"General?"

Zhang Liao's face turned cold.

"After the meal, each of you will go and check the war horses and reserve horses used," he ordered, "return to the account before the hour, and immediately turn off the lights as soon as you fight the fight, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law!" ”

Actually, it was hard to sleep that night.

They are in the north of the city, with Lu Lian's battalion and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding them, which is considered the safest place, but so what?

There was a firelight dangling outside, and shouts of killing came from afar.

There were drums of war that stayed all night.

Naturally, someone quietly got up, poked a cautious head out of the window hole, and looked out.

The large camp outside the North City Gate was in flames.

The houses inside the south gate were on fire.

Listen carefully.

He could hear the hysterical shouts of killing coming from a group of women coming together.

He could hear the collapse of the house as it burned in the raging fire.

A man rode past the outside of the camp, and as he ran, he shouted with a loud voice that his guards should be sent to guard the southern gates.

The voice looked like Liu Yuanjun's.

So one by one, the people of the state got up.

They heard everything but the military order for them to go to war.

Listen to those people's husbands, homeless people, and women, stand in front of them, and use an unfamiliar and clumsy posture to drive the Jizhou people back behind the fence.

Listening to the lord of the land of Qingxu guarding in front of them, he braved the arrows and stones, and led his last personal soldiers to charge.

They all stayed in this small and dark square, in this warm and safe hut that seemed to be cut apart and had nothing to do with the outside world, and listened to the chaotic and fierce music outside.

They heard the heart-rending howl of the woman before she died, and heard someone crying blood-like for the lord to withdraw from Zhecheng for the time being.

They waited a long time, and they all took it to heart.

Until the sound of a scorching bucket sounded.

Their general stood in the dim light of the day, his cloak and banner gently raised in the wind, staining his grim face with a murderous aura.

"Have you slept enough?"

The soldiers were stunned.

Their general's gaze was blazing, and it fell on each of them.

"Someone kept vigil for you and me, so that the night was peaceful."

When his question came out, it matched almost word for word in the mind of the soldier in front of him:

- What should I repay?

"Death should be rewarded!"

"Out of the city to meet the enemy!"

They are cavalry, almost the most expensive in the entire army, so the cavalry have a bit of a sense of superiority.

For example, if you challenge the loot, they have to pick it first, they have a large cost and a large overhead!

It is enough for the infantry to eat food, and the men of their battalion are to eat food, and the horses to eat grass;

The number of infantry and men is enough to be one, and the number of their cavalry is one to three or even higher;

The infantry hurried on two legs, and when they arrived at the camp, they had to unload their baggage, drive wooden stakes, erect fences, and enclose their wagons; Naturally, the cavalrymen rode on their horses when they were on their way, and when they arrived at camp, they only ran to serve their horses, and they ignored all those trivial matters;

In short, they need to be served!

They are also very reasonable: if you find a farmer with a stick in his hand, he will be an infantryman, and if he is pulled out to fight for a few days, he can be called a veteran, but do you dare to find a farmer and let him be a cavalryman? Will he be able to climb on a horse? Can you sit still? Can you bend your bow and shoot arrows on a horse, and can you turn quickly to avoid the rain of arrows on the opposite side?

Can he carry the horse lance and poke the stupid military general without a helmet on the opposite side with precision?

Therefore, the cavalry should receive the highest salary, enjoy the best living conditions, and have the smoothest promotion path.

Therefore, there are not many things that can move the cavalry, they are arrogant, and they will take any treatment for granted.

But this is a different time.

This is not a "treatment", but a "sacrifice", like Wu Qi sucking gangrene - if your boss is burned in the base camp, the city is in danger, and even when her lord personally goes into battle to kill the enemy, she does not use you, but patiently saves you to the end, what does she expect from you?

So it's not just moving, it's a sense of sacredness in their hearts!

Hundreds of thousands of people threw themselves into this huge battlefield, and the vast majority of them were fighting meaninglessly and dying senselessly, only they were different!

Their lives and deaths are meaningful!

They can decide the outcome of this battle!

They must decide the outcome of this battle!

When the thought came to the horsemen's minds, the morning light fell on their shoulders.

The moment they spurred their horses and rushed into the battlefield, the sun rose again over the land.

