Since there is a precedent, Wang Hou didn't play any more tricks on his own, and directly applied Zhang He's strategy to the relatives of the Ma Tan family who controlled the pass on Nanshan.

The first step is to cut off the water source!

Although there is no big river near Jieting Road, there are still small streams and wells, and they are also nomadic people, and the infantry of the Montenegrin Army with pack horses and sheepskin felt bags rushed through the Jieting Pass under the orders of their respective commanders, and tents and deer villages were set up by the small river, and a defensive network was built.

This part of the Montenegrin army is regarded as the mainstream feudal army elite soldiers in the late Han Dynasty, the leader Zhang Yun is the eldest in the family, and he can't inherit the family business, and the generals under him are also the second, third, fourth, and fifth of the big and small landlords of the Montenegrin Army after the division of the Montenegrin country, and they can't inherit the family business, and most of the soldiers are the tenants on the land and the same second and third in the old homesteaders.

From top to bottom, this Montenegrin infantry is like the illegitimate son of a European nobleman, especially eager to win merits from the war, the will to fight is extraordinarily strong, and the equipment and training are influenced by the Liaodong Field Army, and the elite degree is a little more than Xiahou Yuan's Chang'an Army.

The Eastern Front is tired of fighting the Goguryeo people, this time I met the Di people on the Western Front, for these boys, it is really a special novelty, the infantry used the Liaodong sapper shovel to dig the defense line, the Di people on this mountain came down to find water, and the sound of hula and the sound of the two regiments of more than 800 Black Mountain Army carried big axes, guns and steel crossbows, and went to do them with great interest!

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The loud roar shook Liupan Mountain seemed to be slightly shaken, and it was the kind of battlefield where the large army fought the barbarians, and the scattered Di people were not afraid of death and shouted at the gathered Black Mountain heavy infantry throwing javelins, not to mention, the heavy javelins were extremely lethal even for the heavy armor of Liaodong, although the forged tortoise shell armor on the chest and stomach could not be pierced, but the shoulders, thighs, and a single layer of chain mail could not be stopped.

Holding the axe gun, the body of the gun more than three meters long was swaying hard, most of the throwing guns were blocked, but there were still pierced in the body, and the throwing guns that hit the chest made a grunt, and the person staggered, pierced the arm and thigh, and the person lay down directly.

However, according to this rate of destruction, about a year after throwing, the Di people who went down the mountain to fight were able to finish the two regiments of the Montenegrin army.

In front of him, the people with short weapons or some wooden guns were indeed trying their best to fight, but! It's really like a dog biting a hedgehog and can't get down, and if it gets close, it also lets the heavy infantry in the formation chop it with a big axe, and directly opens the scoop.

Wang Hou's infantry formation is particularly close to the Spanish phalanx and Qi Jiguang's army array, but the gunpowder production capacity is insufficient, and the means of output behind the back have been changed from muskets to double-bow steel crossbows.

In the midst of the commotion, the more than 3,000 Di people who came down the mountain were stopped by the 800 Montenegrin army.

But unlike Ma Tan, during the Battle of Jieting, Zhuge Liang's army was attacking Longxi City in Qishan, but here, the Di people had reinforcements!

Longzhong also belongs to the typical loess plateau terrain, although it is not like the Yadan landform in people's impression, the mountains are bare and the grass does not grow, facing the loess and facing the sky, but it is also used in the erosion of flowing water under thousands of ravines, hills and undulating hills.

Just when the waterside was lively, on the land of Longzhong, suddenly there were bursts of smoke and dust, and the sound of messy horses' hooves exploded like torrents and thunder, and Wang Hou and Sima Yi, who were watching the battle not far from the river, couldn't help but turn around.

Not to mention, I killed a lot of Xianbei people a while ago, so that now the equipment of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is much better, wearing the iron armor purchased by the Xianbei people, and some people actually learn to hang the stirrups, and the enemy is constantly improving. Bashan loves

took the lead, and it was under the horse-shaped banner again, carrying a silver spear, and Ma Mengqi, a famous general of Xiliang, rushed out again.

However, after a glance and a yawn, Sima Yi turned his gaze back to the riverside battlefield with jealousy, and Wang Hou was helpless, pretending to beep and took out the sky-piercing monkey he was carrying around his waist, and with a dozen flints, he swished straight into the blue sunny sky.

There was a bang, not far from drinking water, and in another mountain col, the sound of heavy horses' hooves was also violently sounded, and in the even heavier vibration of the sky and the earth, the Liaodong Cavalry Regiment, which had already been ambushed, also rushed out with a roar under the banner of Zhao Zi.

This is Ma Chao's strategy! He thought clearly, although it would not be a problem for the entire Longshang to transfer out another 100,000 troops, but like Mr. Cao, he could only mobilize 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and the Qiang people were far from the elite infantry of Ma Tan's Shu army.

It is better to hold on to Nanshan, and before the key point is taken, Wang Hou does not dare to directly carry the large army and materials to Longshang.

And when the Liaodong Army attacked the mountains and attacked the murderer, his cavalry could still find a bargain from behind.

Just like now.

But it's actually very simple to defuse this trick, be patient!

Also like now! Seeing that although Zhao Yun was a little less numerous, but the equipment was more elite and the well-trained cavalry regiment rushed out, Ma Chao, who was originally aggressive and intended to attack the Black Mountain Army behind the river water, immediately stopped, and watched for a while, and quickly turned around and left.

A seemingly menacing cavalry battle disappeared like this, Zhao Yun also didn't have the intention to chase, watching his troops camp on the loess mountain beam two or three miles away from the street pavilion, facing him, the Liaodong Cavalry Regiment also set up a camp on the right side of Wang Hou's camp.

At the foot of the mountain, the Di people who cooperated with the attack to regain the water source also gave up and retreated to the south mountain.

The great armies looked at each other.

This is only among the three troops, and the most uncomfortable estimate is the Xingguo people on the mountain who obeyed Ma Chao's orders and sent troops to resist! From the mountain, they could just see the trickling river not far away, but they just couldn't get it, so they could only endure their thirst.

And it's more uncomfortable, as long as Wang Hou is not in a hurry, the advantage is in his hands, after all, he has 150,000 people.

It is estimated that Zhang He's street pavilion was also such a war rhythm! In the next two days, the follow-up 10,000 Goguryeo people and more than 20,000 Guanzhong vassal troops also followed, and under the watchful eyes of the Xingguo Di troops on the mountain and the Ma Chaoxi Liang Iron Cavalry in the distance, a large number of infantry ignored the consequences of ecological protection and soil erosion, and gathered dry weeds and firewood everywhere.

The strength of the people is great, tens of thousands of people have moved, and on the third day, the thick various ignitions have surrounded the street Pavilion Nanshan in a small half circle.

The battle for the street pavilion is here, and there is basically no suspense!
