Chapter 41

Thinking of this, Jiang He was both afraid and happy.

Not every cavalry can do the job of a scout, just as shooting an arrow on a horse is something that not everyone can do.

In fact, even among these nomadic tribes, those who can ride and shoot are elite. Similarly, those who can be used as sentinels are also elites with high skills.

Jiang He's own skills were so-so, and he was afraid at this moment, and decided not to be so reckless in the future.

But speaking of which, the weapons and armor that were changed in Xiao Guan this time are extremely sophisticated!

There are so many fine irons, don't say that you have seen it, but you have never heard of it. Equipped with so many new weapons, Jiang He is even more confident in winning the battle.

Of course, there are still a handful of people who can equip fish scale armor. However, each of his men had already been replaced with steel knives and spears......

Sure enough, the sacrificial wine did not deceive him, and only the Central Plains was the blessed land of Taishang.

He, who used to be just grazing on the grass, if he hadn't followed His Majesty, how could he see the true prosperity of this world?

When he first killed the Tuyuhun royal court, Jiang Hedu was already shocked by the wealth of the royal court.

But later, when he entered Tianshui and Jincheng, he was shocked again.

Although the Tuyuhun Royal Court is rich, it is still the same set of things on the grassland, at most there are more gold, silver and jewelry.

And among these big cities of the Han family, it is incomparably rich. Anything that is taken back to their tribe of cows and horses will be treated as a treasure......

And I've heard that it's nothing. The real rich place is still behind Xiao Pass, and there is a big city called Chang'an......

Originally, Jiang He didn't believe it much. But when he saw Xiao Guanzhong, he suddenly took out tens of thousands of catties of fine iron weapons and armor, as well as all kinds of piles of materials. He was completely convinced.

It's a pity that I didn't have a chance to go behind Xiao Guan to have a look......

Jiang He thought so. There was some loss in my heart, but it didn't matter. As long as he follows His Majesty and makes great contributions, as His Majesty's courtier, he will be able to live in Han Land in the future, and even live in that big city called Chang'an.

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang He's blood boiled, and he couldn't wait to immediately kill all the enemies in front of him.

"Captain, this guy who shot you with an arrow has been caught!"

In a moment, his guards underneath. A sentry who had already dragged an arrow from behind the horse came to Jiang He's side.

Rao is like this, the sentry detective still looked at Jiang He with unruly eyes, and opened his mouth to say a few words......

Jiang He didn't understand, but he also knew that this guy definitely didn't say anything good, and he was suddenly angry in his heart: "Drag him to death for me......"

"Yes!" the guard galloped on his horse, and the sentry behind him was dragged behind his horse, and in less than two miles it would become a mass of flesh that no one recognized......

There was a sulk. This Jiang He's heart gradually became a little more comfortable.

"Probe further and see if you can run into the enemy again......"

"Yes!" the two hundred cavalry swept away like the wind again, leaving behind a dozen corpses.

It was a long time before a vulture fell.

War for air supremacy...... Oh no. It started with a scramble between sentinels.

Soon it began to escalate and developed into small battles between light cavalry.

Almost all the time, around Liu Shengzhi's army. There were several, or more than a dozen small cavalry battles.

The Hu coalition army was quite large. There are naturally a lot of cavalry under his command.

But don't forget. Liu Shengzhi's command. But not all of them were Han troops, almost half of them were cavalry organized by various ethnic groups in Qiang.

These herdsmen and warriors who grew up on the plateau were also brave and good at fighting, and even more amazing in physical strength.

Maybe the time to organize is too short, so that they are not very good at large-scale operations, inexperienced. But in such a small-scale ranger fight, these Qiang warriors are not afraid.

Each side sent thousands of scouts into small teams to fight continuously over a vast area of land within a radius of 100 miles.

In just two or three days, the scouts sent by Liu Shengzhi had already suffered three or four thousand casualties.

These can be sent out as scouts and cavalry, and they are the most elite warriors of each tribe, and they can be described as heavy losses.

However, Yao Xing and the other allied forces also suffered heavy losses. Under such strangulation, they also didn't take advantage!

That's not all, if you can't defeat these scouts, then you won't be able to break Liu Shengzhi's eyes, and a series of tactics behind you won't be able to be used.

Otherwise, he could only watch Liu Shengzhi slowly retreat to Anding County under the cover of these light horses, fight according to the city, and even retreat directly to Xiaoguan.

Another way is to have a decisive battle with the whole army before Liu Shengzhi retreats!

When the Hu coalition found out that it was impossible to directly compress the sentinels of Liu Shengzhi's army, they were unwilling to let Liu Shengzhi go. They only have one way to fight Liu Shengzhi......

Yao Shuode and Tuoba Jue glanced at each other, and they both saw the look in each other's eyes.

"Decisive battle!"

"Decisive battle!"

Liu Shengzhi smiled, the Hu coalition wanted to fight a decisive battle in his arms.

After a brutal strangulation battle with losses of more than 3,000 in the past few days, the morale of those Qiang Yi servants under Liu Shengzhi's command has dropped significantly.

If it is a period of time, the loss is a little higher. These Qiang cavalry will not be able to be used, and the Han army will be in danger at that time......

In fact, these Qiang Yiyi have been able to fight like this, which is far beyond Liu Shengzhi's expectations.

These have only been entangled for a few months, and it is already quite good that the righteous army has only been able to fight to this level after a simple reorganization.

In the era of cold weapons, one percent of casualties were enough to make a unit lose morale and combat effectiveness.

Those who can hold out until thirty percent of the casualties are already the elite of the elite.

Only in modern times, the army armed with national nationalism is nothing more than that...... The army that can hold out until half of the casualties is already the best of the best soldiers.

Liu Shengzhi couldn't have asked for more!

Moreover, Qiang Yiyi on Liu Shengzhi's side was crippled. In fact, the Hu coalition army was not much better, and they probably had to pay the same three or four thousand casualties......

These are all their own troops, and the casualties of Liu Shengzhi's men are just righteous obedience.

This is also why Liu Shengzhi went around such a big circle, coming out of the road, first subduing tens of thousands of righteous cavalry, and then killing Longyou. Instead of going directly out of the most important reason...... (To be continued.) )
