The cavalry's movements are light and flexible, and they can gather and disperse freely. They can travel hundreds of miles and travel thousands of miles, coming and going without interruption, so they are also called the soldiers of clutches.
Since the use of cavalry in the Central Plains during the Warring States Period, the advantage of cavalry has mainly been reflected in mobility rather than the impact of defeating the enemy. By the Han Dynasty, due to the large-scale application of cavalry in the war against the Huns, the role of cavalry gradually
Start to extend.
By the end of the Han Dynasty, heavy cavalry specifically used to rush into battle had appeared. However, generally speaking, the main role of cavalry was in mobile combat, and infantry was still the main force used to attack fortresses.
Gongsun Zan's white horse Yi Cong is a typical light cavalry.
The rider only has a piece of leather armor, and the horse only has a saddle and bridle. In a head-on conflict, he may have the upper hand at the beginning, but once he loses speed and gets caught in a dogfight, he is worse than an infantryman.
This is also the source of Hu Zhen’s confidence.
Baima Yicong's charge was also very fierce, but it was unable to disrupt the command system - that thing didn't exist at all now. Hu Zhen's orders could only be given to the few personal guards around him.
Although the formation of the Xiliang Army is in chaos, its morale is extremely high, and after losing command, they have fallen into a situation of fighting on their own. Baima Yi rushed in, and there is a certain chance of defeating the Xiliang Army, but it is more likely
Yes, they got into a chaotic fight.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Zhen could gather some of the rebel troops. As long as he gathered two to three thousand people, he should be able to withstand the flanking attack of Tao Qian and the Hanoi army.
It may be difficult to win, and the casualties will definitely be huge, but as long as he kills Wang Yu and repels Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian, Hu Zhen will be satisfied. In this situation, what else can he expect?
However, despite having a plan, Hu Zhen still had worries in his heart.
Baima Yicong caused quite a stir, but except for the soldiers who faced them head-on and realized the crisis and began to regain their senses, the rest remained the same.
The Xiliang military formation continued to shift to the right. Although the forwards had achieved encirclement, they failed to eliminate the target immediately.
As long as the target is still there, the Xiliang army's attention will not be diverted, but will continue to rush in the direction of Wang Yu. In other words, as long as Wang Yu is still there, Hu Zhen will not be able to control the army, even if Baima Yicong's
The charge to the formation will not work, and the coalition's follow-up troops will also pose a huge threat to the Xiliang Army.
"Kill him, kill him quickly! Let people pass the order! Let the archers shoot arrows! Even if you die, you can be made a lord!" This was the most correct decision Hu Zhen made after the war started.
However, this order was given too late, and all the organized archers had already been lost in the initial chaos. The people may not have died, but most of the bows and arrows were thrown away - those things were heavy and heavy.
It's in the way, it's not good at all for chasing the target, so why carry it on your back?
For Wang Yu, in a chaotic battle, a few more cold arrows are not enough, but a few cold arrows are not much. He is already in the forest of spears, and cold arrows will be more threatening than the swords and guns that are close at hand.
Bigger?
To stay alive during a siege, the most important thing is speed.
In cavalry combat, one must keep moving and cannot really be surrounded. Once really surrounded, there is no room to move around. No matter how strong a person is, he cannot cope with the swords and guns coming from all directions. At least Wang Yu
It can't be done.
The biggest reason why he dared to take risks and enter the battle was Wu Zhui.
This good horse, which Chief Hu loved like a treasure, lived up to Chief Hu's expectations at all. Not only did it have excellent speed, but it also had great endurance. After the raid on Huaxiong, it had been running for such a long time, and it was still in high spirits and not even a trace of it.
Fatigue.
With Wu Hao's speed, Wang Yu had the upper hand in the cavalry battle. The opponents catching up from behind and on both sides could not attack him, and the opponents rushing up from the front could not stop him. Although he seemed to be surrounded, he
But there has never been a major crisis.
This is also related to the fact that the people who surrounded them were all cavalry, and they were noisy and unorganized.
If the infantry were lined up, even if they couldn't attack Wang Yu, they could still attack the horses. Wang Yu would definitely not be able to take good care of him if he fired one shot at a time.
It's relatively easy now. As long as he guarantees not to be blocked by others, he can continue to support himself.
Of course, it also requires considerable bravery to fight a bloody path through a group of red-eyed warriors.
Martial arts is a must. This is a battlefield with real swords and guns. The strong will live and the weak will die! However, if you want to quickly defeat your opponent, you cannot just be strong in martial arts. In many cases, you can only exchange injuries for injuries, and exchange injuries for lives.
!
Up to now, Wang Yu's gun has killed more than thirty victims, and at the same time, there have been more than ten wounds of various sizes on his body.
Even the Xiliang soldiers, who were overwhelmed by their achievements and lost their minds, were shocked by Wang Yu's ferocity and came to a brief stagnation.
"Don't be afraid, he is just one person, he has suffered so many injuries, and he is not an iron-clad King Kong? What are you afraid of? The Commander-in-Chief has an order, life or death, he will be granted the title of Marquis! Come on, kill him!"
The school lieutenant who was delivering Hu Zhen's orders had already arrived near the battle group. Seeing that the forwards were cowering, but the troops and horses coming after them were still gaining momentum, he couldn't help but become anxious and tried his best to boost the morale of the soldiers.
