The last three kingdoms

Chapter 383 The Battle of the Street Pavilion ([-])

The closer he got to the street pavilion, Liu Yin became more cautious and cautious at every step. The Tiger Cavalry Battalion in the forward position and the Yong'an Battalion and Qiang Battalion in the back always kept a distance of only two to three miles, and they could change their troops to attack at any time. battle formation.

After receiving the report from the scouts, Liu Yin immediately ordered the Shu army to enter the fighting state, and arranged a formation that had been drilled in advance. The left battalion of tiger riders and the right battalion of tiger riders were in the center, serving as the main assault force, and the Yong'an camp was the left wing. , the Qiang barracks are on the right wing, all lined up with spears.

With the infantry as the left and right wings of the cavalry and the spear formation as the defensive formation, Liu Yin's purpose is very clear, which is to avoid the outflanking of the Wei army's cavalry.Cavalry has strong maneuverability. Although infantry cannot keep up with the rhythm of cavalry, they can still effectively resist the impact of cavalry by forming a formation with spears.

The Wei army cavalry has an advantage in number. If the normal tactics are followed, the Wei army cavalry will definitely adopt the tactics of outflanking and outflanking. Although Liu Yin is still confident in his cavalry, if he is double-teamed by the Wei army, the situation Not too optimistic either.That's why Liu Yin formed two huge phalanxes of long spears on the left and right flanks, in order to provide flank protection for the cavalry in the middle and protect them from the danger of being attacked by the enemy.

Although the long spear array can effectively contain the enemy's offensive when dealing with the enemy's cavalry, it is always in the position of attacking from the back.

If the phalanx of spears on the two wings is a shield, then the two battalions of tiger cavalry in the middle are Liu Yin's sharpest spears.In this attack lineup, Liu Yin still formed a formation with cavalry archers in the center and cavalry cavalry as the left and right wings.

However, it is slightly different from the previous formation when attacking the Qiang people in Wucheng Mountain. During the Battle of Wucheng Mountain, the cavalry formation of the Shu army was in the shape of a pin, with archers rushing forward and cavalry on the side and rear. Maximize the ranged attack capabilities of cavalry archers.

And the battle of Dishui Cliff this time was not a sneak attack but a frontal battle. The cavalry of the Wei army came with a tsunami, aggressive and extremely fast. The cavalry collided head-on, which was undoubtedly disadvantageous for cavalry archers who were good at long-range strikes but weak in close combat.

Therefore, Liu Yin's formation this time is a straight line, that is, the cavalry archers in the center and the cavalry on the left and right flanks stand horizontally and attack at the same time.The cavalry archers will attack first after the cavalry of the enemy enters the range. With the speed of the cavalry on both sides, the cavalry archers can shoot at most two to three arrows. The cavalry collided head-on.

The Tiger Cavalry Battalion trained in Duangu for a whole winter, and the formation of the battle formation was very effective. Ten thousand cavalry were quickly and quickly arranged in a line formation, with the cavalry archers in the center and the cavalry cavalry on the left and right. The shape is neat, the bow is drawn and the spear is drawn, ready to go.

The formation of the cavalry is more difficult than that of the infantry. After all, the infantry only needs to have their personnel in place. The cavalry not only needs the personnel to be in place, but also the horses.But the Tiger Cavalry Battalion is well-trained, and the formation speed is even faster than the Yong'an Battalion, not to mention the newly formed Qiang Battalion.

After the establishment of the Qiang Barracks, Liu Yin sent a large number of middle and low-level military officers to the Qiang Barracks to serve as the Dubo Army Hou Sima of the Qiang Barracks. Responsibilities, the organization and discipline of the Qiang soldiers have been greatly improved, but if the Qiang people want to correct their freedom, it will not be achieved overnight. Just a single formation will be slower than other troops of the Shu army. There are many, and the formations listed are also top-notch, with no horizontal rows or vertical columns.

However, no one can question the individual combat ability of the Qiang soldiers. It is very rare for a newly formed army to be put into battle, so Liu Yin did not demand too much that the Qiang soldiers must fight with the Shu soldiers Be consistent, now is the time of war, an extraordinary time, soldiers who can be called and who can fight are already good.

Just when the Shu army had completed their formation under the Dishui Cliff, the Wei army cavalry had rushed over in overwhelming momentum.

The sound of rumbling horseshoes came deafeningly, as if there were bursts of muffled thunder in the sky, and the sound of knocking shook people's hearts.The thunder sounded from far to near, and from a distance, dust and smoke rose up to the sky on the horizon. In the billowing dust and smoke, thousands of horses were galloping, with momentum like the Yellow River breaking its embankment, and it was out of control.

The Wei army spread out on the front line that was several miles wide, and the scene of thousands of horses galloping was extremely spectacular. Tang Bin wanted to use the powerful impact of the cavalry to destroy the Shu army's defense line in one fell swoop, so the Wei army attacked after the first attack. In the middle, there was no reservation. All [-] cavalry were thrown into the battlefield at one time, and Tang Bin didn't even keep a reserve team of one man.

It's all done in one battle!Tang Bin is going to rely on the powerful cavalry of the Wei army to defeat the reinforcements of the Shu army in the shortest possible time. Tang Bin is confident in this. After all, in the history of previous battles, the Wei cavalry has an absolute advantage and is weak. It is impossible to compare with the unbearable Shu cavalry.

Tang Bin had already seen the formations listed by the Shu army, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. No matter how carefully the Shu army arranged the formation, as long as it entered the plain area, it was destined to become the stage for the Wei army. Under the overwhelming offensive, any resistance becomes powerless.

This will be a crushing victory!
Tang Bin did not doubt the final outcome of the battle at all. He raised the spear in his hand and shouted, "Kill!"

"Kill—kill—kill—" the Wei army cavalry also shouted in unison, hissing with all their strength, and amidst the sound of shouting and killing was wrapped in the sound of rumbling horseshoes, the iron cavalry of Wei State was like a brown torrent, which could not be stopped. The momentum rushed towards the position of the Shu army.

On the opposite side, Liu Yin calmly watched the Wei cavalry in his field of vision, and seeing that the Wei army had entered the attackable range, he immediately drew his sword in his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "I am invincible! He must win!"

"I am invincible-the attack must win-the victory-the victory-"thousands of soldiers of the Shu army raised their arms and shouted in unison, their morale was high and their fighting spirit was high, and the fighting spirit of the whole army reached an unprecedentedly strong state .

"Attack!" Liu Yin pointed forward with his sword and calmly gave the order to go out.
