Letting Zhao Yun lead 200 cavalry to frighten the formation was only one of the plans, and the 800 foot soldiers led by Huo Du were Huo Jun's real followers.

If Zhao Yun is unfavorable for two hundred horsemen to break the formation, he will lead the crowd back to the city, and Huo Du's thousands of people will respond; If the formation is broken smoothly and the entire military formation is disrupted, the elite will be killed.

In Huo's creed of being a general, if you don't think about winning, you should think about defeat. Never fix a target or limit what you do.

Can't a thousand people fight against ten thousand?

Of course, nothing is 100% certain in war. The essence of war is that the army fights, and the army is composed of people. The military can magnify people's strengths, but it can also magnify people's weaknesses.

As Huo Jun said, the core essence of offensive and defensive warfare is to rely on the city to start a field battle with the enemy, observe the situation of the enemy's army, and send troops to attack it if you know the slightest flaw.

The Jiangdong Army was initially deployed, and on the whole, it took time to stabilize. For example, Ling Tong and Song Qian went to repair the antlers, and Jiang Qin supervised the left part and was responsible for answering; In order to force land on Peng Ze, Huang Gai led his troops to line up outside the city and intimidate everyone in the city......

Jiangdong's soldiers and horses behaved like this, and in Huo Jun's eyes, they were fleeting fighters.

Today he sent Zhao Yun to break the formation, the purpose was not to let Zhao Yun kill Sun Quan alone, after all, it would be difficult to kill. Instead, he used Zhao Yun to rush into the battle, disturb Sun Quan and his army, and let Huang Gai lead the front to return to the army to rescue.

The front of the Jiangdong Army was facing the city, and Huang Gai had no choice but to save Sun Quan, and led his troops to outflank Zhao Yun. And once this moves, it will be a taboo for soldiers, exposing its fragile flanks in front of Pengze City.

If the two armies were in front, Huang Gai would not dare to act at will. Now it was under siege, and for Huang Gai, there was no enemy in his vision. The enemy was hiding in the city and did not dare to move, so he ordered his subordinates to do so.

However, Huang Gai is also a good fighter, in order to prevent any soldiers in the city from killing, he ordered two divisions of 2,000 people to come back. He led 2,000 men to the town, thinking that even if the enemy killed, he would be able to intercept it in time.

But he didn't think that the enemy had been waiting behind the wall for a long time!

What is a door guard?

At the beginning of his inspection of Peng Ze, Huo Jun pointed out important core points.

Pengze City lacked an urn city, and the enemy army could see the city gate closed and know if the army was dispatched. In order to compensate for the lack of the characteristics of the urn city, so that the enemy did not know that the gate was closed, it was necessary to build a gate wall.

After Qin Song's persuasion to surrender to no avail, he drove away. According to Huo Jun's instructions, Huo Du led 800 elite people from his headquarters, quickly left the city, ambushed behind the gate wall, and obeyed Huo Jun's dispatch on the vast mountain.

Today, the red flag is waving and the drums are loud, which is the sound of their call.

At the moment when the wooden wall topple, smoke and dust billowed up.

"Kill the thief!"

Under the shocked gaze of the Jiangdong soldiers, Huo Du was dressed in leather armor and held a sword and shield, and rushed out in the smoke and dust. Huo Yuan led the troops to take steps and charged closely behind.

Zhang Yi of the phalanx on the flank in the front found the people who were killing from behind the wooden wall, and shouted hoarsely: "The enemy is attacking, line up." ”

Zhang Yi raised troops with Sun Ce, conscripted Liu Xun, and attacked the thieves with Ling Tong. He served as a captain, led thousands of soldiers, and was supervised by Huang Gai. Now he was ordered to move to the left and outflank Zhao Yun's back road, how could he expect Huo Du to rush out from behind the wooden wall.

Less than a mile away, 800 people started to trot. Zhang Yi slapped the soldiers with the spear in his hand, ordered them to turn, and lined up in a gun formation to prevent the enemy. However, from the march to the turn, to the array, where can it be so fast. It wasn't until Huo Du led his troops that he approached a hundred paces that Zhang Yi's troops reluctantly lined up their military formations and used spearmen against the enemy, as for the crossbowmen, where did they have time to mobilize.

Just as they had reached thirty meters, Huo Du and his soldiers marched to take out the short spears they were carrying, leaned forward, and threw hundreds of them.

"Whew!"

With a fierce sound of the wind, the short spear arced across the sky and fiercely threw it at the dense military formation. Such a close distance, such a dense short spear throwing, was enough to make all the Jiangdong soldiers in the front row look horrified.

Under their fearful gaze, the sharp spear tip penetrated their bodies, piercing the chests of soldiers one by one, blood gushing like a spring, and the internal organs were shattered, which was unbearable. In an instant, screams erupted almost simultaneously.

