Chapter 849: "·Strong crush"


Silence is a virtue, but silence in front of the person you like is a kind of cowardice.
Rabin Deran Tagore (Indian poet, philosopher and Indian nationalist)
The annihilation of the four thousand soldiers of the former army did not fundamentally hit the fourteenth legion. The loss of the two weakest teams in the area can only be regarded as an offensive defeat in Louis’ eyes. After all, he has eight more elite main teams. The team did not enter the fight.
Even so, the calm stability and degree of advancement and retreat displayed by the army of Quintus still caused a trace of fear in Louis, who had been full of confidence; Louis, who had been in his life, felt that this army in front of him looked at everything. Unlike a large army of recruits, it is more like an elite division that has stood the battlefield.
"Go to order and let the left and right armies immediately outflank the flanks." The slightly disturbed Louis, while commanding the main force of the Chinese army, continued to advance, while ordering the personal soldiers around him: "Tell them that they must rush before the war. Defeat the enemy cavalry!"
The tens of thousands of cavalry on both wings of the Quintus army is definitely the most threatening enemy for the 14th Corps of pure infantry; in order to reduce this potential threat that may be difficult at any time, Louis decided to let his left and right wings The troops attacked first.
The formation of cavalry is much more difficult than that of infantry, not only because the formation of cavalry requires higher costs, but also because the formation of cavalry's combat power is not easy; the basic training of infantry requires only three months, and the basic training of cavalry is the least It takes more than half a year.
The so-called basic training refers to the newly recruited trainees who have initially mastered the combat tactics of infantry or cavalry; to learn more combat skills, it requires a long period of learning and the accumulation of actual combat experience, which can never be learned in a short time of.
In view of this, Louis believes that Quintus can train recruits into good infantry and archers in one month, which is already very valuable. As for the 10,000 cavalry who are active on the flank, at best, they are nothing more than their appearance.
With the infantry of 8,000 into half a year, and actively attack 10,000 cavalry for one month, the possibility of winning is still very high; not to mention, Louis’s order to his left and right army is not to destroy the enemy’s cavalry, but only Defeated the enemy cavalry.
The two armies of the fourteenth legion that received the order immediately increased their marching speed and flew directly towards the enemy two-winged cavalry not far away; in this regard, Quintus did not intend to let his own Cavalry, attacked by Louis infantry.
As the king of the cold weapon era, cavalry has never been a defensive arm, and the unprecedented attack is the cavalry's proper posture. In the face of the aggressive force of the Fourteenth Army, Quintus, who decided to stand up for the battle, decided immediately. Fight back!
"Order, the two-wing cavalry immediately defeated the two-wing troops attacked by the fourteenth legion!" After ordering the commander, Quintus added another sentence: "The way of defeating is mainly based on outrage, and try to avoid direct contact, so as not to There were casualties."
Even if it is a contest of the nature of military exercises, it will cause a certain number of casualties in swordless battles; especially the cavalry units that are difficult to control when charged, once rushing into the advanced army group, it will inevitably cause very heavy casualties to the infantry.
Although the lances in the hands of the cavalry have been replaced by wooden sticks, the trample and impact of the war horses cannot be changed; a little carelessly, the left and right armies of the fourteenth legion that are fighting the cavalry directly will be affected. The trample and impact of runaway warhorse.
In the final analysis, the real purpose of this contest is not to test who is stronger in the army of Quintus or Louis, but to prove that Quintus is qualified to be the commander of the army to lure the enemy; therefore, the number of deaths must not appear in The contest.
Bai Feng wouldn't care much about the injuries that would inevitably occur during the battle. With the presence of the war doctor Hua Mu, no matter how seriously wounded, the wounded can be quickly recovered; only the unfortunate soldiers who died in battle can't be saved by anyone .
If there is no concern in this regard, then the fighting power of the 30,000 trained troops under Quintus, just the full charge of 10,000 trained cavalry, is enough to wipe out the 14th Army of Louis, this is the infantry and cavalry The gap between!
Surrounding the left and right armies of the 14th Legion with 10,000 cavalry, each 5,000 cavalry needs to surround 4,000 infantry. This task is not really a difficult task for the cavalry. They are very easy to target. Charged.
In fact, the moment the cavalry under Quintus dispatched, Louis regretted sending his left and right armies to take the initiative to attack; Louis is an infantry general, but this does not mean that he does not understand cavalry. On the contrary, he understands cavalry. It's quite profound.
The reason why the Fourteenth Legion needed to be rebuilt was not because they were destroyed by the Jianzhou Jurchen Eight Banner Cavalry who invaded the empire, and they were almost destroyed by the whole army. Louis, who had eaten a long and a wisdom, while rebuilding the Fourteenth Legion, Naturally, it takes a lot of effort to understand the cavalry.
The phrase that you know yourselves and fight each other is certainly not in this world, but there are some words that make sense of it; if you want to defeat the Eight Banners Cavalry’s revenge and revenge on the shame of Louis, if you don’t know anything about the cavalry, that is the most incredible thing. .
It was precisely because Louis knew enough about the cavalry that he could see at a glance the truth of the cavalry under Quintus; the neat queues, high posture, elaborate horses, and the noise of the roar, all told this one. The cavalry is powerful and powerful.
Knowing that he was under the control of the left and right armies of Louis, the confident pride on his face had already been replaced by speechless bitterness; from the moment he saw the mighty enemy cavalry, Louis knew that his fourteenth The legion was defeated today.
Louis, who never gave up easily, the most battle he has fought in his life is a battle that he knows will lose; whether it is against the Eight Banner Cavalry or the current battle with the Quintus army, he will fight to the best of his ability. Last minute!
Facts have proved that Luis’s predictions were not wrong. His left and right armies were just half way through, and they were surrounded by the cavalry troops under Quintus; the encircling circles of the cavalry galloped out, forcing the trapped infantry to move a little. Not dare to have it.
"Alas... I didn't expect to be my fourteenth legion, and achieved his reputation as Quintus." Louis, who was helpless and sighed, turned his head and said: "The Chinese army attacked with all strength! Even if it was defeated, we would also fight The spirit of the Fourteenth Army is coming!!!"
"General..." Wen Yan's stunned captain, who seemed to remember the tragic battle half a year ago, said with a red eye to Louis, he solemnly said: "I will wait for the oath to follow the general! The battle is dead! !"
"Oath to follow the general! Death to the end!!!" "Oath to follow the general! The battle to the end!!!"......
The roar that rang through the battlefield made everyone watching the battle, including Bai Feng, feel the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Fourteenth Legion; this battle is not a real battle, and suddenly at this moment, it becomes tragic stand up.
"No wonder he was able to become the oldest commander of the empire, and it is still a bit extraordinary." Quintus, who smiled with full smile, ordered expressionlessly: "The archer withdrew from the rear, let us use a game Fight hard and hard and show respect to them."
"Nuo!" The herding soldiers immediately went down to the infantry who formed three battle fronts to convey Quintus' latest order.
