The White Horse Raids the Three Kingdoms

However, this may be related to the living environment of Xianbei, and it is also common to all nomadic peoples.

They are like a pack of wolves, extremely sticky and vengeful.

In the harsh environment of the vast grassland, they need a tough and bloodthirsty nature to lead them to survive. This is the tragedy of nomads.

When there is a contradiction between survival and morality, they choose survival.

However, this is also the reason why the nomads are strong and good at fighting. The trials at the cost of blood will definitely select the most powerful combat power for them.

At least, when they turned against each other, Gongsun Zan's subordinates suffered another small loss.

According to "Six Secret Teachings", King Wu of the former Zhou Dynasty asked Jiang Taigong about the strategy of fighting cavalry, and Jiang Taigong replied:

"War cavalry has ten victories and nine defeats..."

"The so-called ten victors: when the enemy arrives, the line is still undecided, and the front and back are not in the same direction. If the front horse is trapped, and the left and right sides are hit, the enemy will go away; the enemy's line is neat and solid, and the soldiers want to fight. Going, or galloping, it is as fast as the wind, it is as violent as thunder, and the day is as dark as darkness. If you change the banners and clothes, your army can be defeated; the enemy is not solid, and the soldiers do not fight. Left and right, strike with wings, the enemy will be afraid; the enemy will return at dusk, the three armies will be terrified, wing the two sides, attack the rear quickly, thin the entrance of the fortress, if no one can enter, the enemy will be defeated."

"The enemy has no danger and security. If the enemy is driven deep and long, and his food supply is cut off, the enemy will starve; , it will be captured; the enemy will return at dusk, and its soldiers will be numerous, and its formation will be chaotic; let me ride ten to form a team, a hundred to form a garrison, five chariots to gather, ten to form a group, set up more banners, and miscellaneous Use a strong crossbow; either hit its sides, or cut off its front and rear, and the enemy will capture them. This cavalry has ten victories."

It roughly means that the power of cavalry lies in its powerful maneuverability, always like a poisonous snake that devours people, looking for flaws and weaknesses in the enemy's formation.

Once the opportunity is identified, the formation will attack the back and flanks of the enemy's formation, and it will be overwhelming;

If there is a disparity in combat power, choose an opportunity to cut off the enemy's food supply, or cooperate with the main force to outflank the two wings.

All of these, taken together, are the usefulness and advantages of cavalry.

However, at this time, due to Gongsun Zan's excessive charge, the cavalry temporarily lost most of its role, with no mobility and only impact power.

The hill seemed to be responding to Gao Zhi's worries, the shouts of killing suddenly burst out, and countless arrows poured down like a storm, or without interruption.

The soldiers of the Han army on the road didn't check, and they were immediately shot and turned on their backs. They were all panicked and shouted everywhere.

"Enemy attack! There is an enemy attack!"

"There is an ambush!"

After a round of arrow rain, countless Xianbei infantry wearing black armor and holding spears and swords emerged from the woods on the hill, all shouting angrily and rushing towards the panicked Han army.

"Boom~"

The pine path on the side of the slope has no vegetation, and the yellowish brown soil is exposed. At this time, under the trampling of the Xianbei army, flying sand rose up, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

All of a sudden, there were deafening shouts of killing all around. The guards under Gongsun Zan's command and the Xianbei army had already handed over and fought together.

Gongsun Zan had a plan in mind, he stopped his horse and looked in the opposite direction, and saw a well-armored man who was a hundred steps away, also looking back, looking at his expression, who is it if it's not an enemy general?

Gongsun Zan licked his dry lips, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he ordered decisively, "The whole army goes out and hits the central army!"

For general generals, when encountering an ambush, the safer way is to order to stand in place and stand firm, and then slowly approach the central army after the various ministries have stabilized their positions, so as not to be surrounded and divided by the enemy, and to break down one by one.

However, Gongsun Zan was different. He was born with a gambler and a ruthless nature, so he chose the most straightforward method - kill the general and capture the flag!

It has to be said that in wars in the cold weapon era, there are often many factors that can affect the victory of a battle.

Or internal factors, or external factors, or human factors.

Looking at the art of war from ancient times to the present, the timing, location, and harmony of people are all key!

The weather, extraordinary people can control, changeable, without a trace.

Geographical advantage is a favorable trend that needs to be used based on military exploration.

In addition to the above two factors being external factors, human harmony is a combination of internal factors and human factors, and it is also the most basic and relatively easy to control factor.

In harmony, physical health, military strength, and morale play an important role.

Many times, we tend to be shocked by the result of a seemingly unsuspecting two-party battle with obvious gaps.

For example, Gan Ning's [-] riders defeated Cao Ying, Zhang Liao defeated Sun Quan's [-] by [-], Zhao Zilong went out seven times and entered seven times in Changbanpo, Dangyang...

These things, before they happen, most people dare not, or even imagine.

The reason for this situation is based on momentum, human heart and courage.

Killing the general and capturing the flag can often become the condition for the end of a war. This is actually unimaginable in the era of hot weapons.

However, in the era of cold weapons, it is particularly prominent.

Because for soldiers, the premise of orders and prohibitions is to conduct battles under the command of the familiar generals in the army and the banner of the Chinese army;

Correspondingly, as long as the connection between the two and the army can be quickly destroyed, it will be able to destroy Kula Song and get twice the result with half the effort!

Of course, even though beheading the general and capturing the flag can quickly destroy the morale of the enemy army, it is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous thing. If one is not careful, he may be deeply trapped in the enemy's line and cannot escape. At that time, it will be his own morale that will be frustrated in the end.

So in the final analysis, this is actually a double-edged sword, which hurts others and easily hurts oneself.

At this time, Gongsun Zan undoubtedly chose this seemingly simplest and most effective method.

After confirming the target, he was full of murderous intent, and he was invincible in the direction of the spear, one shot at a time, without stopping for a moment, he charged forward on his horse, pointing directly at the enemy general's center.

In just a short while, more than ten riders have been broken in a row.

The bright silver armor on Gongsun Zan's body has also been stained by the blood spattered by the enemy.

A hundred Xianbei generals tried to block, but Gongsun Zan pierced them all with a gun, causing blood mist to fill the sky, and the dark red intestines and viscera spilled all over the ground.

As the saying goes, the courage of a soldier, Gongsun Zan killed all directions, and the morale of the Han army around him became higher and higher, and the more he fought, the more brave he became.

As the commander-in-chief of the first army, Gongsun Zan himself even sacrificed his life to fight in the front, which made these soldiers excited, so why didn't they fight to the death with all their might?

The strong fighting spirit in their chests could no longer be suppressed. After fighting and fighting, the tired arms of the soldiers unexpectedly produced strength out of thin air.

Because of the overwhelming morale and murderous aura, the Han army rushed forward to fight as if they didn't want their lives.

Gongsun Zan was even more brazen and brave, taking the lead and rushing into the enemy's line.

The horse on his crotch is a divine steed, and the iron spear in his palm is also a sharp blade that is one in a thousand. Standing high and waving it around, the Xianbei infantry around him were scattered all over the place as if they had been cut into melons and vegetables.

Behind him, Baima Yicong is like a sharp knife on the battlefield. Wherever there is fierce resistance, their figures will appear there.

Under the impact of the cavalry, once the dense infantry formation is torn apart, it is like a dam that has broken its embankment, and it will collapse at the touch of a touch.

Therefore, at this moment, facing the charge of Baima Yicongcheng's formation, although there are only a few hundred riders in the area, they are well-equipped, and the queue does not disperse during the march.

How can the scattered Xianbei infantry resist, they are often scattered just after the formation is halfway through.
