Chapter 357: Marching into the Prairie
Just when Gao Tian was self-absorbed, a sound of horses' hooves sounded, interrupting Gao Tian's self-YY.
Gao Tian turned his eyes angrily, and saw two figures rushing towards this side on horseback.
"Master."
"Master."
One crisp, the other heavy, and the voices of two teenagers rang out.
The people who came were all about seventeen or eighteen years old, and they still had the childishness of teenagers.
But their bright eyes show that they are not as immature as they seem.
"It's you two boys, it's not good to be in the barracks, what are you doing here?"
Gao Tian looked at the two familiar figures and couldn't help but laugh and scold.
"It's not that I know that the master and the two masters are here, so Xiaoling and I came over to say goodbye."
The thick-voiced teenager said cynically.
As soon as his words came out, Ruthless and Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but blush.
"Kou Zhong, you kid doesn't have any good words in his mouth."
Gao Tian patted Kou Zhong's head angrily and secretly gave him an approving look, but he still looked angry on the surface.
"Hee-hee."
Kou Zhong received the praise from the heavens, and he gave a look back in understanding.
Xu Ziling on the side was in all this, but he didn't know what to say because of his flat nature, or just smiled as usual and enjoyed the rare warmth for him and Kou Zhong.
These two teenagers are Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, who were sent back to the northwest by Xia three years ago with their books.
Now he has worshiped Gao Tian as his teacher, and officially debuted a year ago, and he is also well-known in the Northwest Army.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were only fifteen years old when they came to the northwest, which was not too old.
In addition, after practicing the inner family fist and the longevity formula, they quickly became second-rate masters, and entered the army, and grew up quickly without exposing their relationship with the heavens.
Now the two of them are respectively commanders of 3,000 people and have independent combat authority.
"You two boys, what the hell is going on, you are all masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, especially you Kou Zhong."
Gao Tian was not polite at all, and scolded with a smile.
Although Gao Tian had already accepted Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling as apprentices, the nature of the two of them was completely different from that of Ku Ling.
In contrast, Gao Tian is more like compensating Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, which is a transaction.
Therefore, Gao Tian's relationship with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling is somewhat complicated, they are both masters and apprentices, and friends and the like.
"The master has won the prize."
Kou Zhong smiled cheekily.
It was Xu Ziling, who seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"Fuck off, hurry up and tell what's going on, or I'll leave."
Gao Tian scolded with a smile.
"This ...... This one...... Is it a matter of going on an expedition? ”
Kou Zhong finally spoke up.
"Expedition? What's the matter, is there any scruple in the army about going out on a campaign? ”
The heavens are up.
"That's not it, it's because everyone can't hold back a little and wants to kill Hohe Grassland as soon as possible to take revenge."
Kou Zhong also straightened up at this time, and said with a heavy expression.
Thinking of the situation of those compatriots in the army, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's mood couldn't help but be a little low.
More than half of the people in the Northwest Army were Northwesterners, and they were bullied by the Huhe Grassland before Gao Tianlai came, and almost everyone had a blood feud with the nomads on the Hohe Grassland.
Therefore, by this time, the atmosphere in the Northwest Army has become somewhat unbearable.
"Rest assured, it's time to settle down."
Gao Tian looked at the endless fields in the distance and said coldly.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other, feeling the powerful momentum emanating from Gao Tian's body, and a look of worship and respect flashed in their eyes.
……………… October of the third year of the Heavenly Mandate.
The Northwest Army began to mobilize on a large scale, with 60,000 Shura troops, 50,000 Northwest Army, and 20,000 grassland iron cavalry subdued by the heavens, a total of 130,000 people, marching towards the only city on the Hohe grassland, the dragon court of the Hohe grassland-Kakuyasa.
Kakuyasa, in the Huhe Prairie language, is the place where the sun god landed.
On the side of the Hu tribe in the Hohe grassland, perhaps they were broken by Gao Tian, or they wanted to drag down the supply line of the Northwest Army.
Therefore, the Hu did not come to fight, nor did they use their best running tactics, but the whole clan retreated to Kakuyasa, seemingly preparing to play an offensive and defensive battle with Gao Tian.
"I didn't, these Hu people are stupid, and they actually play offensive and defensive warfare with our regular army?"
The Hu people of the Huhe grassland have always been the great enemies of summer, and now that they suddenly encounter this situation, summer can't help but feel a thick humiliation.
He actually regarded these bastards and soft-bastards as great enemies, and wasted so many years, which made him, who has always been arrogant, a little unbearable.
Although the generals in the big tent also laughed at the self-destruction of the Hu clan, no one dared to speak, and even Wang Qing was pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Summer's position in the Northwest Army is second only to Gao Tian, and it is the founder of the Northwest Army.
Therefore, all the generals of the Northwest Army respect Xia very much, and now they naturally dare not speak.
"It may be that they want to drag down our logistics, but they didn't expect that we have chariots and the food of the army to move with the army."
Gao Tiantian's green tendons were about to burst out, and he hurriedly comforted.
After hearing Gao Tian's words, Summer's look finally got better.
Against cavalry, the chariot formation is very important.
Wear thick wooden planks on the car, and have hooks and loops at the front and rear of the car.
Usually the car can carry arrows, food and grass, but also can carry armor to save the soldier's physical strength, retreat can also carry the wounded, once encountered the enemy horse, it only takes a moment, can be the end of the chariot hook and loop together, lined up in a circle of cover.
The above is mostly equipped with standard training crossbow archers, under the continuous fire, its arrows are like rain, and there are even auxiliaries below to push it, although slow, but it can also be carried out, if the enemy is close, the soldier can also use the spear to stab the enemy from the gap in the prepared ground.
Although this kind of vehicle is good, there are three points to pay attention to, the first point is that it can only move slowly, not quickly pursued.
The second is that it is not easy to manufacture and the price is very high.
Finally, it must be in a relatively flat place, so that the vehicle can be used to the best effect.
These are still recalled by Gao Tian after recovering his memory.
This kind of chariot, in the memories of the high heavens, when Mercury ascended to the Ming Dynasty, in the battle with the Mongols, it was this kind of chariot, and it was established that the Mongol iron cavalry often had to pay several times or even ten times the casualties in order to consume the ammunition of the chariot battalion and then annihilate it.
It is because of this powerful firepower of the Cheying that since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Mongolia has been forced to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and even the title of Genghis Khan must be canonized by the son of tomorrow, which can be described as a prominent moment.
