Chapter 154: The Mongolian Cavalry's Sworn Rival (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Zheng Defeng's arrangement has his own ideas and pains. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
First of all, as far as Lu Zhen's elite infantry unit looks like it is only more than 7,000 people in number, its combat effectiveness and importance are compared with all the soldiers under Zhang Shicheng in Gaoyou City, their role in this defensive battle is really crucial!
And the 5,000 cavalry of Lu Zhen's elite troops are not only not superior in numbers, but also in terms of the overall form of guarding Gaoyou City, their importance is really not as high as that of infantry with certain craftsman skills and farming skills!
Because the ultimate purpose of the Han army to form cavalry was to improve its own ability, so that it could go to the battlefield to resist the attack of Mongolian cavalry and infantry; But a journey of 10,000 miles begins with a single step, and the battlefield is not a swollen face and a fat man!
Although Lü Zhen's elite cavalry has been trained for a long time, it has never been able to get rid of its natural defects in body and endurance, and the Mongolian soldiers who have been in the Mongolian steppe for a long time, especially the Mongolian cavalry who have been carefully selected;
While encountering the elite cavalry of the Mongols, and still occupying an absolute advantage in the number of the other party, Zheng Defeng naturally knew that they would not be able to cope with it!
But!
Whether it was their choice to stay on the battlefield and continue to fight, or whether they disobeyed their orders to retreat, their own internal choices; Of course, the consequences are not borne by themselves!
Zheng Defeng weighed and said: If he hadn't given such an order, it would not only cause great damage to Lu Zhen's troops, but also make the soldiers of Lu Zhen's troops disheartened;
That is, the cavalrymen who went to the battlefield to fight with the Mongol cavalry looked down on the brothers in the same battalion who did not make the same choice as them and retreated, but did not insist on staying on the battlefield against the Mongol cavalry!
Just wait until this battle is over, how will they face the families of their brothers who have died for life;
How can they convince themselves that they can still have a clear conscience after seeing the corpses of their comrades-in-arms who have lived and trained with them for more than a year being sent back to Gaoyou City!
Moreover, he was already shouting that the majority of the infantry in Lu Zhen's troops had retreated, which minimized the casualties of Lu Zhen's elite infantry units as much as possible. ”
……
Thinking of this in his heart, Zheng Defeng couldn't help but smile embarrassedly and shook his head;
But soon, Zheng Defeng said to himself again: "That's right! And my group of brothers, my ghost soldiers, all of them are heroes who can take charge of themselves, what do I have to fear with them! ”
Every move of Lu Zhen's elite cavalry troops, Wu Qiling and other old fritters of the No. 100 ghost soldier team all saw it.
They didn't think that the cavalry of the so-called Lu Zhen's elite cavalry unit was so noble or magnificent;
Among the 100 people in the ghost army, most of them took their behavior for granted, and Zheng Defeng didn't want to let this group of soldiers of Lu Zhen's army who didn't know what to do in order to give Lu Zhen and Zhang Shicheng any face;
Wu Yiyi and Wu Qiling also agreed, only when they could face it bravely, the so-called elite soldiers of Lu Zhen's troops could personally feel what the real battlefield was, and what the so-called Mongolian iron cavalry was!
According to Su Zedong's words when he lectured the members of their ghost army, only when people really face death can they experience the cruelty of war and the preciousness of life!
However, these hundred members of the ghost soldier team are not immutable to the soldiers of this group of Lu Zhen's troops, and if they are placed before, when their juniors, the new members of the ghost soldier team, are covering the retreat of the soldiers of Lu Zhen's army;
They are guarding the prescribed position in a proper manner, don't make so many things out, a hundred old fritters of the ghost army may still have a trace of pity for them!
However, on the battlefield, if your teammates have compassion for you, then you are really not suitable to partner with him, because you are no longer on the same level, and you may be suitable for logistics; And if even the other party has pity for you, you are really not suitable to be a soldier!
Obviously, the more than 20 escaped cavalrymen of Lu Zhen's army not only lost face, but also let his "sworn enemy" Mongolian cavalry see it, and it is very likely that some of them have pity, then they are really not suitable to be soldiers!
Since their teammates have done such a thing that has lost their conscience and is indignant, the members of the ghost army will not believe that the cavalry of this group of Lu Zhen's elite troops will have a heart of gratitude and retribution, thinking that they are still on the battlefield at this time, most likely because they can't hold their faces!
It doesn't make sense for the members of the ghost team to figure out their psychology, and the generals of Lu Zhen's elite troops who were treated coldly by them know very well that they have disdain for themselves, their subordinates, and their soldiers!
After all, if there is a deserter in his own army, he can't hang his face, and the other party will definitely not treat him well!
Sure enough, without waiting for the soldiers of Lu Zhen's cavalry unit to hold their positions in place, they were completely in shape, and the members of the No. 100 ghost soldier team waved all kinds of weapons in their hands, clamped the belly of the horses under their crotch with excitement, and rushed towards the more than 10,000 Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side!
Moreover, in the eyes of the soldiers and even the generals of Lu Zhen's troops, they seemed to have no rules at all in terms of tactics and tactics, in other words, the members of the ghost army attacked out of anger!
But judging from the results, others could not see that the team, which had no rules to speak of, made it difficult for the enemy to move an inch when it was in a head-to-head confrontation with the Mongol cavalry!
If it is said, the new members of the ghost army team led by Wu Xiao and Zhao Yiqi do not have the ability to fight one against one hundred;
If these eighty-seven strong men were killed in the end, they only pulled down more than 3,000 Mongolian cavalry to go to the road to Huangquan, and the veterans of the ghost army represented by Wu Qiling were really able to sit and be able to kill people with one enemy or even a thousand people, and it was people who blocked and killed people, and demons blocked and killed demons!
Compared to the old fritters of the ghost soldier team, who seemed to be reluctant to move more, and could easily cut off several or even dozens of enemies who were ushered in by sitting on a horse, Wu Qiling's dispatch was extraordinarily flamboyant!
The soldiers of Lü Zhen's cavalry unit watched in amazement as Wu Qiling's horses were about to face off with the Mongol cavalry;
He held down the horse's body, and jumped very high, and then gorgeously used the halberd in his hand to cut off the oncoming Mongol cavalry with its head and sword!
