226 Ginseng Hengdou turn 6
"Brother Stein!" Seeing the fate of the unfortunate men, one of the leaders of the northerners, who knew them well, was furious and furious, and kicked the horse in the belly of the horse under him, and rushed out to rescue them, yes, if it had not been for his brother Adair, who had not flapped his sword at him, he would have rushed out with his men.
"Adair! What are you doing? He exclaimed, the light cavalry were not many in number, and if they rushed together, they would have been able to get them back, he was sure......
"Then they've fallen for their tricks." Adair said, "Do you want us to die here together?" ”
"What?" He looked at his brother in surprise, and his voice immediately softened, "These people ...... Can these people destroy us? After he asked this, he thought for a moment, and then said, "They are only so many, although the weapons are strange and powerful, but they also look like mortals, we can divide half of the men and horses to save Stein and them." ”
"Half of the men to rescue Stein?" Adair replied, "Let the other half, who can barely guarantee that he does not fall off his horse, defend our baggage and prisoners on horseback?" Do you see how fast their horses run? Like the lightning of the gods, if we who are more good at riding horses go after them, will we be surrounded by the inside and out, or will we immediately turn around and attack our baggage? Brother, I know you value Stein for his courage and generosity, but I can't condemn you and all of us to the destruction of Stein because of his own mistakes. ”
"The half of the people left behind can dismount and form a formation to protect the baggage."
"Alas, alas, you see their speed too. Will they give you that time? Besides, haven't you noticed? The horse that first appeared in our field of vision. One horse had a triangular white spot on its buttocks, but it didn't appear on two occasions. ”
Adair's voice was very slight. This was only heard by a few leaders around him, and they all froze, "They...... Are they not the only ones? ”
"It's just speculation."
The man nicknamed Viper fell into thought, this unexpected appearance of the class really shocked him, Neustria did not have such a skilled cavalry, nor did the surrounding countries, and the horses they rode were also different from the horses that Adair and the others had plundered all the way from the pastures in advance, and the speed of the sprint and the flexibility to change direction were incomparable to the Neustrian horses they were riding.
What made him more fearful than horsemanship and horses was the excellent organization and discipline of these cavalrymen, and deserters were always despised. But "escape" is a university question, and thirty-six strategies are the best, and this move is not something that any army can perform, and an army that is a little less organized and disciplined, let alone retreat in a planned way, or even move a little back, will cause the whole army to collapse, and these cavalrymen do not care about their repeated challenges, inquiries, and scoldings - they do not care that the Neustrian cavalry of the past will be furious when they hear it, and they will not hesitate to disrupt their own formation to attack them. It's like not understanding them - just tease them at your own pace......
When the northerners formed a formation, they went, and when the northerners withdrew, they came. Once, twice, three times.
Some northerners made the same mistakes as the Neustrians of the past. When they rushed to attack, they immediately divided this group of reckless people. Like a pack of wolves pounce on a deer that has fallen behind...... It may seem funny to describe Stein, an eight-foot-tall battle-hardened man, but it's true. They were torn apart by the enemy like fawns after a struggle that could almost not be called resistance.
Since the appearance of these terrible unknown cavalry, the initiative of the entire battlefield has shifted.
And......
Adair wasn't the stupid aristocrat of Neustria, who would march without scouting, and he also placed sentry horses around the marching procession. Although the sentinel horses did not report the appearance of these cavalry, the northerners were not very passive at first, because the reconnaissance range of the sentinel horses was limited, and the speed of the pure cavalry team through the complex terrain was fast, and it was not surprising that the sentinel horses did not detect this cavalry. However, after seeing what these cavalry were capable of, he had every reason to believe that the sentry horses he had placed on the perimeter had been cleared by them.
Even if it is not cleared, let the infantry who will only sit on horseback compete with these real, should it be said to be excellent cavalry for mobility? That's not called a contest, that's called death.
So Adair can only say that he is guessing about the enemy's situation - no scout can scout the enemy situation for him, isn't it just a blind guess?
If you don't have scouts, you don't know how many enemies there are and what their movements are, and the enemy does, and this one-way transparency is dangerous, and Adair thinks that any commander with a little bit of brain knows it. A blind man fights a healthy man, can the blind man still take advantage?
What's more, this healthy man looked different from the traditional Neustrian cavalry, and he didn't have any symptoms of brain twitching at all......
"It doesn't matter if we ride or not, as long as we don't move, they don't move, they just stop us...... Their large forces are coming, probably infantry. After thinking about the shì in front of him, Adair said in a softer voice than before, "When those people are there, they will launch a general attack and tear us apart." ”
"Are they waiting for the infantry? You're kidding? One of his brothers asked, "Their infantry...... They wait for the infantry to come and launch a general attack on us? Oh gods, you mean, they're going to break through our battle formations with infantry? This is simply ridiculous! Do you think they didn't have a heavy cavalry to charge into battle? They don't lack horses, they don't lack weapons, look at their armor! Gravity cavalry is also missing a spear! Give each of them a spear and it's a heavy cavalry, and they need to wait for the infantry to come? ”
"Then why don't they add a spear to each of them?" Adair looked at the hussars surrounding him, who were scattered in the wilderness in twos and threes, as if they were grazing, but with Stein's precedent, Adair and the others knew that as soon as they moved, these hussars would rush at incredible speed, baring their fangs, "Or, do you think their knives are not good?" ”
"They...... Want to catch us all? "According to past experience, Neustrian infantry generally used this purpose: to take prisoners when the wind was blowing.
"Perhaps, we will meet infantry as incredible as these cavalry." Adair replied.
"Hiccup, are you kidding?" More than one leader asked.
"I hope it's a joke." (To be continued......)
