Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 91

When Tian Yu was under Gongsun Zan's command, he was already an elite cavalry and pawn, good at scouting.

Now as Lu Zhi's disciple, he has received a lot of guidance from Lu Zhi along the way.

Lu Zhi also admired this disciple who had not reached the championship but had been fighting on the battlefield for several years.

"Go back quickly."

Lu Zhi agreed to Tian Yu's plea, and then ordered Zhang Fei to gather troops.

Gongsun Zan lent [-] cavalry, and Zhang Fei recruited Qianyu Township Yongyi cavalry.

Under Lu Zhi's command, there are about [-] cavalry available.

Although most of them are recruits, after a month of marching and reorganizing the army, these thousand cavalry have initially been able to adapt to cavalry tactics.

If it weren't for this, the distance from Zhuojun to Leling County is more than [-] li, even if there are heavy infantry delaying the marching speed, it will not take a month.

Under the guidance of Lu Zhi, Zhang Fei's ability to command troops has also improved by leaps and bounds.

Before that, Zhang Fei had hardly commanded troops.

Liu Bei handed over the county soldiers and wealthy private soldiers in Gaotang County to Guan Yu, but Zhang Fei had no chance to touch them.

But these thousand cavalry have been led by Zhang Fei for a month, with Lu Zhi accompanying them.

Lu Zhi is very good at teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.

Even a fighter like Zhang Fei who is good at reading but doesn't seek to understand deeply can remember this method of commanding troops and can use it.

"Master Lu, according to your order, a thousand cavalry have assembled." Zhang Fei was a little excited.

Although he learned orthodox cavalry tactics from Lu Zhi for a month, Zhang Fei had never really fought on the battlefield.

Whether the tactics learned can be used will have to pass the test of the battlefield.

Lu Zhi nodded and reminded: "Yide, this is your first time commanding cavalry, you must remember that on this battlefield, if the soldiers don't know the generals and the generals don't know the soldiers, then half of the defeat will be lost."

"The old man knows that you are brave and good at fighting, but personal bravery does not determine the outcome on the battlefield. You can only use your bravery to bind these thousand cavalry into a single rope."

"Advance and retreat at the same time, the offensive is like fire, and the coming and going is like the wind, only then can we be victorious in every battle!"

Zhang Fei was awe-inspiring, and silently wrote down Lu Zhi's teaching: "Master Lu, don't worry, I won't let you down."

After half an hour.

Tian Yu rode his horse back and reported the enemy's situation to Lu Zhi: "Master Lu, those who attacked Leling City were yellow scarf soldiers from Le'an Kingdom. I don't know where I heard that this Leling City stored a large number of grain merchants from Jizhou. Money and food."

"The Yellow Turban bandits have three commanders, namely Wang, Guo, and Cong. It is roughly estimated that there are about 3 bandits, and there are about 5000 capable of fighting."

"The guards of Leling City seem unwilling to use thunder stones and rolling logs to smash the old and weak women and children under the city. Many yellow scarf bandits have climbed up the tower."

"But fortunately, the city tower is narrow, and the armor and weapons of the guards are better than those of the Yellow Turban bandits. It is also difficult for the Yellow Turban bandits to take advantage of their numbers in a short period of time to seize the tower."

Tian Yu's spying on the enemy's situation is much more detailed than the previous scouts.

Lu Zhi nodded involuntarily, and was quite satisfied with Tian Yu's spying this time: "The two armies are at war, and only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we be victorious in every battle."

"But it's easy to know yourself, but it's extremely difficult to know your enemy."

"So when you are in charge of spying on intelligence, you must choose smart ones, otherwise it will delay the military aircraft."

Lu Zhiming praised Tian Yu, but the implication in his words was to teach Zhang Fei.

After all, these thousands of cavalry soldiers, including the scouts, are all commanded by Zhang Fei.

The scouts were not selected well, so it was naturally Zhang Fei's command error.

"This is my fault. After this battle is over, I will train them hard." Zhang Fei looked a little ashamed.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. Once there is a comparison, the scouts Zhang Fei selected are like idiots.

Lu Zhi nodded. After all, the purpose was to point out Zhang Fei's mistakes in commanding the cavalry so that Zhang Fei could reflect on them, rather than reprimanding Zhang Fei for not being able to choose a scout.

The reason why he didn't give pointers until now is because Zhang Fei can have a deeper understanding only when he is really close to the battlefield.

After all, this opponent is just a Yellow Turban bandit soldier, so Lu Zhi doesn't have to worry about delaying the battle.

"Quick battle and quick decision." Lu Zhi gave Zhang Fei an order.

In this kind of battlefield, Lu Zhi didn't need to go to Leling City in person.

With a brave general like Zhang Fei around, Lu Zhi only needs to stay in the rear and command.

Will be in the front, handsome in the back.

The food and supplies in this camp are also the most important.

"Finally it's my old Zhang's turn!" Zhang Fei became even more excited.

Zhang Fei asked the ten county soldiers in the camp that Leling City had been captured by the Yellow Turban before, but it was defeated by Zheng Ping's county soldiers.

