The two cavalry armies began to charge against each other without any fancy fancy.
The terrain is flat and wide, which is conducive to the cavalry to spread out the line, and since it is an excellent place for cavalry combat, it also means that this will be a place where it is easy to die, and the degree of death should be very fast.
On the one hand, it is a poor jingle and cannot be "heavy" at all, and on the other hand, it is a group of long arms like apes and brawn strength, which makes almost every one of them a sharpshooter on horseback.
Ke Cho, the young commander of the Qiang tribe who has a deep blood feud with the Beiliang Xu family, finally stopped deliberately suppressing the charge of the horse team, waved his big hand, blindfolded the horse with a black scarf, and the pace of the mount under the crotch suddenly increased.
The habit of blindfolding the horse in the charge in the Central Plains has never been popular, but it is an old custom that has been inherited for hundreds of years on the grassland, at the beginning it is to ensure that the war horse is fearless in the face of the Central Plains infantry army when rejecting the horse phalanx, and at the same time it can deliberately make the war horse "frightened", before the fleeting fierce collision between the cavalry and the cavalry, the cavalry whips fiercely, which can give birth to the war horse to burst out with greater foot force, and use the degree of the war horse to drive the penetration of the cavalry charge.
However, looking at the elite cavalry all over the world, I am afraid that only the Beiliang Iron Cavalry disdains to use this kind of "carving insect skills", which is due to the transformation of every military horse in Beiliang from raw to mature, and the major horse farms have poured countless efforts, of course, there are countless silver.
Behind every mature horse in Beiliang that finally sets foot on a large battlefield, one or even several war horses will die before.
On the battlefield, there was only the earth-shattering roar of more than 1,600 Qiang horses.
Compared with the two, the three thousand dragon elephant army, which is also a light horse, is particularly strange at this time, and the collective silence before the fight is a reason, and more importantly, they are simply outlaws who use light horses as heavy horses.
After the dragon elephant light cavalry carried the spear and charged, it went straight to the other side, and even gave up a light crossbow to splash the lethality of the enemy's cavalry Beiliang Iron Cavalry is good at fighting, and dares to fight to the death The Central Plains with soldiers, has always been good at riding and foot combination, the infantry is in the center, the cavalry is located on the two wings, the latter is not used for frontal formation, in addition to being limited by the natural factors of riding the bow strength inferior to the foot bow, especially the big crossbow, the main thing is that the biggest advantage of the cavalry itself is strong mobility.
In a long list of classic battles in the Spring and Autumn Period, this indisputable pattern of war was waved to the fullest.
As long as he is a general who can be crowned with the title of a famous general, even if he is the commander of the infantry army, and gives him a cavalry army of thousands of people, he can command in an orderly manner, which is probably the so-called long-term illness and cure.
At that time, a large group of high-level military generals in Liyang, who were ravaged by the war, could not ride or break the horse, so they were embarrassed to greet their colleagues when they went out.
But this kind of tactics of riding and walking, once moved to the place where the supply is difficult, it is inevitable that the water and soil are not adapted, when today's son took the initiative to start those few big battles against Beimang after ascending the throne, he suffered enough, many of the initial situation seemed to be a good situation, it was ruined by some wars born outside the main battlefield, taking Beimang Tuoba Bodhisattva and Dong Zhuo as an example, these two famous works, are relying on light cavalry to run thousands of miles long distances, and go around to the rear of the Liyang army in one breath, Directly smash one or even several trunk supply lines.
The famous generals of the Liyang Imperial Court, especially the cavalry generals, were very annoyed by this, but for some reason, there was never a genius general who was separated from the infantry army and went to fight hard with the Beimang cavalry, but even so, the cavalry must be cut out and take charge of the situation, and a series of works on the art of war derived from it still appeared, Lu Shengxiang, who was recruited by Zhao Yi to go to the bank of the Guangling River, and Xu Gong, who had never been able to fight outside the Saiwai, each had a military book released, but it was a pity that the secret was not passed on, but it was well-known within the military, Xu Xiao admired Xu Gong, the Longxiang general from the Gumu Xu family, and thought that this person should have been able to overshadow Lu Shengxiang, who "dominated the southeast coquettishness".
