Chapter 514: The Protagonist Appears

After the team escorting Mrs. Lu left, the convoy began to light piles of bonfires. The soldiers who had been concentrating on vigilance obviously relaxed, and some people began to grill food on the fire. The aroma spread among the team.

There was the sound of horse hooves on the opposite side, and the horse bandit team was approaching here. Cao Tianci stood up with a smile. The drama had warmed up. Next, the protagonists were about to appear. And they, as indispensable supporting actors in this drama, also had extremely important roles. Drama.

Hengdao walked into the car formation carrying his iconic broadsword. The nine rings on the back of the knife clanged against each other. He greeted everyone enthusiastically, and everyone smiled at him.

"The people you need have already arrived from the general's side." Hengdao smiled and pointed behind him. Behind him, a group of people leading their horses appeared in Cao Tianci's field of vision. These people were more or less scarred and stained with blood.

"They are all soldiers injured by the general when he exterminated the horse bandits. However, their injuries are not serious and will not hinder the battle and will not have any impact on your plan." Hengdao said with a smile.

"How many people?" Cao Tianci asked.

"Sixty-five!" Hengdao turned around, "Leave a few dozen more of your people to make up more than a hundred people. The rest of your team will return to the team. Well, they will lose it after a battle with the horse bandits." All the baggage broke out, half of the two hundred cavalry were lost, and most of the remaining ones were injured, which makes sense."

Cao Tianci nodded, "All the baggage has been handed over to you. In just one hour, we will go after Mrs. Lu."

"How about I go with you. You need a guy with strong fighting ability!" Hengdao pointed to his nose and said confidently.

Cao Tianci laughed and said, "You'd better forget it. Your features are too obvious. I'll catch up with Mrs. Lu later. If a guy like you suddenly appears in the team, isn't it self-inflicted? Besides, you Wouldn't it be better to fight with the general? That is the most powerful army in the world."

"How can you be number one in the world?" Hengdao curled his lips. "I've seen it before, but Erle, the only thing that can be commended is the attitude of not fearing death. I want to follow you because your place is more exciting. I used to do these things when I followed Boss Bai. .familiar."

"Forget it, Lu Hong just met you, so you can't be careless." Cao Tianci said with a smile. "Just concentrate on your work!"

"I have no more work to do." Hengdao said with a smile: "The next step is to deal with He Yangguang who has come to help in a hurry. Haha, a thousand Qin army cavalry, it is exciting to think about it!"

He Yangguang and Qin Jun were given a sword by Cao Tian.

At this time, a small Xiongnu tribe of more than a hundred tents was surrounded. In the heavy snow, this small tribe did not expect that the Qin army would suddenly appear around them. When they discovered something unusual, a thousand Qin army cavalry had already cut off Their retreat was cut off, and they only had less than two hundred mounted warriors, so they were no match for the Qin people anyway.

The Qin cavalry had no intention of launching an attack. They just formed a cordon to prevent the enemy from breaking out. The attack would be completed by three thousand infantry. These infantry are almost all new soldiers. They need to be watered with blood so that they can grow up as quickly as possible. Their opponents only have two hundred adult warriors, even including those who can barely ride a horse. There will be no more than 500 people, and an attack line composed of 3,000 infantry is enough to prevent any accidents, and at the same time, it can also allow these recruits to be fully tempered while minimizing casualties.

All the adult soldiers were eliminated, and the others were captured. This was He Yangguang's order. The prisoners were brought back to Shannan County and handed over to Lu Chao, who would use their remaining energy. The fewest people in Shannan County now were manpower.

He watched with satisfaction as the three thousand infantrymen, under the command of the officers, slowly pressed toward the desperate Huns in the center from several directions. The other party was obviously panicked.

With howls of despair, the surrounded Huns broke their horses and started a crazy assault. But in He Yangguang's eyes, this was just the last struggle of a dying beast. If they had launched the assault earlier, they might have been able to attack. You can hold on for a while, after all, most of your subordinates are just new recruits, but now, it's too late.

This method of military training will indeed cause casualties, but it will result in a tiger and wolf division. Why does Yangon not care about these casualties? Even if the soldiers are locked up in the camp for training, there will still be casualties, not to mention that this is true. A war with real swords and guns.

There is no suspense about the outcome of the battle. What he cares about now is just how effective the grassroots commanders he sent can play. He wants to select the most dazzling officers from these people and promote their positions. Allowing them to play a greater role, and only in such battles can he understand the capabilities of a commander to the greatest extent.

The sound of rapid horse hooves behind him interrupted his thoughts. When he turned around, his pupils shrank slightly. That was his sentinel. At this time, an officer among them was covered in blood and his whole body was almost lying down. On horseback, rush towards him.

