Three Kingdoms: The son-in-law was lying flat, and Lu Bu eavesdropped on his heart

actually.

Wang Yun was not the only one who was curious.

Why didn't Lu Bu seize this opportunity and completely squeeze Liu Bei out?

However, when they really learned about Cao Cao on the Qingzhou battlefield, they felt a little lucky.

Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion.

Government Hall.

Before the real map.

The soldiers are rehearsing the Qingzhou battlefield.

Although, the battlefield intelligence they learned was limited.

But it still did not prevent them from speculating on the combat effectiveness of Cao Cao's army.

I don’t know if I don’t speculate, but I’m really shocked when I speculate. hiss~~~

Xu Huang couldn't help but gasped, his scalp suddenly numb, and his spine felt chilly:"My lord, Cao Cao's cavalry responsible for charging into the formation is most likely a heavy cavalry."

"That's right!

Zhang Liao then echoed:"What Gong Ming said makes sense, and I feel the same way!" Judging from the tactical arrangement alone, Liu Bei's response was pretty good, but the combat effectiveness of both sides was too poor, and the formation was broken."

"If it is a light cavalry!"

"I am afraid......"

Zhang Liao shook his head and exhaled a breath:"It cannot achieve such a tactical effect."

Qu Yi also nodded:"That's right! Although the number of this cavalry is not large, its combat effectiveness is so strong that ordinary light cavalry can't do it. Done!"

"and!"

Qu Yi noticed something very keenly:"Have you seen that Cao Cao's cavalry is divided into two teams, one team is responsible for charging, and the other team is responsible for chasing!"

"This is completely different from Wuhuan's sudden cavalry, Xiliang's Xiaoqi, and even our wolf cavalry. Our charging formation and 29 pursuit are just a troop of soldiers and horses, relying on super high riding skills and riding combat to achieve results."

"This tactic reminds me of the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army back then!"

Qu Yi's thoughts seemed to suddenly return to the Liangzhou battlefield, when the imperial court sent the fifth battalion of the Northern Army to conquer the Qiang and Hu:"My lord, you should know very well that the imperial court's Tunqi battalion is composed of heavy cavalry, while the Yueqi battalion is composed of heavy cavalry. Light cavalry composed of aliens"

"On the battlefield, the garrison battalion is often responsible for rushing into formation, while the Yue cavalry battalion is responsible for encircling and outflanking, or taking advantage of the victory to pursue the victory. When one is heavy and the other is light, the combat effectiveness will be stronger!"

Of course Lu Bu knew it.

The fifth battalion of the Northern Army was indeed configured like this.

But in fact, who doesn't know the powerful combat effectiveness of heavy cavalry?

But......

Is it so easy to form heavy cavalry?

First: the quality of the war horse must be very high; second: the cost of the armor of the war horse is not low; third: the most critical thing is that the maintenance cost of a heavy cavalry is too expensive.

Because the horses are of high quality, they require dedicated maintenance, and the feed is more than double that of ordinary war horses.

Raising such a force of soldiers and horses can equal two or even three light cavalry.

Unless the wealthy imperial court could afford it, how could ordinary princes be willing to spend money on it?

Counting this on ordinary soldiers, raising one heavy cavalry is almost equal to eight ordinary soldiers!

With all this money, wouldn't it be nice to use it to expand our military strength?

But......

Ordinary people are reluctant to give up.

But Cao Cao was willing to give up.

This was the first time Lu Bu felt that Cao Cao was extraordinary.

No wonder, this boy Ah Hao admires this person so much.

Tian Chou took a deep breath and exhaled slowly:"My lord, I have a vague feeling that Cao Cao's cavalry was built to deal with my lord, and Liu Bei is just its whetstone."

Oops!

Wang Hao on the side couldn't help but his eyes suddenly brightened, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.

【But there is someone who understands. It’s so obvious, can’t you see it?】

【Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are the best among the best. They are by no means as simple as imagined.】

【And not only the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but also the crossbowmen seemed to be not simple either!】

【Others may not know it clearly, but Qu Yi should be aware of it!】

【This powerful crossbow unit is clearly the one under Han Fu!】

【Cao Cao practiced cavalry, infantry, and various tactics.】

【Whether it's Liu Bei or the Yellow Turban, it's really miserable this time!】

【If Lu Bu doesn't pay attention to this kid, he will probably suffer a hidden loss! 】

hiss~~~

Lu Bu couldn't help but gasp.

Suddenly my scalp felt numb and my spine felt chilly.

To be honest, this was the first time he felt threatened!

Notwithstanding the configuration of light and heavy cavalry, there is actually a strong crossbow unit.

Cao Cao really has two tricks up his sleeve!

Fortunately, we didn't rush to Qingzhou recklessly, otherwise it's really not sure who would suffer.

The Art of War says: Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle. really!

That makes perfect sense

"That's right! Lu

Bu nodded slowly and exhaled:"Not only these two cavalrymen, but also this strong crossbow unit seems a bit unusual. It reminds me of Han Fu's Jizhou strong crossbow.""

"lord~~~"

Qu Yi was shocked, with a look of surprise on his face:"Do you also feel this way?"

Lu Bu frowned:"Why, Zhengli also feels familiar?"

"kindness!

Qu Yi nodded:"More than just familiarity?" It looks like they were trained by the same person! The lord should know that Zhao Fu under Han Fu's tent is the chief general of Jizhou Qiannu!"

