Chapter 412: Heavenly Soldier Force
"Luda, you went to slaughter Wang Lun! Lin Chong hand it over to me! ”
Wu Song rushed out first, and did not forget to take care of Lu Zhishen's emotions. At this time, on the side of Liangshan, Lin Chong's martial arts should be the highest. On the side of the new forbidden army, there are not many people who can fight against Lin Chong, and Lu Zhishen counts one. However, Wu Song still didn't want to embarrass Lu Zhishen. After all, Lu Zhishen has always been a brother to Lin Chong.
Let Lu Zhishen fight Wang Lun, which is also a move to capture the thief and capture the king first.
"Humph! Act recklessly! Wang Lun could no longer pretend to be that calm, and he changed color. At the sound of an order, the reeds behind him swung in the rain.
The dense rain of arrows, the lethality is indeed amazing, and it poses a huge threat to the new forbidden army.
However, this did not stop the offensive of the new Forbidden Army.
In fact, in this era, as long as there is a war, arrow attack is almost indispensable. Therefore, in the previous training, the new forbidden army had long conducted targeted training on how to deal with the enemy's sharp arrow attacks and how to resist them.
In terms of individual soldiers, the elite of the new forbidden army is second to none in terms of responsiveness among all armies of this era. Although the arrow is fast, it is not as fast as the bullets of later generations. The target of the arrow is also far larger than the bullets of later generations. Therefore, based on the strong physical strength and agile reaction of the new forbidden army, some targeted techniques can still successfully dodge the attacks of some sharp arrows and greatly reduce casualties.
Moreover, despite the strategy of fire attack, for the possible counterattack measures of the Liangshan ambush in the reed swing, it was naturally impossible for the new forbidden army to be completely unpredictable when preparing for the attack before. In the reeds, one of the most advantageous weapons for ambushes to kill the enemy is also an arrow that is both open and hidden.
Therefore, the ships used by the new forbidden army and navy have been treated with some anti-arrows. Some of the boats were originally used to recruit local fishermen, and the boats already had canopies, which were also good defenses to avoid sharp arrows.
Therefore, although the rain of arrows of the Liangshan bandits was amazing and very sinister, the damage to the new forbidden army was far less than expected.
At this time, the canal between the new forbidden army and the main force of the Liangshan bandits led by Wang Lun was only more than three zhang wide. This width can play a considerable role in blocking the fire of the reeds, but it is not too far away for the new forbidden army to attack with all its might.
After all, the elite physical strength of the new forbidden army far surpassed that of all the armies of the era, and they rowed faster than average.
Once the fleet of the new forbidden army approached, the threat of the rain of arrows of the Liangshan bandits in the reeds would be weakened again.
As long as the threat of the rain of arrows can be overcome, once the Liangshan bandits are approached and the soldiers are close to each other, then the combat effectiveness of the new forbidden army will inevitably form a crushing trend.
The strong combat effectiveness of the new forbidden army is the confidence of Wu Song to make a decisive decision and continue to launch a fierce offensive at a critical juncture.
Yes, on the surface, the fire attack plan of the new forbidden army did not achieve the expected effect, but fell into the ambush set up by Wang Lun for a long time.
It seems that Wu Song, who has already studied the Xuannu Heavenly Book, is not successful in tactical strategy.
However, in fact, only those who are really familiar with the Xuannu Heavenly Book know that although this treasure book, one of the three great strange books at that time, is all about how to use strategy on the battlefield, its core idea is not the case.
"Fighting and strategizing" is the essence of Sun Tzu's Art of War.
The Xuannu Book of Heaven also re-strategizes. However, when it talks about strategy, it is precisely a refutation of Sun Tzu's assertion about the Art of War.
Xuannu Tianshu does not admit the assertion of "going to the army to fight and plot".
It precisely believes that although strategy is indispensable in war, any war must not rely too much on strategy, otherwise it will lead to serious consequences.
Xuannu Tianshu attaches more importance to the "Heavenly Soldier Force"!
In other words, it is more about strength. For any army, strength is the most fundamental thing. For the heavenly soldiers and generals, any strategy of the human army is ridiculous. Because, in the face of absolute strength, all strategies can be crushed.
In the Battle of Chibi, the Sun-Liu coalition was able to defeat the powerful Cao soldiers, and on the surface, it was the result of the "army to attack and plot", because Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu's strategy was superior.
In fact, the fundamental reason for Cao Bing's defeat lies in strength. Due to the lack of strength of the navy, Cao Cao was forced to take measures to link up the ships. Due to the lack of overall combat effectiveness of Cao's soldiers, Cao Cao did not cross the river in one go, giving the Sun-Liu coalition army a chance to take a breather and counterattack.
If Cao Cao's army is strong enough, then it is enough to attack it directly, and any strategy will be ineffective. Just as the Jin soldiers later destroyed the Eastern Wu, the Eastern Wu adopted a series of strategies such as blockading the Yangtze River with iron chains, but "Wang Junlou went down to Yizhou, and the king of Jinling was gloomy." Qianxun's iron lock sank to the bottom of the river, and a piece of rain descended out of the stone", in the face of absolute strength, everything is devastating.
Therefore, for any army, strength, advocating strength is the king. The so-called strategy is just a way to take advantage of the last resort when the strength is insufficient.
Therefore, the Xuannu Heavenly Book teaches people to strategize.
However, its core idea is precisely to oppose excessive advocacy of strategy, and to emphasize that it must advocate strength.
Strength plus strategy is the greater certainty of victory.
In this case, Wu Song, who studied the Xuannu Heavenly Book, is also becoming more and more proficient in military strategy. But at the same time, he doesn't blindly rely on strategy. At any time, the fighting strength of the new forbidden army is the foundation on which he depends.
At this moment, the new forbidden army's fire attack strategy has been frustrated.
However, the fighting strength of the officers and men of the new forbidden army still exists.
As long as he has this strength, Wu Song is fearless. This was the confidence that he dared to adhere to the established strategy and launch a fierce attack on the Liangshan bandits under very unfavorable circumstances.
Sure enough, the water canal, which is more than three zhang wide, can stop the fire of the reeds, but it can't stop the momentum of the new forbidden army's Jedi counterattack.
The new Praetorian Army soon rushed over. Wang Lun was furious and ordered the Liangshan bandits to fight with all their might.
However, what he didn't expect was that some of the Liangshan bandits under his command had already fought with the New Forbidden Army with Pan Jinlian, Lin Chong and Li Kui before, and they had already left a shadow on the combat effectiveness of the New Forbidden Army. At this time, seeing that the new forbidden army rushed over, even more fierce than before, this part of the Liangshan bandits immediately broke their courage, turned around and drilled into the reeds, and did not dare to resist at all.
At this moment, Liangshan's morale immediately collapsed.
Lin Chong and Li Kui were originally carried away, thinking that this time they would definitely be ashamed. Unexpectedly, when the two of them came to meet the new forbidden army angrily, they found that there were few followers, making the two of them seem to be running naked.
