Chapter 263: The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying
The shouts of the people set off a small climax, and also ignited the curiosity of more people outside the city gate, what happened to make the people inside the city gate so excited, even the ancient words of battle?
Immediately after that, people's curiosity was pushed to the top again, and a voice that had never been heard before appeared, boom! Bang! The earth was shaking, and the dust on the ground was dancing up and down with the rhythmic vibrations.
It is like a prelude to the dragon turning over and the house collapsing.
Wow!
The people in the Fengqiu Gate were completely crazy, a fierce beast wearing black armor appeared in front of people's eyes, the generals were stunned, and the civil officials were even more frightened, what kind of army is this?
It's a steel beast!
The huge tower shield is in front, and behind it is a steel jungle composed of spears more than a zhang long, erected like a flagpole, and the red tassels on it flutter slowly, and what is even more strange is that the height of the spears is not the same, growing in turn from front to back.
At the end of the line was a ranged force of crossbowmen, and there was not a single cavalry in the ranks, even the general Di Qing in command was wearing a strict foot armor, but he had a red tassel on his head, and the other soldiers had a white tassel on his head.
Zhao Zhen's eyes widened and he watched this steel jungle slowly advance, this Di Qing was really a talent, and he actually used the ancient Macedonian phalanx to fight against Yang Huaiyu! This was only slightly mentioned in the textbook he wrote to the Military Academy, but he didn't expect it to be restored so well by Di Qing, and what is even more valuable is that he also improved it.
The team led by Yang Huaiyu is not bad, although it is a pro-soldier and veteran who are gathered from the Jiangmen family, but their combat quality is excellent, and they are still calm in the face of such a mobile battle formation, they are confident that this seemingly terrifying formation is actually just a fat sheep to be slaughtered.
And the most important point is that such a long spear can only take care of the front, what should you do on the side?
With the completion of the three drums, the two armies officially began to fight, according to the battlefield experience, at this time it is time to shoot crossbow arrows, Yang Huaiyu is very clever to break the whole into zero, the troops in his hands are scattered, so as to avoid the area covered by crossbow arrows, and can calmly attack from the side.
Yang Huaiyu's tactics to deal with were seen by the civil and military officials nodding again and again, and there were many civil officials who knew about military affairs, and Xia Zhu, the secretary of the military department, sighed slightly: "Yang Huaiyu's method is very good, and it is worthy of being the queen of the gate, and he is quite calm in his improvisation!" ”
Wang Zeng was silent, he didn't believe that Di Qing, who was favored by the official family, was Zhao Kuo on paper, and at this time, the official family was smiling and calm, as if he had inexplicable trust in Di Qing.
Cao Wei replied with a smile: "Xia Zuocheng is too famous, and Huaiyu is also the invincible junior who saw Lao Linggong Yang, this bit of kung fu is nothing!" ”
Xia Zhu squinted his eyes and didn't speak, what kind of modesty is this, he is completely touting the juniors of Jiangmen, and it is in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, which is really a bit excessive.
Ding Wei said with a smile: "Xia Zuocheng is right, Yang Huaiyu does have talents, but this is just the beginning, just by the formation, I can't tell who is higher and who is lower, and wait a little longer." ”
Ding Wei's words are equivalent to disagreeing with Xia Zhu and Cao Wei, although this Xia Zhu has literary and military talents, and has made great achievements in political affairs and talents, but his character is not good, and he is greedy and good at using tactics. Looting money and raising animals and entertaining musicians made many civil servants deeply ashamed.
I don't know why the official family promoted him to the governor of the government? Ding Wei shook his head slightly, and the official's mind was now becoming more and more incomprehensible.
The battle was first started by the crossbowmen under Yang Huaiyu, and the crossbow arrows wrapped in lime cloth were shot at Di Qing's army like locusts, but unfortunately they were blocked by shields, even if they were thrown, they had little effect, Di Qing's army was directly capped with round shields, and there were few arrows.
