Eight hundred and eleven chapters real heavy cavalry
Running wildly all the way, the Royal Forest Army passed through the station of Xia Yu's army. Going forward, they saw a field of fragrant rapeseed flowers stretching as far as the eye can see. This is the army's military field. All kinds of food are grown all year round, and now it is It was spring, so there were rapeseed flowers. I carried the Longchi Sword and flew in front of me, turned around and said, "Send the order, don't trample on the farmland."
Han Yuan nodded: "Understood."
From the captain of ten thousand to the captain of thousands and then to the centurion, the orders went down one level at a time. The imperial cavalry galloped past the fields, without trampling on an inch of the fields. Han Yuan looked at me with even more eyes. This guy from a poor family must have never seen such a leader before.
After another 20 minutes, Dangyang Village marked on the map has appeared. It is about 2,000 yards away from us. It has also left the Juntuntian area. There are weeping willows everywhere and the spring breeze is blowing. Looking at the map, there are several The little red dot, I raised my eyebrows and said: "There are actually scouts in a small fishing village. Luo Xin really regards this as his stronghold."
Han Yuandao: "Luo Xin is a famous general, and life in the military camp has become his habit. Moreover, he made this underground deal with the Qiu Long Army. He must also know that danger will come at any time, so it is normal to send scouts."
I grasped the long sword and said: "Disperse, clear out these scouts, don't alert others, I don't want to have a head-on collision with Luo Xin."
"yes."
Han Yuan understands what I mean. We need to make a sneak attack and subdue Luo Xin's 1,000-man team in an instant. Otherwise, once they are prepared, the Imperial Guard Army may be greatly damaged. After all, I am not that conceited. Although the Imperial Guard Army is very Strong, but it may not be possible to win without damage under the sword of a famous general.
About 500 yards away, there was a young man sitting on a tree. He was wearing light leather armor and holding a crossbow in his hand. He didn't look like a fisherman. He must be a scout from Dangyang Village. I jumped in and Up, the war horse turned into ice and drifted away, a pair of frost wings suddenly opened behind him, activated the Thousand Frost Wings state, and suddenly rushed towards the grove close to the horizon, as fast as a meteor.
Han Yuan and Xiao Li also raised their swords and rushed out. There are seven scout points outside Dangyang Village. We cannot let them warn us, otherwise our sneak attack will be considered a failure.
On the willow tree, the young scout was taking a nap. When he noticed that I was flying over, it was already too late. He suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Oh no, damn it, why are the imperial lackeys here?"
I didn't wait for him to counterattack, and immediately a level 13 combo skill exploded on his leather armor. This guy was a level 153 titan, and the crossbow in his hand fired twice, but when my dragon After two sparks splashed out from the Yin Qingyan Armor, it didn't cause much damage to me. Instead, my Zhenyue Sword slashed me continuously. The guy couldn't hold on anymore. He fell down the willow tree with a wailing sound, and even exploded. A Lingyu Weapon Breastplate came out, picked it up and threw it into the package. Anyway, after I got the Holy Dragon Cauldron, the potion no longer takes up space in the package. There are a lot of spaces in the package.
From other directions, Han Yuan and Xiao Li also assassinated the scouts with just a few swords. Four other scouts were also killed by the cavalry fire of the Royal Forest Army cavalry. Each of them was shot into a hedgehog, and they did not have time to attack Dangyang. What kind of warning did the people in the village take, let alone report the news?
Luo Xin was indeed a general who lived a life of humiliation in this small fishing village, but he always maintained vigilance and even sent scouts to stand guard. Unfortunately, the sky did not help him. After a new rain, the ground in the military field was covered with water. Because of the soft mud, the sound of the horses' hooves was so much attenuated that the Royal Forest Army's tens of thousands of horses arrived outside the fishing village without making much noise.
…
Arriving quickly outside the fishing village, Xiao Li's eyes turned cold and he looked at the situation in the fishing village with one eye and said: "They are already prepared, be careful of traps."
I nodded, but several Royal Forest Army cavalry running in front suddenly fell down, and indeed they had laid traps around the village. Han Yuan was a decisive man, and immediately shouted in a low voice: "Push forward one by one, and be fast."
More than a dozen Royal Guardsmen rushed out and did not step into any traps until they reached the fishing village. However, the moment they entered the village, they were surrounded by arrows, and all the people and horses were shot dead.
Han Yuan gritted his teeth: "Heavy armored shield cavalry, come on."
Behind us, 100 cavalrymen and horses equipped with armors rushed over with heavy shields. I followed closely with everyone. We came in a hurry, Luo Xin must not be too fully prepared.
Sure enough, the shields of the heavy armored cavalry in front were splashed with the light of arrows, but the bows and arrows were relatively messy and did not cause much damage, and they could not penetrate the armor of the heavy cavalry. In the houses in the distance, There were even a lot of disheveled fishermen, rather than soldiers running out with long swords in their hands. Although they were prepared, our surprise attack was still very effective.
"Be careful, it's a heavy cavalry."
