Chapter 623 Pang Tong offers a plan

"Oh, that's fine." Hearing that Zhang Chao likes Lejin very much, Lu Bu's face also has joy.

"Hehe, it's just that the general shouldn't just focus on Lejin, there should be a Wei army coming behind us soon, and the general should also be on guard." Pang Tong touched the goat's mustache he had just grown, and said with an unfathomable look.

The two have been partners for many years, and he has long known that his military advisor is not simple, and now after hearing about it, he nodded and said: "The military advisor has been calculated, there should be a way." ”

"Hehe, the general can arrange for Hou Cheng and Chun Yuqiong, the two deputy commanders, to each lead 30,000 cavalry to ambush in the woods on the official road, just wait for the Wei army's men and horses to arrive, and then block the back road. Pang Tong put forward a strategy while talking and laughing.

"Yes, exactly." Lu Bu laughed when he heard this, and then called the two deputy commanders and made some arrangements.

After everything was done, Lu Bu took the 140,000 army without any scruples and headed towards the Lejin camp five miles ahead.

Le Jin just put up a defensive position, and when he saw patches of dust and smoke rising in the distance, he knew that it should be Lu Bu who had arrived.

"The archers are ready, and the rest of the cavalry is mounted and ready to charge." Le Jin quickly adjusted the arrangement, 5,000 archers in front for a long attack, 5,000 pikemen in the back to deal with the cavalry, and he led another 20,000 cavalry to attack, in his opinion, such a formation may be able to deal a heavy blow to the vanguard legion.

To say that Lejin is indeed a general, he has some strategies and is cautious, if he is under the same force, I am afraid that Lu Bu will have to take a lot of effort to defeat him. Only this time he only had 30,000 soldiers and horses, and in the face of the vanguard army with 140,000 troops, he was doomed to suffer a big loss just by comparing forces.

Not to mention that he can become the cavalry of the vanguard legion, then the kung fu on the horse and the kung fu on the arrow are not ordinary, and the role that such a formation can play is very limited.

As Lu Bu approached with the army step by step, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and when there were only two miles away, in this open land, Lu Bu had already seen Lejin's arrangements in his eyes. "Humph! With only 30,000 people, what can you do if you set up a formation? ”

Thinking like this, Lu Bu didn't even ask the cavalry to stop and sort out the formation, but rushed straight away with 140,000 cavalry, and the sound of rolling horse hooves fell to the ground, shaking the land slightly.

"Here it is, archers ready." Within his line of sight, he could vaguely see the black-clothed cavalry from far and near, and Le Jin, as a general, took out the big ring knife and rode on the war horse.

"Charge, Fuma is ready to release arrows." At this moment, Lu Bu, who was rushing straight forward, also saw that the Wei army was prepared, and immediately leaned towards the horse, while reaching out and taking out the longbow from his back, while shouting.

With Lu Bu's action, the cavalry of the vanguard legion who charged with him also followed suit, and one by one they lay their heads on the war horse as much as possible, which has the advantage of minimizing the force surface, and then can also defend with the help of the war armor on the war horse.

Zhang Chao's cavalry is not just a soldier on horseback, they have three advantages that are incomparable with other armies.

First, all war horses are good products, if the horses are not strong enough, or old enough to serve, they can only be in the army logistics to pull food. Compared with the war horses of other armies, the advantage is not small.

Second, all horses are saddled with iron spikes on the soles of their feet, which allows the knight to better control them, and the horses can also be used for more durability on long journeys. This has a strong advantage over the war horses of other armies.

Finally, all the war horses are equipped with vests, which are not very heavy, so that the speed will not be affected too much when running, but this thing covers a large area, which can play a role in blocking distant bows and arrows in war, and can not be said to be completely resisted, at least the threat can be minimized.

It can be said that while others are vigorously expanding their armies through the situation of money bank stickers, the Celestial Empire is indeed upgrading the various weapons they have. It's like these vests are newly developed, and the cost is not very low, at least with these things, you can recruit another legion. And now the Zhangjia Weapons Academy is still studying the saber made of stainless steel, once such a weapon is made, the ordinary sword will be like paper paste after the match, which will invisibly increase the overall strength of the cavalry.

Not much to say, as Lu Bu approached step by step with the cavalry of the vanguard legion, and gradually reached the range where the bow and arrow could attack, General Le Jin also gave the order to release the arrows, and at the same time, he also rushed forward with the left and right wings and 10,000 cavalry.

