Chapter 794 Mount Tai collapses, the color does not change
The sound of horse hooves, howling people, the sound of crossbow strings changing from tight to loose, the miserable neigh of a defeated horse raising its hooves and screaming towards the sky... The transition between movement and stillness is so fast, so fast that it is dizzying, but it is extremely detailed expression.
It shows the cruelty and intensity of war.
The losers appropriately showed shock and horror. They were fully mentally prepared for the outcome of the charging warriors, but no one could have imagined that these warriors would be wiped out on the way to the charge.
Way to destruction!
After the shock, there was a chill that seeped out from deep in the bone marrow. It was bone-chilling and could not be dissipated.
Under such favorable conditions, even the cavalry could not rush forward. How many lives would it take to fill up the steel jungle formed by powerful crossbows?
The most shocking thing is not the power of the crossbow volley, but the quality and mental outlook displayed by the Qingzhou Army soldiers at the last moment.
Starting from a stop, the movements of thousands of people are like one person, uniform and orderly.
The officer issued a total of four orders, and each order had an immediate effect. The simple shouts, because of the performance of the responders, actually gave people an illusion, as if these people were not an army, but a group of artists.
A very rhythmic dance is being performed.
This dance was so graceful and elegant that the performers were so engrossed that they completely forgot that they were on the battlefield, facing hundreds of cavalry rushing towards them. Therefore, they showed no panic at all and calmly defeated the enemy.
Annihilate on the road.
No matter Wu Yan or Qi Zhou, what surged in their hearts at this moment was not anger, nor was they thinking of revenge. Except for the coldness caused by shock, their minds were blank and they were completely lost.
The ability to think.
It wasn't until in the Qingzhou army formation that passionate horns sounded, and several groups of infantry retreated toward each other, revealing several passages more than ten feet wide, Wu Yan and Qi Zhou suddenly woke up and shouted: "No! The Han army's attack
The cavalry is going to come out, retreat, retreat quickly!"
After shouting, the two men turned their horses and fled at the lead. Their shouts were timely, reminding others: take advantage of your illness to kill you, the Han army is about to counterattack.
The group of barbarians were so distraught that they lost their previous provocative arrogance and became scattered on the spot.
"You're a clown, but you don't think too highly of yourself." Wang Ze sneered, waved his hand and said, "Okay, ignore them and continue on your way."
"Oh!" Yu Lin's soldiers responded in unison, with no hint of joy or complacency in their tone.
The army suddenly accelerated and rolled towards the east.
"The admonition written by the prince in the military academy: Taishan collapses in front but does not change its color, elk rises to the left but does not blink, then you can control your interests and wait for the enemy. I have always thought that it is just for inspiration and introspection, but today I see it.
You know, it turns out that human power is endless, and flesh and blood can really be turned into refined steel."
Not only were the enemies scared to death, but the students in the army were also shocked.
To be honest, this time is not a big scene. There are less than a thousand Hu Qi around the army. Even if they are unprepared and all the Hu Qi rush in, the army will not be really defeated.
Compared with the Battle of Ma Tiliang that they witnessed and participated in, this time it can only be regarded as child's play. At that time, the battlefield was full of thousands of horses galloping, thousands of arrows fired, and the scene was extremely majestic.
Seeing hundreds of Hu cavalry coming forward being covered by arrow formations, being shot to pieces with spears, being cut down like wheat by powerful crossbows, and finally being wiped out in ashes in front of the shield wall and the forest of spears, the students were excited, their blood boiled, and they thought to themselves
I will never forget this scene in my life.
Ordinarily, after experiencing such a big scene and seeing the powerful formation of the Yulin Army, no matter what happens again, you shouldn't be too shocked.
However, what they saw this time was another kind of strength, the strength that was calm and unhurried, the strength that in an understatement, the strength was reduced to ashes, the strength that was extremely focused and unmoved by external objects!
Now that the navy has not yet taken shape, there are no opponents worth mentioning, and the staff still only exists in Wang Yu's imagination, infantry and cavalry warfare is the most important subject in the military academy. And every time we talk about infantry and cavalry,
As for tactics, some classic battle cases will always be mentioned repeatedly.
The Battle of Ma Ti Liang was a special case. Due to the terrain restrictions, Hu Qi could only bite the bullet and attack the Han army's array head-on. Facing the overwhelming equipment advantage of the Yu Lin Army, they could only sink in the sand. Really impressed by the students
Considered the most classic battle of infantry and cavalry, the battle of Jieqiao was the first to reach the dead.
Although there were factors in that battle that Gongsun Zan underestimated the enemy and Jushu was scheming, but to be fair, even without the influence of these factors, Baima Yicong would not have been able to rush to the camp first. Even if the two sides did not fight in formation, but encountered the opposite direction, the result
It won't be much different.
The strength of the cavalry is, on the one hand, its mobility as fast as the wind, and on the other hand, its powerful impact.
These are objective factors, and there are also subjective factors. When seeing the cavalry rushing over like a wave, even the most courageous people will be trembling and sweating profusely. Although not every army will be the same.
The cavalry charge would definitely have a strong suppressive effect on the enemy's morale.
For a well-trained army that remains prepared for war, this suppressive effect will not be too great. But for an army that rushes into battle, it is quite fatal.
For example, in the Hebei War that year, when Zhao Yun reinforced Taishi Ci, the reason why the two troops of Zhang Yang and Lu Kuang brothers did not even block a single encounter was that their troops were not too weak. The main reason was that before turning to face the enemy, they
I got into trouble first.
