Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 456 Guan Yu fights Qin Qiong, Zhang Fei kills Yue Fei
To be honest, Lu Qian had mixed feelings about the modern cavalry.In the early days of the previous life, there were posts praising modern cavalry everywhere on the Internet, and was there any evidence for it, such as the battle at Baliqiao.Lu Qian was so disgusted by nature.

After all, there is no so-called modern cavalry in Chinese history.On the contrary, the glory of traditional classical cavalry is fascinating.Not to mention that in those posts, on the surface, they despise the Chinese cavalry, but in reality, they despise the whole of China.Although the words are contained but not leaked—it should not be too obvious, but they often make people feel a sense of "unique" superiority.

Lu Qian was so disgusted that he didn't like the modern cavalry in his early years.It's a pity that he is just a novice, even if he wants to refute, he doesn't know how to say it.

Fortunately, time made him understand a truth - not everything on the Internet is true.

Some have fifty cents, some have cents, some worship foreigners, and some have Greater China.Of course, Mite Yi and Huang Han are also indispensable...

The Internet is a complicated place, don't believe what you hear, don't believe what you see with your own eyes, and don't even believe the so-called real video.It depends on your heart!
Time helped Lu Qian get rid of his childishness when he was young, and learned to look at problems more rationally, knowing what is absurd on the Internet.

Guan Yu fought Qin Qiong, Zhang Fei killed Yue Fei, such a comparison is ridiculous.And how many of those historical military posts on the Internet are essentially based on this kind of "ridiculousness"?If you really want to take this kind of post as the truth, then you are ridiculous.

Therefore, today's Lu Qian did not hesitate to transform his personal guards into modern cavalry.What is taken is the super frontal impact of modern cavalry.

No matter how despised the modern cavalry, no one can deny the powerful frontal impact of the latter.You can say that the strategic status of the modern cavalry is low, and the existence of the entire arm has only a tactical role.It is said that most of their victories are based on the premise that a large number of infantry and artillery cooperate in combat.While achieving a strong frontal impact, it has also lost its independence in fighting alone, reducing the military value of the cavalry to a new historical low.

But there is only a strong frontal impact, and it has already made it shine in the long river of history.Because the impact itself is one of the important criteria to measure the combat effectiveness of cavalry.

Xie Yuan threw himself into the forest like a tired bird, and rushed into the cavalry of the Western Army ahead.Leading the army was his colleague, Wang De, who was also the commander of the Xuanfeng Barracks.

Seeing this, the latter hurriedly asked someone to send Xie Yuan back for treatment.He shouted: "Release the command and go back with peace of mind. I will avenge you." Wang Yecha looked at the formation of Liangshan Army cavalry on the opposite side, and smiled very happily.I was lucky enough to meet a donkey.

Luan Junshi raised the spear in his hand, and a battalion flag behind him made a "hoo hoo~" sound. Looking at the loose formation on the opposite side, he frowned, and ordered: "Large the distance, and line up thirty feet in front and back."

On the training ground, he has seen the current scene before.A small group of hundreds of cavalry fought, and there was no reserve team or reserve army. It was a wave of shock.If the enemy only fights head-on, they will definitely be smashed by them.However, if the enemy army separates out to attack from the side, the set of "wall charge" passed down by King Lu will be in trouble.

But the current battlefield is flat and open, with a lot of room for maneuver.The troops of each other are scarce, and the enemy's formation is even more sparse. Subconsciously, Luan Junshi thought of the scene on the training ground back then.Although the price was paid in blood, it really proved the power of the wall cavalry.

It can be said that the wall charge broke through the cavalry without hindrance, just like the collision between a watermelon and a stone. After a hedge, only 20 of the forty or fifty cavalry on the opposite side can still sit on horseback. The armor on his body is also spotted with white marks.

On the training ground, it is naturally impossible to fight with real swords and guns.The lance and saber were all made of wood, and the lance head and blade were wrapped in cotton sheaths. They were stained with quicklime, leaving a large mark.

Even so, many people had broken arms and legs during this exercise, and even two people broke their necks. One was lucky enough to be rescued, and the other died soon after.Including the soldier who died from being trampled on his chest by a horseshoe, that cavalry drill cost two lives.

But it was also this drill that caused the Liangshan Army to no longer complain about the training of the wall cavalry.Although in that battle, the wall cavalry did not fight too much light.

Their opponents held half their forces in front, while the other side attacked the flanks.With the horses of the same quality, that is, the same speed, the wall cavalry who had just crushed the enemy in front of them could not get rid of the attack from behind.

In such a fight, both sides will suffer losses.When the golden bell rang, there were 37 wall cavalrymen left on horseback, and their opponents also had 33 men left.

The cavalry formation of the Western Army in front of him reminded Luan Jun of that battle.How to crack it and lengthen the distance.

"Didi di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di..." Instead of whistles used by infantrymen, the cavalry units used trumpets.Although there is indeed no trumpet among classical Chinese musical instruments, this thing is not considered a musical instrument at all, it is just a sound generator, but it does not have the plunger key of a trumpet.More like the horns of ancient China.

The trumpets sounded again, and without any pre-war mobilization, the Liangshan Army urged the horses to move.

The horses had already felt the solemnity of the battlefield, pawing the ground with their front hooves, snorting, and shaking their heads from side to side.

