"To be honest, that unit was used to perform special tasks. Except for one appearance in Zhuoshui Town, it has never appeared in front of outsiders. Can you understand my approach?" Ding Kui saw that he couldn't hide it, so he simply
admit.
"Special mission? Well, you are not a member of the military now, and you don't have as many scruples about doing things as I do. There should indeed be such a force." Zhang Jie is not a pedantic person, and understands that extraordinary means should be used in extraordinary situations.
"Excluding high-end combat capabilities, my special operations battalion is no worse than the First Battalion back then." Ding Kui pointed at the First Battalion passing by the command podium.
"You can gather your best troops to form a suitable army, but I have to consider many factors when arranging my subordinates. We cannot compare like this.
You don't let the most elite troops participate in actual combat exercises, and you have to bet on me to win or lose. It seems that you have something hidden behind your back?"
On the way from the ferry, Ding Kui and Zhang Jie made a bet. There would be three actual battles, one with the cavalry brigade and two with the infantry brigade. The bet was nothing more than some money but it was harmless.
"You have seen all the teams participating in the exercise. I have put all my strength in front of you, how can I hide it? What I rely on is hard power." Ding Kui raised a fist and said, "I don't bother to do it."
Conspiracy.”
After all the troops had left, Zhang Jie said: "Let's go, let's compare our physical strength."
"What? Mr. Zhang, you can just watch here." Ding Kui pretended to be surprised.
"Am I watching you abuse Feng Liang? Stop pretending! The Lord of the City will be punished personally, so how can I not accompany you?" Zhang Jie took Ding Kui's hand and walked off the platform.
"Let's eat something on the stage first."
"Go to the army and eat with your brothers. Haven't I taught you before?" Zhang Jie didn't appreciate it.
Both the Red Army and the Yellow Army returned to the assembly point, and a large number of city defense troops poured out of the west gate, as well as ox-horses pulling carts filled with puppet-like things.
It is now noon, and the exercise troops and spectators have begun to have lunch. Outside the west gate, only the city defense troops coming out from behind are busy. It turns out that they have set up dummies and obstacles in the open space, and inserted a pole with the word "win" in the center.
flag.
The city defense army is preparing for the first actual combat exercise, cavalry confrontation!
Knights have the highest attack power and enemy-killing efficiency. A direct confrontation will cause great damage even without using real weapons. Therefore, today's cavalry confrontation is not a head-on confrontation.
Two obstacle areas were set up in the open space. The cavalry brigades of both sides must clear the obstacle areas as quickly as possible and be the first to capture the victory flag in the center in order to win the first competition.
The first competition is the cavalry charge ability. The faster the speed and the more organized the team, the shorter the time it takes to clear obstacles. If the two sides are close in time, they will be more powerful than the elite cavalry. Each party can only send one small team to go.
In Capture the Flag, you can capture the stolen flag before the opponent returns to your formation.
Both the Red Army and the Yellow Army dispatched their strongest lineups. The Red Army, led by Ding Kui, searched the entire city to gather 800 knights. They did not seek quantity but quality. They did not gather 200 non-knight cavalry; the Yellow Army
Zhang Jie led the team. The team captains who came today replaced the new recruits from the first team, and even the staff officer Liang Chong also joined the team.
It was obvious that both sides attached great importance to the first match and tried their best to win.
"Hahaha, their division commanders are all here. Yoyoyo, isn't that a good staff officer?" Guo Qing, the mayor of Kumu Town, is also in the Red Army's cavalry team.
Ding Cai said to Mayor Guo with a playful smile: "Aren't you here to bully others?" Naturally, he is a candidate for cavalry, and at least he has a fighting spirit close to that of a fearless knight.
"Go, go, go, why are you talking? This is called giving guidance to the younger generations. When I was a cavalryman, most of them were not born yet." Guo Qing loved to show off his seniority in front of Ding Cai.
"Cheer up, especially you old guys, take care of the little kid from the Knights Guild, and be more helpful in a while. If you are a mayor or a director, if you lose the competition, do you still need to see people when you go back?
?" Zhong Wei was patrolling the formation outside.
He took several old guards and Ding Kui to form a capture-the-flag team.
Shao Dianfei shut his mouth tightly and looked excitedly at the veterans in the team. Those were all idol figures when he was young.
"Relax." Ding Kui patted Shao Dianfei on the shoulder, "You have to learn how they control the horse speed, and how they help the people next to them control the horse speed. This is an ability that an excellent cavalry commander must possess."
"Yes, sir!" Shao Dianfei replied loudly.
"Haha, relax. If you can exert 60% of your strength during normal training, you will be qualified." Ding Kui thought about how he was a fool a few years ago.
Woo! Woo! Woo!
The trombone sounds three times, and both parties enter the starting point.
Ding Kui, like everyone else, was fully armored. He had a wooden spear and a wooden sword. The spear tip and sword tip were wrapped in coarse cloth stained with white ash. He personally led a small team to line up on the arrow of the cavalry formation.
Boom! The magic flare shot into the sky.
"Charge!" Ding Kui's command was concise and powerful. He sat down and leapt into the sky with his leopard body and his thunder horse.
"Wow, the Lord of the City is so fast!" "It is indeed the second most famous horse. I'm feasting my eyes on it today." "It's so handsome. I want to marry the Lord of the City!" "Keep your voice down, Her Royal Highness is on the high platform."…
…
"Well? Why didn't the Prince Consort lead the cavalry? How far forward could one person do?" Wu Jin, the Lord of Port City, did not blindly worship like ordinary people.
