Under the warm sunshine, a gray rabbit was running wildly on the withered grass, and from time to time it would suddenly change direction during the running process. At this moment, the small body burst out with great energy. It was not the ferocious beast that made it run away. Of course, for it, these guys riding on horses were definitely much terrifying than wild beasts.

Several war horses were chasing him relentlessly. At once, a tall knight controlled the horse with his legs and drove Ruyi. The knight set his bow and arrow. No matter how bumped the war horse was, the man's upper body was as stable as Mount Tai.

With a whoosh, the feather arrow broke out of the string, and the running rabbit flew up. The feather arrow penetrated from its back door, and the huge force led it forward, faster than it was running.

The knight immediately rushed over from behind. When the feather arrow was about to run out and the gray rabbit that was caught in the arrow was about to land, the knight hid in the pedal and gently stretched out the ape's arms. He grabbed the rabbit and arrow firmly in his hand.

The knight turned around and raised the rabbit in his hand high. The knight following behind him stopped around him and cheered in unison. It was not surprising that he shot the rabbit on the galloping horse. They could almost do it, but like this, an arrow penetrated through the rabbit's back door and penetrated out of his mouth, and he had to have the ability to penetrate the poplar hundreds of steps.

The knight laughed and threw the rabbit to one person, shouting: "Send the order, the whole army will rest for an hour, bury the pot and make rice, eat and drink before leaving."

"Yes!" A cavalry responded loudly, turned around and left.

After a moment, the ground trembled slightly, and a large group of cavalry rolled in.

The cavalry suddenly became lively on the banks of the Red River. Some of them built simple stoves, while others rode their war horses to drag large trees from afar. They split into piles of firewood in a few seconds. Widgets of blue smoke rose from the banks of the river and went straight to the sky. It took less time, and the fragrance of rice began to float on the banks of the Red River.

More cavalrymen led their war horses to the riverside, letting the horse drink the river water, took out a brush from their bag and washed the dirty hair hard for the war horses. After the horse drank the water, they took out handfuls of beans from their pockets and stuffed them into the horse's mouth.

It was not until they felt comfortable serving their war horses that they led the horse back to the shore. They were ready to start eating.

This cavalry naturally came from the Liaodong wasteland and was transferred by the Emperor of Qi to support Xu Junsheng's Leidong troops in the Red River Basin.

When Leidong left the Liaodong wasteland, he only left 5,000 infantrymen for Qin Li, and he took all the remaining 20,000 cavalrymen. He stationed in Liaodong for many years and dealt with female Naomen in Liaodong. His troops were always mainly cavalry. In the Liaodong wasteland, the most scarce were war horses. Although the war horses there were not big, they were cold-resistant and had excellent physical strength, they were rare war horses.

Of course, 20,000 cavalrymen could not run by riding horses, but they had to carry a lot of supplies. It was a good idea to say that the war horses were actually very delicate. They only ate grass but not food. After three or five days, their four hooves would become weak. Just carrying the food they ate with the war horses was a considerable amount. It was not until they entered the Honghe River Basin and the county governors began to provide supplies along the way that they accelerated their speed.

However, the military situation was urgent, and Lei Dong divided his 20,000 cavalry into three units. He led his 5,000 front troops to advance quickly, hoping to arrive in Laizhou as quickly as possible to support Xu Junsheng, complete the blockade of the entrance to the Red River Basin, and defend this large fertile land for Qi State.

The rabbit that Lei Dong had just shot himself on firewood was mounted on the firewood. The burning fire was covered with a layer of green pine needles. The fragrance wrapped the rabbit with the smoke and slowly seeped into the flesh.

A soldier took off the golden-baked rabbit from the fire, took out a knife to cut off the most plump rabbit leg, and then sprinkled some burnt smoke on it. He then took out a small jar, shook some red fine powder from it, and smeared evenly with a knife, then handed it to Lei Dong.

Lei Dong took a bite of the fat rabbit meat and chewed it in big mouthfuls. The spicy taste rushed straight through the taste buds.

"Comfortable!" Lei Dong laughed, took a wine gourd from his waist, raised his neck and took a big sip, and watched the throats of several guards beside him swaying, but he smiled and threw the gourd to them, "Each one sip is not much, so he saves a little. When we defeat the Ming people, we snatched their camp. I think there is as much wine as you can."

Several personal guards were overjoyed and took the gourd. Sure enough, each of them just took a small sip, making a little meaning.

This wine is a stolen knife from the Ming Dynasty, which is the layer of red powder that the personal guards applied to the rabbit meat, and is also a pepper produced from the Ming Dynasty. I heard that this is a new crop seed brought back from overseas by the Ming Dynasty.

