"That cavalry is simply terrifying..."

Mi Fang and Wu Anguo witnessed the scene of the heavy cavalry of the Huben Army rampaging among the Yuzhou Legion on the city wall of Xiaopei. Their scalps were numb and they even had goosebumps all over their bodies.

The Yuzhou Army was attacked by a powerful heavy cavalry force. It was unstoppable and scattered in all directions.

This scene seems familiar.

In the Battle of Pengcheng, Yuan Shu's army was attacked by lightning cavalry and was defeated by several camps. This time, Chutian used Joan of Arc as bait to attract the attention of the Yuzhou Army, and then carried out a roundabout sneak attack.

Using the terrifying trump card of the Tiger and Ben Army, they were able to destroy the 50,000 Yuzhou Pioneer Army in one fell swoop. Compared with Yuan Shu's Yuzhou Army, the Yuzhou Army of the Tang Dynasty needed Chu Tian's all-out efforts.

"General Mi is truly a god. In the last battle at Pengcheng, the general also foresaw that the lord would soon come to help. This battle at Xiaopei is like this again."

The officials in Xiaopei admired Mi Fang and thought that Mi Fang had a plan.

"Ahem, open the city gate and welcome the lord into the city. The lord has few soldiers, and there is only the vanguard of the enemy outside the city."

The second time Mi Fang casually said it, even she was embarrassed to take such credit, so she had to change the topic.

When the commander-in-chief of the Yuzhou Army returned, the army remaining in the main camp had collapsed. He gathered the remaining defeated soldiers and evacuated quickly.

Chu Tian did not let him go, and led the cavalry to pursue him all the way, and defeated him again on the way, annihilating thousands of enemies.

However, when Chu Tian fought with him, he clearly felt that the opponent's legion was not easy to deal with. After the opponent changed its commander, the morale of the legion was quickly restored and its combat capability became stronger.

There is a big gap between the opponent's general and deputy general, which is equivalent to the gap between Wei Qing and Gongsun Ao. If the opponent's general was present at that time, Chutian's cavalry might have to pay greater casualties to defeat the 50,000 Yuzhou Army.

"Maybe he is a talented commander. Keep pursuing!"

Chu Tian pursued him until late at night, and when he saw that he could not capture the opponent's general, he turned back.

Being chased by Chu Tian for more than a hundred miles, this was probably the heaviest loss the general had suffered since he was recruited. The 50,000-strong army suffered at least 20,000 casualties.

Cheng Yaojin escaped because he went to chase Joan of Arc. He heard that the vanguard army had been defeated, so he avoided Chu Tian's cavalry and went to join the commander.

Mi Fang saw that Chu Tian did not enter the city, but was pursuing the enemy without stopping, so he led his troops out of the city to occupy the enemy's camp, plunder supplies, and capture three thousand defeated troops who were unable to escape, achieving great success without any effort.

Finally, in the middle of the night, Chu Tian returned from chasing the Yuzhou Army, covered in dust.

Every bold attack will most likely yield results, but every time it is also dangerous and exhausts your physical strength. If you encounter a commander with an elite legion, you may overturn. This operation has risks.

Zhao Yun and more than a thousand white horse Yi Cong were counterattacked by tens of thousands of elites from the opponent, killing and injuring hundreds of cavalry, and Zhao Yun was injured.

If it weren't for the Tiger and Ben heavy cavalry that destroyed the opponent's elite, Zhao Yun would have been in trouble. After all, the opponent was a special unit with tens of thousands of people.

Chu Tian judged that this legion should be a special unit with a large number but not a particularly high level.

"It's said that Tang's city is too deep. Not only me, but also other princes probably don't know his information. Xue Yue, you don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to obtain information."

Chutian returned to Xiaopei and ordered Xueyue to use the player's influence to find out any information about Tang.

"My lord, I will live up to our expectations and stick to Xiaopei! The five schools of the Northern Army, the White Robe Legion, and the Servant Legion are all in Xiaopei and are at your disposal, my lord!"

Mi Fang couldn't help but be excited when she saw Chu Tian again.

Because Chu Tian defeated the invading enemy, Mi Fang indirectly gained considerable military exploits and was expected to be promoted to an official general in the future.

During the Battle of Mobei, the Fifth School of the Northern Army, the White Robe Legion, and the Servant Legion were sent to Xiaopei by Xia Liang in advance to guard against invading enemies from the direction of Yuzhou. As long as Chutian arrives, these three elite legions can be taken over immediately

, to strengthen the troops in hand.

"The whole army is resting and recuperating. The main force in Yuzhou may arrive at any time. What we have defeated is only the opponent's vanguard."

Chu Tian asked the generals to recharge their batteries. The 50,000 Yuzhou Army they defeated was the vanguard force of the Tang Dynasty, and there were also a large number of main forces in the rear.

"Send someone to retrieve Joan of Arc."

Chu Tian felt somewhat guilty when he thought of Joan of Arc who was exploited by him.

Joan of Arc has not appeared until now.

"Did she escape or was she captured?"

Chu Tian thought of two possibilities, no matter which one, it seemed not good.

"Miss Jeanne is back!"

When Chu Tian was wondering whether he should try his best to squeeze his subordinates in the future, Joan of Arc finally led the cavalry back.

Joan of Arc was hit by an arrow, and the situation seemed to be bad. She turned pale, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Chu Tian: "Lord, I have fulfilled my mission..."

"Doctor."

In order to win this victory, Chu Tian used a general as a bait. He could not let other generals feel cold and hurriedly called in a doctor.

Of the 600 foreign cavalry who followed Joan of Arc to attack Cheng Zhijie, only 200 came back, which shows how tragic the battle was. Cheng Yaojin also didn't know how to cherish the beauty and the jade, and almost killed Joan of Arc with an axe.

