Both sides were clearly familiar with this most mobile unit from the cold weapon era.

Almost as soon as this thought arose, a cavalry unit that had already reached its maximum speed charged forward, kicking up a cloud of dust as it raced towards the retreating troops.

Damn.

Watching Bise, who was at the forefront of the cavalry, Gujan was shocked and quickly urged his horse towards Jangi.

However, setting aside the riding skills, how could the burly Gujan, who was clad in bronze armor, possibly outrun Bise, considering the mobility of light cavalry? Bise's armor was specially customized with over 70% made of leather and only a few small bronze pieces protecting vital areas like the heart and back, all to reduce weight and maintain his speed during the charge.

This area was the only relatively suitable terrain for a cavalry charge on the entire road to Son City.

Further ahead, once they entered the steep mountainous region, the cavalry would find it impossible to charge effectively.

Therefore, this ambush was perfectly timed and positioned from certain perspective by Z utilizing the cavalry charge tactic could be considered an expert in surprise attacks.

Just as the moment passed, the 500 light cavalry led by by Z swiftly closed in on the fleeing enemy troops.

Without hesitation, they unleashed a signature two-stage charge, delivering a devastating blow to the infantry unit before them.

Bise, who was leading the charge, locked onto the enemy commander Jangi.

With a flick of his bronze spear, he thrust into the fray, riding his white dragon and blending man and horse into one as he flew past.

giving the enemy no chance to react or resist.

The spear tip glinted coldly, and with the momentum of the charge, it created a blurred shadow, piercing directly through Jang Wei's throat.

He cleanly and decisively ended the life of this enemy commander.

Bise's performance was undoubtedly satisfying.

But what pleased Luo Gi even more was the overall performance of a cavalry unit.

They were no longer a rookie unit that only knew how to charge.

After extensive real combat training on the grasslands, every move they made exuded a sense of sophistication.

After the two-stage charge, the entire unit quickly split into two, swiftly forming an encircling formation, cutting off the retreat of the fleeing soldiers while simultaneously tightening their formation and continuously finishing off the remaining enemies.

After the battle, as Bise rode up slowly, Lu Gi had a satisfied look on his face, whereas the moods of the other two were not so good.

One was Gujan, who was upset that Ba had swooped in and claimed to kill, taking away the credit for a significant achievement.

After chasing for so long, it was only natural that Gujan's mood would be sour.

The other unhappy person was Burjud, who had arrived with the Bow Cavalry unit.

The bow cavalry's main attack method was archery, but's light cavalry charged ahead, making it difficult for the bow cavalry to take action, leaving them to watch as the light cavalry swiftly resolved the situation without them being able to contribute.

For a moment, the two who had never met before were now casting displeased glances at by Zay and Unison.

Luji noticed this and chuckled, introducing them to each other.

Bise and Burjud had fought on the grasslands for many years while Gujan and Guaja were seasoned in the western campaigns.

So their mutual understanding was limited to having heard each other's names.

During their formal first meeting, Baise inadvertently caused the other two's visible displeasure.

After learning from Lu Gi that he had taken Gujin's kill, Baise quickly cuped his fists towards Gujan and expressed his apologies.

In response, Gujan's expression relaxed considerably.

Being a straightforward man, he wasn't one to dwell on such matters.

It was just that after fighting for so long.

Having it suddenly taken away was understandably frustrating.

As for Burjude, who was still sulking, Bise decisively ignored him.

As the saying goes, rivals are found among peers.

They were both cavalrymen and since they had been in the grasslands for a long time, it was difficult for the two to avoid competing with each other.

In fact, they had been competing on everything from military campaigns to trivial matters.

In one regard, Burjude had achieved overwhelming victory.

Both of his sons were already capable fighters.

While Bise was still stammering in front of Lu Yuan, not acting like a man at all.

Of course, this was a trivial matter, and Beirigjud would only bring it up to tease by Z occasionally, not taking it to heart, as he was a proud eagle of the grasslands.

