Chapter 275
In the summer of the tenth year of Jianxing, Langmeng County, Taiyuan County.

The next day Budugen decided to fall to Kirby.

The morning wind brings a little bit of coolness.

Kebi was able to stop at Luochuankou, staring into the depths of the valley, and exhaled deeply.

Luochuankou is an atypical landform between two mountains and a ditch. The official road from Taiyuan to the north is suddenly blocked by mountains, passing through a narrow valley, and entering the area of ​​Yunzhong County.Further north is the desert grassland.

It is said to be a valley, but in fact the interior of Luochuankou is very wide. The entire valley is about twenty miles long and five or six miles wide. The Fen River passes through it, and the terrain in the valley is flat.

The [-] Xianbei cavalry ready for battle were divided into two parts. One part surrounded the northern exit of Luochuankou; miles away.As soon as Cao Wei's army entered the valley, they outflanked from behind and attacked from both sides.

When the sun gradually became fierce, the sound of rumbling horseshoes sounded from the other side of the valley, from far to near, resounding through the valley.

Budugen and Xieguini were the first to appear in the sight of the crowd. The two rode side by side at the forefront of the team, and the people behind them pulled into a long snake and meandered towards them.

Kirby was able to immediately go forward, exchanged warm greetings, and then raised his hand to let the people go.

Budugen's 10,000+ troops passed through the valley on the front foot, and a scout urged the horse to come to Kobineng on the back foot, and reported to him: "My lord, the 2 horses who have completed the track are already twenty miles away."

Ke Bingeng said "hmm", made a double attack gesture, and ordered: "Very well, immediately notify my third brother, and wait for Wei Jun to come into the valley, and cover him from behind."

"Yes, allow surrender?"

"Allow surrender!"

"By the way, tell my third brother to expand the scope of scout patrols, and Wei Jun must not notice his whereabouts."

The scout responded, pulled his horse and left.

Kebi could turn his head to look at Ma Di: "In General Ma's opinion, is this king's dispatch in line with the law of war?"

Ma Di shook his head calmly, secretly admiring that Kebi was worthy of being the No. 1 Xianbei after Tan Shihuai. It can."

Kebi was startled: "An ordinary general has this ability? Is this true?"

"No lie!"

Kebi could laugh, but he didn't believe it in his heart, so he said instead: "This king didn't know how to read or write before, but he conquered the whole of Monan!"

Having said that, he looked complacent, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

You can see that he is very proud.

Being able to kill in the Bronze Five does not mean that you will be invincible when you become the king. Ma Di was speechless for a while.

"My lord, let me tell you something you don't like to hear. Conquering the grasslands is nothing to brag about. A true hero is one who can compete head-on with Wei without losing the wind!"

Knowing that the king doesn't like to hear you still say it?

Upon hearing this, Kirby Neng's face immediately felt a little uneasy, he gritted his teeth suddenly, and tightened his grip on the rein in his hand.

It doesn't feel good to be looked down upon.

What Ma Di said is correct. As far as today's situation is concerned, under the premise of having a huge military advantage, Xianbei did not fight the Wei army head-on. Instead, it chose to use tactics to count the Wei army. This shows that in the hearts of Xianbei people, they are extremely afraid Wei Jun.

The soldiers are timid before fighting, so why talk about the best cavalry in the world?

But Kirby has a reason for being able to do this.For a long time, although he always believed that the Xianbei cavalry was the strongest in the world, he still couldn't beat Wei's cavalry.When the two armies fought, Xianbei always lost more and won less. This cruel fact made Kirby fear Cao Wei in his heart.It also made many tribesmen regard him as a civil war giant who only punched his own tribe hard, and became a submissive dwarf when facing the Han people.

But there was nothing he could do.With the same strength, the Xianbei could not defeat the Wei soldiers at all. This is no longer a question of the quality of the soldiers, but a question of the combination and strategy of the troops.

Kirby has studied Wei's cavalry and found that Wei's cavalry is indeed much stronger than Xianbei's cavalry.

The cavalry of the Wei State can be divided into archers, heavy cavalry, spear cavalry, and light cavalry. Many arms cooperate with each other. Every general is familiar with when to use which arms; A type of light cavalry with cavalry attributes, and the only common combat method is "bombing".

In addition, there is a gap in weapons. Due to the rich iron ore resources and advanced iron smelting technology in Wei State, cavalry weapons can be divided into spears, long spears, long swords, long knives, hard bows, etc.;

However, the Xianbei people were limited by the lack of iron ore resources and backward iron smelting technology. In terms of the length of the knife alone, it was much shorter than Wei's long knife.

