Chapter 830: Defending instead of attacking
The battle formation is not able to exert his due strength, under the constant impact of the tip of the arrow, one after another Mongolian cavalry has become a skirmisher, and without the protection of the left and right flanks, it has become a lamb to be slaughtered, and often can not rush out of dozens of meters, blood will be splashed on the body, and several knives will be injured or killed.
In contrast, the Wind Chasing Cavalry Regiment with the tip of an arrow is like a nail wedged into the enemy camp, scattering the enemy and killing them one by one. Even if some of the soldiers temporarily lost contact with the team, they still had a three-three system of warfare, as long as there were three cavalry, they could exert the power of a small charging formation, even with ten straight cavalry can resist for a while. If there are too few opponents, it will directly be a sword and a dead person, and the battle will be invincible.
On the other side, Su He, the head of the Tatar cavalry regiment, also became the tip of the strongest arrow, and in terms of personal strength, he was not as good as chasing the wind, and even stronger in the first line, leading the Tatar cavalry, rampage, as if going deep into the realm of no man, cutting down one team after another, one after another Mongolian cavalry under the horse, and constantly expanding the results.
"Mingjin retreats." Fan Yuhai, who was riding on the horse, had deep eyes, and when he looked carefully, he could still see the surprise, seeing that there were not many cavalry left and there was no power to attack, he hurriedly gave the order to retreat.
The Mongolian cavalry who survived the battlefield were like being amnestied, and when they heard the sound of Mingjin, they quickly retreated from the battlefield, but even the battle formation was broken, and now it is not so easy to escape, in the process of retreating, not only have to endure the entanglement of the mercenary cavalry, but also after finally killing out of the battle formation, they will inevitably suffer from long-range shooting with bows and arrows. In this escape, at least hundreds of cavalrymen were shot with bows and arrows, and their fleeing horses fell to their deaths, dying on the road that had already seen the hope of life.
In the end, the 2,000 cavalry sent out fled back with less than 500 men, and almost all of them were wounded, and their faces flashed with horror. It's just this battle, some soldiers' fighting spirit has been broken, and no such person dares to guarantee that if they are sent to the battlefield, they will not do their best.
In contrast, the reinforced cavalry regiment and the Tatar regiment suffered less than 100 casualties, and most of them were wounded, and most of them were slightly wounded, and they only needed a little bandaging before they could quickly return to the battlefield.
This is the strength of the mercenaries, of course, the strength of the arrow point formation, of course, because most of the veterans and people who can fight well this time are sent, but the victory is real in front of everyone, and others can't question anything.
Thanks to the fact that this is the combat power that can only be formed by veterans of a hundred battles, and fortunately, there is a certain proportion of new recruits and original prisoners in the mercenary army on the opposite side, otherwise, this battle is going on, and there is really no hope.
Chasing the wind and Su He led the army back, and they were greeted by the loud congratulations and cheers of other comrades-in-arms, and for a while, the two regiment commanders, including the soldiers who followed the battle, were all happy. At this time, Yang Chendong's voice on the white dragon horse sounded at the right time, "All those who have made meritorious contributions to the battle just now will be noted down and rewarded again." ”
"The god of war is mighty! The god of war is mighty! Suddenly, the sound of chanting resounded on the land, and after a while, the voice was getting higher and higher, not only the veterans of a hundred battles were cheering, but also the recruits who had just enlisted for a few days, and the former prisoners who had just been transferred from the construction team to the army all shouted one by one.
At this moment, they are rapidly integrating into the collective of mercenaries, and they are feeling what it means to be both prosperous and lossy.
The shouts from this side reached the opposite side, and the faces of the Mongol cavalry became very ugly. In the past, there were some people who underestimated the battle of the capital city a few days ago, thinking that the legendary mercenaries with strong combat power were like that. But after witnessing this scene just now, they quickly closed their mouths. In contrast, they realized how lucky and difficult the previous victory was.
Of course, there are also many generals' eyes on Fan Yuhai, who is riding on a horse and his face remains unchanged. In the last battle, everyone listened to his advice, and it was the mercenaries who were severely damaged. Now that the god of war himself has appeared, they expect their generals to come up with better countermeasures.
Fan Yuhai's face remained unchanged, but there were already huge waves in his heart. He had fought with Yang Chendong before, directly or indirectly more than once, but it was just an infantry battle, and the opponent relied on an advanced repeating musket with a long range of attacks. But the battle in front of him was completely hard-to-hard, and the defeat was so ugly and so fast, it was really a bit beyond his expectations.
