The opponent has heavy armor, and it is difficult for the cavalry to attack. The attack with fire is the result of Yan Xing's hard thinking. Don't you like to hide in the grain cart? I will set fire to burn you out, and the miraculous effect of the surprise attack will be lost.
The role of infantry was reduced to a minimum.
To Yan Xing's expectation, the people protecting this grain transport team were not heavy infantry, but soldiers in light armor. They moved quickly and quickly. Obviously Tian Feng was also constantly improving his strategy in order to kill the enemy as much as possible.
, the Jizhou Army finally found a way to restrain the Xiliang cavalry, so naturally they would not miss it.
A fire will burn down all the plots of the grain and grass carts, and a victory that has been carefully planned will also be achieved under the attack of the fire.
Yan Xing looked at the panicked soldiers in the fire, with a cheerful smile on his lips. The task ordered by Jia Rong could be carried out in this way in the future, to cut off the grain and grass from Jizhou.
Five hundred cavalry effortlessly broke through the grain and grass troops. All soldiers who resisted or surrendered were executed by Yan Xing's order. This is a battlefield, not a charity. If you take in an enemy, there will be a change during the battle.
This grain transport team only has more than 500 people, and it does not transport much grain and grass. It is obviously an ambush deliberately set by the Jizhou Army for the Xiliang Army. Yuan Shao still attaches great importance to the real team that transports grain and grass. Each convoy,
At the very least, they are guarded by a thousand people, and their combat strength cannot be underestimated.
Yan Xing was a little dissatisfied with this performance. He set his sights on a larger grain transport team. After three days of exploration by scouts, there was a place more than ten miles away from here where Jizhou military grain and grass passed by every time.
There are a thousand soldiers escorting them, and they are obviously the real main force in transporting food. If this team of transporting food is eliminated, it will definitely make Yuan Shao suffer for a while.
Yan Xing's side achieved a small victory, but Ma Teng's side still made little progress. Without advanced communication measures in ancient times, it was impossible for Yan Xing to contact Ma Teng immediately and inform him of his winning tactics.
Ma Teng has led his army to follow this grain transport team for two days. Every time Ma Teng sends dozens of cavalry forward to constantly provoke the opponent. As time goes by, the grain transport soldiers are accustomed to this, and when the cavalry arrives, they will not
He was really panicked before, but there was a trace of disdain in his eyes. He relied on the grain and grass carts to resist the cavalry charge in an orderly manner [
With a long spear, Ma Chao rode alone into the grain transport team, killing the grain transport team and causing a "chaos". The general kept shouting for the soldiers to come forward. Ma Chao used all his strength, stabbed with the spear in his hand, and fought his way out of the siege.
The battle killed and wounded more than ten soldiers, which made the food transport team become much more cautious, and the disdain towards the cavalry was reduced a lot.
Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao and shook his head slightly. He was brave when he was brave. He lacked enough calmness and patience. He was like Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong in the Xiliang army. In terms of martial arts, Ma Chao couldn't match him, and his mind was even more beyond his reach. Sometimes Ma Teng couldn't match it.
I am worried about Ma Chao. With his character, it will be difficult for him to obtain an important position in the army. Maybe he can make some progress after being trained on the battlefield and training in military theory classes. Even Huang Zhong was at Ma Chao's age.
This may not necessarily be possible.
However, Ma Chao's charge also improved the morale of his own cavalry team a little. The Xiliang cavalry believed that there is no unbeatable enemy. Even the fierce Xianbei people on the grassland were defeated by them, let alone a mere
When the Jizhou grain transport soldiers take him seriously, no matter how many tricks the grain transport soldiers have, they can slowly eat him up.
When passing through a plain area, Ma Teng finally made a move. The 500 cavalry were divided into ten batches and launched an attack on the transportation team. Each time they started shooting arrows from a stone's throw away, making the food transportation troops tired.
In order to cope with it, they were just soldiers escorting food and grass. Without shields, they could not resist the dense arrows. Under such an offensive, they could only keep dodging in the hope of escaping. Under the real threat of life and death,
For them, merit is somewhat out of reach. For merit, few soldiers are willing to pay the price of their lives. Merits in battle are valuable, and life is even more valuable.
After all, there are only a few who stand out on the battlefield, while the greater number of people are just mediocre, working as monks and clocking the clock every day.
The grain transport team was in chaos. The ambushes hiding in the grain and grass carts could no longer sit still and rushed out one after another. The generals among them were obviously higher-ranking than the generals who escorted the grain and grass carts. They constantly organized soldiers to rely on the grain and grass carts to fight with Xiliang.
The army fights.
The combat method of the grain transport soldiers is very correct. They rely on their own advantageous items to fight the enemy. This method has appeared many times in history. The infantry during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also used this method to resist the Huns cavalry.
The attack is remarkable.
Ma Teng frowned when he saw the opponent's general organizing soldiers behind the grain and grass carts. If the situation continued like this, the opponent would definitely be able to withstand the charge of the cavalry. Moreover, there was not much grain and grass in this grain transport team, and they were just tourists.
This kind of team is just a bait hanging on the battlefield. There are many more on the battlefield. Ma Teng really doesn't understand that Yuan Shao spent a lot of troops just to deceive the Xiliang army and kill a few cavalry.
