"Charge!" However, this thief general was killed on the front line, gritted his teeth, and continued to shout. He even patted his horse and rushed towards the enemy.

The big sword soldiers are almost completely abolished, but there are still more than 2000 pike soldiers, and the opponent only has 1000 people, so they can still fight.Especially after shooting once, it is not so easy for the opponent to shoot again!

"Hold them!" The thief will shout, yes, just hold them, just hold them!

He suddenly understood why the higher-ups asked him to attack halfway, and he must hold back the troops coming across the river instead of destroying them.This team is too weird, let's talk about the crossbow first, its power is too weird!

"Follow me to kill the thief!" With Guan Yu's roar, the sword and shield soldiers also began to attack in all directions, and killed the thief.Without the threat of big sword soldiers, the sword and shield soldiers also began to advance slowly, engaging the enemy.

When they really started contacting, Guan Yu quickly realized a problem. The other party didn't seem to plan to fight recklessly, and they kept wandering and probing, as if they were delaying time.He realized something immediately, and subconsciously glanced behind the general.

At the same time, Liu Tao, who was observing the battlefield with all his strength, suddenly said: "Five miles to the left, enemy cavalry appeared!"

Two-way double-teaming, attacking halfway to contain the enemy's soldiers, cavalry raids, and surprise raids on the officers and soldiers' luggage, this is the purpose of the thieves!

100 cavalry charge

There is a trick in the art of war called 'strike halfway'.Originally, dams were built to hold back the water, and then the enemy was led to cross the river. When the river was halfway crossed, when it was in a dilemma, the water attacked the enemy.

Zhang Baoke does not have the ability to cut off the Hutuo River, but he also has his method of "strike halfway across".

In his opinion, whenever a river is to be crossed, the soldiers must be divided into two groups within a certain period of time.One is in the front and the other is in the back. It is estimated that the supply troops will be in the middle, so it is safer to cross the river.

Then the so-called half-crossing attack is to wait until the enemy is halfway across the river and the army is divided into two parts, and attack the troops on one side with superior forces.Let's just say that now, three thousand elite soldiers attack one thousand vanguard troops, which is basically successful in normal times.

In order to be more on the safe side, he sent another [-] cavalry to wait across the river ahead of time. After the signal beacon was lit at the rear, the troops also began to move towards this side.

"Fight if you win, and retreat if you don't win!" Even so, Zhang Bao was not confident that he could destroy this army of officers and soldiers, but he strictly ordered the two generals to protect the soldiers to the utmost extent.

Only after fighting many battles did we realize that a short-term victory is not a victory, but a final victory is a victory.Zhang Liang on the front line said that many officers and soldiers resorted to sacrificing some soldiers and even supplies to make them careless, and then suddenly counter-killed or even ambushed.

There are many battles like this, and people also start to learn to be smarter, and gradually learn to summarize.Most of Ye Luzi's generals grew up in this way. This thing depends on talent. After all, without systematic study, how much he can comprehend determines what position the general will eventually reach.

"Contain these soldiers for me, don't let them cross the bridge!" On the river bank, there were only [-] soldiers left, and the bandit general was commanding the soldiers to face Guan Yu's sword and shield soldiers. .Especially for those crossbowmen, although the power of the crossbow bolts was not that great after the second round, their accuracy did not decrease. This is very disgusting.

But the question is, what happened to the first round of shooting?What did they use to increase the power of arrows and crossbows so much?Seeing that almost all the swordsmen under his command were either dead or injured, the thief general's heart was about to bleed.

Without the broadswords to break the shield, it will be very troublesome for the pikemen to advance.In order to delay the enemy, he had to let the pikemen form a formation and divide into three groups to attack the officers and soldiers. He only hoped to give the cavalry about a quarter of an hour.

"Mum, don't hurry up, I have to leave first!" The thief general looked at the other side of the river, and the smoke and dust could be seen in the distance.

Perhaps the two bandit generals didn't know it, but when the bandit cavalry troops entered within a five-kilometer range, Liu Tao 'saw' them and immediately warned them.

