Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 492
Knowing that the prairie people are uneasy and kind, Yan Xuelan has sent people to set up some small warning things around the team. As long as there is a suspected cavalry unit within the range, it will issue a warning.

Under Yan Xuelan's order, the two teams that took a short rest immediately re-formed, and the moods of those guides who had finally calmed down fluctuated again.

If there was nothing wrong with their ears, they should have heard what people said just now, that it was the prairie people coming over, and they were prairie cavalry. Looking at the defensive posture of these people, they knew that there should be a lot of them. They just got rid of it. The herd met the prairie barbarians again. They finally understood why the people who entered Beihao Mountain were missing. They probably encountered the prairie people and died unfortunately.No wonder so many people go looking for it but put themselves in it.

But even if they knew, they couldn't do anything. They were not advanced warriors, but just ordinary people. If they really wanted to deal with the powerful prairie people, they still needed Yan Xuelan's two teams.

This time, Luanfengwei and Fengchunying quickly formed a thick shield to protect everyone and prevent the possible shooting of grassland cavalry.

A vibration can already be felt on the ground and it feels very regular. This is the fluctuation that cavalry only produces when they approach.

Yan Xuelan was in the center of the circle, quietly watching the direction of the sound of horseshoes, she really wanted to see who this group of prairie people was.

Soon those cavalrymen wearing Beiyan costumes, but unable to conceal their prairie characteristics appeared one by one.

They have unique dreadlocks, bald heads, high cheekbones, high nose bridges, tall horses typical of the grasslands, and special bone bows, stone bows, wooden bows and the like that they hold in their hands.

No identification is needed to know that he is from the grasslands.

Don't underestimate the bone bows and stone bows in their hands. They look very rough in appearance and can only be said to barely have the image of a bow, but their power is not affected.

After all, the conditions of the grassland people are still worse than those of the Central Plains. In order to increase the production of weapons, it is okay to give up a certain appearance of beauty.

Not to mention that these ugly-looking bows and arrows are completely in line with the aesthetics of grassland men, and they are the bows that warriors should use. Although the bows of the Central Plains countries are beautiful, they are like wooden sticks. to adapt.

After these grassland cavalry rushed out, they did not shoot, but gradually lined up, and then quietly watched the Beiyan people's phalanx in place.

The two sides faced each other quietly.

Gu Da sat on the tall horse and walked out slowly. He seemed to be observing, but he was actually contacting the Golden Eagle to observe the Beiyan people's phalanx from the air.

He saw a very familiar tortoise shell formation appear in front of his eyes.

This tortoise shell array is called a tortoise shell by the prairie people, which is very annoying.

The shields of the Beiyan people can withstand the punctures of bows and arrows, and their shields are very strong and are specially forged for defense. The bows and arrows of ordinary grassland soldiers do not hit the shields and training targets too much, and they can only use the projectile method. Can do damage very well.

Of course, you can also choose to be tough and forcibly tear apart the army formation of the Beiyan people.

However, such a stupid choice will only have a very stupid ending, that is, the prairie cavalry suffered heavy losses. The precious lives of the warriors should not be wasted on the road of attack. That is what slaves should do.

What the warriors need is to break the formation and rush in to massacre.

The only way to deal with the turtle formation is by throwing it.

Gu Da is not interested in communicating with the Beiyan people. To put it bluntly, there are a bunch of grasslands that the Beiyan people can't understand.

Anyway, it was the prairie cavalry who bent their bows and nocked arrows one by one, and fired them in a projectile manner.

Thunderbolts of arrows fell.

Some hit the shield, and some shot through the gaps in the shield and hit the soldiers.

The grassland people's arrows are also very unique. Although they are not made of iron, their lethality is extraordinary.

There are also man-made barbs on it. After being inserted into the human body, it will hook on the flesh. If you try to pull it out directly with external force, it will only cause more serious secondary damage, but if you let it go, these barbs will Let the wound bleed, and the more you move, the more pain and injury you will experience.

