Seeing that under the harassment of the whole day, Xiao Heda had entered a state of impatience and fatigue, and the Western Xia army, which had superior troops, was already very impatient, and the heavy armored cavalry that attacked this time really had a feeling of assault. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

So Gao Fangping raised the Son of Heaven sword and said: "The herald changes tactics, my wings will not shrink this time, but spread, accompany Xixia to do the movement of the two wings, maintain a safe distance, and never be surrounded." ”

"Shi Wengong." Gao Fangping said again, "This time I need your department to attack, but it's not really hard work." Cut the most suitable distance, face the Western Xia heavy cavalry to maneuver, if they don't want to fight, retreat in a roundabout way, then your troops don't need to force, quickly draw a circle, and cooperate with most of our light cavalry to retreat. If the Xixia heavy cavalry troops did not retreat, they would use the blessing of the horse speed of both sides to officially launch the first wave of crossbow sniping against the Xixia cavalry at a distance of 200 paces. And the tactics of my large army will be determined according to the combat effect of your unit! ”

Shi Wengong lifted the reins of his horse, and began to head towards the approaching Western Xia cold forging cavalry with the heavy cavalry of the Yongle Army.

Maybe Xiao Heda will suffer a loss in this first day of competition. I believe that his thinking is also half-solidified, and he always thinks that the Song Junshen Arm Crossbow is not as good as the Western Xia, but a mass-produced imitation. In fact, the Yongle Army, which was the first to follow Gao Fangping, as the highest bloodline army of the front division of the palace, happened to be equipped with the highest level of this era, the artwork of the Great Song Dynasty Army.

The power reduction version of the Divine Arm Crossbow is indeed only a pitiful hundred steps or so for the armor-breaking distance of the Western Xia Cold Forging Armored Cavalry, and that distance is almost face-to-face, and it is difficult for the fast cavalry to draw a roundabout, that is to say, whoever goes out to use the Divine Arm Crossbow to block the troops of the Western Xia Heavy Cavalry will face the impact of the opponent's heavy cavalry after shooting.

However, the ace of the Great Song Army's Divine Arm Crossbow has an armor-piercing distance of one hundred and thirty paces against cold-forged armor, and at the same time, it is necessary to calculate the "two-speed aura" of the horses on both sides head-on, so that the armor-piercing distance of the cold-forged cavalry will be increased to nearly two hundred steps in terms of technology.

With a distance of 200 paces, as the Yongle army, which had the strongest horse-control skills in the Song army, and caused them to panic due to the Western Xia heavy cavalry, it was enough to have a chance to stagger the Western Xia heavy cavalry. And Shi Wengong's department is also a heavy cavalry, as long as it is not a head-on collision with the plate cavalry, then Shi Wengong's ability to resist damage is very strong, as long as he does not lose his mobility, he will not die for the time being.

It's too late, it's too soon.

Xiao Heda didn't have time to make a faster order response, and he didn't expect that Gao Fangping really let the Yongle Army attack head-on this time.

In terms of Xiao Heda's skills in the Ma Army, it is obvious that Shi Wengong's department did attack, but it was really not a hard fight. So suspecting that something was weird, Xiao Heda hurriedly waved the command flag, trying to withdraw the tactics of the cold-forged armored cavalry.

But it was a little late.

At a distance of 200 paces, swishing -

Shi Wengong was on the running horse, and the powerful divine arm crossbow was released in an instant, and then without waiting for the screams of the group of "tanks", the Yongle army was divided into two groups as if splitting legs, quickly separated and drew circles from the two wings, and began to leave the battlefield with all their might.

Ahh

In the face of waves of divine arm crossbow snipers, the damage to the Western Xia cold forging cavalry is effectively expanding.

The heavy cavalry striker of Western Xia this time, after being shot directly by the rain of arrows, took away hundreds of people in one wave, whether it was a horse or a rider, and the cold forging armor was shot into a hedgehog, which was a comprehensive penetrating damage.

However, the biggest damage came from the head of the Sharp Knife Formation, after many heavy horses fell to the ground, forming a "horse rejection array" in the rear.

