Chapter 1617: Mongol Tactics
"Hehe......"
Hearing Lu Fengxian's provocation, the overlord Xiang Yu chuckled, he couldn't see what he was thinking, and looked at Lu Fengxian, who was high-spirited, as if he was looking at his previous self!
Maybe it's because of the experience, maybe it's because of the identity, maybe it's because of the realm.
The overlord Xiang Yu is still domineering now, but he is no longer as impulsive and violent as he was back then.
On the one hand, the overlord Xiang Yu is now a great courtier, so naturally there is no need to compete with the eldest prince; On the one hand, Xiao Ying, Liu Bang, Xiang Yu and others competed for hegemony in Huaxia Shenzhou, Xiao Ying won, Xiang Yu disappeared and fled, took refuge in the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, and has been holding his tail to be a man. Finally, after the overlord Xiang Yu left the Pangu world, although he lost the atmospheric luck of the heavenly family, he had excellent talent, and now he is already in the realm of immortals, and his mood is naturally different!
Don't look at the past ten years, Xiao Ying is now in the realm of Da Luo, and Xiang Yucai's realm is slow in cultivation, and there is no contrast between the two. The supernatural power of replenishing the heavens is the most important factor, followed by resources, exercises and other issues. With Xiang Yu's cultivation speed, he can be regarded as a genius in any force in the Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms!
Seeing that Xiang Yu chuckled silently, Lu Fengxian thought that he knew Xiang Yu's jealous thoughts, and couldn't help but say loudly as if he was being contempted:
"How? Does the overlord dare? Rest assured, now that you are a minister in the same palace, you will not maliciously calculate. This is a healthy competition, this king will not and disdains to play tricks, and he can afford to lose! ”
"Good!"
Xiang Yu's mind turned, and he responded quickly.
At the same time, Xiang Yu couldn't help but think of the agreement of "princes to conquer Qin...... The one who enters Xianyang first is king.
It's a pity that in the end, all the princes failed to capture the Xianyang imperial capital. Now the princes of all parties in the past have either fallen or gone into hiding. Either surrender to Dahuan. And Liu Bang, the most prestigious Han king, and his overlord Xiang Yu died and surrendered (Xiang Yu was half surrendered), and their respective forces Han and Western Chu had long since disappeared!
However, Lu Feng talked about this first, and it was good to play with him. The province has always been remembered by Lu Fengxian, and there is more trouble.
The so-called god of war, of course, is the most important personal strength. However, the real embodiment is the combat power on the battlefield, and this kind of competition is not bad. Of course, if Lu Fengxian really wants to fight alone, it doesn't make much sense, because neither of them will kill each other. There are many taboos against each other, so naturally there is no point!
Not long after, the army of Dahuan's Northern Expedition was divided into six routes, which were commanded by six major commanders, including Lu Fengxian, Xiang Yu, Meng Tian, Wang Ben, Long Ji, and Ji Bu, and rushed into the prairie like a giant dragon.
The six-way Dahuan army coincidentally chose to take the elite cavalry as the vanguard and the main force, and the pro-guard army of each protagonist as the mainstay. The rest of the ordinary cavalry was supplemented, followed by the boundless infantry like the tide.
Pity. Although most of the war horses in the Dahuan Heavenly Dynasty and even in the territory of Dahuan have been gathered in the Northern Expeditionary Army, the war horses allocated to the Sixth Route Army are about three million on average. A million cavalry gathered, the momentum was astonishing, and the earth trembled. But. Compared with the scale of terror on both sides, it obviously does not play a big role, and it does not have an overwhelming factor!
