Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 365
With Zhu Wei convincing Zhang Zhao, the tone of the Northern Expedition to Liu Biao was basically set.

Then Zhu Wei asked some specific things to see if the people here had any opinions.

Pang Yan was just like usual, there was nothing to say at all, and he was ready to listen to the arrangements for action. On the contrary, Teng Yuyan, who was sitting next to Pang Yan, raised some specific questions about marching and launching, as well as how the cavalry boarded the boat and how to march.

After all, in terms of river boats and warships these days, it is relatively easy to transport ordinary soldiers, but it is not easy to transport thousands of war horses.

After Teng Yuyan asked these questions, Wang Yuyan also gave some replies. This time, Zhu Wei's cavalry mainly used boats to cross the Yangtze River. After that, the cavalry will find a way to detour from Jiangxia County to Nanyang County.

It happened that Wang Yuyan also made some strategic and tactical arrangements for all the cavalry under Zhu Wei's tent.

In fact, this time, not only the [-] cavalry that Zhu Wei assigned to the Xiongba camp, but also the newly formed [-] cavalry from the Zhu Weizhong barracks will also act together with the cavalry from the Xiongba camp.

According to the previous plan of Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan, after the merger of the cavalry of the two battalions, Mu Lan will be the main force, and Teng Yuyan will be the assistant. Then turn to Zhangling and Caiyang to attack the northern part of Xiangyang City.

The purpose of the cavalry dispatch was to lure Xiangyang City to Nanyang County to send reinforcements again to disperse the troops, and then to prevent Wenpin and Han Song stationed in Xinye, and Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu stationed in Wancheng to lead troops to assist Xiangyang.

To be honest, it was helpless to let Mulan and Teng Yuyan lead the cavalry in battle. Zhu Wei really had no other suitable generals who could lead the cavalry in battle.

Most of the generals on Zhu Wei's side were southern generals, who were not very good at cavalry combat.

Even Gan Ning and Wei Yan may not be good at cavalry tactics, so the best candidates Zhu Wei can use are generals who have been systematically instilled knowledge, but in this case they are Pang Yan and Mu Lan.

And Pang Yan is the chief general of the Xiongba Battalion, so it is naturally impossible to take the cavalry for flanking assistance. Besides, sending Pang Yan out to fight alone, Zhu Wei is still worried that his intelligence will be designed by others.

After all, there is a poisonous scholar Jia Xu in Nanyang County, and Han Song, who is assisting Wenpin, is also a military adviser. If they use tricks, it may be very troublesome.

Therefore, letting Pang Yan lead the troops to fight alone really made Zhu Wei uneasy, so Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan calculated who Zhu Wei could now use to command the cavalry to fight.

Apart from Pang Yan and Mulan, Tai Shici from the north is the only one he can choose, but Tai Shici is now the chief general of the Shenjian Battalion, so he can't be transferred from the main army and formed into a temporary cavalry commander.

This is also inappropriate, as if he doesn't trust Tai Shici who sits in Jiangxia and wants to deprive him of his military power in Jiangxia.

Therefore, after thinking twice, he can only let Mu Lan go, plus a Teng Yuyan as a supplement.

Mulan is a girl from the north. She is good at fighting on horseback. At the same time, she has the knowledge instilled in the Three Kingdoms game system. It is no problem to command cavalry to fight.

As for Teng Yuyan, although she was born in the mountains, she was not good at riding horses at first, but these days, she was basically responsible for the training and command of cavalry in Zhu Wei's Zhongjun camp and Pang Yan's Xiongba camp. The attribute base can be regarded as training some cavalry tactics.

In this way, they are the only two cavalrymen who are most suitable for commanding Zhu Wei. In addition, their intelligence level is around 65 or 67. Ordinary tricks may not be able to catch them, and they can be at ease.

Even if Zhu Wei was a little reluctant to let Mulan go into battle, and worried that she would be injured, but for the sake of the overall situation, naturally he couldn't just hide it and use it.

Fortunately, Zhu Wei's cavalry are all light cavalry, and they are also trained in Mongolian mangu tactics, rather than heavy cavalry fighting hard against others. As long as Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan are not blindly impulsive and can display the agility of light cavalry, then they It's not likely to encounter too much trouble.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Zhu Wei's cavalry has been formally dispatched on the battlefield. Zhu Wei's cavalry has not been formally used on the battlefield since it was organized and trained.

Before that, with the help of the speed of the cavalry, they raided the empty Linyuan County of Wuling County.

But this is not the real use of Zhu Wei's light cavalry. According to Zhu Wei's plan for these light cavalry, they should be a special unit used in the field battlefield, and they are surprise soldiers who use bows and arrows to attack the enemy's formation.

Therefore, in Zhu Wei's previous battles, the cavalry was useless.

But this time the attack on Jingbei was different. The cavalry entered the territory of Nanyang County. The mountains, hills, and plains in Nanyang each accounted for one-third of the terrain. With the use of cavalry.

As long as Mulan and Teng Yuyan can grasp the agility of Zhu Wei's light cavalry, even if it is because of the number of horses, these cavalry cannot ride two or more horses, and there are not enough horses to take turns to save horsepower. But it is also enough to make the enemy feel a headache on the plains and hills with the help of horsepower.

Light cavalry raids, changing direction suddenly when approaching the enemy's army formation, and then shooting and killing the enemy's soldiers in the army formation with bows and arrows when facing the enemy sideways, can avoid the consumption of reckless confrontation with the enemy army , can also take advantage of the speed advantage of the cavalry to move back and forth in front of the enemy's formation, using bows and arrows to consume the enemy's troops little by little.

If the enemy army changes formation to fight, Qingqi can retreat temporarily, and shoot while retreating. If the enemy stops, Qingqi will attack again, and continue to shoot and kill the enemy soldiers with bows and arrows. Qingqi shot with a bow and arrow.

Zhu Wei still pinned a lot of hopes on the light cavalry he trained with the Mongolian mangu evil tactics.

In fact, these light cavalry of Zhu Wei were mainly trained by Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan, so now Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan are the most suitable candidates to lead the light cavalry as the positive and negative generals.

To be honest, when Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan were discussing strategies and tactics, Mu Lan was already extremely happy when they told Mu Lan that they could lead the cavalry to fight this time.

Mu Lan has always hoped to be able to lead an army alone like Pang Yan, and lead troops to charge into battle. Although she was considered to be in command of Zhu Wei's Chinese army camp before, she was actually just a nominal name. She has been restrained by Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan. , I have long felt that heroes are useless.

Now it's finally time for her to wait...
