Su Chengyu remembered that in history, Longwu was chased to Changting City by four or five hundred Jianyu cavalry. The Qing army took advantage of the night to disguise himself to open the city gate and shot him to death in the palace.

Boluo's large army should still be on the front line of Jianning now, Yanping is on the south side of Jianning, and Tingzhou is to the south, and there should be no main force of the Qing army in Tingzhou at present.

That is, the number of enemies is not very large, but they are all light horses and very fast. If he continued to lead a large army south, no matter how fast he marched, he would not be able to outpace his horses.

Therefore, if you want to save Longwu before the Qing army, you must also send light cavalry to the south.

"Jianyu must be a small number of elite cavalry to advance, and it is difficult for us to go to the brigade of foot soldiers."

Su Chengyu turned to Zhang Jiayu and said: "Let Zhao Shichao select four hundred capable hussars, each with two horses, bring ten days of rations, and immediately follow me to Changting." ”

"Yes!" Zhang Jiayu immediately turned his horse and headed towards the cavalry queue.

Then Su Chengyu instructed Shi Lin again: "The personal soldier company is also equipped with two horses, and they will walk with me." ”

"Yes!"

"Your Highness, I'll go with you too." When Zhen Zhen heard that King Chen only took more than 500 horsemen to go on an adventure, how could he rest assured, so he immediately came up and said, "I am skilled in swords and horses, and I am by no means worse than your cavalry." ”

Su Chengyu shook his head and said, "No, this light ride is very dangerous, you can't go."

"I still need you to press the formation here."

Zhen Zhen raised her little face and said with a serious face: "Your Highness once said......" She caught a glimpse of Gu Yanwu also driving his horse over, and hurriedly changed his words, "Lord Gu once said, 'The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband!'" This matter is about the rise and fall of the world, and although I am a woman, it is also incumbent on me! ”

Su Chengyu didn't have the time to argue with her about this, thinking that the little girl's skills were really good, at least she wouldn't be a burden, so she reluctantly waved her hand and said, "Okay, you can come with you." ”

Zhen Zhen peeked at Su Chengyu's face, and immediately remembered that he had just said that the enemy army was all cavalry, and then said, "I can bring the iron leopard." His more than 200 people are skilled in martial arts, and they are especially good at fighting enemy horses. ”

Su Chengyu thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay." Let Tie Qian's subordinates also carry two horses, we are pressed for time. ”

He knew that this iron man had a team of lancers under his command. The Lancers are arguably the most difficult class of cavalry to train, but a well-trained Lancer can have a significant advantage when it comes to fighting the Saber Cavalry. These 200 people can be regarded as the elite of the elite of the Broken Camp, and bringing them with them should be able to make some difference.

"I'm going to call the Iron Leopard!"

Two quarters of an hour later, Su Chengyu and Zhen Zhen rode out one after the other, and more than 700 cavalrymen followed them to Tingzhou.

Although the Dragon Guard Army also needs Su Chengyu, the commander of the legion, he is familiar with the trend of history, and it is more likely that he can find and save Longwu with him present.

He had to temporarily hand over the Long Wei Army to Zhang Jiayu and Yu Xin to be responsible, and before leaving, he told Zhang Jiayu, Gu Yanwu and others to station the brigade in the south of Shaowu Mansion.

As soon as he came here, it was close to the north side of Tingzhou, and when he found Longwu, he could immediately return to join the main force. Second, Shao Wu was in the western part of Fujian, and Jianyu's main direction of attack was Fuzhou in the east, that is, the capital Tianxingfu, so that the Longwei army could avoid a large-scale decisive battle with the Qing army during the time he was away.

Su Chengyu and his entourage of cavalry were all rotated with two horses, and the Marshall people did not stop, and they arrived at Ninghua County in just one day.

It was the place he passed through when he was driven out of Fukyo.

Revisiting the old place, Su Chengyu didn't have the heart to take a second look, just crossed the city. However, there is no longer the bleak scene of the riots last year, and people working in the fields can be seen from time to time near the county seat.

At the end of this day, Zhen Zhen was simply amazed all the way, and he admired Su Chengyu more and more.

In the past, she had only heard that the training level of the Dragon Guards was extremely high, the military discipline was strict, and the officers of the Dragon Guards who were transferred to be in charge of training often said that the drills of the Broken Camp needed to be strengthened, which made her quite unconvinced.

She had seen officers and soldiers all over the country, and she asked herself that the training level of the camp had far exceeded that of any Ming officer army. She always felt that the instructors were just nitpicking.

But this time she participated in the actual battle with the Dragon Guard, but she was greatly impressed. The hundreds of horsemen of the Dragon Guard Army were cleaned up, and although they were already sleepy and tired after running for a day, the spacing of each horse did not deviate much from beginning to end, and no one shouted tired. On the contrary, Tie Dake's subordinates who had been practicing martial arts for many years had begun to complain that they wanted to rest.

In addition, the Long Weijun has always maintained two warning circles at half and three miles outside the brigade, with more than 10 people in the inner circle and more than 30 people in the outer circle, and always maintained the contact between the number and the whistle. Every other hour, a group of people went to change the guard.

With such a formation, if the enemy wants to ambush and sneak attack, it is simply wishful thinking.

Even when they stopped to eat in the middle, the soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army kept a neat queue. Everyone had their short guns checked before taking out the dry food to eat.

Only a hero like King Chen can train such an elite hero, Zhen Zhen secretly looked at Su Chengyu, and in her eyes, he seemed to be emitting bursts of brilliance. Thinking that she could gallop with the big hero in her heart, she felt infinite joy in her heart, only felt that her cheeks were a little hot, and she hurriedly clamped the horse's belly, turned her eyes away and shouted, "Drive!" ”

The next day, as soon as Su Chengyu led the team out of more than ten miles, he suddenly heard a bang on the east side of the queue, followed by a long and short warning whistle. This is the enemy warning in the Dragon Guard's standard signaling sentry list.

Su Chengyu immediately ordered the change from a marching army formation to a combat formation, with the second cavalry battalion of the Dragon Guard Army in front, Tie Dake's headquarters in the flank and rear, and the whole team facing the east side and standing by.

A moment later, the hussars sent to investigate the situation reported that six cavalrymen had been found on the east side. The perimeter cordon engaged the enemy, killing two enemies and wounding one, and our troops suffered no casualties.

Su Chengyu lowered his head and thought carefully, Tingzhou is still under the control of the Ming army at the moment, these Jianyu cavalry will definitely not be scouts who come to investigate, these people should also be in charge of guarding a certain Qing army cavalry team.

As if to confirm his guess, the horn sound sounded on the east side, which was obviously different from that of the Dragon Guard, far and near. Listening to the range and frequency of the horn sound, the number of enemy troops seems to be quite large.

At the moment, I don't know where the Longwu people are, Su Chengyu looked in the direction where the voice came from, if there were other Jianyu troops in Tingzhou, it was very likely that they would find Longwu earlier than themselves!

So the safest way is to see one and destroy the other! If he could wipe out all the Jianyu cavalry that had entered Tingzhou, even if he found the emperor later, he would not be in any danger.

Thinking of this, Su Chengyu decisively ordered the whole army to attack and take the initiative to engage in battle.
