Chapter 132: Zhang's Uncle and Nephew
Of course, this system is not yet complete, although Ma Zongheng's temperament looks very arrogant on weekdays, but when he encounters the war of the soldiers, he completely changes a person, especially careful and cautious, strives for perfection, and strives for perfection. After all, this is a matter of human life, and a perfect system can not only greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the army, cope with various special situations, but also greatly reduce casualties.
In this system, Ma Zongheng designed many different training processes, first according to the classification of various arms, some specifically to improve the physique of soldiers, some to improve the cooperation between teams, and some to improve the march. Of course, it is a fantasy, but so far, Ma Zongheng has only achieved less than one-tenth of the goal in mind.
First of all, he sorted out the boxing techniques he had learned, removed the more complex moves, and taught them to the infantry, one is to strengthen the body, and the other is to enhance the combat ability of the infantry.
As for the cavalry, the Xiliang cavalry already had a perfect system, and the horses were only slightly modified, after all, the cavalry paid attention to the courage and courage of the indefinite, and was responsible for charging into battle, making trouble, and breaking through the enemy's arrangement. Of course, Ma Zongheng also coupled with the training methods and concepts of the guerrillas in later generations, so that the cavalry under his command must move as fast as lightning, and retreat as fast as the ebb tide, so as to disturb the enemy and annihilate the enemy behind.
As for the integration and arrangement of the team, Ma Zongheng followed the military management of later generations, requiring the pace and movement to be consistent, advancing and retreating together, and paying attention to the overall planning as the core, so that the cohesion of the soldiers of each team was more solid.
In addition, for the practice of the formation, Ma Zongheng has only been able to form a long snake formation and two dragons out of the water formation. As for Wen Ping, because he learned the military formation since he was a child, although he will have a lot of extremely difficult formations, but he also told the horse to be vertical, the word long snake formation and the two dragon out of the water formation are the basic formations, and the other formations are extremely time-consuming and extremely demanding to practice and practice, and the requirements are extremely high, one must be elite soldiers, the two require skillful cooperation between each other, and the three must be familiar with the changes between the formations after a long period of time. For example, the eight golden lock formations in the formation, a total of eighty-eight sixty-four changes, among which there is more mystery of Qimen Dunjia, if you want to exert fifty percent of the power, at least there must be a team of elite troops who have been trained for more than three years, and then there is a superb ability, the formation is thoroughly studied Shangjiang, and after more than two years of drills, there is this possibility. Of course, if this leader is extraordinary, he may be able to shorten the time of this exercise.
In other words, to put out a set of profound and subtle formations, it is not ordinary to pull a group of troops, and then find someone who knows a little about this set of formations to be able to put it out. The requirements are extremely demanding. Otherwise, it will be a nondescript strange formation, as long as you encounter a slightly powerful character, you will be ruthlessly destroyed in an instant, but because of this, there will be a lot of casualties and a lot of casualties.
Ma Zongheng's intention at that time was actually very simple, who understands the history of the period from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, who does not admire Zhuge Liang's terrifying gossip array, at that time, he just used sand and stones as soldiers, and drove and set up a formation, which could trap Lu Xun's 100,000 elite soldiers. If it is deployed by elite soldiers, won't it be possible to kill millions of enemies!? In addition, throughout the ages, how many romantic people can turn defeat into victory with just a little formation, and win many with small ones. And the formation has also become the key to determining victory or defeat in ancient times. Who doesn't want to have an army that can put on a surprise formation and easily annihilate the enemy!
However, when Ma Zongheng listened to Wen Ping's words, he quickly broke off this thought, because he didn't have this condition and time at all now. Therefore, Wen Ping also advised him to practice the two basic formations of the one-word long snake formation and the two-dragon water formation first, and when he could gain a foothold in the formation, it would not be too late to practice these advanced formations.
