Volume 1 Troubled Times Chapter 30 Thief, Come to War!

When Wang Rong returned to Fertile City, Wumo came to pay his respects. Looking at the obviously tanned old man, Wang Rong's heart was moved, he took Wumo's thick arms, came to the side and sat down, and then asked out loud: "Why, what happened to make you so anxious?" ”

Wu Mo handed a note to Wang Rong and said: "Duwei, Li Duyu Hou has sent news from Linhe, and found the Devil Man on the channel north of Linhe to Lu Yusai, about hundreds of people, Li Duyu Hou has not many people in his hands, so he can only defend the city in Linhe. ”

When Wang Rong heard the news, his heart tightened, and after stabilizing his mind, he spread out the note and looked aside, then looked at Wumo and asked; "How many soldiers are there in Fertile City now?"

Wu Mo said with a look of shame: "Du Lieutenant, they are all blamed for their incompetence, and so far they have only recruited two soldiers, both of whom were recruited from the herdsmen, and they brought their own war horses, pack horses, and horses, and I provided them with simple leather armor and saber shields. ”

Wang Rong thought about it in his heart, and then said: "It's okay, with the second team and the newly recruited two tithes plus the personal guards, eighty cavalry pawns are enough." Tower, go gather the men! ”

"Whoa!"

Wu Mo also got up and saluted and left at the right time, and he was going to the outside of the city to mobilize the two soldiers in the horse farming village.

The team assembled quickly, and when they arrived at the north gate of Fertile City, Wang Rong glanced at his soldiers and found that the number was wrong, among them forty or fifty people were obviously not in the army, and they were all dressed very casually, but there were still knives and bows.

Wang Rong asked suspiciously, "Why are there so many people?" Isn't there only eighty? ”

Yin He raised his hand with an embarrassed face and said to him: "Uh-, Du Wei, I have recruited five Shi servants from the city in the past few days, and these people heard that Du Wei was going to lead people to the north to fight the Bearded People, so they followed without saying a word. ”

Wang Rong looked at Yin He with a look of surprise, he didn't expect this guy to be quite powerful and recruited so many people. Don't think that fifty people are very few, for a city like Fertile Field, thirty or forty people is considered a lot.

Wang Rong nodded, and then said to the iron tower: "Let Meng Da and Meng Er go to lead this new seven shi, three for one person, and the extra one will follow your personal guards, and discipline them well." ”

"Whoa!" Tie Tower, Meng Da and Meng Er took the order with a smile, and they were all promoted.

More than 100 people led more than 300 horses to the north, and under Wang Biao's seat was a pack horse, which had good weight-bearing capacity, but poor impact and speed. Chiyun followed, walking leisurely, and behind Chiyun there was a horse carrying a suitcase. This is also in Shuofang County, in Guanzhong, it is a luxury to have two horses for the cavalry to die.

The speed of Wang Rong's team was very fast, and they quickly crossed the South River, and quickly moved north along the North River, and came to the bend near the Hip Block. The endless prairie does make people feel comfortable, but Wang Rong does not dare to take it lightly, the grave grass of careless people is one person high.

"Doo!" A feathered arrow flew through the air and nailed to the cowhide square shield held high by the tower. The power of the arrow was very great, and after shooting through the cowhide shield, the castration did not decrease, and the arrow squeezed forward fiercely for a short time, and it stopped at a distance of more than ten centimeters from Wang Rong.

Wang Rong looked at the trembling tail feathers of the arrows, quickly pulled out the bow and arrow from Hu Lu, and said with palpitations: "It's really good!" Encountered hard stubble! Damn it! ”

"Captain, this group of bearded people is not an ordinary herdsman!" A horseman from a herdsman's family in Woye City said loudly.

The battle outside Linhe City attracted Li Sujie's attention, and when he saw the banner of the Western Governor that Wang Rong was facing, he quickly summoned the soldiers in Linhe City to go out of the city to join Wang Rong. The two teams had gathered together, and had reached the size of two hundred people, and there were six or seven hundred horses.

After Li Sujie saw Wang Rong, he began to report the military situation: "Zhong Ming, this group of bearded people appeared from the Blockade, there are hundreds of people, all of them are cavalry. ”

Wang Rong looked into the distance expressionlessly, and said in a cold voice: "I have seen it." ”

Everyone looked together in the direction of the Blockade, where the dust was flying, and hundreds of cavalry were slowly approaching it.

"It's the Danlin cavalry!" Wu Mo said coldly, and his heart began to go up and down. Danlin is a powerful tribe of the Hu tribe in the north, and their leader, Shi Ren is the right commander of the Qiang Beard Kingdom, and he is as fierce and unusual as Wei Xuan.

Li Sujie was apprehensive in his heart, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhong Ming, how do you get it, we don't seem to be able to beat each other." ”

"If you're afraid of anything, give me a change of horse, and change the horse with complete harness!" Wang Rong's order made Li Sujie and Wu Mo's eyes light up, yes, they have Takahashi saddles, stirrups and horseshoes, and they use equipment to make up for their lack of experience.

More than 200 people immediately changed horses, complete harness so that those new herdsmen who have been on horseback for more than ten years have increased their confidence, only by experiencing it firsthand, can they feel the role of the harness, Wang Rong with more than 200 cavalry began to slowly approach the Danlin cavalry.

The sun in the sky exudes a scorching heat, and the abundant light makes the greenery of this grassland even stronger. The Danlin cavalry divided several groups of cavalry, galloped into the distance, and tentatively shot several rounds of arrows at Wang Rong's group, but they were all blocked by the prepared cavalry. Seeing that the sneak attack was ineffective, the cavalry turned around and returned to the group.

