Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 78 Karasuma Cavalry
"Karasuma cavalry? How many troops are there? Have you ever investigated?" Zhao Lei shouted in his heart that it was Karasuma's troops and asked hastily.

"Back to Governor Zhao, the spies initially reported that there were about [-], but there may be more than this number." The soldier said.

"It must be the reinforcements brought by Zhang Jiao." Lu Zhi said.

"Your Excellency is wise, besides King Karasuma, there is also Zhang Jiao, the rebel," the soldier said.

"More than 5 cavalry, I'm afraid it's hard to deal with!" Lu Zhi frowned and said, obviously worried about the huge base of the enemy's cavalry.

"Don't worry, my lord. We have the walls of Beiping as a barrier. Those cavalry are only suitable for field battles. As long as we order the cities of Youzhou to hold out, these cavalry are useless in siege battles. Then we will seize the opportunity. Attack their weaknesses and counterattack," Zhao Lei said.

After listening to Zhao Lei's words, Lu Zhi felt reasonable.Fear before fighting, this should not be what a general should say.Lu Zhi put away the emotions in front of him, and said to the soldiers: "Send an order to send more spies to investigate the intelligence of the Karasuma Army, and notify me as soon as there is news."

"No," said the soldier.

"I just sent away the trouble of Zuo Feng, and another Karasuma came. After all, Zihan is really good at predicting things. You can guess that Zhang Jiao went to the barbarians to borrow troops. You are too powerful." Lu Zhi is very headache.

"My lord praised me, but my subordinates just made some inferences based on the changes in the situation." Zhao Lei said.

"Then what do you think our army's odds are for this Karasuma attack?" Lu Zhi still seemed a little unconfident.

"Does your lord think that our army of big men can't defeat these barbarians?" Zhao Lei asked back.

"It's not my opinion, but the difference in the types of arms. We can't fight in the field, but can only choose passive defense." Lu Zhi said.

"My lord, sometimes defense is an effective offense," Zhao Lei said.

"How much does that Zihan think our chances of winning?" Lu Zhi wanted to know how sure Zhao Lei was this time.

"I can only say this, as long as the adults have a chance of winning, the subordinates have a certain chance of winning. If even the adults don't have confidence, how can our subordinates have the confidence to win this war?" Zhao Lei said Very ingenious.

"Hahaha, among my subordinates, you are the first one who dares to speak to me like that. But your words are indeed reasonable, okay, let's fight this last battle with all our strength and wipe out Zhang Jiao completely." Lu Zhi resumed In the mood, he said impassionedly.

"Yes, this subordinate obeys." Zhao Lei said.

"General Tiangong, after I help you take Hebei this time, don't forget our agreement." King Karasuma said as he was fiddling with the tiger skin on his chair.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as your lord can help me conquer Hebei, the money, food and population of the entire Youzhou will be yours." Zhang Jiao said.

In order to defeat Lu Zhi, Huangfusong, and Zhao Lei, Zhang Jiao did not hesitate to use all the people of Youzhou as bargaining chips in exchange for Karasuma's military assistance.

"Okay, my lord will definitely help General Tiangong defeat your enemy Zhao Lei." King Karasuma said.

"And those subordinates who surrendered to Zhao Lei, Liao Hua, Gong Du, they are all going to die." Zhang Jiao added through gritted teeth.

Knowing that Guan Hai was beheaded, Jicheng was lost, and many counties and counties in Yijing, Beiping and Youzhou all surrendered, and that the one who surrendered was Zhang Jiao's greatest enemy, Zhao Lei, Zhang Jiao wished he could swallow Zhao Lei alive.This time, with an extremely angry mood, he brought this group of Karasuma soldiers here to avenge their shame, and wanted to settle the old and new scores with Zhao Lei.

