Chapter 560: Careful Preparations

With Liu Yi's prestige in the Wuhuan army and his relationship with the Tuge brothers, it was obvious that he could personally lead the Wuhuan cavalry, and Fan Chou was no stranger to the Hun cavalry when he commanded the cavalry under Lu Bu's tent and Bingzhou; Moreover, he can be regarded as the first general who is good at cavalry that Liu Yi has met since he came to this world, and he is extremely confident in his ability to command the army.

Regarding Liu Yi's arrangement, the Tuge brothers naturally had no objections in their hearts, and were even extremely happy, after all, they could fight under the eldest brother they admired and be able to separate from the Huns; As for Yu Banze, he does not have the same autonomy as the Tuge brothers, since Shan Yu asked him to obey orders with Liu Yi, he also had to obey his orders, and Fan Chou was also a general under General Liu, so this arrangement would not insult him.

"General Fan, tomorrow you and the leader of the cavalry can go to Zhi'an Hall, go around to the northwest of Luoyang City, if you encounter the enemy on the road, you can attack it, if you reach Luoyang City all the way unhindered, then set up camp first, wait for my order." Liu Yi waved his hand, Liu Liu took a few guards to carry a huge map, on which Liu Yi marked the march route with red lines, which is the only way from Luoyang to Bingzhou, where the road is wide, conducive to cavalry attack, Fan Chou was quite familiar with the terrain here, and was the best candidate to lead the army.

Luoyang City was one of the few fortified cities in the world, although Dong Zhuo destroyed all the buildings in the city by a fire, but the main body of the city wall was not too damaged, Zhang Hu came to Sizhou and strengthened this place, and the defense alone was on the south of the important town of Jizhou, and Zhang Liao led nearly 50,000 troops to sit in the town, Han Sui Zhang Lu's coalition army is difficult to capture even if the strength is far superior, the enemy is very many cavalry, at this time it is the initiative, if the use of cavalry mobility around the fortified city to run everywhere is also the best policy, Liu Yi believed that even if Han Sui could not think of this method, Sima Yi would not be gone, and he let Fan Chou's army advance from the main road to prevent trouble!

"No!" Seeing that Liu Yi did not hesitate to hand over the 30,000 Hun cavalry into his hands, Fan Chou was also secretly grateful in his heart, and he also made up his mind to establish miraculous achievements in this battle of Sizhou.

"I and the Tuge brothers led two thousand guards cavalry and twenty thousand Wuhuan cavalry to take this route to the northeast of Luoyang, taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to attack, both people and horses have to play Liu's banner, thinking that it is a plan to confuse the enemy, Luoyang Chengjian and Wen Yuan sit in the enemy army is extremely difficult to go down for a while, this time Liu and General Fan divided their troops to enter it is to let the enemy army not know the reality of our army, otherwise if he uses guerrilla methods to disturb our state and county or even the back of the tiger prison is quite difficult, the first step of our army in this battle is to let the enemy army and not dare to divide the troops without authorization, When the two armies face each other, Liu has his own way to break the enemy! Liu Yi pointed to the black line and said to the generals, this is the route he and the Wuhuan cavalry army marched to.

The soldiers of the personal guard battalion that Liu Yi came to accompany him this time were all cavalry, that is, the cavalry army that Tai Shi Ci led to help Gan Ning break Gao Rou that day, and the strength of the combat power was by no means under the iron cavalry battalion! The people of the Wuhuan and Xiongnu tribes are all fierce and good at riding, but there is still a slight difference between the two, and Liu Yi, who has had a big war with them, can be said to know their characteristics quite well, the Hun cavalry is biased towards heavy cavalry, and the method of the battle formation is slightly better than that of Wuhuan, and the latter is good at riding and shooting, and the guerrilla technique is probably not under the Han army, so Fan Chou's road is to take a wide place and advance with a dignified formation, and the road chosen by Liu Yi is a shortcut to Luoyang, ready to give Han Sui and others a surprise!

Zhao Yuntie cavalry camp has a battalion of Xiliang led by Hua Xiong, which is very similar to the cavalry in the enemy's army, and it is also biased towards the heavy cavalry series, which is good for charging into battle, and the method of dealing with heavy cavalry with light cavalry is Liu Yi's forte.

Liu Yi's understanding of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was not under anyone at that time, and the combat power of the Xiliang Bu soldiers was also taught in the battle of Sili that year, it can be said that in addition to not being very familiar with Zhang Lu's Hanzhong army, he can be said to be a treasure of the enemy's length! As for his own Youzhou army, there is no need to mention that the Wuhuan Huns have all had actual combat experience, which is of great benefit to the arrangement of troops in this battle, and it is also the source of his confidence!

"Bo Ming, the rest of the infantry troops are led by you to follow General Fan, although it is an infantry army, but your marching speed should also be accelerated, and at the same time, you need to be careful of enemy attacks, and keep the news flowing with the front at any time, Liu hopes that you will not lag behind the cavalry for more than a day when you arrive at Luoyang City!" At this time, Liu Yi said to Gao Ran, this requirement seems to be extremely strict, but it is also based on Liu Yi's deep understanding of the soldiers under his command, the three battalions of White Tiger, Xuanwu, and Huwei are the most powerful troops in Youzhou, plus Gao Ran's ability to command the army, its speed and combat power will not be inferior to the cavalry of other races.

