"General Zhao, please send more spies out to investigate this matter, so as not to miss any clues."

Zhao Cuo paused for a moment and then said to Zhao Yuanqing.

He looked heavy, knowing that the war had already begun at this moment, and the Demon Court's army might attack at any time.

He also knew about the demon cavalry through various information files, but his constant exploration made him even more uneasy.

"Yes! According to the words of the general, our army should no longer advance rashly at this time. If we want to temporarily settle down, which city should we choose?"

Wu Chongxing was also there. He calmly took out the map from his sleeve and circled their location unhurriedly.

"We are already close to Rufu City at this time. If we want to camp in the city, this is the only place we can do it."

General Wu said cautiously.

"Um……"

Mr. Zhao took the drawing in his hand, lowered his head and looked at it carefully, with a thoughtful look on his face.

The army is only ten miles away from Rufu City at this time, and the monsters may come to kill them at any time, so they should defend the city as soon as possible.

There was no need to panic when the battle was approaching. General Zhao closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and quickly made a decision in his heart.

"It is exactly what Wu Dutong said. We have not yet figured out the actual strength of the enemy's troops and cannot rush into confrontation with them."

Zhao Cuo said without hesitation.

We still don’t know what kind of tactics the demon clan will use to deal with him.

As the saying goes, know yourself and the enemy and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. You should not directly engage in head-on combat before you know the enemy's methods clearly.

"We can reach Rufu City by marching for about two hours."

Zhao Yuanqing still said hesitantly.

Of course, what they want to capture is not a small town.

Rufu City is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it is certainly a good stronghold, but will the officials in the city surrender the city?

"After our army defeated the rebels in Yannan Prefecture, no one dared to resist wherever they went. But it was different when we arrived in Southern Zhili."

Wu Chongxing also nodded and said. What is Zhili? A land directly controlled by the capital!

The King of Han, who occupied the capital, had control over both northern and southern Zhili.

It's really not an easy task for them to capture Rufu City.

"The concerns of the two generals are not unreasonable."

Mr. Zhao nodded lightly.

This is also what he is worried about.

But now there is no better way.

"Let's rush to Rufu City first and then discuss it. It will take at least two days for the demon army to reach the place where Nanzhili and Yannan Mansion meet."

General Zhao pondered deeply. He believed that it was time to control all the surrounding cities to ensure an endless supply of food and grass.

However, in terms of time, it is risky to achieve this goal, but it is worth trying.

With 300,000 available troops, he can still accomplish great things.

"Give me the order."

Zhao Cuo exhaled and said.

"The main force of the army is approaching Rufu City. Wang Cheng and other generals will each lead 10,000 troops and artillery. If they fail to persuade them to surrender, they will just open fire!"

After he tried his best to arrange all the things he had considered, he got on his horse again and headed towards Rufu City with the army.

"We are going to use force this time."

The young father-in-law already had a guess in his mind.

The situation was as he expected. When the Confederate army arrived at Rufu City, they were greeted by a dense rain of arrows.

Having nothing to say, he directly ordered the army to besiege the city, and then pushed more than twenty artillery pieces to the bottom of the city and began to attack the city.

"Rufu City is difficult to capture, but the officials in the surrounding small cities are not very willing to resist. After capturing it in one piece, they formed an encirclement."

General Zhao did not directly command the siege, but left the matter to Wu Chongxing, while he himself supervised the battle from the rear.

Facing a fortified city like Fu City, with twenty cannons firing from morning to night, it would probably take two or three days to break through the city.

The Demon Court will not give him time, so he must occupy this city tonight, otherwise he will have to find another way.

"You ask the surrender team to shout into the city!"

Zhao Cuo also knew that this time the soft guy was really in trouble.

"Open the city gate within an hour! If not, all those who participated in the resistance in the city will be punished for treason, and all their property will be confiscated, the Yi clan!"

Just the threat is not enough, they are actually the dominant party now, and someone will definitely surrender under the heavy reward.

"Whoever opens the city gate will not only be innocent, but will also be rewarded with a hundred acres of land and be granted a title!"

The effect of this move is immediate.

After a while, the young prince discovered that the towers of Rufu City seemed to be in chaos, and the noise could be faintly heard even under the roar of artillery.

Waiting, in fact, it seemed that there was no need to wait too long when things got to this point. After a while, several soldiers opened the door with the heads of the city guards.

"The army entered the city in batches, taking control of everything in the city first and not allowing any resistance to appear again."

Mr. Zhao gave the order in a tone that could not be refused.

The Confederate army finally advanced into Rufu City. He did not hesitate and directly issued orders to radiate to the surrounding areas.

He has not yet made an accurate judgment on how the monsters will attack, but as long as the main force is in the city, they will not be hurt.

"The secret guards mainly investigate secrets from all parties. However, they do not have a strong dominance in military affairs. They still have to rely on the army to continuously send spies..."

At night, Zhao Cuo was sitting in the lobby of a garden in Rufu City, looking down at the map on the table.

He knew that it was normal for the monster clan to come and kill them tomorrow, and what he had to do now was not to meet the enemy, but to figure out the enemy's fighting style.

The power of the demon cavalry shocked the world. He did not dare to be careless in the slightest. If he was not careful, he would lose everything he had.

"Facing the Demon Court, artillery seems to be of no use. It is impossible for them to fight a city defense battle."

The young master got up and walked around in the hall.

The characteristic of cavalry is their super mobility.

If Yaoting hits him and runs away, or breaks into his rear and cuts off the food channel, the situation will instantly become worse.

"We still need to call back some of our troops to defend the rear and ensure that no one robs us. Once military supplies are exhausted, we have no choice but to withdraw our troops."

General Zhao took a deep breath and felt invisible pressure crushing him. After all, this time he was facing an enemy he had never fought before.

At this time, he inexplicably thought of Boluan Pinellia...