King Karasuma valued Zhang Jiao's eagerness for revenge, so he asked Zhang Jiao for a price.From the few boxes of gold at the beginning of the negotiations to the entire Youzhou now, the lion opened his mouth wide, it can be said that he is not greedy.But Zhang Jiao has no other choice, now there is only one way for him to take revenge, because after losing Youzhou, his influence in Hebei is gone.And Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, who were fighting in the Central Plains, were already dying, and they were beaten to death by the imperial army.So he can only rely on the strong fighting power of the barbarian army to regain everything he lost.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Lei is good at using tricks. In any battle, he will only set up an ambush, and will not fight directly, so your Majesty must be careful." Zhang Jiao reminded kindly.

"I have known for a long time that you Central Plains people are extremely treacherous, not as honest and honest as the people on our grasslands. But my Karasuma army is well-trained, how can a small ambush hurt our army at all. And I predict that the imperial army will definitely Don't dare to fight my cavalry. On the plains, their infantry has no advantage. If they fight us, it will be a disgrace. In this way, they are only left to defend the city, but there is no city to be Our hero Karasuma can't break it." King Karasuma dismissed Zhang Jiao's words very much.

Zhang Jiao is also weak now, with only two thousand soldiers in his hands.Faced with Karasuma's cynicism, he could only swallow his anger.As long as Hebei is pacified, he can regroup, recruit troops, and restore his original strength.

The Karasuma army set up camp [-] miles outside the north gate of Beiping City. The camps of ethnic minorities are very different from those of Han people.They will not surround the entire camp with wooden fences for protection.The way they set up camp is to find an open space directly, and each person pitches his own tent, which is different in color, shape, and size.Of course, King Karasuma's tent is the most eye-catching, and the largest blue tent at a glance is King Karasuma's tent.

Zhao Lei followed Lu Zhi up to the tower, and saw camps of various sizes and shapes in the distance slowly stretching out in an open space.The Karasuma people are also nomadic people. Just like the Xiongnu who were rampant in the Western Han Dynasty, they have no fixed residence, and they all make their homes all over the world.Wherever you go on horseback, you can pitch a tent there and become a writer.This is the scenery outside the city of Beiping. At first glance, it really looks like you are on the grassland.

"All the soldiers guarding the city must give me [-] points of energy, and the Karasuma people will report immediately if there is any movement." After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he walked down the tower.

"Zihan, I think the Karasuma people have lost their money this time. There are at least 8 cavalry troops." Lu Zhi said.

"Eighty thousand?" Zhao Lei asked in surprise, this is not a small number.Although Zhang Jiao's troops had reached more than 20 to 8 before, they were not regular troops. The Yellow Turban Bandit's regular army was only [-] in Guan Hai's hands.And Karasuma is a nomadic people, men, women, and children can ride and shoot. It can be said that they are all soldiers. These [-] people are soldiers who can recruit and fight well, and the population base is really strong.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lei calmed down, and said: "So what if we don't hold out, as long as we can't hold on, their cavalry will be useless. The walls of Beiping City are strong, and there is a moat as a barrier, and we have enough food and grass. , Karasuma people can do nothing to us." Zhao Lei said.

"I'm not thinking about simple defense now," Lu Zhi said.

"Does your lord want to destroy these [-] Karasuma cavalry?" Zhao Lei guessed.

"With so many troops, it will definitely become a threat to our Han Dynasty in the future." Lu Zhi said.

Zhao Lei found it funny after hearing Lu Zhi's words, where will the Han Dynasty and Hebei land be divided up by your subordinates.It will be their business to deal with these cavalry at that time, so what are you worried about, Lu Zhi.And I, Zhao Lei, will run back to my Yangzhou to develop.

However, Zhao Lei wanted to return to his thoughts, and said: "That being said, our troops are inferior to the Karasuma Cavalry, and we must focus on sneak attacks in order to defeat the enemy with minimal losses."

"Zihan's words are right. Now that the enemy army has just arrived and their morale is high, we can only hold on. When their morale drops, it's time for us to take the initiative." Lu Zhi said.

"My lord is a lesson." Zhao Lei said.

How will this war of nations caused by Zhang Jiao proceed?