"But since Han Fu surrendered to Jizhou, this man disappeared mysteriously. I thought he would never appear again, but unexpectedly, I found a familiar feeling again on the Qingzhou battlefield."

"Tell the truth!"

Qu Yi clasped his fists and raised his hands, and said with great solemnity:"During the Battle of Jieqiao, out of the three thousand soldiers and horses of the general, two thousand were all from these strong crossbowmen. If it weren't for their superb crossbow tactics, they would never have been able to defeat them. It is possible to defeat the Wuhuan Tuqi"

"oh?

Lu Bu became even more astonished:"Is this happening?""(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Qu Yi nodded:"That's right! In fact, my lord, the cavalry is by no means invincible. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, General Li Ling led 5,000 infantry and was surrounded by 80,000 Huns cavalry."

"Li Ling surrounded the cart as a camp, and led his soldiers to form an array outside the camp. The front row held halberds and shields, and the back row held crossbows. The Xiongnu Chanyu personally led the troops. With such a huge disparity in strength, he lost more than ten thousand people and was unable to capture Li Ling. , once thought of retreating"

"In a sense."

At this point, Qu Yi let out a long breath:"The final general's formation at the boundary bridge is similar to that of General Li Ling, except that the chariots were removed to prevent the lord from arousing suspicion."

"Therefore, no one will understand the essence of this battle better than the general. Whether it is shield soldiers or spear soldiers, they are all just to destroy the mobility of the cavalry."

"And the real essence of this array!"

Qu Yi said very solemnly:"It's none other than the crossbowmen, because at the moment when the cavalry is eliminated, only they can deal fatal damage and completely collapse the opponent's mentality." hiss~~~

Lu Bu couldn't help but gasp. really!

Cao Cao's strong crossbowmen are by no means strong crossbowmen in the ordinary sense.

But it was the Jizhou Qiang Crossbow inherited from Han Fu.

They must have been formed to deal with their own Wolf Riders.

In the past, Lu Bu would only smile hastily and not take the other party seriously at all.

But with Wang Hao's voice, he did not dare to underestimate Cao Cao!

For a moment, Lu Bu was worried, and then asked:"Zhengli, is there any weakness in this formation?"

Qu Yi pondered for a long time:"Yes, there is, but it may not be that easy to break it!"

"No matter whether it can be broken or not!

Lu Bu waved his hand and said loudly:"First tell me the weaknesses of this formation.""

Qu Yi said softly:"Actually, the strongest crossbow soldier in this formation is also its biggest weakness. Although the strong crossbow has strong attack power, it is difficult to reset the bow string. If it can shoot two to three arrows in one battle, it is considered good."

"That's right! Lu

Bu nodded with interest:"Is this the reason why you personally led the troops to attack after the strong crossbow attack?" Qu Yi nodded:"

My lord is wise, indeed.""

Lu Bu understood it completely.

At the same time, Yi Wang couldn't help but think highly of Qu Yi.

【Qu Yi really has some skills. He is very proficient in the characteristics of each type of military.】

【In a sense, his strength may be comparable to that of Gao Shun.】

【However, who said that crossbowmen are not suitable for charging? It's difficult to reset the bowstring. Can it be repaired?】

【The lever crossbow, one of the three most powerful crossbows in Europe, can perfectly solve this problem. The bow string can be reset and sucked.】

【I remember it looking like this! Main principles of lever crossbow.jpg]

Damn it!

When the schematic diagram of the lever crossbow appeared in Lu Bu's mind.

He was 837 immediately stunned. as if......

It's like a new world has opened up.

It resets in an instant, and is simply more powerful than an archer!

It is conceivable that if you encounter such a strong crossbowman on the battlefield, there is almost no possibility of survival within fifty steps!

Even cavalry can be equipped with such powerful crossbows, which is absolutely of strategic significance in chasing and breaking formations! pretty!

Ah Hao is worthy of being a disciple of the Xian family.

Which state is this in Europe?

Definitely not a big man!

Is it possible that this kid has been to Europe before?

Lu Bu suppressed the excitement in his heart, and with a flash of inspiration, he tentatively said:"Just right, since the bowstring of the strong crossbow is so difficult to reset, haven't you thought of a way to modify it?"

"this......"

Qu Yi frowned and shook his head in embarrassment:"Lord, we would like to, but we really don't have the ability!"

Lu Bu waved his hand and said softly:"Okay, it doesn't matter, I will find someone who has passed the labor test. Look for a way to solve the problem of resetting the bow string of the strong crossbow!"

Wang Hao on the side was stunned and his eyes widened.

【Damn it! What a good Lu Bu, you really have some ideas.】

【To put it simply, the lever crossbow is a labor-saving lever. It is very simple.】

【As long as you make one out of bronze and mount it on a crossbow, you can solve the problem immediately.】

【However, it is probably difficult to think of something of this epoch-making significance.】

【Should I help him secretly? It's always good to give some tips.】

【I'm afraid Liu Bei won't last long. Once he is defeated, the little emperor will definitely ask Lu Bu to fight.】

【In addition, mass production also takes time. I'm afraid there is a slight delay. It is indeed a bit of a time crunch. 】

Hey~~~

Brat!

The ideological realm has improved.

He actually knew to take the initiative to help.

Don't worry, I will perform well and won't expose you.

It's just the principle of leverage, your diagram is very clear.

I, Lu Bu, haven't reached that level yet!
