Huachi River, also known as the gourd river, was called Longshui in ancient times, the water quality is brackish, because the riverbed is narrow and tortuous, the shape resembles the "gourd" to get the name. At the confluence of the Sanyang River and the Wei River in Tianshui, it is the first major tributary of the Wei River.

Dahua vanguard iron cavalry, armor, flags floating, in batches of boats to cross the gourd-shaped river, arrived at the record, after the formation of the army, continue to run north.

They were in a hurry, so they had to arrive at the combat site in advance, familiarize themselves with the terrain, set up crossbow cars, drop black fire explosives, etc.

The distance of three hundred miles was full of cavalry, and a day's march was almost there.

"Father, at this marching speed, you can reach the designated place and camp at night!" Pei Yuanqing rode to Pei Renji's side and told him about the march.

Pei Renji is considered a veteran of the three dynasties, from Emperor Wen of Sui, Emperor Yang of Sui, to the founding emperor of Dahua, he is old and strong, leading troops in a good way, as the commander of the vanguard army this time, he nodded on horseback and said: "Very good, go at full speed, arrive at the designated position and set up camp, send the patrol guards of the scout camp in advance, continue to find out the situation at night, find the Turkic vanguard in advance, and can't let them sneak attack our army's big camp at night!" ”

"Understood, Father!" Pei Yuanqing sped up and went to explain the task to the lieutenant of Zuo Yuhou's camp.

This vanguard army continued to advance in an orderly manner, without stopping, and when the sun was set and it was getting late, it finally arrived at a hilly area of Luochuan Ridge.

Bypassing this col, there is a dry riverbed leading to the sandy area, the terrain is sparse, the vegetation is mostly northwest-hardy plants, in this spring March, the distant back of the mountain range, also began to be lush.

However, the soil here is salty, arid and rainless, so it is not conducive to the growth of vegetation, there are many poplars, pines and cypresses on the mountain, and there are few wild grasses on the ground.

"Set up camp quickly!"

"The camp masters of the Marquis of Yu pay attention, be careful!"

"Beware of Turkic cavalry attacking at night!"

One after another, military orders spread, and every thousand-strong team was encamped, and half an hour later, white tents bloomed like blooming flowers in the area of the mountain col.

Pei Renji's father and son, there are already more than a dozen generals and dozens of lieutenants, all of whom have gathered in Shuai Zhang to analyze the strategies and plans for tomorrow's battle.

"If it is not bad as expected, tomorrow at noon, the vanguard of our army will meet with the Turkic vanguard army, the enemy has 30,000 iron cavalry, 60,000 war horses, take turns to change horses, from the grassland to Shangjun, more than a thousand miles, must also be tired, according to the Turkic temperament, knowing that our vanguard army is only 20,000, it will definitely not be in the eyes, and plan to eat us, therefore, impatient, underestimating the enemy, arrogance, is the weakness of the Turks, our army should make good use of it." Bae Renji got straight to the point and directly pointed out the theme of tomorrow's battle.

"General, I don't know the tactics of tomorrow, how to arrange it? Is it the Glaive Array, or the Fish Scale Array, the Sharp Arrow Array, and the Fangyuan Array. Adjutant General Zhao Longfeng asked.

"Regarding the formation, Your Majesty has already explained it in advance, and it will use the car of the Han Dynasty Champion Hou to suspend the formation, but it has been re-deduced and modified by His Majesty and General Li Jing, and this time it will be a tough confrontation with the Turkic Iron Cavalry!" Bae Renji said coldly.

"The car hangs in the air!" All the soldiers in the account nodded, they had also rehearsed when they were training, but they had not yet used it on a large scale, especially against the Turks.

In the past, the cavalry of the Central Plains was weak, and when fighting head-on with the Turks, they all defended first and then counterattacked, using bow and arrow phalanxes, infantry phalanxes, and shield phalanxes to block the impact of the Turkic cavalry first, and then waited for the Turks' sharp spirit to descend, and then used their own cavalry to counterattack, outflanking and counterattacking from the left and right, this conventional formation was the majority.

And the car suspension array, from the "Huns are not destroyed, what is home" of the Han Dynasty "champion Hou" Huo Quai, a powerful cavalry formation, in his limited conquest of the battlefield, in the face of the Huns iron cavalry six battles and six victories, the Huns who fought were afraid of hearing "Huo", unfortunately Huo Qubing died young, and the formation was gradually lost.

At the beginning, before Li Jing and Luo Zhaoyun attacked Chang'an, Li Jing had given him this formation, and Luo Zhaoyun used the car suspension formation according to his modern thinking and the use of black powder.

In fact, this kind of formation, the principle is relatively simple, there is no layout of the nine palace gossip, etc., it is equivalent to the enhanced version of the power of the assault tactics, but it is much more domineering than the assault, and it is not like the assault like a swarm of swarms, and pays more attention to the interval between the horses.

Front, back, left, right, the position and distance of the cavalry, and the use of various weapons are all key, because there are gaps, so that the enemy army has a gap to hide, so as not to block the road of the front army, leaving the cavalry behind to clean up and slaughter, each stage of the gap, running position, weapons, etc., as much as possible to play the efficiency.

"General, tomorrow's children are willing to take the lead!" Pei Yuanqing still called his father a general in front of people, as a sign of official business.

Pei Renji looked at his son in his early twenties, dressed in armor, with a magnificent instrument and extraordinary martial arts, and had some hesitation in his heart, although he knew very well that this was an opportunity to make great contributions, but in the same way, there was also a huge danger, after all, charging into battle, ten thousand horses galloping, not child's play.

But Pei Yuanqing's eyes were full of eagerness and high morale, Pei Renji couldn't bear to hit his son's morale, nodded, and said: "Yes, be more careful tomorrow, the sword has no eyes, and while breaking the Turks, pay attention to safety!" ”

"Yes!" Pei Yuanqing clenched his fists, and his blood surged.

"General, I am willing to follow the young general to fight against the Turks!"

"Willing to be lowly and willing!"

Several generals stood up and fought together, fearless of danger.

Pei Renji saw that his morale was commendable, and there was a smile on his face that was vicissitudes, and said, "Okay, you four partial generals, let's take the lead in charging together tomorrow!" ”
