Chapter 822 The barbarians move westward

Jinzhou.

After several days of rest, the Northern Expedition Army advanced to Yingzhou, Raozhou and Jianzhou according to Niu Ben's plan.

At the same time, news from the Sewei also spread to the General Staff located in Jinzhou.

"The barbarians are evacuating the tribes in the city." Niu Ben was a little surprised. This was the news that the secret guard had just sent.

The secret guard who came to send the information said: "It's not wrong. The news comes from Shengdu. Now the barbarian Khan has ordered the slaughter of slaves and burn the city."

"Beast!" Niu Ben hit the table fiercely, and the barbarians became even more cruel and violent after the defeat.

After walking out of the camp, Niu Ben called a team of hunting cavalrymen and said, "You should immediately inform Luo Xin, Lei Ming and Niu Ben, let them speed up their march and occupy three cities as soon as possible."

"Yes, general." The hunting cavalry turned and left. Now the army has not been able to set off for long, and they can still catch up.

After giving the order, Niu Ben turned around and wanted to return to the tent, when a team of cavalry suddenly arrived.

The cavalry stopped in front of the bull running and threw the five people tied to the horses on the ground. The cavalry company commander in charge said, "General, we found five sneaky Japanese while patrolling."

Niu Ben frowned slightly, and he looked at the five people on the ground. The five people dressed in a businessman and were not tall. At first glance, they didn't look much different from those of the people of Dayu.

"Did they say something?" Niu Ben asked.

The cavalry company commander said depressedly: "General, we asked, but we don't understand the bird songs they said at all. Let the court send an interpreter to come."

"Qingzhou is too far away, it will take half a month to go back and forth. Now you go to Liaozhou and ask Ye Qingyun. He has been in Goryeo and I believe he will recognize a few people who know how to talk. After all, Goryeo and the pirates in Japan have always been in harmony."

The cavalry company commander responded and turned to Liaozhou. Jinzhou was very close to Liaozhou and it only took one and a half days to ride a horse.

Watching the cavalry leave, Niu Ben ordered: "Precaution the five people strictly, and they must not be allowed to die."

"Yes, general." The guards immediately took the five people down.

At the same time, the hunting cavalry who left the city chased after the three armies.

Luo Xin, who went to Raozhou one hour later, received Niu Ben's order, and he immediately ordered to accelerate his journey towards Raozhou City.

However, in his opinion, even if he accelerates his progress, he will probably only get an empty city. However, the news about the Secret Guard is very timely, and there may be hope for now, rushing against time.

Compared to Luo Xin's concerns, Lei Ming who went to Yingzhou was very calm because Yingzhou was too close to them and too far away from the barbarians, so they could easily arrive in advance.

Lu Fei was even more indifferent than the two, because Jianzhou was the most barren of these six cities, and he did not expect the Jianzhou city to provide any supplies. All the Dayu Kingdom wanted was this city to show its sphere of influence, and at the same time, it acted as a bridgehead to attack the grassland and explored northward.

However, despite this, Niu Ben's orders had to be ignored, and he also issued an order to march quickly.

After his order was issued, the soldiers immediately trotted. It was a necessary training event for the recruits to marches quickly when they were training. In addition, they also had to run with heavy loads.

So when faced with the order, the soldiers were very calm.

Three days later, the army led by Luo Xin appeared in Raozhou, which should have arrived in four days.

Qi Guangyi, who arrived first, said, "After the barbarians evacuated Raozhou City yesterday, the barbarian soldiers began to burn the city in the city. After our cavalry arrived, some barbarian cavalry did not fight with us and evacuated Raozhou City. Now there are still some barbarian cavalry and infantry in the city that have not been withdrawn."

Luo Xin said: "Since the barbarians have moved westward, they will definitely not fight to the death with us in Raozhou City. Once the city gate is broken, they will inevitably run away in panic. It will not be too late to send cavalry to chase after us."

Qi Guangyi nodded.

This time Niu Ben sent him to Raozhou City for a purpose. Now the barbarian city has basically been removed, and the rest are only barbarian tribes on the grassland. If you want to expel these barbarian tribes, you will still need their cavalry.

After all, the cavalry's mobility on the grassland is too strong, and ordinary footsteps cannot keep up.

The two of them decided to fight. At this time, Luo Xin asked the artillery to set up a battle and attacked the gate of Raozhou City.

Under the power of the new shells, the gate of Raozhou City was vulnerable, and two shells blew up the entire wooden gate.

"Blow up the charge!" Luo Xin was full of confidence. The victory of Jinzhou City made him see clearly the fact that the barbarians were just paper tigers, and before absolute force, the barbarians could only retreat.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the charge sounded, and the soldiers with high morale were yelling and rushing towards Raozhou City.

"Soldiers, we can sleep comfortably after taking down Raozhou City." Luo Xin shouted.

His words stimulated the soldiers who had marched urgently for three days, and they rushed into the city with their last little strength.

At this time, the barbarian soldiers in the city were already like frightened birds. The soldiers who fled back from Jinzhou City described the firearms of the Great Yu Kingdom very terrifying, and the terrifying legend about "earth fire" also spread.

"Run, the Great Yu Kingdom is here."

Some barbarian soldiers saw the soldiers of the Great Yu Kingdom holding muskets and ran away. Now all the tribesmen in the city have withdrawn, and the remaining orders are to massacre and burn the city.

But compared to their own lives, they were obviously unwilling to risk slaughtering slaves who were as cheap as grass in their eyes.

"Bang bang bang..."

The army of the Great Yu Kingdom that entered the city was almost chasing the barbarian soldiers. After shooting at close range, they rushed up with bayonets.

At this time, the Great Yu Kingdom was the best in the number of soldiers and combat effectiveness in Raozhou City. Faced with the fierce offensive, the barbarian soldiers continued to retreat from the east gate to the west gate.

Two hours later, the army of the Great Yu Kingdom occupied Raozhou City in full. However, under the destruction of the barbarians, there were fires everywhere in the city, and the soldiers were once again involved in the firefighting operation.

Outside the city, Qi Guangyi had been waiting for the barbarian soldiers who escaped from the city. He estimated that only more than 10,000 barbarian soldiers ran out of the city.

And most of them are infantry.

Looking at the thick smoke in the city, Qi Guangyi's eyes became cold, and he also had to treat the cruel barbarians with cruelty.

"Kill, no one will stay!" Qi Guangyi urged him to sit down his war horse, and rushed to the chaotic barbarian soldiers first.

In an instant, the war horses rushing at high speed directly knocked the barbarian soldiers away. At the same time, Qi Guangyi slashed left and right, and the barbarian soldiers kept wailing before their death.
