Chapter 266: Chopping melons and vegetables, reporting to Cheng Yu
"Kill !!"
Dressed in armor made of refined steel, the Youzhou Iron Cavalry, armed with an extremely sharp ring-headed broadsword, rushed into the plundering Goguryeo cavalry like a tiger out of a cage.
Although these Goguryeo cavalry were three times more numerical than this group of only thirty Youzhou iron cavalry, they did not expect the Youzhou cavalry to come so quickly, and they couldn't help but be a little hurried for a while.
However, these Goguryeo cavalry, who often faced the Xianbei cavalry on the border, were not vegetarians, and soon adjusted their formation on the wide streets and killed the Youzhou iron cavalry head-on.
The Goguryeo cavalry, who were preparing to enter the shops and people's homes to plunder, also quickly found their horses and prepared for battle.
Until now, these one hundred and twenty Youzhou cavalry disguised as Xianbei cavalry still believed that they could easily defeat the thirty Youzhou iron cavalry who had already risen in front of them, and then left safely with the looted property.
It's just that the next scene completely shatters their illusions!
"Ahh
"Ah——!h
In just a flash, thirty Youzhou iron cavalry took the lives of more than a dozen Goguryeo cavalry with their powerful impact and sharp ring-headed broadsword, and they only had time to let out a short scream!
"What!"
"How so?!"
The Goguryeo cavalry, who was lucky enough to escape from under the big sword, was surprised to find that their sabers were slashed on the armor of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry without causing a trace of damage!
"It's ......"
A stunned Goguryeo cavalryman was cut off his horse by the Youzhou iron cavalry general led by him, and he still had a look of disbelief before he died.
The numerical superiority of the Goguryeo cavalry was not exerted at all in the face of the well-equipped Youzhou iron cavalry.
And although the cement straight road in the county seat is wide, it can also accommodate eight cavalry to charge at the same time, and in the following battle, the Goguryeo cavalry was defeated and retreated by the Youzhou iron cavalry.
This team of Youzhou iron cavalry was also red-eyed at this time, relying on the armor made of hundreds of refined steel, and when facing the Goguryeo cavalry, they didn't care about defense at all, and every charge was a life-for-life madness in the eyes of the Goguryeo cavalry!
Although these Youzhou Iron Cavalry did not fight, their weekly training was arranged by Cheng Yu without any water.
Coupled with the abundance of horses and the meat and vegetables, the strength of the Youzhou Iron Horsemen who adopted the advanced training method provided by Lin Chuan has improved a lot compared to the beginning.
Cheng Yu found out that the Kebineng Department was purchasing a large amount of grain and salt during the exchange of markets, so he secretly raised his vigilance and arranged for the Youzhou iron cavalry to patrol back and forth between the counties of Youzhou, and by the way, let these cavalrymen vent their exuberant energy.
Unexpectedly, the arrangement that Cheng Yu did at the beginning finally gained today.
The Goguryeo cavalry, who were still struggling to support under the big sword of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry, had been frightened by the powerful combat power of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry at this time.
And they were not desperate for the Youzhou Iron Cavalry, but just for some property, so the remaining Goguryeo cavalry were no longer desperate, but waiting for an opportunity to break through.
Although the Youzhou iron cavalry was on the rise, there was still no way to completely intercept it when the Goguryeo cavalry only wanted to break through.
After a life-and-death struggle for about half an hour, it ended with the embarrassment of the Goguryeo cavalry.
After this battle, half of the Goguryeo cavalry fell under the sword-headed broadsword of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry.
The Youzhou Iron Cavalry faced the Goguryeo cavalry, which was three times the number of its own, and in a head-to-head duel, the Goguryeo cavalry was defeated and fled!
And there have been no casualties of their own!
The people who were hiding in the houses, after hearing the sound of horses' hooves gradually disappearing, also plucked up the courage to open the door to check.
After seeing that only Youzhou Iron Cavalry was left to bind the captives, these people slowly walked out of their homes.
In the past, almost all the people of Youzhou had been plundered by the Xianbei cavalry, so this time when they saw the Goguryeo cavalry disguised as the Xianbei cavalry, everyone fled for their lives very quickly.
The only people who were injured were sprained their feet while fleeing for their lives......
At this time, the people saw the Youzhou Iron Cavalry's victory over the 'Xianbei Cavalry', and immediately cheered.
There are brave people, and they still pick up the melons and fruits discarded when they fled for their lives on the ground, and then angrily smash them into the 'Xianbei cavalry' who died to the point that they can no longer die.
The Youzhou iron riders, who were surrounded by the people, were very happy and proud at this time.
Because there is no war in the Great Wei now, and the living standards of the people and the army have been greatly improved, the relationship between the people of Youzhou and the Youzhou army is also very harmonious.
Next, the people in the vicinity came over to help the Youzhou Iron Cavalry clean the streets, transport the corpses of the 'Xianbei Cavalry' out of the county seat, and clean the blood stains on the streets.
As for the horses left behind by these cavalry, they were brought back to the barracks by the Youzhou Iron Cavalry.
This cavalry encounter in Liaoxi County was soon reported to the garrison generals of Liaoxi County.
"What? The Goguryeo cavalry pretended to be the Xianbei cavalry to plunder in Liaoxi?! ”
After hearing the report of his subordinates, the generals stationed here stood up and stared at the subordinates who reported to him and confirmed seriously.
"General Huiyu, that's exactly the case! The patrol cavalry squad that fought with the Goguryeo cavalry has returned to the camp with the captured Goguryeo cavalry! ”
The subordinates did not dare to slack off, and quickly explained the general what had happened.
"People have already been caught? Attaboy! ”
As soon as the general heard that there were prisoners, he knew that it was the patrol cavalry squad that had won, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Where are the patrol cavalry and the captives? Now bring this to the past! ”
Then the general couldn't wait to know the ins and outs of the entire battle and see if he could ask Cheng Yu for credit.
There is no way, the cavalry in the peaceful era of the Great Wei Dynasty is so eager for military merit but can't get it.
Then the Youzhou Iron Cavalry General of Liaoxi County, after understanding the situation with the patrol team and personally interrogating the captured Goguryeo cavalry, immediately decided to ask Cheng Yu for the patrol team!
Youzhou Iron Cavalry fought against 12 Goguryeo with 30 people, not only killed half of the opponent's cavalry on the spot, and he himself was unscathed, but also protected the people of the county town without a single death!
This is too much for the Youzhou Iron Cavalry to have a long face, and the other patrol teams in Liaoxi County, after hearing about this incident, were envious and jealous to the point of madness.
The Youzhou Iron Cavalry General of Liaoxi County quickly wrote down the complete battle experience in a letter asking for merit, and quickly reported it to Cheng Yu.
The next day, the letter of merit from Liaoxi County was delivered to Cheng Yu.
After Cheng Yu received the letter of merit from Liaoxi County, a flame suddenly rose in his heart, and then it began to burn!
