Chapter 322: New Ways to Play with Heavy Cavalry
Chapter 322: New Ways to Play with Heavy Cavalry
Looking at the 10,000 heavy cavalry in front of them, the two imperial marshals gritted their teeth and decided that they must not let this army leave alive today.
He was ready to deploy the heavy cavalry in the rear at any time, but Tang San in the distance saw Zhou Long's slightly raised mouth corners with his purple-gold magic pupil.
Then we saw 20,000 light cavalry behind the heavy cavalry, spreading out to both sides with powerful bows and crossbows in their hands.
Marshal Gelong of the Tiandou Empire secretly thought that something was wrong and wanted to send heavy cavalry to provide support, but it was too late.
Ten thousand heavy armored cavalrymen brazenly crashed into the steel fortress formed by the Tiandou and Xingluo armies, but were still torn open by the heavy cavalry. This tear directly triggered a torrent of more heavy cavalrymen breaking through the defense and rushing straight to the imperial cavalry regiment in the rear.
The Marshal of the Xing Luo Empire did not expect that it would be so easy to tear apart. In fact, this is easy to understand. The soldiers who survived earlier were obviously scared out of their wits.
A group of heavy cavalrymen with murderous eyes rushing towards you will make anyone who sees them feel weak in the knees, and they are shouting unified slogans.
The two marshals who saw this let the veterans in the back take the lead, but because the main defense was placed in the front, there was no defense in the back, which was one of the reasons why the defense in the rear collapsed so quickly.
This is not the point. Before these infantrymen could come to their senses, the scattered infantry became the target of unilateral slaughter by the light cavalry.
The light cavalry of the Wuhun Empire first used bows and crossbows to consume the enemy from a distance and then took the opportunity to get close and kill them with a single blow. Compared to the heavy cavalry of the Wuhun Empire, the light cavalry mainly used light weapons, which were also extremely sharp.
Heavy cavalry aims for blunt force damage while light cavalry aims for extremely sharp sword wounds.
The imperial cavalry in the rear had their nightmare. The cavalry was divided into heavy cavalry and light cavalry, which were mainly responsible for breaking the formation and flanking. Under normal circumstances, an army would have collapsed long ago under the impact of heavy cavalry and the flanking of light cavalry. The two imperial armies had not collapsed because they had seven divine aid formations in the rear, so they could keep their mentality stable. Of course, this was only the inner thoughts of the army in the rear, and the mentality of the imperial army in the front, especially the imperial army that had been baptized twice by the heavy cavalry of the Wuhun Empire, had already collapsed.
The soldiers of the two countries who were fighting against the cavalry of the Wuhun Empire in the middle killed all the cavalry from the Wuhun Empire after being pushed to the red line many times.
Even the two marshals and Dai Yutian's proposal to chop off their heads as a sacrifice to the flag was rejected by Tang San, who firmly disagreed with doing so.
Regardless of whether they are enemies or not, as far as opponents are concerned, this cavalry army can be fully described as soldiers. They have used their lives to interpret what a soldier is and what an iron-blooded warrior is on the battlefield.
Moreover, Tang San was afraid that if they really did that, not only would it fail to affect the morale of the Spirit Empire, it would even make them even crazier. Tang San was right, Zhou Long wanted them to do just that.
First use a small number of cavalry to test and then charge directly. Such an army is the first to go into battle without hesitation. What on earth is Zhou Long thinking?
Yu Xiaogang totally couldn't understand why Zhou Long did this. Wouldn't this make the other soldiers of the Wuhun Empire feel disheartened?
Bibi Dong was also heartbroken at Jialing Pass. These were the soldiers she had trained one by one. She didn't dare to say that she knew every one of them, but Bibi Dong had seen them all. They were sent to death by Zhou Long just like that.
Bibi Dong's heart was icy cold, and Zhou Long's mouth made her already cold heart even more disappointed. Zhou Long, who once dared not to kill anyone by mistake, was now no different from a bloodthirsty demon in her eyes.
Zhou Long was very happy when he saw the avalanche's hands shaking with fear. In fact, Zhou Long has indeed changed, but it does not mean that he has no bottom line. It can be said that Zhou Long is more transparent now. Whether it is Xingluo, Tiandou or even the current Wuhun Empire, they don't know and can't know that a heavy cavalry and an army of less than tens of thousands can achieve such a terrifying record.
Finally, there are the last 30,000 heavy cavalry, which are the foundation of the Wuhun Empire.
A total of 50,000 heavy cavalry and 50,000 light cavalry are the assets of the Wuhun Empire. It is more accurate to say that this is one of the trump cards of the Wuhun Empire.
But even with such a trump card squandered, the remaining 30,000 heavy cavalry still used their indomitable momentum to penetrate the heartland of the Xingluo Empire and Tiandou Empire's army. However, this time both empires sent out cavalry regiments, and the result was that the strongest cavalry regiments of both sides fought against each other at Jialing Pass, and neither of them gave in, especially the Xingluo Empire's heavy cavalry, which could actually fight the Wuhun Empire's cavalry on equal terms.
However, the Wuhun Empire has the advantage in numbers, and even strong countries like Tiandou and Xingluo cannot produce such cavalry.
At this time, the cavalry of the Wuhun Empire returned to the rear and the Wuhun Empire light cavalry came forward to harass, but before the two empire cavalry did anything, a new round of charge began. This time, the heavy cavalry of the Wuhun Empire had a great advantage, but it was not over yet. They returned again to change horses and charge again. Even if the two marshals shouted their throats out, the horses of the cavalry regiment were already very tired and obviously could not keep up with the pace of the cavalry.
The result was an inhumane massacre. As many cavalrymen from the two empires as came died, especially the heavy cavalry, and not a single one escaped.
The cavalry of the Wuhun Empire returned to change horses, and this time there was no force to stop them.
They shouted slogans and fought with the frightened central army of Tiandou and Xingluo. Behind the central army was their emperor. In other words, less than 100,000 cavalrymen were about to kill the core of the central army with nearly 3 million people.
Why didn't the soul master come out to help at this time? There are two reasons. One is to maintain balance and not to directly escalate the battle. The other is respect. Respect for the 50,000 cavalrymen who chose to die even though they were doomed to die.
Compared to the fierce battle between the two empires, Jialing Pass was much calmer.
The war ahead doesn't seem to have affected this place.
At this time, Bibi Dong came to Zhou Long and said nothing but everything.
Just ask whatever you want to ask, Zhou Long said bluntly.
Why? Bibi Dong said these three words with difficulty. Although she has become a god now, her emotions are still there and she will not remain indifferent when seeing 50,000 people die in front of her.
What do you mean by why? Do you want to ask why I sent 50,000 heavy cavalry to their deaths? Or do you want to ask why I was so cruel? Zhou Long said calmly and indifferently.
Both, Bibi Dong still answered so simply. It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she was suppressing the anger in her heart.
Why, are you feeling sorry for the 50,000 heavy cavalry or are you feeling sorry that such a powerful army died in vain? Or is it that the investment in the 50,000 heavy cavalry did not get the corresponding return? Zhou Long's tone became more serious.
