"Riding and shooting?" Ah Dian didn't understand the meaning of Li Wangyou's words at all.

"Yes, it's riding and shooting!" Li Wangyou nodded firmly.

In his opinion, dismounting cavalry like Xue Yantuo to form a formation is completely putting the cart before the horse. No wonder the Xue Yantuo Khanate was beaten to pieces by the Tang army not long after it existed.

The Turkic people are even weaker, and they can't even break through the dismounted cavalry formation of the Tiele people.

Although Li Wangyou had never been in battle, let alone served as a soldier, as a fan of the puppet army in later generations, he also knew that the most powerful cavalry in history was the Mongolian iron cavalry in the era of Genghis Khan.

The tactics of Mongolian iron cavalry are divided into Mongolian light cavalry and Mongolian heavy cavalry.

The Mongolian light cavalry, known for their good riding and shooting, can be called the nightmare of infantry.

Form a group of a hundred people, wandering outside the infantry phalanx, and constantly shooting arrows to kill the infantry formed in the formation.When the two armies rushed to the battle, before the confrontation, the Mongolian Qingqi could shoot and kill the enemy in large numbers at a long distance, causing the enemy to be confused.

Following the Mongolian heavy cavalry, they will quickly charge and defeat the enemy with the momentum of Mount Tai.

The Mongolian iron cavalry, relying on such tactics, conquered two-thirds of the land of Eurasia with a small nation with a population of less than 200 million.

In Li Wangyou's view, the Tiele people of the Huerte tribe are also good at riding and shooting, but they didn't find the right tactics.

While the two sides were talking, the soldiers of Xue Yantuo, who were 600 meters away, seemed to have gotten a little impatient in waiting, and began to slowly advance towards them to the sound of drums.

Li Wangyou knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer at this time, otherwise there would be only one way to annihilate the entire army.

"Da Lang, don't say any more! Tell them, they all listen to me! Now everyone get on their horses and follow my sand boat to charge!"

After Li Wangyou finished speaking, he ran back to Shazhou, but Ah Duo hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth, and yelled a few words to the Tiele people beside him, everyone obeyed Li Wangyou's order and got back on their horses... …

1024 Cat and Mouse

The people of the Huerte tribe got on their horses again, which was somewhat unexpected to those Xue Yantuo cavalrymen.

But these Xue Yantuo cavalry not only did not panic, but showed contempt on their faces. With a cat-and-mouse mentality, they stopped advancing, re-formed the infantry battle formation, and waited for the Huerte tribe to come to die.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was only about one mile. After Ah Dian led all the young and strong men of the Huerte tribe to mount their horses, Li Wangyou immediately drove the sand boat and rushed towards Xue Yantuo's cavalry phalanx. Knowing what Li Wangyou wanted to do, he could only grit his teeth and follow.

Seeing that the Huerte tribe dared to charge into their battle formation on horseback, Xue Yantuo's cavalry all showed ferocious smiles, followed the command of the centurion, drew their bows and set arrows, and waited for the Huerte tribe to step into the land of death.

The longbow has a range of 200 meters. As long as the Huerte tribe continues to attack the infantry battle formation, they will be baptized by the rain of arrows first.Afterwards, Xue Yantuo's dismounted cavalry would advance in a phalanx and use the steel knife in their hands to harvest the lives of the enemy.

This tactic has long been proven to be very effective in the Xueyantuo Khanate's many battles against the Turks, and it also relied on dismounting cavalry formations to beat the Turks into a panic.

But Xue Yantuo's cavalry did not expect that Li Wangyou led a group of Huerte tribe's cavalry to charge straight forward. When he was about to enter the range of the bow and arrow, he manipulated the sand boat and drew a line in front of Xue Yantuo's dismounted cavalry. Arc, go around directly.

A Tuo and the others followed closely behind Li Wangyou's sand boat, urging the horses to run wildly.

The advantage of the cavalry lies in their speed. If they give up their speed and dismount to fight, they are simply the idiots of idiots.

Li Wangyou was going to copy Li Ji's tactics, first get rid of Xue Yantuo's cavalry horses.

Behind Xue Yantuo's dismounted cavalry formation are their war horses.

Five or six hundred war horses were guarded by more than a hundred Xue Yantuo cavalry.

To separate the horses from the cavalry is the folly of the utmost.

