Chapter 4187: The Divine Arrow is not a one-man fight
Liu Yu's face changed slightly and he didn't speak. Tan Shao on the side said coldly: "Chite, Brother A Shao advises you, my uncle, you'd better not learn from me. What archers need on the battlefield is to protect themselves."
, only in this way can we effectively kill the enemy."
Xu Chite shook his head: "We have heard the story of Brother Ah Shao and Brother Bottle since we were children. Although I have never seen him, I have always been fascinated by him. He always rushes to the front in every battle, so that he can have the best chance."
It’s a good shooting position. Otherwise, if you hide behind and be covered by the melee warriors, you will be safe, but you can’t see the enemy. How can you kill the enemy with one arrow?”
Zhu Lingshi said solemnly: "Archers can shoot in a straight direction and hang a large number of arrows to kill the enemy. It doesn't have to be so precise. Chi Te, each has his or her own division of labor on the battlefield. Melee sergeants also need halberdiers and halberdiers.
The location is different, and the functions are also different."
Xu Chite waved his hand: "Brother Lingshi, you have been an archer for so many years. You know this better than me. As an ordinary archer, you really only need to hide behind and shoot fifty quivers.
After all the arrows have been shot, you have completed the mission and you are even an excellent archer. But I am not an ordinary archer. You are the commander-in-chief of the archery unit and the best archer. What you have to do is to fight on the battlefield.
Directly killing the enemy's senior generals, or the enemy that poses the greatest threat to us, such as the enemy's archers or crossbowmen, or the elite knights who charge first, requires one hundred steps to pierce the enemy with one arrow.
To kill, it must be a direct shot."
"If you hide behind and can't even see anyone, how can you attack directly? Brother Bottle is always in front for this purpose."
Liu Yu sighed softly: "Chite, although your idea is good, it is tantamount to increasing your own risks. In the bottle fight, although you are in front, it is because our brothers cooperate to cover it.
For many years, every time he shot from the front, Rabbit would bring a team of shield bearers to cover him, and the arrows shot from the bottle were dynamite. He was not shooting the low-value targets or enemy generals you mentioned."
Xu Chite's expression changed: "I'm shooting at the enemy general. What am I going to do when I stand there?"
Gao Xin shook his head and said: "The enemy's generals generally do not rush to the front personally. Those who attack first are often the enemy's vanguard or warriors trapped in the battle, wearing heavy armor or riding fast horses, risking our lives.
Fang's arrows are raining down to break the formation, and those at the back are usually the enemy's battle-hardened centurions and high-ranking officers of the team, followed by our own team's elite soldiers."
"Those who charge forward have fearless faces. They are the bravest and most well-protected people among the enemy. They often do not attack from the front, but use various cover, such as smoke and beacon fire.
Like this, when the enemy troops are approaching our front line, they suddenly break out and attack the weak points of our front line, especially the gap between the two teams, so as to cut off and penetrate our front line of defense."
"For that kind of impact within a hundred or even dozens of steps, what is needed is to use the fastest arrows and the most powerful shots to give them a fatal blow on the way to the formation. If we can attack them before they charge,
If we kill them in large numbers on the way, our corpses will block the way for the follow-up troops to attack, and this battle will be half won. Otherwise, if we let them attack our front line at close range, the outcome will be difficult to predict.
"
Tan Shao laughed: "Chite, did you hear that? This is the correct way to use an archer. My uncle stood about ten steps in front of the team, not because he wanted to look cool, but because he had to keep an eye on him.
The overall situation, especially the kind of warrior who suddenly rushes out from the enemy's formation. His arrows will occasionally be shot at the fastest speed at the enemy's charging forward.
The archers of the first formation behind us will also shoot directly at the enemy, while the archers of the seventh and eighth formations standing behind our infantry formation will quickly and in large quantities fire arrows in the direction of our shooting.
Covered by rain, it will attack the enemy's following troops."
Liu Yu said seriously: "What I asked you to talk about is of course an important matter, a national matter. Just now I asked Zhen evil to go back to the capital to recruit civilian husbands among the people, but we have also analyzed it just now. In addition to civilian husbands, we also hope to recruit civil servants among the people.
In Jiankang City, we can recruit a lot of veterans and warriors with fighting ability. And these people are not without them, there are quite a lot of them. However, most of them are the caretakers of the aristocratic families, or even the killer guards in the dark.
.”
Xu Chite's eyes widened: "It's actually such a fighting method. I've never heard of it before. It's like standing in front of the formation, seeing any enemy generals and crossbowmen, and knocking them down one by one with one arrow.
"
Gao Xinqing sighed softly: "Yes, all the big families have a lot of people like this, they are public servants and secret guards and assassins. Each big family has about a hundred or even more people.
Most of them are veterans who have joined the army. Those big families in the capital, if they could gather all those people, they would have at least thousands or even tens of thousands of elite soldiers."
Gao Xin sighed: "Chite, I understand your feelings of making great achievements, and my archery skills are indeed no better than those of the bottle back then, but you have to remember that a good archer doesn't just shoot one arrow and finish the job.
Even if you shoot all the arrows in your quiver, there are only seventy arrows. Can you win with seventy arrows? That is obviously impossible."
Liu Yu's eyes flashed with heat: "So, I want you to advise your uncle to take the lead. First, take out the secret guards of the Xu family and organize them into a special temporary army to call on all the major families to send troops!
"
"Your one arrow should be followed by hundreds or thousands of arrows. You must use those arrows to quickly defeat the enemy's charge, or to cause chaos and instability in their defense lines, creating opportunities for our army to attack. Then
That’s the role of the archery unit. Just like the charge of special infantry, it will never be the bravery of an individual fighting alone, but a group of people must attack shoulder to shoulder, forming a sea of spears. Only in this way can we be invincible!"
Xu Chite agreed, but judging from the expression on his face, he still didn't take it to heart. Liu Yu curled his lips and changed the topic: "Chite, I want you to follow me back to Jiantian first."
I’m going to Cannes to meet my uncle.”
Gao Xinqing was a little surprised: "Why are you seeing him? The war is still going on, and he hasn't taken leave to disarm yet. Besides, my uncle is now the deputy prime minister and has a lot of affairs to deal with in the court. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to discuss with my nephew.
Family matters. But Brother Jinu, you must have many important things to discuss with my uncle after you return to Beijing."
