Invincible son

Chapter 1254 1255 [Invincible]

The three fireworks that bloomed above Liang Jun's main formation attracted the attention of the kings and ministers of Western Wu, but at the current pass where they were attacked from both sides, they naturally thought that it was Gu Liang's attack signal to the Hucheng defenders and Tibetan front guards.

Just as they expected, the Liang army in the northwest had already begun to march forward.

"Gu Aiqing, I will give you [-] infantry, [-] light cavalry, and [-] Anyang dragon cavalry. It would be best if you can defeat the Liang army. If the opponent's strength is too strong, you only need to block their advance. This support soldier is Gu Liang's last hole card, and his main force is only the Jinshui Army, which can be regarded as elite. After Zhou Dewei wins the frontal battle, Liang Guo's reinforcements will not be a worry."

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the general who was kneeling on one knee in front of him, and exhorted him solemnly.

This person is Gu Qiudao, the chief general of the Anyang Dragon Riders, who is also the general of the rear army. Along with Lu Dingguo, he is the most trusted and valued martial artist by Emperor Xuanwu besides the generals of the Sifang.

Now that Lu Dingguo died in the hands of Liang Guozang's front guard cavalry, even Emperor Xuanwu could hardly hide the grief in his eyes, but Gu Qiudao's face was calm and his eyes were calm, and he said forcefully: "Your Majesty, I will live up to my trust!"

Emperor Xuanwu said with relief: "Okay, go and command the battle quickly."

Gu Qiudao saluted and retired, then got on his horse, followed by a group of heralds.When he came to the front of the rear army's position, a series of military orders had been issued, and the Wu army's formation began to change.

Heavy cavalry are not as ordinary people imagined, they can defeat the enemy with a random charge.In fact, in the face of well-trained and experienced infantry, heavy cavalry will never simply fight alone, but require the cooperation of a large number of infantry and light cavalry.Western Wu is famous for its elite cavalry, and of course there has been very in-depth research and practice on this.

Under Gu Qiudao's adjustment and command, Wu Jun quickly changed his formation, presenting a pattern in which the left wing is at the back and the right wing is at the front.

The left wing assembled a full 5000 heavy armored infantry and [-] light cavalry raiding formations. Behind the heavy armored infantry were two light infantry phalanxes, with a large number of spearmen.In the formation arranged by Gu Qiudao, the left wing will not be attacked by the enemy immediately because it is delayed. At the same time, their main task is to defend and protect the left wing of the large formation from being breached.

To the right of the middle is the pikemen attacking head-on, with a sword and shield array behind them as support.

The rightmost wing is the key point of this formation, like a fist stretched forward, with the light cavalry leading the way, while the Anyang dragonriders and elite infantry attacked at the same time.The most powerful ability of the Western Wu cavalry is their riding and archery skills. Before the Tibetan Front Guard was born, they were often able to crush the few cavalry in the main beam, and then use the technique of riding and archery to disrupt the infantry formation of the main beam. After repeated impacts, as long as the army formation of Daliang was scattered, the heavy cavalry and infantry charged at the same time.

Often only one face-to-face is needed, and the heavy cavalry can crush the formation of the enemy's infantry, and then the light cavalry will enter from the flank, followed by their own infantry.

In short, the essence of this set of tactics is to defend the left flank, break through the right flank, and use the advantages of one's own cavalry to establish a victory.

And because the left wing only needs to undertake the defense, Gu Qiudao can even ignore the left wing when necessary and devote all his energy to the command of the right wing. This is an extremely obvious advantage when the command methods are not convenient enough.

As the two armies beat the drums at the same time, a third battlefield appeared to the west of Nanshan Village.

In the battle of Hucheng yesterday, Liang Jun won a complete victory, and the loss was within an acceptable range.After sending the wounded back to Hucheng, Qi Yunhou gathered 1 elite infantry, [-] cavalry from the Jingyu Battalion, plus [-] Tibetan front guards, bringing [-] troops to come here.

The change of Wu Jun's formation completely fell into the eyes of the generals in Daliang. Yin Wei did not look at the eldest son Yin Dao who was eager to try, but turned to the kind-hearted young general on the other side and said, "Commander Wei, what do you think about the situation?"

Wei Rui said politely: "Master Hou, how dare the last general speak nonsense? The Zang Fengwei is under the command of Lord Hou, but there are orders, and the last general and his subordinates will definitely go all out."

