"Pengju, Zhongqing, just try to provoke Yelu Abaoji to fight Temujin. If the remaining forces don't take the initiative to provoke us, just ignore them for the time being." Li Xiang did not forget to remind him at the end. road.
"General, take your orders!" These two people are not stupid. When Li Xiang said this, he also understood the intention behind Li Xiang.
Now, the two foreign forces bordering Li Xiang are Temujin and Yelu Abaoji. It is understandable to deal with the threats related to themselves first. Yue Fei and Wei Qing also understood Li Xiang's approach.
After all, if we do this this time, we can take care of Yelu Abaoji and Temujin, and their north will be more stable in the future.
Of course, besides Yue Fei and Wei Qing thinking of this reason, Li Xiang still had other reasons.
The three forces of Li Shimin, Nurhachi and Tuoba Tao threatened Youzhou. Why did he work for Qin Zheng and Liu Bang when he had nothing to do?
Anyway, with Qin Zheng and Liu Bang here, the three forces of Li Shimin, Nurhachi and Tuoba Tao may not have much chance of breaking into Youzhou. These three foreign forces can also slow down the development of Qin Zheng and Liu Bang.
Qin Shihuang and Han Gaozu, these two are among the best in the profession of emperor. It is naturally good for Li Xiang that they are more troublesome!
"Forward troops line up, shield formation and gun forest ready!" Following Yue Fei's order, messengers immediately spread Yue Fei's orders to all parts of the army.
"Ding, the second effect of Yue Fei Wumu's skill is activated. When facing the same race, the commander will be +1. When facing the alien race, the commander will be +3. Currently, when facing the alien race, the commander will be +3. The basic commander is 103. The current commander has increased to 106. "
"drink!"
The officers and soldiers of the front army shouted at the same time, and their spears moved forward, forming a black spearhead.
And where other princes were, they also began to make various preparations.
The Soldier Saint Sun Wu is worthy of being the Soldier Saint Sun Wu, a man with full basic command. The second alliance of princes brought together a total of nineteen princes, but due to various reasons, no suitable alliance leader was selected. It would naturally be impossible for the troops under everyone's command to fight independently like this.
If they really dared to do this, half of the battle would have been lost before it was even fought. This would be tantamount to giving every opportunity to defeat them directly to the enemy.
But at this time, Sun Wu, the sage of war, stood up and provided a suitable solution to this matter, or in other words, provided a lost military formation.
According to Sun Wu's military formation, although the armies seem to be fighting independently, they can support each other in the shortest time. If the grassland forces dare to stare at one of the men and horses and bite and beat them, they will easily be surrounded by several surrounding princes and forces.
Of course, among the 19 princes present, some princes are strong and have many soldiers and horses, while some princes will bring relatively fewer soldiers and horses this time. In order to maintain the balance of the formation at this time, it is necessary to have many soldiers and horses. It is inevitable for princes to support some princes with few soldiers and some soldiers.
Although some princes were unhappy with this, they didn't want to lose the battle and couldn't think of any other good way, so they had no choice but to admit it.
"Pishi Army, charge!" With a loud shout, the grassland forces finally charged forward.
In history, the formation of the Pishi Army can be traced back to the period when Yelu Abaoji, Taizu of the Liao Dynasty, unified the Khitan. Around AD 907, Yelu Abaoji formed a bodyguard called the "Hexin Department". "History of the Liao Dynasty - Baiguan Zhi 2" records: "In the beginning, Taizu used the camp as a palace, selected more than a thousand powerful people from various tribes, and placed them as the heart and heart."
Since this inner circle can serve as the bodyguards of Yelu Abaoji, their combat effectiveness is undoubtedly unquestionable. Among all the Liao armies, they are definitely the elite.
By 913 AD, this small-scale army was renamed the "Pishi Army" and was commanded by Yelu Laogu, Yelu Abaoji's confidant. In addition to protecting the emperor's safety, the Dazhupishi Army also accompanied the emperor in many battles.
"History of Liao: Biography of Yelu Laogu" records that Yelu Laogu, the first commander of the Dazhangpishi Army, led the Dazhangpishi Army to participate in the invasion of Yanzhao and was killed in the battle.
Another example is that Youpishi Xiangwen Yelu Shuo also accompanied Yelu Abaoji to conquer the Bohai Sea in ancient times. With the formal formation of the Da Zhang Pi Shi Army, its size has gradually become clear, with the total number being approximately 30,000.
The members of the Pishi Army are all elite warriors from various tribes and soldiers, and they are knights wearing fine armor. Moreover, they are all equipped with scimitars and crossbows, and at their feet are the best horses from Daliao. Because of such sophisticated equipment, the Pishi Army is able to roam the battlefield and be invincible.
However, as the Liao Kingdom's foreign wars became more and more frequent, the Dazhangpishi Army gradually changed from a simple function of guarding and following the emperor to participate in the war, into a field force that could independently participate in the war, and finally even grew to 300,000. The power of people.
However, although the number of people has expanded horribly, the individual combat effectiveness is naturally inferior to that of the original one.
Now, the opponent Li Xiang has to face is the Three Kingdoms version of the Leshi Army formed by Yelu Abao's crew.
"Archers prepare!"
"Let go!" Yue Fei looked at the army in the distance. His military sensitivity made him feel the difference in this army for the first time, and he immediately issued the order.
"咻咻咻..." The sound of flying bows and arrows filled the sky.
"Come on!" Yelu Xiezhen shouted angrily.
Yelu Xiezhen was a famous general and military strategist in the mid-Liao Dynasty. He defeated the Song army many times. He ambushed the troops at the key pass of Yuzhou and ordered the defenders to come out to meet them. They attacked from both sides and defeated the Song army, defeating Yuzhou and Feihu. Later, I heard that the deputy commander of the West Road of the Song Dynasty had deployed Yang Ye to lead his troops. He sent his deputy Xiao Talin to ambush in the south of Shuozhou, luring the Song army into an ambush, and defeated Yang Ye's troops, and captured Yang Ye at Chenjiagukou.
He and Brother Yelvxiu were two generals that Empress Dowager Xiao relied on very much. One was named the King of the South Courtyard and captured Yang Ye, the "Undefeated General" of the Song Dynasty alive; the other was named "Greater than Yue" and was a war god of the Liao Dynasty. general.
"boom!"
Tens of thousands of cavalry braved the rain of arrows and charged. Although they suffered some losses, fortunately they still charged forward.
Thousands of spears formed a forest of spears, piercing the bodies of the enemy's horses one by one, but the charge of the iron cavalry was naturally impossible to block so easily.
"Boom!" The layers of shield formations were forcibly broken open, and countless cavalry rushed in through the opened gaps. Many soldiers in Li Xiang's army were killed by the iron hoof of the grassland forces. under.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Wei Qing, who had just arrived at the former army to take over command, couldn't help but frown.
