Chapter 194: The War Begins (On the Last Day of December, the Monthly Pass Hurry Up)

The Broken Army and the Japanese Army were close at hand, and Li Zhongyi expected that the enemy generals would not dare to retreat at this time, so they could only face the top.

Therefore, after the subordinates formed their teams, Li Zhongyi resolutely ordered, and the army slowly pressed towards the Japanese army.

Extending down from the hilly area of Sanjuli, the entire northern area of Kaijing is full of plains of Pingchuan, if the Japanese army wants to retreat, it will fall into the arms of Li Zhongyi, catch up and cover up, and the Japanese army will collapse without a fight.

You must know that in the army of this era, it is better to attack and fight forward.

However, when a large army turns or retreats, it can easily lead to an uncontrollable rout. The most important factor in this is the strict training of organization and discipline, which is the weakness of all armies in this era.

Of course, Li Zhongyi's self-created army of destruction in accordance with modern military training methods does not have the problem of zĂ i.

The core lies in the fact that there are a large number of long-trained low-level officers in the Broken Army, including Shi Chang, Team Leader, and Du Tou, and these capable grassroots officers are the key factors that make Li Zhongyi command the entire Broken Army.

Because it was a positional battle, the Broken Army set up a tall Yuan Rong chariot, and Li Zhongyi and Yang Lie each held a monocular telescope in their hands.

Yang Lie saw that the Japanese army was lined up in an uneven queue, slowly marching towards this side, he put down the binoculars, smiled slightly, and said: "After the Japanese army defeated the light army of Goryeo, the equipment has changed by leaps and bounds, and even the peasant soldiers holding spears have put on leather armor. ”

Li Zhongyi smiled faintly: "After our army occupied Seoul, everyone also carried bows. Even the poorly equipped van army has armor. ”

When the two armies were about a kilometer apart, the commanders of both sides invariably passed down orders. The army stopped advancing.

After the rhythmic drum of "Dong Dong ......" stopped, the soldiers of the Goryeo camp only took two small steps forward, and the huge phalanx composed of more than 20,000 people stopped abruptly, and everyone stood quietly in the cold autumn wind.

"Baga, you dripping pig's head!"

"Bastard. How do you stand in line? ”

"Damn inferior pariahs, stand still."

However, the Japanese army took a lot of effort, and the high-ranking samurai punched and kicked them. There was a lot of scolding, and then the crooked queue was lined up into a relatively neat phalanx.

Fujiwara Shisuke didn't pay attention to the chaos of his subordinates, he kept watching silently. The movement of the Tang people on the opposite side.

Fujiwara Shifukugaku. The Tang army on the opposite side actually stopped advancing in a few breaths, and lined up into a neat and dazzling, thick sea of silence with golden helmets and black armor!

In the autumn wind, Fujiwara Shisuke saw very clearly that there were more than 20,000 Tang troops. There was no sound, and there was not a single murmur. He couldn't help but gasp fiercely, "Ah! ”

Immovable as a mountain! Fujiwara Shisuke's mind subconsciously floated to the four words that Sun Tzu highly respected in the Art of War.

The astonishing appearance of the Tang army suddenly cast a thick shadow on Fujiwara Shisuke's originally very strong self-confidence.

At noon, two huge military phalanxes, about two miles apart, confronted each other, and a decisive battle was imminent.

The monocular in Li Zhongyi's hand slowly moved from left to right, and after seeing the layout of the Japanese army clearly, he leaned down and asked Liao Shanhe, who was temporarily acting as the commander of the cavalry: "Everyone is tied up?" ”

Liao Shanhe grinned and said, "These guys have all ridden donkeys or mules, as long as they tie their legs firmly to the saddle, they shouldn't fall off the horses." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, among his subordinates, there were only a handful of people who were good at riding horses. However, since most of the Breakers chose athletes from the hometown of Yan Zhao in the north, they had more or less ridden donkeys or mules.

The cavalrymen who were temporarily grouped flexibly manipulated the war horses under their crotches were very unlikely to charge. However, if these new young cavalry are firmly bound to the horseback and the possibility of not falling off the horse, Liao Shanhe is still somewhat sure.

Yang Lie carefully observed the lineup of the Japanese army from front to back, from left to right, and reminded Li Zhongyi with a somewhat solemn face: "Teacher, I'm afraid our army will suffer in close combat." ”

Just now, Yang Lie clearly saw the Japanese soldiers standing behind the pikemen, with a sword in their waists, and a long knife in their hands.

Li Zhongyi nodded and explained: "The strength of our army is discipline and cooperation, and the samurai of the Japanese army are stronger than individual martial arts. ”

Unlike the soldiers of the Broken Army, who were all recruited, the samurai of the Japanese army, especially the high-ranking samurai, basically belonged to samurai families.

These high-ranking samurai have to work hard since they were young, assiduously learn the family method of killing, and pass it down from generation to generation, becoming more and more practical.

Objectively speaking, in terms of individual killing skills, the captive army under Li Zhongyi is indeed far inferior to the samurai of the Japanese army.

Yang Lie patted his head and said: "Fortunately, the teacher asked everyone to bring bows, otherwise, today's decisive battle would be really a little suspenseful." ”

Li Zhongyi smiled faintly and said: "The confrontation between the two armies is a life-and-death contest between iron and blood, and I always believe that iron discipline and effective cooperation are the key elements in the first place." ”

Having said that, today's battle was the first large-scale positional battle personally commanded by Li Zhongyi, and he was inevitably a little nervous in his heart.

At this time, the Japanese army was completely ready, and Fujiwara Shisuke had already put on a spade-shaped front standing star hood, a delicate carcass, and a sleeve armor, leather cage hands, and a face and skin.

