As he spoke, Li Xu had already led the cavalry to and fro three times in front of the enemy formation formed by the scarecrow. Although the archery skills of the soldiers were uneven, they accumulated more than 1,000 arrows that entered the enemy line. From a distance, almost every scarecrow facing the cavalry assault from the first row to the fifth row had arrows hung on it, if they were not straws but ordinary soldiers, it is estimated that they would have already fled by this time.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Xu waved the corner flag again and started the fourth attack on the enemy. This time, instead of scattering into a horizontal formation, the brethren followed the Lord and formed a sharp sword. Everyone no longer held a bow in their hands, and the standard horizontal knives of the Great Sui army glittered in front of their horses. In order not to cause trouble for themselves, the cavalry did not really slash and kill as they rode their horses through the straw position. They just slashed diagonally downward in the way the master explained at the moment when the war horse and the prey were staggered. Instead of slashing, it was whipped like a whip, and with each drop, the light of the knife hit the eyes of the spectators in the distance like lightning.

After a while, Li Xu took his own troops through the formation, and then turned back to kill. At the same time, Luo Shixin from the left and Dugu Lin from the right, diagonally inserted into the "enemy" array. Three groups of cavalry met in the center of the enemy line. Then, under Li Xu's orders, everyone dispersed again, cooperating with each other to divide the "enemy army" into countless pieces. At the moment when the three figures met again, Dugu Lin and Luo Shixin coincidentally grabbed the front of the lance and lifted the lance upward. This is a gesture to salute the opponent before the battle between the two armies, and it is used here to express the mood of the two.

Li Xu put the black knife in front of him, raised the tip of the knife, and greeted the two colleagues. In the next moment, all three of them saw knowing smiles in each other's eyes. Xuzi knew that she had done the right thing, and she had a difficult time in her life. Since the day he recklessly took in Shi Lan, there has been a gap between several colleagues and him. Although everyone didn't say anything, the ice-like barrier was obvious. Today, however, this layer of ice has unknowingly thinned by three points, and it only takes a little more effort in the future to make it fall apart.

Friendships between young people are built over time. However, the friendship between adults is mostly won back by their own ability. People who are far from each other in their abilities cannot become true friends, and even if they are barely mixed together, it is difficult to put their hearts together. Asahiko, who once again comprehended the mystery of life, smiled, pulled out the corner flag from behind his back, and waved it vigorously in the sun. With a deafening shout, the soldiers changed their formations again, this time to rush to the rear of the enemy line, where he erected his own banner.

"It's the first time in my life that I've seen such a perfect combination of Turkic tactics and Central Plains tactics!" Qin Shubao looked at the backs of Li Xu, Luo Shixin and others, and praised loudly. He recognized that the tactics that Xuzi used when he finally charged into battle was the cooperation that he and Luo Shixin and the others had just practiced. Although this tactic was used entirely by the light cavalry, and was far less powerful than the armored cavalry and light cavalry charging together, its attack speed and agility far exceeded that of the armored cavalry.

"It's the first time I've seen it. Our army is really going to be trained, and I am afraid that there will be a bloody storm in the land of Qilu! Zhang Xutuo nodded and let out a soft sigh. Although the tactics that Li Xu practiced just now were still flawed, they were used to deal with the rogue armed forces who had no armor and no bows and arrows, and it was simply a one-sided massacre. What's more, cavalry using this tactic doesn't need expensive iron equipment at all to exert great power. In this way, the cost of maintaining the daily expenses of the county soldiers will be greatly reduced, and it will not be long before the Qi county will finally be able to save some money to replace the slightly more decent clothes and armor of ordinary soldiers.

"If there are ten times the number of Turkic wolf riders in the Saiwai encounter, how can the Great Sui fight?" Qin Shubao pondered for a moment, arched his hand to Zhang Xutuo, and asked for guidance very politely.

"If it was the Great Sui two years ago, 300,000 elite soldiers were there, even if there were more Turkic wolf riders, what would they be afraid of!" Zhang Xutuo stroked his beard proudly and said. "Kill in echelons with a hard crossbow to frustrate its sharpness. Engage head-on with heavily armored foot soldiers, disrupting its rhythm. Outflank with light cavalry and cut off their rear routes. Then he rode forward with armor, hum, I'm not afraid that he won't come, let's kill him as much as he comes! ”

"What if the enemy and our soldiers are equal, and we only have a small number of armored cavalry, and the rest are all ordinary foot soldiers and light armored cavalry?" Qin Shubao thought for a moment and pointed to a few colleagues in the distance to ask.

He never hid his true thoughts in front of Zhang Xutuo. Dealing with the Turkic wolf rider, that is a very distant matter, and he does not need to worry about it for the time being. But if he encounters an opponent who uses the same tactics as Li Xu on the land of Qilu, he feels that he is not sure of victory.

