Chapter 371 (1/2)

Li Guo took the disabled cavalry around for a long time before returning to the camp, and Cao Bianjiao finally stopped and returned.

When I went there, there were 10000 cavalry, but only about 3000 came back, which made Chuang Wang completely crazy. If it weren't for his own nephew, I was afraid I would have to cut Li Guo on the spot.

No need to ask Chuang Wang and the people also know that most of them were ambushed. The cavalry of the Chinese army did not leave, but hid near Xuzhou.

But after hearing Li Guo's narration, the people were still shocked and surprised at the reaction speed of the Chinese infantry and the ferocity of the cavalry.

”Your Majesty, although general Li lost more than 6000 horses in this war, he also killed tens of thousands of Chinese troops, which can only be regarded as a draw. However, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army and the cunning of the red lady are still far beyond our previous estimates. We need to deal with it carefully next.”

As soon as the military master hugged his fist, he was obviously worried that Chuang Wang would be dazzled by anger and do something radical.

But I was very helpless. If the Chuang Wang was not greedy for small gains and insisted on a surprise attack, he would not give the other party an opportunity. He lost 7000 horses in vain before the war.

Chuang Wang just nodded with a gloomy face. Other generals also understood that the war was said to be a draw. It was all about sticking gold on his face.

The key is that there are three thousand cavalry soldiers hundreds of miles from Luoyang, which is far from ensuring the safety of grain roads. That means sending more infantry to escort grain and grass. Once the war drags on for a long time, the consequences are unimaginable.

Although he suffered a great loss, he still couldn't stop the pace of rushing south, but he was much more cautious than before.

Three days later.

The red warbler finally came to the southwest of Xuzhou with her army and stopped. The third town stationed in Ruzhou came here six days ago and built three strong camps.

Obviously, as the military division of Chuang Jun expected, the red warbler did not dare to retreat again, because all parts of Ruzhou in Nanyang are harvesting wheat, so the battlefield must not be put in Ruzhou and Nanyang.

Xuzhou is undoubtedly the most suitable place.

Just the next day, the vanguard force of 100000 troops arrived 30 miles away from the Chinese army camp. The rest of the troops also arrived one after another in the next two days.

On a hill, the red warbler took a team of cavalry to visit the camp at the first time. Looking at the camp in the distance, she didn't have much confidence in her heart. There was a big gap in troops.

Even if the three towns meet together, there are only about 40000 people. The only trump card is the 7000 cavalry. As for the 30000 cannon fodder troops, it's OK to defend and fight with the wind. The field charge can't be expected, nor can the red warbler.

”General Cao, if our army wants to defeat Chuang army in this war, I'm afraid we have to rely on the cavalry to take the lead in the charge. I hope you'll be ready.”

The red warbler sighed and said solemnly to Cao Bianjiao.

”General, don't worry. All the soldiers of Xiaoqi camp are ready to wrap up their bodies!” Cao Bianjiao hugged his fist. As a veteran of the war, he naturally understood that there was such a great disparity between the enemy and our forces. The Chuang army was not a mob like the legend. If he wanted to win, he had no choice but for the cavalry to take the lead and disrupt the enemy's formation, and the infantry to hide and kill.