If the French knew that their saint was being used as a dangerous bait, they would definitely have the urge to strangle Chu Tian to death.

"Miss Joan of Arc was seriously injured, but her life is not in danger."

There were many doctors in Xiaopei City. They stopped Joan's bleeding and ensured that Joan would not die in battle, and then reported to Chu Tian.

As the lord, Chu Tian went to visit, and several circles of gauze were already wrapped around Joan of Arc's shoulders.

"I will not let a person carry out such a dangerous mission twice in a row, so you don't have to worry about encountering similar situations in the future. In return, you can make a request that is not excessive."

Chutian almost lost the leader of his servant army, and he felt somewhat scared.

Joan of Arc saw that the lord who usually exploited her suddenly became kind-hearted, so she asked tentatively: "Can I return to France after my injury recovers?"

"Can't."

"snort!"

Joan of Arc turned sideways and ignored Chu Tian. However, she forgot that her shoulder was injured, because the pressure on the injured shoulder made her shed tears in pain.

It was obvious that Chutian didn't want to let her go. She had gradually realized this. Although she didn't want to admit it, Chutian didn't want to let her go back to France.

The governor of Pei State, Xiang County, Yuzhou Mu said that Tang led 110,000 Yuzhou troops to rest and reorganize here, preparing to join the 50,000 vanguard army. However, he had not yet arrived at Xiaopei. He had already heard the news of the defeat and couldn't help but sigh: "Chu

Zimou's cavalry is really terrifying, I didn't expect that even you, Guo Ziyi, were defeated by him."

Talk about the Tang Dynasty looking at the generals who escaped from Pei. During the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, Guo Ziyi led the Shuofang army to suppress the rebels. He became the deputy marshal of the world's troops, recaptured Chang'an and Luoyang, defeated Tubo, and made great achievements in battle. He was one of the famous generals in the resurgence of the Tang Dynasty!

Even so, a commander like Guo Ziyi was defeated by Chu Zimou's cavalry assault tactics in the Battle of Xiaopei.

Chutian's blitzkrieg using cavalry has become his signature tactic. Although he was only a prince in Xuzhou, he relied heavily on the use of cavalry. Moreover, Chutian's cavalry was extremely powerful.

Guo Ziyi replied: "At that time, General Mo led an ambush force. He wanted to set up an ambush and defeat Chu Zimou, but he was deceived by Chu Zimou with a small number of cavalry. The main force had already detoured to the rear and destroyed our camp. By the time the General reacted,

The defeat was overwhelming, even Shuofang's army, which was the last general, suffered heavy losses and was unable to turn the tide."

"Your Shuofang army has 20,000 troops. How many are left at this time?"

"More than ten thousand."

"hiss……"

Said that Tang felt a pain in his body.

The rank of the Shuofang Army is not high. It is a fifth-level special unit. It is the elite division of the border towns of the Tang Dynasty. The fifth-level special unit does not seem to fit Guo Ziyi's status as commander, but the upper limit of the Shuofang Army is 64,000, which is far more than other special units.

Troops!

Shuofang's army includes cavalry, infantry, crossbowmen, and some barbarian cavalry, and the recruitment requirements are lower than those of sixth-level special units!

In view of the large number of Shuofang's army, low recruitment conditions and complete arms, Shuofang's army is very practical. It is said that Tang Dynasty could recruit 20,000 Shuofang's army for Guo Ziyi in one go!

The 20,000 Shuofang troops represent the elite of the Tang Dynasty who conquered Yuzhou, wooed and suppressed various lords in Yuzhou.

In the Battle of Xiaopei, half of Shuofang's army was directly lost!

"Impossible. According to the intelligence, even if you did not directly command Shuofang's army at that time, Chu Zimou would not be able to directly eliminate nearly 10,000 Shuofang's troops in one battle."

"Chu Zimou has an elite heavy cavalry that has not been recorded in the information. Its elite level is far superior to the general's cavalry. As for the number of people, the general judged that there were about a thousand people based on the description of the defeated soldiers. There is no mistake.

"

"Heavy cavalry?"

Saitang closed his eyes and recalled where he had made a mistake in judgment. Finally, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I understand. In the Battle of Mobei, he used his military exploits to obtain a heavy cavalry force!"

It is said that Tang can also exchange for cavalry, but Tang's points are not high, and it is impossible for Tang to spend 100,000 points in one go to exchange for a thousand-man eighth-level heavy cavalry like Chu Tian.

It can only be said that Chu Zimou was too ruthless. In Tang's opinion, exchanging 100,000 points for one heavy cavalry to consume was simply a waste. But Chu Tian's seemingly irrational approach might actually help Chu Tian more.

If the Huben Army helps Chu Tian occupy Yanzhou and Yuzhou as soon as possible, it will bring great benefits.

"I didn't expect that Chu Zimou directly changed to a high-level heavy cavalry. Seventh level? Or eighth level... A thousand and eighteenth level heavy cavalry is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."

Saitang couldn't help but feel despair when he thought of Chu Tian's generosity.

So far in the Tang Dynasty, even the recruitment conditions for the Xuanjia Army have not been met.

After Guo Ziyi tested Chu Tian's true and false, he asked Shuotang: "My lord, if Chu Zimou can't attack, should we attack Xiaopei?"

"If we don't attack Xuzhou at this time, there will be no better opportunity. If Cao Cao is eliminated, our situation will only become more passive."

It is said that Tang played with a dagger inlaid with jade. Once he was in a high position, it was difficult to give up power. For the sake of power, Chu Zimou would defeat him no matter how difficult it was.

"Our odds of winning against Chu Zimou are 50-50. He may not be able to defeat our Yuzhou army. We can only give it a try."

Talk about Tang's firm determination to attack Xiaopei.
