Chapter 503: Destroying the Cavalry
Zhao Fei didn't take the performance of Yuan Jun's generals to heart at all, after all, Zhao Fei could still understand them. If someone lectured him for no reason in front of him, Zhao Fei would naturally be in a bad mood, even if he didn't show it, but naturally he was very angry in his heart.
Similarly, Yuan Shao also had a lot of grievances in his heart about his rhetoric with Zhao Fei. He invited Cao Jun to come because he broke the enemy, and now that Cao Jun has not done anything, Zhao Fei began to criticize his soldiers, which made Yuan Shao how to bear it.
Zhao Fei let the soldiers of Yuan Jun speak, he did not say a word, but looked at the performance of the soldiers of Yuan Jun with cold eyes. On the other hand, Yuan Shaoqiang endured the dislike in his heart, and asked Zhao Fei, "What does Peng Ju mean by this?" ”
Hearing Yuan Shao's words, Zhao Fei's expression changed. He looked up at Yuan Shao, and then asked, "I want to ask what was the most powerful cavalry of Gongsun Zhan at the beginning?" ”
Hearing this, Yuan Shao was slightly stunned, and then said: "I still need to ask, the most powerful thing about Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is its powerful impact and mobility. This is something that the infantry is really hard to match. ”
"Since you knew it at the beginning, why did you give up the defense and hedge against Gongsun Zhan's cavalry?" Zhao Fei said coldly.
Hearing Zhao Fei's question, Yuan Shao suddenly didn't know how to answer. Zhao Fei's words are not bad at all, Gongsun Zhan's cavalry has a strong impact, if he can hold the Chinese army, so that Gongsun Zhan's cavalry cannot exert its due strength, then it must be himself who wins in the end.
"What Lord Taiwei said is light, Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is so strong, how can we defend against the powerful impact ability of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry." As soon as Zhao Fei's words were finished, a Yuan military strategist said in a cold voice.
Hearing the words of this Yuan military strategist, Zhao Fei could feel the hostility he was playing. Although he didn't know why this person was hostile to him, Zhao Fei couldn't help but glance at that person a few times.
"I don't know if you are, sir?" Zhao Fei asked in a deep voice. There were many strategists in Yuan's army, and Zhao Fei only knew Tian Feng and Fu Zhu.
Hearing Zhao Fei's question, the strategist of Yuan Jun looked at Zhao Fei, and then said in a deep voice: "I am a strategist under the command of the lord, and I will be judged." ”
"Matching." Zhao Fei nodded secretly, he knew that the trial match was also Yuan Jun's more capable strategist, he stared at the trial, and then said in a deep voice: "Sir, why do you need to grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige, sir, do you think that Yuan Jun is weaker than Gongsun Zhan?" ”
Zhao Fei's words made the trial match not know how to answer, originally the meaning of the trial was that he took the initiative to want Zhao Fei to show weakness, and then hoped that Cao Jun could take on this heavy responsibility. But now that Zhao Fei said this, the next words beside him couldn't be said.
If you really admit that your skills are not as good as others, then this face will really be lost. Although the Yuan army was in a weak position in several battles with Gongsun Zhan, the Yuan army would not think that he would be weaker than Gongsun Zhan's soldiers.
If this was said by himself, it would definitely be a great blow to Yuan Jun's morale. Now that he can't beat Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, if the morale is dropping by three points, then how can the Yuan army still have any hope of victory.
looked at Zhao Fei coldly, and didn't say anything. Seeing that the judge didn't speak, Zhao Fei showed a smile, and then said: "I see that the Yuan army has enough soldiers and food, and all the soldiers are well-equipped, can't I find a unit that can be entrusted with important tasks?" ”
Zhao Fei's question made the generals of Yuan Jun suddenly a little annoyed and angry. However, with Zhao Fei's words, all the strategists under Yuan Shao's command looked at Zhao Fei differently. Zhao Fei was really powerful, and he easily pushed such a heavy task on Yuan Jun's body.
Zhao Fei's idea was good, if he could limit the powerful impact of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, Gongsun Zhan's cavalry could naturally be wiped out. As long as the mobility of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is limited, then his cavalry will be no different from foot.