People in many places cannot eat this spicy thing at all, but Yuejingcheng was popular because Qin Feng loved this. After this thing slowly spread to Qi, it immediately became the favorite of Leidong, who was stationed on the Liaodong wasteland. In Qi, this crop that became red after maturity was more of an ornamental plant. Leidong ate such things in a restaurant with Yuejing flavor in Ming Dynasty, and began to import them in large quantities.

For those who live in a cold place, strong wine and chili are perfect matches.

When the Ming and Qi were in conflict, the war began, and the peppers could be obtained, but they could not get the spirits like the Braised Knife, because such spirits could exist as medical supplies. The Ming people naturally refused to export such strategic materials to Qi when the two countries were at war.

In other words, generals of Lei Dong's level still have some inventory in their hands that can be drunk openly, and most of the rest are in the hands of military doctors, and it is impossible to use them to satisfy your cravings.

This army has been stationed in the Liaodong wasteland, and some have settled in several generations. The father and son have inherited each other and have always fought against the barbaric Liaodong female Naomen, so they are more infected with the fierce and barbaric atmosphere of many Liaodong people. They have never seen the Central Plains army. Even if the Qi army is defeated continuously on various battlefields, they just despised the Central Plains army and lost themselves in the flower world and have degenerated into the shame of the Qi army. They did not think about how powerful the Ming army was.

Lei Dong knew more. After entering the Central Plains, all kinds of information were gathered in his hands. The airships in the air and giant ships in the water could shoot enemy guns and powerful artillery from a distance. He shared these situations with his senior generals, but did not disclose them to all the soldiers.

The unknown will always make people fear. He doesn't want his soldiers to have a sense of fear of these weapons they have never seen before they go to the battlefield.

Lei Dong actually didn't care much. He was a cavalry and advocated an attack that was coming and going like the wind, and was a mobile and flexible interspersing. He found an opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow in the constant movement. If he missed one blow, he immediately floated away in order to find the next opportunity. He would not care about the gains and losses of a city and a place. That was Xu Junsheng's business. What he wanted to do was just peeping secretly from one side like a wild wolf, and he would come up and take a bite when he took the opportunity.

On the way he came, he had already obtained the Ming army's military deployment in Laizhou, without large-scale cavalry. For him, that would be even better. He was afraid of a ship on the river. Can the ship go ashore? As for those infantrymen, after seeing the cavalry from afar, they would quickly arrange a tight formation and wait for their own attack? The only thing that could be worrying about was the airships floating in the sky.

However, no matter how powerful the airship is, it cannot shake its roots.

He was chewing rabbit meat in his mouth, but he was thinking about the pros and cons of both parties. After thinking about it, he seemed that he had no reason to fail.

He stood up, looking at the dead grass leisurely arching the ground with his mouth, trying to find some fresh grass roots to eat, and looking at the soldiers who were eating easily and chatting loudly, he smiled. The soldiers were so powerful that when other Daqi troops were defeated, he would surprise Daqi. He also wanted to let the Ming people know that Daqi is not a general who can fight.

He walked easily, and looked at the rushing Red River water. This river that spanned almost the entire Qi State nourished the richest area of ​​Daqi. Such magnificent mountains and rivers naturally did not allow Ming people to come and trample on them.

Lei Dong's ears suddenly moved, and he raised his head alertly, and the buzzing sounds in his ears were something he had never heard before.

He took off the telescope from his waist and searched in the sky in the direction of the sound.

airship!

He almost called out.

Mingren’s airship!

Lei Dong never expected that he was still hundreds of miles away from Laizhou, and the Ming army's airship had already penetrated so far into the Red River Basin.

"Warning!" he shouted loudly.

Thousands of cavalry immediately began to act.

"Distract, don't line up, the more you pull, the better!" Lei Dong's eyes moved with the movement of the airship.

In the sky, Du Yi also discovered the target. Such a large area of ​​cavalry was hard to find. The airship began to accelerate, flew above the cavalry, and began to hover high. Du Yi also held up a telescope and carefully observed the enemy below.

He flew over by following the smoke rising from the sky. Without the guidance of the smoke, it would be really not an easy thing to find these enemies.

"It's indeed Redon's cavalry!" Du Yi looked at the banner below, "I finally found you. Prepare the bomb, let's give them some surprises."

"Captain, their troops are very good at driving. I am afraid they will not have much effect when throwing bombs!" The bomb dropper lay at the bomb drop port and looked down.