However, the high-level bigwigs in Liyang knew it in their hearts that if Chen Zhibao and Chu Lushan were given a chance at that time, then these two would undoubtedly become meritorious figures no less than the four famous generals of the Spring and Autumn Period on the new battlefield of Beimang, but at that time, even if the new emperor was selfish and willing to give Chen Zhibao the opportunity to show his skills, the big group of "founder" elders did not promise that there would be a successor to the Xu family.
In the perennial battle with Beimang for nearly 20 years, the Beiliang Iron Cavalry also gave birth to a set of highly targeted mature tactics.
For example, the Bei Mang cavalry has less crossbows and more bows, if it is not for the particularly amazing strength of the sharp soldiers, it is difficult to break the armor when the ordinary bow is eighty steps away, the two armies collide and rush, the Bei Liang Tie cavalry under the influence of Chen Zhibao, metamorphosis to directly abandon the bow and crossbow to shoot this process, with the superiority of the armor, let the reckless cavalry throw the shot, and their own side just bury their heads in the charge.
Therefore, Chen Zhibao once had an arrogant assertion that made the outside world feel incredible: under the premise that the strength of the troops was roughly equal or even slightly inferior, the life of the Beimang cavalry was only enough to live for forty steps After all, outsiders could not witness this scene with their own eyes, and they always held a strong skeptical attitude.
But it cannot be denied that regarding the precious experience of more than 10,000 pure cavalry and cavalry fighting against each other, the entire Liyang Dynasty is probably only blessed with the Beiliang Border Army.
Don't look at the Zhao court's pretending to be blind about the affairs of the northwest border, but every time the wind blows, Li Xifeng, who took office in the Golden Wisp Weaving Bureau, will take the trouble to quietly pass the secret fold and send it to the capital.
And the contents of these excerpts, Zhao Yi, the king of Guangling, and Zhao Bing, the king of Yan, did not know how many favors and how many relationships they had dredged before they were successfully bought, so that many staff members and strategists could ponder over and over again.
At the same time, the Liyang Imperial Court itself was not restrained, and simply regarded Beimang and Beiliang as imaginary enemies, thinking about how to truly resist the iron hooves of those war horses.
In the imperial examination of the Yonghui Spring, there were even similar related questions with great significance.
This led to a lot of fanciful ideas in the answer sheet, although most of them were considered to be scholarly nonsense, but among them, there was an argument that suddenly shone brightly after a few years of silence, that is, to fight the extreme against the extreme, the candidate who was famous in the imperial examination at that time proposed to tilt financial and material resources to show the deformed heavy horse, and strive to cross the threshold of 10,000 people, that is, to smash the pot and sell iron, but also to cultivate one or several heavy horses, and put it aside in the important town not far from the border pass.
His answer sheet was in the Liyang Imperial Court at that time, but in fact, almost at the same time, the Beimang royal court began to frantically use silver to pile up heavy horses, and it was not until many years later that the Liyang Dynasty realized that it was now Beimang's two royal tent iron horsemen named after the country, Yelu heavy cavalry and Murong heavy cavalry The number of heavy cavalry can reach the threshold of 10,000, but no matter how layman's civil officials, they also know that if they want to raise these two heavy horses, it is equivalent to cutting flesh and bloodletting on the country to feed these two big gluttony.
Because the real cost of heavy cavalry is not in the establishment, but in the raising of soldiers.
After realizing the fact that the Liyang Dynasty was forced by the public opinion pressure of the government and the opposition, especially the military department Gu Lu and the border army on the eastern front, they followed behind Beimang's ass to create the Duoyan Iron Cavalry and the Yanmen Heavy Cavalry, the former was less than 8,000 cavalry, and the latter was less than 5,000 horses.
As for why the scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam died inexplicably in a nameless alley, who cares However, if anyone knows about this secret, they should all sigh for it, a small article of less than 1,000 words written by an unknown Jiangnan scholar will affect the life and death of two million soldiers on the desert side.
Eighty paces away from each other, the front row of battle lines spread out like a raging tide, and the Qiang cavalry skillfully shot arrows with bows and arrows.
