Zhuangda Tang Juvenile Lang

Chapter 96: Unexpected and Reasonable
woo woo woo

In the Turkic army, the horn sounded first, and Wudang couldn't wait to give the order to attack.

Five thousand cavalry, striding fiercely, pushed forward flatly, and the ground under their feet began to tremble.

The endless cavalry and the wolf flags were torn by the wind, like billowing raging waves, layer upon layer.

The cold light reflected by the weapon almost overwhelmed the red sunlight, making the sky of the battlefield cold.

Scimitars densely packed like a forest, bursting with murderous aura, like the fangs of a god of death.

Five thousand Turkic cavalry moved with a bang, and marched steadily towards the new army with neat and heavy steps.

With every step, the whole earth seemed to tremble.

Although Qin Feng's experience on the grassland is not as good as Wudang's, and the Turks also have an absolute advantage in military strength, but just like Wudang, Qin Feng has the same sneer, and he has the same chance of winning.

What is it if you don't form an array, shapeless, and move forward intensively?
The soldiers on both sides got closer and closer, appearing in each other's field of vision bit by bit.

"Speed ​​up!"

Qin Feng gave the order to march without hesitation: But the strange thing is that the new army did not increase their speed, but marched in a uniform, trotting state, as if they had completely abandoned the speed of the cavalry.

The strangeness of the new army is naturally in Wu Dang's eyes.

Telling Wu Dang who was moving, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and more of it was vigilance.

"do not care!"

Wu Dan said carefully: "Even if they have any evil ideas, the main thing is that I don't get close. How can they resist me? But...the opponent's lineup is a bit loose, maybe they are guarded against our cavalry and shooting? Arrange a weird formation, just Wanting to deal with our family's cavalry and archery is a bit too naive."

Wudang is quite confident in the riding and shooting of the tribe. There was once a talented archer in the tribe. Under his encouragement and teaching, the Wudang tribe got the true biography of this genius. This genius is the hero of the tribe Therefore, although he died for nearly a hundred years, the heroic deeds of the invincible man in the desert have always inspired the whole tribe. Almost all the teenagers of the tribe regarded him as their idol and role model when they were young.As a result, the Wu tribe is better than all the grassland people who are also Turkic tribes in terms of archery.When it comes to the overall archery ability, he is said to be second in the entire Turkic tribe, and no one dares to say that he is the first.

Because of this, the Wu tribe has a cavalry and archery troop known as the prairie. They are only equipped with bows and quivers and scimitars on the outside. They do not have any long weapons. They use cavalry to come and go as freely as the wind. Features, supplemented by the characteristics of tribes who are good at archery, using grassland cavalry and archery on the battlefield has always been unfavorable.

This is also where Wudang's confidence lies. He never thought about attacking the new army head-on. Instead, he intended to use kite-flying tactics, relying on the habits of the Turkic people and the characteristics of their Wu tribe to annihilate the new army. .

He doesn't believe that this scattered army of less than a thousand people can compare with the nation on their horseback in terms of cavalry and archery?

Wudang had great confidence in their tribe's riding and shooting, so he blew the bone flute on his neck and used the sound of the flute to command the tribe to fight.

With the sound of the bone flute one after another, the cavalry of the Wu tribe unanimously took off their war bows, and held the arrow feathers in their mouths, preparing for the first wave of galloping.

The cavalry of the new army on the opposite side seems to have given up the speed of the cavalry and is advancing slowly, but the cavalry of the Wu tribe is advancing rapidly, making the distance between each other closer and closer.

Three hundred steps!
250 steps!
Two hundred steps!
190 steps!

170 steps!

One hundred steps!

……

almost!

Wu Dang looked at the new army who was like a slow target, and a fiery light flashed in his eyes...

Soon, soon!

Generally speaking, the effective shooting range of the Turks is 150 steps, but the cavalry and archery troops of the Wu tribe are mainly cavalry and archery. They need constant archery to ensure their lethality, so all war bows are short bows that are good for cavalry and archery. The shooting range is shorter than that of ordinary Turkic soldiers, between one hundred and thirty or forty steps, but the battery life has been greatly improved.

Wu Dang stared wide-eyed, waiting for the moment when the distance between the two sides entered 130 steps, the most favorable range.

At this moment, Wu Dang hurriedly chased his horse, leaped out of the formation, and strung his bow. Suddenly, he found that the dazzling sunlight made him almost unable to open his eyes. What's more deadly was that the wind was blowing from the enemy's side.And at this moment, the new army took out something from behind...

