Chapter 66 Learning from the enemy Horse King
Luo Xiaofei, this heroic general, has never experienced such a setback. The two hundred elite cavalry he led suffered an unprecedented blow on the battlefield in the central grassland.
It was a fierce battle. The sky was filled with dust and flying arrows, and the sound of bows and arrows, the sound of horse hooves, and the shouts of soldiers intertwined together to form a thrilling picture. Luo Xiaofei and his cavalry, with their courage and blood, launched a charge against the enemy.
However, the opponent was the cavalry led by the "Horse King" Luck in the central grassland. Their strength far exceeded Luo Xiaofei's expectations. Their soldiers are as strong as tigers, their horses are as agile as dragons, and they are especially good at using bows and arrows. Their arrows streaked through the air like meteors, accurately hitting Luo Xiaofei's soldiers, causing huge casualties.
Luo Xiaofei's two hundred elite cavalry lost more than fifty people in the short battle and injured more than one hundred and twenty people. This was a defeat that Luo Xiaofei had never experienced before. Sitting on his horse, he watched his soldiers fall wounded and fell, his heart filled with pain and remorse.
He knew that he acted too hastily and underestimated the enemy's strength, which led to this tragic defeat. He needs to learn from this failure and sum up his experience. He needs to understand the enemy more deeply and find out the enemy's weaknesses.
So he started snooping around to gather information about Lark and his cavalry. We know that their bows and arrows are called sinew compound bows. They are made of special materials and can shoot accurate arrows at a long distance.
Typically, they choose materials that are more elastic and tough, such as antlers or horns. The horn material undergoes a series of treatments and processes, including removal of impurities, trimming and cutting, and is ultimately made into the arms of the bow.
Next, you need to collect flexible and elastic animal sinews as the bow strings. They usually choose tendons from bones and muscles as materials. The sinews are stripped, cleaned and processed, and finally woven into a solid bowstring.
In addition to horns and ribs, other materials are used to reinforce and bond the various parts of the bow. They would use animal leather to make the back of the bow to increase the strength and durability of the bow. They also use materials such as glue, plant fibers, or animal intestines to bond and wrap the arms and back of the bow to ensure the structural stability of the bow.
The sinew composite bows made in this way have high quality and performance, allowing their cavalry to shoot flexibly and freely on the battlefield. The tendons of the bow arms and the angular material of the back make the bow elastic and powerful enough to fire powerful arrows. The rib material of the bow string ensures that the arrow can be shot quickly and stably.
Luo Xiaofei knew that he needed to deal with them more cautiously and smartly. He began making plans for another attack.
First of all, I also made the sinew compound bow myself. We must also have the enemy's advantages, and we must have the advantages that the enemy does not have. This is the secret to invincibility!
He has gathered more than a thousand herdsmen in the eastern grasslands, of which more than 800 are good at riding and shooting.
Luo Xiaofei organized all the eight hundred riders and told them that "Horse King" Lark was about to invade their eastern grassland. Everyone must unite to fight against the cruel Lark, knowing that after killing their enemies, he would drink their blood. , and would cut off their scalps as trophies and use their skulls as cups from which to drink.
Seven days later, the scouts discovered "Horse King" Lark's cavalry army, a total of 800 people!
Luck's cavalry had not discovered them yet, but it was only a matter of time, and the defenses had to be strengthened.
He ordered the herdsmen to evacuate immediately to the east, away from Luck's cavalry. Their eyes were full of fear and anxiety, but Luo Xiaofei knew that this was the only thing they could do. He looked at their leaving figures, his heart filled with worry.
He then turned to Dos, the Chosen City he had built with his own hands, and organized the people there to prepare for defense. He fortified the surrounding area. Temporary barriers were built with sticks and adobe, and trenches and traps were dug around them. Every resource they could find became a tool of their defense.
Luo Xiaofei appears to be able to command defensive battles with ease. He is like a calm chess player, accurately calculating each move. His eyes are as sharp as an eagle's and his decisions are as quick as lightning. Under his command, his troops were well organized and the fortifications were built as solidly as an iron wall.
"Horse King" Lark's cavalry army came like a strong wind. Their speed was extremely fast and their attacks were fierce. However, in the face of Luo Xiaofei's clever defense, they seemed unable to find a breakthrough. The rampaging cavalry army slowed down in front of Luo Xiaofei's fortifications and fell into traps and trenches.
"Horse King" Luck made a mistake.
In the last encounter with Luo Xiaofei's cavalry, Luck won a complete victory, but he was not so happy because Luo Xiaofei's last "miracle" scared everyone, allowing him to successfully escape.
Lark ordered all the priests in the tribe to hold a grand ceremony. The ceremony lasted for several days, during which the priests prayed, drew mysterious patterns, and offered various tributes. Finally, they told Lark that they were ready to fight against Luo Xiaofei's miracle.
As a result, Lark confidently led his cavalry to set off again.
However, the opponent did not directly fight, but cleverly used the city wall as a barrier to avoid their attacks.
Lac's cavalry could not get close to the city walls, and every charge they made was repulsed by a relentless barrage of arrows. Their morale began to decline, and the originally confident cavalry began to feel frustrated.
Lark was a wise and courageous leader who knew that this could not continue. So he changed his tactics and decided to siege the city. He ordered the cavalry to set up defenses around the city of Dos and cut off the castle from the outside world.
At the same time, Luck sent people back to bring in reinforcements. They brought back catapults, powerful siege engines. As soon as the catapults arrived, the situation of the battle immediately changed.
The city of Dos was violently attacked by huge stones from catapults, the adobe walls were broken, and the soldiers in the castle were shaken. The originally quiet castle suddenly became noisy, and people's screams and shouts filled the entire space.
Laccai's cavalry seized this opportunity and launched a fierce charge. Lark took the lead and jumped over the broken wall and rushed into the castle.
This is the most dangerous time in Dos City.
However, what Ling Lak didn't expect was that Dos City had two walls. His horse crossed the outer wall and immediately fell into the horse trap dug in advance.
Poor Luck, the arrogant "horse king", fell into a trap and was shot to death by random arrows.
