Chapter Fifty-Nine: Good Birds Choose Trees to Perch Liang is at peace because of horror

That person was Yang Hezhi, a Shu scholar who failed to admonish the Shu lord Li Dang, but was imprisoned.

After the city of Chengdu was broken, Huan Meng, in order to eliminate the resistance of the Shu people and win the hearts of the people, so he promoted the virtuous and capable, and vigorously eliminated the high-ranking children and talented people of Shu.

And a few days later, the staff members gathered under the tent, placed wine in Li Dang's palace, and invited the gentry of Chengdu and the surrounding areas to participate in the banquet.

At the banquet that day, Huan Meng was majestic and refreshing, with a heroic tone, talking about the rise and fall of people since ancient times, the survival and defeat of talents, and the appearance of the emperor, which attracted a sigh.

Because there were Shu scholars who had a banquet, they said that Li Dang was stubborn and cruel, refused to be loyal and good, and imprisoned many Shu Zhongxiu in prison.

When Huan Meng heard this, he immediately ordered the officials to inspect the prisoners in Chengdu Prison, and all those who were convicted for their words were released, and those who were particularly outstanding were also made subordinates. Yang Hezhi and his patriarch Yang Zhouzhi were born together at that time.

Huan Meng talked with Yang Hezhi and Yang Zhouzhi, liked Yang Hezhi's talent, and named him as the board Sima of Fuzhong on the spot, and Yang Zhouzhi as the board to join the army.

Soon after, Xin Er arrived at Huanying.

Yuan Ziqiao suggested that when meeting Xin Er, it was better to call the newly opened Shu scholars over, in order to use this to imply that Xin Er had already won the hearts of the Shu people, so as to add a bargaining chip to the matter of returning to the Sword Pavilion.

Huan Meng was as good as a stream, and adopted Yuan Ziqiao's suggestion.

Therefore, to put it mildly, Yang Hezhi, Yang Zhouzhi and others have actually met with Xin Er a few days ago.

However, in the meeting a few days ago, Xin Er did not leave a particularly deep impression on Yang Hezhi and others in other things except for the act of turning around and leaving the account the day before, but it was the great talent and immortal Fu Qiao, who only heard his name and did not see him, and wrote the two masterpieces of "Shu Dao Difficulty" and "Goose", which made them fascinated.

Unexpectedly, today's Jingzhou soldiers' tiger ben gathered, Huan Mengming's helmet and armor, and the momentum was violent, in contrast, Xin Er's scarf, crane, holding fan clogs, such as Yan Ran traveling, only with Li Liang alone, but when answering questions with Huan Meng, he did not fall behind at all, his words were gentle, and he was as implicit as a knife.

Such a heroic figure is the only one Yang Hezhi has seen in his life.

Yang Hezhi's eyes lingered on Xin Er, and he thought in his heart: "I have also heard the name of Dingxi Xin's young book, what I heard in the past, the rumors are mostly his martial arts, I thought he was just a general, and today he looks at it, like a hero!" ”

He peeped at Huan Meng's strong back, his thoughts fluctuated, and thought, "Huan Jingzhou is also the master of the Ming Dynasty, but Jiang Zuo is heavy in the Central Plains, and he often scattered his letters yesterday, read his text, and was quite angry. Huan Jingzhou made me a board Sima, as if he wanted to be of great use, and the person in power in his house, Xi Tang Shi, was afraid that when I followed him to Jingzhou, he would eventually scatter as usual, and it would be difficult to raise his eyebrows. Rather....... ”

"Chang Sancai", is the wise man of Shu Qin, the word is the same as the name of Zhang Daojiang, also called "Dao General", the family is the surname of Jiangyuan, the world is Fengtian Master Dao, served as the historian of Shu Qin, a few years ago, according to the book edition files preserved in the treasury of Shu Qin, he has written two masterpieces, one is called "Liang Yining Sanzhou Gazetteer", and the other is the history of Shu Qin up to the time, called "Shu Qin Book". Li Dang succeeded to the throne and moved him to a free cavalry attendant.

This person has always been devoted to Jiangzuo. After Huan Mengji's victory at the bridge, he set fire to the gates of Chengdu, and he sent a message to Li Dang to persuade him to surrender. Li deserved to surrender, this person has a great merit. Because he was Li Dang's close minister, when Li Dang was sent to Jiankang, he went with him.

With his family's prestige in Shudi, his own historical talent and his yearning for Jiangzuo, plus his family's belief in the Tao of Heavenly Masters, and the same beliefs as several famous Jiangzuo clans such as the Langya Wang clan, the clan of Wang Yizhi, the assassin of Jiangzhou, he originally thought that after arriving in Jiankang, he might be able to get a good official position, but he was left out in the cold. - Actually, don't say it's him, even that Li Dang was only named a righteous marquis; After the surrender, Li Li, Li Lu and other Li Dang's relatives who also went from Li Dang to Jiankang were not treated as well as Li Dang.

