Yan'an County, thirty miles from the north bank of Luoshui.

Thirty thousand Turkic cavalry were rushing forward, with neat formations like long dragons, with horses neighing, roaring towards the sky, and countless flags fluttering in the wind.

Their speed was too fast, with thousands of horses galloping, the scene was grand, and the sound of horse hooves shook the sky and the earth.

As a vanguard army, this Turkic vanguard kept changing mounts with two horses in turn, maintaining an extremely fast speed. As a sharp knife, it was necessary to quickly tear open the defense line along the Dahua Army and insert it into the heart position.

Faced with such an iron cavalry charge, it is difficult to compete with the army in any case!

At this time, several scattered cavalry rushed down from the valley on the side, and while sang Turkic, they were scouts sent out and came back to report the information.

The vanguard general who led the team was the Turkish Youguli King, Huobashichong, one of the major royal families of the Turks. He was thirty-five or six years old, strong, with deep eyes and a layer of blue in his eyes, like an eagle, sharp and deep, and a high nose bridge, making him look unruly.

Sitting on the nine-foot-high sweat-blooded horse, wearing an iron round helmet and a chain mail. Because of his noble status, he wore a golden leaf and silver leaf armor on his chest, and his armor was shining with cold light.

"King Guli, a scout came to inquire about important news."

"Slow down the marching speed and call them to come." Huobashi Chong waved his hand and slowed down the team. He planned to listen to the information and make the next decision.

Several scouts came over. Since the team was still moving forward, they did not dismount. Instead, they bowed on the horse's back. A scout said, "King Guli, we found that the front was Luoshui thirty miles away. After passing Luoshui, we went south for 200 miles, and we were Shangjun."

Huobashi Chong nodded and thoughtfully said: "Shangjun next to Jingzhao County, entering Shangjun, we can burn, kill and plunder here, store some food and grass, wait for the army behind to gather, and then enter Jingzhao County, and approach Chang'an City in Dahua."

The scout Shi Chief continued to feedback: "In addition, we received detailed feedback information sent to Chang'an City. The Emperor of Dahua personally led the army and led more than 100,000 troops to come north to block us. Their vanguard army arrived outside Yijun City, and was close to the edge of Jingzhao County and Shangjun. The infantry behind were slow to move and arrived in the Huayuan City area."

King Guli turned to a follower of the counselor, Tieler, who was already a little wise and famous on the grassland. He assisted King Guli with marching, camping, and settlement of details. Otherwise, he would not be able to lead troops to charge just by just a king and ignorant of the grassland who had never read books and was illiterate. He would not be able to do so.

Military advisor Han Liangwen said next to him: "King Guli, according to the marching speed of the cavalry of the two armies and the distance on the map, the vanguards of the two armies are likely to meet on the north bank of Huachishui and the west of Luojiaocheng. Dahua's vanguard army is also a cavalry. How many of them have they?"

"There are 20,000 troops back to the military advisor." Scout Shi Chang replied.

"We have 30,000, and how can the cavalry in the Central Plains be as fierce as my grassland cavalry?" King Gu Li laughed loudly, not caring about Dahua's vanguard cavalry, and even hoped to meet earlier.

"However, there were not many Dahua troops blocking the enemy along the way. It was a bit unexpected. The beacon tower kept burning, but the defenders nearby did not come out to block the enemy." Military advisor Han Liangwen was a little suspicious.

King Huoba Shichong of Guli could not help but laugh and said, "What's the matter? Dahua is mostly infantry, with few war horses, good at defending the city, and he can't stand firm and stay in the city. Even if he sees our cavalry team, 30,000 elite troops and 60,000 war horses, how dare the thousands of garrison soldiers in the city come out? Even if they come out, can they catch up with us?"

His words are not without reason. In the past, whenever the Rongdi cavalry in the grassland invaded, they would often be invincible as long as they broke into the pass and used the speed of the cavalry. Unless they attacked the city, they would fight with their own shortcomings. If they fought in the field, the soldiers and horses in the Central Plains rarely had a chance of winning.

It is because the Hu cavalry is too strong, moving at a fast speed, coming and going like the wind, and it is difficult to chase and block. If tens of thousands of cavalry charge against the infantry formation of tens of thousands of people, once the hole is torn, it will be slaughtered, and the infantry formation can be trampled into flesh mud!

Therefore, some famous generals, military masters, and frontier generals in the Central Plains used formations of chariots, cavalry and infantry cross-cooperation to fight against the Hu people. They set up obstacles such as deer antlers and thorns around the formation, and left the cavalry at the bottom just in case. As surprises for raids and escapes, this is the usual tactic of the Central Plains army.

More than ten years ago, Yang Su defeated the Turkic cavalry outside Yumen Pass and gave up the formation of the chariot. It was a bold attempt and only used infantry to deal with the Turks. This was the first time that he had fought against the grassland nomadic people since the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties. Being able to win was enough to leave a stunning mark in military history.

"That's true!" Han Liangwen was just a little suspicious, but he didn't think much about it. After all, the traditional fighting style of the Central Plains is that chariots, cavalry and infantry cooperate with combat, and defending the city is also a tradition. It is understandable that the defenders in small cities along the way dare not fight.

"If we can eat the 20,000 vanguard troops before the arrival of the main force of Dahua, we can face the mud-legged square formation behind us and give full play to our cavalry advantages. It is very likely that we can defeat the Emperor Dahua without the main force of Khan behind us!" Huoba Shi Chong was full of heroism and couldn't help but imagine.

Han Liangwen hurriedly advised: "King Guli, you cannot underestimate the Emperor Dahua. Before Shibi Khan left, he repeatedly emphasized that the Emperor Dahua was full of tricks and was good at using tricks. He led his troops to fight and had almost no results in defeat. He attacked and led his troops to come. We should not be reckless. As long as we eat the Dahua vanguard army, we cannot advance anymore. Only when we wait for Khan to lead the main force to arrive can we continue to charge!"

"Others are afraid of him, but I am not afraid of that emperor's child!"

"This is Shibi Khan's order, and you must not violate it. Please think twice!" Hanliang looked cold and did not make concessions on this. After all, before setting off, Shibi Khan repeatedly explained to him that he should not be greedy for the King of Guli, so as not to be greedy for merit and advance recklessly, so as not to be trapped in the tricks of the Great Chinese.

At that time, Bi Khan had fallen into Luo Zhaoyun's hands two or three times, so he was reluctant to accept it, but he also had a little psychological shadow.

"Okay!" Huoba Shichong heard the Khan's order and did not dare to violate it openly. He agreed temporarily. He thought to himself, and if he didn't have any effort, he would defeat the 20,000 vanguard army in Dahua without much loss of strength. There is no danger when he went to attack Dahua's main force. At worst, he would attack and retreat. Dahua infantry was all mud-legged and could not catch up. Why fear?
