In the battle between the two countries, the spies died first. In the battle between the two countries, the scouts died first. In the battle of Liang Mang, the spies and scouts all died.
In the second year of Liyang Xiangfu, in the heat of the summer, the battle had not yet officially begun, but outside the Northwest Pass there was already an atmosphere of impending mountain rain. Unlike the spies on both sides of the border who were wandering around and watching each other, after the furious Empress of Beimang issued an order, groups of Beiliang crossbowmen and Beimang cavalry began to exchange lives with each other, almost fighting to the death when they saw each other. In a short period of twenty days, more than forty battles, big and small, the Beiliang's white horse crossbowmen had already suffered more than eight hundred casualties. Dong Zhuo's black crow cavalry and Liu Gui's black fox cavalry were the main force of Beimang's scouts, and they had lost more than one thousand cavalry. As for the mixed cavalry cavalry from the Southern Dynasty's Longguan Border Army, they were even more numerous. In the world, probably only on this battlefield where yellow sand was flying could there be such extravagant large-scale battles between the enemy and their own side. It should be known that in the history of the Central Plains, there was no lack of records of a few hundred roving bandits being able to plunder several provinces, so much so that the capital was shaken. From this, it could be seen that whether it was the scouts at the frontline, the light cavalry in the field, or the heavy cavalry used to make the final decision, Liang Mang had reached the peak of cavalry battle strength that would make later generations gasp in amazement.
As the situation of the scouts on the border around Hutou City became more and more desperate, this also meant that their military strength was even greater than the previous Beimang army, and they were about to stake everything on one throw and move out in full force. When the time came, the grassland would be empty, and they would mobilize all their troops and horses to the south and kowtow to Liangzhou.
Before autumn, a battle decided that most of the scouts on both sides of Liang Mang were unable to last until autumn.
Yelu Chucai, the brother-in-law of the previous Southern Courtyard Great King Dong Zhuo, the commander of the Black Fox Bars, and Lin Fu, the trusted aide and favorite general of the Great General Liu Gui, the commander of the Black Fox Bars, used two hundred Qi Long Pass horse bars to lure the enemy deep into the Dragon Eye Plains, with a total of one thousand four hundred elite cavalry. They lured Sun Ji, one of the three captains of the Liangzhou White Horse Crossbowmen, into charging alone into the hinterland of the Dragon Eye Plains, about one hundred and sixty li north of the Hutou City. Captain Sun Ji died on the spot, while the other three captains died on the way to the rear. Only one hundred and twenty crossbowmen managed to break out of the siege and retreated to the southern end of the Dragon Eye Plains. All of them were wounded, but they were still cut off by Lin Fu's two hundred Black Fox Bars.
At this time, the cavalry under Lin Fu's command was between more than a hundred Beiliang crossbowmen and Hutou City. Behind him, the silhouette of the former most majestic city at the border of the Liyang Dynasty could be faintly seen. After Dong Zhuo broke into the city, he had climbed up the city wall and personally broken a flag with the word "Xu".
Lin Fu was wearing light armor and riding an extraordinarily handsome rouge horse. He was a remnant of the Spring and Autumn Period who had personally experienced Liu Gui's journey to the north. Originally, Liu Gui had used his military exploits to become the main force of Liu Gui's army. Logically speaking, he didn't need to personally lead the army and participate in this scout battle. However, the Black Fox Bars were Old Generals' blood, sweat, and tears. Furthermore, Lin Fu, whose ancestors were from a prominent family in the Central Plains of Qing Province, also had an old score to settle with the Xu family. Thus, he wanted to collect some interest first. Moreover, although there weren't many scouts on either side, it was obvious that the Emperor and a large group of generals were all staring at the battle reports that were sent to the imperial court. Even his benefactor, Liu Gui, who had never had any unique experience as an official, had told him in private that Lin Fu had to perform well this time. Whether or not Lin Fu could advance further in the future, and whether or not he could turn from Liu Gui's trusted aide to an important official of the Southern Dynasty, depended on this battle.
Previously, Lin Fu, who had chased after the stray dogs of Beiliang all the way to the south and didn't engage in close combat, had been very leisurely. He hadn't drawn his bow or drawn his saber. Therefore, the 200 Black Fox Bars beside him, who had been conserving their strength, were naturally more powerful than the wounded crossbowmen in front of him. In the end, they suddenly sped up and circled to the front of the Beiliang cavalry, looking very relaxed and relaxed. The Beiliang cavalry was the best in the world, and the white horse crossbowmen were crowned the Liangliang cavalry.
Sitting high on his horse, Lin Fu couldn't help but snort. It wasn't that he underestimated the strength of the Beiliang crossbowmen responsible for the direction of Hutou City, but as a Generals, Lin Fu didn't think it was worth it to die in such a cowardly manner when the enemy had such a large disparity in numbers. At the same time, Lin Fu also felt that it wasn't enough to fight to his heart's content. There were three groups of cavalry outside of Liangzhou's pass. The veteran Captain Sun Ji was in the middle, Wei Tumu was stationed at the border of Liangzhou's Liangyou region, where the two heavy cavalry groups of Beiliang had quietly exited the pass, and the new young Captain Li Hanlin's 600 cavalry mainly roamed to the north of the Qingyuan military town in Liangzhou's west gate. This time, in order to take down all of Sun Ji's crossbowmen in one go, Lin Fu had no choice but to invite the royal descendant Yelu Chucai's Crow Bars to participate in this hunt. He really didn't have any confidence in the useless horse bars trained by the nobles of Longguan in the south. They were practically a disgrace to the name of Beimang's horse bars. In a battle of equal numbers, they had no chance of victory against the Beiliang's white horse cavalry. No wonder they were laughed at by the Beiliang Frontier Army as donkey bars.
