Chapter 276: Wanting to be the best hero in Shanxi ended up being a joke
Over here, fighting is going on in Xiangfan battlefield.
The knights of Cao's army attacking from the flank excitedly discovered that the range of the repeating crossbow was indeed only thirty steps, and the formation of sidecars could not wrap up the entire enemy's formation, which meant that the flanks were unprotected.
They were extremely excited and launched a surprise attack from the flank.
But then, they discovered that on the flank... there was something more terrifying than a sidecar.
It was a beam of light, a row of Guan soldiers, turning around at the same time, and then a beam of dazzling light shot from their bodies.
This light…
It took away their vision in an instant, leaving only darkness in their eyes!
"ah--"
A large number of horses lost their front hooves, and the whole cavalry team fell on their backs.
…
Over there, Jiangxia, Anlu City.
The inventory has been completed, and Zhuge Ke in the government office is eloquently reporting the battle report to Guan Lin, "Eight thousand enemies were killed, and most of them were trampled to death by the enemy troops when they fled. Three thousand people were captured...and the baggage."
, the horses are still being counted.”
"Let go of the old rules!" Guan Lin waved his hand, "Each prisoner will be given a meal and some money. Those who are willing to return to their hometown will be sent to the waterway. Those who are willing to return to the enemy camp can be released directly.
!”
"Why are we released again..." Zhang Xingcai was confused, "Last time we released a dozen people, but this time we released thousands of people. If we release them all, then next time we meet on the battlefield, they don't know how many of us they will kill."
Soldier...my father always said that women should not be kind on the battlefield!"
Zhang Xingcai's logic is the same as that of her father Zhang Fei.
Black is black, white is white, there is no middle ground, and it is impossible to let the prisoners go... Even if it were Zhang Fei, not only would he not let go, but he would punish the prisoners severely.
Guan Lin smiled and explained to Zhang Xingcai, "The so-called 'prosperity means the people suffer, and death means the people suffer'. Fighting on the battlefield is a war between princes. The people are soldiers just to eat food. In order to survive, they are forced to fight."
Are you forced to participate in this war? What's your fault?"
Having said this, Guan Lin paused for a moment, and his words became more serious: "What's more, when the two armies are fighting, each has his own master. No matter who the soldiers are, they are the same. They dare not not go all out and fight with their lives. The killings on the battlefield are indeed
You can't be cruel, but... after the war, that's a completely new problem. We captured these Cao Jun soldiers. If they can't go back, their wives will be drafted and they will be forced to remarry..."
At this point, Zhang Xingcai interrupted, "Isn't that just right? If their wives are forced to remarry, then they will share the same hatred with us and fight against Cao Cao... and they will join us!"
"Wrong!" Guan Lin shook his head and said, "When more than 9,000 Jiangxia soldiers were captured, Cao Wei had not yet issued a widow order, so as soon as the widow order came out, his wife and daughter were drafted, and they all shared the same hatred for the enemy! But now, the situation is different.
Well, Cao Cao’s order to levy widows has been issued, and everyone in the world knows about it!”
"If we deliberately capture them again and neither deal with them nor release them, then we will not share the same hatred with the enemy, but will be resented by them. It will appear that we are very scheming... It will appear that we are narrow-minded, and it will even affect those who surrendered to us before.
Soldiers, from this point of view, it is better to put them all back in order to win the hearts and minds of the people...The only thing that can defeat Cao Cao is the hearts of the people!"
"Then..." Although Zhang Xingcai thought it was reasonable, he still asked: "Then Cao Jun will be more confident. Anyway, it will be fine if he can't defeat him and surrender, and he will be released in the end..."
As soon as these words came out, Guan Lin and Zhuge Ke laughed at the same time.
Zhuge Ke explained for Guan Lin: "If one day, Cao Wei's soldiers can have such an idea, then Mr. Yunqi, Mr. Guan, and Mr. Liu Huang will be happy to see it come true!"
