Chapter 344: Training
Xu Jing didn't answer, just nodded slightly.
"You two boys, come here!"
You'an mistakenly thought that Xu Jing didn't believe this, and shouted at the two young generals.
"What instructions does Your Majesty have?"
The two knelt in front of Xu Jing and asked excitedly.
If you can show off your muscles in front of this great emperor.
When I get home, I'm afraid that my old father will be able to smile from ear to ear.
"Very good, but I'll have to see again."
Xu Jing nodded slightly, and did not give the two of them a will.
The two little guys showed a little lost look on their faces, and they thought that they could get Xu Jing's will.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, accompanied by a violent drum sound, the soldiers present all looked solemn and waited for the battle.
"Your Majesty, do you want to change places?"
"This Mobei cavalry is here."
You'an heard the sound of drums, raised his voice and asked Xu Jing.
"This Mobei cavalry is here like this?"
Xu Jing was dumbfounded.
I have heard that this Mobei army has always been warlike, and I never thought that they would appear here without the slightest cover-up.
"Naturally, these cavalry from Mobei came here, not randomly."
"They're all in training."
Youan nodded and replied.
"Training?"
Xu Jing's heart was shocked.
The matter of training troops in this area is indeed very different from that in the rest of Daqian.
Here, military training is actually actual combat!
"In this way, the number of soldiers who die in the barracks every year is probably quite a lot, right?"
Xu Jing looked serious and asked in a low voice.
"There are indeed a lot, I am afraid that there are 30,000 soldiers who die in the army a year."
"But your Majesty rest assured, this pension has not been deducted. And there was no forced conscription. ”
You'an nodded, her voice much lower.
"There's no way, this group of Mobei barbarians only respects the strong."
"If Yanmen Pass does not dare to engage in war with it, what awaits will be an even more terrifying large-scale invasion."
"It's better now, although tens of thousands of soldiers are lost every year, but it also protects the people in some areas from the horseshoe of Mobei."
Youan continued to speak.
Xu Jing looked cold and pointed to the high place of Yanmen Pass: "Go over there and take a look." ”
"Your Majesty, the sword has no eyes, if you let those barbarians know that you are in Jizhou right now, I'm afraid you will really attack in advance!"
Although You'an is simple, he is not stupid, he doesn't dare to let himself really go to the front line.
If something goes wrong with this majesty, the entire situation will be in turmoil.
"It's okay, there are two martial arts masters on the left and right, and those guys don't want to hurt me even if they have the ability to be immortals."
Xu Jing waved his hand, signaling that You'an didn't have to worry, and raised his legs and walked towards Yanmen Pass.
You'an sighed lightly, but he couldn't convince Xu Jing and accompanied Xu Jing to Yanmen Pass.
The closer he got to the sound of the drums of the city tower, the more Xu Jing felt that the blood in his body was constantly boiling.
Looking out, he saw an army standing three hundred steps away from Yanmen Pass.
"Hey! Which battalion is fighting with me today? Come out quickly! ”
Outside the Yanmen Pass, this group of Mobei cavalry let out a shout in front of them.
"In a hurry to die? For those of you, it's not enough to plug your teeth. ”
In the city tower, You'an responded loudly to this group of Mobei cavalry.
"This group of guys is not afraid of the Jizhou army pouring out?"
Xu Jing became more and more strange, where did this group of Mobei troops dare to approach the area of Yanmen Pass so closely.
Looking at the number of cavalry in the north of the desert, there are only about 1,000 people.
If you really want to send all the Mobei troops, I'm afraid that you will be able to make dumplings all at once.
"This group of Mobei barbarians is not stupid."
"They deliberately pulled these 300 steps to leave enough buffer zone."
"If Jizhou dispatches more than 1,000 troops, they will not hesitate to turn around and flee."
"If the Jizhou Iron Cavalry wants to catch up, it's impossible."
"If the number of people is less than 1,000, they can also attack extremely quickly, and completely cannibalize this small army with the fastest speed."
You'an patiently explained to Xu Jing.
"I see, these guys are smart."
Xu Jing nodded slightly.
"Let's go!"
In the Jizhou military camp, the two teams that also decided to fight.
It was the two battalions of Qi Sheng and Luo Tong.
The two of them left Yanmen Pass with the army and went straight out of the city.
Xu Jing stood on the high platform and watched quietly.
"Fight!"
When the two battalions arrived 200 paces away, the 1,000-strong Mobei cavalry did not give them any time to react, and immediately whipped their horses and charged forward with extreme speed.
And in the process, thousands of cavalry threw arrows one after another.
A hundred paces away was enough for them to shoot three rounds of arrows.
"So fast!"
Xu Jing was shocked by the Mobei cavalry's fighting style.
Compared with the various branches of the military of Daqian, each performing its own duties, this Mobei is more like a trick that is eaten all over the world.
With its high mobility and extremely fast projectile skills, it can weaken the enemy before it even engages with light cavalry.
If you encounter a pawn, it will be like a catastrophe!
"Knot!"
In the face of a series of projectiles, the two battalions did not hurry to accompany the commander with a low roar, and the foot soldiers raised their shields to block the arrows falling from the rain.
As for the cavalry, they turned over and dismounted, signaling the horses to half-crouch to avoid this rain of arrows.
"Isn't this self-severing your arms?"
Xu Jing frowned slightly, with such a combination of foot and horse, it was indeed possible to reach the projectile of the Mobei cavalry.
But in this way, the cavalry also gave up the mobility on which they depended.
Once in close combat, how can you counterattack?
"Your Majesty, might as well look down?"
You'an chuckled silently and motioned for Xu Jing to look down.
"Scatter!"
With a low roar, the distance of the Mobei cavalry was already within thirty paces.
The soldiers of the two battalions scattered in all directions, and the first to stand ahead were 500 foot soldiers.
As for the cavalry, they leaned back a little and pulled out the light crossbows they carried.
Within fifty steps, the crossbow arrows were extremely lethal, although they could only fire a salvo once, it was enough to make the Mobei cavalry suffer a lot of harassment.
"Slash!"
Luo Tong took the lead, taking the lead in rushing forward, and the foot soldiers behind him also moved forward.
When the horse's huge impact hit the shield, there were still many foot soldiers trampled and their faces covered in blood.
But the surviving soldiers did not see fear, and took out the simple knife they carried at their waists and slashed at the horse's leg.
"Kill!"
The cavalry took advantage of this moment to fight in the chaos.
After a while, the cavalry of the two sides fought together, and the foot soldiers were looking for opportunities to cut off the horse's legs between the melees, pulling the Mobei cavalry off their horses and killing them.
】
This chaotic battle lasted for an hour before the battle ended.
The remnants of the two or three hundred Mobei cavalry, who had lost their advantage, left their comrades and fled the scene.
The soldiers of the two battalions in Jizhou were not much better, and almost all of them were wounded.
Hundreds of foot soldiers died from horses' hooves, and no less than 200 cavalrymen died under the Mobei sickle.
"Tidy up, it's time to go back."
Luo Tong wiped the blood from his face and gasped for breath.
Xu Jing looked at the group of troops who were supporting each other and walking back towards Yanmen Pass, with a cold expression.
"It's worthy of being my big cadre border army, which really surprised me."
After a long time, Xu Jingfang spoke.
"Your Majesty's praise is much inferior to the Great Snow Dragon Rider."
You'an shook his head slightly, but the smugness on his face couldn't be concealed at all.
