Chapter 17: Skill Competition (II)

A month passed quickly, and the armory room named by Zhu Hao himself successfully created the first batch of 20 electric switches under the leadership of Xu Sanduo, Bi Zhonglin was still studying the paper shell bullets, and I heard that it had reached the experimental stage and took a key step. Although the cost of a switch gun and a matching sub-gun is as high as thirty taels of silver, it can be fully supported by the financial resources of the Zhu family, and in the future, with the higher the skill level of the craftsman, the cost will gradually decrease.

Finally, when it was time for the competition, everyone came to the playground early, looking forward to the next competition with excitement.

The players on both sides have lined up and look full of energy, their eyes are full of desire for victory, Zhu Hao nodded with satisfaction, a soldier must have a desire for victory.

Li Dong announced the rules of confrontation, the two sides used wooden knives and guns, wore black armor, the tips of the weapons were wrapped in linen, wrapped in lime powder, and scored by the white dots after hitting the body, the limbs were hit by two points, and the head and torso were hit one point before withdrawing from the battle, each side set up a "camp" and erected a flagpole, whichever side took the flagpole of the other side with the least time and the fewest casualties won.

Although it was Zhu Haoding's rules, it was fair and reasonable, and Luo Yunqu had no objections, and then the two sides were busy arranging the formation, just waiting for the gong to sound.

Zhu Hao glanced at a young man beside him, and the young man took the order flag and stood in the formation, his name was Zhao Yuansheng, who was the vice captain of the team, in the football game, Zhu Hao accidentally found that this kid had a lot of ideas, the ability to accept new things quickly, not sticking to common sense, or one of the few literate people in the team, he was a material that could be made, and he had the heart to temper it, so he let him command this competition.

Luo Yunqu did not deliberately put out any formation, but left thirty people to guard the flagpole, and the rest of the people as the attackers, ready to capture the flag, on the other hand, Zhu Hao's side, there were only two groups of troops guarding the flagpole, and the rest of the people were all in formation, so small that each group was a unit, and each team was not far from each other, forming a large phalanx.

With the sound of a gong and the start of the competition, Luo Yunqu deliberately arranged ten people with outstanding martial arts in the team to serve as spearheads, intending to sacrifice these ten people to break Zhu Hao's formation, and the rest of them took advantage of the situation to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop, he was still very confident in his own individual combat ability.

Luo Yunqu gave an order, and the ten people who served as sharp knives waved the wooden knives and guns in their hands and rushed towards the two groups in the middle of Zhu Hao's army array, using ten people against ten people, trying to eliminate the two groups of the other party in one fell swoop.

Zhao Yuansheng, who served as the commander, did not know Luo Yunqu's intentions at first, and according to Zhu Hao's instructions, he divided the troops into five phalanxes in the front, left, center, right and back, each of which was a small team. The front formation is used as the first line of defense to strike at the enemy's sharpness, so nearly half of this squad is also selected, the difference is that although their individual ability is weaker than the enemy's ten people, they form a military formation, with the tacit cooperation between each other, the four groups advance and retreat to a certain extent, and stubbornly block the two attacks of the opponent's sharp knife team, sacrificing the strength of a group to surround the sharp knife team of ten people.

Luo Yunqu also saw some clues, he was counting on these ten people to tear apart the opponent's defense line, but he didn't expect to fall into an encirclement, and immediately ordered the remaining sixty people to collectively attack the opponent's left and right phalanxes, trying to drag down the elite phalanx in the middle of the enemy at the cost of ten people, so that the large army could crush the enemy's left and right phalanxes with superior forces.

Zhao Yuansheng sensed the enemy's intentions, and also waved the command flag to change the formation, dragging the thirty people on the enemy's right flank with the left formation, and at the same time mobilizing the four groups in the center to circle behind the enemy and flank the enemy's right flank army.

The two sides went back and forth, and they fought happily, and from time to time, the players with white spots sighed and retreated. The fighting is heating up.

The playground was dusty, knives and guns were flying, everyone took out their housekeeping skills, and the people who had left room for their own people were also infected by this atmosphere, and they were ruthless, and in the end, they even greeted the key points with red eyes, fortunately, Zhu Hao expected this before, and gave a death order.

However, despite the chaos, a discerning person can still see that the people on Luo Yunqu's side are all in chaos, fighting separately, some people are surrounded by a group of enemies but can't see their own team members, and some people are crowded together and can't exert their combat effectiveness at all.

Although Zhu Hao's side was also a little chaotic, they all maintained a basic formation, and occasionally some groups were disrupted, and several team members did not fight with the enemy, but quickly converged, back to back to form a triangle, forcing the enemy to have no way to start.

