Like a sharp blade slashed on tofu, the flanks of the Yanzhou army were neatly cut off a large piece.

Liu Dai was prepared for the arrival of the Yulin army, and while he was angry and ordered the generals to attack the mountain with all their might, he still retained several reserves, which were guarded on both flanks, and at the same time, the defense line arranged along the river was also kept very intact.

How unnatural is the behavior of the night attack on the troops, Liu Dai can't help but take precautions.

Wang Yu's main force is fighting fiercely with Cao Cao, but the battlefield is not far from Chiping, if Wang Yu has made up his mind to attack the east and west, he can completely secretly Chen Cang, suddenly appear on the north bank of the river, and take advantage of Liu Dai's attention to focus on the night attack troops, cross the river and attack.

In addition, after Wang Yu and Cao Cao went to war, the Yulin army in Licheng crossed the border to the west and wandered hundreds of miles away. This army of soldiers and horses is watching, whether it is to contain it, or to wait for the opportunity, and to prepare to cooperate with the main force to cross the river, it is a major threat, and Liu Dai will certainly not turn a blind eye.

Liu Dai thought about it very well, but after nightfall, there were too many accidents.

First of all, the direction in which the surprise attack force appears and the target of the attack are very problematic. Even if he has evacuated most of the elite troops in his jurisdiction, there are still county soldiers left behind in various places, but where did this enemy army come from?

In addition, since the surprise attack of this enemy army is mainly to contain and harass, it should be Wang Yu's main force that launches the fatal blow, and as a result, it is the soldiers and horses of Licheng who come.

After the implementation of the new policy in Qingzhou, all signs show that although the Yulin Army has a good reputation, it looks like it has been positioned as a garrison. From the commanding style of the main general, a similar conclusion can be drawn.

What's more, due to the situation in Xuzhou and Zang Ba's restlessness, the Yulin Army, which is responsible for protecting the territory and the people, cannot get out of it at all. Even if they really go out to fight, at most they can only come by dividing their troops. There are only more than 4,000 people in Licheng, even if the whole division comes, how can they have their own 30,000 troops?

With these preconceived judgments, when the Yulin Army suddenly appeared in front of him and launched a fierce attack without hesitation, the surprise in Liu Dai's heart can be imagined.

When the figure of Yu Linjun appeared in the morning sun, Liu Dai lost all his strength. Wait until the other party is advancing at an incredible speed and kill all the way to the front. With a neat queue like a knife, when the Yanzhou army, which was busy turning around and reorganizing order, was powerless to fight back, Liu Dai's heart was like a monstrous wave.

The combat power of the Yulin Army is far stronger than he imagined!

The scale of the troops. It's also far bigger than he thought!

In the war of the Cold Weapon Age, the importance of the army's queue far exceeded that of later generations. It is unthinkable to charge in a line of stragglers, and even an untrained rabble knows that the tighter the formation, the more numerical superiority it will be.

Soldiers know that there is only a queue. in order to unleash the combat power of the army as much as possible. Therefore, the tactical problem, to a large extent, revolves around how to form a formation. How to change the formation, how to maintain the formation consistently, this series of problems unfolded.

This is typically easier said than done.

It's simple to talk on paper, and a scholar who has never fought can refute the generals in the army. The raid of the Yulin Army. It's the kind of case that can only happen on paper.

Just yesterday. The scout's return was not unusual, and although the Yulin Army was less than a hundred miles away from Chiping, it was still at a safe distance. As a result, just one night later, nearly 10,000 troops were slaughtered under their noses!

What a terrifying speed? Even if you advance along the river and walk on a flat official road, you can travel lightly, but such a march speed is too exaggerated. You know, the Yulin Army is an infantry unit, not a cavalry!

Even more terrifying than the speed of the march was the array of the Yulin Army.

The formation is very simple, it is a phalanx with little technical content, and after reading the military book for a few days, and staying in the army for a few months, it can be easily laid out.

What is shocking is that the opponent's formation change was completed in the middle of the march!

When it appeared in the field of vision, the Yulin army was still a long snake formation that was easy to travel, walking and walking, and the phalanx of two hundred people formed so naturally.

In the moment before the engagement, forty small phalanxes formed a huge phalanx, like a giant axe that opened the sky, swept from the end of the great river!

On the other hand, on the Yanzhou army's side, although it is on the defensive, to a certain extent, it is waiting for work, but both the training level of the army and the ability of the commander are far behind.

There was nothing wrong with the order, but it was biased towards the stream of consciousness, and the generals just shouted desperately, shouting out the orders to turn the whole team and turn, completely ignoring the execution ability of the soldiers, and there was no targeted order. Therefore, the Yanzhou Army can only mess around like headless flies, becoming a negative teaching material to set off the elite of the Yulin Army.

The giant axe-like phalanx seemed to be cut on tofu, and with a casual wave, a piece was neatly cut off on the top of the Yanzhou military array. The Yanzhou army is like grass in a strong wind, there is no resistance at all, and when a gust of wind blows, it will fall into a piece, and there is no deviation at all.