With such poor equipment and poor types of arms, how could the Xianbei not suffer in a fight?
The cavalry is different from other arms. It has its own set of combat mechanisms and rules of use. It is a flexible combat unit that can be gathered or dispersed.Not only to eat equipment, but also extremely test the general's commanding ability in all aspects.This makes it possible for the army to have a greater chance of winning in an encounter or a decisive battle, whichever side has superior equipment, superior arms, and more flexible control.

This kind of chance of winning will not be seen in the art of war, but it is more important than the art of war.

The other is the gap between the generals at the grassroots level. For now, an ordinary cavalry general of Wei State can be competent for all the positions of the Xianbei cavalry, and it will never affect the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei cavalry.However, ordinary Xianbei officers were not qualified for the same position when they arrived in Wei State.

All in all, except for the fact that the Xianbei cavalry has a slight advantage over the Wei cavalry in manipulating the horse, they are lagging behind in several other aspects.

Kirby can understand these things clearly, and it is precisely because of this that he is so afraid of Wei Guo.

Although he said that he would not provoke Wei Guo for the time being, in his heart he always wanted to give Wei Guo a ruthless blow - this was the main reason why he went south to Taiyuan with all his strength.

Ma Su's sentence "The real hero is not to lose the wind in a head-on contest with Wei Guo", really made him unable to refute.Kirby is so eager to use this battle to boost the shortcomings of Xianbei soldiers who are strong on the outside but cowardly on the inside.

Even if it is a trick, Kirby needs such a victory too much to prove the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei cavalry.

Today, he finally got this opportunity to fight more with less, because scouts reported that Bigui, governor of Bingzhou of Wei State, brought [-] soldiers and horses to the south entrance of Luochuankou, and was about to enter the canyon.

At the same time, according to the news disclosed by Ma Di and the intelligence sent back by the eagle, the Eighth Northern Expedition of the Shu Han also started in full swing.

The Northern Expedition of the Shu Han was the most powerful of all previous Northern Expeditions. Zhuge Liang used 20 soldiers and horses, including 15 infantry and [-] cavalry.The Shu army was divided into three groups, one from Longyou, one from Chencang Road, and one from Xiegu.

Such a large-scale military operation can be said to be unprecedented in ancient times.Even going back to the Han, Pre-Qin, Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the Liangchuan region had never launched such a large-scale military offensive against the Central Plains.

This means that no matter how big a hole Kirby can make in the northern border of Wei State, Sima Yi, the most powerful commander in Wei State, will not be able to rush over to deal with him before repelling the offensive of the Shu army.

As long as Sima Yi couldn't come, then he would be fearless if he could.

What Tian Yu, Qin Lang; what Bi Gui, full of favors, in his eyes, they are nothing to be afraid of!
Kirby was able to gather his thoughts, looked up at the sky, looked up at the valley, and looked anxious.

An hour has passed, and Bi Gui's soldiers and horses have not yet entered the valley. Usually, this journey only takes half an hour.

Kirby suddenly shuddered in his heart, feeling a little cold on his back, and his intuition told him that he seemed to have overlooked very important information.

This is not normal!

But I racked my brains and thought about it, but found nothing.

He looked at Ma Di, but saw that the latter was holding his chin thoughtfully.

At this moment, Ke Bing could not care about the airs of the king, and lowered his face and asked, "Has General Ma found out?"

Ma Di nodded: "When Budugen sent an envoy to express his intention to take refuge in the past, did he say how many troops he has under his command? How many soldiers and horses?"

"Say it!"

Kirby could reply without thinking: "There are [-] to [-] troops, and [-] cavalry."

After all, he said suspiciously: "Just now Budugen's troops and soldiers passed by here. Didn't General Ma see it?"

Ma Di didn't answer, but asked instead, "I wonder how many troops the king has under his command? How many soldiers and horses?"

Kirby frowned and thought about it, and said uncertainly: "There are about 80 million troops and 15 cavalry. If all strong men are soldiers, [-] cavalry can also be formed."

"That's right!" Ma Di snapped his fingers, "That's where the problem lies."

"According to the proportion of soldiers and civilians under the king's command, the number of soldiers and horses of the [-] to [-] troops under Bu Dugen's command is at least [-], and it can even reach [-], but he said that there are only [-] soldiers and horses under his command. The most important thing is, Budugen's army is at the rear of the Great King's [-] cavalry..."

Hearing this, Kirby gasped and turned pale with shock.In fact, there is no need for Ma Di to remind him anymore, he already knows how to deal with it.

