Chapter 118: Xiao Cavalry Battalion!
The 138,000 summon points once again refreshed the new high of Chu Jiang's summon points, and so many summon points were enough to summon a small army.
Ordering Taichung, Chu Jiang looked at the two rosters in his hand, the names with normal colors on them had been summoned, and the gray ones had not been summoned.
Counting the number of summoning points, Chu Jiang set his eyes on the Xiao cavalry battalion, the right military guard of the Tang Dynasty, which was a large army composed of cavalry and infantry, and a quarter of the soldiers in it were cavalry.
Before, there were not enough summoning points, Chu Jiang summoned all the infantry, and the cavalry only summoned five partial generals plus forty opponents, and now it is time to summon some cavalry troops.
There are many grasslands in the north, and this is the world of cavalry after all!
The Fifth Army of the Right Armed Guard, 20,000 cavalry battalions in each army, each cavalry battalion has 5,000 soldiers, including 200 soldiers, 25 flag officers, 5 captains, and 1 general.
Chu Jiang calculated for a moment in his heart, and then directly summoned two hundred cavalry team leaders, fifty cavalry flag officers, and five cavalry captains, a total of two hundred late days of the day after tomorrow, fifty-five innate realms, and a total of 112,500 summon points.
As Chu Jiang's mind moved, the summoning points on the book changed from six digits to five digits, leaving only 25,500 summon points.
A trace of pain flashed on Chu Jiang's face, the fifty-five innate masters summoned this time, there were basically no late congenital masters, all of them were in the early and middle congenital stages, and the number of people in the early innate stage was extremely large.
Summoning these flag officers, captains, and summoning the late stage of the innate general is a price, although Chu Jiang had expected it, he still couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart. However, there is no way to do this, what Chu Jiang wants is an organized cavalry squad, an elite army, not an ordinary master.
The fundamental difference between the army and the idle masters lies in the number and the prohibition of orders, as long as the number is large enough, it can be ordered and prohibited, and it is not afraid of death, it can be regarded as a qualified army.
However, in order to enforce orders and prohibitions, then it is necessary to have a strong command system, from the top partial generals to the captains, to the flag officers, and the team is in these areas, and there is a command system at this level in order to allow the army to exert its powerful strength.
These people summoned by Chu Jiang happened to be all the military attaches above the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, all the officers and soldiers were familiar people, and there was no shortage of officials at all levels, and the command system from top to bottom was perfect, and they could definitely give full play to the advantages of the army.
After summoning these, Chu Jiang did not use the remaining summoning points, and left the point of the general platform directly.
"My lord, the Northern Barbarian army is here!" Not long after Chu Jiang returned from Dianjiangtai, a soldier hurriedly ran into the camp tent and said.
Chu Jiang's eyes suddenly became sharp, the Northern Barbarian army finally came, thanks to the merits of Jinyiwei, when the Northern Barbarian army arrived at Liangshan Pass, Chu Jiang had already received the news.
Beichuan City, where the Chu River is located, is the third line of defense, two hundred miles away from the Beiliang Pass at the front, five hours, it should be the Northern Barbarian cavalry, and the infantry should still be on the road.
Even if you abandon the baggage and march at full speed, most of the troops in a large army like the Beiban are ordinary people, and the daily travel of 100 miles is already the limit, and the speed may be even slower, the distance of 200 miles, to say the least, will take three days.
However, even if he knew that it was only the cavalry coming, Chu Jiang did not dare to slack off, and rushed towards the city wall with Cheng Yanjin, Chen Gong, and the eight late congenital generals who stayed in the military town.
War has been a major event since ancient times, and when a large army comes, Chu Jiang, the chief officer of the military town, will go to check it no matter what.
Standing on the city wall, looking at the Northern Barbarian army in the distance, as Chu Jiang guessed, a cavalry team of 100 people was wandering thousands of meters away from the military town, neither attacking nor leaving, just wandering around the periphery of the military town, obviously to watch the army in the town.
And in the distance, with the powerful vision of the Innate Realm, I could vaguely see a large number of cavalry heading south, pressing towards the last line of defense like a wave!
"There are still smart people in the Beiban, and this plan is quite good!" Chen Gong on the side spoke.
"It's really a good idea to only encircle and not attack, and concentrate on the last line of defense." Cheng Yanjin on the side opened his mouth and agreed.
The three-hundred-mile fortress in the north and the four lines of defense, in the final analysis, are still to resist the northern barbarians, not to let the northern barbarians invade the northern border in the south, saying that there are four lines of defense, but in fact, the most important thing is the last line of defense.
Because the front three lines of defense can be bypassed, the three lines of defense are said to be lines, in fact, they are scattered cities and military towns, which can be bypassed, only the last line of defense is built by the mountains, blocking all the southbound passages, and the army can not go over the mountains, can only storm the city.
As long as the last line of defense is broken, the northern barbarian army will be able to drive straight into the north and plunder the people of the north at will. Of course, the role of the first three lines of defense is still very large, once the Beiban bypasses the first three lines of defense and goes all out to attack the last line of defense, then this grain and grass is basically placed under the Great Yan Knife.
The Northern Barbarians sent a large army to guard the city, which is indeed a way, but if you want to implement this method, the premise is that the Northern Barbarians have a large number of soldiers to swallow the major cities along the way, and stop all the large armies that go out of the city.
However, this method is not a small risk, in case one of them can't be stopped, and a cavalry is rushed out by Dayan, the grain transport team will definitely suffer, and the grain transport team is burned by the Dayan cavalry every year.
However, those are only a few after all, with the Northern Barbarian army surrounded by the edge of the city, there are not many cavalry that can rush out, and the loss is within the acceptance range of the Northern Barbarians, so this tactic of the Northern Barbarians has continued.
"Monitor closely, if there is any abnormality, report it as soon as possible!" Chu Jiang glanced into the distance and immediately turned to leave.
"Yes!" The military attache guarding the city clasped his fists and saluted.
Chu Jiang had no intention of dealing with these barbarians at this time, although there was only a hundred-man cavalry outside, it was still easy to watch a military town, and on the grassland, the combat effectiveness of the strongest cavalry was exerted to the extreme.
Not only is the combat effectiveness strong, completely crushing the infantry, but also the speed, with this hundred cavalry, the C-shaped military town without cavalry is completely helpless against the northern barbarians in front of them, and they can't even go out of the city to report the news, and the two-legged ones can't run four-legged ones after all.
Unless Chu Jiang releases the cavalry summoned just now, he can definitely easily destroy the cavalry in front of him, but now is not the time to summon the cavalry battalion, a large number of cavalry from the north are still heading south, and if he rashly releases the cavalry battalion, it is likely that he will be surrounded and killed by tens of thousands of cavalry.
When the infantry arrives and a large number of troops go south to the last line of defense, it will be the real beginning of this big battle!
