Farmer of Shu Han Chapter 738

Chapter 738 Who will eat who?

After crossing the river, the cavalry army of Wei State who came from the right wing discovered that there was a hill that was not too high on the right wing of the Han army.

If it is normal, this hill is not an obstacle.

But at this time, the Han army deployed troops on the hills early.

For Wei Jun Jingqi who did not have bilateral stirrups, it was too difficult to attack on his back.

A general yelled loudly and ordered the cavalry to dismount, ready to try to attack with infantry.

Before the three-piece cavalry suit appeared, the cavalry was often used for both infantry and cavalry.

It's just that cavalry like them are not as well prepared as pure infantry. Many of them don't even have a small buckler.

A wave of arrows rained down from the crossbowmen who emerged from the hills, and the Wei army, who had little protection, screamed and fell to the ground.

The Wei cavalry, who failed to capture the commanding heights on the right wing, had to retreat.

At the same time, under the containment of the frontal Wei army infantry, the left wing also successfully crossed to the west bank.

This lifted Zhang Hua's spirits.

The left flank of the Han army is a large flat area, which is most suitable for cavalry charges.

Liangzhou Dama is rampant in the world.

This remark is not just talking.

Liangzhou iron cavalry, good at using spears, unselected striker, unstoppable.

This is the conclusion made by the discussants when Cao Cao and Ma Chao fought in Guanzhong, which shows the elite of Xiliang iron cavalry.

Feng Yong held up the binoculars and saw the Wei cavalry in the north slowly forming a phalanx, so he quickly asked people to wave their flags.

Zhang Ni, who had been drawing attention to the Zhongjun Order Banner, let out a breath slowly, and ordered: "Turn left, get ready!"

There was a sound of armor rubbing against each other, and the Modao team, who had been sitting and resting, stood up and put on their helmets at the same time.

Under the scorching sun, the iron armor on everyone in the Han and Wei armies was scorching hot, almost scalding people.

The only exception is the soldiers of the Modao Squad. Their iron armor has auxiliary soldiers to help water it to cool down.

Then a series of clashing sounds of weapons sounded.

Since the first battle in Jieting, the Modao team has continued to improve in actual combat.

Soldiers from the Qiang Xiaowei's Mansion patrolled Longyou from time to time and participated in the suppression of the Qianghu chaos. The Modao team must advance in every battle, and it is not aimless.

The current Mo Dao team uses Mo Dao as the main output. For various situations, there are also weapons such as ring swords, spears, hooks and even whistle sticks as auxiliary weapons.

While weapons and protective armor are constantly improving, the combat methods are also becoming more mature.

This is the second time that the Modao team faced the real Wei cavalry after the battle of Jieting, and it was also the best Liangzhou cavalry in the world.

After all the auxiliary soldiers retreated, the Modao team had already lined up.

The drums sounded.

The chiefs followed the drums and ordered: "Come in!"

Soldiers who raise their swords forward must not only be tall, but they must also undergo regular physical strength and endurance training on weekdays.

With the addition of meat supplements from pastures and farms, everyone can be considered a muscular man.

Everyone had cold eyes shining behind their black masks.

"The Modao team faced off for the first time in Jieting against the New Fifth Army of the Wei State Central Army, and among them were the elite tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers from Cao's bandits who ruled the world."

Feng Yong handed the binoculars to Jiang Wei, "Liangzhou iron cavalry and tiger and leopard cavalry can be regarded as the best cavalry in the world. Boyue, do you think Liangzhou iron cavalry is better or tiger and leopard cavalry are better?"

Jiang Wei held up the binoculars and saw the cavalrymen of the Wei army starting to charge. At the same time, on the side of the big man, countless snow-white long knives were raised obliquely, shining dazzlingly under the sun.

The cavalry is like a torrent, and the knife is like a jungle.

The Liangzhou iron cavalry holding a spear slammed into the Mo Dao that was advancing like a wall.

At this moment, Jiang Wei's body tensed up.

The iron cavalry of Xiliang, known for its powerful impact, in front of this heavy infantry phalanx, actually only shook the front two or three rows of fronts, and then even the people and horses were strangled to pieces!

"Boom boom boom!"

The more urgent the drum beating.