Because of the sound of rumbling horseshoes, it sounded from the north, that is, behind the Xianbei cavalry.

The sky was covered by smoke and dust in the distance, and the ground trembled under his feet.

"Quick, quick, quick, turn, meet the enemy!"

Kirby was able to pull out the long knife abruptly and point it in the direction behind him.

Ma Su couldn't help reminding: "Your Majesty, we need to keep [-] soldiers and horses to defend the Wei army in the direction of the canyon."

By now, the situation has become obvious.

Bi Gui conspired with Bu Dugen and Xie Guini, and the latter two pretended to take refuge and successfully transported the soldiers to Kebi Neng's back; , and then rushed out of the canyon, attacking Kobineng back and forth with lightning speed.

"Ah, yes, yes, this king almost forgot about this." Kirby raised his forehead and quickly left [-] cavalry behind, still blocking the entrance of the valley.He personally led [-] cavalrymen and rushed towards Budugen's army.

When it comes to this kind of bayonet fight, tricks and strategies can play very little role.

When we meet on a narrow road, only the brave will win.

the other side.

While urging their horses to speed up, Bu Dugen and Xie Guini discussed their plans after defeating Kobineng.

Before, the two had nowhere to go and planned to seek refuge with Ke Bineng, but Bi Gui came to visit overnight and resorted to the strategy of "doing what you want".

When Budugen and Xieguini heard it, they were immediately moved.

There is only one reason that makes their hearts move-the two of them, one can have revenge against Kirby for killing his brother, and the other can have revenge against Kirby for killing his father.

For this reason, they are willing to conspire with the Wei army to attack Kirbineng.

Originally, they had no choice but to rely on Kirbyneng. Given the choice, they would of course do Kirbyneng.

"Uncle, our army has sped up, and Kebineng's cavalry is still at Luochuankou. There is no doubt that Kebineng will be defeated in this battle!" Xie Guini said confidently, finally able to avenge his father's death , he looked very excited.

Thirty thousand Xianbei cavalry, under the leadership of Bu Dugen and Xie Guini, quietly turned back from behind Ke Bineng, and took advantage of the latter's unawares to attack from behind.

Under such a situation, even if Kirby could have [-] more cavalry (Kirbineng's other [-] cavalry were deployed at the southern end of Luochuankou), how could they be undefeated?
Bu Dugen laughed three times, waved his long knife and said, "My good nephew, I can finally avenge my father's revenge!"

"Warriors, follow me to kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

In an instant, the shouts of [-] cavalry resounded throughout.

Xie Guini brandished his weapon, his eyes widened, and he stared fixedly at Kirby Neng, who was trying to turn around three or four hundred paces away, his eyes spouted intense anger.

Killing his father and enemy is just around the corner, and he is still waiting to be caught, how can he not kill with pride.

The group of soldiers behind Xie Guini also knew what their leader meant, and immediately charged up one by one, increased their horse speed again, and rushed towards Ke Bineng at an even faster speed.

When Xie Guini looked at Ke Bineng, Ke Bineng also saw the former.

As the number one warrior on the prairie, Kirby naturally didn't pay attention to young people like Xie Guini, but the current situation was a bit passive. The opponent's cavalry had already started at full speed, and his own cavalry had just adjusted their direction. to zero.

As we all know, [-]% of the combat effectiveness of cavalry comes from the high-speed impact of horses.The opponent's horse speed is so fast, the impact force has reached a terrifying level.

Under this kind of impact, even if the opponent does nothing, they can kill a large number of their own cavalry just by savagely colliding.

Invincible, but have to fight.

Kebi knew the danger of the situation at this moment, and he could not hesitate for a moment. He immediately raised his weapon and shouted: "Warriors, go forward bravely, and take my life! Forty thousand reinforcements will arrive in no time, persistence means victory, kill!"

After these two injections of chicken blood, the soldiers who were seized by the opponent's momentum finally mustered up their courage and rushed out screaming.

After a while, the two torrents of cavalry collided head-on, melting each other, mixed with the screams of countless people and horses, blood shot out, and all the sights were stumped and broken.

The scene was so tragic, it was like the Shura Field of Hell.

When Ke Bineng was fighting desperately with his uncle and nephew Bu Dugen, Bi Gui left Dong Bi to guard the southern section of Luochuankou, and personally led his army general Su Shang to copy Ke Bineng's back.

At the same time, Cao Rui, who learned of the changes in the northern border, sent Qin Lang to lead [-] Chinese troops from Hedong County to the north to reinforce Bigui and go out to discuss Ke Bineng.
