The flying guards began to clean the battlefield.

They carefully retrieved crossbow arrows from the enemy's corpses.

The number of crossbow arrows they carried was not large, only twenty per person.

It is not certain when can I supply new crossbow arrows? They must use them more carefully.

Looking at the messy battlefield all over the ground, Chu Ren couldn't help but sigh: "What a powerful crossbow! What a domineering Mo Dao!"

Yan Wen and Feng Tang also nodded repeatedly.

Soon, the three of them all fell on Li Yu again and asked curiously: "How can your Highness know that this tactic can destroy the cavalry?"

Li Yu said: "I don't know."

"ah?"

"Just feel like you can win!"

The three of them looked shocked, then looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

At this time, the main troops behind also rushed over after hearing the news.

Everyone was stunned when they saw the situation on the scene.

The commanders came to Li Yu one after another and asked in surprise: "Your Highness, why are the fights here...?"

Li Yu waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "We have met the cavalry that has been the one in Xiaoyang Kingdom here, but don't worry, this cavalry has been completely wiped out by us!"

Chen Jia and his friends looked at each other, and another commander Wang Dong said carefully: "Your Highness, look at the body, there are quite a few people in this cavalry!"

"Yeah! Nearly six hundred riders!"

Nearly six hundred cavalry, they were wiped out?

Your Highness only brought five hundred flying guards.

Looking at the flying guards who cleaned the battlefield, it seems that they have not lost much.

Infantry vs. cavalry, five hundred vs. six hundred. As a result, the cavalry was completely wiped out and the infantry was not damaged. How did this battle be fought?

Everyone looked puzzled.

Old God Li Yu said: "I have told you a long time ago that people in Xiaoyang are not scary, they are not afraid."

He raised his hand and pointed to the corpses on the battlefield and said, "It turns out that I'm right!"

Chen Jia and Wang Dong and the commanders were convinced by Li Yu's confidant. They intervened and bowed together, praising: "Your Highness's Divine Martial Arts!"

This small-scale battle not only wiped out a cavalry of the Xiaoyang Army, but its main function was that this battle greatly inspired the soldiers' confidence in fighting.

The soldiers of the capital army stepped forward one after another and helped the flying guards clean the battlefield together.

People were also amazed at the corpse of Xiao Jun and whispered in a low voice.

"Why don't these Xiaoyang people wear clothes?"

"It's all disheveled!"

"It turns out that they are all barbarians who eat raw meat and drink blood!"

"Uncivilized savage!"

The flying guards remained silent, just cut off the right ear of the Xiaojun they had killed and put it in their skin.

There are three main items to record military merits on the battlefield. One is to climb first, the second is to seize the flag, and the third is to kill the enemy.

Killing an enemy requires counting the number of heads, but the head is not convenient to carry, so the enemy's right ear is replaced.

The capital army and the Feiwei dug a hole to bury the body of Xiaojun on the spot.

The dead war horse is a very important resource, and you will take it away.

A horse weighs seven or eight hundred kilograms and can produce about three hundred kilograms of horse meat and three hundred kilograms of horse bones.

Hundreds of dead horses can produce a total of more than 100,000 kilograms of horse meat and more than 100,000 kilograms of horse bones.

Horse meat alone is enough for ten thousand soldiers to eat it for a month, and horse bones can also be used to make soup.

After cleaning the battlefield, Li Yu led his troops to continue to rush to the county town of Pyeongchang County, Pyeongchang City.

Two days later, the 10,000 troops of the capital, led by Li Yu, successfully arrived in Pingchang City.

The prefect of Pingchang County, Zhang Hong, the commander Ming Zhao, and the border general Meng Liao went out of the city to greet each other.

When they learned that Li Yu was ambushed by a Xiaoyang cavalry on the way, Meng Liao, Zhang Hong, Ming Zhao and others were shocked.

When everyone heard that the Xiaoyang cavalry was completely wiped out by Li Yu's troops, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Hong said ruthlessly: "These Xiaoyang people have actually wandered to the Jinma Mountain area! Fortunately, they were hit by His Highness, otherwise they would have caused trouble if they were in chaos!"

They talked and entered the city.

Li Yu's arrival was welcomed by the people of Pingchang City.

In fact, there are not many people left in Pyeongchang City, even less than 20,000 people, most of them are the elderly, weak, sick, disabled, and women and children.

In addition, many uninhabited houses in Pyeongchang City have been demolished, and the stones and wood removed have been transported to the city walls to serve as rolling stones, and wooden boards are also used as shields.

Walking on the streets of Pyeongchang City, the houses on both sides are sometimes without, and they are full of withering.

Li Yu got off the horse and handed the reins to Jinwu, walking side by side with Meng Liao, Zhang Hong and others.

He asked, "How many soldiers are there in the city at present?"

Meng Liao said seriously: "The capital army is 2,000, the county army is 800, and the border army is 3,000."

After a brief pause, he added: "The three thousand border troops were recruited just now, without equipment, and had not been trained."

These three thousand border troops cannot be called an army, but can only be said to be a temporary young and middle-aged people.

Such an army cannot be sent to the battlefield at all.

Once they arrived at the battlefield, they were easily dispersed by the Xiaoyang Army.

Not only will it not help our own battles, it will also affect the morale of the soldiers of other troops.

After listening to Meng Liao’s story, Li Yu thought about it. After counting this, there were only 13,000 soldiers who could fight on his side.

He asked again: "How many people did Xi Yu deploy on the border?"

"Nearly 30,000."

"During this period, they have been stationing troops on the border and keeping their troops on the ground?"

Li Yu asked in confusion.

Zhang Hong continued: "I heard from some businessmen who came from Xiaoyang that Xi Yu is likely waiting for reinforcements."

"Whose reinforcements?"

"It is said to be a tribe called God!"

"How is this possible?"

A voice suddenly came from behind Li Yu.

Everyone subconsciously looked back and saw that the person who spoke was Xi Zhuo.

Xi Zhuo took a few steps quickly, came to everyone, frowned and said, "The God Tribe never participates in foreign wars!"

Li Yu snorted and said, "You didn't say that they never interfere in the internal affairs of other tribes!"

Xi Zhuo's face changed and he remained silent.

Meng Liao, Zhang Hong and others didn't know Xi Zhuo and asked, "Your Highness, this person is..."

"Xi Zhuo!"

"who?"

Meng Liao's eyes widened suddenly, and his hands subconsciously raised, holding the hilt of the sword.

Li Yu waved his hands to Meng Liao, Zhang Hong and others, indicating that they should not be nervous.

He said: "Xi Zhuo had no place to establish a foothold in the territory of the Su Nu tribe, so he fled to the Great Zhou and sought our help."

Meng Liao's hand holding the hilt of the knife slowly released.

He snorted heavily and said, "A betrayal dog!"

Xi Zhuo looked angry.

If Li Yu said this, he would have tolerated it.

But he couldn't bear it when he said it.

But before Xi Zhuo could speak, Meng Liao said seriously: "Your Highness, this person is not trustworthy, and even more unreliable!"

"Oh? Why did General Meng say this?"
