Although Daliang was founded by force, due to geographical environment problems, it was impossible to raise war horses on a large scale. As a result, there were very few cavalry and most of them fought on foot.
When facing cavalry in infantry combat, without relying on terrain or city defense, facing cavalry is almost a one-sided massacre.
Daliang and Beidi have been at war with each other for decades, and Daliang has suffered most of the losses. The soldiers on the border have long lost their fighting spirit.
Not to mention defeating the Beidi cavalry head-on, I am afraid that the two armies will face each other and collapse at the first touch.
Seeing Qin Tianhu swinging his whip, Qin Feng jumped out all the way and stood in the yard, ready to escape at any time, but refused to admit defeat:
"Sergeant Daliang, it's not just the border troops. There are heavy troops in each town. Since the border troops are timid, we will send heroic troops to replace them.
"Not to mention defeating the Beidi cavalry head-on, as long as the enemy cavalry charges and the formation is not chaotic, it is enough.
"Use archers to replace the basic infantry, and improve the ordnance to create strong crossbows. Five thousand archers form an integrated army, and the first two rows use strong crossbows to kill people from a distance. Anyone who enters the eight hundred infantry and cavalry will face a rain of strong crossbows. .
"When the enemy cavalry reaches 300 steps, three, four or five rows of archers can be fired progressively. This can not only effectively kill the enemy's forces, but also disrupt the local charge formation and weaken the impact of the first wave of cavalry as much as possible.
"In front of the archer formation, we formed three rows to fight on foot. The first row held heavy shields, the second row set up spears, and the third row set up short spears. Those damn cavalry could break through the spear formation. I performed a handstand pull on the spot...
"Ahem, anyway, I don't believe that cavalry can fly overhead.
“With this formation, only the two wings are weakly defended, so we only need to defend the two wings, which is enough to defeat the cavalry.
"You only need to set up a team on each wing, mainly using long weapons such as plain knives, bent knives, and falling knives, supplemented by short weapons, to instantly eliminate the weakness of the two wings.
"What a piece of bullshit cavalry, if you dare to confront someone head-on, you will never come back and your entire army will be wiped out!
"If we adopt guerrilla tactics and harass small groups, it doesn't matter. Crossbows and longbows can kill the rangers beyond the opponent's effective shooting range.
"Why, I am an archer standing on the ground, but I can't shoot as accurately as others on horseback?
"If the enemy's cavalry encircles the rear, the long-sword troops on both sides of our formation can encircle the enemy in time and return to defense."
Qin Feng talked a lot and felt very proud. He thought to himself that he had watched so many military movies, seen so many military enthusiasts bragging on the Internet, and played so many Three Kingdoms war games. Could it be that he was still no better than a few barbarian tribes?
When Qin Tianhu saw Qin Feng talking non-stop, his expression became more and more contemptuous, and he was about to curse and tell this nonsense-talking brat to get out.
But then, his eyes gradually widened.
What Qin Feng said just now seems like gossip and armchair talk, but if you think about it carefully, this set of tactical arrangements is extremely complete!
If it can be reorganized and its strengths brought into play, it will become a complete set of tactics and military strategies, which can be said to be invincible in dealing with cavalry!
It's a pity that Qin Feng's tactics have a fatal flaw, that is, they can only form formations to resist, but cannot pursue victory.
After all, cavalry has always been Daliang's weakness.
Moreover, the Beidi cavalry relies on fighting to support fighting.
As long as the opponent returns without success, it actually equals victory in the war.
In this way, this tactic is extremely advisable!
At the same time, Qin Tianhu grasped a key point, rushed to Qin Feng who was hiding in the yard and refused to come near, and asked angrily: "What are the strong crossbow and the Modao?"
According to the memory of the past life, this world is not only backward in literature, but also in military terms, it is more than one level behind Qin Feng's world.
The army arms can be roughly divided into three types: swordsmen, short archers, and cavalry.
As far as archers are concerned, the archers of Daliang are archers in the literal sense. They have no other weapons except bows and arrows. Once the enemy gets close, they basically can only wait to die.
Unlike the archers in their own world, in addition to bows and arrows, they are also equipped with auxiliary weapons such as knives and axes, or spears and knives.
Once the enemy troops rush to the front of the formation, every archer can instantly transform into a melee infantry.
Seeing Qin Tianhu staring straight at him, Qin Feng did not dare to approach rashly, with a smile on his face: "A simple sword and a strong crossbow can't be explained in a few words. If the father wants to know, the child can draw it and he will know it at a glance. But... "
"Father needs to put down the whip first."
Seeing Qin Feng looking timid and cowardly, Qin Tianhu became furious.
However, in order to find out what the simple sword and strong crossbow was, he still had the patience to throw the whip aside: "Just come here."
Finally spared the physical pain, Qin Feng instantly became happy and jumped into the house with steps that he would not recognize his relatives. Qin Tianhu's face turned dark again when he saw it.
Qin Feng took the paper and pen handed over by Liu Hongyan and almost leaned half of his body on the table. Since he had never practiced calligraphy, he simply held the brush upside down in his hand, tilted his head and thought for a while, then scribbled on the paper. The ground was painted.
The simple knife is easy to draw, and it can be done in just a few or two strokes.
This powerful crossbow was a bit more complicated. Qin Feng thought for a long time before drawing out some important parts.
Then he threw the brush aside, ran to the yard, picked up a branch, dipped it in ink and used it as a pencil, and marked the name and function under each part.
Finally, write down the simple principles clearly.
Qin Feng clamped the branch between his middle finger and index finger, shook it, and said proudly: "It's done."
Liu Hongyan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "It's amazing how you recite poems and write poems, but your painting is really... too ugly."
Qin Feng shrugged and said disapprovingly: "What's wrong with being ugly? As long as you can understand it."
Qin Tianhu stared at the diagram, thought for a long time, and slowly turned to look at Qin Feng: "How did you learn about these two things?"
How to explain this? Could it be that I learned it from military documentaries? Qin Tianhu will definitely be regarded as a fool and kicked out.
Qin Feng simply showed his shameless plagiarism spirit and said without blushing: "Of course I invented it myself. I used to tinker with it when I had nothing to do, and I didn't know if it would work..."
Before Qin Feng could finish speaking, he received a solid slap on the forehead.
Qin Tianhu's eyes widened and he was furious: "You loser, once these two weapons are forged, they will be magic weapons in the army. If you had taken them out earlier, how could our border troops suffer so much?"
After scolding, Qin Tianhu tucked the diagram under his arm and entered the rest room built into the study with a dark face.
Qin Feng tiptoed over and listened through the crack in the door. Qin Tianhu deliberately lowered his voice, but he still couldn't help but feel excited:
"As expected of me, Qin Tianhu's son. As expected, the tiger's father has no dog son. With these two weapons, and supplemented by military strategies, we will surely be able to make Beidi come and go without any return, and enhance the prestige of our country, Daliang!"
