Chapter Forty-Eight: The Coming Generals Became Names
When receiving the letter from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei asking for help, Yanbei did not rush to the west to send a large army, but ordered Bao Xin Cao Cao to quickly support Guan Zhang. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
He had to go around to Lu Bu's flank, so many soldiers and horses could not all be pressed on the battlefield, and protruding from the flank had a better chance of leaving Lu Bu.
Yan Bei has great confidence in the generals under his command, and he believes that even if Lu Bu is really as brave as others say, he may not be an opponent under the combined efforts of his brothers, what he needs...... It is to capture or kill this person, not just to defeat him.
There is such a person who leads the cavalry outside, and it is really unsettling!
When Yanbei led his troops to the west for thirty miles, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were in a fierce collision with Lu Bu's soldiers and horses.
Lu Bu's tactics...... What the hell is this!
Zhang Feiyang's spear and the charging Bingzhou cavalry crossed the wrong horse, the spear passed through Tu Gehu's chest and overturned it under the horse, followed by several horsemen running towards him back and forth, flashing the sachet that slashed, just had a gap to stab out the spear, and several horses rushed again.
It's like endless.
Lu Bu is not only a reckless man who relies on the handsome and brave warriors to fight the enemy, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who don't have much experience in battle formations, are more like a reckless man when he fights. Lu Bu's tactics were simple and effective tactics obtained in several times by fighting more with less and riding on horseback.
Using the generals as the blades, find the enemy's main commander and charge his men from all sides with three or more small cavalry teams. In the process, a detachment of cavalry was used to attack it one after another, so that the enemy commander could not rescue his men. The cavalry that had charged earlier quickly passed through the enemy lines, cutting back and forth...... This is the first part of the tactics, the enemy formation is divided into several small pieces, so that the enemy can not take care of the head and tail, the whole formation is divided into several small battlefields, the cavalry on each small battlefield is always moving, so that although they are the side with fewer people under the competition of forces in the large battlefield, they can still form a force squeeze advantage with cavalry in each small battlefield.
Only by achieving this step can we serve the second part of the tactics of warfare.
Where had Zhang Fei seen such a tactic, and he had never encountered such a tricky enemy. To tell the truth, he followed Liu Bei around most of the northeast of the empire, and his footprints were all over the two states of Youji, but he didn't even see much of the cavalry under his subordinates, and the most powerful cavalry among the opponents he fought was only in the northern part of Yan as a second-rate army of Wuhuan cavalry, and Lu Bu was an excellent cavalry general, even if he was blind.
He couldn't find a way to crack it at all, let alone crack it, and now Zhang Fei hadn't figured out the reason why Lu Bu used troops like this. There was only more and more anger in his mind, and these Bingzhou cavalry who rushed over one after another to send them to death were so annoying!
Although Zhang Fei is brave, even if it is these cavalry of the state, no one can survive the second wrong horse with him. But what's the use of that? From the beginning of the battle to the present, Zhang Fei has only killed more than a dozen and state riders in his hands.
He couldn't see the situation, and Guan Yu, who didn't rush forward in a hurry on the other side and paid attention to stabilizing the situation, could see it. Although he didn't know how Lu Bu's soldiers and horses did this, Guan Yu could clearly see that the people on the battlefield were all their subordinate foot soldiers, and those Bingzhou cavalry were cutting the battlefield under the leadership of their respective generals, not to mention their two other Simas, and the Qu Changtun generals below were the same, either they were stabbed and killed by the Bingzhou cavalry generals, or they were separated from their own soldiers.
The only low-ranking officer who can maintain command over his subordinates is the rank of the chief of the army, and even the captain may not be able to control his subordinate soldiers in the cavalry that runs and charges non-stop.
And so on...... They're finished.
In fact, in a conventional sense, they are finished, the command of the main general and his subordinates has been destroyed, Shiwu is fighting separately, and more people will die every minute and second if the battle drags on, and there is no point in continuing such a battle. If it was another general, in a panic, he would either abandon his soldiers and rush to death like a reckless man, or abandon his tune and run away.
But Guan Yu is different, he is under Liu Xuande and has fought countless defeats. Tracing back to his experience of defeat, it can be traced back to the period of the Yellow Turban as a volunteer! How many years ago was that? From then on, they were more defeated than victorious, fighting a battle and recruiting soldiers, and at their worst only a few brothers fled side by side.
They have all experienced the worst situation, and now compared to before, it seems that it is not only a way to escape from defeat.
But Guan Yu is different, maybe most of those who have failed enough will be more tenacious, Guan Yu feels that this battle may be able to save a little more.
The sword fell, a horse belonging to the galloping Southern Hun cavalry head rose to the wind, Guan Yu galloped the horse and shouted to the surrounding soldiers to form a formation by themselves, and then galloped towards the enemy cavalry who galloped back and forth in the battle formation.
He counted six cavalry generals with distinct armor and superior bravery, and it was these six men who led the cavalry team to divide their battle formation of more than 2,000 people.
As long as these six people are cut off one by one, their cavalry team will also lose their command, right?
Guan Yu has no means to restore the command of his subordinates, as the Sima of the other department, he does not have the power to carry the golden drum, and the soldiers and horses under his command are all newly recruited and forcibly recruited in Xingyang and other places last winter, and the four military marquis of the two other departments are all mediocre people with little talent, even if they are alive at this time, they are too busy to take care of themselves, and they have no ability to maintain command at all.
