Wherever the three hundred cavalry went, it shook like the earth shook the mountains, and the sound of horses' hooves shook people's hearts.

Wang Miyuan led his soldiers to speed up the horse, and without pausing at all, he directly broke through the formation outside the camp tent, and rushed out like this with thousands of Jiaozhi soldiers.

In such a momentum, in such an array, who can stop it?

At this moment, the Jiaozhi soldiers guarding outside the account only wish that the bows and arrows in their hands were shields, at least to stop the iron hooves of the cavalry, or the long knives that could block the Yongzhou soldiers.

But all this is in vain.

Thousands of horses' hooves trampled on people, and only the sound of broken bones, the screams of cross-toed soldiers, the sound of swords intersecting, the sound of human heads falling to the ground, all kinds of voices mixed together, made the hearts of those who stopped behind frightened.

For a moment, the thousand Jiaozhi soldiers guarding in front of the camp almost forgot that their mission was to intercept the Yongzhou defenders, not to tell them to return to the city, and just wanted to turn around and run away to a sheltered place.

How can military orders withstand the hearts of the people?

No one wants to be trampled to death by a horse's hooves.

No one thought that with their own flesh and blood, they could stop the charge of three hundred cavalry.

The Jiaozhi soldiers were also human beings, and they did not need any orders or military orders, and they had already scattered spontaneously, lest they would be accidentally caught up in the hooves of the cavalry.

In just a moment, Wang Miyuan and his entourage had already broken away from the Jiaozhi camp tent and galloped towards the city of Yongzhou.

When he was still five hundred steps away from the city gate, Wang Miyuan made people blow the horn he carried with him, and he loudly announced the code that had been agreed earlier.

The drawbridge descended, and the gates were wide open.

Without a trace of stagnation, the three hundred cavalry rushed back into the city with a gust of wind.

Gu Yanzhang stood under the city and saw that all the cavalry had returned, so he gave an order, and immediately closed the city gate.

As the drawbridge was pulled up little by little, the generals and soldiers who had been guarding the city gate began to cheer in unison, and the miscellaneous servants of the wounded and sick camp had already come forward to help the wounded cavalry down to heal their wounds.

The 300 cavalry left the city, and the 300 cavalry still came back, although more than 30 of them were seriously wounded, and more than 100 were slightly injured, but compared to the uncountable casualties in the Jiaozhi battalion, these are really nothing.

Wang Miyuan was covered in sweat and blood, most of which was the blood of the Jiaozhi soldiers, but there was also his own blood.

His wrists trembled, and he tried to sheath the long knife in his hand, but even his elbows were a little stiff, and he couldn't find a place to insert it back for a while.

The soldiers in the city saw it in their eyes, and they laughed loudly, and there were bursts of cheers under the city gates.

Wang Miyuan couldn't help grinning, he swept left and right, looked straight at one of the people, ignored the long knife in his hand, only let go of his hand, and let the knife fall to the ground, but he slowly went forward, and said to the person opposite: "Gouyuan, Wang is fortunate not to be dishonored!" ”

Gu Yanzhang stood in front of everyone, and heard Wang Miyuan's few words, but he felt that his heart had been hanging for a long time, and finally fell down.

He didn't reply, only took two steps forward, ignoring Wang Miyuan's sweat and blood, stretched out his right hand, and shook his fist with the other party.

Wang Miyuan had just finished killing the enemy all the way, his whole body was full of blood, and he asked loudly: "I just don't know where the messenger is now?" ”

Gu Yanzhang smiled, and replied in the same voice: "The messengers in the city have all left the city, and there are enough cavalry thirty escorts!" ”

Then he turned his head to the rest of the surrounding soldiers and said: "You have already seen the power of the cavalry, but there are only three hundred people, and you can already rush to the thieves' tent with a dead and wounded, and you will not be an army again!" Now my city has sent a messenger to Tanzhou, there are more than 2,000 horses in Hexi, the messenger holds Chen Jiedu's military order and order, draw the 2,000 Hexi horses to the south, Tanzhou to my Yongzhou, if you are fast horses, you can get it in less than half a month, as long as you defend the city for 20 days, wait for 2,000 cavalry to arrive, it is a thief who really has 100,000 troops, and what is there to fear! ”

He said loudly: "In the past, in Yanzhou, my Great Jin relied on thousands of cavalry to kill tens of thousands of Northern Barbarians, and now in Yongzhou, why can't I rely on 2,000 cavalry to kill 100,000 thieves?!" ”

Wang Miyuan and three hundred soldiers stood under the city wall, covered in blood and sweat, and although everyone in the city did not witness the scene in the Jiaozhi camp in the distance, they could already hear the screams and noises in the Jiaozhi camp in the distance, and at this time, they saw everyone returning with the whole army.

This one example is right in front of you, and it is more useful than verbal boasting about the might of the cavalry.

Compared with the reinforcements who didn't know when they would arrive, the 2,000 cavalry who were going to come to the aid of Tanzhou were right in front of them.

The city guards, who were still apprehensive in their hearts, were all demoralized.

Someone couldn't help but shout: "Kill the thief!" ”

The man standing next to him shouted.

"Kill the thief!!"

Immediately after, everyone in the city shouted in unison.

"Kill the thief !!"

This shout after shout did not frighten the people of the city.

