Chapter 140: This Is a Cavalry......
Xiang Ji was not ready to shoot at this moment, he was a sharp arrow that had already left the string and could never turn back, but the feeling of being attacked on his back was more exciting than worried for a conceited and belligerent fellow - he believed that his companions behind him would definitely be able to withstand it, and he only hoped that he would fight again when he came back.
Seeing that the black line on the horizon was getting thicker and thicker, Yu Zhou didn't care about the siege at this time, he was more interested in what Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's subordinates would do than a walnut that had already smashed open the shell.
The smoke and dust fluttered, the hooves were terrifying, and the birds and birds were flying everywhere uneasily.
This formation was full of bluffs, but when the other party arrived, Yu Zhou suddenly felt lacking in interest, like a long-awaited meal turned into a hand-grabbed curry, both disappointed and unappetizing.
To be reasonable, two armies that are unknown to each other have to go through several temptations, scouts to fight, find out the terrain, outnumbered people, and so on, right?
This is not the case with this cavalry on the other side!
They didn't make any preparations, and came to the place two miles in front of the Chu army formation, shouting and drinking and restless, as if the Chu people's army formation was just meat on the plate and Chinese food on the plate, which was not worth mentioning.
Two miles of land, converted to six hundred steps, if you exert yourself, the eight-ox crossbow and catapult can catch this group of cavalry off guard.
Yu Zhou didn't receive the military order to take the initiative to start a war, and he also wanted to take a closer look at what the group of people on the opposite side were going to do, so he raised his arm and made a gesture, turned his head and asked Long He: "Little fat man, are you cavalry so arrogant when you fight?" ”
Long He pouted: "If my subordinates were in such a formation, they would have been cut ten times by Lao Tzu, you see, not to mention whether they are neat or not, and those who slip out of the back, I really don't know how to write a shame?" ”
Yu Zhou followed the little fat man's fingers and looked, isn't it, it is estimated that the other party is also a little unable to stop, only to find that it is a little too close when he arrives here, and he actually strangles the war horse You hug me and squeeze backwards, at this time, it is a big victory to kill the general.
It's very strange that the Chinese army didn't have any orders coming, and I don't know what Zhang Liang and Fan Zeng thought, Yu Zhou couldn't help it a little, and while urging the lookout soldiers to raise the flag and ask, he watched the enemy start to calculate.
Judging from the performance of the other party, he felt that if this group of people did not ride horses, they might not be so embarrassed, the cavalry was as strong as the wind, and their performance in the battle formation was far better than that of the foot soldiers, but not the soldiers on horseback were cavalry.
Counting on his fingers, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's men had not been transformed from peasants to soldiers for a long time, so how could they have a cavalry immediately?
Why does Xiang Ji attach so much importance to the few remaining Jiuyuan rides? Why have Long Ji's subordinates been slow to expand? The reason is here, because cavalry is too difficult to cultivate, especially for the Chu army, located in the south of the Yangtze River, there are few high-headed horses, let alone knights.
The Chu people with Gaoqiao saddles and horseshoes are still so difficult, and the Qin people who don't have these things almost have to invest the same weight of money to raise a cavalry, not to mention the priceless time, how can Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, and He De get a cavalry without spending money or time?
Maybe the surrendered Qin army can be used on the horse, but the atmosphere of the army is afraid that a rat feces will spoil a pot of soup, and then looking at the opposing enemy's pushing, pushing and shoving formation, Yu Zhou feels that this is no longer a matter of mixing water into wine, but mixing wine into water, and good soldiers have to be blind......
As the thought turned, a horse suddenly came running crookedly from the opposite side, and both men and horses turned and turned as if they were drunk, and without even saying a word, the knight's helmet was turned upside down.
"Whoosh-"
A sharp arrow flashed out and flew forward over the knight's scalp, but the knight was not seen, and behind him, the helmet flew out like a prey pounced on by a leopard, nailed to the ground and immovable.
At this moment, the Chu army saw it, and the "Qin cavalry" on the opposite side also saw it, accompanied by half noise and half cheers, Situ Yi's face did not change, and he said lightly: "I'm used to shooting." ”
Most of the messengers sent by Chen Sheng to "deliver the message" died at his hands......
Although the cavalryman didn't know what was happening, he was not stupid, and the feeling of a cold scalp kept stirring goosebumps like wheat waves, which suddenly made him even more embarrassed to control his horse.
Almost crawling off the war horse, the cavalryman's face was no longer the slightest majesty, just as he was trying to stand up straight and tidy up his armor, the surrounding Chu army saw this person's disheveled hair and ill-fitting appearance, and laughed heartily.
"This is the reinforcements of the Qin people? I think I can stew them in a spoonful. ”
"Hahaha, do you still know how to kill the billet? In my opinion, this person is also a person who gave Fan Juntou to feed the dog. ”
"Nonsense, my old Fan's dog doesn't eat dirty things."
After hearing this, the man was furious, his eyes were about to attack, and he was swept by a pair of dead fish eyes that were more terrifying than him, and he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, remembering how many messengers in front of him had died.
"I ...... I want to see your leader! ”
"Hehe, what about the leader, you just came down the mountain not long ago, right?
Tell you, our major general is leading the troops into battle now, and I don't have time to take care of you, get out, if you want to fight, close your mouth and do it, and if you want to fight, tie your hands and surrender, otherwise when the young general turns around, you can't run away if you want to! ”
I don't know how this guy's head grows, Fan Xu's threats were all ignored by him, and he only grabbed Xiang Ji and didn't have time to come back and started thinking, this thought, the cavalry envoy regained a little arrogant appearance: "Then just come to meet the envoy with a person in charge." ”
As soon as the words fell, a cold hand suddenly put on the back of the person's neck, without a word of nonsense, the person who grabbed him dragged the knife with one hand and the other hand, and walked out with the heavy blood all over his body.
"Jing Xiao, spare his life!"
"Humph!"
Jing Xiao is not good at torture, but he is very good at torture, it sounds a bit paradoxical, that is the reason why he is not good at words and withdrawn, speaking of which, the most closely related to the entire Chu army and him is Gongcheng Yangqing, but since there are rumors that these two people like to do something to the corpse, anyone who sees them will stay away.
What to do? Of course, the public ride as a healer has perfected what he has learned, but the scenery is scarce......
"Ah——!h
The pig-like shout almost punctured the eardrum, Fan Hao plucked out his ears, and his face full of meat was actually a little unbearable, and he picked up the man and said, "It's almost over, I'll send it to the military advisor first......
Jing Xiao rolled his eyes: "If you can't negotiate, send it to me again." ”
Fan Xu looked at the bamboo sticks on the man's legs, and the blood flowed out like a stream in the hollow, and said uneasily: "You won't die without asking two words, right?" ”
"No, I'm piercing the nerves instead of the blood, and the pain is doubled, but I don't have to worry about my life."
Jing Xiao dragged it out, Fan Hao took it back, back and forth, the unlucky messenger's face was covered with cold sweat, holding his legs and shivering, and when he was thrown into the military tent, he was even more constricted like a shrimp, and he was speechless in pain.
"Leader of the Army......"
"I... I say...... I say it all...... I beg of you...... Pull this out and let me go......"
