Liu Yu frowned slightly: "No, because this is too dangerous. Our original strength is less than half of the opponent's, and we have to divide our forces to encircle you. Although your archers are all elites selected from a thousand, they are not enough."
More than 200 people are also responsible for the long-range strikes of the entire army. If we go around the enemy's rear, it will be very dangerous if the enemy forces attack from both sides."
Tan Pingzhi smiled slightly and pointed to a location on the map: "If we fight here, there is a barren hill in Jurong Plain, ten miles east of Jiang Cheng's camp, where hundreds of people can be ambushed. Ordinarily,
Wu Fuzhi will send scouts widely to search the battlefield, but at his current marching speed, he should not take into account the positions of about five miles on both wings. As long as we meet him head-on here, we will kill him in a group when he arrives. He focuses on
From the front, I'm afraid you won't notice the detour of a team of several hundred people from the side."
He Wuji said thoughtfully: "Bottle's words make sense. If we don't wait for the enemy to form a formation and rush in bravely, then the bow and arrow will be of little use. Whether Bottle strikes from the side or comes out from behind the enemy,
Attacking its rear army is a good choice."
Liu Yu pondered for a moment, then turned to Meng Longfu on the side and said: "Ronglong, your cavalry team now has three hundred cavalry and six hundred horses, right?"
Meng Longfu nodded, shook his head, and said: "To be precise, it's three hundred war horses and three hundred pack horses. The total number of horses in Jingkou City and Guangling is so many. After all, Huan Xuan still has some influence on us."
As a precaution, we didn’t leave too much ordnance in the Jiangbei camp. Fortunately, we don’t have big requirements for baggage, and the pack horses can also be used as auxiliary horses for attack. Brother Jinu, do you want us to detour behind the enemy lines?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, the target of the three hundred cavalry is too big, and it is easy for the enemy to detect it. Moreover, the Tiger Army also has cavalry. We cannot rely entirely on infantry to fight. I want to keep your three hundred cavalry on the front and use them."
, but I want your packhorse, Bottle, your archers will all be able to ride horses."
Tan Pingzhi laughed: "Every soldier of the Beifu Army must undergo strict riding training. Not to mention that they can sleep on the horse like the northern Huqi, at least there is no problem in riding a horse. Jinu, you want us to ride in a roundabout way.
Behind enemy lines? But let me explain in advance that mounted shooting is not our specialty. To shoot, you still have to dismount."
Liu Yu waved his hand: "To the west of Jurongyuan, there is a grassless wasteland. When I give the order, you will fight out of the deserted hills. Remember, the tails of the pack horses must be tied with enough leaves and branches. I will
I want you to raise dust everywhere, with a scale of three hundred people, and create the momentum of three thousand riders, do you understand?"
Tan Pingzhi's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands suddenly: "Gao, if this happens, not only Wu Fuzhi's Tiger Army will be shaken and panicked when they see the smoke and dust behind them, but also the Chu Army in Jiang Cheng's camp, too.
If you don’t know the reality of our army, you won’t dare to attack!”
Liu Yu laughed: "Yes, if the Chu army in Jiang Cheng's camp wants to wait and see, they are destined not to rescue them with all their strength. If they really make a tentative attack, I will arrange for the dragon's cavalry to attack and fight them back.
Raptor, when the time comes to fight, the Chu army will attack me with cavalry. You must lead the cavalry to counterattack, but be careful, you only need to rush through the cavalry line, there is no need to turn back and charge again."
Meng Longfu smiled and said: "Understood, Brother Jinu, just like in previous battles, break through the enemy's front line and then attack the infantry behind, right?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, in today's battle, we must not attack the opponent's infantry."
Meng Longfu was stunned for a moment, looked at Suo Miao next to him, and said in surprise: "Why is this? Isn't the cavalry just trying to attack the opponent's infantry line and disrupt the opponent's formation?"
Liu Yu said seriously: "This time is different from the past. The Jingzhou warriors have long halberds and very strong frontal impact resistance. They are far different from those demon thieves of Tianshi Dao who focus on short soldiers and are good at close combat and disadvantageous in formation. You
Confronting the enemy's cavalry in front will reduce the speed to a very low level and greatly reduce the impact. If you break through the enemy's tight formation at this time, not only will you not be able to disrupt the opponent's formation, but you will suffer heavy losses. Even if Wu Fu
It is not impossible to use a hollow formation or stacked formation like Zhibu, and then let you enter the center of the formation after obstruction, and then surround you on all sides. I am afraid that the whole army will be annihilated. Therefore, you must not directly attack the opponent's formation in this formation. This is
Military order!"
Meng Longfu gritted his teeth: "That requires us to take a detour from the enemy's side and meet Brother Bottle behind the enemy's formation, right?"
Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction: "The Raptors said it well. Sure enough, you will understand after a little digging. Yes, it is like this. The small forest on Jurong Yuan is on the south side. You can go around it from the north side and then see the situation.
It depends. If the Huben army wavers, you can attack from behind. If there are troops, especially cavalry, from Jiang Cheng's camp trying to attack Bottle's headquarters, you can attack and intercept them. You must push back the reinforcements coming from Jiang Cheng's direction.
Understand?"
Meng Longfu laughed and said: "There is no problem with this. If the camp comes out for rescue, it will definitely not be possible to form an array immediately. If skirmishers or rangers attack, I am confident that we can fight back."
Liu Yi smiled and said: "Raptor, when you pass the enemy formation from the side in a roundabout way, don't forget to mount and shoot a round, and don't make their rear army too comfortable. However, don't rush into the formation in a hurry. In this battle, protect the bottle.
It comes first, understand?"
Meng Longfu and Suo Miao stood up at the same time, performed a military salute, pressed their hands on their chests, pointed their thumbs inwards, and pulled them sideways: "You have the order!"
Liu Yu nodded: "Pingling, you go ahead first, and your troops ride over. First, let dozens of riders go to the Jiangcheng area to lure Wu Fuzhi to attack. Then you pretend to be defeated and retreat. By the way, you go around in a circle and retreat into the forest. Stay still."
, be sure to ambush, we will set off later, see you in Jurong!"
Tan Pingzhi smiled and said, "Look at me!"
When Liu Yu said this, he suddenly thought of the meeting that night, and a bad premonition came to his mind. He suddenly shouted: "Bottle, wait a minute."
Tan Pingzhi had already picked up his big bow and turned around to leave. When he heard this, he turned around and asked in surprise: "What's the matter?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Everything must be done carefully and the situation must be assessed. Don't force yourself. We, comrades in Jingba, cannot allow anyone to have an accident again!"
Tan Pingzhi laughed, turned around and walked away. As he walked, he raised his fists and raised his arms: "After all these years, when have I, Tan Pingzhi, ever let everyone down? Don't worry, we will see who kills the enemy first!"
Liu Yu moved his eyes away from Tan Pingzhi's confident back, looked at everyone, and said slowly: "Everyone, go back to the team, let the soldiers each eat a piece of cake, drink half a bag of water, and prepare for battle!
An hour later, Jurongyuan!"
