Chapter 319: Enough of this white mourner
There was a noisy sound between the military formations, and Gu Nan was riding on his horse and his hat was slightly blown by the wind, and he turned his eyes sideways to look at the military formation.
The Xuanxiang Array seems complicated, but in fact it is just a maze arranged in a queue, and unlike the formation used for marching, it does not need to change and advance and retreat, it only needs to be arranged and marched.
Therefore, the training of this formation is also extremely fast, and it is only necessary to assign where each team of military formations stands, and it can play the role of the Xuanxiang Formation without changing the formation at will.
If we change the military formation for battle or add some changes and combinations of military formations, I am afraid that this army will not be able to come up with it without a few months of training.
What's more, this army is a unit transferred from various units, although it is said that the army at this time only recognizes the soldiers and does not recognize the generals, and whoever fights under them is a war, but this cannot completely ignore the strangeness and estrangement between them, and the cooperation is definitely not as good as the soldiers who are already in a formation.
Although such soldiers use banners to dispatch on the battlefield, they do not worry about the problem of dialect incomprehension, but the teams certainly do not get along so harmoniously and tacitly, and in good cases, they also fight their own battles.
This is also the reason why Gu Nan chose to feint defeat instead of fighting head-on. If she was given an army of more than 10,000 regular training, she was confident that she would defeat Hua Xiong's 30,000 Xiliang head-on.
But such a patchwork army, let alone breaking the 30,000 Xiliang army head-on, is still a question of how much it can safely withdraw when it is feinted.
The military formation battle is different from private martial arts, she can defeat Hua Xiong, but the ultimate goal is 30,000 Xiliang troops, not Hua Xiong alone.
If Cao Cao only had 5,000 troops in his hands now, she would not have made such a decision.
However, it is always better to have soldiers than no soldiers, and the role of this army is to make Cao Cao a force of attrition in Dong Zhuo's battle.
Because it is a borrowed soldier in the name of seeking Dong, as long as the fight against Dong is not over, it is not good for the princes of this army to go back, Cao Cao can fight as much as he wants, and he will not feel distressed if he is not disabled if his own soldiers are disabled.
As for waiting until the end of the battle against Dong, Cao Cao finished the battle and received merits, so I don't know how many soldiers he can return.
After all, casualties in the battle array are not something that anyone can control, right?
All the princes should have taken this into account, so the borrowed soldiers are all new recruits in the army, and their combat power is limited, and there will not even be the eyeliner planted by the princes, because this army will be scrapped after this battle, and it is impossible to be reused by Cao Cao.
Although there may be some cruelty to these loaned soldiers, the reality is that most of the more than 10,000 people who have been loaned out will become victims of this contest for political merit.
It was doomed from the moment they joined this army, and most of them would die on that battlefield and never return.
Gu Nan withdrew his gaze and no longer looked at the faces stained with sand.
She was very helpless, but there was no other way, fighting was to kill people, the war was not benevolent, and human life was just a number.
What she can do is to end the chaos in the Eastern Han Dynasty as soon as possible, so that the chaos in the future will occur less.
She doesn't know if this is a righteous person, but in her opinion, she has always been a selfish person, using other people's lives to achieve her own goals, no matter what the name of righteousness is, she is a selfish person.
What's more, she just didn't want to really die when the old man asked her how the prosperous times were.
She also has to use the lies of her previous life to deceive, and she is afraid that she will not be able to say anything.
She had no close relatives, and she didn't want to see the old man's disappointed appearance.
Moreover, she had long had enough of her gray clothes, and she didn't want to mourn for anyone anymore.
Whether it was the person who died at her hands or the person who died beside her, she should pay off the debt of her sins by herself.
Gu Nan looked up at the blue sky covered by yellow sand, she begged it when Qin Shi was.
Since it is useless to ask you, I will come myself.
For hundreds of years, she had been preparing for it for a long time.
