Chapter 193: Heavy Cavalry
"General Yunye, don't come unharmed, how are you doing lately?"
As soon as Yun Ye and the others walked into the Huxin Pavilion, the Great Master smiled and asked, except for Yun Ye, Li Yi and the three of them had never seen the Great Teacher, but they felt that this person was very terrifying, not vicious, but kind, a person who can control a country, would he really be so kind? Perhaps under this kind face, there is a viciousness that cannot see the light.
"It doesn't feel very good, I saw so many people grabbing the bark on the side of the road to eat again, I felt uncomfortable, after I got here, I was disturbed when I ate, the great teacher, you didn't fulfill the friendship of the landlord."
Yun Ye knocked on the side, this kind of thing, if he didn't mention it, the great master would definitely not mention it, he could mention this matter, let them feel indebted to themselves, and when they would negotiate, it would be easier to talk and make demands.
"This is indeed the old man's negligence, and the old man will make amends to General Yun."
The great master didn't wait for Yun Ye to speak, he directly picked up a glass of wine on the table and drank it down, and then raised the empty cup towards Yun Ye and the others.
It's really an old fox, so he revealed this matter, and didn't give Yun Ye time to react at all, it seems that he had already made a plan.
"Now that time is running out and this matter has been resolved, can we talk about how to work together?"
In order to prevent Yun Ye from coming up with something to blackmail him, the great master directly brought the topic to the topic they were going to talk about today.
"Well, time is pressing, let's get started."
After all, those things are just a small trick, a small means, far less important than today's things, this time the Huns and the northern army went south together, this is a powerful threat that neither of them has ever faced, so now they can't be careless.
Serious things first, those other grievances and hatreds will be put aside for the time being, at this point, he Yunye is still a person who takes care of the overall situation, not for anything else, he is just for the people of the world, in order not to let them become slaves of the country, in order to be able to let them continue to straighten their waists and be people.
"I came here today to make sure that the supreme command of the allied forces belongs to me Yunye, and although the northern army and the Huns are going south together, they will definitely not fight together, and they must also be guarding each other, so it is impossible to be close."
"Two, you Dajin pick one, and let's deal with the rest."
Yunye had a direct showdown, and the few conditions he mentioned before, such as the command of the allies, remained unchanged, and now the northern border and the Xiongnu let the Great Jin each choose one, so as to avoid that one side is desperate and the other side is passively slacking off.
And after such a clear division of labor, it will also make people feel a lot more at ease, so that both sides can rest assured that they will fight to the death with their respective opponents, and they are not worried that their strength will be greatly weakened after this battle, and they will be eaten by the other side at that time, because his allies are also doing the same thing, if they are weakened, they will definitely be weakened and affected.
"Then it's good to dare like this, since General Yun asked us to pick first, then the old decay is disrespectful, let's pick the northern border. I hope that General Yun can lead the Western Army to defeat the Huns, and we are waiting for your good news. ”
The great division chose the northern army with a smile, compared with the Huns, the northern border and the Huns must be stronger, and they still have a psychological advantage in the face of the northern border, no matter what, the northern border is only the rebel army of the Great Jin, and they are the orthodoxy of the Great Jin, facing them, it can be regarded as cleaning the portal.
"Okay, then let's fight with the Huns, even if you want to choose the Huns, I won't let you choose, the Huns are all cavalry, and your Dajin cavalry is mainly in the north, and now they are mostly infantry, but your infantry can't beat the Huns, so let my western army come and touch them, and see if the desert cavalry is powerful, or the cavalry of our western army is powerful."
Yunye already had a crazy idea, the desert cavalry of the Huns is famous all over the world, and it can be called the first cavalry in the world, if it can be used to train the Western Army, the trained soldiers will be invincible in the world!
Cavalry is divided into two extremes, one is light cavalry, light and flexible, can run long distances, combat effectiveness is also good, is now a popular type of arms used in all countries; There is another kind, which is the other extreme, that is, heavy cavalry, a body of iron armor, even the war horses, are armed to the teeth, and every cavalry is like a fortress that can be moved.
The heavy armored cavalry is the clever trick that Yun Ye thought of, they can attack when they advance, they can defend when they retreat, they can face any kind of army without suffering, and they are born to restrain light cavalry. You must know that the Huns have lived on the grassland for a long time, and their cavalry likes the feeling of galloping, so almost all of them are light cavalry, if they also fight them with light cavalry, it is not exactly what they want.
Yun Ye is also self-aware, the tricks that others rely on to survive will definitely not be simple, if he really uses the light cavalry of the Western Army to fight the Huns to the death, he will definitely suffer heavy casualties in the end.
But if you use heavy cavalry, it is different, the Huns are most afraid of heavy cavalry, a hundred heavy cavalry, you can break the formation of thousands of Huns, although this is an exaggeration, but it shows the fear of the Huns for heavy cavalry.
It's just that the training of heavy armored cavalry is extremely difficult, and the requirements for soldiers and war horses are extremely high, and the soldiers must wear forty or fifty pounds of armor, plus their own weight, and the whole is pressed on the war horse, and the war horse has to run and fight, so the requirements for the war horse are extremely harsh. And the heavy armor knight needs to bear so much weight and also need to charge into battle, so the first criterion for selecting a heavy armor knight is that the requirements for a strong man are also very demanding.
And there is another point, and the most difficult, the armor required by heavy cavalry is different from that of ordinary soldiers, the thickness of the armor on their bodies is twice that of ordinary soldiers, and the area of protection is wider, so it is more wasteful of steel.
The amount required to build 3,000 pairs of heavy cavalry armor is enough for them to create 10,000 pairs of light cavalry armor, plus theirs, they are all heavy and sharp, and they also consume more materials than the weapons used by ordinary soldiers, so the cost of making a heavy cavalry is not small.
But Yun Ye has already begun to act, and the first batch of heavy armored knights of the Western Army may have been selected and started training now. (To be continued.) )
