The autumn wind kills. , Kou Jianghuai, the general of Liuzhou, sat on horseback and squinted his eyes to the north.
He and Xu Longxiang once issued a military order to the Duhu Mansion, that is, before the army of Huang Song Pu advanced to the foot of Qingcang City, at least three powerful attacks were carried out against the army of the Western Front of Beimang Ten days ago, the 10,000 cavalry attack, in fact, in terms of the battle damage of the two sides, the Dragon Elephant Army, which seemed to have achieved remarkable results, did not bargain, and the 6,000 vanguard cavalry of Beimang may be regarded as the elite of the border army of the Southern Dynasty, but Liuzhou is different from the army of the western front of Beimang, and it is impossible for Beiliangdao to draw troops from elsewhere to help, that is to say, on the gambling table in Liuzhou, Kou Jianghuai only has so much silver on the table, and one less copper coin is also less, but Beimang Huang Song Pu can continuously take silver from home, and he has enough capital, It's completely possible to gamble on pleasure, and as long as you win once, you're done.
Therefore, Kou Jianghuai's previous temptation must have its deep meaning, that is, to make Huang Songpu, a veteran of Beimang's meritorious service, tighten his originally tight heartstrings, and then simply and neatly bet on a big one, and the bet was the slackness between Huang Songpu's relaxation and relaxation.
And then although the Liangzhou crossbowman is extremely powerful, it is impossible to bypass so many grass bars under the command of Huang Song Pu and spy on the specific details of the Beimang camp, Kou Jianghuai can only use the Dragon Elephant Army to obtain this military information with his life, he was ready to be rejected by Xu Longxiang and Li Mofan, but he didn't expect Xu Longxiang and Li Mofan to raise objections, and even Li Mofan, who was extremely good at military affairs, personally led 10,000 dragon elephants to rush into battle, and Kou Jianghuai said bluntly afterwards, With the rough encampment of Huang Songpu and Longguan military horses, the soldiers of the three thousand dragon elephant army died undeservedly.
At that time, Xu Longxiang was squatting next to the huge black tiger, just grinning, and didn't say anything, Li Mofan, who was covered in blood, had a somewhat gloomy face, but he didn't anger Kou Jianghuai, the general of Liuzhou.
Kou Jianghuai closed his eyes and quickly spread out in his mind the camp setting of the army on the western front of Beimang, the 150,000 army was divided into five camps, and the 30,000 pro-army of the commander Huang Songpu was camped in the center, mixed with horses.
The descendants of a certain Jiazi lord in Longguan are in a separate camp, although there are only 20,000 horses, but the combat power is not bad, they are all typical Lao Tzu soldiers of Beimang, almost everyone wears armor, and even hundreds of healthy horsemen are in armor, with the prototype of the heavy cavalry army, the key is that both maintenance and baggage are responsible for themselves, and it is undoubtedly a sharp weapon for chiseling.
Then there is the 40,000 cavalry army formed by the gathering of three B-shaped high gates, these three large battalions are located in the first line, and the last two large battalions are 40,000 soldiers and horses drawn from six or seven military towns in the border passes of the Southern Dynasties, and there is a baggage battalion that has only risen in the past 20 years in Beimang.
According to the observation of the Dragon Elephant Army of Li Mo's domain, it was roughly one hundred and twenty vans, with a total of about 800 stones of grain and grass, and the black beans supplied to the war horses were around 1,400 stones.
However, because the Beimang cavalry went south to knock on the pass and carried supplies on their own, and a large number of mares accompanied each large-scale march, the significance of the existence of this baggage battalion was only under the city of Qingcangcheng, which was far away from the border pass of the Southern Dynasty, and the army could not attack the city for a long time, so it would come in handy in case of emergency.