"He just likes to be in the limelight and make Lord Wu laugh." Shao Dianluan replied calmly.
"No, this is not the style of a flying general." Mingjie asked Fei Ze this time.
"Oh, Master Ding's approach is not understandable by ordinary people. Unfortunately, I happen to be an ordinary person." Fei Ze shrugged.
Not many people in the entire territory know that Ding Kui has been promoted to the Dominion Knight, and they will not tell them.
Phew! A three-meter-wide gun beam flew out.
Phew! A three-meter-wide sword light followed immediately.
"Is this the strength of the peak fearless knight?" Lu Ji was stunned when he saw Ding Kui's performance on the second floor of the high platform.
Zhang Jie on the other side also shot out spear rays and sword rays one after another. The sizes were the same, but there was a gap in the interval. He was separated by at least ten breaths.
"Wow!" the viewing area erupted in exclamation.
It turned out that it was Zhang Jie who triggered the entire cavalry formation to shoot out a spear beam more than ten meters long, sweeping towards the obstacle area with devastating force.
"Hey!" Ding Kui hit his left knee and galloped to the right with his leopard body and thunder horse.
Behind him, Zhong Weixin understood and turned to the right with eight old guards.
"Wow!" exclaimed again.
Shao Dianfei also triggered the cavalry formation to fire out a nearly ten-meter-long spear beam. Although the length was shorter, the destructive power was equally sharp, sweeping away the dummies and obstacles about a hundred meters long.
But it wasn't over yet. Ding Kui had already rushed into the obstacle area with his super high horse speed. His gun and sword were flying, and all the dummies and obstacles in front of him flew backwards. The speed of clearing obstacles was not much worse than the gun light.
Since Zhong Wei and others did not have to maintain coordination speed, they rushed into the obstacle area faster than Huang Jun's cavalry and began to clear the obstacles all by themselves.
The cavalry of the two armies each has its own strengths, but the speed and efficiency of clearing obstacles are almost the same. You must know that the Red Army has 200 fewer men, which is equivalent to a 25% reduction in combat strength, which is equivalent to four men against five of the other side.
Zhang Jie used a charging skill and found that he was about to break through the obstacle area, so he hung up his wooden sword, took out a whistle, put it into his mouth, and blew it hard; at the same time, Ding Kui raised his wooden sword upward and shot it into the air.
A sword light.
The two teams of cavalry split from a neat cone-shaped array, scattering in all directions like exploding fireworks; from a collective charge to an individual pursuit, those with high strength can fully display their personal abilities.
Ding Kui relied on his horse to clear an obstacle area, and started to turn around to help Zhong Wei and others clear the obstacles. Each cavalry team divided their respective areas of responsibility. The team that finished first had to help the unfinished ones, because all the dummies and obstacles
Only when you are leveled can you go to the middle to capture the flag.
Beep beep, beep beep beep, beep beep beep, Zhang Jie's whistle is getting faster and faster. It is currently the dominant stage for Huang Army.
Individual pursuit depends on the number of people. No matter how strong the individual is, he can only chase two people at most. The difference in personal strength between the two sides is not so big that there is a gap of 200 people.
Ding Kui's spear on the other end danced like a fan blade, and his arms were like motors. One person could take care of the area of two people. In his plan, most of the responsibility for narrowing the gap in numbers between the two sides fell on him. He could surpass the ordinary.
If you perform well, you are basically guaranteed to win.
However, in fact, he miscalculated the abilities of the young knights, and he did not expect that all the senior knights of the 201st Division would be transferred to the First Battalion. The Yellow Army's cavalry could clear obstacles faster than he expected.
"Quick! Follow me!" Zhang Jie was delighted to see that his side had cleared the obstacle area first, and immediately called on the five captains and the four strongest knights to form a small riding formation with him.
The Yellow Army cavalry squad rushed to the "victory" flag first!
Ding Kui immediately stood at the edge of the obstacle area in advance, looking anxiously at the last obstacle area that had not been cleared, "Zhong Wei, you go over and clear the obstacle!"
Zhong Wei did not hesitate and immediately took Guo Qing, Ding Cai and others to clear the obstacle.
When the last dummy was shot away, Ding Kui did not wait for the cavalry squad to arrive and rushed towards the "victory" flag single-handedly.
"Aha! Ding Kui is crazy! One person wants to challenge our team alone?" Chen Chishi and Han Kai lined up behind Zhang Jie.
"Don't underestimate him! Aren't there many impossible things that have happened to him? Follow the master's lead." Han Kai did not underestimate Ding Kui.
"Okay, do you want to use your horse to snatch me away? Do you agree?" Zhang Jie turned around and asked.
"No!" Huang Jun's cavalry squad had high morale.
"Let him retreat when faced with difficulties." Zhang Jie raised the tip of his spear, and the subordinates behind him drew their spears forward together.
Before rushing to the "victory" flag, Zhang Jie lowered the tip of his spear and fired a ray of light at Ding Kui.
If Ding Kui wanted to rush forward in a straight line, he would hit the spear light. Unless he could easily resolve the spear light emitted by the combined efforts of ten people, his speed would definitely drop significantly.
"Hey, goodbye, Prince Consort Ding!" Zhang Jie stretched out his hand to pull out the "victory" flag.
