Chapter 542: Eight Formations

After resting for a few days, LΓΌ Bu left 30,000 soldiers and horses in Changsha County, Guiyang County, and Jiangxia County to defend it, and led the remaining 120,000 troops to launch a fierce attack on Lingling County.

When attacking Lingling County, it was not decently defended, and it was even easier than when attacking Changsha County, Guiyang County, and Jiangxia County.

Of course, when attacking those three counties, the troops attacked in three directions, with only 50,000 men and horses on each road.

And now attacking Lingling County, it is a total of 120,000 troops, but in terms of numbers, it will be more than doubled.

It should be normal for the attack to be easier, but Lu Bu always felt that something was wrong.

It is estimated that Liu Bei was involved in most of the energy by Meng Huo's rebellion, and now that the news is transmitted slowly, Liu Bei estimates that he has just received the news and has not reacted at all, right?

In the original historical trajectory, Liu Bei's loss of Jingzhou also had this reason.

……

In the following time, LΓΌ Bu led a large army and began to launch a fierce attack on Wuling County.

As long as Wuling County is attacked again, there will only be one southern county left in the entire southern part of Jingzhou, and even if Liu Bei reacts, he will definitely not be able to defend it.

Therefore, as long as Wuling County is taken, the big thing will be done.

There are thirteen counties under the jurisdiction of Wuling County, Suoxian, Xiaoling, Linyuan, Yuanling, Rongcheng, Wuyang, Qianling, Chenyang, Youyang, Yiling, Sheshan, Lingyang, Chongxian, and the county is governed in Linyuan.

Wuling County has an important geographical location, which is the passage of the Central Plains into the southwest region, and can threaten Hanzhong, Chengdu and the White Emperor City.

At the same time, the terrain of Wuling County is also very complex.

In later generations, the famous Peach Blossom Spring Story took place in Wuling County.

In the Taiyuan Dynasty of the Jin Dynasty, the people of Wuling took fishing as their business. The Wuling people mentioned here are the people of Wuling County.

It is precisely because Wuling has so many special features that Lu Bu is very careful about attacking Wuling County.

I'd rather slow down than rush forward.

However, what made Lu Bu and Lu Bu's three military advisors extremely puzzled was that when they attacked Wuling County, it still seemed too smooth.

When attacking Changsha County, Guiyang County, and Jiangxia County, although the strength of these three counties was weak, the resistance they encountered was still very stubborn.

Liu Bei's forces are different from the other forces that Lu Bu has fought before.

Liu Bei has a unique vision, and his majesty has a very good set of rules, and he can make his subordinates follow him with all their hearts.

At least when attacking Changsha County and other three counties, soldiers will surrender after being captured, but there is never a general who surrenders.

However, when attacking Lingling County and Wuling County, the resistance was weakened, which made Lu Bu and the three military divisions more vigilant.

However, he didn't guess what conspiracy Liu Beifang had.

Finally, when he was about to attack Linyuan, the county of Wuling County, he finally encountered stubborn resistance.

On the contrary, this made Lu Bu and the three military advisors breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

It turned out that Liu Bei took the initiative to give up some places and was ready to stick to Linyuan.

found the reason, but was not so panicked.

Next, ten miles outside Linyuan City, Liu Bei's general Chen Rang, led 5,000 Baier troops, 10,000 infantry, and 5,000 cavalry to set up a battle, preparing to fight to the death with Lu Bu's army.

After getting the news, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Great, that's great!

The last thing Lu Bu wants to do now is to attack the city, and what he wants to see the most is a field battle!

Lu Bu's army has 120,000 soldiers and horses, strong combat effectiveness, and invincible in the field!

Of course, because of the terrain, the 120,000-strong army could not be spread out at all.

It is estimated that a maximum of 30,000 soldiers and horses will be able to be put into battle.

But will the 30,000 people's soldiers be afraid of the 20,000 soldiers and horses led by Chen Rang?