Today's Northern Alliance is still dominated by various powerful countries in the Russian Federation, such as the Silver Empire, the Heavenly Wolf Dynasty, the Ice and Snow Dynasty, and the Heavenly Fierce Kingdom. It was followed by Wei and Beidi. and the Shanyue Dynasty and the Black Sky Dynasty in Kazakhstan, the Kazakh Dynasty in the Taji Kingdom, and the Mor Dynasty in the Kyr Region, a total of 23 national forces. After months of fierce fighting, the Northern Alliance was defeated, but the total number of troops was still more than two billion, densely spread over the originally vast and sparsely populated steppe.
More importantly, after being led by the incarnated immortals, and evaluated and voted by the leaders of various national forces, the Northern Alliance is now led by the resurrected Genghis Khan, a super military strategist who is extremely good at large-scale battles.
Although the Northern Alliance has gathered 23 national forces, hundreds of powerful families, sects and other forces, it is a typical scattered sand. However, under the command of Genghis Khan, the northern coalition army slowly retreated, but retreated without chaos.
In less than seven days, the vanguard cavalry of the Dahuan Sixth Route Army caught up with the tail of the Northern Coalition Army. This is also the reason why the Dahuan cavalry did not march at full speed, after all, with the terrifying number of the Northern Alliance, it is difficult for the cavalry of about 20 million cavalry to catch up, and they can't be kept or destroyed, maybe they will be "killed"!
The reason why the Great Huan Heavenly Dynasty sent troops to pursue was mainly to coerce, weaken, and expand the territory, and the temporary goal was to capture the prairie, and it was completely impossible to annihilate the northern coalition army!
The Northern Coalition Army stayed in the prairie for several months, and the original verdant and green prairie was trampled on all the grass and destroyed the oasis, like a locust crossing the border, which made the prairie almost a desert, and it was desolate as far as the eye could see!
Dahuan cavalry appeared, iron hooves like thunder, dust like dragons, from a very long distance, you can see the gray dust that connects the sky and the earth, like a sandstorm!
With such a big momentum, it is naturally impossible for the Northern Coalition Army not to notice it.
The ordinary troops of the Northern Coalition Army are still slowly retreating, but there are various forces leading a group of elite soldiers.
In mid-air, eagles, eagles, eagles, and other giant birds soar, tens of thousands, like dark clouds, layered on top of each other, as far as the eye can see, quite a tendency to cover the sky and the sun.
On the ground, there are hundreds of troops, which look quite complicated, but they are all bright helmets and armor or brocade clothes and jade clothes, cold as stars, obviously all elite, there are Beidi cavalry, there are Wei elite soldiers, there are exotic wolf horses, there are murderous tiger horses, there are brocade crossbow soldiers, etc., most of them are cavalry, obviously planning to use cavalry to cavalry, in order to get rid of entanglement, qualified palace.
The sand and dust are like dragons, the iron horses are deafening, and the earth trembles!
When the roaring torrent of the Dahuan Iron Cavalry appeared on the horizon, the Northern Coalition camp did not hold guns and halberds or line up troops to defend, but there were hundreds of cavalry teams of 10,000 units, rushing out as fast as arrows from the string and facing the Dahuan Cavalry.
At the same time, all kinds of giant birds that had been covering the top of the dark clouds also spread out like the wind blowing the clouds, spreading their huge wings and sliding towards the charging Dahuan cavalry.
"Hard battle?!"
Seeing the reaction of the enemy, the generals of Dahuan were in high spirits, and as a chaser, the last thing they were afraid of was hard fighting!
Ten Miles......
Wuli ......
Seeing that the two sides were about to collide head-on like a torrent, the northern cavalry picked up not spears and swords or giant spears and halberds, but longbows and crossbows and magic weapons, and the same was true for the giant birds in mid-air.
One mile ......
300 meters......
Seeing that the two sides entered the firing range, the cavalry in the middle of each other's ranks had already bent their bows and arrows or began to cast spells.
"Uh, ah...... Whoa, whoa, whoa......"
The horses neighed and the wolves howled, and the northern cavalry either rushed or scattered left and right, and at the same time, the dense sharp arrows and crossbows, like a meteor shower, burst out with a dense and sharp sound of breaking the air; There was also a colorful light, converging into a tiger roaring in the air, and Wei Ruo swept a torrent of qiē.
