Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Li Ru looked at everyone with a sly look, and then said: "In my opinion, it is better to let Xiaowei Jia go. Captain Jia has always been brave and resourceful, and he will definitely be qualified for this battle."

Jia Rong didn't understand why Li Ru was still targeting him. He was already very serious and careful in his work.

Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's analysis, even claimed it was true, and ordered: "Zhiyuan, immediately lead your troops to fight against the Yellow Turban, there must be no mistakes, this battle can only be won and not defeated."

Jia Rong bowed his hands to Dong Zhuo and said, "Don't worry, General, the humble post will be completed."

Seeing the development of the situation, Guo Si became anxious. He originally thought that Dong Zhuo would send his capable general Hua Xiong in the first battle. Unexpectedly, Li Ru proposed such an idea to Dong Zhuo. Guo Si immediately stepped forward to salute Dong Zhuo and said: : "General Qi, I would like to fight against the Yellow Turbans together with Captain Jia; Lieutenant Jia's soldiers are basically infantry, and soldiers of the humble class are basically cavalry. I think that by cooperating with Captain Jia, we will be able to defeat the Yellow Turbans in one fell swoop."

After Dong Zhuo listened to Guo Bang's analysis, he thought that there were more than ten thousand Yellow Turban soldiers ahead, and it was not appropriate to send Jia Rong a whole force, so he agreed to Guo Bang's request.

Therefore, the task of going to face the Yellow Turban was completed by Jia Rong and Guo Bang together.

After all the generals returned to their ranks, Dong Zhuo showed a puzzled expression and said to Li Ru behind him: "Son-in-law, why did you send Jia Rong there? I originally planned to let Hua Xiong go, Hua Xiong is brave , will be able to defeat the Yellow Turban soldiers in front in one fell swoop."

Li Ru replied respectfully: "My lord, the yellow scarves in front are nothing to worry about. I mainly test whether Jia Rong is loyal to the lord or not.

Dong Zhuo suddenly said: "So that's the case, but Jia Rong has always done things seriously in the army, there is nothing wrong with it."

"It's just doing things seriously, and there's nothing wrong with it. This Jia Rong is not easy." Li Ru said in a cold tone.

Dong Zhuo still didn't understand Li Ru's meaning, but he didn't get to the bottom of it. He was very relieved of this son-in-law, and basically all the military affairs in the army were handled by him; credit.

After Jia Rong returned to the team, he immediately sent all the sentries to the place where the Yellow Turban soldiers were located ten miles away to inquire about the specific situation.

Then he and Guo Bang led more than 2000 cavalry and more than [-] infantry to the Yellow Turban soldiers ten miles away. Along the way, sentries kept coming back to report information about the Yellow Turban soldiers ahead.

It is initially learned that there are more than 1000 Yellow Turban soldiers in front, some of them are old and weak women and children, and some are ordinary people holding farm tools for farming. The specific number of elite soldiers is unknown.

Jia Rong rode his horse and came to Guo Bang's side to discuss how to proceed in the next battle. Guo Bang's sentry had also notified the military situation ahead, and Guo Bang learned most of the situation of the Yellow Turban soldiers ahead.

After research by Jia Rong and Guo Si, they decided to use the cavalry to charge and kill, and the infantry would go up to fight after the cavalry rushed into the Yellow Turban soldiers' positions, that is, the infantry was responsible for cleaning the battlefield, and the cavalry was the main force.

After careful consideration, Jia Rong said: "Brother, why don't you divide the cavalry into two parts, and you and my brother will each lead a part of the troops to attack the Yellow Turban soldiers' positions, so as to give the Yellow Turban soldiers the illusion that our army is powerful, and it will be easier to disrupt their positions. .”

Since it was the first time to fight the Yellow Turban soldiers, I didn’t know the specific strength of the Yellow Turban soldiers. This was also Jia Rong’s first time fighting with cavalry, so Jia Rong seriously discussed with Guo Si how to defeat more than 1 Yellow Turban soldiers. After all, his own side The two forces add up to less than 5000 people.

After listening to Jia Rong's analysis, Guo Si nodded and said: "Second brother's words are reasonable, I command a total of 2000 cavalry, and I share [-] cavalry with my second brother. I am responsible for attacking the Yellow Turban soldiers' position head-on, and you attack from the side. "

Jia Rong knew that this was Guo Bang taking care of him. If he attacked the position of the Yellow Turban soldiers head-on, he would definitely encounter great resistance. After Guo Bang distributed the cavalry to 1000 of his own, the number of cavalry was not as large as the cavalry he commanded.

"Brother, this time I will attack from the front. I have studied with my brother for so long. I want to test the results of what I have learned, which will also help me improve in the future." Jia Rong declined in another way.

Seemingly seeing Jia Rong's careful thinking, Guo Bang laughed and said, "In this case, I will follow my second brother's opinion, but you must pay attention to your own safety when rushing on the battlefield."

Jia Rong nodded in agreement.

At a distance of ten miles, the cavalry arrived in the blink of an eye.

When approaching the camp of the Yellow Turban soldiers, Jia Rong found that the Yellow Turban soldiers were ready for battle. It seems that there are also capable people among the Yellow Turban soldiers.

