The Era of Generals

Chapter 472 Two troops unsuitable for urban warfare

boom!

Boom boom boom!

The earth trembled.

One hundred thousand heavy cavalry mobilized at once, and the shocking effect was indescribable in words. The mountains shook for a while, and it was like thunder roaring on the eve of a storm.

From the moment he discovered that the light cavalry led by Chen Shen was attacking, Xu Tianci didn't waste a moment, and directly launched his charge posture.

He knew very well that if the heavy cavalry couldn't run and their speed couldn't reach a certain level, they might not be able to defeat the light cavalry.

Light and heavy, these are two extremes. Once a heavy cavalry runs, it will be unstoppable, but if it cannot run, it will be killed by the more flexible light cavalry.

Xu Tianci is well versed in this, and also knows that the troops in his hands are not suitable for defending the city. For them, if they want to defend, they are actually attacking!

This is also the strategy that Zheng Yuanyun set for him at the beginning. At this moment, Xu Tianci has no pressure at all. Even if there is a problem, he is just faithfully carrying out Master Zheng's orders.

The 100,000 heavy cavalry were like a torrent of steel, and they didn't activate quickly at the beginning, but after all, Xu Tianci saw the opportunity early. He ordered the whole army to activate as soon as Chen Shen appeared, so it was still under Chen Shen's light. Before the cavalry troops collided with them, they allowed their own troops to reach the highest charging speed.

"kill!"

Wrapped in thick armor, Xu Tianci's eyes were blood-colored, it was bloodthirsty excited light, in his eyes, the opponent is not a light cavalry unit, it is clearly a thin piece of paper that he can cut horizontally and vertically That's all.

With the word kill, Xu Tianci yelled with confidence, as if in the next second, there would be a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood in front of him, which was also the origin of the bloody light in his eyes.

However, what Xu Tianci never expected was...

His kill word didn't seem to be an order to his own soldiers, but a signal to the enemy!

Just when the two sides were about to meet, and when the heavy cavalry had just raised their charge spears and were about to drink the blood of the enemy, the formation on Chen Shen's side suddenly changed!

point!

Light cavalry units are far more flexible than heavy cavalry. Even when running at high speed, they also have the ability to change the direction of action at any time.

If viewed from above, the two cavalry units are like two torrents, but in an instant, Xu Tianci's heavy cavalry turned into hard rocks, while Chen Shen's light cavalry became slapping rocks. waves.

Although the reef is majestic and immovable, the waves are also intact, only sliding away from the sides of the reef.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Tianci frowned. While running fast, he stared around and saw countless faces of enemy cavalry scattered in front of his eyes, feeling at a loss for a moment.

Could it be that they want to take advantage of the opportunity when their own side is not easy to turn around, and forcefully rush to the gate of Juhe City?

But, the city gate is closed!

Xu Tianci forcibly turned his head and glanced at the back door of Juhe City. Yes, it was indeed closed.

They can only choose to use offense instead of defense, so the troops have been deployed outside the city gate from the beginning, and the city gate has always been closed.

Even if the light cavalry has extremely fast and flexible movement speed, they can rush to the gate of the city before the heavy cavalry turn their horses.

But so what?

No matter how they were cavalry, cavalry wouldn't still be carrying ramming hammers on their horses, right?

Could it be that they wanted to smash open the city gate with a horse's head?

Or did they disperse and then launch a surprise attack from behind?

You have to be able to catch up.

Xu Tianci didn't believe that the speed of these light cavalry would be so fast that even after making a big circle, they could still chase to the back before their own side turned back.

And whether they can beat their own heavy armor is still unknown.

In other words, once the heavy cavalry raised their charging speed, Xu Tianci would be invincible in the face of these light cavalry. He was not afraid of what kind of attack the opponent launched from any direction, and he could take it no matter what .

Therefore, Xu Tianci, who was not panicked at all, did not ask the heavy cavalry to brake, but only after the light cavalry passed by his side, he calmly ordered to adjust the angle of charge.

Because the heavy cavalry is too heavy, although it is like a torrent when they run, they can see whoever is rushing, but also because of the weight, it is very difficult to change direction during the rapid charge. difficult things.

If it is forced to change direction, people may be fine, but the war horse, which is already under great pressure, can't bear it.

You know, every heavy cavalry not only has the heavy armor armed to the teeth, but also the horses are fully covered, and the weight of this alone is five or six hundred catties.

It is precisely because of this weight that once the heavy cavalry charges, the destructive power is almost the best among all arms.

But it is precisely because of this weight, the strength of the charge plus its own weight, if it is forced to change direction during the charge, it will bring a great burden to the horse, which will cause the horse to be overwhelmed and break its legs.

So Xu Tianci clearly saw the other party change direction, and he didn't choose to order the soldiers to chase after him, but chose the more secure way of changing direction slowly.

On the one hand, the speed of the heavy cavalry is maintained, and on the other hand, the pressure on the horses will not suddenly increase and accidents will occur.

After slowly turning the direction, Xu Tianci was overjoyed.

He saw that those light cavalry were really aiming to go around them and attack the city gate, but it was a pity that the gates on all four sides of Juhe City were extremely strong, even if they were hit with a hammer, the It takes a few more hits to break open.

How can they cause damage to the city gate with these light cavalry alone?

Xu Tianci actually didn't understand, it's true that they used cavalry to defend the city at the back gate, but why did Ouyang Lixing have to use cavalry to fight the cavalry?

Cavalry is not suitable for defending the city, but it is also not suitable for attacking the city. However, at the back gate of the city, two cavalrymen fought.

Xu Tianci, who turned his horse's head, saw that the light cavalry were swaying around the city gate, obviously underestimating the strength of the city gate, so after a moment of panic, the commander of the other side was also wise, immediately Order the entire army to retreat.

There is nothing wrong with this order, but the problem is that the direction of the opponent's retreat is exactly the direction of the charge that the side is facing after turning the horse's head.

So, this time, you guys have another try?

The blood in Xu Tianci's eyes reappeared, and the submachine gun that had been put down was raised in front of him again, and he laughed loudly and said, "Brothers, it's time to let these idiots have a taste of our strength!"
