The harbor has thick walls, high watchtowers, and many warehouses in the middle of the harbor.

Zheng Pingyuan ordinary people jumped up, climbed the watchtower, and saw a large cloud of smoke and dust billowing in the wilderness.

This large cloud of smoke and dust can only be found by the cavalry galloping quickly.

Zheng Pingyuan ordered sharply: "Go to the wall, close the door, and prepare for battle!"

The sailors were urgent, and the first thing was the fire commander and grenade soldiers of the whole fleet, and they quickly lined up and nervously fortified against the wall.

At this time, Lu Suhai also hurriedly went up to the wall and looked into the distance.

The smoke and dust got closer and closer, and I saw a large banner, and below it were cavalrymen in armor, but it seemed that there were only about a hundred people, and immediately, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hu people's sentry!"

These cavalry roared in, and when they saw the endless stream of soldiers on the wall, as well as the banners of the Dacheng Dynasty, they were also taken aback, and quickly slowed down their horses, and stopped at a distance of one hundred and fifty paces from the wall.

These hundred horsemen are wearing Han armor, all of them have thick armor, thick figures, and are steady on their horses.

Zheng Pingyuan saw that the Hu people were leaving, so he came back and bowed slightly to Lu Suhai: "Governor Lu, please also preside over the overall situation of the port." ”

"Don't dare, Governor Zheng, you have occupied the port, and you are in charge. ”

The official positions of the two are equal, but the First Fleet ranks a little higher in terms of reputation, so Zheng Pingyuan salutes first, and Lu Suhai has to return the salute.

Both of them have their own bearings, wearing iron armor, faintly showing majesty.

But in fact, it is Zheng Pingyuan who is even more obvious, and between Gu Pan's demeanor, there is a majestic bearing, which is the intimidating energy of dragon qi.

Although the time is pressing, with the fleet as a retreat and tens of thousands of sailors, it is more than enough to build a defensive ground in a short time.

Mutual modesty, or decided to cooperate with Zheng Pingyuan and Lu Suhai.

Zheng Pingyuan glanced at it: "It seems that this is the enemy's sentry, the main force will arrive soon, we must quickly deploy the walls of the north and east of us." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Horses are very easy to lose fat when they travel long distances, how can the Hu people still have the strength to fight continuously?"

Lu Suhai was young, and when he heard this, he was still moved: "The Hu people are extremely slaughtering, and according to Youzhou, forty percent of the people have died, and the grain and beans collected are not countless. ”

"Now the Hu people and horses have three meals a day, all of which are fried noodles and bean cakes in salted water, and each horse eats the food of five people, so as to ensure the combat power, this is the blood of the people and the marrow of the people!"

After hearing this, there was silence around him, and after a while, Zheng Pingyuan sighed: "Let's go to the warehouse." ”

Although the port had not yet been subjected to the baptism of war, a few days ago, the nearby merchants had felt uneasy and moved to the distant city.

If they are caught up in the flames of war, not only will it be difficult to save their belongings and even their own lives, and even if the war does not affect the port, the port will not be open to the public for a long time.

The temporary resting warehouse has been cleaned up, and there are wooden chairs, and the upper positions are naturally Zheng Pingyuan and Lu Suhai.

The left and right sides were clearly distinguished, and the generals and soldiers of the First and Second Fleets were all standing, all of them in well-equipped armor and cloaks, and they were all looking at each other without saying a word.

Although the First Fleet and the Second Fleet are at odds with each other, they are trying to compete with each other, and in terms of atmosphere, it is a lion and tiger contest.

Looking at Lu Suhai, who was listening intently to the report, Zheng Pingyuan's expression was a little complicated.

In the war, Lu Suhai was able to cooperate tacitly and led the First Fleet to lead him away from trouble, and he has the current victory.

Even if the two were rivals in the past, Zheng Pingyuan was a little grateful for Lu Suhai's cooperation.

He is not Lu Suhai, he is not a close confidant of the emperor, he did not follow the emperor from the beginning, although he has the idea of competing, he is not dizzy.

At this moment, news came one after another, and the situation of the entire port had a general opinion.

"The target of the Hu people must also be the port of Baima, and now the port wall is still basically intact, I mean, immediately transfer all the fire and grenades of the two fleets to the front of the city for defensive warfare, what do you think?"

What I am afraid of is that Lu Suhai is young and vigorous, and he goes out of the city to fight.

Lu Suhai also understood, and said: "Zheng Tiandu is superintendent, we are sailors, how can we fight with the army, especially the cavalry on land, and use the city wall and fire to resist ......." Did you hear that? ”

The admiral of the First Fleet immediately responded: "Yes, Grand Governor." ”

"That being the case, I will send half of the sailors to repair the walls of the city, dig the trenches, and bring all the fire and grenades to the front of the city. Seeing this, Zheng Pingyuan did not shirk and immediately began to give orders: "And a small number of cavalry on the fleet will immediately go ashore to reconnoiter and determine where the main force of the Hu people is." ”

There are still a few cavalry on the fleet, this is the herald, after going ashore to deliver the news, now the two fleets are concentrated, there are about 200, can take on the sentry.

