Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 218

The main force of Li Meng's Xiliang iron cavalry is dispatched!

For this battle situation, Li Meng has never felt such an unexpected surprise.The powerful Han army that defeated them in Chang'an back then was so vulnerable!
At this moment, Li Meng seemed to have finally realized that they were wronged when they lost.They were not lost in the hands of the Han Dynasty, but in their own hands.If Zhang Ji and others hadn't turned back, their invincible Xiliang horse would have leveled Chang'an anyway!
However, that's fine, just today, let him, Li Meng, show off the bravery and power of the Xiliang iron cavalry again!

Complacent, Li Meng desperately waved the order flag in his hand, and led his troops to charge out in the lead.After this main force finally appeared on the battlefield, the whole situation seemed to become thrilling all of a sudden.

Although the Xiliang iron cavalry rushed out of the chaotic army in the middle, but with the galloping power of their combat power, and their rapid-advance charge formation formed by directly knocking their comrades away without any regard for Pao Ze's life, it was like a rushing formation in an instant. A sharp steel knife pierced Xu Huang's rear team.

In the Huben Southern Army, only Xu Huang's personal guards were cavalry, and most of the soldiers were infantry.When the Xiliang iron cavalry had killed less than a stick of incense, they seemed to be entangled in maggots attached to the bones, unable to shake them off at all, and were beaten to the bone marrow.In an instant, Xu Huang's rear army and the Xiliang iron cavalry presented a canine-toothed battle line, and the two armies began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

The battle became extremely cruel in an instant. Every time an iron scorpion pierced out, a living body was pierced through.Every time the knife is cut, blood is sprayed out.The whistling of every sharp arrow will always make a man who was fighting hard just now fall to the ground.At this moment, human life is like a mustard, and death begins to come in large numbers.

Liu Xie, standing on the hill, clearly brought the tragic battle ahead to his eyes through the telescope.Liu Xie saw that, almost in the blink of an eye, Xu Huang's Huben Southern Army began to lose its hold!

At this moment, Liu Xie even wondered if it was a mistake to implement such a trick to lure the enemy pretending to be sophisticated!The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and countless unpredictable factors may lead to a change in a battle.Just like that, the Xiliang iron cavalry rushed out suddenly, crippling Xu Huang's rear team in an instant, and there was a tendency to turn this feigned defeat into a real defeat!

Soon, a scout came forward and reported to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, the Huben rear team has lost [-]% and the morale of the army has begun to waver!"

Liu Xie's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help showing a look of despair.Although he firmly believed that Xu Huang's ruling ability was far superior to that of Li Meng Wangfang, the current facts overturned all his previous perceptions of the Three Kingdoms.

Manpower is exhausted!

No matter how capable a person is, how can he turn the tide when the situation is chaotic and the front line is chaotic?

"Decree, two ambushes..." Liu Xie panicked and ordered the ambushes to rescue Xu Huang almost on condition that he go down to the ground.But at this moment, Ma Chao and Xun You on both sides suddenly cast their eyes on Liu Xie. Their eyes were not the same, but Liu Xie could see that there was unbelievable surprise in their eyes.

"Your Majesty, the time is not yet ripe, what are you going to do?" Xun You looked more forgiving, obviously more puzzled than surprised.

"Your Majesty, if you issue a military order indiscriminately, all previous achievements will be for naught!" Ma Chao's eyes were too cold and severe, and he seemed quite annoyed by Liu Xie's move.From the looks of it, if he hadn't been concerned about Liu Xie's identity, he would probably have scolded him.

"The Huben Southern Army is at stake. If there is no ambush at this time, do we have to wait for Gongming to be defeated?" Stared at by these two strong and powerful eyes, Liu Xie asked the two of them in a moment of confusion and anxiety. .

"Why did Your Majesty say that?" Xun You's expression became more puzzled, but after seeing Liu Xie's reaction, he finally had a glimmer of understanding: Although this emperor is a great man, he has also experienced one or two wars.But generally speaking, he played the role of the overall planner in those battles, and Liu Xie obviously hasn't fully adapted to a real command in front of the battle.

However, even though Xun You saw Liu Xie's weakness, he didn't underestimate Liu Xie at all.On the contrary, he even felt a little ashamed.Because from the Dong Zhuo Rebellion to the present, Liu Xie has been performing so well that people can't help but ignore the fact that he is actually just a 13-year-old boy.

