Chapter Eighty-Nine: Thousand Riders Roll Hiraoka

Cuiping Mountain is a mountain range on the boundary of Suzhou. There are many mountains in the south of the Yangtze River since ancient times, there are countless large and small mountain ranges, the peaks of Cuiping Mountain are towering, meandering, the mountains are lush with trees, the roads are intricate, it is not the old woodcutter who travels with the mountains all the year round, the old hunter with strong vigilance, and it is difficult to be familiar with the surroundings of Cuiping Mountain.

On the official road of Suzhou ten miles away from Cuiping Mountain, a group of 5,000 soldiers and horses are marching on the official road, the 5,000 dragon army has 3,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry, the infantry is divided into three queues, a group of 1,000 sword and shield soldiers, each holding a heavy shield in his hand, a steel broadsword, complete armor, and a solemn look in the first column of the infantry.

Then there were thousands of archers, each of whom carried a stone-powered iron-tired bow, covered with light armor, and in the quiver behind them were twenty fine clusters of arrows, although they could not see the tips of the arrows, but only by looking at the size of the shafts and the feathers of the tail wings of the arrows, they knew that these arrows must be terrifyingly injurious, and if they were shot, they would pass through the body, and if they did not die, they would be seriously injured and difficult to treat.

The soldiers and horses in the last queue are divided into two arms, pikemen and halberd soldiers, the top of the gun barrel is about one foot and five feet, which is flashing with cold light, and the sharp halberd blade, once besieged by the pikemen, all the corpses and bones are incomplete, all of them are blurred by the flesh and blood of the living stab, and it is difficult to distinguish the relatives.

The configuration of only 3,000 infantry is enough to fight a small battle.

At the head were 2,000 cavalry, with a queue of 1,000 men each for the light cavalry and heavy cavalry on either side of the infantry.

The light cavalry is mainly used to disturb the enemy's military heart, sneak attack the rear infantry, and harass the formation of the cavalry, because the light cavalry is lightly armed and simple from the mobility ability is extremely strong, often after a charge, the enemy's formation has not been fully set up, and after the charge, you can only watch the light cavalry flee away, waiting for the next opportunity to attack.

The heavy cavalry is protected by full-body armor, even the horses are equipped with light armor protection, they are mainly responsible for charging into battle, the heavy cavalry is not the same as the light cavalry, the light cavalry is better than harassing the enemy, the heavy cavalry is better than the heavy damage, a thick armor, the rough and sharp broadsword, plus the momentum of the war horse running, can knock people to death, and finally be trampled by ten thousand horses The bones are gone.

And both light and heavy cavalry soldiers will carry a small crossbow, when the reunion, the short soldiers have not yet touched, first cover a batch of arrow rain with hand crossbows, and the rear infantry will immediately arrow support when they see this, which is enough to increase the enemy's wounded by 20%.

The soldiers of the Great Dragon Dynasty have a clear priority and priority, advance and retreat in an orderly manner, and there are main and auxiliary, but whenever the main formation team is established, all the auxiliary soldiers must fully cooperate, and a team of soldiers who violate the order will be killed.

A lightly armed Jane who carried three flags from behind grabbed the reins of his horse and stopped in front of the leader of the army: "General Zhang, the scout has reported that the traces left by the secret agents have been discovered, and Cuiping Mountain is the main altar of the White Lotus Sect. ”

"Probe again, don't disturb the bandits of the White Lotus Sect, find out the situation of their personnel defense, try to catch them off guard, and wipe out all the bandits who have been plagued by fire for many years, and exchange them for the people of Jiangnan for a river Qinghai Yan."

"Obey." The scouts are gone.

"Deputy General Sha, pass the order, after discovering the traces of the White Lotus Sect, the light cavalry immediately showed a roundabout trend to outflank the White Lotus Sect, and the heavy cavalry attacked head-on to break through the defensive forces of the White Lotus Sect, covered with crossbows, five hundred archers supported in the rear, and five hundred archers as a reserve to prevent those masters from using light skills to leave, and blocked every point in the air with bows and arrows, so that not a single bird in Cuiping Mountain could fly out. The sword and shield men covered the archers on the spot to prevent the bandits from raiding the archers of the thousand-man team, and the spear and halberd teams surrounded the White Lotus Sect bandits in a chaotic formation in batches after the heavy cavalry charged, and killed them on the spot. ”

"Obey."

"Commander Qi, those masters of the White Lotus Sect will be handed over to you, you guards, don't let go of a White Lotus Sect bandit." "General Zhang, rest assured, as long as a large number of people are controlled, those masters will be dealt with by our inner guards." Behind a leader wearing unusual armor were seven Ouchi masters, all of whom were seven-rank masters, and they also nodded slightly.

"These White Lotus bandits have been entrenched in Jiangnan for several years, and the imperial court has been negligent because of the war in the northern grasslands, I can't imagine that these bandits have become a little bit of the climate and are so arrogant, and they have blatantly launched attacks on several states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, these garrisons in Jiangnan are also waste, and the White Lotus Sect can't defend such a few people, and the imperial court really raises them in vain."

"General Zhang said cautiously, Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, and the hinterland of my Great Dragon Dynasty has rarely seen a war attack in decades, and it is understandable that the garrison looks like this."

"Hmph, what is cautious, is what Lao Tzu said wrong? Lao Tzu killed the Turks in northern Xinjiang, killed the people of the Jin country, I joined the army at the age of fifteen, from a small soldier all the way to the bloody river to kill a protector of the country, Lao Tzu's scars Lao Tzu himself can't count, these Jiangnan children read a few broken books, make two bad words can be ranked in the court, and point fingers at Lao Tzu. ”

"General Zhang can't talk nonsense, I believe that those civil officials impeached you to Your Majesty."

"Impeachment is impeachment, who doesn't know that Lao Tzu respects scholars, Lao Tzu criticizes those rotten Confucians, sour Confucians, and those who will do it will be useless, but Lao Tzu respects the bloody nature of Song Yu, the secretary of the military department, he is also a scholar, and Lao Tzu respects the right Xiangtong."
