If Zhao Yulong had not attacked civilians, Qin Feng would never have crossed the line. The two sides only had to fight face to face on the battlefield.
But now, Zhao Yulong has sent troops to kill unarmed civilians, which has touched Qin Feng's bottom line.
Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Feng took a deep breath, his eyes already igniting the fire of revenge.
Naturally, it was impossible for Qin Feng to retaliate in the same way. After all, the people on the other side were all people of Daliang, but this did not mean that Qin Feng could not retaliate.
"Pass my order, all infantry will stay in the north to resist enemy harassment, and all cavalry will be sent out."
"Within ten days, I will make sure that there are no imperial soldiers within a hundred miles, and within a month, I will kill all the imperial troops within five hundred miles."
Although Qin Feng cannot launch attacks on important city-state towns, in addition to city-states, there are also data points and garrison areas.
Except for the city-state, all other military facilities and personnel are within the scope of Qin Feng's revenge.
Ning Hu and other generals also had extremely gloomy expressions on their faces. They took the order and immediately made arrangements according to Qin Feng's instructions.
At noon the next day, a large number of cavalry left the station and headed towards Zhao Yulong's defense area.
A total of 20,000 cavalry were divided into a hundred battalions, each with 200 men.
At the same time, each battalion is divided into five teams, each team has forty people.
In other words, a full five hundred cavalry squads poured into the imperial jurisdiction like gravel.
Because there were too many cavalry and they were extremely scattered, even if Zhao Yulong had learned the news, he still could not send out a decent army to intercept.
After all, he has sent nearly half of his troops to the north to attack everywhere.
The remaining troops need to defend the frontal battlefield and protect the logistics line. Therefore, although there are more than 100,000 troops under their command, there are no troops available at this time.
After all, the enemies who came to guerrilla were all cavalry, and they were too fast.
If infantry is sent to pursue and intercept, it must be sent on a large enough scale to reduce the scope of the cavalry's activities and eventually catch them all.
But the problem lies precisely here, Zhao Yulong cannot send out a large-scale infantry force.
As for sending cavalry to deal with the guerrilla cavalry in the north, another grim fact has to be faced, that is, Zhao Yulong does not have that many cavalry at all.
Zhao Yulong had more than 100,000 troops under his command, but he only had more than 3,000 cavalry.
Even if all three thousand cavalry are sent out, they will not be able to stop the northern guerrilla cavalry tactically, and they may even be surrounded by the opponent in reverse.
Facing Qin Feng's revenge, Zhao Yulong really had no effective way to deal with it.
However, the war situation is changing rapidly and will not stop at all because of Zhao Yulong's hesitation.
A large number of guerrilla cavalry, as if entering uninhabited territory, attacked everywhere. In just a few days, people were everywhere in a radius of hundreds of miles, and all the garrison strongholds suffered devastating blows.
A post station located in Changting Township was also attacked.
Changting Station is an important transfer station that Dingtao County relies on. Whether it is for the troops to stop here or for the transportation of materials, they all need to use Changting Station.
Changting Station, which had already received the news, had made preparations in advance, with more than 400 people stationed there.
According to the stationmaster's speculation, the northern guerrilla cavalry only fight in small groups. If a hundred and eighty people came to forcefully capture the Changting Station, it would be nothing more than a dream.
These four hundred men were enough to deal with an attack by thousands of cavalry.
The result was beyond the station commander's expectation. The guerrilla cavalry did come, but it was not one team or one battalion, but ten battalions, two thousand people!
When Wuyang Wuyang's cavalry began to besiege Changting Station from all directions, the stationmaster felt a little dull.
"Why are so many people coming?!"
"There are only four hundred people in the station. It is simply unrealistic to block so many cavalry."
"It's over, it's all over this time."
The stationmaster looked desperate and was ready to surrender.
The soldiers stationed at the post station were still fighting bloody battles, relying on the houses and fortifications in the post station to stop the guerrilla cavalry without fear of death.
Unfortunately, all efforts were in vain, because the guerrilla cavalry did not worry about reinforcements coming to support Changting Station.
Therefore, they were not in a hurry to attack by force. Instead, they surrounded Changting Station and continued to harass them in roundabout ways.
In addition to shooting the guards who were not well hidden, they also continued to shoot rockets into the inn. Soon a raging fire was ignited in the inn, and wailing sounds broke out all of a sudden.
Even though Changting Post Station had been reduced to a sea of flames, most of the guards had no idea how such a large group of cavalry arrived at Changting Post Station.
You know, Changting Post Station is a hundred and thirty miles away from Dingtao County. If a large group of cavalry is marching, it will definitely be blocked.
But these two thousand cavalrymen seemed to fall from the sky, catching the defenders off guard.
They were used to fighting infantry, and faced swarms of cavalry, they were frightened and confused.
In the entire Liang Dynasty, the person with the most unique experience in cavalry combat was naturally Qin Feng.
Although the 20,000 cavalry rushed into the Daliang area in batches and in small groups of forty, the problem was that the high mobility advantage of the cavalry could not be compensated by the infantry.
The twenty thousand cavalry were scattered like stars in the sky, and gathered together like a thunder blow.
In just half a day, the scattered cavalrymen fighting independently can gather together through the messengers to form a terrifying force of thousands of people.
The world only knows that cavalry is fast, good at guerrilla warfare, and that heavy cavalry can charge into battle, but they don't know that this is just the tactical advantage of cavalry.
The real strategic advantage is the numerical advantage of the cavalry!
Yes, these cavalry, which are expensive to build and train, should be smaller in number than the infantry, but the result is exactly the opposite. Once a fight breaks out, the number of cavalry is far greater than the infantry.
Because the cavalry will not storm the large-scale infantry phalanx that has been deployed, but whenever it takes action, it will only attack small groups or isolated enemies.
Infantry are limited by speed and cannot be supported in a short time.
The cavalry can continue to quickly reinforce, and the number will increase, and eventually the enemy will be completely overwhelmed in terms of numbers.
Under the constant harassment and consumption of two thousand guerrilla cavalry, the four hundred defenders of Changting Station were wiped out in just one day.
The guerrilla cavalry rushed into the inn, took away all the usable supplies inside, and then disbanded on the spot, restored small combat units based on teams, and continued to guerrilla everywhere.
The reason why Qin Feng was able to control the cavalry to this extent was not because of a single order, but because there was an extremely large transit organization behind him!