At this time, the iron armor was strong, and everyone stood up and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

At a glance, there is no edge of the Hu cavalry camp, the total number of which is as high as fifteen thousand, stretching for more than ten miles.

In the dense tent, the huge luxury tent is the main tent, and the surrounding guards are all elites.

The big tent was lifted, and hundreds of households stepped forward to tell them about the situation one by one.

Hurbo sat quietly, just listening, not saying a word, but his heart was extremely angry and angry.

As soon as Hanoi County is broken and the port of Baima is captured, it can be crossed by the river.

In fact, there is already a secret envoy to Luoyang, and Liu Manzi will cooperate at that time, even if he can't respond to the outside in one fell swoop and kill Wang Hongyi in one fell swoop, he can also greatly frustrate his morale.

I didn't want the army to rush in a hurry, but I still took a step, and the Baima Port Naval Division lost, and was attacked by the Dacheng Naval Division first.

Now in the past, the port can only be recaptured from the hands of the Tiancheng Naval Division.

But even if it is recaptured, with the sailor scraping the Yellow River, the use of his own power will be weakened by half.

And the strength of the Tiancheng Naval Division is also very strong, the three fleets have 60,000 people, and now there are two in the Yellow River, which is 40,000 people, although the naval division cannot go ashore, but it still takes a lot of strength and time to really take the White Horse Port.

And now in Luoyang, there is no best news coming, which is undoubtedly a setback for Hu Erbolai, if Luoyang clearly falls, the situation will be very different.

However, it is now only seventy miles away from the port of Hakuba, and such a short distance may take a day if it is an infantry, and a large cavalry army can reach its destination in two hours.

Looking at the White Horse Harbor, Hu Erbo was full of worries.

At this time, the internal contradictions of the Hu people had already exploded.

The steppe is unified, and the tribes are right to submit to the strong, but all the blood feuds that have been fought against each other for ten or even hundreds of years must not be completely eliminated.

After the unification of the steppe, his father Khan made wise decisions, compiled a new system, severe constraints, and military law was like iron.

Ten Hu soldiers formed a squadron led by a commander of ten, ten ding, a squadron of centurions led by a centurion, ten squadrons of centurions led by a commander of a thousand, and a brigade of ten centurions led by a commander of ten thousand.

As soon as the order came out, tens of thousands of people were like their hearts making their arms, like their arms making their fingers, like one person.

The horns of the army stopped three times, and there was a black pressure in front of the main tent, and the 10,000 people were neatly arranged, except for the horses breathing and panting, there was no whispering or the sound of weapons clashing.

This is not only a need for military law, but also a de facto abolition of the tribes and the replacement of military law camps.

If there is more than three or five years, Khurbo believes that with his father Khan and his own skills, he can become an iron bucket, but now that he is unified, he will raise troops to invade the Central Plains, and there will be a problem with his husband.

Of the cavalry he brought this time, only 3,000 were his own tribes, and more than 5,000 were the tribes conquered when he pacified the grasslands in the past, and there were also slaves who were caused by the war of conquest.

Of course, these slaves are also Hu people, but unfortunately they are at the bottom of the class, such soldiers, in a smooth battle, can still expound the role, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to command in a mess.

And although the status of these slaves is low, most of them are rare young adults, with not weak combat effectiveness, originally according to military law, a few years later, they can cancel the status of slaves and redeem their relatives because of meritorious service, and gradually integrate into the khanate.

If the war is won, these slaves and soldiers will also have the opportunity to be promoted, and obtain benefits, so the contradictions will gradually be eliminated, but now the war is not smooth, how serious the war is to the attrition, and how much the contradiction is made, the father Khan and himself understand.

The whole khanate, those who do not advance retreat!

Just as he was thinking about it, the sound of horses' hooves came quickly from a distance.

"Report!"

"It's our people who are back. Hurbo looked out.

After a while, another hundred households came to the front of the infantry team, turned over and dismounted and knelt on the ground, and reported: "Your Highness, the second batch of news, after the Han Chengguo Navy Division occupied Baima Port, the wall is being built, and it seems that they have known the news of our army!"

"Really?" Huerbo's face did not change, he was such a large group of cavalry, and the other party had not yet noticed it, and it was too wasteful.

Even if you are aware of it, you will definitely be able to defend this Hakuba port?

This inevitably looks down on the elite cavalry on the prairie, which is the eagle on the prairie.

But I also know that if I don't give them a good look, these people will not recognize this.

"Presumably, the sailor general who occupies Baima Port is also a famous figure in the Dacheng Dynasty, so let's see who is the hero!"

At this moment, Khurbo laughed, put aside all the sorrow in his heart, and ordered: "Pull out the camp, send troops to Baima Port, and you must arrive at noon!"

This was the first time he really led the army to fight against Wang Hongyi, a Han hero, and for a while, Huerbo was full of pride.

I am the son of the grassland, so I will fight here to see who is the real hero! @
