Chapter 424: Fighting General (2)
The royal cavalry crossed the moat and divided into two, with 500 men on the left and right lined up, and the dead soldiers of the fighting generals were located between the light cavalry.
At the same time, Jin Xuedi's army lined up outside the south of the city with the momentum of overwhelming the city, not to mention the rhythm of 1340,000 horses stepping on the drums and trumpets, and suddenly stopped when they were 2500 steps away.
In Bai Liyan's view, the method of Jin Xuedi's formation is quite a bit of a method, different from the ever-changing knot formation of the Central Plains, the Jin Xuedi array is extremely simple and practical, no matter what kind of battle, it adopts a double-layer square formation inside and outside in a zigzag. It is similar to the square and circle formation, but the scheduling is extremely convenient.
Each branch of the armed forces is classified as a phalanx of 5,000 or 3,000 men, and when mobilized, they move vertically or horizontally with each other. At the same time, due to the use of hollow shapes, the space in the formation is large, and other formations can be reformed in the formation, and the internal small formations can be released by opening and closing the peripheral formations to disrupt the enemy's offensive.
Although the disadvantages of this formation are similar to those of the Fangyuan Formation, and the mobility is seriously insufficient, and it cannot effectively pursue the enemy, there are many cavalry and war elephants in Jinxuedi, and if the cavalry builds this formation and reorganizes the formation in the formation, this kind of hollow-shaped formation undoubtedly has a great battle advantage.
While watching, a passage was opened in front of the enemy's formation, and a white-haired, golden-skinned, white-eyed and iron-clad Jin Xuedi barbarian general, straddled a white high-headed horse, held a three-pointed fork, and galloped out of the formation and came to the center of the two armies.
At this time, Cao Chi ordered the standard-bearer to wave a yellow flag with the word "in front of the army" written on it, swaying from side to side. Seeing the state, the royal general under the city immediately urged the horse to leave the front of the formation and rode away.
When the two met between the two formations when they were young, the Southern Barbarian general mocked in a very fluent Song State accent:
"Your generation has been defeated again and again, but now you are like a turtle with a shrunken head, hiding in the city and not daring to fight, you are a lost dog, and Bill has bones."
Where can the imperial general eat his set, I can't help but think again, there will be a day when you cry soon. Snorted coldly and said:
"Hmph, it's useless to talk too much, let's see the victory on the battlefield."
"You brought it on yourself. Say, how to fight. The brute pointed the three-pointed fork at the general, and there was a momentum that wanted to do it now and pick it off the horse.
"Fifteen battles in the morning, fifteen battles in the afternoon, and no more fighting."
"The shrunken-headed turtle is the shrunken-headed tortoise, how can you see it in just thirty formations. If you want to fight, you will fight to the death, how about a hundred formations. ”
"I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until you eat!" The imperial general said excitedly.
"Don't talk nonsense, fight or not."
"What if you don't fight! Thirty formations are thirty formations, and there is no fight for one more time. ”
"Ben picked you first!"
The barbarian general's eyes are fast, saying that it is a move, a fork has been stabbed away, and the imperial general is not idle, picking a long-edged gun, a blow to block it and dissolving the power, and the backhand is a backstab, the brute will turn the tiger body to the side to let go of the tip of the gun, but the three-pointed fork in his hand is a counterclockwise sweep to the imperial general, the imperial general is lying forward behind the ear, and the gun is blocked behind the head, the brute will see this and smash a fork, and a buzzing sound is hitting the gun shaft of the imperial general, and he suddenly feels a burst of numbness and stiffness.
The two fought for five rounds, and there was no victory, and the brute immediately retracted the three-pointed fork, ran his horse two steps in front of his own formation, and shouted:
"If you want to fight, you will fight, if you lose thirty formations, you will fight thirty more battles, if you wait to break your promise, after breaking the city, don't blame our army for slaughtering your chickens and dogs."
The imperial general also returned the horse to the city pass, and took two steps to stop:
"Hmph, the cultivation is thirty formations, one hundred formations, you wait for the barbarian horsemen to still be ants under our army's guns, there is a kind of come over and fight ten more times!"
