I’m The King Chapter 776: : Sunrise East (1)
Alun Dai never thought that the Donghu people should hide in the city to defend, even if the enemy was stronger than him. The Eastern Zheng Army came aggressively, and there were as many as 50,000 cavalry in the vanguard. Alundai did not hesitate to lead 10,000 cavalry out of Jingyuan to fight.
Alundai has lost two battles in his life, and both times he was defeated by Gao Yuan. In the end, he only escaped with his body. The second time was during the Yan Kingdom's expedition to Donghu, in Huaying, in a dense fog, he was defeated by Gao Yuan again, and thousands of cavalry were thrown across the country. In the corpse battlefield, his Tieling cavalry was almost disabled. In the end, it was Thorpe who merged the also crippled Keller into Tieling, which restored his vitality.
These two battles made Alundai unforgettable. Whenever he thought about this, the scar on his face would ache. This time, when the Eastern Zheng Army came again, the cavalry general was actually replaced by a woman.
How could Arendel think she was inferior to a woman?
Defeat their cavalry first, and then their infantry. This is Alundai's simplest and most true idea.
Two cavalry with a total of more than 20,000 horsemen encountered Jingyuan at Tianshuijing, a dozen miles away.
Since Gao Yuan was a small soldier in Fufeng, He Lanyan helped Gao Yuan train the cavalry. As Gao Yuan's power expanded day by day, she trained more and more cavalry. She is her real apprentice. It can be said that the infantry who only knew how to ride horses back then has an inseparable relationship with her to become the most famous cavalry general today.
The long years of cavalry training has allowed He Lanyan to have a deeper understanding of cavalry combat than ordinary cavalry generals, under Gao Yuan's command. The population is complex. There are Huns who grew up on horseback, and Yan people who are not good at riding and shooting. Later, there were people from Qi and Qin. How the refugees from Zhao, Wei, Han and other places combined these uneven warriors into a powerful cavalry once made her brain troubled.
Excellent cavalry cannot be trained in a day. In a short period of time, it is a dream to make those warriors who can barely ride horses into excellent cavalry. Compared with Donghu people. This inherent disadvantage is irreversible at all.
So there were four hundred black-clothed guards that He Lanyan used as experiments, and there were Mei Hua and Uncle Wu Yalang, who were outstanding in riding but were eliminated from the black-clothed guards.
Among the 400 black-clothed guards, none of them is outstanding in riding skills, which can barely be regarded as mediocre, but strict discipline, strong team strength, and dense formation during battle are as fast as a raptor General charge. Let this black-clothed guard make people feel fresh and new when they first entered the battlefield, and played a huge role, with this successful experience. After He Lanyan became the commander of the independent cavalry division of the Northern Army, she immediately began to build her own cavalry unit according to this model.
Among the original cavalry, except for the leading officer of each cavalry, the rest of the cavalry was too good, so they were eliminated and sent to the infantry to serve as cavalry scouts. It was opposed by Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei. But under He Lanyan's dominance, the two could only obey. After more than half a year of training, He Lanyan transformed this cavalry division.
This is also the reason why He Lanyan convinced Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei. This cavalry. Pulling it out alone may not be the opponent of any Donghu people, but when they gather in a group, the burst of energy will startle Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei, who have been fighting old battles. People have also changed their thinking, if they stand on the opposite side of He Lanyan, how should they face such a group of cavalry charging?
The two of them thought separately at first, and finally got together to discuss, and the final result could only be that if they were given twice as many cavalry as He Lanyan, they would be able to win in a fight of consumption. Confronting the attack head-on, roaming and shooting around the periphery, peeling off He Lanyan's cavalry layer by layer like peeling an onion.
But in this way, the cavalry who are being pinned will pay a heavy price.
He Lanyan has painstakingly trained this cavalry for more than half a year, seeing that a big battle is about to come in handy, how can she not come to the battlefield to command it herself? But at this time, she was pregnant. For this, she had already scolded Gao Yuan half to death in her heart. After struggling, she finally decided to direct the battle herself, and saw her hard work blooming on the battlefield , nothing could be more seductive than this.
At this moment, He Lanyan reined in her horse on a hillside and went down the hillside. Her 15,000 cavalry were divided into three attacking formations. It is particularly eye-catching, unlike most of the military flags of the Zhengdong Army, which are bright red, He Lanyan's black-clothed guards even have black military flags.
