148 Main Battle

It is precisely because the Tubo people are powerless and dare not interfere in the expansion of the two warlords that Yuchi Yingzhe and Long Letian can let go of their hands to divide their spheres of influence from north to south and accept the legacy after the war in the Western Regions!

As for Richard, in the eyes of the two, they were just one of the lucky warlords. As long as they defeat Richard's main force, they could intimidate all the cities he controlled. At that time, the cities under Richard's control will descend in sight!

Richard's rise was too short, and even the cabinet officials he appointed himself could not be buried with Richard. Once Richard's army was defeated and fell into decline, it is naturally a routine operation for various cities to open the door to welcome surrender after the enemy's arrival.

Since they will surrender because of Richard's powerful surrender, why wouldn't they open the city gates with Richard's even more powerful forces?

The powerful Han gentry class of local Han people only had a good impression of Richard's serf policy. As for fighting for Richard's desperate situation, he was far from reaching that qualification!

Therefore, for Richard, he must defeat Yuchi Yingzhe, otherwise what he is greeted will be defeated like a mountain, which will trigger a series of political earthquakes!

Once Richard is defeated and the main force is destroyed, even if Richard is still alive, betrayal and mutiny will become the mainstream of the area he ruled!

After Yuchi Yingzhe's vanguard was defeated, he realized that Richard's army was far from comparable to ordinary county soldiers and government soldiers. At the same time, he also learned through the defeated soldiers of the vanguard that the armored army sent by Richard could reach nearly 30%!

Although this armored ratio is not as good as the regular field troops of the Tang Dynasty, it is also very rare in the Western Regions where the battles are repeated.

After all, armor is very easy to be damaged and damaged in battle, and the iron smelting technology in the Western Regions is not developed. For an emerging force, it is not easy to get a four-digit iron armored soldier.

After all, in Yuchi Yingzhe's information, Richard did not receive the support of a large number of local gentry classes, so it was naturally impossible to obtain the iron armor that was fundamental to the local gentry classes.

Since Richard is not weak, Yuchi Yingzhe naturally has to put in all his strength.

Yuchi Yingzhe's army completely inherited the combat formation of the Tang army. The two wings were a large number of wandering cavalry, all of which were similar to those of tooth soldiers, and all were equipped with bows and horses.

Compared with the western region of the Western Regions where cavalry is scarce, the production of war horses in the four Anxi towns is still very high. Yanqi Military Town is a place where war horses are abundant and is also the main source of cavalry horses used in the Western Regions.

Because of this, the regular army of the Tang Dynasty in the four towns of Anxi can maintain a powerful cavalry unit.

Under Yuchi Yingzhe, there were more than 2,000 cavalry teams under his command, not including his fangs, divided into two groups on both sides of the main force formation.

Most of these cavalry units were formed by Yuchi Yingzhe in the battle, so the equipment was very chaotic, but most of them were skilled in bows and horses, and it was impossible for ordinary people to enter the cavalry team.

As for Yuchi Yingzhe's tooth soldiers, the scouts and cavalry who had been together with Richard, they stayed around the Central Army's commander flag and acted as Yuchi Yingzhe's last reserve force.

If he has the advantage on the battlefield, this tooth soldier can play a final role. If the battlefield falls into a defeat, this tooth soldier will be the elite guarding Yuchi Yingzhe who escapes from the battlefield and protects him back to the rear to make a comeback.

Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, this tooth soldier will not rush into the front line to fight and consume it except for being used as scouts and scouts.

Apart from the cavalry on both sides, Yuchi Yingzhe Central is a tight infantry formation.

According to the customs of the Tang army, the front row was full of iron armored heavy infantry, holding a large shield in his hand and equipped with cold weapons such as swords and other cold weapons. The back was full of spearmen. The front row of square spearmen was wearing iron armor, and only ordinary leather armor was worn behind.

Because the four towns in Anxi fought one after another, the regular Tang Dynasty field troops, which were originally full of leather armor, suffered huge losses. Therefore, not all under Yuchi Yingzhe's subordinates were included in the Tang Dynasty field troops, many of whom were ordinary Han local garrison troops promoted through military merits during the war.

These people also undergo systematic military training, and frequent combat has allowed them to master skillful killing skills, but the equipment is not difficult to replenish.

After all, the damage to local production during the war was very serious, and the damage rate of iron armor was high and the construction period was long. Even Yuchi Yingzhe could not equip all his soldiers with iron armor.

Only the Tang Dynasty at its peak can do this!

However, because Yuchi Yingzhe belongs to the victorious side and as one of the four Anxi towns, his army can reach more than half of the armor-wrapped rate!

Behind the Tang army's spearmen were archers wearing standard leather armor.

However, in the military formation, many spearmen and sword players who are hand-to-hand combat soldiers also carry a set of strong bows, which is why Yuchi Yingzhe did not let the archers stand in the front row!

The heavy infantry and spearmen in the front row are also powerful archers!

This is the foundation of the Tang army. Even if they experience war and suffer great losses, they can gather a group of soldiers who are good at using bows and arrows!

Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, even officers and soldiers of the local garrison troops had to receive crossbow training in theory. The powerful Tang army has been committed to building an all-round army!

Because of this, the Tang army always defeated and suppressed the Semu Renmin University uprisings in the Western Regions with fewer attacks.

"The Tang army's foundation is indeed very strong. This army has been reorganized by Yuchi Yingzhe for less than a month, and it can actually achieve this kind of military literacy."

Richard looked at the neat formation and slowly stepped forward, and sighed in his heart.

In Richard's eyes, Yuchi Yingzhe's main force is actually not much different from the regular Tang Dynasty field army he had encountered. At most, the armor rate could not reach 100%.

Both morale and formation efficiency are enough to match the regular army of the Tang Dynasty!

Only frequent battles can create such an army!

Richard knew that in this world, the regular army of the Tang Dynasty field war was enough to be called the peak, and a large number of warriors would be involved in the more elite army.

However, in the army of Yuchi Yingzhe, many intermediate officers are also warriors. As an existence beyond ordinary people, warriors naturally cannot avoid war. Any ruler likes to recruit warriors to serve themselves.

Therefore, during the rebellion of the four towns in Anxi, the casualties of warriors remained high, and the strong military system of the Tang Dynasty government collapsed completely...

Therefore, as the winner, Yuchi Yingzhe's army has absorbed many warriors as middle and low-level officers, including many powerful men in the muscles and bones realm!

Richard looked at the approaching enemy infantry front and ordered lightly: "Beat the drum and march!"
