Chapter 426 The sound of drums is the basis, attack!
To the east of Feng Dashui is the Liaoxi County area, which belongs to Haiyang County, Liaoxi County.
This area is close to the coastline and has a well-developed water system.
The place is even more flat.
Walking northeast along Haiyang County, passing through Guzhu City and Linyu County, you can exit the customs and go to Liucheng along the Banghai Road. This time, Lou Ban led a large number of troops south, taking the Banghai Road from Liucheng and passing through Linyu
County, then passed through Guzhu City and entered Haiyang County.
The floor class seemed very relaxed.
The reason is simple. The enemy he faced this time only had 4,000 troops.
Once these cavalry were encountered, as long as the cavalry under his command rushed forward, Zhao Yun's troops could be overwhelmed by a single sprint from both sides. After Zhao Yun's cavalry was in chaos, he sent a large number of infantry to surround Zhao Yun's cavalry.
, you can harvest the opponent.
The cavalry's offensive lies in the edge of the charge. It must rush forward without stopping or breaking the rhythm. Or, the cavalry can set up a formation in a vast place and can fight back and forth in circuitous ways. In such a situation, the cavalry has
Sufficient lethality.
However, once the cavalry is in a stalemate, surrounded by infantry, trapped in a tight siege, and unable to sprint, the cavalry will be the meat on the chopping block. Because you are riding on horseback and trapped in the crowd, you will be a living target.
The spears were stabbed one after another, and it was completely impossible to dodge.
Lou Ban thought very well about his future. He looked at Su Buyan and Nan Lou and said: "Su Buyan Shanyu, Nanlou Shanyu, we captured Zhao Yun, and then massacred the Han people in Youbeiping."
, I can achieve meritorious deeds. When I become Lord Wuhuan, I will never forget your great help."
Su Buyan looked at Lou Ban, who was overflowing with pride, and liked Lou Ban's expression of joy. With an intriguing smile on his face, he said warmly: "I, Wuhuan, in the eastern part of Liaoning, fully support Lou Ban's Shanyu."
Nanlou was also smiling, he liked this junior who had no scheming ideas.
Facing Tadun, Nanlou felt frightened in his heart.
The floor class in front of me is too simple.
Only when Lou Ban becomes Lord Wuhuan can an old man like him gain more rights.
Nanlou looked serious and expressed his position: "I went to Wuhuan in the valley, and I also stood beside Louban Shanyu. Even if we start a war with Tadun, I will not hesitate."
Lou Ban was very satisfied with the attitude of Nanlou and Su Puyan, and said happily: "I have made a great contribution this time. When I return to Liucheng, if Tadun realizes what he is doing, that will be it. If Tadun doesn't understand what he is doing, he will be dealt with directly."
Su Buyan and Lou Ban nodded in reply.
The three of them chatted, talking about the carving up of the various forces in Wuhuan and the distribution of future interests. Especially since Tadun was strong in western Liaoning and had many tribal soldiers, these interests were planned by the three of them.
The team continued to move forward and approached Feng Dashui in the west of Haiyang County.
The Great Water flows north and south, entering the sea in the south, passing through Haiyang County in the north and entering Lingzhi County.
Lou Ban approached Feng Dashui, glanced at the pontoon, and without thinking about anything, directly ordered to cross the river.
The pontoon bridge in front of us consists of small boats arranged side by side, and wooden planks are put on the boats to form a simple pontoon bridge to cross the river. Such a pontoon bridge is not stable enough, so there are very few soldiers who can cross the bridge at the same time.
On the one hand, the pontoon bridge built by boats is very narrow and can only accommodate two people passing side by side. On the other hand, the pontoon bridge has insufficient bearing capacity. Too many people crossing the bridge at the same time can easily cause the pontoon bridge to sway.
Therefore, we can only cross the river slowly.
Fortunately, the river channel that seals the flood is shallow, the river is not deep, and the current is not fast. It is very easy to walk on such a floating bridge.
The soldiers under Lou Ban quickly crossed the river.
The first soldiers to cross the river were the infantry under Su Puyan's command. After all, it was easy for the infantry to gain a foothold on the other side. When the infantry was crossing the river, Su Puyan, as the Shanyu of Liaodong, also crossed the river to the other side to reorganize his troops.
However, due to the limited number of river bridges, crossing the river was very slow. It took a long time to get 5,000 infantry across the river.
