Chapter 834: The North Di cavalry who are not united enough
Outside the south city gate, the Beidi cavalry left the city so slowly, which greatly exceeded Tang Ao's expectation. At some point, Wei Chao, the deputy chief of the General Staff, came to Tang Ao, "Dean, this is a
What a great opportunity.”
Of course Tang Ao knew that this was an opportunity. He would kill the enemy while they were still on their feet. Once they were done, they could directly chase the Beidi cavalry into the city. In this case, the so-called city tower would be of little use.
But then, the next thing to face is street fighting.
Since ancient times, street fighting has been the most brutal place for fighting. I am afraid that tens of thousands of people will not die before we capture Bumuji City. And if there are too many casualties here, what force will be used to attack Shile City, the capital of Beidi?
?
Another point is that Xiaojin and the others have already ascended into the sky, and it is impossible to contact them now. I am afraid that more thunder will fall from the sky soon. That thing does not distinguish between friend and foe. Once it is everywhere in the city,
What would be the result if it exploded?
Then many of your own people will also be killed and injured, right?
After thinking about it, Tang Ao still shook his head, "It's an opportunity, but it's not a good opportunity. Let's stick to the battle plan we made before."
Tang Ao gave up the opportunity to enter the city after careful consideration. Wei Chao retreated after hearing this. He knew that the dean was worried that the soldiers would suffer too many casualties after entering the city, and he would rather spend more thunder than reduce the losses.
It's just that the cost of making Tianlei is not low, especially the price of the third and fourth generations of Tianlei. Speaking of which, Tang Ao has made too many things that are too profitable. If it were replaced by another vassal king, he would definitely not be willing to do this.
Do it.
It's just a few people dying. In a time of chaos, the most valuable thing is human life. As long as there is food, are you afraid that you won't be able to recruit an army?
This is what makes Tang Ao different from other vassal kings. But it is precisely because of this difference that Tang Ao's body shines with an aura of human kindness, which makes people more convincing and makes people willing to sacrifice their lives for him.
In this moment, most of the Beidi cavalry had come out. Although they were still filing out, it was obviously not as chaotic as before. At this time, Zhou Jinwen, who was riding on the horse, picked up the bright silver gun in his hand.
, pointed forward suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers of the Tiger Regiment, listen to the order and charge!"
Zhou Jinwen would not wait for the Beidi cavalry to form a formation and charge forward. In that case, wouldn't it give the enemy time to prepare?
He had not launched a charge before, and he had his own calculation, that is, if he charged too early, it would easily scare back the other Beidi cavalry who wanted to leave the city. Now, more than half of the opponent's cavalry had charged, and that was the impact.
The best time.
Zhou Jinwen gave the order for the whole army to charge, and the five thousand heavy cavalry who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward in batches. If the ordinary cavalry only weighs about two thousand kilograms, then the heavy cavalry must weigh at least two thousand kilograms.
Hundreds of kilograms, when such a large force rushed forward, the ground began to tremble like a huge force.
The heavy cavalry launches a charge, unlike the light cavalry, which uses strong bows to shoot from a distance and uses crossbows at close range. What they emphasize is to defeat all obstacles with one force. What they emphasize is to press down the weight of the whole body and rush across.
other side.
Then, borrowing equipment that was armed to the teeth, a Monkey King came and made a scene. The heavy cavalry launched a charge. There was only a distance of three or four miles. When they came to the Beidi cavalry, it was the time when their legs were strongest.
Then, black armors rushed into the enemy formation one after another, like a giant torrent of steel, rushing into the enemy formation, unstoppable.
At the front of the Beidi cavalry were the 10,000 old and weak. Facing the 5,000 heavy cavalry rushing towards them, when they saw that the number was not as good as theirs, the eyes of each Beidi cavalry still shone, thinking that they had an opportunity to make a contribution.
But when the heavy cavalry rushed into their camp, knocking the people they hit off their feet, and the sabers in their hands fell on the heavy cavalry, but could not even break through their defenses, they realized what they were facing.
What kind of enemy is that?
When you can't kill your opponent with the same sword swing, but your opponent can easily kill you, the battle has actually been decided.
Ten thousand old and weak cavalrymen could still slash with swords at first, and the excitement could still be seen on their faces. But when they found that doing so was completely useless, on the contrary, once someone's bright silver spear stabbed or slashed,
But when it could easily leave a fatal wound on their bodies, they began to feel scared.
As soon as the heavy cavalry took action, the Beidi cavalry at the front fell off their horses in rows and fell in rows, with blood covering the ground.
This scene happened right in front of them, in front of the old and weak cavalrymen of Beidi. When blood splashed all over them, and when corpses were knocked away and fell beside them, the morale of the military began to waver greatly at this moment.