As a result, another piece was poured into the sparse uproar.

The shortcomings of the cavalry of the sharp knife formation are here, they are afraid of the direct shooting of the crossbow of the divine arm, in order to reduce the area of damage before the official engagement, only the sharp knife formation is used to assault, but this formation is easy to lead the area with points, killing the mobility of a whole group of heavy cavalry.

If you change to an ordinary cavalry and have insufficient skills in controlling horses, such a technical mistake is likely to cause more serious collateral damage.

Fortunately, Xiao Heda also withdrew the order in time, and then the White Horse Military Division deserved to be the White Horse Military Division, and could become their highest bloodline cold forging armored cavalry, which was of course the best Western Xia rider, although there was a moth on the head, which caused a lot of damage, but the main body was not really damaged, and the people behind it were controlled in time, and there was no real chaos.

On the entire battlefield that stretched for several miles, the main forces of the Song army and the Western Xia army were pulling out their horsepower to do a diffusion maneuver, no one wanted to be surrounded by anyone, and everyone was tentatively keeping a safe distance. Gao Fangping is weak force and does not dare to fight at will, but as long as the first wave of Gao Fangping's divine arm crossbow cluster is not released, it is the so-called "arrow on the string is deterrence", so Xiao Heda did not dare to really take the risk of assault on the first day. After all, the lesson of the Shilong Guanxi Shining United is too profound, and the 30,000-made Divine Arm Crossbow Cluster is too terrifying. If he is really concentrated by his high square, it will be a critical hit and residual blood!

In the "part" of the central theater of operations, only two heavy cavalry really clashed.

In the end, the Western Xia heavy cavalry was defeated but not chaotic, and the main force was still there, and only more than 200 horses were lost.

"Don't be stubborn, give orders, run and run, if you can't kill these rapists, just be a witty beauty and run away."

After Gao Fangping gave the order, Liu Fa and Xu Ning commanded with the Lingqi, and the Great Demon King himself had already escaped under the care of Sister Liang on the jade lion horse of Zhaoye.

The jade lion is really not covered, the legs are much longer than the traditional run, even if you bring Sister Liang and Gao Fangping, it is definitely the fastest run, and it is very awesome to escape. It really deserves to be a special horse for the Liao royal family.

was shot by Gao Fangping and ran away, Xiao Heda, who had never decided to pursue with an iron heart, sighed, so he had to copy and paste again and stop pursuing. Because, many people in the Western Xia army are still hungry, and the horses don't have enough time to eat forage......

In the north of Baichi City, the first day of the tug-of-war between Gao Fangping and the cavalry of the White Horse Military Division of the Western Xia ended like this, and the trump card of the Western Xia ace, the heavy cavalry lost more than 200 as the result.

Generally speaking, any previous time for Gao Fangping was a silver start, but this time with good luck, it can be regarded as a golden start.

Gao Fangping and all the Song Jun have let go of their mentality, even if they have confidence, they really grasped Xiao Heda's initial cautious mentality, and under Gao Fangping's invincible reputation as a demon king, Song Jun won the opportunity to warm up and run in with the "empty city mentality".

Earlier, everyone was a little worried, after all, they had to compete with the Western Xia ace White Horse Military Division, who was known for his cavalry, on this unfamiliar prairie. However, except for Shi Wengong's department, in fact, everyone was grinding their guns in battle, and the infantry turned into cavalry not long ago, and they belonged to the novices in the cavalry rather than the old drivers.

Last month, a handful of people would fall off their horses while running at full speed, let alone slash with knives, let alone shoot the Divine Arm Crossbow with both hands on their horses while maintaining their balance.

However, no one is born with these things, everything is the same as the early days of the battle from North 1 Beijing, only to fight and cherish......

In this way, in the situation of coming and going, Gao Fangping and Xiao Heda, with nearly 90,000 cavalry, have been tug-of-war in the prairie theater within a radius of 50 miles for six days.

During the period, they were relatively conservative, and there were almost no large and medium-sized encounters, but in the process of several times a day, there have been a few tentative skirmishes, and the two sides have won and lost each other. In fact, even if Gao Fangping was particularly cautious and obscene, it was still calculated that the Song army suffered more losses.

