In Wen Yang's sight, Ji Zhu and his four hundred black cavalry did not charge, but stayed where they were. This made Wen Yang full of doubts.
"Four hundred black knights are enough." Unexpectedly, Wang Yi beside him said in a calm and confident manner.
This is a battle of destruction, not a forceful attack.
If it is a forceful attack, all eight hundred black cavalry should be charged, but if you want to prevent one enemy cavalry from escaping, you must leave some of your troops to guard it. As for the fact that only four hundred people charge, what's going on?
During the drill at Shangcang Mountain, the combat effectiveness of the four hundred black cavalry was even greater than that of the first brigade, even if the second brigade dispatched a thousand men, it could not be compared.
Those were the first and second battalions of the Su family army. Their thousand men were comparable to the seventeen hundred men of the Mongolian cavalry, and they were even richer.
Wang Yi had seen too many such things and didn't take it seriously. But Zhang Qi beside him didn't know it. Looking at the scene in front of him, he sighed, "You can't underestimate the enemy, you can't underestimate the enemy. Meng Qi is very powerful."
The Meng cavalry were indeed very powerful, otherwise, they would not have been frightened by just two hundred cavalry, so that their eight hundred infantry did not dare to leave the stronghold, and thirty thousand Song people huddled together and trembled.
It’s just that as the old saying goes, the strongest will always have the best.
I saw four hundred black cavalry rushing out, first slowly and then hastily, the speed is increasing step by step. This is also a manifestation of the cavalry's momentum. When they really meet the enemy, the momentum will be full, which is the peak of the war horse.
When the time comes, the strongest fighting power can be unleashed.
They were completely unlike those four thousand Song cavalry who only knew how to speed up the charge and wasted the foot power of the war horses in advance. They did not understand the fighting methods of horsemen at all.
Four hundred black cavalry pressed up, full of
Duratu's face was solemn, "Go, five hundred cavalry are facing the enemy head-on, and the others will flank them on the left and right. Eat these black cavalry first and then go on."
Not all the black knights rushed up, which made Mandu Ratu feel relieved. If he dared to underestimate himself, he would have to pay the price.
"Quick, everyone accelerates. Don't worry about the horse's leg strength. Kill this group of black cavalry first. If you can't kill them, pass them and continue to attack." He noticed that there were two more black cavalry chasing after him.
Come, Mandu Ratu didn't dare to stop for even a moment. He was afraid that if he slowed down a little, he would be entangled by the black knight. At that time, it would be very difficult to escape.
The five hundred Mongolian cavalry who received the order rushed toward the four hundred black cavalry with shouts belonging to their own nation.
Many of them had never heard of the name Black Cavalry. It is said that the ignorant are fearless. At this moment, they just thought that the enemy in front of them was not much different from the Song cavalry who had just been killed and fled in defeat.
"Disperse!"
Wang Can took the lead and rushed to the front. When he saw that Meng Qi only sent 500 people to block the road, while the others were outflanking him from both sides and trying to surround and kill him, he showed an indifferent smile on his face.
Do you underestimate the black knight?
Very good, but anyone who does this will have to pay a price.
A loose character, originally four hundred black knights, immediately spread to the left and right, giving people the feeling that a big net is expanding infinitely and opening up.
"As a team, shoot."
After noticing that the four hundred cavalrymen had occupied a large area, Wang Can shouted again and gave the order to attack.
The four hundred black cavalry, after they were completely dispersed, occupied a far larger area than the five hundred black cavalry on the opposite side.
Even bigger. If seen from a high altitude at this time, they look like a big open hand, while Meng Qi opposite looks like a fist.
The fist is indeed more powerful, but it also needs a chance to be punched out.
When the palm covers a larger area and can completely wrap around the fist, arrows fly straight out.
It's a direct flight, not a launch.
The eight-shot crossbow gun was an interface that was just opened in the system not long ago.
The advantage is that it can shoot eight crossbow arrows in a row, and it doesn't require any effort, just curling up with your fingers.
Moreover, the stability of the crossbow gun is better. Even if it is mounted on a war horse, there is no need to worry about too much deviation. Even if there is, after the black knight practices riding and shooting every day, he can quickly correct the direction, even if it is
Even if the first few arrows miss the target, the next few arrows will succeed.
In this way, when four hundred people hold eight consecutive rounds and fire bows and arrows, they can exert the power of two to three thousand people, which can greatly make up for the shortcomings of the insufficient number of black cavalry.
Of course, the eight-shot shot is not without its shortcomings. For example, the size is still too large, and the quality of the bow and arrow is extremely high. For example, arrows that do not meet the specifications cannot be loaded successfully.
This shortcoming can also be regarded as an advantage, because even if eight consecutive rounds are snatched away by the enemy, it is difficult for them to have suitable arrows to use. When it comes to Su Shi, it is just the opposite. For things produced by the system, you never have to worry about quality and quality.
Specification issues.
The palms stretched out and began to close continuously. The performance on the battlefield was that countless bows and arrows covered the five hundred Mongolian knights in a fan shape.
