Guanqiu Jian was less than twenty years old, but he showed all the abilities of a famous general.
He is calm and decisive, good at training soldiers and horses, and good at fighting infantry and cavalry together.
But currently, what he is best at is training infantry.
When Zhao Yandu's Seventh Army conquered Shiyang, Dangyang and other places, the infantry under Guanqiu Jian's command was very powerful. They marched step by step wherever they went. Once the battle formation was formed, it was difficult to shake.
Today, the two thousand men under Guan Qiu Jian are all soldiers and horses trained by himself.
Cheng Pu's charge took too long, and Guan Qiujian had already arranged for the two thousand men to form a formation.
It was still unimaginable in this era to use the same number of infantry against cavalry, but Guanqiu Jian did it.
The troops under his command made full use of the battle formation. After meeting Cao Wu again in the south of Jingzhou, Guanqiu Jian heard many unheard infantry tactics from Cao Wu. Combining what he had learned, the battle formation was improved. There is diligence.
Today, Cheng Pu broke through the formation and entered. When he reached this point, he was already at the end of his strength, so Guanqiu Jian's soldiers blocked him like a mountain.
If the tactics used by Li Dian to block Pan Zhang and Lu Fan were a quagmire, then Guan Qiujian's battle formation was the real Mount Tai.
Cheng Pu only felt as if his soldiers had really hit the mountain. It was clear that the opponent had no fortifications, but they could not attack it.
Cao Wu and Diao Chan watched carefully on the mountain. In fact, Guanqiu Jian was able to achieve this step only by relying on the long-term training of the soldiers in the battle formation, using the combination of multiple arms, and taking into account the replacement of positions, to achieve this effect. .
It sounds simple to say, but to truly achieve this, there were only two to three thousand people under Guanqiu Jian in the entire era.
Cheng Pu rushed to kill him several times, but he couldn't get through at all. His expression changed from contempt at the beginning, to shock, and then to wavering.
"who are you!"
Cheng Pu pointed at Guanqiu Jian who was standing in the middle of the infantry formation and shouted angrily.
A new generation general like Guan Qiujian did not have the habit of announcing his name, nor did he like to talk to the other generals. He just commanded the battle formation to function step by step.
"Kill, kill!"
The governor of Jiangdong You was naturally unwilling to give in. He led his troops to charge left and right, but they couldn't get through.
At this moment, there was a sudden explosion behind him.
"Wei Wenchang is back!"
Cheng Pu turned around in shock and saw Wei Yan, covered in blood, like a murderous god from hell, leading dozens of cavalry to his rear.
Cheng Pu quickly ordered the cavalry to return for reinforcements.
He was not worried about Wei Yan's cavalry causing trouble, but he was worried that Wei Yan's return would affect the morale of his soldiers.
Wei Yan chuckled, and he fought from the outermost level to the innermost level of the battlefield. God knows how many Jiangdong cavalry he killed.
From the beginning, more than a thousand Cangwu cavalry followed, to now only a few dozen. His men did suffer heavy losses, but he could ensure that Jiangdong's losses would also be heavy.
By the standards of the Cangwu Cavalry, which was experiencing a large-scale battle for the first time, it could be considered a great victory to reach this point.
Wei Yan glanced at Cao Wu on the hillside. He was very capable but also very utilitarian. When he was sure that Cao Wu could see him, he spat out a mouthful of blood, held a long knife, and charged into Cheng Pu's army.
Cheng Pu regretted a little. It might have been better if he had not divided his troops, but had passed through Cao's army and cut off Cao's army layer by layer like a knife.
But now there was no time to regret it. Cheng Pu could not break through Guanqiu Jian's defense. After thinking about it, he became jealous and gritted his teeth and said: "Split the troops!"
The troops were divided again, but this time, instead of leaving a thousand people behind, the vast majority were left behind.
Only a hundred of the most elite cavalry left with him.