.
It is true that the Beidi foreigners grew up on horses. They are more brave and more adept at fighting than Ganren. All of this is caused by the environment.
Living in a world where the jungle prevails, it is impossible for a person not to be strong, even if it is to protect himself, he has to show his ferocious side.
To use a simple analogy, it is very difficult for Ganren to beat a fourteen-year-old child from Beidi. Sometimes even two or three people are not as good as one. Because Ganren knows etiquette, they
The living environment prevents them from showing their vicious side.
But it is precisely because they are too ferocious and even admire heroes too much that the Beidi people have a fatal flaw, that is, they are not united enough.
They don't convince people easily. They value more personal bravery and strength and don't know the difference between one chopstick and ten chopsticks.
Maybe if you pick one person at random, they are very brave and brave. But when many people gather together, they will not be able to exert their due fighting power. To use the simplest analogy, in them, one person
Adding one may not equal two, but only equal to 1.5 or less.
This is also the reason why the foreign races may seem very powerful, but there are still very few Han people who can really threaten the Central Plains. Just like Genghis Khan, who is known as the genius of his generation, he knows the importance of unity, because
Only through unity could his cavalry create such brilliant achievements. But after his death, his descendants were no longer united, and more than half of the powerful force's combat strength disappeared in an instant.
Naturally, Beidi couldn't compare to Tianjiao. They only knew how to fight on their own and could not exert the power of group battles. When facing the heavy cavalry of the Tiger Regiment, which was more capable than them, their deep-rooted worship of the strong began to take hold.
Let them lose the courage and guts to fight the heavy cavalry. If they don't even have the courage, it is equivalent to an army without its soul. Can you still win the battle with such an army?
The Beidi cavalry began to get into chaos less than a quarter of an hour after the two sides fought. Especially when they saw more than 10,000 light cavalry coming behind the heavy cavalry, they couldn't even muster the last bit of courage to resist.
.
In the eyes of these old and weak Beidi cavalry, the Jizhou Army cavalry was too powerful, so powerful that even if they resisted, it would have no effect.
The front army was in chaos, which immediately made Zu Mang behind him feel bad.
Originally, he wanted to use these old and weak men to wear down the sharpness of the Jizhou cavalry. When they fought together and their strength was exhausted, he suddenly attacked and reaped the benefits. But what he never expected was that the ten thousand old men would
Being so weak was so useless that not only could they not stop the Jizhou cavalry's advance, but on the contrary, their morale was greatly reduced and they were likely to be defeated.
A cavalry can advance and retreat naturally. But when retreating, it can only retreat in an orderly manner. The result of a defeat is very scary, and once it is defeated, the result is even more unimaginable.
If such a thing really happens, the 10,000 fine cavalry he brings will inevitably be affected. This is not the result Zu Mang wants to see. "Quickly, rush up and block the charging momentum of the Jizhou cavalry."
Zu Mang shouted loudly, and at the same time he took the lead and rushed forward with a group of soldiers.
On the battlefield, generals still play a very important role. Many times, when a general is defeated, an army without command cannot even produce 30% of its usual strength.
On the contrary, many times, if a general is brave enough, he can really turn the tide.
Just like what people say, a lion leading a flock of sheep can defeat a flock of lions led by a sheep.
Zu Mang took the lead and rushed over, which indeed gave great courage to the chaotic Beidi cavalry. Many people began to calm down and prepare for a counterattack.
Captain Zhou Jinwen has experienced hundreds of battles, and any changes on the battlefield cannot escape his eyes. The Beidi cavalry, which was about to be defeated just now, suddenly seemed to have the fighting spirit again, and all this fell on him
in the eyes.
Looking up, he was looking for the reason. If he didn't figure out the reason, the momentum of a big victory would be rewritten. At the very least, the victory wouldn't be that easy. If he didn't do it, he would be in trouble.
Larger casualties.
Looking at it like this and scanning the battlefield, Zhou Jinwen really discovered the suspicious person. It was Zu Mang who rushed in with nearly a hundred soldiers wearing a suit of armor and was already fighting with the light cavalry of the field army.
Beidi is very poor, and they don't know how to make iron at all, so ironware has always been a very valuable thing in their eyes. Therefore, armor is definitely a good thing for them.
Just like the usual Beidi cavalry, they usually only wear cloth armor, and most of them don't even have armor. And whoever can wear a set of self-defense armor, it goes without saying that he must be at the general level.
figure.
The attire revealed Zu Mang's identity and attracted Zhou Jinwen's attention. Then the leader of the Tigers pointed the bright silver gun in his hand, pointed it in the direction of Zu Mang and shouted loudly, "Young men of the first battalion.