The gates of the four cities were closed, and no one in the city could communicate information to the outside world, so Gu Yanzhang led people in the city early to publicize the news that the yamen was preparing to send troops to Tanzhou to draw military horses and use cavalry to repel Jiaozhi.

Today's cavalry out of the city seems to be very simple, but it is the result of his long-term planning.

The defenders of Yongzhou City and the Jiaozhi soldiers fought more than one battle outside the city, but the only one who won a big victory was Wang Miyuan.

Gu Yanzhang never felt that the ability of the other deputy generals in the counterinsurgency army to lead troops was not as good as Wang Miyuan.

He did not have fought in Quang Nam for several years like a few lieutenant generals, and he did not know much about the situation in Yongzhou, but this did not prevent him from laying out all the situations of several battles and comparing them the same.

In the end, the only thing that determines the combat power is only one thing left - horses.

The power of the cavalry, when Wang Miyuan took the soldiers out of the city and killed the toes, Gu Yanzhang already had a spectrum in his heart, but at this time he just confirmed this conclusion.

When the matter of his cavalry was mentioned, all the generals were very surprised.

The west road of Guangnan is mountainous and mountainous, and it has always been difficult to march south, and almost never thought of relying on cavalry, after all, most cavalry must be in the plains to be used.

However, after listening to Gu Yanzhang's analysis, everyone had to admit that with the terrain near Yongzhou, the ability of cavalry could be fully exerted.

However, although everyone has affirmed the miraculous effect of cavalry at present, although there are many Yunnan horses and meat horses in Yongzhou City, there are only a few hundred military horses, and it is really difficult to become a climate if you want to resist the enemy.

If there is no climate, then the climate is created.

Gu Yanzhang was transferred with the army, and when he went south along the way, he was familiar with the soldiers, grain, ordnance, and horses in various states and cities.

The more than 2,000 war horses in Tanzhou are Hexi military horses, which will not be sent to the capital until spring.

Chen Hao led his troops south, and he had the right to act cheaply, and requisitioned 2,000 soldiers and horses from Tanzhou, which was justified.

As long as there are 2,000 Hexi horses, they can use cavalry to charge and kill, and even more so in the case of the low combat power of Jiaozhi's individual soldiers, it is enough to turn the tide of a war, although they may not be able to defeat Jiaozhi, but it is not difficult to temporarily force them not to dare to move.

Gu Yanzhang weighed the situation in Yongzhou City and in the Jiaozhi camp, and quickly came up with the prototype of this operation.

Hanging the big basket several times to go down to the city, not to deceive the arrows of Jiaozhi - naturally, this side benefit is not very disliked in Yongzhou City - but more to paralyze the vigilance of Li Fuzai and others.

After the movement in the middle of the night in the Jiaozhi tent was no longer tense about the movement of Yongzhou City in the middle of the night, there was Wang Miyuan's action tonight.

The horses and elite soldiers were hung down through bamboo baskets, and there were soldiers at both gates.

Wang Miyuan brought the most soldiers here, and deliberately rushed to the Jiaozhi camp, the purpose was just to divert the attention of the thieves.

What really matters is the messenger holding Chen Hao's military orders and dispatch orders.

When Wang Mi was far away from the Jiaozhi camp and made a big fuss, the messengers outside the south gate had already rushed away like Tanzhou under the escort of dozens of cavalry.

In tonight's battle, the most important letter has been sent, and as long as the city guards for more than half a month, it can wait for the arrival of the new army.

And Wang Miyuan's big victory in the Jiaozhi camp not only hit the morale of the other party, but also raised the morale of the Yongzhou defenders, but also let the whole city know the power of the cavalry.

Since it is necessary to work together, and since it is necessary to fight the enemy all over the city, it is necessary to boost morale as much as possible.

Even among the state officials, many officials feel that it may be difficult to wait for reinforcements this time, and since this is the case, it is better to save themselves.

Let everyone know that although they can't wait for reinforcements from the DPRK and China, the city is not impossible, and the most important thing is it.

As long as the morale of the city does not fall, it is not an unattainable thing to hold out until the Tanzhou cavalry arrives, regardless of whether the 2,000 cavalry can fight back and forth, survive this time, and then wait for reinforcements from the DPRK and China.

Because the people in the city had been prepared, they heard the cheers of the soldiers at the city gate, and they were not only not frightened, but they were all relieved.

There was a cheer under the city gate, and the sound spread far outside the city, and even more so to the camp tent of Jiaozhi.

There was already a mourning in the Jiaozhi camp, and when I heard the cheers in Yongzhou City, the morale was even lowered.

Wang Miyuan's 300 cavalry actually killed less than 1,000 people at most, but in the end, the number of casualties in the camp was actually more than 5,000, which was still a figure obtained by excluding a lot of minor injuries that trampled on each other.

Wang Miyuan led his soldiers to trample and kill the enemy in the Jiaozhi tent, and when he saw that there was light, he killed wherever he wanted. When the camp saw this, they did not dare to raise torches to illuminate it, lest they attract the killing god.

There was no lighting, and nothing could be seen clearly, and the Jiaozhi soldiers were naturally more panicked, often encountering several teams of men and horses, and before they could confirm who the other party was, they had already slashed and killed themselves.

And in the end, the three hundred cavalry rushed out of the camp, and the cavalry ran over, trampling nearly a hundred soldiers to death, and hundreds of people were trampled on, and now in the tent, as long as they touched it lightly, it was a series of screams.
