"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 547
The northern army under Li Kou wiped out the powerful black cavalry army in front of everyone with a destructive attitude, which made everyone admire the powerful combat effectiveness of the northern army.
Now that the fourth prince announced that Li Kou was the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses, to control the troops, no one dared to disagree.
Even those who have opinions have to weigh their weight in the face of the mighty Northern Army.
In addition to announcing Li Kou as the Marshal of the Army and Horses, the Fourth Prince also promoted the Governor of Pingyang Province who was defending Heiyan City, and appointed him as a pacifier.
Now the fourth prince is not yet the emperor, in order to avoid the fact that the population will be confirmed, the Governor of Pingyang Province has not been appointed as the current official position of the court.
The appeasement envoy was also created by the fourth prince himself. The task of the appeasement envoy was to be in charge of local government affairs and raise food and salaries for the army.
?Compared to the fact that the governor of Pingyang Province is only the military and political chief of Pingyang Province, the scope of the appeasement envoy's jurisdiction has been greatly increased.
All the provincial government affairs that rely on the Fourth Prince are under the overall control of the appeasement envoys, and their actual status is second only to the Fourth Prince and Marshal Li Kou.
Although the Tian family almost wiped out this time, they have now received a generous reward from the fourth prince.
In addition to the head of the Tian family becoming the third most powerful person in the faction of the four princes, the children of the Tian family also quickly rose to important positions.
"Although we wiped out the Black Cavalry Army, the Guards stationed outside the city are still a huge threat to us."
"So I decided to defeat the imperial guards within half a month and recover all the prefectures and counties in Pingyang Province."
Li Kou couldn't wait to exercise his power after officially taking the post of Generalissimo of the Rebel Army.
Li Kou is now leading the 200,000 northern army to the south, holding heavy troops, and he doesn't pay attention to the imperial guards at all.
And now he intends to increase the popularity of the Northern Army and increase his personal prestige, all of which need to be achieved through war.
"The Pingyang provincial garrison, the provincial local garrison, and the civilian army in the province have been reorganized into the First Corps of the Rebel Army, which is under my direct command."
The troops now relying on the fourth prince are also mottled and messy, so in order to facilitate unified command, Li Kou decided to reorganize them.
"I agree with Marshal Li's decision."
Li Kou's decision was approved by the fourth prince, because the fourth prince also fought in battle and knew the importance of unified command.
Although all the troops are now handed over to Li Kou, the fourth prince is not worried that he has two minds.
Because all the military pay and food are in the hands of the newly appointed pacifier, without the pay, Li Kou can't make any trouble.
Moreover, the newly formed First Corps of the Rebel Army was reorganized from various troops in Pingyang Province, and being restrained by Li Kou did not mean that they would follow him.
What's more, there are hundreds of thousands of troops in eight provinces supporting him. If the Northern Army has two hearts, it will also be besieged.
"Since the reorganization of the First Corps of the Rebel Army will take time, the next battle will be handed over to our Northern Army."
What Li Kou wanted now was to improve his personal prestige and increase the popularity of the Northern Army, so he found a reason and decided not to let the First Corps of the Rebel Army participate in the battle.
Fortunately, the units of the First Corps of the Rebel Army are now scattered everywhere, and there are only more than 3,000 people left in Black Rock City. Even if they are sent to the battlefield, they are not enough to fit their teeth.
Li Kou, the Marshal of the Rebel Army, issued a series of orders vigorously and resolutely, and completed the deployment of the battle.
The imperial guards stationed outside Black Rock City were also not idle, and the northern army joined the battle on the side of the fourth prince, catching them off guard.
Now General Zuo of the Imperial Guard, apart from urgently reporting to the capital for help, also dispatched scouts as soon as possible, trying to find out the actual strength of the Northern Army.
The Northern Army has been stationed in the northern border area all year round, causing many people to ignore them.
