The cavalry under Lu Bu is very strong, and Liu Zheng has seen many cavalry, such as the cavalry under Cao Cao, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Dong Zhuo, and even those Karasuma cavalry in Youzhou.

Many of these cavalrymen were brave and good at fighting.

Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Iron Cavalry rushed up in the battle, and its power was undoubtedly more powerful than these Bingzhou wolf cavalry.

However, the soldiers on these wolf horses were obviously more fierce than the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Moreover, without heavy armor protection, the soldiers on the horses are also more agile and have stronger killing ability.

However, it is precisely because of this that without the protection of heavy armor, soldiers can easily be killed by a single round of archer shots.

Liu Zheng's archers have become a threat with great lethality, and only those archers need to be dealt with, and Lu Bu's side will have a place to fight.

The sound of clanging weapons is still ringing, and the soldiers and horses led by Zhou Cang have already lost thousands of people, and the cavalry charge has opened a small opening.

The formation arranged by Zhou Cang was dismantled, but after the opening was torn open, new soldiers would soon fill in and repair the breakthrough, so that the cavalry could not directly rush into Liu Zheng's army.

At the same time, the position by the river is so large that it is impossible to fully launch the side-by-side charge of tens of thousands of cavalry, so the cavalry's attack around the rear is actually not so easy to achieve, and it is quickly blocked by the human wall.

Liu Zheng has been urging Huang Zhong's archers to release their arrows, and the arrows are shot round after round.

At the beginning, it could only inflict hundreds of casualties on Lu Bu's cavalry, but when the number of such shots increased, the casualties suddenly became larger.

After five rounds of shooting, the cavalry that clashed with Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and there were obviously many ownerless war horses running in all directions, and Lu Bu in the distance finally realized that this battle was not as easy as he imagined.

If the fight continues, the losses of the cavalry will not be small.

But there was no turning back from the bow, if Liu Zheng was not directly defeated in this battle, Lu Bu was afraid that it would be difficult to explain to Ding Yuan if he went back, so he could only bite the bullet.

But soon, after the reinforcements from Liu Zheng's side appeared, Lu Bu realized that this battle could not be continued.

When the boats of the Zulang Navy and the Zhou Tai Navy who rushed to hear the news gradually appeared on both sides of the river, the appearance of these dozens of warships aroused Lu Bu's vigilance.

"Damn, Liu Zheng's reinforcements are here."

Thinking that there were thousands of enemy troops on the warship, and the battle by the river could not be divided in a short period of time, and Lu Bu had no other soldiers and horses, only 20,000 cavalry, it was not easy to stop Liu Zheng from so many people.

Even if Lu Bu was confident that he could defeat Liu Zheng and these horses, he was afraid that there would not be much left of these cavalry.

In order to kill Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses and let his men and horses be completely damaged, Lu Bu, who had no grievances with Liu Zheng, was of course reluctant.

He is not Liu Biao, he doesn't know how powerful and powerful Liu Zheng is, in Lu Bu's heart, he is actually not afraid of Liu Zheng, and even a little contemptuous.

So at this time, as soon as Lu Bu saw that the enemy army was coming to reinforce the army, he was not very willing to entangle with Liu Zheng here.

Anyway, his cavalry was in the confrontation with Liu Zheng, and several charges and kills had already caused some losses to Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses.

"The situation is not in our favor, Gao Shun, order the withdrawal of troops."

Lu Bu didn't want to fight anymore, so he turned his head and shouted to Gao Shun behind him.

Gao Shun, who was standing behind Lu Bu, had never been reused by Lu Bu, but Gao Shun was capable and loyal.

At this time, seeing that Lu Bu was about to retreat, Gao Shun immediately dissuaded him.

"My lord, the enemy army is weak at this time, we only need to let the men and horses on the flanks, increase the impact and break through the enemy's barrier, and then we can decide the victory or defeat in one battle.

Gao Shun's admonition did not get Lu Bu's consent, and what was ushered in was only Lu Bu's cynicism.

"Are you a general, or am I a general, and you dare to question my words?"

Lu Bu glanced at him, and that kind of kingly aura stared at Gao Shun's body, which immediately made Gao Shun's body tremble, and he immediately confessed.

"The last general will not dare."

"Since you don't dare, you still don't order the withdrawal of troops?"

Gao Shun hurriedly nodded yes, and immediately issued an order to retreat, and the sound of the horn immediately spread, and as soon as the cavalry who charged into battle heard the sound of the horn, they immediately turned their horses and began to retreat.

Tens of thousands of war horses, in the blink of an eye, retreated like a tide, leaving Liu Zheng's army.

The infantry around Liu Zheng naturally couldn't pursue, because the infantry couldn't catch up with the cavalry, only the archers were still shooting hard, wanting to shoot a few more enemies.

Seeing that his own reinforcements were coming, and Lu Bu's men and horses were retreating at this time, Liu Zheng was not in a hurry, anyway, he didn't plan to have a life-and-death battle with Lu Bu's men and horses at this time, as long as he could temporarily scare off Lu Bu's soldiers and horses and hold the pontoon bridge and ferry that had just been built, then Liu Zheng would be satisfied.

As the cavalry retreated, Lu Bu in the distance did not let Liu Zheng leave a few cruel words.

"Liu Zheng, let you go today, and fight again in the future!"

After speaking, Lu Bu didn't talk nonsense with Liu Zheng at all, and walked away directly.

The army of 20,000 came in a menacing manner and walked violently.

A vigorous war has just begun, and it is over.

Liu Zheng did not let his men pursue Lü Bu at all, but ordered Zhou Cang to clean up the battlefield, and at the same time strictly prevent Lü Bu from going and returning.

An hour later, after confirming that Lu Bu had left and gone to the nearest county town to meet Ding Yuan, Liu Zheng and the others began to discuss in the newly built military tent.

"Zhou Cang, tell me about the losses of your soldiers and horses."

Liu Zheng opened his mouth to ask about the gains and losses of this battle, and the reason why he didn't ask Huang Zhong was because most of Huang Zhong's people were in the rear, and there was not much loss, only Zhou Cang's people resisted the impact of the cavalry in front, and the casualties were still relatively huge.

Zhou Cang's face was slightly gloomy, but when he was asked by Liu Zheng, he immediately answered at Liu Zheng.

"My lord, our army has wounded more than 4,000 people and killed more than 1,000 brothers. Most of them were trampled to death by horses' hooves, and a few were killed by enemy spears through their chests. ”

Sure enough, after hearing Zhou Cang's thoughts on the number of dead and wounded, Liu Zheng's face was not only a little ugly.

"The cavalry is really powerful, even if these elite troops under our command still present a great disadvantage in the face of cavalry, I can't imagine the fear of those ordinary soldiers and horses in the face of cavalry."