"That's right." Guan Lin nodded...
At this time, Zhang Xingcai scratched her head and couldn't understand more and more. She felt...she was redundant here.
She even muttered in her heart:
——"Then shall I go?"
At this time, Guan Lin gave his final instructions.
"Yuan Xun, just do as I say, let them have enough to eat, and then release them all, and distribute some coins and cloth to those who go home!"
Zhuge Ke handed over his hand and quickly went to make arrangements.
Not long after, a few more wisps of smoke appeared in the sky above Anlu City, and the aroma of the stew filled the air for a while.
Lu Su and a few of his guards were wandering around the city, and saw several Wei army prisoners sitting on the ground from a distance, surrounding a pot of meat, wolfing down the food.
These personal guards of Soochow whispered dissatisfiedly: "This Fourth Young Master Guan is really good at giving meat to the prisoners."
"More than that?" Another guard said indignantly, "After finally catching them, they gave us back money, food, and cloth... We were not afraid, so they turned around and returned to Cao's camp, and then turned towards us with weapons?
Sigh... there is no reason to let someone go so easily."
Lu Su remained silent, walked to these prisoners, and looked at them calmly.
The prisoner had meat in his mouth and looked at Lu Su, suddenly afraid to eat.
There was a hint of smile in Lu Su's indifferent expression, "I smell the fragrance, so I won't delay your eating. Come on, eat it. After that, there's still..."
At this time, a prisoner with relatively low tears fell to his knees with a "snap" sound.
He sobbed: "I...I can't see Grandmaster Guan, so I can only kowtow to the master. I hope that the master will bring this gratitude to Grandmaster Guan!"
As he spoke, the prisoner kowtowed directly to Lu Su, sobbing while kowtowing.
"I...I am a humble prisoner, but...but when I said I wanted to go home, Master Guan not only wanted to let me go, but also rewarded me with five bolts of silk and asked me to go back and make good clothes for my wife. He...
He said... that on the battlefield everyone has his own master, and we have to fight for our lives, but as long as the prisoners are captured, they will be released and let us go back... otherwise... otherwise we will have no wives... I... I... I actually went against such a great person.
, I am really... really worse than a pig or a dog!"
The prisoner's tears were so low that he started crying again while talking.
Lu Su helped him up, "Stop crying, eat quickly. After eating, go to the silk storehouse and pick up five pounds of silk... Mr. Yun Qi is right. It's not easy to go back, so you have to bring something for your wife."
no?"
The prisoner was still sobbing, but he kept saying: "Thank you, Governor Guan... Thank you, Governor Guan! If my wife hadn't been in the Central Plains, my life... would have been given to him!"
Lu Su shouted, "Get him another bowl and let him eat more!"
After saying that, Lu Su stood up, took a deep breath, and looked in the direction of the government office with complex eyes.
I couldn't help but murmur:
"Learning martial arts can't save a big man, but killing one's heart... can save a big man!"
"Guan Lin, Guan Lin, how can you see so far?"
…
…
Can optics in physics... change the world?
It's still unknown now.
But at least, it has completely changed the Xiangfan battlefield.
At this moment, Xu Huang and his troops are suffering an extremely painful, difficult, and hopeless war...
There is no hope at all!
actually…
In order to compete with Guan Yu this time, Xu Huang made extremely detailed preparations.
This is why he was the first to receive the mission of Cao Cao's southern expedition, but he was the last general to go out on the Xiangfan, Jiangxia, and Shouchun lines.
During this time, Xu Huang was training the Yongliang soldiers...
How to break the sidecar formation, how to break the serial crossbow...
He asked countless surviving tiger and leopard warriors, as well as the soldiers who experienced the "Funiu Valley" battle and escaped back to Xiangfan...
With the support of a large amount of information, Xu Huang even built a simple sidecar.
