Volume 1 Chapter 883 Mounted Shooting
The first round of impact caused the enemy's formation to be chaotic, more than 1,000 people were killed on the spot, and the Zhenxi army, which was hit or knocked away by the biochemical cavalry, had almost no casualties, and all of them died immediately.
"Dashuai, this can't be done. ”
Seeing that the ironclad heavy cavalry circled, speeding up the horse, and rushing into the array of the siege troops for the second time, in the large array of the Chinese army in the distance, a senior general whispered beside He Wanli: "This heavy cavalry is really unusual, it can't be measured by common sense at all, just rush and kill a few times, and our 10,000 people will be all over." ”
The location of He Wanli and the others was on higher ground, and it was clear that the knights on the other side had almost no losses, and only a dozen war horses fell into the formation. Moreover, they did not give the besieging party a respite at all, and in the blink of an eye increased the speed of their horses, and rushed into it a second time.
"Marshal, let me lead the army to attack"
The bearded general, who had a wild personality, turned red, pointed to the front and shouted: "I can't let them go around in circles like this, I will lead an army to block them, so that they can't get out of the formation, even if it is 20,000 ants, they can gnaw them to the bones."
Add another 10,000 people to block the way out of the heavy cavalry, so that they can't get out, they can only fight hand-to-hand on the spot, with the advantage of numbers, no matter how they pile up, they can be piled to death.
It seems to be a feasible strategy, but it was categorically rejected by He Wanli: "If you can't disperse the big formation, the formation will self-destruct, if you can't trap them, it will inevitably impact the place where our army's marshal flag is." ”
He Wanli can see through Luo Chong's thoughts, although the ironclad heavy cavalry is outrageously strong, but the number is too small, and he does not dare to rush into the 30,000-strong army formation, he wishes that our army will disperse its forces and send another army to rush over, so that the original corps formation is missing a corner, and it is difficult to make up for it in a short time, so he will see the opportunity to rush to the battle.
It sounds quite ridiculous that a cavalry team of hundreds of people can attack the large array of tens of thousands of troops, but if he breaks down his handsome banner, or even captures or kills himself, the Zhenxi army will inevitably be in turmoil, and then there will be a situation of destruction in which the whole army will be scattered.
Of course, He Wanli can't treat that siege team as an abandoned pawn, after all, it is a full 10,000 people, one-fifth of the military strength of the Zhenxi Army.
"Mingjin Collects Troops"
He Wanli immediately made a decision: let that team withdraw, while they were not yet lost.
The army is all in one place, and this is the best strategy to deal with them. At present, it is the only way.
The bearded general bowed his head and said nothing, but his face turned black. The commander's orders have always been one and the same, and it is useless to say anything by himself.
Moreover, he did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to block the enemy 100% with his troops. That heavy cavalry is really too terrifying, with strength, speed, agility, impact, and defense...... It can be said that there is no shortage of everything, and there has never been such a terrifying cavalry in the world.
If he can't stop it, what if they overwhelm the handsome formation? He didn't dare to risk the safety of the big handsome.
Mingjin withdraws his troops
Just now, Luo Chong's ironclad heavy cavalry completed the second assault and killed more than 1,000 enemy troops again, leaving only more than 6,000 people from the original siege team of 10,000.
With such heavy losses, this Zhenxi army was not crushed, as long as the Chinese army in the rear was still stable, their military spirit was unbreakable.
Hearing the signal of 'retreating, more than 6,000 people immediately moved, and under the cover of dozens of shield carts, they began to slowly retreat.
Retreating without chaos shows the extremely outstanding psychological quality of the whole army.
Although the turtle shell formed by the heavy shield car is not very tight, for Luo Chong, no matter which angle he hits in, the biochemical cavalry will hit several shield vehicles head-on, not to mention the loss of more than a dozen biochemical warriors.
