Chapter 706: Joke Persuasion
The book is picked up again.
When Tian Feng was preparing for war and preparing to deal with Lu Bu, Lu Bu was also reorganizing his troops.
"Wen Yuan, how many troops are left in total?"
After Zhang Liao heard Lu Bu's words, a touch of sadness appeared on his face, and he replied: "Lord Qi, the cavalry led by the Lord is now only more than 3,000 people.
And the subordinates led the nearly 2,000 people, but there were only a little more than a thousand left, and there were no war horses.
But fortunately, after we captured these 30,000 cavalry, there were enough horses, so after this battle, we now have a total of about 4,000 cavalry. ”
"......" Lu Bu nodded silently after hearing Zhang Liao's words.
Although he had already made an estimate in his heart, after hearing Zhang Liao's careful analysis, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.
When he set out, he had a total of more than 10,000 troops under his command, but after several battles, now he is not even half, how can this not make him sad?
However, he also knew that now was not the time to be sad, so he regained his spirits and asked Zhang Liao, "Are you ready for the things that a certain family asked you to prepare?" ”
"Ready!" After Zhang Liao nodded, he frowned and asked, "Lord, are you really willing to harm those war horses?" ”
"What do you mean by a scourge warhorse?!" After Lu Bu heard Zhang Liao's words, he rolled his eyes and said angrily: "If I can't wait to break through, even if there are more war horses, what's the use, isn't it still cheap in the end, Yuan Shao?"
As long as I wait for the breakout to get out, there will always be 10,000 or 20,000 war horses left in the end.
When the time comes, we can use these horses to form a cavalry unit!
At that time, a certain family will have at least 15,000 cavalry in its hands!
In this way, the identity of a certain family, the "number one general under the command of the lord", can be completely stabilized! ”
When he said this, Lu Bu's face was quite high-spirited.
"What the lord said is right" Zhang Liao nodded and said: "It's not that the subordinates don't understand this truth, it's just that the subordinates are from cavalry, so they cherish war horses very much."
Now to plague more than 10,000 war horses, I really can't bear it in my heart. ”
After saying this, Zhang Liao let out a long sigh, he also knew the truth that Ci was not in charge of the army, but he just couldn't abandon his subordinates as casually as Lu Bu.
After Lu Bu heard Zhang Liao's words, he knew that he was complaining that he had abandoned those brothers.
However, Lu Bu knew that the reason why Zhang Liao was like this was not because he had any complaints about him, but because he couldn't pass the level in his heart.
So after hearing Zhang Liao's words, Lu Bu comforted: "Wen Yuan, you don't have to be like this, this order is from a certain family, and it has nothing to do with you."
Besides, if there weren't so many of them, how could we easily defeat these 30,000 troops?
If a certain family doesn't use this method, maybe we have become Yuan Shao's subordinate prisoners now, how can we be as majestic as we are now? ”
"Alas......" After Zhang Liao heard Lu Bu's words, he let out a long sigh, nodded and said, "My subordinates also understand this truth, but they feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
The lord doesn't have to care, the lord's approach is not wrong, this approach is the most rational! ”
Although Zhang Liao felt uncomfortable, he also understood that if it wasn't for Lu Bu's decisive decision to reduce his army, I am afraid that they would really be defeated now.
Therefore, he intellectually agrees with Lu Bu's approach, but emotionally he can't get past that level in his heart, which is why he is so uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Zhang Liao is a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, although he feels uncomfortable, but he meticulously implements Lu Bu's orders.
"Praise and praise ......" Just as Zhang Liao and Lu Bu were chatting, there was a sound of neat marching in the distance.
After hearing these voices, Zhang Liao and Lu Bu raised their heads at the same time and looked into the distance.
In the distance, he saw about 10,000 troops marching in order.
