Vol 4 Chapter 3523: Detail of sergeant's footwork


Shen Tianzi waved his hand: "Hey, it's okay to be angry, but you can't really come. Although the Suwei cavalry is awesome, but after all, they are our comrades, and they can't vent their anger on the battlefield. Human life, you are all my brothers, but if you mutilate your fellow soldiers, don't blame me, the third son of Shen, for turning his face and not recognizing anyone!"
Everyone, including the sledgehammer, put away their smiles and said solemnly, "As per your order."
Shen Tianzi nodded and said: "Here, the crossbow machine is only wound, not fired. Since the cavalry of the old guards rushed out ahead of time, they just wanted to make a contribution. You can even say that they want to grab it. People want to grab it by their ability. , just give them a chance, after all, we have stayed behind for so long, it's not like we have already killed a lot of thieves. Let them kill them happily."
A soldier beside him whispered: "Third brother, if the cavalry of the old guards can't beat the armored cavalry, what should we do? Shall we rush out or shoot arrows to kill the enemy in the back row to help?"
Shen Tianzi stroked his beard, raised his eyebrows upward, and waved his hand: "No, we just need to guard our position, Suwei's iron cavalry, and the foot cavalry led by the fourth elder, and even Rong I heard that this guy Zu is here too, with him around, even if these hundreds of armored cavalry pierce through the cavalry of the old guards, they will not be able to make waves after they reach the battle."
The surrounding sergeants cheered with joy, and only the former sledgehammer said with some disdain: "Is that Rongzu really that powerful? Hmph, I haven't seen it anyway, I'm afraid, if it wasn't because he was the commander My nephew, wouldn't it be so powerful?"
Shen Tianzi smiled slightly: "I said Erniu, if you have a chance to see Rong Zu's battle in today's battle, you probably won't think so, I have fought with Rong Zu. It's clear, he definitely didn't rely on Brother Ji Nu's power to get up."
The strong man named Erniu widened his eyes: "What? Even the third brother..."
Shen Tianzi's face sank: "I didn't say he was better than me, but..."
When Shen Tianzi said this, a strange smile appeared on his face: "It really looks like Brother Ji Nu."
The iron hoofs were maddening, and the sound of killing was loud. The knights on both sides all took up spears and halberds. In the process of this kind of cavalry hedging, neither the four-to-five-meter-long cavalry could be used, because the hedging formation was Divine weapon, but close combat becomes a burden, and you can't use secondary weapons that are more than three feet long, such as saber, hammer whip and the like, because the weapon is too short to touch the enemy's edge, it will give The enemy took off the horse with long weapons, so the long spears and sticks of about two meters became the best weapons. In the process of the cavalry on both sides, they only saw these long spears, and the big sticks were shining.
"Peng", "Boom", and "Pa", the two cavalry groups collided head-on, and the sound of countless war horses neighing suddenly resounded in all directions. The screaming, screaming, and scolding were endless. From time to time, more than ten people would fly directly from the horse because of the violent collision. There was a lot of blood in the yellow dust. Obviously, the two sides entered the stage of close combat after the hedging, and the number of casualties on both sides increased sharply.
Shen Tianzi touched his chin and said with a sneer, "The cavalry's attack is really powerful. To be honest, we Wu infantrymen can't stop this kind of frontal attack."
Erniu said unconvincingly: "We have a big killing weapon like the Eight-Stone Running Bull Crossbow, how many cavalry we shoot and kill, today we shot from the flank, but in the last battle of Linqu, Brother A Shou faced the enemy head-on. The attack of the army, hundreds of eight-stone rushing ox crossbows, directly destroyed the attack of the enemy's tens of thousands of iron cavalry. Why can't it be stopped?"
Shen Tianzi smiled and waved his hand: "Er Niu, you don't even think about it, why did the Yan army's armored cavalry rush towards the Baishi Benniu Crossbow Array so foolishly, if they detoured, they would attack us like this Flanking, avoiding the frontal crossbow array, so what?"
Er Niu opened his mouth, shook his head and said, "This, this is up to the command of the generals, so that we can deal with the enemy's attack at any time, just like now, we also have the eight-stone rushing crossbow on our flank."
Shen Tianzi sighed: "So, on weekdays, asking you to learn more about the art of warfare is to grow your brains. The biggest advantage of this cavalry assault is that you can choose the direction and timing of the attack. If we hadn't used all kinds of warfare today, It's a frontal block again, it's a counterattack with sandbags and trolleys, and it's an owl head that provokes the enemy. Will they attack from this flank of us so obediently? Why don't they come from the other side? Why don't they go around the battlefield and follow us Come over from behind? Er Niu, if these Yanqi came from your other direction, do you have time to place the eight-stone rushing crossbow?"
Er Niu sighed: "Third brother, I understand, this cavalry is indeed powerful, although we have a crossbow and a shield formation, but it is not easy to turn, it takes time to arrange, so it will be very difficult to make a surprise attack. Difficulty, originally thought that our Wudi light soldiers are good at close combat and invincible, but if we encounter cavalry, it is still difficult to fight."
Shen Tianzi laughed: "Don't worry, everyone, the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River have vertical and horizontal rivers, and it is not easy for cavalry to move. That is our world, but this northern plain is conducive to the galloping of war horses, that is, the iron cavalry in the north has the upper hand. If you want to continue fighting and make great achievements in the north, you have to go back and find a way to learn how to ride. We have captured the enemy’s war horses, and we can go on horseback to fight, they are all human, I don’t believe you can learn it!

All the sergeants were full of confidence and said loudly, "Third brother, I'd like to learn riding!"
Shen Tianzi hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at the battlefield in front of him that had been killed in a ball, the smoke and dust gradually dispersed, and said with a sneer: "As long as you make merit and become the Suwei Army, there will be hundreds of soldiers. Thousands of war horses for our Shen family soldiers to ride."
Speaking of this, he raised his thick eyebrows and shouted to the soldiers behind him in a deep voice: "Everyone listen up, beat the drums to help the battle, all the soldiers and soldiers, shout in unison, for the soldiers of our army, fight bravely to kill the thieves. , Contribute your strength, strictly guard your position, do not move rashly, victory must belong to our great Jin!"
All the soldiers roared in unison, and with the sound of the drum, they shouted in unison: "Kill the Hu, Kill the Hu, Kill the Hu!"
