Seven hundred and twenty-six cavalry revolution
Zhang Liao was very excited about this cavalry revolution.
Like Zhang Fei, he used a wolf-toothed iron rod and rode his horse and danced with his hands. The dance was full of vigor and made the soldiers cheer loudly.
Yu Jin couldn't help but see such a majesty. He put on the battlefield, rode a war horse equipped with horses, and fought with Zhang Liao on the horse with a wolf-toothed iron rod.
The two of them went back and forth, and then they simply stopped the war horses, sat on the horses and used weapons with their hands, and fought with maces in circles. You could even fight on the horses with one move. Such fierce cavalry battles made the soldiers fascinated and cheered loudly.
If Guo Peng was present at this time, he would definitely recognize him. This is the reappearance of the specific link between the Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Fang Tian painted halberd, double-stranded sword, green dragon and moon sword, wing-eight snake spear, military generals in the late Eastern Han Dynasty waved heavy weapons that were only available in the Song Dynasty and caught each other and fought.
If this situation is not strong and talented and well-trained, it can only be done with complete horse harnesses.
Only in this way can we truly liberate our hands and do not have to work hard to balance our bodies, but can use all our strength to wield weapons.
In a very short time, the tactics and tactics of the Wei cavalry underwent revolutionary changes.
Zhang Liao and Yu Jin brought together a group of Bingzhou generals from Lu Bu's army, and a group of generals who were well versed in cavalry tactics to study the new cavalry tactics and the strategic position of cavalry under new circumstances.
While Guo Peng sent cavalry equipment and promoted the cavalry reform of the Southeast Corps, he sent a cart of bamboo slips to Zhang Liao.
The bamboo slips write about the new cavalry tactics he has studied from a professional perspective.
Guo Peng is undoubtedly a military expert, which is recognized by everyone in the world.
Zhang Liao carefully looked at the bamboo slips of this car and felt that Guo Peng's insights were very novel, and the tactics of the large cavalry legion he described were very eye-catching.
In particular, he mentioned a tactic.
It is a tactic that not only does man focus on armor, but also connects heavy cavalry with horses and armor, and then forcibly attacks the infantry formation.
Guo Peng believes that such tactics can allow cavalry to tear the enemy's infantry formation head-on, achieve the effect of breaking the formation at high speed that infantry and light cavalry cannot achieve, avoid the fierce battle before breaking the formation, greatly reduce the casualties of the army, and also shock the enemy's morale.
At this time, a large number of cavalry wearing light armor and leather armor then attacked, and used heavy weapons to rush into the enemy's formation to kill the infantry. High-speed maneuvering and condescending, it was easy to completely defeat the enemy infantry that had lost the protection of the army.
Once the military formation is lost on the battlefield, the infantry will be the living target of the cavalry. Not to mention the three cavalry artifacts, the same is true when there are no cavalry.
Military formations are the life of infantry and the standard configuration of the battlefield. They must not be left out.
Zhang Liao used to never think about such an idea, but now that he has seen the birth of a new cavalry under the blessing of the three magical tools and felt that safe feeling, Zhang Liao felt that this was indeed feasible.
If the cavalry can have the ability to charge, instead of the original state where they can only ride and shoot and break the enemy, the cavalry can directly evolve into a battlefield killer and become an important group of troops that can compete with the infantry and fight against the main force instead of just auxiliary.
However, such cavalry only seems to exist in Guo Peng's bamboo slips.
Guo Peng said on the bamboo slip that he was trying to build such a cavalry.
In Yecheng, he planned to select 300 elites from the personal soldiers of the Tiger Guard to try to form heavy cavalry, and to create the first batch of 300 such cavalry to try the waters. If it is really feasible, then continue to expand the scale.
It is barely possible to raise a branch with the national strength that Mr. Guo has mastered.
What Guo Peng said about trying the waters is naturally to use the Jiangdong battlefield to test the waters.
Whether it can be fought, whether it will be effective in actual combat, whether it will make the enemy frightened, whether the military formation will collapse at a high speed, whether it can reduce the casualties of the army, and indirectly reduce the cost of war for Mr. Guo, these are all things that Mr. Guo is concerned about.
Zhang Liao was also looking forward to the appearance of such cavalry.
However, before such cavalry came, Zhang Liao learned on the first day of May that Zhou Yu had successfully quelled the civil turmoil in Jiangdong and wiped out the main force of the Jiangdong rebels.
He was surprised and immediately sent the news to Yecheng, but before him, Jia Xu had already used a ship to deliver the news to the north.