Historically, the grassland cavalry roamed the Central Plains frontier area, especially in autumn, there has always been a rare fatal supply problem, on the other hand, every time the Central Plains cavalry at the peak of national strength took the initiative to march north, it was necessary to rely on the strength of the whole country to support the fragile supply line, and the Central Plains monarch who really changed this embarrassing situation was the old emperor Zhao Li of Liyang, who unified the Central Plains, and his two decisions created the peak of today's Central Plains cavalry, one was to guard the country for the reason that the king should guard the country, and refused a large group of Wenchen's proposal to move the capital to Guangling Road, Continue to take Lao Tai'an City as the capital of a country, and at the same time set up a very bold national policy, spare no effort to support the border armies of the two Liao, and do not hesitate to use the huge taxes of Guangling Road and Jiangnan Province to invest in the north of Liyang Located in the northernmost part of Liyang's vast territory, the two frontier points in the east and west, both have the most elite cavalry of a country heavily guarded, plus Jizhou in the middle of the belt is sitting on natural dangers, the veteran Yang Shenxing once cultivated the Jinan infantry known as "the only one in the world", how can it be simply to compete with Beiliangyan Wenluan The reason is very simple, Jizhou border defense does not need a large number of cavalry at all, so even if Yang Shenxing has a soft spot for cavalry, he can only take advantage of the situation.
Kou Jianghuai, who closed his eyes and recuperated, subconsciously pressed his palm against the handle of the cool knife on his waist and slowly twisted it.
According to the spy report, the Beimang camp is extremely shoddy, hastily dug out three trenches around the camp, and the slender fence behind them can be said to be blown down by the wind, the hemp rope binds the wooden pole, and the knots are not exquisite at all, and the passage between the camps should be neat and solemn, and the soldiers are not allowed to walk around the camp without authorization, but the people coming and going between the five military camps are chaotic and disorderly, and there are no rules at all.
Previously, Li Mofan's hundreds of advanced elite cavalry had gone all the way to the camp of the Beimang Chinese Army less than 150 steps, and he saw with his own eyes that the left and right battalions were in a hurry, causing congestion on the camp road, chickens and dogs jumping.
Not to mention the Northern Liangbian Army, which has strict military discipline and is the best in Liyang, Kou Jianghuai thinks that the Western Chu army should do better than Beimang.
Of course, this does not mean that the combat strength of the Beimang cavalry is weak, on the contrary, it is precisely because the Beimang grassland is accustomed to the galloping of the cavalry, and it is difficult to be as memorable as the Central Plains generals for this almost cumbersome military habit in the Central Plains.
In the Central Plains, any army confronted the hundreds of thousands of iron hooves of Beimang, who could have the heart to explore the mistakes of the Beimang cavalry army camping and camping could only rely on the danger or rely on the huge city, even if they dared to go out of the city to fight, they could only rely on the heavy armor infantry to form a formation to resist the horse, and rely on dense bows and crossbows to kill and injure the enemy's horsemen.
Kou Jianghuai has worked so hard to build on a premise.
Even if the Beiliang Iron Cavalry is against the Northern Mang Cavalry with superior numbers, they dare to fight, can fight, and can fight and win Kou Jianghuai suddenly opened his eyes and sneered: "Since the beginning of the prosperity and decline of your steppe cavalry, you have constantly knocked on the north side of the pass, bullying the Central Plains for more than 400 years, and treating the big city pass as nothing, so that one comes and goes like the wind."
The 10,000 horsemen behind Kou Jianghuai began to advance forward, not in a hurry or slowly.
This 10,000 horsemen is extremely strange and majestic.
The commander of the camp of the Beimang Chinese Army, Huang Song Pu stood in armor and pressed the sword, calm and relaxed, looking at the dozen or so commanders with a disparity in age in the tent, not only the henchmen who had been raised by themselves, but also the words of several wealthy families in Longguan of the Southern Dynasty, as well as the young and strong generals with simple backgrounds who climbed to the current high position with their military exploits.
Huang Songpu said in a deep voice: "This time, the 30,000 dragon elephant army in Liuzhou has appeared, probably knowing that they can't hold Qingcang City, and they are unwilling to expose the Qingyuan military town at the west gate of Liangzhou to our noses, so they want to make a desperate bet, but it also saves trouble, everyone is experienced in a hundred battles, and there is no need for this general to nag those trivialities, just remember one thing, our troops occupy an absolute advantage, then we must make good use of it, except for the rear baggage battalion, the remaining four battalions, after quickly pulling out the camp, the cavalry formation must not be stretched too long, be sure to respond to each other, We must not rush in without authorization, we will hit Liuzhou this time, and the Taiping Order will give four words, and a small loss will win" Huang Songpu looked at everyone, and then hugged his fist to the north and said: "Everyone, I Huang Songpu is close to ancient times, even the king of the Southern Courtyard resigned, if it weren't for the unfavorable war, I wouldn't be here today, I have nothing to ask for in this life, but among you, the oldest is only fifty, and the person with the highest official quality is only the one who has the greatest merit after the Southern Dynasty Zhengsanpin defeated Liuzhou, and no matter how Your Majesty rewards, my title of general of Huang Songpu, please take it first."
