Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup
Chapter 964 Who says infantry can't fight cavalry?
"They're here! They're here! The enemy!"
The Ever Victorious Army scouts have sent word that the enemy is about to arrive on the battlefield, and all units should prepare!
"Brother Yuan Lang, is it enough for us to ambush them? Although we are strong, we are still just infantry, while the enemy is cavalry."
Although Liu Tang was excited about being able to fight the Liao people, he calmed down and tried to analyze the current situation.
"What's wrong, Brother Liu Tang? Are you scared?"
Upon hearing Liu Tang's words, Jiao Ting exhaled a large puff of hot air from his nostrils and addressed Liu Tang.
"What am I afraid of? If you're afraid when fighting the Liao people, you're not a true hero!"
Liu Tang puffed out his chest, indicating that he was not afraid at all.
"Even if we're not afraid, we can't risk our brothers' lives in a head-on fight. Infantry fighting cavalry is a losing proposition no matter how you look at it. Brother Yuan Lang, you're a veteran of Liangshan, you can't make a mistake!"
"Don't worry, it's not just our army that has ambushes. Teacher Xu's Golden Spear Army is also nearby."
Yuan Lang comforted Liu Tang.
"Furthermore, Brother Liu Tang, who said infantry can't defeat cavalry?"
“Our infantry brothers in the Ever Victorious Army specialize in fighting cavalry.”
Since Yuan Lang had already said that, what else could Liu Tang say? He suppressed his doubts and then wanted to see what the Ever Victorious Army would do next.
"General, the crossbows are ready!"
Another junior officer came to deliver a message.
"Jiao Ting, Liu Tang, you two stay here and watch over this place. I'm going to check on the archers."
Upon hearing this news, Yuan Lang immediately prepared to leave.
"Brother Yuan Lang, when did we set up the crossbows?"
Liu Tang was surprised. Yuan Lang had been with him the whole time, and he hadn't seen him give any orders.
“Brother Liu Tang, you haven’t been here long and there are many things you don’t know. Our Ever-Victorious Army has its own set of rules. I’ll let you familiarize yourself with them another day.”
Yuan Lang patted Liu Tang's arm and then left.
"Brother, why don't you stay here and keep watch for now? I want to go with Brother Yuan Lang to take a look."
Liu Tang was very curious about everything about the Ever Victorious Army.
"Go ahead, I'm here."
Jiao Ting waved his hand, "Anyway, Liu Tang, this is how I've been helping Brother Yuan Lang with his worries before you came."
After receiving Jiao Ting's affirmative answer, Liu Tang happily chased after Yuan Lang. As soon as he arrived, he was shocked by the Ever Victorious Army's crossbow positions.
The light and heavy crossbows on the ground were arranged in an alternating pattern, their arrowheads gleaming with a terrifying light!
Especially in the heavy crossbow formation, Liu Tang saw many heavy crossbows that looked extremely powerful! It took several soldiers working together to set up those crossbows.
"How are the arrows prepared?"
Yuan Lang inquired.
"General, rest assured, the broken horse arrow is ready!"
The soldiers are loading horse-piercing arrows into the heavy crossbows. These arrows are so thick that they are almost indistinguishable from spears!
"hurry up!"
Yuan Lang didn't say much, rolled up his sleeves, and joined the team setting up the crossbows.
Yuan Lang is very strong, and after he joined the team, the efficiency of the whole team improved a lot.
"I'll help too."
Seeing this, Liu Tang naturally dared not continue to stand by and watch the show, so he also joined the group. Liu Tang was also quite strong, and with his help, the crossbow formation quickly completed its final preparations.
After the team finished their work and rested for a while, they suddenly felt the ground shaking beneath their feet, and the shaking became stronger and stronger!
"They're here! And they're very fast!"
The Ever Victorious Army soldiers were all veterans. Upon hearing the commotion, they immediately got up, moved to their designated positions, and began adjusting the positions of their bows and crossbows, preparing to take aim!
"Here comes the arrow!"
Yuan Lang picked up the thickest broken horse arrow, walked to the heavy crossbow left for him, took a deep breath, bulged his arm muscles, and prepared to fire.
"Rumble..."
At this moment, Aliqi's cavalry appeared before everyone's eyes! The vanguard was moving at a very fast speed through this relatively narrow road!
"Young General! There's definitely an ambush on the mountain! Most likely, there are archers!"
Tian Shanyong was a master archer, and he knew exactly what to do as soon as he saw the terrain.
"The Song people's bows and crossbows are good, but their men are incompetent and their accuracy is poor. All troops, speed up and charge!"
Arich had no intention of slowing down; instead, he squeezed his horse a couple more times, increasing the speed to another level!
"Yes!"
As Liao people, Tianshan Yong and others were very confident in their horsemanship. They grew up on horseback, and high-speed raids were a specialty of the Liao army.
They knew that as long as they ran fast enough, the Song army's arrows would miss!
"Brother Yuan Lang, they've sped up!"
Liu Tang stood behind a crossbow with a large hammer in his hand. After many heavy crossbows were loaded with bolts and aimed, the strings were secured with wooden pegs. When it was time to fire, a strong hammer blow would release the powerful force of the crossbow strings!
"Never mind that, once the army arrives, fire into the crowd!"
At this moment, Yuan Lang was using his arms to draw the crossbow, then controlling the direction of the heavy crossbow, retreating step by step to fully draw the string!
Judging from where he was aiming, he was preparing to send Aliqi, who was charging at the front, away with one arrow!
It's near, it's near!
Yuan Lang mentally estimated the speed of the crossbow bolts and the cavalry. When he felt it was about right, he suddenly shouted!
"Victorious Army! Release!!"
"Whoosh whoosh..."
With his roar, thousands of crossbow bolts soared into the air from the Ever Victorious Army's crossbow positions, swarming towards the Liao cavalry like locusts!
"Dodge! Dodge!"
Tian Shanyong had been keeping a close eye on the situation around him, and when he saw the rain of arrows shooting into the sky, his pupils shrank.
He had expected to be ambushed, but he hadn't imagined there would be so many people lying in ambush!
"Young General, get out of the way!!"
Moreover, among all those crossbow bolts, Tenzan Yong noticed one particularly thick bolt, its target aimed directly at Alichi's horse!
The loyal man suddenly spurred his horse at this crucial moment, causing it to accelerate and come to a position almost parallel to Aliqi's mount!
Then, in the next moment, a thick, broken arrow, carrying a powerful impact, pierced the neck of Tianshan's brave warhorse! A spray of blood erupted from it!
"Sorry..."
Tianshan Yong's warhorse let out a mournful neigh, its galloping body uncontrollably falling towards Aliqi's warhorse! If it fell hard, Aliqi would probably be pulled down as well.
In the moment of crisis, Aliqi remained calm and demonstrated his skillful horsemanship, managing to swerve his warhorse to the side and avoid Tianshan Yong's horse.
Aliqi stretched out an arm, and before his warhorse fell to the ground, Tianshan Yong grabbed Aliqi's arm and jumped onto his horse, thus avoiding the fate of being knocked down by his own mount and trampled into mincemeat by the rear guard!
"Young General! This is no friendly spies! My horse!"
Tian Shan Yong felt sad; his warhorse had been with him for so long!
"Tianshan Yong! Don't be sad! When we win, I'll make you two horses!"