A soldier from Dangyang Village yelled: "On the gun and shield soldiers, we are covered by bows and arrows on both sides. The archers aim at the eyes of their heavy cavalry and shoot them blind. The heavy cavalry is like a headless fly directing a random charge."
Han Yuan responded immediately: "Hold your shield high, determine the direction and charge me."
In the distance, a group of Dangyang Village soldiers rushed over with simple shields and spears. They set up the shields on the ground and lined up spears to meet the impact of the heavy cavalry. No, they were not spears, but spears. They were covered with spears. Made of steel, the handle of the spear is made of wood, which is easy to break when encountering a cavalry charge. However, the spear is different, but the spear requires more iron, so it is not widely used.
Luo Xin actually managed to obtain so many spears made of iron in this small fishing village, which shows his skill.
Han Yuan personally led the heavy cavalry of the Royal Forest Army to rush forward. The first layer of defense of the opponent's spear and shield soldiers was instantly broken through. However, many heavy cavalry and war horses were injured. When the breakthrough reached the second layer, more heavy cavalry were injured. , Han Yuan waved his spear, and suddenly sent it flying to send a man flying. After pulling it out, he threw it out and penetrated a soldier directly. He drew his sword and rode his horse to kill him.
The cost of building heavy cavalry is really too expensive. Adding up the training costs, war horses, armor and shields, the cost of building a heavy cavalry is at least 5-8 times that of pikemen. The tactic used by Luo Xin is actually to exchange pikes. You can make a lot of money by exchanging 1 soldier for 1, or even 2 for 1, or 3 for 1.
It's a pity that this kind of exchange is only useful when facing small-scale cavalry. Once they encounter a cavalry attack of the size of a regiment like the Royal Forest Army, Luo Xin's hundreds of spearmen will be useless.
As a result, after the Royal Forest Army lost 20 heavy cavalry, they killed them all the way, and all the opponent's 500 spearmen turned into corpses.
I pointed straight into the distance and said: "Han Yuan, take 1,000 people over to control the port. Don't show the flag of the Royal Forest Army. You must capture Dangyang Village quietly."
"Yes, General."
Han Yuan led his people away, while Xiao Li and I continued to lead our people to fight in the fishing village. At the same time, I also ordered that the prisoners could be kept without having to kill them all, so the Imperial Forest Army showed mercy and did not kill them all.
Just as everyone was charging and killing wantonly in the fishing village, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the trail in the distance. I squinted my eyes and looked over, and I was surprised to find a group of cavalry slowly appearing at the corner of the woods. They were all equipped with standard equipment, and each one had a weapon in his hand. There were spears, a small buckler, bows, arrows, hand axes and other equipment hanging on the sides of the horses, and the armor on each person was very exquisite and red, not even inferior to the equipment of the Imperial Guard.
In front of the queue, a man with a long sword in one hand and a heavy shield in the other had his head covered under an iron helmet. He looked at us with only a pair of eyes and sneered: "Have the lackeys of the empire finally arrived? My little Dangyang Village I finally caught your attention."
Xiao Li shouted: "Luo Xin, since you were once an imperial soldier, why did you collude with the Horned Dragon Army? Do you know how many people you indirectly killed? Do you know that the Horned Dragon Army looted along the Wushen River in the past few years? How many villages, towns and small towns, how many innocent civilians were killed."
"I know."
Luo Xin's voice was very calm and he said: "So what, they have nothing to do with me."
"Keng."
I pulled out the Longchi Sword, took the reins of the flying sickle horse, and said, "No need to say anything more... prepare to attack and behead Luo Xin."
The imperial guards behind me all drew out their iron blades and already made a charging gesture, while Luo Xin moved the shield slightly upward and said with a smile: "Okay, let me let you young masters of the imperial guard know what It’s called the true Imperial heavy cavalry.”
There was a loud sound of horse hooves, and the real decisive battle began.
I can clearly notice that when Luo Xin commanded the heavy cavalry to attack, the shield moved forward, and the cavalry in the front row always maintained a horizontal formation, so as to form the maximum impact.
In the blink of an eye, there was contact, and the violent sound of "bang bang bang" was endless. The Zhenyue Sword in my hand also flew out, crisscrossing the opponent's 200 heavy cavalry. At the same time, the Xuanwu Pool fell, reducing their maneuverability. Sex, the Longchi Sword swept across, and the Seven-Star Shattering Mountain Kill was blasted into the crowd. At the same time, there was another ice effect. As a result, more than 20% of the heavy cavalry were frozen and were killed by the Imperial Guards.
As soon as the contact came into contact, the Royal Forest Army did suffer a small loss. Many of them were penetrated by the opponent's spears. After losing their long weapons, Luo Xin's cavalry quickly raised their axes and chopped them at close range. He was able to knock down dozens of Imperial Guard cavalry. His hand ax was highly lethal and very light. This Luo Xin was truly a talented general.
It's just that the difference in numbers is too big. After a round of charging with 2,000 Imperial Guard cavalry, there were only 20 people following Luo Xin. Moreover, Luo Xin also lost a lot of energy and blood after killing several Imperial Guards. He is a quasi-boss of the Guiyang level. He is the same level as Han Yuan and cannot withstand the attack of a group fight.
