Chapter 358 The battle formation of the elite regiment
Jizhou, Guangzong.
"Xiang Ji! Do you dare to fight against the solitary king's men!?"
Yes, after the defeat of the general, Lu Bu learned from the pain and decided to have a battle of armor with Xiang Ji.
As for why he didn't go to Xiang Yu in person to challenge him?
The two countries are still in the exploratory stage, and both Lu Bu and Xiang Ji are deterrents.
If the two of them went to fight one-on-one now, they would win, but if they lost, they wouldn't even have to fight this battle, and their morale would fall to the bottom.
You must know that both Lu Bu and Xiang Ji are invincible in their country, and they are all gods in the hearts of their soldiers.
If they saw with their own eyes the defeat of the Shen clan in their minds, it would be a huge blow to these soldiers.
Therefore, without complete assurance, Lu Bu would never challenge Xiang Ji easily.
"Okay, if you want to fight, I will fight!
Tell me, how to fight?"
Xiang Ji, who stood at the top of the city, looked at the Xiliang army below and sneered.
Humph, I originally said that I would just kill you for a few days before launching a general attack, but now I am worried about how to kill your morale, so I took the initiative to send you here?
Yes, Xiang Ji was still discussing with Pang Tong and others how to continue to weaken the morale of the Xiliang army.
But I never thought that this early in the morning, just before dawn, Lu Bu would come to my door.
A battle formation? It's nothing more than a fight involving tens of thousands of people from one family. With the presence of Cang Longqi and Xiang's army, Xiang Ji really isn't afraid of Lu Bu.
"Good! As expected of King Xiang Ji of Chu, he is so courageous!
Today you and I will fight in two formations. One is a cavalry battle. Each side has three thousand cavalry, fighting each other to the death!
The other formation is an infantry battle formation, with five thousand infantrymen on each side, and the rules are exactly the same as the cavalry battle formation."
Lu Bu was very excited when Xiang Ji agreed without hesitation.
Haha, Xiang Ji, now you have fallen into my trap.
You know, the reason why Lu Bu took the initiative to find Xiang Ji to fight despite knowing that Chu had Cang Longqi was because he also had an elite cavalry and infantry team under his command.
As for the infantry, it's easy to guess. They are naturally the trapped camp led by Gao Shun.
And its cavalry is Lu Bu's personal guard cavalry, Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!
Yes, Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry! This cavalry was not established after Lu Bu occupied Bingzhou.
This cavalry is an elite personal guard unit formed when Lu Bu followed Ding Yuan.
You know, Lu Bu's hometown is in Jiuyuan, Bingzhou.
Then the Dingyuan territory he followed was also in Bingzhou.
The cavalry force established by Lu Bu can be said to have gone through numerous battles, both large and small. It was purely trained in blood and fire.
Afterwards, Lu Bu defected to Dong Zhuo, and his bodyguard, Langqi, naturally followed him all the way.
Later, he followed Lu Bu in conquering the south and the north until he established the Qin State to this day.
Because this cavalry was too elite, the number was never expanded and remained at the standard of three thousand.
Even generals such as Hao Meng and Hou Cheng stood out from the wolf riders.
From this, we can know what the combat effectiveness of this wolf cavalry is.
If Xiang Ji's Canglong Cavalry is an elite cavalry force composed of a hundred generals, then Lu Bu's Wolf Cavalry is an elite troop composed of a thousand generals.
This is also the reason why Lu Bu asked Tong Xiang to fight in battle.
If it is a large-scale cavalry confrontation, the smaller number of wolf cavalry may still suffer against the blue dragon cavalry.
But if it’s a battle of the same number, hey, Xiang Ji, this time I will get back everything I lost before!
Xiang Ji, who was standing at the top of the city, heard the conditions proposed by Lu Bu and was naturally ready to agree without thinking.
But at this moment, the surrendered general Yan Xing stood up.
"Overlord! No, Overlord! You can't agree to them!
This Lu Bu is setting a trap for you!"
???
What kind of a joke? A trap? Isn't it a fighting formation? If he dares to cheat in it, won't he be afraid of the ridicule of the people in the world? Aren't he afraid that the morale of his soldiers will be plummeted?
After hearing Yan Xing's words, Xiang Ji expressed that he was a little confused.
With the same number of soldiers and armors fighting, where is the trap? Is there something wrong with Yan Xing?
"Overlord! Lu Bu has an elite cavalry under his command, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!
Even Hou Cheng and others are from among the wolf cavalry!"
Yan Xing became anxious when he saw Xiang Ji's disbelieving look.
That's the most invincible wolf cavalry in the northern and western regions of the desert!
You know, whether it is the Southern Huns or the Qiang people in the Western Regions, if anyone hears the wolf cavalry coming, they will immediately flee thousands of miles away.
All those who did not believe in evil and the fighting power of the wolf cavalry were all turned into a handful of loess.
Now that Yan Xing has surrendered to the Chu State, he naturally does not want the Chu State to be fooled and lose his troops here.
You know, in this era, it's understandable if you surrender once.
But if you find something wrong after surrendering and then surrender to others, your reputation will be completely ruined, and basically no one will dare to hire you anymore.
"What did you say? Wolf Cavalry? All the generals under Lu Bu's command are from the Wolf Cavalry?"
Xiang Ji was really shocked when he heard Yan Xing's words.
Unexpectedly, there are such elite people under Lu Bu's command?
No wonder, no wonder.
Let me tell you, this guy knows that I have a powerful being like Cang Longqi under my command, but he still dares to challenge me.
It turns out that the backhand is here.
Basically at this point, Xiang Ji understood it in his heart.
As for the infantry, Lu Bu was trapped in the camp, so he was naturally very confident in fighting Xiang Yu.
In this regard, Xiang Ji was not afraid of him at all. After all, after so many years of fighting, although the overall combat effectiveness of the Xiang family army was not particularly outstanding.
However, if only 5,000 people are selected, an absolutely elite team can still be selected.
As for the cavalry, Xiang Ji originally thought that Lu Bu was just adding more cavalry because he was afraid that Xiang Ji would not agree with the infantry fighting formation.
Unexpectedly, the real trap lies here.
But, so what?
You are an elite wolf rider in Bingzhou. Are we, the blue dragon riders, afraid of you?
Without a fight, who knows who is more powerful?
Xiang Ji still has great confidence in the Canglong Cavalry under his command.
"Very good, Yan Xing, your loyalty is known to the lonely king."
After signaling to Yan Xing who looked anxious, Xiang Ji turned and looked at Lu Bu who was waiting for his reply below the city.
"Lu Bu, I agree to your terms, Prince Gu!
Tell me, who should fight first, the infantry or the cavalry?"
Humph, you want to trick me? This time I will let you lose your wife and your troops!
Do you really think you have a backup plan? Cavalry vs. cavalry, I will let you know today, what is the best cavalry in the world!
Yes, Xiang Yu didn't panic at all against Wolf Cavalry. Cang Long Cavalry also had its own secret weapon!
