Looking at Guangzong County, Li Qing fell into deep thought.
Guangzong County was the first place where the Yellow Turban Army promoted the Taiping Cult. It could be said that all the gentry and common people in the city were followers of Taiping. Once there was any sign of trouble, all the people would become soldiers.
Previously, General Lu Zhi had been unable to take down the Yellow Turban army for a long time. He could only use time to slowly wear down the morale of the Yellow Turban army. It was for this reason that he could not break through in one fell swoop.
It could be said that Lu Zhi's actions were correct and also the most correct. However, the Spirit Emperor was muddle-headed and listened to calumny. He replaced Lu Zhi and escorted him to Luoyang in exchange for Dong Zhuo, this boorish man. It would be strange if he could win.
"If I lead my troops to attack, how can I quickly break through the defense line?”His subordinates were all cavalrymen and were not good at attacking. Li Qing frowned and thought hard.
"Right, Lu Zhi is already on his way. Dong Zhuo must be impatient. I'm afraid he has already suffered a great defeat. If Zhang Jiao comes to rob the camp again…"
Suddenly, Li Qing's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted,""Men!"
"My lord!" Mu Guiying walked in. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Li Qing for two seconds before she bowed.
"Pass down my order. Everyone, break camp tonight and help Guangzong.”
……
It was already late at night. About 20 miles outside Guangzong City, the terrain was dangerous and it was the best place to set up an ambush.
At this moment, Li Qing led 8,000 cavalrymen. All the horses had cloths wrapped around their hooves as they quietly entered the area.
If Dong Zhuo was defeated, they would have to go through this road. Li Qing only needed to wait here quietly with his men. This was also his innate advantage of being familiar with history.
"Ding!"
" Hidden mission triggered."
[Option 1: Dong Zhuo's army is defeated. After passing through this place, the host will lead his troops to intercept the pursuers. After completing the mission, the host will receive a gold-grade treasure chest and 10,000 military merits.]
[Option 2: Allow the pursuers to pursue Dong Zhuo. The host will not do anything. The mission is completed and you will receive a Bronze Treasure Chest.]
[Option 3: Block the pursuers and chase after Zhang Jiao. Mission completed, you will receive a Platinum Treasure Chest and 30,000 military merits.]
"Host, please make your choice."
The system's cold electronic voice in his mind startled Li Qing for a moment before he sneered.
With such an opportunity, he naturally had to give Zhang Jiao a big gift.
Everyone waited in silence as they rested their energy.
At dawn, a scout finally reported that Dong Zhuo's army had been defeated and was being pursued by Zhang Jiao's army.
Li Qing immediately became spirited. Indeed, in just a moment, a wave of battle cries came from afar.
"Listen up!"
"Everyone, don't act rashly. Wait until all the defeated Han soldiers have passed and the Yellow Turban Army has chased after half of them.”
The so-called attack halfway through was like this. Letting go of the vanguard troops, letting the enemy relax their vigilance, and then attacking with the entire army, catching the enemy off guard, often would yield better gains.
Soon, half of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were chasing the defeated soldiers had passed. Li Qing waved his saber and ordered,""Everyone, attack!"
"Kill them!"
"Battle Wolf Legion, kill!"
The 8,000 cavalrymen descended from the sky, and the earth-shattering battle cries stunned the Yellow Turban soldiers. In the blink of an eye, they were cut down.
Zhang Jiao, who was in the middle of the army, was also confused. He shouted,""Where did the government cavalry come from?"
At this moment, the sky was already bright. A deputy general looked at it and immediately turned pale with fright."General, this…this is Li Chengde's cavalry.”
His voice even trembled. After the Battle of Zhuo County and the Battle of Changshe, Li Qing's cavalry had long since become famous, especially their battle achievements of defeating millions. They were even more legendary. In private, the Yellow Turban Army paled at the mention of Li Qing's troops.
As soon as the Deputy General's words fell, the Yellow Turban soldiers around him who heard it immediately retreated a few steps in fear, all of them trembling with fear.
Seeing this, Zhang Jiao snorted and said,"That Li Qing only has seven to eight thousand cavalry. Our army has more than a hundred thousand men, so why should we be afraid of him?”
" General, you can't..." A trusted aide beside Zhang Jiao shouted.
"General, our army has been chasing Dong Zhuo's defeated army for a long time. Our soldiers are exhausted, and Li Qing has already rested his strength. Once the cavalry gathers and charges, he will be unstoppable.”
Hearing this, Zhang Jiao pondered. The soldiers had been cowering when they heard Li Qing's arrival. They had wanted to use this opportunity to break the atmosphere, but it seemed that they had to give up.
However, after defeating Dong Zhuo and killing countless soldiers, Guangzong's situation had improved greatly.
As the soul of the Yellow Turban Army and the spiritual leader, he was not a mediocre person. He said,""In that case, you will lead your troops to cover the retreat of the army. You will be rewarded handsomely.”
"Here!"
……
" My lord…" Li Jue rode his horse and finally caught up to the front line of the Western Liang army. There, a stout and armored general was running for his life.
Upon hearing Li Jue's call, Dong Zhuo, who was fleeing in panic, stopped and asked,"Li Jue, where are the pursuers?”
He was really frightened. In the past, the Yellow Turban soldiers he had encountered were just a motley crew. When he encountered the Xi Liang army, they were nothing more than clay chickens and pottery dogs. Why was the Yellow Turban army so fierce this time? Even if they had to die, they would do everything they could to perish together with their people.