If they were going to compete, it had to be over military achievements and results.

As a result, the entire grasslands were nearly thrown into chaos by their rivalry, causing the tribes to flee at the mere sight of them.

This time, the reason they arrived late was because they had inadvertently gone too far in their competition and ended up deep in the grasslands.

Unlike Lu Yong, who was stationed at the city when they received Lu G's recall order, they were already nearly a week behind schedule, and they had only just started heading towards the battlefield.

After calming down his three generals, Lu G finally turned his attention leisurely to Guya, who had arrived late.

Bye and Burajigjud being newcomers were clearly unaware of the situation here and unfamiliar with the terrain.

Undoubtedly, the arrangement for this cavalry ambush had come from Gujia's hands.

Gua reporting to the leader.

You did well this time.

I'll remember your merit.

I know you've been thinking about my tea leaves.

I'll share some with you later.

Guia's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Thank you, leader.

Chapter 284.

He started to panic ever since he Ching Xian sent him a batch of tea leaves last time.

Lu Gi had developed a habit of drinking tea.

However, tea was a luxury in his possession.

To what extent was it a luxury? Simply put, in the entire civilization, Lu Gi was basically the only one drinking tea.

After all, there wasn't much stock left, just enough for him to drink.

When he took them back to Ming Jing City for rewards, he casually had someone brew a pot of tea.

And ever since then, Guja had been fixated on those tea leaves.

However, this also solved a problem for Luo Gi, rewarding Gua.

According to his position as a military strategist, Guia's status was already extremely elevated, and there wasn't much room for promotion.

Therefore, every time he achieved something, Lu Gi could only reward him with some items.

How about rewarding some money? After a few times, Guja has become quite wealthy, so giving him more money doesn't hold much significance.

Therefore, Lu Gi could only find something rare to reward him.

Once, when there was nothing good to give, Lu G directly asked Malang to find a quality young horse to send him.

This shows just how troubled Lu G was by this issue.

But now, it's better.

He can reward some tea leaves.

Though, it's a pity for his limited stock.

After a simple reward, Lu Gi decisively returned to the main topic.

It seems you know what I'm going to do next.

Go J's ability to see through the enemy's strategies and counter them with his extinction plan talent is something Luo G remembers very clearly when using strategies in front of this kid.

One must be fully mentally prepared.

On the other hand, Zhok Donan strategic arrangements were clearly seen through by him and more likely than not.

They aligned with Lu G's thoughts.

That's why he could directly bring by Z and Buu rigid to this position to cooperate with Luo Gi<unk>'s actions without much communication after just arriving in Dong Jing city.

Hearing Luo Gi's words, Guia smiled slightly.

The scouts sent to Song City had already returned to report that the city s garrison commander Wong Tong should be living quite comfortably now, right? Upon hearing this, Lu Gi also grinned and said, "Then I can rest assured I'll leave things here to you.

I need to head back to Sea City to take a look as the main event is over there.

Gui accepted the order.

Riding the blazing fire, Lu Gi led Zhao E and his personal guard back to Sona City.

Along the way, Zhao Yi<unk>s emotions were hard to calm down.

The lineup of generals under his new leader was even stronger than he had expected, which suddenly made Zhao E, who was originally very confident in himself, feel a bit insecure.

There's no need to mention Luo Yong, who had previously killed Lu Hu with a single ax.

Ziaoan, who later arrived with reinforcements to Sangha City, also gave him an extraordinary impression.

Gujan, whose strength could overpower Jang Wei, was even more impressive.

Although Baise had some element of opportunism, that shot that killed Jang Wei still left Zhao in awe.

Besides that, there was also Buigid and Gua later on.

Thinking of this, Zhao inexplicably felt a sense of worry about his future among such a group of strong soldiers.

Did he really have a chance to stand out? He began to panic.

Just like that, Zhao returned to Songha City in a state of inner turmoil.

By the time they entered the city, it was already close to sunset.

But Songha City was still under their control.

The outcome of the city defense battle was self-evident.