If you want safe treatment, you must take it out immediately, and disinfect it as soon as possible.

Because no one can guarantee whether there is something painted on the arrow, such as poison, gold juice and the like.

Once these things enter the body, improper handling may cause various problems.

The firing rate of the prairie cavalry is very fast. They can fire all the arrows in their quivers quickly and continuously within a period of time.

It is estimated that not even half a quarter of an hour, the sound of the bow and arrow piercing the air disappeared.

The prairie man looked at the dense hedgehog-like phalanx in front of him and let out a piercing mocking sound. Although he couldn't understand the language, the laughter was full of malice.

Along with the laughter, there were also a lot of incomprehensible obscenities. Anyway, looking at the faces of those people spraying dung, one can imagine that the words were not good, and some people made obscene actions.

They ran away without waiting for the Beiyan people to react, and left with the rumble of horse hooves, as if they had come specifically to release them.

The guards of Luanfengwei were a little angry. The behavior of these prairie people was worse than those bandits and bandits they had encountered before.

I have to say that these prairie people are very mocking.Language barriers can also achieve such good results.

In fact, one of the main reasons is that this is the first time the guards have seen the vulgar behavior and words of the prairie people.

It was very easy for them to meet such bad guys when they were young, and they didn't have a good impression of them at all. Coupled with the stories of many colleagues, it would be difficult for these girls to have a good look at men who can only talk.

In addition, the prairie people's form of ridicule is a bit crude. It is obviously very unsightly, but others think it is very beautiful.

But once they have seen more, they will get used to it, and once they get used to it, they won't be angry. This is a stage that every first encounter with prairie people has to go through.

Yan Xuelan was very angry when she went to the battlefield for the first time, but she gradually got used to it. Anyway, she couldn't understand what they were saying, so she just treated them as foreign farts.

Even if the rain of arrows thrown over by everyone uses the tortoise shell formation, the top of the head is protected, but there will be no gaps at all. There will always be unlucky people who will be shot by the falling arrows, but no one will fall because of it. The muscles pierced by the arrows did not cry out, nor did they move. Some unlucky ones were shot through the shields and pierced their arms by the bows and arrows of the prairie cavalry.

Let the arm and shield be firmly embedded together.

Even so, no one fell down.

While resisting the rain of arrows, they endured it silently while taking pills to heal their wounds. The wounds on their bodies didn't seem to cause any pain.

After the prairie people retreated.

The soldiers stood up in unison and used their swords to cut off the arrows pierced on their shields.

The specifications of the grassland man's arrows are different from those of Beiyan.

Beiyan uses a unified standard of arrows, and the standards are unified. Unless they are general-level figures, they generally use unified bows and arrows.

The arrows of the prairie people vary in length and size.Almost each of them has a different bow. After all, the basic craft of making bows and arrows is something that grassland people must learn, and it is the same as the machete.

Unless the equipment of the prairie cavalry is uniformly equipped by their generals, more often their equipment needs to be prepared by themselves when they are called up to fight.

Therefore, Beiyan suffered a lot when fighting against the prairie people. The trophies were almost all cattle and sheep. Leather armor and the like could be modified, and other melee weapons could also be picked up. This is the long one. There is no way to recycle bows and arrows. Their shapes are too unique, and remaking them wastes time and money. Moreover, the soldiers are not used to using them, so it is better to continue to use standard equipment.

Yan Xuelan first ordered everyone to treat their injuries. The scratches were all flesh wounds and a little bandage would be enough.

Those who were shot were treated properly, the arrowheads were dug out, and ointments were applied and pills were taken.

Gao Shun had just observed these prairie people again, and found that they were not many, about 800 to [-] people, far less than them, and they had no reason to rush over to provoke them, so the prairie people must be playing some kind of conspiracy , their best way is not to move, to stay put, and not to let the grassland people lead them.

