When? In times of war! 221 Dismount and shoot at foot

Tie Taibao didn't pay attention to them at all, and said: "Lao Jiu, touch the close, find out where they come from, don't get too close, be careful with the arrow-"

"Yes!" Lao Jiu answered, and was about to ride his horse out, but at the same time, the person on the opposite side also moved. 、

Dong Ce didn't intend to give these bandits any respite, he said in a deep voice: "Yelu Lihe, Wang Tong, the two of you, each lead your own. Yelu Lihe, left-wing, Wang Tong, right-wing! Go and test them to the end! Kill as many people as you can. ”

"Yes!" The two of them said yes in a deep voice.

They each gave orders, and soon they were out of the array with their own, and slowly accelerated on horseback, rushing towards the bandits.

After traveling some distance, they each made a detour and struck at the bandits' wings.

Although it is the place where the mountains and rivers meet, it is the only way to avoid it, but the terrain is also a hundred steps wide, enough for the cavalry to gallop on horseback.

If the opponent is cavalry, or Dong Ce and others are foot soldiers, it is actually impossible to block the enemy here with these forces, but now that Dong Ce is a cavalry and the enemy is a foot soldier, then it is possible to achieve it.

"Lao Jiu, you don't have to go!" Tie Taibao said with a calm face.

He could see that the enemy's cavalry seemed to be trying to rush at him. Then he turned around and shouted: "Cheer up Lao Tzu and take up arms!" ”

It was very fast, and the cavalry of both cities was close to within a hundred paces.

When they got closer, Tie Taibao's face suddenly changed greatly.

These are officers and soldiers, and they are extremely elite officers and soldiers!

For bandits and rogues, it is very simple to distinguish whether they are elite officers and soldiers, just look at weapons and armor and other equipment. Generally speaking, the officers and men are dressed in tatters, their faces are yellow and thin, they are similar to Hanako, and their combat effectiveness is also very average. And the officers and men with neat uniforms and neat appearances will have good combat effectiveness. If it can be equipped with a good weapon, the combat effectiveness can be regarded as considerable. And the officers and soldiers wearing armor must have very strong combat effectiveness, and they cannot be easily provoked.

However, these officers and soldiers in front of them are all wearing helmets and armor, and the armor is very good, and they are riding horses, so they know that they are not easy to mess with at a glance.

It's hard to mess with!

But after the shock, a strong greed couldn't help but come to my heart.

He had always been worried about the equipment under his command, and only half of the two hundred or so men had weapons, and many of them were rusty and unusable. Other people even use wooden sticks, nail rakes, dung forks and the like, which makes people feel suffocated when they look at it.

As for the armor, it was even more of a none, not even the Tietaibao.

This is a rabble in the truest sense of the word.

But the Tietaibao had no way, the grain and silver could be snatched from the common people and the gentry, but the weapons and armor had to be snatched from the officers and soldiers. Where did he have the courage to meet with officers and soldiers before?

But today it's different. He was much more courageous than before, and he realized his strengths - the military spirit was available!

"If you can snatch the weapons and armor of these officers and soldiers?" A fiery thought rose in Tie Taibao's heart, and when this thought came out of his life, it was immediately uncontrollable, like the heat of a prairie fire, burning Tie Taibao dizzy, and almost lost his mind.

No matter how difficult they are to mess with, after all, they are only 30% of our number!

Tie Taibao easily made a comparison of the strength of the two sides.

He also immediately ordered: "Everyone, gather to the cart and use the cart as a cover." These dog officers and soldiers are afraid that they are going to rush at us, we must shrink into a ball, so that they can't rush, and if there are big cars in the way, they will have to be blinded! When they run out of horsepower, let's fence them up and kill them like pigs! ”

He laughed and said, "Brothers, after these officers and soldiers, we also have armor and good weapons!" ”

A bunch of bandits made his blood boil, and they all shouted in response, and gathered to the cart in a disorderly manner according to his orders.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this arrangement of the Iron Taibao.

But there has to be a premise - normally.

For the officers and soldiers, these bandits still have a certain amount of experience in struggle, and they also know that in the face of the enemy's cavalry, the scattered formation is the easiest to be broken and scattered, and in this era, once they are scattered, it basically means that they have been defeated. It was the Tie Taibao who arranged for them to shrink the defensive line, relying on the carts, and they were densely packed, and there was nothing wrong with that.

If the cavalry were to charge directly, they would have to avoid the large carts that stood in front of them, and once they did, their speed would be reduced.

Once the cavalry loses the advantage of speed and loses the ability to impact, then in the face of foot soldiers several times their size, they basically have no power to fight back.

But the problem is that Dong Ce didn't plan to let the cavalry charge directly into battle at all.

That's the stupidest thing to do. With the help of the high-speed mobility of the cavalry, while trying to protect itself, it also kills and injures the enemy in large quantities, which is the last word.