"Not good," Wu Dang suddenly thought of a legend, and was immediately terrified! "Get out, get out!"

One by one, the new army marched slowly, taking out the javelins they had prepared from behind...

"Come in, wind!"

Qin Feng gave an order, and the new army rushed to attack suddenly. When the two sides approached more than [-] steps, nearly a thousand javelins screamed and stabbed the Turks with a terrifying sound.

Throughout the ages, the most powerful of the northern peoples is their riding and archery level. Although the new army is the strongest among the Tang army, there is still a considerable gap between the riding and archery level of the Turkic people.

Why take the upper hand?Why is Qin Feng happy when he sees the rising sun?
The reason is that these two can minimize the power of the Turkic cavalry.

Wudang is also a prairie warrior capable of conquering and fighting, and he also knows the importance of the sun and wind direction.

It's just that his superiority in military strength and his undefeated riding and shooting skills gave him blind self-confidence.

Once a person is blindly confident, once he underestimates his enemy, then he is not far from death.

Nearly a thousand javelins taught Wudang how to be a qualified leader.

The new army's arm strength is amazing, coupled with the boost of the wind, the javelin showed a terrifying side.

Roaring across the sky, the javelins all over the sky leaped towards them like poisonous snakes, flashing a faint blue light in the void.

"Scatter!" Wu Dan was in a panic, and while giving the order, he evacuated to the side.

It's a pity that the idea is good, but the reality is very cruel. During this accelerated gallop, he ordered to "disperse" temporarily, even the Turkic people who are skilled in bows and horses could not do this.

In an instant, hundreds of Turkic cavalry screamed and fell down with their javelins. The chaotic fluctuations expanded, and the middle area of ​​the Wudang tribe's dense cavalry and shooting formation collapsed instantly!
In a short while, Wudang lost hundreds of soldiers.

Moreover, these people died in terrible conditions. Some were nailed to the ground by javelins, and some even let the deadly javelins be strung together into "horse meat skewers". Call.

While Wudang was heartbroken, he unexpectedly found that the casualties were far less than he had imagined. The javelin looked terrifying, but because he used the cavalry and shooting formation, the Turkic soldiers left a certain gap between each other, so the first round of javelin was just Three to 400 casualties were caused.

Thinking of this, Wu Dang already had some calculations, and shouted: "Keep going, speed up!"

"Wind!" Wu Dang gave an order, and Qin Feng also ordered the second round of attack. Now the Turks are distracted by the power of the javelin, and they are in a mess. It is a good time to hurt the enemy. Qin Feng has sharp eyes and found out After the Turkic situation, decisively issued an order for the second wave of attacks.

Qin Feng sneered in his heart: It's better to attack up, and the two impulses are added together, and the death is even more serious.

This round of javelins is more lethal. Under the action of two forces, some javelins even took the lives of two people, and because of the obstruction of the "horse meat skewers" inserted on the ground, the rear row of cavalry who were advancing at full speed, lost their lives at speed. It was unavoidable to be stagnant, and some people relied on horsemanship to avoid, but the people behind bumped into them again, so the first few rows of cavalry bumped into some people and turned them on their backs.

At this time, the third round of gun formation greeted them again, this time, the power was even stronger.The new army is also very smart. Wherever they see chaos, they greet them with their javelins.

Three rounds of javelins came down and brought nearly two thousand lives.

In other words, the new army killed more than one-third of the Turkic soldiers without a single person being injured.

"Retreat!" Seeing the Turkic cavalry encircling from both sides, Qin Feng decisively gave the order to retreat.

In the process of retreating, the new army was also quite methodical.

They were divided into two ranks, and the cavalry in the first rank fired the fourth javelin.They shot out one after another, and in the first instant, they flew left and right like a line, and retreated in a roundabout way.

Nearly [-] javelins were fired one after another, taking away about [-] Turkic combat power.

After the javelin was finished, it was the turn of the bow and arrow, one arrow after another, sweeping towards the Turkic cavalry with overwhelming momentum, and with the help of the wind, the damage was doubled.

The new army has always maintained the same speed as the Turks, but the arrows have not stopped. When they retreated, they skillfully installed curved horses on their horses to mount arrows, and then turned around and shot.

Wu Dang was dumbfounded, and he was in a bad mood: the opponent used exactly the same tactics as them: they were planning to fly the kite, but now they let the opponent fly the kite instead.The difference between them gave him an urge to vomit blood.

