Chapter 711: Correspondence between the Three Parties
For Niu Fu, what he lost last night was not only food and grass, but also the spirit of the entire army. Niu Fu originally came to Hedong just for food and grass, but as a result, an unknown fire last night not only burned all the troops plundered from Shaanxi and Tianjin
of grain and grass, and even lost the original stored grain...
What's even more outrageous is that Niu Fu is an old man, and the person who was worshiping him respectfully also quietly disappeared in the chaos last night!
When it was almost dawn, Niu Fu had just organized the camp, made breakfast with some food and grass rescued from the fire, and settled the soldiers for a while, but he received another news. General Fei Qian, the guarding commander, did not know.
When did he lead his troops to Anyi, they were arrayed outside Anyi City and were assembling siege equipment...
Of course, the siege equipment was not used to help Niu Fu attack Anyi. On the contrary, although Niu Fu's camp was well built, the camp walls were made of thick wooden piles and soil, which was indeed difficult for ordinary soldiers.
Destruction, but in the face of siege equipment, not to mention catapults, even ordinary rams can't withstand a few hits.
"How many troops are there?" Niu Fu asked through gritted teeth. This Fei Qian must be very good at picking the time, and he happened to appear at this point.
"Report to the general that there are about 3,000 infantry and baggage vehicles forming formation, but no cavalry is seen..."
"A chariot formation?" Niu Fu repeated, "No cavalry?"
Will the Hungarian Zhonglang have any cavalry?
This is obviously impossible, but where did Fei Qian place his cavalry?
"General... General, how should we respond?" the military commander who reported the military situation asked tentatively.
"...Fight...beat the drums, gather the generals, and fight!" Niu Fu understood that if he huddled in the camp and was blocked by Fei Qian at the entrance of the camp, he would not only be passively beaten, but more importantly, his own
Unless the cavalrymen dismantle the walls of the camp themselves, they will not be able to get out. How can they take advantage of the cavalry's ability to fight and run?
When infantry fights against cavalry, it is the most normal way to use chariot formations for defense. However, general chariot formations are effective against cavalry. However, when it comes to fighting against one's own cavalry, haha, the chariots have been broken by one's own hands over the years.
There are only dozens of formations if not hundreds. There are three thousand infantry and chariot formations. You really think highly of me, the general who protects the Huns!
No matter where he places the cavalry, he must first break the car formation in front of him!
Niu Fu gave an order, and suddenly the rumble of war drums sounded in the camp. The Xiliang soldiers temporarily put aside their whispers among themselves and worries about the future, grabbed their weapons, and rushed out of the camp with their helmets on.
, also began to form formation in front of Fei Qian's troops.
Niu Fu came to the front of the formation and looked at Fei Qian's formation. Twenty or so heavy baggage vehicles were divided into two rows and arranged horizontally in a staggered manner, blocking Niu Fu's sight. Although the figures behind the formation were shaking, the specific situation was
Can't see clearly.
Behind the car formation stood a simple wooden high platform, and on the high platform stood a large three-color banner, which should be the command post of General Fei Qian, the guarding commander.
Niu Fu temporarily put aside the worries of soldiers, food, etc., and concentrated on the battlefield that was about to unfold in front of him. He squinted his eyes and glanced at both sides of Fei Qian's car formation. On the left side of the car formation, Anyi City was guarded. Although there was
It is possible to attack a small open space with cavalry, but it will be hit by a double blow from the archers on the side of the car formation and the bows and arrows at the head of Anyi City...
The right side of the vehicle formation is supported by a forest. Although it is not very dense, it is not easy for the cavalry to move quickly through it...
× × × × × × × × × ×
Fei Qian and Xu Huang stood on the high platform behind the temporary vehicle formation, and they also tried their best to look at the Niu Fu troops who had begun to form formation in the distance.
A gust of wind blew up, causing the cloaks worn by Fei Qian and Xu Shu to flutter. The battle flag on the side of the high platform also stretched its body in the wind, its long tail fins swaying.
"Yuan Zhi, which side do you think General Niu will choose to break through?" Fei Qian asked.
Fei Qian asked casually, not really worried about Niu Fu's choice of direction, but thinking about whether to get a feather fan next time?
Feather fans don't seem to have any other uses besides being a first-class decorative effect. It's too hot to hold in the summer and too cold to hold in the winter. Could it be that there are some additional enhancement effects that I don't know about?
Xu Shu had no idea what Fei Qian was thinking in his head, so he answered honestly: "If it were an ordinary general, he would probably choose to break through from the open space under Anyi City, but this General Niu is also a general for many years.
, so he should do the opposite and be more likely to fight out of the woods..."
"But..." Xu Shu smiled slightly and said, "Actually, the ones he chooses to break through are all the same... Of course, before that, he will definitely attack us head-on to test our quality..."
The open space on the left side of the car formation looks like it can only withstand the attack of Anyi City from the side. However, in fact, the seemingly flat land has a large area covered with horse traps the size of a bowl. In addition,
There are also iron caltrops dotted all over it. If the Xiliang soldiers really choose this side to flank the car formation, they may die without knowing how.

At the top of Anyi City, Wang Yi and his county soldiers were also nervously watching the changes on both sides below the city.
There was an inexplicable fire in Niufu camp last night, which also caused Wang Yi not to sleep well all night.
After receiving the letter from Fei Qian who sent people to the city, although he made some preparations according to Fei Qian's instructions, Wang Yi was not sure whether it would be possible.
I also fully understand how strong the frontal attack power of the Xiliang soldiers is on the plains, otherwise I would not be hiding in the city and not daring to go out to fight in the field.
Can Fei Qian's soldiers withstand the attack of the Xiliang cavalry?
If Fei Qian loses, will Niu Fu become even more arrogant, and how will he deal with it?
Wang Yi's heart was agitated. Although he knew that Fei Qian's extra request was a backup plan, if the car formation in front of him was broken, what was the use of having more backup plans?
Wang Yi was lying on the parapet. Because of his height, he could somewhat see some of the arrangements behind Fei's submarine formation...
Isn’t the gap between the Fei Submarine Formation too big?
Those soldiers in heavy armor look good, but there are not many of them...
Are those archers in the back?
Can such a configuration withstand it?
"Where are the arrows? How come there are only so few? Go get some more, and bring some more wood and rolling stones!" Wang Yi frowned, retracted his body, and then looked at the equipment piled on the top of the city.
The voice urged.
Wang Yi thought about it, but he didn't think how Fei Qian's thin double horizontal vehicle formation could withstand the powerful impact of the Xiliang cavalry. But at this time, he could only provide some support on the top of the city.
Wang Yi still couldn't do it if he wanted to lead his troops out of the city to face the Xiliang cavalry...
The screen is very reflective. Now the direction of the sunset window is just in the direction where the sun sets and the light will be reflected on the screen... What should I do to block the light? The table and the window are fixed and cannot be moved. So... use
