Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 154
When fighting from high to low, troops at high places will always have an advantage, bows and arrows will shoot farther and stronger, infantry can wait for work, and horses... will naturally gain faster impact speeds and use shorter distances Bring up the speed.

When Ma Chao led his cavalry to charge Xia Houshang's central army, he had already paid attention to the surrounding terrain.

Even according to his own horse speed, the enemy's horse speed, and the characteristics of the horses on both sides, he designed the tactics of each step in his mind.

This is the sophistication condensed by a middle-aged famous general who has played cavalry for half his life.

This is called "professional".

If Xia Houshang was still leading his cavalry in front of him, he might have reacted differently the moment he saw Ma Chao leading his team up the hill.

It's a pity that he has fallen from the horse at this time. Although he failed to kill the enemy with one move as Ma Chao expected, he has completed his tactical intention.

From the moment Xia Houshang fell from his horse, the fate of his cavalry was already doomed...

"kill--!"

咵 da da, 咵 da da...

The sound of galloping horses gradually became one, and the nimble Dian horse cavalry turned collectively under the leadership of Ma Chao, and launched a counterattack charge towards the Cao cavalry down the hillside.

Realizing that something was wrong, Cao Jun's cavalry turned around and tried to escape. In this state of being unable to speed up and sprint, fighting the downhill cavalry would only become a living target.

However, even northern Malaysia cannot increase the speed in such a short period of time.

Li Feisha under Ma Chao's crotch charged forward on the slope, and seemed to have regained the feeling of galloping when he was young. At this time, he took the lead and rushed towards Cao Jun fiercely.

"Little thief die!"

Ma Chao raised his spear and stabbed it, the cavalry spear accurately hit the neck of a cavalryman, the huge momentum tore off the unbroken flesh and blood, a big head fell off, and the blood gushed like a spring...

Ma Chao, who had regained his senses, rode his horse and galloped, picking out several cavalrymen in succession under the gun. It had been a long time since he had beaten Cao Jun so happily.

Although he won the battle of Hanzhong overall, he had all the soldiers given by Liu Bei, and it was not easy to use. In addition, his mentality at the time was also very problematic, and the fight was ugly...

The last time Cao Jun was beaten so happily was the last time.

With the help of the hillside, the Red Star Cavalry defeated Cao Jun's cavalry in one charge.

For a while, Cao Jun's cavalry fell off their horses one after another, and less than one out of ten managed to escape.

The newly established cavalry team won the first battle under the leadership of Ma Chao!

Although the cavalry of the Red Star Army didn't get horses for a long time, thanks to Liu Chan's insistence on training the soldiers of the Red Star Army with draft horses and inferior horses that could not be used on the battlefield, the riding skills of these veterans were not bad.

The 49 cavalry who fought with Liu Chan in Jingzhou are now in decent shape.

Especially Hu Li, this kid is a quick learner, and at this moment he is holding a horse spear, stabbing a cavalryman of Cao Jun from behind to the point of chilling.

And other cavalrymen are gradually finding the feeling of cavalry combat in actual combat.

The biggest difficulty for the assault cavalry in this era is not how to accurately kill the enemy on horseback.

It's about how to keep yourself from falling after killing the enemy...

Because the saddle is not perfect enough, and the double stirrups have not appeared, it can only rely on the strength of the rider's waist and legs and correct posture, otherwise it is very easy to be pushed down by the reaction force when hedging.

Liu Chan was well aware of this, but did not attempt to improve it.

Now there is no patent and technical protection, and things like saddles and stirrups are different from penicillin, and there is no way to form a technical barrier.

It is almost inevitable that it will be spread and imitated. Once Cao Wei is equipped on a large scale, the blow to his side will be devastating...

Not only did he fall off his horse, but he also witnessed the "death of his horse" with his own eyes. Xia Houshang had just been helped onto his horse by his cavalry, and he witnessed this scene that made his eyes go dark.

The training of a qualified cavalry is very costly and expensive.

Just by looking at his armor penetration rate, it can be seen that Baiqi is not too much for him, but it is enough to hurt his heart.

"Retreat!" Xia Houshang almost gritted his molars and gave the order, and he turned around and walked away without looking back.

Although it was far from the Queen of the Palace he had imagined, at least he successfully blocked the cavalry of the Shu army...

At this time, the main infantry pushed the two remaining Thunderbolt chariots and had successfully evacuated from the city. For the time being, no other soldiers and horses were chasing them. Xia Houshang hurriedly caught up with the main force and retreated northward.

Ma Chao and others were originally trying to attract the attention of the enemy and cover Liu Chan to save people.

He didn't know why Xia Houshang withdrew after seeing only his 100-man pony cavalry... In short, the result was unexpected.

Not only did he complete the task well, but he also wiped out a cavalry squad of Cao Jun and captured many horses and armor.

Xia Houshang withdrew, but the Shen brothers were not so lucky...