As an expert in riding and archery, he could see it.The opponent has put in a lot of effort in this area, but in terms of the speed of galloping and shooting, and the flexibility of changing directions, they are far inferior to them. Reduced the power of one's own side to freezing point.It can be said that Wudang and the others have not even touched each other, but the opponent killed nearly half of their soldiers with five rounds of javelins and several rounds of arrows.

"Yes, that's it! Withdraw, do you see it! Let's treat it as a dog walk, and fight at a leisurely pace... I would rather not shoot an arrow. Don't let them catch up! Kill him like a fool." Qin Feng controlled the distance between the two sides.He used the kite-flying tactics to the extreme, constantly consuming Wudang's troops with the advantages of time and distance.

Wu Dang looked at the soldiers beside him, they were shot and killed bit by bit, and he fell off the horse. He wanted to die. He never imagined that after living most of his life, he would fall into what he was best at and what he was best at. under tactics.

Faced with this, he used almost a thousand times of play.He actually felt helpless.

He knows this tactic too well, this tactic is because of the advantage of distance.The party being beaten will always be in a passive situation.

Don't underestimate the space of a stone's throw between them, the distance of hundreds of steps.This distance is neither long nor short.While chasing, the opponent keeps running again, and arrow feathers fly to limit the speed from time to time.Under the same circumstances, it will take a long time for the chasing party to cross the hundred-step distance.Often when you catch up, your pawns are almost exhausted.

The most difficult thing for Wu Dang to accept was that the opponent's command performance was extremely good, the distance between the seats was very good, and the tendency of the leader to lead them slipped away was always maintained, neither fast nor slow.If he chases in a hurry, the opponent runs fast, if he slows down, the speed of the opponent will also slow down, maintaining the most effective range of the arrow from the beginning to the end.

This made Wu Dang a little discouraged.

Regarding the way of riding and archery, his ancestors have studied it specially, how to slip is the best, and how to slip is the most effective, so he has his own experience.

Wu Dang remembered that when he was learning, his performance was a mess. It was not until a few years later that he gradually mastered it. It has been more than 30 years now, like a finger.But the young conductor on the opposite side was no more than 20 years old, but he conducted it properly and without any mistakes.

Even if he tried everything he could, he couldn't get close or get rid of it.

Even if it is an enemy, Wu Dang has to admit that the other party is young and promising.

Seeing that Wudang couldn't catch up, he continued to reduce the number of people. In the process of chasing and fleeing, they didn't even hurt a single person in the new army, but lost more than [-] people. If this continues, they can only go to exhaustion. up.

Seeing another round of crossbow arrows coming, four or fifty people rolled on the ground with horses and men, and finally couldn't hold on anymore, they gritted their teeth and shouted: "Get out!"

It was obvious from his "withdrawal" that all the Turkic soldiers of the Wu tribe breathed a sigh of relief.They used to sneak away from their enemies like this, watching their enemies chase after them one by one, eat ashes and arrow feathers, it is very emotional, but now it can be said that 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, this person who eats ashes and eats feathers and arrows After becoming them, I couldn’t even cry.The high morale has long been thrown to grandma's house.

The Turkic soldiers changed their itinerary miraculously: they turned a small circle to the right and rear in place, and directly used the speed of the forward rush to detour the small circle. The remaining thousand Turkic soldiers completed the retreat at high speed. Difficult things.

Qin Feng, who had been watching the movements of the Turks, was amazed at this. In their army, they were able to make such a clean U-turn. Perhaps apart from Li Shimin's Xuanjia army, the entire Tang Dynasty could not find such a second team.

Turks grew up on horseback since they were young. It is not easy for the Central Plains people to make up for the advantage of being on horseback.

"Stop... the rear team becomes the front team!"

Qin Feng naturally does not intend to give up just like this, but it is not realistic to ask them to make a small turn while accelerating like the Turkic people, and rely on superb equestrian skills to turn, stop and turn around on the spot.Although in order to slow down, at least the formation was maintained.

"Haha!" Seeing the opponent's change of formation, Wu Dang couldn't help laughing, and the depression that had been suppressed and beaten in his heart disappeared a little, and he thought: "It's far from riding and shooting with me. "

Thinking of this, it suddenly came to my mind.

"Withdraw, withdraw quickly!" Wu Dang's tone suddenly became agitated.

Do you return the way of the other to the other?
Qin Feng sneered.

"stop!"

Killing more than 3000 opponents without losing one person was definitely a brilliant victory for the new army.

Qin Feng, who accepted as soon as he saw it, decisively issued an order to stop the pursuit!Then, the new army didn't even look at the Turkic people, they patted their buttocks!flashed.
