Seeing Hua Xiong, who was still complacent about not running away from his family and standing firm in front of him, Sima Yi silently moved some distance with his buttocks, for fear of being infected.
[I should have thought before that a speed-type enhancement would be easy for a strong man like Xiliang Iron Cavalry to catch. How could he be restricted by speed? It turns out that Li Wenru had no intention of letting these people escape from the very beginning. . 】Sima Yi instantly understood the cause and effect.
[Forcibly put him to death and live again, this guy is so cruel, he doesn't regard human life as human life at all. 】 Sima Yi silently wiped a cold sweat. He was sure that there were definitely many people who had seen this by now, but no one would tell the Xiliang Cavalry itself.
"By the way, have you ever been chased and chopped down?" Sima Yi asked with a hint of curiosity.
"How could I have been chased and chopped down?" Hua Xiong said angrily, "Well, I can't say that I haven't been. That time in Northern Xinjiang, I was chased and killed by the Huns' imperial guards. In the end, I found that I couldn't run away, so I cut him down hard. We’re back, but when you think about it carefully, it’s quite strange that you chose to run that time. We haven’t seen any cavalry that runs slower than us.”
Sima Yi nodded silently and didn't want to say anything. Sure enough, after more than ten or almost twenty years, the Xiliang cavalry basically no longer had the consciousness to run away when facing their opponents.
"What if you encounter someone you can't beat?" Sima Yi asked.
"First of all, we have never encountered them before. The previous batch were considered the strongest opponents we have ever encountered, but we won. Secondly, if we can't beat them, we can't run away. It's better to go head-to-head. ." When Hua Xiong said this, he showed strong confidence.
Sima Yi fell into silence. What Hua Xiong said makes sense. You can't run away anyway, so it's better to fight head-on. In this way, you have no choice but to fight head-on on the battlefield. Any legion that has been around for twenty years will not be destroyed as long as it is not destroyed. , it’s really not surprising that the Iron Cavalry has this fighting ability.
"Hey, it's just that my legs are short, so I'm always weak when chasing others. Over the years, I only had the strength to chase Cao Sikong, and never caught up with me at other times." Hua Xiong slapped his thigh and said rather resentfully. It could be seen that Hua Xiong is also very motivated to chase and kill others.
You must know that in normal history, as long as you pursue, you will basically chase for more than ten to twenty miles before giving up, because your own scouts have already scouted this range, there will be no accidents, and their own physical strength The loss is still barely acceptable.
In this world with the essence of heaven and earth, people will usually chase for thirty miles. Only the iron cavalry will usually chase after five miles, because the opponent will get rid of the short-legged cavalry in less than ten miles.
Therefore, apart from the one time when Cao Cao experienced an ambush from all sides, Hua Xiong has never enjoyed the thrill of chasing others. Every time the cavalry chases him, he can only watch his opponent run further and further away. This feeling is not happy at all. .
"It's good. At least you are chasing others every time." Sima Yi patted Hua Xiong on the shoulder and said, running slowly is not a problem, as long as you can defeat the opponent, the pursuit can be left to other younger brothers. To deal with, for example, the Qiang cavalry.
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, where are your Qiang cavalry auxiliary soldiers?" Sima Yi asked curiously. Hua Xiong's Qiang cavalry auxiliary soldiers are still very good at fighting. Although they don't know where they came from, of course Zhang Xiu also has such a group of auxiliary soldiers, but it seems that they are not as capable as Hua Xiong.
"I can't afford to raise them, so I sent them back to Congling, and asked Zhiran and the others to help raise them." Hua Xiong sighed and said, the Qiang Cavalry auxiliary soldiers are good, and their combat power of over 100 bonuses is the best among dual talents. However, the terrain here in the Leqistan Desert was not suitable for Qiang cavalry auxiliary troops. Hua Xiong thought for a while and felt that they could not just eat and not work, so he sent these auxiliary troops back to Congling.
Although Cao Cao was very distressed by this, he did not ask Hua Xiong to stay, so Hua Xiong sent Zhang Xiu's group of Qiang auxiliary soldiers who only ate and could not work back to Congling.
For this reason, Cao Cao lost a legion of dual-talented elite cavalry and 30,000 ordinary Qiang assault cavalry. Cao Cao no longer knew what to say about this.
"I think it's better to recruit them back." Sima Yi's mouth twitched and said, "You only need to take care of the food, and you can fight with some elite soldiers, and they are also cavalry. What a waste of you."
"After a while, when Zhiran and the others get tired, they will bring the Qiang cavalry over again." Hua Xiong waved his hand and said, people like Hua Xiong were very clear about the habits of the Qiang cavalry, "And if we go back this time, He There must have been another group of Qiang cavalry gathered over at Lat."
Sima Yi fell into silence. Are Qiang cavalry just grass to you? The kind that grows again after being cut and thrown aside?