This is inevitable, in terms of cavalry technical skills, the gap is indeed not small, this is not to say that it can be easily leveled disadvantage. If it weren't for Gao Fangping's extremely treacherous bite of Xiao Heda's cautious mentality, coupled with the mass production version of the Divine Arm Crossbow Cluster Deterrence, he would really have to suffer a devastating loss before the long-lasting tactics took effect.

But the good thing is that although Xiao Heda's department has taken a lot of advantage, their morale is plummeting, and they, who are known as the elite of the world's invincible White Horse Army, have always been controlled by Gao Fangping at the strategic level and pulled in a state of fatigue.

As for Song Jun. Everyone followed Gao Fangping into the grassland, with a cavalry posture and the Western Xia ace white horse army Si tug-of-war, morale is not lacking, the mentality is rapidly letting go, the cavalry technology of grinding guns in battle, is training to adapt, infinitely shorten the gap with the Western Xia army, and the understanding of cavalry is deepening day by day.

This is normal, the rules of the universe dictate, it will be difficult for a master to make a hundred feet, it may take years of hard work, only a little to improve the skill of one level, but there is no "wind resistance" in the early stage of the novice, and the progress will be frustrated.

What's more, the Song army has the strategic weapon of compressing military rations, and it is one point to provide all-round nutrition, and the more important strategic significance lies in the fact that the Song army can have time to recuperate after simple eating, and can master the rhythm of "the Western Xia army does not eat well and sleep well".

For this kind of rhythm control, Gao Fangping is really invincible in the world, and he can always line up at the most suitable time, after the Song army has a moderate recuperation, and disturb Xiao Heda, who can't eat and sleep well.

The most helpless thing is that the Song army is also a cavalry, Xiao Heda really can't get rid of this ghost-like army, so as to make a systematic repair, he can only be followed by them day by day, and he can't fight a decisive battle, and he always carries out endless harassment.

Xiao Heda also discovered his strategic mistakes, and in the early days, he was really harmed by Gao Fangping's reputation and his own caution. So much so that there was no chance to seize the first few times and fight a decisive battle against the Song army, which had weak cavalry skills. Now with the deepening of the tug-of-war, the gap in riding skills between the Western Xia army and the Song army is rapidly narrowing, but strangely, the physical endurance of the Song army's war horses is endlessly surpassing the Western Xia army. And Xiao Heda couldn't find a specific reason at all.

Xiao Heda also discovered that Song Jun was a group of perverts, and they ate the same food as horses. However, now the Western Xia soldiers eat coarse grains, and as for the war horses, there is no horse feed to participate in feeding, so they can basically only let the horses eat grass on the spot.

It's okay to let the war horse eat grass in peacetime, and it is even more beneficial to the long life of the war horse. But not in wartime, it was necessary to participate in the feeding of horse feed, which was mainly based on beans. If they only eat grass, the war horse needs too much time to gnaw grass, and eats a full stomach of grass that oppresses the stomach and makes it inconvenient to run, but it is not enough nutrients.

Then one of the most lethal problems of eating forage is time, and the problem of the lack of concentration of forage on the grass.

Horses are not cats and dogs, and it is never enough to eat up the grass around them, so you need to move and eat the grass in other places, which is of course not a problem for hundreds of war horses, but it is a fatal problem for more than 50,000 war horses in Xiao Heda's department. This requires the rider to spread out with the horse to a certain extent to eat the forage.

Therefore, from a technical point of view, the Western Xia army has spent at least five times more time solving stomach problems than the Song army in the past six days. The fatal thing is that even the riders are not allowed to rest, because they have to wait for the horses to eat. Otherwise, Gao Fangping harassed in a formation, separated the rider and the war horse, and if he didn't have time to get on the horse and maneuver, it would definitely be a dead end.

However, the Song army can use this squeezed time to carry out technical cultivation, which is allowing the Song army to slowly get out of the state of fatigue.

Yes, since the tug-of-war has been going on for six days, Xiao Heda has also noticed these situations, but he can't find the reason.
