Chapter five hundred and seventieth sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight
I see how capable you are. No matter how long you have planned to fight, whether you are planning thousands of miles away or the delay of the enemy's advance, Sima Ji often thinks about taking a strong attack and trying the opponent's level. This has already started to bully Linyi natives many years ago.
As long as Sima Ji finds that he can beat the opponent head-on, he doesn't need any strategy. The first choice is always to eat the opponent raw. No matter how high the command level or how adaptable the performance is on the spot, but if his subordinates are full of mobs, everything will be lost. He will choose whatever the most effective way of playing is.
The strong attack and hard battles are the fastest to take effect, so how many people will die will not be considered by him. He did not think that Sima Ying's subordinates had been much stronger than him after many years of joining the army. To be honest, for ordinary generals of non-vassal king level, their command was very limited, and the dispatch of more than 10,000 people was considered a big scene. Such a huge battlefield was actually the first time for both sides.
Tens of thousands of cavalry rushed forward, and Sima Ji had to admit that he liked the head-on mutual harm. If his subordinates had not had their full protection, then every battle would be enough to let the blood of both sides. This stupidest but fastest-effect method was very stupid, but the King of Yan had always enjoyed it. When was the fortune teller of cannon fodder? The King of Yan, who was born in feudal lords, would not be as politically incorrect as these problems.
On Mr. Chen's side, teams of infantry in leather armor moved forward as they followed the rumbling war drums. With each move, the entire ground could clearly feel shaking. Holding a long spear shield in his hand, he was like a huge hedgehog.
On both sides of the infantry were light cavalry guards, slowly following up. Behind the infantry were rows of archers. Their arrows were already on the string and pointed diagonally ahead. Clusters of cold arrows reflected a faint cold light, ready to cover the soon-to-appearing enemy.
This army of more than 40,000 people slowly moved forward but was full of caution. The surrounding horses kept shouting back and forth to aggravate the solemn atmosphere. They had not seen the enemy's appearance, but the faint sound of horse hooves in their ears reminded them that this might be a lineup they had never seen before.
Of course, they had never seen such a large cavalry appear on a battlefield. Sima Ji was ready to separate the troops of the Tuoba Yuwen family and the Duan Murong family. Before he had time to discuss with several leaders, he had already met the front army leaving Hulao Pass. It can only be said that it was a coincidence, it was such a coincidence.
This place is still open, so what nonsense is there? I have the advantage of cavalry fighting infantry, so how can I beat you to me if I force myself? Although Sima Ji only had a thousand cavalry following him, he also followed the Xianbei soldiers to the front line. However, his confidant was not so arrogant. He had already changed his very festive clothes in Yecheng and returned to the low-key period of Youzhou. As long as he stripped off his armor, he was dressed in a standard farmer.
Let me pass the order! Let me prepare for the 10,000 elite boys of my king. Sima Ji, who was ready to sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, ordered in Xianbei language that the thousand cavalry he brought with him could also speak Xianbei language. Youzhou, it would not be difficult to find soldiers who could speak Xianbei language.
Warriors, rush for me! Murong Ling Duan Wuchen and others ordered that this was also the first battle after entering the Jin Dynasty. If everything went well, the King of Yan could look at him differently, and the matter of becoming the king would naturally have a good start. If this battle was embarrassing, it would add a lot of twists and turns in the future.
Therefore, they also attach great importance to the outcome of today's battle. Whether there can be a good start depends on what kind of results can be achieved today. Just as they were sending orders to the Xianbei nobles one after another, Sima Ji had already taken his thousand-man cavalry to another open and easy to retreat to stand by.
The King of Yan was also prepared. What were the Xianbei people? At least they were still aliens. What was the main force of Sima Ying's front army? At least they were still the enemy now. He would be happy to see what happened and was ready to retreat.
The arrows were shot! The sound of trembling bowstrings sounded, and countless feather arrows flew out from Sima Ying's front army camp, blocking the entire sunlight by half. Facing the dense arrowheads flying in the sky, the Xianbei cavalry who were slamming the horses ignored them at all. They did not have the plate armor protection on the two aces of Yan King, but this charge perfectly reflected Sima Ji's vision.
The battlefield is wide and there are more cavalry than enemy infantry, so they will surround them all. Even if the casualties are greater at the beginning, they can be sustained. Sure enough, when most of the arrow clusters were fired, the Xianbei cavalry had turned their horses and according to the instructions of the nobles of the headquarters, each army occupied one direction and circled around General Chen's front army, which made the arrow rains of this round have little effect.
Pu, Pu, Pu. The sound of arrows entering the flesh came, and some Xianbei cavalry were still affected by dense arrows and finally suffered major losses. Nearly a hundred cavalry fell down, their blood flowed out and penetrated into the land. However, compared with the scale of more than 100,000, this is really a painless loss.
Compared to Sima Ji, who only knows such violent fighting styles in front of war, Murong Jie and his men are obviously much more expert. The Xianbei cavalry is superb and can also do such commands as finger-arms.
As a child of the grassland, you can also take a look. Sizhou's environment does not restrict the performance of cavalry, but it is far less than that of the grassland. If you encounter such a group of cavalry on the grassland, it would be really disgusting to fight and run. Sima Ji saw this scene with a telescope, so he opened his mouth to remind his guards.
In a blink of an eye, the vanguard who was invested in Hulao Pass was treated by three sides. Just looking at the Hu cavalry everywhere around, the psychological pressure on many soldiers had increased dramatically. The small advantage she had previously occupied disappeared without a trace. If you want to compete with the cavalry, you are still not the director of the infantry army.
Kill! The Xianbei cavalry outside the range of the bow and arrow finally couldn't hold back and started the siege of General Chen's former army. The dense cavalry opened its formation and advanced at the same time, just like a thick city wall was advancing. Of course, they were also covered by archers here. However, this time the archers needed to take care of three directions, and their power was obviously not as powerful as the last time.