Then... it was deduced that the only weakness of the sidecar formation is that it relies too much on terrain. If it is in a long and narrow terrain, the sidecar formation can play its greatest role, similar to Taniguchi.
But if you want to use chariots to surround tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on the plains, this is simply impossible.
So...the array of sidecars can only block the front.
The weak point is that the cavalry can insert diagonally into the side and attack from behind, which can give a fatal blow to the sidecar formation...
And...Liannu.
The maximum range of a repeating crossbow is only more than thirty steps. If you master this weakness, it will be easy to deal with... You only need to push the general formation to the front and let the bows and arrows with a range of two hundred steps shoot in an arc towards the center of the car formation...
The chariot array and the crossbow array will all be destroyed immediately.
Xu Huang has always been a cautious person...
What's more, the opponent he faced this time was Guan Yu, a fellow from Hedong.
Therefore, after determining the general tactics, he practiced it repeatedly and even formulated a second plan, using a wooden board to allow the cavalry to jump over the side carriage through the inclined wooden board and jump into the enemy's army.
Array.
Xu Huang even prepared a third plan. He specially prepared a suicide squad, full of fish oil and combustibles. As long as they rushed to the car formation and shot down the fire arrows... it would be a fire, enough to kill
Guan Yu's chariot array was completely destroyed.
Before the war, love comes, let's go back to chat!
But once the fight starts, Xu Huang will do his best...
certainly…
Although Cao Cao gave him the task of holding back Guan Yu.
But it is obvious that Xu Huang has some thoughts when facing this "old friend"...
The battle for the number one hero in Shanxi? Why are you, Guan Yu, and Zhang Wenyuan fighting?
Isn’t Xu Huang from Shanxi?
It's just that Xu Huang's three plans to defeat Guan Yu...the ideal is extremely full...
But the reality is very skinny.
The difference between masters' moves is just a hair's breadth, not a thousand miles away, let alone top masters like Guan Yu and Xu Huang who command troops.
Xu Huang's tactics are enough to defeat the sidecar formation, the crossbow formation...
But in fact, Guan Yu had no intention of using this at all!
When the thousand soldiers on the outermost flank of the Guan Family Army, all wearing bright light armor, turned around to face the attacking enemy knights.
The long-lasting blinding effect caused by the breast protection mirror instantly reversed the original battle situation.
When Cao Junxiao's horse at the front was knocked down by the bright light, the cavalry behind him had no time or space to react...
The entire cavalry behind quickly trampled the knight who fell to the ground in front...
Then they were also knocked down by the bright light.
quick!
too fast!
As they approached, rows of cavalry fell to the ground, were trampled by horses, and lost their lives...it just happened in an instant!
Things like this are happening continuously and continuously!
When the Guan Army's bows and arrows were about to fall from the sky, these knights who were lucky enough to survive the trampling of the horses' hooves just opened their eyes... and saw besides the bright light... arrows all over the sky!
When arrows cannot be blocked due to "blindness"... there is only one ending, thousands of arrows pierce the heart... and pass through the chest!
It can be said that Cao Cao's entire army of thousands of cavalry, which attacked from both wings, did not encounter the enemy at all and was completely destroyed.
This is the side battlefield!
The same is true on the frontal battlefield...
Guan Yu seemed to have anticipated Xu Huang's thoughts. When Cao Jun's infantry approached, the entire sidecar was turned around, and the original front of the car turned into the rear...
The original left-hand carriage became the right one...and on the right side, standing on the carriage were crossbowmen...
Without exception, they were all wearing neat bright light armor. First, brilliant light shot out from the breastplates on their chests. The moment they blinded the enemy, the fully-strung bows and arrows in their hands were already shooting "swish, swish, swish".
When it came out, arrows passed like locusts!
"ah…"
"ah…"
Cao Cao's entire army fell instantly.
Before Cao Jun could react, the Guan family sergeant holding a repeating crossbow quickly moved forward.