But he said that Ma Zongheng led the troops forward in a hurry, and drove them for a day, until dusk, and then caught up with the first baggage team, and then ordered the soldiers to get up to eat, and rest first. During this time, Ma Zongheng led his soldiers to the Hedong border to investigate.
Previously, he had heard the report of the detailed work, and knew that in the past few days, Dong Zhuo had conquered almost the entire Hedong. It is also strange to say that Hedong is too guarded Kai or is afraid of the power of the Xiliang soldiers, and constantly transfers the troops back, and the vanguard general Hua Xiong under Dong Zhuo is killed in Anyi. Wei Kai did not resist and offered the city to greet him. In addition, Dong Zhuo personally led 100,000 troops, and a fierce general under his command, with lightning speed, all the way to Jiguan, and was confronting Ding Yuan's 100,000 soldiers and state soldiers.
The war between the two armies had not yet broken out, and Ma Zongheng also received He Jin's order to rush to Ding Yuan's army before Dong Zhuo marched to boost the morale of his army and work together to break it.
At night, it was dark. There was an eerie atmosphere in the surrounding woods. The horse rode to a hilltop and gazed at the surrounding terrain. Pang De, who was beside him, couldn't help but look pale and asked, "Does the lord think that Dong Jackal Tiger will send troops to attack?" ”
"Yes, too. Dong Jackal Hu seems to be a tyrannical and murderous reckless man on the surface, but in fact, he is very careful, and with the assistance of Li Wenyou by his side, it is impossible for me to go to the rescue. Ma Zongheng's eyes couldn't help narrowing, and he said in a deep voice.
"If so, why didn't the ambush attack the baggage troops? If our army loses its baggage and its morale plummets, it will naturally not dare to advance in a hurry. When Hu Che'er heard this, he couldn't help frowning and asked.
"That's what makes me feel weird. Pass my order, divide the soldiers and horses to stand guard around, and order the soldiers of all soldiers not to remove their armor, in case the enemy is coming! Ma Zongheng only felt a strange feeling in his heart, and thought that it might be that he hadn't led the troops for too long, and he was nervous for a while. However, just in case, Ma Zongheng still made an allocation.
At the same time, in a hidden mountain area dozens of miles away from this mountain forest, there were indeed a lot of camps. At this time, in a camp tent, a soldier hurried in and reported: "Report ~~!! General Zhang, Butcher He's vanguard army has arrived!! ”
When the silver armor general who was watching the bamboo slip heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, he slowly lowered his hand, and raised his head, it turned out to be one of the generals under Dong Zhuo, Zhang Ji is also.
"Humph! This Ma family child must never have imagined that Zhang deliberately did not attack his troops, just to make him take it lightly, relax his guard, and take the opportunity to give a heavy setback, and avenge the revenge of the year!! Zhang Ji's stern face showed a little cold. Since the battle of Chen Cang, he was defeated by the Ma family's father and son, he has always been ashamed and looking for opportunities. This time, he just wants Ma Zongheng, this hairy boy, to be ruined and discredited, and he can't turn over!
"Go, call my nephew!" Zhang Ji's thought flashed, and he immediately snorted coldly. When the soldier heard this, his face was shocked, and he was busy leading the order to retreat.
After the soldier withdrew from the tent, he did not dare to slack off, led dozens of soldiers, and rushed to the dense forest in the mountain.
After a while, the sound of a gale could be heard in the dense forest, where you could not see your fingers, but you could quickly make out the sound of the guns dancing. Suddenly, it sounded like there were branches and leaves falling to the ground, and a sharp footstep suddenly rose. Immediately, the roar of the wolves broke out in unison. was so frightened that the soldier and the dozens of soldiers behind him all changed color.