The two battled before the formation, and quickly retreated to their respective formations.
The imperial general rode back to the city and reported the news to Cao Chizheng:
"Qi Yu Imperial Marshal, the barbarian general has really hit the plan."
"Very good, General Lucci has worked hard, let's watch the battle for the time being."
"No!"
Bai Liyan was still calmly observing Jin Xuedi's military formation through the telescope at this time, and he had just fought for a while, and he had a complete view.
The two fought until the third round, and the imperial general had already taken the initiative, forcing the barbarian general to retreat first without any suspense, if he killed five more rounds, the barbarian general would probably have to eat even if he was not picked off the horse. Of course, it may also be a trick of the brute general, deliberately showing weakness at hand, and it is not known.
"My lord, the imperial general and the barbarian thief seem to be talking, general, do you say that the barbarian speaks our Central Plains dialect, or does the imperial general speak barbarian words?" Jiang Jie asked.
"Most of them are barbarians who speak the Central Plains dialect." Bailiyan's tone was very affirmative.
"How do you know?"
"Look at the mouth shape, people's speech is related to the shape of the mouth and tongue, and most of the barbarians are speaking with the accent of the Jin or Song Kingdom."
Lu Qi and the barbarian generals fought fiercely, Bailiyan saw it clearly, the barbarian generals spoke extremely fluently, most of them learned from the captives of the Central Plains, or some Central Plains people became thieves in the Central Plains.
"Central Plains thief" is similar to the term traitor, and is a contemptuous term for those Central Plains people who were willing to work for Jin Xuedi after being captured. Compared with the prisoners of war who were captured by the coalition forces, there were very few who were willing to serve the coalition forces.
At this time, the fighting generals outside the city have begun, and the first battle of the royal guest is a short spear, which reminds Bailiyan of his mentor Saiqian. One of the best spear masters in the Central Plains of Saiqian, such a big battle, it is bound to go south to help in the battle, but I don't know where the master is at this time, and Bailiyan doesn't know how he will face it if he faces him in the future.
The royal guest rode a horse and came to the two armies with a gun, and Jin Xuedi sent a man on a yellow horse at this time, very tall and burly, wearing silver fish scale armor, holding a horse lance, at least a head taller than the royal guest from a distance.
Due to its relatively developed smelting technology, manganese compounds may be added to its iron-based material, resulting in the original extremely ordinary fine iron, which can be converted into manganese fine iron with moderate toughness and hardness, which greatly improves the material performance and can popularize this weapon.
On the other hand, the weapons of the Central Plains, due to the relatively backward smelting technology and iron tools, could only produce long-edged guns between spears and horse lances to make up for the shortcomings of cavalry weapons
The two armies fought generals, the first formation was crucial, at this time the south wind was strong, the coalition army beat the war drums, the barbarian army blew the trumpets, and the drums and trumpets were deafening and resounding through the sky.
The royal guest and the barbarian general rode back and forth twice, carefully observed each other, the barbarian general was the first to launch an offensive, the horse lance long blade flew to the royal guest, the royal guest turned sideways to the right, and took advantage of the situation to strangle the horse's reins, a horizontal spear immediately, and the brute will stab the miss. The royal guest turned to the horse and drew the gun and stabbed back.
Laugh at!
The tip of the spear pierced into the lungs of the barbarian general, and with a terrible scream, the head of the spear had penetrated out of the man's chest, which made Baili Yan stunned and stunned.
"This ...... If you don't finish a round, it's over? Inevitably... It's too fast! ”
At this time, a deafening cheer erupted at the head of the city, and tens of thousands of allied troops shouted excitedly:
"The royal guest is mighty, the royal guest is mighty......"
The sound was overwhelming, and before Bailiyan came back to his senses, the barbarian army, which had already lost for a while, sent two people to drag the corpse away, and then another general came to fight with Fang Cai Yuke.
