Hundreds of bare-headed or skin-wearing people stared at Liu Ji and them, all looking at the horses under the armor they were wearing with greedy eyes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Ji's face sank and said, "It seems that it can't be good!" ”

"Hell if you're good!" Zhang Cai was angry, "Look at these wild people, look at our eyes are glowing green, our outfit is a treasure in their eyes." There are many of them, and we have come from afar, and it is a little unreasonable for them not to kill people and rob money. ”

"The black water is especially strong, and every time it is brave, it is always a problem for its neighbors. It seems that what the people of Su Mo Tatar said is true! Yu Feng sighed.

The people on the opposite side were holding bows and arrows and aimed at Liu Ji and them, among which there were more than 30 cavalrymen, who killed the expedition team and robbed them of their finances if they didn't agree with each other.

The expedition was in full array, and the bows and crossbows were all held in their hands with arrows.

Both sides are staring at each other tightly, as long as there is a slight change in the words, I am afraid it will be a rain of arrows.

"Young leader, the horses these outsiders ride are really tall and handsome, and the clothes and armor they wear are shining, they must be iron armor, these people are really rich."

The young man in the middle of the cavalry did not react to the exclamation of his subordinates, but his hot eyes betrayed him, especially the armor of the leader of the other party, and the young man really wanted to snatch it immediately.

"Young leader, let's go up, there are more than a hundred of them."

"Although there are only more than a hundred of these outsiders, they are all cavalry and well-equipped, let's wait for help to arrive, and it's not too late to do it!"

The subordinates around the young man were all grinding their fists and preparing to make a big move, constantly instigating their young leader to give orders.

For the Black Water Spirits, they only believe that the strong are respected, and the weak have no right to live. In their eyes, the expedition team suddenly appeared, the number is not large and rich, and it is really sorry for themselves not to rob it.

"Young leader, Mo Shidong and Na Er, they each took more than a hundred people to go around the left and right flanks of these outsiders, and they can copy their back roads at any time." Someone came to report.

"The young leader will do it, snatch the armor of their leader and give it to the leader, and the leader will definitely praise the young leader for his determination and ability to take on great responsibilities."

The sentry horse galloped over: "Captain, the people of the Devil have been found in the jungle on the left and right wings, and the number of them is more than a hundred!" ”

"These people are confronting us, and they are waiting for reinforcements to surround us."

Zhang Cai said hatefully: "Eryang, let's do it." ”

"If this battle is fought, how will we explore in the future in the Black Water Piercing? Is it to kill all the way? Yu Feng said distressedly.

Liu Ji said in a deep voice: "There are more than a dozen of the Black Water Turtles, and the people we killed today are only one of them. ”

"The other party is ready to do it, tell the brother to prepare, and follow me to kill!"

"No!"

With Liu Ji's order, more than 100 people drew the bowstring, as long as the captain gave an order, they could immediately rain arrows at each other, and then charge their horses.

The Tang army fought, first intimidating the opponent with an arrow array, then blocking the opponent's cavalry offensive with heavy infantry, and outflanking the enemy with cavalry on both flanks.

In order to maintain the speed of action, the three-way expedition team in the north was also to guard against a surprise attack by the local natives. In addition to the 300 guards who were carefully selected, the surveying and mapping team personnel were also trained in horseback archery, and could be an ordinary cavalry rather than a weak literati.

Although it is in the home field of the Tatar people, the expedition team has an advantage in terms of equipment and horses, and the disadvantage is nothing more than the number of people.

The 113 members of the expedition were all cavalry, and although there were hundreds of people, there were only about 30 cavalrymen, which was far smaller than the tall Qinghai skull equipped by the expedition.

The war horses under the seat gave a lot of confidence to the expedition soldiers, whether it was explosive or impactful, the Qinghai skulls under the seat were by no means comparable to the ponies that the group of people rode were not much bigger than dogs.

The area where the two sides faced each other was a flat and open network of rivers, which was most suitable for cavalry combat, and the reinforcements of the Tatars in the jungle on both flanks were two or three miles away from the battlefield. This gave Liu Ji the confidence to eliminate the other party before their reinforcements came up.

The young man finally couldn't help it, thinking that the superior side had eaten the other side, and at the instigation of his greedy subordinates, hundreds of people charged Liu Ji and them with an order.

Since the bows and arrows in the hands of the Tatars could not reach the expedition, they decided to rush forward for a distance and shoot again.

But Liu Ji was not so kind to let them rush a distance safely, and under the heavy drink, the one hundred and thirteen bows and crossbows in the hands of the expedition team fired a salvo at the rushing indigo.

In terms of the range of bows and crossbows, there is no one in the world who can compare with the Tang Dynasty bows and crossbows.

After the salvo, without looking at the result, Liu Ji immediately pulled out his horizontal knife and pointed forward, "Kill!" ”

"Kill ......"

More than 100 horsemen of the expedition team suddenly killed, because there were horseshoes on the horses' hooves, and the sound of more than 100 horsemen crashing was deafening.

Before the expedition set off, Li Yu considered that there might be a conflict with the natives, so the expedition team brought armor.

More than 100 people spread out to form an oncoming black line, and the soldiers wearing black armor were shining with metallic luster under the sunlight, which was shocking.

"Ah......h

The Tata, who had made up his mind to run in and shoot the other party, only heard a whooshing sound, and a rain of arrows fell into the air, and dozens of people were shot and fell to their knees screaming.

Seeing that these outsiders had been killed, the uninjured people hurriedly bent their bows and arrows to fight back.

However, the arrowheads in their hands are all bone, and only a few people in the tribe have iron arrowheads.

Everyone in the expedition team was wearing iron armor, although not everyone was bright light armor, but a fish scale armor in each hand was not something that these people with bone arrows could shoot through.

Moreover, Li Yu's army, whether it was a general or a soldier, wore a black tasseled flat hat helmet (commonly known as a pot lid helmet, a dome, with a wide brim; It is similar to the hat-shaped helmet of the Song army hundreds of years later, just like the helmet of the Song army in the TV series Yue Feili, except that the helmet of Li Yu's army is black), which can effectively block the thrown arrows and sunlight from shining on the eyes.

The clanging sound of arrows fired by the Arrows on the armor of the expedition, coupled with the hat-shaped helmets worn by the expedition team and the fish scale guards that hung down to the shoulders to protect the neck, it was difficult for the archers to hurt the expedition soldiers unless they shot them in the face.

The distance of a few hundred meters is only a few tens of seconds for Qinghai Cong, who is good at speed, and it suddenly exposes the step to ride, which can not be made up for by the numerical advantage.

What's more, the Black Water Tatar people have never experienced a decent battle formation at all, and they have no infantry experience in fighting against cavalry, and cavalry with infantry.

The Heishui Taya lives deep in the cold north, and there is no so-called civilized country around it, so it is naturally difficult to train excellent military combat ideas when dealing with the tribes that belong to the same Tata in peacetime.

In addition, it is a fishing and hunting people, located in the mountains and mountains, unlike the nomadic people who have a large number of horses, a large tribe of thousands of people can have hundreds of horses is very powerful.

The fishing and hunting peoples have never had an advantage in mounted archery, and their military superiority is to defeat each other with foot shooting and fearlessness to death.

Hundreds of infantrymen were attacked by Liu Ji and beheaded more than 100 levels, but the people did not collapse, and the death of their companions instead sent them to the beast to fight with the expedition.
