109, Murong Feng's harassment

Let's talk about it, update time, after it is put on the shelf, stipulate the update time, every day at 12 o'clock at noon and 8 o'clock in the evening, the time is uncertain, but it will generally be placed at one o'clock in the morning.

------------------------------------------------------

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Ziyun rushed to Yan with the Dragon Elephant Army and Baima Yicong, and this time there were too many Xianbei cavalry, which was not suitable for the thousands of infantry with Xiang Kang, so Xiang Kang stayed to guard Juyong Pass.

The scouts of the Dragon Elephant Army have been following closely behind the Xianbei cavalry, Bai Ziyun led the army to follow the marks left by the scouts for more than forty miles, and several cavalry in front of them ran over, which was the scout of the Dragon Elephant Army.

"Your Excellency, there is a Xianbei Iron Rider of about 5,000 people running towards this side." One of the scouts said.

"It's just in time, kill the enemy with me!"

Bai Ziyun shouted, took the lead, rode his horse and galloped, the Dragon Elephant Army and the White Horse Yicong both raised their spears and shouted: "Kill!" The soldiers followed closely behind, and their momentum was extraordinary, surging forward like a white torrent.

Soon a Xianbei cavalry appeared in front, swarming and galloping, the formation was orderly, and the leader was holding a spear, which was Murong Feng, the marshal in the middle of Xianbei.

Bai Ziyun couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he saw that the other party's riding skills were superb and orderly, most of the Xianbei cavalry were usually herdsmen, and they were cavalrymen when they went into battle, and their usual military training was limited. But this cavalry is completely different, the military appearance is neat, the expression is solemn, and the discipline is similar to that of the Dragon Elephant Army, and it seems that the opposing commander is an extraordinary person.

The cavalry on both sides quickly pulled closer, and while Murong Feng was still calculating the distance between the two sides, he suddenly heard Bai Ziyun shouting, "Release the arrow." ”

Suddenly, the feather arrows flew like locusts, overwhelmingly, Murong Feng was startled, and hurriedly raised a shield to protect his whole body, and in the swishing sound, he was caught off guard, and there were people around him who kept screaming and falling or horses neighing.

Murong Feng felt heartache and anger for a while, but he didn't expect that the arm strength of the opponent's cavalry was outstanding, and the range of the bow he used was fifty steps longer than that of the ordinary bow.

"The opponent's bow shooting distance is fifty steps longer than usual, it seems that the strength of these people is at least twice as strong as ordinary people, so it will be very bad to have a confrontation later!" Murong Feng concluded worriedly.

Finally arrived at the land of an arrow, Murong Feng hurriedly shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

At the same time, Bai Ziyun also ordered the arrow to be released again.

For a while, the feather arrows in the air were vertical and horizontal, and they shot into the camps of both sides, which would make the Xianbei cavalry have defense, and the shield used a clever angle to protect themselves and the horses, and this time the casualties were slight. The Xianbei cavalry's horse archery skills were good, and many feathered arrows hit the body of the white-armored cavalry, but Murong Feng was surprised that the other party couldn't dodge at all, and the arrows couldn't shoot through the white iron armor wrapped in the white-armored cavalry.

"The iron armor of the Changliu Immortal Gate is extremely hard, and it can defend against a strong bow within one arrow!" Murong Feng summed up in his heart, his heart became even heavier, his eyes sharpened, and he shouted loudly: "Shoot their horses!" ”

The Xianbei people are nomadic people, and horses are important partners in their lives, with different meanings, so they love horses very much, and cherish horses very much, including the enemy's horses.

Although Murong Feng's orders made them resist in their hearts, they all meticulously carried out their commander's orders.

These Xianbei cavalry horsemen were very exquisite, and with a turn of shape, they bent their bows and arrows, and shot a second round of bows and arrows at a very fast speed. But to Murong Feng's disappointment, the white-armored cavalry's riding and archery skills were not as good as those of Xianbei people, but their eyesight was very sharp, and their movements were extremely fast, and they used their shields to protect their horses, and they actually shot down on horseback, and none of the horses hit.

