Three Kingdoms

Chapter 714 Variations of Attack

As for the strength of Anyi's troops, Niu Fu looked down upon them at all. If Wang Yi had the courage, he would have attacked and responded to the enemy's attack long ago. As a result, there has been no movement and not even an arrow has been fired.

We should deal with this group of short-sighted guys as soon as possible. We still need to ask Wang Yi of Anyi for food and grass! Otherwise, everyone is going to drink the northwest wind tonight?

Siege is the strategy with the least cost and the greatest gain. As long as the food and grass can support it, siege is more suitable than attacking the city, because this way you can get a relatively complete city and the casualties are relatively small. At the same time, as long as there is no direct conflict. , if one side of the city surrenders, it will probably get a better treatment.

In a siege, the battle is more about the mind than patience and overall strength. Niu Fu came to Anyi to ask for food and grass, and he did not want to fight to the death. Then Anyi was desperate and burned the food and grass. So There is a limit to the siege of Anyi but there is a limit to it. If Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong in the city of Anyi, is not sensible, Niu Fu would not mind giving Wang Yi some color...

At the moment, seeing Fei Qian's battle formation struggling to hold on and teetering on the verge of collapse, wouldn't it be the best example to show Wang Yi that he broke through the formation with thunderous force?

If Wang Yi continues to disobey, the fate of Fei Qian's car formation today will be the fate of you, Wang Yi, tomorrow!

Therefore, Niu Fu simply prepared to attack from the front and flanks at the same time, using the powerful impact of the Xiliang cavalry in one fell swoop to directly break through the Fei submarine formation and end the battle!

Maybe Fei Qian can be captured in one fell swoop. It is said that there are a lot of grain and grass goods in Pingyang...

In fact, what Fei Qian and Xu Shu discussed and formulated was the oldest fish scale formation, but it was slightly mutated.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the main offensive role of the Fish Scale Formation was played by chariots. The fast-impacting chariots cut the enemy's infantry into fragmented small pieces, and then these small pieces were used between the chariots. Equipped infantry crushed

Fei Qian's chariot formation was used in reverse. It was not Fei Qian's fish scale formation that moved, but the Xiliang cattle auxiliary army. Waves of cavalry came like a tide, but they were split before the battle formation, and Unable to form a complete charge.

Fei Qian and Xu Shu, standing on the high platform, were always maintaining the balance of the entire formation, neither adding more manpower nor allowing Hu Qi to tear the formation apart...

Although the injuries to the swordsmen, shieldmen and spearmen fighting in front of the formation gradually increased, Fei Qian still endured it, because these casualties were actually bait thrown out to Niu Fu. If it was bait, If it's not crispy enough or tempting enough, how could Niu Fu be fooled?

Following Niu Fu's order, Hu Qi began to gradually organize his team, retreating to the side and making way for the middle passage.

Xu Shu happily clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Finally we are dispatched!"

When Fei Qian saw that the battlefield was finally moving in the direction he wanted, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked the flag officer to raise the flag and make corresponding troop adjustments.

As the Xiliang cavalry moved out, the ground began to tremble slightly, the sound was like muffled thunder, low and mind-shaking. This kind of vibration is obviously different from when Hu Qi is galloping. When Hu Qi's horses run, they all run according to their own rhythm. The sound of the horses' hooves is chaotic, but the sound of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry's horses' hooves is almost uniform. The same idea caused the whole earth to tremble more and more obviously, and the muffled thunder also came in waves.

Gradually, everyone on the battlefield could clearly feel the trembling of the earth, and the spear in his hand began to beat. A numb feeling spread from the palms of his hands to his shoulders, and merged with the vibrations from the soles of his feet. , rushed to the heart, rushed to the head, and turned into waves of chills. This kind of courage even slightly changed Wang Yi's face at the top of Anyi City.

"The Xiliang cavalry is coming! Pull up the iron rope quickly! Hurry!" Ling Jie, the military commander, took advantage of the gap between the Hu cavalry to retreat and ordered loudly. Ling Jie's voice was a little hoarse because of the long time of giving instructions before setting off. .

The iron cables that were originally hidden in the soil under the second row of baggage cars were straightened by the winch and rose to about one meter. This is a rather embarrassing height...

"Separate the bows and arrows to the left and right..." Commander Lingjie seized the opportunity to take off the bamboo tube from his waist, took two sips of water to moisten his dry throat, "...the crossbowmen move forward! Prepare to shoot!"

The crossbowmen who had been hiding behind Fei Qian's troops finally showed their sharp fangs. The iron crossbows designed by Fei Qian and improved by Huang's craftsmen were finally officially unveiled on the battlefield.

The rumbling Xiliang cavalry crossed the open space in front of both sides in an instant, increasing the speed of the war horses to the extreme. Like a surging flood, they rushed toward Fei Qian's battle formation overwhelmingly!

Because of the terrain, Fei Qian couldn't find a perfect position for a while. Therefore, Fei Qian's crossbowmen could not form multiple levels of strikes and could only form a formation under the cover of the sword and shield men. Queues that are slightly staggered with each other.

Almost as soon as the ready flag was raised to indicate the crossbow formation, the sound of the war drums changed and became as fast as rain. The military commander Ling Jie gave the order to fire almost at the same time as he heard the order of the war drums. Order.

Along with the change of the sound of war drums and the repeated orders from the leaders of each queue, the strong crossbowmen pulled the crossbow machine...

The first row of crossbowmen fired the crossbow bolts and immediately squatted down to open the bow. At the same time, the second row of crossbowmen fired the crossbow bolts, then the third row, the fourth row...

"jump jump jump--"

"Swish swish——"

There was a sound like frying beans, and the thirty- and fifty-forged steel sheets perfectly demonstrated their elasticity. When the crossbow arrows broke through the air under the release of the hanging knife, they screamed for flesh and blood. As if playing a variation of death, he fiercely rushed towards the Niu Fu Xiliang Cavalry!

Of course, the ones Niu Fu led were not the most powerfully equipped Flying Bear Cavalry. They were Dong Zhuo's own bodyguards. Only Dong Zhuo went out into battle with his companions by his side when he went on a personal expedition. Of course, as Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Niu Fu naturally tried his best to get closer to Dong Zhuo's Fei Xiong Army, but only the outermost cavalry were equipped with iron-clad horse armor, while the other cavalry were only wearing leather horse armor at best. .

But even so, for these cavalry wearing horse armor, the lethality of ordinary bows and arrows is basically reduced sharply, and they can basically be ignored. Therefore, this is the fundamental reason why the Xiliang cavalry traverses the Xiqiang...

However, the screams coming from the wind now made the frontline soldier commander in the huge arrow formation formed by the Xiliang knights change their expressions, and immediately let out a shrill roar:

"Raise your shield——"

Almost all the cavalrymen raised their shields in the direction of the car formation, covering their horses and their own heads...
