I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 355: The Han cavalry sweeps the battlefield, Su Yao's reputation shakes the hearts of the troops

"what?"

"That's it?"

"What kind of rubbish is this?"

During the charge, Su Yao curled his lips.

Escape before fighting!
Faced with Su Yao who was leading the way and coming like a whirlwind, some timid warriors actually dropped their weapons and ran away, howling.

The sudden enemy charge and the Wuhuan people's defeat quickly escalated the chaos in the camp.

In addition to the surprise attack, the bigger reason for their collapse was the problem of personnel composition.

It can be said that these people at the outermost edge of the rear were all soldiers selected by Qiu Liju who had not yet recovered their morale from the great defeat in Jizhou.

They were dispersed in the outer circle, and on weekdays they only did some work such as waving flags and shouting to fill the gaps.

I never thought that after running all the way from south to north, I would meet this brave and powerful General Su on the battlefield right at my doorstep.

The unbearable memories of the past came to their minds, and Su Yao’s sudden attack was like a sharp knife piercing their soft spots.

The Wuhuan soldiers, who were originally chatting lazily and planning to continue slacking off after dinner, were caught off guard and their formation was thrown into disarray.
Su Yao led the Red Cloud Knights of the Du Liao New Army into the camp as if they were in an empty space, and the Wuhuan people's resistance quickly collapsed.

"Come on!"

"Kill all these trash!"

In the camp, wherever Su Yao went, the Wuhuan soldiers were defeated and the scene was in chaos.

Under this sudden attack, the first line of defense of the Wuhuan camp collapsed in an instant before it could be organized.

With Su Yao taking the lead, Lu Bu, Guan, Zhang, Zhao Dian and other generals followed closely behind. Su Yao and the Liao army's strongest forces formed a sharp sword.

Their sudden attack was like a flash of lightning, instantly penetrating the bandits.

Su Yao was seen waving a lance, and the long lance blade drew out red trails. The Wuhuan soldiers fell down with screams, and no one could match him.

Lu Bu beside him was holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji, like a god of war descending to earth, moving forward fearlessly. Wherever the tip of the halberd touched, the Wuhuan bandits fell to the ground and blood splattered every five steps.

Immediately afterwards, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei protected the two men's outer flanks, waving their Green Dragon Crescent Blade and Zhangba Snake Spear in the cold wind, reaping lives one after another.

The last ones came with excited faces, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei. One of them held a silver spear, and the other held two large iron halberds. Following the wave of the crowd's charge, they also launched a fierce attack without showing any weakness.

This scene frightened the Wuhuan soldiers who were watching from a distance and preparing for battle, and they fled in all directions.

"General Su is mighty!"

"Kill all these Wuhuan bastards!"

The morale of the Han knights was high, their cheers shook the sky, and every time they fought they were full of the belief that they would win.

In the face of this unstoppable momentum, the resistance of the Wuhuan people was so pale and powerless.

Especially that Zhuoluochuo.

This young warrior, who was in the rear and was trusted by Qiu Liju, was swept into the terrifying wave and disappeared without even a splash.

"Quick, quick, inform the king!"

In the chaos, some Wuhuan soldiers ran desperately deep into the camp, trying to find Qiuliju and inform him of the sudden enemy attack.

However, Qiuliju was enjoying a sweet dream in the tent at this time, and was unaware of the chaos in the camp. It was not until the rapid drumbeats and the exclamations of the soldiers awakened him that Qiuliju suddenly woke up from his dream and his face changed drastically.

Nothing like that happened.

"The Han army is really coming."

Earlier, Qiu Liju was quietly gathering and mobilizing his elite personal soldiers.

The scouts who had not returned all night made Qiuliju more alert. He arranged for Tadun to lead the vanguard and keep an eye on the movements in the city, while summoning the central army. While taking precautions against danger, he was also prepared to go to Gouzi City to find out what was going on.

Now, he didn't expect that the Han army would arrive soon after he started to gather.

So, in front of the central army tent of the Wuhuan camp, Qiu Liju, wearing armor and holding a long sword, scanned the hastily assembled warriors in front of him with a sharp gaze and shouted loudly:
"Hurry up, move!" "These ignorant men actually dared to launch a sneak attack on us!"

"Now is the time to tell them who is the true master of Liaoxi. Take courage and use our horses and swords to beat them to pieces!"

Under Qiuliju's mobilization, 2,000 elite soldiers from his own tribe, wearing the best equipment of the tribe, armed with bows and spears, were ready for battle.

Encouraged by the king, these people shouted and waved their weapons, ordering the fleeing soldiers to move away from both sides, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.

However, this scene calmed the frightened soldiers down a little.

Everybody knows.

These soldiers standing in the center of the army are King Qiuliju’s personal soldiers. They are the capital for him to be king and they are his most trusted ones.

They ate the best meat, drank the most mellow wine, and in the subsequent battles that swept across You and Ji, their equipment was constantly upgraded. About one-third of them wore Han armor of varying degrees.

These 2,000 elite soldiers are definitely the most loyal and best-equipped warriors under King Qiuliju.

Even in the Battle of the Plains, he never sent out troops.

It can be said that these 2,000 elite soldiers are completely different from the other tribesmen who not only have no armor but also have to provide their own weapons.

Sha Loufeng, who had run away at the first opportunity, felt his pounding heart calmed down a lot when he saw these mighty elite soldiers.

There is salvation, there is salvation.

"There are only more than 300 riders?" Qiu Liju frowned.

Just as the defeated soldiers were slightly encouraged, Qiu Liju also recovered from his initial surprise.

Qiu Liju stood in front of the central army tent, looking at the red-robed knights galloping in the distance, his heart full of doubts.

He originally thought that a large force of the Han army would attack, but he did not expect that the other side had only more than 300 cavalrymen, which made him feel a little incredible.

There were only 300-odd cavalrymen in the vanguard, yet they dared to launch a sneak attack on their camp of more than 20,000 people!

"Did the Han army really only send such a small number of people to rescue Gongsun Zan?"

With such a small number of people, he might not even need to send out his elite personal soldiers:
"Beat the drums, move the central army out, intercept and surround them."

After giving the order, Qiu Liju muttered to himself, frowning, and said:
“Even if you are the General Su from Pingyuan City, you are too arrogant with such a small number of people.”

"Too reckless!"

Gongsun Zan pressed the wall bricks and said in a low voice:

"This champion is really playing with fire!"

On the Guanzi City, Gongsun Zan arrived at the city wall as soon as the guards reported that there was a change in the enemy camp.

He was especially surprised when he heard that the reinforcements were carrying a large flag with the word "Su" on it from afar.

Champion Hou Suyao, the young man who made him jealous and hateful.

If this man had not defeated the rebels so quickly at the gates of Plains, he would have had more opportunities to make meritorious contributions.

Moreover, once the allied forces of the princes surrounded him and he had sealed his trap, there would not be so many Wuhuan bandits escaping back to the outside of the Great Wall. He would not chase them all the way and be ambushed, and then be trapped here in a cowardly manner.

However, it was precisely for this reason that Gongsun Zan still trusted the ability of this champion marquis.

If he were not a person of real talent and hard work, how could he have achieved such great achievements?
Therefore, when Gongsun Zan heard that Su Yao was coming, he was ready to send his soldiers out of the city to attack.
"Why are there only so few people?!"

“It’s crazy!”

"Does he want his life?"

"Quick, get ready to respond!"

Right in front of Gongsun Zan, more than 300 Han cavalrymen broke through the first line of defense of the outer circle's miscellaneous soldiers and rushed towards the Wuhuan central army that was ready for battle. The shouts of killing from both sides shook the sky.
