Chapter 364 Save some face for Governor He
Thousands of horsemen galloped towards them in the wilderness, and the power of the galloping horses was enough to make anyone terrified.

The Ming army in the south has few horses, and it is rare to see large-scale cavalry. The soldiers of the Ming army were shocked to find that this was probably the largest horse army they had encountered since their expedition.

Seeing the cavalry coming all over the field, their roaring bodies shook the heaven and the earth, and their momentum was frightening. Many famous generals knew the strength of Wei Wujun.

"Since they have one man and three horses!" Ma Xianglin saw that there were only three thousand cavalrymen rushing towards them in the distance, but there were tens of thousands of troops rushing forward. So he took a closer look and found that almost every horseman was followed by two cavalrymen. Warhorse, his heart suddenly trembled.

The Ming army wished for three people to ride on one horse, but the Wei army was so good that one person had three horses, which is really incomparable.

It's not that Gao Yihuan wants to show off his wealth. He does have a lot of horses now, but he doesn't have time to train a new horse army, so he first enriches the mobility of the tiger and dragon riders.

The generals heard the sound, looked carefully, and found that there were indeed three horses alone, and their expressions were immediately stunned.

Seeing this scene and seeing the overwhelming infantry behind the cavalry, the generals were already timid, and the civil servants who had never seen anything in the world were already not calm.

Fu Shangrui only glanced at it, but he didn't dare to look any more. He exclaimed, "Gao Yihuan has such a strong family background. Where did he get so many war horses?"

Zhang Xianbi on the side was probably bought by Gao Yihuan, "I guess he got it from the Tartars by fighting against the Qing army."

When He Tengjiao heard this, he became even more frightened. Gao Yihuan beat up Donglu and even robbed so many war horses. Isn't it like playing with me?

When Yang Wenyue saw a group of officials behind him, their faces were pale with fright, and they were talking a lot, and couldn't help feeling annoyed.These people don't drink tea in the yamen, what to do with them, and now they are scared to death before the battle is fought.

During the expedition, the Huguang Third Division had great confidence in capturing Jingzhou. Many officials followed them in order to make some achievements. He Tengjiao usually took good care of his own people. Regardless of their ability, as long as they were his people, he would do his best. promotion, so he tacitly allowed them to follow.

If civil servants in this troubled world knew about military affairs, they would be promoted much faster than those who read rote books. Everyone originally wanted to gain some credit and make their qualifications look better.

If there is one, following He Duxian, defeating the thieves, and regaining Jingzhou's qualifications, it is obvious that there are still many advantages in terms of promotion and assessment.

But this time everyone was unlucky, the credit was not taken, and there was one more stain.

If they could choose, they would definitely choose to stay and drink tea in the yamen, and they would definitely not follow He Tengjiao.

"Why don't they stop?" Suddenly an official exclaimed.

Everyone looked at Ma Jun in a daze, and waited for Xuanhuying to gallop to the front, and then everyone realized, yes!How do they stop?

Ma Jun was extremely fast, and he was one mile in front of the formation in the blink of an eye. He Tengjiao came to negotiate, so he stood directly in front of the formation.

At this time, Xu Heihu led a group of cavalry without slowing down. All the cavalry marched together. The horses in front were like a wall, and the cavalry behind them were undulating together with the horses, like undulating waves.

Thousands of hooves roared, and the civil and military forces of the Ming army immediately panicked. The cavalrymen who came like a wall frightened the two groups to fight, "No, protect Duxian!"

The formation of the Ming army lined up in a line was instantly sunken, and there was a commotion in front of it. He Tengjiao and others hurriedly turned around, but at this moment, the Xuanhuma army let out a howl, and suddenly pulled the reins, and stood in front of the Ming army formation. A hundred steps away, it split into two strands, and after a big detour, it galloped back again.

The generals protected He Tengjiao and retreated, messing up their formation at once. When they retreated into the formation, they found that the horse army had not collided with them. Their faces were gloomy and they felt ashamed.

At this time, the tiger and horse army was selected, and after showing off their power for a while, they ran back two miles, reined in their horses and stood in the wilderness.

Although the cavalry didn't move, they were astonishingly murderous, like a pack of wolves waiting for an opportunity.

There were cavalry holding down the positions on the two wings, and the battalions of the Ming army did not dare to move. Whoever loosened their formation or rushed forward might become the target of the cavalry's surprise attack.

At this time, Gao Yihuan led a large number of troops and slowly approached the Ming Array. More than [-] Wei troops were densely spread out on the ground.

Seeing the incalculable number of troops approaching the front line like billowing black clouds, the soldiers of the Ming army felt the vibration of the ground, which was transmitted from the soles of their feet to their hearts, and each of them couldn't help themselves. Looking to the sides, they saw the same panic on the faces of their fellow soldiers. .

This time, the Ming army, who was originally guilty, became even more guilty.

Gao Yihuan rode on a black horse and walked slowly forward. When the army had entered about two miles, he suddenly waved his hand, and the big banner behind him was inserted into the ground, and the advancing Wei army stopped immediately.

Historically, Li Zicheng's 40 people were chased by the Qing army and fled into Huguang.Those remnants of the Shun army and the defeated generals scared the Huguang Ming army and ran away. Now that Gao Yihuan has recruited 30 people to support the scene, the effect is naturally not bad.

"Marshal, the Ming army's line was unstable just now, why didn't Xuanhuying rush over and capture that so-called He Tengjiao?" Zhao Zhuzi saw the commotion in the Ming army just now, and said with some regret: "If he is captured, If we don't say anything, he will give it!"

Gao Yihuan gave him a contemptuous look, "It is true that He Tengjiao is the governor of Huguang, but Huguang is not his. If you capture him, Nanjing will be able to appoint a new governor of Huguang immediately."

Gao Yihuan glanced at Mingzhen, then smiled and said: "Besides, if we want to negotiate with him this time, we should save some face for Governor He. If his prestige is swept away, it will be difficult to implement the conditions he promised us."

Zhao Zhuzi rubbed his nose and said a lot, but he didn't quite understand, but he knew that what he heard from his second brother was right, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "What the commander said is reasonable, what the commander said is good."

"Commander, someone from the Ming formation is here!" Gao Chengxun who was next to him suddenly pointed at the front of the Ming formation.

Gao Yihuan heard the words, looked up quickly, and saw two Ming cavalry rushing out of the bright formation.

Seeing this, Gao Yihuan suddenly waved his whip and shouted, "Wei Wujun!"

"Unparalleled under heaven!" The soldiers behind him immediately responded loudly.

He Tengjiao, who was in the bright array, was frightened again.

At that moment, Gao Yihuan clamped his horse's belly, led nearly a hundred riders, and rushed out at a gallop.

The two cavalry that rushed out in front of the formation of the Ming army first reined in their horses and stopped. Seeing Gao Yihuan galloping over, Zhang Xianbi clasped his fists and said, "Marshal Gao, He Duxian invites Marshal Gao to enter the battle for a discussion."

The other person was Gao Yihuan. He faced Gao Yihuan with a little shame on his face, "Second brother, the Yang Fuyuan said that I will protect the safety of second brother."

Gao Yihuan glanced at him, but pretended not to hear him, and said to Zhang Xianbi: "This commander will not enter this formation. Presumably Governor He would not dare to join this commander's formation to discuss, so I will pick a ship for us. Talk on board."

After Gao Yihuan finished speaking, he drew the rein of his horse and returned to the formation, as if he didn't look directly at Gao Yizhen, Zhao Zhuzi spat on the ground, glared at the traitor with disdain, then snorted coldly, and pulled his horse back to the formation~
