The 10,000 troops led by Adjutant General Huo Si'an were mainly infantry soldiers, supplemented by a lieutenant of cavalry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In this world, the armies of the sixteen countries are the same.
Five people are in a team, and there is a captain in the army. Two corps are one tithe, and one chief is set up, and two troop commanders are under jurisdiction.
Five tithes are a group, and there is a gang leader. Four to five groups are a team, with one team leader and two team deputies. Jurisdiction over four to five gang leaders.
The eighth team is one lieutenant, with one lieutenant and three to five lieutenants, and eight captains in charge. The military rank of school captain is below the seventh rank.
Above the seventh rank is called the general, and between the seventh rank and the fourth rank of the general. The establishment is somewhat scattered, and some generals can command 40,000 or 50,000 troops, that is, 20 to 25 lieutenants. And some generals can only command thousands of troops, that is, three or five lieutenants.
Those who command more than 50,000 troops are all generals of a country. These generals are all titled generals above the third rank.
Titled general, not to say that if you have a title, you can be called a titled general. Refers to a general who guards one side and leads an army alone.
Take the Dazhen Empire as an example, among the three rank martial arts, there are eight people in Si'an and four towns. Si'an: General Andong, General Anxi, General Annan, General Anbei. Four towns: General Zhendong, General Zhenxi, General Zhennan, General Zhenbei. These are titled generals.
There are four second-rank military positions, namely the general of Zhenguo, the general of the auxiliary country, the general of Anguo, and the general of Dingguo.
As for Yipin, it is one of the three princes, the captain who is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses.
……
When Wu Bai learned of the situation of the 10,000 Zhao army, he began to analyze what methods to use to dispel their idea of slaughtering the city.
In the way of harassment, no! The Zhao army has a captain of cavalry, and if you are not careful, you will be bitten.
At present, it is necessary to knock out their cavalry, but the other side has 2,000 horsemen and 8,000 foot soldiers. The Flame Rider is full and there are only a thousand when it is full.
Don't look at the previous few battles, Canglong City was outnumbered and won a big victory.
It was all a surprise attack, and it was only by taking the opponent by surprise that it would take them off guard.
There was not a single frontal battle. Therefore, it cannot be measured by the results of the past.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Bai had no clue, so he asked Zhang Zhao, the commander of the Fire Cavalry, after all, this is the main master of the cavalry.
"Commander Zhang, how do you think you should fight this battle?"
Zhang Zhao was also thinking about how to stop Zhao Jun. Hearing Wu Bai's question, he replied:
"Back to the lord, the Zhao army is overwhelming, and it must be divided and attacked. The last general thinks that our fire cavalry should attack along the way and consume the Zhao army's troops with thunder and fire bombs! ”
The thunder fire bomb is a killing weapon made by Wu Bai proposed the method of making gunpowder from the earth and asked the public transmission class of the Tiangong Academy and others to make it.
Before the Flame Rider set out on the expedition, Canglong City had five for each soldier.
Wu Bai had some doubts about Zhang Zhao's proposal. I also thought of attacking and harassing, but I felt a little risky, so I asked: "Commander Zhang, the Zhao army has a captain of cavalry. Can you use the method of harassment to ensure that you will not be bitten? ”
At this time, Zhang Zhao said confidently: "Don't worry, lord! The Flame Rider followed Commander Zhang and fought against the top cavalry of the Zhao State. Zhao Guo's cavalry wanted to bite the fire horse, but he didn't have that tooth! ”
Wu Bai was very relieved about Zhang Han, so he did not have a detailed understanding of the situation in which the expedition led him away from the sight of the big forces and fought with the Zhao State Yougu Cavalry.
Later, Zhang Han reported the results of the battle, killed thousands of enemies, and added another 3,000 war horses to Canglong City, when Zhang Han returned, not only the slashing army was all equipped with war horses, but also the slashing army and the fire cavalry were both one person and two horses.
According to Fan Wen, the commander of the Slashing Army, if it weren't for the fear that Canglong City would not be able to support more war horses. More than twice as many horses were harvested.
