"Run with me——"
On the flat ground outside Dayuan Pass in Lizhou, a cavalry army wearing black armor was heading west in unison.
As the commander-in-chief, Zhu Zirong's face was full of murderous intent at this time.
Previously, when I met Qingqi from Xishu, to be honest, although I had the advantage, it was not a great achievement. But this time, after receiving military orders from their lord again, it was time for this world-famous bow cavalry in the north to display its majesty.
"General Zhu, please wait a moment, be careful of an ambush by the Shu people."
Behind Zhu Zirong, Yuchi Ding, who was also riding a horse, couldn't help shouting.
The bow cavalry went out to fight. This time, he also received the order. He and another Beiyu general each led ten thousand cavalry troops to cooperate with the bow cavalry to block the lame people from Xishu.
In his opinion, this matter is not difficult. Although the number is not good, but no matter what, the archers led by Zhu Zirong are the elite of Beiyu. How can they be compared with those ordinary cavalry.
No wonder, this time I can avenge my two sworn brothers!
After thinking about it and seeing Zhu Zirong's appearance again, Yu Chiding didn't bother to persuade him any more. That's fine, if you take advantage of the situation to contain the harassment, you may be able to achieve miraculous results.
Yu Chiding, who had lowered his voice and said no more words, closely followed Zhu Zirong, leading his men and horses as they ran forward. After running for nearly ten miles, there was finally a fast horse scout in front, who hurried back.
"Report to the three generals that an army of Shu people was discovered less than five miles ahead!"
Yuchi Ding sneered. Next to him, Zhu Zirong and another Beiyu general also narrowed their eyes. I just thought that this time, I would show off my power.
"Safety is our top priority. Let us first find out where the Shu people's cavalry is now. You all know that the terrain of Lizhou is very likely to be overwhelmed by the enemy's cavalry if you are not careful."
The person who spoke was another Beiyu general named Zhang Qiu. He was a powerful general who followed the Beiyu King in the south and north, and was promoted through military exploits. Probably because they were worried that Yu Chiding was too young, they divided the 20,000 cavalry into two groups, each receiving 10,000.
"General Zhang is right."
Zhu Zirong suppressed his temper, waved his hand, and asked a few personal guards to lead people as quickly as possible to find out where Shuqi was.
Here, it was not far from the front line of the war, and he didn't want to waste time. If the lame man from Xishu was allowed to successfully rush to help, it would be another humiliation.
Soon, the personal guards who went to investigate quickly brought back the information.
"Don't worry, general. We have discovered that the cavalry camp of Xishu is marching with the people of Xishu."
"Are you trying to defend the two wings?" Zhu Zirong smiled lightly.
"The general knows things like a god...that's exactly what happens."
"Then, I, Zhu Zirong, will personally teach these Shu people how to fight a cavalry war! Send the order, the army is ready to set off, follow me to intercept the Shu people's reinforcements!"
Under Zhu Zirong's order, both Yuchi Ding and Zhang Qiu next to him suddenly had serious expressions on their faces. Their mission is to hold back the lame support army. So that my lord and military advisor can break through King Xu Shu's defense there as quickly as possible.
"Prioritize the containment of intrusion and prepare the entire army!"
"kill--"
The horses' hooves were like thunder, and after a while, there was a rolling sound like thunder throughout the world.
…
Sitting in the carriage, looking at the table in front of him and the tea cup shaking violently, Dongfang Jing suddenly frowned.
Someone opened the curtain of the carriage, and a figure flashed in. It was guard Li Saner.
"Military advisor, something bad is going on. The Beiyu cavalry is almost here."
"how many people?"
"I don't know the exact number, but the scouts in front reported that not only the bow cavalry, but also the Beiyu light cavalry. At first glance, there are at least 30,000 cavalry."
"Victory this time is such a big deal."
"Military advisor, I, General Chaoyi of Western Shu, have only brought out 20,000 horses. There is no way... they will be blocked here by these Beiyu people."
"No." Dongfang Jing shook his head seriously. He always takes precautions against dangers that he can consider. For example, Wei Feng's hidden heavy cavalry, or the more than 7,000 Beiyu soldiers brought out of Dayuan Pass.
"San'er, pass the order for me and tell Chao Yi not to charge first. At that time, I will have people beat the tong drum as a charge signal. In addition, tell Lu Zhong that the 7,000 surrendered soldiers can take action. ”
To avoid being discovered by the Beiyu people, one of the 7,000 surrendered soldiers was placed at the end of the long army, like civilians, guarded by Lu Zhong.
Li San'er took the order and quickly got out of the carriage.
At this time, in the large formation rushing for reinforcements, except for Chao Yi's Xishu Cavalry Battalion, many infantry were ready to form formations to resist the Beiyu Cavalry Army.
Zhu Zirong, who had just arrived, had a cold look on his face.
"I originally thought that the Shu thieves' cavalry would fight against me. But now it seems that he is standing still. He clearly knows that there is no chance of winning."
The Shu thief in his mouth was Chao Yi who had fought a life and death battle.
Following Dongfang Jing's order, although he was a little unwilling, Chao Yi still stabilized the army and immediately charged to kill without meeting anyone.
"How can we stop the Shu people's infantry formation?" Next to Zhu Zirong, Yu Chiding had an angry look on his face. Two younger brothers died, and only the blood of Shu people could relieve his hatred.
Clang.
Yuchi Ding drew his knife angrily and pointed at the enemy formation ahead.
"Send my military order and prepare to charge!"
"charge!"
Zhu Zirong and Zhang Qiu, who were nearby, also began to lead their troops and were about to kill the Shu people's formation. The Shu general who also led the cavalry must have been stupid at this moment. He was so close in front of him and he still stood still.
"General Yuchi, something is wrong. Why are there so many people running towards the Shu people's formation?" Just as he was about to run out, the cautious Zhang Qiu suddenly discovered something.
…
"My lord is kind, and I will let you go back this time." In front of the Western Shu camp, a young Shu general spoke with a cold voice.
His name was Lu Zhong. This time, on Dongfang Jing's order, he sent more than 7,000 Beiyu soldiers brought out from Dayuan Pass back to the Beiyu Cavalry Formation.
After hearing Lu Zhong's words, several Beiyu captains and generals nearby were overjoyed and thanked him profusely.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhong suddenly drew his knife, and with a "click", he directly hacked to death a Beiyu captain. This appearance made many of the soldiers nearby turn pale with shock.
"My lord wants to let you go, but I, Lu Zhong, have not finished speaking. Remember, there is only half a stick of incense left. I, Lu Zhong, and my men will shoot you with my bow from behind."
After listening to Lu Zhong's words, the more than 7,000 Beiyu surrender soldiers were released without stopping at all. One or two, they ran forward quickly.
The Beiyu cavalry troops who were roaring in front were shocked when they saw this strange scene. The most important thing is that these people turned out to be real, they were the Qi army who was trapped in Dawan Pass last night.
"Generals, help!"
Pulling in the reins, Yuchi gritted his teeth. Being blocked by these thousands of surrendered soldiers, I am afraid that the entire cavalry camp formation will be blocked to death.
Although it is said that these surrendered troops can be killed... but no matter what, these surrendered troops were all from Beiyu before!
