After Luo Zheng led the army into Zhongshan, except for the night garrison, he did not wantonly kill the Jizhou scholars along the way, but led 3,000 Xiliang iron horsemen all the way to the speed, and five days later passed Guangchang and entered the territory of Youzhou.

The further north you go, the more desolate it becomes.

Youzhou is a border fortress of the Han Dynasty, and whenever there are nomads from the north who go south to plunder, the society is often turbulent.

In the former Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although he immigrated to the border fortress on a large scale, but for hundreds of years, due to the very difficult living conditions, the population of the border area was only seen small, not much, and every day there were people who could not bear the suffering of the Xianbei people and plundered, and helped the old and the young to flee to the Central Plains.

The army went all the way north, and all they saw were dangerous mountains and wilderness, and it was often difficult to see people for dozens of miles.

Luo Zheng was happy with Zhao Yun, he was in a good mood all the way, and he pointed out the mountains and rivers with the military academies, and he was also very comfortable.

At this time, the Kwantung princes could not chase and intercept them, and they had already gone back to their respective homes.

Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zan originally wanted to avenge his younger brother Sun Zan and the three thousand Youyan cavalry, but when he chased to Hanchang, he learned that Luo Zheng had led the army north, and he couldn't catch up, so he had to lead the army out of Jizhou from Puyin, and went all the way north back to Youbeiping.

The princes begged for Dong, and the curtain came to an end.

Early August.

Luo Zheng led 3,000 cavalry into Daijun, passed through Lingqiu and Pingshu, went north to Gaoliu, and entered the desert from Gaoliu, galloping on the endless prairie, and there was no pursuer along the way.

The desert is lonely, and the sun sets over the long river.

On the vast prairie, more than 3,000 Xiliang cavalry seemed to be wild horses out of stiffness, galloping.

The first time I came to the Mobei grassland, everyone was broad-minded, and there was an inexplicable pride in their chests.

The grassland is as vast as the sky, there is nothing to block the view, and I am used to the steep mountains and rivers, and the first time I came to the endless grassland, everyone felt that their hearts seemed to be much more relaxed, and the feeling was indescribable.

The sky is blue, the wild mangs, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep.

When the golden glow is like fire and the remnant sun is slanting westward, the herdsmen on the grassland begin to drive their cattle and sheep back to the circle.

Suddenly, there was a faint thunderous hoof sound in the distance.

There are as many horses as sheep on the grassland, and the herdsmen have long been accustomed to this sound, and they do not think it is strange.

Soon, however, someone noticed that something was wrong.

When a black line appeared in sight, a herdsman pointed to the distance and shouted, "Cavalry, it's a brigade of cavalry." ”

An experienced herdsman shouted, "At least three thousand horsemen." ”

The herders were surprised, but they were not alarmed.

This place is not far from the Danhan Mountain of the old Xianbei camp in the middle, and the cavalry can reach it in a day with light equipment, and although those damn Wuhuan people are some wolf cubs who are not well fed, they dare not come here to rob the Xianbei people.

More than 3,000 cavalry lined up on the vast prairie and galloped forward all over the mountains.

Soon, the herdsmen saw the cavalry clearly.

"It's not good, it's Han."

After seeing who was coming, Xianbei people immediately panicked.

Since the Yongxing period of Emperor Huan, Tanshi Huai unified the desert, after the establishment of the Xianbei royal court, the Xianbei people who became stronger and stronger continued to drive south, perennial into the Han Dynasty, from the second year of Yongshou to the Guanghe period of more than 20 years, the Xianbei people in the north of the desert were all the time in the strict zhòng threatened the Han court, until the death of Tanshi Huai, Xianbei was inferior, this situation was alleviated.

And the Xianbei people and the Han people also formed an inextricable blood feud.

In the eyes of the Xianbei people, the Han people are like the cowardly sheep, who can only let the Xianbei people take what they want.

Although since the death of King Tanshihuai, the powerful Xianbei Empire has been in a state of division and strength, but every year after autumn, when the fat horses are strong, the Xianbei people will still habitually drive their troops south and plunder the northern states and counties of the Han Dynasty.

