Murong Chui smiled and waved his hand: "You are talking about ordinary cavalry, light cavalry or non-armored cavalry. The impact of these cavalry is not strong. They are not as heavily armored and invulnerable as the Ju armored cavalry, so they cannot be resisted by long iron armor.
, No matter how heavily equipped the infantry is, they will fall down if they are hit head-on by armored cavalry. The denser the formation, the more people will fall under this kind of impact. Several rows, or even a dozen rows, will not be able to be knocked down in pieces like this.
strangeness."
Having said this, Murong Chui looked at Huan Xuan, who was thoughtful: "Huan Shizi, I think your father must be deeply impressed by this."
A trace of resentment flashed in Huan Xuan's eyes, but it disappeared for a moment, and turned into a smile: "When my late father was dying, he still couldn't forget the battle of Fangtou.
His momentum, that was the most impressive battle in his life, and he will never forget it until his death, you are absolutely right."
Murong Chui nodded and sighed: "The Jingzhou infantry are extremely excellent infantry. It can even be said that before I saw the Beifu Army, they were the strongest infantry in the world. They have superb combat skills, strict discipline, and orderly advance and retreat.
The speed of running eight hundred miles in three days, and the tenacity of fighting in formation on the battlefield and preferring death to retreat are all impressive. But the reason why they lost was because their formation was too tight and too dense.
, under the impact of the armored cavalry, they fell in pieces. When dealing with ordinary military formations, the back rows support the front rows, but they suffer the consequences when faced with the impact of the armored cavalry."
Huan Xuan and Murong Lan suddenly realized it and said in unison: "So that's how it is."
Murong Chui's eyes flashed coldly: "But the formation Liu Yu has set up now is a semicircle formation, or an arc formation, with an empty center. Each team has fifty people, only two rows in front.
The assault is forward, but there is nothing behind, and the distance between people is also very loose. How do you think about this array, how to deal with the cavalry assault?"
Murong De on the side said: "Obviously it won't be a frontal hard top. I think if it is hit like this, it will disperse quickly."
Murong Chui shook his head: "But the armored cavalry of our army are connected by iron chains. Even if they are scattered, they will be dragged down by the iron ropes. I see this formation. Most of the people in the front are the leaders of each team. In the end,
The elite warriors may not break up the formation, but will counterattack in a short distance!"
Murongde was surprised: "Counterattack?"
In front of the Beifu Army formation, Liu Yu and the captains and deputy captains of the eight squads stood together. The armored cavalry on the opposite side had begun to walk slowly and entered the stage of horseback riding. Although it seemed very slow now, it was more than two miles away.
The distance was only three minutes, and the war horse could speed up to reach them. Taking advantage of the last moment, Liu Yu began to make tactical arrangements.
Liu Yu's eyes were fixed on the line of armored cavalry that was charging across the chain, and he said: "Brothers, this battle is extremely dangerous. The circular formation we practiced can finally be used. It's just that
We didn’t know before that the enemy cavalry also had the ability to charge with a chain, so the conventional side attack tactics of breaking up the formation can no longer be used.”
Liu Jingxuan spat on the ground angrily: "These swallow thieves can actually string their handles together. Damn it, grandma, I think as long as you focus on one, if that one falls, the whole row will fall!"
Liu Yu shook his head: "It's okay to deal with ordinary war horses, but the protection of these armored horses is very tight, and ordinary crossbows cannot penetrate it. We have been fighting for so long just now, and the bows and arrows and crossbows have long been used up. Even the flying spears, there are not many left."
, we can’t form a group to kill, we can only fight in close combat.”
Xiang Jing's eyes widened: "How are you going to fight with the charging horse? If I had known earlier, I should have brought Juma here."
Liu Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "So the only way is to see if our team is upright. Only if we take the lead in attacking, just like before, take the initiative to jump up and kill a few knights, and then knock down the running horses, can they make the entire row of cavalry fall."
Affected."
Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth: "It's too dangerous. They have horses. If we jump over and beat them like this, we're afraid that if we don't hit anyone, we'll be stabbed to death."
Liu Yu shook his head: "There is no other way. This is the only way. The infantry will never be able to withstand their impact here. If they disperse, they will be tripped by the ropes. If God bless us, we can kill a few Yan army cavalry.
It is possible to bring down a whole row of their horses. As long as there is any obstacle on the ground, their impact speed will be slowed down."
Liu Jingxuan sighed: "I think there are twelve or three of us who just don't want to die. If we can kill three or four, it will be good. Is there a better way to send slaves? If not, let's break up the formation now and disperse the guerrillas."
also."
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, spread out and shoot them one by one with bows and arrows. These armored knights are also very skilled in their bows and horses. Either we don't have a chance, or those auxiliary horses."
Liu Yu said, pointing to the more than 200 auxiliary horses with their heads down and grazing behind the formation.
Liu Jingxuan reacted immediately: "Jinu, you want to..."
Liu Yu smiled slightly, with a flash of light in his eyes: "Yes, I am going to use these deputy horses as a cover to counterattack!"
Murong Feng was on a white horse with a silver spear, covered in silver armor, and was holding a red cherry spear. Following the second row of armored horses, three accompanying guards followed him and started galloping, asking as they galloped: "
General, why don't you rush to the front today like before?"
Murong Feng said coldly: "I'm not afraid of Liu Yu, but he is too cunning. In two hours, our more than 3,000 cavalry were almost wiped out, and we were the only ones left. Fortunately, now
All his tricks have been exhausted, and the broken bows and crossbows have also stayed in the position just now. They can only rely on these infantry to hold up, but he will never wait for us to attack. There must be other ways. I can't rush to the front.
, if we are hit by a move and are knocked down, then everyone will lose control and be slaughtered just like Murong Bao's subordinates just now."
The guards laughed: "Let's just say, when has King Yidu ever been afraid of the enemy? Those Jin troops are really not afraid of death. Are they going to face our attack like this?"
Murong Feng smiled slightly: "The Wu soldiers did not know how to ride horses. They formed a scattered formation, probably because they were afraid of our impact. However, they did not expect that we had iron ropes, and even dispersing would be useless. They are excellent warriors, so,
It is our honor to make them fall under the hooves of our horses. However, we still have to watch out for Liu Yu and the others to jump up and kill the knights on the horse like they did just now. I will wait after the continuous riding formation. If such warriors attack,
Just kill it with a spear and a bow and arrow, do you understand?"
Several guards said in unison: "No!" At the same time, they took off the long bow from their backs and strung the arrows.
Murong Feng lowered his composure and stared at the Jin army formation about 300 steps ahead. Suddenly, something moved in his heart: "Where did Liu Yu go!?"
