Chapter 375, Battle Xiangyang
"It's a pity, a medium-sized formation like this can only limit Bai Ma Yicong's instant, if only it took a little longer. "Yuan Shao saw Lu Yi's meritorious service, and finally put down his heart, "It's a pity that the cost of this thing is too high, and you still need someone to refine the formation flag, if there is a large formation, it should be able to trap all the white horse Yi for a while."www.biquge.info ”
"The lord can't have this idea, the formation is still an outer way, and only improving the military strength under his command is the right way." Xu You admonished, "Not to mention that refining these array flags requires a lot of precious materials, which consumes a huge amount of money, and it also requires specialized outsiders to refine them. Even if you can lay down the formation flag of that kind of large-scale formation, once you meet a top strategist, you can see through it at a glance, and it won't work at all. This time he was able to succeed by luck, thanks to the fact that Gongsun Chan had no talents under his command. The real talents were all sent by Gongsun Chan to be small officials. ”
"Well, what Ziyuan said is very true, but I think about it badly." Yuan Shao said with some embarrassment, and then looked at the field, "I just don't know if Lu Yi can wipe out Bai Ma Yi completely?" ”
"The lord must believe in General Lu Yi, look, the counterattack has been attacked." Xu Yu said.
……
After the second crossbow was fired, the soldiers under Lu Yi's command changed to the third crossbow and continued to shoot at Bai Ma Yicong. And while shooting crossbow arrows, he rushed towards the white horse Yoshiko, who had been reduced to a plate of scattered sand.
Gongsun Xu is not Gongsun Chan after all, although he is extremely brave at a young age, but he has no battlefield experience, 3,000 people, three triple crossbows, nearly 30,000 crossbow arrows, in a short period of time, poured into the army formation of the White Horse Yicong, directly killed more than half of the White Horse Yicong, and directly stunned the young Gongsun Xu, and lost his mind on the battlefield. It wasn't until Lu Yi came over that he finally woke up from the shock, and for a while fear filled his heart, and in front of everyone, he actually made an incredible decision to turn around and return.
Lu Yi's army counter-charged and reloaded with crossbow arrows as they ran. Seeing Gongsun Xu turn around and leave, the white horse Yicong with him was even more confused, and he was actually a little distracted. But soon, he came to his senses.
"The strongest army under Gongsun Chan's command is nothing more than that. Brothers, let me kill and destroy the white horse. Lu Yi shouted.
Gongsun Zhan's face was pale, and he was furious, this anger was not only aimed at Lu Yi, but also at his son Gongsun Xu.
It's been a few days since I took him to the battlefield, but my heart is still not enough, and I was actually frightened by this blow. What he wanted to do was not to turn the horse's head and turn back, but to continue to attack with the white horse.
"Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand! The sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof! This is not just talking, the reason why White Horse Yicong has such a strong combat effectiveness, the words "life and death together" are engraved on the hearts of all White Horse Yicong. Bai Ma Yi has never died, but they are brave and loyal, and they will never retreat because the enemy is strong, but will only move forward and kill all the enemies to avenge their comrades. It is this spirit that makes White Horse Yicong win many battles.
However, this time, it was not Gongsun Chan who was the commander of Bai Ma Yi, and Gongsun Xu didn't understand the essence of Bai Ma Yicong's special army, and when he met a strong enemy, he actually retreated. This retreat made Bai Ma Yicong, who originally had an invincible will, have a flaw, and he no longer has the previous mentality.
Just when Bai Ma Yicong was in chaos, Lu Yi arrived with his soldiers, 3,000 crossbows were raised again, and the crossbow arrows flew towards Bai Ma Yicong again.
"This rebel has ruined half of my life's work." Gongsun Chan was furious and immediately stepped forward in person.
"Lord Calm your anger, now is not the time to be rash, you still need to command the army." Guan Jing grabbed Gongsun Zhan, "Let's fight a decisive battle immediately, maybe we can save the prince and some white horse followers." ”
"It's better for this evil animal to die." Gongsun Chan said angrily. Although he said so, he still ordered the whole army to attack.
At the place where the flag waved, the drums continued to sound, and Gongsun Zhan's infantry began to step forward to meet the white horse righteous servant.
Lu Yi was unmoved, and after shooting the three crossbows again, he roared, and the 3,000 crossbowmen discarded the extra arrows on their bodies, and with their broadswords, they killed the white horse servants who were only a few thousand left. From beginning to end, he only stared at this army, and left nothing else.
