When two armies confront each other, victory or defeat is often decided in an instant.
Although the coalition forces that defeated Dong Zhuo had many soldiers and generals, there was no tacit understanding and cooperation among them, and they were chaotic and unsystematic.
Zhang Liao saw this flaw keenly and took advantage of it decisively.
With an unparalleled dance, he broke through the obstruction of the rain of arrows and charged into the coalition army.
The sword was swung, and immediately the people fell on their backs, and the coalition's forward was immediately in chaos.
To be honest, although Zhang Liao's martial arts is very strong, it is nothing compared to thousands of troops. If the person in charge of the vanguard is the elite of the former Xiyuan Army, they can attack him in a few or two with random spears.
Tie up like a hedgehog, but unfortunately the vanguard of this battle is not the old Xiyuan tribe, but the useless princes such as Wang Kuangqiao and Mao who failed to shine last time!
Ever since Cheng Peng warmed the wine and beheaded the generals, these princes learned that Cheng Peng was just an ordinary Yamen general. They suddenly felt that the useless "generals" under their command were so brave that it was easy to chop Lu Bu or Dong Zhuo.
They all clamored to be the vanguard. Yuan Shao was really upset by their quarrel and thought that nothing would happen if he was in the middle to support him, so he gave up the vanguard position to them...
So they were cut down by the grass.
First, Zhang Liao wielded his sword to cut, then the trapped camp rushed in and cut randomly, and finally, the remaining seven generals under Lu Bu led their cavalry to rush over to surround and cut...
As a result, the armies of those princes immediately fell into chaos. Tens of thousands of troops instantly began Brownian motion, and the speed of collapse was breathtaking.
What's even more tragic is that because these idiots are so chaotic, the few elite troops who want to rush to the rescue - such as Gongsun Zan and Sun Jian - can't get to the front.
So everyone had to watch helplessly as these rookies were cut down a hundred times.
Not only that, as the elite soldiers and generals under Lu Bu gradually pressed forward, the armies of the princes were so frightened that they actually turned around and attacked the Chinese army!
If Yuan Shao hadn't drawn his sword in anger and shouted, "A man is willing to fight to the death, how can he enter the wall and hope to survive!" Together with Cao Cao, who was also full of anger, Sun Jian and others personally led their elite troops to charge forward and suppress Zhang Liao and others.
People, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of troops can be defeated in one battle!
Even so, they had to retreat twenty miles, and then they gathered up the losers who had changed their jobs and became frightened birds, and threw them behind to serve as heavy troops.
"Wang Kuang, that's all. Qiao Yanzhou, you are a descendant of Taiwei Qiao Gong's clan. How could you make such a mistake?" When taking inventory of the battle that night, Yuan Shao looked at the embarrassed Qiao Mao and thought of his death in the rebellion.
Wang Kuang, who even had his head cut off by Zhang Liao, rolled his eyes in anger, "What did you two say at the beginning? You said that you can definitely defeat the enemy in one fell swoop... I don't ask you to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. After all, when you are defeated, Teng Teng
Can you come up with a place for us to rescue?"
Yuan Shao's roar continued for half an hour. Finally, his friend Cao Cao persuaded him repeatedly and finally calmed down.
"How could one person disrupt your military formation!!! How could he run away in a daze without even looking at the road!!!"
Listening to the roar from the Chinese army's tent, Cheng Peng and others could only smile bitterly.
"Yuan Shao must be regretting it now." Wen De said, "Although I know that most of the eighteen princes are just foils, who would have thought that they are such useless people? This is really 'not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but afraid of teammates who are like pigs'
'ah!"
"Lü Bu hasn't even appeared yet. Just Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and the eight talented generals fell into the camp... and they killed us until we retreated twenty miles..." Li Wei muttered dullly, "Since the beginning of the game, we haven't fought yet.
It’s been such a depressing battle!”
When they saw the vanguard's formation in chaos, they wanted to rush to rescue them. Unexpectedly, Qiao Mao and Wang Kuang failed to live up to their expectations. Before even Cheng Peng, who was riding a thousand-mile horse, had time to rush over, the vanguard collapsed completely.
When encountering this kind of thing, what else can you do besides being speechless?
"Tomorrow... it will probably be our turn to be the vanguard of the right army in Xiyuan." Xu Tu pondered for a moment and said, "Not only can we not lose, we must also win beautifully to prevent Lu Bu from coming out to cause trouble - do you have any suggestions?"
"You are responsible for coming up with ideas, and we are responsible for executing them." Seeing that Xu Tu seemed to lack confidence, Cheng Peng smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You are our military advisor, show some confidence!"
"I can only give out ideas, not lead troops to fight..."
Leading troops to fight? Cheng Peng was stunned for a moment, smacked his head, and laughed dumbly.
"That's right! When it comes to leading troops to fight, I have a powerful helper here!"
As he spoke, he took out a jade tablet.
White mist rose, and Xu Shiji, a famous young general in military uniform, appeared in the military camp.
"Although Xiao Xu's fighting ability is a bit weak, when it comes to fighting ability, the famous generals in Dynasty Warriors are definitely not good enough!"
Ever since he became Cheng Peng's subordinate, Xu Shiji has been hidden away - to be precise, Cheng Peng himself, who is accustomed to using force to solve problems, has forgotten that he has two subordinates, Xu Shiji and Shen Luoyan - because their force is not worth much.
High, and the mounted combat is even worse.
But now they have to lead troops to fight, and all of them combined are not as good as Xu Shiji, who is at the level of a famous general!
Xu Shiji quickly adapted to the new environment. He didn't even have any questions about traveling through time and space, jumping from the end of the Sui Dynasty to the end of the Han Dynasty - after all, it was just a game - and quickly threw himself into his new work.
