Chapter 1460 (Page 1/1)

Dong Xi came to the formation and was hesitating about how to speak. Lu Su sent someone to invite him over. Dong Xi brought a few personal guards and rode his horse to Lu Su formation. Quan Rou had already arrived and was talking to Lu Su, with a very respectful attitude. Dong Xi looked at it, and although he felt uncomfortable, he had to put away his unhappiness.

Lu Su greeted him. "Do you still remember the general's deployment in the Yuan Dynasty?"

Dong Xi nodded silently. Sun Ce's overall combat plan had been issued to the generals of each battalion, so he certainly knew it.

"Then tell me, how to fight this battle?" Lu Su pointed at the Yuan army camp opposite with a horse whip. Behind the Gaolan position, the Yuan army camp was echoing with a low sound of war drums. This was a signal that people and horses came out of the camp. Yuan Shao must have known about their arrival and was sending people to reinforce Gaolan.

"How else can I fight? Kill him." Dong Ximan looked at Gao Lan on the opposite side without caring. His teeth were itchy and his heart was itchy. Otherwise, I would just take it for a while and fight for this task to kill Gao Lan and get rid of his previous shame?

Lu Su glanced at Dong Xi and suddenly understood Sun Ce's intention. This was the final test for him. After this battle, Sun Ce had to arrange for him to guard Luoyang. The situation in Luoyang was complicated and various forces were intertwined. He inevitably had to deal with different people. This ability may be more important than the ability to fight. Dong Xi was the first person to take the initiative to rely on when Sun Ce entered Kuaiji. He was very skilled in martial arts and brave in combat. Sun Ce always liked him very much. Dong Xi therefore regarded himself very high and did not regard himself as an ordinary general, and regarded himself as Sun Ce's minions.

Only by being able to obey such a general can Sun Ce truly believe that he has the ability to take charge of Luoyang.

Lu Su thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Yuan Dynasty, can I ask you a question?"

Dong Xi looked back at Lu Su and bowed. "Zi Jing said so seriously, just to discuss with each other."

Lu Su smiled. "You said that our three teams, which team has the heaviest task?"

"Of course, we have the most elite forces along the way, and the general is personally in charge, and he deserves the main force."

"What is our main task?"

"Severely hit Yuan Shao."

"Yes, the Yuan Dynasty was very clear about the general's intentions." Lu Su smiled slightly. "The Yuan Dynasty must be very clear about what kind of opponent we are going to deal with and how to deal with it, right? Can the Yuan Dynasty tell you how we should form a formation to minimize casualties?"

"What else can..." Dong Xi spoke to his mouth, and suddenly understood Lu Su's reminder, and swallowed half of his words back. Although Gao Lan had caused him to suffer losses, it was Gao Lan who occupied the favorable terrain to ambush him. Infantrymen with the same force formed a formation and did not need to be so cautious. Only the elite troops led by Yuan Shao could make Lu Su so cautious: one was the cavalry, the other was the armored cavalry, especially the armored cavalry. Sun Ce repeatedly reminded before the battle that their mission was to entangle Yuan Shao, make his cavalry and armored cavalry unable to take care of others, and provide help for the surround of the left and right wings. No matter how well their training was and without a suitable formation, the Jiangdong Army could not shake the armored cavalry head-on with flesh and blood, otherwise the casualties would be heavy.

Gao Lan is easy to deal with, but behind Gao Lan is the main force led by Yuan Shao, and the cavalry and armored cavalry may appear at any time. If you are not well prepared and are raided by the cavalry, what's the point of killing Gao Lan even if you kill Gao Lan?

How to deal with the Arctic Cavalry? The Military Planning Department had a plan, and the generals discussed this issue. Lu Su was catching Zhanshan to block Yuan Shao, and had seen Arctic Cavalry array with his own eyes, but Yuan Shao never sent Arctic Cavalry to the battlefield. There was only one reason: Lu Su lined up with the mountains, and there were powerful crossbows. The mountain situation could prevent the cavalry from accelerating charge, and the crossbows could break the armor.

After understanding Lu Su's reminder, Dong Xi was ashamed and his competitive spirit suddenly flew out of the sky. He looked around and thought for a moment. "We will set up infantry on the dunes and stand tall. Then deploy the crossbow chariot between the dunes, dig a trench in front of the crossbow chariot, and stand up to resist the horse..."

