Why didn't you say it earlier, looking at Lao Tzu here and being confused?

Anyway, what's the matter with all of you forbidden soldiers?

Okay, don't follow Your Majesty to learn, this pretending to force one by one is learning very fast and thoroughly.

"What did Your Majesty say?" I was irritable behind my back, and I was polite in front of people, Han Xin asked honestly.

"Your Majesty said that the first row of the horse slashing array is squatting on the ground, the knife is stuck diagonally on the ground, holding the knife in his hand, and the purpose of this row is to stab or stab the war horse."

"The target of the second row is the cavalry on the horses, and if you want to dodge the blades of the first row before, you need to do some movements, which will inevitably affect their combat balance, and this time is the most suitable time to attack the people on the horses."

"The third row will cut off the limbs of the war horses, Your Majesty said don't cut them indiscriminately, pay attention to see if there is anyone on the horse, no one's war horse is the trophy ......"

Han Xin couldn't help but glance at it, and secretly said that His Majesty would definitely not say that.

Even if you say it, it's just saying, give me some leisure, it's all my war horses, if those grandsons threaten you, give me a damn beating.

However, Han Xin still seriously considered this formation.

Cavalry battles do not necessarily mean that they cannot be fought on foot.

And the deployment of the swordsmen does not need to be as compact as ordinary infantry.

Because between the cavalry and the cavalry, there will be a distance of two to three meters.

Don't ask, you're a fool to ask.

If the cavalry is lined up and charges like the infantry, then what a fart battle?

It just depends on who has more people, anyway, one-on-one face-to-face play, no one can enter anyone's body, just hit the head?

Therefore, when cavalry fights, keep a distance from friendly troops in order to allow enemy troops to enter and avoid head-on collisions.

Then the nomads can show their horseback skills.

Keeping a distance of three meters has no effect on the slash from behind.

At the same time, because the first row of chopping knives is inserted diagonally on the ground, as long as the opposite side is not a fool, it will take the initiative to avoid it.

Otherwise, with the speed of a war horse, it will be directly pierced from the chest, and then it will definitely not be considered if it hurts itself.

The two-meter-long blade is playing with you?

And at this time, the enemy cavalry needs to adjust its direction and may also prepare for an attack.

And because the first row is squatting on the ground, it is not easy for them to rely on scimitars to attack.

Moreover, at the speed of the cavalry, before they could swing their swords, the second row of attacks from behind came.

It doesn't matter if the first two rows are missed, there is also the third row.

By the way, there is also the long-range combat class such as the archers behind you.

They will inflict continuous damage on enemies before they get close.

As long as the defense depth of the slashers is sufficient, the archers behind and on the sides are unlikely to be threatened, and they can continue to distribute.

Then let the opposite side slow down.

And the cavalry, which had lost their speed, really had no advantage over the infantry except that they stood taller.

Even a nomad, even if he grew up on horseback, his agility must not be comparable to that of an infantry standing on the ground on two feet.

The front is in a difficult situation, and the back can only slow down the speed and then line up to send him to death.

Or go to the cavalry on both sides to play, but even if it is a lightly armed surprise soldier of the Han army, he is equipped with twenty-two pounds of armor.

How did the Huns play?

Run?

The cavalry is waiting for you to run.

Catch up directly, shoot you with a strong bow, and ask if you are afraid!

"It should work! Your Majesty's idea is really amazing! Han Xin suddenly woke up.

That's right!

Cavalry battles really don't necessarily have to be face-to-face and charge at full speed.

Spot the enemy from a distance, then dismount and line up, just wait for the enemy to attack.

If they don't come, I'll continue to push forward and go to their logistics to play, do you think he dares to continue running?

Besides, with the urine nature of the grassland people, such a large Han army suddenly appeared on the grassland, can they watch them pass?

What about tourism?

I'm sure I'll be around and fight.

So, when their speed slows down, can I use the heavy cavalry to charge them?

The front is a swordsman, in the middle is an archer, and in the back is a heavy cavalry.

Besides, my infantry is not really infantry.

They also have war horses, and when you are completely separated, I will just get on the horse and chase after you.

I have a Takahashi saddle, I have stirrups, and my soldiers can recover some strength on their horses, but the other side will definitely not be able to.

