It’s no wonder that the always calm Jia Xu said this. A cavalry without stirrups, saddles, and horseshoes is nothing. Of course, the world doesn’t need horseshoes, but the importance of saddles and stirrups has not diminished.
Without these two things, those who can swing long weapons around during cavalry charges are basically peerless warriors. It can be said that even with the elite Xiliang cavalry, those who can charge with long weapons without saddles and stirrups are probably
We can only gather 8,000 people, any more would be delusional.
Don't underestimate the word "swinging back and forth". When Xiliang's horse charges, the speed is calculated as if no internal energy is added, which is 50 kilometers per hour. The two sides are holding long weapons to counter each other. Basically, a slight swing is enough to defeat the opponent.
The cavalryman's ribs cracked, kinetic energy is always so terrifying.
Of course, if you are talking about holding a wooden pole and a long weapon, breaking it when you rush forward, and then slashing people with a saber, it is better not to make trouble. The elite assault cavalry cannot afford to lose this person, and they will break your army into a sieve without holding a long weapon.
, then they are called elite Rangers, are they worthy of the name Rangers?
Although the assault cavalry only requires you to hold the spear tightly, not to be superstitious about your own strength, not to waver, and just rush over, but just holding the spear tightly is enough to brush down half of the people. As for the one behind you who is not superstitious about your own strength and strength.
Don't waver, there will always be things you can't control.
"Let's see what Wenru's cavalry tactics are?" Chen Xi said with a smile. Although he had already guessed that it might be a charge with long weapons, but think about the Xiliang cavalry who can charge with long weapons without stirrups. It's really a monster.
ah!
"But be careful not to be noticed by Yuan Shaojun. If this thing falls into Yuan Shaojun's hands, we will have to defend the city." Jia Xu looked at Chen Xi and warned.
"Don't worry, this thing will not fall into Yuan Shao's hands. Since I dare to take it out, I am confident. I have also warned these personal guards." Chen Xi said with a smile, "As for those craftsmen, they are all from the Chen family.
Servant, it is absolutely impossible to leave without the handwriting of the head of the Chen family."
"Strictly guard it, at least it must not be exposed until we occupy the horse-producing area." Jia Xu nodded and said.
"Don't worry, this is for you." Chen Xi took out a strange-looking crossbow from his horse pocket and handed it to Jia Xu.
"Hand crossbow?" Jia Xu weighed it in his hand and said, "I can't use this thing. My swordsmanship is not bad. Although my inner energy has been suppressed by my mental strength, I still have a certain amount of inner energy.
"
"Ten consecutive shots, and after Zilong's powerful warming with secret techniques, the range is also guaranteed. One shot at close range is enough to seriously injure Qi Chenggang." Chen Xi turned his head and smiled at Jia Xuyin, this thing
It's the continuous crossbow, but obviously it doesn't have the technology for mass production, so it can only be equipped for a few specific people.
"Bring it here." Jia Xu stretched out his hand and put the repeating crossbow into his horse pocket, "It's a good thing. I might as well kill a few Jizhou soldiers and earn some merit."
"In that case, don't waste it. This thing is for your self-defense." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.
On the other hand, Yuan Shao also led an army from Jizhou, but he did not dare to marshal his troops in Yanzhou. After all, that was not wise, it would be death.
After reorganizing his troops in Yecheng, Yuan Shao led the army vigorously with Ju Yi as the central guard, Xian Deng as the core of the central guard, Yan Liang as the vanguard general, Guo Tu as the front army counselor, Wen Chou as the cavalry commander, and Han Meng led
The surrendered Hu Qi.
The left wing guard was led by Zhang Jiao, the right wing guard was by the three Lu brothers and Jiang Qi, Jiang Yiqu was in charge of the grain and grass logistics, Yuan Shao was in charge of the middle camp, with Shen Pei as the chief planner, Ju Sue, Xin Ping, and Dong Zhao as assistants.
He raised an army of 250,000, including more than 40,000 elite cavalry from the headquarters and more than 20,000 Karasuma cavalry.
It can be said that this time Yuan Shao spent all his capital. Although the 250,000-strong army was not revealed, the consumption of Yuan Shao's money and food after the army was mobilized was not a small amount.
250,000 soldiers will eat their horses, war materials will be lost, and one billion yuan worth of grain and refined war materials will be wiped out in more than three to four months, so war is very expensive.
Of course, a wealthy family like the Zhen family can support an army of 250,000 people like Yuan Shao for two years, which shows how rich they are. This is also the reason why Yuan Shao recently hopes to obtain the legitimate daughter of the Zhen family for his son.
Yuan Shao stood on the high cliff and watched the endless army passing by below. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart. He thought that Dong Zhuo, whom he envied at the time, did not have so many good ministers and generals, nor so many brave soldiers.
"It's a pity that Kong Zhang went to Liu Bei, otherwise I would have asked him to write an article to let all the princes in the world understand my Yuan Shao's military strength!" Yuan Shao, who was wearing a suit of golden armor, a BMW on his hip, and a sword hanging on his waist, laughed.
road.
"Why do we need to tell others that my lord is leading his army south, which will definitely shake the world, and will naturally make the princes in awe." Shen Pei said calmly as he looked at the soldiers below astride his horse. Yuan Shao's army gathered and even Shen Pei felt it.
Shocking.
"I don't know about others, at least not Liu Bei. Even if he is decadent and has declined a bit, he will definitely have the courage to fight with the lord as a self-made man." Jushou said unceremoniously, completely ignoring the current situation.
, which made Shen Pei somewhat unable to step down.
"Okay, our army went south just for Liu Xuande. If he doesn't even have the courage to fight me, why bother coming?" Yuan Shao glanced at Ju Shou unhappily, but did not reprimand him. Yuan Shao is not stupid now, of course for
Even if the scenery like Jushuo and Tianfeng is so bad, you will not be able to appreciate it.
"Gong Ren, you haven't spoken a word during this journey, don't you have any thoughts?" Yuan Shao recognized Dong Zhao's abilities very much. In his judgment, Dong Zhao was on the same level as monsters like Xun Chen.
However, Dong Zhao's behavior always has some evil intentions in it.
However, Yuan Shao believed that he could convince Dong Zhao. After all, based on his understanding of Dong Zhao, he was a typical example of someone who follows the strong.
"Zhao is just thinking about one thing. What if everything we have learned before is an illusion?" Dong Zhao frowned and asked.
As soon as Dong Zhao said this, everyone present looked at Dong Zhao with something wrong. However, as an intelligence collector, Jushou was the first to stand up and support Dong Zhao. Even if what they learned was all false,
It was definitely a major blow to Jushou.
It is obvious that a person like Jushu is a typical person who treats the situation rather than the person. Even if this matter is harmful to himself, as long as it is beneficial to Yuan Shao's entire power, Jushu will definitely carry it out without hesitation.