The sharp jolting of the horse's back during a fast charge, the armor of the enemy cavalry, and the lack of time to exchange shots in a rapid contact battle were all important reasons why mounted shooting was the icing on the cake.
The configuration of guns and spears in the regular border army of Beimang is not bad, not to mention Dong Zhuo's Dong family army, that is, those generals and the descendants of the pro-army who hold the festival order, they have completely reached the level of the elite border army of Liyang.
It's just that this Qiang cavalry is much more cold, not that Bei Mang is so stingy that he is unwilling to take out more than 10,000 refined spears, but even if he gives it to a Qiang cavalry who has his own set of familiar tactics, it will only add to the snake, and it is definitely not a charcoal in the snow.
The training of war horses is already a headache, not to mention the strength of cavalry horse warfare The relationship between the strength of the training of war knives and spears and the physical strength of the cavalry arms, how many battles and how many lives are needed to run in order to run in the best answer The precise area of the spear stabbing the enemy horse, the optimal angle of the sword chopping, and the appropriate weight of the armor are all different from person to person, all of which are university questions, so if all the Qiang cavalry suddenly replace the main battle weapon with a spear that is too extravagant and too unfamiliar, so that it drags down the consistent transfer of the Qiang cavalry, So once this Qiang cavalry arrives in Liuzhou, either it is lucky, it doesn't meet the Dragon Elephant Army, but it is a joyful trip, and if it is not as bad as it is now, the captain Jin Cheng doesn't have to think about it, turn around and run, and strive to sell those guns and spears for a sum of money.
Those remnants of the Spring and Autumn Period who left their hometown Hongjia and went north brought many secret casting skills to Beimang, but Beimang's large lack of iron made many craftsmen in the Southern Dynasty become hard-working women without rice.
Chen Zhibao once said: The Northern Barbarians who are short of guns and spears are just a group of foot soldiers on horseback It can be said that the Western Chu soldier Shengye Baikui, who is good at the matching of troops, has pushed the cruelty of large-scale wars to a peak step by step, so Chen Zhibao has divided the huge war into each small captain.
The latter not only remembered the names of each lieutenant under his command, but even their personal character and style of leading troops, as well as their overall combat strength under normal circumstances and their war potential in sudden situations.
"In ancient times, military people liked to describe the unpredictable nature of war in terms of rapid change.
Chen Zhibao has long been familiar with those changes.
It is well-deserved that he is the first person to use soldiers since Great Qin, a sage and his peers. ” This kind of beautiful words that sound bad on the street can be said by a random Jiangnan scholar who has read a few military books and admires the demeanor of a white-clothed soldier.
But in fact, the person who said this was Cao Qingyi, Cao Changqing, who was recognized as invincible in the chess game.
Liuzhou didn't hear the horn whimpering, and didn't hear the noise of the war drums.
Just quietly died in a rush contact battle.
The Qiang cavalry's two-wheeled long-range cavalry achieved a reasonable feat, but the size of the battle was unexpected, but the Qiang cavalry was unexpected.
When an arrow pierced into the face of a dragon elephant light horseman, the horseman's head was suddenly pulled back by the powerful arrow, and then he fell to his death.

The ownerless warhorse continued to rush forward by inertia.
Many Qiang riders cheered for it.
The arrow of a Qiang arrow knocked out a string of sparks in the cuirass of a dragon elephant light horse, but it failed to pierce it, but the luck of this soldier in the northern Liangbian was really bad, the war horse was shot into the neck of the iron armor gap by another extremely powerful feather arrow, the horse neighed, and the horse's body tilted slightly and crashed into the earth.
The light horseman who had rolled and unloaded his momentum stood up, the arm of his spear had been broken, but after he lost his spear, he quickly drew the cool knife at his waist, faced the Qiang riders who were only twenty steps away from bumping, and began to stride forward on a straight path Ke Cho felt a sense of powerlessness that penetrated deep into his bone marrow, not only because these two rounds of dense arrow rain only brought less than 100 casualties to the dragon elephant light horsemen, but also because even though these enemy horses could obviously use their spears to dispel the oncoming arrows, none of them made such a move that would damage the impact of the spears Not a single ride The two armies rode out suddenly, and the enemy and us were inseparable.
