But Su Tianqiang retreated with ten thousand cavalry and rushed back all the way, and finally met the army led by Su Chengyun halfway.

Seeing these cavalrymen running back in a panic, Su Chengyun frowned, a trace of ominousness flashed in his heart, and hurriedly drove his horse to meet him.

Su Tianqiang also saw Su Chengyun from afar, his face changed drastically, and hesitated to walk up, drooped his head and shouted: "Father-in-Law."

"Tianqiang, what's going on? Have you encountered the enemy's large army? Where is the dragon bird?" Su Chengyun asked with a little anxious look.

"I..." Su Tianqiang's mouth moved twice, but he did not dare to say anything.

"Tell me! What happened?" Su Chengyun felt even more ominous in his heart when he saw this, and asked in a more intense tone.

"Back.... Go back to the father-in-chief, we suddenly encountered an enemy cavalry on the road in the morning. Mu Longque refused to listen to the advice and insisted on fighting the enemy general. He was defeated and finally chose to surrender. The enemy was powerful and we were defeated, so we had to escape back." Su Tianqiang's eyes turned quickly and said with added fuel to the fire.

"What, do you say Longque surrendered?" Su Chengyun's face changed drastically. After changing gloomy for a few seconds, he affirmed: "No, I don't believe that Longque should not surrender. Tianqiang, tell the truth."

"Master, what the child said is true. If you don't believe it, you can ask other soldiers." Su Tianqiang winked at the knights beside him, and the others stood up knowingly and bowed to Su Chengyun: "General, this is true. Captain Mu has been captured and surrendered by his enemy general. This is what we all saw with our own eyes."

"Bastard!" Su Chengyun was extremely angry and cursed. You know, he had devoted his efforts to Mu Longque. He always treated him as his successor to train him. But he didn't expect that he would actually surrender to the enemy now. How could Su Chengyun bear it? Lin Qiao, who had been following him, was silent for a while and looked at Su Tianqiang and asked, "Tianqiang, how many enemy cavalry do you encounter have? How long is it from our army?"

"Uncle Lin, the enemy cavalry is probably less than 100,000." Su Tianqiang hesitated and said, "Especially the enemy general is very skilled. I guess he has the strength of a master. Mu Longque cannot even walk a round in his hands. As for the enemy's itinerary from us, it should be within half a day to catch up."

"Hmph! A bunch of waste." Su Chengyun, who had recovered from calmness, snorting coldly after hearing this, seemed to be dissatisfied with their ten thousand cavalry escaping back in a mess. Then Su Chengyun turned to Lin Qiaoyu and ordered: "Qiaoyu, go and order the army to speed up. Let's go and meet this enemy cavalry and this grandmaster general for a while."

"yes!"

Nearly a hundred miles away from them, hundreds of thousands of troops from Tian Qingzhou were coming slowly in an orderly manner, and under the guidance of Tian Feng, the three-talent formation began to be arranged.

Standing on the high observation deck in the formation, Tian Feng held a small red flag in his hand. He saw him gently waving his chess piece. The army below suddenly separated and turned into three streams of people and directly distributed with the observation deck as the center.

These three-talent formations are a combat formation named after the "three talents" of heaven, earth and man. The formation can be composed of tens of thousands of people or hundreds of thousands of people. The formations are composed of rangers (vigilance teams), war vanguard teams (longbow and strong crossbow troops), heavy armor teams (heavy infantry and heavy cavalry) and garrison teams (second echelons or reserve teams).

The advantage of this formation is that when fighting with the enemy, the ranger first maintains contact with the enemy, delays the enemy's actions and prevents sudden attacks from the enemy to cover the main force to launch and complete attack preparations; then the battle vanguard team uses firepower to kill and inflict the enemy; the heavy armored team uses firepower to charge against the enemy, engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy; the garrison strengthens the assault force from the front or carries out a detour from the enemy's side and back to attack the enemy. In this way, the enemy's living forces can be eliminated to the maximum extent, leaving the enemy with no way to escape.

Cao Chun stood beside Tian Feng, watching the hundreds of thousands of troops below advance and retreat under Tian Feng's command, and the formation was unpredictable, Cao Chun felt a little worried. He frowned and asked Tian Feng: "Military advisor, we set up a three-talent formation here, but if Su Chengyun's troops did not come to fight, what should we do? Wouldn't it be that hundreds of thousands of troops were in vain?

"Haha, General Cao doesn't have to worry. With General Lu taking action, Su Chengyun's army will come." Tian Feng turned his head and smiled mysteriously at him.

Cao Chun said inexplicably: "Why are the military advisors so sure?"

Tian Feng didn't explain, shook his head and said, "General Cao will find out later."

………………

Since Lu Bu captured Mu Longque and killed Su Tianqiang's 10,000 cavalrymen, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he ordered his cavalry to go on the road again and faced the direction of Su Chengyun's army.

"Are you going to take your ten thousand iron cavalry to die?" Mu Longque followed Lu Bu on a war horse. As a prisoner, he was treated pretty well. He was not tied up by ropes and could ride a horse. It seemed that Lu Bu was quite good to him.

Mu Longque looked at the direction of Lu Bu's march and would definitely meet Su Chengyun's army. He felt a little funny about this. You should know that Su Chengyun has a total of 200,000 troops. No matter how strong this enemy general is, he doesn't believe that his 10,000 cavalry can beat Su Chengyun.

"You have a lot of nonsense. Remember, you are just a prisoner now." Lu Bu glanced at him and said lightly.

"Hmph! You're the one who's just you, it's not me who's asking for death anyway." Mu Longque curled his lips. In fact, he didn't have much hatred for Lu Bu who captured him, but he still had a faint admiration in his heart. After all, this man's halberd technique and strength were so smart that he gave in to him everywhere when fighting with him. This made Mu Longque, who lost his father at the age of ten, feel a strange feeling in his heart for the first time. Although Su Chengyun has always taken good care of him, Su Chengyun's training and care are extremely strict, which makes him never feel this strange warmth. That's why he is not so hatred and hostile to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu ignored him and didn't know that he had thought so much in his heart. Under their speed, he had already seen Su Chengyun's army from afar.

"General, enemy cavalry."

The coalition's outpost also discovered the torrent. Seeing the iron cavalry sprinting all over the mountains, these outpost spies ran back to the army to report to Su Chengyun.

"Are you finally here?" Su Chengyun didn't seem surprised. He drove out and looked around and observed these iron cavalry in Tianqingzhou carefully.

"Brother, it seems that the number is wrong. The enemy's Iron Cavalry seems to be only about 10,000 people, not as many as Tianqiang said as 100,000 people." Lin Qiaoyu frowned. He had guessed that Su Tianqiang lied about military affairs.
