It is impossible for the movement of soldiers and horses not to alarm the city.

Deng Rong in the sub-city didn't know that Deng Aihou alleged that he was an impostor, but he had already discovered that Yun Ziya had run out of the city.

If Deng Rong doesn't know what his son wants to do now, then he is not too stupid.

Deng Rong immediately launched a mobilization order, asking the leaders of the Hao clan to quickly deploy troops and enter the sub-city to support!

Whether it is the main city of Iwakura or the branch city, the food stored in it is enough to last for several years.

On the Iwakura territory around Lingbao, the sound of trumpets continued to cut through the sky, and on the land of ice and snow, warriors dressed in family heirloom armor, some armed with spears, swords and swords, and some carried longbows, rushed towards the castle under the leadership of the lords.

On this frozen earth, the killing aura faintly soared into the sky.

In the Iwakura territory, the population is only hundreds of thousands, and the soldiers involved in this civil war are of course not many.

But even these small-scale battles of the order of magnitude of a thousand made the entire territory permeate with a strong killing intent.

In romance novels, it is common to have exaggerated plots that break a million in one ride, but the momentum generated by the gathering of a million people is only afraid that it can shock the storyteller's heart and make him unable to speak.

When well-trained soldiers gather together, they will naturally radiate a strong fighting spirit, which leads to the sky and the earth. As mighty as a river, no one can be!

On the grounds of crusading against the rebellious son Deng Aihou, Deng Rong also began to quickly gather his own people.

However, when Deng Rong got the news, Deng Aihou had already begun to mobilize, and this time difference made Deng Rong a beat slower.

Deng Aihou mobilized 2,500 regular samurai and 6,000 militiamen, but Deng Rong only had time to gather 1,000 samurai and 1,000 militiamen into the castle.

When more leaders of the wealthy clans with distant territories rushed to the vicinity of the city, they found that Deng Aihou's men and horses had surrounded the city.

If there are enough commanders among these wealthy clan leaders, they can gather the soldiers and horses blocking the city and attack them inside and outside. However, these people were hastily gathered and did not belong to each other, and it was impossible to gather so quickly.

Seeing that the opportunity was quick, he hurriedly returned to the territory with his subordinates, as if nothing had happened. Seeing that the opportunity was slow, he was still watching nearby, and was sent by Deng Aihou to patrol several cavalry teams at the bottom of the mountain, and he immediately collapsed and retreated.

There are even more smart people who know the trend of the times, and immediately enter Deng Aihou's main formation alone, express their intentions, and then join the besieging troops.

The besieging force soon swelled to 10,000 men. The militia wore inexpensive cotton armor, while the regular samurai had their own leather or iron armor.

Whether it is leather armor or iron armor, it is not an ordinary material. The cattle used to make the armor need to be fed with low-grade spiritual grass containing spiritual power, and after slaughtering, the cowhide is peeled off to make battle armor, which is far stronger than the ordinary nitrate cowhide, and a set of armor can be passed down for many generations. The iron armor is also inlaid with strange and precious stones, which are induced by the force of the samurai itself, and receive the effect of integrating human armor.

As for the strength of the effect, it is directly proportional to the cost of auxiliary materials, compared with iron armor and leather armor, it cannot be said that one side is stronger than the other, it can only be said that the defense of leather armor with the same cost is not lost to iron armor, and it is much lighter, but the fit between iron armor and warriors is much higher, which can increase the strength of warriors.

Therefore, the light infantry in leather armor is suitable for skirmishing tactics and harassment tactics, while the heavy infantry in iron armor is more suitable for formation combat.

Crossbowmen generally chose leather armor for the convenience of their movements. Due to the high load of the horses mounted by the monks, the cavalry generally wore iron armor to increase their combat effectiveness, and the heavy iron armor could also increase the strength of the impact.

There are two gates in the city, and now they are all formed into a phalanx by Deng Aihou with elite infantry, and they are tightly surrounded.

Although it was only a small battle, Wu Feng also felt the momentum exuded from the crowd, the dense team, almost impossible to see, everyone's uniforms exuded a fierce battle spirit, and they rushed straight into the sky.

There are only 10,000 people, most of whom are still rabble, and they have such momentum.

In front of the infantry phalanx, there is a half-moon-shaped archery formation protruding towards the city gate, and once someone kills from the city, ten thousand arrows will be fired in unison. If the enemy rushes to the front, the archers will naturally retreat into the formation, and the infantry will come forward to engage the battle.