Even in the midst of the battle, the array of the Yulin Army was still extremely neat, such as Lin's spear constantly expanding and expanding and stabbing, and while assassinating, it also always maintained a forward attack posture.

It seems unreasonable to move forward while exerting force to assassinate, but if you look closely, you will find that it is not surprising at all that assassination and advance are carried out separately.

It is only the spearmen in the first three rows who complete the assassination, and the soldiers in the back will continue to advance along the gap left by the front row, and when they encounter the enemy again, they will also raise their spears and stab forward, while giving up their positions to the next one.

This kind of tactics makes the attack of the Yulin Army have a strong continuity, like a wave, one wave is not settled, one wave is rising, one wave is rising, one after another, and it is always moving forward.

Under the attack of this extremely oppressive tactic, the Yanzhou army, which was already caught off guard, was even more dizzy.

If they want to resist, the scattered formation is destined to have to fight on their own, how can they resist the Yulin Army fighting in the array?

It is also difficult for a strong man to break his wrist, abandon the troops that are engaged in the battle, and distance himself in order to regroup. The tactics of the Yulin Army were too oppressive, wave after wave, continuously, sticking to the Yanzhou Army, and there was no gap between the distance.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Yanzhou army's queue was too dense, so that the soldiers in the forward position could not turn around, and could only face the battle, they would probably have fled.

The space that is opened will be filled with routs in an instant, and then become the vanguard of the charge. Driving the defeated soldiers back into the enemy's formation, this is the essence of the strategy of the bead curtain inverted in the art of war.

In addition to tactical factors, the terrain also limited the room for adjustment of the Yanzhou army.

The position chosen by Liu Dai is very safe to defend to the north, but if it is reversed, it is not so powerful. In a river bend, the result of squeezing an army of 30,000 is that there is no depth.

The Yulin Army came from the east, with Chishan Mountain occupied by surprise troops to the south, and surrounded by a large river to the north and west, and only the narrow strip between the river and Chiping was passable.

If there is no depth in strategy, it will be attacked from all sides, and it will be easy to be pinned down by the enemy. There is no depth in tactics, and no matter how many troops there are, they will not be able to exert themselves.

The Yanzhou army seems to have become a large piece of glutinous rice, squeezed into the crockpot of the river bay, and constantly hammered by the pounding pestle of the Yulin army, which will become a sticky cake at any time, this is the status quo.

"Hold on, brethren, hold on to me!"

"Hold on, there are a lot of us, and we will fight them to death!"

"Behind is the big river! We have no way out, we have a fight against the water, and only by beating the enemy back can we have a way to live! ”

The command of the stream of consciousness of the Yanzhou generals is still continuing, and it is impossible to do it without the stream of consciousness, and the situation is already a mess. Under the continuous pressure of the Yulin Army, the forward began to disperse, and following the gap between the arrays, the rout was involved in the rear formation, which intensified the chaos in the rear formation.

There are soldiers everywhere, but it is difficult to distinguish which general's soldiers are under the command of the general, in this case, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, whether he has the ability to reorganize the queue is a question, not to mention the Yanzhou army that does not have any famous generals in the army?

However, although this word is often mentioned, throughout the ages, there have only been two examples of the real Last Battle. The people who played these two battles are heroes who are rare to see in a century, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, and Han Xin, the god of war.

Only these two heroes can turn decay into magic and turn the battle of the back into a classic. Imitators who are not capable enough can only be beaten all over the ground to find their teeth.

The efforts of the generals did not bear fruit, and they didn't even have time to test the results, and it was the enemy on the mountain who gave them an even worse blow.

Just as Qi Cheng was worried, the night attack troops were all archers, and they were all strong men from one out of ten. They didn't plan to leave a chance for the Yanzhou army at all, and with the advance of the Yulin army, they filled the strong bow in their hands, and with a condescending momentum, they sent a rain of arrows into the Yanzhou army's military formation.

The longbow was pointed everywhere, and everyone turned over on their backs, mourning all over the place.

The current situation is that the iron bucket array chosen by Liu Dai has put himself in, which can be regarded as the best interpretation of self-inflicted evil and not being able to live.

Looking at the general flag raised on the top of the mountain, and then looking at the phalanx of the Yulin Army, Liu Dai didn't even have the strength to moan.

The night attack was Huang Zhong, this person is good at shooting, once shot Xu Rong's military flag with an arrow, and the army brought out has a large number of archers, which is indeed not surprising.

And Yu Ban's offensive is so fierce, of course, it is not only because of the soldiers, if you want to maintain such a strong offensive, sufficient troops are also necessary. The Yulin Army did not fight separately, but came from the whole division!

Although there are many generals under Wang Yu's command, in fact, there are only three who are in charge, Yu Ban and Huang Zhong are here, and they have taken the lead, and they have suffered defeats, and there is nothing to say, but the problem is ......

Liu Dai roared viciously in his heart: "Wang Yu, this madman, in order to defeat himself, doesn't he even want the nest?" In the world, who is fighting like this? ”
