In the evening, the sunset in Jizhou was extremely strong, and the red clouds in the sky seemed to be burning when it crossed the two-zhang high city of Zhen's Wu.

The gate of the dock fort was opened, and the head of the house, Zhen Yan, took the third brother Zhen Yao and led more than 100 servants to walk out of the dock fort for several miles to greet the man who dominated the western land.

On the hillside in the distance, the first to poke out a cavalry carrying a big flag, the black and red flag is still very conspicuous even if it is a thousand steps away, the cavalry put the big flag on the ground and rested for a while, turned over and dismounted, uncovered the water bladder, grabbed the mane of the horse with the wind, raised his head and drank a few sips of water, then raised his palm between his eyebrows and looked towards the dock fort, and saw a dense crowd of people standing not far from the dock, knowing that he was not going the wrong way, he turned over and got on the horse, carried the big flag, held the reins, and let the horse gallop over.

In these years, there has been a shortage of soldiers, and whoever goes out, even if he is a civilian, has to don't take a short knife on his waist to feel at ease. But the horseman carrying the banner galloped close to make the Zhen clan people amazed, this young man is obviously a long-time battle-hardened role, carrying a battle flag to bring people momentum as if there are thousands of troops and horses charging behind him, not to mention that this flag gallops on horseback and gallops for a ride is extremely heavy, if it is not for the strength of the person who can not carry the flag on the horse. But such a young young student with extraordinary strength was only wearing a single shirt and a short fight, without a head or pocket, just tied his long hair at random behind his head, and without a knife at his waist, he galloped all the way with a bag of water bladders.

Approaching, the neighing sound of Dawan horses made the Zhen man who liked horses extremely envious. If it weren't for the fact that this rider was carrying a flag symbolizing the Liang Kingdom, he was afraid that he would be taken away by people in such a swaggering hurry. Nowadays, good horses are hard to find, and all the princes need BMWs to reward their fierce generals who can fight well, and war horses are always in short supply, not to mention that this eight-foot-high horse is a purebred sweat horse at a glance, not a mixed war horse in the military horse farm in the Han Dynasty.

Zhen Yan glanced at it, and secretly said in his heart, if such a big BMW can be sold to him, it will be worth five hundred gold!

The appearance of this young horseman drinking and resting on the hillside was seen by everyone in the Zhen family, and they all felt a little funny, and even many people even had a gentle smile on their faces. But it was not until the first horse ran to the front that he felt murderous, and this horse went straight to the front, less than five steps in front of Zhen Yan, before he suddenly reined in the horse, and the dust brought up by the horse's hooves even swept away on Zhen Mi's clothes hidden behind Zhen Yan and pretending to be a maid.

Zhen Mi said in his heart, this person is so domineering!

"Bang!" With a sound on the ground, the battle flag fell to the ground, and the thick flagpole of the bowl fell straight to the ground, and the horseman did not dismount, but glanced at everyone with a cold face and contempt, and raised his head and asked, "Where is Zhen Yan?" ”

Isn't Lao Tzu standing in front of your face?

With a cough, Zhen Yan took two steps back. The horse galloped all the way, Zhen Yan was reluctant to retreat and show his timidity, but at this time he found that the eight-foot horse completely covered the rider's vision, and he couldn't see the rider's face at this angle, and the rider naturally couldn't see him. Zhen Yan then arched his hand and said: "Zhen is here, who is the driver?" ”

The rider held the flagpole, and when he saw that Zhen Yan was the middle-aged man who had just retreated step by step against him, he nodded and smiled, and the hostility in his heart dissipated. Just now, he felt that the Zhen family's Jizhou clan might not come out to greet the head of the family in person, so he was hostile. But now that he saw Zhen Yan personally come out to greet His Royal Highness King Liang, he naturally felt very happy, turned over and dismounted, and said: "I have seen the master of the Zhen family, and Wan Ning, the captain of the military academy of King Liang. ”

Still a school captain! Only then did the Zhen clan understand the arrogance of the young man in front of them, and they thought that he was an ordinary horseman, who became the captain of the two thousand stones of the Liang Kingdom at such a young age, and in the eyes of everyone, Wanning had his arrogant capital. If they knew the significance of the Liang King's Armored Army to the Liang Kingdom, they would be even more envious of Wanning's position as a captain.

