"Control zhì horse speed! Keep running! From time to time to look back to observe the distance from the chaser...... Yes, that's it...... Pay attention to the distance, good! Into range. Listen to the trumpet command, raise the bow, mount the arrow, and shoot back—"

With Tang Nu's hoarse order, a short and desolate horn sounded, and more than 30 Hange cavalrymen galloping on the field almost turned around and raised their bows one after another, swishing, and headless arrows fell like rain. Thirty paces away, Han Ge, who played the role of a chasing soldier and wore protective gear, rode and screamed in pain. Even though it is a headless arrow, it is inevitably painful to shoot it on exposed areas such as hands and feet. Even with the protection of the saddle and stirrups, these Han people, who had just turned from slaves to soldiers, were in a hurry.

Riding on silver arrows, the horseman kept an eye on the inspector thirty or forty paces from the outside of the cavalry, not letting go of a single mistake in training.

After the first round of the exercise, the team that played the chasing team led the Wu Chaser to report the results of the round of the exercise: "After ten miles of pursuit, six rounds of arrows were released from the horses, with a total of 23 people and 17 horses being hit by arrows; Seven of them were hit by arrows, and nine of them couldn't complete six rounds of horse arrows, and two of them only fired two rounds of ......"

"Demote these two to slave riders." Ma Han's tone was unmistakable.

"Whoa." Wu Chai said carefully, "This result is much better than half a month ago, if we can train for another month, we can pass the two hundred riding ninety percent." ”

Ma glanced at Wu Chai: "Don't be too happy, this is just a drill, if you really get to the battlefield, you will be affected by various factors, and I am afraid that you will not even be able to exert your current ability." A soldier who has not been tested in actual combat will never be qualified. ”

In the past two months, Ma Han continuously swept the tents of Karasuma and Xianbei on both sides of the river, rescued a large number of Han slaves, and captured thousands of Hu people as slaves. When did the Hou Han people also come to this set? The wolf eats the sheep and becomes the sheep eats the wolf, is there any reason for this?

In just two months, the Hange tribe gathered more than 2,000 Han people and captured nearly 3,000 slaves, making it a medium-sized tribe of 5,000 people. The reason for this achievement is that in addition to the bravery of the three armies, the newly formed Hange cavalry has also contributed a lot.

This group of Hange cavalry and followers were either young and strong Han people who had been captured for more than five years, or mixed-race Han people who were born in Hudi, and there were also a small number of Hu people. Among these people, whether it is a slave who herds sheep and horses for the Hu people, or a warrior who is recruited by the leaders of various tribes to participate in the mutual attack between tribes, they have lived outside the fortress for a long time, and they are accustomed to the Hu people, and their ability to ride and shoot is not under the Hu tribe such as Karasuma and Xianbei. Equipped with new harnesses, trained by military methods, and a sense of unity condensed by a common destiny, this cavalry quickly formed a fighting force.

is riding 200, from more than 150 cavalry, more than 350 skilled cavalry, even if they encounter the 300 Xianbei horses of the mud, they all have the strength to fight. But Ma Han was not satisfied, in his opinion, this army still has many flaws, the most obvious are three points:

1. Lack of real battlefield combat experience. Most of the Hange cavalry had seen blood, whether it was sweeping Zhuhu in the last two months, or participating in the battles between various tribes before, they had blood on their hands. But in Ma Han's view, this is at most the kind of Cheng dù that opens during gang fighting, which is completely different from the real battlefield.

Second, the equipment is poor. There is no shortage of horses in the Hango Department, and there are many craftsmen in the department who are good at making armor, and the short bows they make are not bad. However, due to the lack of copper and iron tools, the arrow system was limited, which was an obvious weakness for the Hange cavalry, who lacked blades and armor and mainly relied on bows and arrows to defend against the enemy.

3. Mounted archery is not dominant. If these galloping men were put into the Central Plains battlefield, they might have a certain advantage over the armies of the princes, who were mainly infantry, but they would have no advantage against the Xianbei people and Karasuma people, who were also good at riding and shooting. In fact, this still depends on the saddle, especially the help of the stirrup, and the galloping skills of the Hange cavalry are barely on par with the Hu cavalry, after all, they are professional warriors who have been fighting on horseback for half their lives, and they are not comparable to slaves who are not halfway monks.

Ma Han's idea was to use the advantage of horse harness to be one step ahead and train a Mongol-like cavalry. With archers as the main horse, specializing in returning horses and arrows, and building a powerful cavalry archers who can skillfully use the "Mangu" tactics in actual combat.

The Mongol cavalry that fought all over Europe and Asia in later generations relied on this set of wolf pack tactics. When he traveled in Hungary (said to be a descendant of the Huns), he visited the local museum and was impressed by detailed pictures, text descriptions, and even video simulations of this set of tactics. Therefore, during his escape from Hebei this time, he consciously honed this tactic and gained valuable experience from actual combat.

Of course, the so-called "mangu gang" is a set of team combination tactics, and one person cannot play it. In order for every Hange cavalry to learn and use, not only need excellent cavalry and archery skills, discipline to enforce prohibitions, but also a strong sense of teamwork and tacit understanding, which is difficult to use in an army with strong cohesion without long-term training. It's not just a casual cavalry unit, or even an army of "cavalry infantry", which can be played after a few months of training. If that's the case, this mangu is too worthless, how can he be worthy of Ruoda's reputation?

