The White Horse Raids the Three Kingdoms

With the towering banners flying, the sound of horseshoes was crisp, endless gray smoke was trampled, and with the power of thunder and rolling stones, they rushed forward brazenly.

At the end of the avenue, billowing smoke and dust lingered, and many war horses and human heads appeared and disappeared in the mist.

A marching army, like a ghost escaped from the underworld, is ferociously carrying an unparalleled murderous aura.

The dark red battle flag that has been soaked in blood and has dried up is rolling like a huge wave. The red flag is particularly eye-catching. There is a big tall character embroidered on the flag, and the smell is killing In other words, this is a victorious army.

As the main general, Gao Zhi took the lead.

Behind him, thousands of troops and horses lined up, following like a shadow, this is an elite with strict orders.

From a distance, the banners are flying, the queues are neat, people are like dragons, and horses are like tigers.Majestic!

These cavalry are the elite of the elite.

They are generally under [-] years old, and their height is basically more than seven feet five inches. They are physically strong, surpassing ordinary people, good at riding and shooting, nimble and flexible, and can maneuver in advance and retreat.

In the Han Dynasty, there were already light cavalry and heavy cavalry.

The light cavalry basically has no armor, and their weapons are mainly bows and arrows. They are equipped with relatively short horses.

Now under Gao Zhi's command, the combination of Baima Yicong and Bingzhou wolf cavalry has the advantages of light and heavy cavalry at the same time.

It is also true that during Gao Zhi's period of time, he can be regarded as galloping across the battlefield.

After all, the cavalry is a unit or unit in the army that performs tasks on horseback.It can fight both on horseback and on foot.

Generally speaking, an elite cavalry is enough to undertake tasks such as frontal assault, roundabout encirclement, pursuit, and rush. Its actions are light and nimble, and it is less affected by terrain and weather.

The only disadvantage is that there is no double-sided stirrups. After riding for a long time, it is easy to hurt the buttocks.

To be precise, this era is not without stirrups, but it is not so much a stirrup as a pedal.

Because this kind of thing is generally only used to mount a horse. When riding a horse and riding a horse to fight, the rider relies more on the strength of his legs and the saddle under his buttocks to fix himself.

As for how to play riding and shooting without stirrups?How do you hold a knife with both hands?

This is obviously no problem at all. In fact, the biggest function of modern bilateral stirrups is not to fix them, but to save energy.

You must know that although there is a saddle, riding a horse for a long time is very tiring to the human body.For example, no matter how suitable a horse is for riding, it will still feel bumpy when it travels, and modern people can't stand it after two or three strokes, let alone the cavalry of this era.

Of course, bilateral stirrups are standard equipment for cavalry.

With double-sided stirrups, people can step on the stirrups when walking, so as to reduce bumps and fatigue.At the same time, when fighting, having stirrups is equivalent to having a point of strength, which can undoubtedly make the power of fighting immediately greater.

After all, the main function of the stirrup is to reduce the physical exertion and fatigue of the rider while riding a horse, and even enhance the rider's flexibility when riding a horse.

The stirrup can be said to be an epoch-making invention.

In military affairs, the appearance of stirrups made the cavalry's close combat relatively easier, and was conducive to the cavalry's long-distance march.It can more effectively play the advantages of good mobility and strong impact of cavalry.

In fact, in today's Gao Zhi's view, the invention of stirrups is actually very simple.

Because strictly speaking, standing on the shoulders of giants, those things don’t have any technical content, whether they are made of wood, copper, iron or simply made of rope, they don’t have to be all Copper.

The only troublesome thing is the function of this thing.

Before there is a complete horse grazing land and a systematic cavalry training system, it is simply an enemy to come up with this technology.

Even though Lu Bu has won Bingzhou now, his strength is still far behind Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

If the two-legged stirrups are released, Yuan Shao and the others will grow the fastest in strength, and the gains will not be worth the losses.

The reality is cruel, it is not a smooth journey, and there is no need to think about the future.

Thinking about the novels he read back then, Gao Zhi wanted to laugh a little. In those novels, the modern otaku who had just time traveled would kill people without blinking an eye as soon as he came to the battlefield.

In a short time, you will be able to challenge Guan Zhang and Zhao Lubu. As everyone knows, where does the aura of a modern ordinary person compare with these fierce generals and famous generals who have been killed in the field of life and death?

I'm afraid I don't even have the guts to look at people.

Although now, Gao Zhi himself is not afraid of that kind of momentum, but he still finds it funny.

Furthermore, in the period of the Three Kingdoms, identity was also an important thing, not just casually, with a shock of the tiger's body, a famous general accepted his head and worshiped.

In real life, these people are not NPCs in the game, they have their own ideas.

"Report!"

Not long after going on, on the official road, a horse galloped towards him. When approaching, he jumped off the horse's back, ran in front of Gao Zhi's horse, and cupped his hands.

"General, there is an emergency situation."

Gao Zhi suddenly turned his face to the front, grabbed the rein with his hands, and suddenly reined in the sitting horse, raised his left hand, forming a bending arc, and shouted loudly, "Everyone stop—" the voice high pitched.

Behind him, hisses followed one after another, and the accompanying soldiers also hurriedly stopped to convey orders backwards.

Thousands of cavalry behind them all pulled the reins and slowed down.

After Gao Zhi reined in his horse and stopped, the scout slightly bent his knees, knelt down on his front knees, and presented the military situation to him again.

"What?! The news is accurate?!" After reading the military situation, Gao Zhi stood in front of the spies with a ferocious face, as if he wanted to eat people.

"It's absolutely true! Guanglusai in the north has been breached! A large number of Huns are going straight to Wuyuan County?" The spy replied in a panic.

"Damn barbarian! Are you really bullying me that there is no one left?!" Gao Zhi said viciously, "Come here, rectify the soldiers and horses."

Seeing this, the lieutenant at the side hastily stepped forward, "General, this subordinate suggests that we can send a group of troops to report to the lord. In addition, prepare troops."

"Sure!" Gao Zhi nodded, and ordered, "Everyone turn their horses around immediately and go to Wuyuan."

"promise!"

Then the lieutenant returned with a whip and quickly issued orders.

And those who received the order all left quickly with serious faces and dispatched troops.

Then, with the rumble of horseshoes, the army marched, rolled up dust, and headed north.

940 Nine Beacon Flames

The large-scale invasion of the Huns to the south made the great wall along the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty ignited billowing smoke. For a while, the flames of war raged, like countless black dragons escaped from the sky and the earth.

Raise the fire and burn the sky, the flames of the beacon!

This is this era. In order to convey the information of the enemy's invasion in a timely manner, the soldiers on the border lit "fuel" on the beacon tower. The smoke was very thick and could be seen from a long distance.

In this way, the beacon towers were clicked down one by one, and the news of the enemy's invasion was quickly passed on.
