Chapter 234: Cao Jun, who is overly hot-blooded
"Restrain your soldiers! Don't let them get dizzy! Li Yu stood on the wheel of the carriage and shouted loudly, if he didn't give the order, he was afraid that there would already be over-blooded soldiers leading the battle; The black pressure of a figure swayed, in addition to the color of the armor is the color of blood red, it is not an exaggeration to say that this place is a flesh and blood grinding plate, the green weeds are also rendered with a tragic color, for the different beliefs they carry, they throw their heads and spill blood without regrets
In the face of this kind of general war of more than 400,000 people, how many people do not yearn for it? As long as it is a passionate person, they will be enthusiastic at this time, and they can't control themselves, which is also the reason why Li Yu shouted, he was afraid that someone would take the lead, and if someone took the lead to go out, the rest of the people would not care if there were any orders; He is here to take advantage now, but not to let the soldiers die, in this case, if he doesn't stop them, it will be a disaster, and in the end, if the strategic goal is not achieved, he may be bitten by Yuan Shao; It is very strange that at this time, in the face of the bloody battlefield, more people are eager to make contributions on the battlefield, rather than being afraid and cowardly
"Steady! Steady! - No movement without an order! Violators will be killed! Li Yu roared hoarsely, using Cao Jun's strict military regulations to restrain these over-blooded Qiu Ba!
Man is a social animal and has rules of behavior for walking in groups
"Xiahoudun! Darn! Sober me up! Restrain them! Li Yu jumped to his feet and scolded, because he found that not only these soldiers, but even the main generals in the army had red eyes and snorted roughly, obviously excited, "Why don't you eat?" Depend on! ”
In this case, Li Yu didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to make these people sober and look at Xiahoudun as if he hadn't heard of it, Li Yu covered his forehead, feeling that he was wishful thinking! It's better to be blocked! it! Let's go!
"Wei Yan, Hua Xiong! Attack the left flank of Gaoshun! Ma Chao, Cao Chun! Attack the right flank of Gao Shun! Xiahoudun! Catch up with the Gao Shun Chinese Army! Li Yu had no choice but to give such an order, and after walking around, he found that the Lord had taken back the work of mobilizing the army by him, which was really extremely depressing;" Promise! ——", everyone responded in unison, and at this time they were much more sober, and rushed out with a whistle; A large number of military horses broke away from Cao's army's Chinese army and rushed out in a swarm; "Drive!" , Cao Ang was also excited, his legs were clamped between the horse's belly and the steel gun was held, and he rushed out majestically, Li Yugang wanted to catch him, but he was empty; "Oh! no! ——! Li Yu sighed, he didn't know what it was like in his heart, he could only watch Cao Ang step on this battlefield without knowing whether he was alive or dead, if something happened to him, how could he explain it to Cao Cao? Li Yu thought helplessly; Looking at Cao Pi in his arms, Li Yu could only sigh a few times: "Fortunately, your kid is still young!" ”
"I can't wait to gallop on the field! Kill the enemy! ", Xiao P's face was very serious, and he said quietly; This sentence can hurt Li Yu a lot; "Qujiang! The medical team keeps up! Ignoring the countless distractions in his heart, Li Yu said solemnly, since it has been opened! Then you have to win!
"Yes! Mr! Qu Jiang arched his hand, and hundreds of battlefield soldiers poured out, followed by more than 1,000 medical soldiers who specially helped them transport the wounded, each pushing a wooden cart to transport the wounded out; Push forward a little! Li Yu ordered, and the guards beside him looked embarrassed: "Sir! Isn't that okay? It's too dangerous! ”
"Shut up!" , Li Yu shouted coldly: "As the main general, Xiahoudun has lost his proportion!" I don't command the army, who will come? Hurry up! ”
The guards had no choice but to drive forward, of course, Li Yu was now a Boos-level figure, and he was still guarded by more than 300 people, but these 300 people were compared to the more than 400,000 people in this war combined, it was a drop in the ocean, and it was difficult to protect him thoroughly, so the guards persuaded him so much; Each army has its own set of flags, which is an inevitable need in war, small battles of hundreds, thousands, those talented big voices may be able to directly convey orders, but this kind of battle with more than 400,000 troops on both sides combined!
Even if you shout out your voice, it won't help! The roar is like thunder, all kinds of voices are noisy, the battle line is nearly ten miles long, what person's voice can cover the entire battlefield? Isn't it? Therefore, the appearance of the flag is also inevitable; At this time, the flag language is also very simple, that is, a person stands on a high place, and then raises a few things in his hand to launch an order, which is very simple and not complicated at all; Generally speaking, the most widely used is a large flag with a weapon painted on it, if it is an archery, it is a bow and arrow pattern, if it is an attack, it is a fist, if it is a person's imagination is infinite!
