Chapter Seventy-Nine
Just as Zhou Yunfan was in a hurry, a sergeant hurriedly came over, "General Zhou, His Royal Highness has an order, and he is very busy at this time." There is no time to take care of the general, and the general can set up his own tent. β
"What" Zhou Yunfan really didn't expect that if the three princes didn't come to greet him, he didn't even give him any face, and he lost face in front of the soldiers.
Anger began to fill his chest! "Come on, rush in for me, I want the third prince, give General Ben an explanation!"
"I'll see who dares" The officer at the gate pulled out his waist knife and shouted loudly.
The soldiers in the rear mounted their bows and arrows, and their swords were sheathed and shiny. A palpitating majesty came to the face, far exceeding the coercion brought to Zhou Yunfan by this small group of soldiers before.
Under this coercion, Zhou Yunfan felt as if he was overwhelmed, and even his breathing became short. As a child of a big family, Zhou Yunfan's knowledge is not bad. He also saw that the strength of the squad in front of him was far beyond his imagination.
Looking at the expression of the leading officer, Zhou Yunfan knew that if he really broke through, he would not be able to attack him if the other party really attacked him. The distance between the two sides is so close, if you tear your face, your own safety is not guaranteed at all.
But as the main general, he can't retreat. There was no way to advance or retreat, and in embarrassment, Zhou Yunfan's deputy stood up bravely. "Misunderstandings, all misunderstandings! Everyone is a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and they all put away their weapons and have something to say. β
His lieutenant stood up to relieve himself, and Zhou Yunfan also happened to borrow the slope to get off the donkey. "Hmph, put all your weapons away."
Seeing that the forbidden army put away their weapons, the officer guarding the gate waved his hand, and the sergeants also put away their weapons. looked at the forbidden army coldly, and after that, if they didn't agree with each other, they would draw their swords again.
"Alas" Zhou Yunfan sighed, discovering the strength of these sergeants, he was even more itchy. However, the impulsiveness just now caused him to confront the soldiers guarding the door. If you rush to win over now, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive.
Just as Zhou Yunfan was about to lead his troops to the side to station. Li Xuan, who had been hiding on the side for a long time, also walked out at this time. He obeyed Liu Yu's order, silently observed the forbidden army, and looked for this opportunity to find fault with him. At this time, Zhou Yunfan loaded the muzzle of his own gun, and he would not be polite
"General Zhou, you are the minister, and Your Highness is the king. Not only did you not listen to Your Highness's orders, but you also wanted to ram into His Highness's barracks. General Zhou, what are you guilty of? β
Although I don't know who it is, I looked at the sergeants around me with a respectful look. Zhou Yunfan knew that the person in front of him was either strong or not low.
"My lord, I don't know who Your Excellency is?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is, what is General Zhou's crime? β
Looking at the other party's bearing, and unable to see through the other party's strength, Zhou Yunfan felt a little drumming in his heart. didn't understand the details of the other party, and Zhou Yunfan didn't dare to act rashly. "I don't know sir, what do you want Zhou?" "I will go to His Highness and plead guilty, or I can go around you once."
Zhou Yunfan's face was difficult to look at, and the faces of the henchmen around him were not good-looking. The adjutant general next to him jumped out again, "What are you to dare to speak to our general like this." β
Li Xuan's face changed, Zhou Yunfan's deputy general was just an acquired strength. In Li Xuan's eyes, it was an ant-like figure. was scolded by ants, Li Xuan's mood can be imagined.
"Bang" As soon as everyone's eyes flickered, they saw that the deputy general was knocked out from a distance, fell to the ground, and was slapped into pulp. The power of one palm was so powerful that Zhou Yunfan's pupils shrank, the strength of the other party was far above him, and now he really didn't dare to move.
"Okay, Li Xuan stepped aside. The forbidden army came from afar to support, and there was no merit and hard work, how could you do it without saying a word" A lazy voice came from afar.
"See Your Highness," Li Xuan and all the soldiers immediately knelt down and bowed.
This matter is that even a fool knows who it is, Zhou Yunfan glanced at his subordinates, and also took the lead in kneeling down "See Your Highness"
"All the soldiers have come from afar, they have all worked hard, get up!"
"Your Highness"
Li Xuan took a step forward, "Your Highness, Zhou Yunfan, General Zhou has no Royal Highness, and he actually has soldiers in his hands, trying in vain to ram the camp." β
Zhou Yunfan reacted quickly, Li Xuan said this, and he immediately stood up, "Wronged!" Your Highness"
Liu Yu and Li Xuan looked at each other and smiled at each other, "Okay, what's the matter." General Zhou came from afar, is it wrong for His Royal Highness to come down to greet him, and he has made amends to General Zhou here."
"Your Highness, the last general is terrified!"
