Hearing Tang Yin's inquiry, Shi Lexuan's face showed a look of disdain. He said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Others are afraid of the mere Mo cavalry, but our Ninth Army is not afraid. We will defeat the enemy this time with ease!"
Yo! This is quite a big statement! In the first battle of Feng Mo, our side suffered a lot from the Mo cavalry. It is surprising that the Ninth Army is so confident.
Tang Yin raised the corner of his mouth slightly and reminded slowly: "General Shi, do you understand that there is no such thing as joking in the army?"
"General, I understand that what I say is no child's play! If our ninth army cannot defeat the Mo cavalry, general and all the soldiers in the army will raise their heads to see the king!" Shi Lexuan said decisively.
"Is this the military order you issued?" Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and asked softly with a smile.
"Yes! King!"
"Okay! Send me the king's order, and the entire Ninth Army will attack. You must capture the Mo cavalry for me!"
"General, I obey!" Shi Lexuan bowed his hand again on the horse, then turned the horse's head and returned to the formation.
He quickly returned to Qi Heng and saw that the latter was looking at him with questioning eyes. He chuckled and said, "The king has ordered my ninth army to go into battle!"
"You should have told me earlier!" Qi Heng took a deep breath, cheered up, and while taking off his nine-turn soul-breaking knife from the victory hook, he muttered dissatisfiedly: "After delaying for so long, Mo Jun thought we were afraid
Got them!"
Shi Lexuan leaned closer to Qi Heng and whispered: "I think the king is afraid of letting the Mo cavalry fight. If the general had not issued a military order to the king, and the Mo cavalry would not defeat the king before he raised his head to see the king, I guess,
Even now, the king may not be willing to give the order to go to war!"
"Oh?" Qi Heng also grinned after hearing this.
"General, the reputation of the Mo cavalry is too great. I think not only the king is afraid of it, but also all the soldiers in the army are afraid of it! This is a great opportunity for the general to perform meritorious service. As long as the Mo cavalry is defeated,
From now on, my brothers from the Ninth Army will be able to stand out from others wherever they go." As he spoke, Shi Lexuan couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
Qi Heng's eyes lit up, and he secretly said that it made sense! The Feng Army had defeated the Mo Army countless times, and the only one that had not been defeated was the Mo Cavalry. If he had done this today, in the future, no matter who he was, he and the Ninth Army would be in trouble.
You have to look at it differently.
Thinking of this, he shook the Nine-turn Soul-Severing Knife in his palm, raised his head and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Pass my military order, brothers in the army, follow me to fight!"
"Yes!" Shi Lexuan agreed, and then conveyed it to Qi Heng's generals. Seeing the flags on their side waving, the drummers in the army began to beat the war drums in unison.
Boom, boom, boom! The drums beat together, and the war horses neigh. The war horses in the army are also psychic. When they hear the drums and know that they are going to the battlefield, the war horses become extremely excited.
Amidst the deafening drums, the cavalry of the Ninth Army began to advance forward in unison. At first, the horses were jogging. As the distance between them increased, the horses changed from jogging to sprinting. One hundred thousand cavalry charged at full speed.
The scene was so spectacular that it was like overwhelming mountains and seas. The shaking of the ground and the dull roar could be clearly felt even from several miles away.
Seeing the wind cavalry approaching, the dust kicked up several meters high, as if a hurricane was blowing, the Mo cavalry couldn't help but raise their hearts in their throats.
Usually, they are the ones who bring such strong shock and oppression to the enemy, but now the situation is reversed.
The generals in the Mo cavalry shouted loudly, commanding their subordinates to attack. Not long after, drums were beating in the Mo army camp, horses neighed continuously, and a cavalry formation of more than 100,000 people charged forward.
.
At that time, Mo's cavalry tactics were the most mature among all countries and had the most changes. Seeing the menacing wind cavalry on the opposite side, Mo's cavalry quickly split into three cavalry teams during the battle.
The horse team in the middle did not change its direction and continued to engage in a head-on confrontation with the Wind Cavalry, while the other two cavalry teams dispersed to both sides in unison, preparing to circle to both sides of the Ninth Army and launch an attack from the flanks.
Qi Heng was able to keep his composure, remain unchanged in response to all changes, and move forward while maintaining the same status quo. Most of his cavalry tactics were learned from Xiaona, and they were the same Bessa cavalry tactics.
Heavy cavalry is different from light cavalry in that it does not have high mobility. When fighting light cavalry, it focuses on breaking through the center. As for the attacks on both sides, it focuses on defense. If heavy cavalry is like light cavalry,
If the troops are divided into multiple groups to fight separately, it is equivalent to being led by the light cavalry, and in the end they will lose due to their own low mobility.
Qi Heng knew very well what his own strengths and weaknesses were, so when he saw the Mo Cavalry on the opposite side adopting a troop-splitting tactic, he was not moved at all.
Soon, the distance between the cavalry of the two armies was less than a hundred steps, and they were within the shooting range of the Mo cavalry. The Mo cavalry took the lead in attacking. The archers in the camp twisted their bows and set arrows, aiming at the Feng army on the opposite side, and all fired.
The arrow shot out.
The power of the cavalry arrow formation is also very terrifying. The force of the arrow is combined with the inertia of the horse's sprint. When an arrow is shot, it is often extremely powerful.
