Chapter 1815 I also have armored cavalry
White Wolf Mountain.
Taishi Ci immediately stood on the hillside, looking at the Xianbei people gushing out along the Yushui River Valley, with calm eyes.
Nearly 10,000 elite cavalry had already formed a formation, waiting for Taishici's order. Except for the battle flag being blown by the wind, the entire position was silent, and even the war horses were waiting for the beginning of the battle, but occasionally shook their necks and moved their horse's hooves.
Wu Yan gasped and followed Yan Zhi up the hillside and came to Taishici. While walking, he looked at Taishici's personal guard camp, feeling a little scared. Among a group of Han knights, he saw many Xianbei faces, and Taishici's side was no exception.
"I've seen the governor." Wu Yan stopped, bowed and smiled with his face.
Taishi Ci sat upright on the horse's back, looking at Wu Yan condescendingly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Yan Zhi had already reported the relevant situation, and he knew that the Lord Wuhuan had been frightened.
"So it was King Khanlu." Taishici chuckled softly. "Or, should I call you Shanyu?"
"I dare not, I dare not." Wu Yan blushed and shook his hands repeatedly. King Khan Lu was called by them, and the Chanyu was granted by Yuan Shao. These two titles were not good words in front of Taishi Ci, and they would die if they were not done well.
"Your reputation is not right, your words are not right, and you will be rewarded if you are lost." Taishi Ci waved his hand. "Your pasture is outside the Youbeiping Frontier, so follow the prefect of Youbeiping. If you can achieve success, I will ask for rewards for you."
"Thank you, Governor." Wu Yan felt relieved, took two steps back, bowed again, and turned to follow Yan Zhi. He wiped the oily sweat from his forehead and his legs were a little weak. Although Taishici's subordinates were elite and their morale was indeed high, their troops were limited, with less than 10,000 people, and there were many Xianbei people. How could they fight this battle? Queji had 40,000 to 50,000 people. What if the situation was unfavorable and these Xianbei people rebeled at the time of war?
"Are you scared?" Yan Zhi was very relaxed. With three exciting victory as the basis, he believed that Taishici was not a reckless person. Since he dared to fight, he would definitely be sure to win. As for how Taishici conquered the Xianbei people, that was Taishici's business. Xianbei people had no ethnic concepts, and it was common for different tribes to fight each other. They fought for profit. Taishici had the sharpest sword in his hand and the rich Wu Hou behind him. It should not be difficult. One hand was money and the other hand, how many barbarians could not be conquered in the world?
"No, no, since you brothers all believe in the Grand Historian, I naturally believe in him too." Wu Yanqiang smiled, but couldn't hide the cold sweat on his forehead. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he had regretted it. If he had known that Taishi Ci had only such a small amount of troops, he would never have come to reinforce himself. It would be enough to send a little coach to deal with it.
Yan Zhi deliberately saw Wu Yan's joke but did not explain it. He knew that Taishici had a bad impression of Wu Yan, but he was not very clear about the specific reason. Wu Yan did too many stupid things, so who knew which one violated Taishici's taboo?
They came to Gongsun Xu's position together. Gongsun Xu sat on the horse's back and glanced at Wu Yan, not even paying attention to him. He just pointed behind him and signaled that Wu Yan would lead his men and horses to line up behind him. When Gongsun Zan was alive, he had seen Wu Yan and knew that this Khan Lu King was not a kind person. If he did not have strong force to subdue him, let alone looking at his flattering smile, he might not give you a good face.
Gongsun Xu chatted with Yan Zhi for a few words. Although he had been divided into different camps and had some celebrations, he is now under Taishici's command. After several battles, Yan Rou made contributions and was deeply trusted by Taishici. Yan Zhi appeased the Wuhuan in the three counties and stabilized these Wuhuan people, and was also a person who made contributions.
While they were talking, the Xianbei people on the hillside kept gathering and setting up formations under the slope, and more and more people were. Although they were far away and could not see clearly, from the perspective of the formation, these should be the elite among the Xianbei people and the knights of the Pegasus tribe.
Gongsun Xu waved his hand. "You go back to the formation and look at the beast Wuyan, don't let him cause trouble."
"Worried that he would stab you in the back?" Yan Zhi joked.
Gongsun Xu sneered: "I hope he has the courage."
Yan Zhi laughed and said goodbye to Gongsun Xu. After not seeing each other for a few years, Gongsun Xu has changed a lot. He is no longer the playboy who relies on Gongsun Zan to show his majesty. His words and deeds are majestic. He returns to Wuyan's position, and Wuyan blinks his eyes and looks at Gongsun Xu in the distance. "Brother Yan, Gongsun Prefect... what do you say?"
"It's nothing, let you wait with peace of mind, and then you can just follow it and rush." Yan Zhicong took the reins of the horse from his servant, turned over the horse, and sighed again. "This time, I have a big loss. For such an important battle, I can only stand aside and watch. I can't follow the Grand Historian to rush forward. I can see the power of the Armored Cavalry. It's a pity, it's a pity."
"Armored Cavalry?" Wu Yan was stunned for a moment, stretched his neck, and looked around. "Is there an armored Cavalry under the command of the Grand Historian?"
"Don't worry, you'll see it right away."
While speaking, the sound of war drums sounded in the direction of the central army, the battle flags shaking, and nearly 10,000 soldiers shouted in unison, like thunder thunder on the ground, with amazing momentum.
"Break! Break! Break!"
