203 Attack Camp III
In the military camp of Lu Yi, 800 elite infantry soldiers who had been prepared long ago were deployed under the leadership of Lu Yi.
When Le Jin saw this, he ordered the pikemen to assemble, preparing to use the pikemen to attack first and kill the infantry of Lu Yi.
When Lu Yi saw it, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face, this Lejin on the other side was still too tender. He suddenly ordered: "Wait until this captain of spearmen comes up, and shoot this group with me with a strong crossbow." ”
Le Jin commanded the pikemen to rush forward, Lu Yi ordered his men and horses to remain motionless, and when Le Jin led the troops to the front, suddenly all of them were short, revealing the kicking soldiers behind him, and then a burst of strong crossbows fired. Immediately, the pikemen under the command of Le Jin were shot down, and the wails sounded in all directions, and the morale of the Qingzhou army was greatly weakened for a while.
Le Jin's face was pale, and he hurriedly ordered to retreat, but he didn't want Lu Yi to lead his troops to kill at this time. Fortunately, Le Jin had a lot of troops, and hurriedly transferred the men and horses from the left and right to come to support and cover the retreat of his injured men. Lu Yi didn't chase after Le Jin, but after repelling Le Jin, he ordered someone to lift up the antlers and other things, and set them up outside the camp.
Seeing that Lu Yi ordered the people to rebuild the camp, Le Jin's heart was full of anger, this time the attack, the situation that was finally opened, returned to the beginning, and Le Jin also killed and injured many subordinates.
Le Jin is really brave, and at the moment he ordered thousands of foot soldiers, holding swords and shields, braving arrows, and marching straight forward, without any hesitation. Behind them were thousands of archers, throwing arrows into the camp of the Yakini.
The speed of the foot is relatively slow, and although the rate of fire of the crossbow is slower than that of the bow and arrow, the crossbow arrow is fast and powerful, and it is more powerful than the bow and arrow. Although the people and horses of the Lejin Department have shields as protection, among the 1,000 foot soldiers, there are still people who are hit by arrows.
Liu Bei sat on his horse and watched from afar as more than a thousand foot soldiers braved the rain of arrows to move forward, and every step was really accompanied by blood. I couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that these good men didn't die on the battlefield to defend the country, but died in the civil war, it's a pity and ......a pity."
After that, Liu Bei's face was unbearable.
Cheng Yu said: "The so-called mercy is not in charge of the army, how can there be a person who takes the world without hurting his life." ”
Xi Zhicai also said: "Today's casualties are for the peace of tomorrow, and the lord must not have the kindness of a woman." ”
Liu Bei smiled bitterly, he came from an era of peace, and he couldn't say that he had never seen a dead person in his life, but even in that place where the war in time and space was the most powerful, there was absolutely no such cruel scene. Therefore, in the final analysis, Liu Bei is a little less "decisive" than the heroes of this era!
Replaced by characters like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, no matter how many people will die, a group of ordinary people would have been arrested before they camped. Although Cheng Yu also mentioned this method, it was still rejected by Liu Bei.
Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai whispered and discussed in a low voice, but Liu Bei just stared at the battlefield.
I saw that Le Jin was brave and unparalleled, and he was extremely brave to lead this foot soldier, although the casualties were not small, but he braved the rain of arrows and marched extremely fast.
In front of the Luyi camp, Le Jin ordered people to raise the shield in their hands high to form a shield array, regardless of whether the Luyi army was stabbed with a gun or an arrow, just hold the shield to defend themselves.
Then, he ordered the rest of the foot soldiers to prepare to push away the antlers and other objects again under the protection of the shield array.
The crossbow arrows were constantly shot out in the Koji rebel army, and under the attack of the crossbow arrows on the opposite side, these foot soldiers of the Lejin Department did not form a formation while knocking down the fortifications of the Koji Yi. As a result, as soon as he pushed away Lu Yi's camp, he was led by Lu Yi to take advantage of the situation to fight a counterattack, Lejin's formation was scattered, and he hurriedly ordered this group of foot soldiers to temporarily retreat, giving way to the big pikemen under his command to attack, and wanted to lead the troops to attack.
However, Lu Yi did not chase after him, but instead repaired the camp here, and used a strong bow and a hard crossbow to point at Lejin's department, if Lejin dared to rush up with pikemen, he would naturally greet with a strong crossbow.