"The baggage trucks should be connected together immediately, and prepare for fire prevention!" Lu Yan knew what to do at this time, and immediately issued an order upon hearing this.The soldiers joining the army immediately carried out the order. On the one hand, the transportation vehicles formed a circle to guard the food and important supplies in the middle, and at the same time, the transportation soldiers quickly took the two buckets equipped with the vehicles to fetch water from the Hutuo River.

Not everyone went there, and some people took out sackcloth bags and dug soil on the ground.Water is not necessarily needed to extinguish a fire, especially a large fire. At this time, a bucket of water is not only unable to extinguish the fire, but it may have reacted with charcoal to form hydrogen and carbon monoxide, which will burn even more.

The pikemen have already formed formations in front of the vehicles. There are no swordsmen, shields or archers.Liu Tao is ready, as long as the enemy troops come, he doesn't mind casting a 'Stone Skin'.

Zhang Fei's cavalry had already started running ahead of time, and Liu Tao's 'eyes' could not make mistakes, so even if the enemy was still five miles away, they could still prepare in advance.Just a simple warm-up, some noisy dust has been seen on the horizon, and a rumbling sound is faintly heard.The sound is not dense, and the enemy army should be less than a thousand cavalry.

"Start cruising!" Zhang Fei shouted, and the cavalry began to trot.

Cavalry, especially heavy cavalry, need to adapt to a distance of about ten meters from the start of running to running at full speed.Now cruising is to warm up the horse in advance so that it can enter the state of full-speed running as soon as possible later.

The scouts sent out came back almost at this time, reporting the news that a cavalry was coming this way.Everyone is a horse, and no one has an advantage when running at full speed.When the scouts saw the cavalry, when they came back, the enemy had already appeared on the horizon.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei was ready. He waved the snake spear in his hand and pointed forward, and the soldiers rushed out in the direction he pointed.

According to Liu Tao's order, all soldiers are equipped with an extended spear, which is actually very close to the spear.This thing is usually very cumbersome to change, because there is no stirrup, and the soldiers need to hug the horse's neck to attack.The attack methods that can be chosen, unless it is heavy cavalry, are basically sabers and bows.

An excellent cavalryman in this era, among other things, besides equestrian skills, saber skills and shooting must be mastered. Training as a cavalryman is much more complicated than that of an archer.

Generals who know how to train cavalry and command cavalry generally occupy an important position in the army.

Liu Tao has stirrups here, and the soldiers wear scale armor to ensure the soldiers' ability to resist arrows to the greatest extent. At the same time, they are equipped with lances, or spears, so that they can attack the opponent one step ahead.Based on this consideration, there is no need for cavalry to master shooting skills... and there is really no time for such training.Of course, it does not rule out the subsequent formation of a cavalry archer unit.

"..." Zhang Fei looked at the opponent's troops carefully. Originally, he planned to use the tactics taught by his brother to deal with the bandit cavalry with flanking or pack of wolves tactics.

When the enemy army completely appeared on the horizon, it was discovered that the speed and equipment of this cavalry were not very good, mainly because they didn't even have spears, and it seemed that they only planned to attack with sabers.

"Ha, it seems that the Yellow Turban Bandits have not been able to train many cavalry!" Zhang Fei was overjoyed. There was no need for such an enemy army to flank, it was purely time.Flanking means attacking the enemy's side, and the opponent will obviously find out the intention of his own army. The two sides are constantly wandering, so it is very troublesome to operate.

The simplest, most direct, crudest, and most effective method is of course hedging!Zhang Fei didn't bother to play side attack or wolves at the moment, and directly ordered to charge towards the enemy at full speed.

"This Yide..." Liu Tao frowned, this guy really chose the easiest way.There is no denying that this method is simple and rude, and if the opponent does not have a carbine, it will not be a big problem.

In desperation, they can only use a 'stone skin' to improve the defense of the cavalry, hoping to reduce the damage.