Amid the shouting, a dull sound became louder and more neat. The war horse felt the vibration of the ground under its feet, raised its head and stepped on its feet, and was full of fighting spirit. Wu Yan had to tie the reins tightly and control the mount. He stared at the direction of the central army, only saw the central army's battle flag shaking a few times, and soon disappeared under the hillside. Immediately afterwards, the rumbling sound of horse hooves gradually drifted away and rushed down the hillside. Although he did not see the shadow of the armored cavalry, Wu Yan was still shocked. The heavy sound of horse hooves must be the armored cavalry. Judging from the range of the sound, Taishici not only had armored cavalry, but also had a large number.
No wonder he was able to defeat the Xianbei people. It turned out that he had such a powerful weapon.
Wu Yan felt itchy and wanted to squeeze in front to see the bravery of the armored cavalry, but Gongsun Xu occupied the hillside and had not yet started, Wu Yan could not squeeze in front, so he could only prick up his ears and listen, trying to imagine the scene of the armored cavalry breaking into the formation. He had just walked along the way and had seen the exquisiteness of the armored cavalry under Taishici's army. The armored cavalry is a heavy weapon among the cavalry. It should be more exquisite than the armored cavalry he saw, and it is definitely not comparable to the rags of the Xianbei people.
The Xianbei people also have armored cavalry. I wonder if Que Ji was brought out this time and if he would be sent to the battlefield.
Que Ji raised his head and looked at the iron cavalry rushing down the hillside, and was both surprised and happy.
What was shocked was that Taishi Ci not only had armored cavalry, but also had a large number, with a total of four or five hundred, which was more than his armored cavalry. This time he met an opponent. What was happy was that his troops were far superior to Taishi Ci. No matter how brave these armored cavalry were, they would eventually become his spoils. With these excellent horse armor made by the people of the Central Plains, he would have no opponents on the grassland in the future.
Perhaps this is the beginning of the Eastern Xianbei dominating the grassland. Without Mijia, Suli's constraints, and without the idiot who overestimates himself and regards himself as a king, the Eastern Xianbei can finally unite and advance and retreat together.
Although he was the strongest tribal lord in the Eastern Xianbei region, with nearly 30,000 knights and the only three hundred cavalry in the Eastern Xianbei region, he was not strong enough to crush everyone. This time, Taishi Ci defeated Mijia, Suli, and Huaitou, which was equivalent to helping him get rid of three opponents. He became the only remaining tribal lord in the Eastern Xianbei region, and then gathered the remnants of Mijia and others who were defeated, increasing more than 10,000 cavalry. Even compared with the adults in the central and western regions, he had the power to fight.
The only regret is that Taishici came too fast and occupied favorable terrain in front of him, accelerating along the hillside, and reaching the ideal speed when he reached the hillside. However, his armored cavalry did not have enough space to accelerate, so he could only wait for Taishici's armored cavalry to rush into the valley and launch an attack from the side. The space in the valley is limited, and there are no less than 40,000 to 50,000 people, and his subordinates do not have so many elite knights, so he can only arrange more than 20,000 strong people to fight, including the 300 armored cavalry that he cared for as much as his eyes.
But today he doesn't have to hide his strength. Only the armored cavalry can deal with the armored cavalry. As long as he can defeat Taishi Ci, all the costs are worth it.
Que Ji raised his hand and ordered the armored cavalry to attack.
The sound of trumpets followed by waves, spreading like waves. The three hundred Xianbei armored cavalry began to charge. Instead of facing the Han army armored cavalry head-on, they attacked from the side. The lengthened attack line not only gave them enough time to accelerate, but also allowed them to attack the rear of the Han army armored cavalry. In the case of a slight lack of force, this is the most beneficial tactic for them.
In a cavalry duel, speed is the key. If the speed is insufficient, there is not enough impact, and it is difficult to turn when the speed is fast. The horse armor is heavy, and the armored cavalry is more difficult to change direction than ordinary knights. Once the predetermined speed is reached, it is very difficult to turn again, and even if there is a cliff ahead, it cannot stop.
The horse armor of the Xianbei knights may not be as good as the horse armor of the Han army knights, but the riding skills of the Xianbei knights have obvious advantages, and there is no doubt that the ability to grasp the fighter jets is. The moment when the Han army accelerated, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Que Ji's mouth, and he wanted to make these Han army cavalry come and go without returning.
But the next scene made Que Ji's smile solidify. When the Xianbei Armored Cavalry rushed out of the formation and reached the speed of charge, the moment he was about to contact the Han Army Armored Cavalry, the Han Army Armored Cavalry accelerated again, rushed towards his central army, and at the same time, he threw away the Xianbei Armored Cavalry who was rushing behind him.
The horse's hooves rose and fell, and the sound of hooves rumbled. The Han army's armored cavalry, which were both in the armor, was getting closer and closer. Countless cold eyes passed through the holes in the armor and fell on Que Ji's face, making him shivering involuntarily.
How is this possible? What kind of war horse is the Han army riding? How can it accelerate in this situation? This is not the speed that the armored cavalry can have. Even if the Xianbei Light Cavalry wearing leather armor is not absolutely necessary, it will not charge at this speed, not to mention that both the knights and war horses are wearing heavy armor.
Could it be that the armor of the Han army is really as strong as the legendary, but also light and hard, and even the armored cavalry can accelerate freely like ordinary cavalry?
Que Ji's mind was blank. (The Little Overlord of the Three Kingdoms