In the face of the cavalry that rushed straight ahead, Lejin chose to fight hard, and there was no way to do it.

The cavalry, with its speed and its own weight, once he was allowed to rush into the camp of the infantry, it was likely to be a one-sided slaughter, and the only way to resolve this situation was to slow down his speed as much as possible, so as to reduce his sharpness and eat away step by step.

Of course, it is impossible to rely on the 30,000 Wei army to block the main force of the Celestial Empire's vanguard legion, and now Lejin just hopes to block it for a while, in short, it is absolutely impossible for them to break through the defense line and chase after the retreating King of Wei.

Bows and arrows were fired, the cavalry assaulted left and right, and the Wei army came directly to the vanguard army.

Whoa... There was a tinkling sound like fairy music, a fierce sound of bows and arrows hitting the waistcoat.

Because the cavalry of the vanguard regiment were all lying on their horses, most of the bows and arrows did not hit the target, and only a few cavalrymen were unlucky and were shot by stray arrows, but most of them were only wounded and did not die in critical condition.

The speed of the war horse is getting faster and faster, and the distance of more than three hundred steps can be reached in just a dozen breaths. Seeing that he was within the range of the enemy's bow and arrow, Lu Bu had already set up the bow and arrow in his hand, and with a loud sound, the bow and arrow galloped in.

Lu Bu's counterattack was like a clarion call for a counterattack, and the other cavalry of the vanguard legion also followed suit, shooting their bows and arrows forward. Their target was not only the Wei archers on the opposite side, but also the 20,000 Wei cavalry coming from the left and right.

Just after shooting an arrow, Lu Bu suddenly straightened his lying body, and then held Fang Tian's halberd in his hand, and shouted, "Surprise attack left and right, the Chinese army rushes straight away, kill!" ”

"Kill!" Behind them, the cavalry of the Vanguard Legion, who could not see the end at a glance, all held their breath when they saw the main general so brave, this was a good time for them to perform well and compete for military merit.

The vanguard army attacked with bows and arrows, and the five thousand Wei archers in the distance were like leeks, and a large piece was cut down, and even the cavalry led by Le Jin was injured and fell to their deaths.

This wave of bows and arrows directly had a great impact on the Wei army, and when their formation was a little chaotic, Lu Bu had already taken the lead in breaking through from the middle and killing the Wei army's archer camp.

With just a wave of the halberd, at least two heads and bodies were separated, and the blood that spewed straight into the air brought up a blood-colored pillar of light.

"Kill!" He had just killed two archers, and behind him, three pikemen of the Wei army shouted in unison, and their hands slammed forward.

In the face of the sudden change, it is difficult to escape from these three spearmen if they are replaced by other cavalry, but this is Lu Bu, the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms period, seeing the three spears that appeared a little abruptly in front of him, his eyes showed a trace of contempt, and then he saw that his left hand was violently strengthened, and the reins of the horse were tightly grasped by him in his hand. He jumped over the heads of the three pikemen.

As soon as he jumped over, Lu Bu fell into the camp of the pikemen, and the red rabbit horse just raised his iron hooves, and kicked a Wei soldier who wanted to take advantage of his unstable position to sneak attack, and the kick flew more than a foot away.

The Red Rabbit Horse also knew the protector, not to mention that Lu Bu was still safe and sound, after he fell into the lineup of pikemen, he was like a wolf in the sheepfold, still a fierce wolf. Seeing that the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand waved left and right, constantly spinning, and one by one the Wei soldiers who wanted to approach him fell to the ground, and at the same time, the long halberd also brought bursts of blood mist under the swing.

Lu Bu's power is so powerful. Unexpectedly, every time a halberd is fired, a Wei soldier is bound to die with blood.

As Lu Bu gained a firm foothold, the other cavalry of the vanguard legion also killed one after another. Their arrival was like a fresh breeze blowing in their faces, blowing down and blowing away the Wei soldiers who were like smoke.

In the frontal battlefield, because Lu Bu took the lead, he had begun to gain absolute superiority. The condescending situation gave the cavalry a great advantage, and the infantry of the Wei army seemed to have little power to fight back, except to be killed or killed.

LΓΌ Bu's bravery stimulated the cavalry of the vanguard legion, and the same bravery of Lejin also stimulated the cavalry of the Wei army.

Just when the central battlefield was about to be repulsed and disabled, General Le Jin also led his Wei cavalry and the cavalry of the vanguard corps to collide head-on, and with his heroic strength, he killed three cavalrymen in a row, showing his majesty.
