The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry! They were Cao Cao's elite cavalry force!
The members of this unit were all handpicked from the best; to exaggerate a bit, they were all capable of serving as generals in Cao Cao's ordinary troops back then!
They were just ordinary soldiers in the "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry," so you can imagine how powerful they were in combat.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry can be considered the top cavalry unit among the armies of the Three Kingdoms period.
An ancient book says: "The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under Chun's command were all the most valiant and elite in the land, some of whom were promoted from the rank of centurion." This shows just how elite they were.
One Tiger and Leopard Cavalryman is worth several ordinary cavalrymen!
Of course, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry requires a lot of points; a Tiger and Leopard Cavalry template requires 50 points.
As Qin Ze finished speaking, the system voice sounded again.
[Use points to redeem the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry vehicle template!]
The next moment, a well-organized army of ten thousand cavalrymen appeared before Qin Ze.
Qin Ze looked at the ten thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry outside the tent and was extremely excited.
These ten thousand people stood in neat rows, their unstoppable momentum awe-inspiring at first glance.
With these ten thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, even if we encounter Hu horses several times our size, it will be no problem!
Moreover, during the battle with Huma, one can gradually increase the number of people by using the points accumulated!
At this point, Qin Ze had over 600,000 points remaining. The next moment, Qin Ze turned his gaze to the [Generals].
To fight against the Hu cavalry on the grasslands, it is essential to assign a suitable general to this army!
Throughout history, there was a famous general whose reputation spread far and wide, and who was known to everyone on the battlefield!
This person was extremely skilled at leading cavalry in battle!
Historically, at the young age of 18, he led 800 cavalrymen in his first battle against the Xiongnu, achieving a great victory and annihilating more than 1,000 enemies. He was then named the Marquis of Champion!
At the age of 22, he received the highest praise for a military general: the title of "Fenglang Juxu"!
From then on, it became a symbol of military achievements for strategists throughout history, and the highest honor that all soldiers strive for throughout their lives!
Qin Ze looked at the name on the list of five-star generals and, without the slightest hesitation, chose to exchange it!
"Huo Qubing!"
[Ding! Points have been used to redeem the five-star general Huo Qubing!]
[Ding! Five-star general bonus, troop combat power increased by 30%!]
Seeing the 30% increase in combat power, Qin Ze was overjoyed. He knew that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were already very strong, and now that they had received a boost, they were practically a ferocious army!
Although they appear to be 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, their actual combat strength is at least equivalent to tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers!
Just then, the autumn wind blew, and the yellow sand on the battlefield swirled, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves rang out.
Qin Ze stared intently and saw a man riding a horse approaching from not far away.
The newcomer was very young, with a handsome face and a resolute expression. His eyes revealed intelligence and wit. His silver armor gleamed in the sunlight, and he held a plum blossom spear, which added to his imposing presence.
Back then, Huo Qubing relied on this plum blossom spear to rout the Xiongnu army and conquer five Xiongnu states in just a few days!
Just then, the young general who had arrived on horseback came to Qin Ze's side.
"This humble general, Huo Qubing, pays his respects to my lord!"
Huo Qubing dismounted, knelt on one knee, and bowed to Qin Ze with clasped hands.
Qin Ze quickly helped him up, saying, "General, please rise, there's no need for such formalities!"
"Yes, my lord!" Huo Qubing replied with a faint smile.
Looking at his appearance, Qin Ze was overjoyed. With such a good general leading the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, how could he not defeat the barbarian cavalry!
"The border of Northern Liang was repeatedly invaded by foreign nomadic tribes, and the people were living in misery."
"You will command these ten thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Tomorrow, you will accompany me to Tiger Rong Pass to quell the Hu Ma rebellion!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Qubing's eyes immediately sharpened.
"Barbarian cavalry? It's my lord! This humble general will surely cut them down!"
Subsequently, Qin Ze began to arrange the troops for the expedition.
He currently has 14,000 Qin elite soldiers under his command, as well as the newly added 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Among them, Qin Ruishi had 6,000 cavalrymen, and Qin Ze spent another 120,000 points to exchange for 6,000 fine bows for this cavalry unit.
At this point, I've used up almost all my points.
Considering that Jubeichuan was his base and his family was also there, although the bandits had been wiped out, there were still bandit problems in other parts of Beiliang.
Relying on the local military commanders would definitely not work.
Therefore, Qin Ze decided to set out on the expedition tomorrow, taking only 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and 5,000 Qin elite cavalry with bows on their backs.
The remaining nine thousand Qin elite soldiers, led by Dian Wei, guarded the northern border!
In this way, he could confidently lead his troops to quell the rebellion.
Meanwhile, Qin Ze originally wanted each soldier to carry a week's worth of rations for this expedition, but Huo Qubing suggested that only three days' worth of rations were needed.
Qin Ze knew that Huo Qubing was extremely skilled in grassland warfare, so he listened to his advice.
That very night, Qin Ze ordered his soldiers to prepare their weapons and equipment, and to set off for Hu Rong Pass early the next morning, a journey that would take a day.
........
At night, the sky was dotted with countless stars, and several camps stretched for dozens of miles across the Beiku Grassland. The campfires lit within the camps illuminated the entire Beihu army camp.
Countless Northern Hu soldiers moved back and forth in the camp; each of them was burly, with broad shoulders and thick waists.
From some of the tents came the cries of women, followed by the arrogant laughter of the Hu cavalry.
These women were all local people from the border area. They were abducted by these barbarian horses for pleasure, and each of them suffered terribly.