The sound of the military formation was deep and mighty, and under that long sky, smoke and dust were raised.
······
Ten days after breaking Sun Jian, Hua Xiong's army was guarded under the Tiger Prison Pass and did not move, although Hua Xiong was proud, but he only had 30,000 people, and it was impossible to lead the army to attack the princes' own formation of more than 100,000.
He was ready to wait for work at ease, and take advantage of the natural danger of the Tiger Prison Pass to defend the princes, so that the dominance of the battle would be transferred to his hands.
The princes come from all over the place, and on the surface they are allied, but there is a lot of friction in the dark, and it is impossible for the princes to raise troops together to attack until the real urgency. As long as the princes do not come together, he has the power to stand.
He knew this very well, so he didn't panic, even if he came to several princes, he could defend it with the danger of the tiger prison.
"Plug in." A short knife stabbed into a piece of stew.
Hua Xiong held the short knife and tugged at it, cut off a piece of meat, stabbed it on the tip of the knife, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The grease stains of the meat stuck to his mouth, making his mouth look greasy, and his mouth was chewing heavily.
Reached out and took a jug from the table and took a sip.
He looked like a rough man, but he rarely drank on the march, and he could never get himself drunk. He knows the truth of drinking and making mistakes, let alone a place like the battle formation, which is ever-changing. For this kind of thing, it is likely that you will lose your life in vain.
There was a faint sound of horses' hooves outside.
"Phew!" A shouting voice, the voice of Lerma came from outside.
A figure walked outside his tent and knelt down in front of the door: "General, military report!" ”
The Tiger Prison is surrounded by horsemen and standard-bearers arranged by him, and if there is any trace of the princes' army, they will report to him at any time.
Seeing this horseman, Hua Xiong had already guessed what was going on.
Counting the time, nearly ten days have passed, but it is about the same, and the princes can't wait.
"Come in and say." Swallowing the meat in his mouth, Hua Xiong leaned back in his seat and said.
"Yes!"
Xiao Qi answered, strode in from the outside, and could see that something big had been discovered.
Walking in front of Hua Xiong, Xiao Cai bowed: "General, a large army was found in the valley in the east, and it was very powerful, there were about tens of thousands of people, and it was the princes who attacked the tiger prison all the way." ”
"Oh?" Hua Xiong was stunned for a moment, his eyes were distracted, as if he was thinking about something.
Suddenly sneered: "The valley that walked? ”
"Yes." Xiao Qi looked at Hua Xiong and laughed inexplicably, and replied.
"Hehehe." Hua Xiong smiled and waved his hand, not caring at all.
"The princes are not unjustly defeated, they are all such wine bags and rice bags, how can they not be defeated?"
"The terrain outside the valley is not steep, knowing that we are the Xiliang Army still dare to walk from the valley, this world is really interesting, such a person can lead the army to fight."
The terrain of the mountains is not suitable for cavalry battles, and the other side should have taken this into account, but that is for heavy heavy cavalry, and for light cavalry troops who are good at field warfare, there is not much difference between a not steep mountain and a flat land.
You can even use the mountain to ambush outside the valley, fire a few volleys, and then use the cavalry to swoop down from the mountain, or you can break through the opponent's military formation in a few times, so that the opponent will be confused.
The march between the armies does not need to kill the other party in chaos, and if it cannot be controlled, it is no different from defeat.
"Where have they gone, and how fast have they traveled?" Hua Xiong asked.
"General Hui, I just entered the valley, and from the outside, it looks like most of the infantry chariots, and the speed of the march is very slow." Xiao Qi thought about it for a moment and replied to Hua Xiong.
Hua Xiong's smiling face gradually faded from his face, leaving a hideous face.
"Pass the order, leave an army in this formation, and if anyone attacks the camp, immediately ask for help from the Guanzhong army. The rest, divided into two armies, ambushed at the mouth of the valley, waiting for my orders! ”
"Yes!"
