~6 min read 1,190 words

Most of the troop types left behind in Zhending County were elites, among which there were three thousand cavalry.

For Su Li, it was actually a rare wealth.

Moreover, Zhending County is also a medium-sized city one level larger than Bai Yun City, possessing arrow towers, bed crossbows, and two catapults.

Plus the troops he brought with him.

Su Li believes that they can completely hold Zhending County.

As long as Zhending County is held, he can use the excuse of preventing bandits from coming to ravage Zhending again to forcibly move into Zhending.

For any player or local NPC faction that has traveled here, having their own territory and expanding their own territory is crucial for the future partition of the world by warlords.

Only with territory can there be more resources, manpower, and prestige.

…………

On the other side.

The Heishan Army canal marshal Zhang Niujiao commanded a massive army, advancing toward Zhending City like a dark cloud.

The Heishan Army that fled from the valley had long since found Zhang Niujiao and complained to him that a troop had launched a surprise attack on the valley and looted all the resources of the Heishan Army.

When Zhang Niujiao heard that the stronghold had been sneak-attacked and that gold, silver, equipment, and even food and grass had been emptied, he was furious at the time.

"Who is it that actually robbed my, Zhang Niujiao's, things!"

"According to what the little ones learned later."

"It should be that Bai Yun City Lord Su Li who has been in the limelight recently!"

Zhang Niujiao's originally furious face suddenly turned gloomy.

A person's name is like a tree's shadow.

Su Li's prestige in breaking the bandit leader Zhang Jiao and others during the Yellow Turban Rebellion had already spread in Jizhou.

Even Zhang Niujiao felt wary.

And at this time.

A Heishan Army scout also hurriedly came to report: "Leader, it's not good, after the Zhending County Magistrate and County Commandant died, the Changshan Administrator sent the Bai Yun City Lord Su Li to help, and he has already moved into Zhending County!"

"Damn it, it's this Su Li again, he actually dares to appear in front of me. Let's go, little ones, follow this leader to capture Zhending and kill that shitty extraordinary lord!"

Wary as he was, Zhang Niujiao, who commanded tens of thousands of troops, was not afraid and immediately sent troops to attack Zhending City.

After all, the stronghold had already been pulled out, and if they didn't capture a city to use as a supply point, they might collapse on their own due to food and grass problems.

…………

…………

Zhending County.

Su Li came to the camp under the city and began to gather the troop types.

The less than ten thousand troop types in the city still belonged to Zhending County for the time being.

He could not command them yet.

There must be a handover process.

Of course!

This process was not complicated either.

It was just that after Su Li gathered everyone, he said a few words, saying that now the Zhending County Magistrate and County Commandant had both died in battle, and the Changshan Administrator specifically asked him to take charge of the affairs of Zhending County, and so on.

Currently, Zhending County also lacked a backbone.

These troop type NPCs, whose morale had already been greatly reduced, naturally did not have many questions and converted to Su Li's command.

These troop types were all elites who had survived the great battle.

Among them were three thousand heavy cavalry, which were the elites among the elites.

Su Li specifically checked the troop type proficiency of these cavalry.

They had all reached the intermediate level, only one step away from advanced proficiency.

If it were before, it would still take several more great battles to pull the proficiency to advanced.

But now, after converting to his command.

Under the bonus of the hundredfold growth talent, perhaps it would only take one battle to successfully break through the proficiency to the advanced level.

At that time, they could be converted into the three thousand Crimson Blood Cavalry special troop types through the elite soldier camp.

"Big brother, the Heishan Army is at the city walls!"

Zhao Yu suddenly came to report.

"Hmm!"

Su Li nodded, thought for a moment, and said to Zhao Yu: "These three thousand heavy cavalry are temporarily handed over to you to lead."

"When we confront the Heishan Army later, Sister Xiao Yu, you must lead them to fight bravely and kill the enemy, while ensuring their safety."

"Sister Xiao Yu understands!"

Seeing Zhao Yu nod, Su Li went to the city wall with peace of mind.

At this time, Facing Guan Hai and Zhou Cang led their respective troop types and appeared on the city wall, overlooking the dense Heishan Army outside the city.

Su Li looked out.

He roughly estimated that there were three or four hundred thousand.

Leader Zhang Niujiao led so many troops to besiege Zhending City, obviously not stopping until he captured Zhending City.

This time, it was not like the Great Battle of Yecheng.

Su Li had no friendly forces and could only rely on his own strength to defeat the aggressive Heishan Army.

Seeing the Heishan Army getting closer and closer to Changshan City, Facing Guan Hai suggested carelessly: "My lord, they are just a group of Heishan petty bandits; when we were there before, they didn't dare to be presumptuous at all."

"Let me lead the brothers to kill out of the city directly and defeat them in one fell swoop."

"My lord, let me, Zhou, go instead."

"Let you see, the troops I, Zhou, trained are definitely stronger than this guy's!"

Zhou Cang was not to be outdone and took the initiative to ask for battle, also taking the opportunity to step on Facing Guan Hai.

"Damn it, why are your troops stronger? It's clearly the troops trained by Old Guan that are stronger!"

Facing Guan Hai was naturally not to be outdone and looked at Zhou Cang fiercely.

"Alright, you two rivals, stop arguing."

"We will not take the initiative to attack for now, just wait for them to kill their way here."

Su Li shook his head and was not in a hurry to defeat the enemy.

The one who should be in a hurry is Zhang Niujiao, after all, they just pulled out the Heishan Army's stronghold in Changshan Commandery.

They want it even more than they do, to capture Zhending County and use it as a resource supply point.

After Zhang Niujiao arrived at the city walls, he began to send people to build siege weapons.

Actually, it wasn't building, just reassembling the old siege weapons.

Soon the Heishan Army assembled a batch of scaling ladders and siege chariots, and couldn't wait to start the siege.

"Break the city, leave no one alive!"

Zhang Niujiao personally supervised the battle, and the dense Heishan Army was like a black cloud, fiercely attacking Zhending County!
