However, methods are not interoperable, and generals do not teach their unique skills to other generals.
This is why in ancient times, the role of famous generals was particularly highlighted.
This is often the case. If he is good, the soldiers he leads will be good. If it were someone else, even the same army might not be good at all.
Generals do not have the habit of passing on their battlefield experience to others. Basically, for the sake of their own honor, they do not pass on their tactics to others.
Who would be stupid at this time?
Only a very small number of generals have compiled the strategies and tactics they have learned over many years of service into a book for the benefit of future generations.
But to be honest, there are very few people who can use it skillfully.
The types of battle formations that are really easy to promote are those that are very easy to coordinate and have a small combat structure.
Of course, if you want to quickly and effectively improve the combat effectiveness of the army, everything is superfluous. Only the progress of weapons is real.
You see, these troops are still using cold weapons, gesticulating with swords and arrows. If a shoulder-mounted rocket appears among them, do you think the effect will be exciting or not?
Do these people still have the right to wield swords and guns?
If the situation between the two armies is like this, one side is a well-trained team with pure cold weapons, while the other side is equipped with advanced thermal weapons, rockets, and missiles, but the discipline of the soldiers is quite loose and there are no rules at all.
.
Take a look, what will be the outcome of such a confrontation between two armies?
It is said that the discipline of the army is the life of the army. This is true. For armies of the same level, this is indeed true.
However, in a battle between hot and cold weapons, facing such an advanced and fully equipped army, there is no need to make any other assumptions. The winner will definitely be the side with hot weapons.
This is the role of weapon generation difference.
Moreover, rockets and missiles are still powerful weapons even on modern battlefields, let alone against pure cold weapon armies.
That was not a battle, it was simply a one-sided crushing!
However, it is a pity that the current Jin-Qin coalition does not have such good luck. They still need to use their wisdom and bravery to face the fierce Qiang soldiers.
Because they had contacted each other early in the morning, Cui Yanyou and Zhu Xu had already made plans.
They knew very well that as two temporary armies, their main task was to hold back the Qiang soldiers stationed in Qinzhou City. They were just holding back. When the large troops of the Northern Expedition arrived, they would be able to succeed.
He retreated.
The troops led by Cui Yanyou took the lead, and then Zhu Xu led the Qin soldiers from afar for the second attack.
In short, it is a waste of Qiang soldiers.
Over here, Cui Yanyou was fighting fiercely with the Qiang soldiers, defeating the soldiers who rushed out of the city one after another.
And over there, Zhu Xu was not idle either.
Although they didn't get the good job of charging, they bypassed the Qiang soldiers who were attacking in the vanguard and moved to the front of the city wall. Soon, the ladder was set up!
Siege the city!
They actually want to attack the city!
Yin Wei, who was standing on the city tower and had been working hard to direct the Qiang soldiers to fight, was already very anxious when he saw that the battle situation below the city was unfavorable.
In a blink of an eye, Zhu Xu and several hundred soldiers escaped and rushed to the front of the city tower.
I got angry immediately!
Uncle's!
Who do you think I am?
So easy to bully?
Let me show you my skills!
As Yao Qiang's backbone, Yao Chang can't come out to challenge yet. After all, he has to retain some strength.
In fact, according to Yao Chang's deployment, Yao Xing should not have jumped out so quickly. As Yao Chang's eldest son and the most powerful general, the meaning of Yao Xing's existence is to continue Yao Qiang.
If the situation were more stable, Yao Chang would proclaim himself emperor, and Yao Xing would be his natural crown prince.
Yao Chang believed that Yao Qiang could be revitalized in the hands of Yao Xing.
So, as such a central figure, Yao Xing should of course be stationed in Qinzhou City at this moment, while Yin Wei should be the one making the surprise attack outside the city.
But, look at it now, Yin Wei is standing on the tower, commanding the soldiers to defend, and is unscathed. But Yao Xing, this young and promising general, has been in and out of the enemy's formation several times, and has almost missed a few times.
Injuried.
Although Yao Chang felt very distressed, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and he could not be too partial.
What's more, he also knows that Yin Wei is not an ordinary person, he has real abilities.
With him protecting Yao Xing from behind, his son might be safer.