The army is a whole. If one person messes up, it will lead to chaos. The spread of chaos is very strong, and local chaos will quickly expand to the entire army.
Students have drawn a conclusion from previous wars, including the Battle of Jieqiao and the Battle of Juyong. When infantry fights cavalry, they can have no formation, but they cannot have no order. As long as everyone fights to the death and fights bravely,
In the past, the gap between infantry and cavalry was not completely irreparable. The first climbers and yellow scarf warriors were undoubtedly verifying this truth.
But today, they saw another form of infantry.
The infantry of the Yulin Army did not have the majesty of the soldiers who climbed up first and shouted to die without turning around, and looked at death as if they were home. They did not have the incredible disregard for pain and fear of death like the yellow scarf warriors. They always remained silent, as if they were a group of lifeless people.
Like a marionette, it just moves according to the orders.
The Wuhuan people were not good at the art of war, but the students could see it clearly. When Wang Ze gave the second order, which was to order the soldiers to turn around and fight, in addition to abandoning their weapons and holding crossbows, some Yulin soldiers also did
A retreating action.
The effect of this action is that the fighting Yulin army has set up a flying geese formation that is not obvious. The effect is naturally to make the volley more powerful. It is common sense among military strategists that the flying geese formation is beneficial to long-range attacks. In the military academy, it is
A simpler way to put it: crossfire coverage.
When the cavalry rushes into battle, they mainly defend the front. They will hold up their riding shields and hide as much as possible behind their horses. Horses have stronger vitality than people. Even if they are hit by an arrow, as long as it is not fatal, they will not fall down immediately.
, but will continue to run for a certain distance. Therefore, even light cavalry will provide certain protection on the front of the war horse.
The advantage of cross-firing is that it avoids the more defensive front and attacks from both sides at the same time, making the attacked unable to resist or dodge. The cross-fired net doubles the power.
When the enemy had already rushed to a distance of about a hundred steps, such a calm and leisurely response was what chilled Wuhuan the most and shocked the students.
Originally, they thought that Wang Yu's motto was for them, the young military officers, to cultivate their general style, but now they see that their understanding seems to be very wrong.
Think about it, if every soldier has the style of a general who can remain calm despite the collapse of Mount Tai, it would be strange that such an army is not strong.
Thinking like this, the students lost the courage to continue asking Wang Ze for advice, and instead started discussing with each other in low voices. The scene just now was enough for everyone to digest for a long time.
"I had known that General Wenze was very strict in running the army, but I never imagined that he would stop here! Such talents are really unmatched. And if you think about it carefully, General Wenze is not considered a top talent in Qingzhou. Alas, suddenly
Suddenly, I no longer have any confidence in my heart.”
"Why did Zeng Xiandi say this? Don't you know the past of General Wenze? He also started from a small soldier and accumulated merits. Later, after being inspired by the Hussars General, he soared into the sky. Although his military exploits seemed not as good as those of the others.
He is so illustrious, but that's just because he is humble. Don't you hear that General Hussar often calls him General Big Tree? Haha, in fact, General Hussar's instructions are the regulations taught in the academy!"
"Is that so? Oh, I almost made a mistake without Brother Zhou reminding me. I'm so ashamed. I'm so ashamed."
"That's okay. It's true that people have different levels of talent. Boyan said before that General Wang and the others had already had countermeasures, but even now, I haven't fully understood... Governor Wang's so-called success rate is not
Could it be that they lured hundreds of Hu cavalry to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys? When the Hu cavalry dispersed, there were no cavalry to pursue them? Isn’t it strange?”
"If you think about it carefully, it's true. Although the soldiers of Yulin responded quickly, the effect of hasty formation is limited after all. There are only less than a hundred barbarians here today. They can kill them all cleanly, in case the barbarians eat them.
What if you have the savvy to mobilize more people to harass? Not sending out scouts or setting up an investigation network is not a long-term solution after all."
"Could it be that the Yulin Army can further change its formation on top of the crossbow formation? It doesn't matter how many Hu Qi come?"
"Can it still change? It's impossible, right? Even if General Wenze has such commanding power, there won't be enough time, unless..."
"unless?"
"Unless it's what Wang Qiaoqi said, the formation that can overcome the cavalry's charge with a suspended formation..."
Everyone's eyes widened and their breaths stopped. No one had heard the name of that formation, but since it was the original creation of General Hussar, it was not surprising that it was used in the hands of General Wen Ze.
If this is the case, then the harvest from this trip will be endless! The students immediately recovered from the shock, and their eyes became eager, hoping that Hu Qi would come back soon and attack in a big way.
There were only two people who did not join the discussion. Lu Xun had been frowning and thinking about something, while Xu Bin had been observing him.
Xu Bin himself was puzzled, and it seemed that the strange behavior of the Storm Cavalry in not launching a counterattack also caused trouble to the young genius.
Seeing this, Xu Bin felt a little relieved. In fact, he also felt frustrated at losing his self-confidence. However, he was not so ambitious as to compare with Yu Jin and other Qingzhou generals. The object of comparison was his classmate Lu Xun.
Since neither of them has figured it out, it means that the gap is not too big. If they work harder, there is still hope of catching up.
Thinking this way, he felt relieved. At this moment, Lu Xun, who had been frowning and thinking suddenly, made a move. The young man looked up at the sky, and then looked at the end of the smoke a few times. Then, he kept frowning.
His brows opened, and a self-satisfied smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
Xu Bin's heart was shocked: Has he really figured it out? What has he figured out? What are the generals' back-up plans... (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
