The 30,000 cavalry on the northbound journey had been on their way overnight, and the supplies of food and grass had already set off two days earlier, making the most adequate preparations for this war.
Among the 30,000 cavalry, there are about 5,000 people who come with armor that is different from others. It is not as heavy as the Beimeng heavy cavalry, but it is heavier than the armor of the rest of the light cavalry.
This is Daxia's heavy cavalry, with a small number, but it has very important tactical significance.
When the 30,000 cavalry marched northward, the 70,000 forbidden troops under Duke Jingwu quickly moved southwards.
Four days later, the Daxia Imperial Army finally caught up with the northern Mongolian army. The two armies were close at hand, and the war was about to break out.
The atmosphere of war shrouded the sky between the two armies, and Daxia attacked from both sides, forcing the Northern Mongolia to divide its troops to deal with it.
In the northern Mongolia camp, Fan Lingyue sat in the tent, watching the information sent by the spies, the light in his eyes kept beating.
Daxia lacks horses, so cavalry is not the main type of arms. Compared with the Northern Mongolian cavalry, the combat power is not small. If they face each other head-on, 10,000 Northern Mongolian cavalry will be enough to deal with 20,000 Daxia cavalry.
Today, the 70,000 Daxia Imperial Army behind Beimeng is a bigger threat.
"Master, the leader of the Daxia cavalry is Xia Ziyi, whose talent is no weaker than anyone else's, and he may step into the innate realm at any time, so he has to guard against it," Xiao Wanhua said sternly in the tent.
"This person is up to you, and I will personally deal with Duke Wu of Jing," Fan Lingyue said calmly.
"Yes" Xiao Wanhua took the order and said respectfully.
In King Haowu's camp, Xia Ziyi walked out of the handsome tent and looked at the northern Mongolian army in the distance with a solemn expression.
Now, it is up to Ning Chen to find a way to separate the Beimeng heavy cavalry from the other 60,000 iron cavalry. The Daxia cavalry is not an opponent of the Northern Mongolian cavalry in a head-to-head battle, so they cannot face it head-on.
In the forbidden army camp, Duke Jing Wu, Hou Xueyi, and Ning Chen had discussed in the tent for most of the night, and Ning Chen did not leave until the sky was about to dawn.
"Beat the drum, attack"
At dawn, the Kamikaze Battalion 30,000 Imperial Guards marched in formation, and the remaining 40,000 Imperial Guards followed closely behind, ready to help at any time.
The blood-clothed Marquis and the three Kamikaze battalions took the lead, fighting with Qingyouyou and several generals from Northern Mongolia.
The blood-clothed Marquis was unparalleled in battle strength, forcing the crowd, and the Four Ming Swords took on the battle.
The elite of the Kamikaze battalion were all out, but Beimeng was relatively conservative.
On the first day of the test, both armies suffered casualties, but they were not large. At sunset, the two armies retreated and calmed down.
When the night fell, the Daxia cavalry on the other side suddenly attacked and violently attacked the camp of the heavy cavalry in Northern Mongolia.
Xiao Wanhua reacted quickly, and immediately sent light cavalry and infantry to fight to cover the heavy cavalry and horses that had been disarmed.
The Daxia cavalry made a strong attack, and when they saw that there was no gain, they immediately retreated, never reluctant to fight.
Ning Chen stood in the distance and looked at the retreating Daxia cavalry, with a calm expression and no expression of disappointment.
It's a normal situation to get nothing tonight. With the wisdom of Fan Lingyue, how could he not beware of Daxia's sneak attack at night.
The advantage of the heavy cavalry lies in forcibly breaking through the formation, and in the case of head-to-head encounters, the world is invincible.
However, heavy cavalry also has its own shortcomings.
One of them is that it is impossible for these heavy armors to be worn on soldiers and war horses all the time, otherwise, people and horses will not be able to bear it.
Wearing armor before the war and removing it after the war is an indispensable part of the heavy cavalry.
However, the heavy cavalry armor is very heavy and complicated to wear. It takes a lot of time to pierce and remove the armor each time. It is impossible to mount a horse and fight at any time like the light cavalry.
Therefore, in non-combat, these heavy cavalry cannot play any role.
As for the other shortcomings of the heavy cavalry, it depends on whether the Northern Mongolia heavy cavalry will make mistakes in the next battle.
Xia Ziyi came and said, "Let's go"
"kindness"
Ning Chen nodded, and immediately left with the former.
On the second day, the Kamikaze battalion and the remaining 40,000 forbidden troops continued to attack, and on the other side, 30,000 Daxia cavalry were ready to form a check.
Fan Lingyue sat in front of the battle and commanded the army to face the battle. As for the Daxia cavalry, it was temporarily handed over to Xiao Wanhua.
On this day, the heavy cavalry attacked and fought with the Kamikaze Battalion.
The heavy cavalry lost 400 cavalry, the Kamikaze battalion lost 2,000 soldiers, and on the other side, there was no threat of heavy cavalry, Daxia's 5,000 heavy cavalry did not care, carrying special long Ge, several rushing attacks, disturbed. The Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry was very embarrassed.
Although the Daxia heavy cavalry was far less powerful than the Northern Mongolian heavy cavalry, it still had a considerable advantage in dealing with the Northern Mongolian light cavalry.
At night, the Daxia Qingqi attacked the camp again, and the target was still the camp of the Northern Mongolian Heavy Cavalry. After encountering resistance, they immediately retreated without any hesitation.
On the third day, the same situation happened again. As long as the Beimeng heavy cavalry went to deal with the kamikaze camp, the heavy cavalry on Daxia's side would appear on the other side to disrupt the situation.