If it were normal, it would be impossible for Wan Ning to become a lieutenant at such an age, but as the nephew of Yan Xing, the general of the Liang Kingdom, he treated him like a son, it was not strange at all.

"King Liang sent Captain Wan here, but there is something important to show me?" Why didn't this captain wear armor and not carry a knife, Zhen Yan asked respectfully despite some suspicions: "Wu Zhong has prepared a banquet, how many relatives did King Liang bring with him?" ”

Wan Ning, who took off his armor, felt uncomfortable, otherwise how could his gray mane run so fast just now, he was running around with more than two hundred catties of equipment on weekdays, and now he suddenly took off the burden on his body, and the mount naturally ran to Sahuan'er. Hearing Zhen Yan's question, he stretched out his hand and grabbed his hair Wan Ning said: "Originally, His Royal Highness didn't plan to bring soldiers and horses to show his respect for the Zhen family, but he couldn't resist the repeated persuasion of the generals, so there will be five hundred relatives who will come with him, and the head of the family doesn't have to worry, so he can arrange four hundred of them outside the dock fort without embarrassment...... These are the original words of the lord, and I was sent to tell the head of the Zhen family. ”

"Five hundred soldiers and horses? No more, no more, under the dock, it's fine. Hearing that Ma Yue only brought five hundred soldiers and horses, Zhen Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Liang Guo entered the battle this time with a large number of soldiers and horses, he was afraid that Ma Yue was a good and happy character, opened his mouth to bring thousands of soldiers and horses, and then he really had no place to place, if it was only five hundred people, it would be much easier to say, Wu Zhong's wine and food after more than ten days of shopping in various townships and towns was enough for a few days, and he said at the moment: "King Liang is gentle and unexpected, so is Captain Wan here to welcome King Liang or dock first to rest for a while?" ”

"Don't get in the way, has the Zhen family master seen the Liangguo army?" Wan Ning threw the reins to the relatives of the Zhen family behind him, stood with Zhen Yan and said: "King Liang specially ordered Wan to take off his armor and come to deliver the message, because King Liang's entourage are all elites of Liang Kingdom, and they must wear armor, so he ordered me to tell the head of the family to tell the people of Wuzhong in advance, don't wait for the soldiers and horses to come and scare the people of your mansion." ”

Zhen Yan who said Wan Ning was grateful and funny, King Liang was too careful, he thought that Ma Yue might give him a dismount when he first arrived, but looking at this situation, Ma Yue was a little too contemptuous of himself, how could anyone in Jizhou have never seen cavalry, even if he saw General Gongsun's white horse Yi, he would never be surprised, what did he say when he scared the people? waved his hand and smiled at the moment: "It's okay, it's okay, Captain Wan don't worry, it won't scare the Zhen family, please rest assured." ”

Do you think that you Liangguo soldiers and horses are some kind of flood beasts?

"It doesn't matter, I guess they're coming soon." Wan Ning shrugged his shoulders, half-knelt on the ground, pressed his palms on the ground, looked up and said, "Here they are!" ”

When the Zhen family saw Wan Ning's action, they knew that the soldiers and horses were coming, and they couldn't help but secretly marvel at themselves, they all straightened their necks and looked at the distant hillside and waited for the soldiers and horses of the Liang Kingdom to come here, and waited for a few breaths but did not see the slightest movement, they were all puzzled, Zhen Yan looked at Wan Ning with doubtful eyes, but saw Wan Ning looking at the distance with an old god on the ground, so he wanted to ask again.

