Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 414

The army of the Pyu Kingdom and the army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom met outside the city of Bennan in the Nanzhao Kingdom.

There was no politeness between the two parties, not even any communication, and they just started fighting.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom rushed up screaming.

They have been in a state of war all this time.

Therefore, the soldiers were very murderous.

The Pyu army was even a little frightened.

After all, Pyu has not done anything for a long time.

They rested too long.

Suddenly joining the battlefield is indeed a little uncomfortable.

But when they saw the general of the Piao country rushing up first.

The blood in their hearts was also stimulated.

The army led by the general of the Pyu country this time was originally the elite of the Pyu country.

His own strength and level are naturally not bad.

Therefore, the Pyu army was no longer timid, and rushed forward.

The battle between the two sides on the plain was quite brutal.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom is better.

After all, they got the armament of Li Ke, king of Shu.

Although they are all armaments eliminated by Li Ke.

But it is also much better than the Pyu army.

Therefore, in the war between the two sides, the army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom still has the upper hand.

But the general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom always felt uneasy.

Because it all went so well.

General Pyu seemed to have become a brainless reckless man.

All he knew was to confront him on the frontal battlefield.

This is quite unreasonable.

to this end.

He restrained his forces.

Only less than [-] troops were dispatched.

There are still [-] troops around to guard against the surprise attack of the Hu army.

The number of Pyu troops on the field was not large.

Visual estimation is only about [-].

There are probably tens of thousands of troops left without a trace.

I don't know what to do.

The generals of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom had to guard against it.

It turns out.

He really didn't think much about it.

Soon.

Near the camp of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom, there were intensive shouts of killing.

The general of the Xiangxiong Kingdom saw that they were all the troops of the general of the Pyu Kingdom.

Obviously a plain area.

They still spent a lot of time going around the camp of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom.

I want to directly eat the army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom.

The uneasy premonition that the general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom had at the beginning was finally confirmed.

However, it has been prepared for a sneak attack.

The effect that can be achieved is naturally very subtle.

The general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom smiled as expected.

After all, with the strength of the Pyu army.

If you fight head-on.

The Zhang Zhung Kingdom is the one that really has the upper hand.

in particular.

Behind them is the king of Shu who can support them at any time.

No matter how you think about it, they have a greater chance of winning.

and so.

To win.

The Pyu army must adopt some tactics.

It's just because the battlefield was chosen to be in the plains.

Most tactics cannot be used.

Even for long-distance raids, only relatively easy encirclement tactics can be carried out.

Such a siege tactic.

It will only be effective when the difference in numbers between the two sides is obvious and the enemy is unprepared.

And now.

The Shang Shung Kingdom could not have been defenseless.

Therefore, the effect of this tactic is rather insignificant.

even.

Because the number of people is almost the same.

Therefore, the disadvantages of the siege tactics are infinitely magnified.

That is the formation is weak.

The same number of people want to form an encirclement.

Then the formations everywhere will inevitably appear quite weak.

The surrounded army only needs to concentrate its forces to attack.

It's easy to type out.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom is full of confidence.

Even, they can achieve anti-encirclement.

And after solving the army here.

They can also go to support the frontal battlefield.

Have them support the normal battlefield.

They can also win the frontal battlefield.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom thought well.

But the fact is not what they thought.

What are the advantages of Pyu's army?
cavalry.

The cavalry of the Pyu State army is the dominant arm.

This advantage is reflected in mobility and personal combat strength.

But if we talk about personal combat strength.

That's probably because the Shu army is not their opponent.

But what the Shu army is good at is group combat.

Talk about cavalry regiments.

The Shu army is invincible in the world.

Although it is said that Macedonian tactics have been studied by countless countries.

They can even be copied one by one.

But the advantage in equipment cannot be compensated by tactics.

To make up for their advantages in equipment, they can only develop little by little.

Can wait for them to develop.

The armament of Shu State has been improved again.

This is something they will never be able to catch up to.

Li Ke, the king of Shu, is a time traveler.

If even this advantage cannot be maintained.

That's a big joke.

King Li Ke of Shu's understanding of armaments.

More than 1000 years in this world.

Even countries have begun to vigorously develop their armaments.

But he wanted to catch up with the military strength of Shu.

Still impossible.

but.

Pyu's armaments still have an advantage over the Shangshung Kingdom.

This time, it was the cavalry who came to surround the rear of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom's barracks.

The advantage of cavalry is that they can shoot from behind.

And you can run after you hit it.

Take the infantry on the side of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom.

Can't catch up at all.

As for their archers.

Most of them have already been put into the frontal battlefield.

The troops that remained with the general were basically infantry.

If it is not protected by a shield.

I am afraid that a round of riding will be shot down.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom will suffer heavy losses.

Even so.

The army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom also lost a lot.

The loss is only one aspect.

After all, it is war.

Where can there be no loss?
Even Li Ke, the king of Shu who is invincible in the world.

Every war also has some price to pay.

So the general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom didn't care about these things.

But what bothered him was.

The Pyu army fled after fighting.

Don't engage with them at all.

This made tens of thousands of them a living target.

There were not many cavalry in the army of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom.

Plus because of the national conditions.

Most of their cavalry are heavy cavalry.

Heavy cavalry is very effective when charging.

capable of massive damage.

But in terms of mobility, it really doesn't work.

Not to mention the flexibility.

The general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom was very angry.

Such a ranger strategy.

It’s what nomads do best.

They are not nomads at all.

Even because of the location.

They have very little experience fighting nomads.

Piao State is good.

There are nomadic territories in the north of them.

So they have a lot of experience in this area.

Even because of this, he secretly learned from the Rangers.

The scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

The general of the Zhang Zhung Kingdom is also smart.

I know I can't catch up.

Just stop chasing.

Just guarding the camp and waiting for them to get tired.

Light cavalry is indeed very mobile.

But as long as we are living things, we will get tired sometimes.
