There is a cavalry tactic, which blocks the strong with the weak and attacks the weak with the strong to drive the rout to attack the formation, which is called the inverted bead curtain.

This move will only happen if there is a large difference in the military quality of the opposing sides, and it will require the cooperation of a large number of cavalry.

The key is to "block the strong with the weak, attack the weak with the strong, drive out the attacker, block the one, all rout", drive the enemy's rout to impact the enemy's main force, and transmit the fear to the whole army, in the end, the defeat is like an avalanche, and it is difficult to save the gods!

In ancient Chinese history, the elite cavalry corps of the imperial court and nomads were often able to defeat a large number of peasant rebels with a devastating momentum, which was aimed at the characteristics of the peasant army being mostly infantry and poor armor and weapons.

In fact, many people saw the cavalry rushing towards them with great vigour, and their instinctive reaction was to flee rather than resist, and only highly trained hoplites could form a formation to defeat the cavalry onslaught. So the above situation is not surprising.

Here, the main problem is how to roll up the first layer of beaded curtains. For any army, the vanguard troops sent out are the elite of the elite, and they cannot be defeated casually.

And now, the infantry units have already defeated the vanguard led by Zhang Huang, and what they have to do now is to expel them from the rear and let them retreat according to the path they need, that is, let the defeated army rush towards their own formation.

Sure enough, in the face of the situation after the rout, rushing to the main formation, although Zhang Er felt bad, he was not so ruthless, and he was able to be ruthless and directly ordered the whole army to shoot the rout.

Such a decision also made him lose the opportunity to turn the situation around.

With the impact of the rout, the three cavalry rushed left and right in the interior, killing the Zhang Er army to pieces.

"Don't panic! Everyone let their own people and rushed up to block the Han army! Zhang Er shouted loudly in the army.

Zhang Er's mind was actually correct, but he didn't think about the actual operation. He wanted his soldiers to let his army rout, but his soldiers were not robots, so it was impossible not to be affected by the rout.

Fear, chaos as if it will be infected, Zhang Er's headquarters is in a mess, although Zhang Er wants to regroup and rectify the army, but the helpless thing has come to this, it is really a defeat like a mountain, the overall situation has been decided, Zhang Er is completely lacking in skills, so he has to lead the pro-guard department who can still command Ruyi to retreat.

As Yang Zaixing, Luo Cheng and others successively killed Zhang Er's army, they did not turn around and continue to attack Zhang Er's army, but cooperated with the rear army to drive away the defeated Zhang Er army.

Gao Xianzhi and others in the rear continued to drive Zhang Er's army, and it can be said that there was almost no fighting, just driving Zhang Huang's rout army to rush over, which had already made Zhang Er's army collapse. They continued to chase and kill, driving the enemy army to continue to rout.

The three cavalry crushed on both sides, but they cut off the possibility of them fleeing in other directions, and could only follow the route they came, all the way to Chen Yu's army.

With such a huge movement, Chen Yu of the rear army naturally saw it.

"Ambushed?" Chen Yu was surprised, "Could it really be the conspiracy of the Han army this time?" ”

"The generals obeyed the order, suspended the march, and stood by the garrison!" Chen Yu pressed down on the army.

"That's not right!"

Without waiting for the general to convey Chen Yu's order, Li Zuoche suddenly exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yu looked at Li Zuoche suspiciously, "Zhang Er's army has been defeated, if we don't form a formation and stop the rout, then we will be defeated!" ”

"But let's organize a garrison here, what should you do if the army in front of you is coming over?" Li Zuoche said hurriedly.

"Let them pass!" Chen Yu hadn't sensed it yet, and opened his mouth without thinking.

"Fang them over? Wasn't our position broken by our own people? Li Zuoche explained with a smile, "Before the enemy army came over, we ourselves had already been broken through the formation by the defeated friendly army, how could we resist the pursuers behind?" ”

"Ahh Chen Yu was not stupid, and reacted immediately.

As mentioned earlier, the tactics of inverted bead curtains are not difficult to understand, but they are very difficult to operate in practice. But in the same way, once the opposing army has formed a sweeping force, it is also difficult to break it.

"And that doesn't let them pass, keep them out of the formation? How about guiding them to the flanks? Chen Yu asked.

"General, what do you think General Zhang Er will do in the face of such a situation?" Li Zuoche sneered, "If it was close at the beginning, everyone trusted each other, and I believe that General Zhang Er would be able to see the problem clearly at once." But now that the general and General Zhang Er are on a close toes, in this case, do you think General Zhang Er will directly draw his sword against each other? ”

"This ............" Chen Yu heard this, and suddenly he didn't know what to say. With his current relationship with Zhang Er, Chen Yu believes that Zhang Er will really kill directly into his own formation.

"So what do we do?" Chen Yu hurriedly asked.

"Since the other party has gone around in such a big circle, there must be more than such a little arrangement!" Li Zuoche said in a deep voice, "Defeating us may not be their whole goal, taking advantage of the situation to capture the city gate or even the entire city is the key!" ”

"What?" Chen Yu was taken aback, he really didn't expect the Han army to have such a big plan.

"Let's retreat at once and go back to guard the gates! Guide the rout into the city! Li Zuoche said categorically.

"To guard the city gates?" Chen Yu wondered.

"The Han army must take advantage of the rout to retreat into the city and pretend to be a yellow turban rout army to blend into the city, take the opportunity to seize the city gate, and seize the city. We can't let them succeed, so we must guard the gates. Li Zuoche hurriedly explained, "Don't say more, hurry up and make arrangements!" ”

"Okay!" Chen Yu nodded, and did not refute Li Zuoche's opinion this time.

"Come on, the front army becomes the rear army, the rear army turns to the front army, let's withdraw to the city!" Chen Yu did not hesitate, and opened his mouth to order, "The rear army will organize a round of defense to stop their rout." ”

"Send someone to open the city gates, and let the city be on guard!" Li Zuoche reminded.

"Yes!" Chen Yu didn't say a word, and directly accepted Li Zuoche's opinion, "Take the city gate as the center, send scouts to the surrounding areas to find out if there is any Han army lurking!" ”

"The Han army is disguised as a yellow turban and the army is defeated, and it can't be detected!" Li Zuoche reminded, "The general should not be in a hurry to expand the results of the battle, just guard the city gate first to ensure that the city is not lost!" ”

At that moment, Chen Yu's troops in the rear army withdrew at full speed at the suggestion of Li Zuoche and under the command of Chen Yu, and formed a defensive line at the gate of the city to guard against the Han army's plan to capture the city.
