The Hongniang did hold her breath in her heart. After a while with Yun Zhao's Bo Yang, she saw that Yun Zhao was worried about her army from Yun Zhao's worries. She even praised Cheng Qun and looked down on herself. This made her arrogant and arrogant, but she was unwilling to destroy the rare atmosphere after meeting again for a long time. She remained silent at the moment. After returning to the Ganzhou base camp, she immediately rushed her army to attack Xiangzhou. She wanted Yun Zhao to take a good look at how Cheng Qun, who he highly praised, was vulnerable to his army.

The official army? The Hongniang never took them seriously.

Huang Rui defeated the coalition forces of Baotaowei and Xiangzhou Town Army in the battle of Fukang County, occupied Fukang County, and made Hongniangzi's determination to attack Xiangzhou immediately was even more irreversible. The central army entered Fukang, Huang Rui's 10,000 troops entered Taikang County, and the three-eyed tiger's three-eyed tiger's three-eyed tiger's three-eyed tiger's three-legged cavalry and five-thousand auxiliary soldiers rushed straight to Shenwu County, while the central army led by Hongniangzi prepared their troops and went straight to Shuocheng from Fukang to Xiangzhou City. Three arrows were launched at once and headed straight to Xiangzhou City from three directions. If everything went well, the three troops would join Xiangzhou City to complete the three sides of the encirclement of Xiangzhou City.

Xiangzhou is connected to Jingzhou, but compared with Jingzhou, Xiangzhou is a mountainous place. However, in Shenwu County, which is adjacent to Jingzhou, the terrain is relatively flat. The more you look towards Xiangzhou City, there are many hills and ridges, and the terrain has a large ups and downs, but it will not constitute much obstacles to fighting against cavalry. Hongniang placed the three thousand cavalry and five thousand auxiliary soldiers under his command, the strongest Three-eyed Tiger, in Shenwu County, one was to conquer Shenwu County, and the other was to cut off the support from Jingzhou.

When Hongniangzi sneaked into the Central Plains from the desert, she accompanied about 200 old brothers from Yingzuiyan. It was precisely with the cornerstone of these two hundred people that Hongniangzi gradually created her cavalry unit across the northwest, and this cavalry unit is also Hongniangzi's biggest pillar.

After years of hard work and fighting in the north and north, in addition to countless scars on his body, the Three-eyed Tiger has shed its tumult and recklessness and has grown into an excellent general. With a look of his eyes, he was so powerful that this cavalry was polished by him and the old brother Eagle Beak. In his heart, this was another Eagle Beak Rock Horse Bandits unit. Relying on this cavalry, the Three-eyed Tiger was sure that no one could stop him in the heart of the Central Plains.

Conquer Shenwu and guard against possible reinforcements from Jingzhou. The three-eyed tiger knew the intention of Hong Niangzi to hand over this place to him.

"Brother Hu, it's still thirty miles away from Shenwu County." A cavalry general flew over, and from his name, he could tell that this was an old man from Eagle Beak Rock.

"Camp!" The three-eyed tiger swayed its saddle and dismounted, "How is Luo Yi. Shenwu's defense?"

Luo Yi jumped off his mount and sat in front of the three-eyed tiger: "Brother Hu, I personally led the whistle cavalry to inquire. The entire Shenwu is now in chaos, and a large number of people are rushing into Shenwu County. Shenwu County has been closed, and it is said that they are worried that our spies will be included among these people."

The three-eyed tiger laughed, "The white lotus is rooted in the lower class and has a very deep foundation among the lowest class people. Although we have entered Xiangzhou for a short time, it has developed rapidly. It seems that the magistrate of Shenwu County also knows our power, Luo Yi, and how many garrisons are there in Shenwu County?"

"We had previously sent a message from the spies who entered the county town. There were two thousand Xiangzhou town troops and one thousand Baotao Guards in the city. The Xiangzhou town troops could be ignored, but the thousand Baotao Guards should not be underestimated. Shenwu County is not big, and three thousand guards guards are also a problem for us. They will definitely not go out of the city to fight with us." Luo Yi said.

Three-eyed tiger smiled coldly, "As long as they have not lost their minds, they will naturally refuse to fight with us. Three thousand guards are indeed a problem. Luo Yi, tomorrow, five thousand auxiliary soldiers will be ordered to come to Shenwu County and siege the city!"

"Use auxiliary soldiers?" Luo Yi said in surprise.

"Let him surround him for three or two days first!" said the three-eyed tiger. "Make them restless, try to fight again. If they can't defeat, continue to siege the city. Once the second leader takes down Shuocheng, we will besiege the city with auxiliary soldiers. The three thousand main forces will follow me to abandon Shenwu and go directly to Xiangzhou City."

"What if the three thousand defenders left the city to attack the auxiliary soldiers at this time?" Luo Yi shook his head, "Although there are many five thousand auxiliary soldiers, their combat power is low. Let them transport food and grass, build roads, and keep alert. If they fight in the field, they will definitely lose to their opponents."

"I'm afraid they won't come out!" Sanyan Hu sneered, "Five thousand auxiliary soldiers are just bait! If they want to swallow this bait, they have to pay their own price."

Luo Yi was shocked and said, "Sacrificing five thousand auxiliary soldiers?"

"Not many people will die!" The three-eyed tiger reached out and pulled up a green seedling from the ground, peeled off the floating leaves outside, put the orange stalk in his mouth and chewed vigorously. "Once the second leader takes down Shuocheng, if we can't conquer Shenwu for a long time, it will inevitably leave hidden dangers. The auxiliary soldiers can be summoned at any time, but the fighter will be fleeting!"

