Chapter 758: Minions of the Nation

The ministers wished Zhu Lingqi a victory, but Zhu Ling's expression still did not change much. Of course, Zhu Ling also looked down on the Southern Cavalry in his heart.

Because of this, there is no change.

Because in Zhu Ling's view, defeating the cavalry that had just been established in the Chu State was nothing at all.

His thoughts were the same as those of most people, thinking that Zhao Yun was too stupid to pull the newly established cavalry to the north. If 30,000 cavalry is combined with 100,000 infantry, it is okay.

But all the cavalry, huh. It's really underestimating their northern iron horse.

See inside the hall, the atmosphere is relaxed.

Xun Yuben's solemn face also showed a little smile. Of course, Xun Yu was not optimistic about Zhao Yun, when Cao Cao left Zhu Ling's 20,000 cavalry to defend Zhao Yun.

Xun Yu also felt that it was too wasteful. After all, to deal with Ma Teng and Han Sui, a large number of cavalry will be used, although the tiger and leopard cavalry is indeed elite, but after all, there are only 50,000 people.

With the addition of ordinary cavalry, only 110,000 are cavalry. Ma Teng and Han Sui may have nearly 200,000 cavalry. Bring more cavalry to increase your chances of victory.

Even if he stays to defend Zhao Yun, it is enough to leave 10,000 at most. In Xun Yu's opinion, Zhao Yun's newly built cavalry may have less than 10,000 combat strength.

Now, Zhu Ling just got rid of Zhao Yun and the 30,000 cavalry. On the one hand, killing one of the five top generals in Kou Feng's front and back, left and right, can greatly boost morale.

On the other hand, defeating Zhao Yun's 30,000 cavalry was equivalent to extinguishing Kou Feng's cavalry seedlings. If Kou Feng had been in the south, there would not have been decent cavalry in the next few years, or even ten years.

That way, they will have a lot of peace of mind.

In the end, after solving this cavalry early, Zhu Ling's 20,000 iron cavalry could free up their hands to support Cao Cao in the west, and concentrate the cavalry to deal with Ma Teng, and Han Sui.

It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

Although Zhao Yun's cavalry caused a lot of damage, in Xun Yu's heart, he felt that it was good. It's really a fat meat delivered to the door.

"General, go, go and come back quickly." Xun Yu nodded, and then said in a deep tone.

"No." Of course, Zhu Ling understood that this was for him to go back quickly, so that he could march to the west and solve Ma Teng and Han Sui as soon as possible. As promised, Zhu Ling also immediately said goodbye and left.

Soon after, Zhu Ling led 20,000 iron horsemen stationed outside the city, a total of 40,000 or 50,000 war horses, and headed towards Zhongmu with great momentum.

Xun Yu didn't go out to see him off, but in the official residence, he quietly felt the shock brought by the large-scale cavalry. It was a chilling feeling if it was the enemy's cavalry. If it is your own cavalry, it will give people a lot of confidence.

"It should be able to solve Zhao Yun in one battle, even if it can't be solved, it can also defeat most of Zhao Yun's cavalry." Xun Yu thought secretly in his heart.

At this moment, Zhao Yun, who was considered as vulnerable as tofu by Xun Yu, Zhu Ling and other Cao Wei ministers and generals. It is indeed leading the cavalry and causing trouble in the Zhongmu area.

Zhongmu is not far from Xu, nor is it close, and the cavalry can arrive in about a day.

Zhao Yun had already burned a lot of good things in the north, and the reason why the troops were nearby was, of course, to lure Zhu Ling's cavalry to attack. Not only did he have spies near Xudu, but he also had spies along the road.

As soon as Zhu Ling's army came out, he would be able to know it at the first time and attack it head-on. With the number of 30,000 troops, bullied Zhu Ling.

Because according to Zhao Yun's estimate, his cavalry may not be stronger than Zhu Ling in terms of quality, and the only strength is that it can bend the bow and shoot on horseback.

If the number of people is equal, it will definitely kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800. But now he has 30,000 people, just enough to bully Zhu Ling.

At this moment, Zhongmu City has already been broken by Zhao Yun. The original county order was dragged out by Zhao Yun and beheaded because of resolute resistance. Zhao Yun didn't bother to set up a county order.

He stationed the army in and around the city, and he rested in the city and waited for news.

Martial law was imposed in the city, and the people were not allowed to leave their homes.

Therefore, Zhongmu at this moment seems very lonely. And Zhao Yun himself was in the study of the original county magistrate's mansion, looking at the map.

Zhao Yun has been a general for decades, from Gongsun Zan at the beginning, to Liu Bei later, and now Kou Feng. The experience of leading soldiers is very rich.

But as a lone army, as a commander-in-chief, marched into the Central Plains. But it was the first time.

This feeling made Zhao Yun feel excited, but he also felt a great responsibility. I don't know if Zhao Yun himself has the qualifications to lead troops as an independent general, or if it is the first time to lead troops, Zhao Yun's brain is very flexible.

In addition, Zhao Yun is a bold person and a tendon. I think that in history, under the eyes of hundreds of thousands of troops of Cao Jun, Leng rescued Adou, the queen of Shu.

It's not enough to be bold, it's definitely a tendon.

