Huang Yi knew that although he had many troops, his combat effectiveness was worrisome and he could not divide his troops into several groups to complete the encirclement.

Simply gather the sixty knights with the best equipment and line up in three rows to attack the front.

Imagine that the small tribe chose to surrender without a fight when they were attacked by several times the number of enemy troops.

Huang Yi rushed to the center of the first row with a high profile.

On his left are Agudamu and Gerda, who are equipped with iron armor, and on his right are two armored knights, Amguleng and Tsarahab.

Huang Yi owns six pairs of armor, and the remaining two pairs are given to Huang Dazhi and Huang Dapeng.

Because the two young men's bodies have grown up, they can still control the horses freely even though they bear the weight of the armor.

But Huang Yi was worried that newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, and he didn't want to see untrained young people suffer battle damage.

Arrange young men such as Huang Dazhi, Huang Dapeng and Huang Dayong in the second echelon to be killed later.

The reason is very simple. There are many young people and old people who have newly joined the second echelon. Without the supervision of close people, they may disperse in a hurry.

Initially, the teenagers were unwilling to go to the back, but after Huang Yi explained the reasons clearly, they obeyed the order obediently.

Huang Yi thought about the possibility that the other party would not surrender.

It was guessed that the opponent could not have too many knights to organize a confrontation. It was estimated that they would be dispersed as soon as the sixty selected men led by him personally charged.

Of course, the best result is to surrender without fighting.

But it is human nature not to shed tears before seeing the coffin. How could the tribal chief give up the resistance obediently?

"Rumble..."

Hundreds of horses were galloping, and the ground was shaking. The small tribe suddenly discovered the enemy attack and was immediately in chaos.

Huang Yi's team shouted in unison: "Surrender and avoid death, and save property, women, cattle and sheep!"

This sentence is of course in Mongolian. This was how everyone shouted when they first rounded up single families. Now they are speaking more smoothly and more neatly.

However, despite the eggs, this small tribe is actually very tenacious.

After a while, more than forty horses rushed over to fight.

Oh my god! How dare you hedge with such a small number of people?

Huang Yi was a little confused!

This shouldn’t be the plot! The imaginary scene should be that the party with a small number of people retreats while keeping distance, playing the "mangu evil" tactic.

Facing several times the number of enemies and rushing forward to fight is not fighting, it is seeking death!

If Huang Yi had thought that the opponent would rush forward and fight for his life, he would never appear in the middle of the first row.

He is not afraid of death, because he does not belong to this era. There is no guarantee that death will be like sleeping. When he opens his eyes, the scene in front of him is the autumn of 2021.

But he didn't want to die easily. It was rare that he came to the most miserable era of the Han nation. He dreamed of leading the Han nation to exterminate the slaves, conquer the Tartars, defeat the Western barbarians, and defeat the polar bears...

What to do now?

escape?

No, no!

How to escape if you are caught in the middle?

Moreover, if the general runs away before the battle, wouldn't the team collapse?

The only option is to bite the bullet!

Huang Yi shouted: "Everyone, stay still and maintain formation. If anyone shrinks from the battle, shoot and kill!"

The Agudamu brothers were not afraid at all, because this was their first face-to-face fight since they had iron armor and cotton armor.

They repeated Huang Yi's orders loudly in Mongolian.

Not to mention, even though it was a mob, but because there were so many people and there were so many older kids who were so young, their morale was so high that no one flinched.

The two armies were close to within a stone's throw of "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

Arrows, spears, and axes flew wildly from both sides, and some knights fell from their horses.

Huang Yi didn't fire the crossbow because he couldn't just control the horse with his legs. He was also worried that the crossbow would fall and be trampled by the horse when he was in a hurry.

He was the commander in chief, and he was in the center of the queue, so he was given special care by the other party.

More than a dozen feather arrows, two throwing spears, and a flying ax were all aimed at him.

The rotating ax hit Huang Yi's head with a muffled sound. Fortunately, the range was a bit far and the impact was much smaller. Huang Yi's tactical helmet was strong enough and did not cause any damage.

One of the spears was not strong enough to reach Huang Yi and was stuck on the ground in front of the horse. The other one was knocked down by Huang Yi wielding an engineer shovel.

There were too many arrows coming, so Huang Yi simply ignored them and resigned himself to fate.

However, the force of the scattered arrows is not very good, and it does not hurt much when it hits the body.

Since nearly half of the opponents were targeting Huang Yi, Huang Yi's team suffered less damage.

In addition, most of the knights gathered around Huang Yi were young adults. The arrows they shot, the axes they threw, and the spears they threw were all lethal, so they took advantage of him in the first round.

Only five of our side fell, while thirteen of the opponent's side fell.

The two Agudamu brothers were unambiguous and had already set their sights on each other's leader, shooting arrows at him.

The leader had a scar on his face and looked very vicious. The throwing ax hit Huang Yi accurately.

This may be their tactic. The purpose of their hedging is to kill the enemy's boss in one go.

If Huang Yi didn't have modern equipment, he would really have succeeded.

It can be seen that there are too many uncertainties in war. Don't underestimate the ancients.

The enemy general was shot by more than a dozen feather arrows, and even suffered a blow from his own flying axe, but he did not fall off his horse. This unexpected surprise made Chief Scarface stunned.

He is the number one warrior in this tribe. He is best at throwing axes. His most commonly used tactic is to kill the enemy's leader during a confrontation.

He clearly saw the flying ax chop on the head of the enemy general. Based on past experience, those who received this blow would immediately fall off their horses without exception.

But……

Changshengtian, what’s going on? Does the Immortal God no longer bless us?

The cavalry must concentrate when they are hedging. How can they be distracted?

Although the Scarface Chief was equipped with iron armor, he was shot in the shoulder socket and left chest by two arrows at close range by the Agudamu brothers while he was in a daze, causing him to bleed profusely.

The feather arrow was blocked by the armor and did not penetrate deeply into the flesh. It was definitely not fatal, but it caused him to lack strength when he was hedging. When Agudamu slashed with his sword, the leader was unable to dodge, and he was hit hard. He couldn't hold on and fell from his horse. .

There was a huge disparity in the battle damage caused by the hedging. The planned swarm to kill the enemy leader failed to materialize, and the will of resistance under Chief Scarface was completely lost.

The fall of Chief Scarface was the straw that broke the camel's back.

The remaining knights did not dare to hedge again and immediately fled in all directions.

Oh my god!

Huang Yi, who thought he had to bite the bullet and continue to charge, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his opponent starting to run away.

He didn't launch any attack from beginning to end, he was simply a target for attack.

But he was very happy because he finally participated in a cavalry duel.

It doesn't matter if you haven't accumulated experience in attacking the enemy. At least you have learned a lesson from being beaten.
