Chapter 170: Bloodless Blades

"Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Tian Yu...... Tian Chou ...... Zhang He...... No, no, this doesn't count ......."

Yuan Xi rode on a horse, counting the generals under his command with a straight hand, and there were several names and surnames in the Three Kingdoms. Since Tian Yu returned to Shun, his more than 20 white horsemen have also returned to himself, and he has a small cavalry team for nothing.

Although Yuan Xi was lowered, Tian Yu still looked cold, looking rejecting people thousands of miles away, and then saw Yuan Xi looking at him, and arched his hand: "Second son, the batch of horses you bought must start domesticating as soon as possible, otherwise the cavalry will not have time to form." ”

Previously, in order to trick him into joining the gang, Yuan Xi exaggerated his strength, saying that he had bought 500 horses from the Xiongnu and was to form a complete cavalry team. This made Tian Yu's heart very excited, this man did not smile on the surface, and he would not show what he was thinking in his heart, but he was still quite eager to have his own cavalry team.

Yuan Xi was silent for a moment, feeling that it was a vain thing to tell him that five hundred horses were not possible at this time, so he had to say: "Guorang, don't worry, the horses will definitely be handed over to you in the end, but the main problem of our trip is land." You know, it costs a lot of ...... to raise a cavalry."

Zhao Yun, Tian Chou and others next to him sighed one after another.

Yuan Xi said: "What's wrong? You don't agree with me? Why sigh secretly? ”

Zhao Yun and the others, who knew the truth, couldn't bear to tell it, so they had to say: "The inferior people agree with the second son's statement. ”

Tian Yu had no choice but to say: "It took a long time for the cavalry to form combat power, and the subordinates were not in a hurry, but they were worried that these good horses would be wasted." ”

Yuan Xi said: "Don't worry, horses will not be wasted, but people may be wasted." If we continue to let our peasant friends become tenants under those big dogs, this is the biggest waste of resources. ”

They walked for a while, officially crossed the boundary of Jizhou, and arrived north of Yijing.

Lu Fang reminded beside him: "Second son, are we still going to Wenjiabao?" ”

In order to catch up with Tian Yu and his party, they took another road, so they stayed away from the direction of Wenjiabao. Lu Fang knew that Yuan Xi was bored with the five Wen brothers last time, and he was bent on going to the field to find the bad luck of the Wen family, but now he turned back and took a long detour.

Yuan Xi waved his hand and said, "Forget it, that group of people, let them continue to be proud." I am now the lord of Youzhou, and if I have this kind of battle with them, I will fall to the same level as them. ”

Lu Fang said: "The second son is really broad-minded. "This guy's ability to pat on the back is good.

Yuan Xi led the people all the way to the south, to the boundary of Yijing, between Yijing and Nanpi separated by a river, is the boundary between Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao before, the terrain here is flat, the land is fertile, but no one has cultivated it for a long time, and it is overgrown with thorns and weeds.

Yuan Xi gave an order, and all the common people began to join the labor, first burning this plain and burning the weeds on it to ashes, which was not only fast, but also used the ashes as nutrients for the soil. A fire burned all day, and in the evening, Yi Jing's guards came.

After Yuan Shao conquered Yijing, a force was left here to garrison. The general led by him is Zhao Rui under the command of Chun Yuqiong. Chun Yuqiong is in Yecheng at this time, and it is Zhao Rui who has the final say.

Zhao Rui and others got a report from someone in the city, saying that a group of people who didn't know where they came from burned fields in the south, and the number was quite large, there were more than 200 people. Surprised, he led the army to come, and when he looked at it from a distance, he saw many figures, and there were faint flags fluttering.

This person was really reckless, he didn't ask who it was, he first let his people line up in formation, blow the horn, and prepare to attack. He is used to fighting on the battlefield, he is extremely simple, and when he sees that the banner bento he doesn't know is the remnant of Gongsun Zhan, he wants to fight without saying a word.

When Zhao Rui blew the horn, the people on Yuan Xi's side also noticed that there were enemy troops, so they put down their farm tools and organized.

