Seeing the black figure in the distance, Li Feng frowned, and said loudly again: "The whole army is on alert!" ”

It was the cavalry of the Northern King just now, and now it should not be the cavalry of the Northern King!

Therefore, Lin Xiuming thinks that this time it is most likely that the army of barbarians will come to take revenge.

However, just when the soldiers were ready to fight as if they were facing a great enemy, Li Feng opened his mouth and said: "General Lin, don't be nervous, this is also the prince's cavalry!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming and Zhou Yu were stunned.

How is this possible?

In such a poor place as Beijun, it is already unbelievable to be able to raise 5,000 heavy cavalry, and now Li Feng actually told them that Beiwang still has a cavalry!

Just when Lin Xiuming felt that his worldview was about to be subverted, the cavalry led by Wen Renlie had already come to them.

This time, the cavalry array led by Wen Renlie was even more shocking, because this time there were more than 5,000 cavalry.

Seeing such a huge group of heavy cavalry, Lin Xiuming and Zhou Yu, as well as the 70,000 soldiers of the imperial court, all stayed in place.

When this heavy cavalry of tens of thousands of people approached, the soldiers of the imperial court couldn't help but clench the weapons in their hands.

How much of a deterrent was the heavily armed cavalry?

Let's put it this way, in the history of Great Xia, there was once a record of 3,000 heavily armored cavalry defeating 100,000 peasant soldiers, and it was still the kind that chased others and cut it.

The soldiers' fear of hoplites was etched in their bones, especially on such flat ground.

If it is a city defense, it is difficult for the heavy cavalry to play a role, but once it is time for the two armies to face each other, it is different.

The hoplite cavalry charge the infantry can quickly charge the phalanx of the marchers, and once the infantry phalanx is out of order, the morale will plummet.

When two armies fight against each other, morale is very important, especially in hand-to-hand combat.

Lin Xiuming looked at the 10,000 hoplites in front of him dumbfounded, he was a general, and he could roughly estimate how many soldiers there were in a phalanx.

Even if Li Feng didn't tell him how many people there were in this heavy cavalry, Lin Xiuming probably estimated in his heart that there were at least 20,000 people in this heavy cavalry.

If you add those hoplites who left just now, there are already nearly 30,000 hoplites in Beijun!

This......

What did Beijun use to raise these 30,000 heavy cavalry?

How much silver does this cost?

Lin Xiuming also knew what soap and perfume were sold in Beiwangfu, and he also knew that these businesses made money, but no matter how much money he made, it was impossible to cultivate such a huge heavy cavalry so quickly, right?

The entire Great Xia Imperial Court only had more than 20,000 cavalry!

As a result, there are nearly 30,000 hoplites in North County alone!

If this is to say that the king of the north has no other thoughts, who believes this?

I am afraid that as soon as the news of the Northern County reaches the imperial court, the imperial court will garrison King Qi's fiefdom overnight to prevent the Northern King from going south, or take the Northern King's wife and concubines and children in Anping City to the capital as hostages overnight and monitor them.

The hoplite cavalry of the Northern King was much more deterrent than the 300,000-strong army of the barbarians.

The 300,000 barbarians are heading south, and at present, it seems that at most, they will occupy the northern county, and maybe they have reached some agreement with some families or princes in private, and they will not directly attack the core territory of Great Xia.

But if these tens of thousands of heavy cavalry of the Northern King go south, then his purpose is probably not one county, but the entire Great Xia!

As a person of the Eighth Prince, Zhou Yu felt cold sweat at this time, and he felt that he had come to Longtan Tiger's Den today.

He discovered the secret of the North King today, so he shouldn't be able to leave the North County, right?

At this time, the soldier next to Lin Xiuming suddenly stammered: "General...... General, you ...... Look over there! Good...... Lots of barbarian soldiers! ”

Lin Xiuming hurriedly looked up into the distance.

At this time, they found that the barbarian soldiers with their hands tied were escorted to their side by the soldiers of the North County.

At a glance, there is almost no end in sight.

At this time, the people once again remembered the results of the herald's report they had heard earlier in Yancheng.

Kill 200,000 barbarians......

100,000 barbarian soldiers captured......

This......

Is this possible......

It's true?

Oh, my God!

What a result!

North County is going to turn the sky upside down!

No, it should be said that the North King is going to turn the sky upside down!

Since the establishment of Great Xia, there has been no such result in foreign wars, they destroyed the Chen State, and in the largest battle of the Chen State, the soldiers of the Chen State were only 200,000!

And the barbarians are not soldiers of the Chen State!

The barbarians' combat power should be even more ferocious!

In the war between Great Xia and the barbarians, basically the barbarians were the attackers, while the Great Xia was only the defender, and every time Great Xia suffered heavy losses.

It's just a heavy loss, every time the war ends, when Daxia is about to counterattack, the barbarians take the army and pat their butts and leave, leaving no chance for the Daxia army to counterattack.

Now Beijun has not only defeated the 300,000 army of the barbarians, but even captured 100,000 soldiers of the barbarians!

Once this news is transmitted back to the imperial court, I am afraid that the capital will change!

At this time, the 70,000 soldiers of the imperial court did not dare to breathe, and they were all staring at the barbarian captives who were escorted.

The 100,000 barbarian captives walked in front of them for half an hour, of course, this was mainly because the soldiers of the Northern County were afraid that they would make trouble and separated them during the escort, so they wasted some time.

Seeing that the soldiers in front of him walked for half an hour before completely passing by them, Lin Xiuming and the 70,000 soldiers of the imperial court already understood that the results they had heard in the city earlier were true!

As Great Xia people, they should have felt joyful.

After all, this is the biggest victory ever won in the war against the barbarians.

But from the general to the lieutenant, to the soldiers below, no one smiled.

Just when Lin Xiuming and the imperial court soldiers were still in a daze, the sound of horses' hooves came from a hurry again in the distance.

I saw rows of dark shadows leaning over again.

Lin Xiuming's whole body was numb.

Tens of thousands of hoplites again!!

Where did so many hoplites come from in North County!

What is the King of the North doing!

Rebellion???

After Lin Xiuming's rough estimate, at least there are close to 50,000 hoplites in Beijun, these 50,000 hoplites, plus 100,000 slave soldiers captured by Beijun, and then Beijun recruits a little more ordinary soldiers, then Beijun has the strength to attack any dynasty.

For the time being, the maximum number of soldiers that can be mobilized by any dynasty is now around a million, but this million has considerable moisture.

The soldiers who can be used to fight are definitely not a million, and these soldiers in Beijun are real, especially these barbarian slave soldiers, they are simply perfect cannon fodder.

Lin Xiuming only had three words in his mind at this time - write an excerpt!

I'm going to write an excerpt tonight!

This force in Beijun is too large, and there is a risk of getting out of control, and it is necessary to let the imperial court know what happened in Beijun as soon as possible.

Of course, the results of the Northern County must also be known to the imperial court.

Therefore, Lin Xiuming would take the opportunity to pass on the results of the battle and use the Red Silk Courier to report what happened in Beijun to the imperial court.

As for whether the Northern King will let their red silk messenger return to the imperial court, it is difficult to say.

The king of the north had been pretending to be a waste in the past, and suddenly he was so blockbuster that he stopped pretending.

What does this mean?

It shows that others are full-fledged, and there is no need to pretend, and intercepting the red silk messenger of the imperial court is not a piece of cake.

Lin Xiuming even doubted that the Northern King would take advantage of this opportunity to cooperate with the Chu family, and then directly seek power and usurp the throne.
