Chapter 358: Play with him
The Shu army quickly completed the formation, Yao Yi'an and Yao Yikang also appeared in the Qiang people's formation surrounded by the guards of the pro-soldiers, and the two sides faced each other in two circles on the Xiaoyugu Plain, and a big battle was about to break out.
Compared with the Shu army camp of 7,000 people, the Qiang camp is much larger, it can be described as overwhelming, compared to the neat and compact Shu army camp, the Qiang camp is much looser, and the Qiang people who were temporarily summoned did not even find their own establishment there, but went to a place with a lot of people, and the formation was not scattered.
However, the morale of the Qiang soldiers is still very high, most of the Qiang soldiers are still dressed in ordinary clothes, completely no different from the people, only the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands can prove that he is a warrior at the moment.
With such a huge army, Yao Yikang's confidence suddenly became full, he held his pair of crescent scimitars, rode a tall horse, rushed straight to the front of the formation, and called out to Liu Yin by name.
The fighting methods of fighting generals are ancient, and it is said in the "Soldiers' Planning": "The two formations are standing, and each will fight, which is called a challenge." But it is not the mainstream of the battlefield, to determine the outcome of a war, you have to rely on the overall combat effectiveness of the army and the command ability of the generals, not only the "courage of the main general", Sun Tzu Bing called the general must have "wisdom, faith, benevolence, bravery, strictness" five qualities to be called a famous general, is not powerful, can be used as a hard indicator, the ancient famous general, white martial arts mediocre, but can pit and kill 400,000 Zhao soldiers, Han Xin would rather be humiliated by the crotch, cowardly in private fights, but the power to carry the top of Chu overlord forced to die in Wujiang, It can be seen that the real famous generals are not the kind of brave and ruthless people.
But influenced by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Later generations mostly believed that the so-called cold weapon war was soldier-to-soldier. will fight against the general. Tiger Prison Pass Three Ying Battle Lu Bu, Guan Yu Punish Yan Liang, Chop Wen Chou, Pass Five Passes, Kill Six Generals, Zhao Zilong Changban Slope Seven in and Seven Out, Zhang Fei Pick Up the Lantern War Ma Chao These brilliant bridges have been talked about so far. After Liu Yin traveled to the Three Kingdoms, he realized that most of these so-called brilliance were fiction of Lao Luo, and the real war could only be cruel, and it was definitely not exciting. Although there is no shortage of fighting generals in the confrontation between the two armies, this is by no means the mainstream of warfare.
Of course, it is also undeniable that the fighting generals help the morale of the army. The winning side will inevitably have high morale and be invincible, while the defeated side will be demoralized and defeated with one touch. Therefore, the fighting generals are generally only carried out between opponents of equal strength, or if they have great confidence in themselves, they will go out, because once the main general is defeated or killed, the morale of the entire team will be a devastating blow, that is, because the rashness and recklessness of the main general will lead to the overall collapse of their own troops.
Compared with the Han army, it relied on battle formation tactics and strategy to win. The Qiang people prefer to fight alone, of course, this is inseparable from the Qiang people's loose discipline and fierce nature. Even in large-scale battles, the Qiang people also like to fight separately, each brave, rarely also fight together, within the Qiang people, the best way to solve disputes is who has a hard fist, often a fight, can solve all the contradictions.
Yao Yikang, who grew up in this environment, naturally has no lack of courage, and he is very confident in his own bravery.
For this matter, Yao Yikang is naturally angry, if he is really defeated in the hands of Liu Yin, he will naturally be convinced, but Liu Yin used the most dirty means, forcing him to retreat, such a breath, how can Yao Yikang swallow it easily.
Today, on this much-anticipated occasion, Yao Yikang rode out lightly and challenged Liu Yin by name, just to be ashamed. If Liu Yin doesn't dare to fight, then he can humiliate him well, if he dares to fight, Yao Yikang will definitely use the scimitar in his hand to teach him a good lesson, and show the evil anger in his heart.
"I think General Zhenbei is such a hero, and he is just a turtle with a shrunken head, if you are afraid of death, go back and sleep with your woman in your arms, don't come to Xiaoyu Valley to be embarrassed!" Seeing that there was no movement in the Shu army's formation, Yao Yikang expected that Liu Yin would not dare to fight, and he couldn't help but shout loudly on his toes.
Fu Zhi was furious and asked Liu Yin for his life: "Such a madman, wait for me to go out and teach him a lesson." ”
Liu Yin waved his hand gently, although Yao Gekang was arrogant, his martial arts were indeed extraordinary, even Wei Xuewu, who was proficient in swordsmanship, was injured by him, Liu Yin didn't think that the young Fu Zhi could have a great chance of winning in battle. Liu Yin looked around, and the Shu soldiers around him were obviously angered by Yao Yikang's arrogance, this guy was simply unsightly. At the same time, their eyes were also focused on Liu Yin, and they all wanted to see how Liu Yin responded.
Liu Yin said in a deep voice: "As he wishes, I will go to meet him in person." ”
Fu was slightly stunned, his brother-in-law didn't let him go to war but wanted to fight by himself, he was the chief general of the three armies. "General, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?"
Jian Hong's face also changed greatly, and he said anxiously: "The general is the commander of the three armies, how can he move lightly, the Qiang people are better at fighting alone, shorter than the battle array, how can the general abandon his strengths and weaknesses because of a moment of righteous indignation, and fall for the Qiang people's tricks?" ”
Liu Yin smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I am still sure of dealing with Yao Yikang, this son is arrogant, this time I need to teach him a good lesson, and I can also frustrate the spirit of the Qiang people." ”
Joke, Ma Chao was a first-class fierce general, with excellent martial arts, and he could take the head of the general in the 10,000-person formation, and he had never been afraid of the battle of the generals, and even the most courageous Qiang people were convinced of it, and they threw themselves to the ground. After Liu Yin was Ma Chao, he had won the essence of the Ma family's marksmanship, so how could he be afraid of the provocation of the Qiang people.
What's more, this expedition to Xiqiang is not to kill them all, but to focus on peace, promote peace with war, and subdue the Qiang people, the best way is to show their strong strength and make the Qiang people awe-inspired, just as Ma Chao did back then, only in this way can you get twice the result with half the effort. For a nation like the Qiang people, the most admired are warriors, and only true warriors can make them fearful.
Since Yao Yikang took the initiative to challenge, Liu Yin decided to play with him.
Seeing that Liu Yin had made up his mind, it was difficult to persuade each other anymore. Liu Yin rode Zhao Yebai, holding a tiger's head Zhan golden gun, the bell rang softly, and he rode out and came straight to Yao Yikang. (To be continued.) )
