Chapter 3329

This so-called "post one" tactic was developed by Li Li himself and his second time in Sima Yi's archery and cavalry battle report.

I have practiced many times, but I have not had any actual combat with real swords and guns.

Now, it's Cao Jun's turn to enjoy Li Li's first time.

Li Li is not a famous general of the Three Kingdoms. If he hadn't met Fei Qian, he might have been in the north of the Mo, or in the north, living silently and dying silently. Now he has a bigger stage, allowing him to freely display his talents.

Li Li ignored the light arrows of Cao Jun who were flying from afar, and observed his array left and right while running.

Because it was the "post one" tactic he proposed, he had to experience the close ambiguity and the pleasure of friction personally.

Originally, Sima Yi's archery tactics were similar to flying a kite. He ran for a while, stopped and shot, then ran for another while shot again. Although Sima Yi also achieved good results with this tactic, Li Li felt that it was not suitable, or that he did not fully play the advantages of the cavalry, and it was not a very complete tactical model.

This may be because Sima Yi is not a cavalry general himself, he is just a part-time commander of the Dali Temple Minister. Although he has also been training at the grassroots level in the Northern Region, he has never really been on the battlefield when he was in the Northern Region, nor has he faced the battle with a sword like a cavalry general, and he even had Sima Yi's archery shooting technique...

Yes, ahem, it's better not to mention it.

Therefore, when Sima Yi was developing the archery tactics, he was inevitably subject to an invisible restriction of his own personal abilities. Now, as a military academy where Li Li lived for a long time in the north and deserts and climbed up step by step from grassroots soldiers, he had a deeper understanding of the combination of the two skills of bow and arrow and riding.

The strongest thing for cavalry is not bows and arrows, but speed!

So Sima Yi's direction actually has a certain deviation.

Sima Yi's archer and cavalry tactics are actually the tactics of infantry plus war horses, rather than the real cavalry tactics.

Li Li made the opposite choice from Sima Yi, that is, no matter when, especially at such a life-and-death juncture in the battle, the speed of the cavalry must not be reduced!

Sima Yi's tactical running and stop shooting actually has advantages.

Long distance ensures the survival of the archers and will not be stabbed by infantry swords and guns. Stop and shoot, which ensures the hit rate of the archers shooting. In this way, it can not only ensure its own survival but also improve its killing of the enemy, which is naturally extremely sharp.

But Li Li chose another way and another direction...

speed!

When the cavalry began to form formations and cyclists, the world was filled with horse heads and legs.

The long horse's hair flew in the wind, and the dust raised by the horse's hooves crashed towards the Cao army like a curtain wall.

The leading cavalry were all experienced elites. They controlled the war horses accurately, and did not change their direction while galloping, or were close to the infantry front of Cao's army. The results of long-term training and actual combat were fully reflected in them. Under the leadership of these leading cavalry, Li Li was preparing to post a sticker with Cao's army, like a fish swimming in the water. He steadily threw a tail and almost "posted" with Cao's army!

The dense sound of hooves gathered into rumbling sounds, which were like fairy music in Li Li's ears!

However, in the feelings of Cao's soldiers, Li Li and others' actions were like a huge chariot of iron and blood. Even if they were not crushed directly, just passing by was enough to make ordinary Cao's soldiers frightened and scream.

『Stay! Stay!"

The governors in the Cao army array shouted. They didn't understand why Li Li and others did this, but they had already instinctively felt the danger. While shouting to calm the others, they began to shrank their heads behind the shield and the human wall.

If you say "a sticker", you will naturally not rush in directly. When the closest distance between the Hussar cavalry and the Cao army front was even ten steps away, Li Li immediately roared: "Wind! Strong wind!"

The Hussars and cavalry of the entire queue also yelled:

『High wind!』

『High wind!』

With the roar, the neat red tassels jumped, and then half turned sideways, slightly leaning outward, and then they opened their bow and shot angrily!

Suddenly, countless arrows roared, like a tornado that suddenly broke out among the Hussar Cavalry and Cao's army array, roaring towards the Cao's army array!

In order to make the cavalry shoot accurately, Sima Yi flew kites and ran away after hitting. In order to make the cavalry shoot accurately, Li Li had to run fast, so he had to get close!

Very close!

Only in this extreme close situation can the cavalry's shooting be affected by the bumps of the war horses. Even if there is an impact, it is not a big problem, because from Li Li to these elite cavalrymen, they all use rapid fire.

Take an arrow and shoot it casually!

Even if the previous arrow makes a mistake, the next arrow will shoot the next target!

As for the last missing target, I will leave it to my teammates behind me!

Arrow, howling!

Man, fall down!

In the blink of an eye, Cao's army was like encountering a sickle that cuts crops, and was knocked down one piece at a time!

At such a very close distance, even if the Cao army soldiers saw arrows flying, they could not avoid them!

Within ten steps, the power of the arrow can even be comparable to that of later pistols!

Fast and accurate!

With the sound of bowstrings, the soldiers in the Cao army infantry array fell down in continuous screams!

