The two team leaders suddenly understood, clapped their hands, and called the brothers together to seize the time and work quickly.
In the military, speaking well is never as good as doing well. Talking without practice is just a lie and a trick.
And Wang Mi is obviously not a person who can be coaxed.
"Wait!"
"Wait until I finish talking and you can start cleaning up."
The errand was not done well, and the soldiers were frightened and dispersed in a hurry, not knowing where to start.
Seeing how busy they were, Wang Mi felt a headache again.
"fire!"
"on fire!"
Just when Wang Mi was about to reorganize his team and let them collect the three-sided nails in an orderly manner, flames suddenly shot up into the sky farther away than Xiangyang City in the distance.
The soldiers who were about to fight just now were quickly attracted by the blazing fire, and everyone had smiles on their faces.
He Mai walked to Wang Mi's side and looked at the fire: "It seems that Jinu and the others succeeded."
"We have to speed up the progress here and rush to meet them."
He Mai's speech made Wang Mi even more anxious.
"It's easy for you to say. Look at the situation ahead. Can we get up quickly?"
No one would have thought that such a dangerous trap would be set up here. He Mai completely understood Wang Mi's anxiety.
But things must be considered in the long run and properly arranged before they can be easily solved.
He patted Wang Mi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not that difficult."
There was such a determined look on He Mai's lovely round face, and Wang Mi was excited.
"Have you thought of a good idea?"
He Mai's mind is quite bright, and he is full of clever ideas. He is also confused, how could he forget such an important person.
Xiao He, Xiao He, I am counting on you!
Wang Mi's eyes were shining with anticipation. If ordinary people saw him so excited, they might feel guilty.
I was afraid that my idea was bad, that I would not be able to solve the problem properly, and that I would not live up to Xiao Wang's expectations.
But who is He Mai?
Despite his unreliable appearance in daily life, in fact, he uses a cynical surface to hide his ambitions.
In fact, since he can speak, it means that his idea will definitely work.
"Let the cavalry move to the back of the team first, push the infantry to the front, start from where the three-sided spikes begin to appear, pick up the three-sided spikes, and move forward."
"A team of three people can ensure that the three-pointed nails on the front, rear, left and right are all picked up, and no fish will slip through the net."
Wang Mi's eyes lit up: "Three people in a team?"
He Mai nodded: "Exactly, a team of three people, walking in a horizontal row, row by row, should be able to clean all the three-sided nails in just a few rounds."
"After this step is completed, some soldiers have passed the trap, and subsequent comrades can also pass quickly. This can not only save time, but also complete all the errands. In Secretary Wang's opinion, what does this method mean?"
Three people form a team, covering each other. Isn't this the invincible formation in the universe, the invincible three-three system!
Although the three-by-three system adopted this time was not to launch an attack on the enemy, but only to deal with the hidden weapons deployed by the enemy, it was somewhat overkill.
However, if we can take advantage of this opportunity and really experiment with the effect of the three-three system in ancient times, it will be of great benefit to future battles.
"Very good!"
"He Mai, this is such a wonderful idea!"
"Quickly, follow your instructions and go down, I want to watch their operations!"
"Yes, I obey!"
He Mai took the order and started to arrange it without saying a word.
Originally, Wang Mi could have taken care of this matter himself, but he handed it over to He Mai.
Just because this arrangement is more appropriate.
He wanted to witness with his own eyes what the three-three system, the most important battle formation invention in human military history, could evolve into in the hands of the Jin people.
After all, this is the era of cold weapons, and even the same formation will be very different in actual use.
What's more, the formation this time was to clear out hidden weapons, not to attack the city. The most important point was that there was no one responsible for guarding.
In the application of the modern three-by-three system, three warriors are required to hold guns, two are in the front and are responsible for the main attack, one is in the rear, and the three are each other's horns, forming a stable offensive system.
As for the three-by-three formation in the cold weapon era, if you look for a decent template from history, you may want to refer to the Yuanyang Formation invented by Qi Jiguang.
In the modern three-by-three formation, generally speaking, three warriors need to coordinate with each other. Some are responsible for fighting, some are responsible for covering, and some are responsible for supporting ammunition.
In modern warfare, communication is the lifeline. In a three-person formation, there is also a need for a liaison soldier. It does not have to be a professional, but it must be responsible for maintaining contact with other combat groups.
In ancient wars, communication was almost non-existent. Of course, beacon fire and smoke could play a role in communication, but it was not timely at all. On the ever-changing battlefield, it was almost negligible.
Therefore, Qi Jiguang, who was well versed in cold weapon fighting methods, created the Yuanyang Formation as a combat formation.
In the Yuanyang formation, one warrior is responsible for holding weapons and is mainly responsible for offense, while the other warrior is mainly responsible for defense.
The two members of the Yuanyang Formation relied on each other back to back, fighting and defending. On the basis of fully shrinking the formation, it can be said that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the cold weapon era was maximized.
The ultimate purpose of the modern three-by-three system is, on the one hand, to mobilize the enthusiasm of soldiers and enable them to fight fully, and on the other hand, it is also based on saving manpower.
Under the premise that the personnel are relatively weak, how to use fewer troops and occupy a larger territory is a question that every general needs to think about.
However, this trick was certainly not applicable in ancient times.
Marching and fighting in ancient times always marched in horizontal formations. There was no need to form a special team. The soldiers would also line up horizontally and cover the mountains and plains.
On the contrary, before the Three Kingdoms era, the horizontal queues were too loose and spread out too wide, so that the head and tail of the horizontal queue could be almost several miles apart.
For an ancient battlefield with almost zero communication means, this is tantamount to a disaster, and it is certain that the head and tail will not care about each other.
The general's orders could not be passed on at all, the soldiers in front did not know the situation of the soldiers behind, and the people at the head of the team did not know what the people at the end of the team were doing.
Against this background, after years of melee fighting, the ancient generals' strategies for leading troops also made rapid progress.
They soon discovered that there was only one way to ensure that orders were conveyed correctly and quickly and that the soldiers could act in unison.
That is the compression formation. After decades of training, the generals can finally shrink the battle formation so tightly that there is almost no extra open space around each soldier except for the necessary space for weapon operation.
Under this background, using the three-by-three formation will obviously open up the already compressed and mature formation again and make it loose.
Whether such a formation can be applied in the era of cold weapons cannot rely on paper talk, let alone Wang Mi's empty words.
It also depends on the actual application situation, and this time cleaning the three-sided nails is an excellent opportunity.
