Chapter 111: Frustration
"Stupid!" General Hodder, who was observing the battle from a distance, saw that the Dali Thousand Cavalry was in a predicament, and scolded secretly, and then ordered the herald beside him: "Order the Dali Thousand Cavalry to disperse in small teams, attack by hunting, and tell it that if it can't win in this way, it doesn't need to come back!"
A regular wolf howl sounded from the wolf cavalry camp, and the Dali Thousand Cavalry who heard the wolf howl quickly changed their tactics. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoNearly 1,000 wolf cavalry cavalry scattered into several squads, the squads on both sides accelerated forward, and the middle squad maintained a uniform speed hanging behind the Mongolian light cavalry, no longer initiating a charge, always staying outside the range of the Mongolian light cavalry's bow and arrow, and a half-moon-shaped hunting circle slowly covered the Mongolian light cavalry that was constantly galloping on horseback.
Borchi and the Mongolian light cavalry under his command are also Mongolian people who were born in the steppe and grew up on horseback since childhood, and they are naturally familiar with this hunting tactic of the wolf cavalry, how can they be fooled like this?
With Borchi's whistle, the Mongol light cavalry also split into two teams and charged towards the two wolf cavalry squads on both sides. Seeing those hateful cavalry charging towards him, the two wolf cavalry squads responsible for the flank were overjoyed, the opponent only had half of his own troops, and dared to take the initiative to provoke the charge, which was simply a military merit for nothing. At the moment, the wolf cavalry squads on the left and right sides were ready to engage in battle, but unfortunately things were not as they thought.
The Mongol light cavalry estimated that after the two sides entered the range of the bow and arrow, they turned their horses around to face the enemy on the side, and at the same time the bows and arrows in their hands were tied to the string and fired several arrows in a row, and then they turned their horses' heads and quickly disengaged. The two Mongolian light horsemen on the left and right galloped in opposite directions, crossed over, exchanged opponents with each other, and ran to the wolf cavalry team opposite.
Captain Dali, who fell far behind the Mongolian light cavalry, saw the Mongolian light cavalry attacking the side hunting team, secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly urged several wolf cavalry teams around him to speed up the hunt. Unfortunately, when the wolf cavalry squads arrived, the two squads on the left and right had been crippled by the Mongol light cavalry, leaving only piles of corpses covered with bows and arrows.
The Mongol light cavalry only needed to change their horses and accelerate again, and then threw off the wolf cavalry that was chasing after them again. In the face of this kind of opponent who couldn't catch up and couldn't be encircled, Dali Qiancai's mouth opened slightly, and his face was bitter, he finally knew why the previous Qiancai team was beaten so badly.
Sensing that the tactics of these Mongol light cavalry were extremely effective in restraining the wolf cavalry, General Hodder's brows were furrowed so much that he could almost kill a fly. "Order, Dali's Thousand Cavalry retreat! The whole army will be stationed in the human town, rest and recuperate, and fight again tomorrow!"
Hearing the retreating wolf howl, Captain Dali's heart seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but have the idea that he finally didn't have to face those human cavalry. In a short period of pursuit, the spirit of the wolf cavalry was completely destroyed by the Mongolian light cavalry.
It's a pity that what Captain Dali didn't expect was that the retreat was not so easy. Finding that the wolf cavalry chasing behind him turned around and wanted to run, Borchi did not agree, and the Mongolian light cavalry turned at a large angle, let go of the horse speed and chased behind the wolf cavalry.
The sound of whizzing arrows breaking through the air, the sound of puffing arrows only entering the flesh, and the sad sound of the whining wolf in the Dali thousand cavalry continue to sound, and now the situation between the offensive and defensive sides is reversed, under the pursuit of the Mongolian light cavalry, the Dali thousand cavalry is like a straw being harvested one by one, and every salvo will cut off a layer of the thousand cavalry. There was no need for the wolf cavalry to urge them, and the blood wolves all ran desperately as if they were risking their lives, for fear that the arrows that seemed to have been cursed by the devil would only fall on their heads.
