Chapter Seventy-Five: Repelling the Rogue Cavalry
After Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi arrived at the battlefield with 200 cavalry, Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi glanced at each other, and tacitly took 200 cavalry directly to kill the Liukou cavalry who were chasing and killing the foot soldiers in Quyang County. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The more than 300 cavalry who chased and killed the infantry of Quyang County, saw that another cavalry of the official army rushed over, and immediately abandoned the Quyang County infantry who was crying for their father and mother, and under the leadership of several leaders, they met the 200 cavalry led by Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi.
These rogue cavalry under Zhang Ding have been fighting for many years, and their combat power is not weak, not long ago, they were still two hundred cavalry of the Yama Ridge bandits, if they were one-on-one, it would be difficult to defeat these rogue cavalry, but with Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi, the two fierce generals, the result would be different.
Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi were like two sharp knives, fiercely stabbing into the brigade of the rogue cavalry, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen rogue cavalry were killed by these two fierce generals, several of whom were the leaders of the rogue cavalry.
After the two groups of cavalry staggered, the originally more than 300 rogue cavalry suddenly decreased by more than 100 cavalry, while the cavalry led by Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi only lost more than 20 cavalry, and the rogue cavalry that died in the hands of Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi alone had more than 40 people.
Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi, as well as the remaining more than 170 cavalrymen, quickly reined in the reins of the war horse, and then turned the horse to face the Liukou cavalry.
"Kill—" Hua Xiong roared and took the lead in killing the rogue cavalry of less than two hundred people.
The cavalry of the two sides staggered again, and there were only seventy or eighty cavalry left in this group of rogue cavalry, and the cavalry led by Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi still had more than 140 horsemen, and the remaining seventy or eighty rogue cavalry had been killed by Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi, and they were no longer ready to continue to charge and kill, so they turned their horses and turned around, avoiding this fierce and vicious official cavalry, and fled directly.
At this time, Shen Jin and Ma Peng, the generals of the Liukou cavalry, had already led other Liukou cavalry to kill few people in the Quyang County cavalry, but Li Guan, the leading military captain of Quyang County, was not cleaned up by Shen Jin and Ma Peng.
Just when Li Guan couldn't resist the joint efforts of Shen Jin and Ma Peng, a school captain from a wealthy family in Quyang County saw Li Guan's crisis and urged Ma to join the war group.
When Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi led the cavalry to defeat another group of rogue cavalry, the captain from a wealthy family in Quyang County was stabbed through the chest by Shen Jin, and then Shen Jin's iron spear flung the body of the captain to the ground.
Li Guan saw that the captain who helped him was stabbed to death, his face changed, and he immediately made a false move against Ma Peng, and then turned his horse and fled in the direction of Liu Ji's team, Li Guan had already found that there were few more than 300 cavalry left in Quyang County, and if he persevered, maybe his life would be left here.
Ma Peng saw Li Guan fleeing, and was about to urge the horse to chase after him, when Shen Jin shouted: "Ma Peng, don't chase it, first deal with the cavalry of the official army in front of you!" ”
Ma Peng grabbed the reins of his horse, and only then did he find that the more than 300 cavalry that he had originally chased and killed the official army and the fleeing foot soldiers had less than 100 cavalry left, and they were scattered and retreated to a distance, and the cavalry of the official army who came up from behind was rushing towards him.
There were still nearly 500 rogue cavalry around Shen Jin and Ma Peng, so they faced more than 140 cavalry from Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi and met them fearlessly.
The two cavalry on both sides, one large and one small, quickly collided together, and when the cavalry of the two sides staggered, more than 100 rogue cavalry lost their lives again, and this time the cavalry led by Hua Xiong and Cheng Yi also lost nearly 40 people.
Although the rogue cavalry still had the advantage, what frightened Shen Jin, the general of the rogue cavalry, was that Ma Peng, another rogue cavalry general, was cut off by a member of the official army in the battle, and his head was cut off with a knife, and he died.
Moreover, this cavalry is different from the official cavalry that fought before, and the fight is more ferocious, and it seems that the official army team behind is the elite of the official army who came to help.
At this time, there was another cavalry of the official army in the distance, which slowly pressed over, Shen Jin immediately made a decision, and made a retreat gesture to the remnants of the cavalry under his command, and finally Shen Jin led about four hundred and fifty cavalry to retreat to the direction of Cangyuan City, including the seventy or eighty rogue cavalry who had been killed by Huaxiong and them before.
The cavalry that came slowly was another 300 cavalry under Liu Ji, led by Su Lie, Le Yi, Gong Du and You Tong.
Many of these three hundred cavalry are novices, and they can only ride horses, and if they fight, they will immediately be exposed, and they can only come slowly, but fortunately, they frightened Shen Jin, the general of the Liukou cavalry.
You must know that most of the losses of the Liukou cavalry were caused by more than 200 official cavalry who came up from behind, and now there are more official cavalry behind the support, where does Shen Jin dare to continue fighting, not to mention that Ma Peng, whose martial arts are not weaker than him, was cut off by a general of the official army, and Shen Jin already felt fear in his heart.
When Liu Ji came to the battlefield with the infantry and the convoy, Li Guan, the leading military captain of Quyang County, had already gathered the defeated soldiers again, and although the losses of the infantry in Quyang County were not small, Li Guan still collected nearly 1,200 people.
However, the losses of the cavalry in Quyang County were too great, and only more than 20 of the more than 300 cavalry remained, and several captains from wealthy families in Quyang County were all killed.
The staff member surnamed Sun was not harmed, and when he saw Liu Ji coming over with a large group of men and horses, he hurriedly walked to the front of Liu Ji's mount, and said respectfully: "Thank you Captain Liu for your help, otherwise our troops and horses in Quyang County will be directly defeated by the cavalry of the Liukou!" ”
Li Guan, who was following Sun Staff, was no longer rampant in the face of Liu Ji, and said to Liu Ji with his fists: "Thank you Captain Liu for sending cavalry in time, otherwise this army of our soldiers and horses in Quyang County will be finished!" ”
Liu Ji was depressed at this time because he had lost nearly a hundred cavalry in the first battle, and when he heard the words of Sun Staff and Li Guan, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "It seems that Zhang Ding, the dragon is really not simple, just one cavalry attack has brought us such a big loss, it seems that this time I want to relieve the siege of Cangyuan City, if I don't get it, I have to accompany the old Ben, alas, this deal is a big loss." ”
Li Guan frowned and wanted to say something, but he was preemptively said by Staff Sun: "Captain Liu, now that the Liukou cavalry has been defeated by your cavalry, will we continue to advance towards Cangyuan City next?" ”
Immediately, Sun Gong's staff also gave Li Guan a look, meaning to tell Li Guan not to talk nonsense, otherwise if he annoyed Liu Ji now, then there would be no one to rescue Cangyuan City, and with the defeat of the remnants of Quyang County, it would be difficult to rescue Cangyuan City.
Liu Ji waved his hand and said, "Don't worry! Now that I have received the things ordered by Zhao County, I will definitely rescue Cangyuan City! I asked my soldiers to clean up the battlefield here, and immediately set off for Cangyuan City! ”
