Chapter 1035 The Battle of Poland (2)
The Han Song Water Margin Volume 1035: The Battle of Poland "The Polishes are about twice the strength of our army, but the number of armored soldiers is too small, especially the heavy knights."
Beside Lu Yue, the veteran Yelu Dezhong with a frosty face said this. He looked at the Polish army opposite, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
The Lu Qi army had been so long that it had a clear understanding of the politics, society and military system of the Unit God World. What he called the "heavy knight" can be regarded as the Qi army's equipped iron cavalry. Although the texture of the human armor and vests was much inferior to that of the Qi army, we must also be clear about the advantages of the heavy knights in the Unit God World.
The latter has been practicing martial arts since childhood and is proficient in fighting immediately. In terms of only a single force, every Western heavy-armed knight is like a student of the Western Army generals of Zhao Song. Of course, his martial arts are stronger than the equipment cavalry of ordinary soldiers.
However, the Qi army's equipped cavalry warfare focuses more on discipline rather than single martial arts. Unless you can compare with the powerful generals like Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong.
Moreover, it was Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong who were so powerful that they were really useless when facing the Lu Qi army equipped with iron cavalry and advanced like a wall.
"There are many infantry soldiers, but there are few armored soldiers, and the quality of individual soldiers is even worse." Yelu Deba looked at the array opposite and said disdainfully.
The sun has not risen to the middle, and the Poles have only been in line for an hour, but looking at their infantry array, what has they become now?
Not only the obvious cannon fodder recruits in front, but also the armored infantry later, the array is also eye-catching.
In this way, this Polish army with a population of 40,000 was also eye-catching in Yelu Dezhong's eyes.
In this joint battle between the three countries, Lu Yu and Lu Yun provided Lu Yue with 8,500 troops, and the Wu Kingdom, who was fully mobilized, also exploded nearly 15,000 troops, not to mention the left-behind recruitment and transportation troops.
In this way, there were 23,400 soldiers alone, and a fraction of them were left in the back road. Now, the Three Kingdoms coalition forces outside Krakow are about 20,000.
Lu Yue and Yelu Dezhong have the same mentality, and do not take the Polish army twice as seriously as him in front of him.
So what if there are many Poles? It's just a mob. Although his subordinates only have 20,000 soldiers, most of them are wearing armor. Even the slave soldiers, servants and vassals are also wearing armor, chain mail, zippers, zippers, cotton armor, cloth armor, etc.
Henrik glanced at his elder brother Wadi Slaw, "Will the Chinese fight?"
If the coalition forces on the opposite side do not attack and sit and watch the Poles line up, it is equivalent to asking the Poles to take the initiative to launch an attack, which is a very unpleasant and unpleasant result.
"If you were the commander-in-chief on the other side, would you fight?" Vadislaw asked.
"Of course, of course I will face it. The Chinese have killed all the way to Krakow, and they are the winners on the battlefield. The winners will not refuse the challenge of the losers!" Henrik said without hesitation.
"Then I think they will fight, too." Wadislaw's voice was a little fluttering.
In any case, his losses were greatly increased in this war. All the things the Chinese did in the rear had already reached his ears.
At this time, in the church, Yelu Dezhong, Xiao Heda and others were listening to Lu Yue's orders. Just as Wadi Slaw said, Lu Yue chose to fight without hesitation!
"Why don't you wait for a few more times and find a good opportunity to attack? In another one or two hours, the enemy's troops will be exhausted and their morale will decline. Our army will take the opportunity to kill in. It will definitely be invincible and will be invincible. It is easy to break the enemy!"
Yelu Zonglei said in confusion. As for the quality of the Polish army, if they wait for another one or two hours, their array will be in chaos.
"Destroy the enemy's attack, Yu Zhengrui, and let them be defeated without words, which further demonstrates our army's reputation."
Lu Qi's reputation is already very big, but no matter how famous it is, it cannot ignore the power of distance. Moreover, they are vassals, in the eyes of the world of One God, they are vassals like sword-bearing nobles on the border. Although China is powerful, how much power is there for Lu Yue and the others at the moment?
During this time, Lu Yue had to teach the Poles, even the Hungarians, the Shenluo people, and the entire Europeans well, so that they could all understand that the three kingdoms of Wu Luomu were not easy to mess with.
A shrill horn broke through the world. Wadislaw, who had already dismounted and rested, and Henrik and others quickly got up and turned on their backs, looking in the direction where the sound came.
I saw a huge Wu-shaped flag flying in the wind in the Great Alliance Village not far away. Around the flag were flags of various colors. In the unfolding coalition front, a large flag was fluttering, and the yellow flags and black characters were shining with each other, and a fearsome solemnity and majesty were revealed from afar.
The Chinese are here!
Seeing this scene, Wadislaw and other Polish nobles breathed a little relieved, but their hearts were raised to their throats again. A key battle that could determine the direction of Poland and even Europe for hundreds of years will soon begin! If the battle ends with their crushing defeat..., then the Chinese will firmly stand firm in the Land of Ross and build a solid bridgehead on the edge of the world of Universal God. Perhaps when the Chinese come again in the future, the entire Pod Plain and even the French Plain will fall!
When God's glory is obscured by the Chinese, the entire Europa will enter an unimaginable dark age...
The trumpet sounded, and the Poles began to reorganize the army. After the priest finished his prayers, Vadislaw said to the nobles around him: "Our long-range projection power is obviously not as good as that of the Chinese, so we must quickly assault with the power of the cavalry to resolve the battle in close combat with the Chinese. It is better, the longer the time is, the greater the casualties will be."
The left bank of the Vavel River is a wide and flat field, and the whole of Poland is such a terrain. It is very suitable for cavalry to gallop!
The Poles' front army simply used crossbowmen to protect a large number of signs. These people were all peasants, who had not undergone rigorous training, nor had they experienced wars one by one, and could easily become confused by casualties and intimidation from enemy forces.
The Polish light cavalry on both wings first launched a charge, opening the prelude to the war.
Vadislaw's plan was to use a large number of light cavalry to entangle the enemy's cavalry units and then put into the elite cavalry main force. The combat effectiveness of the Chinese should not be underestimated. It is difficult to defeat the enemy cleanly and neatly. He did not need to defeat the enemy so easily. Vadislaw's real killer weapon is his infantry, a huge number of infantry.