The recklessness and recklessness of the young commander brought ruin to the 1,600 horses that he and his clan had accumulated over the past twenty years.
Even if the Qiang cavalry saw that the opportunity was not good, the front-line tide front line facing each other took the initiative to quickly stretch to the left side, hoping to reduce the loss of the frontal battlefield with the degree of the Qiang cavalry.
The front line of the Qiang rider is slightly oblique to the left.
However, the dragon elephant light rider responded almost instantly, and the whole body leaned to the right to kill, and the momentum of the horse's hooves exploded undiminished in the change The drastic changes on the front of the war, apportioned to the positions of every two horsemen of the hostile army, are actually not much.
The Dragon Elephant Army and the Qiang Cavalry are embedded in each other's cavalry battle formations In the blink of an eye, more than 300 Qiang riders were pierced through their bodies by a single shot, and these Qiang athletes died before they could completely break away from their horses Among them, the corpses of dozens of Qiang riders were directly picked up by the dragon elephant iron spear and hung in the air.
On the line that symbolizes life and death, there is a burst of blood from the casualties of the Qiang cavalry.
There were also lucky Qiang people who escaped the spear raid of the dragon elephant light rider in the first row, but they were soon pierced by the spear in the back of the body.
Some of the Qiang riders who were more fortunate enough to survive a few more moments, even if they survived under the spears of the second row of dragon elephant light horses, were instantly killed by the light horses of the third row.
One of the Qiang riders was pierced in the shoulder by the second dragon elephant light rider in the front position, and one shook, and before he had time to rejoice, he was drilled into the neck by a third iron spear, and the body fell backwards, slid a short distance on the horse's back, and finally fell to the sand.
Wang Lingbao, the deputy general of the Dragon Elephant Army, directly shot out three sugar gourds.
This charge.
The dragon elephant rode as easily as a hammer chisel through screen paper.
With a slight flick of his wrist, Scarface Wang Lingbao slid the three Qiang riding bodies out of the iron spear, did not turn his head to observe the battlefield, did not even glance at the corpses on the ground, and continued to ride his horse forward to kill.
It was not far from the second Qiang cavalry.
Behind Wang Lingbao, the corpses of Qiang riders were all over the ground, full of blood.
After the master died in battle and fell from the horse, many Qiang horses galloped out for a short distance and slowly stopped.
More than 300 wounded and fallen dragon elephant army horsemen stabbed to death again and again those Qiang riders who had not yet died.
Some of the Qiang riders said words that the dragon elephant light rider couldn't understand, they should be begging for mercy, but no one showed mercy under the knife.
Since the general led a hundred horsemen out of Liaodong, for forty years, the Xu family iron cavalry has not had the habit of taking prisoners.
Except for the more than 40 horsemen at the most two ends of the front line of the 1,600 Qiang cavalry, the rest of the Qiang cavalry only died under the single charge of the 3,000 dragon elephant light cavalry.
The young commander who broke into Liuzhou in order to avenge his hatred and also to make a meritorious career also died, after shooting one person and assassinating two people.
One side kills very neatly, and the other side dies without dragging the mud and water.
Ke Jiao's original intention was naturally not to use the 1,600 horses accumulated by his clan in the past 20 years to pave the way for Jin Cheng's future soaring in the Beimang court.
This Qiang athlete, who is accustomed to enjoying victory on the grassland of the Beimang border, remembers the deep hatred of the sea of blood twenty years ago, but forgets what kind of existence is the enemy who wants revenge.
Before leaving his hometown, which could only be regarded as a foreign land in the final analysis, he had heard that the Dragon Elephant Cavalry had killed most of Gusai Prefecture last year, but he had also heard from many Southern Dynasties that it was just the negligence of the guards of several major armies in Gusai, and he also heard that as long as Dong Zhuo or any general's soldiers and horses were dispatched, none of the Dragon Elephant Army that went deep into the hinterland would definitely not be able to return, and the Beimang Border Army would throw those severed heads on the border between the two countries.
Ke Cho came for revenge, but unfortunately, his young son, who was still waiting for his father to come home on the grassland, could only wait another twenty years to continue to take revenge.
For the Qiang people, the history of exile in the past 100 years has been one of continuous walking from one foreign land to another.
