One side killed extremely cleanly and efficiently, while the other died without any hesitation.
Ke E's original intention was naturally not to use the 1,600 cavalry his tribe had painstakingly amassed over the past 20 years to pave the way for Jin Cheng's meteoric rise in the Beimang imperial court.
This Qiang warrior, who was used to enjoying victory on the grasslands near Beimang, remembered the blood feud from 20 years ago, but forgot what kind of existence the enemy he wanted to take revenge on was. Before leaving his home, which could be considered a foreign land, he had heard that the Dragon-Elephant Cavalry had slaughtered their way through half of Gusai Province last year. However, he had also heard from the mouths of many Southern court people that this was only the carelessness of the defending generals of Gusai Province. He had also heard that as long as Dong Zhuo or any of the other great generals moved out, not a single one of the Long Xiang Army that had penetrated deep into the heartland would be able to return. The Beimang border army would toss the severed heads one after another along the border between the two countries.
Ke E had come for revenge, but unfortunately, his youngest son, who was still waiting for his father to return home, could only wait another 20 years before he could continue his revenge.
For the Qiang people, their nearly 100 years of exile was like walking from one foreign land to another.
He lay in a pool of blood, the sunlight above his head blinding.
Then, he saw a shadow appear above his head. It was a Dragon-Elephant Light Cavalry rider whose shoulders were one up and one down due to his injuries. Ke E struggled on his deathbed, trying to raise the blade tied to his arm.
That officer seemed to have noticed Ke E's futile resistance. He frowned, and then chopped off this Qiang youth's head. After thinking for a bit, he also chopped off the corpse's right hand.
Then, like many of the Dragon-Elephant Light Cavalry who could still fight, the officer cleaned up the battlefield, found a suitable warhorse, mounted it, and began to charge again.
In many of the rich places in the Chinese plains, no matter who killed who, most of them were filled with scheming plots and schemes. Even when gangs fought each other to the death, there might also be the competition of the government's backers and the secret instigation of schemers.
In the end, there, killing people was not fun, and dying was not fun.
However, at the border of Liang Mang, it would be very easy for people to die. Moreover, it would be as fast as the speed of arrows and iron hooves.
After killing the one thousand six hundred suicidal Qiang cavalrymen, under the leadership of Wang Lingbao and the two captains, the Dragon-Elephant Light Cavalry's warhorses slowed down and sped up in a rhythmic manner.
In this way, the warhorses could fully unleash the second wave of momentum to ensure an effective pursuit.
This was the invisible difference between a famous general on the battlefield and a mediocre general.
War, especially a local battle, naturally required ten thousand men to fight against a thousand men. However, it also required generals like Wang Lingbao who were familiar with the rules of the battlefield.
Without the former, the battle would be more difficult, but without the latter, there would only be defeat.
About half a li away, Generals Jin Cheng was completely dumbfounded. However, this middle-aged Qiang cavalryman, who was more experienced than Ke E, did not hesitate at all. Without saying a word, he led the Qiang cavalry in an arc and retreated.
The reason why they did not stop and flee was because the Dragon-Elephant Light Cavalry, whose fighting strength was negligible, did not allow them to waste even a little bit of their fighting strength.
Wang Lingbao calculated the distance between the two sides and the warhorse's speed. He squeezed his horse's belly and wanted to go to Xu Longxiang's side to tell him his thoughts. However, this young commander of the Long Xiang Army had already raised his arm and made a simple hand gesture that everyone in the Beiliang Frontier Army knew.
Quickly stop him!
Xu Longxiang, who had not displayed much fighting strength in the previous charge, had only used his war blade to kill three Qiang cavalrymen. He had only chopped off their heads.
When Wang Lingbao saw the commander jump up high and abandon his horse, he began to run with his blade in tow.
Wang Lingbao laughed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Our commander really makes one feel helpless.
After Xu Longxiang made that hand gesture, the Dragon-Elephant Cavalry that had been purposely maintaining an orderly formation finally changed.
The more than four hundred cavalrymen charged out of the army in an instant.
These elite cavalrymen decisively followed the war god commander in their hearts to kill the remaining seven thousand Qiang cavalrymen.
The aristocratic families were particular about the fact that the country could be destroyed, but the legacy of the family name could not be destroyed.
However, for an army, the backbone supported by countless martyrs could not be broken!
The backbone of the Beiliang cavalry.
It would rather be broken.
As for whether or not the Beimang had the ability to break this backbone, they would have to kill each other.
As Xu Longxiang ran faster and faster, a giant black tiger rushed to his side.
Then, the four hundred cavalrymen behind the black clothed youth and the two thousand Dragon-Elephant Cavalry saw an extremely strange scene.
Xu Longxiang bent down without slowing down, his hands grabbing the two legs of the black tiger. His body spun, and just like that, he smashed the black tiger into the center of the Qiang cavalrymen!
After the giant black tiger crashed into the ground, it continued to roll.
Dust was kicked up from the ground.
Countless mud-like corpses and a large number of people were thrown off their horses.
Scarface and Wang Lingbao's mouth could not help but twitch.
Those fellows that were smashed would definitely be in a lot of pain.
When the four hundred fast riders at the front were about to catch up to the tail of the Qiang cavalry, Wang Lingbao glanced at the large crater that was created by the black tiger's explosion. On the mashed up corpses, large flowers of blood bloomed.