Now that the Northern Army has annihilated tens of thousands of Black Cavalry troops as soon as it appeared on the stage, the Imperial Guard General Zuo was also shocked.
Now he didn't dare to go out to fight at all, and urgently ordered the various departments of the Imperial Guard to reinforce the camp urgently, posing a long-term confrontation and waiting for help.
General Zuo of the imperial guards tried to wait for help, and restrained the fourth prince and the northern army in the area of ??Heiyan City, Pingyang Province, to buy time for the prince to mobilize troops.
However, General Zuo ignored his opponent. The northern army came from afar, but they came to confront him. Instead, they wanted to fight to the king's capital and push the fourth prince to the throne.
SecondAs soon as the day was measured, the camp of the northern army, which had been resting for the night, became noisy. The troops buried pots and cooked food, the soldiers fed the horses, wiped the weapons, and prepared for the battle.
The Imperial Guards have also been monitoring the Northern Army. Seeing the smoke rising from the Northern Army camp, they did not dare to neglect, and actively prepared for the battle.
After breakfast, amidst the high-spirited horns, teams of energetic Northern Army cavalry drove out of the camp and lined up in the wilderness.
"Pass down the order, stick to the camp, and prepare to meet the enemy!"
Seeing the strict Northern Army cavalry phalanx standing in the wilderness, the left general of the Imperial Guard also twitched slightly, and ordered to prepare for the battle with a dark face.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Outside the city of Heiyan, the sound of war drums rang out. Major General Li Yi stared at the camp of the guards who were waiting in full force, with a sneer on his lips.
"The first battalion of heavy cavalry, the first battalion of light cavalry, and the second battalion attack from the front!"
"The third battalion of light soldiers, the fourth battalion is attacking from the left!"
"The fifth battalion of Qingqi, the sixth battalion is attacking from the right!"
Generalissimo Li Kou and the Fourth Prince watched the battle at the head of Heiyan City, and the commander in charge was Major General Li Yi.
Following Li Yi's order, more than a dozen messengers galloped out and issued the orders one by one.
After receiving the order, the cavalry units of the Northern Army rode their horses slowly amidst the roar of the sky, preparing for speeding up.
Seeing the cavalry units of the Northern Army rolling forward like a wave, the guards in the camp all raised their hearts to their throats.
"kill!"
The horses of the cavalry of the Northern Army became faster and faster, and soon formed the roar of landslides and ground cracks, rolling towards the camp of the Imperial Guards.
The soldiers near the camp of the Imperial Guards all turned pale in the face of the cavalry that swept in like a tsunami.
Because so many cavalry are rushing forward, the indomitable momentum is really frightening, as if it can destroy everything.
Major General Li Yi has been fighting on the border since he was fifteen years old. After so many years of training, he is not stupid enough to let the light cavalry go to the camp of the Imperial Guards.
When the charging northern light cavalry fell within the arrow range of the Janissary camp, they all bent their bows and set up arrows, and began to shoot arrows at the Janissary camp. ,
With a sharp whistling sound, the overwhelming arrows quickly enveloped the vicinity of the Imperial Guard barracks.
"Shhhhhhh!"
"Puff puff!"
"ah!"
The imperial guards were ready to fight in close combat, but suddenly faced with the blow of arrows, they were killed and injured immediately.
The northern army light cavalry who had finished shooting arrows were divided into two like a tide in front of the Janissary camp, took a turn and regrouped, and then attacked again according to the script.
Waves of arrows poured into the camp of the Imperial Guards. Facing the densely packed arrows, the vicinity of the camp of the Imperial Guards shot like hedgehogs, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
Under the cover of several rounds of arrows from the Northern Army's light cavalry, the infantry units of the Janissary, who were waiting in full battle, suffered casualties and confusion, and their organizational system became incomplete.
"Heavy ride, get on!"
After seeing the heavy casualties of the Imperial Guards near the Imperial Guard camp, Major General Li Yi sneered and ordered heavy cavalry to charge. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
