Chapter 433: [Out of the Cage] (8)


Chapter 433 Escape from the cage eight As soon as Manninger's army moved, Green was keenly aware of something After all, he is a veteran general in the army, and although he has been shelved for many years, this mad dog's keen sense of smell has not faded much.

Just when Manninger scattered his cavalry and the Odin army besieging Grimm moved frequently, some generals in the army were deeply worried, worried that this was a signal that Manninger was finally going to launch a general attack.

But after looking out from the high platform of the barracks, Green suddenly burst out laughing maniacally Even the haze that had gathered on the face of this mad dog was swept away and replaced by excitement, excitement, and a hint of edge Sure enough, the Odin army began to move, but it was gathered towards Manninger's camp, and the large net besieged around Grimm was withdrawn by Manninger himself.

The next day, before it was dark, someone came running to tell Green with excitement on his face: The Odin people have withdrawn This news made all the generals in the army happy, but when Green heard it, he only smiled faintly and looked very calm.

He didn't panic, but carefully inquired about the sergeant who reported it, and when he learned that the Odin had left thousands of people behind, Green's eyes burst with a hint of essence "Left behind, is it the infantry or the cavalry" "The Army of Foot Combat" The sergeant who reported replied steadily.

When Green heard this, he slapped the table and jumped up, and the old mad dog's face was full of joy, and he laughed loudly a few times, and his face showed a trace of murder and hideousness "Okay, good, Manninger finally made a faint move, hahahaha" Some of the generals below watched the commander suddenly go crazy, and cautiously tested: "My lord, since the Odin people have withdrawn from the siege, let's also withdraw, the food reserves in the army are already a little insufficient, and it just so happens that the thousands of broken troops left by the Odin people are all foot soldiers, and it is also fortunate that if the cavalry is left, we will have to worry about them chasing and killing when we withdraw, but now we don't have to worry about this." ” As soon as Green heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly snorted as he looked at the people below "Withdraw the joke, Lao Tzu has been holding back for so many days, swallowing his anger, frightened, just waiting for this day, this moment is a great opportunity for our army to establish meritorious deeds, you let me withdraw the army, hahahaha, Sharba" With his last shout, a strong man with a majestic body was immediately squeezed out of the generals, it was Sharpa, the cavalry commander of Char's small group As a close confidant and good brother who has always followed Char to start a family, Char handed over his cavalry regiment to Sharpa to lead.

The remnants of the original Rodria cavalry, plus the horse thieves recruited under Nene, a reading cavalry regiment and thousands of cavalry, were handed over to Sharpa And this brave and honest and bold man is indeed worthy of the heroes of the Rodria cavalry, and now the generals in the big tent heard Manninger withdraw from the siege, and they were all thinking about the idea of retreating, but this Sharba, but he was gearing up, with a look of eagerness, as soon as he heard Green's call, he immediately walked out and made a flat salute.

In Char's army, the cavalry is a minority after all, only a few thousand cavalry, and it is impossible for him to support a pure cavalry regiment similar to the Rodria Cavalry Corps.

But Char attaches great importance to cavalry, in order to show the status of cavalry, Sharba, who only commands more than 4,000 cavalry, actually hangs the rank of a general.

At this moment, Sharpa came out, and with his military rank, he actually didn't have to salute Green, but Green was a veteran general in the army, and Sharpa still paid attention to showing respect to this mad dog everywhere.

Looking at Shalpa, Green's expression immediately became serious: "Five thousand Odin, if it is a field battle, your cavalry, can you eat?"

Sharpa's eyes suddenly burst into a fiery light, but he took a deep breath, not anxious, but suppressed the heat in his heart, and said steadily: "If the other party is a cavalry, I will also worry that the other party will not be able to fight and escape, everyone is a cavalry, and it is inevitable that there will be some accidents in pursuit."

But if the other party is infantry, thousands of infantry, my cavalry regiment will be beaten" Green listened, nodded in satisfaction, but gave Sharpa a deep look.

In my memory, this man is loyal to Char, and he does have the ability to lead cavalry, but the surname is a little reckless and anxious, but now it seems that it has been honed.

Green then sneered: "It's dark, let's do it first, eat the broken army left by Manninger, and then the army will pull out, we will continue to chase after Manninger and run Sharba, your cavalry regiment will eat this broken army, and immediately go south, I want you to bite Manninger's army to the death, and fight and go, pay attention to proportion, don't be surrounded by them, run and run, I don't want you to fight to the death, as long as you try to delay the speed of their southward speed, my army will naturally follow slowly behind, as your backing" Manninger did make a fool of himself.

Leaving the march to fight, there are two armies, must be used to serve as the elite one is the vanguard, open the road in the mountains, build bridges in the water, is a vanguard knife, ahead of the main force, must use the elite to bear, encounter the enemy obstruction, to be able to clear the way for the main force can not fall the morale of the whole army The two are the retreat of the army after the break, to prevent the enemy from counterattacking and chasing, the army after the break must use the elite, in order to stabilize the rear for the main army, to gain enough time, so that the army can retreat calmly, Not in danger of enemy counterattacks.

In the cold weapon war, the commander of these two types of troops has always chosen to use cavalry whenever he has a choice The reason is also very simple: needless to say, the vanguard is fast, the cavalry is fast, the mobility is strong, and it is necessary to have the momentum of wind and fire in advance.

The army after the break is served by cavalry, first, to ensure combat effectiveness, and second, after the completion of the broken task, the strong mobility of the cavalry can be used to ensure that it can be smoothly separated from the battlefield and not be surrounded and swallowed by others.