"Your Majesty, one of the most important mentalities in making decisions before the battle is to keep in mind the old adage that 'kindness does not command soldiers'." Xun You put down the binoculars in his hand, and began to explain to Liu Xie in a very serious and serious manner as a mentor. road:

"Sun Tzu said: To use soldiers, love them like cunning children, respect them like strict teachers, and use them like soil. In a battle, human life is no longer human life. For those who command soldiers, they are just numbers. It’s just a calculation formula. Although it’s cruel, it’s an essential quality for a commander!”

"Concern leads to chaos, and chaos leads to mistakes. Your majesty is concerned with the lives of soldiers, and the ministers can understand. But if your majesty is deeply involved, you will make a big mistake because of it!" Xun You didn't have a telescope, but he still went to the battlefield confidently One finger: "Your Majesty only saw the rear troops of the Huben Southern Army being slaughtered, but did not see that the Huben Southern Army under the command of General Xu was defeated but not chaotic, and retreated with restraint. This is what is behind those blood and killings." truth."

After being reprimanded by Xun You, Liu Xie shrank his binoculars in a panic, so that his field of vision could spread to the entire battlefield.After doing this, he really found that although the Huben Southern Army seemed to be routing, the effective killing was only limited to the front line of the rear.

Under Xu Huang's command, the two wings of the Huben Southern Army were supported by thick large shield formations, firmly guarding against the raids and killings of those intruders.In the center formation, the relatively weak crossbowmen were also firmly resisted by the pikemen against the advance of the Xiliang cavalry, and occasionally a round or two of loose throws effectively delayed the sprint of the Xiliang cavalry.

In this way, although the pikemen of the rear team were almost sacrificed at a ratio of two to one, such sacrifices were exchanged for the orderly retreat of the entire army.As time began to pass, the Huben Southern Army was getting closer and closer to the pre-ambush place.

"I blamed Xu Gongming..." Seeing all this, Liu Xie suddenly seemed to have an indescribable understanding, as if his whole mind was drifting to the sky above the battlefield. with the overall situation.That mysterious feeling is imperceptible, but it really exists.

"It turns out that the ability of a general can indeed control the entire battle situation like a pillar of the sky. Only stupid generals like Li Meng Wang Fang are as deeply involved as I was just now, and have no awareness of controlling the overall situation at all. .”

At this moment, Liu Xie was in awe of the famous generals on the battlefield for the first time.

So, after that, although Liu Xie's lips became tighter and tighter, his immature face became more and more indifferent.Especially when the Huben Southern Army was about to retreat into the pre-ambush ground, Liu Xie seemed to feel no other emotions, just like a machine that harshly calculated the timing, waiting for the most mysterious and appropriate moment to come.

Finally, when Liu Xie saw that all the soldiers of the Huben Southern Army had withdrawn from the pre-ambush ground, and Li Meng's rebellious army had been dragged into two separate teams by the Huben Southern Army, Liu Xie raised his hand without hesitation. With the command flag in his hand, he shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, all the ambushes are out, and attack the bandit army!"

At this moment, the generals and soldiers of the Han army hiding behind the hill saw the scene where the Huben Southern army was slaughtered by the bandit army, and they were already so suffocated that they were about to explode, and their momentum had reached a peak.Following the waving of the bright red command flag in Liu Xie's hand, the golden drums and horns sounded loudly in unison, and countless soldiers of the Han Dynasty jumped up from the ground, clenched their weapons tightly and moved towards the enemy to encircle them.

For a moment, Li Meng and Wang Fang, who were still chasing after them, didn't know what happened. They saw the sudden hills around them, and the Han court's army descended like heavenly soldiers.In the blink of an eye, a rain of arrows like locusts swept away their Xiliang iron cavalry, and it wasn't until Wang Fang swung away the arrows in front of him that he yelled in distress, "No, we've fallen for it!" !"

Li Meng, who was behind Wang Fang, had more experience than Wang Fang after all. Hearing Wang Fang's yell, he wished he could cut down this waste for the Han family first.Are you yelling like this because you're afraid they won't know?

"Don't panic, although the Han Dynasty has tricks, but we wait for the iron cavalry from Xiliang to rule the world, where can we go?" Li Meng, a general who is not brilliant but has the ability to change, suddenly exploded with all his potential at the moment of life and death. He raised his sword and shouted: "All the soldiers listen to the order, follow me to break through and kill, let these weak Han soldiers know who is the king on the battlefield!"
