When Zhao Xi took the repaired Zhao army to the city of Shaoliang, Zi Qi had already instructed the Yan army to prepare for battle and prepare for a fight.

Coincidentally, Ziqi and Zhao Xi both broke away from their own teams and advanced towards the gap between the two armies. Zhao Xi still habitually rode a horse, and Ziqi did not choose to leather, and he also chose to ride on a horse in this battle. The two of them traveled to the point of view where they could see each other's faces clearly. Involuntarily began to look at each other. But what was even more nervous was the archers who were ambushed between the chariots and soldiers, and the deputies of the two were nervously watching every move of the two people, hoping to strike first at the moment of change.

But both men habitually pulled the reins and looked at each other. Zhao Xi looked at Ziqi, this is a middle-aged man, it is the golden time of a general, although he has a beard, he can see that he takes care of it from time to time, and he does not look disordered. The leather armor on his body was wrapped in a single coat inside, and there was obviously only one layer. Unlike himself, although he is wrapped in a deep coat, he obviously has more range of leather armor than the other party. This also reflects from one side that the cavalry of Yan State is still more inclined to the Saiwaihu tribe, rather than the Zhao State, which selectively learns.

Zi Qi also looked at this old Dezhao senior, although he was an opponent, but what still made him awe-inspiring was that even at this age, he also created a record of marching in the territory of Yan for six consecutive days, causing nearly 10,000 casualties in the Yan army. If this is from the hands of a general who is similar to himself, Ziqi will also sigh, and in the face of Zhao Xi, he is truly respectful.

"When General Yan Guo was in his son, it was an honor to be able to meet the old-timers here. Those who march in the army cannot carry wine with them, otherwise, they will definitely have to give a bowl to the general. "He is a junior, so naturally he has to speak first.

"To be able to meet General Ziqi here, Zhao Xi is also a good fortune. The general is not only courageous, but also scheming, which really makes the old man admire. ”

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed." Ziqi hugged his fists and responded, although he did not try to hide Sima Cheng's credit, but on this occasion, if he said Sima Cheng, it would be equivalent to exposing his hole cards, and the gains outweighed the losses.

"Don't be ashamed. The general is so scheming that he can count that the old man will turn back the same way, and with this kind of strategy, he can be regarded as a famous general at that time, but in the eyes of the old man, there is a person who is not only younger than the general, but also definitely surpasses the general in terms of attainments in the use of soldiers. If this is the person who comes this time, the general may not be able to ambush us easily. Zhao Xi stroked his beard and smiled indifferently.

"Oh, I don't know who this is?" Although the child was smiling, there was a burst of pride in his heart, and a debuff called conceit began to work on him.

What a character Zhao Xi is, many years of horse fighting career, at this moment turned into a shrewd eye, penetrating the hypocritical smile of the child, from the panic of his hands to mobilize the horse, to the horse's unstoppable step adjustment, he can see that his psychological offensive has worked.

So he was not in a hurry, and continued: "Although this person is old and weak, but in the arrangement of troops, even the old man is difficult to match, and the most important thing is that his long-term vision, unpredictable strategy, and magic of using soldiers are all the best choices. To tell the truth, his understanding of cavalry has even far surpassed that of Zhuzi, and he can be a unique faction. ”

The more I listened, the more doubts I had in my heart. In particular, the cavalry tactics mentioned by Zhao Xi, he has been deeply taught under the city of Turbidity, and I have to say that the rigor of its formation, the peculiarity of cavalry training and tactics, and especially the tactical advantages of an independent army, have shocked the sub-period. He has always felt that the current cavalry of Zhao State has been reborn, and this time from Zhao Xi's mouth, he knows that such a cavalry genius does exist in Zhao State, how can he not want to know it?

"It seems that this person is quite valued by the old general, I don't know if it's the cavalry general in Turbid Deer City? Dare to ask whose surname is who? ”

This time, Ziqi's eyes were no longer as calm as they were just now, and instead of some doubts, Zhao Xi squinted his eyes and decided to add another fire.

"Haha, the people in the turbid deer city, compared with the people I said, such as the starlight wants to compete with the bright moon, if the civet cat is compared to the tiger, although it is somewhat similar, but its rules and regulations are far inferior. What's more, although the people in Turbid Deer City are a little immature compared to the general, they are a little older than the one I mentioned. ”

Zhao Xi's words were like a thunderclap on the ground, which deeply shocked the sub-period. He was defeated by the cavalry of Zhao State under Turbid Deer City, thinking that the cavalry general in Turbid Deer City was the only one in his life, but he didn't expect Zhao Xiyi to say that the one in Turbid Deer City was far from the best, and there were even more powerful generals than him, how could this not make Zi Qi's mood gradually calm down under Turbid Deer City, and make waves again?

