System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

"Except for the joints and face, which can't be protected with iron, all parts of this armor are made of iron."

"The ordinary soldiers' stabbing attacks and bow and arrow shooting were basically ignored."

"Only the crossbow can penetrate the armor plates. However, with the armor plates protecting them, even if the crossbow penetrates the armor plates, it cannot cause significant damage."

"General, I can guarantee that the current Flying Bear Army can defeat an army of tens of thousands!"

Li Hu, Liu Yan and Hu Fei all clasped their fists and shouted excitedly.

"Although the defense has been enhanced, the horse's endurance is still not enough to sustain a long battle..."

"It's time to get the three-piece time travel suit."

Dong Yu rubbed his chin and thought to himself.

The role of cavalry in those days was very limited. Even Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry could only hold the horse's neck and chop with a ring-handled sword.

Only Gongsun Zan's White Horse Volunteers were capable of riding and shooting.

Even so, it would take countless years of training to train thousands of elite cavalrymen who could ride and shoot.

Ordinary princes do not have the time, money or source of war horses.

Therefore, infantry was the mainstream of this era, and cavalry was mainly used for reconnaissance, transmitting information, and traveling.

Even the cavalry formed by many princes had to dismount and fight on foot during combat.

The reason is the inconvenience of war horses.

"Li Hu, Liu Yan, and Hu Fei, the three of you will organize your soldiers and mount their horses. This general will observe your fighting methods."

Dong Yu regained his composure and gave serious instructions to the three people.

"The last general takes command!"

The three of them clasped their hands together at the same time.

After about two quarters of an hour, three thousand Feixiong soldiers mounted their horses and divided into several teams on the training ground.

Compared to the real swords and guns used in wartime, non-lethal weapons such as wooden sticks are used during military drills.

"Each team has two hundred men. Anyone who is hit three times by a stick is considered dead."

"If you don't retreat after being hit three times, you will be punished according to military law and beaten with thirty military sticks!"

Three military commanders organized the soldiers' training.

They practice this kind of drill often, so the rules must be ingrained in their minds.

Therefore, the three of them were actually speaking to Dong Yu.

"Team One, Team Two, Fight!"

Li Hu waved the command flag and announced loudly.

Following Li Hu's order, the two cavalry units roared.

"kill!"

The cavalry on both sides galloped on their horses, holding wooden sticks and killing their opponents.

Although it was just a melee between 400 cavalrymen, the impact was still quite strong.

Dong Yu stood on the high platform, silently watching the fighting methods of the Feixiong Army soldiers.

Simple yet deadly moves such as stabbing, slashing, and picking.

Due to the incompleteness of the horse harness, these soldiers could only hold their weapons with one hand, which made their strength and accuracy much worse.

The wooden stick hit the black armor, leaving white dust, proving that the person had been hit once.

After about half an hour, one of the teams was completely wiped out, and only a few soldiers survived on the winning side.

"Can you shoot a bow on horseback?"

Dong Yu tilted his head and asked Hu Fei.

"We three are fine, but the rest of the brothers might be in trouble."

"Drawing a bow on horseback requires extremely high horsemanship. Aside from armies like the Hu dogs from the frontier who have been riding horses since childhood, no other army in the world could possibly do it."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and explained.

Hearing this, Dong Yu nodded slightly.

The other party did not mention the White Horse Volunteers, probably because he did not know much about them.

After all, it was difficult for Dong Zhuo's army to have friction with Gongsun Zan, and there were no short videos in that era, so it was normal that they didn't know about it.

"What if you could sit on the horse's back and ride smoothly without using your hands?"

Dong Yu asked again with a serious face.

"That should be fine."

"Before joining the Flying Bear Army, my brothers were all cavalrymen in various armies. Even if they didn't have ten years of experience, they had at least six or seven years of cavalry experience."