His first task was to attack the Yellow Turban positions. Jia Rong ordered [-] cavalry to attack the Yellow Turban soldiers in a roundabout way; Destruction is the best way to disrupt the enemy's position.

The Qiang cavalry of the Jiarong tribe still maintained their previous habits. When they were about 150 steps away from the Yellow Turban soldiers' position, they shot at the Yellow Turban soldiers with bows and arrows.

The yellow scarf soldiers were all dressed in coarse cloth and had no armor to cover their bodies. Wherever arrows rained down, the soldiers fell to the ground as if they were cutting wheat.

Jia Rong has no strict requirements on the weapons used by his cavalry on the battlefield, as long as he uses them conveniently.

The frontal collision between the two armies began. The cavalry led by Jia Rong took out all kinds of weapons. appear in the team.

However, the cavalry of Guo Si's department used their long spears exclusively, leaping on their horses and holding their spears, and charged at the yellow scarf soldiers.

Jia Rong rode on a high-speed galloping horse, holding a long knife in his hand, cut a Yellow Turban soldier in two with one knife, and then rushed to the depths of the Yellow Turban soldier's position. Seeing the bravery of the master, the cavalry behind Jia Rong shouted , Cut off the weapon in his hand to the body of the Yellow Turban soldier.

The Yellow Turban soldiers suffered countless casualties under the charge and trample of the cavalry.

How did the Yellow Turban soldiers go through such battles? In previous battles, their own army came to the county towns and county towns. There was no need to attack the city at all. The county magistrates and county guards abandoned the city and fled. Depart for the next city.

The cavalry led by Jia Rong did not encounter much resistance, so they detoured the position of the Yellow Turban soldiers. Although there were some elite soldiers among the Yellow Turban soldiers, they were in the minority after all, and they could not withstand the attack of more than a thousand cavalry.

Seeing that under the impact of the cavalry led by him, the yellow turban soldiers were killed and injured countless; the yellow turban soldiers watched their companions fall one by one under the charge of the cavalry, and the yellow turban soldiers were all scared, so that when they saw the cavalry coming, they all avoided it; Jia Rong sighed in his heart, what kind of soldiers are these? They are obviously a group of rebellious people with farm tools on their shoulders, and they led the cavalry to charge, and they did not see that they had a general to deploy soldiers.

Although Jia Rong couldn't bear to raise the butcher's knife to them, but now they are rebels, this is the battlefield, and the Yellow Turban soldiers are the enemy, all he has to do is to destroy the enemy, there is no sympathy or dissympathy; The habit reminds Jia Rong all the time: "Don't show any kindness to the enemy, otherwise you will only be injured."

Seeing that the enemy was powerful, the Yellow Turban soldiers fled in all directions.

At this time, a thousand cavalry led by Guo Si came to kill, together with Jia Rongbing and a group of yellow turban soldiers who were fleeing; The first time is to divide the encirclement station method, which is to break up the enemies and kill them one by one.

After chasing and killing the Yellow Turban soldiers for more than ten li, Jia Rong and Guo Si led the cavalry back.

At this time, the infantry who arrived later were responsible for cleaning the battlefield, and the captured yellow turban soldiers were gathered together.

Jia Rong immediately sent troops to inform Dong Zhuo that all the Yellow Turban soldiers in front had been wiped out.

In this battle, more than 4000 Yellow Turban soldiers were killed, and more than 200 were captured. About [-] Yellow Turban soldiers escaped, but their own losses were very small. The cavalry lost about [-] people, and the infantry suffered no casualties.

Half an hour later, Dong Zhuo, who got the news, led more than a hundred cavalry to arrive in person, and was very happy to hear Jia Rong's report of the results of the battle.

He won the first battle with very little loss, and if he reported it to Emperor Han, he would definitely get a lot of rewards, so Dong Zhuo seemed very excited.

Dong Zhuo kindly pulled Jia Rong and Guo Si and said: "You two have made great contributions to defeating the Yellow Turban soldiers this time. I will definitely report to the Holy Majesty and ask for your credit."

Jia Rong and Guo Si hurriedly thanked them.

The reason why the victory was so smooth this time is because the yellow turban soldiers were wandering behind the yellow turban army, picking up some cheap ones. Most of them were ordinary people, and there were not a few old and weak soldiers. There were only more than 1000 yellow turban soldiers who were really capable of fighting. Jia Rong and Guo Si defeated the Yellow Turban soldiers with ease. Even before the original plan could be implemented, the Yellow Turban soldiers began to flee.

After clearing the battlefield, Li Ru arrived with a large army. Hearing the results reported by Jia Rong and Guo Si, Li Ru pondered for a while; according to the news, the Yellow Turban rebels attacked the city and plundered land all the way, how could it be so unbearable? The reason why I said that the yellow turban soldiers were unbearable was just to reassure Dong Zhuo, but I didn't expect that the yellow turban soldiers were really bad.

When Jia Rong told Li Ru the specific situation of the battlefield, Li Ru was stunned.

Dong Zhuo reluctantly took out two hundred war horses and rewarded Jia Rong and Guo Si to show their achievements, but in fact it was also to win over their subordinates.

What Jia Rong lacks now is horses, so he is naturally very happy; there are still many pre-Qiang cavalry in his team, who can fight when they mount a horse, so there is no need to worry about the source of cavalry.
