At this moment, the previously closed gates of the military camp outside the city of Linqie slowly open, and countless cavalry pour out from the gates. They stop one by one in front of the camp gate and then organize themselves into orderly formations, waiting.
In the stable of the military camp
"Yezhaoyu! It has been a long time since we showed our skills. This is going to be a fierce battle. Are you ready?" Zhao Yun murmured as he gently stroked the white steed in front of him, which was happily munching on grass.
Huihuihui~
As if understanding what Zhao Yun said, the Night Illumination Jade, which was eating grass, raised its front hoof, breathed heavily from its nostrils, and neighed towards the sky. Zhao Yun felt the enthusiasm of the Night Illumination Jade and became overjoyed. He untied the reins that bound it, mounted it on the Night Illumination Jade's back, and lightly tapped the Night Illumination Jade to gallop out of the camp gate.
When Zhao Yun arrived at the gate of the military camp, the four thousand cavalry had already lined up in a neat formation, waiting for him.
"General Zhao! Our four thousand flatland iron cavalry have all assembled! Please give the order, General Zhao!"
Zhao Yun scrutinized the cavalry he had personally trained with a serious expression. Although the Battle of Xipingchang resulted in victory for Liu Bei's forces, he had not demonstrated the full potential of the cavalry, resulting in a loss of half of the carefully nurtured troops. This was a shame for a cavalry commander. Although Liu Bei did not blame him, and even rewarded him, Wang Mu trusted him unconditionally and entrusted him with the task of training the army's horses again. Therefore, he made up his mind to prove himself in this battle.
Zhao Yun rode his horse to the middle and raised his spear to shout at the cavalry.
"Today, our lord leads the righteous army to pacify the rebels in Jinan. The Yellow Turban rebels in Jinan have been defeated in consecutive battles, while our lord has been victorious. The bandits themselves know they are no match and are fleeing everywhere. Now, the defeated thieves have fled to the territory of Linji. What should we do?"
"Kill!"
With four thousand people simultaneously raising their spears high, they roared passionately. Seeing this group of cavalry with high morale, Zhao Yun knew in his heart that this battle would be won!
"Soldiers, follow me into battle and kill the enemy! Beat the drum!"
Dong! Dong! Dong! The battle drums rang out in the camp.
Zhao Yun led the charge, with four thousand cavalry following closely behind.
Taishan
The entire mountain forest was strewn with corpses, and there were broken weapons and armor everywhere, all discarded in this forest. There were also many Liu character flags left behind in the mountains.
After receiving Cheng Yu's plea for help, Liu Dai had some thoughts in mind about whether to save Zhu Acheng.
At this moment, someone suggested why not take the opportunity to attack the base of the Tai Shan bandits while they were causing chaos in Zhu A's territory. After careful consideration, Liu Dai immediately led twenty thousand soldiers to the old nest of the bandits that had been entrenched in Tai Shan for years. To ensure safety, he even invited his former ally Cao Cao to come and assist him.
However, Liu Dai was unaware that he had a spy from the Taishan Bandits in his army. As soon as Liu Dai gave the order to launch an attack, the spy leaked the information. Zang Ba and others received the news and were shocked. They abandoned the stolen supplies at Zhu A's place and hurried back overnight.
In this case, Liu Dai was advised by Cao Cao and together they managed to conquer three levels of the Taishan bandits. After that, Cao Cao personally came to suggest that Liu Dai should send someone to gather information about the Taishan bandits.
At this time, when Liu Dai saw that Cao Cao was arrogant and believed that the majority of the Taishan bandits were still causing trouble in Zuoji, he firmly believed that as long as an opportunity arose, he could capture them in one fell swoop. Liu Dai even sarcastically asked Cao Cao if he wasn't so cowardly when he was pursuing Dong Zhuo back then!
The Battle of Xingyang was a painful defeat for Cao Cao. Now, Liu Dai is openly opposing Tao Kan's allegiance to Cao Cao, and in a fit of anger, Cao Cao retreats with his troops.
Despite Cao Cao's withdrawal, Liu Dai does not make any efforts to stop him, and the soldiers below become increasingly sympathetic towards Cao Cao.
Three days after Cao Cao retreated, Liu Dai ordered the other three generals to lead their forces in attacking the Bandit Camp at Mount Tai from different directions, while he personally led the army to attack the main gate of the Bandit Camp at Mount Tai.