It is also strange that Yuan Xi was in a hurry to reclaim the land, and did not inform Yi Jing's defenders at all. In fact, just send someone to talk about it. But he was worried that these defenders would report to Yecheng and cause criticism. After all, these people in the Cui family are all staring at the fertile land of Youzhou, ready to get a piece of the pie, and once they get the news, they will come to ask him for land. So he raced against time, wanting to strike first, and when the wood was completed and the raw rice was cooked, this place would be a foregone conclusion.

Lu Fang found Yuan Xi in a hurry. Yuan Xi also put on his clothes at this time, and gathered with the crowd.

Lu Fangdao: "It depends on the situation that Yi Jing's defenders are going to charge us?" ”

Yuan Xiyi frowned and asked, "Do you know who the other party is?" How many people are there? Why do you line up without asking? ”

Lu Fangdao: "The other party lined up very quickly, and it seemed to be quite popular, with five hundred people. The first and second companies have been assembled, and the newly formed third company is still being assembled. ”

Yuan Xi said: "Send someone up and make it clear to them." What does it mean for one's own people to beat one's own people? ”

They were talking, when suddenly a drum beat sounded on the opposite side, and the beat of the drum pierced the air and resounded directly in everyone's hearts.

Yuan Xi couldn't help but scold: "It's all drumming......"

The drumming shows that the attack is officially launched, and this Zhao Rui is really "well-trained".

He rushed forward with his personal guards and Lu Fang and others, wanting to avoid such an absurd battle.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the front line, they only heard a cheer of "oh oh", and the people of the first and second companies were cheering collectively, while the newly formed third company next to them cheered even though they had not yet finished the formation. The cheers soared into the sky.

"What's going on?"

"The other party ran away!"

Yuan Xi only felt that the ground began to tremble, and Tian Yu led the White Horse Cavalry back in the distance.

It turned out that the other party beat the war drums, and the five hundred people scattered the formation and rushed towards Yuan Xi's side. But only halfway through, Tian Yu led the White Horse Cavalry to surprise from the side. These Yijing guards are also weak in combat effectiveness, far from being the first-line elite. was rushed by the cavalry like this, and the formation collapsed directly, and everyone dragged their weapons and ran directly in the direction of Yijing.

Speaking of which, they shouldn't be blamed, Bai Ma Yi was a fierce and brutal army in the legend, Gongsun Zhan and Yuan Shao fought for several years, and thousands of Yuan soldiers died at the hands of the White Horse Cavalry, and they had reached the point of being terrified. If it weren't for the fact that Lu Yi led the first camp to defeat the White Horse Cavalry, Yuan Shao would not have been able to conquer Yijing in one step.

Originally, I thought that the white horse righteousness had disappeared from the clouds, but who knew that these unjust cavalry appeared here again, and as soon as the horses' hooves sounded, these Yijing defenders trembled in their legs, and they did not dare to face the enemy head-on.

Yuan Xi happily greeted him and praised Tian Yu.

His second company is also an elite unit, and the speed of gathering is quite fast. The third company is a new recruit, and it is understandable to be slower. But Tian Yu's troops charged faster than the other party, and they could charge from the side to scare the other party away, which can be described as extremely fast.

However, Tian Yu was not satisfied with this, feeling that "it was just some miscellaneous soldiers". The cavalry in his mind was not used like this, if it hadn't happened suddenly, he would have been able to capture all these Yijing defenders.

Tian Chou next to him said: "Although I drove the other party away, I'm afraid there will be trouble next." ”

Yuan Xi said: "What do you say? ”

"When they saw the white-horse cavalry, they must have thought that we were the remnants of Gongsun, and when they returned, they were afraid that they would raise a large army to conquer us."

Yuan Xi frowned, this Tian Yu didn't make a move, as soon as he made a move, these people went back and passed it, I am afraid that even the defenders of Nanpi would be called over. This misunderstanding must be clarified quickly, otherwise his reclamation plan will be disrupted.