"No, there will be no trust from the owner!" Zhou Cang's face was excited when he heard this, he knew the weight of Liu Yi's order, at this time, he was full of more than 16,000 people, but these soldiers were what Liu Yi could really trust, especially the two elite soldiers of the White Tiger Xuanwu, whether it was rumors or actual combat, he knew the strength of their strength, this time the lord handed over all these elites to his own hands, which shows that he fully trusts himself, how can he not work hard to repay?

"Zigang, the two armies are fighting, logistics is also the top priority, this time the whole army should be entrusted to you, the required grain, grass, carts, horses, people, and equipment should be deployed in detail, to ensure that the main force of our army is dedicated to the war and has no worries, this is wartime, you must also take military law first, if someone does not respect the order or the order is not enough, it must be dealt with strictly!" Liu Yi bowed his head slightly and said to Zhang Hong, he has been in Bingzhou for many years, and he can already completely control the place, Tian Yu wants to leave it to Xi Zhicai to sit in charge of the overall situation, and he also has full confidence in Zhang Hong's ability.

"No, Gang will do everything in his power to ensure the needs of the army." Listening to Liu Yi's seriousness, Zhang Hong's heart is also a pang, he and his brother Zhang Zhao are good at governance, but this war is the first time to experience, but this logistics and transportation is also his strength, and he replied without hesitation.

"In this case, Zigang will go down first to arrange, and all the needs of each battalion will be necessary before the fifth watch tomorrow morning, and General Gao will also return to the camp with the generals to reorganize the army, and General Fan will stay." For the pre-war preparations, no matter who the opponent is, Liu Yi will not be the slightest sloppy, after Zhang Hong and Gao Ran went, he explained in detail in the mansion for Yu Jian and the Tuge brothers and others the formations and key points that need to be paid attention to in the battle of several cavalry troops, the language used is concise and to the point, and the Tuge brothers nodded again and again.

If you carefully observe Liu Yi's hundreds of battles since the beginning of the army, you will find that he attaches great importance to the combat power of the cavalry, such as running wolf, Luoyang, Liyang and other battles can be recorded in history as a model of cavalry warfare in the late Han Dynasty. It's really hard to look at the world now in the cavalry? In terms of use, find out the person who is better than Liu Yi, which is inseparable from his hard work and rich practical experience after coming to this world, and this matter is also where Liu Yi is quite proud of not touching the light of the traverser.

Since ancient times, the formation of the cavalry army has been ever-changing, and many classic tactics have evolved in a famous battle, but the use of the magic has always been in one mind, and the formation must also be in line with the characteristics of the cavalry in order to play an effective role, and it is necessary to adapt to the enemy when it comes to the enemy, and now Liu Yi has commanded the cavalry and has quite the style of using the blood dragon swallowing the halberd! If he commands any two battalions in the iron cavalry battalion, he can definitely do it like an arm, but the two cavalry armies of the Huns and Wuhuan are also relatively unfamiliar to him, so the tactics and formations should be as concise as possible, and now he has no time to practice these two cavalry armies, just need them to master some routines suitable for themselves It is enough, too much explanation will be counterproductive.

Among the people here, the Tuge brothers don't have too much scheming, no matter what the eldest brother says, they will try their best to do it, and what Liu Yi said is not difficult for them, Yu Qiang has a deep study of sinology, especially soldiers and horses, more than ten years ago, and has also used it in the Hun cavalry, but the two phases can not be integrated with little effect, and now I see Liu Yi can get to the point with a few simple words, and the length of the Hun cavalry is even more accurate, and the awe in my heart is even worse at this time, Xindao: As long as this person is in one day, they must not be enemies of the Han Dynasty.

As a cavalry general, Fan Chou's understanding of the lord's words is far higher than that of the Tuge brothers and others, so he is also more impressed by Liu Yi's ability to control the cavalry, in fact, the formation and tactics he said are the most basic and simple, but when the two are combined, they will have good power, Fan Chou knows very well in his heart, the power of the so-called battle formation is not too high, the key is whether it is appropriate, and what Liu Yi said is all about the right medicine.

This explanation lasted for more than two hours, but everyone didn't seem to feel how long it was under Liu Yi's simple words, but they listened to it with relish and impressed, almost every battle method formation Liu Yi will put forward clear examples to verify, the study of the art of war is like his hard training of the blood dragon halberd for decades and has never relaxed, he is not afraid that after handing these over to the Yu Tuge brothers and others, it will be disadvantageous to himself, These are only basic combat methods, and all the applications still need to be improvised, and it is difficult to master them in detail without the usual painstaking exercises, and he obviously will not say much about this training method.

When Yu Jian and the Tuge brothers and others could already feel the taste of what Liu Yi said, Lang Sheng and Fan Chou went to their respective camps with them, and they had to go to inspect the details of the battalion sergeants and soldiers before the war, and summoned the generals in the army to make some detailed explanations before the war. This is even more crucial.