This time, the barbarian general was still a horse lance, but although the horse lance was long, the melee combat was extremely inconvenient, and the man was approached by the royal guest and stabbed to death by a short spear. Not even a chance to block.
The two of them once again urged the horses to go back and forth twice, adjusting the state of the war horses, and at the same time looking for opportunities to cut into the battle. This time, the royal guest struck first, and immediately stepped forward to provoke the enemy.
"Teasing" is similar to slashing, but slashing is from top to bottom or left and right diagonal slashing, and slashing is the use of weapons to attack the enemy's side, forcing it to retreat to its own front, and then attacking it twice after closing in, which is a common routine for knives, swords, ge, halberds, sickles and other weapons.
Because the sword is short, it can be used for short approaching tactics, and Ge, halberd, sickle, etc., because they have hooks or inverted blades, are more suitable for teasing, but they rarely use long and short spears to provoke people. And the opponent is a long-pole horse lance, which is equivalent to hitting the opponent's knife edge.
At this time, the royal guest had already been killed, and the brute general was facing him, but in a treacherous moment, he pulled the horse lance forward from his armpit by more than a foot, so that he could hide outside the attack distance of the imperial ke's short spear and stab the opponent first.
Regardless of whether it is a spear or a horse lance, as long as a horse is ridden, the usual standard action is to clamp the long pole with the armpit, hold the gun body, and form a relatively strong support structure to offset the recoil generated by the impact of the assassination target, and it is also not easy to break the spear and horse lance, and the two-handed gun is more suitable for close combat than for sprinting.
In the telescope, Baili Yan saw very real, and the royal guests on the battlefield were even more insightful.
Seeing the barbarian general stabbing from the right, the royal guest suddenly clamped the horse's belly and stepped on the stirrup, and quickly fell to the left, only to see that the cold lance stabbed the horse's back, against the abdomen of the sideways royal guest, and rubbed it flat against the chest.
Dodging a stab, the royal guest quickly galloped away, and the waist force was on the saddle, at this time the state was extremely unfavorable, and the brute will hold the reins of the horse and turn around to chase, if the long horse lance chased behind him is a thorn.
Click!
With a piercing sound, he stabbed a gun, and he was stunned to use violent force, only to see through the leather armor on the back of the royal guest, but he did not see the tip of the lance continue to pierce in.
At this time, the two of them rode horses and galloped, but the relative speed was relatively static, and the royal guest was anxious to get rid of the chasing stab, and the brute general chased closely, and it was a stab again, but it was still not penetrated, but at this time, the taste of the royal guest was also uncomfortable.
Although this thorn was pierced on the chain mail, the tip of the horse lance pierced into the flesh more than a centimeter deep through the iron ring.
Seeing that the barbarian general hesitated, Bacheng was also taken aback, and the royal guest stabbed it with a backhand, but found that it was still more than half a foot away, and the barbarian was trembling in front of him, and immediately grabbed the reins of the horse to pull away the distance, and his forehead was also shocked by a row of sweat palpitations, and he hesitated in an instant, and almost killed his opponent.
Quickly settled down, and the barbarian took a closer look at the royal guest who was only wearing leather armor, and did not find that there was a piece of chain mail in the armor.
At this time, the royal guest has turned the horse's head to kill again, and still uses a trick to provoke, the barbarian general is still palpitating at the other party's scene, and even the two stabs have failed to stab the other party down, and there are many shadows in the psychology at the moment.
So he erected a horse lance to meet it head-on, but unexpectedly, the royal guest crossed the spear and did not rush at all, but rushed to the war horse under the crotch of the barbarian, and as a result, this even thorn was thorny, and directly drew a big blood line on the right side of the high-headed horse under the crotch of the barbarian, which made the horses neigh.
Call......
When he looked closely, he found that the horse's right eye had been pierced by the tip of the spear, and the horse, like a mad beast, straightened its body and stood on its hind hooves, and a prancing horse rose up, threw the brute off the saddle, fell to the ground heavily, and then dragged the brute to gallop aimlessly.