Relying on the cover of the strong light behind them, they quickly moved within the range of the repeating crossbow. The next step was to use the protective goggles on their bodies... to get closer, to attack with stronger beams, and to fire the repeating crossbow continuously.
"Swish swish——"
The sound of piercing the sky resounded throughout the battlefield!
collapse…
It only took a moment for Xu Huang's Yongliang troops to go from charging to collapse.
Xu Huang closed his eyes...
But he had already heard Guan Yu's cry to kill.
"Whoever captures Xu Huang alive will be promoted to three levels in a row and given a thousand pieces of gold——"
"Kill--"
"Kill--"
The roaring cry of killing came, and the whole process...from the beam to the arrows, to the repeating crossbow, to the final charge... hardly took more than a hundred breaths.
It was so fast... It was so fast that Xu Huang, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, had no time to react.
finally…
After realizing the current situation, Xu Huang quickly issued an order to withdraw his troops, but... or because of the bright light, the soldiers at the rear were defeated in one blow...
In the Guan family's army, those brave soldiers holding repeating crossbows were ready to go. While pursuing, they kept firing their repeating crossbows...
This kind of continuous crossbow shot from the back... hit Cao Jun's weak spot hard.
The destructive power to Cao's army was devastating.
For a time, Cao Jun was defeated like a mountain!
It is ironic to say that Guan Yu and Xu Huang chatted for a whole hour under the canopy umbrella, but the whole process from Xu Huang's attack to his defeat did not even take more than a quarter of an hour.
Defeated in embarrassment...
The defeat was hasty, and the defeat was extremely humiliating.
After Guan Yu's great victory, he did not let his soldiers pursue him. He seemed extremely calm...
While stroking his long beard, he recalled what Guan Yinping said when he handed the two thousand Mingguang Armor to him.
——"The reflected ray and the incident ray are on the same plane as the normal, and the reflected ray and the incident ray are separated on both sides of the normal... The reflection angle is equal to the incident angle... If this principle is applied to sunlight, it is..."
Obviously, Guan Yinping did not understand what Liu Ye told Guan Yinping, but he relayed everything to Guan Yu verbatim.
Naturally, Guan Yu didn't understand either, but that's not important.
Because there are many things Guan Yu doesn't understand.
When he was looking after homes and courtyards and selling red dates, how could he ever know how to lead an army? How to lead an army? How to fight a war?
Guan Yu's achievements over the years are entirely due to his strong understanding and learning ability.
Because it was designed by Guan Lin and modified by Liu Ye...
Guan Yu put it on without hesitation, and then... began to try it himself.
First, let the five personal guards fight him together!
Five are no match for Guan Yu...
Ten more were called!
Fifteen were no match for Guan Yu, and in the end it was increased to twenty-five... Considering that Guan Yu's personal guards were also only one-in-a-thousand soldiers, in the past, Guan Yu could fight against twenty-five, which was already his limit.
But this time, he easily defeated the twenty-five personal guards.
Later it was added to thirty, forty, fifty...
Guan Yujun miraculously defeated them.
It seems that Guan Yu becomes more courageous the more he fights...
But in the end, no matter how brave Guan Yu was, he had already realized the seriousness of the problem. This doubled combat power was definitely not a sudden improvement in his martial arts, but just because of this "Mingguang Armor"...
After questioning the fifty personal guards in detail, they told Guan Yu...it was the mirror on the bright light armor that always caught their eyes inadvertently...
It makes it impossible for them to attack normally.
It turns out that "reflected light and incident light are separated on both sides of the normal line", speaking in human terms... it means that the bronze mirror on this "Mingguang Armor" will "reflect", which will make people unable to open their eyes!
Guan Yu tried several more times...
This time, he understood and realized...
We even found a correlation between the height of the sun and the angle of reflection!
That's it... it's simple.
