Chapter 563: The Battle of Jingzhou Begins

In Luoyang City, Zhang Hu, who was poisoned in his body, saved his life after Liu Yi sent Wang Xinran's life-saving pill with flying feathers, and after many days of careful conditioning, he finally gradually recovered, but at this time, Hangu Pass had been lost, Yang Ming, the commander of the Qinglong Battalion, died on the battlefield, and Han Sui Zhang Lu hundreds of thousands of allied soldiers came to Luoyang City, and the situation was very different from before he fell into a coma! At this time, Zhang Hu, who hated himself for being entrusted by his father-in-law, had already begun to plan for the current situation wholeheartedly.

"The military division has any explanation, although he said that with the last general, a few days ago, the lord passed the book that he has arrived in the party, presumably the army will enter Sizhou in a few days, the current situation is already like this, our army is at a disadvantage everywhere, but Luoyang Tiger Prison has been operating for many years, and will never let the enemy take advantage of it, as long as these two places are not lost, the enemy army will not be able to say that it will be a complete victory, and our army still has a chance to reverse, and the military division must not overwork." Zhang Liao said on the side, he could understand the regret in Zhang Hu's heart, and he was afraid that he would be weak because of this.

"Wen Yuan is roughly not bad, the Tiger Prison Luoyang is indeed the key to this battle, only the stable defense can usher in a turnaround, if I expect it is not bad, this time Han Sui will have a master in the army to help, and most of them are inseparable from Yanzhou Cao Cao, the enemy army is so carefully planned, and will also think of the fortification of these two places, our army must strictly guard against foreign enemies at the same time, but also closely consider the internal trends, Wen Yuan, you have to allocate enough troops for emergency purposes, and you need to immediately make a book to explain this matter to the Tiger Prison Gongxing!" When Zhang Hu heard this, he said that once he calmed down and analyzed the situation, he already had some countermeasures.

"No, Liao will immediately write a book as soon as he returns to the camp, and now there are still 3,000 soldiers in the Qinglong Battalion in Luoyang, which can be used for vigilance, I am afraid that the enemy army may not be able to succeed if he wants to use the method of combining the inside and the outside!" In the battle of Hangu, the Qinglong battalion faced more than ten times the enemy army with its own brave and bloody battle, and finally except for the three thousand soldiers who were safely evacuated under the leadership of Liao Hua to spread the information to the Zhang Liao camp, the rest were all killed in battle, and no one threw themselves into the enemy, showing the strength of Liu Yi's old fourth battalion undoubtedly, Zhang Liao, Zhang Yan and even Han Sui and other enemy troops admired the loyalty and courage of the Qinglong battalion.

"Well, Liao Yuanjian can be regarded as a talent, and he can be entrusted with important tasks, as long as our army can stabilize the situation in the city, it will be safe to use Luoyang's strength and the ability of the two generals. The lord is decisive, as long as the lord is the lord and no matter how many people and horses come with him, he can greatly boost the heart of the Sizhou army, and I see that the lord also wants to win by surprise, and does not want to fall into the enemy's plan, this time it is to help the Wuhuan Hun cavalry, its purpose is by no means as simple as holding Sizhou, although the loss of Hangu is extremely heavy for our army, but at this time the enemy's intentions are already obvious, our army only needs to deal with it without having to bother guessing, the momentum of the Sizhou war is inevitable, The two generals also had to keep an eye on the movements of the enemy and the enemy at all times to cooperate with the lord. At this time, Zhang Hu didn't know the plan in Liu Yi's heart, but the tacit understanding between the two for many years could guess nine times out of ten, Liu Yi has never been a passive defensive character, and there will definitely be a thunderous counterattack in the move!

"The military advisor can rest assured that Liao and General Zhang will make proper arrangements." Zhang Liao's first words said, at this time the Qingmang outside the house was already knocking on the door to remind the second general that he had been talking for too long, and the second general saw this and left, Zhang Hu also felt weak and dizzy after these words, so he could only let him report the detailed military situation inside and outside the city every day, and also knew that he could do more to recuperate his body.

