The land of Hehuang was not as shocking as the Liangzhou Mansion to Jiao Siluo. Everything in Liangzhou City was wonderful to him that he had never seen before.
In the light-hearted transactions between Siqu and the city, a large amount of goods changed hands between the two parties, and everyone was satisfied in exchange for things. Of course, after so many years of development, Siqu and the city not only had things to offer.
There is a way of bartering, and there are also various forms of transactions.
When trading in Siquhe City, you can be assured of the safety of your goods to the greatest extent, because right next to He City is the most powerful place in Liangzhou Prefecture.
Not to mention the government office, which was armed like a fortress, there was even a military camp next to the government office that could be called a military fortress.
That was the camp of the Song Army. Since Jiao Siluo arrived in Liangzhou Mansion, Ye An was not in a hurry to see him. Instead, he had people take him to wander around the city. Jiao Siluo could visit most places at will.
Originally, Jiao Siluo thought that he could not enter the military camp of the Song Dynasty to visit, but in fact he entered easily. Pei Chengwen, the general magistrate of Liangzhou Prefecture who led him to wander around the city, did not stop him. On the contrary, he invited him without hesitation.
He had seen the power of the Song Army, but he only saw the heroic cavalry led by Ding Xiaoyi, but the shock of the cavalry could only be seen when they charged on the battlefield, but the infantry was different.
The Xi Lie Army and the Huaiyuan Army did not have pure cavalry as a co-ordinator. On the contrary, their cavalry was more cooperating with the infantry. This was the infant-cavalry coordination strategy commonly used by the Song Army.
There are no unpredictable formations that Jiao Siluo saw in Han military books, and there is no such thing as the so-called "map formations" in the military system of the Song Dynasty, planning for victory in the temple, teaching disciplines, taking advantage of remote control, the commander following it, and expensive.
"I will supervise you".
There were just some strange military formations that he had never seen before, and unheard of training methods.
"Pei Tongpan, what are the Han men doing? Why are they running around the pillars? Why are they looking over the wooden walls, and why are they climbing across the wooden beams with their arms?"
Pei Chengwen smiled and said: "This is Ye Shuai's military training method. It is not very clever. It is just more practice for ordinary soldiers. In this way, every part of the body can be practiced. It also pays attention to the cooperation of many people. My Han family
Although the men's physical strength is not as good as that of Dangxiang and Liao people, they are far superior to them in other aspects!"
Jiao Siluo nodded and said nothing. He didn't think so. These Song soldiers were extremely physically strong, and their strong bodies could not be covered by their clothes. Even the strong warriors of Tibet were indistinguishable from them.
But these are secondary. The training of the Song army is far more than just physical fitness. The Song soldiers wearing armor are so powerful and scary. Jiao Siluo really can't understand why the Song people are so rich and can conquer all the soldiers in the entire military camp.
All are equipped with armor.
Although the walking armor is not available to everyone, those light armors look no weaker than the walking armor.
All soldiers are practicing how to put on armor quickly. Light armor can be put on by one person, while heavy infantry armor requires the cooperation of two people at the same time.
There was a guy standing nearby shouting from time to time: "Hurry up, any slower, any slower, you'll be dead!"
"You are not allowed to be so polite on the battlefield. I don't care what you did before. Even if you are a scholar who enters my military camp, you must undergo this kind of recruit training!"
"On the battlefield, if you wear this armor, you can't even think about escaping. Not to mention being a deserter and embarrassing your ancestors, even if you want to run, you can outrun the four legs of the barbarians? They don't have such armor on them! If you don't wear armor,
, then it is a dead end on the battlefield, ask! Are you going to die standing, or live on your knees?!"
"Our knees won't buckle!"
The soldiers of the Song Army roared in unison, while Dutou laughed loudly: "Okay, this is the good man of our Xi Lie Army! Our Xi Lie Army cannot lose to the brothers of the Huaiyuan Army!"
Gu Han
A lame man next to him suddenly gave up and said in a loud voice: "Wang Dadao, what the hell are you talking about! How has our Huaiyuan Army not crushed you?! Brothers, start practicing and break the cavalry formation!"
Following the lame man's words, hundreds of soldiers immediately formed a square formation. Such a square formation seemed to Jiao Siluo to be full of loopholes, and he couldn't help but smile.
But his smile soon became stiff, because this seemingly square formation with little defensive capabilities suddenly erected a forest of guns.
A huge spear more than ten feet long was erected, and the tall spear head emitted a chilling light in the sun, as if it could easily penetrate the enemy.
With the sound of the copper whistle in the phalanx, the entire phalanx began to move forward slowly. Anything in front of them would be easily pierced, even the galloping horses.
Without looking at the tragic fate of those straw men, Jiao Siluo knew that although this square formation was simple, it was extremely lethal to the galloping cavalry.
But it would be wrong to say that such a phalanx was clumsy and crowded. With the urgent sound of the copper whistle, all the soldiers quickly put their spears forward into the ground in the gap. At the moment when the corner servants had no time to react,
Then he drew his sword.
The spears are light in texture and not as heavy as imagined. These spears are only for one-time use. Even after piercing the enemy's formation, it is reasonable.
Soldiers wearing armor wield various weapons in their hands to fight. This is the main theme of hand-to-hand combat.
But soon Jiao Siluo was once again shocked by the scene in front of him. Originally, there were hundreds of people in a square formation, but they quickly dispersed after a few short copper whistles.
Not only were they dispersed, but they were dispersed in groups of eight. Jiao Siluo stared closely at the changes in formation in front of him. He had studied and analyzed the Han family's military art for many years, and had experienced countless battlefields.
But the Song troops in front of him gave him a great shock. These Song troops seemed scattered and messy, but in fact they were broken into pieces. After the crowded square formation became like this, many gaps naturally appeared in the middle.
.
Jiao Siluo knew that if the enemy rushed into these gaps and tried to divide and encircle these Song troops, they would definitely die miserably.
The eight people cooperated with each other, some were holding shields and wielding swords, some were using broken spears behind them, some were holding horizontal swords, and even some were carrying several short spears on their backs and constantly throwing them!
Although the eight-man team cannot be said to be invulnerable, they are also invulnerable to water. With their cooperation, the wooden stakes in front of them are cut down like melons and vegetables.
Jiao Siluo believed that if these wooden stakes were replaced by Dangxiang or Tubo people, the result would be the same.
Everything about the Song Army from training to combat, from putting on and taking off armor to the battlefield opened his eyes, but what surprised him the most was the conversation between the two heads.
"Old Wang, these new recruits are pretty good!"
"Nonsense, Liu Laizi wants me to say that the current recruits are getting better year by year. Those veterans have been dragged in for training. By the time they reach our level, hey, you said our Liangzhou Prefecture's military and horsemen will be
What’s the scene like?”
Jiao Siluo never expected that these seemingly well-trained soldiers were actually new recruits from Liangzhou Prefecture!
At this time, he carefully observed the soldiers and found that there was still some childishness in them.
