Give me half an hour."

"Okay! Thank you!"

Zhou Yuan immediately said, "Move to the east and west gates of Yancheng. We have to stop the peasant soldiers who are supporting Yancheng!"

"Shi Yi, go find Li He to get 10,000 elite soldiers."

"Wang Xiong, go find Liu Fang to get 10,000 elite soldiers."

"I don't need to repeat what to do, right?"

"Take the soldiers out, and then kill them!"

The two looked at each other and half-knelt to receive the order.

About half an hour later, it was already dawn.

Li Yu'an stretched in the carriage, handed two masks to Zhou Yuan, and said lightly: "Take it, I want to see how you fight!"

Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "It's very simple, Shi Yi and Wang Xiong have each brought more than 11,000 peasant soldiers to kill us!"

Li Yu'an walked out of the carriage and saw that there was already shouting and killing in front of him.

...

"What's going on!"

Zhao Yunhu woke up in a hurry, without even having time to put on his clothes, and shouted: "Where is the sound coming from!"

The guard said: "General, the reinforcements from Yingcheng and Chenzhou have arrived, but the roads to the east and west are blocked by Zhou Yuan's army."

"There is no way to get reinforcements, so we can only force our way in!"

Zhao Yunhu hurriedly said: "Let's go! Let's go to the west gate to see!"

He ran out with his clothes on, and when he reached the west tower, he saw that the battle was in full swing below.

One of them rode a donkey and rushed over with tens of thousands of peasant soldiers, while the soldiers of the five military camps were chasing him relentlessly.

Zhao Yunhu looked carefully and said immediately: "That's my brother Dongliang! Liu Dongliang from the next village! The third brother of Yingcheng! He led the troops here!"

At this moment, the reinforcements were approaching the tower, and the army of the Five Army Camp was still chasing.

Zhao Yunhu said: "Quick! Shoot arrows to cover my brother!"

Countless arrows rained down, and the army of the Five Army Camp was forced to retreat.

Zhao Yunhu said happily: "Open the city gate quickly and take my brother into the city!"

So, the heavy city gate slowly opened, and Liu Dongliang rode a donkey and rushed in with tens of thousands of support troops.

"Hahaha! Good brother! You finally come to support your brother!"

Zhao Yunhu went over, laughed out loud.

Liu Dongliang smiled and said, "Good brother, I'm here to save you, are you surprised?"

Zhao Yunhu suddenly stopped and glared, "You...what's your accent? How come you've grown so much taller?"

Liu Dongliang immediately tore off his human skin mask and turned into Shi Yi. He grinned and said, "Kill him!"

More than 10,000 reinforcements took off their headscarves at the same time, and chopped at the peasants with knives.

The sudden change made Zhao Yunhu terrified, and he couldn't help but yelled, "Fake! They are fake! They are from the Fifth Army Camp!"

"Kill them!"

He chopped at Shi Yi with a big knife, and Shi Yi was not afraid. He picked up two axes and rushed up.

The sudden change made these peasants react in no time, and they were killed at the first time.

The key is that the city gate is still not closed!

"Brothers! Charge into the city!"

Li He finally waited for this moment, and led 25,000 soldiers from the military camp to charge in at the fastest speed.

After entering the city, the combat effectiveness is incomparable.

A total of 45,000 soldiers from the military camp can crush 60,000 peasant soldiers without any problem.

What's more, the morale of the enemy army is almost dispersed.

On the carriage, Zhou Yuan looked at this scene and said slowly: "The battle of Yancheng is over. Zhang Bailong's total of 100,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out in one day."

"Liu Fang!"

"I'm here!"

Liu Fang's face flushed, and he was only excited. It turned out to be so simple to fight with the general.

Zhou Yuan said in a deep voice: "You lead the remaining 20,000 elite soldiers from the five military camps and set out to kill Chenzhou immediately. Take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness and attack the city tonight."

"I obey the order! Please rest assured, general!"

He rubbed his hands, and it was finally time for him to show himself.

Chenzhou had 40,000 defenders, and now 20,000 have been lost, leaving only 20,000.

A sudden surprise attack by 20,000 troops from the five military camps is likely to catch the enemy off guard.

It is very likely that Chenzhou will be taken!

Li Yu'an felt a chill in her heart. Zhou Yuan's strategy was too terrible. He surrounded the enemy and attacked the reinforcements, killing the enemy like pigs in the movement, and used a human skin mask to invite the enemy to open the door.

Now he is clearing the remaining soldiers in Yancheng, and sending 20,000 troops to attack Chenzhou.

A series of plans seem to be a whole, and the continuous ingenuity makes it difficult for the enemy to resist.

If the surprise attack on Chenzhou tonight can also be successful.

This means that Zhou Yuan will defeat the enemy's 120,000 troops and occupy two cities within two days.

What a terrible Zhou Yuan!

It is said that he is just talking about war on paper, and the previous battles were not considered hard battles. Then is this battle considered hard?

If this person can really go to Goryeo with me, I am afraid that he can restore the country in two or three years!

Thinking of this, Li Yu'an brought the tea to Zhou Yuan and said softly: "Drink some water, don't be thirsty."

Zhou Yuan was slightly stunned, subconsciously took the teacup, and glared: "What's wrong with you, Saint Mother?"

Li Yu'an smiled and said: "What's wrong? Pour you a cup of tea, what's strange about that?"

"You have been working so hard, even if your internal force protects your body, your body may not be able to hold on."

"Wait a minute, I will help you relax your muscles and blood circulation, and relax."

Zhou Yuan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help saying: "Is there such a good "What?" Sister Saint, to be honest, it has been more than 40 days since I left Shenjing, and the side effects of my Pure Yang Wuji Gong have reached their peak. "

"That part is also a little congested, can you help me!"

Li Yu'an narrowed her eyes slightly, stretched out her hand, and flicked Zhou Yuan's face with five fingers, smiling: "Do you think it is beautiful?"

Zhou Yuan nodded and said: "It is as tender as green onions, as delicate as snow, and I don't know how comfortable it is to be cold."

"Do you want it to take care of you?"

At this point, she also glanced down.

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but said excitedly: "Is there such a good thing? Sister Saint is really a living Bodhisattva on earth!"

Li Yu'an said: "Fight this battle and return to Goryeo with me."

Zhou Yuan's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Sister Saint, you misunderstood. How could a gentleman like me think of such a rebellious thing? You are my uncle!"
