Seeing that the scouts were far away from the Huaxia Army, no, at this time, in the eyes of the Houjin Army, they encountered the Ming Lushun garrison. Therefore, it should be said that there is only one mile left from the enemy army.

The Houjin side saw that there was only 1 mile of land left, and they were not willing to give up the "fat" to their mouths so much, and at the same time, their rear team began to form a whole team and report to the rear troops, and at the same time, they also sent a whole team of rangers, chasing after the "Ming army at night" in front, and constantly harassing them with riding bows.

At this time, the cavalry of the Houjin soldiers all crossed the hill in front of them and appeared in front of Zakdan.

The officers, who had long had good eyesight, made a rough estimate of the number of enemy troops, and in addition to the rangers, there were about 1,000 men.

Looking through the binoculars, the enemy's large forces also stopped at this time and began to deploy at a distance of 1 km.

"It seems that they have also discovered their own military formation here."

After a little search, I found that the most conspicuous position of the enemy's Chinese army was a positive blue flag and a true recognition flag, and the sound of conch horns and horns in the queue was endless.

After the order of the Jin army was clear, the officer immediately explained: "The enemy has decided to fight to the death with our army. ”

The cavalry battalion had already completed its formation in the shelter on the side of the hill, and the political workers were mobilizing before the formation, and their speeches from time to time aroused bursts of warm applause and cheers from the soldiers.

Zachdan grabbed the horse's belly and came to the battalion flag of the cavalry battalion, the commander of the second cavalry battalion was waiting for the order, but he didn't expect that Zachdan came in person, he beat his chest with some excitement and said: "General!" ”

Zachdan waved his hand, led the other party to the top of the hill, pointed to the enemy position on the opposite side, and said, "Our reconnaissance cavalry is too small in number, and they have not been trained in group combat, so we can't beat them."

And the infantry, if the enemy rushes up, with the advantage of numbers, can win, but they can only carry out passive defense, once the enemy wants to disengage, the infantry will not be able to catch up at all. ”

"Do you understand?"

"My subordinates understand that the kingdom has spent a lot of effort to form cavalry units in order to deal with this situation, and all the commanders and warriors of our cavalry units are always ready to serve the kingdom."

Zachdan smiled with relief, "It's up to you this time." ”

As he spoke, he took out the bulletproof insert on his body and handed it to the other party, "This is given by Jun Shangqin, and the defensive power is much stronger than the defensive power of the protective steel plate used by the officer on your body, hurry up and replace it." ”

It's not that Zachdan invites people to buy people's hearts, cavalry warfare in this era is unpredictable, and the commanders don't have the kind of preferential treatment that the commander of the infantry battalion has, and in order to adjust the combat operations in time, they must follow the soldiers.

Moreover, the cavalry commanders often have to command the battle in the front row nearby, and personally engage the enemy, therefore, the cavalry commander has become the enemy's key target, and every time the battle is engaged, the cavalry commander's danger coefficient even exceeds that of ordinary cavalry.

As a high-level member of the Huaxia Army who formed the Huaxia Army with Chen Xin, Zakdan naturally knew this, so he personally came to Zhu Guobin to give the order, and handed over the protective plug-in plate that Chen Xin had processed for him to save his life.

"General, this, this subordinate can't ······" The other party wanted to refuse, but Zachdan immediately shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, change it immediately, this is an order." ”

When the other party changed the plug board on his body with red eyes, Zachdan saluted the other party and said: "Battalion Commander Hou, the guard company sent to me by the king is also assigned to you to command, I hope you can successfully defeat the Houjin army on the opposite side, say hello to them for my Huaxia Army, and tell them that the Huaxia Army is coming." ”

Zhu Guobin returned the military salute and nodded to Zachdan, the large array of Houjin had begun to advance, and the cavalry of the second reconnaissance battalion were getting closer and closer.

