Chapter 203 Turnabout Victory
Translated by Ga me the Wolf Cavalry soldier’s armor for me to see!” Lu Su cozhou Wolf Cavalry They had spears, shi+elds and heavy armors that looked si Those were heavy ar the city This is because while defending a siege, the battlesuch heavy equipment would make a person exhausted and it would be impossible to defend the city However, the soldiers on Wan Cheng could fight while wearing these heavy ar since wanted to look at the heavy arnored the sweat and blood on the heavy armor and picked it up His heart immediately sank not because the arht! Lu Su estiht 20 jin at most!
Lu Su looked serious “Give me your armor!” He looked at a nearby Sun Ce soldier and commanded
“Yes!” Why would the military advisor want an armor? The soldier questioned in his heart but he still took off the heavy armor Only a few of the common soldiers actually had armor It was mostly plated with a bit of leather It was only capable of defending their vitals Other places like their arh both arh roughly the saht arht hand, he held a heavy armor that protected almost every part of the body except the face and the joints The armor even protected the soldier’s hips
Despite one being a light arht was about the same This hy Lu Su’s heart sank He does not kno heavy the Yuzhou Cavalry’s equiph at least 100 jin Even after surrounding thezhou Wolf Cavalry would still be more powerful than the Yuzhou Cavalry
What does this mean! This ht of the Yuzhou Cavalry Both the soldier and the horse were carrying twice the weight! That Yuzhou Cavalry is now chasing the Wolf Cavalry Had he known about this, he would not have ordered the Yuzhou Cavalry to chase the Wolf Cavalry as there would be too many losses Heavy armor was not popular because it was too heavy Only the extremely study soldiers would be able to wear it Ordinary soldiers could barely walk ht if they wore heavy arht as the coine how Lu Bu ed to mass produce these armors
Now Lu Su can only hope that the Yuzhou Cavalry’s horses were better than the Wolf Cavalry’s horses That way, they would have a chance of defeating the Wolf Cavalry Afterl all, the Yuzhou Cavalry’s horses were all i Those with bad physical condition have all died at sea, leaving behind the strong horses Lu Su did not believe Lu Bu was able to replenish his horses This is because Lu Bu has offended Cao Cao and Yuan Shao He would need to cross these two men’s territory to obtain horses
Both Yuan Shao and Cao Cao would never give Lu Bu horses This is why the horses used by Lu Bu could only be the leftover old horses or weak horses obtained from a noble’s black ? Thinking like this, Lu Su’s mood improved After the defeat of the Wolf Cavalry, they could obtain all the arle set of heavy arood horse Not to ht
Lu Su wanted to take back these heavy ar Army had these heavy armors, he would be able to find a way to mass produce this armor That way, they would be able to offset the lack of horses
Dong dong dong The sound of the horse galloping could be heard The sound was followed by neigh Lu Su knew that the outco stench of blood was spread fro him to frown As expected, there would be heavy casualties The earlier battle already cost thee Ever since the start of the chase, Lu Su already prepared himself to lose more than half of the Yuzhou Cavalry However, if they could destroy the Wolf Cavalry and Lu Bu then it would be worth it
They would beco The least that could happen would be Sun Ce feeling heartbroken and the nobles vo the attack on Lujiang As the noble fa, they wouldthe Wolf Cavalry’s equipth would double
Dong dong dong The soldiers seen as heroes to Lu Su finally appeared over the horizon Their blood stained figure, broken arht was
“Why is there so few left?!” Lu Su’s opened his eyes wide Out of the 5,000 cavalries were dispatched, only a few hundred remained Was the Wolf Cavalry so powerful? This Lu Bu is truly a capable person
The re hundred Yuzhou Cavalry soldiers went over to Lu Su Some of their faces were sole with blood but they did not care about it In their eyes, there was a look of deter of unease Aren’t these the Yuzhou Cavalry that have returned froh the casualties were heavy and only a few hundred out of 5,000 remained, didn’t they win? Their faces should have expressions of relief for escaping death or joy fro their enemies Most of them should also have expressions of hope for the rewards They should not have a bloodthirsty expression Did they not recover from the battle? There were some soldiers that could not recover from the effects of war Some were caused by the death of the fellow officers while others got stimulated from the blood There are also many other possible reasons
“Military advisor! Look! Look at the war banner!” As if wanting an interpretation, one of the deputy generals quickly told Lu Su about this detail
War banner? Lu Su frowned The war banners were not erected but were hidden in the crowd What about the banner?
