Since King Wuling of Zhao promoted Hu's uniform and cavalry, the combat power of Zhao's cavalry has entered a period of explosive development. Among them, the strongest combat power is Li Mu's army. Due to the years of fighting with the Huns, Li Mu's army has always been in a state of combat readiness. As long as the military order is given, the top combat power of Zhao will immediately take action and crush the enemies blocking them into pieces.

In the north of Handan City, Li Mu's vanguard was advancing forward with all his might. They had only one task, that is, to rush back to Handan as quickly as possible, and tell the defenders there that General Li Mu would return. As long as they hold on to the city, when Li Mu rushed back, Zhao would have hope of victory.

"Driving"

The horse's hooves rolled up the withered turf and brought countless smoke and dust. The cavalry of the brigade galloped on the wide plain. The soldiers holding the flag held high the battle flag. On it was a big Zhao character. Since receiving the general's order, the cavalry has rushed to Handan day and night. The long-distance raid exhausted their physical strength. However, in order to arrive one day earlier, they did not choose to rest, but continued to move forward. Only when the horse's strength was insufficient and they could not continue, they would stop and make some adjustments.

What no one knew was that just across the mountain, the equally tired Yuezhi cavalry were also moving forward desperately. Compared with the original date, they arrived one day earlier than the expected time. Because they did not know the situation on the opposite side, it would be easy to alert the opponent when they rashly went up. Fengzhuang asked the troops to stop and sent scouts to go up first to see the situation.

The hill in front of me is not high, and it should be more appropriate to describe it as a soil bun. There is no vegetation on it and there are no large rocks. It is like a small checkpoint, just crossing the necessary road to Handan. If you follow the official road, you will definitely have to take a detour. However, considering the time is tight, the cavalry of Zhao chose to cross directly. Because they did not know the situation across the mountain, they also sent scouts to climb the mountain.

In this way, the scouts from both sides suddenly met without knowing each other

Xileng is the captain of the Yuezhi scout. With a strong figure, he has a very meticulous heart. His outstanding overall view and ability to adapt to the situation have made him the captain of this scout team in a short period of time.

"dismount"

At the command of Xiling, all the scout teams they belonged to jump off their horses. Riding a war horse on a war horse was not a good choice, because at this time, the four-legged war horse did not run faster than the two legs. Tighten the belt, Xiling was the first to climb to the top of the mountain.

Scouts with a little experience know that if they discover the enemy first, they can master the initiative first, and a mature general can turn the initiative into victory little by little. So when Xileng lay on the ground and looked at the opposite side, the scouts of Zhao State rode their war horses to the hillside.

Just one glance, Xilian's cold sweat came down at that time. There were plains on both sides of the mountain. Whoever could occupy this commanding height first could launch a condescending attack. For the cavalry, speed was their weapon. Whoever had a fast speed and strong impact force would be able to penetrate the opponent's formation and split the opponent with his men and horses in half.

He pulled the soldiers beside him and Xi Leng said to him seriously: "When you can rush to the bottom of the slope as fast as possible, even if you get out, you have to send the news to the army and remember it clearly. The opposite is the cavalry of Zhao State. Whoever occupys the commanding heights will take the initiative."

"The opposite is the Zhao cavalry. Whoever occupys the commanding heights will take the initiative." The soldier quickly repeated it, saluted the military salute, and ran to the foot of the mountain.

Xilian pulled out the scimitar from his waist and directed his scouts to hide on the other side's path. When the other party reached the top of the mountain, both sides began to turn around desperately. The soldiers who reported the news brought a series of dust. He was afraid that the speed was not fast enough and he really rolled down. When Fengzhuang started climbing the mountain with the Yuezhi cavalry, the scout of Zhao on the opposite side had just approached the top of the mountain.

Before the first Zhao soldier to the top of the mountain had time to take a breath, the figure that had risen on the ground rushed to his side. The sharp scimitar slid across his body without any obstacles. Before the severe pain came, the soldier had already fallen heavily to the ground.

Yuezhi's clothing with great ethnic characteristics is also easy to recognize as Zhao Jun's uniforms. As soon as the two sides met, they immediately fell into a melee.

"Kill"

Xileng quickly avoided the opponent's slash, and grabbed the scimitar and instantly cut the opponent's throat. Zhao Bing next to him took advantage of Xileng's moves and wanted to come and attack. Unexpectedly, another Yuezhi scout rushed up and took over his move. Not only that, he also launched a counterattack.

Such a big noise on the top of the mountain can't be hidden from the Zhao army at the foot of the mountain. The general who commanded the army is very experienced. Just one look, he understood his own situation.

"Everything is fast, speed up, if you can't occupy the commanding heights, everyone will wait for death here."

The Zhao cavalry, who had been exhausted, accelerated the speed again. No one cared about his horsepower. The figures that were galloping by were like a torrent, pushing upwards quickly along the earth slope, but the upwards were already laborious, the slower the speed. Although the repeated urging the war horse under his crotch, the war horse was already exhausted, and the muscles on his four legs were shaking constantly. This speed could not be raised anyway.

At this moment, a row of black shadows suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain. They sat upright on the horse, waving the scimitar habitually. In the middle of them, a big flag with the word "Feng" was whistling in the wind. The Zhao cavalry, who were still climbing up desperately, couldn't help but stop. Everyone understood a fact in their hearts, that's it's over.

Feng Zhuang sat on the war horse with a stern face and slashed the scimitar forward with a very slim slash. The Yuezhi cavalry on the left and right suddenly made a wolf-like roar. They saw them holding the scimitar high and urging the horse forward. Taking advantage of the trend of the hillside, they rushed towards the Zhao cavalry on the opposite side.

"Clang"

The soldiers in the front row collided heavily. The huge impact force not only knocked the opponent and the horse to the ground, but also threw the Yuezhi cavalry on the horse's back high. But it didn't matter. The cavalry behind by virtue of their superb equestrianism, bypassed the obstacles in front of them and rushed forward frantically from the gap.

With just one confrontation, the cavalry of Zhao State was defeated. The cavalry that could not raise speed could only become a target and was slashed and killed by the opponents who quickly passed by. So the cavalry in the rear turned their horses and fled desperately to the foot of the mountain. Only God knows how much the Zhao army, who had exposed their backs to their opponents, could escape. To be continued.
