Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Whole Army Charges!
"That's right, this is a good opportunity, a good opportunity for the Ziyang Kingdom to lose 300,000 support troops!"
Lu Feng had a cold smile on his face.
He is not a fool, an army of 300,000 without cavalry, facing more than 90,000 elite iron cavalry, there is only one result, he was slaughtered!
Or a one-sided massacre!
As the old saying goes, cavalry has clouds: a small formation with one enemy five, a middle formation with one enemy ten, and a large formation with one enemy twenty.
That is to say, a cavalry of several hundred scales is equivalent to five infantry, a cavalry of several thousand is equivalent to ten infantry, and a cavalry of tens of thousands of scales is equivalent to twenty infantry. It is better to have 50,000 iron cavalry than a million infantry, because the combat effectiveness of 50,000 iron cavalry who know how to cooperate with the army is far more than more than one million infantry, and 100,000 iron cavalry is invincible.
Of course, this kind of invincibility is not absolute, if there are cavalry on the opposite side, not much, only one or two thousand, you can lose more than forty percent of your combat effectiveness.
Because tens of thousands of cavalry dragged a little time, the infantry condensed formations, bows and arrows, bed crossbows, and so on.
Once the infantry is condensed, the cavalry's combat effectiveness will be reduced by about 20%, which is a very terrifying number.
And now there are no cavalry in the 300,000 army of the Ziyang Kingdom, which is equivalent to giving the head of more than 90,000 iron cavalry under Lu Feng's current command!
"Your Majesty, I will immediately give the order and let the soldiers prepare for battle!" Lu Bu's face was full of excitement, this was his first battle with Lu Feng!
"Not for now!"
Lu Feng waved his hand and said, "Jiang Lixiao's 300,000 troops are a hundred miles away from us, according to their marching speed, it will take about half a day, let the soldiers rest well, recover their strength, and wait until there is still half an hour left before they can prepare!"
"Your Majesty is benevolent, I, the Commodore thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Bu bowed.
Lu Feng waved his hand and said, "Since we have decided to fight, we must plan carefully, you say, where is the best place to fight?"
"Your Majesty, there is a slope five miles ahead, the slope is not large, but the area is very wide, enough for the cavalry array to spread, when the time comes, our army will charge, and in less than half an hour, we will be able to break through Jiang Lixiao's army!" Jia Xu immediately said respectfully.
"Okay, just do what Wenhe said, everyone go down and prepare!"
"Yes!"
In the blink of an eye, the sun is about to set.
On a slope, Lu Feng led more than 90,000 iron horsemen to be ready for battle, and ten miles away, Jiang Lixiao's army was Jiang Lixiao's army, and Jinyiwei was reporting news at any time.
"It seems that this Jiang Lixiao is simply a waste, and it is simply stupid that there are no scouts sent for ten miles!" Lu Bu was very disdainful of this Jiang Lixiao.
Lu Feng smiled faintly and said, "It's not strange, Jiang Lixiao doesn't know that we have more than 90,000 iron horses, and this side also belongs to the control zone of the Ziyang Kingdom, of course they won't send iron horses, but this is a good thing for us, don't charge now!"
"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, if Jiang Lixiao knew that we had cavalry, he would probably have turned around and returned to Yangping Valley by now!" Jia Xu said with a smile.
Lu Bu nodded and said no more.
"Okay, ten miles, it won't be long before they arrive, Feng Xian, you are a cavalry general, you are an expert in this aspect of combat, come, how do you say we can fight the best?" Lu Feng looked at Lu Bu and asked.
Lu Bu groaned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, if my order offends you, I hope to forgive you!"
"Haha, I, Lu Feng, am not a stingy person, you give the order, today, I can be your pioneer!"
"Yes, the last general will obey!"
Lu Bu said respectfully, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will lead 50,000 iron cavalry to attack head-on, Your Majesty, you will lead 25,000 iron cavalry to the rear, cut off Jiang Lixiao's back road, and prevent anyone from returning to Yangping Valley to report the news, Master Jia will lead 10,000 iron cavalry to attack from the left flank, and I will arrange for someone to lead 10,000 iron cavalry to attack from the right flank, so that Jiang Lixiao's 300,000 army is the fat in our mouth!"
"Fengxian, your arrangement is very good, but I am not satisfied!" Lu Feng shook his head and said.
Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please speak!"
"Although I am not as strong as you, there is no need to hide behind to watch the battle, and you arrange for others to do it, and I will fight on the right wing!"
Lu Feng knew very well that the iron cavalry rushed to kill, and there were too few infantry who could escape for their lives, and as for the rear road, they were basically slaughtered if they couldn't run anywhere.
Lu Feng didn't plan to go to the back road to watch the play, let alone take 25,000 iron horses to the play.
Lu Bu looked at Lu Feng, groaned slightly, and said, "The last general will obey the order!"
Lu Bu immediately changed the arrangement, and the rear had people lead 10,000 people to cut off the road, and Lu Feng led 25,000 iron cavalry to attack from the right flank.
The order went down, and everyone immediately moved.
Ten miles away, less than half an hour, Jiang Lixiao's army has arrived.
"General, look, what's on the slope?"
Jiang Lixiao sat in the Chinese army, and the cronies next to him pointed to the black pressure on the slope in front.
Jiang Lixiao looked up, his brows furrowed slightly, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "That's a cavalry!"
He fought with the barbarians in the north all the year round and was very familiar with cavalry.
"What, cavalry, where did this cavalry come from?"
"This is a place controlled by our Ziyang Kingdom, how can there be cavalry? Even if there are cavalry, why haven't we got any news!"
Jiang Lixiao couldn't wait to give himself two big mouths at this time, why did he carelessly think that there would be no enemies on this road, and he didn't send scouts!
Now, he can only count on these cavalry not too many.
At the same time, he said angrily: "Array, array!"
The orders around were passed down, and the 300,000 army moved, but where was the 300,000 army so easy to move?
Lu Bu stood on the slope, watched the infantry below move, sneered, waved the halberd of Fang Tian in his hand, and said angrily: "Loyal and righteous iron cavalry, the whole army charges!"
Lu Bu took the lead and rushed down the slope.
Fifty thousand horsemen followed, and the earth shook.
The infantry of the Ziyang Kingdom below, in the face of such an iron cavalry charge, their faces were pale, and they couldn't raise the will to resist at all, and many of them threw away their weapons and turned around and ran back.
In an instant, the already uncohesive military formation was even more shattered.
Seeing this, Lu Bu smiled coldly, Fang Tian's halberd waved again, and let out a long roar: "Kill!"
"Kill!"
He was the leader, and 50,000 loyal and righteous iron rode behind.
Instantly rushed into the military formation.
Lu Bu Fang Tian painted a halberd and took the lives of hundreds of people around him.
The red rabbit under the crotch took him, like the tip of a sharp sword, and stabbed into the heart of the enemy.
Behind him, 50,000 loyal iron horsemen rushed into the infantry without any formation, and immediately a one-sided slaughter began.
"Steady, give me all steady, steady!"
Jiang Lixiao held the general's sword in his hand and kept waving it, trying to stabilize the morale of the army.