In desperation, Xiao Wanhua could only send someone to ask Fan Lingyue to temporarily adjust the heavy cavalry to deal with the 30,000 cavalry in Daxia.
After Fan Lingyue received the information, he approved the matter and transferred the heavy cavalry. However, he gave an order, no matter what the situation, the heavy cavalry must not be dispatched alone, and the light cavalry must be covered.
For the next two days, the Daxia Imperial Army's attacks continued one after another, and they never stopped.
The Daxia cavalry on the other side stabilized a lot after the heavy cavalry from Northern Mongolia was transferred, but the attacking battalion at night was still the same, and it was not pulled down overnight.
The Beimeng heavy cavalry was disturbed, and sometimes, just after the heavy armor was taken off, the light cavalry of Daxia came to attack and had to put it on again. Just about to fight, the cavalry of Daxia quickly retreated.
The wartime situation was changing rapidly. Fan Lingyue knew the importance of adaptability, so she focused on the Daxia Imperial Army, while the Daxia cavalry on the other side was relatively weak. She believed that Xiao Wanhua could temporarily cope with it.
This time, her surprise to Da Xia finally caught up in time.
On the night of the sixth day, a figure covered in black cloth appeared in Beimeng's tent. Fan Lingyue was sitting in a wheelchair, and the corner of his mouth drew a cold arc.
"Abbot, stay safe"
"Amitabha"
With a loud Buddha's horn, the black cloth suddenly exploded, revealing that it was the long-disappeared human Buddha, presided over by Du'e Temple.
On the other side of the Northern Mongolia army, in the camp of King Haowu, three thousand disciples of the Confucian sect appeared at the same time, led by the commander of the army, and rushed to take advantage of the night.
It was the first time that Ning Chen saw a Confucian sect leader-level person, and his first impression was very general, or in other words, his impression of the entire Confucian sect was very general.
His respect for the Master did not mean that he had a good impression of Confucianism.
The current Confucian school has long forgotten the original intention of the Master in founding the Confucian School. The Master created the Confucian School to educate the people, not to let these people rely on the Confucian school to fight for power and power.
With all his infamy, the sour Confucians in the court did not contribute less, he did not respond, but he did not have the energy to pay attention to these things.
Xia Ziyi also knew that Ning Chen disliked the Confucian sect, so she deliberately eased the relationship between Ning Chen and the Confucian sect.
"Ning Chen, this is the command of the soldiers, and your sword is the command of the soldiers."
"Thank you"
Ning Chen clasped his fists in a salute, kept his superficial politeness, and said.
"Knowing the name of the Marquis of Ming, I have heard of it a long time ago. I met today, and it really is a hero." Bing Zhang Ling smiled softly and said politely.
"excessive reputation"
After finishing speaking, Ning Chen didn't speak any more, this soldier commander was not a simple person at first glance. Now, unlike before, he no longer has the thought to be vain and condescending.
Xia Ziyi sighed in her heart, knowing that she could not, and immediately took the commander of the soldiers out of the tent and arranged a place to rest.
"Marquis Zhiming, a few days ago, Prince Yan and a girl named Aman came to the Confucian Sect, and that girl seems to be looking for you." When he was about to go out, the commander of the military commander paused and said lightly.
Ning Chen's body trembled, and his heart was suddenly no longer calm.
Why did this silly girl run out again!
The senior knew that he was in the underworld, so Aman must have known about it.
Why didn't Aman come
Ning Chen has a lot of thoughts in his heart, the more he thinks, the more things he can't understand.
Since ancient times, women's thoughts have not been guessed by men, no matter how smart a man is, and how simple a woman is.
In the wilderness in the distance, two figures in front and behind slowly move forward. The woman behind is wearing a beautiful dress and carrying an antique sword stand. On the sword stand, there are four swords, three of the seniors and one of her own. of.
"Senior, let's rest for a while," Ah Man said softly, unable to walk again.
"it is good"
Prince Yan responded lightly and stopped.
Ah Man was not squeamish, so he found a stone and sat down on the spot, took out two pears from his small package, handed one to the senior and the other to eat by himself.
Prince Yan smiled, took the pear, and said softly, "Aman, do you want to learn the sword?"
"In no mood"
Aman took a bite of the pear and answered very simply.
"Ah"
Prince Yan chuckled, thinking that those who want to teach don't want to learn, and that those who want to teach don't want to learn, if Ning Chen has half of this girl's comprehension, I am afraid that she would have stepped into the innate.
"Senior, where are we going?" Ah Man asked.
"The land of the extreme east," Prince Yan replied.
"What are you doing there?" Ah Man asked curiously.
"Crossing the Tribulation," Prince Yan said calmly.
The last calamity of the Five Tribulations Realm, after passing through, will touch the taboo of the three disasters at any time. If the first disaster occurs immediately, it may bring disaster to innocent people, and he does not want to take risks.
In this world, there are only five people in the three disaster realms. However, each time they passed the first disaster, they brought a lot of disasters to the world. The power of the three disaster realms is more based on the sacrifice of innocent people. .
Aman wasn't interested in cultivation matters, he nibbled at his pear, thinking about what someone was doing now.
"Senior, I miss him," Ah Man said in a low voice, his emotions getting low for no reason.
Prince Yan sighed in his heart and said softly, "When we return from the Far East, I will take you to find him, okay?"
"Okay" Aman nodded obediently, a beautiful smile bloomed on his pretty face, like a blooming flower, which was so beautiful that people were fascinated.
