Chapter 9 The Great War Begins, and Jiaguan is slaughtered by the Tartars

In this way, as the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, Lin Hao has nothing to do every day.

But Liu Zhuang and Liu Wu were too busy.

There are zombie horses out hunting, the food in the cavalry camp is simply explosive, the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the dead war horses that hunt the Tartar scouts, all of which are meat sources.

With plenty of meat, the training can be more difficult.

Under such training, the changes in the cavalry camp can be said to be visible to the naked eye.

It is worth mentioning that there is no need for Lin Hao to take action in person, and the noble sons and daughters who came to gild in the Xiaoqi camp have all left by themselves.

The reason is very simple, as Lin Hao becomes the commander of the Xiaocai Battalion, and his record is too dazzling, he will inevitably become a sharp knife in the hands of Niu Jizong.

Whether it is attacking the city or gnawing the hard bones of the Tartars, it will make Niu Jizong think of Lin Hao's cavalry camp for the first time.

In this case, the cavalry camp is no longer a safe place, so these noble children will naturally want to slip away at the first time.

Of course, Niu Jizong is happy to see this, after all, if these guys stay in the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, it will greatly affect the combat power of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

Therefore, Niu Jizong directly handed over the entire Xiaocai Battalion to Lin Hao, and even asked him to appoint captains, generals, and so on.

Lin Hao was also not polite at all, and directly appointed three generals, namely Liu Wu, Liu Zhuang, and a military marquis named Chen Da.

Then he handed over all the affairs of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion to them, but in the end, he couldn't stand Liu Zhuang and Liu Wu's request, so Lin Hao would still do something.

For example, zombie horses, Lin Hao converted some more zombie horses at the request of Liu Wu and Liu Zhuang.

As his strength continued to increase, so did the number of zombie horses.

After all, compared to human zombies, the essence and blood purity required by this animal zombie will be much lower.

At the beginning, Lin Hao had more than a thousand zombie horses, and now with the growth of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the zombie horses in his hands can easily break through three thousand.

Lin Hao concentrated these three thousand zombie horses on the most elite cavalry, and the Black Feather Department, led by seventy zombie soldiers, directly obtained these three thousand zombie horses.

Zombie horses are extremely terrifying, not to mention facing ordinary war horses, and their ferocity can even fight tigers.

So with a strong physique and strength, Lin Hao directly arranged heavy armor for the zombie horse.

Da Zhou is poor, but in today's situation, as long as it is to meet the war, Da Zhou has to make up even if he smashes the pot and sells iron.

Therefore, after seeing the strong strength of the Black Feather Department, Niu Jizong showed his old face and forcibly brought Lin Hao heavy armor.

It is said that it is the armor left over from the Tiefutu of the previous dynasty, and Niu Jizong found someone to renovate and improve it, turning it into black armor.

Covered in a wrap, only the eyes were exposed.

Even the horses were wrapped in iron armor, and of course such a defensive power was unparalleled, but this weight also overwhelmed the cavalry.

But only the black feather is special, because of the strength of the zombie horse, this heavy armor is as light as a feather on the body of the zombie horse.

As for Lin Hao's request for a ghost face to cover it, it was for the sake of zombies.

Although the body of the zombie is also powerful, in fact, the most powerful zombie is when it reveals its true form.

Therefore, Lin Hao asked for armor to cover the whole body, including the face, naturally so that the zombie soldiers could use their real bodies to fight when fighting.

Finally, after the training of the cavalry camp had an effect, the war began.

The 200,000 iron cavalry of the Tartars came to the city, and the mighty men and horses brought a great sense of oppression to the entire northern border.

In previous years, when the Tartars came to fight the autumn wind, at most there were about tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and they usually rushed into the north to plunder some food and materials before leaving.

But this time, 200,000 troops were directly raised, and there was a feeling of taking the entire northern border.

In the camp tent in the army, Niu Jizong sat at the top, and Lin Hao, who was the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, also sat on one side.

Now in this military camp, Lin Hao's status has improved a lot, except for a few generals, that is, Lin Hao, the commander of the cavalry battalion, has the highest status.

After all, 30,000 in the army is a battalion, 100,000 is a town, except for the general of a town, no other battalion-level generals have a higher status than Lin Hao, after all, Lin Hao is the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, which is equivalent to the special forces of later generations.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Tartars are menacing this time, and they have even made sufficient preparations in the early stage, and their purpose is to take the entire northeastern Liaoning."

Niu Jizong said in a deep voice, it is really because the Great Zhou has declined a lot over the years, especially in recent years, because of the suspension of the double sun, which has led to chaos in the Great Zhou.

The Tartars have received a lot of benefits from the Great Zhou in recent years, and even occupied some border cities, and now it is normal to put the entire target on Liaodong.

"Hmph, these Tartars aren't afraid of cracking their teeth!"

"The last general asks for battle, I wait for more than 300,000 troops, will I still be afraid of them?"

The generals said so, but if you look closely, their eyes are somewhat evasive, what they are talking about at this time is all about the scene, in fact, they may not dare to take the initiative to attack.

Niu Jizong didn't care, anyway, in the face of this war, as long as he defended it, it would be a great achievement, and he never thought of taking the initiative.

At that moment, he directly ordered all troops and horses to guard the city, and then Lin Hao's cavalry battalion served as a mobile force, specializing in supporting and fighting Tartar reinforcements.

It can be said that Lin Hao's cavalry battalion has become the only team that needs to go out of the city to face the battle, which is also the biggest role of the Great Zhou for the cavalry.

As for the impossibility of confronting the Tartars head-on, after all, the Tartars have 200,000 cavalry, and even if they have more foot soldiers, how can they compete with the cavalry?

This is the current idea of the generals of the Great Zhou, but Lin Hao doesn't care about it at all, because he has the right to fight alone, which is actually in line with Lin Hao's idea.

After all, if he fought alone, he would be able to drink blood freely, and after coming to the Northern Battlefield, he had never lacked blood, and his strength improved rapidly, and Lin Hao was also addicted to this feeling.

........

Jiaguan is like a hell now.

An hour ago, the Tartars sent 30,000 soldiers and horses to attack Jiaguan, intending to capture Jiaguan and then threaten Zhenbei City from the side.

Therefore, after receiving Niu Jizong's order, Lin Hao directly rushed to Jiaguan with a 30,000 cavalry battalion, and wanted to support Jiaguan as quickly as possible.

But when Lin Hao and the others arrived, Jiaguan had already been breached.

"Da Da Da!"

The sound of horses' hooves resounded through the streets of Jiaguan, one of the northern strongholds, now in dilapidation, full of dilapidated houses and corpses.

Lin Hao's face was unprecedentedly heavy, he had slaughtered the Tartars in one fell way before, but at this time, he saw Jiaguan who was slaughtered by the Tartars, and Lin Hao realized how cruel and brutal the Tartars were.

"General Qiyu, there is no life left in the entire Jiaguan."

"The old man was beheaded on the spot, and the woman was tortured and toyed to death....."

Liu Wu paused, then pointed to the meat in the pot and said.

"The child was chopped and cooked alive, and now it is in front of everyone's eyes."

Listening to Liu Wu's words, many soldiers in the Xiaocai camp turned pale, of course they were disgusting, but there was fire flashing in their eyes.

Lin Hao took a deep breath, he wanted to stay out of it, but when he saw such a scene with his own eyes, he still felt a fire in his heart.
