Therefore, when Upal once again received news from his scouts that the Ninth Spanish Legion was loitering behind his home, he looked much uglier.
Obviously, in Jupal's view, it should be clear evidence that the Ninth Spanish Legion is eyeing his support army, and the other party may even want to swallow him up. This is a trouble.
The biggest advantage of the cavalry on the plains is here. They can start a war at will and withdraw from the war at will. Even if they do nothing, as long as they hang behind the enemy infantry, it is enough to put great pressure on the infantry.
.
Even if the immortal guards of the Esfandel family are worthy of their reputation as elites, the great advantage of the cavalry on the plains also makes Upal have to think about how much trouble such an elite cavalry hanging behind them will cause.
.
[We have to find a way. Well, I remember there is a place in front that is suitable for an ambush, but the opponent may not go there. The advantage of the cavalry lies in this aspect. They can enter the battlefield at any time and withdraw from the battlefield at any time, choosing what they want.
The battlefield...] Yupal thought with a solemn expression.
However, after thinking for a long time, Upal decided to strike first and tried to use the Rangers to lure the Roman Ninth Spanish Legion to the battlefield he had arranged.
"Ha, met that heavy infantry again?" Li Jue, who was looking for a new training point, frowned when he heard the Qiang Cavalry's report.
"Does the other party have any thoughts about us?" Fan Chou touched his prickly beard with a cold look in his eyes.
"I have never seen infantry on the Great Plains who want to fight with our cavalry." Guo Bang moved his joints wildly, and he seemed to want to strike first.
"It's probably an accident. Forget it, just let the scouts keep an eye on it. It's really hard to fight the regular army. Let's practice again." Li Jue touched his chin and said. He didn't think the commander of the Roman regular army was mentally retarded and dared to
Raise them on the plains.
What's more, after the first encounter, the other party quickly led his troops away from them. From this aspect, the other party definitely didn't want to conflict with him, so Li Jue tended to be surprised. Of course, the main reason was that Li Jue didn't want to fight either.
, even the regular Roman army was difficult to deal with.
"If you say so..." Guo Si hesitated. Among the three of them, only Li Jue was qualified to be called wise. Therefore, when discussing survival, Li Jue had the decision-making power.
"Well, since you think so, Lao Li, I won't say anything." Fan Chou threw a piece of meat pie to Li Jue, "But if we meet again next time, I really can't help it."
"Even if it's an accident, if we encounter it three times, we should be hacked to death." Li Jue said angrily, "What kind of accident can make both parties encounter each other three times? We can only ask for something else!"
However, Fan Chou was a crow's mouth. Not even seven days later, their group was attacked by what they thought were Roman horse archers. Li Jue's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he took them as a decisive battle unit.
In terms of pursuit, I once again suffered from the short legs of the cavalry.
Although the quality of the cavalry was now high enough and they had been accustomed to dealing with night attacks for many years, the patrols were well arranged and the camp was not invaded by the so-called Roman horse archers.
Even before the rain of arrows hit the camp randomly arranged by the cavalry, the veterans and Qiang cavalry who patrolled at night and the secret sentries had already used special methods to stimulate the Xiliang cavalry's common attack and counterattack defense system in response to night sneak attacks.
How do you describe this system? That is, before the opponent comes in and causes chaos, the elite cavalry on the periphery directly pick up their guns and mount their horses to kill first and forcefully counterattack to disrupt the opponent's offensive.
Anyway, Li Ru had repeatedly warned the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry back then that when the opponent attacked at night, it would not be a surprise attack with an entire army. Generally, as long as you mount your horse and go out with your weapon, the opponent will definitely be more confused than you, so you can just attack them when the time comes.
Although Li Ru fooled the Xiliang Cavalry into saying that the opponent is definitely more confused than you, I have to admit that this set of tactics is particularly effective for the Xiliang Cavalry.
After all, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is very high. It is not impossible to rush out and disrupt the opponent's formation. On the contrary, as long as the elite peripheral troops attack and the cavalry behind them follow up, the Xiliang cavalry's combat effectiveness will basically lead to a successful counterattack.
Of course, if even elites such as the Iron Cavalry, who are well-trained and have explosive combat capabilities, cannot counterattack successfully, then it can only be said that the opponent is the top elite. It is estimated that the final result will be that the brains of both sides will be beaten into pieces.
Naturally, the elite veterans on the periphery reflexively carried out this order once again the moment they were attacked at night. The moment they woke up, they immediately touched the spear beside the bed, then pierced the tent with the shot, got on their horses, and headed directly towards
Rushed out.
A grass-roots camp does not need a camp wall. The camp set up by the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is almost full of flaws in the eyes of a normal army. However, when they rush out, there are also roads, so the arrows of the archers from the opposite side have not yet entered.
, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry has already killed them.
Therefore, in terms of the result, the Xiliang cavalry actually did not suffer any losses. However, they were attacked by opponents in the early morning. Li Jue was so angry that he ignored the materials in the camp and chased the horse archers directly.
.
Today we will hack to death these bastards who disturb people's dreams, all of them!
"Is there something wrong with this situation?" Li Jue and others chased the archers in front of them in the dark. After chasing for a while, Fan Chou suddenly asked a question.
"What's wrong?" Li Jue asked with a dark face and anger.
"We should be the slowest cavalry." Fan Chou said as he looked at the horse archers in front who kept turning around to shoot arrows, but did not keep any distance from them.
"..." Guo Si and Li Jue were speechless when they heard this. There is no doubt that the Xiliang cavalry is the slowest cavalry, so slow that it is only slightly faster than the infantry. So in theory, the cavalry generally has less time to chase the enemy.
It's a failure. Even if they reach the top elite level, they can't run much faster than the most ordinary cavalry.
Speaking of which, the Divine Iron Cavalry is also a sublimation of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Relatively speaking, it has a little bit of speed boost. If necessary, it can even create a terrifyingly high speed by burning military souls. However, Li
The group of cavalry under Jue's command all have short legs.
"Adou, you and Lao Fan will lead two thousand men each to find that group of heavy infantry. If you find them, hack them to death on the spot. If you can't find them, just keep some distance to the side to cover them." Li Jue instantly understood Fan Chou's intention.
I mean, the light cavalry, which even their iron cavalry can catch up with, is not luring the enemy.
"Okay!" Fan Chou and Guo Si heard this and immediately launched their respective legion talents, dragging two thousand troops and extending directly from the two wings. After that, Li Jue held his gun high and unleashed his legion talents. "Qiang Cavalry
assault!"
The Xiliang cavalry are still such bastards. After adding a group of Qiang cavalry, the guys like Li Jue and Guo Bang once again resumed the fighting mode of tigers leading a pack of wolves. With Li Jue's roar, the Xiliang cavalry
A blood-red radiance extended out, and the low-key Qiang Qi beside him was like a balloon that was suddenly injected with air, rapidly inflating.
The aura on his body was rising steadily, and even the Qiang King guards from Ma Chao had almost reached the level of top elites. They broke away from the battle formation of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and then turned into arrows from the string and turned back towards the front.
The shooting archers chased him up.
The iron cavalry runs slowly. Yes, it does have short legs, and it is a very famous short leg. However, the iron cavalry has auxiliary soldiers that other legions do not have. The Qiang cavalry is a shock cavalry, although its legs are not as long as the white horse Yi Cong.
It's an exaggeration, but with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry's nearly 50% blessing, I'm afraid it's probably only a little slower than the top rangers of Anxi.
Naturally, the Qiang cavalry who were thrown out like this stabbed out their fangs before the Anxi horse archers in front could react.
Surround it before you circle it.
"Kill these bastards to death!" Li Jue saw that the Qiang cavalry had successfully surrounded the archers in front, and immediately roared forward. All the iron knights also roared and charged.
Yupal, who was lying in the tunnel for cover, was shocked when he saw this scene. His rangers observed for five days and determined that the opponent did not have high mobility, so they made such a plan. Unexpectedly, the opponent
The reserve army actually possesses super high attack capabilities.
[Damn, how is it possible? How can Rome have similar mobility to the rangers of the GPU Patlan family? How is this possible!] Yupal saw that the opponent was less than a hundred steps away from where he ambush, but the Qiang cavalry had already completed the attack.
He made a diagonal U-turn and was about to outflank successfully. He was suddenly shocked!
But at this time, Yupal has no extra choice. He really has to wait for the Roman army to kill the rangers he released. With the distance they are currently ambush, they may be able to get through with the darkness before dawn, but after the sky is over,
As soon as the light comes on, you want to hide it from the opponent's eyes at a distance of more than a hundred steps. What's the difference between that and dreaming?
"Archers fire arrows! Guards formed a formation to respond!" Yupal immediately no longer hesitated and directly ordered a group of archers hidden in a shallow tunnel covered with shrubs to stand up and scatter. At this time, he did not make a decision.
, I’m afraid the military morale will be shaken.
For a time, the bushes that were originally in front of the Qiang cavalry were overturned. A large number of Parthian elite archers started shooting crazily. As another development route for archers, the Parthian archers, who are famous for their speed, were overturning the bushes and lifting up the bushes.
The bow fired tens of thousands of arrows in an instant.
That kind of terrifying efficiency instantly reminded Li Jue of the ten waves of arrow rain when he first met Ganassis. And unlike the last time, the power of the opponent's arrow rain this time was obviously much greater!
