Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 712 Events before the war 2
Just as the Northern Xinjiang Army and the Xianbei Army were confronting each other and preparing for a big battle, another cavalry appeared on the grassland where the two armies camped.At a place more than 200 miles east of the Xianbei army camp, a cavalry force of about 3 people was rushing towards this side.

"Did you find out where this cavalry came from?" Ke Bi Neng asked everyone in the big tent, but until now, he didn't even know which faction the cavalry that suddenly appeared belonged to.

"In my opinion, there is no need to ask." The man in black shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The lord sent more than [-] cavalry to contain Yan Liang's army before. At this moment, there is such a cavalry coming from the east. It seems that the lord The more than [-] cavalry that were arranged were either held back or wiped out."

"It's possible to be held back." Ke Bi Neng nodded and replied: "But if it is said to be wiped out, it is absolutely impossible, unless Yan Liang has more than 20 adults in his hands, otherwise how can he get it in such a short period of time? Send me one hundred thousand Xianbei cavalry.

Presumably, Yan Liang also considered the urgency of the war here, and Gongsun Xu didn't have many soldiers and horses, so he came up with this strange move and sent 3 cavalry to detour. Hmph, it's only 3 people, what effect can it have? , I don't believe that Gongsun Xu can make money with [-] people. "

"No matter what, we must deal with it carefully." The man in black replied: "Our previous plan has been implemented, and the day after tomorrow is the day of the battle with the Northern Xinjiang Army. We must not let these 3 people delay our major event. In my opinion, the lord might as well send 3 troops to block the [-] horses, and keep them from approaching within a hundred miles of our army."

"Okay, everything is focused on defeating the northern army." Ke Bineng immediately ordered troops to block the sudden appearance of [-] cavalry, and at the same time discussed with the generals in the camp about the battle the day after tomorrow.

Last time, Ke Bineng discussed with the man in black about the plan to let the leader lure Gongsun Xu to send troops. As a result, Gongsun Xu sent someone to contact the leader. Maybe the leader's honesty deceived the person, but after Gongsun Xu hesitated again and again Still decided to make an appointment with the Xianbei Army to test the opponent's reaction.

How could Ke Bineng let go of the chance of a head-on confrontation? He immediately summoned the tribal leaders to prepare to send troops. This time, Gongsun Xu will dispatch an army of 15 to 20. Considering the elite level of the Northern Border Army On top of the Xianbei army, Kebi can decide to send more than 25 troops, so that it is possible to suppress the northern army.

"The location of the battle is on the grassland fifty miles away from the camps of both sides." The man in black pointed to a circle on the map and said: "This is a plain, there are no mountains and rivers for ambush, it is the perfect place for a big battle.

I think everyone knows the elite of the Northern Xinjiang Army, so it is the minimum requirement for our army to dispatch 25 people.Leave 10 people to defend the camp to prevent sneak attacks by the northern Xinjiang army, and send another 5 people to stop the sudden appearance of [-] cavalry. This is the overall layout of our army. Can. "

"Our army's soldiers and horses must be above the Northern Xinjiang Army." Ke Bineng said: "Listening to the tone of the gentleman, it seems that he doesn't believe in our army of 25. Sir, the number of the Northern Xinjiang Army may be ten times less than ours. Isn't our advantage obvious enough?"

"The Chosen Front Army is known as the number one army in the world." The man in black replied: "The 3 Chosen Front Army is one of a hundred warriors. With these 15 people, it is equivalent to our army of 8000 troops. The Huben Army Bloodthirsty and invincible, although there are only [-] people, if all of them are dispatched, our army may have to mobilize several times to resist.

The rest of the elite of the Northern Border Army, such as the camp, the Sirius Army, etc., which army is not the elite who survived the battle after a long battle, and the waves washed the sand. Moreover, the equipment of the Northern Border Army is far superior to our army. It has increased the strength between the two armies, so even if our army has 10 more horses, it may not necessarily have any advantage.

Of course, if Gongsun Xu didn't come here with the determination to fight to the death, then we don't have to be afraid of anything. The selection of the forward army is Gongsun Xu's trump card, and he will definitely not dispatch unless it is absolutely necessary.The responsibility of the Huben army is to protect the safety of Gongsun Xu, and it will not be dispatched until the time of the decisive battle. Therefore, we only need to deal with the rest of Gongsun Xu's troops. At that time, he might not lose to Gongsun Xu. "

The analysis of the man in black is very reasonable, and he immediately revealed the advantages and disadvantages of both sides. On the battlefield, Ke Bineng can also seek advantages and avoid disadvantages according to the actual situation, and adjust the strategy according to the situation.

In the Northern Xinjiang military camp, Gongsun Xu was anxiously discussing the matter of the war.

"This battle is about the survival of our army, everyone should fight to the death and never retreat." Gongsun Xu looked at the crowd and said, "The enemy's forces are superior, so this time I decided to send an army of 15 to fight against the enemy.

Zhengfang, you command the [-] infantry to protect the commander-in-chief. At that time, the main army will rely on you to defend.All the selected vanguard troops will go out with me, and the Sirius Army and the rest of the elite cavalry, a total of [-] cavalry, will be divided into left and right armies to protect the left and right wings of the army.

Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Gongsun Yuan, Hua Xiong, Yan Xing, and others are all on standby. In addition, when the army goes to battle, the camp is the most important thing, so Feng Xiao left the matter of dispatching the camp and guarding the camp. I will leave the task of battalion to you, Wen You will fight with me, there will definitely be a time for you to play. "

"Promise." All the generals stepped forward to take orders. Gongsun Xu has declared that this battle is a battle of life and death. In other words, this battle will determine the outcome of the two sides. If he had the upper hand, he would probably lead his troops south and retreat to the Great Wall, but if Gongsun Xu defeated the Xianbei army, there would be no shadow of foreign cavalry in the Wanli Grassland.

More than 200 miles away, the 3 cavalry was riding forward. During the march, the overall formation of the army was not chaotic. Just from this point, we know that the 3 cavalry is a rare elite.

There is a yellow character written on the commander's flag of the Chinese army. The commander of the army is a middle-aged general. This person is Huang Zhong, who has been known as the bravest in northern Xinjiang these years.Perhaps the Xianbei army still doesn't understand why these 3 horses suddenly appeared here, but the Xianbei army already knew the danger was coming, so they sent [-] cavalry to stop the [-] cavalry.

"Command the forward to set up camp on the spot." Seeing that it was getting dark, Huang Zhong gave the order to set up camp. The rapid march during the day did not make the soldiers feel tired, and this elite army immediately searched for nearby food boxes to camp.

"Report,,,,,,," Huang Xu rode over to report: "General, General Gan Ning, the forward, sent someone to deliver a letter."

"Bring it."

After reading the letter, Huang Zhong sneered and said, "Well done, hum, it's only 5 people, so I'm not welcome."

A big war is about to break out, and the birds and beasts on the grassland seem to feel the murderous aura before the coming war, and the animals within a hundred miles will automatically migrate away.

When it was time for the battle, the armies of both sides, with a total of 40 troops, were dispatched, and each formed a formation on the grassland to prepare for the duel.

The Northern Xinjiang Army still used the armored chariot formation as the central army. Gao Shun commanded [-] infantry to form a defensive formation, with [-] cavalry guarding the two wings of the chariot formation on each side. On the periphery of the car formation, they seem to be looking for the best time to fight.

Zhang Fei led [-] elite troops to line up behind the chariot formation, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were also on standby as a reserve team.Due to the large number of soldiers and horses on both sides and the long distance, it is impossible for the Xianbei Army to see the situation behind the Northern Army's chariot formation. Therefore, their understanding of the formation of the Northern Army's side is only limited to the chariots. array of impressions.

Due to the large number of soldiers and horses, after the armies of both sides lined up, there were shadows of flags and banners for dozens of miles around here. It is no wonder that hundreds of thousands of troops lined up for a duel at the same time, and the battle line has been dragged to nearly [-] miles before the battle started After all, both sides are cavalry and need more room for detours. This is why the two sides chose the decisive battle location on the grassland fifty miles away from the camp.

Without too many words, and without the imaginary battle of generals, the Xianbei army was ready to charge as soon as they came up.Originally, in this kind of confrontation between large armies, the two sides could boost the morale of their own side through fighting generals and fighting formations, but the Xianbei army is very clear. Frustrating all the warriors of the Xianbei Army, in terms of battle formation, whether it is cavalry or infantry, the most elite troops of the Xianbei Army cannot compare with the frontline army and the trapped camp.

"Sir, don't you really plan to fight generals?" Kebi Neng looked at the running army and asked, "According to my grassland tradition, you must fight generals before a big battle. The Longevity will take care of us. We,,,,,,"

"If you want your morale to plummet, you should fight bravely." The man in black interrupted Ke Bineng and said, "Leader, I respect your opinion and understand your painstaking efforts, but you have to be clear, Beijiang Of those fierce generals in the army, none of them killed thousands of enemies by thousands of people. No matter how many warriors you send up, you will still be courting death.

Since the lord has decided to let me command this battle, please wait and see, the lord, the advantage of our army is that it has more troops than the opponent, and the weakness of our army is that the overall elite level is lower than that of the opponent.There is a saying in the art of war that it is not more expensive but more expensive.The key lies in how to use it. On the surface, our army seems to have an advantage in strength, but if we do not deal with it carefully, this may also become a major weakness of our army. Therefore, we must start from our own advantages from the very beginning . "

"I hope you can disrupt Gongsun Xu's arrangement with an army of [-]." Ke Bi Neng nodded and said, "When the two sides are in a stalemate, my trump card will probably appear, and it will definitely distract Gongsun Xu. At that time, I hope you can seize the opportunity and defeat the enemy army in one fell swoop."

"Don't worry." The man in black said with a smile: "Gongsun Xu still doesn't know that his wife's body is in our hands. We don't need to use this trick until the critical moment. It is rumored that Gongsun Xu values ​​love and righteousness, hum Hmph, when he saw his wife's body, I wonder if he can still command the army calmly?"