If they had encountered ordinary infantry or cavalry, the opponent might have suffered a big loss, but this time they had encountered heavy cavalry, which were 'monsters' made of steel. The Mo cavalry's arrow array had lost its previous strength.
power.
Countless arrows fell into the formation of the wind cavalry, and there was a tinkling sound in the ears, but looking around, there was not even a head hit by the arrow. Such a weird scene made the Mo cavalry on the opposite side look pale.
Big changes.
The generals in the army suppressed the panic and fear in their hearts and shouted: "Fire arrows! Keep firing arrows! Don't stop."
Under General Mo's repeated urging, the horse archers used all their strength when pulling the strings. The dense array of arrows kept flying into the air from the heads of Cavalry Mo like a violent storm.
Then it smashed into the Wind Cavalry camp from the air.
However, the effect of the subsequent arrow array was similar to that of the first arrow array. It could not break through the thick armor of the heavy cavalry at all. Amidst bursts of crisp sounds, it hit the heavy cavalry, and the arrows on the horse bounced to the ground.
.
The Mo cavalry's arrow formation had only been deployed for four rounds, and the soldiers on both sides were already in contact. The cavalry on both sides collided head-on. Some soldiers could still pass by each other, but some soldiers hit each other firmly.
At this time, the strength of Pabuma came into play. When two horses on both sides collided, the Mo cavalry often rolled to the ground with both men and horses, falling into a ball. On the other hand, the wind cavalry on the other side, the war horse was only knocked back a few steps.
That's it, I kicked my hooves and shook my head, and then I could continue to charge forward.
The Mo cavalry has never encountered such a terrifying opponent as the heavy cavalry. Arrows cannot hurt the opponent, and collision cannot knock the opponent down. Even if the opponent is stabbed with a spear or spear, it cannot hurt the opponent at all. This is simply not possible.
He is a monster made of steel and iron!
They had nothing to do with the Wind Cavalry, and they couldn't think of a way to break it, but the Wind Cavalry didn't show mercy to them.
The heavily armored knights raised their long steel spears and mercilessly pierced the armor and bodies of the Mo Cavalry. On the chaotic battlefield, the Mo Cavalry screamed endlessly, and the Mo Bing who turned over and fell from his horse was like a dumpling.
.
On the battlefield, there were corpses of Mo Cavalry everywhere, and their blood had dyed the ground red.
Just when the Mo cavalry fell into a passive position and the situation was about to collapse, the other two cavalry forces arrived and launched a fierce attack from the two wings of the Ninth Army.
The Ninth Army responded very quickly. The soldiers on both wings turned their horses and formed defensive positions to resist the attacking Mo cavalry.
The battle between the two sides on the two wings was similar to the confrontation between the former army. The Mo cavalry still had no way to use the heavy armor of the wind cavalry. They could not hurt the other side, but the other side could easily hurt themselves. How could they continue to fight such a battle?
?
Actual combat is the best test of the mutual compatibility of arms. Although light cavalry and heavy cavalry are both cavalry, their combat capabilities are very different. To say that the only one that can truly restrain light cavalry is heavy cavalry. As for heavy cavalry, they are both cavalry.
To restrain heavy cavalry, infantry must be relied on. Of course, the premise is that the infantry must adopt correct tactics. When Tang Yin was the head of Pingyuan County, he used infantry to defeat Besa's heavy cavalry, thus changing the situation.
The passive situation on the border of Feng Country.
Tang Yin knew China's thousands of years of history, and even by listening to storytelling, he could tell that cutting off a horse's legs was a way to restrain heavy cavalry (cutting off a horse's legs to restrain heavy cavalry was not a random fabrication in storytelling, it actually happened in history,
It happened in the Song Dynasty, and the Song army defeated the heavy cavalry of the Jin Kingdom in this way), so when Tang Yin encountered the heavy cavalry, he patted his head and thought of a way, but Mo Jun had never been exposed to it before.
It is simply impossible for them to over-heavily equip the cavalry and have them think of countermeasures on the battlefield like Tang Yin did.
The Mo cavalry, known for its speed and bravery that can sweep through all the armies in the world, met its real nemesis this time. The Chinese army could not withstand the sudden advance of the wind cavalry and was defeated one after another, while the Mo cavalry attacking on both sides could not tear apart the wind cavalry.
The peripheral defense line did not pose a substantial threat. In the ensuing battle, the battlefield became completely one-sided. A large number of Mo troops died tragically under the iron hoof of the Ninth Army. More than 100,000 Mo cavalry were killed in the battle.
In less than an hour of fighting, more than half of them were lost.
At this point in the battle, not only the Mo cavalry were in a state of panic, but the soldiers were beaten to the point of confusion. The commanders of the three Mo army who were watching the battle behind were also panicked. They even couldn't figure out what kind of troops Feng Guo used.
If they are cavalry, how can they be so powerful? Even the men and horses are wearing such heavy armor. How can the war horses run? If they are not cavalry, then what are they? They are clearly riding horses.
!
He Cong, the coach of Tian Yang Army, was the first to shake his head and murmured in a trembling voice: "We can't fight! This battle can't go on any longer. If we continue, our cavalry will be completely wiped out!"