And Yin Wei will naturally not disappoint the expectations of Yao and his son. Zhu Xu's troops below the city tower are fighting fiercely.
Wherever you notice, the situation on the tower has changed.
In fact, even if there is a change, the brothers don't have the time to pursue it. They only have one goal in front of them.
That is Qinzhou City Tower!
By capturing this city tower and defeating the enemies on it, Qinzhou City will be captured, and for them, this will be the greatest support for Cui Yanyou's troops who are fighting bloody battles ahead.
In order to achieve this goal, there is not much they can do!
The facts are in front of us. With these Qin soldiers attacking the city, the pressure on Cui Yanyou's side will be much less. After all, no matter what Yao Xing does, the attacks on Cui Yanyou's troops on the city tower are much less.
Facing new enemies threatening the city wall, Yao Qiang soldiers had to throw more arrows at their heads.
The size of the city tower is limited, and the places available for shooting arrows are also limited. Therefore, just relying on shooting arrows from the city tower cannot effectively slow down Zhu Xu's attack on the city.
For the Jin-Qin coalition, the top priority now is to determine a new strategy.
Either concentrate superior forces and capture Qinzhou City in one fell swoop, or don't spend too much force and maintain your strength to deal with the Qiang soldiers.
A realistic situation is before us. After all, the Qiang people launched an attack in Qinzhou City, and their soldiers continued to flow.
And what about the Jin-Qin coalition?
Of course, there were a lot of people. After all, they were two armies combined together. However, they came across a river, and they had just been blocked by some Qiang soldiers in Tianshui.
The number of people must be attrition, so although it seems that the offensive is full now, it is conceivable that such an offensive will not last too long.
After all, there are not enough follow-up supply troops.
Do you want to go all out again?
What seemed to be a real problem before the Jin-Qin coalition was: where would the supply troops come from?
If there are enough troops, who wouldn't want to go all out?
Who wants to waste it like this?
You know, Qinzhou City is not big to begin with. If you follow your daily skills, you can take it down long ago!
Besides, they are all soldiers, no one is any more special than the other, they all want military exploits, big or small, there is nothing to dislike.
At this time, of course, if you can embrace your military achievements, you must embrace them. Unfortunately, Cui Yanyou can no longer count on him.
Zhu Xu was also helpless. Whether it was Tianshui or Hanzhong, a large number of troops still needed to be left to guard.
You can't just break off the stick and throw away the other one.
Therefore, they really can't mobilize more manpower. The only thing they can count on is reinforcements from the Northern Expedition.
Everything is gambling.
The same is true outside Qinzhou City today.
From the very beginning, when Zhu Xu and Cui Yanyou chose to attack before the Northern Expedition army led by Wang Mi arrived, they were already taking risks.
At that time, they only received news that the army was about to arrive in Hanzhong, but they did not get any more detailed information.
Realistic conditions do not allow it. Given the traffic conditions in ancient times, there is no hope in the speed of postal delivery.
It is really impossible to convey the message in a timely and fast manner.
Therefore, when the Jin and Qin allied forces set off for the expedition, they were completely unable to predict when the Northern Expedition army would reach Hanzhong.
Even, when can we come to reinforce them.
They are so bold that they are really risking their lives. If reinforcements are not available, both their armies will be in extreme danger.
Because the Jin army was too far away and the Qiang soldiers were too close.
Now, the allied forces of Jin and Qin can be said to have penetrated deep into the territory that they want to control. After Qinzhou City, more cities are controlled by Yao Qiang.
They have enough troops to come for reinforcements, not to mention that both father and son Yao Chang and Yao Xing are now stationed in Qinzhou City.
The soldiers under my command can't do it even if they don't work hard.
With the reinforcements of powerful Qiang soldiers, how can the Jin-Qin coalition solve the current problem?
"General Zhu, we are guarding this remote place to provide cover for the Northern Expedition. Now that the opportunity has arrived, I am fully prepared to hold back the Qiang soldiers even if I sacrifice myself.
"
"You have served Di Qin for many years, and the soldiers and horses under you are still counting on you for their livelihood. You don't have to follow me and take risks."
After beating away the Qiang soldiers outside Tianshui City, Wan Quan suddenly said something like this. Before Zhu Xu could say anything, his soldiers had already jumped out.
