MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1081 Crushing experience!
Chapter 1081 Experience crushing!
The strongest cavalry in the past 200 years is the iron cavalry when the Xianbei Yuwen Department entered the customs from outside the customs. With only a few hundred thousand cavalry, they swept the entire Jiangbei and became a famous empire in the Central Plains.
Until the end of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, even though the Xianbei nobles had degenerated to the point where it was difficult to mount their horses, the standard cavalry of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was still better than that of the Southern Jin Dynasty, but the cavalry could not defend the city, so Ye Sheng led a dozen or two hundred thousand infantry. , Abruptly scored into Yandu.
Up to now, it has been 40 or 50 years since the fall of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Whether it is cavalry and archery or the quality and quantity of the cavalry, the Jin Dynasty still has not caught up with the Northern Zhou Dynasty. There are 100,000 central banned troops, only 5,000 cavalry, and the quality is worrying.
Although these 5,000 cavalrymen can fight on horses, most of them can shoot arrows on horses, but the accuracy of shooting arrows on horses is far less than that of the Yuwen tribes in the north. They can only be used for maneuvering interference, far less than that of Yuwen. level of combat power.
But even so, it was enough.
After all, the imperial court sent them out, not to let them ride on horses and use crossbow arrows to kill the enemy, but to let them use the mobility of cavalry to throw the imperial thunder into the southwestern army formation.
Two thousand cavalry took the lead out of the city, but they were not in a hurry to charge. After the main force of the four Zhechong House was almost in place, the cavalry was divided into two groups, interspersed from both sides to the two flanks of the Southwest Army, ready to use the thunder. The formation of the scattered Southwest Army.
These people are all light and simple. In addition to bows and arrows, they each carry two to four Tianlei. Their task is to smoothly throw the Tianlei into the army formation of the Southwest Army and disrupt the Southwest. The formation of the army, so that the four frontal Zhechong houses can successfully break through the defense line of the Southwest Army and defeat these Southwest rebels in one fell swoop!
The cavalry on both sides entered the flanks of the Southwest Army smoothly. Because of the high mobility of the cavalry, the crossbow arrows on the front of the Southwest Army did not cause a lot of casualties to these cavalry, and only less than a hundred of the more than 2,000 cavalry were shot down by bows and arrows. , and most of the rest rushed to the flanks of the Southwest Army.
The one in charge of this cavalry was Chong'e, the second grandson of Chong Xuantong. He went to Yunzhou City after he was sixteen years old. This time, he returned to Beijing from Yunzhou City with his grandfather, taking care of his grandfather Chong Xuantong.
There are not many cavalrymen in the capital, but there are quite a few cavalrymen in Yunzhou City. Therefore, Zhong'e, a family member who has been on horseback for many years, is the commander of this cavalry.
He also brought five or six thunderbolts with him.
After rushed to the position of the two wings, Zonge immediately shouted: "Brothers, look for the gaps and interspersed in, don't fight after entering, withdraw immediately after losing Tianlei, and then stop the next interlude!"
After receiving his order, the more than 1,000 cavalry on the left flank immediately dispersed and charged towards the left flank of the Southwest Army. step distance.
At this time, thousands of people suddenly appeared in the army formation of the Southwest Army. Some of these people were holding strange iron pipes, some holding long bows. The sound, the longbow shot an arrow, and there was another loud noise, and the strange iron pipe also burst into flames!
Arrows, and lead bullets, shot at these forbidden cavalry!
Chong'e's face changed slightly, but he didn't panic. He shouted loudly: "Circle around, don't rush in in a straight line!"
There is absolutely no problem in putting this kind of simple combat order in the cavalry of the Yunzhou Army, but the cavalry of the Imperial Army is obviously not as good as the Yunzhou cavalry due to the lack of daily training. After receiving the order, although they can turn around, but The horse's speed dropped a lot at once.
Chen E saw gritted his teeth, and he yelled angrily: "The horse can't be slowed down, it can't be slowed down!"
The reason why cavalry is precious is because of their valuable mobility. Once they lose their speed on the battlefield, they lose everything.
After the first round of salvos of the Southwest Army, more than a thousand cavalry under Chong'e's command fell in unison by more than a hundred!
Most of them were shot by buckshot.
After all, most of the soldiers of this era would not panic in the face of bows and arrows, but in the face of fire guns they had never seen before, they had no experience and were directly knocked to the ground!
The gunmen of the Southwest Army have been systematically trained. Every time they shoot, they will be divided into three rows, and then let the front, middle, and rear three rows shoot in turn to offset the reloading time, so there is no salvo after the first round. After a while, the sound of the second round of salvos rang out!
"Boom boom boom!"
After the second round of salvos, dozens of these Custodian cavalry fell again!
After three rounds of salvos, at least 300 of the more than 1,000 cavalry led by Chong E were killed by bows and guns, but the speed that the cavalry was most proud of was also reflected at this time!
After three salvos, these cavalrymen have successfully rushed into the army formations on both flanks of the Southwest Army!
Chong'e inserted into the Southwest Army formation in the first echelon. His face was full of anger. He took out a thunderbolt from the bag at his waist.
At the same time, the other cavalry of the first echelon also successfully entered the army formation on the two flanks of the Southwest Army, ignited the thunder in their hands, and threw them into the army formation of the Southwest Army!
Tianlei's lead is rapidly igniting.
But these gunners and archers and crossbowmen didn't panic, even though the thunders thrown by the imperial court were sometimes only a dozen or even meters away from them!
There were generals of the Southwest Army who responded quickly, and they shouted loudly: "All down!"
"All down!"
That's the great benefit of experience.
The Southwest Army has been in contact with firearms for a long time than the imperial army. The earliest Hanzhou army was even fighting with firearms when they were eight years old in Taikang. After so many years, they have accumulated rich experience in firearms. At the same time, there is a lot of experience in dealing with firearms.
Of course, Li Xin also has a lot of credit for this. He personally taught the Southwest Army a lot of ways to deal with firearms.
When dealing with "earth bombs" like Tianlei, it is undoubtedly a very practical way to lie down for the first time. First of all, Tianlei, even if it is Tianlei in the southwest, as long as it is not thrown in the face, the first Time is also difficult to kill, most of which is secondary damage caused by the splash damage of the pottery.
Therefore, as long as you lie down on the spot, you can avoid the impact of the thunder and reduce your damage area.
After all, Tianlei's pottery shards are scattered radially, and it is impossible for them to fall from the sky.
With the explosion of the first round of thunder in the imperial court, only a few or a dozen of these lying down Southwest Army soldiers were seriously injured, and most of the rest were slightly injured or even unharmed. Approved for these imperial imperial guards.
"Boom boom boom!"
It was another three rounds of salvo, and the Imperial cavalry fell in a large area again!
Seeing that Tianlei was useless, Zhong'e's eyes were completely red, he threw the Tianlei in the bag aside, took out a long knife from his waist, waved his arms, and roared: "Brothers, don't throw Tianlei, with I will draw a knife and chop these rebels to death!"
"Hack these rebels!"