Hitting hard is actually a helpless move under helplessness.

The cavalry of Zhongzidu rode forward, and since the purpose was only to close the distance, not to carry the horse to sprint, so their speed was not fast, and they all cherished their horsepower. Wang Tong was at the front, pressing the formation.

In the words of later generations, it is actually rhythm.

Following behind the adults, Dong Zhongyong only felt that his heart was about to jump out, riding on a horse, in fact, the horse speed was not fast, but Dong Zhongyong only felt that a gust of wind was coming, so that he couldn't breathe smoothly. He grew his mouth, but he felt panicked, out of breath, and his face was flushed. It seemed that the vision was a little blurred, and the hand holding the reins trembled, only feeling soft hands and feet.

Dong Zhongyong knows why, the old man calls this phenomenon nervous.

Obviously, I'm nervous again.

He quickly took a few deep breaths of air, and he seemed to feel a little better.

Dong Zhongkang, who was on the side, noticed his movements and gave him an encouraging look.

Dong Zhongyong only felt a shock all over his body, and remembered what Wang Tongwang's housekeeper told him before leaving.

"You are also a seven-foot man, with a body of horizontal flesh and two hundred and eighty pounds of strength, why are you so stupid? I know where your problem is, you are worried that you are stupid, you are worried that you will not be able to do well, so the more likely it is to make mistakes! Lao Tzu is here to tell you, you kid, you shoot arrows accurately, you ride horses well, you have good knife skills, and your spear pierces deeper than anyone else, why can't you do it well! Remember, you're no worse than anyone else! ”

He only felt a warm current flowing through his body, his breathing was smooth, his whole person was comfortable, his hands and feet were full of strength again, and even his eyes were firm.

"Yes! I'm no worse than anyone else! What Steward Wang said must be right! He's so valued by adults! A voice echoed in Dong Zhongyong's chest: "I'm no worse than anyone else!" I'm too! ”

In fact, many times, what they lack is just an affirmation from others.

Zhongzidu and Yizi both approached forward, and the bandits were already crowded around those big carts, like a big meat ball.

When he was about eighty steps away from the bandits, Wang Tong raised his arms high and said in a deep voice: "Slow down, prepare to dismount!" ”

"Yes!" The crowd was amazed.

Over there, Yelu Lihe is also a general action.

The cavalry slowed down their horses and walked forward for about ten steps, and Wang Tong shouted: "Dismount!" Dong Zhong ......"

His eyes quickly swept in front of everyone, and when he saw Dong Zhongyong's face full of expectation and resolute eyes, he swallowed the word 'Yong' in his mouth and said, "Dong Zhongen, you will be a horse stake, and the rest of the people will be lined up with the official." ”

The crowd responded and dismounted.

The family named Dong Zhongen put the reins of more than a dozen war horses in his hands and became a horse stake. The horse stake here does not refer to the stake of the wooden or stone carving of the horse, but refers to the fact that in the course of the battle, after the cavalry dismounts, a person must be left to watch and pull the horses. The main reason for this was to prevent the horses from escaping in fright.

According to common sense, there should be one horse stake for five people, but firstly, Dong Ce has limited manpower, and secondly, these war horses are well-trained and good horses, so there is no need for so many horse stakes. It is enough to leave one of them behind.

On the other side, the same is true of the words of Yelu Lihe and Yong.

Under the leadership of Wang Tong, the remaining fifteen people in Zhongzidu took two steps forward and stood in a straight line, with an interval of about half a step.

Sixteen people opened up like this, and it seemed that the formation was much larger.

If you look at it from the sky at this moment, the bandits gathered together look like a huge irregular circle, and in the northeast and southeast directions of this circle, there are rows of straight lines at oblique angles, which actually faintly form a flanking momentum against them.

In the past training, whether Dong Zhongyong was on or off the horse, as long as there were many people, when he was looked at, there was almost no time when he made a mistake. And once he practiced with Dong Zhongkang in private, he was extremely skilled.

This time, Dong Zhongyong turned over and dismounted steadily, without any mistakes.

"Bow and arrow!" Wang Tong said loudly.

He took the bow in his left hand, reached for the arrow at his waist, drew a large arrow, and put it on the bowstring. This action has been repeated countless times in training, but every time Dong Zhongyong feels a little awkward, but this time, he only feels that the whole movement is extremely smooth and done in one go.

Although he can't say such words as flowing clouds, he does have this kind of experience at the moment.

"Aim!" Wang Tong ordered again. Dong Zhongkang narrowed his eyes slightly, pulled out his bow and arrow, and he aimed at a person. It was a man in his forties, and Dong Zhongyong's eyes had always been very good, which was also the reason why he had good marksmanship. He could even see it clearly, the man with long swarthy hair and grass like a mess of grass had a terrible scar on the left side of his face, cutting from the corner of his left eye to his chin, almost cutting his face in half!
