Riding a chopping horse and stepping into the world

Chapter 71
Under the shade of the trees, a gust of cold wind hit Zhang Tie's heart.

There was no time for extra movements, Zhang Tie could only twist his body desperately, and at the same time raised his left hand as fast as he could to block the front.

Whoosh!when!The voices sounded almost at the same time. The first iron arrow directly cut through Zhang Tie's clothes, leaving a long and narrow blood mark on his waist. The wound was not very deep.

The second arrow was blocked by Zhang Tie's small steel shield, and the huge force made Zhang Tie want to take a step back.

Since the system was upgraded, Zhang Tie's equipment can only be defensive when it is in real form, which is completely different from before.Not only that, but the speed of changing equipment is also much slower, from about 5 seconds before, to about 10 seconds now.

"Just a little bit, it's dangerous!" Zhang Tie took a breath after hiding in the carriage again, and now his waist was burning with pain.

I don't know whether Zhang Tie was lucky or not. The good thing is that Zhang Tie escaped a fatal blow in the nick of time, and the gangsters seemed to disdain to quench the poison on the iron arrow.

Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Tie's forehead, and his heart was beating wildly, "You underestimate the world, you are too careless."

"Boss, are you okay?"

Ma Chao, who was hiding behind another carriage, was loading the crossbow bolts while looking at Zhang Tie worriedly, his eyes full of worry.

"It's okay, it's just a little scratch. Don't get up in the same place later."

While Zhang Tie was talking, he put on an arrow again and bit one in his mouth.

Lu Jindao squatted behind the car, his face was full of indignation, panting heavily, he punched the ground with his left hand, and made a dull sound, "Damn it, I, Lu Laosan, have lived for so long, and I have never been so useless." Pass."

Crouching down, Zhang Tie shifted his location, and another wave of arrows hit. Zhang Tie pulled himself together, endured the pain in his waist from suddenly getting up, and shot two more arrows at the gangsters, directly Two shots were made.

Ma Chao and others in the rear also got up and shot the crossbow in their hands. At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than 50 meters. Only one of the four crossbows hit, and it was the arm that hit, not a fatal injury.

Ma Chao and the others didn't aim much, they just relied on their intuition and didn't dare to show their heads for too long.

The successive casualties seemed to startle the gangsters a little. They didn't expect that there were only a dozen or so people in the convoy. There were actually five archers (the crossbowmen are also counted as archers), and the most important thing was that there was still one marksman.

Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, and the shooting range of himself and others was not as far as that of the other party, a man who seemed to be the leader gave a loud order: "Abandon the bow and arrow, and change to a close weapon."

Zhang Tie and the others who were hiding behind the car could only hear the voice, but they couldn't see who the speaker was. However, the distance at this time was too far to use the crossbow, and it was obviously too late after shooting the crossbow. Fill again.Ma Chao and the others threw the crossbow under their bodies and drew out the weapons at their waists.

Only Zhang Tie was still holding the bow and arrow, reached out to pick up the arrow stuck in the ground, got up and shot two arrows in succession.

Zhang Tie didn't even look at the result of his own arrow, directly discarded the bow and arrow, pulled out the Pojun, and at the same time grabbed the Eternal Yu with his left hand.

When Zhang Tie and others were resting, the tree-shaded area was no longer on the official road, the road was not very flat, the carriages did not completely form a circle, and there were many gaps that could pass through. The size of each gap was different, and the larger ones could be tolerated. Three horses pass at the same time, but only one of the smaller ones can pass.

A horse rushed into the group of carriages through a gap, and with the impact of the horse, the gangster directly split a trooper standing on the side together with the knife in his hand in half.

"Mayon!"

Ma Chao, who was on the side, turned red and gave the gangster a vicious look, then raised his knife to defend, but a gangster was about to attack from the gap where he was.

With a crisp sound, the knife in Ma Chao's hand was broken. However, learning from the past, Ma Chao jumped to the right and avoided being split in half. However, his left hand was scratched by the knife, and the bone was clearly visible. .