"Brother Hu, I understand!"

"Send many sentry probes to the direction of Jingzhou. My only worry is the reinforcements from that direction. Cheng Qun's guards did not lack cavalry. During the battle of Cangjiang, Cheng Qun once gathered tens of thousands of cavalry to attack the Mongolians. Now, although his main force is distributed in Jiangzhou and confronts Su Can in a good relationship, as long as some of the cavalry come to support, it will be enough to pose a huge threat to us." The three-eyed tiger ordered.

"Yes, Brother Hu, don't worry, in the direction of Jingzhou, I put out seven or eight sentries. Even if I encounter threats, someone will be able to escape back to report the news. But now, a group of people have not come back, which means that the direction of Jingzhou is safe." Luo Yi said.

"Although that's the case, you still need to be careful. It only takes one day for the cavalry to come from Jingzhou border city to Shenwu." The three-eyed tiger spit out the residue in his mouth.

"Brother Hu means, I will put the whistle driver farther?"

The three-eyed tiger nodded, "It has been put into Jingzhou."

"yes!"

In Shenwu County, in the county government, more than a dozen people dressed in civilians were tied up and pressed into the yard. A general stood on the steps with his sword. In the yard, rows of soldiers stood solemnly.

"Have you cleaned up?" the general asked in a cold voice.

"Report to General Tu'an, we have been watching these people for a long time. After they heard the news, we captured them one by one. Now that Shenwu has been blocked, they have no effect anymore." A captain said with his fist.

Tu An nodded, "Kill!"

With a steel knife swing, more than ten human skulls rolled onto the ground, and blood splattered all over the stone slabs in the yard.

"Kill it to sacrifice the flag!" Tu An smiled at the sky, "Bai Lian Sect bandits, I'm afraid you never dreamed that there were indeed only three thousand defenders in Shenwu County, but these three thousand people did not have the Xiangzhou Town Army, but the elite guards of my leadership. Our army had already entered Xiangzhou a month ago. If you come, don't go back!"

"General Cheng is planning and General Liu Huajian is in charge of this battle. What kind of three-eyed tiger model Wenxuan will definitely be awarded the head this time!" The captain also said flatteringly with a smile.

"Five thousand elite cavalry and three thousand elite infantrymen. This time, I want to see how this three-eyed tiger that traverses the northwest ends?" Tu An smiled and said, "Let him be proud for a while first. We have to wait until that white lotus saint rushed to the city of Xiangzhou before we can take action!"

Three-eyed Tiger thought of everything, but he didn't expect that Cheng Qun had prepared a long-term battle plan, which had already entered the final stage. He put the whistle cavalry into Jingzhou, but only saw Jingzhou's border cities being closely guarded, closed the city gates and prepared for the battle, but no soldiers left Jingzhou. It seemed that he was just like he was only sweeping away the snow of his own door. Regardless of the frost on others, the reinforcements he was worried about had already entered Xiangzhou a month ago. Five thousand cavalrymen were ambushing the mountains near the direction of Xiangzhou City in Shenwu County. Liu Huajian was quietly waiting for the Three-eyed Tiger.

"Attack!" Three days later, with Luo Yi's order, the siege troops composed of five thousand auxiliary soldiers shouted and rushed towards the thin Shenwu County City amid the sound of war drums. Simple, the ladder that was made of logging outside Shenwu County was erected on the city wall, carrying the bumping wood with green leaves, and hitting the city gate heavily. With the sound of a loud noise, it seemed that the entire city wall was trembling.

Behind the attacking infantry, the three thousand cavalry supervising the formation, led by the Three-eyed Tiger, stared at the battlefield in the distance with fierce eyes.

As teams of soldiers and ants were attached to them, rows of soldiers suddenly stood up on the quiet city wall. The feather arrows shot out from top to bottom like locusts. The siegemen rushed down one after another. Pushing rods were pressed onto the cloud ladder. Dozens of soldiers worked together and pushed the cloud ladder far away from the city wall with shouts. The soldiers who were climbing onto the city wall screamed and fell down.

"Go!" The three-eyed tiger looked back at the generals around him. With the whistling sound, hundreds of cavalrymen rode forward, rushed straight under the city, and walked around the city. The long bow in their hands was pulled open like a full moon. With the whistling sound, feather arrows rushed straight to the city wall, shooting down half of the defenders who were exposed outside one by one. A blank suddenly appeared on the city wall. Amid the cheers, the ladder that had just been pushed out was put up again, and more people climbed up.

"The sprinting is so skillful, no wonder this person can traverse the northwest and see such a powerful cavalry in the inner belly of the mainland. It is really like being on the battlefield with the Mongolian army!" On the city tower, Tu An sighed: "I don't know where this White Lotus Saint is from, but he can actually train such an elite cavalry! What a pity, no matter how strong he is, he cannot be strong enough."

Shaking his head, Tu An ordered: "Gather the crossbows and interfere with these cavalry. Even if you can't shoot them, you can't let them be so unscrupulous!"

The whistling crossbow indeed caused great interference to the cavalry. The feather arrows shot by the cavalry no longer had the previous accuracy and became a frontal blow to the infantrymen on both sides.

From the fierce battle of sunrise to the midday of sunrise, the three-eyed tiger finally roared to withdraw its troops. With a fierce battle of thousands, he paid the price of nearly a thousand people. The results he achieved were only attacking the city wall several times, but was immediately driven down. The combat effectiveness of the Xiangzhou Town Army was a bit beyond his expectations. Originally, he thought that even if he captured Shenwu County, he could cause certain casualties to his opponents, but now it seems that the opponent's response is extremely well-behaved and decisive.