Hundreds of cavalry drove their horses forward at the same time. Luan Junshi needed to accurately judge the distance to ensure that there was enough distance to increase the speed of the horses to the extreme without entering the sprint state early and wasting the horse's physical strength in vain.

You know, riding combat also requires physical strength.

The Jurchens left two very powerful words in Chinese history. The first sentence is known to many people, and that is: The Jurchens are invincible if they are not equal to ten thousand.Is this a very high-level statement?

There is also a second sentence, if you can't fight for more than a hundred rounds, how can you call a horse army!
One back and one back is called a round.It is the horse army charging and passing by, and the horses are turning back here. This is the round in the words.

You don't care whether people can really fight for more than 100 rounds, and don't care whether women are really invincible, who wouldn't say such bragging words?But this kind of self-seeking also proves the importance of physical strength in riding and fighting.

A cavalry without physical strength is just a wooden stake.

Right now, the distance between them and the cavalry of the Western Army is only about three or four miles. They have to keep a slow pace, and when the distance is shortened, they will change to a trot. The deadliest charge.

For the cavalry on both sides, such a request is absolutely childish.But Luan Junshi's difficulty here is how to maintain his relatively dense formation under the gradually increasing speed of the horse.Nowadays, it is still difficult for the soldiers of the Xiaoqi Battalion to charge a hundred feet—tidy as a wall!
Hundreds of war horses advanced slowly, Luan Junshi did not take the central position of the commander in the traditional cavalry formation, but turned the horses to the far right of the first row of cavalry.

The other cavalry in the front row observed his position, controlled their horses, and the entire cavalry array advanced straight to the opposite side.

The Xiaoqi Battalion is the elite of Liangshan, and the upper and lower mates have riding bows, but they don't use them when they are actually fighting, unless it is a chase like just now.But the Western Army is different. When fighting, they always have to fire a wave of bows and arrows before they straighten their lances and draw out their sabers.Although there are not many people who can shoot arrows on horseback, even fewer can shoot accurately.

The gentle sound of horseshoes sounded.It doesn't make people excited, the five cavalry ranks are neatly arranged, as if they are practicing.

The distance of Baizhang was soon reached, and the distance between the two sides suddenly shortened.They can even see each other's faces.The cavalry of the Western Army has been scattered in a group, from the original round shape to a flat and long shape. Each archer holds a riding bow, and drives the horse, running at the forefront.

The trumpeter beside Luan Junshi blew the charge horn, the soldiers clamped the horse's belly tightly, the horse's speed increased greatly, and the charge had entered the countdown.

The cavalry of the Xiaoqi Battalion was getting faster and faster, and the five rows of cavalry were still roughly in order, but the distance between the soldiers in the same row was a little wider, but the distance was only three feet and five feet.The length of the front and rear columns has been extended a bit. The earlier layout was [-] feet, but the last row may have been dragged to [-] feet.However, the array didn't cause a big commotion due to the acceleration, and such a long training period still had some effect.

The dense hoofbeats became smaller and louder, as if mountains and streams converged into rivers, and the rumbling sound carried a sense of vigor.

As expected, the western army on the opposite side separated a force, and Wang De looked at the Liangshan cavalry in front of him ferociously.Thinking of leading the army to fight against the enemy, and another army flanking the flank, how can this battle be unwinnable?
The distance between the two sides was less than a hundred steps, and the Western troops on the opposite side fired bows and arrows one after another.Luan Junshi lowered his head, straightened his spear, and hurriedly urged the horse.There is nothing to hide from. At this time, he is about to rush forward. There are soldiers in the queue who are injured. He doesn't know if someone has turned over and fell off the horse, or the horse fell down with a wail. The sound of the rumbling horseshoes has been annihilated everything.

The cavalry of the Western Army appeared in front of Luan Junshi. They threw their bows on the ground or stuffed them back into the bow pot. Most of the weapons in their hands were spears and sabers. The speed of the horses was also rapidly accelerating. Get serious.Of course, this rigor is only relative to their previous ones.

The speed of the horses of the two armies was raised to the peak, the sound of rumbling horseshoes was like thunder in summer, and the red tassels on the bright helmets danced like countless flickering flames.

Running quickly, the cavalry line of the Xiaoqi Battalion also began to bend, but the distance was already very short.

Luan Junshi blushed.Eyes wide open, he clenched the spear in his hand, pointing the spear at a horse soldier of the western army who was also holding a spear with a fierce face.But at this moment, there was an unconcealable panic in this person's eyes.Because he had to face the attack of two long spears, not just one shot from Luan Junshi.

As mentioned earlier, the impact of modern cavalry is a matter of arithmetic, with more hitting less.

"Kill!!" The cavalry of the two armies roared exhaustedly.The dark clouds in the sky have not dissipated, and the sun is spared to watch.

"boom!"

Two groups of horses, two torrents collided head-on.Countless broken gun barrels, accompanied by the continuous screams of people colliding with horses, resounded in people's ears.

The harsh sound of the collision and friction between the blade and the hard iron of the armor made people feel sour. The bones of the horses that couldn't avoid it collided with each other were shattered, and they fell to the ground and wailed endlessly.There are also the wails of enemy soldiers.

A low-ranking military officer of the Western Army yelled loudly, leading thirty or forty cavalry, and rushed towards the flank of Xiaoqi Battalion.This should have been a thunderous blow, but the last row of cavalry from the Xiaoqi Battalion played a role at this moment.