Only a few minutes after the battle began, Luo Yunqu's ten-man sharp knife team was all annihilated, and the record was only six enemies. The right flank army was crushed by the enemy's two flanks on the left and center, and the "casualties" were very large, and although the left flank army gained the superiority on the battlefield, it was unable to annihilate the enemy's living forces in large numbers.

Zhao Yuansheng's tactics were originally to use static braking, drag the enemy's left flank with the right flank, concentrate superior forces to destroy the enemy's right flank first, and then bypass the center line and encircle the enemy's left flank from the rear.

Twenty minutes later, Luo Yunqu's right flank was completely annihilated, and Zhao Yuansheng immediately changed formation, transferred the fresh force of the left flank to the right flank, and surrounded the enemy's left flank.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Luo Yunqu red-eyed, gritted his teeth and said that the troops guarding the flagpole were divided into twenty people in a vain attempt to join forces with the outside and annihilate Zhao Yuansheng's reinforcements.

At this time, Zhao Yuansheng's team members had already vacated the front line, and immediately took over the defense of the right flank, still taking the group as a unit, and quickly entangled the enemy's reinforcements.

Seeing that the main force on his left flank was gradually wiped out, Luo Yunqu wanted to cry without tears, knowing that the general trend had gone, so he simply stopped commanding.

After more than ten minutes, Luo Yunqu's peripheral troops were all wiped out, and the only remaining ten members guarding the flagpole watched the enemy slowly press up and looked at each other, not knowing what to do, and finally threw down the weapons in their hands under Luo Yunqu's signal, disarmed and surrendered!

With the sound of the gong at the end, the fierce battle lasted less than half an hour, and this confrontation ended with Zhu Haofang's complete victory. According to statistics after the game, Luo Yunqu was wiped out except for ten people who surrendered, while Zhu Haofang "killed" 22 people and injured 28 people, which was exactly half of Luo's. After deducting the injured, they are generally minor injuries, and they still have considerable combat effectiveness, and the proportion of Zhu Haofang's actual losses is even smaller.

Zhu Hao smiled: "How is Lao Luo? ”

"The subordinates are convinced, and they swear to follow the young master from now on!" Luo Yunqu was convinced, kneeling on one knee and saying. Originally, he had not been very convinced by Zhu Hao, but this young young master had brought too much shock to himself, and he was completely convinced after this battle.

"The subordinates swear to follow the young master to the death!" The others are also very eye-catching, Zhang Dacheng, Li Dong, Xiao Maoce and others all knelt down on one knee to show their loyalty. Just kidding, our young master is an all-round man in civil and military affairs, unfathomable, and he will be a person who will do great things in the future, when will it be if he doesn't express his allegiance now?

"Big brothers, please get up, the reason why I won this time is not that Captain Luo is too weak, but that the only weakness I have caught is caught, but this weakness is very fatal, that is, they are fighting separately! I hope that you will keep this in mind, treat your comrades-in-arms around you like brothers, trust him, and entrust him with no scruples on the battlefield, so that you can entrust your back to him without any scruples, and carry forward this spirit of mutual assistance and friendship! Zhu Hao said sincerely.

Everyone unconsciously rose a warm current, and glanced at each other, yes, brotherly love is precious, who can be trusted on the battlefield in the future except for their comrades-in-arms and brothers?

"Young master, what you said is so good, I'm going to cry." Li Dong smiled with red eyes.

"you, a big old man disgusts me!" Zhu Hao scolded with a smile.

"I almost forgot, I announced another regulation, starting today, the army will cancel the bow salute, and change it to a unified military salute, no matter whether you see a superior or a subordinate or someone outside the army, all salute the army, and I will demonstrate it first."

After Zhu Hao finished speaking, he stood upright, imitating the military salute of later generations, raising his palms straight to the tips of his eyebrows, usually in front of him, and after the demonstration, he took a few steps forward, and saluted a standard military salute to the large army.

"Wow, young master, so handsome, this military salute is really beautiful." Li Dong praised. He followed Zhu Hao all day long, and also learned a lot of popular words such as "handsome", "cool", "dependent" and other popular words in later generations.

The modern military salute is very beautiful, concise and clear, which can fully demonstrate the tough demeanor and mountain-like spirit of the soldiers. The others also looked at it hotly, and imitated it one after another, and after a while they all learned.

"This military salute is not only a simple etiquette, but also represents a kind of thought, a kind of idea of equality between officers and soldiers in the ranks, I said that in addition to commanding and being commanded, in terms of status and personality, all people are equal, officers can not regard soldiers as ants, soldiers can not regard officers as tigers and wolves, only in this way can we truly be as brothers and truly unite as a whole. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

"Very good, Zhao Yuansheng will serve as my operational staff officer from now on. Now the commanders above the squad leader stay for meetings, and the others disband to prepare for other training. ”
