The three thousand men waited for the day, their spirits were highly concentrated, and they looked at the gradually thickening line of troops ahead.

Soon, Gao Shun led the thousand cavalry to kill again, looking at the formation of Liu Xun's army, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when his face was paralyzed, "Liu Xun doesn't know about soldiers?" ”

Liu Xun's lineup seemed to be very rigorous, they put the shield at the front, and put the spear into the groove in the middle of the shield, forming an offensive and defensive appearance.

With this formation, even the most elite Bingzhou wolf riders can't break through.

The problem is that he doesn't understand cavalry.

The advantage of cavalry is that it is as fast as the wind, gathering and scattering, using the speed advantage to break the formation, kill the lone or fleeing sergeants, and at the same time can quickly leave the battlefield after completing this series of operations.

This is also why the price of cavalry is so high, but the princes of all walks of life have to build it at any cost.

Last time, if Gao Shun hadn't seen the flaws in his formation, he wouldn't have made such a reckless move.

In fact, if you encounter heavy infantry all the time, such a charge of cavalry is not much different from sending you to death.

"Is it the same way you played last time?" Xu Sheng leaned over and asked excitedly.

"Of course not."

Gao Shun shook his head, glanced at the battlefield, and quickly made up his mind, "Later, you and I will each take a team of cavalry, use the method of luring the formation, and then go around the flank." ”

"Oh..."Xu Sheng scratched his helmet.

After discovering that he was dazed, Gao Shun remembered that this was a newcomer, so he turned to Qu Chang behind him and said, "You lead this Qu Xing to lure the formation, and then go around the left flank." ”

"Whoa!" Qu Chang hugged his fists.

"You... Just follow me, and remember to keep up with the speed of the army. Gao Shun looked at Xu Sheng's instructions, and the latter nodded hurriedly, fearing that he would become a burden.

The method of decoy formation, around the flanks... Xu Sheng wrote down these professional-looking phrases in his heart.

Subsequently, the thousand cavalry approached in two directions, and when the distance was about the same, they did not see the opponent release their arrows, so they converged towards the middle.

The anticipatory snakeskin movement caused the first round of arrows to be released directly by the crossbowmen, and the cavalry that had gathered together again rushed forward as they had done the first.

The difference is that this time it seems to be a little slower.

Come on, come on, this time you will hate it! Looking at the approaching cavalry, Liu Xun was inexplicably excited.

Seeing that he was only thirty paces away, he waved his right arm and shouted, "Change formation!" ”

The armor soldiers on either side raised their shields and began to advance, like a fan intending to close the circle.

Liu Xun's idea was that when Gao Shun opened the gap, the cavalry would concentrate and pour in again, and the spearmen in the rear would immediately block it, and the shield soldiers would block their retreat, as long as the cavalry had no speed, it would be a fish in the net.

Ideas are good, but they often backfire.

When there were twenty paces left, the cavalry, which was advancing like a long snake, suddenly split in two, one team turned its horses and rushed to the left, and the other to the right.

"Keep up!" Gao Shun hissed, and Xu Sheng, who ran over, was less than two feet away from the shield soldier before he barely turned away and chased after him.

The shield soldier just watched the cavalry pass by, as if it was very close, but it was out of reach.

By the time they reached the edge, the pikemen and crossbowmen behind them were completely exposed.

At this time, the advantage of cavalry speed came into play, they could arbitrarily slash along the edge, although the speed did not explode to the extreme, but it was not the reaction of the shield soldiers that could keep up.

Xu Sheng realized for the first time that it turned out that it could still be fought like this, and the cavalry was really useful.

Immediately, he galloped along the side road, sometimes striking the spear with a chain of knives, sometimes coming out of his hand, and after taking the enemy's head, he pulled it back, and killed it very unpleasantly.

Seeing the two teams of cavalry scraping like a razor, harvesting the pikemen and crossbowmen, Liu Xun's face turned pale with fright, and he wanted to do something, but he didn't know how to deal with it, so he watched them rush through the phalanx after killing a round.

What's even worse is that their own formation is once again in chaos, and if they turn around and fight back at this time, they will inevitably be defeated.

Fortunately, Wanshui saved them again.

After rushing through the phalanx, because the distance was too close, there were still many cavalry rushing into the water like last time.

However, because the upstream flow was cut off, even if it rushed down, it would not be a big problem.

Moreover, the war horses are equipped with horseshoes, so you will not lose their hooves when stepping on these pebbles.

But after Gao Shun adjusted the team, the chaotic sergeants on the opposite side were also stabilized.

Coupled with the fact that the distance was so close, the cavalry couldn't get up, and he was worried that the opposite side would be on guard after suffering a loss, Gao Shun could only reluctantly give up the idea of continuing to charge and kill, and withdrew again.

