Chapter 245: Light Horse Tactics

Walked forward along the official road for more than ten miles, and came to a small slope, Fang Xiaoyu stopped the marching team, asked everyone to dismount, check the mounts, debug the bow and crossbow, and rest on the spot, and he came to the front of the slope and looked at the slope, the slope of this slope is not very steep, and the slope is not very long, just one or two hundred meters, but Fang Xiaoyu is pleased that the slope is very flat and open, which is very conducive to the cavalry outflanking.

Just as he was observing the terrain, Prince Shuo and Yongqi Gege also automatically followed, and after seeing the terrain, Prince Shuo couldn't help but ask Fang Xiaoyu: "Boy, should you decide to ambush the seventeenth road smoke and dust here?"

"Isn't it possible?"

Fang Xiaoyu looked very calm.

"Although I have never really led troops into battle, I still know some about the advantages of cavalry," Prince Shuo said. Compared with the infantry, the biggest advantage of the cavalry is that it is so impactful, so the speed must be raised when charging, but you look at the battlefield you choose is really not very good, first of all, this slope is too short, the king estimates that it is not a stone's throw away, I am afraid that the speed of this cavalry has not run away, it will rush to the end, the cavalry that loses its speed is basically the infantry on horseback, and it can't take much advantage in front of the infantry。 ”

Fang Xiaoyu gave a no: "No, that's it." ”

Prince Shuo's eyebrows locked slightly, this kid shouldn't float up because he was lucky to win a few battles, he thought so in his heart, and he couldn't help but pop up on his lips: "I said that your kid shouldn't have a hot head because he won one or two battles, and then he floated up, thinking that he was invincible in the world, right?"

Fang Xiaoyu was puzzled when he heard Prince Shuo's words: "Floated up, what do you mean?"

Prince Shuo's mouth pursed: "It's not floating, why did you choose to fight against the smoke and dust of the Seventeenth Road here?" You look at the terrain here, although the terrain under this slope is open, which is very conducive to cavalry combat, but there has to be a prerequisite, that is, you have to mention the speed of the horse first, but how can the cavalry without speed still impact the enemy's camp, according to the information sent back by Hidemi Nishizawa, the seventeenth road smoke and dust is the elite this time, the number can be more than thousands, but we are less than 100 people, with our number once we fall into the enemy's encirclement, even Sun Wu rebirth can not save our entire army from the end of annihilation. ”

As soon as Prince Shuo finished saying this, he found that Fang Xiaoyu was looking at him with a strange gaze.

"Lord, am I wrong?"

"It's a big mistake, to be honest, I really don't know how you have read the military books over the years, do you know what heavy cavalry is, what light cavalry is, and where are their respective advantages? The tactics of light cavalry are the pursuit of lightness and flexibility, advance and retreat freely, generally speaking, it is in the periphery of the attack, with bows and arrows and other long-range attack weapons to constantly shoot the enemy, in the movement to find a favorable fighter, once the fighter appears, pounce on it and bite the opponent fiercely, if there is no chance, then continue to attack it, until it has no temper, until the most favorable fighter appears, only to give it a fatal blow. ”

Prince Shuo couldn't help but say, "Won't people rush out to fight you?"

"In the final analysis, the light cavalry is what it pursues is speed, in the battle, in addition to bows and crossbows and arrows, all the things that affect the speed of the war horse will be thrown away, even if you want to fight with it, then you have to be agreed, otherwise you have to follow behind the people to swallow smoke and eat soil, if you stop chasing, people will return to continue to torture you, just like the year candy sticks to you, even if you don't die in the end, at least you have to peel off the skin. ”

Yongqi Gege said disdainfully: "This is simply a Laipi tactic, if you have the ability, you will rush out and do it with real swords and guns, even if you lose in the end, I also admire you as a hero, why do you use this Laipi tactics to make people look down on them in vain." ”

"Winning or losing, the loser never has the right to speak out loud, it is destined to only become a stepping stone for the winner," Fang Xiaoyu's words are simple: " At that time, Genghis Khan relied on this light cavalry tactics all over the Eurasian continent, and his light cavalry tactics were generally a walk, if you win, you will fight, if you can't win, you will leave, you ignore it, it will come back to attack you, in a word, it will make you completely collapse, listen to the older generation of people, the Mongols can fight on horseback for several days in a row, eat, drink, pull and retreat, all on horseback to solve, but unfortunately their secret skills have now become a sound. ”

Prince Shuo nodded, and then asked, "So the light cavalry is more powerful than the heavy cavalry?"

