Chapter Forty-Five: Flying Horses Show Their Edge
When flying horse training, the first thing that needs to be kept in mind is to obey orders and obey commands, before that, the orders they received were training, and Lu Bu was not subjected to them because of this, but Li Yan's heart was uncomfortable.
"Scouts not only need excellent skills, but also be bold and careful, and spy on the enemy's intelligence to the greatest extent without letting the enemy find out."
Li Yan kept these two sentences firmly in his heart, he is the deputy general of the flying cavalry, in fact, more time, he is the actual person in charge of the flying cavalry.
"Brothers, the time has come to test your training results, the enemy is ahead, all you have to do is kill, let all the enemies who come to attack be afraid, take up the weapons in your hands, and kill!"
More than 3,900 cavalry maintained a strict formation, looking at the figure in front of them, they were a little excited, their general was about to lead them to kill the enemy, and the long-awaited moment had finally arrived.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Three thousand nine hundred cavalrymen raised their weapons and shouted.
Dian Wei looked at Lu Bu with awe and admiration, and from the demeanor of these cavalrymen, he could see that the cavalry worshiped Lu Bu, which was entirely because of Lu Bu's personal charm.
Zhao He, who left Jinyang City at night, originally intended not to rest, and rushed back to Dingxiang directly, he was scared, the first time he was so close to death, he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but his soldiers and horses were exhausted, so he could only camp in a wasteland and bury the pot to cook.
"Big brother, don't worry, there are not many soldiers and horses in Jinyang City, plus last night's incident, Lu Bu must be very busy, how can he still have time to hunt us down." Zhao Yu, as the commander of Jinyang, still has a good understanding of the situation in Jinyang.
"Isn't there still a cavalry outside Jinyang City?" Zhao He said what he was most worried about.
"Big brother, those cavalry are some infantry who have just stepped on, don't worry." Zhao Yu said with a smile, but he didn't know that the information they inquired about was inadvertently leaked by Lu Bu.
The smoke rising from the cooking stove exposed the situation of Zhao He's army, and Lu Bu sneered: "Zhao He is still in the mood to eat. ”
"Lord, don't you have a full meal before you die?" Dian Wei laughed, but the double halberd in his hand was subconsciously clenched.
"Lord, the enemy army does not know the situation of our army, and directly rushes to kill it, and its formation will inevitably be chaotic." Li Yan also changed his name from the general to the lord, and he felt that he had a greater sense of belonging.
Lu Bu did not have strict requirements for his subordinates in this regard, and he could call "general" and "lord" himself.
"General Li's words are reasonable, we haven't eaten yet, how can we let them eat, snatch their food, and the brothers will eat." Lu Bu laughed.
The cavalry behind him let out bursts of laughter, and Lu Bu's vulgar words not only did not diminish Lu Bu's prestige in the army, but made them feel very cordial, which was also the reason why many people crowded their heads and wanted to enter the cavalry team led by Lu Bu.
The soldiers of Zhao Hejun, who fled overnight, smelled the fragrance of rice, and swallowed their saliva unconsciously, they were too hungry, plus they didn't sleep all night, and now their biggest wish is to eat a full meal, and then sleep beautifully.
There was a slight tremor on the ground, and the veterans who had experienced the battlefield immediately realized that something was wrong, only a cavalry charge had such momentum, and they greeted their companions and stared at the source of the sound with a wary expression.
"The cavalry is coming." The soldier in charge of the guard only had time to let out a shout, but an arrow was shot through his throat, and he rolled on the ground weakly holding his throat.
"Enemy attack!" The nearest cavalry had already begun to accelerate their charge, and the weapons in their hands had been replaced with bows and arrows, and the dust covering the sky and the sun was behind them, and they did not know how many cavalry there were.
Zhao He's face turned pale, this is also a wasteland, there is no terrain advantage to take advantage of, once the cavalry charges, how can this group of frightened birds under him have the slightest combat effectiveness at all.
"The cavalry was ordered to block the enemy, and the generals of all departments gathered their soldiers and moved closer to the Chinese army." Zhao cooperated to defend Dingxiang Taishou, and he still had certain skills, otherwise he would not have led a 3,000-strong army to raid Jinyang without being discovered.
"Kill, let this group of dirt buns on the other side see what cavalry is." One of the generals shouted with a bow and arrows.
A rain of arrows caused the cavalry of Zhao Hejun who had just rushed up to lose nearly 100 people, and the losses caused by their rain of arrows to the cavalry of Lu Bu's army were extremely limited, and the distance between the cavalry and the cavalry was very large, coupled with the advantage of having stirrups, these cavalry were strong horsemen and general-level figures in the eyes of the enemy.
The two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and the flying horses, who were still being trained, showed their sharp fangs, and their movements were not fancy, but they could kill them with a single blow.
Zhao Hejun's cavalry also wanted to cry without tears, the number of people who charged head-on was obviously about the same, but they often needed to face more than two enemy troops, and there was a gap in horsemanship, so how could there be a way to live.
Cooperation, which belongs to the coordination between cavalry, although it has only been long since the beginning of training, has begun to show results.
Dian Wei, who was following Lu Bu, was eager to try, thinking of his duty, he could only resist the urge to step forward and kill the enemy.
"Kill me!" Lu Bu beckoned, and the 1,000 cavalry that pressed the formation killed Zhao Hezhong's army from the left flank.
In the eyes of the flying cavalry soldiers, the enemy is no different from the infantry on the horse, and they dare not have too many dodging movements, lest they fall off the war horse, which also makes them firm in their determination to keep secrets, and if the stirrup in the general's mouth is obtained by the enemy, they will be uncomfortable.
With a huge advantage, Zhao He's cavalry began to crumble, and they would rather run away and be punished than face this terrible group of cavalry, in front of them, they were like children holding wooden clubs against strong men with sharp weapons.
More and more cavalry broke the will of Zhao Hejun's soldiers, who were at a disadvantage in numbers, but they had to face such a terrible number of cavalry.
Lu Bu rode first, and the halberd raised high, as the war horse continued to accelerate, it became heavier and heavier, and under one blow, the three shield soldiers were directly knocked away, and they stopped after hitting several soldiers.
Zhao He's face showed a look of horror, although he knew that Lu Bu was brave, but he didn't expect to be so brave and have such force.
The cavalry behind him saw that the main general was brave, and screamed to kill the enemy, under the charge of the cavalry, these infantry were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and no one dared to stop the cavalry charging at high speed.
Zhao He understands that once the cavalry penetrates his formation, his army will face a catastrophe, he understands the way the cavalry fights, the archers keep shooting arrows, but it does not play a big role, the distance between the flying cavalry soldiers is too large, and the riding skills are exquisite, unless they shoot the war horse.