Sun Ce attached importance to the post-war review, and often gathered generals to discuss matters and proposed countermeasures against specific enemies. The Arctic Cavalry was his opponent whom he attached great importance to. He had discussed many times on how to deal with the Arctic Cavalry. The Military Planning Office and the generals of the battalions worked together to have some methods that were recognized as effective. At this moment, Dong Xi made specific implementation suggestions based on the actual terrain. Although he dared not say that it was foolproof, it was also practical.

Lu Su had thought of this for a long time. He just wanted to remind Dong Xi not to just seek revenge on Gao Lan and forget about the potential danger. Seeing that Dong Xi was very sarcastic, he nodded repeatedly. The three of them hit it off and immediately agreed to challenge Gao Lan to buy time. Once Yuan Shao dispatched cavalry or armored cavalry, he would retreat immediately. Lu Su and Quan Rou seized the time to set up a formation and were ready to respond at any time.

Dong Xi was very grateful. Lu Su not only reminded him, but also gave him face.

As soon as the war drum sounded, Dong Xi led his subordinates to force him up. There was a song of soldiers on each side of the left and right wings, and rushed towards Gao Lan's left wing. Seeing this, Gao Lan ordered the left wing to fight. In the battle of hunting Zhanshan, he became famous in one battle. Now he is a general of the Central Army, responsible for commanding 5,000 people. When he was promoted, his old subordinates naturally rose. Several of the original commanders were promoted to lieutenants, commanding thousands of people. Gao Pan, the left wing's commander, was his companion. He had just been promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant, and was eager to make meritorious contributions. He heard the sound of the war drums going to fight and immediately counterattacked.

The sword and shield hand raised the big shield, and the spearman raised the spear, waiting for the battle. The crossbowman stood behind the formation and began to shoot at the designated position. Dong Xi's subordinates all held large shields and had fine armor to cover each other. Dong Xi paid attention to the changes in Gao Lan's position, while ordering the crossbowman to come forward to cover. This scale of battle changes is very limited, and there will be no unexpected changes. It pays attention to the command level of the subordinate officers such as Qu Junhou and Tun Chief and the battle of ordinary soldiers. In this regard, the Jiangdong Army has obvious advantages and does not need Dong Xi to pay too much attention. He just needs to pay attention to not let Gao Lan mobilize the superior forces and form a local siege of the assault soldiers.

In contrast, he was more concerned about the movements of the Yuan army camp in the distance. In order not to put too much pressure on Yuan Shao, he dispatched the armored cavalry as soon as possible, and even slowed down the pace of the battle, making the battle seem like a stalemate.

Gao Lan has certain experience in commanding troops and has also seen the Jiangdong Army up close, but it was the first time he actually fought with the Jiangdong Army. Seeing that Dong Xi's subordinates had a strict formation and a rainbow of morale, their combat effectiveness was not as good as expected, and they were unable to put real pressure on the left wing for a long time, they were a little disappointed. He sent a signal to the central army for help, but the level of danger was not high, which only showed that he had insufficient troops and requested reinforcements.

Upon receiving news from Gao Lan, Yuan Shao sent two generals of the army to help the camp, and at the same time ordered the Arctic Cavalry to temporarily postpone the camp and prepare for the assault. Once Gao Lan sent an emergency call for help, the Arctic Cavalry to attack again to reverse the situation.

Ten thousand infans rushed to the front of the formation, lined up on Gao Lan's left and right sides, and slowly rushed up. Seeing that Dong Xi was attacking Gao Lan's left wing, Zhang Yan ordered his or her wings to squeeze forward and reinforce Gao Pan. He led the central army and the left wing to attack Dong Xi's own formation, preparing to eat the two Qu Jiangdong Army who were attacking Gao Pan in one bite.

Dong Xi could see clearly and couldn't help but sneer. He looked back and saw that Lu Su and Quan Rou's deployment had been basically completed and the opportunity to counterattack was ripe, so he ordered the drum to start a strong attack.

The sound of war drums suddenly exploded, and the two soldiers in front of Gaopan Formation roared in unison.
