On the viewing platform, Mao Yuanyi bowed his hand to Li Shaoyou and said with a smile: "General Li, I have conceded." ”

Li Shaoyou's face was not good-looking, he arched his hand and didn't say a word, he wanted to teach this surnamed Mao a good lesson for the teacher Sun Yingyuan, but he didn't think that he would plant it, it's really not a taste.

Zhu Cihong said: "Mao Yuanyi, your tactics are good, but if you rely on this alone, I'm afraid you can't talk about any talent!" ”

Mao Yuanyi said with a smile: "Your Highness, if this is all there is, the last general will not need to train for three days, and the last general begs His Highness to compete again!" ”

"Your Highness, let the last man try!"

The person who spoke was Huang Degong, and he wanted to personally learn Mao Yuanyi and take the opportunity to retaliate.

Zhu Cihong nodded and said, "Yes, compare again." ”

Mao Yuanyi clenched his fists and said, "Master Huang, please advise!" ”

"Please!" Huang Degong hugged his fist casually, his eyes full of confidence.

At the beginning of the second battle, as soon as the war drums sounded, the two sides advanced at the same time, and in order to prevent the previous battle from repeating the mistakes of the past, Huang Degong also prepared a row of shield soldiers.

The number and configuration of the two sides are almost identical, the only difference is that the wooden bayonet of Mao Yuanyi's department has been installed on the fire gun in advance, and it is said to be a bayonet, but it is actually the spear stick mounted on the fire gun in the early Ming Dynasty.

Seeing that Huang Degong wanted to fight according to the previous tactics, Mao Yuanyi smiled slightly, and when the two sides were fifty paces apart, he suddenly ordered the whole army to advance at full speed.

This kind of command makes everyone puzzled, is Mao Yuanyi going to give up the fire gun and fight in close quarters with his face? But where is the advantage?

After only one round of firing from Huang Degong's unit, the soldiers were ordered to install "bayonets", because the two sides were too close to each other, and it was too late to install them when the other side rushed up.

Mao Yuanyi's department soon came within ten paces, and at such a distance, both sides issued orders for hand-to-hand combat, and the soldiers on both sides also raised their weapons and rushed towards each other.

Zhu Cihong saw very clearly from the viewing platform that Huang Degong was stabbing in a row according to the row of stabs when the Tianwu Army practiced bayonets, standing in a row of vigorous stabs, and the movements were neat and consistent.

And Mao Yuanyi's formation is a team of ten, a bit like the Mandarin Duck Formation of the Qi Family's Army, but not exactly.

Zhu Cihong once also wanted to train the Qi family's army's mandarin duck formation, but he valued firearms more, and the firearms allocation rate of the Qi family's infantry barracks was between 40 and 55 percent.

However, Zhu Cihong demanded that more than eighty percent of the Tianwu Army's infantry be equipped with firearms, and even completely abolish shield soldiers and pikemen, and develop towards the goal of allocating firearms to all personnel.

The mandarin duck array needs shields to be used with long cold weapons such as spears and wolf whisks, which is somewhat in conflict with Zhu Cihong's concept of firearms.

Unexpectedly, Mao Yuanyi lined up the musketeers armed with bayonets into a mandarin duck formation, which surprised Zhu Cihong, and he continued to watch the battle to see how much combat power this musketeer combination of mandarin duck formations could play.

Huang Degong's style of play is very strong, he doesn't dodge at all, he doesn't parry, no matter how the other party makes a move, the soldiers he commands are a trick to line up and stab and stab, simple and rude, it is simply a lose-lose style of play, if the opponent has a low bearing capacity, he would have been frightened to throw down his weapon and run away.

The stabbing action practiced by the Tianwu Army seems simple, but in fact, before the gun, he protected his neck and facial vital parts, and his abdomen was protected by armor, and it was okay to take a hit, whether it was against the Qing army and the rogues, he had an advantage, and he tried and tested repeatedly.

The same Tianwu Army, the soldiers commanded by Mao Yuanyi naturally also knew, but they were different from the previous tactics, in front of each group there were two shield soldiers as a cover, specifically to resist the opponent's attack, that is, the meat shield, after the opponent's attack was blocked, the musketeer with a bayonet only went up to stab a few times, and returned to hide behind the shield soldier after the stab, which was very obscene.

"Cowardice!" Huang Degong snorted and gave the order to advance: "Attack, defeat in one fell swoop!" ”

Mao Yuanyi saw the other party advancing suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he commanded the soldiers to start retreating, but he always maintained a tight formation according to the team.

Huang Degong's soldiers began to change their formation when they rushed forward, and the soldiers who originally rushed in a row had become a little scattered, fighting separately, after all, it was a melee fight, unlike the platoon guns that had a unified order to fire.

When Huang Degong's department began to attack, the various small mandarin duck formations of Mao Yuanyi's department remained unchanged, protected by shield soldiers in front, and a few pikemen in the back stabbed out when they were in the middle while retreating, even if someone in the team was knocked down, the soldiers behind would immediately make up for it, and continue to maintain the formation.