It is easy to rush in, but the speed is slower when breaking through, and it will be blocked by several shield carts in the other direction, and if you are surrounded by thousands of people, the casualties will be even greater. After all, the biochemical warrior is still flesh and blood, and if his head is cut off, he will also die, and the reason that ants bite and kill elephants still works.
Fight the number of people, we can't fight them, it's not cost-effective.
"Retreated, great, they retreated"
On the city wall, the soldiers of the garrison camp of Dengzhou City were cheering, they couldn't think so much, only to see that tens of thousands of enemy troops had to withdraw honestly under the impact of our ironclad heavy cavalry, leaving corpses all over the ground.
"Sure enough, it's a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, unpredictable."
Governor Chen was also smiling, although he knew that this was only a temporary retreat of the Zhenxi Army, but it was enough to prove that our General Luo was really quite remarkable.
"yes, yes. ”
Deng Hai was also rejoicing, but sighed again: "There are still too few soldiers and horses, General Luo is reluctant to consume, otherwise, he can completely disperse these 10,000 people in one go, and there will be very few who can escape back."
"Not really. ”
Governor Chen nodded vigorously: "If there are thousands of soldiers and horses like this, it will be invincible in the world, and the Zhenxi Army and the Mobei Army, in the eyes of General Luo, are just a touch of collapse."
"Thousands of soldiers?"
Deng Hai's eyes flickered, and he secretly said in his heart: "A few days ago, there were only 200 people, but now it is nearly 1,000 people, how did General Luo's family soldiers come out? With this speed of army expansion, it won't be long before a few thousand soldiers and horses, right?"
Deng Hai has been secretly paying attention to the changes in this ironclad heavy cavalry, watching the riverside camp from 200 people, to 300 people, 500 people, and nearly 1,000 people...... Such a rapid expansion can be called the Song Dynasty people who know Luo Chong best.
Where do these horses and soldiers come from?
Deng Hai vaguely guessed that it was probably related to the Xia army's two thousand light cavalry. It is reported that on that day in Wuyun Gorge, Luo Chong captured at least 1,000 Xia soldiers and more than 2,000 war horses, and escorted them to Erlong Mountain
The captives were never heard from since, but his ironclad cavalry grew.
How can there be no correlation between the two.
"Suppose, I guessed correctly, after this battle, more Xia troops were captured, will General Luo be able to conjure more soldiers and horses in the short term?"
Deng Hai's heart was shocked, and he was a little secretly frightened: "Such a powerful soldier and horse will only fight more and more, or it won't be long before he can sweep the world, right?"
General Luo
Deng Hai has already made up his mind that he must hug General Luo's big thick legs, and his future depends on him......
On the battlefield, the siege team of more than 6,000 people had retreated into the large formation of the Zhenxi Army, and the entire formation echoed each other, and there were no flaws.
Of course, there are flaws, this statement is only relative, even if there are no flaws, Luo Chong will find a way to make a flaw for it.
In the face of a large array of more than 30,000 people, it is not advisable to attack strongly, so let's ......
"Take the Bow"
Luo Chong gave a mental command to all the cyborg fighters.
Hula
Five hundred biochemical warriors, their movements were uniform, and they took out longbows from the long leather bags on the back of the horses behind them, all of which were four-stone strong bows, and it took at least five hundred catties of strength to pull them apart once, and if they wanted to completely control this kind of strong bow, they had to have the strength of a thousand catties.
The sharp arrows shot by the four-stone bow can penetrate heavy armor at a distance of 200 meters, and triple armor at a distance of 100 meters. This data is purely for its strength, whether it can shoot accurately, that is the level of the archer.
But today, Luo Chong does not require all biochemical soldiers to be marksmen, as long as they can draw their bows and release arrows, shoot armor-piercing arrows one by one two hundred meters, and fall into the enemy formation.
There are pros and cons, 'no flaws, the enemy formation, means that the formation is dense, people are crowded, people are crowded, people are crowded, an arrow shoots past, and it is impossible to miss it.
