Amidst the wanton laughter of Hu Biao and the others, they drove the war horses under their crotches to a slow trot.
It's a joke, but many people are actually quite aware and mentally prepared that they may die soon in the ensuing cavalry charge.
My inventory time in this mission has also entered the countdown.
After trotting for a certain distance, they began to beat the horses, gradually increasing their speed.
Of course, the Huns on the opposite side also performed the same operation. In the end, when both sides were about one mile away from their opponents, both horses entered the highest charging state.
The difference is that the Huns' tactics are completely different.
On the Huns side, after taking action.
Not only did the cavalry on both wings attack with diagonal thrusts, but they also planned to use mounted archery tactics after getting close to the range of the bow and arrow.
Upon seeing this, the cannon fodder, a total of more than 1,600 people, immediately divided into two teams according to the order of Yang Dongli, the bald bandit leader, and greeted them separately.
The nearly 3,000 people who pressed forward were also divided into four teams.
The war horse was suddenly in pain from being hit by an arrow, and its body immediately began to shake violently.
But before they could officially charge in, they needed to kill three other Huns' cavalry teams.
You must know that during the days when Lang Qing and others were in Hongbai Mountain, they were not idle at all.
In this way, the armor of their companions would naturally be less likely to be ignored or forgotten.
This thing is made from tamarisk branches soaked in flax oil and then dried.
During this system mission, which lasted almost five months, the time he spent voluntarily and forcedly on the horse was definitely no less than a thousand hours.
At this time, the Huns who rushed over to confront them were already at a distance of two hundred meters, and were officially within the shooting range of both sides' bows and arrows.
Even a group of indigenous subordinates and war slaves have made a batch of hundreds of steel armors during this period of time. Although they cut corners a little, they are not armors.
That's right! It's the kind of red willow used in the famous Xinjiang Province delicacy "Red Willow Barbecue" in the modern dimension.
The nearly 3,000 people who pressed forward were also divided into four teams.
In this way, they finally don't have to worry about being unjustly shot to death by random arrows from their opponents due to insufficient protection.
The problem was that there were two more arrows, which hit the horse under his crotch.
Good guy! In this wave of arrow rain, he was hit by at least a dozen arrows; there were even some arrows among them, but compared to the bone wolf fang arrows, they were stronger and sharper bronze arrowheads, and made of pig iron.
arrow.
Therefore, when they heard the words "Raise the shield" in their ears, the rookie team actually didn't know who shouted this sentence.
But without exception, they were all bounced away by the armor on his body, unable to even break through the defense.
*******
The horses galloping under the crotch, the intensive sound of horse hooves became one continuous sound, like beating on the apex of people's hearts, making people's blood boil instinctively.
Therefore, there has been a huge improvement in riding skills. Although in a place like the Western Regions, it is nothing compared to the barbarians; but to describe the change as "a change from a shotgun to a cannon" is not an exaggeration at all.
While riding his war horse, he shot diagonally past his opponent, shooting the bow and arrow in his hand at his opponent, causing him to fall off his horse in the rain of arrows.
This thing is used for grilling meat, but I don’t have a deep impression of its specific effect. I’ve eaten it several times and still don’t feel it tastes better.
Even though those Huns were shooting extremely fast, and only a batch of arrows fell, just a few breaths later, another rain of arrows came, but the team leader did not panic at all.
Soon after, the cannon fodder on both wings got very close to the Huns on both wings, but they did not directly mix together, and they fought together with swords and guns.
What is gratifying is that in the face of such a disadvantage, the morale of these cannon fodders composed of many tribes is still quite good.
In the modern dimension, it would have taken at least 20 W to stay in contact with the riding club for so long.
Is it Hu Biao who rushes to the street, or is it Lao Yang, or another veteran?
The next second later, although the captain's head and face were blocked by the shield tied to his left arm.
In fact, Lang Qing has prepared a set of plate armor for all the rookies, including super-sized ones like the ones from Lian Zhan Xiang.
What's more important is that his current war horse is equipped with a pair of stirrups and four horseshoes.
The main reason is probably that when he was extremely excited, the man's voice was shouting loudly, which was a little too loud than usual.
Instead, both sides deliberately controlled the distance, and were about seventy or eighty meters away.
The only hope in my heart is that I can kill more Huns before I die.
Immediately, the team leader became convinced that he was wearing such a set of equipment and was simply the nemesis of the Huns' cavalry and archery.
The captain immediately felt the shield on his left arm and the armor on his body making a "ding-dong~" sound from the impact.
Because he knew that at the current speed of the two sides' hedging, they would be able to rush into the Huns' queue with at most one more round of arrows, and then it would be time for them to perform.
So for a while, although the rookie was a little embarrassed, he didn't have to worry about falling.
The tactics of Hu Biao and others were to directly target the thousand people with the largest number of people among them, and kill them directly like this.
But the current captain is no longer the rookie who almost cried when the tender meat on his inner thighs was rubbed to pieces when he first rode a horse.
At least in the short term, they can persist because of the huge temptation of "It's all you"; if it takes a longer time, it depends on how well Hu Biao and the others charge into the battle.
It's a pity, because there are many differences in archery, riding skills, quality of bows and armor, etc.
After measuring the size, it is roughly forged with a water-powered forging hammer, and then the craftsman uses a hammer to process it in detail.
However, as the old saying goes, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. When the Xiongnu's rain of arrows came towards them, they were the main target of charging.
Among them, the largest number can have about a thousand people, and the smallest number can have five or six hundred people.
But it didn't matter. Without any delay, he immediately raised the round shield tied to his left arm to cover his head and face.
But it didn't affect him at all. He clearly felt a dense rain of arrows on the opposite side, which was already greeting them.
Damn it! There is still a hot autumn day in the sky right now.
That is to say, there are too many, and even if there is a soft lining made of calfskin under the plate armor, it will still cause a burst of pain in the area where he hits it. Fortunately, this problem has little impact, and the pain will pass after a while.
Anyway, barbarian swords and arrows can be completely defended under normal circumstances.
The cannon fodder under Hu Biao obviously suffered more during the process of shooting at each other on horseback; the number of people who fell off the horse was also greater.
Before everyone dies in battle, kill the Hun envoy...
However, what the team didn't know was that on such a battlefield full of uncertainties.
Because the Huns envoy Kebi Ya and the captain of ten thousand men Zhaernen were all in this golden wolf army of the Huns.
However, after actual experiments, it was found that the shield used to weave it has quite good protective power.
Regarding this point, Hu Biao and the others were mentally prepared before the war started, and everyone was prepared to die in battle.
When thousands of arrows greeted them, they were so densely packed that they partially blocked the sun above their heads. How could a living person not feel it?
However, the team members were not too panicked by the attack of these arrows.
Horseshoes were just that, but the appearance of stirrups allowed him to sit more firmly on the horse. In addition to freeing his hands, he was less likely to fall off the horse.
If nothing else happens, something unexpected will happen to him as a rookie soon.
In such an accident, his hard-trained riding skills, carefully crafted armor, etc., everything seemed so weak...
pS: Corrected a BUG. When the Mongols were marching westward, their opponents in Eastern Europe wore pierced armor instead of plate armor.
In addition, I wrote it in a hurry to say New Year greetings. I guess there are a lot of typos. Please point them out, brothers, and I will revise them later.