At first when they discovered that the Red Star Army was approaching from the rear, they did not launch an attack immediately, because Shen Dan found that the Shu Army was marching towards them completely undefended.

Even the leading generals of the Shu army seemed to be talking and laughing. He thought that these Hanzhong reinforcements had not yet discovered the Cao army in the north of the city, and were still kept in the dark.

While sending people to the north of the city to inform Xia Houshang, Shen Dan passed on orders, ordering his trilogy to keep vigilant, but not to attack the Shu army behind him.

If it were an ordinary army, Shen Dan's actions might cause mutiny, and the morale would drop at the last.

In the beginning, Liu Feng was called a traitor in the city, but later his performance made it clear that he was the rebel.

In other words, these private soldiers of the Shen family did not have this kind of identity, they only recognized the Shen family, so Shen Dan would not have any worries in this regard.

The front still supervised the attack of the young and strong, while the Shen family brothers led the rear troops to face the approaching Shu army, and did not make any adjustments to the situation while on guard.

"Brother Guan, is it almost there?"

"Brother Li, don't worry, just wait a little longer and get closer."

Li Er and Guan Xing, who were at the front of the team, talked freely, and they didn't look like they were about to face a fierce battle at all.

Guan Xing has been familiar with military books and classics since he was a child. Influenced by his father, he also has no airs about ordinary soldiers. He was quickly accepted by the soldiers of the Red Star Army, and they get along very well these days.

The prince is too busy on weekdays, and the time spent in the military camp is gradually decreasing. It is rare for Li Er to find another learned person who is willing to contact them.

Guan Xing admired Li Er's tenacity and loyalty very much. The two chatted happily along the way, and they soon became brothers.

The Shen family brothers, who didn't see any clues at all, just let everyone wear armor like this, and even the Red Star Army of many black armored soldiers gradually approached.

Two miles, one mile, two hundred steps, more than a hundred steps...

Shen Dan frowned, and finally realized that there was a problem, even if it was reinforcements, how could anyone drive the troops so close before talking with the general?

"slow……"

"It's now!"

"The whole army changes - kill the formation!"

Before Shen Dan finished yelling, Guan Xing and Li Er had already issued an attack order.

The Scarlet Star Army was right in front of the Shen family's trilogy, and they completed the transformation within a few breaths.

Where has the Shen family seen this?In their eyes, everything that happened in front of them was simply incomprehensible. How could it change so quickly?

tom tom tom tom!

The rapid sound of war drums sounded from the Red Star Army.

"kill--!"

Even during the fast running, the Scarlet Star Army still maintained the same formation.

The crossbowmen on both wings had already completed a round of shooting, and the crossbow arrows fired at close range took away dozens of lives in one round.

The archers in the formation also shot their arrows, and Shen Jiabuqu raised their shields and spears in a panic.

"Hurry up to meet the enemy! Meet the enemy!" Seeing that his subordinates were so unresponsive, Shen Yi yelled anxiously, and at the same time said to Shen Dan beside him, "Brother, retreat quickly!"

Even if it is a family private army, if the main general retreats before the battle, it will damage the morale.

Shen Dan still understood this point, and immediately said angrily: "As the commander, if we retreat at this time..."

Puff puff!
Accompanied by three sounds of skin piercing and flesh rotten, the arrows fired by the rhubarb crossbow pierced through the two of them one after another, and nailed the third person to the ground not far from Shen Dan...

Shen Dan directly swallowed back the last words, pulled his horse and backed away.

"Give it to me! Those who kill the enemy will be rewarded!" Shen Yi yelled loudly, and then began to retreat.

However, the Scarlet Star Army came from the west, and their rear was Shangyong City. At this time, the rear army suddenly encountered a sudden attack, and the young and strong who were attacking the city immediately fell into chaos.

The supervising team killed more than ten people in a row and barely stabilized the situation. The siege of the city was impossible. The supervising team drove the young and strong to withdraw and began to support the main force in the rear.

The north and east gates saw Cao Jun retreat, and the young and strong attacking the city naturally retreated to the west gate, and what they saw was the scene in front of them...

Although the Scarlet Star Army was small in number, it was as stable as a rock and as fierce as a tiger, killing the Shen family's tribe and retreating steadily.

For a while, the morale of the young and strong plummeted, and people began to sneak around everywhere. Even the supervisor team gradually began to be unable to control it.

There are hundreds of horses and horses in the north, thousands of people in Chixing in the west, and Shangyong City in the east...

Shen Jiajun, who was obviously several times stronger than the enemy, felt as if he was surrounded by heavy siege.

Now the Shen family brothers can only order the three thousand pieces of their subordinates to retreat south while killing, the young and strong people don't pay attention to them at all, and they don't understand their command flags.

At the same time, Liu Chan charged out from the south gate again on a black horse, and charged towards the Shen family army at the west gate alone from south to north.

Handing Liu Feng to the guards in the city to take care of them, and leaving the wound medicine produced by Uncle Wang and Chu, Liu Chan returned to the battlefield again!