Previously, the Xiliang Army lost more than 500 cavalrymen. The price paid by the Jizhou Army must have been thousands of people. It can be said that it took several lives to exchange for one cavalryman.
Ma Teng withdrew his troops and continued to follow the grain transport team.
Not only did Yan Xing think of the fire attack, Ma Teng also thought of it and put it into practice. Under the attack of the fire, the grain and grass carts they relied on became an obstacle to the soldiers. Under the scorching fire, they continued to
Fleeing in all directions, this time it was a real escape. Ma Teng relied on the cavalry in his hands and quickly won the victory. On the battlefield, the Jizhou army was at a disadvantage under the fire attack of the cavalry. The backup of grain and grass was hindered, and Yuan Shao was also a little anxious.
.
On the Xuzhou battlefield, there was the last city left, and Liu Bei was struggling to support it. The food and grass in the city were enough to support the army for three months. During this time, if reinforcements came, they would win. In any case, Liu Bei
They were both state herdsmen in Xuzhou. During the period of running Xuzhou, they also won the hearts of many officials. During the period when Xuzhou was besieged, officials continued to send soldiers to rescue them, but they were stopped halfway.
Cao Jun's cavalry were defeated one by one. Different from the cunning of Jizhou Army, the generals who came to the rescue basically came with enthusiasm or were "forced". They were rushed by Cao Jun and fled in all directions. Those who surrendered were not counted.
number.
The situation in Xuzhou was worrying. Liu Bei seemed to have aged much overnight, with strands of white hair appearing on his head. He had not slept for three consecutive days. He thought of General Jia Rong, who had survived many adversities and relied on sparse troops.
, blocked the attack of most of the enemy troops. Why, as a member of the Han clan and having studied hard since childhood, could I not be as good as him?
Thinking of the Xiliang Army, Liu Bei's expression was shocked. He hurriedly ordered his soldiers to collect the excrement and oil from the city, and kept boiling it on the city. The aroma of the oil was accompanied by the stench of the excrement. Many soldiers kept rubbing their noses with their hands.
Flashing forward.
When the coalition forces attacked Hangu Pass, relying on this move, the Xiliang Army caused tens of thousands of coalition soldiers to be attacked. They wailed in the camp all day long and eventually died of the plague. Since they could not successfully defend Xuzhou, Cao Cao
He never expected to get Xuzhou so easily. At this point, Liu Bei had the idea of breaking the pot and breaking it.
Moreover, this kind of injury is difficult to heal. Even if the general suffers such an injury, it will not get better without the careful treatment of a good doctor. Cao's army is no better than the Xiliang army. It has a medical team, and the injured soldiers can be treated quickly. In the Central Plains
, a soldier was injured, and it was just a simple treatment. Life and death depended on their own luck. The princes of the Central Plains would definitely not spend huge amounts of medical expenses on ordinary soldiers. With that kind of money, they could always use it.
Raise a new army.[
Liu Bei had something to rely on. Today's siege battle was quickly ended by Cao Jun. The boiling oil and manure juice made the siege soldiers in coarse cloth suffer a lot. The weather was hot at this time, and the soldiers
You would definitely not want to wear heavy armor and climb a ladder. You would be caught off guard. This attack method has achieved great results.
Late at night, the soldiers who were covered in oil and feces kept wailing in pain, and the voices kept coming and going, making it difficult for Cao Cao to sleep. He didn't expect that Liu Bei would use such a damaging move. Not all princes would be willing to use this move if they knew it.
The words are harmful to Tianhe. If Jia Rong hears these words, he will definitely shake his head and say nonsense. Could it be that the war between the two princes is in compliance with God's will? Once the war starts, the people will suffer misery. If there is really a divine punishment,
The first to die are these princes who talk about their righteousness.
The lights in the military tent were still lit. Today's victory added a lot of smile to Liu Bei's face. As long as he could hold Xuzhou, he would still have a chance to compete with the princes in the world.
"Brother, Cao's army is frustrated at this time, and the defense in the camp must not be tight. How about I lead the army to charge and plunder Cao's camp!" Guan Yu's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened, and he said loudly.
Liu Bei shook his head and said: "Second brother, no, Cao Cao is a man who has experienced many battles. How could he not know how to prevent enemy sneak attacks on the battlefield?"
"Brother, Cao's army has repeatedly attacked, but our army has no ability to counterattack. It must be because of the lack of morale. Why don't we try it once." Guan Yu insisted.
Zhang Fei's favorite thing is to join in this kind of fun, and remembering that he fell into the hands of Cao Cao a few days ago, blazing flames flashed in his eyes: "Brother, what the second brother said is unreasonable."
As if he remembered something, Liu Bei sighed and said, "Okay, I'll just follow my second brother!"
As Guan Yu expected, the defense of Cao Jun's camp was very loose. Under siege by the army, they believed that the defenders in the city had already sealed the city gates, and how could they come out of the city to fight.
Guan Yu led 500 cavalry and suddenly rushed out, causing great chaos in Cao Jun's camp. Guan Yu did not seek to kill the enemy, but ordered his soldiers to continuously set fires. The entire Cao Jun camp was like a gathering of fireflies, dotted with stars.