Cavalry has too many advantages over infantry. The mobility of cavalry can ensure the army's rapid pursuit, encirclement, sneak attack and rush to rescue.

The impact of the cavalry can effectively deal with the relatively simple infantry phalanx, because the cavalry can quickly rush into the enemy's formation with the speed of the horse, which can effectively destroy the enemy's formation.

Its galloping momentum can even collapse the morale of the enemy. For the moraleless infantry, the cavalry is simply a nightmare.

However, the cavalry is also limited, and the terrain is the biggest factor. Mountains are not conducive to the establishment of the cavalry's speed advantage.

Secondly, a well-trained infantry phalanx can resist cavalry with pole weapons (spears, spears and various variants) or use bows and crossbows to suppress cavalry.

Therefore, in evenly matched battle formations, cavalry is often used as an intervening force to find gaps and flaws in the enemy's battle formation to fight. It is also often used for surprise guerrilla attacks and breakthroughs.

In fact, infantry can beat cavalry. It is not complicated to say. Compared with cavalry, infantry occupies a much smaller area on the battlefield and can be arranged in a tighter formation. No matter how strong it is, it cannot resist the simultaneous attack of multiple infantry:

As long as the infantry can resist the pressure brought by the cavalry and keep the formation intact, and the command is smooth and flexible to ensure that they will not be attacked by the cavalry, they will always have an advantage when facing the cavalry.

For example, in the history of the blue planet, during the battle between Jin and Song, Jin’s cavalry was heavy cavalry, which had great impact and poor flexibility. Yue Fei took advantage of this, cutting down the cavalry and cutting down the horse’s legs, and defeated the heavy cavalry of Jin.

So the cavalry is not invincible. As long as the method is right, the quality of the soldiers is good, and the battle formation is in place, everything can be solved easily.

The gangster relied on the power of the horse's sprint to split the man in half with a knife. Of course, there is still a gap in the weapons. Otherwise, it would not be a one-sided break. The effects of force are mutual. .

From this, it is not difficult to see that the gangsters are well-equipped, and they are definitely not ordinary gangsters.

At this time, the gangster was not ready to let Ma Chao go, but was ready to kill him directly. He raised the weapon in his hand and was ready to swing at Ma Chao.

At this moment, a long knife with a red point on the tip slashed over and cut across the bandit's neck. The bandit's head was separated from his body, and he died on the spot.

But Zhang Tie, who was on the side, rushed over and killed the bandit with a single blow. He didn't have time to check the reminder on the retina, and he didn't have time to greet Ma Chao, who was clutching his arm. All rushed into the carriage ring.

And just as Zhang Tie beheaded the gangster, the gangsters who charged in from other places killed and wounded three other gangsters one after another.

"Take it and protect yourself."

Zhang Tie stepped forward and rode on the bandit's horse. He dropped the Yonghen Yu in his left hand at Ma Chao's feet and rushed down the bandit who had just rushed through the gap while crossing the broken army.

When Zhang Tie shoots arrows, he only uses a small steel shield.Because the small steel shield can be used to continue to use the bow, which has little effect on shooting, but it cannot be used with the Eternal Armor. It is too large to hold it in one hand and shoot arrows while bending the bow.

As for Zhang Tie's own mount, of course it was already dead and couldn't die any more. Not only his mount, but also some rough horses pulling carts were mostly killed and injured, most of them were shot by the arrow rain just now.

As the owner of Pingzhou's goods, Lu Jindao was not idle either. With an initial score of 45 points, he definitely had the strength of a second-rate warrior.

At the beginning of the long-range attack, Lu Jindao had been holding a breath in his chest, and now it was the time for him to vent when it came to close combat.

A fierce bandit was riding on a horse and slashed at Lu Jin Dao with his sword, but Lu Jin Dao killed him directly and knocked him off his horse.

Although the gangsters are much more powerful than ordinary bodyguards, there is still a big gap compared with Lu Jindao's strength.

"Kill it!"

Lu Jindao raised the nine-ring sword in his hand, shouting and rushed towards the gap.