"How many?" Han Xin looked at the Forbidden Army Captain with a gleam in his eyes, he couldn't wait.

"Five hundred! His Majesty said that the general should find an opportunity to try it on a small scale, and if it is feasible, he will equip it in batches! The lieutenant said.

"Yes, yes, but why not cut the knife on both sides? Wouldn't it be more convenient to swing it that way? Han Shin asked a new question.

The back of the knife was too thick, and in his opinion it was a bit wasteful.

On the battlefield, every second counts, and if the blade is one-sided, the soldiers must take it back once they slash.

But it's not the same with the blades on both sides.

At the same time as it is withdrawn, it can also be attacked, which can greatly improve the attack efficiency.

"Your Majesty knew that the general would ask this question......" The captain of the forbidden army sighed, but he didn't expect to be guessed by His Majesty.

"Uh......" Han Xin was slightly embarrassed.

"Your Majesty said, the iron-smelting technology is still not in place, although the quality of the current horse chopping knife is already the best, but the two-sided blade, will inevitably make him thinner, but also more urgent, now the single-sided blade, one is to strengthen the hardness, so that he will not break on the battlefield, the other is to increase the lethality, although it is a little laborious to use......

Well, you're the boss, you have a point, I'll just listen.

Han Xin nodded silently.

Iron weapons are only now beginning to be installed on a large scale.

The cavalry under Han Xin was the first unit in the history of Zhuxia to be equipped with iron weapons.

This type of outfit refers to the top-down, not the kind that officers used to use iron.

It's easy to say about the outfit, and it's easy to say about the outfit.

The heavy cavalry under Han Xin can be pulled as a swordsman.

Their height, weight and strength can meet the requirements, after all, the meat for half a year is not eaten in vain.

But to test it on the battlefield, this made it difficult for Han Xin.

Now the grasslands are already grazing, preparing for the next winter.

There were scattered herdsmen everywhere, and the largest number of people was only 100 people, pulling 500 sabers, 1,000 archers, 2,000 cavalry, and 3,500 people to fight the herdsmen?

I Han Xin can't afford to lose this person.

Even if I'm willing to lose this person, it's not without problems.

The horseshoe, stirrups, and saddles are still hidden behind them.

If you want to go out at this time, the troops will inevitably need to be equipped with these things.

According to the original plan, it was necessary to equip it directly next year and then go on the expedition.

Regarding this thing, Wang Buxing once said that Han Xin also tried it.

Even he himself can imitate and make one.

Although it is not too strong and not very durable.

The principle is very simple, a sturdy wooden stick, a rope is enough.

In other words, the Huns only needed to fix a wooden stick to the current stirrups.

It's equivalent to replacing the soft stirrup with a hard stirrup, and it's better to say that the saddle or something, isn't it hard to learn if you have a look?

It can be made by wrapping a wooden stick in animal skin.

It's nothing more than the difference between good looking, good or not, and different experiences.

After thinking about it for a long time, Han Xin decided to give up the idea of going out to practice for the time being, which was not realistic at all.

Besides, new equipment, the troops must not adapt?

You must not run in the new formation?

Therefore, even if you want to try, you have to wait until the spring of next year to try again, and now, just stay here honestly, if the Huns can come, it will be the best.

You don't have to worry about exposing your harness, you can also experiment with it.

With that, Han Xin decided to pretend to be a force in front of this captain.

It's like you're coming out of His Majesty's side.

We Han Xin didn't lose back then, in terms of pretending to be forced, we may not have learned as much as you, and we didn't see as much as you.

But as a general, if I don't even dare to pretend to be this force, then how can I lead the troops to fight?

So, Han Xin looked at the other party arrogantly and said: "There are five thousand heavy cavalry under the command of this general, seven and a half feet tall, burly in size, not to mention the strength to carry the tripod, it is no problem to break people's bones with one punch, this horse slashing knife soldier can be equipped and trained immediately, and when the training day is completed, this general will pull them out and slaughter the Huns well!" ”

The other party rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty said, it's up to you to decide when ......"

"Then we have to do it as soon as possible, who is going to gather the heavy cavalry of the hussar battalion for General Ben......"
