“Kill, Kill, Kill! Kill the beasts of Bingzhou!” The general of Sun Ce’s heavy cavalry shouted out. His eyes glowed excitedly as if the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry was about to be defeated.

“Yuzhou Cavalry?!” Lu Bu finally figured out where these cavalries came from. Based on the character on the war flag and the mark on the armor, these are definitely the Yuzhou Cavalry! These are the heavy cavalry unit Yuan Shu spent several ten thousand to create. The Yuzhou Cavalry was really an old rival. When Yuan Shu fought his way to Xuzhou, Liu Bei, Lu Bu, Sun Ce and Cao Cao lay siege on Yuan Shu. It was at that time when the Yuzhou Cavalry made their appearance.

The 7,000 Yuzhou Cavalry soldiers was Yuan Shu’s trump card. It more than doubles his fighting capabilities. It was able to counter Lu Bu’s and Cao Cao’s heavy cavalry. Sun Ce and Liu Bei could only retreat after meeting the heavy cavalry because they did not have enough at the time.

If it was not because of the Yuzhou Cavalry, Yuan Shu would have been extinguished a long time ago.

The Yuzhou Cavalry belonged to Yuan Shu but when Yuan Shu lost his reputation, the Yuzhou Cavalry broke up. A portion of them perished and a portion of them remained with Yuan Shu. The remaining Yuzhou Cavalry went to Sun Ce, Chen Lan and Lei Bo.

The ones that remained in the Yuan Shu Army lost their lives fighting Liu Bei and Cao Cao. The ones that were taken away by Chen Lan and Lei Bo were mostly destroyed on Bagongshan by Lu Bu’s Army but there were about 800 of them that escaped. These 800 cavalry soldiers also joined Sun Ce’s Army.

Sun Ce took the sea route from Liaodong to transport horses and then search for good to ride the horses such as the previous Yuzhou Cavalry . The 5,000 Yuzhou Heavy Cavalry was then set aside to prepare as a gift to Lu Bu.

“Just a defeated opponent!” Lu Bu’s eyes continued to flash. He really did not expect Sun Ce to have 5,000 heavy cavalry soldiers. Not to mention that their strength is about the same as Cao Cao’s Ferocious Cavalry. What about it! In the end, they were opponents that were defeated before! When the Yuzhou Cavalry engaged with the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, the Yuzhou Cavalry lost and the Wolf Cavalry won. The Wolf Cavalry is still the strongest cavalry.

“5,000 against 5,000 they may not be a match for the Wolf Cavalry but what about today?” Lu Su sneered. There are 5,000 heavy cavalry soldiers and a large number of troops and horses. On the other hand, Lu Bu only has 1,500 heavy cavalry soldiers. Lu Su would eat up Lu Bu.

“Is that so!?” Lu Bu looked at Lu Su. “Then you are truly optimistic!” (TN: After all, I have plot armor!)

1,500 cavalry soldiers going against 5,000 cavalry soldiers? Few fight against many? Nine of their earlier battles, when the Wolf Cavalry was just starting out and only had a few hundred, they dared to face the assault of 30,000 Wuwan Cavalry soldiers. It was not something Lu Bu took pride in but the only way out for the cavalry is assault. To retreat would only mean a dead end for the cavalry.

“Wolf cubs! Tell me! Are you scared?!” Lu Bu raised the Neptune halberd and shouted. “Now there are 5,000 cavalries and many more soldiers ahead of us! Tell me! Are you afraid?!”

“Not afraid! Not afraid!” The Wolf Cavalry roared loudly.

“Not afraid? Encouraging morale?” Lu Su looked disapprovingly

. In the face of absolute strength, any kind of skill is useless. This was something you, Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian, taught me.

Lu Bu did not reply to Lu Su and only spared him a glance. “Are you hungry?”

“Hungry! Starving!”

“Then go and tear them up!” Lu Bu licked his lips. “The hunting begins! All units! Charge!” Lu Bu charged towards the Yuzhou Cavalry like a golden ray of light.
