Qu Yi committed suicide, and dozens of personal guards followed him. Although Wang Yu was a little emotional, he had no intention of getting entangled. In fact, he had no time to get entangled at all. ※After Ling woke up from the shock, she kept whispering in his ear
I can't even think about it in vain.
"What kind of formation is the Star Spreading Formation? Is it really more powerful than the Chexuan Formation? You have never tried it, so how do you know which one is more powerful? Otherwise, you can train a soldier and try it out. I always feel that
You are bragging, how can you be better than my cavalry? This is unreasonable..."
"Ahem, Qiling, you are also the commander of an army after all. You have to pay attention to these things after the war, right? Why bother with a formation name? I didn't say that the Star Spreading Formation is definitely better than the Chexuan Formation.
I just think that these two strange formations can compete head-on. If they really fight, it depends on which side is more strategic and which side will win..."
Wang Yu tried to distract Lu Qiling.
He found that the few female factors in a girl seemed to be concentrated in the aspect of being coquettish and pestering others. Even though she was usually not gentle, she was more pestering than those middle school girls in later generations who pestered their parents and boyfriends to buy iPhones.
Powerful and resilient, he won't give up until he gets satisfactory results.
"That's right..." Wang Yu's method has achieved some results. Lu Qiling is still very precious to her cavalry. She looked around nervously for a few times, then breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and said easily: "It doesn't matter.
, with Uncle Zhang and Kong Ming here, I don’t need to worry about these things..."
As she said that, she took Wang Yu's arm and said in a disgusting voice: "General Wang, brother Pengju, my dear husband, please do well. Don't show off, just talk to me, just talk about that.
Just how the star array works..."
"Hey, hey, don't drag me around. I'm just going to tell you everything you know, okay?" Even though Wang Yu has been among flowers all year round and has been practicing for a long time, there is no such thing as being angry with his savage girlfriend.
No matter how much resistance she had, she quickly surrendered after being pestered by Lu Qiling.
"This is my good husband!" Lu Qiling was overjoyed. She reached out and patted Wang Yu on the shoulder. Although she called her husband, her posture seemed to be saying, 'Good brother. Be loyal.'
"actually……"
"Well, please keep your voice down, don't let others hear it!" As soon as Wang Yu opened his mouth, Lu Qiling looked around nervously, then came closer and hugged Wang Yu's shoulders carelessly, her pretty face almost close to hers.
When it reached Wang Yu's lips, he tightened his arms and said softly: "Well, we can start now."
Wang Yu couldn't laugh or cry. No wonder Lu Bu put down his airs as soon as he heard that someone wanted to marry his daughter. Even in later generations, this eldest lady would be considered very individual. But now, she is a strange flower.
.
This posture is not ordinary ambiguous. Don't you see that Chitu and Wuzui are both unhappy? There is white air spraying from their nostrils, their eyes are wide open, they are glaring at each other, and they look like they will start a fight at any time.
However, he also knew that the only way to calm this young lady down as soon as possible was to meet her request as soon as possible. However, his knowledge of the Star Spreading Formation was limited, so it was really not easy to explain clearly.
"The name of the formation is spreading stars. As the name suggests, the formation is arranged like a star. When the enemy's cavalry rushes forward, the soldiers disperse instead of gathering together, allowing the enemy to escape. When the enemy retreats or the momentum is exhausted, the scattered soldiers gather together again.
, to counterattack the enemy cavalry... This formation is specially designed to restrain the cavalry, and the most suitable unit is the long-armed soldier..."
"Is this a lie?" Lu Qiling tilted her head and looked at Wang Yu, her face clearly telling Wang Yu that she didn't believe it.
It's not that the girl is suspected of being seriously ill. This formation makes sense logically, but it obviously goes against the common sense of military use.
Dispersing the soldiers can certainly reduce the power of the cavalry's charge to the extreme, but then won't the formation collapse? The cavalry can gather and disperse as usual, because the cavalry is not very particular about formations, but the infantry pays the most attention to formation and coordination.
Once the formation is broken up, how easy is it to get it back together again? Even if it can be done, it cannot be completed in as short a time as a cavalry charge.
The operating principle of this Star Spreading Formation gave her a very familiar feeling, just like when Wang Yu proposed the concept of the Che Xuan Formation when he first arrived in Gaotang and started training troops.
"This formation definitely exists, there is no doubt about it. However, all I know is the name of the formation, the operating principles of the formation, the formation diagram and the specific training methods, but I don't know." Wang Yu spread his hands, not knowing.
Regretfully said: "Qu Yi is the person most likely to make this formation reappear. If he doesn't die, we might still have a chance to see it. Now, we can only think about it..."
Of course the formation is real. The Star Spreading Formation was painstakingly researched by Yue Wumu. It is a formation specifically designed to restrain heavy cavalry. Although it sounds unbelievable, but with this formation, Yue Fei just used the newly recruited recruits to defeat the enemy.
With insufficient armor, they fought several battles and won consecutive victories, completely ruining the Iron Pagoda that the Jurchens had carefully built.
Like Huo Qubing's Chexuan Formation, Yue Fei's Star Spreading Formation was also short-lived. Following the unjust deaths of Yue Fei and his son, only legends remained, but this formation definitely existed.