But a famous general is a famous general after all, and Fan Yuhai will not be discouraged by a temporary failure. He looked at the mercenary on the other side, and had a new plan in his heart. After all, there are still few of you, and the proportion of veterans of a hundred battles is too low, which is the weakness of the other party. In a small-scale battle, you may be able to rely on these advantages to win, but what about a large-scale battle? Even if it is a one-to-two casualty, or even higher, he can afford to pay it, on the contrary, the mercenaries will not be able to stand it, and once that time comes, it will be time for him to fight back with all his might.
"Pass the order, send out five thousand cavalry on the left and right, impact!" The thought quickly flashed through his mind, and finally turned into words and spit out from Fan Yuhai's mouth.
Liu Duo and Chamubala were stunned for a moment when they heard this military order, and then they understood what the general meant, and immediately clenched their fists and went down to transfer the cavalry.
Sud Khan handed over the command of the battlefield to Fan Yuhai, and he had the power to transfer more than 40,000 troops. It's just that there are only 5,000 people on the left and right, and it's really not a big deal, it's only half an hour later, and the cavalry is mobilized. Then, under the leadership of their respective generals, they began to move slowly forward.
Through the binoculars, seeing everything in the eyes of the Mongolian cavalry, Yang Chendong smiled, "Inform everyone to defend with all their might, once the enemy rushes into the range of muskets, there is no need to be polite." If the opponent retreats, the cavalry charges, beckoning them with bows and arrows. ”
Fan Yuhai wants to use the tactics of the sea of people to survive himself, which is indeed a good move. But it also depends on whether Yang Chendong is willing to play with him, even if he has the advantage of advanced muskets in his hand, why not take advantage of it, what kind of cavalry hedge will a fool engage in one-on-one with you? I had a trick with you before, but it was just to boost morale, that is, the goal has been reached, and then it's time to abuse the other party. The order flag danced, and the officers who were still waiting for the commander to send troops, after seeing the order clearly, had to suppress the idea of rushing forward, and began to watch the performance of the musketeers quietly. Of course, they did not do nothing, but ordered the warriors below to prepare their bows and arrows, and if the enemy was defeated, they would chase after them and beat the water dogs.
Inside the capital.
The news of the defeat of the Mongols in the first battle had reached the city, and it was obvious that some people could see the stunned look on their faces, and some people kept shaking their heads down. Hara Ruo deliberately went to walk around the street, and then returned to the temporary mansion where his father lived with a happy face, and shouted as soon as he entered here, "Father, father, Fan Yuhai's back-and-forth guy has been defeated, hehe, I'll just say, who does he think he is, how can he be the opponent of the God of War." ”
From the bottom of his heart, Hara Ruochu naturally hated Yang Chendong. If it weren't for this person, he might now be the son-in-law of the Khan of the Mobei Mongol tribe. But he has a lot of hatred for Fan Yuhai in his heart.
Although Fan Yuhai never said that he was a subordinate of Agadorji from beginning to end, in the eyes of this wonderful father and son, he always thought so. Now that the two enemies are fighting together, they are happy to see who wins and who loses.
In the courtyard, Agadorji was basking in the sun, sitting in a chair with a very relaxed expression.
Although there was a big battle outside, but there was a high roof when the sky fell, Agadorji was not worried at all. On the contrary, he waited for the Sud Khan to come and beg him to send troops? When that time comes, he will definitely open his mouth.
Seeing his really ugly son yelling into the courtyard, Agadorji shook his head helplessly, his own son, his ability is not high, his temper is not small, I really don't know how he will survive when he is gone.
Hara Ruode seemed to just want to vent his feelings, and did not have to have his father respond to his shouts. Seeing that his goal was achieved, he turned around and left, "Father, it's okay, I'm going to have fun, it's really annoying to stay in this courtyard." ”
The so-called fun is naturally to find women. The original defender of the capital city, Muren, fled, but many people did not flee with him, and the last fire only burned the eastern city, and the other three cities were not affected, not only that, but even some industries not only existed, because there were nearly 60,000 Mongolian cavalry in the city, and some industries became more lively than before.
The pleasure that Hara is going to find is naturally a matter of men and women. Knowing that his son's appearance is too ugly, and he has not yet started a family, Agadorji has always been resigned to this matter. It's just that considering that the city is not very safe, he still nodded lightly to the chief of the guard beside him, and followed out of the mansion when he became a team of ten guards, they were going to protect the safety of the son.
But what they didn't know was that as Harraja was walking into the streets, behind him, behind his guards, someone was watching it closely.
