Chapter 236: Trapped Camp VS Peerless Army (3)
Lu Bu's eyes were full of meaning, and he asked:
"General Xiahou, if you are the commander of this cavalry at this time, how should you break the situation?"
Xiahou Lan thought for a moment, a sly smile appeared on her face, and she said:
"Breaking the game? Why break the game? ”
"Oh?" Lu Bu's eyes were surprised,
The smile at the corner of the mouth is deeper,
Looking at Xia Houlan, there was a trace of appreciation in his eyes,
Then he asked:
"If you don't break the game, how can you win the battle?"
Xia Houlan opened his mouth and replied:
"If it is a competition like this, then the two sides are just a draw, but if it is a battlefield fight, I can drag the trapped camp with the cavalry, and the infantry can go around the enemy's headquarters, and this battle can be won."
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad!"
Lu Bu stroked his palms and smiled,
"But I don't think the trap is going to stop there, so let's wait and see."
At this time, the two sides of the contest changed again,
The Wushuang Army used the cavalry perimeter to attack and harass,
The infantry fought and retreated,
Stand out of the range of the spear and attack the camp with a bow and arrow.
Although there is no way to bring a wide area of damage to the trapped camp,
But the blow to morale is huge.
And over time,
The casualties will certainly get bigger and bigger,
Pan Feng hit this idea,
Aren't you shrinking into defense?
Then I'll use my bow and arrow to test how hard your carapace is.
At the same time that everyone was sweating for the trapped camp,
The military formation that suddenly fell into the camp changed again,
The soldiers with huge shields quickly dispersed to both sides of the battle array,
With their huge shields to protect the entire flanks of the army,
Countless arrows flew in,
Touching their hard shields,
Leaving only the sound of gold and iron clashing,
But it didn't do the slightest damage.
meanwhile
More than 2,000 people in the middle of the trap camp,
Sudden high-speed charge,
Though they were heavily armoured,
But under this all-out run,
But it was much faster than the slowly retreating Musou Army.
The two thousand soldiers who had fallen into the camp raised their left hands above their heads,
Use the shield on your forearm to defend against falling arrows,
With a throwing gun in his right hand and dragging behind him,
Clouds of smoke and dust were raised as they went.
Seeing this, Pan Feng gave another order,
The infantry of the Peerless Army immediately stopped retreating,
Park Daobing immediately squatted,
The round shield in his hand was raised forward,
Rows of flickering spears suddenly appeared behind him,
The archers are behind the pikemen,
Paused the shooting, and held their breath to concentrate,
Carefully calculate the distance of the other party,
After waiting for the commander's order,
Shoot each other with the bow and arrow in your hand.
This time the camp no longer hesitates,
The first round of arrows from the other side fell,
Although careful precautions,
But there are still many people who are attacked in fatal places,
I had no choice but to retreat from the battlefield.
The rest of the soldiers were in the interval between the opponent's bows and arrows,
Throw the spear in your right hand with all your might,
Sharp and heavy throwing guns with a sharp whistling sound,
Fly to the unequaled army formation that is waiting for you.
The Pak knife soldiers in the front row are okay,
Thanks to the protection of the shield,
The losses are not heavy,
However, the pikemen and archers in the back took a lot of damage.
didn't give the Peerless Army the slightest time to react,
Two thousand heavily armored traps are like running rhinoceros,
Even the men with armor collided with the defensive formation of the Peerless Army,
When he boarded, the first row of Pak Dao soldiers was shocked,
There are gaps in many places.
The two thousand soldiers trapped in the camp finally met the Wushuang Army in a short battle,
The two sides immediately began a fierce fight.
In the stands, Tai Shi Ci said in admiration:
"It is worthy of General Gao's trapping camp, and it has changed from defending to attacking in such a short period of time, and now the Wushuang Army should suffer......"
His voice hasn't fallen yet,
Xia Houlan's voice next to him sounded again,
"General Taishi's words are wrong, you should carefully watch the cavalry of the Wushuang Army."
Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci looked intently at the cavalry units of the Wushuang Army,
Fang was attracted by the front armies of both sides,
I haven't paid attention to the changes in the battle situation behind,
I saw that at this time, the two armies here were fighting more fiercely.
While two thousand commandos charged at the Musou Army,
The Giant Shield Soldier has set up a solid line of defense,
Defend against cavalry bows and arrows.