"Not good!! General Zhang is in danger, come with me!! The one with the torch leads the way in front!! The soldier shouted, and the two soldiers with torches behind them hurriedly rushed forward. Under the light of the fire, suddenly saw the front, a person jumped high, the phoenix carving silver spear in his hand was sharp and fast, and flew out suddenly, and the blood light appeared in an instant, and the hungry wolf who pounced was stabbed in the head, screamed miserably, and died on the spot. The man flicked his gun, and in mid-air, he hurriedly swung his gun, and with a violent bang, another hungry wolf was immediately swept away by him, and crashed into a huge tree. Immediately the danger rose again, the man just landed, a hungry wolf pounced in the oblique thorn behind, but he seemed to have expected it, his body flashed suddenly, the phoenix carved silver spear suddenly rose, the gun style together, like a flying silver phoenix, the several hungry wolves that pounced on him were stabbed to death by him one by one, and pieces of blood were like red flowers blooming. For a while, the wolf's roar could not be heard, only the sound of rapid breathing could be heard, but it was not the voice of the silver-speared general, but the frightened and irrepressible voice of the soldiers who came soon.
When he was young, he saw that the silver spear boy walked out slowly under the light of the fire, and his handsome and majestic face suddenly appeared in the eyes of everyone. I saw that this person was dressed in a red robe and black armor, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a long hair with a long braid behind him, which was extremely chic. However, the cold look on his face made him look a little unkind and cold. This person is Zhang Ji's nephew - Zhang Xiu, since he came back a few years ago, he followed his uncle to fight in the Northland, but he was invincible in battle, and no one was invincible, so he won the name of the Gun King of the Northland!
Now in Zhang Jijun, Zhang Xiu's prestige is second only to his uncle.
"What are you bothering about?" Zhang Xiu's eyes were cold, when he practiced martial arts, he hated someone to disturb him the most, and once someone strayed in, and he was almost killed by mistake.
"General Zhang forgives my sins, and we are here to invite you on the orders of General Zhang." The soldier hurriedly knelt down and reported. The rest of the dozens of soldiers around him also knelt down in panic.
"Oh? Uncle looking for me? When Zhang Xiu heard this, her eyes opened slightly. It is said that Zhang Xiu's biological father died early, but Zhang Ji raised him since he was a child. Zhang Xiuzhi is like a father. Moreover, Zhang Ji has always understood his temperament, knowing that he is practicing martial arts, and he does not hesitate to send people to disturb him, there must be something important.
Two rays of light burst out from Zhang Xiu's eyes, and everyone felt a chill in their hearts when they saw it, but when they reacted, Zhang Xiu had already taken steps and walked away.
When he was young, Zhang Xiu walked into Zhang Ji's tent, put away his arrogant and cold look, and saluted: "My nephew has seen my uncle!" ”
"Xiu'er! The Ma family has brought in troops, and tonight is a good time to be ashamed! You have to save face for my Zhang family tonight! When Zhang Ji saw Zhang Xiu, he also showed a rare smile and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Xiu listened, but he also grinned, but it gave people a cold and bloodthirsty feeling, and replied unhurriedly: "Uncle, don't worry, I will let the Ma family know what kind of fate will happen to him if he offends my Zhang family!" ”
But he said that unconsciously, it was time for the third watch. All the soldiers were exhausted and many fell asleep. Ma Zongheng rested in the makeshift tent, but he seemed to be worried, and he was not asleep yet.
"But if we can repel our army first, and the state army knows that the reinforcements have suffered a heavy setback, the morale will inevitably plummet. The elite of Xiliang who immediately guarded Keiguan could take the opportunity to pour troops out and break the state army. With the temperament of Dong Jackal Tiger and Li Wenyou, it is absolutely impossible, and it is impossible not to make arrangements! Ma Zongheng's thought flashed, although he was also tired, but he cheered up and walked out of the tent. At this moment, Wei Fei suddenly rushed over with a panicked face, and Ma Zongheng's color suddenly changed when he saw it, and the ominous premonition in his heart was even stronger.
"General Ma, in the mountain roads in the northeast, our scouts seem to have discovered the spies of the Xiliang soldiers, or there will be an ambush attack soon!!"