Each mandarin duck formation relies on the division of labor and cooperation of each soldier, and there are few opportunities for individuals to stand out, and it has been proved that an organized organic team cooperates with the battle, far stronger than the same number of chaotic skirmishers, just like a 5v5 battle game, the equipment and technology are not much worse, the most important thing is to see which side cooperates better.

I only heard the sound of screams constantly coming from the big church, and people kept falling to the ground, and most of the people who were knocked to the ground were soldiers commanded by Huang Degong.

After a stick of incense, the 1,000 people commanded by Huang Degong were basically scattered, and Mao Yuanyi commanded the orderly continuous advancement of each formation, and finally obtained Huang Degong's military flag.

The whole process lasted for two pillars of incense, and the battle loss ratio between the two sides reached an astonishing one to two.

The same army, the same general, receiving the same training, eating the same meal, the original combat effectiveness is about the same, but now there is such a gap, everyone knows that this is Mao Yuanyi's battle formation has played a role, and the generals on the viewing platform originally looked at Mao Yuanyi with no longer the contempt before, but began to gradually face it.

"This surname Mao is not simple!" Xu Sheng said secretly in his heart.

Mao Yuanyi bowed his hand to Huang Degong and said: "Master Huang, accept it!" ”

Huang Degong said: "Let a fart, Lao Tzu loses and loses!" ”

Mao Yuanyi smiled embarrassedly, and at the same time secretly exclaimed in his heart, the combat effectiveness of the Tianwu Army was really powerful, if he didn't use the Tianwu Army, but used other armies to fight against the Tianwu Army, he would be vulnerable at all.

"Which other general is going to try?" Mao Yuanyi swept towards the generals, and his arrogant mentality was revealed again.

Cao Bianjiao said in a deep voice: "I'll fight against you against cavalry!" ”

"This ......" Mao Yuanyi was a little stunned all of a sudden, cavalry combat is his weakness, if he temporarily drills a horse formation, I don't know how long it will take, and the most important thing is that in the face of General Cao, who is currently the fiercest cavalry in the Ming Dynasty, Mao Yuanyi is even more bottomless......

Zhu Cihong said: "Okay, let's stop here for today's martial arts battle, if you continue to compare, you will hurt your peace." ”

Mao Yuanyi also knew that he would accept it when he saw it, and his posture was lowered a little, no longer like before, his ability had been demonstrated, and he had also given it, if he wanted to integrate into this group of young people, it was not possible to pose as an uncle.

Zhu Cihong looked at Mao Yuanyi and said, "This palace sees that there are a lot of formations recorded in the "Wubei Zhi", why do you pay attention to studying the formations?" ”

Mao Yuanyi said: "Back to Your Highness, the ancient formations have been lost, and the descendants will make up nonsense, and the end will study various formations and draw these formations, the purpose is to clear the source and correct the hearing." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded, and said, "Vice General Mao, you are so powerful, why don't your own men and horses have such combat effectiveness?" ”

Mao Yuanyi said embarrassedly: "The last general is only good at arranging formations and coping, and the least good at training, there are no good soldiers, the talent of the last general is really difficult to play one or two percent, I heard that the Tianwu Army is an elite division, strict discipline, the last general is hereby thousands of miles away to visit." ”

Li Shaoyou was puzzled: "There are a lot of training methods in your military books, why don't you know how to train soldiers?" ”

Mao Yuanyi said: "General Li, military training is different from reading military books, even if you want to train an imaginary strong army according to the method of military books, it is also very difficult, and the influencing factors and resistance are too great, countless generals have tried throughout the ages, and only a few have succeeded?" It is difficult to train a strong army! ”

Zhu Cihong knew very well that if you want to train into a strong army, discipline is the first, and if you want to maintain discipline, generals must be fair and just, and cannot be partial, which is difficult for ordinary people to do.

Sun Yingyuan, who knew this truth very well, did not do it, when he led part of the Yongwei battalion south to pass through Xiao County, the soldiers in the battalion robbed the people's food, he did not achieve fairness and justice, the reason is understood, and the discipline is also there, but he can't bear to start, tolerance will happen the first time, and the discipline of the army will also be dispersed.

Zhu Cihong said: "General Zhou, this palace heard that your third division and third brigade still lack a brigade commander, right?" ”

Zhou Yuji replied: "Yes, there are not many people who have made meritorious contributions to the last general, and the current candidate for the brigade commander of the third brigade has not yet been decided, and the deputy brigade commander will take over for the time being." ”

Zhu Cihong said: "This palace plans to arrange Mao Yuanyi in your third division, what do you think?" ”

Zhou Yuji hugged his fists and said: "It's all up to His Highness's arrangement!" ”

Zhu Cihong nodded with satisfaction, he arranged Mao Yuanyi in the third division, and Zhou Yuji, who has always been strict in governing the army, complemented each other, which couldn't be better.

"The last general thanked His Highness!" Mao Yuanyi was extremely excited in his heart, he finally entered the legendary Tianwu Army, and he also mastered five thousand people!

Mao Yuanyi's heart was full of pride, with such a strong army as the foundation, with his own talents, he would return to Liaodong in the future to kill the Quartet and recover the lost territory, just around the corner!