Even if there are some wolf cavalry who are not weaker than others in their own riding and archery skills, they take off their bows and arrows, and want to give these hateful humans a counterattack, but they are helpless to find that the range of their riding bows is not comparable to that of the other party, and occasionally a few arrows are shot in front of the Mongolian light cavalry, and they will be easily dodged by these skilled human beings, and even some humans use their hands to catch the arrows as if they are deliberately playing, and then shoot it back with their backhands.
After finally escaping into the town of Beiyuan, with the help of the bow and arrow threat of some wolf cavalry archers arranged on the rooftops, he escaped the pursuit of the Mongolian light cavalry, and the commander of Dali's thousand cavalry wanted to cry without tears in the face of his remaining half of the thousand cavalry.
The Mongol light horsemen, led by Borchi, circled the town, and when they saw that the wolf cavalry had no advantage in the town, they turned their horses and returned to the castle, and after several battles, they continued to replenish their arrows and restore their horsepower. Fortunately, Leo brought some ordnance from the village of Haruna, and there was a lot of arrows in stock, which was enough for these Mongol light cavalry to consume.
When General Hodder came to Dali's cavalry, he personally removed arrows and bandaged the wounds of the wolf cavalry with arrow wounds, and inquired in detail about the engagement between the two sides.
"Dear General Hodder, it's not that we are unwilling to use our lives, it's really that those despicable and cowardly humans are too cunning and refuse to engage us head-on, they will only hurt people with arrows, and our riding bow range is not comparable to the other party, we can only be beaten but unable to fight back, this battle is really too embarrassing!" The wolf cavalryman who was personally treated by General Hod recounted to General Hod with a touched face, and involuntarily complained twice.
"Well, I see, I have seen your performance today, you are all brave and good guys, worthy of the prestige of our wolf clan, today's battle is my command of the defeat and I don't blame you!" General Hodder patted the wolf cavalryman on the shoulder affectionately and encouraged it loudly.
"You guys have a good rest, tomorrow we have a more difficult battle, don't forget that we came to the Human Empire this time, the purpose is to turn the world upside down here and relieve the pressure on our army!
"The beast god is above, my beast clan will be prosperous and invincible!" The wolf cavalry, encouraged by General Hodder, raised their arms excitedly and roared, sweeping away the decadence of today's defeat.
After General Hodder left, he summoned two thousand cavalry commanders and a group of captains to discuss the military situation.
"In today's battle, everyone has seen that the tactics used by those humans are extremely clever, they are simply a complete copy of the safari tactics of my orc centaurs, and they are even more proficient than those tenacious centaurs, which is really tricky!" General Hod sighed as soon as he spoke.
"General don't worry, didn't that human traitor also say it, this kind of cavalry is only a hundred people, the hunting tactics you used today should be able to deal with them, but those wolf cubs have not fought against this kind of opponent, so they are not very suitable for their tactics, as long as we arrange more squads, disperse the round-up, and limit their hunting range, we can naturally wipe them out!" Seeing that Darley's Thousand Cavalry Commander looked dejected, another Thousand Cavalry Commander stood up and said to General Hodder.
"Yes, we can arrange a few more teams to ambush in the nearby mountains and grasslands, and attack them by surprise, and we will definitely get miraculous results!" The Captain of the Broken Ears also stood up, boldly proposing his own idea.
"Very good, everyone, this is the state that our wolf warriors should be, even if the opponent's tactics restrain us, what if we work together, fight in groups, and cooperate with our comrades-in-arms around us, even the lion clan and the tiger clan will not dare to despise us, let alone mere humans!" said Huo Erli, the general of the Hod clan, loudly.
"I order! Immediately send scouts, gather several nearby thousand cavalry teams, and surround and attack Baron Leo's castle tomorrow, and definitely not give those human light horses a chance to roam around!"
"Obey!" the wolf cavalry officers replied in unison.