It's just a joke!

With the same strength, the soldiers were not afraid of any team, not to mention that their number now far exceeded the number of Chen Rang's troops.

Even if the White Ear Army led by Chen Zhi was one of the famous legions of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu was not afraid.

Because of the several legions under Lu Bu, whether it is Gao Shun's trapped camp, or the God of War Battalion, or Zhao Zilong's Shenji Battalion, which one is not an invincible legion?

Not to mention these famous legions, even if they are ordinary people's soldiers, if they are pulled out alone, they are not much inferior to the other legions of the Three Kingdoms.

Therefore, in the face of Chen Zhi's White Ear Army, Lu Bu really didn't pay much attention to it.

The six generals under Lu Bu asked for battle one after another.

And Lu Bu's three military advisors, Xun You, Guo Jia and Jia Xu, had a faint uneasiness in their hearts.

Guo Jia said to Lu Bu: "Lord, Chen Rang is strict in governing the army, and he is well versed in the art of war. ”

Jia Xu also said: "My lord, Feng Xiao's words are reasonable, we had better plan and then act, and it is not too late to act after finding out what happened." ”

Although Xun Yu did not speak, looking at his expression, it was obvious that he supported Guo Jia and Xun Yu's arguments.

Seeing the three of them so cautious, Lu Bu couldn't help laughing and said, "Three military advisors, you are too cautious!" Chen Dao's soldiers and horses are only 20,000! Even if he has any intrigues, can he still play flowers? ”

"In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and trickery looks so pale! Do you think that the combat effectiveness of the people's soldiers is not as good as that of the white-eared soldiers of Chen Zhi? ”

"This ......"

What Lu Bu said was so reasonable, Xun You, Guo Jia and Jia Xu were speechless.

Then, Lu Bu decided to let Zhao Zilong lead 5,000 Shenji Battalion cavalry, and Zhang Fei and Guan Yu led a total of 25,000 infantry to meet Chen Dao.

With the divine martial arts of the three of them, Lu Bu didn't believe that these 30,000 people would not be able to defeat the 20,000 led by Chen Zhi.

Faced with Lu Bu's decision, Xun You, Guo Jia and Pang Tong also felt that there was no problem.

The worst result, even if you can't capture Chen Zhi's 20,000 soldiers and horses, at least there is absolutely no problem in retreating.

In the end, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Pang Tong agreed to Lu Bu's deployment.

On the second day, Lu Bu led Zhao Zilong, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu with a total of 30,000 soldiers and horses, and went straight to Linyuan.

In addition to the strength outside Linyuan City, Chen Zhi led 20,000 soldiers and horses, set up a formation, and prepared to meet Lu Bu's army.

Lu Bu condescended, occupied the position of the Chinese army, picked up the binoculars, and began to observe Chen Dao's arrangement.

Then Lu Bu found that the formation that Chen Rang posed turned out to be an eight-array diagram.

The Eight Array Diagram was created by Zhuge Liang and is a kind of battle array.

Of course, it's not like the boast of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", putting a bunch of stones is an eight-array diagram, which can trap Lu Xun of Eastern Wu and can be worth 100,000 elite soldiers.

If this is the case, Zhuge Banxian will not have to do anything else, it will be a matter of mining stones and placing eight arrays, and it is not a proper thing to unify the three kingdoms.

The real Eight Arrays are named after the sky, the earth, the wind, the clouds, the dragon, the tiger, the bird, and the snake, and the Chinese army is a total of nine large arrays.

The Chinese army was composed of sixteen small formations, and the surrounding eight formations were composed of six small formations each, attacking sixty-four small formations.

Among the eight formations, the wind and clouds of heaven and earth are the four positives, and the dragons, tigers, birds and snakes (green dragons, white tigers, vermilion birds, and Xuanwu) are the four odds.

In addition, there are twenty-four formations in the rear, waiting for the opportunity to move.
