Three thousand war horses came towards the wind with neat steps at the same time. Although the sound was not loud, it was extremely penetrating. The entire land was violently shaking in this torrent.
"Here we come!" Upon hearing this movement, Wang Yu had a slight smile on his face.
It is impossible for him to know that there is a huge flaw in the composition of his army. With this flaw, even if he has many generals under his command, it would be unwise to challenge the opponent head-on.
Moreover, even if Wang Yu himself did not discover the huge flaw in his own existence, with so many outstanding people under his command, wouldn't anyone be able to discover it?
Now that this battle has begun, they naturally have a plan in mind!
In contrast, the expressions of Huangfu Wugui and Chu Jingzhong, who seemed to have never changed, finally began to change.
However, no matter how ups and downs their moods are at this time, what should come will eventually come.
Liangshan is not a wealthy Zhendong Army. Fully half of it is made up of cavalry. The Zhenbei Army is even more exaggerated, with the share of cavalry reaching two-thirds.
The proportion of these cavalrymen laid the foundation for the strength of Zhendong and Zhenbei to be greater than that of Zhenxi and Zhennan.
As for Liangshan, even if Wang Yu secretly helped them and provided them with the source of the war horses without leaving any trace, Shi Zhixuan, Chang Yuchun and the others have only formed 3,000 horse soldiers out of the 30,000 Liangshan soldiers since they went to Liangshan.
That's all.
Among the three thousand horsemen, Lan Yu, as the commander-in-chief of the army, wore extremely strong armor. In addition to the outer breastplate, he also wore a rope armor underneath.
Behind Lan Yu, the eight hundred cavalrymen in the front had helmets buckled on their heads. The long lightning-rod-style helmets had red tassels fluttering in the wind, like burning fire. Together with the helmets, they were as bright as lightning.
The armor looks very penetrating.
These eight hundred people, like Sapphire at the front, took off the masks on their helmets, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. They looked like a group of robots.
There is an essential difference between these 800 people and the remaining 2,000 or so people. The 2,000 people are just ordinary cavalry, but the 800 people at the front are heavy armored cavalry.
If cavalry is considered to be the tank in the cold weapon era, these heavy cavalry are the tanks among tanks.
Of course, Liangshan did not have the ability to form such a heavy cavalry, but they did not, but Wang Yu did.
Wang Yu received a large sum of property when the family was divided. There were many good things in Liaoyang's treasury, and these eight hundred iron armors were just one of many good things.
Moreover, Lan Yu's men and horses are essentially his men. The equipment he gives them is essentially the same as the equipment he gives to his own men. They are both strengthening his power, but they are just strengthening it secretly!
The sunlight reflected and amplified on the mirror-like armor of the cuirassier, and the metallic brilliance was like molten lava, rushing in like a death coming out of hell.
At first, the war horse pushed forward slowly, then took small steps, then trot, and continued to accelerate. By the time the two armies came into contact, the speed of the war horse had reached its maximum.
Obviously, Lan Yu grasped this distance very well. When the two armies began to engage in hand-to-hand combat, the horse power of these three thousand cavalry was just maximized.
As a heaven-level commander, Lan Yu's abilities are certainly guaranteed.
Of course, there are many famous generals at the beginning of every dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is no exception. There were too many famous generals in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, such as Xu Da, Li Wenzhong, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, Chang Yuchun, Deng Yu, Mu Ying, etc., most of them
They were still Lan Yu's boss, so he didn't dare to lose his temper. But when these famous generals grew old one by one, Lan Yu also began to shine.
And since Lan Yu can step on Bei Yuan's body and rack up records, and even achieved a record of using 10,000 elite cavalry to defeat Bei Yuan's 100,000 troops, there is no need to doubt his cavalry commanding ability.
In the strong wind, Lan Yu pointed the waist knife straight ahead, and her fingers were deeply embedded in the hemp rope wrapped around the handle of the knife.
He was so dazzled by the sword and armor in front of him that he could hardly open his eyes. Adrenaline hormones were secreted in large quantities, and he wanted to scream and drink the enemy's blood with the sword in his hand.
Unfortunately, as the leader of an army, his body was surrounded by guards on both sides. These guards were all first-class warriors in the army, so it was not his turn to take action personally.
The sudden ambush caused the Hebei Daofu army to panic. A shrill horn sounded. In her chaotic vision, Lan Yu saw a group of enemy archers rushing out from the crowd, opening their bows and shooting in random directions.
Unfortunately, the bows and arrows of these archers do not seem to be of any practical use. With the power of these bows and arrows, they cannot cause any danger to the iron lumps at the front. At most, they only make a clanking sound.
If these archers were holding strong crossbows instead of longbows, that would still be interesting. But if they were armor-piercing crossbows, then it would be Lan Yu's heart.
There was only one chance, and before the archer, who had completely fallen into hysteria, could wind up his bow again, Death's sickle turned into a sledgehammer that was as heavy as a mountain, and smashed into the chaotic crowd.
There was no need for the cavalry to wave their sabers, as the huge inertia had already knocked a figure into the air.
The massacre began.
Right in front of Lan Yu, a man who looked like a government army officer brandished a spear and rode a big green horse. He led a group of soldiers and rushed forward, wrapping himself up with Lan Yu and others.
This officer seems to have good martial arts skills, and the armor on his body is also interesting. The robes are embroidered with patterns that can only be used by members of the Da Cang royal family. If someone who is not a member of the Huangfu family or a person who is not of the Huangfu family uses such patterns.
, to say the least is also a crime of losing one’s head.
Generally speaking, although members of the royal family have blood advantages, they only hold Zongzheng-type or some official positions without real power. Of course, if you are the heir of those powerful royal families, of course you cannot be so particular.
And if you don't have these connections, if you want to win some positions of real power, you have to join the army and fight or work your way up the political ladder.
However, his helmet did not have the long lightning rods like those of Sapphire and others, but was decorated with a cluster of yellow and red tassels. There were so many that they covered the entire helmet, which made him look like he belonged to an army.
Brown hair.
As for the dozens of soldiers following him, they were all armored, tall, and looked quite tough.
Their sudden attack caught Lan Yu and the others by surprise.
