I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 303
As for war horses, only soldiers who have fought against Xixia can understand its role, and they will really be rare.

Gao Jingxian belonged to people who did not have this kind of experience. Although he was born as a general, he had never participated in the battle against Xia or Liao.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, nor was it protected by his family, but that he had already entered the guard camp before he had the opportunity to join the battle.

It is rare for the generals to join the war as pure soldiers without a position, and they are not even at the level of the commander... After all, they are all cannon fodder.

The Zhe family and the Zhong family are the exceptions...their two families have been stationed at the border for generations, and their sons' positions are all earned by military merit.

Therefore, on the issue of how to deal with the war horse, the three of them disagreed...

"Shouweng and Zundao, I know how the two of you think about war horses, but the posthouse war horses are not the war horses of the imperial court, they are all belongings of western thieves, and the war horses are not a bet."

"Since it is designated as a raid and harassment war, war horses can also be used. Besides, maybe the frightened war horse ran out, and it is possible for me to wait for the soldiers of the guard battalion to gather and become ours."

In Gao Jingxian's mind, he was thinking about the decision of the Xixia people to search on horseback. Once the Xixia warriors searched on horseback, it would save energy to a great extent... In this way, the goal of total annihilation would be very uncertain.

As for losing, I really didn't think about it.

What Gao Jingxian said is the truth.It's one thing to love horses, it's another to keep them for the enemy...

Just after midnight, all the soldiers of the guard battalion gathered at the stables... The Western Xia warriors were tired all day, and they arranged for a rotation of guards. It is estimated that they are the most sleepy at this time.

"Two horses per person, it's best to startle a hundred war horses at the same time..."

"Jingxian, should we drive out a few war horses first, let the whole posthouse be in chaos first, let the western thieves get up, and then..."

This is a good idea!

In the middle of the night, even a small sound can be heard far away, let alone in the post house.

When four or five war horses neighed and then galloped quickly, the Xixia warrior was awakened...

No matter how deeply he slept, there was still a guard on duty, so the entire post house was filled with noise.

"It's done! Action!"

The soldiers of the guard battalion were still in the stables, each of them was next to the horse's buttocks, with military thorns in their hands...

After shouting for action, the military thorns in everyone's hands stabbed at the flatter's butt... This is not flattering, it's a stab.

Then, the hissing that made the cavalry palpitate and overwhelmed the noise in the front yard sounded in an instant... This sound was no longer limited to the posthouse.

"They're in the stables..."

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Gather to the stables..."

The Xixia warriors also regarded fighting as a battle. Although they were all asleep, they were all lying down with their clothes on, and even their weapons were at hand.

When the first war horse neighed, everyone was already alert, and then heard so many war horses neighing... No need to ask, this is the Song army targeting the war horses.

First the grain and grass, then the war horses, if the Song army succeeds in both of these, the fight will be completely lost.

Therefore, the fifty Xixia warriors gathered in the direction of the stables the moment they heard the neighing of the war horses without any orders at all...

It's a pity that these are a group of frightened war horses, they are no longer in their daily well-trained state, they are war horses that have been stabbed in the buttocks by the army...

I don't know what it would be like when all the horses were silent, but the sound of these two hundred frightened war horses running wildly after being stimulated by the sting, and in the space of the streets of the post house... It's really amazing!
The neighing and galloping sounds of war horses were so loud that even the entire western district of Bianliang Outer City was awakened by the sound of horseshoes...

"This is……"

Gao Yi stood up trembling, holding on to the wall of the post house, he could feel the tremor.

He can go back to his home to rest, but the posthouse is surrounded by soldiers from both sides, and he is a representative of the imperial court. The official envoy of Xixia can sleep in the open, so he has to stay here... three days, I didn't expect That's it for the first night.

"What's going on here?"

"Hahahaha... High Envoy, my Daxia warrior is a warrior on horseback, this is the way it should be! Let's see where you are going to escape..."

When Wu Zong heard the first neighing of the war horse, he got up to look for Gao Yi.

He thought that this was the time for their Xixia warriors to take the right path...

Cavalry!If this is really a Xixia warrior chasing him on horseback, even the soldiers of the guard battalion can't run away from the horse!

Gao Yi trembled even more, not because he was afraid of the sound of horseshoes, but because he was thinking about the follow-up of this matter...

The guard battalion, that is His Royal Highness's army, if it is all lost here, his accompanist... The key is, there are generals from his Gao family in it!

It's over!It's really over!
It was dark, and Gao Yi's pale face could not be seen, but his legs and feet were obviously moving non-stop.

Wu Zong of Xixia had already turned around and moved to the gate of the post house, wanting to see the scene of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty being chased by the warriors of Xixia for the first time... But Gao Yi slowed down a few times before he could barely move his legs.

All the soldiers surrounding the posthouse woke up, listening to the sounds inside the posthouse wall, and did not leave their posts...

The gate of the post house is always open... so that the soldiers who abstained from the army can come out at any time.

"This is……?"

Gao Yi asked again.He hadn't reached the gate yet, but he found that Wu Zong who was earlier than him quickly avoided...

"Langzhong, the horse is startled! Get out of the way!"

There were some soldiers who were not scared and stupid, and dragged Gao Yi to hide aside...

Luckily there were only two.

The old horse knows the way, but it is a pity that the post house is not the environment these war horses are familiar with. In the gap between the row upon row of houses, and it is late at night, when the war horse is stabbed, it is impossible to find the exact way.

The two horses that ran out were just two of the four or five horses that came out for the first time, and they were disturbed purely by accident.

I have to admire the Xixia people's riding skills. Even if it is a startled horse, someone still quickly got on the horse's back and controlled the startled horse...

"Wu Zhengshi, our horse is useless!"

"what for?"

"The horse ran out after being stabbed, bleeding profusely! It's useless!"

"High envoy, it's just a fight, what's the matter with the horse?"

Whoops, that's what I said.Didn't you just say that you are warriors on horseback...

Gao Yi felt that the Xixia man was on the verge of collapse, so he walked a little further away without saying a word... He had to think about what happened.

The two horses that ran out by accident could be controlled in this way, but in the post house, there are hundreds of frightened horses running around like this, it is not so easy to control...

The Xixia warriors gathered and headed towards the stables, but before they reached the stables, they heard that the horses were frightened...

The war horse galloped wildly amid the stinging pain, regardless of whether his master was in front of him or not...

"Quickly control the horse!"

"Hurry up……"

Shout out, but how can such a chaotic and frightened herd of horses be easily controlled?Unless you don't care about being trampled by a startled horse!