Since repelling the 300 Hu cavalry a month ago, Ma Han has slowed down his offensive to annex the surrounding tribes, and in addition to still accepting slaves from various tribes who have fled to the Hango tribe, Ma Han has devoted all his energy to the training of archers. The fist is hard, and the foothold is stable, even if it is the Central Plains Dynasty that pays attention to benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and faith, let alone outside the Mobei Sai.

"Team A rests, Team B continues. The old rule is that if the results of the team are not as good as others, they will wash and feed the opponent's war horses. Ma Han thought for a while, and added, "Tonight, add dinner, roast the whole sheep feast, and the winning team eats the leg of lamb." ”

In order to quickly improve the efficiency of training, Ma Han introduced a competition mechanism, and divided the 200 cavalry into two teams, A and B, with Tang Nu and Wu Chai each leading a team, playing the role of pursuit and counter-pursuit with each other. In this way, it is not only easy for each other to find various problems in training, but also form a healthy competition between the two teams. In the grassland outside the Saiwai, what is most important is bravery, what is most concerned is glory, and the most unbearable thing is losing, not to mention that if you lose, you have to wash and feed the opponent's war horse......

It is under this stimulus that both teams, whether riding or riding, are holding their breath. If you win today, I will win it back tomorrow. In the past two months, the tacit cooperation between the teams and the level of mounted archery have increased significantly, and the combat effectiveness has been initially formed.

When Donnu and Uchai announced in thunderous voices that the winner would eat the leg of mutton at the dinner, the three hundred Hango cavalry (there were still fifty cavalry patrolling around the area, not joining the training) roared in unison, one by one, like chicken blood, vowing to win the crown of the day. This is not only a question of washing and feeding the other party's war horses, nor is it only a question of which piece of meat to eat on the sheep, but more importantly, at the bonfire dinner, the dancing girls are flickering and the question of who the flickering autumn waves are handed to.

Iron hooves ran wildly, the grass was torn and smoked, and the Hango cavalry was in full swing of training.

Ma Han's eyes stared at the flickering shadows of the buildings in the billowing smoke and dust on the training ground, and his mind was also churning, thinking about the various information trends about the princes of the world that had been collected from the border merchants and merchants recently.

At that time, the world was in chaos, wolf smoke everywhere, and the princes were fighting each other.

On the battlefield of Hebei, the battle of the boundary bridge between Gongsun Zhan and Yuan Shao has ended. Due to the accidental death of Ko Yi, the first camp soldiers had no intention of fighting, and Gongsun Chan escaped a heavy catastrophe. But the so-called "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He", Ma Han helped Gongsun Zan kill Lu Yi, and it rewrote the history of the Battle of Jieqiao, but in a blink of an eye, he killed Du Chang of the Black Mountain Army. As a result, not only did Yuan Shao escape with his life, but also the entire Black Mountain battalion was completely defeated, and the Youzhou army lost an important Olympic reinforcement.

Ma Han did it on both sides like this, and history almost returned to the original point. Fortunately, Du Chang's Black Mountain Battalion was far from being comparable to Liyi's Xiandeng Battalion, so after a small setback, Gongsun Zhan once again recovered his decline, and fought back and forth with Yuan Shao, fighting for the first month. Until a month ago, the first camp attacked angrily, avenged the lord of the family, and once again hit the Youzhou cavalry, Gongsun Zan finally couldn't resist, first defeated and retreated to Nanpi, and then retreated to Jixian County, building a city in the southeast of the city to defend.

It seems that history seems to have turned back to the original point, but Gongsun Zhan is different from the great defeat and loss in history, this time he fought with Yuan Shao to the point of defeat and both losses, and the strength of both sides was lost Yan Zòng, and it was difficult to launch a large-scale battle in a short period of time. This also made various surrounding forces begin to move, such as Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, such as Sanjun Karasuma, various Xianbei, and some small forces that want to profit from it......

Central Plains battlefield, in February, Yuan Shu attacked Yuan and left Yuan in Yangzhou; In April, Wang Yun and Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo and drove the Xiliang army; In May, Dong Zhuo's remnants of Li Dao and Guo Yan invaded Chang'an; In June, Cao Cao broke the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou, collected hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, organized into the Qingzhou Army, and officially formed a team.

This world has begun to show the familiar situation of the Three Kingdoms in Ma Han's impression. It's a pity that his current strength is too weak, and he can't do anything around him with wolves. But just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you won't have opportunities in the future.

In the early days of the Three Kingdoms, the princes of the Quartet, which one was the strongest? There is no doubt that Gongsun Chan can definitely squeeze into the top three. In terms of hard power alone, that is, military strength, there are only a handful in the world. So, where does the prestige of General White Horse and the strength of Youyan Iron Cavalry come from? The answer is the aliens, the blood and bones of the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people, who have made this strong army of the Three Kingdoms.

Throughout the ages, all the armies that fought with nomadic aliens on the border were the most elite backbone of a dynasty. It will be the sharpest blade in the world.

Ma Han has full confidence, as long as he is given time to polish the "Ligo" in his hand, he will have a place among the heroes in the world in the future.

In the midst of his thoughts, he rode from afar, but he was one of the Hange cavalry patrolling on the south bank of the water, and reported loudly to Ma Han: "Report to the commander, there is a person who calls himself Yan Zhi, and he asks to see the commander." ”
