Chapter 431: Tips
The knights were eating and resting, but Zhao Yun jumped onto a big tree on the top of Niulan Mountain and looked in the direction of Dianchi City.
Niulan Mountain is only more than 30 miles away from Dianchi City, standing on the big tree on the top of the mountain, Zhao Yun can see the gunpowder smoke rising near Dianchi City, and can also see countless "ants", which are surrounding Dianchi City.
Naturally, Zhao Yun also saw that a team of "ants" was rushing towards Niulan Mountain.
This is also the reason why Zhao Yun gave the rest order.
The barbarians are about to engage in battle, and the cavalry who have traveled a long distance must have a good rest before they have the energy and physical strength to fight!
Suddenly, Zhao Zilong seemed to think of something, reached out and took it out in his arms, but took out a bag.
This is the bag that the military advisor gave him before leaving. Zhao Yun still remembered that the military advisor told him that before the first battle of the barbarian soldiers, he could open the bag, which contained a way to deal with the barbarian cavalry!
Zhao Yun opened the bag and soon realized.
It turned out that the military division had long known that the barbarian cavalry was mostly tiger cavalry, wolf cavalry and elephant cavalry.
This kind of beast cavalry is actually not very powerful.
Its only strength is that those fierce beasts that are mounts can naturally suppress the war horses of the Central Plains cavalry.
Therefore, when the Han cavalry encounters the cavalry of the barbarians, many times before the battle, the war horses will be frightened and scattered by the fierce beast mounts of the barbarians. Even if they can barely restrain the war horses, but in the face of fierce beasts such as tigers, leopards and elephants, most of the war horses will cringe, so it is good that the knights can exert half of their combat power.
In the tips, the military advisor has already given a way to deal with it.
That is, the ears of the deaf war horse!
As the old saying goes: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
This sentence also tells us that before the beasts knew the power of the tiger, they were actually not very afraid of the tiger.
Therefore, when the war horses see the tiger, their first impression is not that they are afraid, and even the more powerful war horses will be eager to challenge the tiger.
It's just that when the tiger roars, no matter how good the war horse is, it has to flee.
The milk tiger roars in the forest, and the beasts are terrified.
Tiger roar, this is the innate fear in the depths of the soul of a hundred beasts.
When the beasts see a tiger, their first impression is not that they are afraid. However, when the tiger roars in the mountains and forests, even if the beasts do not see the tiger, they will flee because of their innate fear!
Therefore, if the war horse can't hear the tiger's roar, it will naturally not be afraid, and it will not run away.
In the same way, if the war horse can't hear the howl of the wolf and the chirping of the elephant, it will naturally not be afraid of the elephant and the wolf!
……
After reading the tips, Zhao Zilong was a little hesitant.
After the war horse was pierced in both ears, when facing the tiger and the elephant again, would he be afraid, would he run away, Zhao Zilong was not worried. Since the military advisor specifically told him to do this in his bag, it is feasible to think of this method.
The only thing Zhao Zilong hesitated about was that the war horse that pierced his ears was basically scrapped after this battle.
You know, this is not one or two war horses that are deaf, but five thousand war horses that are deaf at once!
After pondering for a long time, seeing that the barbarian cavalry was about to come, Zhao Zilong no longer hesitated.
"Order, pick five thousand war horses and deaf them in both ears!"
After jumping off the tree and returning to the valley, Zhao Zilong gave orders to the knights.
In an instant, the knights were a little commotional.
The military order issued by the general, the soldiers need to act according to the order, which is good, but General Zhao issued the military order this time, and none of the knights could understand it, so that the knights did not implement this military order in the first place.
"Why do you want to pierce the ears of a deaf war horse?" One of the lieutenants asked.
Looking at the puzzled eyes of the soldiers, Zhao Zilong explained with a wry smile: "What we need to face is the cavalry of the barbarians!" ”
"The cavalry of the barbarians, whose mounts are beasts of prey such as tigers, wolves, and elephants. Our war horses have not yet started a war against such fierce beasts, and we are afraid that they will all flee in the wilderness. Only by piercing the ears of the deaf war horse, when we face the fierce beast cavalry of the barbarians, our war horse will not panic and be afraid. This is also the only way for the military advisor to hand over to this general! ”
Then, Zhao Yun was a little glad and said, "Fortunately, we are all one person and two horses on this trip." ”
At this time, Zhao Zilong actually secretly thought in his heart that the military advisor was really clever.
No, the military advisor not only gave him a clever plan, so that Zhao Zilong knew how to deal with the barbarian cavalry, and even specially equipped him Zhao Zilong with one man and two horses, lest their vanguard become a knight without a mount after this battle!
Listening to Zhao Zilong's explanation, the knights suddenly realized.
It turns out that their current opponents, the Southern Barbarians, have mounts that are fierce beasts or something!
If they hadn't known in advance, wouldn't they have been terrible when they encountered the barbarian cavalry later?
At this time, the knights were also glad in their hearts.
……
Soon, the five thousand war horses specially selected were all deaf in both ears.
Zhao Zilong also picked a mount and stabbed his ears.
His mount was originally a bloody horse, and it would be a pity for such a precious mount to stab his ears in both ears just for a battle. Therefore, the mount that Zhao Zilong is choosing now is just an ordinary war horse.
When the war horse was pierced in both ears, it was naturally a little at a loss, and even several war horses went crazy.
Fortunately, these horses were all trained mounts, and the knights were slightly pacified, and there was no major commotion on the horses; When the knights stepped on their horses, the restless horses fell silent.
At this time, the two-hour rest period had passed, and the sentinel who had gone out to investigate had returned.
"Report, General, a barbarian cavalry is rushing towards our army, and its number is about 20,000!"
The sentry turned over and dismounted, and reported the news of the investigation to Zhao Zilong.
To be honest, the Sentinel's legs were still shaking. When he was investigating just now, he saw the barbarian cavalry from a distance, and the sentry felt incredulous, and then he was almost stunned by the more than ten behemoths in the barbarian rear team.
The roar of the tiger, the howl of the wolf, and the roar of the elephant almost scared the sentinel!
Finally, the sentry remembered his duties, silently recited "I'm not afraid to shoot" in his heart, encouraged himself, and hurried back to report the news. In fact, the sentry's mount was even more unbearable than his own, and he almost ran away.
Zhao Zilong bowed his head, and after letting the sentry go down to rest, he ordered: "All of them, leave a team of knights to guard the mounts in the valley, and the other soldiers will go to the intersection with the general and line up to meet the enemy!" ”
The cavalry, naturally, will line up and then charge head-on! Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find? Amway One or search for Hot/Degree/Net/Article "Remember to remove "/"Otherwise you won't be able to search", here is a young lady to help you find books and accompany you to chat!