In the distance, Liu Bei, Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai watched the battle, and when they saw Le Jin being repulsed again, Liu Bei felt a little helpless. According to historical records, Le Jin is a cattle man who has many "first arrival" records, and he is already the best general under Liu Bei to attack the city, at least in Liu Bei's opinion, Le Jin is the best general at attacking the city, and even Le Jin can't take this camp, and sending others to it is probably in vain.
If there are too many troops sent, and they are afraid that Yuan Shao will send troops to attack the back road, it seems that now it is difficult to really fight logistics with Yuan Shao, and this way of fighting logistics will cause too much damage to the economic and agricultural production of the entire society, and it has always been something that Liu Bei has tried his best to avoid.
At this moment, Xi Zhicai suddenly said: "Lord, I carefully interrogated the captured Jizhou cavalry yesterday and asked Yuan Benchu how he defeated Gongsun Zhan. Yuan Benchu first used a small number of elite soldiers led by Lu Yi as the vanguard, frustrated Gongsun Zhan's spirit, and then used the army to cover up, and Gongsun Chan was defeated by Yuan Shao in this way. Today's situation is so similar to yesterday's defeat of Gongsun Zhan! ”
Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard this, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu would not end up with Gongsun Zhan, so he hurriedly asked, "Then how should I meet the enemy?" ”
Xi Zhicai said: "Since you can't defeat this camp, the lord might as well use a small number of soldiers and horses to monitor, and then attack Yuan Benchu's camp with a large army." Those who conquered Jizhou with the lord, Yuan Benchu, is not a Yiyi, and the lord really has no need to entangle with him here. ”
"This ......" Liu Bei thought for a while, and felt that it seemed to make sense, this was like playing chess, and the opponent's old handsome would be considered to be winning, otherwise it would be useless to kill no matter how many cars and horses were killed, but if you didn't kill the cars and horses, how could you check the opponent's old handsome. A Lu Yi is so difficult to fight, isn't Yuan Shao's camp even more difficult to attack.
At this time, Cheng Yu also said to Liu Bei: "The prince might as well give it a try, the famous generals of Xiliang in Luyi, and the men and horses under his men are all elite soldiers who have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and Yuan Benchu's men and horses cannot be compared with him." Yuan Benchu's men and horses have not actually experienced much war, although they cannot be said to be a rabble, but they are not an elite division. Therefore, Yuan Benchu only wanted to reuse Lu Yi as a general, and now he might as well give Yuan Benchu's Chinese army a try to see how much ability Yuan Benchu has. ”
Hearing Cheng Yu say the same, Liu Bei made up his mind, let Lu Yi go first, attack Yuan Shao first, if he couldn't capture Yuan Benchu's camp, he would immediately return to the army, and fight logistics and food with Yuan Shao. It's better than being so dead.
"How are you going to fight? What are the strategies of the two of you? Liu Bei asked. Now that he had made up his mind, Liu Bei no longer hesitated and immediately asked.
"The lord should first use a group of men and horses to watch the elite soldiers of the Lu Yi department, and then use the army to deal with the rabble under the command of Yuan Benchu, and there is no need to use any too advanced strategies, the lord sent a general, led the troops to feint to attack the left camp of Yuan Benchu, and then personally led the troops to make a gesture of breaking through from the right battalion, feint to attack the right battalion, and finally put into the selection of the front to attack the middle battalion, as long as an opening is opened, let the armored cavalry assault, as long as the assault to the rear of Yuan Benchu's battalion...... I expect his army to collapse! ”
Xi Zhicai said, it is really not a too advanced strategy.
"Yes, Yuan Benchu set up this large battalion, divided into three battalions, connected by Yongdao, it seems that they can support each other, but in fact, it also gives our army a chance to break through. Moreover, as long as the attack goes well, a feint attack can also become a real attack......" Cheng Yu continued.
Come on, Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai both said so, what is there to hesitate about.
At that moment, Liu Bei took the sword, printed it in his hand, handed it to Xi Zhicai, and said to him: "The soldiers are in danger, the two gentlemen should not attack the camp in person, and ask Mr. to command the whole army here, and ask Zhong Degong to be the auxiliary." Ling Lejin led the men and horses of the headquarters to besiege Lu Yi, ordered Guan Yunchang to command the Chinese army, Zhang Yide to command the men and horses on the right, and I went to the left to command the men and horses. ”
After a pause, Liu Bei accentuated his tone and said: "Below me, those who don't obey military orders can be beheaded!" ”
