With the sound of the trumpet, the two cavalry flew across the wilderness, approaching at an alarming speed, and then collided with each other without any fancy blows, like a high-speed stone projectile and an egg.

In an instant, the five hundred heavily armored cavalry were like a hard stone, directly smashing through the fragile shell of the egg, and rushed forward at an astonishing speed, smashing Yang Ding's five thousand cavalry into pieces, and could no longer maintain the formation.

At this time, the three thousand cavalry then killed, like a sharp boning steel knife, fiercely cut into the formation of Yang Dingjun, which was already chaotic by the heavy armored cavalry, and once again tore a bloody hole in the five thousand cavalry.

By the time Yan Xing led 3,000 cavalry to kill through the enemy formation, Yang Ding's 5,000 cavalry had fallen by more than 1,500 cavalry.

Just one charge caused nearly thirty percent of casualties.

This ratio is staggering, and the blow to the morale of the military is also fatal.

At the sound of a desolate trumpet, three thousand cavalry quickly assembled on the other side of the pass, ready to launch a second charge.

"How so?"

Yang Ding's eyes were blank, and his mouth was still trembling.

Seeing that thousands of cavalry were in chaos and no longer in formation, and even some cavalry had completely lost the courage to resist, regardless of the urging of the horses to flee for their lives, Yang Ding couldn't believe what happened in front of him.

The brave and combative Xiliang Iron Cavalry was defeated in this way, and it was defeated without suspense under the head-on decisive battle that occupied the advantage of troops. Such a result is tantamount to a slap in the face for Yang Ding, who has always been full of spirit and has never tasted failure, but this blow is inevitably a little too heavy.

Seeing that Luo Zheng's 3,000 cavalry had rushed over again, his thousands of cavalry were still in chaos. Yang Ding only felt that it was dark in front of him, and his body shook violently a few times, almost falling off the horse's back.

The winner is decided. The result is unmistakable.

Yan Xing launched a second charge, completely crushing the chaotic Yang Dingsuo's cavalry.

Two charges. The 5,000 cavalry of Yang Ding's department completely lost 2,000 cavalry.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Yang Ding's eyes were torn and he roared, trying his best to gather the chaotic cavalry and retreat into the mountain pass.

However, the army has been defeated, and where can it be gathered?

Yan Xing led 3,000 cavalry to rush and kill, but Yang Ding barely gathered less than 1,000 cavalry, but he did not dare to retreat into the open wilderness. Instead, they fled into the mountain pass in a hurry, retreating back and forth.

Because the black cavalry not far away had reached three miles away and was copying from Sanba.

Moreover, the army of the headquarters led by Duan Xuan is still in the mountain pass, even if Yang Ding only has a soldier left, he will never dare to leave Duan Xuan's army and flee alone, otherwise the crime of escaping from the battle is not something he can afford.

Soon, except for the nearly 1,000 cavalry that Yang Ding gathered and fled into the mountain pass, the rest of the 5,000 cavalry were almost completely wiped out under the outflanking army led by Luo Zheng himself, and only a few dozen miles protruded and fled for their lives.

Except for those who died in battle. More than 1,500 horsemen were still captured.

Luo Zheng left 500 horsemen to guard the captives, and soon came to the mountain pass.

"Lord!"

Yan Xing rode over and bowed on the horse's back.

Luo Zheng said 'um'. He smiled and said: "Duan Xuan's puppet is stupid enough, knowing that General Ben has more than 10,000 cavalry, but he still dares to send 5,000 cavalry to the front to deliver food to General Ben, he is really looking for death!" ”

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said: "It's no wonder that Duan Xuan, the army walks on the mountain road, how can there be no pioneer to open the way, otherwise it will be even worse if it is ambushed." It's just that Duan Xuan didn't expect the general's target to be the only five thousand cavalry under his command, and he didn't plan to ambush him in the mountains at all. And Duan Xuan is also a general, so he should not be so careless. Most likely it should be the general who commanded this cavalry to attack without authorization, which allowed the general to block the 5,000 cavalry in the mountain pass. Break it in one fell swoop. ”

Luo Zheng said happily: "This time, the five thousand cavalry that can defeat Duan Xuan will depend on Wen He's plan. It's really not that easy to ambush Duan Simmer. But. As long as the five thousand cavalry are killed, Duan Xuan will become a toothless tiger, and General Ben has a way to drag him to death on this Chen Cang trail and give Dong Zhuo's old thief a bloody lesson. ”