Fang Xiaoyu explained: "There is no strongest class of troops in this world, each class has its limitations, and there has never been a class of troops that can conquer the world. You have to use it flexibly, knowing that other people's people are dozens of times our people, you still stupidly bump up, don't hit the head and break the blood flow is weird, more importantly, in our team, there are many children of the Eight Banners heroes, these people are born with golden keys, they are all treasures of each family, they can't be hurt and can't touch, take these people to impact the camp of others, we don't do this kind of stupid thing, kill 10,000, self-damage 3,000, this is not just talking, if the average person dies, it will die, it's a big deal to increase the pension, but behind these people can stand a great god that we can't offend, you Shuo Wang Ye is the Tianhuang nobles of the dynasty, You can ignore the existence of these people, but I am a small court student, what to fight with those people, those great gods are not ordinary characters, but a great god, one by one the energy can be great, whatever one is to take it out, stomp your feet, shout a few voices, these four or nine cities have to shake the mountains, if they are interested in dealing with me, you say that I am a small court tribute, what to use to break hands with others, if it is not for fear of offending those people, do you think I will let those delicate and expensive Eight Banners uncles participate in it, that is not to cause trouble for myselfοΌŸβ€

Yongqi Gege said very proudly: "Don't be afraid, our Shuowang Mansion is protecting you." ”

Fang Xiaoyu was speechless in this regard: "Your Shuowang Mansion protects me, you can protect it, if your Shuowang Mansion really has so much energy, you shouldn't let those ginseng come in at the beginning, let those Eight Banner Masters join in, it's simply adding to the chaos, you said that this side is suppressing bandits, I have to take care of them on the other hand, do you say this is a human thing? In order to ensure the safety of these people, I have to let them be equipped with bows and crossbows and war horses, in order to let them stand at a distance and shoot the enemy from afar without having to contact the enemy?"

"Excuses, in the final analysis, are excuses," Yongqi Gege said disdainfully: "In the final analysis, it's not a Laipi tactic, it's a hero, you just rush up and do it with other people's real swords and guns, so even if you lose, I also admire you for being a hero, with this kind of Laipi tactics, what is this, not to mention that it is a hero on the rivers and lakes, even I look down on you, if this matter spreads to the rivers and lakes, even our Shuowangfu will have to be despised by you." ”

Who knew that as soon as she finished saying this, Prince Shuo was folding her platform: "If you look down on it, you will look down on it, our Shuo Wangfu is not a gangster on the rivers and lakes, let alone those heroes and heroes on the rivers and lakes, even if they can afford it, what's the use? Everything in this world is fake, fame and fortune are fake, love and hatred are also fake, only life is true." ”

Yongqi Gege was very annoyed and said, "Amma, which side are you on?"

"Listen to Amma, yes," Prince Shuo said to Yongqi with a smile: "Everything is fake in this world, this person is only alive is the most important thing, only by living, can you enjoy glory and wealth, fame and fortune, Brocade clothes and food, if the life is gone, all this will be empty, more importantly, our family should be neatly together is true, no one is missing, this is more important than anything else, as for the heroes, we don't get out of the limelight, like you said that if you don't agree with a word, you will lead people to rush up stupidly, we don't do this kind of stupid thing, that is not called bandit meritorious service, it is called sending people to death, giving people heads, we don't make this kind of low-level mistake. ”

Yongqi Gege hated iron and steel very much: "Can't you fight for some anger, you do this, my daughter feels very ashamed." ”

Prince Shuo comforted his daughter and said: "Silly girl, it's better to be embarrassed than to lose your own life, according to what you say, when Cao Cao took 830,000 to fight with Zhou Yu Chibi, Zhou Yu should lead his army out to fight Cao Cao alone, and play what kind of fire attack, I estimate that if he does that, he will not let his family be ravaged into scum, how can there be a later Three Kingdoms, so we have to use our brains in this fight, don't rush stupidly at every turn." ”

Although Yongqi Gege felt that Ama was right, he was not convinced at all: "Anyway, if you do this, my daughter feels very ashamed." ”

Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Actually, you should think so, the bandit brigade is coming, their men and horses are more than ten times larger than us, they are not playing heads-up with us at all, isn't it normal for the weak side to use some strategy?"

Yongqi Gege said indignantly: "Anyway, I will look down on you if you use conspiracy and trickery." ”

Then she turned her horse and walked away alone.

In this regard, Prince Shuo only smiled bitterly: "Don't pay attention to her, I guess this girl must have been a child who didn't pay attention to the door and squeezed her head, and she will be fine after a while, what about you or how to fight this battle?"

"How to fight, how do I know, if the enemy sees us and rushes up to fight us regardless of the ground, let's quickly retreat, keep a distance from the other party, shoot the enemy in close quarters with a bow and crossbow, if they are lined up under the slope, let's rush down, draw a half-arc, and shoot the enemy with a bow and crossbow, now let everyone load all the arrow boxes of the repeater with arrows, don't wait until you rush down, only to find that your crossbow box is empty, by the way, and let our spies out, don't let people hit us by surprise. ”

Prince Shuo naturally nodded in this regard: "Don't worry, I released Hidemi Nishizawa early in the morning, and she will come back to tell us as soon as there is news." ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "But you'd better let a few more out, don't put all your hopes on one person." ”