This encouragement had a very good effect. The cavalry's timidity was suppressed as soon as it surfaced, their eyes turned red again, and their fighting spirit was rekindled.
However, this move brought him a lot of trouble. Wang Yu turned his horse's head and rushed towards him!
This captain was also a veteran on the battlefield, but he did not have the courage to ignore life and death like Wang Yu. Wang Yu chose Hua Xiong and killed many people in the chaos. How could he deal with such an opponent?
"He's coming this way, surround him and kill him!"
Without him having to give orders, the cavalry in this direction had already come forward to meet him.
There were many tough soldiers in the Xiliang army. In this siege, what depressed them most was not how strong Wang Yu was, but the fact that most of them couldn't find their target at all and kept wandering around the perimeter.
There was no one to direct and control Wang Yu. He was very fast and kept changing direction. It was extremely difficult to see him in the chaos among the army.
Of course, the danger you see is not that great!
The first cavalryman to rush forward threw away his sword before he even raised it. He covered his throat with both hands, and blood spurted out from between his fingers.
The throat is relatively soft, and piercing it can immediately make the opponent lose combat effectiveness, and it is also easy to pull out, so this is Wang Yu's first choice.
However, not every opponent, like the first opponent, waved his sword and exposed the empty door.
The second opponent was very cautious. During the sprint, he kept his spear held flat. Even if the distance was quite close, he would not stab it out easily. His body was slightly hunched, like a coiled snake.
For this kind of opponent, Wang Yu's method is to defeat him with force!
He held the handle of the gun with one hand and swung the spear directly, like a long whip, with a sharp sound of breaking the wind, and smashed it directly.
The Xiliang soldier was caught off guard and managed to block it with his spear, only to find that a powerful force came from the spear shaft, which he could not withstand at all. He could not even sit on the saddle, and he and the spear were knocked off the horse.
!
Wang Yu didn't even look at his opponent who was rolling in the dust. He continued to use his spear as a whip, fired his bow left and right, knocked over the two cavalry who had adjusted their speed and rushed up side by side, and faced the captain who was delivering the order head-on.
With an outnumbered enemy, melee combat is his biggest guarantee. The existence of this captain may restore some order to the Xiliang army and pose a fatal threat to himself. Therefore, this person must be killed!
"Kill!" The captain was timid at first, but after realizing that there was no way to retreat, he regained his courage, mobilized his horse, and charged directly towards him.
Veteran soldiers who have been on the battlefield and experienced fighting are just different! If Niu Fu was not such a waste, the Hanoi army would have no chance of winning against such an opponent.
However, now, your opponent is stronger, so you will only suffer a heavy defeat!
Pull back, hold the handle, gather the thrust, and the roar starts again!
In a mounted battle, Wang Yu cannot mobilize all his strength like in an infantry battle, but he can rely on the power of a war horse! No matter how strong the manpower is, it cannot match the power of a galloping horse. Wang Yu's spear power is faster in a mounted battle.
More than double?
Just like many times before, when the two horses were intertwined, Changfeng once again broke through the barrier of the armor leaf and drank blood! However, the difference was that the opponent's hands did not cover the wound in vain, but held it tightly.
The spear in Wang Yu's hand!
"Hey, even if you kill me, you won't be able to live..." The captain struggled and showed a ferocious smile.
What a tough soldier! Wang Yu secretly praised him in his heart, but he did not dare to neglect his hands. Speed is life. Seeing that his weapons were blocked, the surrounding enemy cavalry were speeding up to rush forward. The only outcome of stagnation would be death!
"Drink!" Wang Yu raised his might and shouted, directly lifting the captain into the air. The captain counterattacked temporarily and used great strength. Even though he had been provoked, his hands were still holding the gun barrel tightly.
He shouted loudly: "Kill, kill him!"
"Kill!" The Xiliang army was greatly encouraged and fought with all their might.
"Whoa!" Wu Zhui sensed Wang Yu's thoughts, and he hissed while running. He stood up, turned in an incredible direction, and the horse's hooves fell heavily. Following this momentum, Wang Yu mustered up his strength and raised his spear.
Swing it hard!
The huge inertia was far beyond what the dying opponent could contend with. He could no longer hold the gun barrel and was thrown out, like a big sandbag, hitting the two cavalry head-on.
While knocking over the rider, the horse was startled, creating a chaos. Wang Yu then rushed forward, dodged with his long blade, and stabbed several people in succession, finally carving a bloody path.
"Chase!" The ferocity of the Xiliang army was completely aroused.
"Oops, it's the east side, he's going to run away!"
"Don't let him go. He's killed so many of us and he can't even think of escaping!"
Wang Yu is indeed about to retreat.
He consumed a lot of energy, especially the last one. It seemed majestic, but it put a huge burden on physical strength. However, the Xiliang army was more brave than at the beginning. If the fight continued, it would really become a life-and-death battle. This was not a battle.
It was a war to the death, and this was enough for now.
Next, it depends on the performance of the friendly forces.
It's not an easy job to be a lone brave among thousands of troops! You can see the big from the small. The battle I encountered today was far from the legendary Changban Slope. It is conceivable that the hero of Changban will be there again.
What a heroic figure!
I really can't wait.
When Wang Yu broke out of the siege, he had thousands of thoughts in his mind, but in the end he only came to one conclusion: after this battle, the search for Zhao Yun must be accelerated.
