Chapter 418: The Sad Turkic Wolf Riding
However, the Turkic cavalry that rushed out seemed a little afraid and did not continue to attack. Instead, they turned back to the gate. Soon, a team of Turkic cavalry with about a hundred people appeared. This team of Turkic cavalry was no longer wearing leather armor like ordinary Turkic cavalry, but Yishui's iron armor and iron helmets. Behind the helmet, there were two fur-like things falling behind the helmet, like the tail of some kind of animal, hanging on their cheeks. I was very curious, but from the familiar pedestals of these cavalry and their indifferent and bloodthirsty expressions, these soldiers were definitely the elite among the elite.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but squint my eyes curiously and looked at it carefully. Damn, I didn't know if I didn't see it. I was shocked when I saw it. Kang Shuoli, an old acquaintance who had been poured with high wine and wine and horse traded by Shibi Khan, was standing on the wall of the village, waving the scimitar in his hand, and his face was red and spitting, flying with stars to cheer for the elite Turkic cavalry.
Next to me, a guy wearing heavy bright light armor appeared in my sight. Well, it was Liang Shidu. His red and black face looked a little naughty at the moment. It seemed that the arrow rain that day did not hit the guy's vital point, but probably lost a lot of blood, so he still looked a little weak now.
Wei Yunqi let out a light exclaim and frowned and said, "They actually replaced people. It seems that they want to try the quality of our heavy cavalry and improve their morale. These Turkic cavalry in iron armor are probably the elite wolf cavalry around Khan. It seems that the Liang army has invested a lot, and Shibi Khan has already been moved by the chaotic Central Plains. Otherwise, Shibi Khan would not have worked so hard to help him. Not only did he borrow nearly 10,000 cavalry, but he also sent such elites."
"Wolf Rider? What the hell?" I narrowed my eyes. When Wei Yunqi said this, I really felt that the fur hanging from the cheeks of the Turkic barbarians was really like a wolf's tail. Could this be the reason for the wolf Rider?
"The Turks worship wolves and regard wolves as brave men on the grassland. Most of the bravest warriors of the Turks are now used as guards by the Khan. In addition, their helmets and armor are decorated with wolf skin or wolf tails, so they are called wolf cavalry, and they are the elite among the elite Turks. Back then, someone had seen them by the Khan Qimin, and they were also like this, with iron armor all over their body and wolf tails on their cheeks, which was extremely fierce."
"Wolf Rider? Haha, let alone a wolf, even if it is a tiger, my young master's heavy cavalry can destroy them." I smiled confidently. In front of the iron can, all light weapons are floating clouds, unless each of these Turkic wolf Riders carries a heavy long-handled weapon such as a mace.
However, this heavy weapon is not something that everyone can carry. Now it seems that these wolf riders are Yishui's scimitars. OK, let alone scimitars, even a bent sword is useless.
"From the north to the south, only this road can enter the rich Guanzhong. I believe Shibi Khan is also thinking of the same ideas as the ancestors of the nomadic peoples, wanting to enter the Central Plains. This Guanzhong is a good choice." I nodded and replied. "It's a pity that he met me, so he is unlucky."
After hearing what I said, Wei Yunqi nodded for granted and raised his thumbs to me to show that this young master is indeed qualified to say this.
Wei Yunqi's guess should be reliable, but more importantly, the Turks have always been looking at the Central Plains and envied the wealth and fertility of the Central Plains. They always hope that one day they can enter the Central Plains. The chaos of the Great Sui Dynasty, the traitors like Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou gave him hope to enter the Central Plains. Compared with the already decaying Hebei and Henan, Guanzhong, which is rich and stable, is definitely a large piece of fat in his eyes.
I even suspect that the reason why Liang Shidu attacked Yan'an County might be due to the instruction of Shibi Khan. Otherwise, how much benefit could Liang Shi have, so that the Turks not only lend a large number of other troops, but even the elite guards of Khan would appear here?
What's more, after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks came from where did they come from to the north of Chang'an? Of course, they rushed directly through the territory of the Liang Shidu, Yu's son. Therefore, this young master will never let this guy succeed, nor will his Yu's fathers' plan succeed.
Han Shiye did not launch an attack in advance. Instead, after seeing the Turkic people substitute for the game, he led the team back for a certain distance, absolutely gentlemanly and absolutely confident. Although both sides only have more than a hundred cavalry, both sides are definitely the elite among the elite.
