Chapter 536: Formation to Resist the Enemy

"Soldiers, stop it, don't be afraid!"

In Han Sui's mansion, Han Sui shouted hoarsely. A first-class guard of the Youzhou branch led five C-level guards to attack and kill him, although the first-class guards were weak in front of Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici and others. However, for Han Sui, the Grade A guards were already a formidable opponent that he was unable to resist.

In this era of war, a military general, whose strength has reached the third-rate level, can serve as a commander or centurion in the army. Second-rate generals can serve as dubo or captain, that is, they can command 500 to 1,000 soldiers; as for first-class generals, they can serve as captains or generals, and there is no doubt that the top generals are basically generals. Of course, all of the above things happen under normal circumstances, and as for some lack of strength, relationships, bribery, etc. are naturally not counted. Just like Xue Rengui in the Tang Dynasty, his strength is definitely strong. However, because he was persecuted by Shangguan Zhang Shigui, he could only end up with the identity of a firehead army. This fact shows that the level of a person's official position is not directly proportional to his ability.

Just like the new military rank system proposed by Yuan Chang, Han Sui's ability is not enough to serve as the commander of a sub-military region. However, Yuan Chang appointed Han Sui as the commander of the Youbeiping County Military Region, not only because Han Sui was a veteran who followed Yuan Chang, but also because of the new military rank system, which was not mainly appointed based on strength.

As for how strong Han Sui's strength is, it is impossible to explain it clearly in words, but look at Han Sui's data.

Yuan Chang was the first to subdue Han Sui, and then Zhao Yun. At that time, in order to verify Zhao Yun's strength. Han Sui wants to compete with Zhao Yun. While Zhao Yun retained his strength, Han Sui fought him for several rounds and was defeated. Thus. Han Sui's strength is definitely not up to the level of a first-class general. If there is a first-class military general's level, it will not be under the condition that Zhao Yun retains his strength. Lost in a few rounds. So, does Han Sui have the strength of a second-rate general?

Historically, Han Sui was the cavalry governor under the command of Chun Yuqiong, a general under Yuan Shao. The so-called cavalry governor, that is, the cavalry captain, is in line with the standards that a second-rate military general can serve. However, it has also been recorded in history that the relationship between Han Sui and Chun Yuqiong is not bad, perhaps. Han Xianneng served as the cavalry governor, and he also had a relationship with Chun Yuqiong. However, Han Sui's strength will definitely not be too bad, at least he has the strength of a second-rate general. Therefore, Han Sui's force is between the advanced level of second-rate generals and the entry of second-rate generals.

The strength of the first-class guards has reached the level of first-class generals, and the third-class guards have the strength of second-rate generals. With Han Sui's strength, facing an opponent who is far stronger than himself and whose five most secondary strength is also equivalent to his own, how can Han Sui cope with it. Not only Han Sui couldn't cope with it, but Yu Ban on the other side was also in the same situation.

Yu Ban's strength is naturally higher than Han Sui. However, Yu Ban's strength did not exceed the level of a first-class general.

If the strength of a military general is expressed by a specific value, a top military general like Lu Bu is 100 military value, while Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Tai Shici, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, etc. are between 95-99, and Lu Bu is considered the peak of a top military general. Zhao Yun and the others are at the advanced level of the top generals, while the strength of the elders of the Shuntian Alliance is the intermediate level of the top generals, with a force value of 90-95, and the strength of the deacons of the branch alliance is the primary level of the top generals, with a force value of 85-90. And so it goes. Yu Ban's strength is expressed in numerical values, that is, at 80. First-class military generals, intermediate level.

In this way, Yu Ban faced a first-class military general's strength of a first-class military guard and five second-rate military general's strength of a C-level guard. Naturally, it is also difficult to parry.

Therefore, in the case of arranging for Han Sui and Yu Ban to face the enemy, Diao Xiuer did not let Han Sui and Yu Ban face the enemy alone. Instead, they selected elite soldiers and horses from among the cavalry under their command to face the enemy, and there were loyal elites to fight the enemy together, and the situation of Yu Ban and Han Sui was naturally not so bad.

"The enemy is nothing but a bunch of hidden thieves, and if you can't even deal with such an enemy, how can you fight against more elite soldiers and horses in the future. ”

Encouraged by Han Sui's efforts, dozens of elite soldiers of the Dongping Iron Cavalry formed a phalanx and surrounded the first-class guards and five C-level guards in the middle. Although you can't kill them in a short period of time, once the soldiers are well coordinated with each other, killing them is as easy as chopping vegetables and melons.

The Dongping Iron Cavalry was built by Han Sui, and Yuan Chang was a cavalry team formed when he was still serving as the county commander in Dongping County. Not only has it been followed for a long time, but it has also been trained for a long time, and its combat effectiveness is naturally extraordinary.

These cavalry elites all have the level of a commander or centurion, that is, they have the strength of a third-rate general, and they can deal with a first-class military general's strength of a first-class guard, and five second-rate generals' strength of a C-level guard. As long as there are no anomalies, there is no problem.

However, things backfire, and nothing in the world is perfect.

"Hmph, it's just a group of ant-like figures, and it is simply insulting to deacon Ben's hands to go out in person. An angry voice rang in everyone's ears.

When Han Sui saw the visitor, his face sank. And the first-class guards of the Youzhou Branch Alliance were naturally happy when they saw the comer. The people who came were dressed in the same style of clothing that was different from their color. Obviously, the other party is also a member of the Suncheon Alliance, and as for which sub-alliance it is, it is not something that the first-class guards can know.

"Your Excellency..."

The first-class guard greeted him respectfully, however, the other party obviously didn't take this first-class guard in his eyes, and he didn't bother to look at it, so he directly waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said sharply: "There is no need to say more nonsense, solve these ants in front of you, and leave early." A group of weak guys, and Deacon Ben didn't even have the interest in making a move. ”

As the deacon's words fell, one of the first-class guards, two B-level guards, five C-level guards, and ten D-level guards who followed him did not say a word, drew their respective blades, and slaughtered towards Han Sui's phalanx.

Han Sui's face was ugly, but he didn't panic because of this.

"Soldiers, change formations and form a circular formation!"

Previously. Because you have a clear advantage. Therefore, Han Sui asked the soldiers to form a square formation. A square formation is a balanced offensive and defensive formation. It is also the best choice to consume the enemy, however, at this moment, the opponent's strength is obviously stronger than your own. Han Sui naturally no longer used the balanced formation of the square formation, but chose to use the circular formation.

The circular formation is mainly defensive, all soldiers form a circle, unlike the square formation, there are gaps in the four corners, which is easy for the enemy to use to make a breakthrough; the circular formation is like a circle, without the slightest edge and corner, no matter which position is attacked, they will face the same resistance. Moreover, by forming a circular formation, the soldiers can also watch and help each other. There is no other way for the enemy to do so than to break through the formation. It can be said that the circular formation is an unusually simple formation, but it is the only one among all the formations that has no weaknesses. Of course, the circular formation is only suitable for use when defending, if the advantage is great, and the circular formation is still used when attacking, it can only explain one problem. The commanding general showed off his head.

The counterpart to the circular array is naturally the conical array. The circular formation is the main defense, and the cone formation is the main attack, as for how to use it. Naturally, it was improvised on the battlefield.

"Humph!"

The deacon who had newly joined the battlefield saw Han Sui put on a turtle shell defense, and immediately snorted disdainfully, and said, "Don't you think that you can block the attack of the guards under this deacon's command in this way." It's a fool's dream. Sons, break this turtle shell for Deacon Ben. Let them see and see how powerful you are. ”

"Kill!"

A group of guards roared and rushed towards the circular formation, just. The deacon's words were very light, and when these guards were executed, it was not so simple.

The individual strength of the guards in the Shuntian Alliance is indeed strong, and if the guards of the Shuntian Alliance are trained into a special class, I am afraid it will become a nightmare for all forces. However, how can a guard who has not undergone training and only knows how to fight on its own and does not understand the application of the formation be able to break through the circular formation laid out by Han Sui? A strong master can easily kill a veteran with rich combat experience one-on-one, but if ten powerful masters also face ten veterans with rich combat experience and use formations to resist the enemy, the ten masters will not necessarily win, and there is a possibility of defeat; moreover, even if they win, it will be a disastrous victory.

At this moment, the situation of the Shuntian Alliance's guards is as mentioned above, a group of powerful guards, facing the elite cavalry under Han Sui's command, long-term training, and experienced combat soldiers, in the case of forming a circular formation, these guards are simply helpless against Han Sui's soldiers.

Each escort attack was met with two or three closely coordinated soldiers, although twenty or so guards attacked at the same time. However, what made them feel strange was that everyone was attacking as if they were facing three or four enemies. In this way, Han Sui's soldiers and horses should have seventy or eighty people. However, there were only more than forty soldiers in front of Han Sui, not more than fifty, what was going on, the guards only felt that their heads were a little unable to turn.

How could these guards know that this was the subtlety of the formation. The cooperation between the soldiers can make the enemy mistakenly believe that he is fighting with more troops than his own, and he will become afraid. The way of the formation is broad and profound, and Han Sui has only learned a little bit of skin. If you use a strong general, it will give the enemy the illusion that one person is fighting all the soldiers of the opposing team. Just like Zhuge Liang, just put some stones, which made Lu Xun and his soldiers and horses feel that they were facing an army of 100,000. Maybe this is an exaggeration, but there is no doubt about the subtlety and strength of the formation.

After a strong attack for a while, the guards of the Shuntian League not only failed to break through the elite formation of Han Sui's cavalry, but also injured many people. The deacon who was watching the battle from a distance was blue and white at the moment.

Just now, he swore that he would easily crack Han Sui's formation, however, now not only did the formation not break, but his own subordinates were also injured, it felt like he stretched out his face, making Han Sui "snap" for a while, and the shame in his heart can be imagined.

"A bunch of waste, even a turtle shell can't be broken, what use do you want!"

The deacon drew his spear and roared slowly toward the circle. His eyes were gloomy as he looked at Han Sui in the center of the formation, and the corners of his lips squirmed, as if he was saying something.

Although he couldn't hear what the other party said, Han Sui understood what the other party meant. The other party was obviously saying that he would personally take off Han Sui's head, and Han Sui was also a little nervous at the moment. Of course, Han Sui was not afraid of death, but the strength of the other party was obviously different from the other guards, and it seemed to be stronger.

This is also natural, and he is also the deacon of the Jizhou branch of the Shuntian League.

has the strength of the primary level of a top general, although it is only the strength of the primary level of a top general. However, he has already stepped on the dividing line of first-class generals and stepped on another level. Although the top generals and the first-class generals are only a thin line, however, the gap between them is undoubtedly a world of difference.

Looking at the battles between the countless generals in the Three Kingdoms, the first-class generals are either dead or crippled in the face of the top generals, and there are very few people who can retreat with their whole body; This shows how big the gap is between first-class generals and top generals.

Not to mention that Han Sui and the elite cavalry under his command are not at the level of first-class generals now, plus Han Sui is the main general, more than 40 people are just a group of second- and third-rate war scum, in the era of the Three Kingdoms, soldiers and generals with such strength can usually only be regarded as cannon fodder, and they may not even be able to receive a box lunch.

No matter how exquisite and powerful the formation is, it is helpless in the face of the absolute strength gap.

"Kill!"

Xiao'er only roared angrily, and the spear stabbed straight at the elite soldiers of the Dongping Iron Cavalry in front of him. The elite soldier saw the spear stabbing at him, but when he wanted to raise his weapon to resist, he found that the spear had already pierced his chest, and the soldier's eyes were full of puzzlement and unwillingness. And the companion next to the soldier reacted in the same way. They also saw the spear coming, but by the time they could make a move, the spear had already left the soldier's body and stabbed at them again. Still without any resistance, the spear easily pierced through the bodies of the two soldiers next to him. Under the only shot of Xiao'er, the circular array was broken by him without any resistance.

"Humph!"

Xiao'er only snorted coldly, and walked slowly towards Han Sui, with murderous intent in his eyes. The reason why Xiao'er is only like this is not only to take down Han Sui's head, but also to make Han Sui succumb in terms of momentum, thus avenging the hatred of being slapped in the face before.