In this way, the first day of meeting was under the friendly cooperation of Zhou Yunfan. Liu Yu successfully left a good impression on the forbidden army and laid the foundation for the future annexation of the forbidden army.
Knowing that the 100,000 forbidden army supported Liu Yu, Murong Feng, the commander of the Yan army, was very upset. A Liu Yu plus wolf cavalry wiped out his 100,000 army, plus 100,000 forbidden troops, he had a headache, and immediately he ordered the general Murong Lin to lead 20,000 cavalry, with the 100,000 army near Yuntai County, ready to annihilate Liu Yu's 100,000 forbidden army.
Soon, the general Murong Lin arrived with 20,000 cavalry and gathered 100,000 troops. gave up the attack on the two nearby county towns and concentrated on dealing with the three highnesses of the Ming Dynasty on the opposite side.
Of course, Liu Yu knew about Yan Jun's movements, and he also prepared in advance. Both sides are exercising restraint and need time to trim and coordinate their armies. However, the clouds of war are already coming, and a major war is imminent.
Finally, the Great War came. Liu Yu kept provoking, but people just didn't move. Murong Lin, who has a heavy army, will not make any strange moves, and the third prince of the other party is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if he is not careful, he can be hit. He didn't want his decades of prestige to be ruined.
For Murong Lin, who has a slight advantage in strength, fighting head-to-head in a dignified manner is a good way to be foolproof. Nearly 50,000 cavalry were only held in Murong Lin's hands, and more than 90,000 infantry overwhelmingly pressed the Ming Forbidden Army.
The tragedy is that Liu Yu has no experience in commanding a large army at all, so he can only rely on Zhou Yunfan. Liu Yu, who didn't want to further leak the power of his trump cards, would not touch the wolf cavalry unless he had to.
can only organize infantry to form a formation and confront the Yan army, 10,000 cavalry organized by relying on the war horses captured by Liu Yu, plus 10,000 cavalry of the forbidden army, to stay in the camp and act as a back. The 10,000 cavalry on both flanks, combined with the remaining infantry of the Eighth Forbidden Army, formed a huge formation! Deal with the countless Yan army that oppressed like a dark cloud.
How vast was the infantry array of 80,000 forbidden troops? Archers, crossbowmen, broadswordsmen, halberders, sword and shield soldiers...... And so on, the formation of a military formation requires the cooperation of all arms, rather than a dense column of soldiers standing in the form of piles.
The passage of advance and retreat before and after, the spacing between different arms when cooperating, etc., etc., the vast range and scene, coupled with the faint bursts of murderous aura. It is not what ordinary people in the peaceful years of the 21st century can imagine, but it can deter countless timid people just by looking at it from a distance.
Under the command of the commander of the Chinese army, Liu Yufei, who was dressed in bright silver and bright light armor, looked at the Yanjun and found that they had no intention of attacking on a large scale. Most of his infantry troops, combined with infantry and cavalry, faced with the Yan army, which had 50,000 cavalry in their hands and came and went, they could only hold the weight calmly. Waiting for the enemy to come to the door is the right way.
The formation was based on the battalion, and with the guarantee of the 20,000 cavalry of the battalion, he did not have to worry about the rear road being copied. All Liu Yu had to deal with now was the threat posed by the Yan cavalry from the front and both flanks.
Under a black handsome flag, Murong Lin was also looking at his opponent calmly. He and Liu Yu didn't know each other, but he couldn't help but applaud Liu Yu's record of 7,000 wins and 100,000 wins, although it was his teammates who were eliminated.
Quietly observed for a while, "It's really tight, and it doesn't miss a flawβ"
Liu Yu's large array is very ordinary, with the infantry in the center and the cavalry on both wings, which is simple. However, it is this ordinary, general, and simple formation that is the most troublesome. Because they seem inconspicuous, they have withstood the constant test of time and war to survive to this day.
In a word, the simpler the better.
Murong Lin knew that his opponent was waiting for him to attack, but he could only attack first! He couldn't afford to wait, and he didn't dare to wait. Because the camp of the Ming army is near Yuntai County, and there are nearly 40,000 county soldiers in the two nearby counties, if he comes out to disturb, he can't afford to lose.
Murong Lin did not seek to defeat Liu Yu, but he had to consume or fight the opponent's military strength. The contrast between the strength of the two armies of Yan and Ming has changed, this is in the land of the Ming Dynasty, and only superior forces can deter ordinary people.
The low drum sounded, and in the dusty Yan army cavalry camp, a large number of horses' hooves suddenly sounded. The three Yan cavalry attacked from the front, left and right.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The Ming army first sounded the sound of thunderous drums, and then the horn of 'woo', Liu Yu's attention immediately focused, and then he saw the command flag in front of the headquarters shaking violently.
The black flag was waving in the wind, retreating, but judging by its direction, it was about to retreat into the infantry formation. "Boom Boom ......" is the sound of the iron armor vibrating.
