I did it all for the Han Dynasty!

Chapter 475 Iron Fist!

"..."

Sun Ce did not hesitate for long.

On the battlefield, even a few breaths are incredibly precious, so one should act decisively when necessary!

"do not care!"

Sun Ce thought of Zhou Yu, who had already led the army to a great victory at Mangdang Mountain.

"Zhou Yu's victory in battle should have shaken the entire nation! How could I possibly accept being inferior to him?"

Sun Ce rallied his troops: "We'll treat this like walking a dog! We'll slowly wear them down!"

"Here!"

At this time, the Hebei heavy cavalry had also entered the battlefield.

Their generals naturally spotted the Han cavalry led by Sun Ce at a glance.

However, after examining its appearance, the other party couldn't help but feel somewhat confused.

Clearly, Sun Ce and his soldiers did not appear to be heavy cavalry of the Han army.

But right now is clearly not the time to care about those things!
Once heavy cavalry begins their charge, they cannot stop!
Crush! Crush! Crush!

Crushing everything in its path is the sole mission of heavy cavalry on the battlefield!
Whether infantry or cavalry.

Whether it's living beings or flags.

Crush them all, bury them in the mud! Make the enemy tremble with fear! Make the enemy shudder! Make the enemy never want to be your enemy again!
"Rush over!"

"Here!"

This heavy cavalry, which had been showered with countless sums of money by Yuan Shao and fed with countless taxes from the people of Hebei, was now galloping freely across the open plains!
And what happened next was obvious: the enemy was smashed to pieces, his flesh torn apart by the horses' hooves, becoming the record of merit for this most expensive army!
but……

"Damn it! Who was the commander of that Han cavalry unit? Why did they just run away?"

The Hebei heavy cavalry charged forward desperately, while Sun Ce's Han cavalry also ran back as fast as they could.

This perfectly normal scene made Yuan's cavalry general feel that something was wrong!

The durability of heavy cavalry was not something that Zhang Liao alone could consider.

The Northern Zhao court was also full of hidden talents.

Yuan's generals had long studied the endurance and tactical execution capabilities of heavy cavalry on the battlefield.

It was precisely for this reason that Yuan Tan brought his heavy cavalry to Jiaodong, intending to place the battlefield in the narrow mountain valleys of eastern Jiaodong and annihilate the Han cavalry.

It was precisely for this reason that Yuan Shao agreed to let Yuan Tan take away almost all of the heavy cavalry from Hebei, essentially entrusting the survival of Northern Zhao to Yuan Tan.

However, as the situation developed, Yuan Tan's initial tactics and strategies all failed.

The final battlefield for the Hebei heavy cavalry was not in the narrow mountainous terrain, but on the boundless plains, the plains that best showcased the mobility of cavalry.

Such terrain is obviously perfect for light cavalry.

But for heavy cavalry, it was a nightmare!
Chase! Keep chasing!
Several times, just as the Hebei heavy cavalry was about to catch up with the Han light cavalry led by Sun Ce, the enemy suddenly accelerated and once again left the Hebei heavy cavalry far behind.

After several attempts, Yuan's cavalry general finally became enraged.

"They did it on purpose!"

Even though he understood everything, he was already in a bind!
At the worst possible time, Yuan Tan ordered the Hebei heavy cavalry to come out in full force!

It's like a dam; once it's breached, there's no stopping it—it can only keep moving forward! Forward!

Moreover, Yuan's soldiers could clearly sense that Sun Ce was leading them in circles.

Even though they were in the open field, Sun Ce deliberately didn't run in a straight line. Instead, he changed direction several times, taking the most difficult routes possible.

If this continues... the invincible Hebei heavy cavalry might not even be able to touch the Han army, and will be exhausted by Sun Ce!

"This can't go on!"

Yuan Jun's cavalry general finally realized what was happening!

Sun Ce is treating them like dogs!
Although it was extremely humiliating, Yuan Jun knew he could not continue the pursuit!
If they continue the pursuit, the invincible Hebei heavy cavalry will be exhausted to death before they can even show their power! Feeling his horse's increasingly heavy breathing, the Yuan army cavalry general took a deep breath: "We're not going to pursue anymore! Where is the Han army's main camp?"

"southwest!"

"Head southwest!"

Watching helplessly as Yuan Jun's heavy cavalry brushed past him, Sun Ce wiped the sweat from his brow with regret.

"If only we had chased them a little longer, maybe I could have outrun them myself without Wen Yuan and the others."

The lieutenant, slightly out of breath, complained, "General, you're disobeying orders on the battlefield. You should think about how you're going to explain this to His Majesty after the battle!"

Sun Ce's expression froze instantly.

He asked tentatively, "Is it too late for me to find a beautiful woman to send to His Majesty now?"

"If the general is not afraid of his mother's punishment, then go ahead and search."

"..."

……

"Bo Fu, this is reckless!"

Upon learning that Sun Ce had taken Yuan's heavy cavalry for a stroll, Huang Gai finally sighed helplessly.

Zhang Liao, riding on the Ferghana horse given to him by Liu Miao, put on his iron helmet, revealing only his sharp eyes.

“Bo Fu did the right thing. It was truly unexpected that Yuan Tan would send out heavy cavalry so early.”

Zhang Liao had no idea what had happened on Yuan Tan's side that led him to make such a wrong decision.

On the battlefield, an order, whether given a minute earlier or a minute later, can make all the difference!
This time, Yuan Tan clearly chose the worst possible time to send out his heavy cavalry!
Especially after Sun Ce's maneuvering, Zhang Liao couldn't help but doubt how much fighting power the Hanbei heavy cavalry would still have when they charged towards him...

Silent waiting.

Only when dust appeared on the horizon did Zhang Liao take a deep breath and take the sickle-shaped spear from his horse.

"Two or three!"

"Here!"

As the heavy cavalry of Hebei drew ever closer, Zhang Liao remained seething with resentment.

Just like an arrow hidden in one's heart, the bowstring is constantly being stretched and stretched...

The Han heavy cavalry on the side felt the same way; even their warhorses could sense this aura and eagerly pawed at the yellow earth with their hooves.

Two or three...

As the heavy cavalry from Hebei drew ever closer, until he could clearly see their banners and commanders, Zhang Liao finally unleashed his pent-up momentum—

"kill--"

"kill!!!"

The Han heavy cavalry responded with a thunderous roar, like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky! Like arrows released from a bow, they charged straight towards the Hebei heavy cavalry, whose numbers far exceeded their own!

The Yuan cavalry general on the opposite side finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhang Liao leading his infantry.

After being led around like dogs by Sun Ce's light cavalry for a long time, the Hebei heavy cavalry's stamina had dropped considerably.

The enemy was afraid they wouldn't be able to fight the Han army's heavy cavalry, but fortunately, they've finally found their target...

wrong!

Yuan Jun's cavalry general suddenly noticed something was amiss!
How come the Han army's heavy cavalry is so fast?
No! Those weren't heavy cavalry!

The other person's pupils constricted sharply!

Huang Gai and Han Dang, who were at the forefront, continued to imitate the Battle of Mangdang Mountain. As they approached Yuan's army, they suddenly turned around and fired heavy arrows with willow-leaf tips directly at the Hebei heavy cavalry!
Behind these heavy arrows was the iron fist of the Han army led by Zhang Liao!

Zhang Liao braced himself against the stirrups and, with the aid of the Ferghana horse, raised his gleaming spear.

"Those who offend our mighty Han will be punished!"
