Chapter 462: Cavalry? Heavy cavalry!
Of course, no one thinks there is anything wrong with this way of costing cavalry, after all, on the battlefield, the first opportunity and suppressive force have a very great effect on a war.
These hundreds of thousands of cavalry of the Chu State, if they are placed on other battlefields, will definitely play a very big role, and even win a key war for the Chu State.
In today's world, only Chu, Ruan, and Cang can have such national strength to form and maintain cavalry of this scale.
It's a pity that it put its first battle into the battlefield with Cangguo.
This cavalry is destined to shock the whole world.
It's just that because of the timing of the problem, what shocked the world could only be defeat.
With the 130,000 cavalry entering the battlefield, the entire Chu army was boiling.
Scrappy!
Cavalry, there are also cavalry in the Chu State!
This time, we will definitely win!
The fighting spirit of the Chu army was high, and the soldiers desperately moved forward to kill, and under the command of the war drums in the rear, a wide road was opened in the middle to facilitate the advance of the cavalry in the rear.
Wan Xi's face flushed.
He was excited.
The situation is all under his control!
The Chu army is finally not the army that trembles when it sees the cavalry of Cangguo.
Finally, after this day, the state of Chu will truly ascend to the position of the first power.
Whether it's territory, or population, or army.
Chu State, it's going to win!
"Hahaha! The great thing has been accomplished, and it has finally lived up to His Majesty's trust. Wan Xi laughed heartily.
The surrounding generals are also overjoyed, and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.
After defeating the Cang army, you can take all the land of Shao, and Chu can capture a key territory.
Moreover, after defeating the Cang State, it will be a great benefit for both the Chu State and them, or the family behind them.
Adding an official to a knighthood is already an ironclad thing.
"Thanks to the general's proper arrangement, this time I want to let the Cangguo taste failure."
"The Cangjun is too arrogant, and the arrogant soldiers will be defeated."
"Hehe, just 200,000 people, just want to block my 700,000 army, it seems that Cangguo has been too carried away these years."
"The last general is a little regretful, if Cangguo sends an extra 100,000 troops over this time, then our merits will be even greater."
Some people are happy, some are regretful, and some people have contempt for the Cang army.
Hold the cards in one hand.
As he spoke, all the generals once again turned their attention to the battlefield.
At present, the 130,000 cavalry of the Chu State has already reached the front of the battle, and they will immediately be able to rush into the army and wantonly slaughter the Cang army.
"Hey, that's not right."
At this time, a general suddenly shouted, pointed to both sides of the battlefield, and said: "You see, the cavalry of our army has been pressed, such a large formation, the 30,000 Qilin army must have seen it, but why did they not come to the support of the Chinese army?" ”
"That's right, it stands to reason that the experience of the Cangguo cavalry should be richer than that of our army, at this time, we must step forward to block and confront, how can we continue to fight with the foot soldiers? Could it be that he wanted to kill the Chinese army of the Chu army with 30,000 cavalry? ”
Dream!
The people around Wan Xi are all senior generals of the Chu army, of course, they will not be stupid to think that the cavalry of Cangguo will be so naïve, it is impossible for them to not even have this experience in fighting.
"Something is wrong, could it be that Cangjun has some plan?"
"If you look closely, after the cavalry of our army appeared, the soldiers of the Cang army did not mess up the formation, which is a bit incredible."
"That's right, before the last general, I thought that the Cangjun army was strictly disciplined, orderly, and not chaotic, but now it seems that something is indeed wrong."
"I heard that the person in command on the opposite side is Qu Yong, the first general of the Blue Dragon Legion, and I have long heard that this person is cautious in his use of troops and is good at commanding large battle formations, so he shouldn't be so ......."
"The enemy's Chinese army does not seem to be fully mobilized, and there are some cavalry, but unfortunately the distance is too far to see clearly."
You and I say a word, and everyone has expressed their opinions.
Wan Xi's brows furrowed one after another.
He really wanted the cavalry to slow down, so that they didn't have to rush into the Cang army, and they could just fight directly at the junction of the two armies.
Although the results will be greatly reduced, it will be much safer.
However, not everything can be solved with a general.
The charge of more than 100,000 cavalry is the first time on the real battlefield, just like a wild horse that has escaped from the leash, not that it can be contained if it is contained.
The uncoordinated speed of the whole army could easily lead to a catastrophic stampede.
"Look! The Cang army has another cavalry dispatch!"
"Really."
"No, it's not like a normal cavalryman."
Several Chu generals who were looking from a high place were all shocked in their hearts.
This scene is kind of like.
Didn't you defeat the Jin army like this at the beginning?
In those books published by Cangguo, isn't there often such a counterattack?
Won't it ...... It's bad again, right?
Not to mention the Chu generals, even the Chu cavalry who rushed in front felt that something was wrong.
Originally, he was about to rush to the main formation of the Cang army, and then chase and kill in all directions like a-stirring stick, and this battle could be over.
The first time I tried the taste of slaughter, I was still a little nervous and a little expectant.
However, I didn't expect that before I really rushed into the enemy's main formation, the mutation was bulging.
Those who rushed up against them were also cavalrymen.
However, it is not the same as the cavalry in the cognition.
Armor, shields, spears......
Compared with the equipment on his body, the gap is not half a star.
I felt that my body was a beggar's tattered rags, and the other party's body was a luxurious silk satin.
There is no comparison!
Subconsciously, the cavalry of the Chu State who rushed to the front wanted to hold on to the reins, but they quickly woke up and gave up.
Rush forward.
At the same time, the broadsword in his hand was raised.
It is worth mentioning that due to the differences in steel technology and smelting, the cavalry of the Chu State was not equipped with the most suitable scimitar for the cavalry, but the blacksmiths of the Chu State, who forged wide knives one by one.
Compared with the scimitar, it is more bulky, and in terms of toughness and sharpness, it cannot be compared.
As for the hand crossbow, due to cost and craftsmanship, among the 130,000 cavalry of the Chu State, not much was equipped, and most of them used bows and arrows.
Under the pressure of the alternative cavalry on the opposite side, many people forgot to bend their bows and arrows, which is equivalent to directly giving up this medium-range weapon.
In the main formation of the Cangshao coalition army, Qu Yong's heart was a little nervous.
Although he has a lot of confidence in the heavy cavalry, this is the first time it has been put into use, and it is inevitable that he will be a little uncertain.
In fact, his worries were completely unnecessary.
There is only one threat to the heavy cavalry attacking the infantry phalanx, and that is that when the heavy cavalry is limited by the dense enemy infantry, the heavy cavalry itself has little ability to counterattack.
Heavy cavalry is generally not allowed to kill directly into the enemy's main formation.
Today, the embarrassment of the heavy cavalry happened to be perfectly missed by the Chu army, who knew nothing.
The only heavy cavalry had to face was the light cavalry.
In front of the light cavalry, the heavy cavalry was like an iron man, not afraid of slashing and bowing at all.
A combat power that is armed even with eyes, in a rapidly changing battlefield, what opponent is there?
By surprise, there is no problem at all with one enemy and ten.
Finally, the two cavalry rushed together.
Heavy cavalry assault light infantry...... Hehe......
Qu Yong turned around silently.
Because, it will be a massacre.
This kind of bloody scene is better to see less.
After all, he was a man who aspired to be a Confucian general.
