Chapter 1030 Three days later, choose the right time to act!
Tiandao League.
Early in the morning, Ning Fan came to the martial arts training ground of the village. Thousands of men were arranged in formation, holding weapons and practicing continuously.
"One!"
"Kill!"
"Two!"
"Kill!"
Jia Xu walked over with a hurried pace, leaned close to Ning Fan and whispered: "My lord, Quan Ji is dead!"
"Yes!"
Ning Fan was not surprised. With the underworld taking action, Quan Ji would definitely not survive. He just didn't know what losses he had suffered.
"What's the next step for Li Ru?"
"In the palace, they are preparing to take action."
"Yes!"
Ning Fan nodded, glanced at the martial arts training ground, and said in a deep voice: "Notify the Huaxia Legion, the Qin Legion, the Han Legion, and the Tang Legion to prepare for a general attack!"
"Yes!"
"Has there been any information from Zhang Jiao?"
"My lord, Zhang Jiao has already controlled the Kaiyang County Government and can rise up at any time to directly control the entire county!"
"It's almost the same for Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao!"
"They are professionals in rebellion, and professional things should be left to professionals!"
"We have to keep up with the pace here!"
Ning Fan thought for a moment and said softly: "Have you contacted all the nearby villages?"
"My lord, we have contacted a total of twelve villages in the past few days, and none of them have clearly stated that they are willing to follow us in the uprising."
"It's just that many people have been in the big Recruit soldiers and horses to expand strength!"
"Some local county governments have already noticed something unusual!"
After Jia Xu finished speaking, he looked at Ning Fan seriously: "My Lord, you and General Dian Wei must not show up for this matter!"
"Why?"
"A king should not tarnish his reputation!"
"Now, the uprising of bandits is just our means. You must not be involved in it, otherwise, it will be unjust in the future!"
"Whether it is the Tiandao League or the underworld, they are ultimately shameful means!"
"If I, Dayu, want to make the country righteous, I must defeat the other countries in an upright manner. Whether it is the Tiandao League or the civil uprising, it has nothing to do with my Dayu Dynasty!"
"Hmm!"
Ning Fan also showed a thoughtful look. What Jia Xu said was not unreasonable. Even in the end, the Tiandao League still had to submit to the court. In any case, Dayu would never admit that the Tiandao League was a force he supported!
"I've made a note of this!"
"Send a message to Li Ru and Zhang Jue. Three days later, the Tiandao League will start an uprising. Let them act at the right time!"
"Yes!"
...
Beiyan City.
Lv Bu, wrapped in a battle robe, stood on the city wall. Although the weather has warmed up now, the northern border is still a bit cold. Even in the desert not far away, snowflakes are floating from time to time.
"General, the Hu slaves are going to attack the city again!"
"Catapults, get ready!"
"General, the stones in the city have been used up..."
"Tear down the houses!"
"Yes!"
Lv Bu's face showed a touch of determination. In fact, according to his idea, he could lead his army back to the court in one fell swoop, directly overthrow Emperor Yan, and destroy Yan in one fell swoop!
But the letter from His Highness asked him to stick to Beiyan City. After all, the conquest of the Central Plains is the business of the Central Plains people, and foreign races wanting to enter the pass are absolutely not allowed!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The dull drum sounded again, and outside the city wall, a large number of Hu Nu cavalrymen rode their horses towards the city gate.
The Hu Nu were not good at attacking, but their rangers rode and shot under the city, greatly increasing the pressure on the city defense.
"Shua!"
"Shua!"
A dense rain of arrows poured down on the tower. Every Hu Nu soldier on horseback was a master archer. The arrows like a storm suppressed the archers on the tower and made them unable to raise their heads.
Lu Bu held a longbow, bent the bow and aimed at a Hu Nu general below.
Three arrows were fired at once, directly shooting down three Hu Nu generals.
Lu Bu's move also greatly hit the morale of the Hu Nu, but facing the mighty Hu Nu army, he was still somewhat powerless.
"Go!"
"Go!"
Thousands of cavalrymen rode their horses and rushed up again. These people did not have bows and arrows in their hands, but held a long iron chain wrapped around their shoulders.
"What is this?"
Lv Bu showed a trace of doubt on his face, and an old general next to him said in shock: "Feiyun riders!"
"What do you mean?"
"General, quickly order people to shoot these people off their horses, and don't let them get close to the tower."
"Yes!"
Lv Bu hurriedly gave orders, but those Feiyun riders had already rushed to the bottom of the tower, and with a sudden swing of his arms, the iron chains that were wrapped around them instantly flew out, and they actually rushed directly to the tower.
"Hua La La!"
With the shaking sound of iron chains, thousands of riders who rushed to the front stood up directly from their horses, holding the iron chains in their hands, and rushed straight to the tower.
"Quick, cut the iron chains!"
"Throw the iron chains down!"
"Kerosene, prepare the kerosene, and pour it on the iron chains!"
Lv Bu gave orders directly, and as the figures rushed to the tower, the defenders on the tower were also a little flustered.
Lu Bu wielded his halberd and cut off a chain with one halberd, but the thousands of cavalry were scattered on both sides of the tower.
"Boom!"
As the kerosene poured down the chain, many people still climbed up the tower.
The Hu Nu army under the tower also stopped riding and shooting, and rushed to the bottom of the tower with ladders.
"Kill!"
A team of Hu Nu archers lined up under the tower. The black Hu Nu army climbed up the ladders with scimitars and wooden shields in hand!
Lu Bu looked a little ugly. Beiyan City was their first line of defense. But now, if the city gate was broken, their morale would be lost!
With a million Hu Nu troops entering the city, their situation would become passive.
"Come here!"
"Here!"
"Call the Wolf Guards and guard the city gate!"
"Yes!"
The Wolf Guards were the guards he picked from the guard camp after he came to the northern border. They were trained by him personally and each of them had the strength to fight one hundred.
On weekdays, they guarded the general's mansion, but now, Lu Bu had to use them.
"Hua Xiong!"
"I'm here."
"Take the Wolf Guards and seal the city gates!"
"Yes!"
"Xing Daorong!"
"Yes!"
"You are in charge of the east city wall. Don't let anyone enter the city!"
"Yes!"
The situation on the battlefield became more intense. Even Lu Bu was ready to break the city. The ferocity of the Hu Nu was far from comparable to the barbarians in the north of the desert.
The 300,000 Beiyan troops under Lu Bu's command also lost tens of thousands of troops after several battles. Some of them were in Qingcheng and Yinzhou. Beiyan City was the first important town, gathering 200,000 soldiers and horses.
Although there were two cities as retreat routes, they had no possibility of retreat.
Once the city was broken and they were defeated, how could they outrun the iron cavalry of the Hu Nu?
"General, urgent military information!"
A figure ran over in a hurry, and Lu Bu's eyes lit up. He knew this person. He was a spy of the Black Ice Platform, who was responsible for the intelligence liaison between him and Dayu.
"Urgent news!"
After Lu Bu quickly read through it, the worry in his heart finally fell.