Jia Xu groaned and said: "It is not a long-term solution to raise the war with war, this plundering of the powerful gentry in Guanzhong has completely offended the gate valve in Guanzhong, and if the general takes Guanzhong in the future, he will inevitably encounter huge resistance." Therefore, in the next thought, unless it is absolutely necessary, the general should not plunder the Shi clan gate lords, otherwise every time a city is attacked, troops must be raised to attack, and the casualties of the soldiers under his command will inevitably be heavy, and even if they are forcibly captured, they will inevitably encounter many resistances, so that the general will have to send troops to defend the city from city to city, wasting a large number of troops to defend the occupied city, thus delaying the pace of foreign expansion. ”

Luo Zheng thought about it for a while, and then understood the key, and said awe-inspiringly: "Wen He's reminder is that General Ben is a little too taken for granted. Anyway, after cleaning up Duan Xuan this time, General Ben ordered that no more robbing the Shi clan gate lords should be made. ”

Jia Xu looked appreciative and casually complimented: "The general is wise!" ”

Luo Zheng waved his hand, frowned and said, "Wen He, don't be a sycophant, why does General Ben feel uncomfortable!" ”

"Hey, hey!"

Xu Chu, Yan Xing and other generals next to him couldn't help laughing, and then hurriedly held back.

Jia Xu didn't care at all, and said calmly: "The five thousand cavalry of Duan Xuan are almost completely wiped out today, just wait for Duan Xuan to lead the army out of this mountain range, and the general can give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, dare not enter the city, and drag him to death in this wilderness." ”

Luo Zheng said loudly: "What Wen He said is very much in line with my intentions, the key of the cavalry is to come and go like the wind, rushing for thousands of miles, as long as you keep the eight-character key of the enemy advancing and I retreating, and the enemy retreating and I advance, and do everything possible to attack and disturb, without 5,000 cavalry, see if Duan Xuan's puppet can escape back to Chencang smoothly, unless he takes the army to hide in the mouse hole, hahaha!" ”

The generals also laughed heartily.

Tiger Leaping Gorge.

Duan Xuan had just led the army into this treacherous ravine, and there were scouts galloping in front of him.

"Newspaper—"

It was still far away, and the scout Tanma opened his voice and shouted, "Three thousand Luo Zheng cavalry were found outside the mountain pass. General Yang Ding has led 5,000 cavalry to find out. ”

Duan Xuan's eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "How can there be only three thousand cavalry, and the rest of the army will be recruited?" ”

The scout galloped near. He gasped twice before he hurriedly replied, "I haven't found out the news yet!" ”

Duan Xuan's brows were twisted together. After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure out why Luo Zheng didn't choose to ambush on this mountain road, but why he appeared outside the mountain pass, which was really strange.

Also, there were only 3,000 cavalry outside the mountain pass, where did the rest of Luo Zheng's army go?

Duan Xuan is not Yang Ding, and he is deeply wary of Luo Zheng. Don't dare to be careless at all.

After thinking about it for a while, he said categorically: "Order the army to speed up the march and cross this mountain range as much as possible." ”

"Yes!"

The generals all surrendered their orders, immediately urged the horses to run, and personally went to urge the army to gallop.

However, as soon as the front army passed through the Guò Tiger Leaping Ridge, they heard a faint thunderclap in front of them, and it didn't take long for the shouts of killing and screams to come, Duan Xuan couldn't help but be taken aback, and asked anxiously. "Where do you shout about killing?"

"This, the last general doesn't know!"

The generals on the left and right were also puzzled, not knowing what had happened.

Not much. Ahead, another scout horse galloped forward.

Duan Xuan didn't wait for the scout scouts to rush closer, so he reined in the war horse and shouted, "What happened, why did you shout for killing?" ”

The scout Tanma hurriedly reined in his horse and said loudly: "Report, general, as soon as our army rushed out of the mountain pass, Luo Zheng's 3,000 cavalry rushed over, and General Yang Ding led 5,000 cavalry to fight with Luo Zheng's 3,000 cavalry!" ”

"What?"

Duan Xuan couldn't help but change color, and said sharply: "General Wuben will order." Yang Ding'an dared to fight with the enemy lightly, who gave him such a bold son. The main force of Luo Zheng's army has not appeared, how can he be so careless about the enemy. ”

"Uh......"

The scout cavalry choked. I don't know how to answer.

He's just an errand talker, how can this kind of thing be interjected.

Seeing that Duan Xuan was furious, he was suddenly frightened, and he didn't know what to do.

Duan Xuan's face was pale, and he said: "Order, march at full speed, be sure to cross the mountains as much as possible." ”

"Order!"

A herald had already answered the order loudly and urged the horse to gallop down.

The speed of the march increased again, and the army of 15,000 stretched out in a long procession, and the sword and axe soldiers in the front had already run on the mountain road with long legs, and the mules and horses pulling the carts were also in the shouts of the soldiers, spitting white mist, rising up with four hooves, pulling carts to run on the uneven mountain roads, and from time to time ordnance was shaken off the frame.