Being able to defeat cavalry with the help of pikemen and square formations originally only existed in novels. People who have never witnessed the charge of cavalry with their own eyes can hardly imagine what it was like. If such a simple method can defeat the cavalry,
To fight against and completely defeat them, where would heroes like Yue Fei and Qi Jiguang appear?
Although there are many stars in this era, except for Qu Yi, there is really no one who specializes in the tactics of infantry to restrain cavalry. If you have that spare time, you might as well train more cavalry.
With Qu Yi's death, the Star Spreading Formation will probably cease to exist.
Although he was a little regretful that he could not see the true appearance of the strange formation, Wang Yu felt that it did not matter. From now on, it will be an era when the Han cavalry will dominate the world. Studying how to restrain the cavalry is something that the enemies of the Han need to consider. From this perspective, Wang Yu
Yu would rather spread the star array and become the ultimate sound.
Except for the Chinese, it is impossible for other races to have such in-depth research on the formation. The non-reappearance of Bu Keqi's strange formation means that the Han cavalry is invincible. Compared with the significance of this level, the value of the strange formation will naturally become lower.
.
Wang Yu evaded the important points and explained the meaning of the Star Spreading Formation in one sentence, which made Lu Qiling nod her head frequently in admiration.
"Actually, Qu Yi is only one step away from the Sa Xing Formation. If we can't defeat him today, we will fight again next time, even without my prompts... In that case, even if we win, we will have to pay even more.
The price. Being the first to be killed is truly remarkable."
The most important thing when defeating cavalry on foot is not formation, but courage. Without soldiers who dare to fight, neither Qu Yi nor Yue Fei can defeat a powerful enemy. When it comes to the courage to face death, the first to die is worthy of the title.
, Although there are many powerful soldiers in the world, none of them can surpass them.
Lu Qiling didn't have as many feelings as Wang Yu, so she put her worries aside and began to look forward to the future: "Okay, okay, don't think so much. Anyway, he is dead, and the Star Spreader Array will not appear again. Our cavalry
It's still invincible. Once we pack it up, we'll hit the road as soon as possible. There are still many enemies in Juyong waiting for us to destroy."
Wang Yu didn't answer. While he was talking, the battlefield was almost cleaned.
The soldiers who went to chase the enemy came back one after another. The soldiers who were responsible for taking in the prisoners and collecting the trophies had almost completed their tasks. Under the leadership of Zhang Liao, they handed over their orders to the general in turn and asked Wang Yu for advice on how to deal with the aftermath.
Qi Zhou's soldiers basically ran away, and Zhang Liao didn't chase him. He couldn't catch up anyway. Those idiots were frightened and abandoned all their burdens. They were lighter than normal light cavalry and became faster and heavier.
The armored cavalry can only be outdone.
However, after experiencing such a collapse, people like Qi Zhou will not become a threat again, but will become a support to the Qingzhou Army for a long time. Because they will spread panic to the entire Hulu camp, preventing the enemy from fighting
Be timid first.
More than half of Qu Yi's three thousand troops were killed or wounded. Only a few of the remaining people managed to escape, and the rest were taken prisoner.
In this battle, all the strength of the cavalry was used in the charge, and there was no intention of encirclement and annihilation. The final result was total annihilation. This can only be attributed to Qu Yi's commanding ability. If it were not for his command,
If the whole army is at a disadvantage and still fights to the death, the casualties will not be so great, and more people will escape.
Most of these prisoners are Liu Yu's die-hard loyalists. They cannot be used, at least not in Youzhou. However, except for foreigners, Wang Yu has no habit of killing prisoners. He can only keep them in custody first and wait until later.
Disposal is done.
Zhuge Liang, who was responsible for reducing the number of wounded and counting the number of dead, also completed his task. He was holding a stack of names of people, waiting for Wang Yu and the commander-in-chief Lu Qiling to check.
The cost of winning this battle was high, with more than 30% casualties.
However, the equipment that was bought with a lot of money is not a decoration. The benefit of high defense is not only reflected on the battlefield, but also shines after the war. Among the approximately 500 fallen, only slightly more than 20% were killed in battle, and the rest were injured.
Immortal.
Wang Yu was not too worried about these wounded soldiers. He was extremely well prepared for sending troops this time. Those who went to Zhongshan with Tian Feng were also Hua Tuo, whom he abducted from Jiangdong. The excuse he used was of course that Zhongshan was in war and the people were living in dire straits.
Or something, in order to awaken the other party's benevolence and medical ethics, and go together with Zhang Ning's medical team to save lives and heal the wounded.
With China's number one surgical expert here, the problem of treating wounded soldiers that troubled other princes was no longer a problem for Wang Yu.
Of course, we will definitely not be able to fight continuously this time. If we want to put the cavalry into the battlefield again, we will need at least a few days of rest.
Fortunately, when Qu Yi and Qi left on Monday, there were no enemy troops left in Fan Yang. After getting in touch with Wei Yan and Li Le, it was enough to leave the matter of clearing out the remaining enemies to them.
"The army entered Tuoxian County first, leaving behind some wounded and auxiliary troops. After a day's rest, the main force continued to advance and sent troops to Jixian County!"