But the cavalry of the Peerless Army changed formations faster,
Nearly half of the cavalry continued to shoot each other with bows and arrows,
Forcing the soldiers of the trapping camp with huge shields to not move,
The other half of the cavalry was at this time,
They all carried the longbows in their hands on their backs,
With a stretch of his hand, he removed the spear hanging from the saddle,
Like a sharp cone,
The charge was launched towards the weak point where the front and rear armies of the trapped camp were disjointed by the charge.
Since the cavalry units never stopped running,
The kinetic energy of the charge has reached its maximum,
The soldiers with huge shields guarded against the bows and arrows in the rear,
There was no time to run to the front to defend against the charge of the cavalry.
The formation of the trapped camp was immediately pierced,
Although the soldiers were all dressed in heavy armor,
But it was still unable to resist the cavalry charge that had reached its strongest state at this time.
At the same time, in the rear of the infantry formation of the Musou Army,
A force of about 4,000 men,
Bypassing the front of the battle between the two armies,
Charge from the rear,
The target of their charge,
It was the weak point of the line that the cavalry had broken through at this time.
Xia Houlan looked at the battlefield,
The two armies are fighting back and forth,
With a look of admiration in his eyes, he spoke:
"Such a swift response, such a perfect execution, worthy of being trapped in the camp, worthy of being a peerless army. At this moment, it is dangerous to fall into the camp. ”
Although it is said that it is dangerous to fall into the camp,
But the tone was still full of admiration,
The other generals beside him also nodded.
The Musou Army is obviously prepared this time,
All the plans that began first,
It seems that they are all preparing for this moment,
is to wait for the trapped camp to take the initiative to attack,
At the same time, the formation is loose,
create opportunities for their attacks,
When this thickly armored turtle stretched out its neck and was ready to bite the enemy,
only to suddenly find out that it was just a trick of a cunning snake to lure the enemy,
The snake head who has been waiting for a long time is at this moment,
Suddenly, he bared his fangs and bit down on his fragile neck.
However, before the sighs of the crowd fell completely,
Suddenly there was a change again,
Countless throwing guns flew again,
This time the place where it fell was actually on the route of the cavalry of the Peerless Army,
I saw that the soldiers of the trapped camp who rushed forward were divided into half again,
And the rest of the soldiers in the trapped camp who were originally under the escort of the giant shield soldiers,
also rushed forward, throwing the throwing guns in their hands on the way,
It turned out to launch a counter-charge against the cavalry units that had already launched a charge.
Everybody sees here,
It's all a look of shock,
Many people stood up from their seats in surprise.
Suddenly, Lu Bu's voice came out at this time,
"Mingjin!"
As soon as Lu Bu's words fell,
I heard a hurried gong sound behind me,
The sound spread throughout the battlefield in an instant,
The soldiers on both sides who heard the sound of gold,
Forced to a halt.
Since it's just a show,
The weapons used by both sides are unbladed,
Previously, both sides had only used headless bows and arrows and throwing spears to attack each other from a distance.
Even if you hit your body, it won't do much damage.
But when the cavalry of the Musou Army began to charge,
When the trapped camp actually started a counter-charge,
Even if the weapons of both sides are not lethal,
But in that case,
There will also be real casualties.
The purpose of Lu Bu's exercise is to
Review the strength of both sides,
But I don't really want to separate you from life and death,
So at the last moment,
Shout out loudly for Mingjin to withdraw his troops.
Fortunately, both of these forces are the elite of the elite,
Although the fight was very fierce,
But as soon as the gong sounds,
It stopped immediately.
The two armies quickly formed a neat phalanx on the battlefield,
Without a hint of confusion,
Only the dust that rises from the ground,
It proves that there is a fierce battle here.
Lu Bu stood up with his hands in his hands,
Looking at the two troops that have been completed on the battlefield,
Nodding with satisfaction,
He took a deep breath and shouted:
"Soldiers! You've done a great job! ”
"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”
More than 20,000 soldiers responded in unison,
The majestic voice spread throughout the four fields.
Lu Bu stretched out his hands forward, pressed them downward, and then said:
"Soldiers, your performance is very good, it can be seen that the hard training during this period of time has not been in vain, you are all good, you are all excellent Erlang in my state! I'm so proud of you! ”
"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”
The soldiers once again responded more passionately than before.