The one guarding the city now is Liu Ziping's son-in-law Deng Xu.

Seeing that Zheng Ping didn't take Guan Yu with him when he defeated the Yellow Turban, Zhang Fei guessed that Guan Yu must be in Gaotang County.

Now the Yellow Turbans in the nine counties of Pingyuan have been defeated, which means that the Yellow Turbans in Gaotang County have also been defeated by Guan Yu.

Thinking that Guan Yu had already led his troops to fight against the Yellow Turban, Zhang Fei was excited and at the same time had the desire to compete.

Zhang Fei's march was very fast.

It didn't take long to arrive outside Leling City.

Looking at the old and weak Yellow Turbans surrounding the city, and the young and strong Yellow Turbans who were attacking the city, Zhang Fei's ring eyes were scanning the battlefield repeatedly.

Zhang Fei kept in mind Lu Zhi's teachings: on this battlefield, if soldiers don't know their generals and generals don't know their soldiers, they are half defeated.Only use bravery to twist the thousand cavalry into a single rope.Advance and retreat at the same time, attack like fire, come and go like wind, only then can we be victorious in every battle!
But it is not easy to really meet Lu Zhi's expectations.

After observing for a while, Zhang Fei finally found the best route to enter the battlefield.

"Follow the flag bearer!"

"Soldiers, kill the enemy and make meritorious service, at this moment!"

Zhang Fei kicked the horse's belly violently, sat down and Wuyun Liangju neighed, and quickly rushed towards the Yellow Turban bandit soldiers.

The flag bearer carrying the general flag followed closely behind Zhang Fei.

The flag bearers are strong and well-managed cavalry pawns, even if they are carrying a heavy general flag, it will not affect the speed of the flag bearer.

Under the guidance of the general flag, a thousand cavalry followed closely.

These cavalry were all from the township brave volunteers recruited by Zhuojun, while the cavalry recruited from Gongsun Zan stayed with Lu Zhi.

Since it is training, it is natural to use recruits who are on the battlefield for the first time.

Only after they have truly experienced the dangers of the battlefield can these young cavalrymen transform into fine cavalry capable of fighting.

Will be the courage of soldiers.

Zhang Fei was brave, and the cavalry who followed were also full of morale.

Only the sound of shouts of killing echoed, and the yellow turban bandits commander Guo Zu, Wang Ying and Cong Qian who were directing the battle under the city of Leling looked back in amazement.

"Where did this cavalry come from?" Wang Ying's eyeballs almost popped out.

Although the Yellow Turbans in the Pingyuan Kingdom were defeated by Liu Bei, Wang Ying knew very well that Liu Bei was still settling the 10,000+ refugees in the Beihai Kingdom.

If not, Wang Ying, Guo Zu and Cong Qian would not have dared to attack Leling City rashly.

I thought I was here to catch a leak, but suddenly a cavalry appeared!
Looking at the momentum, there are still a lot of cavalry.

"Zhang Yide from Yan is here, the thief will dare to fight!"

Zhang Fei roared like a leopard, and his aura alone made the legs of the yellow-turban bandits blocking the way weak, and they could hardly hold the swords and guns in their hands.

"Wang Ying, Cong Qian, work together to kill the ring-eyed thief!" Guo Zu responded the fastest.

If they are scattered by this cavalry, no matter those who have already boarded the tower or those gathered under the city, they will all become lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The simplest and most effective way is to work together to kill the ring-eyed general in front of him!

Wang Ying and Cong Qian didn't hesitate, they clenched their weapons tightly and stared at Zhang Fei.

Some of the yellow turban thieves could shoot, but under Guo Zu's order, they aimed their bows and arrows at Zhang Fei.

"Those who shoot the enemy generals will be rewarded with a month's food!"

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, even the Yellow Turban bandit soldiers are no exception.

One month's food is enough for these Yellow Turban soldiers to go crazy.

"Shield, defend!"

Zhang Fei didn't go solo, he relied on his own bravery to kill Guo Zu, Wang Ying and Cong Qian, the three yellow scarf bandits.

On the battlefield, personal bravery is difficult to determine the outcome.

A general who is really good at fighting must learn to twist all the soldiers and horses under his command into a single rope.

Lu Zhi's exhortations are vivid in my ears.

Under Zhang Fei's order, more than a dozen cavalrymen who followed Zhang Fei raised their left hands one after another.

The left forearm of these cavalrymen has a cavalry-specific arm shield, which is used to block flying arrows while riding a horse at high speed.

For the Youzhou cavalry who are good at riding and shooting, even if they only have one-sided stirrups, it is a basic operation to control the horse with their feet.

The right hand weapon pushes away the arrows, and the left arm shield blocks the arrows.

There have long been cavalrymen who are good at shooting, and they have begun to pay back with their bows and arrows.

Puff puff--

The sound of sharp arrows sinking gradually sounded.

Looking at the fallen archers around them, the eyes of Guo Zu and the other three became more frightened.