Murong Feng's heart was suddenly extremely heavy, with a wave of the spear in his hand, the Xianbei cavalry split like a tide, one team turned into two teams, and shot a round of feather arrows from left to right, but it had no effect, but at this moment the white-armored cavalry also shot a round of feather arrows, and as a result, the distance between the two sides was shortened, and the opponent's bow and arrow were much stronger, and they shot many horses, and finally those cavalry who fell off their horses were also quickly killed by the other party.

The cavalry on both sides quickly staggered, Murong Feng waved his spear, and thousands of cavalry reined in and turned back, and soon killed them, extremely fast and vigorous.

Bai Ziyun couldn't help but be moved, and muttered: "The general of this Xianbei cavalry is very talented and talented, and the Xianbei cavalry's bow and horse skills are also very strong, but they are not eggs!" ”

"Master, what do you mean by not having an egg?" Gongsun Zhan, who was beside him, moved his ears and couldn't help but ask.

"But there's no shorthand for eggs." Bai Ziyun said with a smile.

"It's a good word, concise, simple, lively, and funny." Gongsun Chan exclaimed.

Bai Ziyun was very pleased, this guy was under his own influence, and his ability to learn and absorb was getting stronger and stronger.

The two laughed and talked in the middle of the military formation, not paying attention to the Xianbei cavalry at all. The gap between the forces and equipment of the two sides is too big, it is not a level at all, Bai Ziyun is not in a hurry to eat this cavalry, but patiently studies the tactics of the other party, the other party's general is obviously a veteran of the battlefield, there are many things worth learning from him, the five thousand cavalry of Xianbei is just an appetizer, and the tens of thousands of cavalry of the eldest prince are the main event.

In the first encounter, both sides watched the battle stage, and did not fight hard, and the second time it was staggered, Bai Ziyun thought that the other party would start to attack, but he didn't expect that like the first time, he was still divided into two teams, avoiding the collision of the two teams, but still shooting with bows and arrows. Naturally, it was useless, and Bai Ziyun's side was unscathed, but the other party was shot dead by many people.

Murong Feng suddenly roared, waved his spear, and suddenly walked away with the cavalry. Bai Ziyun and the cavalry chased closely, but the horses of the Xianbei cavalry were faster, and they were finally pulled farther and farther away and disappeared from sight.

Murong Feng couldn't make up his mind to fight the white-armored cavalry after all, and he had already seen the strength of these white-horse cavalry in close combat two days ago. What's more, his task is to delay the progress of the other party, so that the eldest prince has enough time to carry out the plunder, but now after a pair of shots, he found that he couldn't drag the other party at all, because the other party was not afraid of the strong bow of the Xianbei cavalry.

Murong Feng's harassment was meaningless, so he had no choice but to leave.

Bai Ziyun looked at Xianbei's distant figure, shook his head and said regretfully: "The other party is light cavalry, we are heavy cavalry, and the speed and endurance of the horses are not comparable to them after all." ”

"yes." Gongsun Chan is also sorry.

Bai Ziyun was very helpless, the heavy cavalry was this characteristic, even if the medieval heavy cavalry used the Arabian horse with the strongest load capacity, it was still the case, and it could only run slowly, otherwise it would soon run out of strength. The steel used for these armors of the Changliu Xianmen is of very high quality, almost close to modern times, not the iron cans of the Middle Ages that can't stop the compound bow, and it is also much lighter, but still the horse's endurance and speed are not high.

Bai Ziyun's design of heavy cavalry is the psychology of modern people cherishing life, he cherishes every soldier, hoping to reduce his own casualties, the result is a single army, although he can be invincible, but if the other party avoids not fighting, he is helpless.

This made him realize the need to increase the number of light cavalry units.

Bai Ziyun said: "Count our casualties. ”

Gongsun Chan smiled: "I have been keeping an eye on our men and horses, there should be no casualties, and it is estimated that the horses will have some injuries." ”

Soon the statistics came out, and sure enough, there were no casualties, and several of the horses were shot and injured by the other party due to improper protection, but it was not a big deal.

"Keep going!"

Suddenly, the Dragon Elephant Army and the White Horse Yicong turned into a white torrent and galloped forward without hurrying or slow.