Lou Ban made adjustments at this time and arranged for the cavalry to begin crossing the river.
When the cavalry was crossing the river, they were in the mountains and forests far away on the other side of the river.
Lu Xuan quietly waited for the news. He, Zhao Yun, and the team led by Tian Chou had already arrived at the ferry bridge that sealed the flood. The official road nearby was the only way that must be passed. If Lou Ban wants to cross the river, he must pass here.
.
Lu Xuan had received news of Lou Ban's approach before, but he still had to wait for Lou Ban's team to cross the river.
Only in this way can the effect be achieved.
According to Lu Xuan's arrangement, almost half of Lou Ban's troops had to cross the river before Lu Xuan started to attack again.
The biggest advantage of a half-crossing attack is that it can crush the opponent's defense line in one go, making countless enemies panic and flee further, even diving for survival, or many people trample on each other in order to escape. This is the essence of a half-crossing attack.
While Lu Xuan was waiting for the news, the sound of rapid footsteps was heard, and a detective came quickly.
The sentry came to Lu Xuan and reported: "Your Majesty, on the Wuhuan side, the infantry were crossing the river at the beginning, and there were about four to five thousand people crossing the river. Now the cavalry is crossing the river slowly, and the number of cavalry on the other side is constant. For the time being,
I can’t tell how many people will be arranged to cross the river.”
Lu Xuan nodded and ordered: "Continue to explore and watch carefully."
"Here!"
The sentry turned around and left.
Lu Xuan looked at Jia Xu and said: "Wenhe, the news returned by the spies is that there are 20,000 infantry and 6,000 cavalry in Louban. Now 5,000 infantry are crossing the river, followed by all the cavalry. Next we face a choice,
Should he wait for all his cavalry to cross the river before launching the attack, or wait for some of his cavalry to cross the river before crossing the river?"
Jia Xu looked calm and said quickly: "Your Majesty, our arrangement is very simple. Once all Lou Ban's cavalry crosses the river, we will attack immediately. As long as Lou Ban's cavalry are destroyed, even if there are more than 10,000 infantry around him, that will be enough."
Nothing to fear."
"In order to create noise, Tian Chou arranged drummers and buglers in the area around the river that blocked the flood, as well as in the nearby mountains and forests. Once all Wuhuan's cavalry crossed the river, the other party's cavalry was unprepared, and the drums and horns sounded loudly.
If the horse is frightened, the cavalry will suddenly become confused."
"Our horses have their ears plugged, and there are soldiers to comfort them, so they can attack immediately."
"The humble position believes that a single effort is enough to break down the opponent's defense line."
"As long as the drums are beating loudly and the soldiers are shouting, they can be heard far away. In addition, when the soldiers remove the sandbags blocking the river upstream, the river water will rush forward and the river bridge will be washed away immediately, causing the bridge to swing and making it difficult to cross the river.
"
"At this point, the people crossing the river have lost their backbone and are in panic."
A flash of light flashed across Jia Xu's eyes, and he said loudly: "At this time, it is time to fight with courage, fighting spirit, and fight desperately."
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Wen He's words make sense."
He gave the order again and informed his sentry to keep an eye on the Wuhuan cavalry. Once the cavalry was about to cross the river, he would immediately report it. After the order was arranged, Lu Xuan waited quietly.
Time passes little by little.
Lu Xuan rubbed the spear in his hand and prepared to join the battle.
On the battlefield, Lu Xuan, the leader, did not participate in the battle, so why should he let everyone fight to the death? As long as Lu Xuan participated in the battle, all the soldiers would have infinite fighting spirit and dare to fight desperately.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound of footsteps.
The sentry came back again and said quickly: "Your Majesty, the last group of cavalry under Lou Ban's command have begun to cross the bridge."
"finally come."
Lu Xuan stood up and ordered loudly: "Send the order, beat the drum, the cavalry is ready to attack."
The messengers who had been prepared long ago quickly conveyed the order. Lu Xuan, Zhao Yun, and Xu Chu came to the place where four thousand cavalry were waiting. Everyone got on their horses and got ready to go.
"Boom! Boom!!!"
Suddenly, the drums sounded loudly.
With the sound of the first war drum, the entire mountain and forest area near Feng Dashui began to beat loudly, and the rumbling sound resounded throughout the world. The entire surrounding area was immersed in the deafening sound of drums.
Along with the sound of drums, the sound of horns also sounded, adding to the sense of urgency and urgency.
