He Fei was sitting on a big stone holding an ax gun. Behind him stood a soldier who had received medical training from a smart monk. He was bandaging He Fei's wounds. The bullet from the fire gun just now damaged He Fei's ear.

Half of it was bitten off. So when He Fei was bandaging it, he grinned in pain.

However, this battle seemed to have twists and turns, but it did not last long, not even half an hour. After Song Xiang escaped, the army only did some chasing and capturing.

In this battle, more than 30 people were killed and injured in Hefei, while the miners left nearly 400 corpses. In fact, in the face-to-face battle, the miners' losses were not large, and most of the casualties were

When the miners were escaping, they were killed by Hefei's soldiers behind them. In addition, Hefei's soldiers also captured more than 1,800 miners and their families.

Shu Mo, who was directing the aftermath work, walked up to He Fei after seeing that the situation was completely under control. He Fei looked at Shu Mo with a feeling of admiration. He didn't expect the timid Shu Mo at all.

He actually had the courage to launch a counterattack with him.

When He Fei was about to praise Shu Mo, he didn't expect Shu Mo to stop in front of He Fei, slapped his chest with his hand and said, "Oh my god! It really scared me to death!"

At this time, the two centurions of cavalry were still walking on another mountain road. The leader commanding these two centuries was Zug, the commander-in-chief of the cavalry who was transferred back.

After setting off and galloping for a while, all the cavalry, except for a few cavalry who were still riding their horses to clear the way ahead for reconnaissance, began to lead their horses forward under Zug's order.

We may have a misunderstanding that the cavalry moves very fast. In fact, this is not the case. In order to ensure the physical strength of the horses when going to the battlefield, the cavalry generally takes care of their horses and leads them forward before going to the battlefield. Therefore, the marching speed is also

Only slightly faster than infantry.

Especially Wu Shigong's cavalry, because it is not easy to get horses, and the entire army attaches great importance to cavalry, so all Wu Shigong's cavalry simply love their horses as their own sons, and are not willing to let them go.

The war horse spends more energy.

In addition, for horses, the endurance of horses is actually far less than that of humans. Although horses are much faster than humans in short sprints, they can never outrun a well-trained long-distance runner in long distances.

.Otherwise, the ancient Greeks would not have been so stupid as to send a person to run a marathon to deliver the message instead of using cavalry to deliver the message. That is because people can run faster than horses over long distances.

Of course, this problem can also be solved. For example, in the movement of cavalry, a cavalryman owns several horses and changes horses; in delivering messages, the messenger changes horses at the post station. However, this approach is definitely applicable to Wu Shigong's current cavalry.

It was unrealistic, so Wu Shigong's cavalry still used the most primitive methods to preserve the physical strength of their horses.

But at this moment, the cavalry who was exploring the road in front hurriedly came back and reported to Zug: "Sir, there is smoke and dust on the mountain road ahead. It is estimated that dozens of horses are coming."

In this poor mountainous area, there are no large horse teams at all. Since there are dozens of horses, they must be horse bandits. But Zug estimated the time. It shouldn't be long before the forward He Fei's army arrived at Dahuai Village? Why?

Will horse bandits come over? Have these cavalrymen been discovered by horse bandits?

No matter what the reason was, it was better to mount the horse and prepare to fight. So Zug immediately ordered the cavalry to mount the horse and form a cavalry battle formation of four people in a row according to the width of the mountain road. All the cavalry also held lances and controlled

The horse trotted along the mountain road at a fast pace.

Song Xiang had led these horse bandits for more than ten miles at the fastest horse speed. The feeling of fear that arose in his heart made Song Xiang feel that the farther away from Dahuai Village, the better.

What is somewhat funny is that, except for the few horse bandits who deserted with Song Xiang at that time, the other horse bandits were a little baffled that Song Xiang abandoned his village and ran away. In their opinion,

, even if he abandoned the village and ran away, he should still go back to the mountain temple and bring out the money from the mountain temple! But because Song Xiang was silent in front and only focused on escaping, it made the horse bandits feel bad now.

Also very nervous.

But just as Zug arranged the battle formation and moved forward, Song Xiang's horse bandits also observed the smoke and dust on the mountain road ahead. So the horse bandits also reined in their horses and looked at the mountain road ahead.

There happened to be a turn in this mountain road. When the cavalry appeared at the turn, Song Xiang's face immediately turned pale. He shouldn't be too familiar with this cavalry team. Without saying anything, Song Xiang turned his horse's head and wanted to run away.

When the horse bandits like Song Xiang arrived, Zug's cavalry also let go of their horses, raised their lances and charged over.

When the horse bandits saw the heavily armed cavalry rushing towards them, they exploded. They also turned their horses and tried to escape the way they came. But this time, Song Xiang, who had just escaped at the front, had no way of escape.

Blocked.

Song Xiang drove his horse to squeeze left and right, but could not squeeze out a path. He looked back at the charging cavalry and felt that he could not escape. So Song Xiang made a fierce move and grabbed the spear beside the saddle.

Turning the horse's head, he faced the cavalry and shouted loudly: "Grandpa..."

At this time, the cavalry in the front row had already rushed in front of Song Xiang, but Song Xiang had no time to do the standard movement of raising the lance to fight, so he was stabbed under the horse by the oncoming cavalry. Next, these charging

The cavalry who entered the bandits simply used their spears to stab the backs of those horse bandits who had not had time to escape, reaping their lives.

In such a meeting, more than a dozen horse bandits were killed immediately. The cavalry were blocked by the empty horses without owners, and they wanted to slow down their horses, but at this time they heard the commander Chu behind them shouting

He said: "Catch them! Don't let anyone go! Chase them to the ends of the earth and kill them all."

Zug was in the third row of the cavalry. As soon as Song Xiang turned around, Zug saw his face. Finding that the horse bandits in front of him were the cavalry who escaped at that time, Zug immediately gritted his teeth and issued a killing order.

The cavalrymen who received the order did not hesitate to pursue the fleeing horse bandits.

There is no doubt about the outcome of this chase battle. The horses of the horse bandits were already used very hard, and the horse power of the cavalry in Zug was better preserved. In addition, there were so many cavalry, there was only one without one.

The mountain road was forked. So in the end, none of the horse bandits escaped the trap. And the cavalry suffered zero casualties.

When Zug and Hefei reunited, the captured miners immediately became desperate because they discovered that the cavalry that came again had basically brought over the heads of all their mountain owners.

After Hefei asked the miners to identify their heads, he learned that the leaders who led the miners had been captured by him and Zug. Hefei was also very smart. He identified some miners whose family members were also captured.

He took them as hostages and asked the miners to go to various mining areas to spread the word, asking all the miners to surrender to him, and also promised to ensure the safety of the surrendered miners and their families.

Most of the leaderless miners finally surrendered to He Fei. Just like that, the entire iron mine was seized.

But this victory made Zhou Xun, the commander-in-chief of the military operation, very dissatisfied. Two days later, Zhou Xun arrived with the main force. When he saw that the mining area had been completely recovered, he immediately became furious.

.

He yelled in front of all the officers: "You pigs! You dogs! I worked so hard to get here, but I didn't expect that this battle would be ended by you guys, who are worse than pigs and dogs! Then let me

What else are you doing?”