“They did not raise their war banner!” The deputy explained The war banner was a mark of the army Sometimes, the banner fell down and caused theof defeat in the battle This is why in some battles, an expert marksman will try and shoot down the banner to lower thetheir banners sideways instead of raising it
“Perhaps they are tired!” The war banner was heavy and soldiers often take turns to carry it Perhaps after the tragic victory, they were all tired and decided to go back to camp and rest
“No! No!” The deputy did not kno to explain The flag was black! It is because it was black! “Military advisor! What is the color of our war banner?”
“It is mainly red and codong’s main troops were mostly navy but their advocate the virtues of fire This is because the old lord of Jiangdong advocate the virtues of fire This is why their banner isis black!” The deputy said as he pointed towards the cavalry
“Black!” Lu Su finally understood his unease It was not just the color of the flag Zhang Kai and Taishi+ Ci wereIf the army were victorious, these two men should be at the front of the cavalry However, Lu Su could not see their figures Even if they had perished, their corpses would be at the front, wrapped with black robes
“Enezhou Wolf Cavalry!” Lu Su suddenly noticed He finally realized what those bloodthirsty expressions were Those were eyes of hungry wolves
“Enemy attack!” Lu Su shouted in a loud voice “Battle for is not possible Their only way out is to stop the charge of the cavalries by rallying the soldiers and the use of formations
“They noticed!” From the back of the Yuzhou Cavalry, one man in a black robe shouted “Then ill just storin the hunt!” The old armor He also held a bloodstained halberd
“Lu Bu! Lu Fengxian!” Lu Su felt like he just sed a housefly He had waited here for the Yuzhou Cavalry to return victorious In the end, he met with bloodthirsty people with the eyes of wolves
Yes The few hundred soldiers were the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry They were burning ominously and wanted to spill the blood of their enemies This is because they have lost a lot of their fellow officers Out of the 1,500 soldiers dispatched, only 400 soldiers survived The dead ed!
“Raise the banner!” Lu Bu said coldly as his wound continued to bleed Yes Lu Bu was injured by Taishi+ Ci and Zhang Kai He took a risk and got hi Kai As Lu Bu was injured, he was a delicious opponent to someone like Taishi+ Ci Unfortunately, an injured beast is terrifying After Zhang Kai’s death, Taishi+ Ci still wanted to slay Lu Bu because the Wolf Cavalry is about to be finished They were also surrounded The only thing left to do was to kill the he does not want to see the most The horses that were stabbed by the soldiers could not take it any in close co the Wolf Cavalry
The soldiers of the Wolf Cavalry gave up fighting the Yuzhou Cavalry and just attacked the horses As the horses were already weak, they were easily killed Without any effort, the Yuzhou cavalry soldiers were then trazhou Wolf Cavalry seemed to have found a way out of the deadlock, their eyes beca up the Yuzhou Cavalry
A few thousand of the Yuzhou Cavalry soldiers were trampled to death because they had no horses while about 1,000 soldiers were beheaded This was not including those that were accidentally killed by their fellow officers It was as if the Wolf cavalry were placed in theoutwards Only a few hundred of the Yuzhou Cavalry, including Taishi+ Ci, noticed that the tables have turned and they escaped The rest of the Yuzhou Cavalry were annihilated This is because the Wolf Cavalry do not take prisoners Prisoners were a burden to cavalry soldiers as they would not be able to keep up with the speed
