After the Weixu tribe received Lu Bu's support, they began to gather people from various tribes. About 3,000 people, old and young, gathered together. Weixu was afraid of the Yanqi people, so before he knew exactly the arrival of Lu Bu's Han army, he would not
He was willing to take the initiative to attack, so he followed Yanqi's nomadic route from a distance and did not dare to get too close.
Today, we were informed by Han soldiers that Lu Bu's army had arrived at the rear. Wei Xu was asked to prepare. Wei Xu immediately summoned several leaders for discussion.
"If the people of Yanqi knew that the king came with the Han people, they would definitely not dare to fight and would run away..." A captain said, "Although Yanqi is said to have eight thousand people, not all of them are together. They are scattered in three areas.
Water grass pasture, so they will definitely escape after getting the news..."
"The Yanqi people are very cunning, we should be more careful..." Another captain added, "The same goes for the Han people... What if the Han people take advantage of us to fight with the Yanqi people..."
"The Han people shouldn't be so dishonest, right?" Another one of Wei Xu's subordinates said, "Don't the Han people talk about loyalty and loyalty every day? You can't just make a fuss about what you say, right?"
"You keep your word? Then why hasn't that big-assed bitch promised me the last time we had a drink?"
"This... this... I'm talking about Han people. What did you say I did? Besides, who knows if you deliberately made me drink at that time..."
"That's because you don't drink well, who can you blame?"
"Okay!" Chief Wei Xu had a headache. The nomadic people's loose alliance-tribal system was like the so-called democratic parliamentary system of rice in later generations. Discussions often went awry, "Yanqi must
beat!"
Chief Weixu spoke very resolutely and in a tough tone, but the captains under his command also nodded silently, and no one refuted. Because all Weixu people, including Chief Weixu, knew that on this grassland,
Only the weak will eat the strong. If a tribe appears weak, it will not only not get support from other tribes, but will also be invaded and devoured until the tribe disappears in history.
The Weixu people were defeated by the Yanqi people, and the status and dignity they had maintained were trampled to the ground. If they did not take this opportunity to re-establish it, the Weixu people would face being cut with small knives again and again!
Regardless of his position of power, even his wife in his own house may become the slave of others.
Therefore, no matter how Chief Weixu calculated it or how much he paid the Han people, he had to win the war with Yanqi first.
"We attack!" Chief Wei Xu said in a deep voice, "But we are not the main force! We can lure the Yanqi people out... and then engage in a pincer attack with the Han people! The Han people... are definitely willing to do the same..."
……o(′^｀)o……
"Daduhu! Yanqi has been chased out!" A Han army scout came galloping from a distance without dismounting. After reporting loudly, he quickly turned his horse's head and went to investigate again.
The scouts continued to bring information like a stream of water.
"Daduhu! The Yanqi people are very fast and are forty miles away from our army!"
"Daduhu, the Wei Xu people have passed through Caodianzi and are heading to the northeast!"
"The Yanqi people are thirty miles away from our army!"
One after another, the scouts rode horses and galloped back and forth, immediately conveying a message to the Han soldiers: a war was about to begin. The soldiers became excited, and everyone stopped whispering and began to check their weapons for the last time.
But the man who was going to accompany him on the battlefield couldn't let his chain fall because of some negligence.
Lu Bu sat on the ground calmly, stretched out a hand to touch the neck of the red rabbit horse beside him. The red rabbit horse lowered its head contentedly, snorted, stretched its neck and even shook it twice, changing its position to let Lu Bu scratch it.
Lu Bu behaved very calmly, only his eyes revealed a bit of excitement eager to fight.
Wei Xu also led a red horse and stood behind Lu Bu. Wei Xu was very envious of Lu Bu's red rabbit horse, so he also specially found a red horse, just like a certain Thai imitating a certain Jie in later generations. Anyway,
For those who don’t know much about horses, they look similar at first glance. Let’s not talk about performance and so on. The most important thing is that they are similar in spirit.
Gao Shun slightly sharpened the blade of the sword on the surface of the shield, then sheathed the sword, turned his neck, and made a soft clicking sound, appearing calm and composed...
Now the only ones following Lu Bu are Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, Cao Xing, and others like Song Xianhou. After Lu Bu arrived in the Western Regions, fought one or two battles, and after gaining a foothold, he asked Lu Bu to resign and left.