After seeing the Bingzhou cavalry leave, Liu Xuncai hurriedly ran back to Dazhai with people.

After counting, the damage was not too large, and more than 100 people were killed, less than the last time.

But the harvest was pitiful, only thirteen war horses were stabbed.

"I have long heard that the cavalry under Lu Bu is good at fighting, and now I see that it is true." He began to regret that he didn't listen to Liu Ye's words and ran out to fight Lu Bu, and he no longer had the idea of 'I'm different from them'.

You know, Lu Bu hasn't appeared yet, God knows how powerful the kind of guy who makes the princes of the world frightened.

At the same time, he was glad that he had chosen a good position to deal with Lu Bu's army, as long as the river was here, it would be difficult for Lu Bu's cavalry to make great achievements.

But today was an eye-opener, and he hurriedly walked to the sand table to conduct a simulation exercise, thinking about how to crack it next time he encountered such a play.

"The cavalry style of play is changeable, Lu Bu has been leading the cavalry since the annexation of the state, and the prince of the palace cannot be more proficient than him no matter how much he studies." Liu Ye's meaning is obvious, you can study this kind of fighting, but do you know how many other cavalry fighting styles Lu Bu has?

If you can't figure it out, people can use different tactics every time.

"If only I had a cavalry."

Liu Xun suddenly envied the border refugees he looked down on, "What should I do now?" ”

"You can't retreat, you can't fight..."

Liu Ye raised his head and sighed, and after a long while, he said in a muffled voice: "For today's plan, the only way to do this is to hold on, and at the same time strengthen the camp to prevent cavalry from attacking at night." ”

"It's good, but you can't always consume it like this, right?" Liu Xun said wistfully.

"Lu Bu came from afar, and it is inconvenient to transfer grain and grass, so the prince can send an envoy to Chaohu to find Zheng Bao to bribe him with a lot of money, so that he can plunder Lu Bu's grain and grass."

Liu Ye squinted his eyes and muttered: "As long as the grain and grass are cut off, Lu Bu's army will be chaotic." ”

Liu Xun's eyes lit up, and he immediately clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, wonderful!" ”

He couldn't take care of Zheng Bao, who was in Chaohu, and he was also the mountain bandit he despised the most, so he immediately wrote a letter and left a big seal and let people take it back to Anhui County quickly.

At the same time, according to Liu Ye's plan, he sent people to cut down a large amount of timber around to increase the defense of the camp.

The camp with a capacity of 20,000 people is huge, and it is obviously unrealistic to wrap it all, but the smaller the gap, the more concentrated the defensive forces, and the less likely it is to be attacked.

In the next few days, Gao Shun, Zang Ba, Wei Yue and others repeatedly led people to challenge, but Liu Xun just didn't come out, and he didn't care about what would happen to the army, thinking that as long as it dragged on, Lu Bu would be defeated, and he would have the last laugh.

"The eight lambs just don't come out, so what can they do!" Wei Yue angrily scolded Liu Xun.

"Why don't you try a night raid?" Zang Ba proposed.

In the tent, Lu Bu leaned back on the handsome chair and looked at the dome, and shook his head, "You can't move lightly." ”

Attacking the enemy camp at night is a task that only cavalry can complete, and it is very risky to not know what the situation is, the deployment of soldiers and horses, and the geometry of patrols.

The stories of Gan Xingba's hundred horsemen robbing the Wei camp and his achievements are of course legendary and worthy of praise, but no one knows that they already have the extreme idea of going and never returning before they set off.

Don't look at Lu Bu's strength from all over the country has exceeded 50,000 together, but the cavalry is only a few thousand, it is not a last resort, he doesn't want to take such a dangerous move.

"What do you think of Yunwen?" Lu Bu looked at Lin Mo in the tent.

"Don't be in a hurry to go off the rails, Liu Xun will avoid fighting, then we will wait." Lin Mo said calmly.

"What are you waiting for?"

The weather has become more and more dull in the past few days, which makes people become more impatient, Wei Yue is a little impatient and said: "I can't wait for Liu Xun to surrender by himself." ”

I've given you face, right, my son-in-law hasn't finished his sentence and is in a hurry.

In fact, because of the choice of this route, the battle did not go well, and it was not only Gao Shun and Wei Yue who had a lot of complaints about Lin Mo. Even Zang Ba, who came over later, privately told Sun Guan that this Lin Mo seemed to be more famous than capable.

Lu Bu thought that he was all here today, so he could knock you all together.

Before he could speak, there was a thunderous sound outside the tent, boom~

Lin Mogujing's eyes suddenly lit up, and when it was finally there, he turned his head to look outside the tent, breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "It's finally here, Liu Xun is powerless to return to the sky." ”
