Chapter 251 Giant Rhino Cavalry
Chapter 251 The Giant Rhino Cavalry
The wolf howled and strode to Meng Hu and said, "Big Head, I have a question to ask you."
Meng Hu slowly turned around and said with a smile: "I thought you would have to come to me in at least half a month, but I didn't expect you to be able to hold it in so soon."
When Wolf Howl heard this, a hint of embarrassment suddenly flashed across his face, but he quickly said anxiously: "The Great Head of State, after seeing your outstanding martial arts and the trust of the leaders of various tribes in you, now I see that you have transformed so many excellent weapons and equipment from the barren wilderness. I have no doubt that you can really destroy the Tianlang clan."
Meng Hu waved his hand and said very coldly: "I have said a long time ago that how to choose is on you, but the ultimate fate of the Tianlang clan is definitely not something you can decide. If you insist on doing your own thing and insist on going against the coalition forces of all races on the Great Wilderness, then I can only lead the coalition forces of all races to destroy your Tianlang clan."
"But I have a problem." Wolf Howl said muffled, "If I brought the Tianlang clan to surrender to the big leader, I wonder what the big leader would use to support my Tianlang clan's tens of thousands of old, young, and children?"
"First of all, correct your statement." Meng Hu said solemnly, "The Tianlang tribe did not surrender to me, but cooperated with me. At least for the moment. As for what will happen in the future, it depends on the situation in the future. As for how you said how to support the Tianlang tribe's elderly, children, women and children, this is indeed a problem, and a very serious problem."
The wolf howled and said, "I want to know what the chief of the great leader thinks."
Meng Hu said coldly: "My idea is very simple, that is, to ask for food from the Middle-earth people."
The wolf howled in surprise and said, "Will they give it to the Middle-earth people?"
"Of course, the Middle-earth people will not hand over the food obediently, but we can get it and rob it ourselves." Meng Hu said, "The barren wilderness cannot support too much population. The old camp of the Black Bear tribe will definitely not be able to maintain a cavalry of 200,000 cavalry, so we can only send troops to rob it."
The wolf howling's mind was obviously a little too far to turn, and he murmured: "But for a long time, the Middle-earth people are invading our territory and plundering our population. We have never taken the initiative to attack them. Now, we suddenly penetrate the heartland of Middle-earth. Isn't that too risky?"
"Adventure?" Meng Hu sneered, "For me, catching food in Middle Earth is as easy as going home."
"It's as easy as going home?" The wolf howled and murmured, and then he was silent. Meng Hu's words shocked him greatly, and it could be said that the views of the barbarians on the Great Wilderness were suddenly subverted.
Meng Hu said: "I know you still don't believe it now, but it doesn't matter. At most half a month, this great head of state will lead the first batch of armed cavalry to go south to the Glorious Empire. Aren't you a peerless hero who has always claimed to be the leader of the tribe who is the best in the Great Wilderness? This time, this great head of state will let you see what is the real military use and what is the real cavalry war."
"This..." Lang Shao said again, and now he didn't know what to say.
…………
After a turn, half a month had passed, and the first fully armed light cavalry in the Great Wilderness was released.
The number of light cavalrymen is not large, with only 20,000 cavalry, of which two thousand cavalry are veterans of the Tiger Legion brought by Meng Hu. These veterans have now taken on the heavy responsibility and become the backbone of this newly formed light cavalry army. Among the remaining 18 cavalry, there are three thousand cavalry leopard cavalry, five thousand cavalry black bear cavalry, five thousand cavalry tiger cavalry, five thousand cavalry wolf cavalry, and two thousand cavalry female cavalry.
Meng Hu armed this light cavalry completely according to the standard of Mongolian cavalry on Earth. The 20,000 cavalry were equipped with a total of 60,000 war horses, and most of them were mares, which could provide a large amount of horse milk during the march, which greatly alleviated the logistical pressure of this cavalry unit.
As for weapons, all cavalry are equipped with new sabers and cavalry bows. The new sabers borrow the style of the Oriental Sword on the Earth World, and are slender and sharp. They can not only perform fierce chopping and slashing actions, but also perform tactical actions of provoking. They are really a weapon for horse fighting. Cavalry bows completely abandon the large and long infantry longbow style of the Middle-earth people. Although they sacrifice a certain range advantage, the lethality within a hundred steps is still no less than that of the infantry longbow.
Armor is not the focus of light cavalry equipment, but Meng Hu still equipped each light cavalry with helmets and three relatively thin scales, one scale covers the vital points of the chest and abdomen, and the other two scales cover their thighs.
Finally, in order to improve combat efficiency, Meng Hu adjusted the system of the legion and abandoned the sixth-level system of corps, divisions, corps, brigades, squadrons, and squads commonly used in Middle-earth world, and changed to the four-level system of corps, battalions, regiments, teams, and squads. Each squad has ten people, a squad leader, each cavalry team has one hundred people, a captain, each cavalry regiment has one thousand people, a regiment leader, each cavalry battalion has five thousand people, a commander, each cavalry corps has two thousand people, and a general.
The 20,000 cavalry happened to be a cavalry corps, and Meng Hu served as the general of the army.