Just as Yang Huaiyu's crossbowman was winding, Di Qing's horn sounded, as if in response to Ding Wei's words, and the black steel jungle on the battlefield suddenly cracked, like peonies blooming and a hundred flowers blooming, forming many combat units.
The crossbowman's vision became extremely good, regardless of the other stragglers, who directly covered a large area of Yang Huaiyu's Chinese army......
For a while, the white dust obscured Yang Huaiyu's field of vision, and each scattered combat unit was in a group of ten people, with long and short weapons complementing each other to attack the invading enemy on both wings.
This is a bit of Qi Jiajun's style of play, Zhao Zhen was amazed at the use of Di Qing's formation, and he was really born handsome, and he threw off Yang Huaiyu's three streets with this flexible and mobile hand.
The two wings sent by Yang Huaiyu were broken by each of them, and his Chinese army lost a lot of people at once, his mood suddenly became a little flustered, after all, he had never been on the battlefield, and he began to get anxious when he saw that his Chinese soldiers had lost a lot.
The biggest mistake he made was to sound the horn to let the rangers return to the Chinese army, Di Qing's horn sounded crisply again, but the sound was obviously different, and the scattered teams reunited like a fancy show, and began to think straight about Yang Huaiyu's Chinese army attacking.
Yang Huaiyu, who had just withdrawn his ranger, once again lined up his troops, but when his formation was arranged, Di Qing had already led his troops to attack and kill, and the steel jungle that had been trotting in a neat formation suddenly accelerated when it was about to reach the enemy, and the shield hand in front used all his strength to press the tower shield on the enemy's body.
Behind the shield hand are countless spears like a forest, the reason why the length of the spears is different is to take care of the pikemen behind, at this time many people discovered the mystery, the steel jungle instantly overturned Yang Huaiyu's front army, the dense spears made the veterans of the hundred battles of Jiangmen begin to retreat back in fear, where have they seen this kind of formation?
Countless spears stabbed at the door like the tentacles of powerful ghosts, and even if they were wrapped in white cloth, it was a pain in their lives......
Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, this military exercise is about to end, but there are different voices among the civil and military officials, Xia Zhu still adheres to the previous point of view and says: "At this time, Yang Huaiyu may not necessarily lose, Di Qing's formation is huge, and most of them attack with pikemen, it is inevitable that there is a lack of flexibility when it really enters the military formation, and it will be difficult to mediate at that time." ”
Ding Wei smiled and said nothing, but Cao Wei nodded in agreement: "That's right, if you really enter the military formation for a melee, the veteran of Jiangmen, Youzi, can eat Di Qing's subordinates without even scum!" ”
But as soon as he finished speaking, the annoying sound of the horn sounded again......
The one-sided slaughter began, and Di Qing did not rush forward after breaking Yang Huaiyu's front army, but broke it into pieces, letting the pikemen withdraw from the rear row and scatter to block the two wings, and let the crossbowmen move forward and cover the army with crossbow arrows to shoot as many enemy troops as possible.
After a few quick arrows of the ratchet crossbow, Di Qing's army was once again like a blooming flower, high and low with the attacking and killing force, the whole process is simply the art of war, the cooperation between the various arms and the combat units, the advance and retreat are orderly, and both offensive and defensive, the whole battle array is like a flower that continues to open and close, which is beautiful and moving, but it is full of murderous opportunities.
Di Qing's subordinates are mainly able to enforce orders and prohibitions, and this combat quality makes Jiangmen ashamed.
Cao Wei was stunned and stiffened in place, there were many generals like him, Yang Wenguang and Zhi Wei were looking at each other, and saw helplessness and despair in each other's eyes.
Xia Zhu smiled slightly at this time, and nodded again and again, Ding Wei suddenly found out that he Xia Zhu was a pawn arranged by the official family to be next to Jiangmen, and kept saying good things to compliment Jiangmen, and finally embarrassed and humiliated them.
Sure enough, it's Xia Zhu, who is scheming in the situation, and it's really an official who looks at seven steps in one step!
