Hei Zi chuckled after hearing this." General Wen Yuan, that's why you hit the bullseye with ten arrows in a row the moment you came up. In addition, your riding skills are also good. This is something that can't be found in our army. Of course, I have to report the good news to the Lord."”
Zhang Liao smiled and said," I'm not ashamed to follow my lord. I think I made the right choice." Taking ten thousand steps back, even if I join the army in Bingzhou, I'll just be a small recruit. Who will put me in an important position like the lord? It's impossible for me to display my abilities, let alone lead troops to war. I don't know when I'll have to wait to lead troops to war independently. It might not be possible in my entire life.”
Lu Ning glanced at everyone and said,""Alright, everyone, get ready. In a few days, I'll bring you to fight for a piece of land that belongs to us. We'll think of a way to get the court to recognize our political status.”
"Yes, my lord," everyone said in unison.
Lu Ning thought for a moment and said," Right, we will have our own territory in the future. As for the captured Xianbei people or Xiongnu people, as long as they are strong, we don't have to kill them. We will keep them as our slaves and let them help us build cities and mine for the rest of their lives. It is a waste not to want these kinds of labor that do not require pay. Anyway, the more, the better."”
Everyone burst into laughter again, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
" That's right," Zhang Chuang said." Let them be free laborers. If they don't listen, it's not too late for us to kill them. This is also their punishment and revenge."”
Five days later, at the end of July 187, Zhang Liao set off with two thousand flying bear cavalry. Zhang Liao's army went around Mayi County and charged straight into Sanggan.
Lü Ning, on the other hand, led two thousand Flying Bear Cavalry and secretly set off at night. They chose a forest to hide in before dawn, leaving only two thousand soldiers in the Lü Ning army's main camp.
When Zhang Liao's army arrived at the outskirts of Sangqian City, there were only a few 300 cavalrymen stationed in the city. They had not expected that the Lü Ning army would boldly bypass Mayi City and attack them directly.
The Tartars in Sangqian City didn't think that the Lyu Ning Army was not afraid of cutting off their retreat. There were not many Xianbei cavalry in the city, and they had heard of the reputation of the Big Bear Army, so they didn't dare to come out of the city to fight. They had already asked for help from the surrounding Xianbei soldiers. They had to wait for reinforcements to arrive.
As for the 2,000 Flying Bear Army led by L??Ning, they had long since sneaked into the mountains less than 20 miles away from Sangqian City, waiting for their prey to take the bait. As long as their prey took the bait, L??Ning would ferociously pounce on them until they were annihilated.
Zhang Liao made a symbolic attack on Sangqian City, letting the enemy know that the Lü Ning army did not have siege weapons, and brazenly made it look like they were making siege weapons outside the city.
The Xianbei cavalrymen from the other small cities did not come to support Sang Qian. Even Mayi City did not come. Although Mayi City also had six to seven hundred soldiers, they were still worried that the Lü Ning army would take the opportunity to attack Mayi. Only the Xianbei cavalrymen from Yin Mansion City came. They knew that Zhang Liao's army only had 2000 men, and they were currently making siege weapons. They were very confident in their cavalry strength.
In order to take down Zhang Liao's army in one go, Yin Mansion had dispatched over 4,000 iron cavalry, leaving only 1,000 iron cavalry to defend the city.
After Lu Ning received the report from the scout, he was quite happy at first. However, after the Lü Ning scouts continued to scout, they discovered that the Xianbei cavalry were quite cunning. They would rather walk a little further than take a path that would allow the Lü Ning army to ambush them.
In the end, Lu Ning and Zhang Liao decided to annihilate them at night.
As they didn't have a good ambush position, they could only let Zhang Chuang lead 500 flying bear soldiers to attack the Xianbei camp.
Even though Lu Ning knew that the Xianbei people were prepared. Lu Ning told Zhang Chuang not to get too close to the enemy camp. He told them to shoot at the enemy camp from a distance. The goal was to lure the enemy out.
Zhang Liao led 1,500 flying bear soldiers to wait for Zhang Chuang's army to retreat halfway, while Lü Ning led 1,500 flying bear soldiers to wait at a place further away.
When the enemy chased Zhang Chuang's army out of the camp, as long as they heard the movement of the Lü Ning army, Li You would lead 500 flying bears to destroy the Xianbei army's camp. At that time, there wouldn't be many enemy soldiers stationed in the camp.
The actual situation was exactly as Lü Ning and the others had expected. When Zhang Chuang brought 500 flying bear soldiers to the range of the enemy's archery, Zhang Chuang immediately ordered his soldiers to fire rockets at the enemy's camp.
When the enemy saw that Zhang Chuang's army didn't want to charge into the tent, they could only lead the army to attack Zhang Chuang's army. Especially when they saw that Zhang Chuang's army only had a few hundred cavalry, not even a thousand cavalry, they immediately wanted to destroy Zhang Chuang's army in one fell swoop.
Zhang Chuang led his men to retreat and fight back, maintaining a certain distance from the enemy. This infuriated the Xianbei army, and they immediately chased after Zhang Chuangjun at full speed.
When Zhang Chuang saw the enemy chasing after him, he did not dare to stay and immediately led his soldiers to retreat.
The enemy was fast, so was he. If the enemy slowed down, he would slow down too. Just like this, the enemy chased for about twenty to thirty miles.
At this moment, the enemy's momentum was not as high as it had been at the beginning. Just as the enemy was hesitating, should they continue to pursue? It was better to stop the pursuit.
Zhang Liao led 1,500 flying bear soldiers to face the enemy's slaughter, while Lü Ning also led 1,500 flying bear soldiers to move further behind the enemy.
While Zhang Liao and Zhang Chuang were engaged in battle with the enemy, the flying bear soldiers led by Lü Ning had also reached the rear of the enemy.
The enemy did not expect the Lü Ning army to charge at them from behind. Now that the enemy was in chaos, they did not know if the enemy soldiers would turn around and face the Lü Ning army. Or should he continue to fight Zhang Liao and Zhang Chuangjun?
Of course, it was impossible for them to turn around and stop the Lü Ning army from fighting. It was not so easy for cavalry to turn around, unlike infantry, which could be completed in a short time.
Some of the enemy soldiers turned around, some didn't turn around, and some only turned halfway. In just a moment, the enemy soldiers were in chaos. Of course, this meant that they had failed and that they were destined to be slaughtered.
The enemy leader was welcomed by Zhang Liao. He only managed to walk a dozen rounds before he was pierced by Zhang Liao's spear. When the Xianbei soldiers saw their leader die, their morale plummeted. The Lü Ning soldiers shouted that they would not kill if they surrendered.
When the Xianbei soldiers saw that the situation was hopeless, some of them started to run, while others saw that they couldn't escape and simply surrendered.
Lu Ning's army did not stop chasing after the enemy. Lu Ning only left Zhang Chuang and a few hundred soldiers to collect the prisoners. Lu Ning and Zhang Liao led the army to chase after the enemy.