This kind of graphic flag language also avoids that many illiterate people can't understand orders, and more importantly, it avoids the appearance of illiterate generals, don't laugh! People like Dian Wei, he doesn't know even the big guys, and he can't even write his name; According to these orders, the generals, captains, and even the battalion commanders, cantonment commanders, and army commanders who are one level lower will adjust the strength of the troops, and then make specific adjustments;
"Order them! Put the bow and arrow first! Drive and retreat inward! Li Yu said; He is very glad now, fortunately that they are at the outermost periphery of this mille-feuille pie, so that he has a great choice in tactics, he can calmly attack inward, or retreat outward; Li Yu intended to drive the Bingzhou army led by Gao Shun into it, causing them to be crowded together with the Bingzhou army led by Lu Bu, so that they could squeeze each other and compress the battlefield space; After the generals of the Cao army rushed out, their bloody energy retreated slightly, and their minds were refreshed, and at this time they began to think about how to win this war, and at the same time they were a little ashamed of their recklessness; Standing on the roof of Li Yu's carriage, a strong man will dance the flag in his hand, and several generals of the Cao army were relieved when they saw the order, but fortunately there was a calm person! It's a good feeling!
With the roar of the war drums, Cao Jun stopped fifty meters outside the battle circle, and the archers opened their bows and pulled arrows unreasonably, first released three rounds of arrow rain, and the state army snorted continuously, with many dead and wounded, holding up shields, many Bingzhou troops tried to attack Cao Jun; But this action came to an abrupt end with Gao Shun's order, they are now mainly defensive for Cao Jun's actions in the rear army, what can really change the situation of the war is the internal decisive battle, that is the key to changing the fate, Gao Shun handed over all the military power in his hands, he now only retains the command of 10,000 horses, and his task is to keep the stability of the rear army, to prevent the offensive of the Cao army from affecting the decisive battle between Lu Bu and Yuan Shao; Motionless? Then shoot again! Seeing that the Bingzhou army did not move, Li Yu was stunned for a moment, obviously this situation was beyond his expectations, and after being stunned for a while, he ordered to continue shaking the flag of archery; The bow and arrow is the only strategic weapon in this era that can change the situation on the battlefield, and this is definitely not an exaggeration, because he is the only means of long-range attack! You must know that there are no trebuchets or anything like that at this time, even crossbow arrows are derivatives of bows and arrows!
The weakness of the bow and arrow is that it takes time to prepare for the inability to fire continuously, so in many cases three rounds of arrow shooting is already his limit, which refers to the preparation before contact between the two armies in the battle, and it is also a requirement within the range
Off topic
If the state army does not move like a mountain, then the Cao army will invade like fire, not only that, but also the fine lines and slow fire, slowly stewed! If three rounds of arrows are not enough, then shoot a ** round, and if you don't believe it, you won't come out!
Gao Shun rode on the war horse, calmly observing the situation on the battlefield, after handing over the military power to Lu Bu, he had a sense of relief, he didn't have to think about those miscellaneous things, Gao Shun who concentrated on fighting was the real Gao Shun, and it was also the most terrible Gao Shun; "Shield!" "Raise your gun!" "Kill! Simple characters kept coming out of Gao Shun's mouth, and orders were conveyed one after another, and according to his command, the state army was constantly adjusted, and it was in front of Cao's army, who wanted to break through; Thirty steps back! Shoot again! The Bingzhou army only slowly pressed outward, and did not use the strong mobility of the cavalry to fight with the Cao army hand-to-hand, and because of the lack of bow and arrow equipment, he did not play with the Cao army, Li Yu noticed this, and gave an order with some playfulness; A war is a war, no matter how enthusiastic the soldiers of the Cao army are to rush over and show their skills on the battlefield, now they must obey orders, anyway, they have seen blood, and the excitement has gradually stabilized, and they should also implement tactics; The retreat of Cao's army is also very interesting, under the personal command of Xiahoudun, the front rows of about 3,000 soldiers split from the two wings and then retreated to the rear, and the space of thirty paces was opened up again, the purpose of this is also because the arrows of the archers in front are insufficient, and the arrows of the soldiers who happened to go up from the new top are still in a full state
Because the queue has depth, and the range of bows and arrows is only sixty paces, only a few thousand soldiers in the front row can shoot bows and arrows, and if they do this, they are afraid that they will not be able to kill the enemy, and they will kill their own people first, which is really a joke, so these soldiers have a lesson in blood and tears after training, and do not do it like a rookie; Gao Shun already understood Li Yu's thoughts a little, but he had to be led by Li Yu's nose, so he could only let the soldiers move forward, and then Xiahoudun ordered to retreat another thirty steps, and repeated several times, Gao Shun had already broken away from the main army and moved forward a lot; Li Yu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's done!" Order the wings to outflank! Eat them first! ”
