About an hour after Geng Yan's army set out, Zhang Kan led his army out of Anle County.

Now the situation is reversed. It is Youzhou Tuqi's turn to follow others to pursue them. Their mood is indeed very different. When they are chased, they feel like a dog that is a loser, and when they are chasing others, they realize that they are the master of victory.

Zhang Kan ordered the team to advance in turn, maintaining a certain distance between the teams and following each other. At the beginning, the army was still orderly, but his team was a coalition force pieced together by each county. Most of them liked to do whatever they wanted, and the army separated the camps as they walked.

Liaodong County is the county that gathered the most cavalry this time. The county and the Liaodong vassal state commanders had more than 9,000 cavalry soldiers, which was a large force. This cavalry was unified by Ren Duwei, a vassal state commander of the Liaodong vassal state.

The commander Ren Duwei led his army to Yuyang to meet. Seeing that the command of the prefect Zhang Kan under Yuyang was only more than 6,000 cavalry under his command, the number of cavalry was much worse than that of him. He felt a little dissatisfied. However, after the orders of the people, he did not dare to openly disobey the orders.

The army was retreating all the time, and there was no decent battle. Commander Ren had a very dissatisfaction with this. He felt that he should rush forward and fight directly to let the other party see the strength of the Youzhou cavalry. Unexpectedly, Zhang Kan was so timid. Commander Ren could not ask for battle, so he had to follow the army to retreat to Anle City in a depressing manner.

As soon as he received the order to pursue, Ren Duwei felt that the opportunity to make contributions had come. He took the initiative to ask for the vanguard of the entire army. After receiving permission, he quickly gathered the troops and set off immediately, galloping all the way, leaving other teams far behind.

The Liaodong Tuqi constantly encountered the fallen scattered soldiers of Geng Yan's army. Some teams had dozens of people, some had only a few people, and even single-player travelers. They did not follow the large army for various reasons and landed behind. As a result, they were all in trouble. They were killed one by one by one by the commander Ren Duyan. They chased them all the way, and the Liaodong Tuqi beheaded more than a hundred people.

Ren Duwei thought to himself: "Zhang Kan is a timid guy. He is obviously a deserter who is eager to return to the army. He dared not pursue him boldly. If I hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, the credit for the pursuit of victory and defeat would have been stolen by others."

In the afternoon of that day, following the enemy's traces, Liaodong cavalry crossed a river. A large group of people marched in a low hilly area, with gentle curves arched on the hillsides. The earth was like a huge uneven carpet, covered with greenery all over the ground.

Not far ahead is Xu Zhen.

The slow hills hardly affect the progress of the cavalry, but they will block their sight. When they climbed up a low slope, Commander Ren suddenly discovered that in front of him, there was a team of cavalry on the low hill opposite, with about two or three hundred cavalry. The knights sat upright on the horses and looked towards Commander Ren.

Enemy! Kill!

Captain Ren issued an order without hesitation, urging his army to run, sprint at full speed, and annihilate the enemy on the opposite hill.

Thousands of horses ran together, the sound of hooves trembled, and the soldiers' expressions were particularly relaxed. In their eyes, this was a relaxed and pleasant hunt, and the hundreds of knights opposite were just prey in their paddocks.

The Liaodong Rider rushed down the hillside, and the chaotic horse hooves raised dust and grass clippings in the sky. The originally clear sky was covered with dust and sand. A trace of fresh blood was faintly revealed in the hazy dust sand.

In the face of this huge charge, the enemy on the opposite side seemed to be shocked. Instead of turning around and running away, they stood there like wood, stretching their necks and looking forward.

On the horse, the Liaodong knights had already raised the big spear in their hands, and the spear blade was shining with cold light in the sun. They were about to rush through this short distance in front of them and penetrated the sharp spear blade into the enemy's chest.

The ridge of the hillside jumped up and down with the sight of Liaodong Tuqi, and slowly began to fade. On the undulating ridge, countless hazy shadows appeared. First, they only appeared on the ridge, and suddenly they exposed their whole body.

That is the cavalry, the cavalry of the brigade!

The cavalry team that was originally standing alone on the hillside had been swallowed up by the brigade's cavalry waves. The wave rushed through the long ridge and accelerated to the downstairs of the mountain, towards the Liaodong cavalry team, and rushed down without hesitation.

Commander Ren was shocked. He thought it was just a cavalry team, but he didn't expect that on the other side of the hill, there was a large cavalry army buried!

The momentum of the charge was unstoppable. Before Commander Ren could react, the two cavalry had already collided with one place. The loud noise filled the world, and the screams stimulated the ear drums. The war showed its inherent cruelty. The originally green hillside was instantly covered with blood.

This was the first head-on decisive between the two cavalry legions. After several days and nights of pursuit and escape, the two armies finally did not escape the fate of hedging, and large-scale battles inevitably began.

Commander Ren was caught off guard and was at a disadvantage at the beginning, but he led the Liaodong Raiders, who were in battle, and although he was in adversity, he would not easily defeat him.

What's more, he knew that Zhang Kan's main force was behind him. As long as he persisted until the moment reinforcements arrived, a turning point would come.

At this time, General Geng Yan, the cavalry general, stood on the distant hillside, looking at the battle in front of him coldly. This was the battle he had expected.

His army arrived in Xuzhen at noon, and all the soldiers had a good meal and waited for the enemy to chase him.

Geng Yan didn't know if Zhang Kan would chase him. He was just betting on this last chance. If the enemy did not pursue him, he would not be able to attack again. He could only return to the camp of Jixian County and prepare to resist Liu Xiu's attack.

Then even if this eastward advance strategy was completely failed, Geng Yan was unwilling to accept it.

Therefore, he staged this scene of retreating in panic, and he had to make such a desperate stance to escape and lead Zhang Kan to chase him. In order to achieve a realistic effect, Geng Yan issued an order to force his troops and endured the resulting reduction of staff losses.

As it turns out, all this is worth it, Zhang Kan bit the hook.

Geng Yan sent a team of 10,000 people, and the two sides were of equal numbers. Geng Yan's army was waiting for work and launched a surprise attack, occupying the initiative in the war.

Geng Yan issued another order to ask thousands of Xihe cavalry to break into the enemy from the flanks and completely kill this cavalry.

Xihe Duwei Shi Yong rushed forward first, inserted it hard from the middle of the Liaodong Raiders, and cut it into two halves.

The Liaodong Tuqi is almost unable to withstand it.

Commander Ren was already sweating on his face and urged people to bring reinforcements. His nine thousand cavalry was outnumbered. If reinforcements did not come, the Liaodong cavalry would be wiped out!

Several miles behind him was Zhang Kan's main force. After the battle ahead, Zhang Kan quickly received the news and immediately ordered to accelerate his advance and reinforce Ren Duwei.

If he turned around and ran away now, he could still escape this decisive battle, but they worked hard to catch up with it, and the forwards had already joined the battle. At this time, Zhang Kan was unwilling to give up the decisive battle.