Battalion Commander Hou took a deep breath, returned to the side of the hill, and shouted loudly, "Herald, blow the trumpet!" Order, all, prepare, meet the battle. ”

The sound of the trumpets resounded through the hillside, and four cavalry companies, a total of twelve cavalry platoons, formed a long three-column formation, each with more than 100 people, less than 200 people, and the saber blades densely erected on the array shone in the sun.

On the position, the cavalry's queue is strictly calculated, perennial training to develop a conditioned reflex, the same platoon of cavalry is only 90cm apart from each other, platoon and platoon between 3 meters, front and rear row 10 meters apart, there will never be much error, their cavalry battalion will serve as the main force to destroy the enemy formation, this time if the performance is good, then, the future of the cavalry troops, will be unlimited.

Battalion Commander Hou looked at the Houjin army who stopped and lined up on the opposite side, his eyes showed bitter hatred, he was an older generation of Liaodong people, and there was no need for any mobilization of political workers, and the Houjin army was already his enemy.

After all, although the dragon horse is good, its consumption is too great, and the equipment of the whole staff can not bear it, so the cavalry battalion is used to fight, and it is about three generations of mixed-breed dragon horses.

Although it is a mixed breed, the physique of the war horse is far from being comparable with the pure-blooded or even the second-generation dragon horse, but in the process of hybridization, these third-generation dragon horses are also inherited part of the strong physical strength of the dragon horse, and the excellent character of the Mongolian horse that is resistant to rough feeding.

There is good material, it grows strong, eats coarse material, it can also adapt, but it is much easier to serve than those pure-blooded dragon horses.

Of course, neither the high-ranking leaders of the kingdom, nor the commanders of the cavalry regiments and the people in the logistics department would go so far as to ignore the bodies of these war horses and deliberately refuse to give them fine materials.

In ordinary breeding, except for the period of tolerance to rough feeding training, at other times, the essence of the war horses is still not lacking.

Huaxia cultivated the ability of these war horses to tolerate rough feeding, just to deal with future emergencies, and also to be just in case during the expedition.

By this time, the horses had sensed the atmosphere of the battlefield, and their violent personalities had begun to plow the ground with their front hooves and shake their heads from side to side with their noses.

The soldiers of the cavalry battalion were excited to finally face the first group charge, but the years of rigorous training had made them firmly aware of their duties, and when they sensed something unusual about their horses, they quickly stroked their horses.

Moreover, there are some war horses with little habits and arrogant personalities, who don't eat and stroke, and their riders immediately take out carrots, small pieces of sugar and other things, and secretly race into the mouth of the war horse, calming the emotions of the war horse.

However, a big battle is coming soon, and even if it is a snack, I don't dare to feed more, just get two bites, please the war horse a little, and immediately put away the rest of the things.

may have been infected by the atmosphere of slaughter on the battlefield, or it may have been affected by the restlessness of other war horses, and the originally very stable second-generation excellent dragon horse under Camp Commander Hou also showed some excitement.

Battalion Commander Hou knew that it was too early to be excited at this time, in order to preserve the physical strength of the war horse, he gently clamped the horse's belly, controlled the war horse to step on small steps, and brought him to a distance of 15 meters in front of his cavalry battalion.

Now, it is not the time for them to attack, although the tone of the cavalry has long been set, but, after all, there are thousands of enemy cavalry, Zachdan is still a little worried, 500 cavalry will not be safe.

Therefore, next, the infantry battalion lined up on the enemy's side in front of the hill will attract the enemy's attention and attract the enemy to attack, and cooperate with the infantry battalion on the flank of the cavalry battalion as a reserve to give the enemy a certain degree of blow, and then it will be the turn of the cavalry battalion to play.

However, plans can never keep up with the rapid pace of change.

Just when Zachdan was quietly preparing to meet the arrival of the enemy army, using the powerful firepower in the hands of the infantry to give the enemy a head-on attack, something happened that caught Zachdan off guard.