Deng Aihou said to Wu Feng: "Little Brother Xie, you can watch the battle in this Chinese army." ”

Wu Feng shook his head and said, "Although Xie Mou's cultivation is low, he is also willing to be a pawn and fight bravely to kill the enemy." ”

Deng Aihou clapped his hands and said, "Okay!" After finishing speaking, he called Song Shannei, as well as the two Lizheng Hongmeng and Qin Yu under Wu Feng's command, and said: "You will follow General Zhao Mancha, who will lead one hundred and fifty elite sword soldiers. ”

The four of them entered the Zhao Man tea formation together.

It is true that these 150 people all use knives as weapons, but because they bring their own weapons, the weapons are different, the styles are different, and the long and short knives are mixed together.

The military system of Iwakura Hall is really too flawed.

Deng Aihou was about to launch an order for the militiamen to go up first to fill the moat, as well as drive siege weapons such as ladders and arrow towers, but the high shouts of the heralds instantly broke through the Chinese army: "Report, the enemy cavalry has come out of the city!"

The slopes of the hills on which Iwakura Castle and the sub-castles are located are not too steep, and the cavalry can rush out of the castle and use the slope of the hillside to increase the impact force.

"About fifty horsemen. Deng Aihou quickly made a judgment: "There must be cavalry rushing out in that direction, tell Sanshi to be on guard!"

The one who attacked the other gate was Deng Sanshi, the son of Deng Aihou. The clever layout of the divided city allows the troops from the two gates to enjoy a condescending advantage.

Cavalry is the most suitable type of force for an orderly assault formation, as long as the use of extremely high mobility to disrupt the enemy's formation, it may induce the enemy to trample on each other, and the subsequent troops can also follow the charge. In this way, it is possible to do more with less. Therefore, even in an area like Yuzhou, where horses are lacking, large and small sects must train a certain number of cavalry.

The cavalry streamed out of the gates and soon spread out on the hillside, forming a sparse formation.

I saw the cavalry leader shouting: "I will break through the enemy's ten thousand troops with a surprise cavalry attack and win the first victory!"

Deng Aihou jumped out of the Chinese army, landed in the archers, and shouted: "Archers, shoot!"

He did not command in the center of the formation, but personally led the archers, and even held a large golden bow, mounted a sharp arrow, and shot towards the cavalry.

No matter what Deng Aihou's own ability is, being able to take the lead is indeed called bravery.

Hundreds of archers set up arrows at the same time, and the arrows rained down like a dense rain.

The sharp arrow shot by Deng Aihou bloomed with golden brilliance, directly hitting a cavalryman, only to see him hit an arrow in the chest, and even the people and horses were surrounded by gold, and exploded violently, turning into blood flowers fluttering in the sky!

Deng Aihou's subordinates applauded one after another, and said, "The hall master is a good hero martial arts!"

However, the cavalry galloped like lightning, and the arrows flying in the sky fell into the air.

These hundreds of archers lacked training, and the fifty horsemen killed were Deng Rong's direct guards, and everyone cultivated to the point of unity of men and horses, rushing like lightning, and their combat power was good!

Deng Aihou was about to lead the archers to retreat from the corridor in the rear infantry phalanx and launch a second round of shooting, when he saw the cavalry captain roar angrily: "Huh! Sons, let them see the bravery of the cavalry!"

The phantoms of countless war horses flickered in an instant, and the fifty cavalry seemed to have turned into thousands of troops and horses in an instant, all over the mountains!

"This is a tactic -- an assault!" someone shouted: "I have such a strong fighting spirit just after I have been killed, it is enough to launch a tactic of war!"

"Even if it is a beginner tactic, if practiced properly, it can exert good power. Dai Xiaolou's cavalry was well trained. Deng Aihou said lightly, it turned out that the cavalry captain was named Dai Xiaolou.

The phantom dissipated, and the surging cavalry team had already approached in a few breaths, and gathered again from the sparse formation, and began to charge!

Each knight and his horse glowed with a snow-white glow, which was a godsend. All their spirits seemed to be connected together, like a whole torrent of steel, crushing towards the retreating archers in front of the formation!

The surging dust was splashed by the horses' hooves, like a landslide and the ground cracked, and swept down towards the army.

Wu Feng was in the infantry phalanx behind the flank, thinking secretly in his heart.

The primary cavalry method of warfare, "Assault", has such momentum. And Middle-earth is known for its strong cavalry tactics, among which there are famous ones, one is the White Dragon True Dance of the Northern Yan Female Jie Shang Qingying, and the other is the fierce fire and majestic wind of the four generals of the Wind Forest Volcano under the command of Ma Boyong!

I don't know what earth-shattering power those two war methods should have?