"Enter!"

The Mo Dao queue standing behind immediately stepped forward, crossing the front rows, and so on, replenishing in turn.

There is only life and death, there is no retreat.

The blood under the feet did not seep into the ground in time because of too much minced meat. In this weather, it became sticky all of a sudden.

Liangzhou people are fierce and not afraid of death, and Liangzhou iron cavalry is even more powerful.

It's just that no matter how they charge, the Han army's forest of long sword formations is like a city wall made of iron, which makes them fall down again and again, and their heads are broken.

"Junhou, although the general doesn't know which is better, the Liangzhou iron cavalry or the tiger and leopard cavalry, but the general knows that they can only bow their heads in front of the Junhou's Modao team."

After a long time, Jiang Wei put down the binoculars, let out a long breath, turned his head, and looked at Feng Yong with a little inexplicable awe in his eyes.

As more and more Wei troops crossed the river, the frontal battle became more intense.

The heart of returning to the teacher to fight to the death has gained the greatest interpretation at this time.

Many Wei Jun red-eyed and rushed to the Han army's formation recklessly.

A long spear pierced Wei Zu's thigh, and the powerful penetrating force exposed the tip of the gun from behind his thigh. Wei Zu gritted his teeth and swung his knife towards the body of the gun.

There was a "click", the body of the gun was very tough, and it was only cut with a hole.

The shock came from the gun body, and Wei Zu was so painful that he almost fainted. He knew that he would not be spared. Taking advantage of the opponent not pulling the spear in time, he jumped down and hugged the gun body tightly: "Kill the prisoner!"

The comrades around shouted, raised their knives and charged at the Han soldier who was trying to draw out his spear.

The Han soldier was forced to let go of his spear, but after all, he was a step too slow, and the long knife had already slashed at his arm.

With a "shua", blood spurted like a fountain, and the arm that lost its owner fell to the ground.

Han Bing screamed, but luckily someone beside him came to help him block the long knife that was approaching him again, which saved him from being beheaded.

The Wei Army cavalry on the left wing were frustrated at the beginning of their aggressive charge, which did not affect their morale. They retreated, reorganized their formation, and charged in turn.

The array of minced meat piled up even more.

Finally, the cavalry of the Wei Army who suffered heavy losses began to circle around continuously.

Not to mention ordinary cavalry pawns, even cavalry generals have never seen such weird and fierce soldiers.

This kind of soldier seems to be born to restrain cavalry.

No matter how powerful the cavalry is, there is only one end in front of it: all the horses are destroyed.

"With such infantry, why should the cavalry be afraid?"

Jiang Wei murmured.

"Not necessarily." Feng Yong said beside him, "In this world, where there is yin, there must be yang, and where there is spear, there must be shield."

"The cavalry has an advantage in the face of infantry, but this kind of sudden cavalry has no way to deal with this kind of infantry."

Jiang Wei couldn't believe it: "There are cavalry troops in the world who can defeat such infantry?"

Feng Yong nodded: "Yes."

Fighting head-on, light cavalry has no advantage over heavy infantry.

But if it is replaced with armor riding equipment, it may not be necessary.

Whether it was the Southern and Northern Dynasties when the armored riding gear began to rise, or the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and even the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the armored riding gear occupied an extremely important strategic position.

This can be confirmed from literature and unearthed cultural relics.

Unlike what some people think, the Tang Dynasty and Yuan Meng only focused on light cavalry.

Of course, due to different battlefields, armored riding equipment may also become armored cavalry, that is, people wear armor, but horses do not wear armor.

Armored riding equipment will really withdraw from the battlefield until the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Because of the emergence of firearms, the form of warfare has changed.

Datang's Modao team is invincible, that's because it basically faces the light cavalry of the grassland people.

At the same time, Datang itself also has a large number of cavalry to cooperate with the Modao team.

Heavy infantry without cavalry support will have little advantage when facing armored riding equipment.

Even in the face of the enemy's light cavalry and heavy cavalry cooperating to attack, most of the time they can only end up with hatred.

At this time, armored riding equipment has not yet appeared, and it may appear, but in terms of the current world, no one can afford it in the Han, Wei, Wu and Three Kingdoms.

