Chapter 179 War

On the other side, a few days after Jing Rui returned to the military camp, he got bad news from Cao Qianhu.

Dongling country has assembled 100,000 troops, and now 30,000 pioneers have passed the checkpoint and issued the gauntlet in front of the Beimo outpost 30 miles away.

If it wasn't for the fact that Dajing Rui led people to burn their food and grass, I'm afraid they would have given the war letter long ago, and because of burning their food and grass, they had to postpone the original plan.

The commander has already rushed 800 miles to return to Beijing as quickly as possible, and also sent someone to inform the commander-in-chief of Tongling City, a hundred miles away. The northern border is vast, and they are not the only team guarding the border.

There are two other cities that are fifty kilometers away from the left and right, with more than 5,000 people stationed in each. The commander sent his subordinates to send them news.

In this way, even if the Dongling army came over, their 5,000 troops would not be able to match, and the other two cities would send reinforcements, at least to withstand it for a while, and the chief soldier who delayed to a hundred miles away would bring troops to come to support.

The commander gave an order, all the troops assembled lightly, and set up camp in front of the outpost 30 miles away, waiting for orders.

The Dongling army originally wanted to attack Beimo in the spring and plunder the city of Beimo, but they did not expect that they would be plotted. In addition to losing food and grass that night, they also injured a lot of people, and the army was unstable.

This time, it made a comeback, and the Beimo army, who vowed to fight, was unable to fight back and got a big revenge.

The commander and the envoy had just arrived at the place with the troops, and before the military tent was set up, a general in Dongling led 3,000 people to yell outside the camp.

Said that the Beimo people were despicable, and the government sent people to burn their granary. How could the soldiers here listen to it, and they started to scold in a funny way, and said that the villain of Dongling country came first.

The general was scolded in a hurry, and his mouth was about to reveal his words: "Beimo dog, if you hadn't sent people to burn our food and grass, you would have been the dead souls of our Dongling sword, but even if this is the case, then Anyway, it's just a matter of one day after another, come out and die quickly."

This man shouted really arrogantly.

Everyone was scolded in front of him, and it was impossible for the commander to remain indifferent, so he sent three guards to fight.

At the beginning, they were able to fight, but Dongling's side was fully prepared, and Beimo's army had just marched 30 miles to come, and gradually the disparity became worse and they fell behind.

The commander was a little anxious, and was about to send another guard to support him, but saw an arrow coming out of the watchtower of the post, directly piercing the throat of the military general, killing the man on the spot.

Dongling's army was in chaos, and he retreated without even taking care of the little general's body.

Although Beimo won't win by force, it can be regarded as a victory in the first battle.

In the tent of the commander, Jing Rui was greatly appreciated by the commander, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are really young and promising, good, good, good."

Maybe also because of Jing Rui's performance, everyone's morale was high for a while.

The    commander let the lord know that it would take two days for the chief soldier to bring his troops over a hundred miles away, so they vowed to defend the thirty-li territory that was exchanged for the blood of countless soldiers.

The next two days were really difficult to defend. Even those trained by Jing Rui were injured to varying degrees. Dongling’s army used wheel warfare.

And they only had a mere 5,000 people, and the number of casualties was too high. The reinforcements from the cities on both sides had not yet arrived, and the troops of the general soldiers from a hundred miles away were still on their way.

You can only collect Yu Ding from the rear military household area to be recharged. For a time, the military household area was full of crying and shouting.