The Yang family also respects the Heavenly Master, Yang Hezhi is also famous, and Chang Dao will have a good relationship with Yang Hezhi, even if he forgets the New Year, he is depressed, so he wrote him such a letter and complained.

wants to use the background, fame and admiration of Jiang Zuo as this "Chang Sanqi", and was beaten into the cold palace, Yang Hezhi thought to himself, let alone him? It's no wonder he's not thinking about it. But he said that Yang Hezhi refused to go out of Shu Qin, not because he had no ambition, but because the Li family was not the master, and now that Shu Qin was declared dead, the only places he could go to were Jiangzuo and Dingxi, if Jiangzuo didn't succeed?

"Instead of stumbling on the river, it's better to go to Dingxi to try."

Yang Hezhi's gaze quietly turned around Xin Er and Huan Meng, thinking like this.

It is true that in troubled times, good birds choose trees to perch, not the lord chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the lord.

Yang Hezhi's careful thinking does not need to be talked about.

That Huanmeng's aggressive questioning was easily resolved by Xin Er.

He was dumbfounded for a moment, and thought, "What is 'Imperial Foreigner'?" "The town is in full swing, and we must grasp Xin Er's words and question Xin Er again.

One person came out of the column and said: "Ming Gong, the three armies have been assembled, and the day will be noon, please Ming Gong order a parade." ”

When Huan Meng looked, he saw that the person who spoke was Yang Hezhi.

Huan Meng was furious, and said in his heart: "Where is your part? ”

Xin Er glanced at Yang Hezhi, pushed the boat down the river, grabbed a feather fan and pointed at the Jingzhou soldiers under the stage, and said with a smile: "Duke Huan, if such tigers and wolves are lined up in formation, advance and retreat with the flag, and stop the battle in response to the drum, what kind of power will it be?" I can't wait. Since Duke Huan invited me to watch the army, then please? ”

Huan Mengxin said: "If I reprimand Yang Hezhi, not only will Xin Agua see my jokes and laugh at my lack of strictness, but also weaken my momentum." That's it, let him see if my Jingzhou soldiers are the strongest soldiers in the world! Thinking of this, he held back his anger, asked Yang Hezhi to return to his original position, and waved his hand, "Beat the drum and wave the flag!" ”

When Huan Meng and Xin Er were talking just now, the sound of the drum horn paused, and then he gave an order, and the drum beat sounded again. The tall and burly flag bearer carried the flags of various colors, approached the edge of the platform, and held and danced. As soon as the flags and drums moved, the 5,000 Jingzhou soldiers in the audience followed.

Battle after battle, the art of war is constant.

Formation, to put it bluntly, is formation, which is a kind of restraint organization for soldiers when fighting on the battlefield.

If there is no organization for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, they will only be scattered and scattered, and the people will fight for each other, and the chaos will be unspeakable, and the end will be self-evident.

A good formation can not only achieve the smooth flow of military orders up and down, but also through the combination of long and short, far and near weapons and chariots and other equipment, it can maximize the combat ability of the soldiers in the formation, in the words of later generations, it is to achieve the effect of one plus one, greater than two.

It is said that Fuxi made a formation with both internal and external circles, the Yellow Emperor changed to the inner circle and the outer square, Sun Wu changed to the inner and outer squares, and there were outer circles and inner squares, and these formations were the most basic. On the basis of these formations, according to different battlefield environments, many large formations can be derived and combined.

The military flag is unfurled, and the war drums are sounded.

Under the command of officers at all levels and under the leadership of military flags, the infantry soldiers on the north side of the high plane changed their formations, shuttled between each other, and formed a formation first.

Looking at it, the whole array is rectangular, slightly convex in front, divided into three ladders, each layer is a phalanx, divided into left and right, composed of warriors holding lances, bows, crossbows, shields and other weapons, the warriors of these three layers, the further back, the more troops; The front of the third floor is flanked by rangers. After three layers, it is the main force of this array, and the number of soldiers is the largest, forming a phalanx, and the lord of this formation will be here, standing under the flag. After the main force, there is still a small phalanx, but there is only one layer, and it is also tied to the left and right.

This array is called the Fish Scale Array, which was created by Zheng Zhuanggong, a small tyrant in the Spring and Autumn Period.

This formation belongs to the offensive formation, and its dominant tactical idea is to break through the center and concentrate superior forces to launch a fierce attack on the center of the enemy formation.

More than 1,000 Jingzhou soldiers, after forming this array, fought with weapons, rushed to kill, and shouted in unison: "Kill!" ”

Huan Meng asked Xin Er: "How?" ”

Xin Er praised: "If the fire is fierce, then I dare to do it!" ”

This is a poem from the Book of Songs. The Tang people regard fire as their virtue, they are still red, and their uniforms are all red, and more than a thousand murderous soldiers are shouting when they enter the battle, which is indeed as fierce as a flame, who dares to stop and fight with them?

Those on the west and south sides of the platform were also foot soldiers.

These two infantry soldiers combined to form a large formation with a much larger fish scale formation on the north side of the high north.