Because this thing is equivalent to burning gold.

As far as the Han, Wei and Wu Three Kingdoms are concerned, which one is not bitter haha?

Just maintaining a ten to one conscription rate is enough to make people breathless.

Of course, the life of the Han people may be a little bit better than that of the other two countries.

So as long as the armored riding equipment does not appear, the Modao team will be a nightmare for cavalry.

Jiang Wei really wanted to know what kind of cavalry could defeat the Modao team, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to ask.

What if this Feng Wenhe misunderstood himself and said that he wanted to defeat the Modao team in his hands?

Feng Yong saw Jiang Wei's appearance, but he took the initiative to say, "There is no such cavalry in the world today. If there is a chance in the future, Boyue may not have the opportunity to see it."

The two were talking, and saw the Wei cavalry army on the left began to circle back, as if they wanted to find the weak point of the Han army formation.

"Your Majesty!"

Jiang Wei looked at it and quickly reminded him.

Feng Yong took the binoculars, looked in the direction Jiang Wei was pointing, and found Wei Jun's intention. After putting down the binoculars, he nodded to Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei saluted and hurried off the platform.

After a while, the tiger infantry who had been staying behind quickly moved.

The cavalry army of the Wei army circled a large circle, and then found the tiger infantry army waiting in full battle.

I don't know what the cavalry general of the Wei Army thinks. It may be that he was afraid of being killed by the Modao team, or it may be that he found out that the Tiger Army was prepared, which made him feel weird.

So the cavalry of the Wei army walked around in front of the tiger infantry several times, but they didn't charge.

The sound of ringing gold from the rear relieved the embarrassment of the Wei cavalry.

The cavalry general breathed a sigh of relief, and led the cavalry back to the east bank in a hurry.

The Wei army left a pile of corpses and many groaning wounded soldiers on the west bank.

Yu led the men, chased them for a while, and didn't stop until the water's edge.

"Why did Thief Cao suddenly retreat?"

From the desperate appearance at the beginning to the sudden retreat now, Feng Yong was a little puzzled.

"It doesn't look like they are powerless to attack, I thought they would hold on for another hour!"

Jiang Wei, who ran to the rear and stared at the cavalry of the Wei army for a long time, rushed back to the commander-in-chief's flag after receiving the news of Cao's retreat, and obeyed orders to support the battalions in front at any time.

When he arrived, he happened to hear what Feng Yong said, so he guessed: "The general thinks it might be because the sun is westward?"

"Um?"

Feng Yong couldn't understand Jiang Wei's words.

"Please look, my lord." Jiang Wei turned around, facing the west, and pointed to the sun, "Cao thief is facing the west sun, and his eyes seem to be boundless. Isn't the time unfavorable?"

Feng Yong followed Jiang Wei and turned around, just in time for the sunlight to shine into his eyes, making him squint his eyes involuntarily, and set up an arbor with his hands.

"The time and place are right and the people are harmonious, and the ancients were honest and never deceived me!" Feng Yong suddenly looked at Jiang Wei and praised, "Bo Yue is just as the prime minister said, he is sensitive to military affairs and has a talent for military strategy."

Jiang Wei was a little embarrassed, and said modestly, "Your Majesty is overwhelmed. When this last general just led the army to the north, the sun dazzled his eyes, so I just remembered it."

"It was the first time that Bo Yue led an army to face the enemy, and it was already extremely rare to be able to change like this."

Feng Junhou still did not hesitate to praise himself.

Jiang Wei became even more embarrassed, but he still had one thing in mind, "Your Majesty, when the sun is westward, it is beneficial to us. But when the sun rises tomorrow, I am afraid it will be our turn to be at a disadvantage. "

Feng Yong was taken aback, he hadn't thought of this for a while.

I only heard Jiang Wei continue to say, "Your Majesty, the leader of Cao's bandit opposite, who can realize this early, must be a person who knows how to fight."

"From the point of view of the general, he will definitely launch an attack when the sun rises tomorrow, and the prince must guard against it."

Feng Yong frowned, turned and looked to the other side.

I saw that the opposite side had already begun to gather soldiers and horses, and it seemed that they were indeed preparing to withdraw troops.