Seeing that Zhang Zhao was so confident, Wu Bai said: "Okay! Presumably, Commander Zhang has a way to break the enemy, so let's discuss the specific battle plan. ”
Zhang Zhao said: "In this battle, the last general led the fire cavalry of two hundred erlang to attack the left flank of the Zhao army and lead away the cavalry of the Zhao army. The lord took the rest of his sons and waited for the fighters to appear and raid from the right flank of the Zhao army. Zhao Jun had never seen a thunder fire bomb before, so he used the thunder fire bomb to consume the opponent's troops first. Then, depending on the changes in the battle situation, you will decide the follow-up battle plan! ”
Wu Bai felt that this method was feasible, so he said: "Then according to the method of Commander Zhang, you must be cautious!" ”
Zhang Zhao said: "Don't worry, the lord will save the province!" ”
Zhang Zhao's arrangement is very reasonable. In order to lure away the cavalry of the Zhao army, one must be extremely familiar with cavalry combat. Although Wu Bai has the experience of leading troops, when it comes to cavalry combat, he is not a little worse than Zhang Zhao.
Just before that, Wu Bai thought that the attack plan was not feasible, and it was possible that it would be bitten by the cavalry of the Zhao army, which was judged according to his own combat ability. And Zhang Zhao proposed this method again, and felt that it was feasible. This is judged by Zhang Zhao's own combat experience.
After some detailed deliberation, Wu Bai and Zhang Zhao respectively led the Agni Cavalry to set off.
……
When Adjutant General Huo Si'an learned that several spies had disappeared, he immediately became vigilant and ordered the whole army to be on guard.
Half a quarter later, a herald reported to Adjutant General Huo Si'an that the left flank of the army had found traces of cavalry.
Adjutant General Huo Si'an asked, "What is the strength of the other side?" What flag? ”
The herald replied: "Back to the general, the opponent's strength is about two hundred, and there is no banner!" ”
Vice General Huo Si'an was silent, and the force that destroyed the defenders of Yangcheng came and went without a trace. The most important thing today is the food and grass of tens of thousands of troops.
Regardless of whether this small group of cavalry has anything to do with that force or not, it cannot be extraneous.
Thinking of this, Adjutant General Huo Si'an ordered: "Order the cavalry captain to send five hundred cavalry to drive away, don't chase too far!" ”
The order was handed down, and the cavalry of the Zhao army was dispatched. Zhang Zhao led two hundred Flame Riders to fire a volley, and immediately turned around and fled.
After chasing out more than ten miles, the cavalry of the Zhao army returned to the army. Not long after, Zhang Zhao appeared in the sight of Zhao Jun's left flank. Came and went several times.
After six attacks, the Zhao army did not see Zhang Zhao and the two hundred fire riders appear for about half an hour. Thinking that this force would not appear, Zhang Zhao appeared in the field of vision of the left flank of the Zhao army with a fire horse.
With such frequent attacks, the cavalry captain of the Zhao army wanted to scold his mother! Again sent troops to chase them out. The five hundred cavalry of the Zhao State chased for about fifteen miles, and after entering a valley, there was a sudden "boom" sound behind them.
Realizing that something was wrong, the cavalry team led the team was immediately turning back, only to find that the cliff at the mouth of the valley had collapsed, blocking the road!
After several attacks, Zhang Zhao figured out the pursuit distance of the Zhao cavalry. Then he found this valley, and Hibiscus hid it at the mouth of the valley with the shadow guard. When the Zhao cavalry chased after the valley pass, they immediately used thunder bombs to trample on the cliff wall to block the way back for the Zhao cavalry.
The army of the Zhao army was only more than ten miles away from the valley, and the sound of thunder bombs stepping on the cliff wall came into the army. Vice Admiral Huo Si'an realized that it was not good. He ordered the cavalry captain to lead the remaining 1,500 cavalry to investigate.
A moment later, the cavalry captain of the Zhao army took all the cavalry away. Wu Bai, who was hidden on the right flank, said secretly: "The opportunity has come!" ”
