An hour later, outside the camp, there was Tiger Wolf Valley.
This is a quiet valley, the wind blows gently, and the grass and trees on both sides move with the wind. In this autumn morning, people feel an indescribable coolness, but the more than a thousand soldiers of the Beifu Army who are waiting here,
But his face was covered with sweat, and he still stood with his hands in his hands, silent.
A temporary viewing platform has been set up on the mountain peak on one side. Under the pergola, headed by Xie Xuan, many generals were sitting on the bed with different expressions, looking at the military formation in the valley.
Wang Miaoyin also wore a Mi Li and sat side by side with Liu Tingyun. Even through the Mi Li gauze, one could see the worry on her pretty face.
Huan Xuan was dressed in a wide robe and long sleeves, dressed as a scribe, with fluttering white clothes. He sat next to Xie Xuan with a relaxed expression: "Shuai Xuan, you said that today's battle will be different from the martial arts performances of the previous two days.
?”
Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "What do you think Mr. Huan wants?"
Huan Xuan smiled and looked at Huangfu Fu behind him: "General Huangfu, what do you think?"
Sun Wuzhong on the side frowned: "Brother Huangfu was promoted to general?"
Huan Xuan nodded: "Yes, the Qin captives marched south and invaded Xiangyang. Huangfu Guards and Wu Guards have been enlisted by my uncle as generals and are about to lead the troops into battle. I am here today to let them prepare for the expedition.
Before, let’s see the power of the Hu cavalry.”
Having said this, Huan Xuan smiled slightly: "Besides, wasn't General Sun promoted to general?"
Sun Wuzhong smiled and said: "So, we are going to attack the Qin captives on two different battlefields?"
Huangfu smiled and nodded: "General Sun, Liu Yu is your subordinate. I am interested in seeing how the elite soldiers and generals you have trained will perform."
Sun Wuzhong smiled and waved his hand: "It has only been trained for less than three months. It is far behind the Huan family army in Jingzhou. Today, it is just a show of shame. I hope General Huangfu won't laugh!"
Huangfu shook his head and said seriously: "Okay, you and I don't need to be polite anymore. From my perspective, Liu Yu's troops are an absolutely powerful force. They are as immovable as a mountain. They follow orders and prohibitions, and their formations are neat and uniform, but...
…”
Wang Miaoyin's face changed and she lost her voice: "But what?" As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that as a female family member, it was a bit rude to steal the words like this, so her pink face turned slightly red and she stopped her mouth.
Huangfu Fu said calmly: "It's just that although they are arrayed in this valley, they don't know the direction of the enemy's attack at all. If the enemy forces occupy the high ground on both sides and shoot arrows downward, it will be troublesome."
Xie Xuan shook his head: "This is a drill between infantry and cavalry. It does not involve ambushes or mountaineering. It only requires face-to-face fighting."
Huangfu shook his head: "The echo between the valleys is very loud. Even the cavalry only needs three hundred people to attack here, and it can cause thousands of people to attack on the plains. That will affect the general's response to the enemy."
Judgment of the direction of the attack, perhaps, the key to victory or defeat lies in the judgment of the impact!"
Xie Xuan's expression changed slightly and he said nothing, while Huangfu Fu continued: "Besides, I feel that Liu Yu's troops have some problems with their command of flags. Their formation is very good. One thousand and five
Hundreds of people were divided into five teams, guarding the front, rear, left, and right sides, all in a square formation. The infantry in the center acted as a mobile to support the enemy's main attack direction at any time. However, there were no clear flag soldiers between the teams, and there was no one around Liu Yu either.
The messengers and generals' flags, in this way, when fighting, they have to rely on shouting to command, otherwise something will happen!"
Sun Wuzhu shook his head: "General Huangfu, after all, they have only trained for three months. Liu Yu has also been promoted from a recruit to a building leader. He has not yet learned how to command each team through flags. What do you want from him?
Isn’t it a bit too high?”
Huangfu smiled slightly: "Really? If you were on the battlefield and faced the real Northern Huqi, would they care how many months you had been training?"
Liu Laozhi said coldly: "General Huangfu, I think our Beifu soldiers will not lose to Hu Qi. I have enough confidence in Liu Yu today!" Although Liu Laozhi has never liked Liu Yu very much
, but the situation today has become obvious. Visitors from Jingzhou obviously look at Liu Yu with an attitude of finding fault. Even if there are conflicts again, they should share the same hatred and cheer for Liu Yu.
Huan Xuan laughed: "Okay, General Huangfu, let's not talk about it for now. Look, the enemy is coming!"
Everyone looked along and saw bursts of smoke and dust rising from a small forest three miles outside the valley. A wild whistle sounded, and more than a thousand galloping horses scattered out, taking the horse into the sky.
The dust is like a yellow dragon, rushing straight into the valley.
Liu Tingyun shouted excitedly: "Oh, is this the impact of the northern cavalry? It's so powerful, but, why can't I see their team clearly?"
Huan Xuan smiled slightly: "Miss Liu, the most important thing for a cavalry attack is to conceal the direction and number of people in your attack. Otherwise, you will always suffer a loss if you are prepared for a frontal attack on the Tangtang infantry formation."
Wang Miaoyin frowned slightly, pointing to the looming horses in the smoke, and said: "Why, why can't anyone be seen on these horses? Is this what the military book says, charging from the horse?"
Huangfu Fu's eyes flashed coldly: "No, a clever knight can hide on the side of the saddle. This is called hiding in the stirrup. You don't want to see it. You think it's just when the horse is charging, but they suddenly
Lean out from the horse and attack with a hail of arrows!"
Having said this, he smiled and pointed at the cavalry forward who had rushed into the valley, about three hundred steps away from Liu Yu's front army, and said: "Look, that's it!"
In front of the yellow dragon-like smoke and dust, more than 200 horses suddenly ran out. It seemed that there was nothing on the backs of the horses. There were only more than 200 horses, madly rushing towards Liu Yu's front army infantry formation.
, and these well-trained Beifu soldiers, under the command of Tan Pingzhi, have dispersed, a team of fifty people, scattered out into seven or eight small squares, each column has three rows, the front row lifts, and the second row
Draw the bow and raise it diagonally toward the sky.
Liu Tingyun wondered: "Hey, why don't these infantrymen shoot directly at the cavalry? What do you mean by shooting into the sky?"
Sun Wuzhong smiled slightly: "On the battlefield, if you just shoot straight, you can only fire one row of people. Only in this way, shooting at an oblique angle, can the soldiers in the back row fire thousands of arrows at once, causing a lot of damage to the enemy."
Liu Tingyun said "Oh": "Then, if they didn't see the target, how could they shoot without aiming?"
Sun Wuzhong smiled and pointed at the few archers standing in front of him: "You have your own method of measuring distance, lead the shooting!"
As soon as Sun Wuzhong finished speaking, Tan Pingzhi's voice was heard roaring in the valley: "Range-finding hand, launch!"