Short spears and javelins were not only found in Rome, but also in the Chinese nation, which is good at war. However, unlike Rome, the soldiers of the Central Plains would configure different weapons according to different situations. Like the wolf, its shape is stagnant and difficult to transfer, and it is suitable for use in narrow terrain or defensive warfare.

The javelin is similar to it as one of the ancient weapons. In southern warfare, javelins were indispensable, and could be used in water warfare or infantry combat; If you switch to the northern battle, fight with the nomads, because the enemy is fast and the javelin is useless, so you give up. Of course, if the horse rider uses the javelin, it is a different matter.

The soldiers trained by Huo Jun naturally need to be proficient in these skills, otherwise how can they fight their way out of the world in this troubled world.

After throwing, Huo Du shouted to pay attention to the shield array queue left and right, and then exerted his strength violently, leading his troops to sprint away. 100 steps away, fast is more than ten seconds, slow is twenty or thirty seconds, thousands of people gallop to kill, the footsteps are like thunder, the sound shocks break the sky.

The foot soldiers who had survived the throwing of the short spears were still glad in their hearts, and they looked at the shield soldiers who were charging towards them, they were already timid in their hearts, but they swallowed their saliva, listened to the scolding of the officers behind them, and barely managed to stand on their legs.

"Kill the thief!"

Before they could adjust, in a few breaths, the shield collided with them. The sword and shield hand held the big shield and pressed it up, directly breaking the front that was hit by the rain of spears, and rushed into the phalanx with overwhelming momentum.

Huo Du entered the formation, faced with the spear stabbed by the foot soldier, the shield in his hand blocked down, pressed the spear shaft, stepped forward, and slashed down, cutting a wound in front of the chest of the Jiangdong soldier that showed white bones, and blood splashed. The Jiangdong soldier was in pain, gave up his spear and staggered back, and was killed by Huo Du with another knife.

Such martial arts attracted the attention of the enemy, and before Huo Du could withdraw the ring head knife, another Jiangdong soldier stabbed Huo Du with a spear in his hand and stabbed him in the chest.

The shield in Huo Du's hand was lifted from the bottom up, and the spear was raised high. Huo Du drew his knife and went straight to rub his body, Jiangdong soldiers abandoned their spears and left, but Huo Du quickly caught up and stabbed him in the back from behind, ending the enemy.

In the military formation, the role of the spear is in a head-to-head confrontation, and its dense spear forest is almost invincible. However, once it is flanked by a melee sword and shield soldier, the spear will not be able to play the advantage of the spear due to its length and the narrowness of the battlefield, and will be broken by the sword and shield man.

Now that the Jiangdong army had turned to march, its flanks were weak, and it was hit by a rain of spears, it was difficult to give full play to the advantage of dense spears, but it was defeated and retreated by the nimble sword and shield men.

As a large number of soldiers entered Zhang Yi's phalanx, they were first broken at one point, and directly broke through the phalanx of the Jiangdong Army. In that fierce hand-to-hand combat, Zhang Yi's department was directly scuttled by the thousands of people led by Huo Du.

The defeated soldiers first retreated within the formation, then retreated with the rest of the people, and then fled. The soldiers in the entire army formation were gradually controlled by the panic, and they could not hear Zhang Yi's orders, and the pace of retreat became faster and faster, and the ranks became more and more loose.

At this time, Zhao Yun, who had escaped at this time, led his cavalry to pull back, ran for several miles, cooperated with Huo Du's department, and rushed into Zhang Yi's department. The loose formation was flanked by the infantry and cavalry, and it instantly turned from chaos to rout.

In the chaotic crowd, Zhao Yun found Huo Du according to the 'Huo' banner and shouted: "The general led his troops to kill, which has caused chaos in the front of the enemy. The current war situation is chaotic, I don't know what to say? ”

Huo Du looked at Zhao Yun, who was covered in blood, with admiration, and said: "I am under Huo Jingbei's order and fully cooperate with the general." Just give the general's orders! ”

"Good!"

Zhao Yun pointed to the military formation holding the 'yellow' flag next door, and said: "Huang Gai is in the 2,000-strong military formation, if the general has spare strength, he can lead his troops into the formation to see if he can break the formation for Yun." If the formation can be broken, Yun led a hundred horsemen to rush into the Huang Gai array, or he could kill the Huang Gai. ”

"How tight is the phalanx?"

"Very strict, my cavalry is hard to break!"

"Can the general make a bow?"

"Bow when you can!"

Huo Du knew in his heart and said: "There are too many troops in the front, although some of them were pinned down by the general before, but they can be reached in a moment, so they can't be in love." Now the enemy is outnumbered, and it is possible to break the formation for the general, but if it is a long battle, our army will be surrounded. Du Ke led his troops into the enemy line and asked the general to shoot Huang Gai with arrows. ”

"Good!" Zhao Yun held the reins and said in a deep voice: "The general can kill eighty steps outside the general's flag." The cloud shoots three arrows, and if it is successful or not, it will go, and now the cloud drives the rout to sweep the battle for the general. ”

"No!"