In addition, Zhao Yun also had an example of blocking Cao's attack with dozens of horses.

is a very bold character.

He stared at the map with a very bright light in his eyes, but he had a little unexpected plan.

Originally, according to Xu Shu's order, Zhao Yun only needed to rob Cao Cao's grain, kill Zhu Ling's 20,000 cavalry, and then return to Wancheng with countless captured war horses.

It's a big win. The merit can increase Zhao Yun's fiefdom by 500 households.

Zhao Yun's title is currently the Pavilion Marquis among the princes, and there are only 300 feudal households. After such a war, it is worthy of Zhao Yun's previous exploits, and far surpasses.

It can be seen how great the credit is.

But at this moment, Zhao Yun's greed is insufficient.

Zhao Yun, who is eager to make contributions and bring a great victory to the Chu State, is very active in his thinking and is very, very bold.

He wants to do a big thing, a big thing that is enough to make Cao Cao's intestines ache. For the state of Chu, it is also a very, very big thing.

Enough to last for countless years.

But this thing will definitely not be possible without a bold person.

"General, there is news for you. Zhu Ling personally went out of the city, led a large number of cavalry, and began to march in the direction of Zhongmu. At this moment, it must be very close. ”

Outside the door, an adjutant general came to report.

Zhao Yun's spies were also cavalry, and Zhu Ling's army was also cavalry. After Zhu Ling's army left the city, although the spies were able to hear the news a little earlier, they also had a personal advantage, and they came back a little earlier than Zhu Ling's army.

But the advantage is not great. According to estimates, Zhu Ling's army should be dozens or even twenty or thirty miles away at this moment.

It's very close.

In fact, to guard against cavalry, the effect of the beacon tower is the best. But this is Cao Cao's territory, and Zhao Yun naturally won't have any beacons.

"Mobilize the army at once, and we will meet it." Zhao Yun's eyes flashed and said.

"No ambushes?" The adjutant general was taken aback and asked.

"The Central Plains is a plain, a land where cavalry can crisscross the country. It was difficult to find a place in the Central Plains where the cavalry could ambush, even if there were barely any. And it only weakened the superiority of our cavalry. Remember, this time we are going to overwhelm Zhu Ling with numbers and the means of shooting. The two armies faced each other, and the brave won a big victory. We can deal with them, confidence. Zhao Yun said in a deep voice.

"No." was taught by Zhao Yun for a while, and the deputy general promised to be taught.

Immediately, he was ordered to go out and mobilize the army.

After Zhao Yun stood for a moment, he suddenly ordered towards the outside of the door: "Come on, hold the lamp." ”

"No." Shortly after the promise, a guard walked in with a lamp. Zhao Yun personally tore off the map and burned it.

At the same time, it also burned a point marked by Zhao Yun on the map. His goal.

Immediately, Zhao Yun put on his helmet, picked up his spear, and walked out of the study. stepped on the war horse, led a group of fierce soldiers, and killed the 30,000 iron horsemen outside the city of Zhongmu.

Among the 30,000 cavalry, more than 20,000 were recruits, although because of the stirrups, they were very quick to get started with horsemanship, but after all, they lacked an iron-blooded temperament.

But so many days of attacking the county seat, as well as burning Tuntian.

Although these are small battles, small wars. But little by little, he has accumulated some of the temperament of a hundred battles. It looks very capable.

Zhao Yun was very satisfied with this, and rode his horse to the front and back of the cavalry.

Zhao Yun raised his spear and headed straight into the sky. He said loudly: "When I went out of the battle, I was ordered to do a big job. But these days, we're all petty fights. Then came the real big battle. If we win, we can make Chu **'s heart lift. For the Duke of Chu, throw his head and spill blood. How are you waiting? ”

"I am willing to be a minion for you." The cavalrymen couldn't help but boil their blood, and they roared in unison.

This group of cavalry are all the elites of the Chu State, and they are eager to serve the children of the good family of the Duke of Chu. Out of battle is just to love Kou Feng. I want to be a minion.

Minions are not a derogatory term. On the contrary, it is a very high rating.

Just like in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Shou is in the biography of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun. commented on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both national soldiers, while Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun are minions.

Some people think it's a derogatory term, but it's actually a high rating.

Because I don't know how many people are willing to be the king's minions, eagle dogs. Help the king to overcome the chaos and calm the world. If it is a metaphor, then the king is the hunter, and the eagle dog is the hunting dog that travels with him.

He is loyal and very capable.

This is the minions of the country.

"Hahaha, it's really my Chu country warrior." Zhao Yun looked happy and laughed heartily. The laughter is very hearty and bold.

Not long after, Zhao Yun burst into laughter, and the spear in his hand was retracted, lying horizontally behind his back. yelled: "Kill the enemy for the Duke of Chu and go out into battle." ”

With an order, Zhao Yun grabbed the horse's belly and took the lead in rushing out towards the east.

"Kill." The 30,000 cavalry roared one after another, harnessed their war horses, followed Zhao Yun's pace, and slaughtered towards the oncoming Zhu Ling army.

There is a large army in the south, why be afraid of the iron cavalry in the north?

The iron cavalry of Chu State can also be majestic and strong, and the horse will step on the Central Plains.
