The reason why Ma Chao was able to lead three thousand Dragon City cavalry to detour to the rear of the Xianbei vanguard army was because of Guo Jia's plan.

After Ma Chao got Guo Jia's tip bag that day, he immediately led the Dragon City cavalry guarding Longcheng to act according to the tip bag's plan, leading three thousand Dragon City cavalry north to march towards the home bases of Xianbei in Liaodong and Xianbei in western Liaoning.

Since the Xianbei vanguard army attacking Liaodong was composed of Liaodong Xianbei and Liaoxi Xianbei, their home base was empty for defense.

However, Ma Chao led the Dragon City cavalry to the two Xianbei tribes' nests, just to confirm whether the two Xianbei tribes had left in full force, and to ensure that when they subsequently cut off the Xianbei's retreat, they would not be cut off by the Xianbei people who stayed behind in their nests.

After confirming that only the Xianbei people, women, the elderly and children were left among the Xianbei tribes in eastern Liaoning and western Liaoning, they marched towards Liaodong along the routes taken by the two Xianbei vanguard armies.

That's why the Xianbei vanguard army wanted to retreat but found that its retreat was blocked.

At this time, facing the Xianbei vanguard army that had long lost its courage, Ma Chao showed no mercy at all.

With an order, Ma Chao led three thousand Dragon City cavalry to charge. The terrifying charge was frightening.

With the valuable combat experience of repelling Xian Yufu's army sent by Liu Yu on Liu Feng's order, Ma Chao now has the ability to stand alone.

Moreover, Niu Erwa is among the Dragon City cavalry at this time. If there are any mistakes in Ma Chao's command, Niu Erwa can also remind him in time.

Fortunately, Ma Chao had a very high talent for commanding cavalry. When he was in Xiliang, he often followed Pang De and led the army into battle.

With Pound's words and deeds, Ma Chao's ability to command cavalry is still very strong.

The last time they faced Xian Yufu's army, the reason why Niu Erwa was asked to command the battle as deputy commander instead of Ma Chao personally commanding was not because of Ma Chao's lack of ability.

It's because the Dragon City Cavalry has its own mature combat methods that Ma Chao is not familiar with, so Niu Erwa takes command so that Ma Chao can become familiar with the tactics of the Dragon City Cavalry.

After watching the battle in person, Ma Chao had completely understood the fighting methods and routines of the Dragon City Cavalry, so naturally he personally directed the battle.

In addition, after going through the job transfer hall, Ma Chao's ability to command cavalry has been greatly enhanced, especially when commanding heavy cavalry.

And it just so happens that the Dragon City Iron Cavalry is a heavy cavalry with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

And unlike ordinary heavy cavalry, which are cumbersome and slow, the Dragon City cavalry are more maneuverable than light cavalry.

Although like ordinary heavy cavalry, the warriors of Longcheng Iron Cavalry are also heavily armored and fully armed, and even their horses are strapped with heavy protective gear.

With these protective gears, the cavalry protection of Longcheng Iron Cavalry has been greatly improved, but the flexibility of the soldiers has not been affected at all, and the war horses still have enough power to run at full strength.

All this is thanks to the blacksmiths of Longcheng and the horse training farms of Goguryeo.

Dragon City blacksmiths all came through the job transfer hall. Starting from the first-level blacksmiths, they have the ability to change the weight of the tools they make.

Therefore, although the cavalry of the Dragon City Iron Cavalry are fully armed, from soldiers to horses, they are all covered in heavy armor, and this layer of heavy armor is thicker and more defensive, but it is lighter than the armor of the light cavalry.

When soldiers put on such armor, they will not feel the weight of the armor at all, thus reducing the burden on the soldiers, allowing them to make more relaxed movements, and their combat effectiveness is naturally improved.

In addition to blacksmiths, Goguryeo's horse trainers also played an important role.

The war horses they trained have stronger endurance and faster speed, which also improves the combat effectiveness of the Dragon City cavalry.

In addition, the Dragon City Iron Cavalry itself is a seventh-level unit, much higher than the Xianbei army.

Therefore, when Ma Chao led them to charge into the cavalry of the Xianbei army, they were like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep, and the charge was unstoppable.

These Xianbei cavalry vanguards had just been ambushed by the Longwu soldiers and felt deep despair. Originally, the cavalry should have an absolute advantage in fighting the infantry, but they did not expect that the Longwu soldiers would become a nightmare for their cavalry.

The powerful crossbow held by the Longwu soldiers has almost become a lingering shadow in the hearts of the Xianbei cavalry.

Every time the dragon soldier pulls the trigger of the powerful crossbow, a sharp arrow made of pure steel will shoot through the bodies of at least two people.

Originally, they thought that as long as they rushed over and fought hand-to-hand with the dragon warriors, they would be able to use the advantages of the cavalry to suppress them.

But they didn't expect the war horse to collide with the Long Wu soldiers. They only paused for a moment at most, but the war horse seemed to have hit a thick city wall and fainted directly.

The appearance of the Dragon City cavalry once again made the Xianbei cavalry feel desperate.

The extremely sharp swords and arrows in their hands were actually unable to penetrate the armor of the Dragon City cavalry, but the spears in their hands could easily kill them.

The leader clearly looked like a teenager, but his marksmanship was so proficient that no one could get close to him.

After a fierce attack, the boy who was originally thought to be the breakthrough turned out to be the person who killed the most Xianbei soldiers.

This part of the Xianbei vanguard was blocked by Longwu soldiers in front and charged by Longcheng cavalry in the rear. They had no way to advance or retreat and collapsed almost instantly.

What made them collapse even more was that the leader of the Longwu soldiers, a strong man as tall as a black tower, holding double iron halberds, was reaping the lives of the Xianbei cavalry like Hei Wuchang.

The leader of the Dragon City Iron Cavalry, a handsome young man with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes who looked less than ten years old, had a tiger-headed golden spear in his hand, like Bai Wuchang, sending countless soldiers into the underworld.

Then Longcheng Iron Cavalry and Longwu Soldiers converged and hunted down the front part of the Xianbei vanguard army, and it didn't take long to destroy the entire vanguard army.

Subsequently, Ma Chao followed the plan in Guo Jia's bag and led the Dragon City cavalry to attack the territories of Xianbei in eastern Liaoning and Xianbei in western Liaoning.

It had been previously investigated that the two Xianbei tribes had sent all their warriors to the battlefield in Liaodong, so Ma Chao did not hesitate and directly ordered the Dragon City cavalry to attack their tribes.

It didn't take long for the Dragon City cavalry to slaughter all the Xianbei troops.

Then Ma Chao asked the Xianbei people to mount Xianbei war horses and flee north.

At the same time, Xu Rong, who had obtained the tip bag, led 20,000 Longcheng City Guards into Xuantu to resist the attack of Fuyu's army from the north.
