Chief Khalid didn't expect the governor to directly hand over this task to him, and secretly said in his heart, this guy is really shameless, but he can't shirk it, so he had to discuss with the old patriarch, he doesn't have this ability, it doesn't mean that the Khalid family has no capable people.

After Chief Khalid returned to his residence, he immediately went to the old patriarch to report back to him, and asked the old patriarch for advice about his past and the fact that he was hacked by the governor. People often say that there is an old man in the family who has a treasure, and this is indeed the case, the old patriarch himself does not know how to use cavalry to fight, but he has a lot of knowledge? He told Chief Khalid that since the governor had given you the right, you could also go to the barracks and give the task to the cavalry. Of course, it would be better if you could give them a little idea, and if you succeed this time, you will definitely become the Grand Governor, and the future is limitless, think carefully about whether there is a good way.

Chief Khalid thought about the old patriarch's words very reasonable, and he could also push this task to the cavalry troops, but none of them had ever seen this kind of warfare, so they had to go and explain it to them themselves.

Which army was the strongest in the Ottoman Empire? It was a unit that had been in the steppes of Eastern Europe and had been fighting against the Russian Empire for a long time, and it was their cavalry that had the most, Chief Khalid went to the cavalry barracks with a not very confident idea, even if it was a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

The command of the cavalry unit, Chief Khalid handed over the governor's order to the corps commander, and the corps commander looked at the governor's order in a daze, he had also heard that the army of the Ming Empire had used this tactic, but he had not seen how this kind of army was trained. However, he did not shirk like the governor, but asked Chief Khalid how he came up with this tactic, and Chief Khalid told the commander of the legion what happened, and swore that he had personally seen the general of the Fengyang Kingdom do just that during the exercise. The commander of the cavalry corps called the captain of one of his most experienced units, and asked Chief Khalid to discuss with them the possibility of this method of warfare, to see if it could be done, and no one was sure about the new method of warfare.

There are three main types of cavalry in the Ottoman Empire, the first is the central cavalry, which they call "Kapikuru Valilieri", referred to as the Kapikuru cavalry, which belongs to the central cavalry and is subordinate to the king; The second is the lord cavalry, they are called "Timari Sipashi" for short, the Sipashi cavalry, which is the main cavalry unit of the Ottoman Empire, they are the cavalry of the noble lords, and their status is roughly equivalent to that of the knights of European countries. The central government does not pay them salaries, but allocates land to them, and they have the right to collect taxes on the inhabitants of that land; The third was the provincial cavalry, known as the "Ajin", which was the Empire's fast light cavalry unit.

The cavalry corps commander was found by the cavalry troops of the Crimean Khanate, who were the last remnants of the elite of the Crimean Khanate, currently with just over 5,000 soldiers, and the captain was I*Gle. I*Gray is a member of the royal family of the Crimean Khan, because the Sipaxi cavalry led by him has been following the main cavalry to fight, fighting for fiefs and interests for the Crimean Khanate, so the Crimean Khanate was not hit hard when it was destroyed by the Tsarist Russian Empire, but because the Crimean Khanate was destroyed, they lost their largest source of economy and were relatively poorly equipped, but this time the military aid of the Ming Empire restored their vitality and gave him the confidence to rebuild glory.

After listening carefully to Chief Khalid's explanation, I*Gelle believed that this method of warfare was very powerful, and somewhat unexpected, and could completely break the current stalemate, and he was very willing to make an attempt to open up the situation for the Ottoman Empire.

In fact, I*Gle is not sure, but he clearly sees the current situation of his tribe, this is their best chance to revivenation, and these high-level equipment are provided by the Ottoman Empire for free, so that if this mission is successfully completed, his tribe can be like a phoenix Nirvana, and get a chance to be reborn, why not give it a go.

So Chief Khalid and I-Glai got together, and the two of them went to train such a cavalry unit to break through the predicament. I*Glai chose five hundred horses from four to five years old, these horses have been very familiar with the battlefield environment after many battles, they will not riot on the battlefield because of unexpected circumstances, and I*Glai's own horse is the king of this herd, he is ready to personally lead the team to charge, this is the best and last chance, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.

Chief Khalid told him about the training process he had seen, and after careful consideration, he thought that the only thing that the horses had difficulty adapting to was the sound of explosions when the mortars were fired, and that the solution to this problem was to plug the horses' ears with cotton cloths to minimize the sound heard by the horses, and as for the use of mortars on horses, there was no problem for them who had been playing on horseback since childhood.

Get acquainted with the process of firing from miniature mortars, the most alien thing to them and the most feared weapon. It's very simple, this miniature mortar is a fool's weapon, load the bottom medicine, stuff the shell directly from the mouth of the barrel down, the target does not need to aim at all, just shoot directly into the crowd of the other party, the only thing you need to pay attention to is not to get the program wrong, if you put the shell first, this trot will be wasted, and in a hurry on the battlefield, recruits are prone to make such mistakes.

After only three days of familiarization, these soldiers were familiar with this small cannon. Of course, their launch speed is still very slow, at least worse than that of the Ming soldiers, but as a surprise raid, it can be used completely. Time waits for no one, and the Habsburg armies are gathering more and more, and they must be defeated as soon as possible.

In addition to the miniature mortar cavalry raid of I*Glae, as a task to open the situation and tear the breakthrough apart, if the troops are disjointed and the troops behind cannot keep up, the cavalry team of only five hundred people will soon be surrounded by the Habsburg army that reacts, and the cavalry that has lost its speed is a dish, and the commander of the cavalry corps has made all the cavalry obey the command, and only the I*gray troops are the guideline, and they will follow the actions of the I*gray troops at any time.

The governor of the Ottoman army was overjoyed to hear this good news, and in the last few days he had finally received the good news that the army would absolutely and fully cooperate with the battle plan drawn up by Chief Khalid and I-Gele, and strive to bring the battle of Vienna to an end at once.

Historically, the decline of the Ottoman Empire began here, but that was decades later, but the Ottoman Empire had been repeatedly defeated by the Habsburg army before, and they had great concerns in their hearts, for example, in this battle, before they could start attacking Vienna, a large number of Habsburg reinforcements arrived, and even the governor in charge of this command was afraid in their hearts.

The new tactics were carefully crafted by Sheikh Khalid and I-Gle, and every movement of the Ottoman army was planned to the exact location and timing. Later generations often say that details determine success or failure, and in the case of less to more, the details are particularly important. Chief Khalid and I-Glae stressed the rigor of the plan to the Governor several times, demanding that the troops must be in complete lockstep and not make changes without permission, even if the difficulties were greater.

The eastern walls of Vienna are very strong, and it is also the focus of the city of Vienna's defense, because on the west side is the Danube, a natural moat, in order to prevent the Ottoman army from breaking through, the passing bridge has long been destroyed, the north side is a vast steppe, and the northwest side is the main force of the Habsburg army, most of the troops are stationed there, including the most elite Bavarian regiment and the Polish cavalry. It is a bit strange that the Polish Legion entered the war independently, while Lithuania of the United Kingdom ignored the campaign.

The strategy formulated by Sheikh Khalid and I*Glay was to defend the south and attack in the north, the breakthrough point was placed in the northeast, and the main infantry was due east, they were responsible for attacking the city wall, which seemed to be the main force, but in fact it was a feint, the purpose was to involve the entire front, so that the Habsburg coalition army would take the initiative to attack them, and then Sheikh Khalid and I*glet would seek an opportunity to break through, and the cavalry corps would expand the results of the battle and achieve the purpose of the campaign.