On the sixth day of the fifth month, Guo Peng learned about the news sent by Jia Xu in Yecheng.
He learned that Jia Xu had successfully abandoned the Jiangdong rebels and then Zhou Yu quelled the rebellion. He learned that the main force of the Jiangdong rebels was destroyed, and a small number were still fighting in scattered battles, but it was no longer a mess.
The powerful forces and Shanyue forces in the five counties in Jiangdong were severely hit and almost failed to recover. The Sun Wu regime has taken root in Jiangdong more firmly than before.
In order to achieve this goal, Guo Peng even learned that Zhou Yu used forced marriages to force the senior gentry of Jiangdong and the Sun Wu regime to achieve the effect of forcibly cooperated, trying to make the Sun Wu regime a legitimate regime in Jiangdong.
In addition, Zhou Yu also learned from Guo Peng, killed all the powerful families that participated in the rebels, swept them all, seized their supplies and population, and did what Guo once did.
Zhou Yu, he really worked hard for the Wu Kingdom.
Guo Peng sighed at this.
Although I was a little moved by his and Sun Ce’s affection, I still had to kill him.
Since the Sun Wu regime has completed all the work as a tool man, it is time to destroy it and we cannot keep it.
Guo Peng then formally ordered the war to begin on the eighth day of the fifth month of the second year of Jian'an. He used the emperor's edict to declare Wu a rebellion of the Han Empire, and ordered the Han general and King Guo Peng of Wei to attack Wu to quell the rebellion.
He had a legitimate reason to send troops south.
Guo Peng then ordered Zhang Liao, the general of the Wei State to serve as the commander of the battle to destroy Wu, and to lead the entire army. The southeastern army, including the Qingzhou Navy under Taishici, must comply with Zhang Liao's orders.
Yu Jin was ordered to be the deputy commander, assist Zhang Liao in fighting, and lead the 30,000 troops of the East China Sea camp to obey Zhang Liao's command and not make any mistakes.
He also ordered Guo Jia to go south and hold the position of military advisor General with the wise and axe, and assisted the commander Zhang Liao in the battle to wipe out the Sun Wu regime.
Guo Jia was also ordered to give Zhang Liao Jieyue on his behalf, and Zhang Liao was ordered to command the entire army with this. If anyone disrespects the military order, he would be killed directly without reporting. However, Zhang Liao needed to accept Guo Jia's supervision.
As a result, the battle to destroy Wu officially began.
With the order of Guo Peng, the two prefectures of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, as well as the two counties of Lujiang and Jiujiang, will unconditionally provide Zhang Liao with the military rations and various military supplies he needs, and all auxiliary soldiers will mobilize them.
He also ordered the governor of Yuzhou Man Chong to mobilize 50,000 civil servants, and Guo Peng himself served as the governor of Xuzhou, and ordered the counties of Xuzhou to organize 50,000 civil servants to be used as a standby.
Wars are being prepared everywhere to go on quickly.
After receiving the orders from the county magistrates, county magistrates, township chiefs and village chiefs from all over the country, they started to operate at high speed, mobilized all the grassroots units in various places, and quickly entered the wartime system, just like every battle before.
Guo Peng's entrustment in various places, the military farmer who lived and filled his life with gratitude turned into tool people, and set foot on the battlefield to transport military rations, military supplies and other necessities to the front-line regular troops fighting on the front line.
Under Guo Peng's leadership, the greater mobilization power that a larger population should have was fully mobilized. The more people the greater the mobilization power, and the benefits of Guo's vigorous efforts to eliminate political enemies and expand power are also fully revealed.
The soldiers of the Wei army obtained higher war guarantees, and could eat full every meal, eat meat before and after the war. They did not have to worry about being hungry, were fully equipped, did not have to worry about going to the battlefield to hit people with bare hands, nor did they have to worry about the war being delayed for a long time, so that the weather turned colder and there was no clothes to wear.
When Yuan Shu was fighting against Yuan Shu, one of the reasons for his failure was that his logistics could not keep up with him. He was unprepared for the sudden cold wave, which led to a large number of soldiers who were innocently frozen to death and lost their combat effectiveness.
Once the Wei army soldiers started to fight, there would be no problem with logistics support and no problems were allowed.
If something goes wrong, Guo Peng will definitely be able to investigate it to the end, then pull out the radish and bring out the mud, rub the relevant officials to the end, and penetrate all into the abyss to maintain his mobilization.