Since Xue Yantuo sent such a big gift, how could Li Wangyou not accept it with a smile.

Li Ji was able to defeat 20 Xue Yantuo's army with [-] cavalry, no matter how weak he was, he would have no problem eating the [-] or [-] cavalry in front of him.

The Xue Yantuo cavalry never expected that the herdsmen of the Huerte tribe actually bypassed the infantry formation, circled the infantry phalanx, and rushed towards their rear army, panicked.

The centurions who commanded the infantry phalanx were shocked when they saw this situation, and hurriedly called the infantry phalanx to turn around, intending to turn back to rescue their rear troops.

But how can a two-legged infantry outrun a four-legged cavalry.

Before Xue Yantuo's dismounted cavalry rushed back to the rear army, Li Wangyou had already led Ah Tuo and others into the horse group of Xue Yantuo's rear army.

These unmanned war horses and the unlucky men leading the horses, even though they had the same number as Ah Tuo and the others, couldn't stop the angry Ah Tuo and others from attacking.

Just like chopping melons and vegetables, Ah Tuo and the others penetrated Xue Yantuo's rear army and chopped down those unlucky ones directly.

As for the horses of the rear army, they were also driven by Huerte's men to run around. After a while, these horses were dead and running... The cavalry who were waiting for Xue Yantuo to dismount, led by the centurions, were out of breath. Running back to the rear army, where can I see the trace of the horse.

After a successful blow, Li Wangyou didn't give Xue Yantuo a chance at all, and led Ah Tuo and the others away.

Without the horses of the rear army, Xue Yantuo's dismounted infantry, in Li Wangyou's view, are nothing more than turtles.

If you escape, you cannot escape; if you fight, you cannot hit.

Now it is only necessary to use the speed of the horses to slowly consume them to death.

A smile finally appeared on Li Wangyou's face. He thought it would be a deadly situation, but because of Xue Yantuo's stupidity, he saw the dawn of victory.

After losing their horses, Xue Yantuo's cavalry finally realized that something was wrong.

Just as Li Wangyou thought, these Xue Yantuo cavalry suddenly found themselves in a rather embarrassing situation.

Want to escape without horses, want to fight, but those damn herdsmen don't give them a chance at all.

Several centurions leading the team couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what to do.

Ah Tuo and the others also came to their senses at this time, with smiles on their faces, and the eyes of Xue Yantuo's cavalry couldn't help showing a playful look.

In their view, without horses, even if it was exhausted, these Xue Yantuo cavalry would be exhausted.Without horses on the grassland, no matter how powerful the cavalry is, it is just a lame lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Li Wangyou was also high-spirited at this moment, pointing at Xue Yantuo's cavalrymen who were huddled together in panic and said with a smile: "Da Lang, how are you, now are you sure to kill them?"

With a cruel smile on his face, he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips: "They are dead! I will never let them out of this grassland! Li Wangyou, leave the rest to us. "

Li Wangyou didn't try his best either, and nodded, ready to watch this small-scale battle from the sidelines.

Just now, he had already explained to Ah Duo how to use cavalry and shooting tactics to kill these dismounted cavalry from Xue Yantuo in solid armor.

Adi let the tribe rest for a while, regained its horsepower, and then led the team to charge towards Xue Yantuo's cavalry again.

The herdsmen of the Huerte tribe did not give Xue Yantuo cavalry a chance to attack them at all. Under the leadership of Ah Tiao, according to Li Wangyou's instructions, they kept urging their horses to circle around Xue Yantuo's dismounted cavalry formation like a turtle shell. The bow and arrow in his hand shot out continuously, slowly reaping the lives of Xue Yantuo's cavalry.

The well-equipped Xue Yantuo cavalry was passively beaten, and after being shot and killed nearly a hundred people by Ah Tiao and the others, they finally collapsed.

The centurions in the cavalry team couldn't restrain the team anymore. Some Xue Yantuo cavalrymen knelt down and surrendered directly, and some fled in all directions, hoping to escape.

Those Xue Yantuo cavalrymen who fled in all directions became the dinner of the red-eyed Ah Tiao and others, who urged their horses to catch up and chopped them down with one blow.

No matter how fast a person runs, on this vast grassland, there is no way he can outrun a horse.

It didn't take much effort, those cavalrymen who tried to escape were cut down by the furious Huerte herdsmen, lifeless, while the other cavalrymen directly chose to surrender.