However, with the elite of the Dahuan Vanguard Army, especially the undead demon army at the forefront, Lu Fengxian's Spring and Autumn Iron Cavalry, Meng Tian's Montessori Iron Cavalry, Wang Ben's Yiben War Cavalry, Long Ji's Lou Fu Jing Cavalry, Ji Bu's Xinhu War Cavalry, etc., are all top-level exclusive special troops, plus powerful battle arrays and armor, ordinary arrow rain spells, for the top special troops that have experienced a hundred battles and crisscross the battlefield, it cannot be said that they are completely ignored, but they can't cause much damage!
Under the rain of crossbow arrows, bathing spell frenzy!
In the first wave of enemy sniping, the casualties of the Dahuan cavalry were less than one thousandth, and in the war, especially when charging, it was basically negligible!
To the surprise of the Dahuan cavalry, as soon as they rushed to the enemy camp, the enemy troops scattered in all directions, and did not contact the Dahuan cavalry at all, and the tide of arrow rain was pouring in continuously, continuing to cause casualties. Although the casualties are not large, the victory is endless, and after a long time, the casualties will naturally be large!
Of course, with the growth of the power system, the pawn defense is generally strengthened, and the pawn attack is also increasing, which is the principle of synchronization, and ordinary tactics need to be changed, but they are still effective.
A moment later, the six main generals were followed by the ordinary cavalry of the Great Huan Heavenly Empire, and the ordinary cavalry did not have such a strong defensive power. In addition, the enemy's arrow rain spells, etc., are obviously aimed at war horses, and war horses are not as strong as cavalry, otherwise what is sacrificed is mobility, and they will become heavy cavalry.
For a time, the Dahuan cavalry turned over on their backs, a large area of cavalry fell into the dust, the cavalry casualties were not large, but the war horses suffered heavy casualties, and the most important thing is that with the war horses or wounded or killed, the cavalry camp was naturally chaotic, and it spread out at a great speed, quite a group of defeats like a mountain, and a trend of comprehensive chaos.
And the six main generals of the personal guards, with their own defense and combat strength, wanted to catch up with the enemy army and kill them, but the enemy army did not pick up the station at all like hide and seek, and still only responded with long-range attacks, so angry that the three corpses of the Dahuan cavalry jumped violently and were helpless!
"The whole army obeys the order, stop!"
Fortunately, the commanders of the six roads are all famous generals who have experienced a hundred battles, and they quickly guessed the enemy's strategy, quickly reacted, and quickly adjusted their tactics.
In this way, the offensive of the Dahuan camp naturally slowed down greatly, and it also lost the power of the charge, and even lost the advantage of high mobility of the cavalry.
The Northern Coalition also seems to have anticipated the current situation, and still uses mobility to move around, not retreating, not engaging or advancing, but long-range attacks such as sharp archery spells are still non-stop, regardless of whether they work or not.
"The most famous archery tactic of the Mongol Empire!"
"It seems that the supreme commander of the Northern Coalition Army is Genghis Khan, not a rumor!"
Soon, the six major generals, who were thousands of miles away from each other, reached a consensus and guessed the enemy's tactics. He no longer rushed to charge, but continued to advance tactics unhurriedly.
There is mental calculation or not, when it comes to long-range attacks, the average range, horsemanship and chaotic formation of the Dahuan cavalry are indeed inferior to the northern coalition army, and it is obvious that they will suffer a loss if they continue to entangle, so they can only wait for the rear army to arrive and roll over with the general momentum!
I have to admit that although the Mongolian tactics were shameless, they were very effective, at least they withstood the momentum of the Great Huan Heavenly Empire. Next, it depends on how the two sides plan and where the Northern Coalition intends to retreat! (To be continued......)
