245 Courage

In Luoyang East, in the camp of the forward battalion, a group of people circled around Lin Jianyue's big black horse, and Li Jiyong, Qian Dazhuang and others rushed to hear the news.

The big black horse didn't eat anymore, but just lay on the ground, his head always held high and waited for something.

I have already seen a veterinarian, and I said that I am over sixteen years old, and I should have been injured on the battlefield before, and I have a hidden disease, and the deadline has come.

Everyone attaches great importance to the people and things around Lin Jianyue, not to mention the iconic dark horse of King Yan?

Lin Jianyue soon arrived.

From the moment Lin Jianyue stepped on the battlefield, the big black horse has been with him, nearly ten years have passed, and he has also witnessed Lin Jianyue's glory, which can be said to have a very special emotion in it, even if it was once a horse.

Lin Jianyue didn't want others to see the dead appearance of the big black horse, so he drove everyone away.

The big black horse's head was lowered, and his godless eyes just looked at Lin Jianyue, so reluctant.

Lin Jianyue knelt down, held its head in his arms, put his face against his face, gently stroked his mane with his hand to comfort, his heart was sour, his eyes were full of tears, and he had the tragic feeling of going to the east of the river to be a hero. I am not old, the big dark horse is old first, and I can no longer ride it on the field.

Today, the big dark horse is gone, Lin Jianyue is here to give it a ride, when will Hao Tianfeng, Liu Jiahao, Tie Qinglin, and they also leave? Loneliness and loneliness suddenly enveloped him.

Gaotang County, east of the Daimyo Mansion and west of Dezhou, because it is at the forefront, the main force of the Hu people is concentrated in the big city, and there is basically no one in the county, only a small number of people are still alive in the remote villages outside the city, and the rich and powerful have run to the north, but more are crossing the river to the Central Plains.

Since the start of the cavalry rotation training, in the first month, there were nearly 10,000 casualties, thousands of Hu people, and the battle loss ratio was nearly 3:1, and the second month was 1:1, which was already the third month.

Zhao Gang is the commander of a battalion under the command of the Guards Cavalry, with about 2,500 men, who have gone through more than ten contact battles near Gaotang County, and now there are only more than 1,800 people left.

A month has passed, and Zhao Gang has drawn the eighth trace on his arm armor, that is, he has killed eight Hu Qi with his own hands.

To be the commander of the battalion, it is naturally impossible to be a peasant, but a heavy infantry under Tie Qingfeng, who is brave in battle, takes the lead, and is also good at learning to be good at riding and shooting, quite strategic, and promoted quickly.

In the past, dozens or hundreds of people killed a few Hu people were big victories, but now he killed eight by himself, recalling the past, Zhao Gang felt a sense of pride in his heart.

It is said that the requirements of rotation training have been completed, and the number of kills far exceeds the losses, and he can already lead the troops across the river to go back to receive credit, but Zhao Gang does not want to go back yet.

As a guard cavalry, it is the most loyal and skilled unit under Lin Jianyue, and it is also the first to know that the big black horse of His Royal Highness King Yan is dead. Along the way, the heroic appearance of His Royal Highness riding a big black horse has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are many better and stronger white horses and green horses, which Zhao Gang does not look at, and has to seize a better big black horse to present to His Highness, which is not only Zhao Gang's obsession, but the obsession of the entire Guards Cavalry.

Sticky Han is the main opponent of the Guards Cavalry this time, the commander born in the cowardly Xue Army, who fought bravely and led nearly 10,000 people.

However, today's Han cavalry has grown up, that is, 10,000 people against 10,000 people, maybe there is still a gap in cavalry and archery, but the armor and weapons of the Han cavalry are superior, especially after Jiangnan is attached, the equipment on the body has reached the peak of the Han people since they have cavalry, and their courage is not lagging behind, Sticky Han did not take any advantage, Zhao Gang estimated that he only had three or four thousand people left.

The commander went back with the captured war horse, and he also knew about the big black horse, and Sticky Han rode a mighty and majestic big black horse, so he didn't forcibly order Zhao Gang to go back, and he knew Zhao Gang's ability, so he gave Zhao Gang all the remaining grain and grass, and the bow and crossbow were enough.

Zhao Gang knew that Sticky Han was going to run, and he knew where he was going, Menghu's faction was more serious, Sticky Han came out of Texas, it was impossible to go to the Daimyo's Mansion, Zhao Gang had already chosen the location of the ambush, after all, it was more to attack with less, and he had to ambush first and then attack head-on.

The cavalry attack and defense speed on the Great Plains is extremely fast, but there are not many people like Zhao Gang who pay special attention to the terrain and landforms. There is no need to scout, and the faint sound of horses' hooves in the sky says it all.

There are not many people camouflaged in ambush, just more than 300 people, all of them are cavalry to infantry, and there are no more people hidden on the snow on both sides of the Sticky Han Withdrawal Avenue, all of them have long bows and hard crossbows, Zhao Gang knows that although the ambush people are still equipped with machetes, after the ambush, under the impact of the cavalry, there will not be too many people who can survive, but no one is afraid.

In the woods not far away, Zhao Gang, who led 1,500 people to suit and hide, had a serious face, this was a real battle of life and death.

The bows and crossbows poured down like a torrential rain, not in one round, but in a row.

Although Sticky Han is brave and his subordinates are fine, he has not taken advantage of the fierce battles repeatedly, which is a great blow to the Menghu cavalry, who has always been invincible in the world of self-vision, and their morale is low, otherwise Sticky Han would not have returned to Texas in such a hurry to repair.

encountered a sneak attack, inevitably panicked, and the reaction was not fast enough, this is the effect that Zhao Gang needs to achieve.

Seeing that Sticky Han had already reacted and was ready to attack the ambush with the whole team, Zhao Gang waved the big gun in his hand, and there was only one sentence: "Guards, ten thousand victories!" ”

Although there were only 1,500 people, its momentum was like a thousand troops, moving forward, rushing straight to the Hu cavalry army from the side.

In addition to the ambush, there was actually such an elite cavalry on the side, and Sticky Han knew that he could only fight hard.

The remnant sun is like blood, the battlefield is full of stumps and broken arms, and the war horses are wailing.

Blood stained the robes red, Zhao Gang wiped his eyes covered by blood, there were only three or four hundred people left who could fight, and Sticky Han was about the same, and it was really the elite of the elite.

The pain in his leg and hand pierced his heart, Zhao Gang knew that he was not lightly injured, but looking at Sticky Han's appearance, it was not much better.

Under the repeated hedges, both sides were like hungry and injured trapped beasts, constantly staring at each other viciously.

"The Han generals opposite, you and I are evenly matched, and we are both good men, it's getting late today, it's better to go back and fight again in the future!"

Zhao Gang laughed loudly: "Since I stayed, I didn't plan to go back." You're scared, brothers, the Hu people are scared! ”

"Victory for the Guards! Long live Your Highness! ”

Even if you are tired, even if you are weak, it seems that there is an indescribable infusion of power, even if there are only a few hundred people, they are invincible, and no enemy can stop them, let alone an enemy who has been discouraged.

In order to protect the big black horse under the Sticky Han Seat, Zhao Gang was stubbornly hit by a bone and two scimitars, and only grabbed his hand intact, and before he fell unconscious, there was only one sentence: "Bring the horse back to His Highness!" ”

The commander was demoted, and even Hao Tianfeng was scolded severely, but the guards were still elated, and the other armies were extremely envious and aggrieved.
