Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 104: When the enemy is tired, I attack; when the enemy retreats, I advance!

How to improve the combat effectiveness of cavalry!

This is where he has focused his efforts on military affairs since he ascended the throne.

From the beginning, he expanded Shanglin Garden, personally trained the best war horses, and trained the most tenacious warriors. He even let them learn from the Xiongnu people, eating and sleeping on war horses...

At the same time, in order to narrow the gap between war horses.

He even selected breeds from all over. When he heard that Dayuan had divine horses, he spared no effort to spend everything he had. While opening up the Western Regions and subduing a number of small countries in the Western Regions, he also wanted the Han Dynasty to have its own "celestial horse"!
However, although the Arabian horse runs fast, it is a rare good horse!

But the endurance is not enough.

And because the number is too small, there is no way to match the entire army.

Not to mention, like Liu Jing, in just one month, he trained the refugees' riding skills to the same level as elite soldiers.

of course!

He was very clear that Liu Jing's strange and bizarre fighting methods from beginning to end also played a big role in this.

From showing weakness to the enemy, to the batch harassment last night.

While giving yourself enough rest, you can also prevent the other person from getting any rest.

But the premise is what the officials just said - the superb riding skills!
And just when Liu Che was thinking about this...

"Report! Emperor Jing's grandson and his men have officially begun their attack. They have already eliminated the scouts of General Ershi's army!"

In an instant.

All the officials were shocked and looked at the sand table again...

Clear out the scouts, are we going to take action?

really.

Not long after, the messenger brought news again!

"The Emperor's grandson is only six miles away from General Ershi's troops!"

Are we really going to fight?

"Has the Emperor's grandson finally been unable to bear it?"

"That's right, it's time!"

"General Ershi must still have the strength to fight, and he may even have a 60% chance of winning!"

"What do you mean by 60%? As long as the two sides fight, the charge of those warriors will be enough to make all the efforts of Jing Huangsun and his men go to waste! And by the way, we can tell them that the gap in strength cannot be made up by these petty tricks."

Some officials who are completely on Li Guangli's side are still responding firmly.

but……

Unlike before, not many officials cater to him now.

Those who could be here were all veterans who had experienced the battlefield... but they knew too well how frustrated General Ershi and others were under those strange tactics...

Everyone continued to wait.

Sure enough, just over an hour later.

The message from the messenger came again.

"Report! Emperor Jing's grandson did not attack with his entire army. Instead, just like last night, after General Ershi and the others reacted, he left again..."

"What? Are you coming again?"

While the ministers were surprised, just by putting themselves in the other's shoes, they could feel the incomparable frustration.

"Report! Your Majesty, General Ershi has begun to shrink his camp and seems to have started to take turns defending... and the center also seems to be resting."

The news came one after another.

What made them feel relieved was that Li Guangli finally "got it" and followed suit... and simply ignored the "harassment"!
However, before they could think about what Emperor Jing's grandson would do next.

Another piece of news came again.

"Report! This time, the Emperor's grandson used horse archery, and General Ershi's side has begun to suffer some damage."

As soon as these words came out.

Liu Che stood up suddenly.

Mounted shooting?

What surprised him was not Liu Jing’s decisive attack, but simply these two words.

You know, it is difficult for cavalry to keep both hands free when they are running fast. It is more like throwing arrows casually than shooting on horseback.

Otherwise, if the speed is slowed down a bit, the elite soldiers on Li Guangli's side are not fools.

however.

Judging from the emergence of this news, it seems that Liu Jing's side still has the upper hand in the battle?

"Strange! Strange!"

At this moment, almost all the ministers, including Liu Che, obviously realized the biggest mistake.

……

at the same time.

Li Guangli didn’t sleep well at all!

The sunlight is hot and the light is dazzling. Even if you close your eyes, you can still see the eye-catching red through your eyelids.

Moreover, because they were wearing armor.

It was hot and stuffy, and they would never choose to train at this time of weather before.

But now he could only lie on the ground wearing his armor that was hot from the sun. He wanted to sleep very much, but he couldn't fall asleep at all.

The flies outside would come over to harass us from time to time.

Even the news just came that there were arrows. When he heard the news, he had to get up and mount his horse again, dragging his already exhausted body, and cheering up his men again, ready for a decisive battle!

however.