Wang Rong looked at the Danlin cavalry in the distance, and he knew that the big battle was about to begin. Soon Wang Rong heard the sound of a desolate trumpet blowing on the opposite side. Immediately afterwards, the sound of thunderous horses' hooves sounded, and this was the entire Danlin cavalry dispatched.

"Phew! - "Wang Rong blew the wooden whistle hanging on his chest, which is a unique herald instrument of the Yongjun army, and the sharp and piercing whistle can penetrate the battlefield and convey orders. The whistle sounded at hand,

"Accelerate! Array! The chiefs yelled at their men. In the accelerated march, the array of more than 200 cavalry soldiers slowly formed a non-standard conical formation, and at the front was Wang Rong's personal guard Shi as a model, and Li Sujie and Wu Mo restrained their subordinates to arrange the formation according to the model.

Twenty shis formed twenty small cones, and then formed a large cone, with a variety of weapons in the hands of the cavalry, the cavalry at the back of the formation had crossbows and bows and arrows in their hands, the cavalry in the middle of the formation held long knives and shields, and the cavalry at the front of the formation raised their spears and shields on their left arms.

Wang Rong's group rushed towards the Danlin cavalry without stopping, causing a commotion in the Danlin cavalry, and the generals led by the bearded generals shouted loudly, and took the cavalry behind them to also start charging, and if they continued to jog like this, there would be no distance to charge.

Wang Rong did not pull out the saber, but held a wolf-patterned bow, put an armor-piercing arrow on the bow, when fifty meters away from the bad-bearded general, Wang Rong raised the wolf-patterned bow, pulled the bowstring, quickly released the arrow, and when the bowstring bounced back, it issued a "boom!" Ringing. The general on the opposite side reacted, but couldn't dodge, and stubbornly caught the armor-piercing arrow shot by Wang Rong with his face, and the sharp arrow pierced his face from his left cheek, penetrating his brain, and then revealing a cluster of bloody arrows from behind the skin, stringing his head with the skin. The death of the bearded general caused quite a commotion, and the front row of the Danlin cavalry fell into confusion and slowed down.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Hundreds of arrows rose from behind Wang Rong and landed in the chaotic Danlin cavalry, setting dozens of cavalry down their horses, while Wang Rong hung the wolf-patterned bow on the saddle, pulled out his saber "Ten Thousand Enemies", rushed to a Danlin cavalry, and slashed at it with a sword.

The same action appeared in the cavalry led by Wang Rong, the speed of the war horse made the weapons in the hands of the cavalry greatly powerful, and the guy Wumo waved the big knife in his hand, and swept the two Danlin cavalry off the horse.

The cavalry hedged, and once the horse was dropped, there was no second way to choose. The Danlin cavalry was indeed fierce, and without stirrups and Takahashi saddles, they still killed more than a dozen of Wang Rong's cavalry.

The sword in Wang Rong's hand was full of light, and each flash of sword light represented a Danlin cavalryman who was hacked to death or cut off his horse. The big knife in the iron tower's hand was used as a sledgehammer by him, and he smashed it all indiscriminately, and there was really a lot of gain.

The two cavalry quickly separated after hedging, swapping positions on both sides, and the Danlin cavalry used their best horse archery technique extremely insidiously when they separated, and the rain of arrows fell into Wang Rong's array, and more than a dozen soldiers were shot off their horses before they could dodge.

"Captain!" The tower saw that Wang Rong had been shot by three or four arrows, and he was eager to rush over.

Wang Rong waved his hand at him, looked down at the long arrow hanging diagonally on the armor, grinned, and said, "It's okay, these thieves tickle me for me." ”

Then, Wang Rong took the remaining cavalry to turn the horse's head, did not adjust the formation, and did not wait for the enemy to reorganize the formation, and directly accelerated and rushed forward. This surprise attack was fatal, and the cavalry of the western lieutenant directly collided head-on with the Danlin cavalry, and the first few rows of Danlin cavalry were hit at once. The entire battlefield turned into a big melee, and Wang Rong rushed left and right with his personal guards, killing dozens of Danlin cavalry. In the melee, the complete horse harness showed its power, and every slashing and stabbing attack of Wang Rong's cavalry was powerful, bringing great damage to the Danlin cavalry, even if it could not be killed, it could be knocked off the horse.

"Open!" Wang Rong held a saber and knocked down a Danlin cavalryman who was about to turn around and flee. This cavalryman was wearing iron armor, and he was still alive after falling off his horse. The tower on the side quickly drove the horse in, and the big knife in his hand smashed into the face of the bearded thief who was about to get up, and split his head in half with a single sword. Oh, I'll go and grab someone's head.

"Hey, Captain, it's a centurion!" The tower said quietly and excitedly.

"Count it in!" Wang Rong waved his saber, and had to find another target.

Soon the battle came to an end, and the Danlin cavalry had already lost one-third of their lives, and one-sixth of them fell to the ground and did not know whether they were alive or dead.

After Li Sujie and Wu Mo counted the casualties, they came to report: "Captain, in the battle just now, the brothers killed 25 people, and 10 people were seriously injured, and the living ones were all slightly injured. ”

As soon as the battle ended, Wang Rong didn't dare to remove his armor, so he could only sit on his horse and rest in more than 20 pounds of iron lumps. Hearing the report of the two, the mood was a little gloomy, this was just a skirmish, or with a complete set of horse harness, he could still lose thirty-five people, which shows the gap between his own side and the bearded people in equestrianism.

"Gather up the bodies of the fallen brothers, gather the scattered horses, and we will return to River City first." Wang Rong's order was quickly executed. The entire procession was almost a herd of horses, and thousands of horses marched mightily towards Riverside City.
