I am the Crown Prince of the Three Kingdoms

"Okay, baby, I'll handle it right away." Ma Chao nodded and said.

The forces on Ma Teng's side also became more vigilant against the Han Dynasty, controlled the horses more strictly, and began to spy on the secrets of the cavalry.

.. ......

Jiangdong, Wu County, Wuhou Mansion.

Sun Ce was walking in the mansion when suddenly Zhuge Jin and Gu Yong came to the door and told Sun Ce the news.

After listening, Sun Ce was stunned.

"How did this happen? I remember that when Liu Feng was in the south, he also respected his infantry and fought against orphans. Why did he just go to the north and start training cavalry, and they are so powerful." Sun Ce muttered to himself.

To tell the truth, my heart is full of jealousy.

In the south, there are infantry, and the navy is enough.But if you want to run wild in the north and unify the world.This cavalry is kingly, almost the only kingly way.Thinking back to the past, Liu Feng was also struggling in the south, and he didn't want to only go there for a few months, and then he would have a strong cavalry.

How can this not make Sun Ce envious and jealous?

"Marquis Wu, now is not the time to worry about this. Now that the Han Dynasty has repelled Cao Cao, it has become more and more consolidated. We have an enmity with the Han Dynasty, so we must prepare in advance." Zhuge Jin said after hearing the words.

Although Liu Feng interfered, Sun Ce's title was lowered and he became the Marquis of Shangyong.But the ministers still called Sun Ce the Marquis of Wu.

"Exactly." Gu Yong nodded and said.

"Yeah." Sun Ce nodded when he heard that this was what he should do.Immediately, after pondering for a moment, he ordered: "Strengthen the construction of the navy, on the one hand, guard against Huang Zhong from Xiangyang going down the river to attack Jiangdong, and on the other hand, guard against Shouchun's Jushou."

"In addition to this, I ordered the collection of horses from the entire Jiangdong, selected and trained. I also want cavalry." The second order was Sun Ce's ambition.

It is not Marquis Wu's ambition to stick to Jiangdong, it is Marquis Wu's ambition to run wild in the north and conquer the world.

"promise."

Gu Yong and Zhuge Jin agreed in unison.

Jiangdong also made preparations for the rise of the Han Dynasty.There is no movement for the time being, but the hostility is also stronger.

The three forces of Yongzhou, Jiangdong, and Hebei are just the epitome of the whole world.Except for Liu Zhang, king of Shu, and Liu Pan, king of Chu, Shi Xie of Jiaozhou, Gongsun Du of Liaodong, and Han Sui of Liangzhou, the rest of the princes, became more vigilant and hostile to the Han Dynasty.

This is an inevitable trend of the rise of the Han Dynasty, because the princes of the world are all afraid of the rise of the princes of the world.Now the Han Dynasty is not too powerful, but if there is a slight change, I am afraid they will attack it in groups.

Liu Feng's rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty is really against the sky, against the trend, against the heart of the people.

Chapter 687 How to deal with cavalry

Liu Feng can roughly guess what the princes of the world are thinking.But so what?worried?That's useless, the only useful thing is to take advantage of the fact that Cao's army is retreating and the princes are waiting to see, to consolidate their forces and cultivate their forces.

Add stirrups, horseshoes, and tiger and leopard cavalry to defeat Cao Cao's cavalry.This is Liu Feng's decision, but the consequences may be more serious.Because war is the easiest way to lose some secrets, and the craftsmanship of stirrups and horseshoes is relatively shallow.

It was copied by Cao Cao, it was nailed to the iron plate.

The first is to restore the combat power of the cavalry, and find a way to get rid of Cao Cao's large-scale cavalry with stirrups and horseshoes.

For this, Liu Feng is more urgent.But someone is more urgent than Liu Feng.

On the second day after the award, Dong Cheng dragged his tired body into the palace to see Liu Feng.

"Why doesn't the old general have a rest?" In the side hall, Liu Feng knelt on the throne, with Dong Gai and Dong Xi on the left and right.He looked at Dong Cheng and complained.

"I really have something to worry about, I can't rest." Dong Chengwen said with a wry smile.

"Is it about getting rid of Cao Jun's iron cavalry?" Liu Feng was taken aback for a moment, then immediately thought of it.Yesterday in front of the city gate, Dong Cheng blamed himself for not protecting the secret of the stirrups and horseshoes.