Yin Wei smiled slightly, the battle at Nanshanzhai had already taken shape as early as the beginning of the year, and at that time Gu Liang sent someone to send him a secret letter to ask for his opinion.Without his full support, Gu Liang might not have made up his mind, after all, the defenders of Hucheng are the strongest elite in the entire Western Army.

In the final decisive battle plan, Zangfengwei first had to cooperate with the defenders of Hucheng to defeat the Wu army outside the city, and then attacked the main rear of the Wu army under the command of Yin Wei.

Naturally, there is no problem with Wei Rui's statement, but Yin Wei said a little bit firmly: "This Marquis has always admired the military talent of the Duke of Wei. Presumably he must have told Commander Wei how to deal with the armed cavalry in Western Wu."

Wei Rui was startled, but he knew that Marquis Qi Yun was not close to the Duke of Wei because he had a close relationship with the Pei family of Dingguo Mansion, especially Pei Rong.But seeing the other party's sincere gaze at this moment, he thought for a while and said: "The Lord Guo did mention that if you want to defeat the Western Wu heavy cavalry, there are two ways. But in any case, our infantry formation must be able to withstand the impact of the enemy's heavy cavalry."

"It makes sense."

Yin Wei felt a little emotional in his heart, but he didn't expect Pei Yue's opinion to coincide with his.

The Wu army in the distance began to push forward, Yin Wei said seriously: "Yin Dao."

Yin Dao said awe-inspiringly: "The end is here!"

Yin Wei still looked at Wei Rui, and said sincerely: "Commander Wei, this Marquis entrusts you with five thousand men from Jingyu Camp, I hope you can win the battle!"

Wei Rui glanced at the young and sharp-eyed Yin Dao over there, and said calmly: "I will not disgrace my life!"

He rode his horse forward to the Tibetan front guard, and said decisively: "Old Chen."

Chen Xianda held the rein with one hand, and said with a smile: "Brother, please give me an order."

Wei Rui nodded, pointed to Wu Jun's left wing and said, "You lead five thousand vanguards, use the ring shooting method to force the opponent's position, and then go around to the weak point on the side and kick open the gate. I want Wu Jun not to look at each other."

"Follow the order!"

Chen Xianda grinned wide, raised the blood-stained Kuanrenpu knife to the sky, and under his leadership, five thousand cavalry rode out across the flat land like a flood, rushing towards the left flank of the Wu army trailing behind. .

Some hot-eyed Yin Dao hesitated to speak, Wei Rui gradually looked over with stern eyes, and said solemnly: "General Yin, please lead the Jingyu battalion to delay, and after I lead the army to defeat the Western Wu Qingqi, you will lead the army to the west." Cover up and kill."

Yin Dao opened his mouth slightly, he was indeed a little unconvinced, but when he thought of yesterday's battlefield, the seemingly literati general in front of him chopped off the head of Wu Jun's coach Lu Dingguo with his own hands, his overbearing and violent aura was shocking, He responded subconsciously: "Follow the order!"

Wei Rui withdrew his gaze, and exchanged a glance with Meng Longfu, who was always silent at the side, and the two smiled generously as if they lived together and died together.

The war broke out suddenly.

The overall formation of the Wu army moved forward, and the Hucheng infantry also lined up a complete formation of spears and swords and shields. Three cavalrymen rushed out of the position like lightning. Xi Wu rode away lightly, and Yin Dao led the Jing Yuying to follow behind, keeping a distance of about fifty feet.

The north wind hunted, Wanqi roared past.

There are about 7000 Qingqi on the right wing of Western Wu. Their task is to disrupt the infantry formation of the Liang army and create more favorable conditions for the Anyang dragon cavalry to charge in the rear.

The leader of the army looked at the cavalry of Liang Guo charging in the distance, and the banner of the Zang Fengwei came into view. He did not dare to be careless, and immediately ordered the whole army to move east, and threw countless arrows at Liang Jun from the side.

Arrows rained like locusts all over the sky.

In the Zangfeng Guards, Wei Rui said loudly: "Speed ​​up!"

Someone kept sending his orders to all directions, and then the Zang Fengwei, who was traveling at high speed, suddenly accelerated again, and the distance between the two sides was shortened in the blink of an eye.

"kill!"

Facing the continuous rain of arrows from Western Wu Qingqi, Zang Fengwei didn't have any timidity and fear, just like a sharp and unparalleled sword suddenly thrusting forward!