That is, at the same time that Zhang Hu and Zhang Liao and Zhang Yan discussed the affairs of Sizhou, Cao Cao's army secretly assembled on the border of Yuzhou attacked Jingzhou with an overwhelming momentum, this time the Cao army can be described as elite, a total of 300,000 troops, of which the main force was led by Cao Cao to storm Nanyang, and the other was under the leadership of the general Xiahoudun bypassing the enemy in front of him, running to Xiangyang from the flank, although the Jingzhou front line has been paying attention to the movements of the Cao army and making full preparations, but the fierceness of the Cao army's offensive still makes them unable to resist, The gap between the actual combat experience and combat power of the two armies was undoubtedly revealed, Cao's army broke through to Nanyang for 80 miles in one day, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong reluctantly relied on Xinye Chengchi to suspend the enemy's offensive, and immediately sent people to Jingzhou for help, and the battle of Jingxiang also began.

Due to the slow transmission of news at the end of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yi at this time obviously did not get the news, he was leading the guard battalion and the Wuhuan cavalry on the way to Luoyang, the falcon flying feather soared in the sky above it, and did not find the assembly of the enemy army from its flying posture, in addition to the natural sharpness of the wolf king's body, the existence of the flying feather is Liu Yi's greatest reliance on not being afraid of enemy ambushes. Of course, the affairs of the military must be cautious, Liu Yi will use his own feelings and falcons but will not rely on them completely, and it is also his habit to go out every time he goes out to fight.

While on the march, Liu Yi suddenly saw a scout rushing in front of him, and immediately knew that there must be a military situation in front of him, and immediately raised his right arm, and the cavalry of the personal guard battalion slowed down until it stopped in a very short time, and the Wuhuan knight behind him was also average. Before leaving, Liu Yi specially went to the Wuhuan camp to meet those soldiers of the foreign race, and his arrival also aroused great interest in the Wuhuan soldiers, after all, only a few people have seen Liu Yi in person, and more are known in the legend of the bravery of this famous Han general, even the most heroic warriors of the clan are also sighing to themselves, the men on the grassland have a kind of worship in their nature for force, and even more so for Liu Yi in front of him!

All this makes Liu Yi's control of this alien cavalry become twice the result with half the effort, those who are fortunate enough to be able to discuss with Liu Yi in the tent The cavalry leaders are extremely cooperative, it took nearly an hour for Liu Yi to explain some of the basic gestures and flags in the Han cavalry in detail and the Wuhuan cavalry know, people shouting horses in the war It is impossible for everyone to have Liu Yi Zhang Fei's general voice, so there is a special set of flags and gestures in the cavalry, which seem simple but can play a great role in actual combat, Of course, due to the tight time, what Liu Yi said were some of the most basic routines, and even if he said more complicated ones, it would not be effective.

The riding skills of the warriors of the Wuhuan and Xiongnu tribes are by no means under Liu Yi's elite iron cavalry camp, after all, they have to stay on horseback for half their lives, this riding has become an instinct of the body rather than the skill of the Han army, but due to the poverty of their own culture, there is no battle formation method and military skills, and in later generations, when the immortal hero Temujin appeared to give these two to the cavalry, the Mongolian iron cavalry can be said to be swept across the country with a devastating momentum, relatively speaking, the resistance of the Southern Song Dynasty has been extremely tenacious, It's just that there was no peerless military genius who could compete with it at that time, and Liu Yi in this world did not dare to call himself a military genius, but he could use it in the future.

"General, there are traces of the enemy's Xiliang Iron Cavalry in a village fifteen miles ahead, there are about more than 1,000 people up and down, seeing that the village is full of smoke and dust, it seems that it has been looted, please make a decision." Liu Yi's army can be used as scouts to probe the military intelligence is the best in the cavalry, not only agile and equestrian, but also need to have a flexible mind, which allows them to better explore the enemy's situation while preserving themselves, which is also one of the manifestations of Liu Yi's great importance to the war and military situation.