Cheng Pu fought all his life and became a talented man who could command the army. He relied on his bravery and ability. Although he was old, he had never served anyone.
Today, he surrendered to the young general who ignored him, but he had to complete his pre-war goal of killing Cao Wu.
"This Cao is so innocent, even if I take my life, I have to die in exchange for him!"
Cheng Pu tore off a piece of white cloth, tied the bone-deep wound on his forehead, and shouted: "Kill!"
A death squad consisting of more than a hundred cavalry responded immediately and followed him around Guanqiu Jian's troops.
Of course Guanqiu Jian saw all this in the formation and immediately ordered his soldiers to stop them.
Wei Yan also saw it from behind and tried desperately to stop him.
But Cheng Pu rushed forward without fear of his life. Among the hundreds of cavalrymen who rushed up the hill, there were still more than ten of them.
Cheng Pu led more than ten people to charge like this. The mountain was not high, and they quickly reached the halfway point of the mountain.
Then, Cheng Pu saw the guards behind Cao Wu and each took out a long iron pipe.
"boom!"
I don’t know which guard made the move first, and then the sound of “bang bang” could be heard endlessly.
Cheng Pu looked around and saw that the cavalry around him fell one by one.
There were no bows, arrows, or hidden weapons. The thing in Cao Wu's guard's hand seemed to have a magical power, directly harvesting fresh lives one by one.
Cheng Pu was shocked, and the cavalrymen next to him were also shocked. One cavalryman was so shocked that he couldn't even control his horse and fell off his horse. His life or death was unknown.
The situation of the other cavalry was not much better. The loud noise scared the horses' eyes and made them run wildly in different directions.
Cheng Pu relied on his strong perseverance and excellent riding skills to control his horse and continue to charge.
Of the four thousand cavalrymen from Jiangdong, Cao Wu was the only one who rushed in front of him.
"Ah! Ah!"
Cheng Pu was furious, waving his sword and staring at Cao Wu with his red eyes.
Cao Wu was not in a hurry, and without even getting up, he took out a long tube and pointed it at him.
Diao Chan behind him also took out a pipe and aimed at Cheng Pu.
"boom!"
The last sound Cheng Pu heard before he died was Cao Wu's sigh: "I clearly aimed at the chest, but I hit the head. The iron barrel gun's hit was really bad."
This was the first time Cheng Pu heard Cao Wu speak since Chai Sang, and it was also the last time.
In Chaisang, Cao Wu angrily scolded the rats from Jiangdong, making Cheng Pu angry. However, by the Bai Teng River, Cheng Pu didn't even understand what Cao Wu was talking about.
The right governor of Jiangdong died.
Jiang Biao's twelve tiger ministers are missing one more.
Cao Wu finally stood up and threw the iron barrel gun to the ground.
Zhang He and Wei Yan, a defense line composed of famous generals, were his first trump card.
Cheng Pu is very strong and he broke this trump card.
Guanqiu Jian, a new generation of famous generals, is the second trump card.
Cheng Pu also came around.
But Cheng Pu never dreamed that he would die under Cao Wu's new weapon.
Although this weapon has poor aiming, it is very effective in hitting horses.
The cavalry horses were most afraid of sounds such as fire and strange noises. Now, Cao Wu took advantage of this matter.
The soldiers behind him came from Beifu and had experience on the battlefield. They were able to fire the shot without changing their expression when facing the cavalry's charge.
What happened after that was that the bullet was left to its fate.
Obviously, Cao Wu was very lucky today.
This is the third trump card.
However, Cao Wu didn't know that this was the second Jiang Biaohu minister who died under new weapons today.
Cheng Pu died, and the four thousand cavalrymen turned into turtles in an urn.
…
On the river, Zhou Yu closed his eyes. Despite his command, he was finally moved by Cheng Pu's death.
After a few breaths, he opened his eyes, and his eyes became clear again.
"Fire the trumpet arrow!"
Fire trumpet arrows to call out another ambush.
This is Zhou Yu's response.