The Zhenxi army is well-equipped, but not all of them are wearing heavy armor, most of them are iron-inlaid leather armor, even if they add the factor of personal martial arts, they can only resist the projectile of the two-stone bow and arrow at a distance of two hundred meters, and they will definitely not be able to withstand the terrifying penetration of the four-stone strong bow.
These 500 four-stone strong bows were collected by Luo Chong after patronizing more than a dozen armories in the Xia, Tang and Song dynasties.
The human beings in this world are nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, and qualified archers are equipped with two-stone crossbows as standard, but there are also a few strong soldiers who can pull out stronger bows and crossbows, so three-stone, four-stone, five-stone, and even six-stone strong bows are equipped in the army, but the higher you go, the smaller the number.
According to the bow-making process of the Tang and Song dynasties, a thousand-pound eight-stone strong bow is considered to be the most extreme, no matter how strong it is, even if there are fierce generals who can pull it apart with deep internal force, there are no qualified raw materials to make such an exaggerated bow body and bowstring.
The strength of the biochemical warriors is more than forty points at the lowest, and there is no problem in pulling out the eight-stone strong bow, but due to the extremely small number of strong bows with more than five stones in each armory, it is already quite difficult to gather five hundred four-stone ones.
There are not too many strong bows in the planetary world on Mogina's side, and the powerful barbarian soldiers are not good at archery, and the races that are good at shooting are all agile, and most of them are mainly three-stone bows and arrows.
Luo Chong didn't want to spoil the bubble because of this, so forget it, four stones are four stones, which is almost enough
Riding and shooting
Our heavy cavalry can be used as light cavalry and rangers, and it is still feasible to play cavalry and archery.
Thundered......
Five hundred heavy horses, thundering again, followed Luo Chong's nightmare horse slowly accelerated, and when it was 200 meters away from the enemy formation, the speed was controlled at about 40 kilometers per hour.
This time, the biochemical cavalry did not rush into battle stunned, but around the enemy formation, keeping a distance of two hundred meters and running non-stop.
"Oops"
The generals of the Zhenxi Army, including He Wanli, all exclaimed in their hearts, they were all clear-eyed people, and they could see at a glance that the enemy's heavy cavalry had taken out four-stone strong bows, how could they not guess their intentions.
"Shoot"
Luo Chong took the lead in firing arrows with a terrifying strong bow of five thousand catties, and wherever he shot, the biochemical knights also shot.

Five hundred and one sharp arrows broke away from the bowstring, and there was no need for a parabola at all, almost with the powerful force of flying in a straight line into the dense enemy formation.
"Ahhh
The screams continued to rise, and the soldiers in the west of the town were so dense that there were almost no arrows, and every armor-piercing arrow could pierce the human body.
The soldiers are lined up in a neat formation, and the room for moving and dodging each other is quite limited, and no matter how strong the eyesight is, no matter how strong the eyesight is, it will not be able to instantly judge whether one of them is shooting at you, and dodging indiscriminately will only cause people to touch people, and people will hit people, leading to greater chaos.
"Stand up for me, slash the scrambler"
The officers, with their superior personal martial arts, were able to maintain their composure, and they were all shouting hoarsely to maintain order.
"Archer, release the arrows"
There was also a general who ordered the archers in the queue to counterattack, and immediately a large rain of arrows rose into the air and fell towards the galloping biochemical cavalry.
But this is a two-stone bow and arrow projectile, and even if it can shoot the fast-moving biochemical cavalry from a distance of 200 meters, it will not be able to penetrate the heavy armor on their bodies, and it can only be clanged and unable to fall.

The biochemical cavalry surrounded the giant enemy formation, and in the gallop, according to Luo Chong's archery instructions, they drew their bows and arrows on horseback for the second time, and 500 armor-piercing arrows fell into another queue of the Zhenxi army......
