Chapter 892
Speaking of which, the relationship between Gongsun Zan and Youzhou Mu Liu Yu was not very harmonious. With Zheng Xiaoming's current status, it shouldn't be too difficult to subdue this person.

Especially after Zheng Xiaoming took over Luoyang, this kind of thing will not be difficult!
At Zheng Xiaoming's stage, it was already difficult to put all his energy on the war.Most of the energy is put on other aspects of things.

Although the outcome of the war is the most important!
As Zheng Xiaoming's four-way army arrived in Luoyang, Luoyang was shocked.

Huge turmoil also occurred in Luoyang City. At this time, Liangzhou soldiers and horses under Dong Zhuo and Bingzhou soldiers and horses all fell into great panic because of military failures, which led to the instability of the military academy.

And because of the successive betrayals of the Luoyang Forbidden Army, they couldn't believe the remaining Luoyang Forbidden Army.Even to the extent that Liangzhou soldiers and horses even Bingzhou soldiers and horses couldn't believe it.

Because of military failures, the authority was shaken.Even among the generals in Liangzhou, there were those who wanted to join Zheng Xiaoming in private.

Anyway, Zheng Xiaoming also fought Qiang Hu in Liangzhou back then.He has a lot of contact with the Liangzhou army, and even has some friendship with some Liangzhou generals.

Of course, the more important war is a war in which the high-ranking officials of the imperial court fight for power and gain the supreme ruling power of the imperial court.

Now it's just Zheng Xiaoming and Dong Zhuo's grievances.Not much to do with these people below them.

It is not necessary to engage in a life-and-death war!

If it had developed like that in the original historical time and space, after several years of chaos, the Liangzhou army attacked everywhere, burned, killed and looted, and finally burned Luoyang.

At that time, it is possible for the two sides to create an endless situation!

But now, the Liangzhou army hasn't committed any serious crimes.

Even if Zheng Xiaoming was in power, he would probably only target Dong Zhuo himself and his hard-core cronies.The other generals are all about wooing!
This is the case for the Liangzhou army, and there must be more Bingzhou army in Luoyang who want to join Zheng Xiaoming!

At this time, no one had the confidence that with a mere Luoyang city that was already indefensible, they could withstand Zheng Xiaoming's [-]-strong army.Including Dong Zhuo himself, there was a great sense of frustration in their hearts.

However, as a hero who has fought from the bottom to his current status step by step, Dong Zhuo is not such a person who is willing to let his hands down.Just because he abolished the emperor, it is impossible for Zheng Xiaoming to spare him!
So Dong Zhuo gathered his army and took the initiative to fight. He fought a field battle with Zheng Xiaoming's Xuzhou army outside Luoyang City.

This time, Dong Zhuo's army from Xiliang was full of elites. The number of elite cavalry alone was as high as more than [-], among them there were many Huren cavalry, and there were also armored cavalry from the Northern Army's cavalry school lieutenant.

It is because he has such a large number of cavalry troops under his command that he has the confidence to fight Zheng Xiaoming in a decisive battle in the wild.

Facing this kind of scene, Zheng Xiaoming really had some headaches.Although he was also working hard to develop cavalry in Xuzhou, he bought a lot of war horses from Youzhou.

But the time was short and the number was small. He had only two or three thousand cavalry under his command.Mostly infantry.

Moreover, among the more than [-] men under his command, most of them are rabble who have not received much training.

In case of being confronted by iron cavalry and directly collapsed, maybe the whole army will be wiped out!

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoming has long been on guard against this move.Xiliang iron cavalry is famous all over the world, how could Zheng Xiaoming not take any precautions?
Carts were quickly pushed out one after another, forming a car formation before the army formation to prevent the cavalry from rushing forward.

When Dong Zhuo's army charged forward, facing the galloping horses, they were shot out with overwhelming bows and crossbows.

In the former Han Dynasty, Li Ling took five thousand Jingchu swordsman wizards out of the fortress, and was surrounded by the Xiongnu, killing and wounding tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry.

It is the method of using carts as camps, allowing pawns to hold halberds and shields in the front row and bows and crossbows in the back row, and achieved an extremely brilliant victory.Although finally defeated and surrendered...

And the core element of this kind of tactics is one word - money!

Among other things, it is just that Li Ling's men shoot [-] crossbow arrows a day... This kind of attack density is completely paid for by money!
In the end, Li Ling was completely surrounded in the valley, and finally failed when he ran out of ammunition and food.

The reason why no one in later generations can reproduce this scene is that very few people can achieve Li Ling's inhumane scene!
The scale of the Han family's arsenal was already extremely large. For example, in the Donghai County arsenal unearthed in later generations, the recorded files show that all weapons can equip an army of [-] people.

For example, the total number of crossbows reached 537707, the total number of spears reached 52555, and the number of spear weapons reached 78392.

However, even so, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary Han troops to be equipped with so many crossbows.It must be the crossbow arrow supplies purchased by the Li family.

Now, Zheng Xiaoming is ready to repeat this scene.Although Xuzhou's soldiers and horses are not too strong, the land of Qingxu is rich.

In addition to Zheng Xiaoming's emphasis on agriculture, he has never let go of business and handicrafts.Therefore, Zheng Xiaoming prepared more weapons than anyone could have imagined.

Facing the impact of the Xiliang iron cavalry at this moment, Zheng Xiaoming could still laugh and said: "The number is much less than I imagined!"

You know, Zheng Xiaoming prepared for the war according to the goal of more than [-] Liangzhou cavalry.

At this moment, there are only more than ten thousand cavalry, so they are not in Zheng Xiaoming's eyes.

Facing the cavalry attack, the first thing is to throw feather arrows falling from the sky... Crossbow arrows can only be shot directly, and only archers can be thrown like this.

The iron feather arrow shot into the air, and then fell with huge kinetic energy, easily piercing the leather armor of the Qianghu soldiers inside the Liangzhou army, or the iron armor of the general Han army.

It has to be said that although the armor rate in the Han Dynasty was extremely high, the protective area of ​​the armor was not very large. It mainly protected important parts such as the chest, back and head, and the defense of other parts was not satisfactory.

Therefore, even if the iron armor can block arrows, the exposed places such as arms, legs, and even the neck and face are easy to be hit by arrows.

Not to mention most of the unprotected horses!

Facing the rain of dense arrows, at least two or three hundred cavalrymen fell in a pool of blood in just one wave.

And this was just the first wave of projectiles, and then they faced the direct fire of the ten stone crossbows.Thousands of heavy crossbow shots can easily penetrate iron armor within [-] meters.

Not to mention that there are five stone crossbows and three stone crossbows behind, and the number is increasing.

Cooperating with the projectile attack of the bow and arrow, the battlefield is almost covered by feather arrows.It almost seemed like a plague of locusts had occurred.