It's just that before Zhen Yan's words could be spoken, he first felt the vibration under his feet, and then heard the sound of horses' hooves growing from small to large like a roar on the side of the hillside.

Is this the movement that 500 soldiers and horses can make?

When the same banner reappeared on the hillside a thousand steps away, everyone's eyes widened, and they finally understood what Wan Ning meant by 'the soldiers and horses of the Liang Kingdom will scare the people'. Those soldiers and horses couldn't see the appearance of people at all, like a group of evil ghosts rushing out under the nine springs, knights covered in black and red armor and mounts stuffed into iron like demonic beasts galloped towards one after another earth dragons, and the cavalry covered in the red armor seemed to be devils, and the red black daxu fluttering in the wind was breathtaking.

How could anyone be willing to fight such an army!

A thousand steps away, under the feet of those Liangguo horses carrying hundreds of catties of weight, it is only a few breaths away, if you say that from a distance, the Liangwang guards are fierce beasts, and it is even more frightening to see these murderous cavalry in the world.

Longdi is rich in lacquer, so whether it is a weapon or a battle armor in Liangguo, it is colored and sealed by lacquer, and it is in the arsenal to prevent insects. In this way, the armor of the Liang country is all dark, the king of Liang is only about 500 horsemen to guard, and the knights have galloped wildly to show the heroism of the men in the north of the western soil, and the two hundred catties of equipment and armor on the whole body of the horses between the gallops will be unobstructed. Each knight was armed with a five-length iron spear, two four-foot sabers and a two-and-a-half-foot short knife at his waist, the sheath of which was tightly tied around his waist by a leather belt. In addition to the belt, the iron armor of the knight's body is tightly connected by a leather belt and lacquered twine. In addition to swords and guns, each cavalryman had a high saddle tied to a wrap, a quilt and utensils, and a short crossbow on his back, and a bag of crossbows on his right waist. Among these cavalrymen, more than half of the horses carried arrows in their hips...... Zhen Yan quickly swept the knight's equipment with his gaze, with these equipment alone, if these five hundred horsemen were against the same number of white horse righteous servants, I am afraid that General Gongsun would suffer a big loss.

And these cavalry themselves do not live up to the elite of the world in Wan Ning's mouth, that is, in the galloping of horses, people like Zhen Yan who do not know about military affairs can see that these knights seem to be messy between their movements, but in fact they use a charging formation that he can't understand. Although the riders kept stretching their arms and changing their positions, the large array formed by the five hundred horsemen never changed, and the most terrifying five hundred horsemen were not in the same position at different times except for the dozens of cavalry guarding the royal car of King Liang in the center, but the entire large array always maintained the same appearance, both offensive and defensive.

Zhen Yan could even imagine that if they were not to greet King Liang's royal car, but to fight against the enemy, I am afraid that a thousand-person formation would have been killed by the thrown crossbow arrows at this distance.

At the speed of the wind, those cavalry steadily stopped the large array in front of the Zhen family, like a galloping horse suddenly stopped, silent. The Zhen people were really frightened, and everyone spoke, but the cavalry of the Liang Kingdom was forbidden, and no one made a sound, and for a while, only the heavy snort of the horses could be heard on the plain.

Suddenly, there was a sound of iron shoes hitting the ground armor, and after passing the heavy knights, Zhen Yan saw King Liang striding out of a man wearing luxurious light armor and ripped off the cloak with tiger skin on his back, the tiger's head was buckled on the man's left shoulder, the precision armor buckle was pulled away, and the cloak was thrown on the chariot, and he saw that the man who was not angry and arrogant walked calmly, and the rebellious cavalry on the road uncovered the demon face armor and fist hammer cuirass one by one and saluted, Splitting the wind and waves, he gave way and walked straight to Zhen Yan, who was at a loss.

Ma Yue waved his hand and made a gesture of please, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhen, please!" ”