Meng's riding skills are very good. When they see the cavalry on the opposite side firing arrows, they instinctively
They were doing various dodge movements. Some people simply lay their whole bodies on the horses, or even more powerful, hid directly under the horses' lower abdomen, so that the arrows could not hit them.
.
When they fought against the Liao and Song armies, they would often do this when facing archers, and they could often turn danger into disaster.
Only this time, facing a black knight and eight consecutive shots, this set obviously had no effect.
With ordinary bows and arrows, it always takes time to prepare before firing the second arrow. During this time, Mengqi will change its position on the horse, allowing you to continue shooting empty.
But when faced with eight consecutive shots, the first arrow missed. By the time you were about to change positions, they had already adjusted the direction of the arrow, and following the second arrow, the third arrow would be fired in succession.
He was completely unable to adapt to this style of fighting, and he never expected that the opponent's bows and arrows would fire so fast. A Mengqi who was still showing off his skills was hit by arrows one after another, and then fell off his horse.
Plop... Like a duck in water, one after another fell off the horse. When the distance between the two sides increased from 120 to 80 steps, no less than a hundred Mongolian riders had been hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
"Speed up and kill!"
Seeing that our side had suffered such heavy losses in a short period of time, a Mongolian Cavalry Centurion leading the team shouted loudly.
He also wanted to take out his bow and arrow to reflect, but at such a close distance, and the black knight's bow and arrow seemed to be coming in a continuous stream without stopping, he had no time to do anything. He could only speed up and speed up again, hoping
You can get in close contact with the black knight, and the two sides will fight for real.
When they come together, the bow and arrow will have no effect.
Thump thump...
Normally, a war horse could reach the distance of eighty steps in just a few breaths, but now, it was like a huge chasm, which was so prohibitive for people.
"Disperse!"
Just when the five hundred Mongolian cavalry paid at least the price of more than two hundred cavalry, and finally rushed in front of the four hundred black cavalry, the black cavalry on the opposite side suddenly spread to both sides, and eight consecutive rounds continued, and this one would give people
It feels like there are arrows coming from all directions, which is really hard to guard against.
Centurion Mengqi, who was so angry that he almost vomited blood, punched the air. While the target disappeared, the arrows continued, and because Mengqi wanted to start a fight at this moment, the distance was too close, making them completely
He became the target of the black knight. As long as the direction was correct, when an arrow came, he could hit a black knight at will.
The number of more than two hundred Mongolian riders began to decrease sharply, and when there were finally less than a hundred left, they also escaped from the encirclement set by Wang Can. At this time, Mandu Latu took the remaining one thousand
Domengqi rushed over from the left and right sides.
Before the two sides even got close, four hundred cavalry were killed on their own side. This result was unacceptable to Mandu Ratu.
The Black Cavalry only had 400 men, but they managed to kill the same number of troops without any damage. The Black Cavalry was really difficult to deal with.
But in a difficult situation, and now that they have fought, Mandu Latu has no choice.
"Charge forward. As long as we fight with them, those arrows will be useless." Mandu Ratu shouted loudly, commanding more than a thousand Mongolian riders under his command to rush forward.
.
"Expand!"
Seeing the Mengqi coming from all directions, Wang Can, who was leading the team, was in no hurry. After a word of expansion, the four hundred black cavalry changed their formation again, slowly evolving from the original fan shape to a circle.
I don’t know how many times I have practiced it, many of the movements have become habits and engraved in my bones. Soon a big circle began to take shape surrounded by Mengqi.
There is a big circle outside, with about 150 people, followed by a middle circle inside, with about a hundred people. There are also three circles inside, with the number of people decreasing, making it like a target map for shooting.
.
The one hundred and fifty black knights on the outermost perimeter have already put away eight consecutive rounds, and each of them is holding an Overlord gun in their hands, looking majestic.
With them around, it is impossible for anyone to enter the circle. Unless they are all killed, it will be difficult for anyone to take a step forward.
The inner circle was full of archers holding eight consecutive rounds. They looked for the gap between the cavalry and the cavalry, and kept firing arrows outwards, causing the Meng cavalry who wanted to get closer to hit the arrows one after another.
With more than a thousand men on horseback, more and more people fell off their horses. After a while, one after another fell down.
"Charge! We must rush in and kill them, kill them!" Mandu Ratu yelled angrily.
Their majestic nearly two thousand Mongolian cavalry were unable to do anything against the four hundred black cavalry. In a short period of time, seven or eight hundred people had been killed. This result was really unacceptable to him.
The general spoke, and the Mongolian cavalry stepped forward bravely. Unfortunately, the scimitars in their hands were not as long as the Overlord's spear, and could not reach the black cavalry at all. On the contrary, once there was a chance, they would fly out at some point.
An arrow came to hit them and kill them.
The encirclement is still there, but it is much thinner. There are more than a thousand Mongolian riders, and the corpses dumped here are nearly a thousand riders.