Lu Bu stretched out his hand again,
calmed the voices of the soldiers,
Shouted loudly:
"Erlangs! This exercise ended successfully! I declare that the two armies are drawn, and there is no winner or loser. But——! ”
Lu Bu paused, and after seeing everyone looking at him intently,
Only then did he continue to open his mouth and shout:
"But the performance of both of you has exceeded my expectations, and my rule Lu Bu is that meritorious service must be rewarded! All the soldiers who participated in the drill appreciated the three buckets of rice! ”
As soon as the command of Lu Bu's reward was spoken,
Even if the elite is like two troops,
I couldn't help but let out a whispered chatter,
Immediately afterward, the 26,000 soldiers let out an earth-shattering cheer.
In the Han Dynasty, a bucket of rice was equivalent to less than thirteen catties now.
Three buckets of rice is less than forty catties,
And in this era, because there is not too much meat,
Therefore, the consumption of food is relatively large,
A month's ration for an adult man is about three buckets.
In other words, three buckets of grain are nothing more than three days' rations.
But the grain was corn,
However, the reward announced by Lu Bu was rice polishing,
It's not a concept.
That's why the soldiers let out such earth-shattering cheers.
After the voices of Lu Bu and the other soldiers calmed down a little,
Then he spoke again and shouted:
"Not only the soldiers who participated in the drill today will be rewarded, but the rest of the soldiers who failed to participate in the drill will also be rewarded, and each person will be rewarded with a bucket of polished rice!"
Under this command,
It's not just the soldiers who just participated in the drill who are crazy,
Instead, all the soldiers let out a tsunami-like cheer.
Listening to the joyful cheers of the soldiers,
Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction,
led a group of generals quietly out of the stands.
This is also a bumper harvest in the autumn of this year.
to be able to reward all the soldiers so proudly.
You must know that now the entire state is under the command,
The number of all the soldiers is close to 300,000,
Even if each person is counted according to one bucket,
Then this is also 30,000 milled rice,
What's more, there are 25,000 people who were rewarded with three buckets each,
This is another 7,500 milled rice,
The total number has reached nearly 40,000 hu,
Definitely a lot of money,
For the previous mergers,
Such a reward is even unthinkable,
But now it was said lightly by Lu Bu.
Lu Bu said it easily,
The soldiers were also greatly encouraged,
However, it suffered the big steward of the entire Bingzhou Group - Diao Chan.
When she learned that Lu Bu had rewarded nearly 40,000 pieces of polished rice in one day,
was so angry that he almost fought with Lu Bu,
Fortunately, Lu Bu's cheeky mouth is sweet,
After three or four days of coaxing,
Finally coaxed Diao Chan well,
But that's another story.
Leave it at ease.
Lu Bu came to the military tent of the wolf warrior special forces,
He drove away all the other generals,
Only Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and others were left,
Dian Wei guarded outside the military tent like an iron tower,
Without Lu Bu's permission,
No one is allowed to enter or leave the tent here.
Lu Bu sat on the throne,
Fingers tapped lightly on the small table in front of him,
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly spoke:
"General Xiahou."
Xia Houlan's eyes froze,
Hurriedly got up and replied:
"Wait for the adults, the villains are here. The villain no longer has a military position, and he never dares to be a general. ”
Lu Bu smiled indifferently, waved his hand and said:
"General Xiahou is too modest, Bai Ma Yi is from the world's strongest army, and the general is the commander of Bai Ma Yicong, this general is worthy of his name."
Xia Houlan's face showed a sad look when she heard this,
Bow your head and be silent.
Lu Bu also knew that he mentioned the pain that the other party was unwilling to touch,
But he did it on purpose.
Then he continued:
"The battle of the boundary bridge, I still know the details of its history, the fault is not the general, the other party has been preparing for a long time, and it is a trap set for the white horse Yicong......"
Lu Bu's words are not finished,
Xia Houlan got up suddenly,
Respectfully bowed to Lu Bu,
Then he spoke:
"Although I, Xia Houlan, am not very old, I am not a person who cannot afford it. A win is a victory, and a defeat is a defeat. There is no objective justification. ”
"Good! Good! Good! ”
Lu Bu smiled, said three good things in a row, and then said:
"General Xiahou is young, but he is quite generous, which really makes Lu admire. I don't know what General Xiahou plans to do in the future? ”
Xia Houlan secretly said in her heart: It's here.
As early as when Zhao Yun deliberately took him to visit the three camps in the Ugin Mountains,
Xia Houlan already felt it,
He's not a stupid man,
On the contrary, he was a very intelligent man.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to be able to take the position of commander of the White Horse at a young age.
In addition, when I watched the exercises of the two armies,
Lu Bu took the opportunity to test him many times,
At that time, he already understood,
Lu Bu will definitely have a showdown with him today,
Recruit him to join the state.
