404 Fierce Hedging

Of course, this winning rate was estimated as Richard thought, and Yue Fei didn't think so!

After all, the Yue family's military advantage lies there, and Yue Fei sent the main force of the Beiwei Army's elite cavalry just not wanting the Yue family army to suffer a lot in this battle.

Until now, Yue Fei did not feel that the Beiming had the ability to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty. The reason was very simple. The Beiming's troops were too thin...

Naturally, the Southern Song court far behind did not have the sense of crisis of destroying the country. In the eyes of the Southern Song court, the worst situation was that the land of Sichuan and Sichuan was only white.

The strategic depth and huge population base of the Southern Song Dynasty were their confidence in spending money with the Northern Ming Dynasty!

Even if they were defeated repeatedly, the Southern Song Dynasty would not be afraid of the more than 20,000 elite troops in the Northern Ming Dynasty.

What's more, the longer the front line is, the greater the logistical pressure of the Beiming. The Southern Song Dynasty court was not an idiot. Naturally, it was difficult to replenish ammunition in the Beiming. Otherwise, Yue Fei would not have sent the main elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army to try to cut off the Ming army's logistics.

Theoretically, as long as the Ming army's ammunition supply logistics line is cut off, the Yue family army can completely counterattack and annihilate the main force of the Ming army led by Richard!

By then, Beiming would be in a smooth journey!

Who said that the Ming Kingdom was so poor that it was so poor that it was a long time of military power, and the later Ottoman Expeditionary Force's siege of cities and land had already exhausted the Ming Kingdom's national strength. The reason why Richard can still fight now was just relying on the cheating of the golden finger.

As long as you lose in the last game, Richard's plug-in army will not be supplemented, which will cause the collapse effect of dominoes!

In contrast, the Southern Song Dynasty was supported by the rich people of the landlords and gentry class, and the rear was very stable. The Southern Song bureaucrats and landlords and gentry were happily joining forces to oppress and exploit the lower-class people, and naturally they hated the Richard regime of the Northern Ming Dynasty, which was about to cut off their foundation!

Even the stingy landlord Lao Cai had a very firm position in fighting against the Richard regime of the Northern Ming Dynasty. The only difference was how much money and effort it was.

This is also the reason why the Southern Song Dynasty's treasury was clearly exhausted in the confrontation with Green Skin and could still continue to form new troops.

The vast majority of military expenditures are actually paid by the rich people of the people!

Many armies are even adapted from local regiment training, and the landlords and squirees who are leading the army are military officers!

The martial arts atmosphere during the Tang Dynasty had not yet disappeared, and even scholarly families could use swords and guns.

In the Ming Dynasty, the people at the bottom were happy to divide the land, but they could only provide Richard with basic military rations. If they wanted to recruit soldiers, the court had to pay for it themselves.

Nowadays, even the local garrison militia regiments in Beiming need local governments to operate and lose money by themselves. How could Richard have the money to recruit and train the new army?

This is different from the Shazhou Army transformed by prisoners of war.

The weapons and equipment of the Shazhou Army were all captured, and veterans did not need to spend money and food to retrain. Richard only needed to be responsible for wartime subsidies and basic military rations.

It is equivalent to getting a ready-made cheap cannon fodder army, which is not on the same level as the cost of re-recruiting troops to train the army!

However, even for this cheap Shazhou Army, Richard could not last long. He had to rely on the Yue family's Sichuan defense line to continuously consume Shazhou Army's troops and reduce the pressure on military rations.

As for the pension...

Where does the pension come from when an army adapted from prisoners of war come into force?

This undoubtedly saved Richard a lot of money!

Because of this, Richard's southern expedition was very unreasonable in the eyes of the Southern Song court. Although Richard's Northern Ming regime was in decline, he still took the initiative to attack!

The most embarrassing thing is that the Southern Song army was actually beaten up!

In fact, Richard was so anxious to launch the battle to destroy Song. He knew very well that the development potential between the Ming and Song countries. The original basic foundation of the Ming Dynasty was the barren land of the East Asian continent.

After a series of wars and internal rebellions, coupled with the equal-field debt exemption policy, the economy and trade were underestimated, and the ability to create wealth was far inferior to that of the Southern Song Dynasty!

The Southern Song Dynasty is now empty because of the just-end Greenskin War, but the foundation is still there, and the legacy of the former Tang Dynasty has been annexed. Now the people want people and some people to ask for money...

As the people became rich, the Southern Song Dynasty court could recover slowly through generous taxes. Ten years later, the Northern Ming Dynasty might still be the same as the bird, but the Southern Song Dynasty might become more powerful and more fodder!

In addition, there is another more important reason. The Northern Ming army is a system soldier and can fight without training or armed forces. However, the Southern Song army needs training. How could Richard give the Southern Song Dynasty the opportunity to recuperate and train the army?

Therefore, Richard, who holds gold fingers, is the most advantageous!

To put it bluntly, it's all because of no money...

Because of the large number of people, the Chest-Packard Cavalry and the Beiwei Army elite cavalry listed several wave stormtroopers, which are also commonly used by cavalry.

Moreover, the cross-section of the front row is extremely wide, which allows more cavalry to enter the hand-to-hand combat state at the same time!

However, the charge formations of both sides are different. The breastplate cavalry is a standard wall-type charge. As elite cavalry in the comprehensive war system, wall-type charge is naturally the best!

On the other hand, the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army is still the traditional cavalry charge.

However, Fu Xuan had never seen a large cavalry wall-style charge, so he didn't notice anything except that he felt the cavalry array on the opposite side was closer.

"Draw your sword!"

Slowly...

The cavalrymen of the breastplate drew their sabers and raised their elite cavalry in front of their heads, pointing at the opposite side with guns.

The stance of the chest-plated cavalry holding the sabre is like a shortened version of the spear. In this posture, even if they do nothing, the blade can pierce the enemy under the inertia of the war horse!

At the same time, this posture can also allow the chest-plated cavalry to slash to the left and right quickly according to the combat conditions when approaching the enemy.

Two torrents collided with each other under the horsepower of high-speed impact.

In the moment of the impact, dozens or hundreds of breastplate cavalry were directly shot away by the cavalry guns that were hit by high speed. Even thick modern breastplate could not bring them any safety!

Under this impetus, even Richard's alloy steel plate automobile in his previous life could not stand it, let alone the breastplate cavalry?

However, the advantage of the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army was only at this moment. When both sides approached, the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army quickly discovered that they had to face at least two or three enemies at the same time!

The formation of enemy cavalry is so tight!

Looking down from above, the cross-section of the battlefield of the chest-plated cavalry was narrower, but it was like a sharp blade that cut the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army from the middle, and all the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army blocked in front were crushed!

The entire battlefield was like a large-scale car accident scene. The speed of the cavalry that collided with each other was involuntarily reduced, making the fight even more tragic. After the first wave rushed, the second wave smashed it into it again!

None of the elite cavalry of the Beiwei Army or the chest-plated cavalry fled, and the fierce battle was far beyond Fu Xuan's estimate!