The war horse stopped in front of him, and the officer on the horse almost rolled off the horse. When he raised his head, He Yangguang suddenly felt short of breath. It was a captain he sent out to meet Lu Chao's mother's team, Ma Li.

"General He, horse bandits, horse bandits are attacking, send reinforcements immediately." Ma Li was covered in scars, his armor was tattered, and the wounds on his body looked a bit scary. After saying this, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

He Yangguang took a long breath, turned over and dismounted, and stood aside watching the soldiers hurriedly treating Ma Li. He had to be revived first to know the specific situation.

He no longer had the intention to pay attention to the battle situation in the distance. It was no longer worth caring about. Although he looked calm, his heart was already turbulent at this time. The horse power brought dozens of elite cavalry, and Gao Yuan sent out to escort them. There are also two hundred cavalry. The combat effectiveness of the Eastern Expeditionary Army should be good. More than two hundred elite cavalry actually need the power to escape back in such embarrassment and seek help. How many horse bandits should there be? When did such a large number of horse bandits appear in this place?

Rescue is a must. Not to mention how well Lu Chao cooperates with him, considering this person's background, I cannot neglect him. His teacher Li Ru is respected in the Qin State, and even the king will respectfully address him. Last time, teacher, in the main hall, as long as Li Ru appears, there will be a seat for him next to the king's big desk.

While He Yangguang seemed to be waiting patiently but was actually anxious in his heart, Ma Li finally woke up leisurely. Under He Yangguang's repeated inquiries, Ma Li described the situation he knew in detail.

He led ten Qin cavalry to break out of the encirclement to ask for help, but was pursued by dozens of horse bandits. The soldiers around him worked in pairs to resist the pursuers and buy time for him. In the end, only he broke out, and the rest Everyone died in this pursuit, and even he was seriously injured. Even he was a little surprised to be able to escape in the end. There was a moment when he thought he was going to die.

Listening to Ma Li's narration, He Yangguang suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. The Lu family should be considered wealthy in western Liaoning. The Lu family had shares in the world-famous Wu's Liquor Industry. For him, the annual income was a The numbers are astronomical, and the news I got from Lu Chao is that when Mrs. Lu came this time, there were dozens of carriages accompanying her. Such a huge team walking on the snowy field was an obvious sign. A fat sheep. Those horse bandits who are crazy poor and hungry will definitely stare at this convoy with their blood-red eyes.

A convoy escorted by two hundred cavalry cannot be swallowed by one horse bandit team, but they can contact more horse bandit teams. If several horse bandit teams join forces, they will have this strength.

It seems that this is what happened to Mrs. Lu, and the opponent's combat effectiveness is extremely strong. The cavalry brought by the horse power are also elite among her own team, but they were defeated by the opponent in the duel, which fully shows that I can see how powerful the horse bandits are this time.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, which meant that he was looking for them. They gathered together, which saved trouble. At this time, he hoped that the cavalry of the Eastern Expedition Army could persist until the end. The other party chose to camp and hold on instead of attacking. This was a good choice.

"All cavalry, gather immediately and go to rescue." He Yangguang glanced back at the battlefield, where the overall situation had almost been decided. The dying Huns had been suppressed to a very small area by the Qin army attacking from several sides. Their destruction was just a matter of time. It happened in the blink of an eye. "Send an order to Ni Zhong. After destroying these Huns, he will immediately move in to support us."

A soldier took the order and left.

"Ma Li, can you still ride a horse?" He Yangguang looked at the weak Ma Li and asked. "I need you to lead the way!"

"General, I can do it!" Ma Liqiang stood up and said, "Get me a different horse and tie me to it."

"Very good!" He Yangguang nodded appreciatively.

Thousands of Qinqi gathered together in an instant, and under the guidance of their horse power, they ran wildly towards the depths of the snowy field. At the same place, the battle was coming to an end. Due to the unexpected situation, the prisoners who were originally planned to be robbed were not allowed to be captured. Suddenly, the soldiers broke into the Huns' camp. Under swords and guns, screams came one after another, and the camp was massacred. This was He Yangguang's last order.

Gao Yuan was sitting on a snow hill, chewing frozen hard mutton jerky, occasionally picking up a ball of snow and stuffing it into his mouth. Around him, the infantry, He Lanxiong and the cavalry were beginning to assemble. In the distance, there was the sound of rapid hoofbeats. Gao Yuan swallowed the dried meat in his mouth hard, looked at the sentry riding in the distance, stood up with a laugh, "The show begins!" (To be continued.
