Chapter 91
After a round of shooting, the Mongolian elite cavalry archers had already disengaged from the hollow phalanx of the U.S. rear at the other end, until even the artillery could not bombard them.

In addition to suffering from shells at the beginning, these Mongolian elite cavalrymen had a wealth of combat experience (although they have no ego, but it does not mean they are stupid) and quickly figured out the effective killing distance and power of the US artillery.

This seems almost impossible to ordinary people, but it has become an instinct for the elite Mongolian cavalry archers who have integrated killing and fighting into their bones.

Naturally, it is not difficult for them to escape from the effective killing range of artillery fire.

However, after a round of battle, the elite Mongolian cavalry archers did not get any benefits. There is no other reason. The riding and shooting tactics that the elite Mongolian cavalry archers are proud of and even the weapons they use are far behind this era...

If it wasn't for the fact that the morale of the Mongolian elite cavalry archers was always full, they would have collapsed in the face of more than half of the casualties at this time!
In fact, even the elite veterans of the U.S. Army on the opposite side faced nearly a thousand casualties (including the wounded) after a round of cavalry and shooting, and the hollow phalanxes in the front row basically lost their combat effectiveness.

The surviving officers demanded to retreat, while the soldiers watched in horror as the ancient horse archers regrouped outside the range of the artillery in the distance.

Originally, these soldiers regarded the cavalry and archery of the elite Mongolian cavalry as that of the Indians, and they had a great psychological advantage. After a round of fighting, this psychological advantage completely collapsed in the face of huge casualties.

If it weren't for their absolute superiority in numbers and firepower, the first few hollow phalanxes would have been shot down by the elite Mongolian cavalry.

In this regard, General Gates had to swap the front hollow phalanx with the battalion-level combat units in the back row that did not participate in the battle.

Of course, the exchange is still the elite reserve force of the U.S. military. This is the benefit of having a strong force, and it is almost consuming the opponent in a wheel-to-wheel battle.

The freshmen who had just been replaced had higher morale and armaments, but the rear line moved back a certain distance as a whole.

General Gates would not arrange the exchanged troops on the ground where there were corpses everywhere, which would greatly damage the morale of the soldiers.

On the battlefield, only the commander standing on the high platform and on the horse can see the whole situation of the battlefield clearly. The soldiers below have a very narrow field of vision. Many soldiers behind can't even see the dead bodies of both sides after the fierce battle ahead.

The strict military discipline also restrained the soldiers from walking around to find places with a good view. The commanders would naturally make full use of this to ensure that the soldiers behind did not see too many dead bodies of their own, causing morale to drop.

After all, the battlefield cannot be a vast plain with endless flat terrain. Even if it is a great plain, there will be undulations in the terrain that obscure the view, not to mention the shadow of a large number of friendly soldiers.

This is like the tourist attractions in Yuri's previous life, the people behind basically don't want to see the scenery in front, all they can see is the human head...

Soon, the Mongolian elite cavalry archers adjusted their tactics and charged again.

After the elite Mongolian cavalry archers realized that housekeeping tactics were not easy to use, they simply chose hard steel tactics.

It is the charge of traditional cavalry!
Of course it's not a wall charge. The elite Mongolian cavalry archers don't know what a wall charge is.

Their tyranny is more reflected in their personal fighting skills and horsemanship.

The practice of the Mongolian elite cavalry archers is the common behavior of the game trial army. When these trial soldiers find that their best fighting methods cannot achieve the goal of victory, they will charge with their lives for their lives without fear of death. Come on the ultimate enemy...or yourself!

This is the fundamental reason why soldiers on trial will always wipe out their entire army in a short period of time and inflict heavy damage on the enemy.

What is the best kill-to-injury exchange ratio, what tactical needs, etc., are not considered by the soldiers on trial.

There are only two purposes for their existence - killing and completing the goal of KO Yuri!
However, in order to avoid the shelling, the elite Mongolian cavalry archers charged more scattered this time. Anyway, their battles depended on their personal combat skills. Since they decided to charge with their lives, it didn't matter whether they concentrated or not.

The purpose of the Mongolian elite cavalry archers is to kill as many people as possible in front of the enemy, so that they will not be shot and killed by the enemy.

The U.S. artillery fired again in a hurry. Just like the first time, the solid bullets fired in the first round did not achieve any results, and they had no chance to shoot the second time...

Because the artillerymen discovered that the charging speed of these ancient cavalry was too fast, which was completely the pinnacle standard of light cavalry in this world.

The trial cavalry of Tier 2 is different after all.

Of course, in the follow-up salvo of mortars, even if the elite Mongolian cavalry archers were scattered, nearly a hundred men and horses were overturned or smashed into sieves...

What followed was an earth-shattering alternating volley of guns!
The elite Mongolian cavalry archers first slid down to a position parallel to the horses to reduce the bombardment area. When they entered the effective shooting range of cavalry, the elite Mongolian cavalry archers turned on their horses uniformly, one after another without even looking at them. The arrow shot forward in a hurry.

Afterwards, he was hit by rounds of lead bullets and trembled all over, or simply flew off the fallen horse...

Due to the extremely fast charging speed, the elite Mongolian cavalry archers switched to the scimitar without shooting a few arrows, even if they had a relatively long range.

Almost the second after the elite Mongolian cavalry archers threw away their bows and replaced them with scimitars, the horse slammed into the U.S. line infantry with bayonets.

It was like crashing into a crowd of people on a fast-moving motorcycle without any skill or any cover.

Under Yuri's monocular, the American soldiers in blue military uniforms in the front row flew backward at a speed visible to the naked eye, and many of them even hit the friendly troops in the back row, causing secondary damage...

However, the horses of the elite Mongolian cavalry archers who crashed into it were also uncomfortable. The effect of force is mutual, and none of the horses that hit people can get up...

After all, the line infantry of the U.S. Army are all standing next to each other holding bayonets!
At this moment, the opportunity came to show the strong physical fitness of the elite Mongolian cavalry archers.

In Yuri's binoculars, an elite Mongolian cavalry archer flew up and popped up the moment his horse fell down. The American soldier in black uniform was cut in half on the spot!

That strength immediately shocked the other American soldiers around!

As a result, the surrounding American soldiers no longer used bayonets, but raised their muskets to aim...
