Lulin Camp.
Early in the morning, Yuan Cong began to train his troops.
In the past few years, Yuan Cong has also experienced ups and downs.
He was first promoted to the rank of General of the Left Tunwei Army, and then transferred to guard the important Beilu Pass. However, because he lost Beilu Pass, he and his entire family were nearly executed.
Later, thanks to Yun Li's protection, he was lucky enough to survive.
Afterwards, he was sent to Suizhou to train new soldiers, and now he has been transferred to the front line of Juzhou, commanding 15,000 elite soldiers to guard the gateway of Juzhou.
After going through so many hardships, Yuan Cong has become more calm than before.
Although his current rank is much lower than that of the General of the Left Tunwei, he is already very satisfied that he is still alive and can be employed by the court.
He no longer has any grand ambitions. He just wants to train these 15,000 elite soldiers well and live up to the great kindness of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The Yuan family no longer had any choice but to cling tightly to Yun Li, the big tree.
...
...
I will go through fire and water without hesitation!
Yun Li transferred him to the forefront of Juzhou's defense line, which was also a sign of his trust in him.
As long as Yun Zheng dares to attack, he will be dealt a heavy blow!
"Have you not eaten yet? Cheer up!"
Yuan Cong stood on the platform and shouted loudly.
"kill!"
"kill!"
“…”
Under Yuan Cong's strict supervision, the soldiers did not dare to be lazy. They all trained with all their might, and shouted murderous roars in the training ground.
Looking at the soldiers who were so motivated, Yuan Cong couldn't help but nod slightly.
The soldiers under his command were not only fully armored, but they had also all been equipped with new weapons made of patterned steel by the imperial court. After training for so long, these soldiers knew how to advance and retreat in a measured manner, and they cooperated with each other very skillfully. They could barely be considered elite soldiers.
It’s a pity that most of these soldiers have never been on a real battlefield.
It's still a little bit short of being a well-trained soldier who has experienced many battles.
Soldiers who have not experienced fighting on the battlefield can never be considered true elite soldiers!
Just as Yuan Cong was daydreaming, a man and a horse quickly rushed into the camp and headed straight for the generals' platform.
Arriving at the reviewing platform, the soldiers quickly dismounted and reported in a panic: "General, King Jingbei led his troops across the border and is attacking our camp!"
"What?"
Yuan Cong's expression changed drastically, and he quickly asked, "How many soldiers did Yun Zheng bring?"
"About three thousand elite cavalry!"
The soldier answered.
Three thousand elite cavalry?
A cold light flashed in Yuan Cong's eyes.
Good job Yun Zheng!
How dare a mere three thousand elite cavalrymen attack his camp directly?
Does he really think his cavalry is invincible?
I have recently researched a whole set of tactics to restrain cavalry!
If Yun Zheng dares to attack, I will make sure he never returns!
Yuan Cong was furious and immediately shouted: "Come here, report the situation to General Yang as soon as possible and ask General Yang to send troops to support us as soon as possible! Instruct the entire army to defend the camp and the archers to immediately go up to the arrow tower..."
As Yuan Cong's order was issued, the sound of rapid war drums immediately rang out in the camp.
Yuan Gui immediately ran over when he heard the drumbeats, "Dad, what happened?"
Yuan Cong said with a dark face: "Yun Zheng led three thousand elite cavalry and headed straight for our army camp!"
Yun Zheng?
When he heard this name, Yuan Gui's eyes suddenly spewed fire.
An irrepressible murderous intent surged from the bottom of his heart.
Yun Zheng!
This is the person he hates the most!
A small-scale martial arts performance in Sifang County last year forced him to recuperate at home for eight months.
These eight months were simply a huge torture for him.
The martial arts performance in Sifang County also left him with a huge psychological trauma.
Even now, whenever he thought of the martial arts performance, he felt pain in his body.
He wished he could tear Yun Zheng into pieces and let Yun Zheng taste the same great pain he had experienced.
"What are you still standing there for?"
Just when Yuan Gui was filled with hatred, Yuan Cong kicked him directly.
