Chapter 526

    As the inheritor of the Mongolian Empire, the cavalry tactics of Kalmyk Khanate are classic Mongolian. There are two main tactics. One is the tactics of cooperation between heavy cavalry and light cavalry demonstrated by the thousand people team just now, and the other is the classic "Mangu evil" tactics.


    The first tactic, as Chechen has just said, his Kalmyk cavalry charged "not as neat as them".


    As a nomadic Khanate in Taiji, ah Yuqi certainly understands the importance of formation. The denser the formation of an assault cavalry, the better they have an advantage over the loose cavalry and infantry. In the battle, those knights who fight alone will have to face three or four weapons at the same time. Even if you have good Sabre skills and superb riding skills, you can only be beaten to death one after another in the face of the siege, and even it is difficult to cause casualties of the wall mounted cavalry.


    As for the Mangu evil tactics, ah Yuqi knows better that the essence of the Mangu evil tactics handed down from generation to generation in the Khanate is that the cavalry are skilled in riding and can break away with one blow. In the face of the cavalry charging in a neat and uniform way, the cavalry of the Khanate can''t escape at all - the enemy is too dense to escape unless they escape.


    Moreover, if the Kalmyk cavalry used the traditional Mangu tactics to deal with the wall cavalry who charged head-on from the beginning, it would require very good riding skills and reduced horse speed to shoot arrows back on the horse. Therefore, the use of Bangkok and his own cavalry in the duel will not be possible to start with their butts facing the enemy at the very beginning. They need to turn the horse''s head and keep the distance from the enemy cavalry after the enemy is charged. This can not be too far, because the range of the bow is limited, and the effective range is only about 20 meters.


    But this distance is not easy for cavalry facing high-speed charge. Because the basic speed of the opponent''s war horse must be slightly higher than that of your war horse. Once you can''t master the distance a little, it''s the fate of selling your back to the enemy.


    Thinking about it, ah Yuqi found that his cavalry had no advantage. Ah Yuqi shuddered at the thought that the cavalry of the Khanate would face such an enemy in the future.


    When naum Vasiliev boasted to ah Yuqi how great the artillery of Czar Russia was and how powerful it was, ah Yuqi could comfort himself with "virtue rather than risk" and "it was people who used weapons", but when even people were inferior, ah Yuqi could not give reasons to comfort himself.


    Suddenly, ah Yuqi held Chechen''s hand. This sudden move startled Cherchen.


    "Lord aleval, you''ve seen cavalry that can charge neatly, so you must know how they train?"


    "Er, Taiji. I''m just a businessman. Although I''ve seen them, I really don''t know how they trained them." Chechen replied carefully.


    Ah Yuqi heard Chechen say so, but he didn''t let go. He continued excitedly, "what about their officers? Those winged cavalry officers and Swedish cavalry officers must know how to train. You can hire some for me, no matter how much it costs."


    Chechen didn''t expect that ah Yuqi had such a mind. But he thought that even if ah Yuqi let his Kalmyk cavalry learn to use the wall charge of wing cavalry, it could not change anything. Because wall cavalry vs. wall cavalry, the battle will only be a war of attrition until one side can''t bear the loss and collapses. Since the population of any nomadic nation is not as good as that of a settled country, it is a dream to defeat a settled country in the war of consumption. However, Chechen didn''t dare to tell ah Yuqi, because this involves the strategic level, and it''s not what businessmen can say.


    Seeing that Chechen doesn''t speak, ah Yuqi mistakenly thinks that Chechen is unwilling. He turned to inducement and said, "aleval, I won''t treat you badly if you do this for me. I now canonize you as the centurion of the Khanate. You go to your motherland and hire the best cavalry officers for me. Just take the money you want."


    Of course, Chechen can''t recruit any cavalry officers for ah Yuqi. But ah Yuqi just gave him a chance to get out. Chechen said to ah Yuqi with gratitude: "thank you, Taiji."


    Seeing that Chechen accepted, ah Yuqi also seemed very happy. He patted Cherchen on the shoulder and encouraged him: "alvar, serve me well. You will know how generous I am."


    Chechen was regarded as the most distinguished guest by ah Yuqi. He and Chechen walked down the platform side by side. When he spoke to Chechen, ah Yuqi''s smile was so warm as the spring breeze.


    Seeing ah Yuqi''s posture like this, Ingrid and Fatima, who are waiting for Chechen under the high platform, are greatly surprised. They don''t know what fascination Chechen has given to the audience.


    "I didn''t give him any ecstasy, but promised to hire cavalry officers and buy muskets for him."


    When sorting out his belongings and preparing to leave ah Yuqi''s camp, Chechen said this to Ingrid and Fatima, and told the second daughter his dialogue with ah Yuqi about cavalry on the high platform.


    "Then, commander, are you really going to hire officers and buy muskets for ah Yuqi?" Ingrid asked uncertainly.


    "How could it be!" Chechen said with a smile, "I''m an enemy with the Taiji of Kalmyk. When I get back to Yasu fort, I''m expected to go to war with him soon."


    As soon as Cherchen''s voice fell, a soldier of the mercenary regiment came over.


    He said to Chechen, "Captain, a Lama named Gru wants to see you."


    Che Chen and her second daughter looked back. I saw the Gelu Lama standing not far behind them. Gru carried a leather bag in his hand, followed by two women.


    From prijit, Cherchen already knows the important position of Gelu, a religious figure, in Kalmyk and around ah Yuqi. When he sees Gelu coming to find himself, Cherchen knows that he must be sent by ah Yuqi.


    Chechen hurried to meet him.


    "Guru, what can I do for you?" Chechen learned the movements taught by prijit, put his hands together, and then the above guru called huglu road.


    Gelu Lama folded his hands and saluted. He smiled and handed the leather bag to Chechen and said, "aleval Baihu, this is the gold that Taiji asked me to give you. He hopes you can hire talented officers and buy the best muskets for the Khanate."


    A bag of gold!


    Cherchen took the leather bag. The leather bag was very heavy. Chechen roughly estimated that it was at least 5kg. Entrusted such a large sum of money to the people who had only seen it for a few days, Chechen sighed again at ah Yuqi''s generosity and trust in himself.


    "If he and I were not enemies but friends, we would be worthy of deep friendship," Chechen thought.


    But immediately, Chechen''s impression of ah Yuqi returned to the previous level. Because after giving the gold to himself, the Gelu Lama pushed out the two women behind him.


    Gelu Lama said with a smile, "these two women are the handmaids of Mrs. Taiji. Taiji is afraid that you will be lonely all the way, so he specially asked them from his wife to accompany you."


    Obviously, the two maidens are not only simple to "accompany" themselves, but also have the purpose of monitoring themselves.


    For these two spies, Cherchen accepted them happily. After all, Chechen had a plan. When he got to a safe place, he would return the two women and the bag of gold.


    "Well, I wish all the families of aleval a pleasant journey."


    Seeing that Che Chen readily accepted it, Gelu Lama put his hands together again and said with a smile.
