The moment when Richard's Ming Dynasty elite cavalry broke into the main military formation, Yuchi Yingzhe had previously arranged the elite in the front and back formations, and the disadvantage of the ordinary soldiers who did not wear iron armor was infinitely expanded!

The armor-wearing rate of soldiers in Yuchi Yingzhe's main army is allocated according to qualifications and military merits. In ancient armies, the qualifications and military merits of soldiers often mean comprehensive combat effectiveness!

Of course, there is no need to say much about military merits, and at the level of soldiers, there is no way for people with deep backgrounds to fill in the numbers. If there is a relationship and a way, even if you join the army, you will start directly from military officers. Only by being traumatized by the brain will you start from the lower-level soldiers, especially during the war period!

Starting from a soldier in this environment is not called courage, but real life!

In any era, the death rate of soldiers is much higher than that of officers!

Therefore, military merits at the soldier level are generally real results, and being able to obtain military merits itself proves the strength of the soldiers.

As for qualifications, senior officers may be suspected of being a waste of time, but at the level of soldiers, it represents a certain strength.

Soldiers on the battlefield do not have privileges and often have to go to the front line in person. After several major battles, even if they have not made any military achievements, just those who survived without being disabled and seriously injured and forced to retire were enough to be trained to become very strong veterans.

Not to mention the personal qualities of veterans, but veterans definitely have a way to save their lives. In an army with strict military discipline, being able to save lives has not violated military laws and was dealt with by their own people. Isn’t that a skill?

In any group, the lower the level, the more you value your individual abilities. On the contrary, middle and senior management are the competition of power such as connections and background, and abilities become insignificant.

Because low-level talents are the real people working in the entire group, middle and high-level leaders are the ones who manage and issue orders. As long as they have a deep background and manage their interpersonal relationships well, they can still hold a firm position even if they have a bad ability.

During wartime, any rational commander attaches great importance to the combat effectiveness of the grassroots, otherwise the cruel war can eliminate it.

Yuchi Yingzhe was able to escape from the control of the Tufan Kingdom in a series of wars and grow into one of the two giants in the four towns of Anxi, which itself represents the strength of his army.

At least, it is absolutely impossible to see a common stubborn disease in the army, such as eating empty wages and drinking soldiers.

Naturally, Yuchi Yingzhe, who focuses on reality, cannot equip a group of soldiers with low military merits and qualifications with expensive iron armor. Only real elites are qualified to wear armor.

Therefore, in Yuchi Yingzhe's team, the general combat power of soldiers can be easily distinguished from the armor they wear.

Those who stayed in the back were ordinary soldiers without iron armor, mainly from surrendered soldiers and local Han garrison troops. Although after a series of identification, the old and weak and the useless people who were scattered, their combat effectiveness was actually not as good as the first field team under Richard.

At most, it is similar to the second and third field teams.

Infantry of this level, the flanks were attacked by the elite cavalry of more than 10,000 border troops, and they had no resistance at all!

They were not the system soldiers under Richard's command who were fearless and fearless. Instead, these elite cavalry of the border army were fighting with no life. It seemed that the charge formation that died together defeated the resistance of most infantry soldiers in the Yuchi Yingzhe rear formation.

Under Yuchi Yingzhe's horrified gaze, the rear formation of the entire main force formation was defeated in just over ten minutes, and was quickly cut into two sections by the elite cavalry of the border army, and then further divided and encircled!

There was even a border elite cavalry composed of thousands of people pushing the back of the elite infantry fighting on the front line all the way, and inserted it hard, splashing out a large piece of dazzling blood...

Yuchi Yingzhe never expected that the double insurance of the cavalry and the Modao team he arranged on the flank were easily broken by Richard's cavalry...

It’s not that the soldiers under Yuchi Yingzhe were not fighting hard enough, but that the enemy’s strength was beyond imagination!

Using infantry against cavalry has already lost 10%, not to mention that cavalry has an absolute advantage in numbers!

The powerful cavalry of the border army, which is fearless, exerts the impact of the war horses to the greatest extent, just like a full-horsepower car that rushes into the dense crowd, cannot stop it at all...

"It's over, it's over..."

Yuchi Yingzhe smiled bitterly, took a deep breath, and ordered the military officer beside him with a ferocious expression: "Call all the cavalry and retreat!

All the infantry lined up on the ground and blocked the enemy firmly for me!"

Yuchi Yingzhe's order made many generals change their faces, but no one raised any objections.

No one is a military novice. Seeing the one-sided cavalry charge on the battlefield, he knew that defeat was a foregone conclusion.

The only way to break the deadlock at this time is to invest in counter-attack cavalry that is comparable to the enemy, or to invest in more elite heavy cavalry to drive out the enemy's light charge cavalry.

Yes, in the standards of the Tang army, the elite cavalry of the Ming Dynasty's border troops dressed in iron armor under Li Cha can only be regarded as the level of light charge cavalry, one level higher than the regular light cavalry.

Of course, this is the division of hand-to-hand cavalry. If it is a archer, it is another division.

Although the Tang Dynasty in another world had a lot of knowledge about melee cavalry, it paid more attention to flexibility and change, and could kill the enemy's archers at a long range. This is a tactical experience learned from the conquered nomadic peoples.

Moreover, because the Tang Dynasty in another world conquered all the nomadic tribes around, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was even more popular as the Tiankhan of all nomadic peoples, he could recruit a large group of elite nomadic archers to serve the empire.

In fact, most of the source of the Yass and Soldiers of the Western Regions were elite soldiers selected from the nomadic archers.

Naturally, the Rangers and Archers in the regular army of the Tang Dynasty were basically trained in the nomadic cavalry.

It was the large group of natural nomadic cavalry that made the Tang Dynasty in another world have cavalry legions that were not inferior to the infantry!

However, the Semi people in this area of ​​the Western Regions were very different from those of the Han people and grassland ethnic groups, and were rejected by the main Han people, so they were very unfriendly.

Therefore, horse-producing areas in the Western Regions have been restricted from large-scale training of Seme nomadic peoples, which is one of the reasons why the number of cavalry in the Western Regions is small.

In the past, the Seme people in the Western Regions were very weak, so naturally they did not need to maintain a large number of cavalry corps. There were scattered green-skinned tribes and Seme people tribes, which did not have any threats at all, which indirectly led to the central court of the Tang Dynasty's lack of attention to the military forces of the Western Regions.

As a result, as soon as the Tufan Kingdom became independent, it turned its attention to the Western Regions of soft persimmons...

Although Tufan Kingdom has brought out more than 500,000 young and strong men, it is actually not as powerful as An Lushan!