So he expressed his opinion to Yan Xuelan, but Yan Xuelan's words made Gao Shun not sure what to do.

Yan Xuelan clearly pointed out that the behavior of the prairie people is indeed luring them to attack, and the possibility of setting up an ambush in front is as high as [-]%.

But they have no other choice but to crash into the enemy's trap and fight them.

You know, they came to Beihao Mountain this time to destroy these prairie cavalry, not to defend a stronghold.

If this was a city or a camp, Yan Xuelan would definitely not order an attack. She was not stupid enough to run over and step on someone else's trap.But now there is no other way.If they don't chase them, they will never have the chance to wipe out these prairie people.

The prairie people will not be so stupid as to directly attack your team and confront you head-on, unless you fall into his trap, they will seize the opportunity to make a move when you are in a hurry.

Yan Xuelan and the others only have 4000 people, not 4, but 40. They cannot blockade Beihao Mountain and wait for these prairie people to be arrested.

They can only take the initiative, otherwise these prairie people will not take the bait.

Although Gao Shun has experience in military training and has participated in several battles, he does not have much experience fighting the grassland people. The infantry of the Yanwu Army are good candidates for attacking cities and territories, and they are also excellent choices for defending strategically important areas.

But the enemy's cavalry is worse, more often it is a defensive counterattack, and it is very difficult to take the initiative to attack.

Even if one becomes a warrior, it takes a certain amount of energy to run on four legs, let alone fight.

So Gao Shun's thinking is still relatively conservative?
If the current terrain is a grassland or a plain, Yan Xuelan would dare to come to a cavalry charge so that the people of the grassland can have a good experience. The cavalry is definitely not the only army that can gallop on the grassland. The troops have arrived.

But this is a mountainous area. If their riding skills are not improved, the grassland people will not be able to catch up, and they cannot afford a cavalry charge on the mountainous area.

Gao Shun also suddenly realized that it was his negligence.Without another word, he went back to adjust the Fengchun camp and wait for Yan Xuelan's order.

Since everyone has invited them, Yan Xuelan is not ready to refuse. Even if there is a trap ahead, she will go through it.

As for the guides who were led into the forest by them, at this time of crisis, casualties are likely to occur, and ordinary people like them may die if they enter.

There is no need to involve them.

They have also completed the task excellently, and they are no longer needed to serve Yan Xuelan.

Yan Xuelan called Chen Zheng, and asked him to arrange a few people from the action team to escort the guides out of Beihao Mountain. The battle that will happen next may be very bad, and it is not suitable for ordinary people to participate.

Chen Zheng selected a few elite candidates. Originally, he wanted to send Xu Xiaoxiao and Jinse out by the way. After all, Yan Xuelan had already made it through just now, and the prairie people had already set up an ambush. Well, Xu Xiaoxiao is okay, she can defend herself without any worries, but Jinse is not.

However, the two of them insisted on disagreeing, and Chen Zheng had no choice but to let three or five swift-handed team members escort the guides away, and chose to leave in the opposite direction to Yan Xuelan and the others.

After several of them left quietly.Yan Xuelan's team just set off and chased in the direction Guda left.

Then after walking for a while, I saw Guda's cavalry, and then they taunted, ran, and chased again.

This road is stop and go.

At night, Yan Xuelan and the others put on strict defense.However, the prairie people did not come to attack. Instead, they were very strange and allowed them to have a good sleep, and then continued their repeated exercises the next day.

Until the morning of the third day, Guda's prairie cavalry rested in place after arriving in the prairie early.

And Yan Xuelan's infantry phalanx behind was long overdue.

As soon as Fang found the enemy's figure, the guards and the Fengchun camp were ready to fight, the enemy stopped running, and there were already three thousand-man teams and three thousand grassland cavalry here, already gaining momentum Ready to go.

Seeing this terrain, Yan Xuelan was not only not worried but happy.

The grassland terrain was also the battlefield she wanted. This time, the grassland people were too clever to be clever.