"Huh!" After seeing this 10,000-strong army, Lu Bu smiled disdainfully and said, "It seems that Yuan Shao really has no cavalry, otherwise he wouldn't be stupid enough to use infantry to deal with cavalry!"
Didn't he know that there were still 3,000 troops under the command of a certain family? ”
After Zhang Liao saw this 10,000-strong army, his brows were also tightly furrowed, and his face was full of puzzlement.
As Lu Bu said, when cavalry and infantry fight each other, the battle loss ratio is often 1:5 to 1:10!
That is, one cavalryman can often deal with five or even ten infantry!
Now their army is about 4,000 people, and if you really want to talk about combat power, how can it compare to the combat power of 20,000 or 30,000 infantry.
And the enemy actually used only 10,000 infantry to come against himself and others, could they really have reached the point of exhaustion?
Zhang Liao, who hadn't figured it out for a long time, shook his head vigorously and stopped thinking about it.
Although he did not know what the enemy was going to do, he believed that the enemy would not come to his death in vain.
Therefore, he said to Lu Bu, who was sneering on his face: "The lord must not be careless, the enemy will definitely not come to die in vain, they must have some conspiracy!"
Therefore, we must not underestimate them, lest we fall for their schemes! ”
After hearing Zhang Liao's words, Lu Bu also nodded and said, "You're right, they must have some plan."
But if we don't fight them head-on, even if they have any conspiracy, they can only return in vain! ”
He who is saying this
At that time, Lu Bu's face was full of pride.
"Uh......" Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded clearly and said, "What the lord said is right, I understand, I really don't have to fight with them." ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at the phalanx of five thousand war horses behind him, and his face showed a look of satisfaction.
These war horses are divided into fifty rows, each row has a hundred, and the war horses in the same row are tied together with long wooden sticks, which can be said to be pulling a hair and moving the whole body.
And the interesting thing is that a bundle of straw was tied to the tail of these war horses, and the straw was oily on it, and it looked like it was splashed with oil.
This is exactly what Lu Bu told Zhang Liao to do, Lu Bu knew that his troops were not many, and it would be very difficult to break through.
Besides, Gao Ran was about to get here again, and it was difficult for him to break through in the face of Gao Ran's army of more than 200,000 people, so he came up with this crooked trick.
It's really not a crooked move, wasn't there a fire bull formation during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period?
After thinking of the Fire Ox Formation and seeing so many war horses, Lu Bu had an idea, and he wanted to use the "Fire Horse Array" to fight the enemy.
And Lu Bu was afraid that the war horses would run around after being frightened, so he asked people to tie the rows of war horses with wooden sticks.
In this way, even if the horses are frightened, they will not run around, but can only rush straight forward.
And most importantly, tying a hundred horses together can increase the impact power, and once they rush into the enemy formation, they will definitely be able to destroy the enemy's military formation!
"Kill, kill, kill, kill !!" Just when Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were proud, the 10,000 army led by Tian Feng also came not far from Lu Bu's army, these armies were indeed very quintessential, and when facing these cavalry of Lu Bu, they were still full of fighting spirit and shouted loudly.
After the shouting stopped, he came out of the army of Tianfeng, and a herald rode triumphantly to Lu Bu's not far away, shouting loudly: "Lu Bu! My general gives you a chance!
If you surrender now, my general will keep you safe and sound, and you will be able to continue to serve under my lord's command!
If you don't know what to do, then don't blame me for being ruthless!
General Gao is less than five miles away from Yecheng, and the night is coming!
When the time comes, I will wait for the two armies to attack, and I will definitely be able to wipe you out!
If you don't surrender now, you won't have a chance, you have to think clearly! ”
"Hahaha......" Lu Bu immediately burst out laughing maniacally after hearing this person's words.
The herald who came out to shout saw Lu Bu laughing, and asked puzzledly, "Lu Bu! You're dying, why are you laughing?! ”
"Hahahaha......" After Lu Bu heard the herald's words, he said with a smile: "......"
