One hundred and fifty-six chapters actual combat training(2/2)
Yao Chang now only hopes that Meng Hu's northern wing army can arrive a few days later, but things are unpredictable. Yao Chang thinks that Meng Hu's northern wing army can arrive a few days later, and the news he least wants to hear came from the exploration horses in front of him. Meng Hu's northern wing army has arrived, and now it is less than twenty miles away from the Black Wind!
Yao Chang's eyebrows suddenly covered a cloud of darkness. Looking back at the camp behind him, it was still not the same. Even the ditch in front of the camp had not been dug, let alone the sharp antlers were laid in the ditch. It was almost the same to use a half-man-high fence to resist wild beasts. It was just a delusion to block Meng Hu's northern wing army.
At this point, we can only rely on the flesh and blood of the soldiers in Yunzhou to resist Meng Hu's northern wing division. Fortunately, the terrain of Heifengkou is relatively narrow, which is not conducive to the deployment of the army. Although Meng Hu's northern wing division has an absolute advantage in military strength, the army that can be deployed to attack at most is only one division at a time!
Taking a deep breath of cold air, Yao Chang turned around and shouted: "Telection, the baggage corps immediately pushed all the baggage vehicles out of the mountain pass and formed a chariot formation. The First Division closely followed the chariot formation. The Second Division stepped up digging trenches and was ready to respond to the First Division at any time!"
With Yao Chang's order, the First Division of the Yunzhou Legion quickly began to act. Hundreds of baggage vehicles were pushed outside the Black Wind, forming a vehicle array across the entire mountain pass. Following the vehicle array were three rows of heavy infantry wearing heavy armor, then heavy infantry holding spears, followed by archers holding longbows, and finally light infantry wearing light armor.
Almost as soon as the First Division of Yunzhou was setting up its defensive formation, a long and distant horn sounded on the snow field outside the Black Wind. Amid the endless horn sounds, teams of brightly-clad imperial troops turned out from behind the mountain, and took neat steps on the knee-deep snow, shouting loud trumpets slowly approaching the mountain pass.
Meng Hu still kept a secret. When he was still thirty miles away from Heifengkou, he asked the soldiers to put away their snowboards and hide them in a secret valley. This thing is a secret weapon that can increase the speed of the Western Legion's march. After eating the two Mingyue Divisions of Heifengkou, these snowboards will be of great use.
The black wind vent is dumbbell-shaped, the middle pass is relatively narrow, and the exits at the north and south ends are quite spacious.
The four divisions of the Western Legion lined side by side outside the mountain pass. The left wing was Ma Sifeng's cavalry division, and the right wing was Xiong Batian's more than 3,000 barbarian cavalry. The soldiers of Yunzhou who were huddled in the mountain pass looked out. They saw the red flags, red battle robes and red armor. Under the setting sun, they were stained with blood, and were covered in red!
In front of the Western Legion, Meng Hu slowly stepped out of the battle surrounded by Qi Diaozi and Jia Wudao.
Qi Diaozi looked at the terrain slightly, then frowned and said, "General, the terrain of this mountain pass is relatively narrow, which is not conducive to the development of the army. Our army will be able to attack at most one division at a time."
“Just.”