He lay in a pool of blood, the sun above his head blinding.
Then a shadow appeared above him, a dragon-elephant rider with wounded shoulders one high and one low, and he struggled to lift the sword that bound his arms.
The light rider in the captain's costume seemed to show Ke Shu's futile resistance, frowned, and cut off the head of the young man with a knife, and after a little thought, chopped off the corpse's right hand.
Then the lieutenant and many dragon elephant light horsemen who were still ready to fight, after clearing the battlefield, looked for a suitable war horse, turned on the horse, and started charging again.
In the many rich places on the Central Plains, no matter who kills whom, most of them will be full of intrigues and tricks, that is, gangs and gangs to the death, and perhaps there will also be competition between government backers and the secret instigation of conspirators.
In the final analysis, there, killing people is not happy, and dead people are not happy.
But on the next frontier, the dead will be simple, and as fast as the iron hooves of the crossbow.
After killing through the 1,600 Qiang cavalry team that had killed themselves, under the leadership of Wang Lingbao and two school captains, the pace of the war horse of the dragon elephant light cavalry slowed down and increased with implicit regularity.
In this way, the war horse can fully exert the second wave of momentum to ensure an effective pursuit.
This is the invisible difference between a famous general on the battlefield and a mediocre general.
War, especially a local battle, of course, needs 10,000 enemies and 1,000 enemies, but it also needs generals like Wang Lingbao who are familiar with the rules of the battlefield.
Without the former, the battle would be more fortunate, but without the latter, there would only be a rout.
About half a mile away, although the commander Jin Cheng was completely dumbfounded, this middle-aged Qiang horseman, who had more battlefield experience than Ke Cho, did not have any sluggishness, and without saying a word, he led the Qiang cavalry to retreat around the arc.
The reason why they didn't turn around and flee after stopping their horses was because the dragon elephant light horse, which had a negligible loss of combat power, did not allow them to waste this little bit at all.

Wang Lingbao calculated the distance between the two sides and the war horse in his heart, and pinched the horse's belly, wanting to go to Xu Longxiang's side to say what he thought.
But the young commander of the Dragon Elephant Army had already raised his arm and made a simple gesture that everyone in the Northern Liangbian Army knew.
Ride fast to intercept Xu Longxiang, who didn't show too much exaggerated combat power in the previous rush, just hacked three Qiang riders to death with that sword, and they all chopped off their heads with a knife.
When Wang Lingbao saw the coach jumping high, he abandoned his horse and began to drag his knife and run.
Wang Lingbao smiled, a little crying and laughing, our coach is really helpless.
After Xu Longxiang made that gesture, the Dragon Elephant Cavalry behind him, who had been deliberately keeping the team neat, finally changed.
More than 400 horsemen, with more explosive horses, rushed out of the army in an instant.
These elite cavalry decisively followed the commander of the god of war in their minds to intercept and kill the Qiang cavalry army, which still had more than 7,000 troops.
The wealthy family pays attention to the fact that the country can be destroyed, and the inheritance of one family and one surname cannot be extinguished.
But for an army, the backbone supported by countless martyrs cannot be broken The backbone of the Northern Liang Iron Ride.
Rather crushed constantly.
As for whether Beimang has the ability to smash this backbone, then they have to strangle each other.
As Xu Longxiang was running faster and faster, a giant black tiger rushed to his side.
Then the four hundred fast riders behind the black-clothed young man, and the more than two thousand dragon elephant light riders behind him saw an extremely strange scene.
Xu Long bent over like an unabated hand, grabbed the two legs of the black tiger with both hands, and with a twist of his body, he smashed the black tiger towards the center of the Qiang cavalry army The huge black tiger crashed to the ground, and then kept rolling.
Raise countless dust on the earth.
Countless muddy corpses and a large number of people turned on their backs.
The corners of Scarface's Wang Lingbao's mouth couldn't help twitching.
Those guys who are hit will definitely hurt.
When the four hundred fast horsemen in front were about to catch up with the tail of the Qiang cavalry army, Wang Lingbao, the head of the back, glanced at the big pit that was blown out by the black tiger before, and on those muddy corpses, huge blood flowers bloomed. “”:
