Chapter 265: This Moon Array, Isn't It Done?
Lu Feng's father didn't know about the old things of King Song, after all, Liu Yu's name is still quite big, the first virtuous king in the Han Dynasty for thousands of years, and the dream of every child of the Han clan.
It is precisely because of this that most of the people who have read some books have heard of the Moon Array.
Our Lu Fuzi is a lover of reading, so he naturally understands this.
However, the Moon Array is indeed a method of warfare that uses foot pawns to balance the cavalry.
But it's actually a kind of battle formation that focuses on defensiveness, with little to no active attack performance.
Not only that, but it's also quite difficult to set up.
Not only do generals need to have superb ability to deploy troops, but also elite soldiers who are shrewd, good at fighting, and good at shooting.
The requirements for the blade and the quality of the soldiers are very demanding.
He also paid great attention to the cooperation of chariots, crossbowmen, melee soldiers, and sailors, and relied on orderly counterattacks and blockades to achieve the attack on the cavalry.
In general, the Moon Array is a multi-arm coordinated tactic.
Rely on the close cooperation between multiple arms, especially combat vehicles, and infantry to carry out coordinated operations, so as to play the greatest role.
It can be regarded as the ancient version of the Butan synergy.
All in all, the difficulty was very high, and even Yue Shaoqian was not sure that he could reproduce it, so he would create a hook and sickle spear back then, which was used to ride with footsteps, instead of the Moon Formation.
It is precisely because of understanding that Lu Fengfu is even more confused.
If the emperor said that he understood the moon array, Lu Fengfu would naturally not be suspicious.
It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice!
Chariot?
No.
There were a few donkey carts, but there were too few of them.
Even if everyone had the emperor's driving skills, it would be difficult to form a system.
The chariot of the moon array can block the movement of the low wall!
Even this chariot is the key to the Moon Formation!
The crossbow?
At present, the archery skills of these soldiers cannot be counted on at all.
What about the sailors?
Belch. You're talking about the bathtub?
Lu Fengfu didn't think much about it, and admonished:
"The minister feels that Your Majesty can directly cross the water in the bathtub, and there is no need to dry up with the Donghu people on the shore."
He had seen a bathtub cross the river, and according to his inherent impression of the bathtub, he first used the 2,000 men in front of him to block the cavalry of the Donghu people and delay time.
The 1,000 soldiers in the back connect the bathtub and float on the water, so that they can easily cross the water as when the bathtub crossed the river before.
Although they would lose 2,000 soldiers, they were able to successfully cross the water.
As long as the emperor and the main forces of the army converge, everything is not a problem.
And it's not without its gains.
At least all the soldiers and horses of Pu Qiancheng's department were wiped out, although they didn't have time to count the results, but at least there were more than 10,000 people, 2,000 for more than 10,000, which was a big victory.
As for facing the rushing Donghu cavalry, he finally chose to run away, which is also a decision that normal people would make.
The 3,000 foot soldiers who are sleepy and lack donkeys, in the face of nearly 10,000 cavalry soldiers who are recuperating and prepared, it is normal to drive directly.
But Liu Ke was obviously a very assertive emperor.
Especially after having the boundless confidence of relatives and friends to sacrifice to the sky, you have to be more arrogant in order to be worthy of the love of your ancestors and ancestors.
"Lu Qing, you fought very bravely in this battle, and when this battle is over, I will promote you to the rank of you."
Before he finished speaking, there was a drum beat in front of him.
Among the hills on the west side, dense cavalry figures poured out.
Especially on the top of the slope on the west side, the drum is bursting, accompanied by the strange cry of the Donghu people, and the horse's hooves are flying.
Pu Qiancheng and tens of thousands of Donghu soldiers did not hesitate to kill them, and the impact was almost suicidal, which really consumed the physical strength of the Han army.
Moreover, the speed of the Donghu cavalry is really amazing, so that although Liu Ke dispatched the troops and horses at the first time, he did not have time to fully form a formation at this time.
There is not much left of the chessboard in Liu Ke's hand.
In the roar of dense hooves, hundreds of cavalry galloped down the slope.
The soldiers of the Han army who had just fallen into the position at the front were suddenly in chaos and were a little at a loss.
Some people continue to advance, some people stop to defend in place, and more people are losing ground.
Including the lower-level generals, for a while, they fell into chaos.
Seeing this, Liu Ke couldn't help frowning slightly.
Looking at the movement, there were a lot of cavalry, and this Pu Qiancheng was really ruthless, and directly exchanged his life for the fighter.
I have to say that if he hadn't hung too much on him, this wave might have really run away.
"Father Lu Feng, you take your own soldiers to supervise the formation, and those who flee will be killed immediately!"
"Huh?"
Lu Feng's father sighed again, and his brain was also a little confused, he is a civil official, where did he come from? ?
He glanced up and saw that the Donghu cavalry rushing down the slope was far faster than the infantry.
There is a kind of momentum that crushes everything.
The 2,000 soldiers who were dispatched to the front to resist were somewhat overwhelmed and difficult to resist.
Seeing this, Lu Feng's father had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Although he is a civil official, the civil officials of the Han Dynasty have never lacked the bloody nature to stand under the front of the soldiers.
The cavalry of the Donghu people had reached the flat ground at this time, and they were coming straight towards the garrison Han army, and the Han army was shouting in panic.
The first to form a formation, only a few hundred.
The hundreds of people raised their spears diagonally, because they had not rested to drink, their throats were hoarse, and the voices they shouted out were not imposing.
Fortunately, the formation is relatively complete.
And those soldiers who did not form a formation and just hurried to the front were not in such a good situation.
In the movement, it was directly attacked by the Donghu cavalry and was in chaos.
"Did you charge straight into battle?"
Lu Feng's father was a little nervous, according to the normal situation, if the foot soldiers did not form a formation, they would basically collapse as soon as they were knocked away by the cavalry.
Under the uneasy gaze of Lu Fengfu, there were many Han army soldiers, because in a hurry, the pace was not uniform, and they were crowded together.
Many fell to the ground before they could even raise their blades.
And among the Donghu people, there are already many cavalry, looking at him.
Just when Lu Feng's father thought that this cavalry was going to kill his side.
One of the Donghu knights in front, for some reason, actually reined in his horse, made a forced turn, slowed down at the same time, bypassed this side, and continued to kill those Han soldiers who had not gained a firm foothold.
The soldiers of the Han army, who were not in formation, fell one after another, and the shouts were mixed together.
The soldiers who filled in the follow-up also seemed to be somewhat affected, and it seemed that they could collapse at any time.
The cavalry did not rush towards him, and before Lu Feng's father could rejoice, he found that the situation was still not good.
It can't even be said that it is not good.
I can't find a chance to win!
If it goes on like this, it will only be disrupted by the cavalry's continuous charge.
It is good to be able to form a formation, it can be supported for a while, and it is directly cool if it is not a formation.
And there are only 3,000 of them, and they are all tired soldiers under the long battle, even if they can hold out, how long can they hold out??
If the front collapses, the soldiers who are still connecting to the bathtub in the back will not have the strength to fight.
Then you can only run.
If you run on land, you will definitely not be able to run on four legs, so you can only try to cross the water in the bathtub.
I have to say that the Donghu people fought this battle really hard, completely regardless of casualties, and they also had to bite the Han army.
At this time, Lu Fengfu saw a few Han army soldiers and seemed to want to retreat.
At that moment he stamped his foot vigorously and hissed:
"What are you doing standing! Hold on! ”
Lu Fengfu's way of acting is also very civilian, relatively gentle, and he has no blades in his hands.
But it doesn't matter what the tone is, how it is done.
Those soldiers of the Han army who were a little withdrawn, seeing that it was Lu Fengfu who was supervising the army behind, turned their heads one by one, and without hesitation, they went straight forward.
Don't look at this guy doesn't have a knife in his hand, and he doesn't have other overseers around him.
is also tall and physical, and it looks more bluffing.
But this is Master Lu, who can take the head of the general in the army, Master Lu, Master Lu!
Compared with being opened with a punch and the watermelon juice bursting out of the flower head, it is still sharper to be cut by the Donghu people.
"It's worthy of being my Han family's son!"
Lu Fengfu himself didn't feel anything, just sighed.
He is just a civil official, and he is just a rough fist and kick, and he basically has no prestige among the soldiers.
But the soldiers still chose to step forward!
This is the bloody nature of the Han family!
Even in this situation of near-defeat, they are even cowardly and want to retreat.
But when you hear someone encouraging you behind you, you will definitely throw away your life and rush to the front!
In the chaos, the 2,000 Han soldiers who were deployed on both sides finally barely took shape.
Lu Fengfu strode to the front row and turned to face all the soldiers, so that everyone could see him.
He needs to stabilize the morale of the army, if the cavalry of the Donghu people rushes over at this time, he will definitely be the first to finish.
But if he hides behind, just an ordinary prison army, and the army collapses, he may not be able to escape in the end, it is better to stand at the front.
"Kill!"
Lu Zhubo in this state actually has no actual combat effect.
But he couldn't stop the brilliant battle that seemed to be descending from the heavenly demons.
This group of Han army soldiers, seeing Lu Feng's father, inexplicably calmed their minds, and the final riot quickly stabilized, and roared together.
"Kill, kill!!"
The soldiers of the Han army are holding on for the time being.
At this time, another drum sounded, and the Donghu cavalry roared again and rushed from the front.
The dense hoofs roared, Lu Fengfu's heart jumped, and the figure of the group of cavalry gradually became larger.
Then the cavalry went around his side.
Pu Qianrong, who led the army, didn't want to, but he really couldn't help it.
The current situation, at first glance, they have the upper hand.
In fact, there are still certain dangers.
For example, he, the main general, was suddenly taken by the head of the army.
Based on past experience, such a probability is very small.
But now in the Han army array, there are two people who have the ability to take the head of the general among the ten thousand troops, and then Shi Shiran retreats with his whole body!
One Liu Pheasant, one Lu Feng's father.
Pu Qianrong is not good at force, although he dares to lead the army to rush at the front, but he also has a choice, and he will definitely not rush towards the place where there is Lu Fengfu and Liu Pheasant!
Lu Feng's father is standing at the forefront, even if he has no blade, it is a great threat for people to be unsure of what they want to do.
So Pu Qianrong directly led the army and went around.
As for Lu Fengfu.
He chose to bend his bow and arrows, and let the soldiers shoot a wave.
Anyway, this Lu Fengfu has always been proud, and he never wears armor in the battle array, as long as he is hit by an arrow, he will definitely be hit hard.
Whoosh –
A series of sounds that broke the sky.
Light arrows flew past Lu Feng's father's side like a bead.
Didn't hit.
Pu Qianrong panicked, and those Donghu soldiers were also cowardly!
Many people were nervous, and they almost couldn't let go of the bowstring, although they shot a wave of arrows, but most of the arrows were planted crookedly in front of Lu Feng's father, and the strength was not enough at all.
Lu Fengfu:
The archery skills of the Donghu people don't seem to be as good as they imagined?
He stood in front of the line, motionless.
Arrows kept falling from mid-air, popping in the dirt in front of him, and some of the weak arrows lost their direction and fell softly.
It is also a powerful and very accurate arrow, but Lu Fengfu just shook his shoulder, stretched out his hand, and grabbed it with his bare hands.
Catching sharp arrows with bare hands inevitably makes people a little nervous, Lu Fengfu actually has no bottom in his heart, although he also knows a little about archery, but what he is better at is still literary after all.
This weird scene is not mentioned for the time being, and other Donghu soldiers who don't need to face Lu Feng's father play very well.
Although there were some casualties, dozens of horse corpses had been left behind in front of the Han army.
But it also succeeded in destroying the formation little by little.
The Han army was getting more and more at a disadvantage, and because the number of soldiers and horses was too small, after the casualties increased, there was a vacancy, and there were no soldiers in the rear to fill it.
Just as he was worried, Lu Fengfu glanced back and saw that there were many wooden barrel bathtubs, which had been strung together.
Father Lu Feng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Retreat, slash!"
Lu Feng's father did not have the consciousness of being a general, and he never issued a single general order, but he only acted as a supervisor of the army, and did not let a single soldier retreat.
Occasionally, if you are free, you will do some work that the main book should do, and roughly calculate, the current soldiers and horses are damaged.
But that's all, and that's enough.
The current situation, and the generals of Yue Shaoqian and Han Qi's level came, it was possible to reverse the tide of the battle by simply transferring troops and dispatching generals.
If the ability is poor to dispatch soldiers and horses, it is better to use stupid methods to defend it!
Many Han soldiers looked at Lu Fengfu, and their eyes were full of admiration.
Lu Zhubo is not only a unique martial artist in the world, but also has a hand in leading the troops to resist the enemy, and has fought until now, only 2,000 extremely tired foot soldiers can be tenaciously supported under the hands of nearly 10,000 cavalry!
However, Liu Ke in the rear has already seen the decline of the front army.
At most, it will be the time to hold another stick of incense.
Once it is torn open by the Donghu people, the Han army will usher in a big defeat, and the speed will inevitably be extremely fast, and it can be collapsed almost instantly.
Fortunately, he also understood the situation.
There are only more than 10,000 cavalry.
Back then, when he fought begging and fighting, he ran away with 10,000 cavalry with 800 people, and now he has 3,000 people in his hands, even if they are all tired soldiers, there is no reason to lose!
"Beat the drums!"
Liu Ke shouted loudly and ordered:
"Order the soldiers in the rear, divided into two teams, each with five hundred men."
Seeing that the wooden barrel bathtub here was all connected, Lu Fengfu came back from the front and urged:
"Your Majesty, shall we start crossing the water now?"
Liu Ke just smiled, pointed to the horse soldiers in front of him, and said:
"The Donghu people are menacing, and our army has been able to maintain until now because it can still form a formation, if we retreat, this formation will be chaotic."
"Besides, if I withdraw, how can I be worthy of the soldiers who died in battle?"
Lu Feng's father looked embarrassed, he doesn't cross the water now, and he will cross the water until the last moment?
Although it is true that this can fight against the odds and boost morale, it is somewhat unwise, isn't it completely exposing yourself to danger?
However, he felt that he was a master, and he had some thoughts in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it, so he could only follow the emperor's will and say:
"Yes, then let's guard it, as long as the left and right block the Donghu people, it's fine."
Liu Ke shook his head and said:
"Not necessarily."
"The Donghu people dare to fight, fight to the death in exchange for fighters, my Han family's son, are they cowardly!"
"This is a moon array, isn't it done?"