Fujiwara Shisuke's carcass pill is a special high-grade carcass pill that has been worked on by craftsmen for several years, and it is mainly composed of a shoulder and a high button, a main chest plate and body armor, and a straw fold and a diamond seam plate under the waist, which is drawn into the left rib.

"What the hell is the Tang people's army doing? Why hasn't there been any movement? Kobayakawa Jinqiu, who also changed into a carcass, asked Fujiwara Shisuke very puzzled.

Fujiwara Shisuke smiled coldly and said: "Our army is observing the enemy army, and the enemy army must be the same, but it is too late to say these things now, so let the Tang army's army see the military might of our army." ”

"Pass my military orders and move slowly." Fujiwara Shisuke couldn't guess Li Zhongyi's unmoving thoughts. He didn't bother to guess either.

The 40,000-strong army attacking the Tang army, which was less than half of the number of people, could not be defeated, Fujiwara Shisuke felt. It's better to jump into the Seto Inland Sea and drown yourself.

Seeing that the Japanese army began to slowly approach, Li Zhongyi smiled coldly and decisively ordered: "Advance!" ”

"Dong Dong ......" was accompanied by the rhythmic sound of golden drums, countless pairs of military shoes neatly knocked on the ground, and the soldiers of the Broken Army pursed their lips, and the spears in their hands pointed diagonally into the air. Without squinting, he stared at the Japanese army brigade on the opposite side that was gradually approaching.

When the two armies were about 500 meters apart, Fujiwara Shisuke violently swung his military equipment forward, "Kill......"

"Kill ......"

"Whew......"

Accompanied by Fujiwara Shisuke's order. The high-spirited Japanese soldiers either held spears in their hands, or brandished their swords and thugs, howling and spreading their legs. Rushed to the army of the Dons, who were less than half in number.

The crossbowmen stepped forward. The auxiliaries wind up and prepare for the three-stage strike. Li Zhongyi smiled coldly, and the decisive battle finally began.

At the sound of the bamboo whistle, the crossbowmen, who had long been on standby, stood in the first row of the queue under the command of the officer. The auxiliary soldiers who cooperated with the winding were each holding a primary version of the divine arm crossbow that had been wound in their hands, holding their breath. Behind the crossbowmen, four rows stood.

This is a beginner version of the Divine Arm Crossbow. It's just a hemp rope sleeve tied to the crossbow arm that can be stepped on. Its main purpose is not to increase the range, but to speed up the degree of winding, to increase the frequency of strikes.

At this time, Fujiwara Shisuke sat on his horse, unconsciously playing with the military equipment in his hands, nervously watching every move of the broken army on the opposite side.

When the Japanese army rushed to 400 meters, the captive army did not rush up, and it still stood still.

The crossbowmen of the Broken Army standing in the first row, just under the command of the officer, pointed the crossbow arm crossbow that had already been loaded with crossbow arrows, obliquely in the air, at just the right angle of 45 degrees.

Fujiwara Shifujue's own subordinates had already rushed through the distance of three hundred meters, but the Tang army's army was still motionless and did not have the slightest intention of catching up.

"Fujiwara-kun, it's so strange, could it be that the Tang people's army intends to surrender?" Kobayakawa Jinqiu asked Fujiwara Shisuke in confusion.

Fujiwara Shisuke couldn't figure out what kind of tactics the Tang army's army was, but he looked down on Kobayakawa Jinqiu, so he pretended to be calm and said, "The Tang people should be afraid of our army's military might, right?" ”

Who knows, before Fujiwara Shisuke's words fell, he heard a loud brass horn from the broken army opposite, "Didi Da ......"

Kobayakawa Jinqiu suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, and before he could blink, countless crossbow arrows suddenly flew into the air from the large array of the Broken Army.

The extremely sharp crossbow arrows, with the hideous smile of death, viciously pounced into the array of the Japanese army......

"Ah......h

"Ah......h

"It hurts......"

"Uh...... Help......"

The peasant soldiers who rushed to the forefront of the Japanese army, armed with spears and wearing leather armor, immediately fell in a large row.

Countless Japanese soldiers who were hit by crossbow arrows lay in pools of blood, wailing, weeping, and rolling on the ground, and many more were shot through by crossbow arrows and killed instantly......

The Grim Reaper, with a scythe in his hand, floated in the air, staring at the many Japanese soldiers who were screaming for their lives, and smiled proudly.

Fujiwara Shisuke watched his pikemen fall in a pool of blood one after another, but as if he didn't see it, these lowly peasant soldiers were originally just consumables in the eyes of high-level samurai, and their life or death was not in Fujiwara Shisuke's consideration at all.

Fujiwara Shisuke had already seen the weapons and equipment of the Tang army clearly, and he knew very well in his heart that the maximum range of the Goryeo bow collected by the Japanese army was only more than 150 meters, and even if he launched a confrontation now, it would not be able to reach the phalanx of the Tang army.

Rather than wasting time and the lives of the soldiers, it is better to let his subordinates rush forward with vigor, Fujiwara Shisuke has reason to believe that as long as the hand-to-hand combat and hand-to-hand combat under his command can completely crush the Tang army on the opposite side with their high killing skills.

In addition, Fujiwara Shisuke had also heard the old story about the Tang crossbow, a long-range weapon that was extremely slow to wind up, although it was extremely powerful.

Even if the peasants and soldiers are all dead, Fujiwara Shisuke won't even blink an eyelid, those lowly species are originally used for consumption, and there are as many as they want. (To be continued!)

ps: It's the last day of December, and it's a waste for the brothers to keep the monthly passes, so it's better to smash it to Sikong and support me to work hard for the fourth watch!
