    "Although infantry on horseback seem to be able to perform a series of movements on horseback, they can still only be called infantry. What they mount on horseback only enhances their mobility, not their combat effectiveness." Ma Chao said helplessly, "There are all kinds of idiots in the world.  90% of them are like this.¡±

    Sun Ce looked at Ma Chao with a puzzled expression. What does this mean?

    "The cost of training and forming the cavalry is very high, so the cavalry has very high requirements for the quality of its soldiers. Cavalry is not just those who can do a few tricks on horseback." Ma Chao said helplessly, "Currently, most cavalry can actually only say  They are mounted infantry, and they have no way of engaging in high-intensity combat."

    Sun Ce still looked confused, and Ma Chao didn't know how to explain it. Finally, he said angrily, "You remember that there is a huge gap in combat effectiveness between real cavalry and mounted infantry. The two sides not only have the quality of their soldiers, but also their will.  Gap in belief.¡±

    "You should have said so earlier. To put it bluntly, isn't there a gap between cavalry at the cavalry level and cavalry at the elite level?" Sun Ce looked at Ma Chao speechlessly.

    "You're right," Ma Chao choked and said angrily, "So if you want elite-level cavalry, I only have more than two thousand here. If you want miscellaneous soldiers, it's easy, just grab any of them  Three to five thousand horses, and then I will find three to five thousand men among the Qiang people and mount them."

    At this moment, Sun Ce felt that he was a little confused. How could this kind of thing that was just put together casually have combat effectiveness?

    "Don't look at me either. There are only so many elite cavalry in the world. My two thousand elite cavalry are still Qiang people who have finally awakened after a series of fights." Ma Chao understood when he saw Sun Ce's expression.  .

    "It turns out it can be trained. You should have told me earlier." Sun Ce was instantly more satisfied after hearing this.

    "The vast majority of cavalry are just infantry on horseback throughout their lives, and only a few can become elite cavalry. The remaining elite cavalry in the world today are probably the two thousand I have, Zhang Xiu's three thousand, Cao Gong's seven thousand, and Lu Bu  Of the four thousand left after the ascension, the Yuan family may have another three thousand, Liu Taiwei has twenty thousand Xiliang cavalry, and more than ten thousand other elite cavalry." Ma Chao counted on his fingers and began to calculate for Sun Ce.

    "Look, there are almost 50,000 elite cavalry." Ma Chao pinched his fingers and said to Sun Ce.

    "Uh, why are there so many Xiliang cavalry?" Sun Ce asked curiously after hearing Ma Chao's calculations.

    "There is no way, Dong Zhuo has a powerful army that can dominate the world." Ma Chao said with a sentimental face. Although Dong Zhuo died, Ma Chao still admired this powerful man who was born in Xiliang, even though he had done many abominable things.

    "Well, indeed." Sun Ce thought for a while and admitted this. How strong Dong Zhuo was back then was only revealed to the public after Dong Zhuo's death.

    Dong Zhuo's failure was not due to lack of strength. On the contrary, his remaining strength was still enough to defeat most of the princes in the Central Plains after his death. Dong Zhuo's defeat was due to his own heart.

    "These cavalry are truly elite cavalry. The general mounted infantry fights with these cavalry. Just like Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yi Cong only has three thousand core members, but during the Battle of Jieqiao, more than ten thousand white horses were pulled out. In essence,  In other words, those are just mounted infantry that cooperate with the core elite cavalry." Ma Chao gave an example.

    "Yeah, I can understand. Just like infantry fighting, elites lead ordinary soldiers to fight in the past. After the elites open up the situation, the morale of the ordinary soldiers is greatly improved, and they can also show amazing combat effectiveness." Sun Ce is a knowledgeable soldier after all.  People will soon understand.

    "That's what I mean." Ma Chao nodded and said, "And if there is no elite leader and only miscellaneous soldiers fight independently, the miscellaneous soldiers can indeed become elites after fighting, but it is more likely"

    Sun Ce already understood what Ma Chao meant. There were no elites, only ordinary soldiers, and they could be completely defeated by an accident.

    "So you understand." Ma Chao said no more.

    "In this case, if I lead cavalry at the level of miscellaneous soldiers, I will inevitably lead infantry. But if I lead infantry, how can I hunt down the barbarians?" Sun Ce looked at Ma Chao speechlessly and said.

    "If you don't bring infantry, you will be defeated at once because the soldiers are not elite enough and there is no cooperation." Ma Chao rolled his eyes and said.

    "The cavalry is really troublesome!" Sun Ce said with a headache, "The navy is easier to deal with. By the way, don't you have two thousand fine cavalry? Why don't you just go north with me?"

    "Although I really want to, if Cao Sikong doesn't agree, I have to stay in Chang'an." Ma Chao sighed and said. To be honest, he was also very interested in fighting the Huns, whether as a general of the Han Dynasty or as a general of the Han Dynasty.  King Qiang, he was even interested in fighting the Xiongnu.

    "Just ask?Whether you want to go or not, I will tell you how. Although I am not Cao Mengde, as a monarch, he must have the same tolerance as me.  "Sun Ce said proudly, and the momentum of the princes was clearly displayed.

    "You are a scumbag, Cao Sikong is not!" Ma Chao said reflexively, and then as if he was intimidated by Sun Ce's momentum, he paused for a while and then said, "Say."

    "Just leave a letter and lead the troops north. Anyway, we don't need to prepare food and grass. After leaving the customs, the barbarians can kill, burn and loot, and so can we. This kind of thing is simple." Sun Ce said inhumanely, leaving the words behind  Sun Ce has already done this before just sending a letter away.

    "What kind of magnanimity do you have!" Ma Chao exploded.

    "You idiot, you are so scared! As long as you do well in the north, what can Cao Cao do to you? In the battle between Han and Hungary, all the people are soldiers, I am proud to go to war, how can Cao Cao stop me?" Sun Ce rolled his eyes and said  , even Sun Ce knew what he should do to fight the Xiongnu.

    "Well, that's true, but if we lead the troops away like this, wouldn't it be too disrespectful!" After all, Ma Chao doesn't have the confidence of Sun Ce, and he knows the confidence of Cao Cao in Chang'an, but as soon as he said these words,  Ma Chao envied Sun Ce even more.

    "Are you afraid?" Sun Ce asked back, and then Sun Ce slowly stood up and looked at Ma Chao, "We are waiting for the Han people to lead their own troops and horses, and bring their own dry food to the north to attack the Xiongnu. Is there anything wrong?"

    Then Sun Ce waved his cloak and said, "If Cao Cao dares to say that this matter is wrong, then you can come south and follow me, Sun Ce. Sun Ce is based in the south of the Yangtze River and is willing to take extraordinary risks and travel thousands of miles north to defeat the Hu. If Cao Cao dares to say  If there¡¯s a typo, then I¡¯ll fight for my fortune and make him swallow the word!¡±

    Sun Ce's momentum at this moment directly overwhelmed the five people present. Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and others were all looking at Ma Chao.  (To be continued.)
