Chapter 162: The Battle of Yiling Pavilion (9)
The Eastern Wu Tiger Guard is well-equipped, well-treated, and the perennial guard is on the side of Wu Hou Sun Quan, and his status in the army is also superior, and most of its members are selected from the Eastern Wu clan and the sons of the nobles.
The main general of this term is the son of the late fierce general, Jianchang Lieutenant Tai Shici, Yue Cavalry Captain Tai Shixiang; The deputy general is the eldest son of the late Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu, and the cavalry lieutenant Zhou Xun.
After receiving the order, the two of them were immediately full of ambition and led the three thousand Tiger Guard cavalry to the battlefield.
Gan Ning also rushed back to his own formation and urgently mobilized his own cavalry.
There are very few cavalry in the Eastern Wu army, one is because horses are difficult to find, and the other is because the cavalry costs a lot.
Moreover, the water system in the south of the Yangtze River is vertical and horizontal, and it is not a place for cavalry, so except for Wu Houzhongjun and a few generals, few people can form a formed cavalry team.
Gan Ning is one of the few generals who is willing to support cavalry.
He himself is a native of Linjiang, Ba County, Yizhou, and has been a ranger since he was a child.
Because when I was young, I did a business on the river with no capital, and when I waited for the golden basin to wash my hands, it was not too much to say that it was a huge family asset.
He also squandered his wealth with righteousness, and won the support of the soldiers, so that in a few years, he was formed into a cavalry team of more than 300 people.
A few years ago, Wu Wei fought a series of battles in the Hefei-Weixukou area.
After Zhang Liaowei shook Yaojin, Gan Ning immediately robbed the camp with 100 horsemen and returned the color, which shocked Cao Jun and raised fire like stars.
This feat made Sun Quan exclaim on the spot, "Meng De has Zhang Wenyuan, and there is Gan Xingba".
At that time, Gan Ning robbed Cao Ying, relying on this cavalry!
These cavalrymen were not only his own soldiers, but also his brothers who had lived and died together in his youth, and he was confident that he would be invincible in commanding a cavalry detachment.
At this moment, Gan Ning was standing in front of his own formation, just waiting for the tiger guards to entangle the Shu cavalry.
At that time, he was able to bypass all the obstacles on the field, take him by surprise, and go straight to the flank of the Shu army to revitalize the whole situation.
******
After Sun Quan gave the order, the formation of the Wu army changed sharply, and 5,000 infantry and more than 3,000 cavalry drove out in turn.
Guan Yu saw it clearly, opened his eyes suddenly, and sneered: "Sun Quan Xiao'er finally can't bear it?" Order, Jiang Weibu and Zhang Bao are two departments to meet the opponent's cavalry formation! β
He noticed that the Ganning Ministry had not yet started, so he knew what Gan Ning thought, so he turned to Zhang Fei and said, "Yide, it's your turn soon!"
Not long after, Zhou Xun and Tai Shixiang each led a battalion of armed guard cavalry, and they had already rushed to the center of the battlefield.
Zhou Xun saw that it was the Yulinwei led by Jiang Wei, and Tai Shixiang saw that it was the tiger horse led by Zhang Bao, the two glanced at each other, and saw that each other had expectations in their eyes, and then withdrew their gaze and led their respective riding formations to gallop at the same time.
Guan Xing and Jiang Wei rode together in the Yulin Forest.
Although he had the merit of killing Jiang Yi and Xian Yu Dan, it was still not enough for this arrogant young general to come out of the self-blame of getting rid of Gan Ning.
A burst of Wu cavalry was rushing towards him, the knights on horseback, full of battle uniforms, like a wind, smooth and neat armor shining in the sun; The flaming red helmet fluttered in the north windβ
It's a rare elite array!
Seeing this situation, Guan Xing's chest suddenly swelled with an irrepressible battle intent, and he was about to step forward, but Jiang Wei on the side grabbed him and asked in a deep voice:
"Second brother, can you know Tian Ji horse racing?"
Guan Xing was stunned, the decisive battle was imminent, and the third brother asked what was this for?
But he knew that Jiang Wei had always been steady, and there must be something in his words, so he nodded and replied, "I know." β
Jiang Wei looked ahead and said quickly: "Now the two of us have 1,000 cavalry against the enemy's 1,000 cavalry, and my brother is also 1,000 against 1,005. β
He paused, and pointed in the direction of the tiger cavalry led by Zhang Bao, Guan Xing looked along, but saw that Tai Shixiang led 1,500 cavalry had already accelerated the charge, and saw that it would be more than ten breaths to collide with the tiger cavalry led by Zhang Bao.
"After a while, when the cavalry rushed to each other, the younger brother led a song of Yulin to ride here to fight, and the second brother led another song of Yulin to ride to the right, helping the elder brother to attack the Wu army cavalry formation against him, under the two phases of the attack, the elder brother can instantly divide the victory and defeat, and then come to the aid of the younger brother at the right time!"
Guan Xing heard this, and immediately understood.
Jiang Wei meant to form a superior combat force in the local area, swallow one part first, and then free up his hands to swallow the remaining one.
He was already very convinced of Jiang Wei, and he was even more confident in his martial arts, and he didn't worry about his safety at all, so he nodded immediately:
"I understand, I'll do it in a moment!"
At this time, Zhou Xun locked on Jiang Weiyulin's ride and rushed straight in.
He is the eldest son of the late Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu, handsome and chic, quite the style of his father, deeply loved by Sun Quan, and married Sun Luban, the eldest daughter of Marquis Wu.
He enjoys his father's legacy and glory, and although he has never been on the battlefield, he also has a heart to make contributions.
He shouted orders and asked the Tiger Guard to try to control his mount and move forward in small steps, trying to keep his formation as neat as possible.
This is a point he learned from the book of war and took it as a matter of course-
The cavalry formation must be in a strict formation, so that it can impact in a dense formation, and then defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
Jiang Wei saw it from a distance, raised the spear in the air, the tip of the spear kept spinning, and at the same time shouted: "Yu Linlang, Lie Yan cavalry formation, prepare to meet the enemy!" β
Yu Linlang only tried his hand at the beginning, and watched coldly for a morning, he was already high in battle, hungry and thirsty, and when he heard the words, he responded with a bang and started slowly.
When the two armies were only two hundred paces apart, the Wu army riders put their spears under their armpits and slowly accelerated.
The best distance to charge is a hundred steps, which is usually practiced, but Zhou Xun still feels that his chest is fluttering and jumping, and he doesn't know if it's because of nervousness or excitement.
He took a deep breath, leaned forward slightly, raised his gun and shouted: "Hold the formation, follow me to meet the enemy!" β
One hundred and eighty steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps!
Zhou Xun shouted:
"At this time, all the soldiers are rushing!"
With his order, Wu Jun's tiger guard cavalry suddenly accelerated, the horse's hooves rumbled on the ground, and the cavalry formation was meticulous, looking from afar, it was really mighty and extraordinary, and it could not be stopped.
At the same time, the Yulin Rider did not show weakness and went up accordingly.
The two armies were getting closer and closer, and Zhou Xun could already faintly see the faces of the enemy troops.
Seeing that the cavalry formation on the opposite side was scattered, a trace of joy swelled up in his heart, and he secretly thought that with such a loose formation, it would be difficult to block his full blow, so he silently recited in his heart:
"Father, the child will never insult your wisdom, please be optimistic, this is the battle for the child to become famous!"
Ninety steps, eighty steps, seventy steps......
Wu Jun's tiger guard cavalry had already pushed the horse's speed to the limit, and it was about to hit it in ten more breaths.
Suddenly-
The Han cavalry formation suddenly split into two, and the Han cavalry brushed the front line of the Wu cavalry, and suddenly scattered to the left and right.
If the Wu Army's Tiger Guard Cavalry is compared to a giant sword, and the Han Army's cavalry formation is compared to a wave, then the situation in front of you is like a giant sword cutting through the waves and breaking the wave into two.
However, in fact, the two armies have never had the slightest contact!
Zhou Xun couldn't control the speed of the horse, and at the same time became suspicious: "What kind of tactic is this?" β
He couldn't help but look sideways, and saw a green-robed young general with a big knife leading half of the cavalry galloping towards the right.
On the right hand side of the battlefield, Tai Shixiang had already fought with another Shu cavalry.
Zhou Xun was taken aback: "Could it be that this guy wants to attack Tai Shixiang?" β
Just as he watched in horror, Guan Xing shouted to fight, leading half of the Yulin Rider to crash into the right side of Shi Xiang's department.
At this time, Tai Shixiang was concentrating on fighting with Zhang Bao's department, and when he was defenseless, he was suddenly knocked into a person on his back, and the war horse couldn't help neighing, and the formation was in chaos.
Zhang Bao laughed and took advantage of the situation to follow up the attack.
This one is ruined.
Zhou Xun's chest was almost spurting blood, and the Tiger Guard rode mostly as the sons of the clan and nobles, and many of them were his friends.
When he finally slowed down the horse, he was furious and immediately ordered the horse's head to be turned, and when he was adjusting, Yu Guang saw that the Shu horse that had just turned left had already completed its U-turn and was speeding up.
The situation in front of him suddenly made him stunned.
"What kind of formation tactic is this? It wasn't written in the war book......"
He couldn't think about it anymore, because as far as his eyes could see, a young general with a white horse Xuanjia was holding a spear and coming with momentum.
(Author's note: If Zhou Xun is against Mi Wei, then the two may be half a catty and eight taels, which belongs to rookies pecking each other; But unfortunately, he was up to Jiang Wei, who was born in the northwest and cavalry S. Welcome to leave a message to discuss. οΌ