And the cowardly Han people never dared to step into the desert half a step.

Suddenly, more than 3,000 Xiliang iron riders appeared, making the Xianbei herdsmen unable to believe their eyes.

When did the Han people become so bold and dare to go to the Mobei grassland to walk their horses.

Despite their disbelief, the herders immediately picked up their herds of cattle, horses and sheep and rushed to the settlement five miles away.

In front of the Xiliang army, a small colonel came over with a horse and said to Luo Zheng: "General, the Xianbei people will go south to plunder the people of our Han border after the autumn, should we easily destroy a few Xianbei tribes?" ”

Luo Zheng rode and galloped, while glancing at the Xianbei herdsmen who were driving the sheep back quickly, shook his head and said, "Forget it, they are all women and children, what good is it to kill." ”

The little school said 'hey' and said no more.

After the sun set, the Xiliang cavalry camped under a small hill.

Although Luo Zheng did not embarrass the Xianbei herdsmen, he sent people to the nearest small Xianbei tribe, begged for hundreds of sheep to slaughter and eat meat, and at dawn the next day, the army rose from the camp and continued to march westward.

It wasn't until the Xiliang cavalry left that the Xianbei Xiaoluo Division, who had been worried, breathed a sigh of relief.

At noon, the army crossed the Jinquan Beach and prepared to cross the enemy water and march westward.

Although it has reached late autumn, the remnants of the autumn tiger land are still there.

More than 3,000 Xiliang cavalry took off their clothes and rushed into the shallow water by the river shirtless to drive away the heat and cool down.

The war horses that untied the rope were leisurely grazing by the river, which was very pleasant.

At this moment, there were suddenly faint shouts and screams from the north.

Zhao Yun listened attentively for a while, and said, "There are about two hundred horses." ”

Luo Zheng was surprised: "Zilong seems to be very familiar with the Xianbei people?" ”

Zhao Yundao: "In the past, when I served under the account of Lord Gongsun, I fought several battles with the Xianbei people. ”

Luo Zheng didn't want to pay attention to it, but he didn't want the voice to come this way.

After a short time, I saw a group of ragged refugees who looked like beggars running wildly on the grassland, and more than 200 Xianbei cavalry were chasing and killing behind them, like cats playing rats, shooting over the refugees of the same name from time to time, laughing wildly.

It wasn't until he found the Xiliang cavalry by the river that he stopped his horse.

At this time, the dozens of refugees in the place of escape were less than two arrows away from the Xiliang cavalry on the riverside.

Zhao Yun's eyesight is amazing, and he is also quite familiar with the matter of the side plug, and after just one glance, his eyes are fixed.

Luo Zheng asked, "Does Zilong know the origin of these refugees?" ”

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "It's a fugitive slave." ”

"Fugitive slaves?"

Luo Zheng was not familiar with the matter of Biansai, and he was very puzzled when he heard it.

Zhao Yun explained: "The people outside the fortress are barbaric, so they are good at raising slaves. In addition to robbing money and grain, they will also take away a large number of Han people, and bring them back to be assassinated as slaves, so that the Han people can engage in farming, animal husbandry and other labor, and kill if they want to kill, and they can be chopped if they want, which can be described as animal behavior. ”

Luo Zheng's eyes suddenly froze, "There is such a thing!" ”

Zhao Yun nodded and said, "The Han people who were captured by the Xianbei people are unwilling to be slaves, and they flee in large numbers every year, and they are called fugitive slaves by the Xianbei people. Although very few people can escape back to the Han realm, there are never a few refugees. ”

Luo Zheng's eyes were shockingly murderous, and he said fiercely: "With Han people as slaves, Xianbei people really deserve to die." ”

Zhao Yun deeply agreed: "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different. Xianbei people really deserve to die. ”

Xu Chuhu glared at him and said loudly: "Lord, do you want to kill this Xianbei cavalry?" ”

Luo Zheng let out a 'hmm' and shouted, "Zhao Yun listens to the order." ”

Zhao Yun hurriedly got up and said, "Yes." ”

Luo Zheng said: "Rate 500 cavalry, destroy this Xianbei cavalry." ”

"Yes."