In the military history of the world, the East and the West have given birth to two military saints because of their different realities. One is the Oriental Soldier Saint Sun Wu, whose representative work is; Almost 2,000 years later than Sun Wu, the West gave birth to its own military saint, Clausewitz, and his is almost the only comparable military work in the world's military history. Clausewitz's greatest contribution was to list the "spiritual factor" as one of the key factors affecting the war, and he even said: "In destroying the enemy's army, it is not only necessary to destroy the enemy's material strength, but more importantly, to destroy the enemy's spiritual strength." "The so-called war is a kind of contest between the spiritual and material forces of the two sides through material forces."

Zhao Xi is to let the sub-period, who is always too cautious, fluctuate in mental factors, although it is said that bickering cannot determine the outcome of the war, but every change in small factors may cause the balance of victory and defeat in the war to tilt.

Now, Zhao Xi has flipped the scales, and the sub-period has obviously lost a game first.

"Hehe, if I'm lucky, I really hope to meet this general."

"Of course, though, I don't think the general would like to see him on the battlefield." Zhao Xi pretended to be mysterious and said.

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because when you see him on the battlefield, it means that the Yan and Zhao families must be engaged in a decisive battle related to the fortunes of the country. Because only his identity can complete such a battle on behalf of Zhao State. ”

If you say this, the child doesn't know who he is talking about, then in this life, it can be regarded as living to a dog. The surprise in my heart could not be concealed. But soon, he calmed down, because he gradually realized that this might be Zhao Xi's plan to attack his heart, so he calmed down a little and said slowly: "Is it too rude for the general to work in boats and cars, come to my Yan Realm, and attack my city?" ”

"The general of the sub-period has done this hard work, but it has also taught the old man. Obviously, it was the Yan Kingdom and the Zhongshan Kingdom that attacked my Turbid Deer City first, and only then did the old man lead the troops to attack the Yan Realm. Does the general think that with empty words and white teeth, he can reverse right and wrong? ”

"Old general, you and I are both leading soldiers, and there must be something to say. Our army attacked Turbid Deer City here, and the old general over there led the army back to our rear to attack. And, IMHO, is Turbid Deer City really a dangerous city? I'm afraid not really. Why is my army several times larger than Zhao's army, but I can't conquer this city, the reason, presumably General Zhao will not say it to me. ”

"Hahaha, the general of the sub-period is not very old, but this bickering ability is a must. When our army was on its northern tour, the Yan army attacked us secretly, and in the end, we had to rely on our tight defense, which was really a big joke in the world. Zhao Xi laughed and said: "My lord once said, I don't know if the general has heard of it?" ”

"I'd like to hear it." Ziqi said.

"In the past, the funeral of the five parliaments was blocked by the Southern Great Wall, and the king ordered Pang Nuan, the son of Pang Cong, to bring a message to the envoys of various countries. Zhao Xi paused, and said with a cold face: "Friends come with good wine, and the wolf with spears when they come." ”

The words are not speculative, and there are many sentences. Knowing that the two could no longer talk, they each returned to their own formation, ready to judge the victory or defeat under the bayonet.

The drums of "Dong Dong Dong" gradually sounded, and on the endless plain, a crucial battle was about to start, on one side was the Yan State that had not been peeped into the Central Plains for a long time, but its strength could not be underestimated, and on the other hand, it was the Zhao State whose strength was still a mystery after the great breakthrough. This battle is destined to go down in history.

Yan Guo's offensive routine is still very fixed. The chariot soldiers took the lead, trying to break through the Zhao army's defense line by relying on the impact force. The cavalry on both wings, ready to play at any time, to make a commotion with the enemy's reinforcements and ensure the balance of the war on the main battlefield. And the foot soldiers are behind them.

I saw that the mighty chariot troops began to whistle and pat their horses, as the main force of the war, the Zhao State chariot soldiers, who had been blessed by reinforcements, looked very weak. It is possible to be crushed by Zhao Guo's chariot soldiers at any time.

Seeing the approach of the Yan army's chariot troops, Zhao Xi, who had planned many times, finally issued the first order of the Zhao army: the chariot soldiers were to defend in a circular formation, and all the archers surrounded them. The cavalry set off from both flanks and attacked the chariots on both sides of the opposing side.

Therefore, the chariots of Zhao State were quickly mobilized, and all the chariots were arranged in a circular formation, with the horses facing outward, ready to meet the enemy at any time, and outside was a circle of apostles, that is, the reserve troops of the chariots. They wrapped the chariot soldiers in it, carried their own large shields, arranged them in a circle, and waited for the other chariot soldiers to roar by, and their hearts had already silently begun to pray that they would be able to survive and come back. And in the middle of the circular array, there are all the archers, they will have bows and arrows in their hands, as long as the opponent dares to rush into the range, they will not hesitate to shoot bows and arrows.

The cavalry of the Zhao army, on the other hand, pulled the bowstring, looked at the opposing chariot soldiers who gradually entered, as well as the shields they had erected early, and without hesitation, aimed all the arrows at the horses of the opponent's chariot. Listening to the sound of "Zheng", the cavalry arrows on both wings rained out, and in an instant, they were vented in the impact lineup of the opponent's chariots, and for a while, some horses that were not tightly wrapped were hit by arrows and began to be restless. And their confusion just brought a little advantage to the cavalry of the Zhao army.