Everyone in the tent suddenly looked excited.
Resting in the Central Plains, the emergency mobilization of hundreds of thousands of troops is by no means capable of going into battle in a moment and a half.
But the Northern Mang cavalry was different, when those ten thousand captains hurriedly returned to the camp, the four large camps, the huge horn sounded melodiously.
It's just that because the appearance of 30,000 Liuzhou elite cavalry is too unbelievable, and the speed of the breakthrough is too fast, the deployment of the three battalions in front is still slightly lagging behind, and a little opportunity has been lost to a certain extent.
The cavalry charge, the tremendous penetrating force brought by the weight and galloping speed of the horses, and the terrifying penetrating force brought by the sword and iron spear in the hands of the cavalry, all took a considerable distance to brew.
Even further, when both sides have enough time to charge, if one side can start the collision formation at the peak of the momentum, and the other side will suffer a big loss if the other side is slightly exhausted because of the excessive force.
The level of combat power between the battalions can be seen at a glance at this moment.
Huang Songpu's pro-army elite cavalry was rectified as soon as possible, and layers of fronts were spread out in turn at the front of the middle road.
The soldiers and horses of the first-class tyrant in Longguan followed, but hundreds of horsemen with equipment that could be called the first-class elite of heavy horses did not show up.
Several of the cavalry troops gathered together from the B-shaped high gate of the Southern Dynasty were in chaos, although there was no fear of war, but the war was imminent, and this kind of chaotic spirit could easily affect the pace of the war horse.
The reason why the cavalry is a cavalry.
War horses are crucial For the Northern Mang Cavalry with sloppy military discipline, Chen Zhibao, the former protector of Beiliang, has always been ridiculed as a "foot soldier on horseback" And in Beiliang, every war horse, every cool knife, and every spear seem to be infused with the old rules that Xu Xiao has accumulated all his life.
On the battlefield, no matter how much merit there is, no matter how much seniority the military generals are, they are not allowed to use halberds and horses without authorization, they are not allowed to wear gold and silver armor without authorization, and they are not allowed to be alone in front of the front line A vast expanse of yellow sand as far as the eye can see.
The Beiliang Iron Riding is like a tide on the first line of the Guangling River, surging and progressing.
Huang Songpu, who had already put on his armor and mounted his horse, looked into the distance, clenched the iron spear in his hand, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there were still 400 grass bars scattered around the perimeter, otherwise once this Liuzhou cavalry quietly broke forward for three miles, I am afraid they would not have such a good chance to get out of the camp and line up, and perhaps there would be thousands of casualties among the cavalry.
Huang Songpu turned his head and glanced at it.
The current situation is acceptable, although it is still a little hasty, especially the cavalry on the right wing is difficult to keep up with the middle army and the left wing, but the Beimang cavalry has always had a tradition, 30,000 cavalry into an army, that is, on the battlefield, three commanders led 30,000 cavalry troops, after forming a main force in the field, it is enough to deal with all emergencies.
In Huang Songpu's view, both have reached the extreme of their respective combat strength, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior on the battlefield, just look at the speed of the response of each general Huang Songpu raised the iron spear high, clamped the horse's belly, and roared angrily: "Sons, follow me to break through Liuzhou and enter Liangzhou."
The general Huang Songpu took the lead.
All the battalions of the army on the Western Front of Beimang are all the commanders, thousands, and centurions. is not afraid of death, which is by no means unique to Beiliang In Beimang's eyes, it seems that the soldiers and horses of Liyang in the Central Plains, which are far away in the sky, are not a thing at all, and only the Beiliang border army in front of them is worthy of fighting with my Beimang Iron Cavalry In the first Liangmang battle, most of them were siege battles, and Beimang did break through Liangzhou Hutou City, Youzhou Wogong City and Luanhe City.
The main forces of the cavalry on both sides of Liang Mang will probably feel that they are not hearty enough.

Then the second reckless battle.
Starting from the Miyun Pass in the Western Regions, to the current Liuzhou, as well as the hinterland of the Southern Dynasties, and then to the future Liangzhou Pass.
The cavalry does not stop Both sides of the enemy, vigorously, and immediately:
