Chapter 213: Martial Arts (II)

Although Gao Yuan has no expression on his face, he is actually quite satisfied in his heart, and it is not unusual for veterans to do this, after all, since he joined the army, he has paid great attention to the military discipline training of soldiers, and the recruits can also do it, which makes him very proud in his heart, and it seems that he has completely changed the concept of this army. The strict drill of the queue formation is not only for the sake of good looks, but more importantly, it will make an army kneaded into a whole faster, so that every soldier in the middle of it can feel the strength of the collective, and imperceptibly, let the soldiers form strict military discipline. Whether an army can win a battle or not depends basically on their military discipline, especially in this era of cold weapons, when the two sides set up a position and thousands began to confront each other, the shining blades, the dense feathered arrows like flying locusts, and the soldiers who are not tough enough are easy to collapse.

Looking around at the spectators, the look of shock or excitement on their faces made him happy in his heart, and this time the invitation to them to watch the ceremony was preliminarily achieved, at least to make them understand that the army under their command was a strong army, stronger than any they had seen before. Compared with these people who watched the excitement, Bai Yucheng's reflection was even more satisfying to Gao Yuan, this is a big connoisseur, he can see some of the doorways in between. The changes in his face and eyes also represent his achievements in military training.

"Brother Bai, these are just hors d'oeuvres, the next military array drills, infantry and cavalry confrontation, and tactical drills such as foot breaking and riding are the key, you are a big expert, but you need more guidance! Gao Yuan smiled at Bai Yu's enlightenment.

"Don't dare, Lord Gao, your troops have surprised me so much, I'm thinking now how many surprises you have for me. Now where I can afford to guide your troops, I have benefited a lot. It turns out that a unit can be trained like this." Bai Yucheng said sincerely.

The four phalanxes quickly gathered together, slowly withdrew to the sides, and then, the two combat battalions began to practice tactics and confrontation with each other, on the viewing platform, everyone's appetite has been hoisted high at this time, watching the performance of the army in front, everyone is full of expectations for the next various confrontations.

"Lord Gao, there is such a strong army. I, the people of Chima, no longer have to worry about the Donghu people coming to loot wantonly." Zheng Jun took the initiative to walk in front of Gao Yuan, pointed to the energetic army below, and said with emotion: "I have been in Chima for a few years, and the most headache is to deal with the pension and reconstruction after the looting of the Donghu people every year. Seeing the great homeland in ruins under the iron hooves of the Donghu people, that kind of distress and anger. It's really heart-wrenching."

"Master Zheng is right. Only a strong army can allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment, without worrying about everything that has been earned so hard, and it will come to naught overnight, and then the task of defending the people will be entrusted to me. But let the people get rich and live a good life, then it depends on you and Lord Wu." Gao Yuandao.

Zheng Jun glanced at Wu Kai and said with a wry smile: "Fufeng has the Wu family's liquor industry to be marketed throughout the county. This alone has brought countless job opportunities and taxes to Fufeng, and the logistics battalion of the tall army is also helping Fufeng, and the fur and livestock trade are also concentrated in Fufeng, and my red horse is incomparable. It's all some bitter masters who are shaving in the field, and I don't dare to think that they can reach the level of the wind supporters."

"Not really." Gao Yuan waved his hand, "Since Chima and Fufeng are in the same defensive area, they naturally have to work together, the two families have a lot of places to cooperate, and after the Chinese New Year, the three of us will sit together and talk about it, and have a good discussion. "

Wu Kai nodded and smiled: "Gao Yuan, you say yes, that's good, after the New Year, let's get together and talk."

"If that's the case, great! When Zheng Jun heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Okay, let's not talk about this now, let's watch the far-reaching sons perform! Wu Kai smiled and pointed to the audience, "The armor in front of us is strong, and the flag is like a cloud, but we are talking about some copper-smelling things, which can't help but spoil the scenery."

The three of them all laughed, and turned their heads to look at the audience together, Zheng Jun's bitter face finally relaxed.

After the rest of the Fufeng Battalion and the Red Horse Battalion, they once again drove into the battlefield and carried out various tactical drills, this time, it was not just a performance, but a direct confrontation between the two sides, complex formation changes, interspersed, surrounding, cutting, and adjusting the response method for the change of the opponent's formation.

As before, the layman can only watch the excitement, watching the two teams go back and forth, constantly trying to surround and cut the opponent, while the insider knows very well that this kind of confrontation without gunpowder is actually a test of the command ability of the army officers, the ability to deploy the infantry, the ability to control the grassroots officers, and the keen insight on the battlefield.

Bai Yucheng is not familiar with infantry combat, but after all, it is a character who crawls out of the battlefield and the sea of blood and corpses, and he can still gain some insight into some mysteries from it, put himself in his shoes, empathize, if there is a force below that he commands, I am afraid that he has already lost at this time. Because he was observing, the plan he came up with several times was shattered by the reality below, and if one of the commanders of the two sides below was according to his own vision, then the next would inevitably be defeated.

The battle lasted for about an hour, but in the end, it was the Fufeng battalion commanded by Sun Xiao who won, and the Fufeng battalion completed the cutting and encirclement of the Chima battalion, and the confrontation ended.

Sun Xiao Naha was triumphant, and Zheng Xiaoyang and Yan Haibo were as pale as dirt.

At this time, most of the martial arts exercise has been carried out, and the soldiers need to rest in order to recover their physical strength for the second half of the confrontation.

"Zheng Xiaoyang still wants to win too much." Gao Yuan shook his head, "If you want to win, you are afraid of losing, the psychological burden is too heavy, and you will inevitably suffer from gains and losses in command, if he sees the opportunity early, he should shrink and hold on early, so that even if he can't win, he will not be cut by Sun Xiao at the end, so that the Red Horse Battalion will be wiped out by the whole army.

Wu Kai smiled and said, "It's no wonder Zheng Xiaoyang!" Think about it, Zheng Xiaoyang is an old qualification in the army, compared to you, Sun Xiao's qualification is old, if you lose, your face will not look good, and you will see that it is wrong, of course you want to take a risk."

"It's a bad idea! Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "His adventure, if it is on the real battlefield, it is a joke with the lives of soldiers, it seems that I have to talk to him about it."

Under the viewing platform, the sound of horses' hooves, while the infantry was resting, the cavalry led by the infantry began to practice, which made Bai Yucheng feel refreshed, and he couldn't speak in the infantry battle array.

The war horses galloped in the field, before the cavalry came to the field, there were already foot soldiers in the field with a sledgehammer to nail the stumps into the field, on the side of the field, a human-shaped target was also erected, at this time, the cavalry led by the infantry, was in a single column galloping from the front of the viewing platform.

Draw the bow, take the arrow, roar the arrow, and knock down. One by one, the targets were shot to the ground, and when the cavalry rushed over, the hundreds of targets set up had all fallen, and some even had several sharp arrows stuck in them.

The Art of Shooting. This is one of the most difficult skills for cavalry to master.

Returning their bows to the saddle, the horsemen drew their sabers and circled the field, heading straight for the stakes nailed to the field.

The horses are like dragons, the knives are like shooting stars, and between the light of the knives rises and falls, the logs with the thickness of the mouth of the teacup are cut off section by section, getting shorter and shorter, and the horses go and come, and the soldiers on the horses have to bend down to cut the stakes that have become shorter. After a few rounds, the stumps on the field were too short to cut any longer, and the cavalry withdrew their swords and returned. The foot soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, rushed forward, wielding sledgehammers, and nailed all these dark stakes to the ground, level with the ground.

After a little trimming, the cavalry once again flew into battle, this time it was a trick, the cavalry showed their equestrian skills to the fullest, people were galloping on the horses, as if walking on the ground, and the guests on the viewing platform were drunk and infatuated.

Bai Yucheng's performance of the cavalry was not as shocking as the combat effectiveness shown by the thousands of infantrymen, but he always felt that these cavalry were different from his subordinates, but what was the difference, but he couldn't think of it, and he couldn't help frowning and thinking hard.

With the sound of several war drums, the cavalry on the field was closed, and one by one the cavalry quickly gathered, under the leadership of the infantry, lined up into a neat phalanx, and the sabre in his hand was raised high at the same time, and a snowy blade flashed in front of everyone's eyes. Gao Yuan smiled and waved at them, and the cavalry drove away from the viewing platform one by one.

Bai Yu Chenghuo understood, discipline, compared with the horse bandits under his command, these cavalry are not good enough to see, and their individual combat ability is not as good, but they are a whole, and their own commands are individuals with strong individual combat effectiveness, one-on-one, these cavalry are not opponents at all, but ten against ten, they may already have a tie with their subordinates, if it is a hundred against a hundred or even more, I am afraid that they will lose. Thinking of all this, Bai Yucheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his face, and now he finally figured out that in the battle blocked by Thorpe's royal cavalry, he lost for something, the strength of the two sides was about the same at that time, but he just lost, that is, from then on, he had to flee all the way in embarrassment.

The subsequent step breaking riding, foot riding coordination, etc., Bai Yucheng no longer had the heart to appreciate it, and all he thought about in his mind were two words, military discipline. This is probably the difference between being called a horse bandit after so many years of crisscrossing Donghu, and these cavalrymen who are lofty are called armies, right? (To be continued......)
