Commanding four thousand men, Gao Shunyi was not afraid. He understood that as long as he seized this opportunity, he could re-enter the core of the Xiliang Army. Otherwise, he would have to disappear from everyone and become a silent little general. This is Gao Shunyi.
What cannot be tolerated, when it comes to the rules of marching and fighting, Gao Shun thinks he is not inferior to others. Although the soldiers under his command tend to defend and then attack, Gao Shun has a heart of continuous improvement, which he learned in the Xiliang Army.
There are indeed many.
Five hundred of the four thousand men were cavalry, and the general of the cavalry was actually Ma Chao.
Seeing this situation, the generals were surprised and looked at Jia Rong with a hint of confusion. Could it be that in Jia Rong's eyes, Ma Chao's status was lower than Gao Shun? This little-known general was in the Xiliang Army.
He didn't have any "outstanding" combat results in his career, but he made a sudden move, but he was reused like this.
Thinking of what happened to Huang Zhong, many people turned their attention to the battlefield. Huang Zhong was just an unknown battalion general at the beginning, but he was able to become the commander-in-chief of an army and attack Daijun. Why couldn't Gao Shun do the same? This battle
, if Gao Shun can win, his status in the army will become higher and higher in the future.
The two armies faced each other, Gao Shun was in the middle of the formation, and he was protected by the most elite infantrymen, 800 of them. The equipment was inferior to that of the trapped camp, but looking at the whole world, it was super equipment.
Yuan Shaofang saw that the Xiliang army only sent out 500 cavalry, and the commander of the army did not know him. He was determined and asked Wen Chou to go out personally in order to reverse the disadvantage in one battle.
Wen Chou looked at the handsome flag across from him with a look of confusion in his eyes, because Gao Shun no longer rode a war horse and was fighting on foot. Looking at it, even Wen Chou would have a hard time finding out who this army was.
commander in chief.
Wen Chou secretly laughed. It can be seen that the commander of the Xiliang army has little experience. The infantry is in the front. As long as the cavalry is charged and breaks the opponent's battle formation, the infantry behind will rush forward. No matter how capable the Xiliang cavalry is, they can only
When he was defeated, he placed the cavalry on the flanks and rear. This was the first time he had seen such a commander.
Grinning, Wen Chou waved the long knife in his hand a few times casually, and shouted loudly: "The cavalry will follow me forward!" [
Six hundred cavalry followed Wen Chou and attacked Gao Shun's central army. The wild goose formation was able to penetrate the infantry camp very well on the battlefield and defeat the enemy. It is debatable that the cavalry is the nemesis of the infantry.
Gao Shun said coldly: "Reject the enemy!"
The eight hundred soldiers in front of him moved, and a huge battle formation was formed. Different from the trapped formation, Gao Shun's infantry only had shields, spearmen and swordsmen, which greatly increased the defensive capabilities of the soldiers.
The thick shield fell to the ground and stirred up bursts of dust. The infantry relied on the shield in their hands to try to resist the charge of the cavalry.
When Wen Chou, who was charging, saw this, he showed a playful smile on his face, and used infantry to block the cavalry charge. Could it be that the general of the Xiliang Army was fooling around and came up with such a despicable trick? Wen Chou has never seen any of them.
The infantry can withstand the charge of the cavalry, and even the elite Euphorbia warriors in the Jizhou army are no exception. They are just soldiers who slowed down the opponent and then rushed out rashly.
There was no movement from the five hundred Xiliang Army cavalry. Ma Chao could not take any action before receiving Gao Shun's order. Looking at the charging cavalry, Ma Chao muttered: "Gao Shun, Gao Shun, let me see how you resist, general."
Cavalry charge!”
A situation that surprised everyone occurred. The cavalry arrived, but the infantry did not make any concessions. The shields were still on the ground. The cavalry in front tried to knock the infantry camp away with great force.
The man and the horse collided with the infantry. Everyone on the field only saw the shield shake a few times, and then there was no movement. On the other hand, the charging cavalry, both the man and the horse, fell to the ground. However, under such a huge impact,
The infantry behind the shield also struggled a bit.
There is an outrigger on the shield. After being supported on the ground, it can block the charge of the cavalry to the greatest extent. This is also a little secret of the Xiliang Army shield soldiers. The soldiers trapped in the camp are also equipped with the same equipment.
Three waves of cavalry charges were blocked in succession. Wen Chou's face changed drastically. The cavalry who fell in front became the biggest obstacle to the cavalry from behind. It could slow down the speed of the cavalry. The cavalry who lost their speed could only become infantry.
target.
"Kill!" Gao Shun said coldly.
One after another, spears were thrust out from the gaps in the shields. The unprepared cavalry were stabbed like sieves. At Gao Shun's order, the spearmen all retracted their spears.
This was repeated several times, and a dense number of cavalry corpses had fallen in front of the formation. The shield soldiers put away their shields and moved forward slowly, like a solid fortress. Every time they took action, some of the cavalry would fall off their horses. In Wen Chou's eyes, it could be broken with one blow.
The infantry have become cavalry reapers.
Seeing the chaos of the Jizhou Army cavalry, under Gao Shun's order, Ma Chao moved. Five hundred cavalrymen, with thunderous momentum, rushed into the Jizhou cavalry. They rushed and killed the opponent's chaotic camp.
They fought against each other and killed them in familiar divisions. Within half an hour, Wen Chou had only a hundred cavalrymen in his hands, and they fled back to the Jizhou army in embarrassment.