Manninger's stupid trick was that the 5,000 broken troops he left behind were actually infantry In fact, Manninger didn't really have a dizzy brain, but at this moment, he really couldn't help it.

There are thousands of cavalry with him at the moment, but he is worried about Xincheng, he just can't wait to fly to Xincheng, and he can't wait to rush to Xincheng in the blink of an eyelid.

So he gathered all the cavalry, and as the vanguard, he quickly rushed to the new city.

Those who are responsible for the broken will naturally only be able to use infantry.

Historically, after the infantry was broken, it was also a taboo thing for soldiers.

Because the troops who were left behind and cut off will inevitably have the idea that they are "abandoned" in their hearts.

And if it was cavalry, it would be good to run, but the infantry, relying on two legs, in case of any accidents, could not run, and it was inevitable that the morale of the army would be shaken.

When the break is over, most of them can't fight to the death.

Manninger didn't know this situation in his heart, but in this case, weighing the pros and cons, after all, it was the important surname of Xincheng above all else, and he even had a thought in his heart: even if the thousands of broken troops behind him were really eaten, as long as they could recapture Xincheng, it would be worth it Moreover, he still had some hope: the Byzantine army on the opposite side seemed to be short of food, and it had been besieged for so many days, and the morale of the army was naturally low But Manninger miscalculated, after all Although it is true that there is a shortage of food in Green's army, Green has always done one thing: his troops, the infantry units, have begun to reduce the rations every day, from 70% to 50%.

However, the cavalry of Sharba's headquarters was fully prepared for every ration, and a lot of supplies were provided Green has been in the army for a long time, so he naturally understands a truth: whether it is to pursue after victory, or to break through after defeat, he must rely on cavalry, so ensuring the combat effectiveness of cavalry is the most important thing That night, less than half a day after Manninger's army had left the division's new city, Green launched a counterattack that night Thousands of cavalry under the command of Sharba poured out of the nest and pounced fiercely on the broken troops left behind by Manninger News of the rout of the broken army reached Manninger's army in the middle of the night.

At this moment, his tens of thousands of troops, under his strict orders, took advantage of the night to step on the snow and march rapidly in the direction of the new city.

It has only been more than half a day since the army was launched, after all, it has not gone too far, and it is not too far from the broken rear troops, and the news transmission in the rear is also fast.

After Manninger vomited blood, his body gradually failed, his spirit was so weak that he could no longer even ride a horse, but could only sit in a car.

When the news of the defeat of the broken troops was delivered to Manninger, the cronies around him were worried that the bad news would make the patriarch angry and vomit blood again, but after Manninger heard the news, he was only silent for a while, and then sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Got it" The tone seemed as if he had expected this result for a long time.

This kind of speculation is not bad, and Manninger has indeed guessed that most of the thousands of people after this break are more likely to be more than lucky.

Since he had sent all the cavalry to the new city, he was ready to lose this broken army.

It's just that he didn't expect this broken army to collapse so quickly, and his army had only been gone for less than half a day, and the news of the rout came.

And what worries him even more is: to be able to defeat his thousands of broken troops so quickly, the combat power of this Byzantine army seems to be very strong, and Manninger immediately judged that the other party must have used cavalry, and it is also an elite cavalry with strong combat effectiveness, otherwise, the five thousand broken army left behind by him is not a waste, how could it be defeated so quickly Cavalry, hey, hey, cavalry This Byzantine commander is a guy with means, there is a shortage of food in the army, but he can still let the cavalry preserve such a good combat power, and he must not be a mediocre horn It's just that Manninger can't help it His cavalry had already set out from the main force and went south to the new city.

At this moment, although the army is marching with all its might, there is no cavalry in the army, even if the scouts and the guards around them are concentrated, it is only a few hundred horses, and such a small number of cavalry is really not enough to see.

Manninger realized that he had made a mistake, not that there were no cavalry left in the broken army, but that there were no cavalry left in his main army The current situation has made Manninger start to put himself in danger Although he had tens of thousands of troops by his side, he had no cavalry And the number of cavalry on the other side, it is said that there are as many as three or four thousand, tens of thousands of their own troops, if they set up camp, they are naturally not afraid, but at the moment they are on the march, and the morale of the army is also a little unstable Theoretically speaking, thousands of cavalry, as long as they are elite, in the field, it is not impossible to defeat tens of thousands of infantry The cavalry likes to "run and fight" the most taboo and "stand to fight", while the infantry is the opposite, most like to "stand and fight", and is most afraid of "running and fighting" the state of their own army marching in the field, which is the standard "running and fighting" situation Even if the other party doesn't have this ability, but thousands of cavalry are entangled to death, biting themselves twice, and they can't do anything about the other party After all, all the people left around them now are infantry, and people run when they fight, and the two legs can't catch up with the four legs In the current situation, I am completely passively beaten Faint move, indeed faint move If he orders another part to be broken, this is not good, since the other party can eat one of his own broken troops, he has the ability to eat another one The biggest taboo in this kind of thing is to add fuel to the fire, or directly use superior forces to eat the opponent's division of troops little by little to resist, which is the most stupid choice Even if Manninger had the means, he would be in trouble at the moment.

The current situation is no longer whether he can recapture the new city, Manninger even has to worry about whether his tens of thousands of people, in the state of the opponent's thousands of cavalry, can return to the new city completely At this moment, his state is like a large herd of slow-moving cattle, but the other party is a small group of wolves, although the herd is huge and the wolves are few, but the mobility and speed of both sides are just the opposite One mistake is completely passive And what Manninger didn't know at the moment was that there was not only a threat behind him, but also a bigger blow waiting for him to arrive To be continued 〗Hanyu Pinyin "" is simple and easy to remember:
