Cavalry, in the field, has a natural advantage, speed! Speed allows cavalry to move quickly between battlefields, which in turn allows warfare to produce a variety of tactics to match. At the same time, when a large number of cavalry charges en masse, the power is very terrifying. This also led many to believe that the cavalry was a well-deserved king of field battles.

But strictly speaking, most of the time, cavalry needs the terrain and other troops to cooperate to be able to exert its maximum power. If there is only cavalry, then it is actually difficult to take advantage of the well-equipped infantry in the face of the formation.

Just like in the past, when Li Ling led 5,000 infantry to be surrounded by the 30,000 cavalry of the Huns, he was still able to rely on the battle formation and terrain to retreat in a row, and even the Xiongnu led the right and left kings and the army of 80,000 to besiege together, Li Ling was still able to fight until he shot all the arrows, and then he was defeated and captured.

Of course, if the infantry is not very well positioned and equipped, then the cavalry still has a chance to confront it head-on. It's like this was the case when Li Yi faced the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army led by Bu Ji in the past. The tattered equipment of the Yellow Turban Army, the chaotic formation, coupled with the martial arts of Li Yi and his subordinates such as Lu Bu and others, scared Bu Ji to death in the battle.

It can be said that if the cavalry wants to defeat the infantry, then the most important thing is to move, not only to make themselves move, but also to make the infantry move. Because no matter how tight the formation is, as long as it moves, there will definitely be flaws. In the same way, if the infantry wants not to be defeated by the cavalry, then the only way is to stop, use the tightest formation, and wait for the enemy attack.

And now, on the official road to Linwo, Zhang Meng did just that, he asked the troops to arrange their positions and wait for the enemy's attack. It's just that Bi Su obviously didn't have any intention of taking the initiative to attack, he just led the troops to stay at a position of about five hundred steps in front of Zhao's army, quietly watching the enemy.

I don't know how long it took, but Bisu suddenly laughed loudly, "Zhang Guoxiang, aren't you planning to spend it like this?" Over there in Wushuang City, I urgently need the support of the Prime Minister~"

Hearing this, Zhang Meng's already gloomy face became even more ugly, because Bi Su was right, he needed to rush to Wushuang City as soon as possible to support. Although he believed that Zang Hong and Wushuang City's defenses were enough to defend for ten days and half a month, if they continued to spend so much time and speed......

"Pass my orders! Maintain the formation and continue to march towards Linwo! Also, protect your baggage carts and don't let the enemy find a chance to sabotage! After Zhang Meng pondered for a moment, he finally made up his mind. This trip to Linwo is only less than a hundred miles away, even if he marches while resisting the harassment of the enemy, Zhang Meng believes that it will not take too long.

Although, this kind of behavior of marching while resisting the enemy's attack is undoubtedly very dangerous and stupid. But at this time, Zhang Meng had no choice. Is it difficult to return to Xianyang? No way! Because the distance of Xianyang is farther than the distance between Linwo and where they are at this time.

Seeing Zhao Jun's actions, Bisu sneered, and then led the army to the flank of Zhao Jun. Obviously, he would not let Zhao Jun arrive in Linwo so easily.

One day, a full day, Zhao Jun only traveled less than twenty miles. In the face of the interception of the Xianbei cavalry, Zhang Meng really didn't have much to do. Especially at night, the harassment of Xianbei people made Zhang Meng even more annoyed. And I don't know why, at night, the harassment of the Xianbei people increased, and even several times, if it wasn't for Zhang Meng's quick response, the Xianbei people would have directly entered the battle. Perhaps, is it because most of these nomadic tribes on the steppe worship the relationship between eagles and wolves?

And on the second day, Zhao Jun, who was already not resting well, faced the constant harassment of Xianbei people, and his pace became slower. Every step, as if filled with lead, took it slowly, and fell heavily to the ground.

At this time, Zhang Meng was fully able to understand how desperate and helpless Li Ling, Li Yi's ancestor, was when he faced the Huns. You must know that Zhang Meng's troops were only 20,000 fewer than those of the Xianbei people, and Li Ling at that time was facing an enemy army several times larger than his own. Moreover, now where Zhang Meng is located, is still the familiar Wushuang Kingdom, what about Li Ling? But it was on the steppe, the home of the Huns.

By the third day, the situation had become more and more dangerous. Not just the exhausted body, but also the increasing number of wounded soldiers and the dwindling number of arrows.

"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that before we reach Linwo, our army will have completely collapsed." Zhang Meng looked around at the soldiers around him, and saw that their faces were all full of tiredness. Even Zhang Meng doubted that if he entered Linwo at this time, these soldiers would fall asleep on the ground in an instant.

"What do you mean by ......," the adjutant general on the side asked in a low voice when he heard this.

"Give up the baggage! Full speed to Linwo! Zhang Meng said in a resolute tone.

"What?!" When the adjutant general heard this, he immediately showed a look of disbelief, "No, Prime Minister of the State!" Now it is only twenty or thirty miles away from Linwo, and even at this speed, it will only take about a day to reach Linwo. If these burdens are abandoned, then the patience of these days and the casualties of the soldiers will not be ......" By the end, the adjutant general's eyes had turned red, and they were full of humiliation and unwillingness.

In fact, if it had been replaced by other troops, I am afraid that under such harassment by the Xianbei people, they would have already fled. But the soldiers of the Zhao army are still holding on, for what? Maybe it's because of what the lieutenant said?

Unwilling! Humiliation!

The Xianbei people, who have only been bullied by them all along, have now run to their heads to spread wildness, and they have almost no power to fight back, how can this make them willing? I'm afraid that there is a fire in their hearts, and after arriving in Wushuang City, they will desperately vent to the enemy.

"One day?" Zhang Meng glanced at the adjutant general, and then pointed to the soldiers around him, "Look at the appearance of these soldiers, can they last another day?" And yesterday's Xianbei people's offensive increased significantly, I am afraid that today, the enemy army will also begin to fight hard, in this state, can it really reach Linwo under the condition of keeping the baggage? Can we, the soldiers be able to hold on?! ”

"Hold on!" At this moment, a firm voice came from the side, but it was a soldier passing by, who couldn't help but shout after hearing the conversation between Zhang Meng and the lieutenant general.

"Yes, we can hold on! Prime Minister, trust us! Hearing this, although the other soldiers didn't know what was going on, they still shouted along with them.