Lu Bu didn't stop them. They had a last drink together and gave some gold and silver. It could be said that they got together and parted well. It was much better than in history. At least they left each other's face and friendship.
Lu Bu traveled all the way, and there were many people under him, such as Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Chen Gong. Everyone knows it, and the more famous ones are like Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, and Hao.
Meng, Cao Xing, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Wei Xu and others, and some relatively unknown ones, such as Xu Si, Wang Kai, Xue Lan, Li Feng, Wu Zi, Hou Xie, Qin Yilu, Gao Ya, Zhao Shu, Li
Zou and others are basically unknown whether in history books or in unofficial history. Well, except for one, perhaps because of Guan Erye's relationship, Qin Yilu is more famous among these generals...
If it is beneficial to gather, it will gather; if it is beneficial to disperse, it will be dispersed.
This is normal, and there is no need to hold on to him. On the contrary, these people who were willing to stay with Lu Bu in the Western Regions for a long time gained Lu Bu's respect and trust.
Of course, there are those who have left, and there are also new ones who have joined, such as Meng Hong, a descendant of the Montessori family...
Following Li Ru were Meng Shu and Jiang Ji, and some descendants of the Meng family followed Lu Bu, learning and growing up in the war. After all, Lu Bu's cavalry fighting skills were quite sharp...
Next to Meng Hong was a reddish-brown horse with reverse stripes. He pulled the reins and followed Lu Bu very closely. He looked around nervously. This was his first time fighting such a battle with Lu Bu's large army. He seemed a little nervous. In addition,
As he watched the scout running around more and more frequently, his muscles all over his body became stiff and tense, and even his breathing became somewhat heavy and chaotic.
"Take a deep breath..." Lu Bu heard Meng Hong's heavy breathing like a blower, and couldn't help but turn around and said to him with a smile, "Take a deep breath... Yes, take a few more breaths... Just follow me..."
Meng Hong scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and took a few deep breaths according to Lu Bu's instructions. He felt that his breathing was easier, but his heart was still beating hard without any control.
"It is very important to know when to change formations when riding in battle..." Seeing that Meng Hong was still a little nervous, Lu Bu interrupted, on the one hand to eliminate the nervousness around him, and on the other hand to pass on his experience, "
The cavalry gathers and disperses very quickly, so when they should gather and when they should disperse is what a general needs to pay attention to most on the battlefield... There is no fixed time for this, only changes in the specific situation on the battlefield... But there are
One thing you need to pay attention to is that you can’t give orders more than three times, especially you can’t go back on your words, sometimes go east, sometimes go west..."
Meng Hong listened attentively, and his breathing gradually calmed down involuntarily.
"The center of this place is a meadow, surrounded by small slopes. With a terrain like this, you must be careful not to go to low-lying areas easily, otherwise you will suffer a big loss like the Yanqi people who came now..."
Lu Bu adjusted the girdle of the red rabbit horse beside him, then covered the red rabbit horse with a riding jacket, and then got on the horse.
"The whole army is ready!"
Lu Bu has always been the type to command from the front, so Lu Bu's line is very high up. Although Lu Bu told Meng Hong to follow him, the atmosphere before the battlefield was still a bit depressing, and Meng Hong couldn't help but start.
He became a little nervous and quickly started to take deep breaths using the method taught by Lu Bu.
The huffing and puffing sound may have been too loud. Even the guards following Lu Bu couldn't help but turn around and smile at Meng Hong. This made Meng Hong even more embarrassed and his face turned a little red.
Gao Shun glanced at Meng Hong, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but he didn't say anything. In Gao Shun's eyes, Wen Hou Lu Bu was in better shape now than he was in Shandong, and he would not get angry easily, or even
He also has the patience to teach young people in a friendly manner, which truly resembles Lu Bu's original appearance. When he was fighting the Xianbei people in Bingzhou, Lu Bu was like this. Then when he arrived in Luoyang, he began to slowly change. Now it seems
Everything is back on track again, this feeling...
Very comfortable.
Gao Shun looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.
All the soldiers had mounted their horses, and no one made a sound. Even the war horses could feel the battle that was about to break out. Their ears were raised and turning from time to time, as if they were ready to receive instructions to gallop forward at any time.
