Chapter 71: The Cavalry Team Showing Their Fangs
Plate after plate of barbecue was delivered to the left and right viewing platforms like water, and the tables were filled with wine and meat for the civil servants and military generals to feast on.
Of course, compared to the heroic generals, the food and appearance of civil servants are much more gentle.
However, as spectators, they were more active than the generals.
Among them, Li Si and Feng Quji received the most comments.
"Youxiang Feng, which team do you like?"
"Of course it's the team of Xin Haicheng, the son of General Xin."
Li Si: "I heard that Wang Li, the son of Marquis Tongwu, also participated. Don't you think highly of him?"
Feng Quji took a sip of his wine and said, "Although Wang Li is also a general, he lacks actual combat experience, and Xin Haicheng has been with General Xin these years and has considerable experience in the use of cavalry tactics, so
The winning rate is naturally higher."
"I'm sorry Li disagrees."
Li Si: "I think Wang Li's winning rate is higher."
"Why?"
"Because there is Young Master Kun in Wang Li's team."
"Oh?" Feng Quji raised his eyebrows: "What's so special about Young Master Kun?"
Li Si smiled and joked: "Haha, of course I have to ask Marquis Tongwu about this special feature!"
"I heard that Marquis Tongwu is planning to marry his daughter to Young Master Kun, and my father-in-law wants a son-in-law. Isn't that right..."
"There is such a thing!"
When Feng Quji heard what he said, he looked at Wang Bi with surprise: "Marquis Tongwu, is Li Zuoxiang serious about what he said? Why do you fall in love with Young Master Kun?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a "click" sound suddenly sounded.
Um?
Everyone heard the sound and looked towards the high platform.
The person sitting on the high platform was Ying Zheng.
"..."
Wang Ben rolled his eyes inwardly and thought to himself that this bastard Li Si wouldn't pick up any of the pots.
"I don't know anything."
Wang Ben replied expressionlessly, then turned his attention to Wang Li's team.
The look in his eyes was cruel.
"You brat, if you lose, I'll see if I don't skin you."
"The cavalry enters!"
With an order coming from nowhere, the long-awaited cavalry battle drill finally began.
Soon, the sound of intensive horse hoofbeats was heard, and everyone turned to look at the team on the left that was the first to enter.
After hundreds of cavalry wearing black armor and riding horses appeared, they entered the venue one after another.
Looking carefully at the cavalry, it was led by a heroic young man and a high-spirited young man. The two men arched their hands in the direction of the stands.
Someone immediately recognized the young man as Hu Hai, and naturally knew that this was Ma Liang's team.
But what surprised everyone was that this team looked neat and tidy, not like a county cavalry at all.
The Qin Dynasty's army was divided into three types, namely, capital troops, county troops, and border troops.
Due to geographical environment, soldiers' physical condition and other reasons, the strength levels of county soldiers are not uniform.
Generally speaking, there are more cavalry in the north and northwest, while in the hilly areas there are more officers and boatmen.
However, overall, the strength of Ma Liang's team should not be underestimated.
"Oh, you are all discussing Xin Haicheng and Wang Li, but you are ignoring Ma Liang, the son of Governor Ma!"
At this time, Ying Zheng, who was sitting high up in the stands and behind the gauze tent, suddenly let out a "ha" and joked.
"this……"
Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other awkwardly, and the latter raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, although Ma Liang's team is not bad, there is still a gap between Xin Haicheng's team."
"Why, Prime Minister Feng is already convinced before the competition even begins?"
This question caused Feng Quji to suddenly break out in cold sweat on his back. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "I'm talking nonsense after drinking. I hope Your Majesty won't blame you!"
He couldn't understand why Ying Zheng suddenly targeted him, and subconsciously looked at Li Si.
Li Si felt a little funny in his heart. You look down on other people's sons in front of others. Who else are you targeting if not you?
After a moment of silence, Xinhai City's cavalry also appeared.
Compared to Ma Liang's team, Xin Haicheng's team can only be described in two words: elite.
After all, they are the soldiers of the capital guarding Xianyang. In addition to strict discipline, years of training, and experience accumulated on the battlefield, this team is unstoppable.
Walking from a distance, one can actually feel a chilling air coming towards one's face.
"Amazing! It's really amazing! The elites of our Great Qin are indeed unrivaled!"
"Hahaha! You did it right! You did it right! You will definitely make a lot of money this time!"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Let's watch the first scene first. Anyway, Young Master Kun allows us to watch the chase!"
"That's right, let's talk about it after reading it. Speaking of Young Master Kun, why haven't we seen his team yet? He must have run away!"
"Look! What is that!"
Just when the people watching were talking about it, a special team appeared in front of them.
I saw this cavalry team, all of whom were wearing bronze masks, making it impossible to see their expressions.
They were arranged in a dense formation, holding slender wooden guns, and they appeared so neatly on the training ground. It looked quite funny.
"Hahaha, the cavalry are actually fighting in formation?"
"Wang Li is still a general, and he doesn't even understand the most basic common sense. How can he lead troops in battle?"
"Yes! The cavalry pays attention to flexibility and maneuverability. Such a formation will collapse in one attack! Moreover, those long spears will also restrict the movement of the cavalry, which is simply superfluous!"
The generals on the viewing platform burst into laughter when they saw Wang Li's team appear.
Wang Ben on the side had a dark face.
His thoughts were similar to those of the generals, and he also felt that Wang Li had made a mistake in military common sense.
Seeing everyone talking about it, Li Si looked at Xin Sheng curiously: "I wonder what General Xin saw?"
After hearing this, everyone immediately became quiet and looked at Xin Sheng together.
Xin Sheng then raised his head and looked at Wang Ben: "Marquis Tongwu uses his troops like a god. If it is his newly researched tactics, it is normal for us not to understand."
Everyone thinks it is wrong, but it may not really be wrong.
After all, there is a common saying in the military: Soldiers are crafty!
Thinking of this, everyone turned their attention to Wang Ben again.
But Wang Ben shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't create this tactic, and I can't see the clues."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on Wang Li's team again, and no one was even remotely interested in the fine wine and food in front of them.
at the same time.
Wang Li and Zhao Kun in the team rode side by side.
"Sir, if we go out in this way, won't we expose our trump card? How to deal with it in the future?"
Wang Li's voice was very low, as if only Zhao Kun could hear it.
But Zhao Kun laughed softly and said: "The more people can understand it, the more they can catch it by surprise."
"The core of wall charge is not appearance, but organization and discipline! Remember! Everything goes according to plan!"
"clear!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the order conveyed from nowhere sounded again.
"The first game of cavalry battle drill, cavalry shooting."
"Battle against the first group, Ma Liang and Wang Li."
"Send my general's order! Get ready!"
As the order was conveyed, Wang Li and Ma Liang's teams entered the training ground one after another, and then a fierce riding and shooting battle was about to break out!
clang--
Gongs and drums sound, war horses neigh.
"start!"