However, before he could run more than three miles, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves in front of him.

Duan Xuan hurriedly stopped to watch, and saw Yang Ding leading less than a thousand cavalry to flee in panic, and the original majestic five thousand Xiliang cavalry not only had less than a thousand cavalry left at this time, but also lost their armor one by one, panicking like a lost dog.

It looked like a frightened flock of sheep, as if a tiger was chasing after it.

"This ......"

Duan Xuan was stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

The rest of the generals were also stunned, and their mouths opened wide in disbelief.

Some generals thought they were dazzled, so they rubbed their eyes vigorously, but they didn't dazzle, but they were real.

"General!"

Yang Ding urged the horse to run over, turned over and fell to the ground, not daring to raise his head.

Duan Xuan came back to his senses at this time, his face twitched fiercely, and he pointed to the cavalry not far away, which was less than a thousand, all of them were as dejected as their father's mother, and said in a trembling voice: "What's the matter, what about the five thousand cavalry of General Ben?" ”

"General!"

Yang Ding let out a sad cry and sobbed: "Luo Zheng is too cunning, there are not only three thousand cavalry outside the mountain pass, but the main force of Luo Zheng's cavalry is also outside, just ten miles away. The last general wanted to break through the 3,000 cavalry in front of Shankouzi and clear the way for the general's army. ”

"You ......"

Duan Xuanqi's mouth trembled, his head and fingers trembled, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

The rest of the generals also had dark faces, and there was anger and undisguised disdain in their eyes when they looked at Yang Ding.

Yang Ding snorted and cried, crying while secretly looking at Duan Xuan.

This time, 5,000 cavalry were folded, and only less than 1,000 remnants were left, and the consequences were too severe.

Even his uncle Yang Biao, who is very arrogant, probably can't save him.

Even if Duan Xuan beheaded him, it would definitely not be an exaggeration.

Yang Ding couldn't help but worry, in order to survive at this time, where could he take care of anything else, even if Duan Xuan was furious and rushed to the top door, he didn't even give him a chance to distinguish, and directly ordered someone to pull him down and cut him down.

"Come on, pull this waste down to General Ben and cut it down!"

Duan Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, his face instantly became extremely hideous, and he roared.

"Yes."

The two pro-soldiers immediately pounced and wanted to take Yang Ding away.

"Ah, the general spares his life!"

Yang Ding's soul was scattered, and he shouted heartbreakingly: "The general spares his life, the last general is guilty, the general is guilty, wow, please look at the face of the general's uncle, spare the general's life!" ”

The generals looked at each other coldly, and no one pleaded.

The five thousand cavalry were gone, and only a thousand remnants of the cavalry fled back, and everyone was on fire in their hearts.

Duan Xuan's mouth trembled, his face was blue and purple, and now he was fighting very badly, if it weren't for the secret help of Taiwei Yang Biao, he would not have promoted and reused this Yang Ding. However, he didn't expect that Yang Ding was familiar with the book of soldiers and could be on his own with a little training, but in the end, he buried the only 5,000 cavalry under his command.

This price is too heavy to be borne by Duan Xuan.

Cavalry is no better than infantry, and the formation of cavalry requires many conditions.

It is not known how many times more difficult to develop a truly combat-effective cavalry than to train an infantryman.

The infantry only needs to recruit strong men for training, as long as they fight a few battles, eliminate some short-lived ones, and those who can survive will become veterans, and nothing will be wasted, at most they will consume some money and food, and some people will die.

This is not the case with cavalry, which has very strict conditions from organization to training.

Not to mention anything else, first of all, the cavalry is not simply able to ride a horse, but to fight on horseback, but this article strictly limits the number of cavalry, and it is impossible to recruit strong men at will like recruiting foot soldiers.

Secondly, the source of war horses is also the key to the formation of cavalry.

Although the Xiliang cavalry is fierce and good at fighting, the cavalry under Dong Zhuo's command is only fifty or sixty thousand, and Liangzhou and Bingzhou, which produce war horses, are actually not under Dong Zhuo's control, and the source of war horses is strictly restricted.

For an army, cavalry is definitely a strategic force.

In particular, the opponents faced are all cavalry, in this case, if there is no cavalry, will completely lose the initiative in the war, relying only on more than 10,000 foot soldiers, can only be passively beaten, almost powerless to fight back.

Duan Xuan, as Dong Zhuo's confidant general, only got 5,000 cavalry when he left the town this time.

However, I didn't expect that Yang Ding would be buried.

Duan Xuanhuo rushed to the top door and shouted: "Come on, pull down and whip fifty." ”

The two pro-soldiers did not hesitate any longer, pounced on them and dragged Yang Ding away.

Duan Xuanwu's self-inflicted face twitched, ignoring Yang Ding's cry and begging for mercy.