When its formation is formed, it is seen that this formation is outside and inside, there are eight small formations, scattered in all directions, and the eight small formations fall and hook up, and the twists and turns are opposite. Under the command of the military flags and drums in this formation, the soldiers in the eight small formations either advance or retreat, or one or two small formations disperse, or eight small formations gather into a formation. The end is unpredictable, and the people who look at it are dazzled. The drums slowed down, and the soldiers of the eight formations suddenly stopped, and after a series of formation changes, at some point, they had returned to their original positions, and nearly 3,000 people raised their weapons and shouted: "Kill!" ”

Huan Meng looked at him and asked, "How?" ”

Xin Er smiled and said: "This gossip array is made by Sun Bin. Born in the way of yin and yang, it is used to unite offense and defense, and the famous array is also. ”

The reason why the Bagua Array is so good is because of its eight small arrays and the outer square and inner circle. In actual combat, when the enemy comes to attack, you can open and close the small formation, lure the enemy deep, and wait for it to enter the formation, because the formation is circular, eight small formations can besiege it from any direction at the same time, even if the enemy is temporarily strong, it can also be slowly consumed, and as time goes by, the enemy in the formation will be wiped out sooner or later.

To the east of the high platform is the Jingzhou cavalry.

Jiangzuo lacked good horses, not many cavalry, and even fewer armored cavalry.

Yes, the Jingzhou cavalry here is mainly light cavalry, and there are not too many armored cavalry.

However, the formation of these cavalry in Taitung is not a simple cavalry charging array, but a combination of cavalry and chariots to form a chariot and cavalry array.

The chariot was long, with wheels under it, which could be pushed, and the body was covered with cowhide rhinoceros armor, and a shield was erected on the chariot, on which were densely packed with spears, the tip of the spear was outward, and on the outward side of the carriage, there were shooting holes, and inside, there were archers.

This chariot is called the Wugang car. It was invented by a famous general of the previous Qin Dynasty.

This vehicle can be used in field battles as well as for defending cities.

In the previous battles with foreign enemies, there was no shortage of Longzhou soldiers who had seen this car, and there were also a large number of equipment of this car in the Longzhou army.

I saw that in that array, every three or five Wugang chariots were fastened together, and a circular chariot formation was formed as a whole, and hundreds of light horsemen and armored horsemen were on the outside of the chariot array. Under the order of the military flag, the drums sounded, and hundreds of cavalry galloped forward; The military flag waved diagonally, the drum sound changed, the cavalry turned around, and the foot soldiers guarding behind the Wugang car immediately pushed the Wugang car away, waited for the cavalry to enter, and then pushed the car back.

This formation is called the cavalry five army formation, which combines the barrier composed of cavalry and chariots, which can be attacked and defended.

Longzhou Taima, famous all over the world, Huan Meng knew that his cavalry troops must not be as many as Longcai, but his formation, with Wugang car as the cooperation, but he gave full play to the advantages of Jiangzuo's foot battle, or full of confidence, and asked: "How?" ”

Xin Er stroked his beard and groaned silently.

Huan Meng asked, "Why don't you speak?" ”

Xin Er said: "I was thinking about one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"This cavalry five armies are in good formation, if the opponent is a foot soldier, the attack is to charge with horses, the code is to defend themselves with a car, and the battle can be rampant on the left side of the river, but if it is a confrontation with the northern captives, the northern captives are cavalry, and many armor cavalry, not afraid of arrows, drive five thousand armor cavalry and surround this formation, and rush to it. How can the public respond? ”

"This ......"

Huan Meng was dumbfounded again.

Xin Er inserted the feather fan into the back of his neck, stretched his arms, and said with a smile: "Under the governor's account, I know the essence." After watching the array for a long time, I had some itchy hands. Please give the governor a pair of bows and arrows. ”

Huan Meng signaled, and after a while, a pair of bows and arrows were sent up.

Xin Er caught it and said to Li Liang: "Qing went down a hundred steps to the stage." ”

Li Liang didn't understand what he meant, thinking that Xin Er wanted him to release the arrow target a hundred steps away, so he got off the high platform, walked out of a hundred steps, stood still, and waited for the Shu soldiers to bring him a target.

At this moment, Xin Er raised his arms, his broad sleeves slipped down to his elbows, and he opened his bow to shoot, and the arrow was like a meteor, hitting Li Liang's bun.

Huan Meng's spirit moved slightly, and Yuan Ziqiao and the others all lost their color.

Xin Er put down the hard bow, asked Huan Meng with a smile, and said, "Dugong, how is my archery skills?" ”

Yuan Ziqiao looked at Li Liang anxiously, and Li Liang stood there with no strange expression.

Yuan Ziqiao sighed in his heart: "Looking at the words and deeds of this young man in the past few days, if he is an elegant gentleman, he came to my camp today, and only brought Li Liang alone, Li Liang must be his henchman, but he shot him with a bow, without hesitation, he was so fierce!" Li Liang greeted the arrow peacefully, as if nothing happened, and he was so bold! The lord and the minister are like this, and the matter of Suojian Pavilion cannot be done! ”

Yuan Ziqiao misunderstood Li Liang.

He was not so bold, he didn't react at all, after reacting, he was so shocked that the muscles on his face stiffened, even if he wanted to make any expression, it was difficult to make it, but it was this expressionless face that misled Yuan Ziqiao.
