Chapter 781: The First Wave of Confrontation (2)
There are not many ways for infantry to fight against cavalry, and it is almost impossible to defeat cavalry, which is why Lingxi is surprised to find that Black Domain City dispatched 8,000 infantry. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the infantry blocks the cavalry's attack, can it catch up with the four-legged cavalry with two legs, so the cavalry against the infantry, as long as the cavalry general does not seek death by himself, it is easy to fight or retreat, and Yu Yu naturally thinks so.
However, the rejection of horses in Black Domain City has a certain deterrent effect on the cavalry's attack.
A log four or five meters long, with two more than two meters long every half a meter, and the two sharpened hardwoods are crisscrossed and nailed together, weighing two or three hundred catties, placed in front of the infantry phalanx, which can stop the cavalry's charging speed, which is equivalent to putting on a piece of barbed armor for the infantry phalanx, and it is naturally impossible for the opponent to do this, otherwise the cavalry's charge is simply a joke.
The people of the Black Domain have just begun to arrange the horse rejection pile, and the western part of the ridge is not blind, how can they not see it, the first horse rejection pile has not been placed properly, and Yu Yu has already led the troops to kill it.
If you want to deal with the horse rejection pile in front of the infantry phalanx, there are usually two ways, one is to fill it with human life, take advantage of the fact that the opponent's horse rejection pile has not been fully set, use the speed of the war horse to rush directly towards the horse rejection pile, and use the huge impact of the war horse to destroy the horse rejection pile, the advantage of this is that it is fast and effective, and it is also a shock to the enemy's heart while dying on the side, and does not give the other party any time to prepare, but this also has a fatal drawback, that is, who will use their own life to break a bloody road for the cavalry behind them?
The first method is only a fierce man and a hero, who will give such an order if he regards human life as a mustard, and it is also a very high requirement for the quality of the soldiers, once someone questions such an order, the whole army will be discouraged, and usually no one dares to do so until the moment of life and death.
The second method is the simplest, and almost every steppe cavalry does, which is to let the cavalry get close to the horse rejection stake, and then throw out the rope in his hand to drag the horse rejection stake away from the infantry phalanx.
Of course, it is impossible for the opposing infantry to turn a blind eye and let the opposing cavalry drag away their defensive horse rejection stakes, and a fierce battle between the two sides is inevitable, so it is a competition to see who has more means and stronger attack power.
Almost every Murwei person is an excellent cavalryman, and there is no need for someone to command it at all, and the cavalry under Yu Yu is lined up in a neat attack formation, and the killing generals are overwhelming.
Before he was within a hundred paces of the Black Infantry phalanx, he hid his body behind his horse to prevent the opposing infantry from firing arrows.
The bows and arrows used by the infantry are usually stronger than the bows and arrows in the hands of the cavalry, and the shooting distance is naturally farther than the cavalry, which is not to say that the cavalry cannot use the strong bow and crossbow, but the limitations of the cavalry itself, if you want to use the strong bow and crossbow, not only will the quality of the cavalry be higher, but also the requirements for the war horse are more stringent, there are very few cavalry that can achieve such conditions, it is the elite of the elite, obviously the cavalry under Yu Yu does not have such quality.
The cavalry under Yu Yu carefully guarded against the arrows that the Black Domain people might shoot, and rushed to within a hundred steps of the Black Domain infantry phalanx, and found that there was no movement in the opponent's large array, and they were puzzled, but it was too late to think about it, the cavalry in the western part of the ridge at the front reflexively sat on the war horse, and the soft bow that had been prepared in their hands shot out, and thousands of wolf tooth arrows rose into the air, and they saw that the opposing infantry had already raised the shield in their hands to resist, most of the arrows were blocked by the huge shield, and only a few arrows passed through the gap between the shields. Fell into the middle of the infantry.
The cavalry in front of the western part of the ridge did not rush to the horse rejection pile, and of course Yu Yu would not give such an order, so that his men would die in vain.
After shooting a round of arrows, the cavalry in the western part of the ridge drew a perfect arc in front of the infantry array, and galloped parallel to the infantry formation, shooting the arrows in their hands while galloping, not giving the infantry the possibility of returning fire at all, creating an opportunity for the cavalry behind them to drag away the horse rejection stake.
In the infantry phalanx of Black Domain.
Zhen Sixteen looked at the cavalry in the western part of the ridge who was getting closer and closer with excitement on his face, and his clenched fists were too excited, and his fingernails were deeply embedded in the flesh without realizing it.
Zhen Shibai on the side was also eager to try, and the fat on his face twitched involuntarily, as if he had seen a peerless beauty, his eyes were full of fire, and his mouth kept muttering something.
"It's coming! Come on! Victory is ahead, don't be afraid of ......, I will treat you well. ”
"Calm down! Be sure to calm down! ”
Zhen Sixteen pinched himself fiercely, the severe pain made him feel that he was not dreaming, he was shouting in his heart, he finally waited for this day, he was always beaten passively before, and today he can finally have a fight with the people of Murowei.
From the time Zhen Er was attacked in the Wuluo Protectorate, a year and four months have passed since today, and almost every day is spent in trembling, just like the voles on the grassland hiding and not daring to see people, even if they build a strong city, they are worried about being discovered by other Murowei people, every time it is the Murowei people who attack the Black Domain City, and very few Black Domain Cities take the initiative to fight head-on with tribes of the same strength, this situation makes people too aggrieved and too cowardly!
Like a girl.,It's really not good to be blocked at the door of the enemy all the time.,I didn't have such strength before.,Knocking out your teeth can only be swallowed in your stomach.。
However, after more than a year of development, the population of Black Domain City has exceeded 60,000, and the regular army has exceeded 6,000. After being hit by the Mugyu last year, the population of Lingxi has dropped sharply from more than 100,000 to less than 70,000, and the elite of them have suffered heavy losses.
On the question of whether or not to take the initiative to attack, the significance of the top and bottom of the Black Domain City is surprisingly unified, not only to attack in a sortie, but also to strike fiercely, and completely kill and cripple the western part of Lingxi.
As long as it can defeat the western part of the ridge, Black Domain City can truly become a big force in Murwei, and no one can stop the development of Black Domain City.
It is no exaggeration to say that this war is a war that will determine the future of Black Domain City, and it is a war that will determine the life and death of Black Domain City.
According to the pre-war deduction, it is not difficult for Black Domain City to defeat the western part of the Ridge, but the difficult thing is how to completely erase the western part of the Ridge from the map of Murowei, integrate the forces in the western part of the Ridge, and strengthen the Black Domain City. If the western part of the ridge is allowed to escape, not only will it not have the slightest benefit to the Black Domain City, but the weakened western part of the ridge is likely to become the nourishment for the growth of other tribes, which is a result that the Black Domain City never wants to see.
