Chapter 143, Bloodstained Beibi Mountain (I)

Knock knock, knock knock......

The morning sun is rising, the loud and rhythmic war drums are sounding, and at the foot of the northern mountain, the long-lost war is ignited.

The two sides set up a formation on the plain, looking at each other from a distance, and the neat pace slowly advanced, shaking the sky full of dust.

The total number of troops invested by both sides in this battle is more than 100,000 people, and as far as the eye can see, there is a large area of black oppression, and the power is enough to make any beast in the world fearful.

If you look at it from above, you can get a full view of the battlefield.

The well-defined infantry formation, parades on all sides, and cavalry troops on standby in the rear.

"Report ...... General LΓΌ Bu on the left flank of the front had already begun to engage the enemy. ”

"Report ...... General Zhao Yun on the right flank of the front had already begun to engage the enemy army. ”

In the Central Military Division, the herald sent back the battle report from the front.

Liu Bei's face was calm, and he said indifferently: "Explore again." ”

A person's image is often linked to status, and as his status rises, he becomes more and more kingly.

Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, who held guns and halberds, were undoubtedly more suitable for commanding cavalry, just like spears and dragons, unstoppable.

The outcome of the front army will determine who will have the initiative in the rest of the engagement. Liu Bei put his two sharpest swords in front of him, and his offensive nature was fully displayed.

The proportion of cavalry in the border army is very high, almost half of the total strength, so the periphery is extremely powerful, and the first to engage is also cavalry.

Dong Zhuo obviously also had the intention of seizing the opportunity, and also sent Li Dao, the strongest cavalry commander under his command, and the second general Guo Yan.

However, because of Hua Xiong's previous experience, this time he strictly ordered the two not to fight alone, so although Lu Bu and Zhao Yun had the intention of capturing the flag, they were entangled by the opponent's personal soldiers and could not get close to him.

The two sides then engaged in a fierce fight.

The officers and men of the two armies are all elite border passes known for their toughness, there is no so-called strong and weak distinction, what they fight for is the courage not to be afraid of death, and that trace of luck.

The difference is a millimeter, and the error is a thousand miles.

Life and death are just a few inches.

Whoever has a sword or spear that can land on the enemy faster and more accurately may be able to live.

Of course, the battlefield is always full of surprises.

Someone roared and slashed the enemy in front of him, and then before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he was killed by the enemy who rushed in. Generals will still die in battle, let alone ordinary soldiers who rush to the front line.

Only a general with strong martial arts, excellent armor, and personal guards can have better self-protection.

Both sides are sparing no effort to compete for the first opportunity, and neither is willing to let the other side gain the initiative, so they continue to increase troops to the front. In just two hours, both sides have deployed more than 10,000 cavalry on the left and right flanks.

In the face of the fierce enemy of the Xiliang Army, even if he is as brave as Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, it is difficult to quickly obtain results, and in the situation of having a slight upper hand, he can only advance slowly and cannot directly affect the overall situation.

"Report ...... Enemy cavalry appeared in the middle army. ”

Dong Zhuo took the lead in breaking the deadlock and sent Niu Fu to lead thousands of elite horsemen to kill from the front.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment and looked at Gao Shun on the side.

"Let them see the strength of the trapped camp."

Gao Shun was already ready to go, and when he heard this, he responded decisively: "The last general will obey the order." ”

After saying that, he led 800 traps and 2,000 crossbowmen to snipe.

Seeing this, Liu Ye couldn't help but say, "Can General Gao Shun stop the Xiliang Iron Cavalry?" ”

Fighting the cavalry with infantry was an extremely risky decision, and if the front did not withstand the pressure, it would indirectly affect the left and right flanks.

He had never understood the army trapped in the camp, but he knew one problem very well, the infantry army against the cavalry army required extremely high military quality of the infantry army.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "After this battle, Ziyang will re-understand the trapped camp. ”

He had seen the drills of trapping the camp, and if the Iron Float represented the invasion of the art of war, then the trapping camp was as immobile as a mountain.

Liu Bei looked at Guo Jia, who was speechless, and asked, "What is Feng Xiao thinking?" ”

"I'm waiting."

"Wait?"

"When Dong Zhuo releases all the main cavalry forces, then it will be an opportunity for our army to launch a thunderous attack."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Every army has a main force in the true sense, and as the name suggests, it is the elite that can fight the most.

Judging from the current situation, the Xiliang Army is obviously more active, perhaps because Dong Zhuo has confidence in his Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

And the Xiliang army on the left and right flanks can fight with Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, and it is obvious that Dong Zhuo has already sent the main force.

If Dong Zhuo also sent the main army in the front, then the main cavalry of the Xiliang Army would all come out.

Zhang Fei's Tiefutu has been waiting for work, just waiting for the critical moment to attack.

Liu Bei and Guo Jia are very clear about one problem, after this battle, the existence of Tiefutu is no longer a secret.

Previously, because of the war in the steppe, the princes of all sides could not obtain the most accurate information. Now that he is fighting in the Central Plains, this secret can no longer be hidden.

In that case, let this secret be leaked more valuable.

At the same time, the trapped camp led by Gao Shun had already encountered the cavalry led by Niu Fu.

Facing the menacing Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Gao Shun waved the command flag in his hand expressionlessly, and the trapped camp quickly set up a formation.

And after the Xiliang Iron Cavalry entered the firing range, the archers in the rear instantly fired thousands of arrows, shooting the Xiliang soldiers on their backs.

And Liu Bei's arrangement on the front was also exposed.

Dong Zhuo smiled cruelly: "To dare to use the infantry army against my Xiliang Iron Cavalry is simply self-defeating." ”

Li Ru was also surprised, and the state army was also known for cavalry, and he couldn't understand why Liu Bei chose such a risky formation.

While thinking about it, Dong Zhuo had already begun to give orders.

"Fan Chou, Zhang Ji."

"The end will be."

"The two of you immediately lead the army to aid Niu Fu, as long as you can break the front of the enemy army, and when you enter Luoyang City, I will show the Son of Heaven to give you the title of marquis."

"I will also hand over the Flying Bear Army to you, this battle can only be won, not defeated!"

The two were overjoyed and responded in unison: "Oh! ”

"Lord......" Li Ru felt that it was too risky to press the main force so rashly, and he was about to open his mouth to advise, but was stopped by Dong Zhuo waving his hand.

"I know what you want to say, but the entire battlefield is a plain, and Liu Bei can't find a chance even if he wants to set up an ambush. Even if it was a bait, I would follow the fishing rod to pull Liu Bei into the water. ”

"Don't miss the opportunity, you won't miss it."

Li Ru couldn't help but sigh, although what Dong Zhuo said was reasonable, he was always a little uneasy in his heart.

Is Liu Bei really so easy to beat?

"Please disperse the scouts to avoid being copied by Liu Bei."

Li Ru pondered for a long time, and could only make arrangements to avoid being won by Liu Bei's surprise, that Guo Fengxiao was famous for his love of using strange soldiers.

"Good!"

Dong Zhuo did not refuse, and immediately sent scouts to the rear, expanding the search range by a full twenty miles.

Although the combination of infantry and archers can have a restraining effect on cavalry, once the infantry defense line is broken, the archers are lambs to the slaughter.
