Chapter 360: Repeat
Wang Qiang followed Yun Zhao, looking at the chaotic battlefield, he couldn't help but said with some contempt: "No wonder Wang Haogu was defeated. Is this the general he relied on? Isn't it good?"
Yun Zhao glanced at Wang Qiang with a half-smile, "Oh, tell me, what's wrong with them?"
Wang Qiang perked up. This was a test for himself. "General, use infantry to fight cavalry. The most important thing is that the formation must be tight. Use a strict formation to resist the impact of the cavalry, but Wan Shichang was unable to restrain his men.
, actually formed such a chaotic situation, which is very detrimental to the infantry."
"Is there any more?" Yun Zhao asked.
"Yes, although Wan Shichang gave up his own advantage and used his own shortcomings to meet the enemy's strengths, he finally fought tenaciously and blocked the enemy's first wave of attacks. Park Demeng should rush forward at this time and defeat the opponent's first wave in one fell swoop.
After the attack, assist Wan Shichang to establish a solid defense line, this is the way to win." Wang Qiang said.
Yun Zhao looked at the battlefield in silence and said nothing.
"General, am I right?" Wang Qiang asked confidently.
"Wang Qiang, if you and Wan Shichang change places at this time, you have already lost!" Yun Zhao said calmly: "Pu Demeng, Wan Shichang has been a veteran for many years. He really has his own uniqueness. Look carefully and learn more.
The experience of these old people.”
Wang Qiang couldn't believe his ears, "General, this, this?"
"You only saw that Wan Shichang did not organize a strict military formation to meet the cavalry, but did you see that when the opponent's cavalry charged, Wan Shichang's troops already showed signs of turmoil, fear, and cowardice?" Yun said
Zhao waved the riding crop in his hand. "The army they command is not our old Anqing border army. The old Anqing border army
Having fought with the Mongolian army for many years, they have long been accustomed to dealing with the impact of the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry. This is probably the first time for these soldiers to fight such a battle, and they are defeated soldiers who have just gathered up. Wan Shichang was able to succeed on the eve of the soldiers' collapse.
It is already remarkable that he aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers! What's more, he also entangled these cavalry."
"As for Pu Demeng, if he goes to rescue Wan Shichang at this time, he will most likely fall into chaos. As you said, he may help Wan Shichang defeat these cavalry. But after defeat, they can
Can they organize a defense line quickly? Or, are they unable to organize a defense line at all?" Yun Zhao looked at Wang Qiang.
"This?" Wang Qiang was speechless.
"If they cannot organize a defense line, then Meng Yuan's main force can attack Huo Zhenting's main formation." Yun Zhao said calmly: "This battle, Huo Zhenting will also lose!"
"I didn't think it through!" Wang Qiang couldn't help but blush.
"Wang Qiang, the way to use troops is to be single-minded. Don't be superstitious in military books, and don't rely entirely on past experience. Sometimes, you can defeat the enemy by adapting to changes. On the battlefield, if you stick to the rules, the chance of defeat will be very high.
Far higher than your chances of winning the battle."
"My subordinate understands!"
Yun Zhao laughed loudly. "I'm afraid it's still too early to explain clearly. Only when you fight more battles or lose several battles will you feel the pain. Only then will you truly understand. Remember, the two sides are responsible for commanding the battle.
Generals are all human, and they will make mistakes. On the battlefield, it depends on whether you can catch the opponent's mistakes, or who makes more mistakes. No matter how careful the plan is in advance, there may be oversights. This is
It depends on the generals’ ability to face the enemy.”
Wang Qiang nodded vigorously.
"Look, Wan Shichang is slowly gathering his men and horses inward, and the first wave of cavalry bypassed them and launched an attack on Pu Demeng's troops. If my prediction is correct, Pu Demeng must have been prepared for them on both wings.
surprise."
Wang Qiang raised his eyes and saw that Meng Yuan's second wave of cavalry bypassed the battlefield in front at an extremely fast speed and pounced on Pu Demeng's troops from both wings. Cold sweat broke out on his back. He made a rough guess.
Look at the opponent's speed. If you follow your previous design, it will be terrible.
"Ginger is old and spicy, so it makes sense!" he muttered.
Pu Demeng's seemingly weak wings suddenly shouted, and rows of archers stood up from the forest of guns, shooting arrows diagonally into the sky. After shooting to the highest point, they turned back and rushed down.
The incoming cavalry was shrouded in it. The screams and the sound of falling horses were heard endlessly. The Mongolian and Yuan cavalrymen waved their sabers desperately above their heads, knocking away the fallen arrows, but there were always arrows falling from the gaps,
One of the cavalrymen was shot to the ground.
After three rounds of arrows, the momentum of the attack had begun to slow down. Pu's army flag was fluttering, there was a roar, the archers retreated, and a thorn-like military formation composed of spears appeared in front of the charging cavalry.
The cavalry flew their horses in the air and hit them hard. This is the classic and authentic traditional mode of infantry attacking cavalry.
