Chapter 191: Psychological Warfare
Chapter 191
Numbers have never been the deciding factor on the battlefield, and a thousand rabbles are no match for a hundred or so well-trained elites.
The biggest role of the rabble, that is, to create a terrifying momentum, of course, this is a double-edged sword, scaring the enemy to run away with him, to paraphrase a sentence, that is, "become a dog with the wind and waves, and throw twenty throws against the wind".
However, the ability of these thirty or so widows to herd sheep in front of them is still good, driving the thieves who are nearly ten times their size, they got off the boat on the shoal, and rushed towards the position where the archers of the inspection department were located, even if they were against the arrows shot by more than 30 archers of the inspection department, these thieves were already a little frightened, but the strange thing was that they did not dare to retreat at all.
Yang Shangjing stood behind one hundred and fifty archers of the Inspection Division, fifty rattan players and one hundred pikemen under the leadership of middle and lower officers, lined up in a neat line, waiting for the arrival of the pirates, and the more than thirty archers had already finished shooting the last round of arrows, shaking their somewhat sour arms, and turned to the back of Yang Shangjing, silently recovering their strength, waiting for the next wave of bows and arrows.
The roar of squeaky wowa came from the team of the Japanese behind him, Yang Shangjing squinted his eyes, but he couldn't hear why, language is a constantly changing subject, just the Chinese of the Ming Dynasty, it is very different from the Mandarin five hundred years later, not to mention Japanese, the most important thing is that before Yang Shangjing crossed, his understanding of Japanese was limited to some common words in the *****, such as "Ya Butterfly" and the like, listening to this Japanese is like a duck listening to thunder.
"Whoosh!"
Xu Minying finally shot an arrow, aiming at the only one among the Japanese who was wearing samurai armor, not ashigaru armor, but the distance between him and the Japanese was really a little far, although this arrow was also unprepared, but the leader of the Japanese was also regarded as a person who saw six ways and listened to all directions, and in a hurry, he dodged, and was stunned to flash the key point in his heart, and was only hit by an arrow in his left arm.
The armor of this wolf looked really good, and this arrow did not bring much damage to the leader of the Japanese bandits, but aroused the ferocity of the other party, and I saw the Japanese waving a katana, cutting off the shaft of the arrow with one sword, and then let out a violent roar, so the thieves in front of them, who did not even have a formation, were driven up to attack.
Xu Minying did not choose to continue archery, now at this distance, if it were not for the opportunity to take advantage of the fact that the archers of the Inspection Division stopped releasing arrows and the other party slightly relaxed his vigilance, he seized the opportunity to come by surprise, but he was afraid that the other party could easily dodge this arrow, and there was no possibility of hitting at all, and if he wanted to sneak attack, he would have to wait for the other party to get closer.
However, Xu Minying's face did not have a discouraged look, but with a funny expression, she said to Yang Shangjing: "I thought that this widow had some clever means, but in the end it was just some intimidation methods. ”
Yang Shangjing raised his eyebrows and asked, "The strong man still knows the Japanese language?" ”
"I just know a little bit, in my early years, I also received Japanese envoys from Japan with Grandpa Guo." Xu Minying smiled, with a look of disapproval, "These robbers are intimidating the thieves below, saying that their knives have been cursed by the gods, and those who are killed by their knives will not enter reincarnation, but will be killed directly, urging them to rush here quickly." ”
, this widow can play, my side of materialism has not found a chance to push out, there is idealism began to prevail, sure enough, to deal with illiterate illiteracy, or the most empty idealistic intimidation is more useful, what materialist baptism...... All those who need a certain amount of knowledge as a foundation, and in this era, they are all spicy chickens to deal with Bai Ding.
Yang Shangjing gritted his teeth, found Li Ji, and after giving some orders, among the archers of the inspection department here, there were several loud voices shouting: "Japan no, but not to play...... In the land of Maru, its shogunate and shogun are still to be ...... The emperor is just a puppet, even if there is ...... Gods, how can they ...... Slay the soul? Wait ...... Ho, what to fear! ”
These half-written words, shouting and stumbling, although it makes people listen to it hard, but it is Yang Shangjing's attention, which can make the other party's team suspicious, and under mutual discussion, the speed of this march will definitely be slow, and as soon as the speed slows down, the morale of the whole child will also plummet.
In the feudal era, or until the line tactics reached their peak, the most fighting on the battlefield was morale, such as Yue's army, in fact, it was also Yue Fei's personal force to drive the high momentum, so that the battle must be won and defended, as for the lobster soldiers of the British Empire...... Or rely on morale to shoot a volley to the nose, and then charge with bayonets - as long as the opponent's forward line is broken, it will be a situation of defeat.
On the battlefield of this era, the personal bravery of the soldiers is of no use at all, 200,000 troops are fighting, and the 5,000 people in frontal contact may not be enough, and the 5,000 people who are cut out, the rest must rely on the rhythm band, and the proportion of casualties they can bear is too small.
These words were shouted three times in a row, and the more they shouted, the smoother they became, and the footsteps of the thieves who were coerced on the opposite side gradually slowed down, and the widows behind the anger squeaked and screamed again, and even directly cut off the heads of two people, which barely maintained the formation, but the morale that was originally shot by the arrows was not high, and it became more and more sluggish in an instant.
Seeing this, Yang Shangjing pulled out his waist knife with a "choking" sound, and shouted loudly: "Play music, go on!" ”
The local version of the "March of the Grenadiers" of the Ming Dynasty sounded, blowing and playing very imposingly, but this time the speed was very fast, and a group of archers of the Inspection Division almost rushed forward in small steps, fully demonstrating the effect of the previous training and the preciousness of the actual combat experience - the formation was really not a big mess, and the archers did not have too much fear on their faces.
Xu Minying looked at this effect, her eyelids jumped wildly, when Xu Shangyong and others were watching the column, he was also watching below, but actual combat is actual combat, training is training, and it is already very good to be able to run out of such a formation in actual combat, and there seem to be very few soldiers in Nanjing Guard who can run out of this formation.
"You find an opportunity to continue to release cold arrows, and you can't let those gangs of robbers devote all their hearts to driving away these bandits." Yang Shangjing said to Xu Minying in a deep voice, "This county doesn't know what to learn from Song Xianggong, and attacking halfway is the right way!" ”