Although I know that he has some means to adapt, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I am afraid that I am a little uneasy.

"Exactly." Dong Cheng blushed, nodded and admitted.It's not that he doesn't trust Liu Feng, it's just that.

Dong Cheng blushed, causing Dong Gai behind Liu Feng to twitch, wanting to laugh but unable to.He knew exactly what His Highness's countermeasures were.

"Okay, let the old general see Gu's methods." Liu Feng Wenyan smiled slightly and said.Immediately, Liu Feng nodded to Dong Gai, Dong Gai smiled and walked down.

Seeing this, Dong Cheng was overjoyed, the general's method of cracking the cavalry has been revealed for a long time, this time he can finally meet.

Soon, Dong Gai walked in from the outside.But Dong Cheng was stunned again. Could it be that the way to get rid of the cavalry is still on foreign objects?

Before this, Dong Cheng felt that there were no more than two ways to get rid of the cavalry, one of which was a mysterious army formation, which could trap the cavalry.The second is to conduct careful planning in tactics to achieve the goal of infantry fighting cavalry.

But unexpectedly, this method is still on the body of the foreign object.

I saw Dong Gai holding a strange long blade in his hand.

Dong Cheng had never seen this weapon before.It is very strange that the blade is cut on both sides, and the sharp corner comes out in the middle.

It is not surprising that Dong Cheng finds it strange, because this is not a weapon that should appear in this era.This is the weapon of the Tang Dynasty, which was hailed as the strongest national power by later generations of China.This is the legendary Mo Dao.

Mo Dao is shaped like a three-pointed and two-edged knife, with double-edged and protruding pointed ends.But not exactly, because Mo Dao has only one pointed corner, not three pointed.

This kind of weapon is very heavy. Calculated according to the craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty, it weighs 20 catties. Converted to the jin of later generations, it weighs more than [-] catties.In other words, those who can use this kind of weapon must be the strongest and most powerful soldiers in the army.

A strong body gave the soldiers the most basic conditions to resist cavalry, and with the addition of armor, it was a heavy infantry.Such infantry can barely fight against cavalry.But it is definitely not enough, because of the lack of attack power.

Volume 172 Chapter 1374: Chapter 687 Magical Ways to Deal with Cavalry (2)

But it's different with Mo Dao, which was specially built to deal with cavalry.In the history of the Tang Dynasty, part of the credit for the Tang Dynasty's ability to repeatedly defeat the Turkic people and subdue the barbarians was the Modao.

A strong body, with heavy armor, and a Mo knife.This is equipment capable of defeating any cavalry.

Of course, this is not enough.According to Liu Feng's prediction, for an infantry to defeat cavalry, in addition to heavy infantry, it also needs some strong archers who can open that kind of hard bow, this is not a problem.

As long as the soldiers are strong, it will be fine to make more hard bows.

But Liu Feng still has an idea, which is to cooperate with Zhuge Liannu.According to legend, it is a super continuous crossbow that can fire one crossbow bolt at a time, and one magazine can fire ten crossbow bolts.

The cavalry charged, 150 paces away, and used repeated crossbows.Sixty paces away, use a hard bow, twenty paces away, heavy infantry advance forward with Mo Dao in hand.With this combination, Liu Feng is confident that he can withstand the frontal charge of the tiger and leopard cavalry.

The only imperfection may be that the movement speed is slower.But Liu Feng didn't care, it didn't matter if his speed was slow, and Dong Cheng's cavalry was there to cooperate.According to Liu Feng's plan, he would start to build [-], that is, the heavy infantry of the Second Battalion, which specially restrained cavalry.

Cooperate with Dong Cheng's six thousand cavalry.Even if Cao Cao was equipped with stirrups and horseshoes, Liu Feng still had the capital to resist.

The only problem is that Zhuge Liannu, Liu Feng doesn't know what's going on, and can only provide an idea. A group of top craftsmen in the country are working hard to develop it.And this Mo Dao was also secretly developed by Liu Feng during this period of time.

However, it was just a crude embryo. According to Liu Feng's calculations, it was still a long way from the invincible Mo Dao of the Tang Dynasty.

Another point is that the gold consumed is like running water.The manufacture of this Mo knife is estimated to be as rich as a piece of armor, which is terrifying.

But it doesn't matter, now Cao Cao has retreated.Want to counterattack.It will take at least eight months to launch an attack again after the grain harvest and mobilization are complete.