Wan Shichang slowly gathered the messy troops together to form a small circular formation. In this chaotic battle, he lost at least thousands of people, and the opponent also left hundreds of cavalry in the formation. It was not a loss.
Well, Wan Shichang thinks the battle loss ratio of one to two, one to three, or even one to five against cavalry is acceptable.
Seeing the third wave of cavalry approaching from a distance, Wan Shichang led his men and began to retreat slowly, pressing towards Pu Demeng's right wing. Botu and his hundreds of cavalry also retreated slowly, he wanted to reserve a
Space, once again launched an attack, but the previous attack was unexpectedly blocked by a flurry of blows from his opponent, making Botu's face feel hot.
Wan Shichang's retreat forced the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry on the right to give way, otherwise they would have become sandwich cakes. Wan Shichang and Pu Demeng returned to the division together, and a larger square appeared in front of the cavalry.
Huo Zhenting let out a long breath, and his formation slowly moved forward, approaching the battlefield. In the distance, Tie Nige's main force was also approaching.
Thousands of cavalry were concentrated on a cross-section of about a kilometer, and their momentum was so astonishing that needless to say, the ground shook and the shouts were overwhelming.
The striker did not break through the opponent, which made Tienig very dissatisfied. The two thousand-man troops returned without success, which frustrated his hope of driving the enemy to attack the opponent's own formation. Even so, Tienig did not have much chance.
Frustrated, even though he was about to encounter the opponent's ruthless military formation, it would only cost him more sacrifices.
In Huo Zhenting's army, the crossbows roared first, and each crossbow arrow as thick as a child's arm forced its way through the torrent of cavalry. However, the slow firing rate of the crossbows doomed them in such a fast attack.
The role it can play in the face of a charge is extremely limited. Tienige obviously clearly understands the rate of fire of the bed crossbow and simply ignores it.
Huo Zhenting looked at the main force of the Tienig cavalry that was rapidly approaching, with a cruel smile on his lips, "Demon-Conquering Crossbow!" he roared in a low voice.
The twenty Demon-Conquering Crossbows hidden in Huo Zhenting's army were launched almost at the same time. Three hundred Demon-Conquering Crossbow Arrows, which were a circle smaller than the crossbow arrows, flew into the air with a scream like a ghost crying or a wolf howling.
When the arrows were first tested, one such crossbow arrow surprised a veteran like Huo Zhenting. Now three hundred such crossbow arrows were launched into the air at the same time, and the roar caused by them was actually the roar of thousands of cavalry on the opposite side.
The thunderous sound of horse hooves was suppressed. Tie Nige looked up at the sky, and saw the crossbow arrows that flew over with a roar and a small tail that flashed red light, "What is this?"
he shouted.
Before he could react, there was a popping sound, and more than three hundred gorgeous flowers bloomed in the air. The fiery red flowers plunged towards the torrent of cavalry with a shrieking sound.
Under Tie Nige's gaze, the soldier who was hit by the arrow naturally fell down. In this situation, if he was not trampled to pieces, it would be because his ancestors had accumulated great virtues. It was impossible for him to survive, but let Tie Nige
What surprised Nige was that the sparks falling from the crossbows stuck to the soldiers' armor and burned more and more. The forwards were instantly panicked.
The screams of ghosts and wolves and the blazing flames made the war horses panic in a moment. Fire has always been something that scares animals, especially when these fires fall and cannot be extinguished. The Mongolian soldiers soon discovered
, when those crossbow arrows flying in the air burn up, some black raindrops will fall down. These water droplets will stick to the armor, and an unpleasant smell will permeate the air. If it touches a little spark, it will burn with a bang.
Come on.
The Demon-Conquering Crossbow was firing continuously, and clusters of sparks exploded in the air. It was extremely beautiful, but when they fell, they caused large areas of damage.
Among Zhen Zhenting's troops, a group of cavalry jumped out. They held a rope bag in their hands, turned it quickly on their heads, and used their horse power to throw it forward. The Mongolian army waved their sabers to kill these black
To their surprise, these objects were not iron mouths or stones with any lethality, but were actually some clay pots. Naturally, the clay pots could not withstand the blow of the steel knife.
Broken, and at the same time, black liquid rushed towards the face.
A row of archers rushed out of the queue, and above the arrows, there was a faint fire, which turned out to be rockets.
The string sounded, the arrows shot out, and the group of cavalry at the front instantly turned into burning men. No matter where the arrows landed, whether they hit the archers or fell on the ground, in short, those arrows
The seemingly inconspicuous flames turned into a conflagration in the next moment.
The attacking Mongolian cavalry and Huo Zhenting's military formation turned into a sea of fire in a short period of time.
Demonic crossbows screamed and danced in the air, and Huo Bu on the ground kept throwing clay pots filled with fire oil forward, and rockets were shot out one after another. Looking at the charge formation that was neat just now, it fell into a huge chaos.
In the chaos, Tienig suddenly thought of
A familiar scene appeared. In Jishan, Wuliqi's three thousand elite soldiers were like this, and his liver and gallbladder were split. The soul-crushing scene once again played out in front of him, and this time the protagonist was replaced by him.
