Chapter 195: The General Ascends to the Heights and Soldiers Like Chess

As soon as the last word of the password was shouted out of the mouths of the various squad leaders, the sound of the uniform bowstring firing was almost simultaneously, and a rain of arrows with a strong whistling sound, like a rising dark cloud, rose from behind the formation and rushed straight at the incoming cavalry!

At this moment, the bows and arrows on both sides staggered in the air, colliding fiercely together, many arrows even fell directly into the air at the same time, and the red mist on both sides also rose, as the distance approached, the red mist was much thicker than just now, especially the cavalry, a hundred horses galloped, and the smoke pillars brought up also became red.

Thirty or forty horses stopped galloping, and the cavalry on the horses withdrew from the battle unwillingly, but Liu Yu's infantry formation was sparsely packed, and few people left, and this steely array was still standing.

Huan Xuan's face changed: "What's going on, the arrows shot on both sides are almost the same, why did the cavalry withdraw so much, but the infantry didn't die a few people?" Is Liu Yu cheating? ”

Sun Wuzhong smiled slightly: "Master Huan, don't be impatient, please take a closer look, Liu Yu's department is all double iron armor protection, ordinary soldiers, under the rules of the exercise, the middle three arrows are judged to leave, but the double iron armor can double the protection power, so only the six arrows will quit!" ”

Huan Xuan stood up, looked at it fixedly, and muttered: "Yes, why didn't I pay attention to this, I really wore double-layer iron armor, no wonder I looked at the speed at which they pulled their bows and released arrows, they were a little sluggish?" ”

Huangfu said indifferently: "Childe, if you take a closer look, only the sergeants holding lances in the front row are wearing double-layer iron armor, and the archers in the back row are still single-layer chain mail, which will not affect the speed of their arrows too much." It's just that this style of play confirms my judgment that Liu Yu wants to fight hand-to-hand with the cavalry, rather than solve the problem with bows and arrows. ”

Xie Xuan said calmly: "General Huangfu, if you were the commander of the cavalry, what would you do now?" ”

Huang Fushi's eyes flashed coldly: "It is the light cavalry that directly charges into battle, not the main force of the Xianbei armor and cavalry, when the Xianbei people dispatch the armor and cavalry, it is really the time to win the victory, in order to create the best surprise opportunity for their armor and cavalry, now they will definitely ambush and attack Liu Yu from all directions, and then find the right opportunity to give a fatal blow!" ”

Huan Xuan's brows furrowed: "Then can Liu Yu withstand it?" General Huangfu, you once followed the first examination to see these terrible ironclad cavalry with your own eyes, with Liu Yu's formation today, can you stop it? ”

A trace of deep fear suddenly flashed in Huangfu Fu's eyes: "Can't stop it, there is no army in this world that can stop the armor and cavalry, Liu Yu will definitely lose if he doesn't line up today!" ”

Wang Miaoyin's body shook slightly, and was about to speak, but he only heard a burst of wild whistles suddenly sounded in the valley, in the woods, in the grass, behind the rocks, like ants, suddenly rushed out of countless warriors, raised countless flags, all over the mountains, it seemed everywhere, and from the other side of the valley, rushed into hundreds of war horses, iron hooves like thunder, rain-like bows and arrows, and immediately attacked this infantry phalanx in the middle of the valley three miles square!

At this moment, even Xie Xuan's face changed, he stood up, and turned his head to look at Liu Xuanzhi: "What's going on?" How did the shadow troops ambush in the valley in advance? ”

Liu Gaozhi sneered: "This is not against the rules of martial arts, it is not said that the shadow troops must attack on horseback, they can completely dismount and ambush in the mountains and forests, just now General Huangfu said that Liu Yu did not reconnoiter in advance, and when he was in such a formation in the valley, when he was suddenly attacked by the enemy condescendingly, I was worried about it, and it really came true." However, it seems that Murong Nan is quite polite, and he did not send archers to occupy the high place, if our position is now occupied by Murong Nan, then Liu Yu is afraid that he will be defeated! ”

Murong Nan's laughter sounded from the side: "General Liu, you can see it clearly, fortunately it was not you who I met today, otherwise, if this place is occupied by you, I am afraid that I will be completely passive now." ”

The corners of Liu Gaozhi's mouth hooked, and he didn't look at Murong Nan, who was riding towards him with more than ten guards, and said calmly: "Actually, Liu Yu didn't think of this, but he was so proud that he wanted to use a dignified array to fight your cavalry in the front, instead of thinking of an ambush. Murong Nan, I'm afraid you also have the same thoughts, so you won't be a killer in this position! ”

Murong Nan was wearing a bronze ghost mask on his face, which made him look like a demon with a blue face and fangs, Wang Miaoyin's eyebrows frowned slightly, looked at Murong Nan, and said, "You are not commanding the battle below, what are you doing here?" Is the scenery better? ”

Murong Nan smiled and shook his head: "Although I won't ambush Liu Yu here and shoot arrows at him, but in this place, everything below can be seen in full view, Liu Yu's formation, I have to take a good look." ”

Wang Miaoyin shook her head: "In the end, this is just a martial arts exercise, if it is a real battlefield, your subordinates, your brothers are now bleeding and sacrificing, will you still laugh and watch the battle situation here so calmly?" ”

Murong Nan didn't respond directly, he said lightly: "My lord once told me when I was a teenager that we were born to be generals, we will be brave, and soldiers are chess, and now everyone who is fighting below is just my chess piece, they have no hatred with the people opposite, but they want to fight to the death with the people on the other side, but I need them to do this." In my case, there are no feelings, only victory and defeat! ”

Speaking of this, a terrifying killing intent flashed in his eyes: "I just want to use their lives and blood to discover Liu Yu's weakness, I don't need to care how many people are killed, I just need the final victory!" ”

Liu Gaozhi also stood up, walked to his side, stood side by side with him, watching the battle in the valley, Liu Yu's step formation, like a reef in the stormy waves, stood still, all the soldiers, each team firmly held the position, no matter how many arrows flew out of the smoke and dust in front, the heavy armored lance men standing on the front line were firmly stationed in place, and the archers in the rear decided the strength of the counterattack according to the opponent's bow and arrow.

From time to time, some Xianbei stragglers or rangers rushed out of the smoke and dust, trying to rush into battle, but they were fired at the same time, and they were shot directly, and a burst of red mist rose, so they could only withdraw stupidly, so that after fighting for most of the hour, the Xianbei people even injured at least more than 200 people with men and horses, and Liu Yu here, only withdrew less than 100 people.

Murong Nan nodded: "I see, pass my general order, ten rounds of arrow rain assault, and then all the front-line troops attack on all fronts, rush into the enemy formation and fight with them, after the front army enters the formation, the heavy cavalry charges, regardless of the enemy and me, kill!" ”
