Chapter 270 Do you want to take back the city?
Soon, the five soldiers' horse riding and archery performance came to an end.
After seeing this scene, Jiang Chen nodded to the five veterans behind him and said, "Go ahead and show your former comrades how strong you are now!"
"Yes!"
When the five old soldiers heard Jiang Chen's words, they jumped on their horses without hesitation!
And as they climbed onto their horses, their momentum suddenly increased!
Under the shocked gazes of the centurions and onlookers, these old soldiers kept shooting with their compound bows!
"How can this be!?"
"How dare they shoot arrows when they are so far away from the target!"
"That's not right! Why didn't they grab the reins after they released the arrows? Aren't they afraid of falling off?!"
"What's going on? They're shooting arrows again!"
"Hiss! It hits the target!"
"They all hit the target from such a long distance!"
"So strong! How come they are so powerful!"
"Yeah, they weren't this strong before!"
“What… is going on!?”
The soldiers watching were all stunned!
The strength displayed by these five old soldiers!
Especially the technique of loosening the reins and continuously drawing the bow with both hands!
You know, even the elite cavalry of the grassland wouldn't dare to do this!
After all, every time they loosened the reins, they had to use their legs to hold the horses tightly.
This is very physically demanding.
In addition, constantly drawing the bow and drawing the arrow is also extremely physically demanding!
How...how did they do that!?
Not only were the soldiers shocked, but the captains were even more stunned!
As generals, they naturally know how terrifying this ability is!
If their soldiers all have such strength, then... they will definitely not be afraid of the grassland cavalry!
……
Everyone was looking at Jiang Chen with eyes full of shock!
After a while, the five old soldiers came back. After they came back, they did not speak, but stood respectfully behind Jiang Chen!
"This... How did you do it!? How are you so strong!?"
Tie Niu couldn't suppress his curiosity and stared at the five people.
However, the five people did not answer.
At this time, Jiang Chen looked at Huang Xuan.
"Commander Huang, we should have won the first match, right?"
"What shall we compete in next? An individual fight, or a five-on-five or group fight?"
"No need for individual combat, let's fight as a group of five against five!"
Huang Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Okay, let's get started!"
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.
In this team battle, both sides used wooden spears with the front end wrapped in cotton cloth to avoid casualties!
As the two sides are arranged, the battle is about to begin!
The distance between the two sides was nearly two hundred steps.
After all, the strength of cavalry lies in their impact force. If they are too close, they cannot exert their full strength!
As both sides began to attack, the five men under Jiang Chen adjusted their formation while attacking!
They were led by one person, and the remaining four were arranged behind him, forming an arrow shape!
As the two sides get closer, the battle is about to break out!
"Bang bang bang!"
Muffled sounds were heard one after another, and the spears in the hands of the soldiers on both sides kept crossing and attacking each other!
However, those generals have already realized that Jiang Chen’s men... are bound to win!
Because when they fight, their hands can remain off the horse's back and they can continue swinging their spears.
However, the soldiers of the Shan Camp were unable to do this!
……
"boom!"
With a muffled sound, a soldier from the Shanzi Camp fell off his horse!
"Bang bang bang!"
As one person fell off his horse, the other soldiers fell to the ground one after another!
"This... our Shanzi Camp lost!?"
"No way, they were defeated by those wounded soldiers who were once seriously injured and discharged from the army!?"
"How can this be!?"
The eyes of the soldiers in the Shanzi Camp were filled with disbelief!
The captains also had mixed feelings at this time.
They didn't expect that they would lose so completely!
"Haha, now, are you all convinced?"
Jiang Chen looked at those thousand captains and smiled faintly.
"us……"
Tie Niu's face turned red and he couldn't speak a complete sentence.
But Huang Xuan fell to his knees with a thud!
"Huang Xuan, meet the general!"
"Meet the general!"
Following Huang Xuan's lead, the other captains all knelt on one knee in front of Jiang Chen!
They realized at this moment that what Jiang Chen had just said was not just empty talk!
The opponent can really make the Shanzi Camp stronger!
"Haha, very good. Since you generals trust me, then... I won't be polite!"
Jiang Chen looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and a sense of heroism arose spontaneously!
When he watched TV before, the person he admired most was Huo Qubing!
As for Huo Qubing's blitzkrieg and surprise attack on the grassland, he felt that he was a god!
Now that he has elite cavalry, he might as well give it a try!
"Please give me your orders, General!"
Huang Xuan and the others spoke in unison.
Since they have already recognized Jiang Chen, they will naturally obey his orders!
But Jiang Chen's next order left everyone dumbfounded!
Because Jiang Chen’s first order was actually... to reduce the cavalry!
……
"Commanders, my first order is very simple. I will give you three days to gather the current 10,000 cavalry into 5,000!"
"These five thousand cavalrymen, each with two horses, I want to train them!"
"As for the remaining 5,000 cavalry, let's change them to infantry for now!"
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
"What!?"
"Reduce 5,000 cavalry!?"
"General, 10,000 cavalrymen are not many. If there are only 5,000 left..."
Everyone spoke to Jiang Chen at the same time.
But Jiang Chen said in a deep voice: "No need to say more, I have made up my mind!"
"But don't worry, this strategy is only temporary. After we defeat the grassland cavalry and get more war horses, the other 5,000 people can still serve as cavalry!"
"Besides, I have 10,000 infantrymen and I am of great use to them!"
"They may bring you unexpected surprises in the future~"
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
But those generals still felt a little reluctant, and they themselves didn't want to become infantry!
Although these cavalry and infantry are both soldiers, the gap between them... is too big!
Jiang Chen also saw everyone's reluctance.
He smiled faintly and said, "You...want to take back the cities occupied by the grassland?"
"Um!?"
When everyone heard Jiang Chen's words, they were all stunned!
Jiang Chen...what do you mean?
Can we recapture the city occupied by the grassland! ?
This is impossible! ?
General Luo has been working hard over the years, but none of Marquis Jian'an's men have succeeded!
Jiang Chen...can do it! ?
"Haha, as long as you follow my instructions, I promise... I will take you back those cities and make you famous in history!"
"But you must obey my arrangements~"
Jiang Chen said this with a smile on his face, looking like a weird uncle who was seducing a little girl!