In the field of vision, billowing smoke and dust rose from the heights of the slope, and the sound of horse hooves sounded like thousands of small drums beating from light to heavy, getting louder and denser, and gradually the grass under their feet seemed to
It began to tremble, and some of the war horses began to become a little anxious, pawing at the ground uneasily.
Lu Bu remained calm and composed, with a happy smile even appearing on his face, and then he raised the Fang Tian Painted Halberd high amid the expectant gazes of everyone.
The messengers in the military formation immediately puffed up their cheeks and blew the horns they had held for a long time. The long and low charge call immediately resounded throughout the grassy slopes.
"Hoo..."
"Drive! Drive!"
The soldiers began to urge their horses forward, preparing to charge forward across the slope.
The terrain is like a plate, with a meadow sunken downwards in the middle. Therefore, when the Yanqi people rushed into the large plate from the outside, Lu Bu joined the battlefield from the outside of the plate and gave the Yanqi people a severe blow from the side.
"Kill! You bastards! Just one strike!" Lu Bu laughed, waving Fang Tian's painted halberd, and moved forward, "Follow me! Charge into the formation!"
It was only when the Yanqi people heard the sound of horns rising into the sky that they suddenly realized that they had fallen into a trap. There was an opponent on the flank, and they couldn't help but panic...
"No chaos! Charge!" the leader of the Yanqi people roared loudly, "Blow the trumpet and let the left wing intercept! The rest move forward! Don't stop!" The center is a depression. If you stop in the center, you are simply courting death, so the only option is The way is to continue to charge forward and engage in head-on combat with the opponent.
And there is no time to turn around, because the formation is not very complete during the pursuit. If you turn around at this time, some to the left and some to the right, they will definitely collide with each other and create greater chaos. From the flanks, There don't seem to be many people emerging from the slope. Use your left wing to intercept them, and then you can escape from this dangerous area.
When Lu Bu and others crossed the top of the slope, the slightly downward slope helped all the cavalry to accelerate to the limit in a short period of time. The Han cavalry roared loudly and pounced hard on the Yanqi people. Kill and go!
The Yanqi people's attacking left wing also ordered: "Up the arrow! Up the arrow! Release..."
Gray, white, black, and chaotic arrows rose into the air and headed towards Lu Bu. However, the arrows that Yanqi expected entered his body and made him fall over.
Not to mention the protective power of the Han cavalry armor, the horse jackets equipped by Lu Bu and others, which are both lightweight and defensive, can reduce the damage of projectile arrows to a certain extent, and fall from the air due to their own gravity. Even though some of the arrows hit the horses, they could not go in or penetrate deeply due to the clothes of the horses. Instead, they aroused the ferocity of the horses, and they screamed and ran forward.
After the Yanqi people fired two rounds, the two sides were already very close. Since the arrows did not have much ideal effect, even if the Yanqi people noticed something was wrong, they had no time to change other strategic patterns...
"Throw the gun! Get ready!"
As the mid-level officers of the Han cavalry entered the shooting range, they all shouted in unison, leading all the soldiers to draw the short-throwing spears attached to their backs. Even Lu Bu was no exception, backhanding from horseback. I took out one.
Compared with arrows, throwing guns naturally uses more iron, and after throwing them, even if you clean the battlefield, because the head and handle of the gun are easily damaged, it may not be reusable immediately, so it is relatively expensive.
They are consumables, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for, especially in a war...
At close range, the power of a thrown spear is several times that of an ordinary arrow!
No matter it is flesh, bones, or even ordinary armor, it can be broken through!
The Yanqi people had no defense against the spears coming towards them. With the continuous sound of "puff", large and small blood sprays suddenly burst out. The entire line seemed to have been swept across by a giant's hand.
, even the left-wing leader of the Yanqi people was not spared from such a ferocious attack. Although he was not hit directly, the war horse under his crotch was kicked up because he could not avoid it, and the whole man and horse jumped into the air.
What is shown in the air is a standard 180-degree roll...
At such a speed, even if the fallen horse survives or is not killed, it will be submerged by the rolling horses' hooves. The left wing of the Yanqi people is almost like a soap bubble. It has not been shaken for a long time before it is covered by it.
Lu Bu and others "Bu" stabbed and tore them apart, and then rushed towards the central army of the Yanqi people!