"The infantry was stationed in a camp, and the armored cavalry met the enemy head-on, preventing the enemy from approaching. Light cavalry burst out of its flanks! Zhang Xutuo glanced at Qin Shubao and replied with a smile. However, this is not a sure way to win, and the specific result will depend on which of the two main players is better at seizing opportunities. Also, the gains and losses of an occasional battle are small, and it is very important to take advantage of the situation and strategize! ”

"The last general hopes that he will never meet on the battlefield!" Qin Shubao carefully tasted the answer given by Zhang Xutuo, and said with a wry smile.

"You are all my Great Sui generals, how can you kill each other. Besides, Zhong Jian's mind is still stuffed! Zhang Xutuo let out a long sigh again, waved the order flag, and asked Li Xu, Luo Shixin and others to end the drill.

Li Xu was not thinking about this, although he had come up with a set of tactical moves that could effectively deal with the rogues according to the actual situation of the soldiers of Qi County in just a few months. But Zhang Xutuo could see that the imaginary enemy who acted immediately was not exactly a rogue with extremely poor equipment and combat effectiveness. A large part of that complex set of tactical maneuvers was used against the Cypriot cavalry, especially the Cypriot light cavalry, which consisted of wandering shepherds; Another part of the tactics, which was used against the infantry in formation, was also very effective. The countries around the Great Sui that had both shepherd cavalry and large-scale infantry could only be Goguryeo or Turkic, and Li Lang would also dream of attacking Goguryeo! Maybe the young man himself didn't think so much about it when he was training, but his mind had unconsciously penetrated into every move.

"General Li Lang has accompanied His Majesty to the East twice, but this time he stayed in Qi County, it is inevitable that he will feel regretful!" Qin Shubao saw Zhang Xutuo sigh and smiled comfortingly. Looking back at the cavalry who were returning from the group, in addition to the relaxation, a sense of pride surged in his heart. It may not be a bad thing for him to be able to fight the bandits side by side with such a colleague who has rich combat experience and a flexible mind. Forty-four years old, well, a man is not too old at this age.

"Well, it's okay, he's been training with us for a while. Even if I go back to Saishang in the future, I am also a strong general who can protect the peace of the people of the Central Plains! Zhang Xutuo replied with a smile, and in a moment, he had left the regret in his heart behind.

The Great Sui Dynasty fought against the Turks but had few defeats, from the general Wang Yang Shuang to the later Yang Su and Yuwenshu, everyone had beaten the wolves and fled. But now the 300,000 government soldiers and their weapons and armor have been buried in Liaodong, if the Turkic wolf cavalry invades again at this moment, who will stand up for the Great Sui?

Li Lang will be a talent, and Qin Shubao is also a talent. One of the two passed on his mantle was enough. Zhang Xutuo looked at Qin Shubao again, and changed his decision again in his heart. "In this way, it will be fairer to Shubao!" He thought with a smile, put down the command flag in his hand, and hurried to meet the three henchmen who returned on horseback.

"Pay the order to Lord Zhang!" Li Xufei dismounted and raised his eyebrows at the Lingqiping given by Zhang Xutuo.

"Order! General Lee's hard work! Zhang Xutuo took back the order flag representing the command in front of the formation with both hands, and turned around and handed it to the flag officer beside him. Then, he patted the shoulders of the three generals one by one, and said with a laugh: "The old man can be regarded as an eye-opener today, I have such an elite soldier and strong general in Qi County, why worry about the rogue coming!" ”

"Thanks to the guidance of Lord Tongshou!" Three rising stars of about the same age replied in unison.

"You three little sycophants, you can lead the troops well, what's the matter with the old man!" Zhang Xutuo scolded with a smile, and reached out to pull Li Xu's arm, "Zhong Jian, where did you learn this method of riding and shooting." If we teach all the thousands of people with horses and horses in Qi County, how long will it take? ”

"Brother Qi County is already well-trained, these few simple actions, within a month, should be a small success!" Li Xu thought about it and replied.

"Well, from tomorrow onwards, all the soldiers under Luo will follow you!" Without waiting for Zhang Xutuo to speak, Luo Shixin shouted first.

"Everyone fights side by side, of course, we have to learn from each other's strengths!" Dugu Lin's reaction speed was not slow, and he followed Luo Shixin to say the words of seeking advice.

The two of them had seen Li Xu train his own two-hundred-step horseback riding and archery alone a few days ago, and they didn't pay much attention to it. The number of cavalry in the county is too small, and the accuracy of archery shooting is low, and a few white feathers suddenly appear in the battle formation, which is tantamount to scratching the boots for the large number of enemy troops. But today, after seeing the tactics adopted by Li Xu, everyone realized that the power of mounted archery was so huge. Therefore, they wished to rely on Li Xu and take all the tactics they had just seen as their own.

"Then from tomorrow, Shixin and Chongmu will also take their subordinates and practice the art of riding and archery with Zhong Jian. When the cavalry under the command of the three of you is all trained, and Shubao joins in with the armored cavalry, let's reorganize a killing formation! Zhang Xutuo was happy to hear this, and ordered with a smile.

"Obey your lordship's orders!" Luo Shixin and the others couldn't wait to answer.