Even though the front row of Cao's soldiers was protected by shields, there were some weak areas exposed after all.

For example, half-pull the head at the edge of the shield, half of the shoulders, even a piece of calves, a few fingers...

The bow string was pulled quickly, and then under the guidance of the bow arm, the arrow popped out like lightning!

Bloody flowers bloom among Cao's army!

The bowstrings slammed and the screams came one after another.

Because the screams of Cao's soldiers were too many and too dense, it seemed that there was a shout of a combination of different voices in the whole world: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh~~~"

...

...

Xu Chu, who was standing in the distance watching the battle, couldn't help but step on the stirrup and stood up straight.

He looked at the battlefield without turning his eyes, and even felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known that Li Li's tactics were so sharp, then he should have cooperated to suppress the other soldiers...

Li Li said that the archer tactics he wanted to try were so powerful?!

If all the cavalry adopted this tactic...

Xu Chu took a breath.

In front of him was the rushing war horse, the jumping red flames, the flying yellow dust, and the falling figure...

This is a branch of Li Li!

Well, wait.

Xu Chu slowly sat back on the horse's back and pinched his chin to think.

Although the situation in front of him surprised Xu Chu, he quickly woke up from his imagination.

Not everyone has this kind of shooting talent.

Moreover, archers are not invincible, but because archers are extremely restrained by infantry with only short-range melee weapons. If the enemy changes the formation and adopts other strategies, the effectiveness of archers will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, a single army is not advisable.

Just like the cavalry, although they are famous for their cavalry, they still maintain a certain number of elite infantrymen and long-range troops...

In the dense infantry battle formation, because there was no room for refuge and no particularly strong cover, Li Li's post instantly made the Cao army's soldiers' formation climax one after another.

Although these Cao army soldiers were equipped with spears and shields, it was difficult to cause any harm to Li Li's archers and cavalrymen in this way. Even if Li Li's archers and cavalrymen were very close to Cao's military formation, the long swords and spears of these Cao army soldiers were still difficult to damage the archers and cavalrymen.

Ten steps apart are like the end of the world.

Why?

Xu Chu also figured it out, it was fast, and it was not just average, but very fast!

In order to protect himself, Sima Yi's archers added armor, similar to heavy archers, which can stand on stances and shoot hard with the opposite archers. However, Li Li chose another direction, which is the archers in the middle, which also reduced the original equipment of melee weapons, but equipped with backup bows with long-range arrows, greatly reducing the load on the war horses. This allows archers like Li Li to run at a speed close to the war horses' rapid sprint!

When the war horses sprint at full speed, take the Western Liang horse as an example. They can run fifteen steps in one breath. Even if they lower a little, Li Li and others flew past like lightning before these Cao army arrays, instantly fired arrows while galloping rapidly, and at the same time rolled away the dust.

At this fatal moment, the infantry of Cao's army could not reach the cavalry at all, whether it was a long sword or a spear.

Even if the Cao army infantry who were lucky enough not to be shot, they would not be able to react or catch up with Li Li's archers and cavalrymen.

At the same time, being close means a high hit rate.

Even the archers and cavalrymen under Li Li are still lacking in actual training. Even on the back of the horse galloping and undulating horses, the shooting stability will be relatively poor, but when it approaches only ten steps, it is really like color, and if you want to grow it, you want to grow it...

Another very hidden advantage is that the closer the distance, the smaller the kinetic energy of the arrow is attenuated, and the stronger the armor-breaking force is.

Li Li and others did not need to carry special armor-breaking heavy arrows at all. They only needed ordinary bows and arrows, which were enough to have the power to directly break armor and shields at this distance!

It’s not that Li Li and others have strong bow power, but that the distance is close enough, and the power of the arrow is rarely reduced. It almost hits the opponent’s body when it breaks away from the bowstring. The kinetic energy can almost be said to be without any loss!

Can the bow control this tactic?

Xu Chu quickly denied it.

It’s not that he looked down on the infantry archers of the Cao army, but that Xu Chu knew that the training methods of infantry arches and cavalry arches were completely different!

Cavalry bows are dynamic bows. They are used to capturing dynamic changes, and they are also trained to capture targets dynamically during the rapid running of war horses, and even train them to hunt birds and beasts. Most of the archers are shooting fixed targets...

And the key is that although the archer also has the word "bow", he often pursues shooting towards the predetermined area before the two sides meet, or shooting at a long-range shooting. This is completely different from Li Li's approach to hunting.

Xu Chu himself commanded the infantry, so he was also very clear about the shooting method of the archer. Generally speaking, he started to prepare for shooting at a distance of about 150 steps. The crossbowman started shooting at about 120 steps, and the archer would shoot at a distance of 80 to 60 steps. If the enemy approached within twenty steps, according to the requirements of the infantry training, "that is, the archer and the crossbowman picked up the archer and ordered the garrison to collect the garrison. The archer first connected his arms, followed the knife and rod, and then fought with the team."

Well, that's right, the archer with a knife can fight in close combat, while the crossbowman does not have a knife...