"Teacher, it's enough for you to watch this battle here, let me and Luo Lei take the boys." Gongsun Yi said to He Lanyan almost in a pleading tone. "Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the little prince in your belly. How can you bear the bumps of the horse? If you have a small accident, even if we win this battle, we will lose it." .”
Gongsun Yi still has something to say in his heart. He finally climbed from the cavalry captain of a small tribe to the current high position. Three pros and two shorts, I am afraid that his road to soaring will come to an end here.
"Don't worry, I'll just watch over here." He Lanyan nodded, "As long as you are upbeat and knock this Alundai down, can I eat sand?"
"That's good, that's good!" Gongsun Yi felt relieved. "You can see it!"
Gongsun Yi rode his horse and galloped towards his formation. Looking at his back, He Lanyan laughed dissatisfiedly. Look here, what am I doing here?
Smoke and dust billowed in the distance, horns were shrill, and thousands of troops and horses galloped in. Watching the scene of Donghu cavalry attacking, He Lanyan couldn't help snorting, "It's the same old stuff, nothing new at all. Blow the horn and attack!"
Behind He Lanyan, ten cavalrymen holding bugles raised their bugles at the same time. The horn sounded, and twelve thousand black-clothed guards were divided into three attack formations and started slowly.
There are tens of thousands of cavalry, boundless, and the visual effect and visual impact of the charge of ten thousand cavalry is far beyond that of ten thousand steps. Standing on He Lanyan's position, you can see What was seen was the boundless Donghu cavalry rushing towards her direction, like a river with a broken embankment, unstoppable. For ordinary people, under this kind of momentum, it is very easy to feel fear, but He Lanyan is someone who is used to large-scale cavalry charges, so she is not moved at all.
On the battlefield with a radius of more than ten miles, the Donghu cavalry was unstoppable like a flood, but the three cavalry attack groups of the East Conquering Army charged straight into the flood like three black sharp swords.
Feathered arrows are flying in the air like locusts. For the Donghu people, the skill of riding and shooting is commonplace, but it has always been a problem for the cavalry of the Eastern Army. It is no longer possible for them to maintain such a dense formation and strict lineup if they have to bend their bows and put their arrows on the horse. Therefore, after the cavalry entered the range of the feather arrows, the first thing they had to do was to endure the opponent's long-range attack. In order to reduce the load on the horses, the cavalry cannot wear too thick armor, and this cavalry division obviously cannot be like Gao Yuan's red guards, everyone's armor is specially made. Therefore, they can only protect the most important parts of their bodies, such as helmets and heart goggles, while in other places, they only wear leather armor
The only good thing is that the cavalry's bow is soft, as long as it doesn't hit the face and other vital places, it is generally not fatal, and the cavalry in a dense formation, when the opponent's arrows are like locusts, Uniform stretched the spear into the air and waved it vigorously. Most of the feathered arrows were knocked down under this blow, and a few got into the crowd, causing extremely limited damage
The Feather Arrow didn't disrupt the opponent's formation, and the opponent didn't even make any evasive moves at all~IndoMTL.com~ It was still like a big axe, slashing straight at Alundai. Alundai, who is used to the traditional cavalry combat, couldn't help being stunned. He had never seen cavalry fighting like synchronized soldiers, lined up in such a neat formation, and crushed like a stone roller.
"Containing from the front, shooting from the flanks!" Surprise is nothing but surprise, but Alun Dai still made the correct judgment and made the best choice in the shortest time. The only shortcoming is that his strength Insufficient in the attack surface of the three frontal assaults of the Zhengdong Army, his strength is too weak
Gongsun Yi, Luo Lei and others are all accustomed to using scimitars, but in this cavalry team, they must also be like the most ordinary soldiers, pick up their long spears and finally survive the range of feathered arrows, Gongsun Yi growled With a cry, he lowered his body, pointed his spear forward, and roared: "Break the formation!"
"Break the formation!" The cavalry of each independent cavalry division roared, and thousands of people bowed their bodies all at once, pointing their spears forward. From a distance, it was a spectacular sight Of course, the opponents in front of them would not think so. What appeared in front of their eyes was a pair of spears that were shining with cold light
Assault, assassination, never stop, during this process, if you fall off the horse, you can only die, because the follow-up assault team will never stop at the slightest (to be continued)