Zhao Yun received the order, and then received the general order to go to order the troops.

Not long after, the five hundred Xiliang iron cavalry broke away from the main formation and quickly killed the more than two hundred Xianbei cavalry who were still waiting not far away.

Xu Chu watched Zhao Yun lead the troops away, and couldn't help but say 'hey', very unwilling.

"Second prince, the Han people have been killed."

In front of the Xianbei cavalry, a strong man hurriedly reminded the Xianbei boy in front of the Le Ma formation.

"It's just five hundred rides, what are you afraid of!"

The little prince pursed his lips and didn't take this group of Han cavalry in his eyes at all.

In the eyes of the Great Xianbei warriors, the Han people are the prey hunted by the Xianbei people, no matter how strong they are, it is impossible to get rid of the fate of the prey, if it were not for the large number of Han cavalry, he would have ordered to kill it.

However, only five hundred horses came, how could the little prince take it seriously.

Xianbei iron cavalry crisscrosses the desert, even the Xiongnu and Wuhuan people who were strong in the past are not Xianbei iron cavalry opponents, those Han people who are not much stronger than sheep, even if there are more people, how can they be the opponents of Xianbei iron cavalry.

"Ready, face with Prince Ben."

The second prince raised his saber and shouted, his god was majestic.

More than 200 Xianbei cavalrymen immediately raised their sabers and shouted, as if they were howling wolves at the moon.

In front of the Xiliang cavalry.

Zhao Yun controlled the horse in one hand, held a gun in the other, and galloped first.

Seeing that more than 200 Xianbei cavalry had actually killed, his eyes suddenly soared with an astonishing killing opportunity.

In the wilderness, two cavalry teams approached quickly, both sides in high spirits.

When there were still two hundred paces apart, Zhao Yun suddenly put the iron spear into the saddle, took a five-stone ox horn bow from the back of the saddle, and took out five wolf-tooth iron arrows from the quiver with his backhand.

In the sound of thunderbolts, the five thumb-thick wolf's teeth and iron arrows turned into five black dots, which flashed and disappeared.

In front of the Xianbei cavalry, the second prince and the four Xianbei people who rushed to the front instantly exploded, and before they could react, they were hit by an arrow in the throat at the same time, and they didn't snort, they just died and fell off the horse.

Two hundred paces apart, five arrows fired at the same time, each shooting one person, and all hitting the same part.

With such amazing archery skills, he almost looked at all the Xiliang cavalry stupidly.

"Good archery!"

On the shore of Qiushui, Luo Zheng was also dizzy and couldn't help but applaud loudly.

Five arrows in one bow, the arrows were not in vain, and all of them hit the throat.

Such amazing archery skills, let alone have seen it, and I have never even heard of it.

Xu Chu couldn't help but say 'hey', "I didn't expect Zhao Yun's archery skills to be so powerful, it's too late!" ”

The three thousand Xiliang soldiers even burst into applause like a landslide and a crack, almost wanting to turn the prairie upside down.

"Second Prince!"

More than 200 Xianbei cavalry all screamed in amazement, their eyes were about to split.

The thunderclap of bowstrings sounded again, and five Xianbei cavalrymen fell from their horses with arrows, and none of them missed.

Just grieved and angry, ready to kill this Han cavalry, to avenge the second prince of the Xianbei people saw such a miraculous amazing archery skills, they were immediately frightened, and the momentum of the charge was instantly frustrated.

At this moment, five hundred Xiliang cavalry had already rolled in.

Zhao Yunsui bowed back to the saddle, the iron spear had already come to his hand, and he took the lead in the Xianbei cavalry formation, the iron spear stabbed rapidly, and stabbed the three Xianbei cavalry off the horse in an instant.

Five hundred Xiliang cavalry, with Zhao Yun as a triangular arrow, followed behind, and rushed forward to kill.

By the time Zhao Yun led 500 cavalry to kill the Xianbei cavalry formation, more than 200 Xianbei cavalry had already died in battle.

As for the remaining dozens of horsemen, they had already been frightened and fled all over the mountains.