Under his command, the players in the right army who led the engineering troops gathered their troops and manufactured various siege equipment.
The remaining troops were divided one by one by Xu Shiji according to different types of troops, and formed a four-level military formation at the front and back. This military formation used long spears to meet the enemy, with short soldiers in the center, leaving gaps for rapid firing of bows and crossbows, and then retreating.
The cavalry is arranged on both wings, with the right wing being the elite and the left wing being slightly worse...
"Since ancient times, the left has been respected. Among Lu Bu's troops, the left-wing cavalry must be the most powerful." When everyone asked about the reason for the formation, Xu Shiji said, "My lord is brave and unparalleled, and the generals are naturally by no means weak. The elite of our army will never
We lost to the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry! In this case, we must give them a head-on blow and knock down their momentum!"
"Why not use the method of 'Tian Ji horse racing'?" Li Wei, a well-educated otaku, asked curiously, "The upper fours versus the middle fours, the middle fours versus the lower fours, the lower fours versus the upper fours... isn't it more efficient?"
"The Bingzhou Army was greatly influenced by the barbarians and they were brutal and brutal. If they were to show their momentum, I'm afraid there would be some trouble." Xu Shiji said, "If you want to subdue a barbaric person, you have to give him a head-on blow - it's the same as taming an animal.
The truth is, you have to make the beast afraid of you first, and then you can talk about other things."
Everyone suddenly realized.
So the next morning, Yuan Shao was surprised to see that the right army, which had always been messy, actually arranged a neat formation with clear layers and was ready to fight.
"I can't believe it! General Chunyu actually has such abilities!" Sun Jian and Gongsun Zan, who are well versed in military affairs, exclaimed together, "Such a military formation is really watertight. I admire you! I admire you!"
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were laughing and joking, but they didn't take it seriously at the same time.
Chunyu Qiong knows how to arrange troops? If you tell the rest of the Xiyuan Army this, it will make everyone laugh!
The only thing that guy with a veteran background knows is "Everyone, come with me!", "Today's situation is just a matter of death!" etc. If you expect him to know how to march and form a formation, you might as well expect Lu Bu to take a swing at Dong Zhuo because he doesn't like it.
Fang Tian drew a halberd, skewered the fat pig and threw it on the fire to make a hanging pork!
"General Chunyu...when did he learn how to use troops?" When the princes returned to their camps, Cao Cao asked curiously, "It's true that after three days of separation, the soldiers will look at each other with admiration!"
"I bet he doesn't even know it himself!" Yuan Shao curled his lips and turned to sneer, "I also bet his eyes are dark right now and he can't understand the power of this formation at all!"
Cao Cao laughed.
"But someone has to give him some advice."
"After all, the Right Army is the sum total of the other six armies in Xiyuan except for you and me. There may not be no talents among them." Yuan Shao laughed for a while, then corrected his attitude and said seriously, "As Han Feizi said, you don't have to be good at government affairs.
As long as he knows how to make good use of others, he can listen to other people's advice and leave the marching formation to those who are good at it. This is the right way to be a general."
[Perhaps... after conquering Dong Zhuo, it’s time to let this veteran lead an army...]
Yuan Shao was thinking this in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Even if you are a good friend, there is no need to talk about everything.
After a while, the morning fog gradually dissipated, and Lu Bu's army once again turned on and off to face the enemy, forming exactly the same formation as yesterday.
"I am Zhang Wenyuan of Yanmen, who will fight with me?"
"Does he think we are fools?" Looking at Zhang Liao who was showing off his power in front of the battle, Yuan Shao sneered again. Different from the narrow and kind smile when he laughed at Chun Yuqiong just now, his smile was cold and fierce at this moment, "A man from Yanmenguan is a sheep herder.
Wild boy, do you know how to fight? This time, a certain family will let you see what real 'war' is like!"
"Set up the military flag of Xiyuan and let the right army attack!"
Following this order, a desolate trumpet sound sounded among the coalition forces.
"Jian", "Yuan", "Cao", "Bao", "Zhao", "Xia", "Feng", "Chunyu", eight tattered purple-black military flags were raised among the coalition forces.
At the same time, the originally clear sky turned into blood-like red.
"Three months ago, our Xiyuan Army suffered a disastrous defeat." Yuan Shao's figure appeared in the air, and his voice echoed over the military camp, "Five captains and 20,000 soldiers were all lost outside Luoyang City.
Even if the alien warriors tried their best, they could only save these eight military flags in the end."
"These eight flags are badly worn because they have experienced unbearable defeats; the originally plain military flags turned purple and black because they were soaked in the blood of the soldiers." At this point, his voice gradually became lower,
"Whenever he thinks of that deadly battle, Yuan often beats his chest with hatred, wishing that he had died for the Han together with all the heroes!"
"But!" His voice changed and his tone became louder, "The Xiyuan Army has not fallen! Our military flag is still there! Our soldiers are still there!"
"Do you all remember how you sacrificed your lives and defeated the Xiliang army again and again?"
"You gentlemen, do you remember how you all risked your own lives to kill each of Dong's generals?"
"Do you all remember how you used your body as a shield to block the charge of Bingzhou's new army and retreated into Luoyang while protecting the military flag?"
"That night, the late emperor, who was already seriously ill, was filled with anger and unfortunately passed away. However, when he was dying, he still told us to work together to help the great man!"
"Now is the time for us to demand back our blood debt from the enemy!"
"Now is the time for us to fulfill our promise to the late Emperor!"
"Lieutenant Yuan Benchu of the Xiyuan Army Central Military Academy hereby orders——"
