Chapter 450: The Little Princess's First Prestige! 14
The little princess is establishing her authority for the first time! (14)
It has to be said that Luger also has some military talents.
Although he came with 50,000 troops, he did not act recklessly. Instead, he sent spies to carefully explore the situation near the pass.
In addition to the 3,000 cavalry patrolling the pass, Zhao Kaiyong arranged for another 2,000 infantry to be stationed in the pass area.
Knowing that the opponent only had 5,000 men and horses, Luge was secretly happy. He immediately ordered 20,000 men to serve as the vanguard, wrapped their hooves with cloth, and slowly approached with dark colors, and then launched a thunderous blow at the pass.
Twenty thousand versus five thousand, the result can be imagined.
That was not a war at all, but a massacre.
Facing the sturdy prairie cavalry holding sabers and wearing leather armor, the two thousand infantrymen who hurriedly fought had no power to fight back. Fortunately, the leader of these three thousand cavalry was somewhat distracted.
Knowing that they were defeated by a tough enemy, they immediately ordered them to flee.
The three thousand troops were quickly reduced to zero, and they returned to Wangguan City via different routes.
His decision was undoubtedly the right one, but it was a pity that the disparity with the opponent was too great. Moreover, his cavalry had only been patrolling in the Loulan area before, and they had never officially fought against the prairie cavalry. Compared with the arrogant and brave Red Flame Regiment,
The iron-blooded cavalry was missing by an unknown amount, so they did not escape the fate of being strangled.
Of course, some people were lucky enough to escape and finally brought the news to Wangguan City.
When Zhao Kaiyong jumped out of his warm bed and sat down to defend the mansion, it was already early morning the next day. He looked at the cavalryman kneeling on the ground with an arrow in his arm. His face was even darker than the sky outside.
gloomy.
"How many people are there on the other side?!"
The cavalryman lowered his face helplessly, "It's estimated to be ten thousand, or more!"
In such a chaotic environment, how could he tell how many people the other party suddenly had? He could only give a rough number.
"Ten thousand cavalry will beat you like this!" Zhao Jun, son of Zhao Kaiyong, stood up dissatisfied, "What a shame!"
"Jun'er!" Zhao Kaiyong shouted to his son in a deep voice, "Immediately send someone to investigate. Be sure to find out how many people there are on the other side. Also, order all infantry to guard the city carefully and prepare for war!"
In any case, he had stayed in the northwest county for more than ten years, and he had some understanding of the toughness of the cavalry on the grassland. He felt relieved knowing that the enemy might be coming menacingly this time.
When Zhao Kaiyong sent out spies to investigate, Chu Tianjiao in Loulan City had already received the news. However, the news was delivered by Long Xiang using the Xingying. Not only did he report on the pass, he also reported on the coach and the number of troops this time.
"Lu Ge, huh, I guess it's him!" Chu Tianjiao looked sideways at Dan beside him, took out his thumb and summoned the golden-eyed eagle inside, "You ride the golden-eyed eagle and rush over to help Long Xiang. Remember, no killing is allowed.
As long as we find a way to prevent those prairie cavalry from going to those small villages and towns to burn, kill and loot, that guy Zhao Kaiyong is not worthy of being buried with him by the people!"
Dan rode the golden-eyed eagle and left. Chu Tianjiao stood on the steps and looked at the sky in the direction of the pass. There was a sly smile on his thin lips, "Your Highness Luge, this time, you must accompany our General Zhao well."
Have fun, I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
