Horse on the World

Chapter 789 Cavalry Showdown
Seeing everyone's dumbfounded expressions, Guo Quan squinted his eyes and glanced at them, "Why, do you have any different opinions?"

Everyone's faces were brilliant, but most of them were expressions of disapproval.Especially Wang Zhen, who captured Yazikou, was even more dissatisfied. Guo Quan had deprived him of most of the credit, and gave it to Zeng Chong, who had lost his army and lost his general.

Guo Quan snorted, "I know your virtues. Why, you can't give up such a small contribution. Where is the usual brotherhood? If you report the truth this time, Zeng Chong will have to peel off his skin even if he is not dead. Usually You eat and drink, go to restaurants and go to brothels, except for Lao Tzu's pocket, you used to take the big money, and now you have to pay for something, are you so reluctant? A bunch of white-eyed wolves, I have misjudged you.

The words made everyone laugh, Wang Zhen wiped his beard, and said: "Well, it's just a small matter, it's a ball, the general can say whatever he wants, anyway, following the general, there will be some credits in the future, right?"

Now that the parties concerned have opened their mouths, and everyone else has nothing to say, the matter is considered settled.Only Zeng stood up gratefully, cupped his fists and bowed together, "Thank you General Guo, thank you General Wang, thank you all colleagues, this friendship has been remembered, after this battle is over, everyone will go to restaurants and brothels in the future. Brother, I paid for the expenses."

Everyone burst into laughter, "Old Zeng, you said this, you will not be allowed to renege on debts in the future, we are all witnesses."

"I will never deny it. Compared with the friendship my brothers have for me, what is this little money?"

Guo Quan said with a smile: "Zeng Chong, you lost a lot this time. There are only 5000 people left. How will you fight in the future? Let's do it. I will start from the first, second and second." My central army will each draw 500 people for you to make up for it, at least to improve your strength a bit. In addition, if your low-level officers are not good enough, I will also make up for you. If the next battle is like this one, then You know the consequences."

"Thank you, General, for your kindness!" Zeng Chong was overjoyed.

Everyone was very happy after drinking the wine, and when all the generals dispersed, only the middle officer Ji Tong was left in the field.Looking at the thoughtful Guo Quan, Ji Tong was puzzled and said: "General Guo, just take this opportunity to take down Zeng Chong and completely wash out the power of Zeng's family. Why did you give him such a big benefit instead?"

Guo Quan smiled and looked at Jitong: "Old Ji, where did Tian Xinyu go?" He pointed in the direction of the tea shop with his finger, "He went there, and Lu Fengchun will suffer another big loss. Next, let's go in the basket. There is another war of words in front of the mountain, hehe, I gave Zeng Chong this credit, but I pushed Zeng Chong's battle back for a day, and when the time comes, what's the matter? Lao Tzu Fengli camp killed and injured thousands of people Take the duck mouth, and the death is still Zeng's elite, why do you, Lu Fengchun, say that I let Tian Xinyu's department go there? It is a certain fact that Zeng Chong died and injured thousands of people."

Ji Tong suddenly realized, "The general is here for this."

"Of course, Zeng Chong suffered a big loss this time. Let's take the opportunity to mix sand in it. Fifteen hundred of our direct descendants went over and slowly swallowed his third wing completely. Zeng Chong made a straw bag to deal with it. Very well, wouldn't it be a pity not to use such a good shield?"

When Ji Tong heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "What the general said is absolutely true. After all, Zeng Yifan will still believe that their Zeng clan has more people."

"The whole army rested in Yazikou for two days, and then marched towards Xiabaoping!"

"General, since Lu Fengchun will suffer at the tea shop, if we move forward, we will completely expose the flank to the Dingzhou army. At that time, if they fight, we will suffer. If they don't fight, wouldn't it be suspicious? "

"Fuck, when the time comes, we will retreat back in embarrassment, and then go and scold Lu Fengchun for being a piece of shit, and almost get my Feng Liying stabbed in the ass. If I didn't run fast when I saw the opportunity, I wouldn't be able to come back Yes. Of course, the more fierce the verbal war, the better, and it’s better not to be able to tell who the hell is." Guo Quan said with a grin.

"High, it's really high!" Jitong gave a thumbs up.Heartfelt praise.

Guo Quan rolled his eyes.

Three days later, news of Yazikou's great victory spread back to Zeng Yifan's army and Lu Fengchun's garrison at Chadianzi. The order for the two offensives was also sent to Lu Fengchun's army.

In the past three days, small-scale cavalry confrontations have been launched between Lu Fengchun's troops and Lu Dabing from time to time. There are more and more signs that the main force of Lu Dabing is concentrated in the Kangzhuang, Xiaoerhe and Liulinzi areas. In that direction, the cavalry The sentries couldn't infiltrate at all, and the sentries sent out in this area never returned.

"It seems that Lu Dabing is preparing to start a decisive battle with our army in this area." Lu Fengchun stared at the map, looked at the terrain in this area, and frowned. Why did the opponent choose this area for a decisive battle?

"Daddy, there is nothing to hesitate. Anyway, Lu Dabing only has [-] cavalry in his hands. We have the absolute advantage in numbers. No matter where he fights, this cannot be changed. Moreover, Guo Quan We have captured the Yazikou, if we continue to hesitate, it is very likely that Lu Dabing will lead his troops back to Xiabaoping to prevent the flanks from being attacked by Guo Quan. , we can’t get anything, and it’s not easy to explain to King Ning in Lanshan.”