Guan Yu is best at drawing inferences from one instance. What he immediately thought of was the problem he was facing now: how to defeat Xu Huang in a battle between the two armies?
Because of the Mingguang Armor, this question can be simplified to how to reasonably use the "heart mirror" on the "Mingguang Armor" and how to delay it until the sun rises or sets when the two armies confront each other.
Reflect the light through the mirror onto the enemy's face.
After that, Guan Yu and his bodyguards made a lot of attempts...
Finally, I can roughly judge accurately the height of the sun and the angle of the two sides' formations...
At this time, Guan Yu suddenly had some understanding of the long paragraph about "the reflected light and the incident light are on the same plane as the normal...".
"——That's it!"
"——So this is what Yun Qi wrote, the so-called physics!"
It was precisely based on this that Guan Yu adjusted the Guan family's army's tactics and achieved a complete victory!
On the contrary, Xu Huang, who had fled fifty miles in panic and had just stood still, gasped for air while talking to his son Xu Gai and the lieutenants Xu Shang and Lu Jiandao beside him.
"Look, look..."
"Now, even Yun Chang has...learned to delay time and use such ghostly tricks! Insidious and cunning..."
"He is Guan Yunchang, he is Guan Yunchang!"
yes…
In Xu Huang's subconscious mind, Guan Yunchang has always been aboveboard?
This is how he behaves as a person, and this is how he leads troops to fight!
This time, it's actually... like this?
But... but unfortunately, soldiers never tire of deceit. Although Xu Huang felt aggrieved at the defeat, he couldn't say anything.
"Dad? What should we do next?"
His son Xu Gai asked quickly.
"What should I do?" Xu Huangyou looked angrily, "What can I do? I lost the first battle and lost... half of my troops. What else can I do? Return to the military stronghold.
The fight-free card is high... No fight! This battle cannot be fought!"
Xu Huang finally accepted his mission as a "feint attacker".
He no longer desires to defeat Guan Yu, he just hopes to be able to do what Prime Minister Cao told him to do, just hold Guan Yu back!
at this time…
"General, general..." A scout from the southeast quickly came to Xu Huang, "General Yu Jin asked Mo to send a message that the enemy army in Jiangxia used the bronze mirror on the armor to shoot out a strong light, which made the Runan army eat.
It’s a dark loss…heavy losses, I hope General Xu will be careful!”
call--
It was a good thing that the "small school" who came to report the news didn't show up, but when he showed up, Xu Huang became even more furious.
He glared at the small colonel angrily, "You can come a little later! Then you can go to the coffin and tell me this important information!"
Xu Huang gritted his teeth as he spoke, and there was nowhere to vent the anger in his heart.
this…
The principal looked helpless. He got the order before noon and rushed here.
Even though the journey was not long, because it was a 700-mile rush, he killed two horses on the way!
He...he really didn't stop for a moment, how wrong he was!
He wanted to explain something more, but when he saw Xu Huang's furious look, he immediately closed his mouth...
At this time, it's better not to rush into General Xu's anger, right?
at this time…
Xu Huang suddenly thought of something and asked quickly.
"This matter? General Yu can send someone to inform the Prime Minister!"
The principal quickly answered truthfully: "I told you...we set off together in the morning, and we expected...to arrive in Shouchun tonight."
"That's good, that's good..." Xu Huang muttered, feeling uncomfortable in his heart!
This battle was so frustrating!
The number one brave man in Shanxi, he Xu Huang is fighting for the number one brave man in Shanxi!
Haha, Xu Huang is about to be labeled as the number one joke in Shanxi, right?
——"That damn bright light..."
——"And that... that Guan Yunchang who not only knows how to 'comply with justice', but also learns how to 'win with surprise'? So mature?"
Guan Yunchang, how can we fight this...this battle?"
For a moment, Xu Huang felt huge worries in his heart.
He suddenly became worried about the front lines in Xiangfan, Jiangxia, and Shouchun!
