Chapter 161: Battle
William stood in front of everyone, smiling, even if he wasn't in a good mood at the moment.
"I can see that you all train very hard, I'm very happy!" William said with a smile.
"But it's not interesting to train like this all the time, I think let's have a confrontation training, just between new recruits and veterans, how about it?"
The recruits looked at each other when they heard this, and they all saw the eagerness in the eyes of the others.
The veterans, on the other hand, were expressionless, and they didn't even move, and the discipline on both sides was judged.
"If there is no objection to it, then prepare it, fifty recruits against fifty veterans! I don't think recruits are worse than veterans, they all have the same training, and they all fight the same war, right? William said with a smile.
The recruits began to disband, and while changing their leather armor and wooden guns, they talked to their comrades in a small voice about how they were going to beat the veterans.
The veterans were also disbanded, and they were silent compared to the shouting recruits, who put on their armor with the help of their comrades, leaned together with their comrades, and discussed the battle in a whisper.
The veterans seem to be so united, like a whole, between the comrades-in-arms looking at each other, the tacit understanding is clear at a glance, this tacit understanding has not been spent on day and night for several years, and it is impossible to sit side by side with each other.
The battle was divided into two battles, one was a dispersed operation and the other was an array operation.
The first array battle was about to begin, and the veterans were lined up in three rows under the orders of the officers, and the soldiers were close to each other shoulder to shoulder.
The same is true for the recruits, it seems that the gap in the array is not large, but it just does not have the calm feeling of the veterans.
The two sides bowed to each other, the wooden hair with the muskets coated with lime powder pointed at each other, and the whistles hanging from the necks of the officers were also in their mouths, and when William gave the order, they would blow the whistles together, and through the whistles, they would direct the footsteps of the soldiers.
"Let's go!"
Seeing that both sides were ready, William immediately gave the order to begin.
The whistle suddenly resounded through the barracks, and the recruits also let out a roar, stepping on the whistle to want the veterans to march.
The veteran, on the other hand, was silent, quietly listening to the whistle, and moving forward in unison.
Finally, the two sides began to approach, and the veterans cooperated quite tacitly, often the first platoon was responsible for attacking the enemy, the second and third platoons were covering, or attacking together, with several spears piercing each other together.
The silent veterans taught the recruits a good lesson with their extraordinary combat experience and sophisticated techniques
The recruits proudly stabbed each other with their spears and the veterans, but soon they fell into disadvantage, the extraordinary psychological quality of the veterans was not comparable to them, and four or five spears stabbed at themselves like this, which was not something that anyone could bear.
The recruits gradually began to be scrambling, and the formation began to be somewhat scattered, and although the veterans would also be hit, they would not panic, as long as two white spots appeared on their bodies, they would automatically withdraw from the battle.
The clash between the phalanxes is a test of morale and discipline, and there are certain requirements for amazement and skill, so once one side falls to the downside, then they will quickly fall into a state of collapse.
The discipline of the recruits was good, but the skill and morale were not comparable to those of the veterans, but after all, they were non-lethal wooden guns, so they did not break down quickly.
However, it only did not collapse quickly, and after only five minutes, more than forty people on both sides withdrew from the battle.
In the end, the recruits could not withstand the attack of the veterans, could no longer maintain their formation, and began to rout, while the veterans still maintained a neat formation, such a scene was far worse than the battle of Lomi Valley.
Relying on this formation, the veterans gradually crushed the scattered recruits and ended the battle.
After the recruits left the field, they began to blame their teammates, and of course, there were also those who stood sullenly in place, in short, with different postures.
The veterans who left the field began to hug his comrades-in-arms and joked in low voices.
From this, it can be seen that the immaturity of the recruits, they don't know the value of their comrades-in-arms, they are the people who can kill him on the battlefield, but it is normal, they have not participated in the cruel battle like the Battle of Luomi Valley, and they cannot understand this kind of life and death feelings.
At the end of the battle, the veterans paid the price of twenty-eight to annihilate the recruits, and William did not say anything about this result.
The second melee is about to begin, and the second group of soldiers is ready.
Waiting for William's order, the two sides immediately began to charge the enemy.
Most of the veterans are in groups of three or three, three groups and one team, and the team officers are at the front, and the team officers also lead the team to form a five-ring formation.
Although it was said to be a melee, of course the soldiers who were born and died on the battlefield knew that it would be beneficial, so it was nominally a melee, but in fact it was an array that sent some umbrellas.
The recruits are not much different from them, and they are also in groups of threes and threes, but their IQ of groups of three and three is not in groups of threes, but they rush over in a scattered manner.
The result can be imagined, the degree of cooperation of the recruits is not as good as that of the veterans, the tacit understanding of the veterans is tempered between life and death, and they are only the usual training, of course, there is a gap with the veterans.
Coupled with the lack of skill, the recruits were defeated even more completely this time, and the veterans only paid the price of eleven to wipe them out.
After the battle, William clapped his hands as he looked at the veterans who were discussing in a low voice, and then at the recruits who were cursing or sulking.
He was quite unhappy in his heart, he just couldn't get used to seeing this group of recruits provoking veterans, recruits can be sharp, but for their predecessors who were born on the battlefield like this, he couldn't stand it a little.
To be honest, in fact, this group of veterans was no different from this group of recruits when they just finished training, but at that time they had no targets to provoke, and neither the knight nor William dared to offend, so this kind of thing never happened.
Now it's different, there are veterans who have bullied them above the recruits, of course they don't accept it, and William's anger at this time has become inevitable.
"Very good, very good, stand up for me!!" William first whispered a sigh of admiration, and then let out a huge roar, which, combined with his golden hair, looked like a young lion.
Seeing that William was so angry, everyone was silent, and the wind was so loud that they didn't even dare to take a breath.
"Very well, you guys can do it!" William pointed at the group of recruits and laughed angrily.
"What kind of mentality is it, to provoke your seniors? That's follow me! The soldiers who followed me from birth to death, the people who fought with me from the time I arrived in Denlenburg!! The people who fought with me in such a terrible battle as the Battle of Lomi Valley!! ”
William's eyes widened and he snarled at the group of recruits, not only was he angry, but he also wanted to create an image of nostalgia in the hearts of the soldiers.
"Go and see the scars on their bodies, how much have they paid for me, for our territory? Did you know?! ”