However, if you want to limit the powerful impact of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, you need to fill it with the lives of the soldiers. Only in the case of a crowd of people can Gongsun Zhan's cavalry be restrained by Yuan's army, and if this is the case, then the number of soldiers to be consumed is an astronomical amount.
In the face of such a huge loss, Yuan Jun did not want to bear it. For Zhao Fei, this is the more urgent impossible. After all, he led the Cao army just to reinforce Yuan Shao, and he didn't want the soldiers of the Cao army to die for Yuan Shao.
After pacifying Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao would naturally move south. For the sake of a man who will soon become an enemy, he cannot let his soldiers die.
Yuan Jun naturally knew this, but if they could, they naturally hoped that Cao Jun could contribute. However, looking at the current form, Zhao Fei is definitely not allowed to do anything, if he wants to concentrate firepower to destroy Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, he really has to count on the soldiers of the Yuan army.
"Another point, although Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is highly mobile, they have a fatal weakness. In order to mention the cavalry's strong mobility ability, the knight naturally had to reduce the load, so their defense could only be secondary. Zhao Fei glanced at the generals of the Yuan army and said.
Zhao Fei's words were naturally known to the generals of the Yuan army, but they did not expect that if they used this weakness to deal with Gongsun Zhan's cavalry. You must know that Gongsun Zhan's cavalry came like a shadow and went like the wind, and it was somewhat unlikely that they wanted to inflict a fatal blow on it.
Seeing Yuan Jun's expressions up and down, Zhao Fei knew what they were thinking. He smiled slightly, and then said to Yuan Shao: "The cavalry has strong mobility, but the defense is low, I don't know if I have considered a strong crossbow or a strong attack to kill the cavalry." ”
"With elite crossbowmen forming a battle formation, shooting Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, and then backed by a powerful Chinese army, as long as the speed of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is stifled, then Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is a moving target, let us hunt it." Zhao Fei said with a wit in his eyes.
Hearing Zhao Fei's words, Yuan Shao's eyes suddenly lit up. At this time, he regretted it very much, regretting why he didn't think of such a good way. Not only Yuan Shao, but even the military generals under Yuan Shao's command, they all showed a slightly ashamed expression.
Zhao Fei's words were not false at all, if the cavalry who hunted Gongsun Zhan with a strong crossbow, then they must be in a catastrophe. Because with the weak defense of the cavalry, they could not resist the shot of Yuan's strong crossbow.
Speaking of this, Zhao Fei suddenly had an idea. For the defensive cavalry, the best is tantamount to a pikeman. Shoot with spears in the front section, and then shoot with strong crossbows and spears, and then Gongsun Zhan's cavalry can still escape the hunt.
Thinking of this, Zhao Fei showed an excited expression. And Yuan Shao caught Zhao Fei's expression, and then hurriedly asked, "What did Peng Ju think of again, and he actually showed such an expression." ”
Zhao Fei looked at Yuan Shao, and then told Yuan Shao everything he had just thought. After Yuan Shao heard Zhao Fei's words, he immediately showed a puzzled expression. Can the spear formation limit the impact of the cavalry, and if so, why did the pikemen under his command not bring huge losses to Gongsun Zhan.
Yuan Shao asked his doubts, while Zhao Fei smiled, he stared at Yuan Shao, and then said: "This spear array is not a simple pikeman, the spears used in the spear array must be specially made. ”
Hearing Zhao Fei's words, both Yuan Shao and Tian Feng and the others all showed a puzzled expression. They really wanted to know what kind of spear Zhao Fei was referring to.
"With the strength of one person, we naturally can't resist the impact of the cavalry, but if the spear is lengthened so that the spear has a support point, then even if Gongsun Zhan's cavalry has a strong impact, can they break through the earth?" Zhao Fei's words were cold, and it was obvious that when he said this, Zhao Fei had already decided the fate of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry.
Hearing Zhao Fei's brilliant idea, Tian Feng and the others all sighed secretly. No wonder Zhao Fei can win every battle, his whimsical ideas are really amazing. In previous battles, Tian Fengke had never heard of such a method of dealing with cavalry.
