Chapter 1113 Xuanwu dispatched

Liangliao border, outside Hulu City

Thousands of right cavalrymen were galloping on their horses. When they reached a fork in the road, they all reined in their reins and dismounted one by one.

The garrison in Gourd City has long prepared the dry food and horse feed needed by the soldiers here to provide all the supplies for the army.

The cavalry ate big rations of dry food and moved their somewhat stiff bodies. The horses that had been galloping for a long time could finally rest for a while.

The 30,000 right cavalry troops were divided into several teams of several thousand cavalry, each walking on impassable roads. They began to join together after entering Beiliang, which could reduce the pressure on military towns along the way to supply military supplies.

Because of the cold weather, hot breath was exhaling from the mouths of both the soldiers and the horses.

Guan Shaoyong ate big mouthfuls of dry food and muttered: "We should be able to reach Wuguan in three or four days."

"It's almost the same. You can increase your speed after entering Beiliang. There shouldn't be any probing horses from the Yan army here." Bu Wenshan glanced at the sky and said.

They had been marching all the way back to Beiliang from the front line of Luoyun City for seven or eight days. Because they were worried about being discovered by Yan Army spies, they chose a hidden and detoured mountain road as much as possible.

After entering Beiliang, they had almost no worries, and they could go on their way without worries.

In Luoyun City, in order not to arouse the suspicion of Zhou Weiran and Wanyan Bi, the Suppressing Liao Army often went out of the city to fight under the banner of the Right Cavalry Army to confuse the Yan Army.

But this method is destined to be unsustainable, and sooner or later the Yan army will see through it.

And Chen Yue wants to seize this hard-to-find time gap to eat Yan Jun!

The cavalry rested for a while, then got on their horses again and hurried towards Wuguan.

There is still a big battle waiting for them.



"kill!"

"Boom~"

In front of Tianlang Pass, a tragic massacre was going on.

Thousands of Yan army infantry fell like wheat, leaving almost no room to fight back.

The sun is still bright today and the weather is not that cold, so the Yan army came to attack the city as usual.

Unfortunately, before they could lay out their formation, a large group of cavalry rushed out of the city and scattered their siege formation.

The cavalry that went out to fight this time was not the Sirius Army or the garrison cavalry, but actual heavy cavalry:

Great Liang Xuanwu!

The neatly arranged heavy cavalry brought strong oppression to the Yan army, and they were filled with murderous intent.

There were not many cavalry troops, only a thousand men, but just these one thousand men made the faces of the Yan army's infantry full of despair.

"Boom~"

Xiang Jian rode his horse and held a gun, and a hundred heavily armored heavy cavalry lined up in a row, charging forward at high speed.

In front of them was a makeshift phalanx of horse-resistance, which was slightly chaotic.

In the front row of the phalanx were dozens of infantrymen holding large and small shields, and behind them were piles of ordinary infantrymen. Only a handful of them held long spears used to resist horses, and almost all of them had short knives.

They were siege soldiers. Could it be that they were attacking the city with spears?

"The shield soldiers in the front row hold on! Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

"Stabilize the formation! Don't panic!"

The captain of the Yan Army who was commanding from the center roared loudly. In fact, he was full of helplessness.

Doesn't he know that this shabby horse-rejecting formation can't stop the Liang army at all? No, he knows. But turning around and running away at this time will only lead to a worse death.

"Boom~"

The horses with clanking iron hoofs had already arrived in front of the infantry. The Yan army infantry could almost see the cold and ruthless gaze coming out of their helmets.

Those infantrymen were trembling all over, knowing that there was no way they could stop the Liang army, so they could only hope that they could survive the first wave of Liang army's charge.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Pfft, pfft~"

The shield soldiers in the front row were rushed away. The Xuanwu Army did not deliberately accelerate at all, but simply charged forward.

The front hooves of the war horse knocked Yan Bing to the ground easily, and the next moment, the armored horse's hooves would crush his chest.

No matter how many crossbowmen in the rear fired their arrows, they could not slow down the Xuanwu Army's attack.

As soon as the anti-horse formation was broken, the Yan soldiers immediately killed birds and beasts, and the soldiers of the Xuanwu Army only needed to wave their spears lightly to capture the enemy's head.

Using your back to counter the spears and scimitars of the heavy cavalry? It just takes a little more effort than cutting wheat.

"Puff, puff, puff~"

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

"Run! Run away!"

At first, under the pressure of the officers, ordinary soldiers could form a formation to resist the enemy, but as the breath of death spread, the siege army finally collapsed.

The soldiers trampled on each other and ran in all directions. The whole place was filled with shrill screams. Blood mixed with the corpses, making the battlefield scarlet.

The so-called suppressing cavalry army numbered three thousand, but before they could rush into the battlefield to coordinate the retreat of the infantry, the Sirius army rushed out of the city.

The Xuanwu Army, on the other hand, concentrated on massacring the infantry without anyone disturbing them.

The battle lasted for more than an hour before a large group of Yan Army cavalry arrived on the battlefield from the rear.

The Xuanwu Army and the Tianlang Army were not willing to fight, and when the reinforcements arrived, they withdrew into the city without hesitation.

Youzhou General Liang Suichao suddenly appeared at the top of Tianlang Pass and said with a smile:

"The Xuanwu Army is trying its best, maybe it will scare Mu Yunhuan out of his wits, right?"

"Hahaha~" All the generals laughed out loud



"What did you say? Xuanwu Army? Why did the Xuanwu Army appear here?"

In the Yan Jun commander's tent, Mu Yunhuan was loudly questioning the generals who had retreated from the front line.

The middle-aged general said tremblingly: "I don't know, general, but they are indeed heavy cavalry, almost a thousand in number."

"Damn it, I guessed it right!" Tu Danlin cursed angrily.

Now he naturally thought of the troop movement in the past few days. In his opinion, the appearance of the main force of the Liang army in Liaodong was clearly a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

"Go down!" Mu Yunhuan waved his hand a little irritably. What he was afraid of was not the thousands of Xuanwu troops, but the troops that did not appear on the battlefield.

The Xuanwu Army is coming, have the Daliang Dragon Cavalry arrived? Have the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the White Snow Guard arrived?

Mu Yunhuan and Tu Shanlin were like frightened birds, spinning around in panic.

"The Liang army must be playing tricks! According to the scouts' reports, many new garrison troops have been added to Tianlang Pass recently. It seems that there must be 5,000 Xuanwu troops now!" Tu Danlin said with certainty.

Mu Yunhuan stared at the map with his brows furrowed. He was confused by Chen Yue. The main cavalry army was moving around and he didn't know what he wanted to do.

But there is no doubt that the Liang Army will probably launch a big operation.

"Your Highness! If Liangjun really wants to attack us, we can't defeat us, and we can't afford to lose! Once we lose, we will be useless in front of His Majesty!" Tu Danlin shouted in a deep voice:

"For this plan, the army will retreat and form a camp, and then ask His Highness the Crown Prince to send reinforcements quickly! He was the one who transferred our military strength! The responsibility should be borne by him!"

Mu Yunhuan nodded slowly with a cold face:
Chapter completed!