When both sides were lined up, there was no need to shout. Both sides seemed to be at the same time, and they rode their horses and started attacking each other. The long spears or spears that were originally held high by Han Shiyan and others gradually became flat, and the spears of the spears that were astonishingly long and unparalleled taxes and profits emitted a cold light of cruising.
The hooves were like thunder and the horses were neighing like the wind. Han Shiyan and the others launched a charge silently. On the other hand, the elite iron-armored Turkic cavalry made loud roars, and the scimitars in their hands kept dancing. In the sun, dazzling arcs of light rippled in their faces, like a group of ferocious beasts that had just crawled out of hell, pounced on the trembling lamb.
Unfortunately, Han Shiyan and the others were not lambs, but beasts covered in iron armor all over their blood, like crazy rhinos, burying their heads, stretching out their sharp horns, moving forward and fearless assault.
It seemed long, but in fact, the assault on both sides was only about half a minute. The cavalry's speed had approached the maximum speed. At such a speed, the sharp spear was like a needle in a doctor's hand, and it easily pierced the armor of those people into the body without any obstacles. However, the spears in most people's hands were either picked out or avoided.
Seeing this scene, even a Han nationalist like this young master could not help but shake his head and praise the elite riding skills of these Turkic elites. Next, after avoiding the spear, the Turks raised the scimitar in their hands high, and then slashed down fiercely, bringing out a series of sad arcs of light.
In an instant, we, or the Liang-Turkish coalition forces, heard a heavy rain-like metal collision and a shocking call. Soon, one hundred riders passed by, leaving seventeen Turkic corpses on the ground. The seventeen owners' horses cried out in a woe, some fled from afar, while some turned around in place, constantly yelling with their heads to arch their master who had fallen to the ground.
After my heavy cavalry took more than a hundred steps without any damage, they then took the horse back and rotated. Seeing this scene, the Liang-Turkish coalition forces were in an uproar, and the faces of the elite Turkic guards began to change.
Yes, there were several other knights who had crossed two sections because of their excessive force, which showed that their force was so strong. However, the heavy knight in the sharp scimitar arm was completely unscathed, but a shallow depression or white mark was left at the point where they were slashed.
"This armor is the best in the world." Wei Yunqi also saw the heavy cavalry who were unharmed and were preparing for the next assault. He couldn't help but sigh. His eyes shone, his hands tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he looked like he wanted to rush forward and chop, or was chopped. However, this guy would rather not go. Although he was proficient in military strategies, his strength was worse than that of this young master.
"It's a pity that it's too heavy, and our horse breeds are not good. Such heavy cavalry have finally been collected." I was also very pleased. It is definitely not too easy to bully these Turkic barbarians with heavy plate armor that will only appear in almost five or six hundred years, or even a thousand years later.
"That's true. Moreover, the use of such heavy cavalry is not only limited by the terrain, but also affected by distance. Otherwise, there will be no more rivals in the world." Wei Yunqi nodded with a look of regret.
"Everything has its pros and cons, which is normal." I continued to appreciate the battle. The answer was already very obvious. When there was no way to break the defense, the only thing the Turks could do was either to play their own lives to finish their lives, or to compete with heavy cavalry who would run faster and escape further.
Sure enough, after nearly twenty elite Turkic cavalry fell down in the second collision, the remaining cavalry knew that they would only die if they were entangled. Sure enough, they began to develop the nature of the Turkic people. Well, it was called bullying the weak and fearing the strong, so they began to retreat to the parish, and while retreating, they were on guard.
Looking at the Turkic cavalry who had just jumped out and tried to fight the heavy cavalry one after another, but ended up throwing the bodies all over the ground and fleeing back in a panic, the sound of victory and cheers fluctuated one after another.
The young master quickly sent another cavalry to rush over, of course not to protect the heavy cavalry, but to plunder the war horses scattered on the battlefield. Well, a good war horse is now worthless, but only thirty-one has been captured. Well, it is equivalent to tens of thousands of ounces of money. Moreover, these strong horses are actually the best Dayuan horses. Damn, they are worthy of being nomadic peoples, and even more worthy of being the lord of the Eastern Turks. The guards they have made were actually Dayuan horses.
But thinking about it, in the next nearly ten years, the Eastern Turks will be unprecedentedly powerful, and even give them the confidence to come and cause trouble for the Tang Dynasty. Although it was a big deal in the end, they cannot deny their strength.
But what's the use of being strong? I didn't come here to give me a good horse and make me famous. It seems that my father's good relationship with the Turks has created such a fate with me.