"This is no ordinary cavalry!"

"Can ride and shoot, and can block arrows. Could it be that the cavalry from Youzhou have gone south?"

"Guo Shuai, do we still want to kill the ring-eyed thief?" Wang Ying and Cong Qian hesitated.

I wanted to use the bow and arrow to consume it first, and then attack together to kill Zhang Fei with my own bravery.

As a result, Zhang Fei looked fierce and reckless, but he was not reckless at all.

The dozen or so cavalry around them were protecting and supporting each other.

This kind of tactics is not something that a yellow scarf commander like Wang Ying can understand.

"If you want to kill you, retreat!" Guo Zu's reaction was still the fastest.

Can't stop, can't beat.

36 meter, go is the best plan.

Although Guo Zu ran away ahead of time, Wang Ying and Cong Qian were stunned in place, as if they didn't quite understand why Guo Zu ran away.

When the two reacted, Zhang Fei had already led his troops to the front of the formation.

"Braves without courage, take your life."

Zhang Fei was vicious, and this zhangba snake spear was longer than ordinary weapons.

In just one breath, Wang Ying was carried away by the snake spear.

Frightened by Qian Qian, he scrambled and scrambled towards the pile of dead people, successfully avoiding Zhang Fei's snake spear.

But before he could turn around and run away from Qian, another cavalry squad arrived.

Congqian fought hard for a while, but before he breathed a sigh of relief, the third cavalry squad rushed up again.

"How is this going?"

From Qian holding the bloody hole in his chest, he didn't understand how the cavalry in front of him shot him.

Watchtower.

Deng Xu raised his voice and shouted: "The reinforcements have arrived, kill the thief!"

Congqian didn't understand how he died, but Deng Xu from the city tower saw it very clearly.

Zhang Fei's cavalry was divided into five cavalry squads, and each cavalry squad maintained a relatively tacit formation.

Even if the shot misses, the cavalry will not look back at the yellow turban thief, but continue to sprint in the direction of the general flag.

Congqian didn't understand it, because during the period of struggling to resist, a pawn of the fourth cavalry squad fired his gun just enough to reach Congqian.

A group of sloppy yellow scarves faced the Youzhou cavalry who had been trained in Lu Zhi's orthodox cavalry tactics. It was like a chick meeting an eagle.
That is to say, Zhang Fei was not proficient enough in using this cavalry tactics, so that only one Wang Ying was killed in the first wave.

If Zhang Fei is given another year, whether it is Guo Zu who escaped or Cong Qian who went to the dead man's pile, they will all die in the first wave of shock.

The battle ended quickly.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the yellow turban thieves in the tower either knelt down and surrendered, or jumped off the tower to escape.

Deng Xu rode out of the city to meet Zhang Fei: "Yide, thank you for coming to help today. When did you return to Pingyuan?"

Zhang Fei laughed loudly: "It's been two days since I came back, and I've been hiding in the camp to the north. I heard that you built that camp."

Deng Xu nodded: "It's all arranged by Mr., and it is still useful to keep the camp. I just realized today that Mr. is specially prepared for Yide."

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Fei asked Liu Bei's whereabouts.

It's been a long time since I saw Liu Bei, and Zhang Fei was very concerned about it.

Deng Xu said frankly: "Your Majesty resettled refugees in Beihai, and most of the grain merchants from Jizhou also went to Beihai to traffic in grain."

Zhang Fei said: "No wonder the Yellow Turban bandit soldiers said that Leling City has a large amount of grain and rice brought in by grain merchants in Jizhou, so they came to attack the city."

Deng Xu was taken aback: "Yide, is your information true? Although there are grain merchants from Jizhou in Leling City, they only come to the city to inquire about news, and their grain has never passed through Leling City."

"No food? Why would the yellow scarf bandits come to beat you if there is no food?" Zhang Fei was also stunned.

next moment.

Both Zhang Fei and Deng Xu sensed something was wrong.

"Someone deliberately lured the Yellow Turban Bandits to attack Leling City. It's really courageous, and my elder brother dares to plot!" Zhang Fei was so angry that he shouted: "I'm going to find Master Lu, and I'll leave it to you to clean up the battlefield under the city. "

Zhang Fei did not linger, and directly led the cavalry back to the camp.

As soon as he saw Lu Zhi, Zhang Fei told Lu Zhi everything about the situation in Leling City, and the anger in his heart continued unabated: "Master Lu, there must be villains who want to persecute my elder brother. You have to meet up with Big Brother immediately."

Lu Zhi frowned.

The reason why the yellow scarves attacked Leling City was because there was no money or food in Leling City?

"Yide, don't be impatient!" Lu Zhi comforted the angry Zhang Fei, thinking: "The most urgent thing is to get in touch with Xuande of Beihai Kingdom."

Zhang Fei asked for orders immediately: "Master Lu, I know the way to Beihai, so I will go!"

Lu Zhi did not agree: "Now the situation is unclear, Yide cannot leave easily. Go to Leling City first, and then send someone to deliver a letter to Xuande."