In fact, what Sima Yi didn't know was that a large number of Liangzhou people were coming to Congling. If Li hadn't brought Kuai Yue back to take charge of Congling, Li would have sent out tools to start driving away the Qiang people. There was no way, Li His thinking is very simple. People from Liangzhou are one of his own. Even if they don't farm, they will still be their brothers when they come. Of course, they have to make room.
Fortunately, Kuai Yue could still control Li and prevent Li from coming. No matter how extravagant and wasteful the place in Congling was, it was enough for these people to live.
But even so, Li was still thinking about getting the Qiang cavalry to Hua Xiong's side. After all, there were more than 100,000 young men from Liangzhou who came out to serve as soldiers behind him.
It turns out that these guys were the ones who had quarreled with Chen Xi before. After irritating Chen Xi, Chen Xi finally approved the decree to get rid of these people. So the bachelors in Liangzhou picked up their weapons and equipment and ran away from the Northwest Passage in cheers. Out.
In Li's opinion, this group of people is the best target to recruit troops, and there is room for implementation of the 80,000 Xiliang cavalry gradient team building that he had imagined before, so the Qiang cavalry will no longer be needed. Li plans to go back to the winter after winter , and asked the Qiang to ride to Hua Xiong's side, indicating that they, Congling, would take the lead in supporting Cao Cao in expanding his territory.
"That's right." Sima Yi nodded silently. Although he didn't understand the reason, Sima Yi was still willing to trust this speculation.
On the other side, a huge collision broke out between Cao Cao and Barak. Almost the mountain roads on the southwest side of Kandahar entered a state of chaos. Cao Cao's troops were greatly diluted.
Of course, even so, Balak still didn't take any decent advantage. It can only be said that he really suppressed Cao Cao. After all, the military advantage was too obvious.
"Fortunately, we are prepared, otherwise we may really be broken through by the opponent. Once our current strength is broken out by the opponent, I am afraid we will be surrounded. The opponent's force is probably five times that of ours. Fortunately, the mountain road is narrow. The other side cannot fully utilize their strength advantage." Cao Cao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in horror.
Cao Cao was really shocked this time. Cheng Yu predicted Guishang's strategy so perfectly that Cao Cao also raised the opponent too high, really thinking that the opponent could annihilate him.
"Just hold on to the first wave." Cheng Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. "After the first wave was blocked, it would be very difficult for them to break through. I don't know what the situation is in other aspects. I hope nothing happens. Accident."
"Sikong, good news. Lu Meng's troops broke through the blockade of Kapil's troops estimated by our army and rushed towards Kandahar." At this time, the intelligence personnel from the rear who came from the previous main camp brought information that was enough to stimulate everyone's spirits. information.
"What?" Cheng Yu was stunned, "Didn't Kapil have several guards and military souls attack at the same time?"
"No, it was five Imperial Guards plus military souls, but General Lu successfully broke through." The intelligence officer explained immediately and handed over the secret letter.
At this time, Cheng Yu didn't even care that Cao Cao was in front of him. He took it directly and looked at the content on it. After confirming again and again that this was indeed a secret report issued by Lu Meng, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"What's wrong, Zhongde? Is it a false secret report?" Cao Cao asked cautiously. He was already mentally prepared. If a false secret report was received at this time, it is self-evident what would happen to Lu Meng.
"No, the secret report is true. We misjudged something. This plan was not jointly made by Kapil and Kumara. It should have been done by Kumara herself. Kapil's intelligence does not seem to be very high. Ming should meet up with Gongda near Kandahar." Cheng Yu analyzed a lot of things in an instant.
"Ziming and the others are okay?" Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this. No matter what, Lu Meng was not Cao Cao's headquarters all the way. Compared with the damage to Cao Cao's headquarters, this group of people was damaged. Even if Cao Cao didn't do it intentionally, it was inevitable that someone would go here. On the one hand, I think that for this reason, Cao Cao only affects the current framework of the unification of the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao really does not want to destroy the current situation because of his own accident.
"Not only will it be fine, but they can also achieve great success. If they join forces with Gongda and the others, get stuck behind Barak, and frighten Barak with false information, we should be able to annihilate the three men under Barak's command, even if we are not familiar with the terrain here. One-third of the troops." Cheng Yu said excitedly, never expecting that there would be such an opportunity.
"Stuck here?" Cao Cao reacted instantly and looked at the map hanging in the camp. Compared with the clear mountain roads on the outside, there were many vacancies inside, but there were still two very clear mountain roads. This was an opportunity.
"Yes, that's right there." Cheng Yu nodded. Lu Meng's ability to penetrate Kapil was beyond the expectations of Cheng Yu and others. In Cheng Yu's previous estimation, Kapil only needed to put his gun and shield in front. , the phalanx with the armored cavalry at the back, the archers and military souls in the middle, and the imperial infantry at the back was enough to crush Lu Meng, so how could there be a possibility of a breakthrough.
As a result, a secret report was received saying that Kapil chose to surround him, and Cheng Yu was so surprised that he didn't die laughing! Surrounding any opponent is equivalent to diluting your frontal forces. I really think you are Bai Qi. Even if there is a mountain terrain, Lu Meng is not Zhao Kuo!
