Chapter 780: The First Wave of Confrontation (1)

The infantry phalanx composed of 8,000 people is a big joke in the eyes of the Han, and the Murwei people will never dare to say it, but the horse control technology is the survival skill of every Murwei person, how can there be no war horses to ride?

"Boss, could this be a conspiracy of the Black Domain?" The old man riding on a jujube red war horse was puzzled.

The fourth elder on the side laughed out loud, the appearance of the people in the black domain was too sudden, but he also heard a lot of news, this time the western part of the ridge suddenly went south, and he was the first to propose it by himself, and he got the consent of the boss Han, and gathered more than eighty percent of the troops in the western part of the ridge, ready to swallow the black city in one bite.

"Tricks! In front of our brothers, what kind of conspiracy can the people of the Black Domain have, the third child is too worried! ”

Yu Han is not like the third and fourth children, as the heir of the western part of the mountain, his first consideration is the prestige in the tribe, if he does not have enough prestige in the tribe, even if he is the eldest son and wants to inherit the position of the big leader, it is impossible.

Murwei is based on strength, which is completely different from the primogeniture system in the Central Plains, and every ambitious guy will do whatever it takes to suppress other competitors, and for a long time, no one thought there was anything wrong with doing so.

This made Yu Han have to be cautious about attacking the Black Domain City, if he is defeated, he will be doomed, not only losing the position of commander, but also losing the inheritance of the tribe.

Eight thousand infantry plus four thousand cavalry, the number of people in Murwei is not weak, and the western part of the ridge can only take out 15,000 cavalry now.

But the number of cavalry on the other side is only 4,000, and the rest are infantry, can 8,000 infantry defeat 8,000 cavalry? I'm afraid that even four thousand cavalry will not be able to win.

Yu Han and Wang Peng were in a tangle, whether to fight or not, this is a battle that must be won in the eyes of others, but Yu Han hesitated.

The other party can dispatch 8,000 infantry to fight against him, is it impossible for the people of the Black Domain to go crazy?

There are not 100 large and small battles, but there are also 50 or 60 battles, although they live with the Mughal tribe, but they have rich combat experience all year round, and in the face of such a strange thing as using infantry against cavalry, can they not be cautious?

"What are the people of the Black Domain going to do?" The third man had the best eyesight, and found that the people of the Black Domain who were four miles away seemed to have some action, and reminded him.

The fourth elder Yu Yu also discovered the movement of the Black Domain people on the opposite side, and immediately sent someone to check, and a scout came back to report at the time of the tea: "Young Leader, the big thing is not good, the Black Domain people have begun to erect horse-repelling stakes around the infantry phalanx, and the first road has been paved!" ”

Yu Han was also shocked when he heard this, but he was secretly relieved in his heart, if the other party had not made any moves, it would be strange, and now he is laying a horse rejection pile, doesn't it just show that the people of the Black Domain are timid?

The greatest advantage of the infantry is in defense, not offense, and this is common knowledge that every Murwei person knows.

The question is, do the Murowei people need to defend?

The answer is no, the people of Murowei have always attacked and attacked, even if they are defeated, they can flee to the depths of the grassland desert, there is no need for any defense at all, and the harsh environment on the grassland is a natural defensive barrier.

"Fourth, you lead your 2,000 cavalry to stop the Black Domain people from laying horse rejection stakes and test the reality of the Black Domain people!" Yu Han said.

Yu Yu nodded and said, "What if Black Domain City sends cavalry to attack?" ”

Yu Yu is not stupid, the people of the Black Domain have 4,000 cavalry, if you look at the appearance of the army, it is a few points stronger than the elite in the western part of the ridge. The soldiers of Black Domain City already had the rudiments of a regular army, and each of them had uniform leather armor, which looked more like a neat and uniform elite army than the chaotic cavalry in the western part of the ridge.

This is also one of the reasons why Han is afraid of the people of the Black Domain.

The Murowei people don't have any concept of an army, they are soldiers in wartime, they are herdsmen in peacetime, and their weapons and equipment are all self-prepared, so naturally they don't have a uniform dress, and they look more like a group of bandits who burn and loot.

The uniform dress does not explain anything, but there is more profound meaning in it, the military system of the Murwei people is different from the military system of the Tang Dynasty and the guard system of the Ming Dynasty, a bit like the system of all the soldiers, but because of the backwardness of the productive forces, and the way of hiding the soldiers in the people, every adult man in the Murwei is a good soldier, and at the same time of expanding the source of soldiers, the command can only form a small group according to the proximity within the tribe, and only obey the command of their respective leaders, it is difficult to unify the command. As a result, the various small groups could not coordinate and cooperate with each other in private, which is also the reason why the steppe cavalry rushed up when they fought and scattered when they retreated.

Although the people of Murowei have not had any frontal conflicts with the Central Plains Dynasty for a long time, An Lushan has sent troops to attack the Khitan every once in a while, and has long heard of it in Murowei, the army of the Central Plains is fighting with infantry and cavalry, and the Khitan and Murowei are all cavalry to meet the attack, although the war between An Lushan and the Khitan has its own winners and losers, but the Khitan is not alive and well now, does this not mean that the infantry cavalry can not threaten the cavalry at all?

Thinking of this, Yu Han's heart relaxed, and he said with confidence to the third brother beside him: "You lead your subordinates to deal with the fourth, if the people of the Black Domain dare to send cavalry, you will press the whole army up, and the eldest brother will press you down!" ”

The third and fourth Yu Yu have three or four thousand cavalry under them, these cavalry are all herdsmen in their territory, and they only obey the command of the two, even if it is the boss Yu Han, it is impossible to command, so Yu Han did not let the two of them dispatch all the soldiers and horses, even if they were worried that the two of them had other concerns.

The fourth elder Yu Yu is also an ambitious person, but the strength of Lingxi can only be regarded as medium in Murowei, and if there is any contradiction between the brothers, it will only weaken the overall strength of Lingxi.

However, in the battle of Murowei, there is an unwritten rule that those who make the first contribution can give priority to distributing more slaves and cattle and horses, and Yu Han let Yu Yu take the lead in attacking the Black Domain people, which is also a great opportunity for meritorious service, if the Black Domain people are defeated by themselves, Yu Yu can get half of the spoils, which is definitely a great temptation for Yu Yu.

"Sons, rush with me!"

Yu Yu lifted the reins of the horse, and rushed out of the horse, and the cavalry belonging to Yu Yu's men rushed out when they saw Yu Yu, and also rushed out with Yu Yu, and the cavalry in the west of the more than 2,000 ridges was like a torrent, and more than 8,000 horse hooves stepped on the snow on the ground, and killed the infantry phalanx of the Black Domain people violently, and this kind of courageous momentum alone could scare the recruits who had just enlisted ...... the army.
