Regarding the cavalry archery of the grassland people, Pei Min had a conversation with Xia Shan when he was training the light cavalry under his command.

He saw that Xia Shan was training the cavalry and archery skills of the light cavalry, and Pei Min put forward different opinions.

He felt that no matter how much Xia Shan trained in this riding and archery, unless a few people were talented, most people could hardly compare to the steppe nomads.

Riding and archery is a part of life for nomads, who generally start learning to ride horses at the age of six or seven, and can already run horses and shoot arrows in their early teens. And unless they are in a rich family, there are not many ordinary soldiers who have mastered horsemanship, let alone difficult riding and archery kung fu.

On the basis of the soldiers, the soldiers of their farming peoples are riding and shooting, and they will congenitally lose to the nomads.

This is an ethnic difference, something that is difficult to compensate.

Since it can't be compared, Pei Min does not recommend that Xia Shan focus on the training of mounted archery.

It is the truth to play to your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and it is not worth it to spend time on the enemy's advantages and put in the effort.

Compared with the grassland peoples, the advantages of the Tang army are obvious, strict military discipline, execution, fighting skills, military formation coordination, as well as sharp weapons, excellent armor, these are not the grassland peoples can compare.

Instead of training light cavalry to shoot at nomads, it is better to train how to approach quickly and engage them in hand-to-hand combat.

How to dodge arrows has become one of Xia Shan's main training items, and after six or seven years of training, the Zhenxi Army has mastered the skill of changing formations to dodge arrows, and shines in this battle.

Dodge two rounds of hard shots, a few breaths, and the two sides hit hard in one place!

The Tang army has increased its speed to the extreme, but the Shatuo Turks have not yet increased their speed.

As soon as the general contact was made, the difference was very clear, and the Tang army gained a decisive advantage.

The cavalry of the Zhenxi Army wedged the cavalry of the Shatuo Turks, cutting the loose formation of the Shatuo cavalry, showing the results of their training over the years.

They swung their sharp sabers, in groups of five or six, and fought against the cavalry of the Shatuo Turks, cutting off the Shatuo people from their horses like mowing grass, and the blood was splashed on the grass full of fresh green.

Xia Shan's performance was even more unsufficiency, she struggled to impact, the men and horses were integrated, and the hundred refining knives in her hands started to chop off the heads of the oncoming Shatuo cavalry, leading the Zhenxi army to continuously advance towards the hinterland of the Shatuo soldiers' formation.

With the help of the impact, Xia Shan took the lead in penetrating this enemy force with a devastating force.

Rushing out of the enemy formation, Xia Shan did not immediately turn back to cover the kill, but continued to accelerate forward, made a circle to the right, increased his speed, and entered the enemy formation again from the right rear of the Shatuo Turk.

Hu Yanjie couldn't imagine that he would be so embarrassed by a single face, and glanced at his own soldiers around him, only to see dead corpses everywhere, and couldn't help but gasp: almost under a single face, his own side almost lost more than 400 elite cavalry.

Looking at Xia Shan, who launched another new round of assault, he knew that if he couldn't stop this assault again, he would really be happy.

He roared loudly, led more than 100 followers, and fiercely collided with the oncoming enemy.

Blood splattered, and people turned on their backs.

At the moment when Hu Yanjie's bones were about to collide with the enemy horse, the mace swung out violently, smashing the opponent's people with weapons and flying out together.

He saw Xia Shan's existence and knew that she was the commander and commander of this army, so he couldn't help but rush towards her.

His horsemanship is extremely high, and he actually grabbed the position in an instant, and met Xia Shan, and the mace slammed into Xia Shan's face.

Xia Shan was a woman after all, and her wrist strength was weak, so she didn't dare to take this plan hard, so she lay flat on her back on the horse.

Hu Yanjie's bones waved into the air.

Although Xia Shan avoided it, the horse still maintained a forward state, and the two staggered.

Xia Shan straightened up and shouted, "Protect me!" ”

Immediately, the left and right cavalry rushed to Xia Shan's surroundings to fend off the enemy on all sides.

Xia Shan bit the war knife with her mouth, took off the bow and arrow on her back, turned around and opened the bow to aim!

Hu Yanjie made a move to the air, and scolded "Coward!" ”

I was about to turn around and find the other party, in the current battle situation, only by killing her could we turn defeat into victory.

But he is surrounded by Tang Army, where can he turn around as he wishes for a while?

Wielding a mace to kill two Tang soldiers, Hu Yanjie turned back to look for Xia Shan's traces, but the moment he turned back and saw her, a sharp arrow had already leapt to his throat and protruded from the back of his neck......

"The ghost woman actually released a cold arrow!"

With a strong contempt for Xia Shan, Hu Yanjie lost all consciousness in his bones, fell off the horse, and was trampled into pulp!

At this point in the battle, the Shatuo people, who had lost their command, were already in a state of collapse, and had no intention of fighting, intending to flee......

An Zhongjing and An Chongzhang, father and son, returned to the tribe, gathered men and horses, and led more than 500 people to arrive, when the Tang army had already begun to clean up the battlefield.

They collect the heads, pick up the scattered armor and equipment......

An Zhongjing and An Chongzhang looked at each other, they only came and went for half an hour, and they never thought that in just half an hour, the Tang Army had already won the victory.

Thousands of horses' hooves galloped noisily and chaotically, and a thousand-man team rushed close in an instant.

An Zhongjing and An Chongzhang's expressions changed suddenly, and they hurriedly shouted: "We are the people of Gaochang, and when we learned that the horse thieves were coming, we came to help, and there is no malice, no malice." ”

In an instant, An Zhongjing felt a little regretful in his heart, it was not uncommon to kill good people and take risks, not to mention that they were still in a state of battle now......

In fact, the Shatuo people pretended to be horse thieves, and brought them too much hatred, and they didn't worry so much for a while.

And he also believes in the military discipline of the Longyou Army.

An Zhongjing had heard the slogan of "freezing to death without demolishing houses, starving to death without plundering", and he felt that as long as they successfully raided the rear of the thieves and helped the Tang army, the Tang army would not do anything to their own people.

It's just that they never thought that the war would end so quickly!

More than 1,000 cavalry came to the near place, and heard the other party's shouts, Xia Shan stopped the army's attack, came to the front of the formation, looked at An Zhongjing, An Chongzhang and his party, confirmed their identities, and said: "Go back, you are the people, and a comfortable life is." This is still left to our soldiers. I, Xia Shan, promise you today, I dare not say that there will be no thieves in this Xizhou in the future, but as long as there are horse thieves infested, there will be our army, one will kill one, and one will kill one pair, until the thieves are wiped out! ”

Hearing Xia Shan's domineering declaration, as well as the terrifying strength displayed by the Zhenxi Army.

More than 500 people who had suffered from the scourge of bandits cheered one by one.

An Chongzhang originally looked down on Tang Jun, but looking at Xia Shan and the Zhenxi Army, he suddenly had the idea of joining the army.

Xia Shan also noticed at this time that the mounts of these five hundred people turned out to be rare horses!