Yuan Gui was caught off guard and was almost kicked to the ground. He took a few steps back before he could steady himself.
"Get your seat!"
Yuan Cong glared at Yuan Gui, "It's time for Yun Zheng's elite cavalry to talk. If you let Yun Zheng's elite cavalry break through your defense, watch out for your head!"
Yuan Gui was slightly stunned, then he suddenly woke up and shouted: "I have received your order!"
Yuan Gui did not dare to delay and immediately returned to his position, leading his troops to launch a defense.
Just when they were ready for defense, Yun Zheng had already arrived at the camp with his personal guards.
Seeing that Yun Zheng really only had such a small number of people, Yuan Cong instantly felt more confident.
They are all infantrymen, and if they take the initiative to attack, they will definitely not be a match for these three thousand elite cavalry.
But if they deployed defense on the spot, it would be extremely difficult for Yun Zheng to break through their defense.
Looking at Yuan Cong's troops who were on high alert, Yun Zheng couldn't help but sneer.
"My Lord, you brought troops here without permission. What are you going to do?"
Yuan Cong stood on the tower of the camp and asked coldly.
After hearing Yuan Cong's words, Shen Kuan immediately rode forward and shouted, "How dare you, Yuan Cong, not leave the camp to greet the prince?"
Come out of the camp to greet you?
Yuan Cong snorted in his heart, but stared at Yun Zheng sternly: "It is my duty. The prince has brought his troops here without the emperor's order. I'm sorry that I can't go out of the camp to greet you!"
"Yuan Cong, are you blind?"
Yun Zheng looked at Yuan Cong coldly, "I am the King of Jingbei, the General of the State, and the Governor of Shuobei. I am leading my personal guards to discuss something with you. Do I need to obey the imperial edict?"
Royal Guards?
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Yuan Cong's face twitched violently.
These are three thousand elite cavalrymen!
And the Royal Guards?
"Your Majesty, please tell me what you want to say. I am listening!"
Yuan Cong said loudly.
"You are so good, Yuan Cong, how dare you not come forward and salute me when you see me!"
Yun Zheng's eyes flickered with coldness, and he ordered Shen Kuan: "Go, bring Yuan Cong to me!"
"yes!"
Shen Kuan took the order and immediately led more than a hundred elite cavalrymen to approach the camp in a swaggering manner.
Yuan Cong's expression changed drastically. He suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Archers, get ready!"
"Yuan Cong, try shooting an arrow!"
Yun Zheng looked at Yuan Cong coldly and shouted, "If you dare to shoot an arrow, I will kill everyone in your Yuan family!"
Yuan Cong's heart trembled suddenly, but he didn't dare to put his raised hand down.
He was also a man who once served as the General of the Left Tunwei Guard.
He knew very well that as long as he gave the order to shoot, Yun Zheng's hundred or so personal guards would be shot into sieves.
But as long as Yun Zheng is fine, his life will surely be over.
Regardless of whether Yun Zheng kills him or not, the mere fact of provoking a war between the imperial court and Yun Zheng is enough to cost the lives of the entire Yuan family.
If that time really comes, don't expect the court and Yun Li to save him.
After all, Yun Zheng was not openly rebelling, he just came with his "royal guards".
In order to appease Yun Zheng's anger, the imperial court would definitely hand over the entire Yuan family to Yun Zheng for disposal without hesitation.
While Yuan Cong was struggling and hesitating, Shen Kuan had already led his men to the gate of the camp and directly removed the barricades blocking the entrance of the camp.
The soldiers guarding the gate did not dare to shoot arrows, nor did they dare to let them pass. They could only block the entrance of the camp together and block their way with the cold tips of their guns.
“Get out of the way!”
Shen Kuan shouted angrily, glancing coldly at the soldiers at the gate of the village, "Yuan Cong is committing treason, I have been ordered to arrest him, anyone who dares to stop me will be killed without mercy!"
After saying that, Shen Kuan burst into a strong murderous intent and rushed forward...