The commanders of the four cavalry battalions were respectively Xiong Batian, Tiger Roar, Wolf Howl, Jade Fox King, and Jia Wudao served as military advisors.
After reorganizing the first well-equipped cavalry legion in history on the Great Wilderness, Meng Hu ordered the cavalry battalions to strengthen training, especially the training of cavalry shooting, while summoning leaders of all races to announce the goal of this plundering operation.
In the wild bear beach, the central army's tent, the leaders of all races had gathered together. Jia Wudao was explaining to the leaders of all races in front of the screen. He saw Jia Wudao knocking on the sheepskin map on the screen with a bamboo whip in his hand and saying, "Look at all, leaders, this is our current location, and Yebeitan is also our base camp."
"A circle with our base camp as the center is drawn with a radius of 2,000 miles. The Eagle Tribe in the east and the Sky Wolf Tribe in the northeast are just on the edge of the arc. The Great Pasture of the East of the Galaxy Empire is on the west, and the Death Desert in the southeast, the Northeast Province of the Glorious Empire, and the Southwest is a corner of the northern province of the Glorious Empire."
"Among these areas, I believe everyone knows that only three areas are suitable for our destinations for this operation, namely the northeastern province of the Guanghui Empire in the south, the northern province of the Guanghui Empire in the southwest, and the eastern prairie of the Galaxy Empire in the west. However, most of the northern provinces and northeastern provinces of the Guanghui Empire have strong cities to defend, and there are a large number of heavy infantrymen. It is difficult for our light cavalry to fight hard with them. In addition, the northern legion and the Northeastern legion of the Guanghui Empire each have two divisions of light cavalry, with a total force of nearly 100,000 cavalry. Once we are pursued by these 100,000 cavalry, let alone raise food, I am afraid that we can come back."
Jia Wudao finally said: "So, we can only raise food from the Galaxy Empire this time."
"No, military advisor." Jia Wudao finished speaking, but the howl of the wolf who was following the army unexpectedly asked, "The reason why we dare not go to the Glorious Empire is because the two armies in the north and northeast of the Glorious Empire have 100,000 cavalry, but the Galaxy Empire has always been established with cavalry, and their number of cavalry is probably more dangerous than the Glorious Empire. "
"Otherwise." Jia Wudao shook his head and explained, "Although the Galaxy Empire was established with cavalry, the number of cavalry is indeed more than that of the Guanghui Empire, the Galaxy Empire is vast. The five cavalry corps in China are divided into Guangmao territory with an area of nearly 10,000 miles. It is impossible to summon it in a hurry. It is even possible that we have already raised food and returned to the Great Wilderness. The emperor of the Galaxy Empire has just received the news."
The wolf howled, "What about Qin Shan, the eastern prince of the Galaxy Empire? He also has 100,000 cavalry under his command."
Jia Wudao smiled and said, "I said, the Galaxy Empire is vast, even the Great Grassland in the east of the Mo River is thousands of miles in radius. The 100,000 cavalry in Qinshan sounds like a large number, but it is scattered in dozens of large pastures. In addition, these cavalry are all herders who grazed and will only be summoned in wartime. The leader of the Wolf Howling, I would like to ask, if you want to gather the 60,000 cavalry of the Tianlang clan, howls, how long will it take?"
"Well..." Lang Howl replied after pondering for a moment, "It will take at least half a month."
"Hahaha." Jia Wudao laughed, "But we can't give Qin Shan so much time to gather his troops. This time our attack, to the words of the Great Head of State, was a blitzkrieg. Because there was no strong city on the Modong Grassland, the Xinghe people could not be able to stop our army's troops. So within half a month, our army was enough to sweep the entire Modong Grassland. When the Xinghe people reacted and mobilized the cavalry on the Monan Grassland and the Mobei Grassland to counterattack, we had already driven millions of cattle, sheep and livestock to return to the Great Wilderness."
Meng Hu finally stood up and said, "With this batch of cattle, sheep, livestock and galaxy slaves, we can expand the scale of Yexiongtan iron ore mining again, forge more weapons and armor, and also support a larger cavalry. At that time, we will not only form light cavalry, but also form heavy cavalry and baggage troops. As long as we have heavy cavalry and baggage troops, our targets will no longer be limited to the people of the Galaxy, and the glorious Empire will also be our target of ravage."
"Heavy Cavalry?" Lang Howling suddenly became excited when he heard this and said loudly, "Big Head, when it comes to heavy cavalry, I suddenly remembered the Giant Rhinoceros cavalry of the Giant Rhinoceros tribe. It is much more powerful than the heavy cavalry of the Middle-earth people."
Meng Hu's expression was trembling when he heard this and asked in a low voice: "Giant Rhino Cavalry?"
"Well." Wolf Howl said with a heavy emphasis, "Because the tribe territory is adjacent, in order to compete for a water grassland, our Tianlang tribe and the Giant Rhinoceros tribe have fought several battles, but we suffered a great loss from the Giant Rhinoceros cavalry. These big guys are as tall as the mountain. When the five or six giant Rhinoceros cavalry charged forward, the earth was shaken, and our formation was destroyed in an instant."