Since it is impossible to restore your own command, destroy the enemy's command...... It's always okay, right?
Hao Meng carried a spear through the formation, and did not deliberately slaughter the enemy foot soldiers who fled after losing command, his purpose was only to pick out those enemies in the chaos who ignored the collapse of morale and still fought on their own.
Of course, there are unlucky ghosts who accidentally stand in the way of his horse, and he doesn't mind sending him to his ancestors with a spear.
As for the slaughter of the enemy infantry who were scattered and fleeing on both sides, the Tugohu cavalry who followed closely behind him were glad to use their sharp sabers to do the work for him. After all, it's much easier to kill an enemy with a saber than a spear, isn't it?
This battle was extremely boring. Hao Meng complained in his heart, swung his spear and hit a foot soldier who stopped his mount, and led the cavalry through the battle formation as if he were strolling leisurely...... It is clearly written in the war plan that the infantry should stay in a dangerous place, and the cavalry should be displayed in a flat place. The enemy commander came in reverse like a fool, put the two thousand or so foot soldiers on the ground, and thought with the saddle under his buttocks Hao Meng knew what the enemy commander was thinking at that time.
What else can it be, the vision is broad!
The field of vision is broadened, but no matter how wide it is, didn't they find that the more than 1,000 cavalry of their merger state touched the front, and in the blink of an eye, more than 2,000 people were flattened by their merger cavalry, rushing left and right in the formation for four or five times.
The subordinates of the coalition army of the Kwantung princes must all be of such a good quality...... Hey, the general can clean them all up with 5,000 soldiers and horses alone!
On the chaotic battlefield, Hao Meng had so many things in his head, and he could imagine how easy this battle was for the battle-hardened Bingzhou Iron Cavalry. Hao Meng was thinking about it for a long time and didn't see the enemy's commander, when he saw a red-faced man with a beautiful beard in a big iron armor dozens of steps away, riding a horse with a long knife.
Hao Meng hooked the corners of his mouth, but he smiled very strangely on the battlefield full of bloody battles, dragged the tail of the spear and knocked over several enemy foot soldiers in, and easily carried a clip of the horse's belly and ran towards the enemy.
I was wondering what kind of fool was listing such a battle, no, people are coming!
Although the general looks mighty, but looking at his talent in leading the army, it is expected that he is just a straw bag, so Hao Meng did not pay much attention to it, and slapped Ma Lang with a spear and said: "General Lu's subordinate Sima Hanoi Hao Meng, who is coming?" ”
The two are dozens of steps apart, and Guan Yu's mount is just an ordinary yellow-maned horse, the mount that Yanbei gave him in his early years has long been given to Zhang Fei and later died on the battlefield, and he has never ridden any good horses again. However, although it was an inferior horse, the charging speed was not slow, Guan Yu frowned when he heard Hao Meng's words, and then he reined in the horse and fixed his eyes for a moment before he said in a deep voice: "Hedong, Guan Yunchang." ”
Guan Yu originally didn't plan to sign up, as an outlaw, he wanted to cut off his head and then find the next enemy general, but he didn't want this enemy general to sign up for him, if he didn't make a sound at this time, it would not be enough to be upright. But what should he be called? Guan Yu was thinking about this when he lived.
He should report to the military marquis Guan Yunchang under Sima Liu Xuande of other departments, but Liu Bei is now doing assassination in Qingzhou. Then he reported to General Yan Zhongqing's account under Sima Guan Yunchang?
In my heart, I don't think it's so suitable.
Simply, he reported the name of Hedong Guan Yunchang, and then slapped the horse intently, and greeted him with a long knife in the belly of the horse.
'Hedong Guan Yunchang? ’
Hao Meng followed Lu Bu in Bingzhou for several years in his early years, and he had never heard of such a number one person as Yunchang in Hedong, thinking that it was just a small role, tilting his head slightly, Hao Meng clenched the tail of the spear and rushed up to raise his hand to stab.
Guan Yu held the tail of the long knife in his right hand, held the long knife body in his left hand, and the blade rested diagonally on the left side of the horse's head in the direction of Hao Meng.
Hao Meng couldn't help but secretly regret when he stabbed this spear, just now he deliberately wanted to make a false move to deceive this sword-wielding enemy general's first move, after all, the spear stabbed out much faster than the big knife. But it was precisely because he had not used up his strength that he would have been able to stab the enemy under his horse with a single spear.
But it's not too late, a spear is better than a long knife...... Between the lightning and flint, Guan Yu did not turn over the blade of the knife, and used the back of the knife as a blade, slashed down, and smashed on Hao Meng's pocket.
With just one blow, the iron pocket was knocked out of a big hole, and the head protected under the hood could still be good?
Finishing lightly, Guan Yu didn't look at Hao Meng, who was slowly planted by the head of the mount and deformed and lifeless, paced the horse a few steps forward to relieve the momentum, and squinted at the side of the foot soldier who couldn't even hold a spear steadily.
"Cut off the head of the enemy general for Guan, and order the soldiers to form a formation to resist the enemy." There was no trace of excitement in the calm voice, Guan Yu looked at the chaotic battlefield, looking for the next target, and shouted loudly without warning: "The enemy general Hao Meng has been killed by my Guan Yunchang!" ”
