Chapter 855

"What?" Lin Qingye stood frozen in place. He had never expected that Liu Zhaoji would actually grant him command over eight hundred cavalry. These were the elite of the Great Ming! During the Imjin War, the sight of the Great Ming cavalry charging back and forth through the enemy lines had left an indelible mark on the hearts of the Joseon people, even years later. In their eyes, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry were heavenly soldiers. Liu Zhaoji’s cavalry were nearly identical to the Liaodong Iron Cavalry of old. No... they were even stronger! Although Lin Qingye was a Deputy Regional Commander of the Great Ming’s Guan-Liao-Deng-Jin naval forces, his duties were confined to the navy; he had never had the chance to lead cavalry into battle. Now, the opportunity had arrived. It was both a test and an expression of trust.
