Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Then Zhang Xiu told the two men about the situation of the battle, and Fan Chou took a breath of air. At this time, the city relied most on the cavalry. On the battlefield, the cavalry had extremely strong maneuverability, whether it was to detect intelligence or intercept

If the enemy's food route is used properly, two thousand cavalry are enough to defeat an army of tens of thousands. From the beginning of the war, the two of them did not think about defending Gaoling City, but considered how to use the cavalry to drag the Bingzhou army on the battlefield.

There is no doubt about the combat capability of the Xiliang cavalry. However, judging from the battle with the Bingzhou Army, the Xiliang Army's cavalry still has many shortcomings.

The vanguard army is the most powerful entity in an army. The Sun Archer clearly illustrates this point. However, the vanguard army is also the epitome of an army's combat effectiveness.

"In General Zhang's opinion, what should we do?" Fan Chou turned his attention to Zhang Ji. Although the two had many conflicts, Fan Chou was still able to distinguish the situation clearly when the Bingzhou Army was facing the situation.

Zhang Jidao: "Ask for help from Chang'an, but our army cannot stick to Gaoling like this, otherwise it is very likely to be defeated by the Bingzhou Army. The Art of War says, "Surround the city ten times. Although there are eight thousand troops in the city, the Bingzhou Army also has six."

There are tens of thousands of people, and there are sharp weapons such as thunder chariots and bed crossbows to help." As a veteran on the battlefield, Zhang Ji still understands these principles. The Bingzhou Army's siege is completely different from the sieges he has experienced before. If he insists on defending, he will only

Can lead to failure more quickly.

"Based on the general's opinion, is it possible that he wants to take the initiative to fight?" Fan Chou asked in surprise.

Zhang Ji nodded, "The Bingzhou Army has a large number of people, and the consumption of food and baggage is extremely high. If the cavalry in the city can be used properly and be more careful on the battlefield, it will definitely cause trouble to the Bingzhou Army."

Zhang Xiu said: "What my uncle said is exactly what he said."

On the battlefield, if you want to gain the initiative, you must have the power to contain the enemy. If the Bingzhou army is allowed to surround the city, it will be the real danger. Once the Bingzhou army can be contained on the battlefield, the defenders will

You will have more say, and it will be more convenient whether it is to obtain intelligence on the battlefield or to ask for help from other parties. When the enemy attacks the city, you will also need to be alert to this army.

Fan Chou saw that Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu had reached a consensus, and Zhang Ji had also made a detailed analysis of the situation in the city, so he could not help but listen.

"General Zhang, there are only a thousand cavalry in the city who can fight at full strength. If you use a thousand cavalry to harass the Bingzhou Army on the battlefield, if you are not careful, you will be destroyed." Fan Chou said.

"General Fan's concerns are not unreasonable, but the situation in the city means that we can no longer hesitate to harass the Bingzhou Army on the battlefield. If the number of cavalry is too large, the traces will be leaked. If it is operated properly, a thousand people will be enough."

Zhang Ji made up his mind.

Late at night the next day, Zhang Xiu took advantage of the darkness and led a thousand cavalrymen to disappear outside the city. It was unknown whether glory or failure awaited him.

Compared with the worries of Zhang Ji and Fan Chou in the city, the Bingzhou army's morale was high after the Xiliang army's late night raid.

Huang Zhong even pushed the credit for this achievement to Ju Shou, and the generals in the army also looked at Ju Shou very differently.

The counselors most admired by the generals in the Bingzhou Army were Jia Xu and Guo Jia. In fact, many generals had doubts about Jushou being appointed as a military advisor in the Pioneer Army. After all, Jushou was a defeated general, and this defeated general was too courageous.

He caused the Marquis of Jin to lose face many times.

Jushou cupped his hands and said, "The victory in this battle is the result of the soldiers putting their lives into practice."

The military generals saw Jushu's humility and looked at Jushu with more kindness. Although the military generals admired the literati, most of the generals still rejected them, because when the literati treated military generals, they often treated them differently because of their status.

Contempt makes military generals feel inferior when facing literati. If literati behave respectfully, they will respect them more. If literati behave arrogantly, they will reject them from their hearts.

"During the battle, General Taishi Ci was extremely brave. He led the cavalry and beat the rebel cavalry from the side." Huang Zhong said, he was very satisfied with Taishi Ci's performance during the battle. From the information he received, it can be seen that Taishi Ci's martial arts skills were extremely high.

It was so powerful that he could break into the Xiliang army with just two halberds and cause chaos to the Xiliang army. Otherwise, even if Huang Zhong chased the Xiliang army from the rear, it would be difficult for the Xiliang army to lose so many cavalry.

Taishi Ci's face turned slightly red. This was the first time he was praised in front of everyone, "I just have some bravery. What really determines the outcome is Mr. Jushou's strategizing."

Huang Zhongdao: "Although our army has won this time, we cannot take these rebels lightly. The soldiers and horses under Gaoling's guards Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are all the elite soldiers under Dong Zhuo's command. The combat effectiveness of these cavalry must be higher than those of you."

I also understand that Dong Zhuo relied on these cavalry to win many battles."

The generals in the army nodded after hearing the words. At that time, the Xiliang Army dominated the world and blocked the soldiers and horses of the eighteen princes. It was a great time. Dong Zhuo's behavior was very domineering, but the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Army was incomparable.

underestimate.

Five days later, Lu Bu led his army to Gaoling. After arranging the soldiers to set up camp, Lu Bu led his army in a majestic circle outside the city.

Although the defenders in the city knew the news that the Bingzhou Army was coming, and with the encouragement of the generals, they gradually let go of their fear, but when they saw the densely packed enemy troops, something called fear inevitably grew in their hearts.

The number of cavalry accompanying Lu Bu this time reached 10,000. Except for the flying cavalry and the Lieyang bow cavalry, the rest of the cavalry were all cavalry equipped by various troops. In the Bingzhou army, even the infantry team

They will be equipped with cavalry so that they can get information on the battlefield faster so that the army will not be unaware of the encirclement.

There is a big gap between these cavalry in terms of combat capabilities compared with the flying cavalry and the Lieyang Archers. They are also carefully selected from the soldiers of various ministries. The outstanding ones among them are likely to enter the flying cavalry or the Lieyang Archers in the future.

Yang Gongqi, such a large number of cavalry, is rare to see in the armies of other princes.

A general saw the legs of the soldiers beside him trembling, and shouted: "With the city here, no matter how many enemy troops there are, what can we do? Keep your eyes wide open and stare at the enemy troops outside the city."

Upon hearing this, the soldier clenched his spear with both hands, his trembling eased a lot, but there was still fear in his eyes.

After the 50,000-strong army walked around the city, they returned to the camp. However, the power left by the Bingzhou Army remained in the city for a long time.

Fan Chou and Zhang Ji also looked at each other. From the Bingzhou Army, they felt that they were iron-blooded and elite. If they encountered the same number of Bingzhou Army in the wild, there would be no reason to survive. They couldn't help but feel sorry for Zhang who was wandering on the battlefield.

Worry.