When the cavalry was fighting, Gao Shun naturally had no reason to rest. With the cavalry clearing the way, he easily overturned the people killed by the Jizhou Army. The large number of people did not bring any trouble to Gao Shun. The heavy armor on the infantry was extremely heavy.
Protecting their lives, they broke into the Jizhou army one by one like murderous gods.[
The infantrymen behind him took the opportunity to swarm forward, and the situation was decided!
Even Jia Rong did not expect that Gao Shun would adopt such a combat method, using the elite infantry to hold back the opponent's cavalry, and then rely on the superiority of his own cavalry to charge into the opponent's camp and win. This method of victory is extremely dangerous.
It can be said that it is not a big deal. If the infantry accidentally fails to resist the cavalry, Gao Shun will face the defeat of his own army. Even if his own cavalry steps forward again, it will be difficult to save the defeat.
However, anyone who uses this move must have sufficient confidence in their chests, and the troops in their hands are indeed elite. In this battle, Wen Chou was not unjustly defeated. He wanted to use cavalry to charge Gao Shun, which was quite satisfactory. On the battlefield, the cavalry was originally
He was the nemesis of the infantry. Unexpectedly, he encountered an existence that was comparable to soldiers trapped in the camp. The perverted infantry directly resisted the charge of the cavalry.
Yuan Shao looked at his own soldiers who were defeated with a gloomy expression, and sent Yan Liang to lead the army to charge for a while before he could save the defeat.
In the battle between generals and soldiers, the Jizhou army all fell into the inferior position, but in Jia Rong's view, it was natural. In terms of generals, the opponent was not as good as him, and in terms of elite soldiers, it was difficult to resist, so how could he win?
After the victory in the first battle, the morale of the Xiliang army was high. Jia Rong also led the army to charge forward and killed thousands of Jizhou soldiers before withdrawing his troops and returning to the camp.
On the battlefield, it is rare for both sides to take the initiative to decide the outcome. In ancient times when communication technology was backward, it was very difficult to catch the opponent's cavalry on the vast battlefield. When they focused on avoiding
, even if tens of thousands of people are dispatched, it will be difficult to wipe out thousands of cavalry unless there are enough troops to besiege the opponent's city and force the opponent to fight.
After Yuan Shao failed in the first battle, he stood still and the battle between the two sides' scouts entered a fierce stage. The Jizhou army's scouts were always one step behind and were defeated every time.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Yuan Shao's face was gloomy. He glanced at the people in the tent and said coldly: "The Jizhou army has nearly 100,000 elite troops. How can it be inferior to the 10,000 Xiliang army? The other side's cavalry is constantly coming.
They are roaming within the range of our army. I wonder if you have any strategies to eliminate them."
After a brief silence, Tian Feng spoke up: "My lord, the Xiliang army is moving within our army's territory not just to intrude on our army's food routes, but rather to lure them with food and grass."
Yuan Shao stood up and said: "Yuan Hao, please tell me quickly!"
Tian Feng explained his strategy in detail. Yuan Shao's eyes lit up after hearing this. This strategy has a high success rate. Cutting off food and grass is fatal to a large army. The Xiliang army must also understand this. When a large number of
When the cavalry's food and fodder appeared in their sight, how could they remain unmoved.
"Leave this matter to Yuan Hao. If we can win, you should be the first to take the lead!" Yuan Shao made the final decision.
Tian Feng handed over his hand and promised, and a stern look flashed in Xu You's eyes. Unexpectedly, Tian Feng came into Yuan Shao's sight again because of a strategy. In terms of strategy, Xu You was not as good as Tian Feng, but in terms of the skill of courting a horse, he was
Ten Tian Feng are not as good as one Xu You.
"If you have any needs, just ask." Yuan Shao said generously. Defeating the Xiliang Army cavalry is of great significance. As Tian Feng said before, food and grass are very important to an army. If the Xiliang Army cavalry really wants to have food, then
The fate of the Jizhou army is worrying. With tens of thousands of troops, the consumption of food and grass is not a small amount.
"Lord, this matter is of great importance." Tian Feng looked around.
Yuan Shao understood and issued an order to expel the guests: "If you have trouble, please go back to the camp and be careful to prevent the Xiliang army from sneaking into the camp!"
Xu You glanced at Tian Feng dissatisfied, said goodbye and left.
Coming out of Yuan Shao's tent, Tian Feng had a faint smile on his face and walked cheerfully and lightly.
A grain and fodder team was marching slowly. The general responsible for escorting the grain and fodder kept urging the soldiers to be careful around them. The carriages creaked and creaked non-stop.
Mi Wei led a cavalry group to ambush not far from the Jizhou Army's grain and grass road. After many days of exploration, he had learned that the Jizhou Army's grain and grass passed through here every three days.
After hearing the scout's report, Mi Wei rubbed his hands and was about to give an order when the lieutenant general asked: "General, the Jizhou Army had 500 soldiers escorting grain and grass before, so why are there only more than 300 this time?"
Mi Wei smiled nonchalantly and said: "This is the territory of the Jizhou Army, so naturally we don't need too many soldiers and horses to escort food and grass."
The deputy general said oh and didn't ask any more questions.
Mi Wei led two hundred cavalry to suddenly rush out, and the soldiers escorting the grain and grass suddenly became a mess. Some soldiers even fled in confusion, without caring about the safety of the grain and grass.