The speed of the cavalry was always beyond imagination.

They were so swift that they only gave the herald time, but they were unwilling to show the same mercy to the soldiers who stayed up all night.

Before the shield soldiers in the first row could raise their shields to protect their torsos, the arrows rained down!

The crossbowmen in the second row were still hurriedly reloading their crossbows, but their hands were shaking uncontrollably!

When the spearmen of the third row hurriedly bent down and picked up the spears from the ground, the horsemen's hooves were already in sight!

…… Those cavalrymen weren't in a state of fighting for a day and a night! At least their horses are clearly not!

They are really recuperated and ready to work, and at this moment, wielding a horse lance, like the light of the sky, broke through the dark clouds, and rushed into the military formation of the Jizhou people.

And Xun Chen on the high platform saw it very clearly - when the people of Bingzhou rushed into the elite division that should be invincible in the world, there were even soldiers who carried the cloth bags they made of military uniforms on their backs before facing the enemy!

Is there any magic weapon in it to defeat the enemy?

There's nothing but the bloody loot!

With those booty, the soldiers, whether they live or die, can earn a considerable amount of money and food for their families...... That thing can't be lost if you die!

…… But what is the significance of those burdens to the great cause of the Lord?

Immediately, a military judge rushed into the formation, wanting to harshly discourage the soldiers, but the infantry vs. cavalry, the change was only a moment, and why did the people of the state give him the opportunity to re-form the front?!

Zhang Liao is here!

When he approached, he was no longer the pale golden morning light, but like the rolling flames of the sun, he rolled up a fiery dragon, swept away all obstacles in the road, and came towards the earth platform!

Yuan Shao stood up in an instant.

At that moment, two completely different sentences sounded at the same time.

"Fetch my lance!"

"Lord's retreat!"

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment.

This high platform was built for him by the people of Jizhou, there was a man high, several zhang long and wide, with a heavy shield on it and a war horse on it, even if he sent his halberd warriors, there were still thousands of guards to protect his safety.

Those guards were not even selected from the Qianshou ranks, some of them had served the Yuan clan for generations, but more of them were the children of those families in Jizhou. Therefore each of them wore the finest armor and held the sharpest weapons.

And that's how they behaved - the long cards had already picked up the long cards, and someone stepped forward and put up the long cards to block the cavalry's horses; Someone stepped back and held up the long card to block the cold arrows of the cavalry.

Some jumped on their horses and headed for the enemy, while others shouted loudly for the crossbowmen on both sides to prepare.

His soldiers are very good, Yuan Shao thought in a daze, even better than that day.

He was surrounded by cavalry that day, and when arrows rained down, he was advised to retreat.

After so many years, he never forgets that day.

He worked hard to make the country prosperous, based on Hebei, saved such a strong foundation, and had such an elite division.

Is he going to retreat?

A fiery and intense force rushed into Yuan Shao's chest, causing the commander's roar to roar like a lion:

"Fetch my lance!"

Chapter 569

The name "Yuan Shao" is defined differently by different people.

The men who came to him thought he was forgiving and loving;

The advisors around him thought he was a bit indecisive;

When he served as the "Puyang Order", the people felt that he was upright;

When he lived in Luoyang, he refused to follow the eunuchs, and was scolded by the Zhongchang attendant as a villain who "sat on the price";

Later, these things gradually mixed together, and after he got the four states of Hebei, it became a vague and contemptuous evaluation:

Yuan Benchu, but he borrowed the background of the fourth and third dukes, does he really have any ability?

Of course he has the ability.

Runan Yuan is a high-ranking family, there are so many descendants of the concubine, from the belly of the noble daughter's wife, to be called a Langjun, he is like this, when he is outside, everyone is polite, and when he returns home, he is not faced with a respectful younger brother, but the humiliation of "slave and maid".

So he has to be the best at everything.

He must have resourcefulness, courage, determination, and courage...... He must always be ready to face those challenges that the "real" Lang Jun does not have to face! He dared to say that Yuan Shu had never been like him to his death, and he had come to the sword soldiers in person!

He has to be strong!

If today is the same as the old days, how can he command the three armies again! How to make Henan Shishu attached!

The lance was cold.