Lu Fengchun nodded, "What you said makes sense, but Lu Dabing is a hard nut to chew on. Zhao Ting, you lead the main force of our troops to attack the Xiaoer River area in Liulinzi, hoping to start a decisive battle with Lu Dabing, and I, Then lead [-] cavalry to turn around from the side. The premise is that you can withstand the opponent's attack for at least one day. As long as you can do this, when the opponent is exhausted, I will be able to defeat the opponent with a new force."

"Dad, don't worry!" Lu Zhaoting was eager to try, "Don't say a day, even if it is a long time, I can withstand it. Lu Dabing is our life and death enemy, this time he will definitely come back."

On the trail leading from Yazikou to Chadianzi, Tian Xinyu led his troops to the battlefields around Xiaoerhe and Liulinzi. This time, because they were fighting against a brigade of cavalry, the troops had to carry a lot of luggage, such as chariots and large shields. , Scorpion cannon and other weapons must be carried. The Dingzhou infantry has accumulated rich experience in fighting against the cavalry of the brigade. In addition to strict discipline, the spirit of sacrifice, necessary protective equipment and long-range weapon strikes It is also a necessary item, but it is a pity that there are only a few Baifa crossbows in hand, and it is not easy to carry, otherwise it will be more handy to fight.

With these weapons, the speed of marching was inevitably reduced, and he had to avoid the eyes and ears of the opponent, and went out day and night. Tian Xinyu had already sent the wounded soldiers to Xiabaoping in advance, and now he had insufficient elite soldiers. Four thousand, must cut in at the node of the battle situation, in order to defeat Lu Fengchun's troops in one fell swoop.Make sure that the pre-battle goals can be achieved.

When Tian Xinyu was one day away from the Xiaoer River, the battle between Lu Dabing and Lu Zhaoting had already begun. Lu Zhaoting had 1000 cavalry, and after Lu Dabing left a reserve of 4000 men, he sent the remaining [-] cavalry. All of them were thrown into the battlefield, and nearly ten thousand cavalry from both sides confronted each other on the battlefield tens of miles around Xiaoerhe, Kangzhuang, and Liulinzi.

The combat space required by cavalry is much higher than that of infantry. Cavalry needs distance to increase the speed of sprinting. Each knight needs at least a few meters of space. The shorter the distance between knights, the more it can reflect a cavalry team basic qualities.

The scale of nearly [-] cavalry fighting is extremely shocking and spectacular visually.The short silence before the battle was suffocating. The horse snorted and pawed restlessly, pulling apart the hoarfrost grass. The knight's breath gathered together to form pieces Misty.

The battlefield was chosen by Lu Dabing. At this time, the red cavalry was standing silently on a gentle slope. When they launched a sprint later, they would have a shorter time than the opponent to pull up to the fastest speed. Lirata was very excited. They hadn't experienced such a big scene for a long time.

"Tuotuo, let's have another match today, how about seeing who kills the most dogs?" Lalilata squinted at Tuotuo.

Tuotuo grinned, "Okay, if you lose again this time, why don't you pester Zhong Jin again?"

"Maybe you lose!" Lari Rata was furious.

"That's the deal!" Tutuo laughed loudly, "Larry, you're doomed."

The two were bickering, when the low-pitched horns sounded suddenly from the camps of both sides, and the sound of drums beating densely was like rain hitting plantains. The knights on both sides let out a roar almost at the same time, mobilized their horses, and charged forward.

Tuotuo and Larilata clamped their horses and moved forward at the same time, "The race has begun." Larilata laughed.

The war horse first walked forward in small steps, and then trotted, gradually getting faster and faster. By the time the red cavalry galloped down the gentle slope, the horse's speed had been fully pulled up.

Arrows were raining down in the air, and both sides were elite cavalry. Horse racing and archery were not difficult for both sides, the difference was only in how many rounds they could shoot.

Lalilata clasped three arrows in his hand, and with the three arrows in unison, he stared at his target. With a sound of collapse, the arrows flew out of the string, and the target fell off the horse in response, "Three, hahaha!"

Tuotuo smiled coldly, his bow was like a thunderbolt, he couldn't shoot three arrows at once like Lari Rata, but his firing rate was faster, and he fired three arrows in a row with three beeps, "It's not worse than you!"

After two or three rounds of arrows, both sides drew their bows and drew their swords almost at the same time, and the two torrents collided fiercely.

"Lu Fengchun didn't come!" Looking at the battlefield in front of him, Lu Dabing raised his eyebrows. "He wanted to flank us and send scout horses to see which way they were going. Don't bump into Tian Xinyu."

"Yes!" A cavalryman responded.

Tens of thousands of war horses mingled together, the horses neighed, screamed, and the sound of the clash of knives and guns resounded through the sky. From time to time, war horses that had lost their owners came out of the battlefield and wandered alone in a corner of the battlefield.

"This is the last bit of Lu's capital!" Lu Dabing looked at the battlefield, his side had already gained advantages in several directions, and he couldn't help but smile, "If you beat them, the Lu family in Weizhou will be a powerful man from the mainland." removed from it.”
