The chariot general has been fighting for half his life, but now he feels that his three views have been subverted.
If it's five hundred people versus five thousand, the chance of defeating more with less is actually greater.
Because these five hundred people have enough manpower to take turns to rest. If there is slight restraint between the arms, or the terrain, morale, and equipment advantages, then the chance of victory will be greater.
As for critical battles and night attacks, they are not considered because there are too many variables.
However, Qin Feng defeated an enemy ten times his own with only fifty men. The most important thing was that no one on his side was killed or even injured.
This seems a bit bizarre.
After much thought, the Cavalry General felt that the only possibility was that the weapons, equipment, skills and tactics were too different in strength.
Qin Tianhu's answer also confirmed the general's guess.
"Those hundreds of thieves are all rogue bandits. Not only do they have no armor, they don't even have armor-breaking weapons."
"Except for a small number of inferior spears, the best weapons are swords and shields."
After hearing this, the three generals suddenly realized.
You know, the Black Cavalry is a well-known heavy cavalry, and its armor is stronger than that of heavy infantry.
Even if he stood still and let the opponent slash with his knife for a long time, he might not be able to injure the black knight.
Even strong crossbows and hard bows may not be effective against black knights. After all, the power of armor-piercing arrows is completely affected by external factors.
Although in theory, it can penetrate heavy armor, in practice, it can only make a hole and can hardly damage the soldier itself.
If you want to rely on a powerful crossbow to penetrate heavy armor, you must work hard on the arrow itself.
The armor-piercing arrows made by the Tianji Battalion have always been strictly controlled. Not to mention rogue bandits, even the regular army of Daliang may not be able to obtain them.
After all, the workmanship of Tianji Camp's armor-piercing arrows is too complicated. The cost of a single armor-piercing arrow is equivalent to three ordinary conical arrows.
Qin Feng's own troops alone must be used with caution and cannot withstand any squandering.
As for the hard bow, in addition to the arrow itself, it also needs the craftsmanship of the hard bow and the blessing of archery to truly kill heavily armored targets.
In any case, relying on bows and crossbows to kill heavily armored targets is, to put it bluntly, a matter of money. Unless they are ace troops, few troops can afford the consumption of high-quality arrows.
Apart from these two weapons, the only weapons that are most effective in defeating the Black Cavalry are long weapons and blunt weapons.
And long weapons also require prerequisites, and they must rely on the power of horses.
Whether you are riding your own horse to attack the black knight, or forming a formation and waiting for the black knight to rush towards you, in short, if you want to rely on long weapons to penetrate the black knight's armor, your strength must be strong enough.
As a result, the only weapons that can truly be called the black knight's nemesis are blunt weapons.
For example, a two-handed axe, or various hammers.
It is not necessary to break the armor. As long as it is swung vigorously, it can have the effect of "beating an ox across a mountain". The soldiers inside can be injured through the armor.
Although the workmanship of blunt weapons is relatively simple, the huge "iron lump" alone costs a lot of money. Therefore, only the regular army will equip blunt weapons on a large scale.
A group of bandits without armor-breaking weapons or armor ambushed the black knights, and the result was a one-sided massacre with eggs against rocks.
The Cavalry General couldn't help but sneered: "These idiots don't even know who they are facing."
"Knowing that the Marquis of Qin is surrounded by heavily armored cavalry, yet you still dare to attack. You are really looking for death!"
The former general also snorted with utmost contempt: "Although heavy cavalry has great limitations, as the backbone of the battlefield, it must work with heavy infantry to break through the enemy's center."
"The armor is strong and the weapons are sharp, it can be said that it is indestructible."
"There are many types of soldiers who can destroy the Black Cavalry, but none of them dare to fight the Black Cavalry in close combat. This group of thieves who are newborn calves and are not afraid of tigers are really tired of living."
The reason why Qin Tianhu emphasizes Qin Feng's record is to tell everyone that there is no need to worry about Qin Feng.
This is the territory of Daliang. Even if the wealthy families in the south have hidden evil intentions, they can only hire a small number of desperadoes to launch sneak attacks.
Without regular troops, trying to encircle and suppress Qin Feng is tantamount to wishful thinking.
Qin Tianhu said calmly: "After Feng'er left Yuping County, he went to Ming County and solved the rising wealthy families entrenched in the local area."
"This wealthy family's surname is Wang, and his backer is actually the prefect of this state."
"I have already sent someone to notify the Minister of Household Affairs. When the Wang Zhifu comes to Beijing to report on his duties, he can just remove this person and replace him."
"Although the magistrate has a high rank and is in charge of three states, the people below him are the ones who really do the actual work."
"Therefore, as long as the magistrate is still there, even if the magistrate is temporarily removed, there will be no trouble."
Speaking of this, Qin Tianhu suddenly took a deep breath and his tone became deeper.
"Feng'er arrived in Gyeonggi Province yesterday. The reason why he hasn't entered the city yet is because something happened in Cixian County."
"The dead soldiers of the Yuezhao Kingdom hired by the wealthy clan in the south robbed more than a hundred civilians and used them as threats."
"Feng'er had to lead the black cavalry to rescue him."
Having learned from the past, the girls are no longer nervous.
Especially Shen Qingci. Even hundreds of bandits could not do anything to Qin Feng before. Now, facing a mere seventy dead soldiers, he must be able to solve the problem easily.
As a result, at this moment, the cavalry general suddenly exclaimed.
"What?! The dead soldiers of Zhaoguo in July and October?!"
"The Marquis of Qin only led fifty black cavalry to kill him? This... this is too dangerous!"
Hearing this, the girls looked at each other, finally relaxed, and began to tense up again.
Liu Hongyan frowned slightly and quickly asked: "Are these seventy people more difficult to deal with than the hundreds of people we met in Yuping County before?"
The cavalry general's eyes were solemn: "It's more than difficult to deal with!"
"Yuezhao Country is rich in dead soldiers. They are all elites who collect money from others to help others to eliminate disasters. The opponent has a total of seventy people. If they are well-equipped, I am afraid that the black knight will be seriously injured."
"The only troops that can deal with the dead soldiers of Yuezhao Kingdom are the regular army or the guards of the Tianji Battalion."
"And even the guards of the Tianji Battalion will definitely face casualties."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Hongyan's heart suddenly jumped up.
The other female relatives present also turned pale.
General Chariot and Cavalry quickly looked at Qin Tianhu: "Sir Taiwei, these dead soldiers of Yuezhao Kingdom don't have armor-breaking weapons, right?"
Qin Tianhu sighed softly: "From armor to armor-piercing arrows, we have them all."
General Chariot and Cavalry's face fell, and he quickly asked: "Then Marquis Qin..."
Before the cavalry general finished speaking, Qin Tianhu had already raised his head and laughed: "That kid Feng'er used a divorce plan to kill all those seventy people."