The 3,000 crossbowmen under Lu Yi's command are of course not simple soldiers, but a special type of troops trained by Lu Yi himself - waiting for the dead first.
The so-called first climbing, is the first to climb the city wall in the siege, in the era of cold weapons, only the most elite, the least afraid of death people dare to undertake this kind of task. In the Hundred Years of the Three Kingdoms Campaign, there are not a few generals who break the city first, but only Lu Yi, this special type of military force is called "the first to die".
Lu Yi has a poor reputation in history, and there are few historical records, but they are all powerful on the battlefield. betraying Han Fu made him helpless; After attaching Yuan Shao, Jieqiao defeated more than 10,000 cavalry of Gongsun Chan with 800 strong crossbows in the first battle, and then defeated Gongsun Chan several times, and played an important role until his death; defeated the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Fuluo; Defeated the Montenegrin thief Zhang Yan...... But in the end, because of his arrogance, he was killed by Yuan Shao.
Lu Yi has been in Liangzhou for a long time, and he knows how to fight, so he can formulate the most reasonable attack plan for the weakness of the cavalry. The weakest point of the light cavalry is defense, so Lu Yi used a light crossbow - and a triple crossbow to directly abolish the white horse Yicong.
Of course, this is also due to the inertia of the game, referring to history, no player can change the plot, and it is doomed to the tragedy of Gongsun Zhan.
Gongsun Chan attacked with all his might, and Yuan Shao dealt with it well, although there were few people, but Yuan Shaojun, who had senior generals and strategists, was not weaker than Gongsun Chan at all, and threw them over one by one with limited skills, plus Zhang Yang and Yu Fuluo's reinforcements, and finally gained the upper hand to defeat Gongsun Zhan.
The battle lasted for a whole day, and it didn't end until dark, and in the end, the commanders of both sides came on the field, and Gongsun Chan approached Yuan Shao several times, wanting to directly capture Yuan Shao to end the battle, but finally did not succeed. Yuan Shao also stepped forward in person, fought bloodily, boosted morale, and defeated Gongsun Zhan.
……
Liu Feng didn't see the battle with his own eyes, and only read the posts on the forums from players who specialize in selling news. When he knew that Lu Yi defeated Hakuba Yoshiko with a triple crossbow, he immediately wanted to enter the game and return to San'in to supervise the development of the repeater.
He ransacked the general prison and didn't get much, the blueprints of the rhubarb crossbow were there, but the repeater was gone, let alone the triple crossbow.
……
Gongsun Zhan took advantage of the night to escape, and after returning to Bohai, he did not continue to stay, and after resting, he returned directly to Youzhou.
Yuan Shao did not pursue, but gathered the remnants of the army, cleaned up the battlefield, and then returned to Yecheng, even taking care of the Bohai Sea. Because taking advantage of the days of their war, Liu Bei and Zhang Yan were encroaching on his territory, and they couldn't take care of one person at all.
Yuan Shao made a name for himself, and when he came back, Liu Bei and Zhang Yan took a lot of captives very tacitly, took away a large number of people, and then put on a defensive look. Yuan Shao had just finished the war and was in urgent need of recovery, so he could not fight urgently, so he could only give up. But everyone knows that after the cultivation is over, the three sides will inevitably go to war again.
When the news reached Yuan Shu's side, Yuan Shu, who had always felt that he was one level higher than Yuan Shao, couldn't sit still. If he didn't expand again, Yuan Benchu caught up, and Yuan Shu immediately ordered Sun Jian, as the vanguard, to send troops to Xiangyang.
On the Jingnan battlefield, although Liu Biao had the upper hand, he was unable to take Su Dai for a long time. When the news of Sun Jian's troops came out, Liu Biao was shocked and immediately wanted to give up the war to help, but under Kuai Yue's persuasion, he finally strengthened his determination and prepared to pacify Jingnan first, and then return to the division to rescue.
He put his hope on Kuai Liang, Wen Ping and others who stayed in Xiangyang, and he could only put it on them, after all, the Jingnan War lasted for several months, and he was short of the last step, if he withdrew his troops now, he would fall short, and after the Su Dynasty recovered its strength, it would be difficult to recapture it.
In October of the second year of Chuping, Sun Jian arrived in Xiangyang and opened the prelude to the battle for Jingzhou. (To be continued.) )