Waiting until the second day, seeing that the sun had just risen, the Wei army began to gather.

Zhang Hua turned his back to the Han army, and waited until the sun rose slowly, and the sunlight shone into his eyes, making him squint his eyes involuntarily.

With a smile on his face, he began to order the drums.

Wei Jun repeated yesterday's process again, crossing the river, shooting arrows...

It's just that when Wei Jun rushed to the other side, he saw a piece of green.

Every Han soldier wears a green hat made of green leaves and branches on his head, which is equivalent to adding a hat brim.

The Han army, who should have been dazzled by the sun, was not affected by the sun at all under the protection of the green hats.

The arrows of the Han army are still so dense, the tip of the gun is still so accurate, and the posture of holding a knife to chop people is still so vigorous...

Soon a returning general passed the news to Zhang Hua.

Zhang Hua, who was standing on the shore, listened, his expression froze at first, then began to turn blue, then white, and finally green...

Taking a last staggered step, he almost fell into the water.

"Prefect be careful!"

Fortunately, the general who came to report had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and quickly supported him.

Zhang Hua covered his chest, and smiled miserably: "I thought I could use the time, but I didn't expect that the opponent had already seen through my plan."

"Xiao Wenhe, Xiao Wenhe, really lives up to its reputation!"

Thinking about being robbed of food and grass, and being blocked here by the other party, even the tricks I came up with temporarily were all in the other party's calculations.

It turns out that I have been played by the opponent all the time.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hua was immediately disheartened: Feng Yong, who can defeat Zhang Xi and is known for his strategy as Xiaowenhe, is he a simple person?

"The green hat Junhou came up with is really wonderful!"

Jiang Wei also wore green on his head, experienced the effect for himself, and found that the sunlight was really blocked, and his face burst into excitement.

He looked at Feng Yong who didn't even wear a helmet, "Don't you try wearing it, Junhou?"

Feng Junhou coughed, "Bo Yue, I won't try it, and I won't go into battle myself, so I don't need to wear this."

At the same time, I rejoice in my heart. Fortunately, the environment in this era is beautiful and the vegetation is lush!

At this time, several riders suddenly ran back to the camp from the rear.

"Your Majesty, the Cao Bandit Jincheng reinforcements have arrived!" Even though the sun was still in the east, the night hunters of the Dark Night Camp were already sweating profusely, gasping for breath, "The distance from here is no more than ten miles."

Feng Yong finally looked serious: "Cavalry?"

"Yes, all cavalry!"

"how many people?"

"still not clear."

Feng Yong looked at Zhang Yuan who was standing on the side, "Pass it to the Dark Night Camp, and let them find a way to find out the number of Jincheng who came to rescue Cao thief!"

"No!"

Zhang Yuan hurried down.

"Boyo, how are you preparing for the trench barriers behind the camp?"

Feng Yong asked.

"The civil servants and auxiliary soldiers have worked hard in the past two days, and it has barely taken shape."

Jiang Wei answered quickly.

Feng Yong nodded, "That's good. Release all the captured peasants and auxiliary soldiers, drive them south along this current, and let them hide in the mountains."

"Cao's thieves attacked back and forth. It is a hidden danger to keep these civilian husbands and auxiliary soldiers."

He looked at Jiang Wei, paused every word, and said, "Boyue, this rear area is all handed over to your tiger infantry. I don't have any extra battalion on hand."

"If you can hold it, our army will be safe, but if you can't hold it, the whole army will be wiped out."

Jiang Wei clasped his fists heavily, "Don't worry, my lord!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went down.

Feng Yong looked to the east again, with deep eyes: "Wei Yan, Wei Yan, I hope you can really be worthy of the late emperor's eyes, and don't let me down!"

The road of ten miles is not very far for the cavalry without stinging horsepower.

Seeing the smoke rising from the west, Feng Yong finally couldn't help but slap himself.

Damn it, I stood on such a high Longguan last year and swore that I would never leave the back road to others, so why don't I have a long memory?

I'm stuck in the mountain pass, threatening the opponent's food road and retreat, isn't it over? If you don't want to eat the other party in one go, what are you doing?

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!

Feng Langjun, a gentleman with both ability and political integrity, began to review himself.
