Chapter 481 The Grain Transport Team in the Snow
The wind and snow are whistling, and within the Myriad Realms Civilization recently, the snow has gradually increased.
Although it can't be called a heavy snow, it is no longer a match for Xiaoxue.
This change in weather has undoubtedly increased the difficulty of transporting grain for the grain transport team.
Including Luo Cheng and Liu Kai and other two hundred cavalry captains.
All the cavalrymen were covered with hoods and hats to shield them from the wind and snow.
But you have to believe that it is definitely not only them who suffer in the heavy snow.
Compared with the grain transportation team that has been in motion for a long time, the horse thieves in charge of squatting are undoubtedly more uncomfortable.
A ration team consisting of a thousand cavalry.
How great is the momentum?
This level of movement is simply impossible to hide.
Across a long distance, a group of horse thieves who were squatting there were already aware of it.
It's just that the wind and snow were too heavy, and the 'woo woo' kept blowing, which really affected their hearing.
life-threatening matters.
How dare those horse thieves in charge of squatting be careless?
No matter how cold the snow on the ground is.
After pushing away a large pile of snow with two or three hands, he directly put his ears on the ground.
The coldness at that moment was almost pouring into the Heavenly Spirit Cover, almost causing his brain to go into shock.
After quickly determining the movement from afar.
He jumped up from the ground immediately.
Then he rubbed his ears hard.
It was really cold, and I almost felt like my ears were about to freeze!
"The grain transport team! With this level of movement, apart from the grain transport team of the Central Plains, I can't think of any other possibility!"
The horse thief who confirmed the movement hurried back to report the situation.
Since it is to squat.
Obviously, this large army of horse thieves can't be too far away from here.
Hearing the news, the one-eyed dragon Buhe and Bartle frowned.
It's really time for the Central Plains people to come here.
It is very risky for them to rob food in the wind and snow.
It is also difficult to exert his proud riding and shooting skills.
However, at this moment, they obviously have no way out.
Calculate the grain transport efficiency of the grain transport team.
If you missed this time.
The next time will be at least eight or nine days away.
And the people of their tribes have been short of food for a long time.
Wait another eight or nine days?
How many people have to starve to death?
Can't wait!
A quick glance was exchanged, and the horse thieves leaders could see their determination to grab food from each other's eyes.
One-Eyed Dragon Buhe spoke in a deep voice...
"The plan remains the same, get on the horse and grab food!"
These people from the prairie are all good players on horseback.
Even in the wind and snow, each of these movements is still neat.
After getting on the horse, the grain robbing troops, which had reached a total of 1,736 cavalry, officially set off.
By the way, there are six hundred cavaliers among them, from the Hanar tribe.
That is, Bartle's subordinate.
when confirming the quantity.
One-eyed dragon Buhe couldn't help but feel a little bit of fear in his heart after learning this number.
Sure enough, your uncle will always be your uncle.
Even if the emperor was in trouble, he would not be inferior to the horse thieves.
Just like Luo Cheng's grain transport team, it was difficult to hide their whereabouts because of the large number of cavalry.
This group of horse thieves who robbed food was obviously the same.
The movement of these 1,700 horses rushing around is no bigger than Luo Cheng and the others.
Years of marching on the grasslands.
Liu Kai was undoubtedly more sensitive than Luo Cheng to the movement caused by the galloping horses.
"A large number of cavalry are running towards us!"
Hearing this, Luo Cheng's heart suddenly squeaked.
"Could it be General Bai Ze and the others?"
"impossible!"
Liu Kai shook his head very simply.
"When the two generals entered the winter, most of their energy was concentrated on protecting the three grassland cities from the harassment of horse thieves, and they couldn't get out of it at all!"
"In other words, a horse thief?!"
Luo Cheng's eyelids jumped quickly.
Both of them were undoubtedly smart people, and they straightened the whole thing out at once.
And as the enemy cavalry units approached, the roar of horseshoes became louder and louder.
After all, Luo Cheng was the 100-cavalry captain of the cavalry team.
According to the sound of this movement, it is still possible to judge the approximate number of troops of the opponent.
Then there was a wry smile on his face...
"Listen to the news, at least about 1,500 horses, what you were worried about happened before, and the horse thieves on the grassland have united!"
Hearing this, Liu Kai also showed a wry smile.
He has been worried before that the horse thieves have been too honest in recent days, and will they be forced to join forces to rob food.
Now it turns out that he was expecting it, but this kind of thing is better than not expecting it.
In the face of such a large number of horse thieves, even if they can win with a little equipment advantage.
There will also be a relatively heavy price to pay.
"It's not far from White Horse City, and General Brigold should be patrolling the White Horse City at this time!"
While talking, Liu Kai quickly dispatched a cavalry to bypass this area and rushed to White Horse City for help.
If the reinforcements can arrive in time, then the casualties of their grain transport team should be under control.
"Notice, everyone, prepare to fight!"
While shouting, Luo Cheng quickly took down the hand crossbow hanging from the horse's back, and a ruthless look flashed in his eyes.
"If you want to move our grain transportation team of Wanjie Civilization, you have to be mentally prepared to pay the price!"
"Tactical preparation No. 2!"
The second tactic in Luo Cheng's mouth refers to the staged shooting tactics.
For the cavalry in battle, the hand crossbow only had one shot.
Naturally, this precious arrow cannot be wasted in a salvo.
So, consider different situations.
Luo Cheng had arranged various tactics in advance.
When the cavalry team is charging at full speed over long distances, the formation of an entire cavalry team will be dragged uncontrollably for a long time.
Because each horse's own speed and cavalry's weight and riding skills are different, it is impossible to be exactly the same.
And the kind of charge that goes hand in hand in movies and TV shows can only be said to be a film and television effect.
A long-distance charge at full speed will inevitably lengthen the formation.
Well-versed cavalry can control a little, but not completely.
In the face of the cavalry team's lengthened charge formation.
The entire salvo of the hand crossbow, most of the crossbow arrows are wasted in vain.
Phased, layer by layer, is the solution to maximize the value.
I have to say that Luo Cheng, the hundred cavalry captain, knows how to deal with the cavalry team under the charge...
At the same time, this snowstorm also brought them certain advantages.
The prairie people are best at riding and shooting, and they can't play it out in this snowstorm.
Can only rush up to fight them in melee.
On the contrary, the hand crossbow in their hands, because it is driven by mechanical force, has relatively limited impact!
