My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 22 A great victory
These Hu cavalrymen are usually herdsmen from the Zade tribe, and they can gather into an army because of Zador's status as the young patriarch.

Now that Zador was dead, the Hu cavalry were thrown into chaos, and a great panic quickly spread among them.

"Run away!" I don't know who shouted first.

Then, the Hu cavalry, which had lost all order, began to flee frantically.

This is the nature of the Hu people. When they are in a favorable battle, everyone will strive to be the first, for fear that the good things will be snatched away by those before them.

But once they were defeated, everyone would turn around and continue to fight bravely, for fear that they would run slower than others and die tragically at the hands of the enemy.

"Hahahaha! Big brother has killed the enemy general in the battle line, and the Hu people have collapsed without a fight!" After killing a Hu cavalryman who panicked and bumped into him with a sword, Lu Bu excitedly ran to Lu Yi and cheered.

"Brother, do not relax. You should use your remaining courage to pursue the enemy. Now is the best time to destroy the enemy. Quickly lead your men to pursue the Hu cavalry. Remember to capture as many war horses as possible!"

Lu Yi wiped the dirty blood splashed on his face by Zador, smiled as well, and urged hurriedly.

"Yes! Brothers, follow me and kill all these untamed wolf cubs!" After receiving the order by clasping his fists on his horse, Lu Bu led Gao Shun and other thirty or forty riders to chase after them.

Now the Hu cavalry have lost their courage, and even one Han cavalry can easily chase four or five Hu cavalry. Therefore, as long as they don't chase too far, there will be no danger.

After Lu Bu attacked, the leader of the small group of Hu people who had been rescued by Lu Yi before immediately came to Lu Yi on horseback. Before he got close to him, he jumped off his horse and knelt down in front of Lu Yi.

"The Eternal Heaven is above. Hatler, the young chief of the Hunye tribe, thanks the Han hero for saving his life. Please give me a name so that everyone in the Hunye tribe will know who should be thanked!"

"So you are the young chief of the Hunye tribe. I am Lü Sixiao of Lü Yi in Wuyuan County. Let's not talk about repaying you for now. The battle is not over yet. You should restrain your people and wait for my pursuit troops to return before we make any plans!"

"I will follow the orders of my benefactor!" Hatter saw with his own eyes that this heroic young man, who was only a few years older than him, cut the throat of his enemy Zador with a clean and neat spear. Therefore, he was not only grateful to Lu Yi for saving his life, but also had great respect for Lu Yi's martial virtues. So he simply took the order and left, restraining the remaining troops on the spot and not allowing them to move a single step.

Seeing that Hatter was relatively well-behaved and his guard was slightly lowered, Lu Yi separated five or six riders and ordered them to hunt down the scattered horses of the Hu cavalry. The rest of the men remained in the temporary camp and did not come out, waiting for any changes.

Soon, Hou Cheng brought back more than 30 war horses, except for those that had run far away.

Except for two injured horses, the remaining thirty are usable strong war horses and are worth a lot of money!
Half an hour later, Lu Bu, who was sent by Lu Yi to pursue, also returned safely with the spoils.

"Brother, this time we can say it's a blessing in disguise. We really made a lot of money!" Before he got close, Lu Bu shouted excitedly, and the guys who were chasing with him also cheered.

Only a dozen or so unfortunate Hu captives tied to horses had faces full of fear, as if they had lost their parents.

They were originally excited to think that they could follow the young chief Zador to fight a non-threatening ambush. Later, even if they encountered Lu Yi's caravan, they would just treat them as fat sheep delivered to their mouths.

But what no one expected was that when their group of greedy wolves, which had the advantage in numbers, rushed into the sparse flock of sheep, they found that the fat sheep that had just been tamed suddenly tore off the camouflaged sheepskin on their bodies, revealing their true appearance as tigers, and defeated them miserably.

"Oh? What are the results of the battle that can make Fengxian so excited?" Seeing this, Lu Yi became interested and asked with a smile.

"We chased them for half an hour and killed hundreds of Hu cavalrymen, but only dozens of them escaped."

"This pursuit not only captured more than a dozen people, but also seized more than seventy war horses. Other items such as scimitars, bows and arrows, and leather armor are even more than the number of war horses!" "Haha, these Hu people have always been looting, and this time they have hit a wall for us!" Gao Shun on the side also made a rare joke.

"All this is thanks to big brother's good command!" Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, Hou Cheng and others also came to Lu Yi and praised loudly.

"This battle depends entirely on the lives of all of you brothers. We must reward you. Anyone who participates in the battle will have their monthly salary doubled, and those who guard the camp will have their salary increased by 50%!"

Looking at the heads of the Hu people and the one hundred war horses hung on the mounts of Lu Bu and others, Lu Yi couldn't help feeling happy, and he shouted loudly to bring the atmosphere to its peak.

"Thank you very much, boss!" Now not only Lu Bu and others were excited, but all the shop assistants and coachmen were also jubilant.

"And besides!" Lu Yi shouted again, interrupting everyone's cheers.

"Shedding blood and sacrificing one's life on the battlefield is a man's nature, but I cannot let my brothers shed tears after leaving the battlefield. All the buddies who died in the battle will receive a compensation of 10,000 coins. In addition, if the families are unable to support the orphans, the elderly and the young, they can be sent to my house and Lu Yi will take care of them on their behalf!"

"From now on, if there is another fight, follow this example!"

"Thank you, Master Lu Yi!"

"Master shopkeeper is wise!"

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.

On the one hand, these knights joined Lu Yi's caravan because they admired Lu Yi's character and reputation, and on the other hand, they also wanted to rely on Lu Yi for a living.

I thought being a waiter was a status similar to that of a domestic slave, but I didn't expect Lu Yi to treat them so well. Not only did he give them super-standard pensions, but he also provided support for the families of those who died in battle.

What kind of benevolence and righteousness is this?
For a moment, everyone wanted to die for Lu Yi.

Even Hao Meng, who always had his own little plans, was very excited at this moment. He felt that he had found a good brother, and his loyalty to Lu Yi increased a lot.

No matter whether they were knights-errant, rickshaw drivers, accountants who followed the team, or most of the ordinary people of this era, they were all pitiful people before the coming of troubled times. Their demands were simple: if anyone was good to them, they would be willing to risk their lives to fight him.

Five years later, Zhang Jue was able to deceive countless people into following him by relying on a fictitious vision of a prosperous era.

What Lu Yi is giving out now is real welfare, how can these people not be moved?
After feeling the cheers from the crowd, Lu Yi's heart was also filled with waves.

This was a feeling that he had never and would never be able to experience as a commoner in his previous life.

"The injured guys must be taken care of properly. Cheng Lian, you will be in charge of this matter." After sighing for a moment, Lu Yi came back to his senses and gave instructions to Cheng Lian.

"Yes!" Cheng Lian was a straightforward person and left in a hurry immediately.

"What should we do with these prisoners? Should we kill them all and cut off their heads for pickling?" Gao Shun suddenly asked.