When he ran out, he saw that the elite soldiers who had chased him out had come back again... At a glance, he saw that quite a few men had been lost!

"General, we can't go on like this, we must fight them to the death!"

Beside Li Guangli, some soldiers could no longer hold back.

But Li Guangli had no worries.

The current situation is that as long as he can't catch up with them, the initiative will always be in the hands of the other party.

But during this period, no matter how he prepared and induced.

But the other party didn't fall for it at all, and continued in this way...

"I'm going to have to think about this! Really think about it!"

now.

Li Guangli pondered for a long time, and suddenly, he made up his mind.

This really can't go on any longer.

"Step back first..."

Li Guangli spread out the map of Shanglinyuan and found a building there.

"From now on, retreat here immediately!"

"They have invaded us repeatedly, so I'm going to place a big bet this time!"

"From now on, the three thousand soldiers will take off their armor and rest. The horses must also rest. After one night, when they are fully energized, we will fight to the death!"

"They can show weakness to the enemy, and I can also show weakness to the enemy."

Li Guangli had obviously made up his mind. He looked at the two deputy generals in front of him.

"Wei Kang, Zhao Qisheng, you two will lead two thousand soldiers. From now on, stay outside and defend the perimeter. No matter what, you must defend it with all your might. If necessary..."

Li Guangli did not say the last words, but both of them understood what he meant.

It was clear that even if their team was "annihilated" this time, they had to ensure the remaining 3,000 people...

Do not!
Now there are no longer 3,000 people, but more than 2,700.

Because just before that, they had already started to suffer losses.

just now.

As long as they can recover to their heyday, even these two thousand people will be the "bait" released!
They just need to delay them and wait for Liu Jing's five thousand troops to rush over.

This battle is about to be decided!

only……

Facing Li Guangli's eyes that were forcing them to agree, for some reason, Wei Kang and the other two did not want to agree.

The reason is simple. If they are defeated early, even if they win, they will probably miss out on the biggest "reward".

But at this moment, Li Guangli didn't know whether he didn't think about this or did it on purpose.

He stared at Wei Kang and the other man, and after they did not respond for a long time, he snorted coldly.

"Don't worry, if you win, I will clearly distinguish rewards and punishments!"

After receiving this promise which had not yet been confirmed, Wei Kang and the others could only grit their teeth and agree immediately.

And now...

Li Guangli and his men began to retreat as planned.

However, Liu Jing's team took advantage of this opportunity like a pack of wolves chasing their prey.

He hung behind their retreating position, rushing up from time to time, but not getting close, and instead shooting cold arrows at them.

These arrows have been processed and the tip has been blunted. If they hit the armor, they will leave marks. According to the previous agreement, anyone who hits the fatal parts such as the chest or back will be considered "out".

But even so, if the bullet hits a vital part, it may cause death.

Under the gradual erosion.

Liu Jing's side gained nearly 200 more combat achievements...

Soon, Liu Jing also noticed their thoughts.

At first he just continued to test the waters, but as he saw more and more clearly, he realized that "most of Li Guangli's men" were retreating.

There is only a small part at the rear.

Liu Jing made a prompt decision!

"Raise the knife!"

In an instant, with bursts of clanging sounds, the blunted long swords, including some spears and lances, that they brought with them were clenched tightly.

"Come two hundred steps closer and fire all at once!"

"Get a hundred steps closer and charge immediately! The horses will not stop, and after charging, they will come back from the left and right!"

"Remember, only charge once!"

After Liu Jing made up his mind, he no longer hesitated.

The stage of harassing the enemy when they are stationed and attacking them when they are tired is almost reached.

Now is the time when the enemy retreats and we advance!

Li Guangli wanted to take a break, but he would not give them this opportunity.

From the beginning until now, the soldiers have been waiting for this moment.

Hearing the news at this moment, everyone was extremely excited.

They had almost stood up from their horses, waiting to fight with all their might.

During the training in Shanglinyuan this time, they had been training for too long to use "heavy weapons" to fight light weapons. They even needed to hold the blunt knives in their hands with both hands, and a chop from them was no less powerful than a hammer!

Every inch is longer and every inch is stronger!

One hit and go!
They have been looking forward to this moment!