"Oh, are you familiar with the terrain ahead?" Liu Yi bowed his head slightly when he heard this, and immediately dismounted and asked the scout, he was very resistant to this kind of looting of the people in his heart, although the chaotic times in the late Han Dynasty were constantly in the midst of military disasters, but it was extremely rare for the real princes to directly slaughter the people between the wars, Cao Cao entered Xuzhou to avenge his father, and the method of feeding people was also needed by the military situation, and it was difficult to avoid looting in Liu Yi's experience, but killing the people was taboo for all the princes, after all, they were all people of the Han Dynasty, but he did not dare to guarantee Han Sui and others in front of him.

"General, the terrain ahead is like this... Hearing this, the scouts came to the side of the road and took out their waist knives and roughly carved them on the ground, these scouts in addition to the conditions mentioned above must also have the skills of painting military sketches, Liu Yi has a special training course for them in the Youzhou Martial Academy, and the scout camp must also keep the local terrain in mind before each battle. Although such a sketch is not a surprise due to the angle of view, it still provides favorable conditions.

"Okay, Liu Mou knows that Han Sui and Zhang Wei will practice the method of cavalry raiding, but more than a thousand cavalry soldiers dare to go out of the battle It is too much to underestimate Liu, today is going to win the first battle, Ziping, you lead five hundred cavalry troops from here to kill and defeat the enemy, Yuanba, your five hundred cavalry army enters the mountain village from here, Hong Biao, you give me a detour to cut off the enemy's retreat, these people can't let one go, Ah Hu and Ah Leopard, one of you will set off with Ziping and one with Yuanba, and solve the enemy army within half an hour!" When Liu Yi observed the terrain, the generals of Guan Hai and the Tuge brothers and others had already surrounded them, and after a little thought, Lang Sheng had a plan in his heart, and at the moment he knew the sketch with his hands and gave orders very fluently, the number of enemy troops was about 1,000 and in the village, it was common sense that flying feathers were difficult to see, but there was no large number of enemy troops around, and the mountain village was in a low-lying place, and it was not too difficult to completely annihilate the enemy army with the strength of the iron cavalry battalion cavalry under the sudden attack, and it was not too difficult to let the Tuge brothers go to observe the Han army's battle.

"No, no, no, I know big brother!" Guan Hai and the others never said much, after bowing down to receive the order, they went their own way, the Tuge brothers did not dare to disobey Liu Yi's order in the slightest, the cavalry of the pro-guard battalion was quickly divided into three teams by Hong Biao first, Guan Hai Li Yuanba followed, each knight used a thick cloth to firmly wrap the horse's hooves for the effect of concealment, and the cooperation between the three will have a special connection technique, although it is only a small pre-war preparation, but the quiet deployment and skilled movements of the pro-guard cavalry still make the Tuge brothers admire, after all, this is not a drill.

"The order goes down, and the whole army will dismount and rest by the side of the road, and there will not be a moment of noise." Seeing a few people going, Liu Yi went to the side of the road to sit down and rest after giving the order, and the speed of dismounting after hearing the order of the hundreds of cavalry soldiers in the guard battalion was neatly and consistently, relatively speaking, the Wuhuan cavalry after that seemed to be slightly loose, the real elite is by no means only in wartime to show the essence of fierceness, and every move in peacetime can already be seen in the eyes of everyone in the art of war.

Liu Yi, who was sitting on the side of the road, was no longer thinking about the battle in front of him at this time, he had enough confidence in the combat power of the guard battalion, and the battle situation was already doomed in his heart under the current situation, what he was thinking about now was that the map was close to this village one after another, maybe it was also in the midst of the enemy's raid at this time, no matter whether this strategy was from Sima Yi's hand or not, it would bring a heavy blow to Sizhou, I only hope that Zhang Liao can respond to this in advance, Population is also a part of Liu Yi's strength, and the most regrettable thing now is that the iron cavalry battalion is not around, otherwise Liu Yi will be completely sure that the enemy who dares to plunder everywhere will pay a heavy price, but now he only has the Wuhuan iron cavalry in his hands, and it is difficult to bloom in many places and cause huge damage to the enemy!
