The closer he got to the street pavilion, Liu Yin became more cautious, step by step, the tiger cavalry battalion in the forward position and the Yong'an battalion and the Qiang battalion behind always only maintained a distance of two to three miles, and the army could be changed at any time to be listed as an attack battle formation.

After receiving the report from the scout, Liu Yin immediately ordered the Shu army to enter the battle state, and discharged the formation that had been drilled in advance, with the left battalion of the tiger cavalry and the right battalion of the tiger cavalry in the center, serving as the main assault force, the Yongan battalion as the left wing, and the Qiang battalion as the right wing, all lined up with spears.

With the infantry as the left and right flanks of the cavalry, and the spear battle formation as the defensive formation, Liu Yin's purpose was very clear, that is, to avoid the roundabout outflanking of the Wei cavalry. The cavalry was highly mobile, and although the infantry could not keep up with the rhythm of the cavalry, the way of forming a formation with spears could still effectively resist the onslaught of the cavalry.

The Wei cavalry has an advantage in numbers, if according to the normal tactics, the Wei cavalry will definitely use the tactics of outflanking, front and back, although Liu Yin is still full of confidence in his cavalry, but if the Wei army is trapped, the situation will not be too optimistic. Therefore, Liu Yin discharged two huge pike phalanxes on the left and right flanks, which was to provide flank protection for the cavalry in the middle and protect them from the risk of being attacked on the back of the abdomen.

Although the spear formation can effectively contain the enemy's offensive when dealing with the enemy's cavalry, it is always in a position of rear-attack, which means that it can be invincible at most, and if you want to break the enemy, you have to ride and suppress the horse.

If the spear phalanx on both wings is a shield, then the two tiger cavalry battalions in the middle are Liu Yin's sharpest spears. In this attack lineup, Liu Yin still discharged a formation with archers in the center and lancers as the left and right flanks.

However, it is slightly different from the formation when attacking the Qiang people in Wucheng Mountain, in the battle of Wucheng Mountain, the cavalry formation of the Shu army is in the shape of a zigzag, and the archers rush forward. The Lancers are flanked so that they can maximize the ranged attack capabilities of the Archers.

And this battle of Dishui Cliff was not a sneak attack but a frontal battle, and the Wei cavalry came with a tsunami, which was fierce and extremely fast. If it is still an attack formation with a zigzag formation, the archers may first collide head-on with the Wei cavalry, which is undoubtedly disadvantageous for the archers who are good at long-range strikes but have weak hand-to-hand combat capabilities.

Therefore, Liu Yin's formation this time was in a straight line, that is, the archers in the center and the lancers on the left and right flanks stood horizontally and attacked at the same time. The archers will attack first after the enemy cavalry is in range, and at the speed of both cavalry, the archers will be able to shoot up to two or three arrows. The archers will then slow down, allowing the lancers to burst forward and collide head-on with the enemy cavalry.

The Tiger Cavalry Battalion trained in Duangu for a winter, and the arrangement of the battle formation was very effective, with 10,000 cavalry quickly and quickly arranging into a line formation, with the archers in the center, the lancers on the left and right, and the rows of war horses in distinct layers. The formation is neat, and the bow and spear are drawn. Ready to go.

The deployment of cavalry is more difficult than that of infantry, after all, the infantry is only in place, and the cavalry not only needs personnel in place, but also the war horses must be in place synchronously. But the Tiger Cavalry Battalion was well-trained, and the speed of the formation was even faster than that of the Yong'an Battalion, not to mention the newly formed Qiang Battalion.

After the establishment of the Qiang barracks. Liu Yin sent a large number of middle- and low-level officers to the Qiang barracks to serve as the Dubo military marquis Sima of the Qiang barracks, and during the march, these military attachés of all ranks assigned to the Qiang barracks fully played their duties, and the organization and discipline of the Qiang soldiers were greatly improved. But the Qiang people's freedom and casualty want to be corrected, it is not an overnight achievement, just a array, it is much slower than the other troops of the Shu army, and the formation of the column can also be called the best, horizontal but not horizontal, vertical but not vertical.

However, no one can question the individual combat ability of the Qiang soldiers, and a newly formed army can be put into battle, which is already commendable, so Liu Yin did not demand too much that the Qiang soldiers must be consistent with the Shu soldiers.

Just when the Shu army completed the formation at the foot of the Dishui Cliff, the Wei cavalry had already pounced on the mountains and seas.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves was deafeningly heard, as if there were bursts of thunder in the sky, and the sound shook people's hearts. The thunder from far and near, looking far away, the horizon stirred up the dust and smoke that rushed to the sky, in the rolling dust and smoke, thousands of horses galloped, the momentum was like the Yellow River bursting the embankment, out of control.

The Wei army spread out on the battle line of several miles wide, the scene of 10,000 horses galloping was extremely spectacular, Tang Bin just wanted to use the strong impact of the cavalry to destroy the defense line of the Shu army in one fell swoop, so the Wei army in the first attack, there was no reservation, 20,000 cavalry were all put into the battlefield at one time, Tang Bin did not even leave a reserve.

It's all in one battle! Tang Bin is ready to rely on the powerful cavalry of the Wei army to defeat the reinforcements of the Shu army in the shortest possible time, and Tang Bin is confident in this, after all, in the history of previous wars, the Wei cavalry occupies an absolute advantage, and the weak Shu cavalry is impossible to compare with it.

Tang Bin had already seen the formation of the Shu army, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, no matter how carefully the Shu army arranged, as long as it entered the plain area, then this place was destined to become the stage of the Wei army, under the overwhelming offensive, any resistance became pale and powerless.

It's going to be a crushing victory!

Tang Bin did not doubt the final outcome of the battle at all, he raised the spear in his hand, raised his arms and shouted at the high-speed galloping war horse: "Kill!" ”

"Kill-kill-kill-" The Wei cavalry also shouted in unison, hissing as hard as they could, shouting and killing wrapped in the rumbling horses' hooves, the Wei iron cavalry was like a brown torrent, rushing towards the position of the Shu army with an unstoppable momentum.

On the opposite side, Liu Yin calmly looked at the Wei cavalry that appeared in the field of vision, and saw that the Wei army had entered the range of attack, he immediately drew his sword in his hand, and shouted in a deep voice: "I am invincible!" Attack to win! ”

"I am invincible - the attack will win - will win - will win - will win - " Thousands of soldiers of the Shu army raised their arms and shouted in unison, their morale was high, their fighting spirit was high, and the whole army had reached an unprecedented state of strength.

"Attack!" Liu Yinjian pointed ahead and calmly gave the order to go to battle. (To be continued.) )