"Huh?" After the magic was cast, Liu Tao realized a problem that he had paid attention to but ignored...

Chapter 101

Earlier, when Zhang Fei was besieged by the Gaosheng Department, he had added 'Storm Arrows' to the crossbowmen. After all, once he had blessed 'Qi System Understanding Ⅰ', it is said that the Storm Arrows could be attached to a large number of people.

At that time, he thought that the archers had also been attached, but who knew if he found out in the end.At that time, I thought about this issue for a while, but I didn't pay much attention to it in the follow-up. After all, I almost didn't use the Storm Arrow in the follow-up.

Now when I cast the 'Stone Skin', I discovered that the magic power of the earth system was attached to Zhang Fei, but not to the pikemen and supply troops here... let alone Guan Yu and Shangguan Yu's troops on the other side of the river.

He immediately realized the problem, this magic, does it still have a certain range limit?For example, several troops are close together, so when they are cast, everyone will add effects together.For example, the cavalry unit is now a distance away from the headquarters, so other units are not attached.

In order to prove this point, he cast 'Stone Skin' on the troops on the other side of the river. As expected, the soldiers on the headquarters side did not get any bonuses.It can be seen that the casting range still has a certain distance limit.

Come to think of it, it's actually not that weird.Before "Air Element Understanding Ⅰ" and "Earth Element Understanding Ⅰ" are clicked, the Storm Arrow and Stone Skins are single-body attachments, that is, they can only be attached to a single person.After clicking on these two skills, it can be attached to multiple objects, but obviously there is a certain distance limit.

Just like in the game, under the effect of the skill 'Comprehension of Qi System Ⅰ', the coverage area of ​​the Storm Arrow is 4×4. If the units are not too close, then there must be one or two long-range units that cannot be attached.

Even if the game becomes a reality, some basic skill rules seem to be preserved.So Zhang Fei added magic to his department, but he couldn't add magic to this department.However, Guan Yu and Shangguan Yu's two troops can attach 'stone skin' at the same time.

"It seems that it must be added in advance, otherwise it would be a waste of mana..." Liu Tao sighed, at first he released a 'Wind Dragon's Insight', then a 'Storm Arrow', and then two 'Stone Skin' ... 40 magic points, just squandered.Don't look at my 143 mana points, it's gone all of a sudden.

Speaking of both ends, Zhang Fei didn't even know that the earth magic had quietly surrounded him.Their skin became taut, forming a vague stratum corneum.This effect will last about an hour. Liu Tao calculated earlier that after an hour, the skin will return to normal.

This also means that if there is no way to end the war within an hour, that is, within two hours, he will have to add another magic spell.I vaguely feel that increasing the magic level can increase the duration of magic, but he really lacks skill points.

Seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, Zhang Fei was not only not afraid, but became excited and shouted: "Raise the gun!"

The cavalrymen raised their lances one after another, held the reins with one hand, stepped on the stirrups with both feet, bent down and lowered their heads, ready to charge.

Naturally, the enemy had noticed Zhang Fei's troops early on. The key point was that the cavalry of the officers and soldiers rushed towards them head-on.The opponent's speed was so fast that they couldn't even make a turn to avoid it.

The thief cavalry general was also distressed. He had originally thought that the officers and soldiers should have cavalry, but he didn't expect this cavalry to be so reckless.

But head-to-head, they happened to be no opponents. After all, it was not easy to train cavalry. It was hard to train thousands of soldiers who could fight on horseback. They did not practice how to use cavalry guns.If you equip it hastily, it is estimated that the fracture will be involved in the impact.

They were ordered to harass and harass if conditions permit, so as to damage the enemy's supplies to the greatest extent.If not, then understand the composition of the enemy's combat power, and then go back and report to General Digong.Fighting in war is about knowing yourself and your enemy. After fighting so many battles, Zhang Bao finally learned this concept.

Seeing the officers and soldiers approaching, the cavalry general realized that he could not change the direction easily, so he chose to charge forward bravely.So he shouted loudly: "The sky is dead, Huang Tian should stand!"