At this time, Zang Ba and other Taishan bandits took the initiative to attack, leading five thousand Taishan bandits to ambush in the mountains and forests, and ambushed Liu Dai's ten thousand army. The Taishan bandits were extremely familiar with the terrain here and instantly defeated Liu Dai's army. Seeing the situation was not good, Liu Dai hurriedly fled without commanding the army to counterattack. The Taishan bandits captured more than ten thousand weapons and equipment, and for a while, their reputation spread far and wide.
18 miles southwest of Linji City, a large deserted dry land stretches out, with tens of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels slowly walking on the road.
"Report! General Zhao, the rebel army has entered our encirclement."
"Spread the word and let the brothers mount their horses immediately." Zhao Yun mounted his horse and pulled out the long spear planted on the ground.
Yes!
It was now noon, and the sun was ruthlessly scorching the continuously rushing Yellow Turban thieves. The Yellow Turban thieves of Xu He's faction were already exhausted and desperately thirsty, with complaints echoing throughout the ranks.
"Captain Qu, how about taking a rest? Look at our brothers down there, they have been on the road for quite a long time and they are exhausted. Moreover, there are more and more complaints among our team members!" Xu and the subordinate next to him cautiously said.
“行!让兄弟们休息会,刚好我也好久没有饮水了,口渴的紧。”徐和揉了揉喉咙说道。
“是!渠帅,你先下马休息,我立马派人将东平陵城中的美酒给你拿来解渴。”小头目一听立马献媚道。
Xu Hefan off the horse and found a shady place, inserting his weapon in the nearby soil and sitting under a withered tree, waiting for his servants to bring wine. Xu Hefan quickly spread the order to rest in place, and the Yellow Turban bandits who had been on the road all night also found shady spots to rest.
"Pass me your wine jug!" the small bandit leader carefully carried a jug of wine over.
"You're not bad, kid. As long as you wholeheartedly follow me, one day you'll make it big," Xu Hec
"Thank you for your guidance, Shie Qushuai! Thank you for your guidance, Shie Qushuai!" The junior leader quickly kowtowed in gratitude.
Xu He took the wine jar, uncovering the lid, and a strong aroma of wine wafted out, causing the junior leader beside him to salivate uncontrollably.
Gulu! Gulu! Gulu!
Xu He hugged the wine jar and poured it into his mouth without paying any attention to the small leader who was longing for it.
Seeing that Xu He didn't even glance at him, the small leader wisely ran to the side to drink water with the ordinary thieves.
After a short while, the Yellow Turban thieves drank up the water and fell asleep on the spot.
Kill! Kill! Kill!
When the Yellow Turban thieves were completely defenseless, Zhao Yun led four thousand cavalry to charge straight towards them.
The earth-shattering shouts of killing awakened the resting Yellow Turban rebels,
"The Han army is here! The Han cavalry is charging towards us…" One of the Yellow Turban rebels looked towards Zhao Yun in alarm.
黄巾贼都还没来得及拿起武器,赵云四千骑兵就已经冲到人群中一顿乱杀,黄巾贼寇本身就是身上没有一点护具,赵云骑兵进来基本都是一刀一个,一刀一个。
"Ah! Ah! We can't stop the Han cavalry at all. Brothers, run!" Some of the Yellow Turban rebels were frightened and immediately dropped their weapons and fled in all directions.
With the first one, there came a second, third...and more and more Yellow Turban rebels who did not resist, and started fleeing everywhere. When the Yellow Turban rebels in front ran away, those behind also began to save their lives, and threw down their weapons to escape in all directions.
Xu and Gang had been drinking and are still a little drunk. They are watching as the Yellow Turban thieves run around, and the Plain Cavalry troops charge into the crowd. Immediately, they become sober and order an immediate counterattack. However, the morale of their troops is already in chaos, and on the other side, Zhao Yun's troops are all cavalry, while they only have hoes as weapons.
When he saw that no one was following his orders and the cavalry was getting closer, he immediately panicked and looked around for his horse, but he didn't realize that his horse had already been taken by the little leader.
A cavalryman galloped behind Xu He and stabbed him in the back with a spear, catching him off guard. Xu He gritted his teeth in pain, clutching his chest, and retrieved a weapon from the ground. Turning around, he swung his sword, severing the cavalryman who had impaled him from his horse.
Xu leaned against a stone, clutching his chest, silently watching his fifty thousand troops being eliminated bit by bit. He closed his eyes unwillingly.
