Liu Wudang rode a war horse and galloped along the Wei River, and along the way, they fought with two Tibetan armies, and the emperor broke the formation first, which was really invincible and indomitable.

After these two conflicts, the specific situation of the Tibetan invasion is almost clear.

There are more than 30,000 invading troops in total, most of them are Shang Dongzan's subordinates, and there are also famous generals Shang Wanwen and Shang Monk Fearing Heat to join in the hand, and Tubo Zan Pulang Dama also arrived in person.

Although the enemy was elite and numerous, Liu Wudang had nothing to fear, because Liu Wudang felt that after being tempered by the emperor's conquest, his understanding of the art of war had risen to a new level.

An ordinary person like himself only needs to follow behind the peerless master and clean up the battlefield by the way.

"Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass. ”

Li Xu rode on a horse, and the more than 300 knights led by himself got closer and closer to martial arts.

As far as the eye can see, in addition to the scars left by the invasion of the Tibetans, there are also the great mountains and rivers in front of you. The Wei River alluvial has produced the fertile 800-mile Qinchuan River, which is the fertile soil for the birth of China, but the fate is somewhat unlucky.

Since the end of the Western Han Dynasty, it has suffered from foreign invasions, from the Qiang Rebellion of the Two Han Dynasty to the final appearance of the former Qin and later Qin. In the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, there was still a situation of chaos in the mountains.

It was not until the establishment of the Yu Dynasty that it was considered to have improved, and now it has become a passage for the invasion of the Tubo people, which is really only a sigh to hide your face.

"Your Majesty, there is a squad of thieves not far ahead. A scout came back from the front.

In fact, with the emperor's "fluctuating free method", it was already discovered that there were about 100 Tibetan warriors escorting more than 1,000 people in front of him.

It's just that if they do everything themselves, then what do you want Liu Wudang to do with them, armed tourism at public expense?

"You go and get rid of them," Li Xu said. "I'll give you a sweep. ”

Since the emperor spoke, Liu Wudang and they were also happy to behave in front of the emperor.

The knights of the Shence Army divided into two teams, each with one hundred and fifty cavalry, and then marched along the road.

Liu Wudang carried the banner and the remaining thirty or so riders with the extra horses, and slowly followed the emperor.

The cavalry of the Yu Dynasty had quite a variety of tactics. Before the Yu Dynasty, it was a troubled era in which the north and the south were divided and conquered each other for a hundred years, and the art of war developed rapidly during this century. The cavalry of the Yu Dynasty itself inherited the tactical advantages of both the north and the south.

The tactic of dividing the elite cavalry into two teams, surrounding the opponent from the left and right flanks, and then shooting with bows and arrows, is the tactic of the Southern Dynasty when attacking the barbarians in the north, using armored cavalry to shoot from the left and right sides.

Although the Yu army no longer used armored cavalry equipment like the previous army, and instead used unarmored war horses, this tactic was the best choice for harassing the enemy.

The cavalry of the Yu army suddenly rushed out from the left and right flanks, and beat the Tubo army unprepared, the Tubo army numbered only more than 100 people, and was completely at a disadvantage, so it could only form a circle formation, and then put the captured prisoners on the outermost part as a meat shield.

The people saw the banner of the Shence Army, where did they care about the more than 100 Tubo warriors, although they were strung together by hemp rope, but they couldn't be stopped by the more than 100 Tubo warriors who had to take care of defending against cavalry raids.

The common people ran around, and some fierce Tubo people took out their knives and took out their bows to kill them directly, but they were still stopped by the leading officers and told them to stick to the line and not move rashly.

More than 300 Yu troops galloped left and right, surrounded the Tubo people in the center, and then took out their riding bows and threw arrows at them. The arrows of the Shence Army have a cone-shaped cluster of arrows, and this kind of arrow mainly pursues the killing of armor-piercing.

At this time, the formation of the Yu army changed again, and it was changed to a team of about 30 people, which was actually the basic establishment of the Yu army. The lowest level of the commander of the Yu army was originally called "Shi General", and the number of commanders under the command of each Shi General was also different depending on the type of troops.

A cavalry general commanded thirty cavalry men, which was the smallest cavalry unit in the battle command. The knights of the Shence Army, which were divided into six teams, surrounded Tubo Ren in the center in six directions under the leadership of the generals, and greeted them with arrows.

Li Xu shook his head when he saw this.

The Tibetans formed a tight circle formation, and the cavalry dismounted and fought on foot, surrounding a few horses inside, and the outermost was a heavy infantry with large shields and spears and short spears.

As for the assault, there is no good way to face such a turtle formation.

"Liu Wudang, such a turtle formation, do you think there is any way to break him?" Li Xu decided to take the test for the flag officer beside him.

"Of course, please ask Your Majesty to do it himself. Liu Wudang replied naturally: "As long as Your Majesty makes a move, these people will definitely be defeated." ”

This answer obviously did not satisfy Li Xu.

Liu Wudang also saw the emperor's dissatisfaction, and replied according to the conventional thinking: "Other methods, probably the cavalry dismounts and fights on foot, we have more people and better equipment, and we fight three to one, and some have a dozen." The other is to withdraw first and wait, they can't hold back and start to retreat, and then beat them off guard. ”

Li Xu nodded, this answer can be considered satisfactory.

Then the emperor gave an order.

"Mingjin told them all to withdraw," Li Xu said, "and a large group of people are coming." ”

Li Xu's fluctuation sensing method gave him a far advantage over traditional generals in battlefield command.

Traditional commanders can only rely on their own eyes to judge the situation on the field, except for the information reported by the people below. The range he could observe was only a small part of what he could see.

And the information that has been collected still has a lot of miscalculations.

But for Li Xu, the fluctuation sensing method can sense the situation on the battlefield like radar, and everything is under the control of the emperor.

Everything on the battlefield is as clear as a full-battle game, and with the help of the fluctuation method, the emperor can judge the enemy's morale, numbers, and direction of travel.

For example, now, Li Xu could feel that a team of about 5,000 people was rushing in the direction of Wugong County to meet this Tubo people.

After receiving the emperor's order, Liu Wudang immediately ordered the knights around him to take down the horn, blow out a whimpering and sad horn sound, and summon the comrades in front of him back.

Not far away, Li Xu could see that a hideous wolf-headed banner had risen from the horizon. It was the banner of Shang Dongzan, the great minister of Tibet, and after receiving the prompt of the good and fearless, the great minister of Tubo immediately gathered an elite army and marched eastward.

Shang Dongzan's will is very resolute, and he is ready to completely wipe out this cavalry that has ventured into the Yu Dynasty, and by the way, the so-called peerless master.

The noisy sound of smoke and dust rolled up by the march of more than 5,000 people made a trace of cold sweat break out on the Shence army behind the emperor.

"I look at the beauty and ugliness, such as inserting a label to sell the first ear. ”

Liu Wudang listened to the emperor muttering a sentence that made his waist cold, and then he heard the emperor's order.

"Wedge, follow me. ”

The Emperor raised his double-headed lance and made a circle in the air firmly, signaling the surrounding knights to form a diamond-shaped wedge-shaped array, with the Emperor riding his horse in front of the line acting as the front arrow, while the others followed the Emperor to the left and right and behind.

Li Xu held a double-headed cavalry gun in one hand, controlled his speed, and led a large group of men and horses to rush towards Shang Dongzan, who was still marching in the distance.