"Does General Wan look down on his brothers?"
"You dislike the brothers who have been working under Di Qin for several years and have no spine or ambition?"
In front of Wan Quan, Zhu Xu's men looked fierce and their eyes widened, as if they wanted to eat people. Wan Quan quickly explained: "Brothers have misunderstood. How can I look down on you? I have also served under Di Qin for many years.
Say, everyone is the same."
"It's just that going to Qinzhou is extremely dangerous. We don't know when the Northern Expedition army will catch up with us and come to reinforce us. I'm just worried about you and don't want you to die."
These were Wan Quan's words from the bottom of his heart. It was precisely because he regarded these soldiers as his own that he persuaded them and did not want them to be in danger.
After all, Qinzhou City is extremely dangerous, and the main force of Qiang soldiers is stationed there, so their troops will definitely be fiercely attacked by the defenders.
Whether we can persist and how long we can persist is still unknown.
Now Zhu Xu still represents Di Qin. Although the two sides have agreed to unite, it is still the Jin army's own job to seize Qinzhou City.
There is also an implicit meaning in this, that is, if the city of Qinzhou is captured, it can only be regarded as the Jin army's, and Di Qin has no control over it.
Although Qinzhou and Di Qin seem to have some connection, at least judging from their names, will Qin Bing agree?
If they don't agree, it's better to separate here as soon as possible. Tianshui City can be handed over to the Qin soldiers to guard it, which can also be regarded as an explanation to Fulong.
As for Qinzhou City, of course it belongs to whoever captured it!
"General Wan, there is no need to say more. If these brothers can follow me out, they are already determined to die."
“Wherever you can go, we can go too!”
"We are also Jin troops!" Zhu Xu said impassionedly. These words have been held in his heart for many years.
He couldn't speak out. Even the high officials in Di Qin probably knew his true thoughts, but they would not let him go, let alone fulfill him.
Today, Zhu Xu has gotten a chance, so why would he shrink back?
"All right!"
Wan Quan was relieved. In fact, he was just testing them to see if their will was strong enough.
After all, fighting is not a matter of one person. Even if Zhu Xu is determined, there is no guarantee that all his soldiers will be of the same mind as him.
"Now that brothers have decided, let's move towards Qinzhou City together."
"General Zhu, what I mean is that we must attack Qinzhou City quickly and without delay."
"Our troops are limited. If we want to provide support to the Northern Expedition, we must go all out. The Qiang soldiers are well-supplied. Once we give them a chance to breathe, they will immediately gain the upper hand. Delay is of no use to us.
benefit."
"If we delay for a long time and cannot replenish our troops, the supplies of the Qiang soldiers will come rushing in!"
"you're right!"
"We just have to try our best to kill the enemy. The more we kill, the less dangerous King Langya and the others will be!"
This is something they have reached a consensus on, and now, when they actually go to the battlefield in Qinzhou and fight with the Qiang soldiers, they realize that no one is lying, they are just going with all their might!
Wan Quan led the Jin army to fight fiercely with the Qiang soldiers. On his flank, Zhu Xu also led the Qin soldiers to the gate of Qinzhou City.
After the ladder was set up, the soldiers climbed up the steps. Countless arrow clusters and stones flew downward above their heads. The soldiers could only climb up as much as possible without even daring to raise their heads.
As long as they raise their heads, their will will be shaken.
When you see those huge rocks flying towards you, who can guarantee that you will not be afraid, and who can continue to climb up?
No one is a saint!
However, just keeping your head down like this and not giving up is enough to be on par with the saints!
Who can abandon life and death in the face of mortal danger?
If he can do it, then he is a sage. If he cannot do it, it doesn't matter. It can only be said that he has no chance to be a sage and can only be a mortal.
As we all know, the vast majority of people in the world are just mortals.
Although the Qin soldiers also held weapons in their hands and tried their best to resist the arrows and rocks flying above their heads, after all, they still had to climb up desperately. With their hands and feet using both hands and feet, there was still very little danger that they could block.
Many soldiers were beaten down before they even touched the edge of the tower, and many of them even fell by mistake.
However, in order to buy more time for the Northern Expedition, the brothers still worked hard. They must prove themselves in this Qinzhou battlefield.
