Chapter 42: The Han Dynasty is outstanding
The homeless people were already close at hand, and it was not until they approached that the recruits of the Wenden battalion saw clearly what was going on in the hands of these people, and they all thought it was a little funny at the time.
Compared to the Jingchi Water Bandits they met in Wuwen River, these homeless people are more than a grade lower in terms of physique, clothing, and holding.
In Wang Zheng's eyes, these people were not even as effective as the militia of later generations.
The rabble is still a rabble after all, as long as your formation does not move, even if there are more of them, what is there to be afraid of?
The standard spears in the hands of the recruits of the Wenden Battalion were flat in front, and although the people who rushed towards them did not even have a decent weapon, but under the large number of people, the recruits were still nervous.
"Flat, clench, stab forward!"
Without losing any time, Wang Zhengkang's powerful voice clearly reached the ears of every recruit in the formation, and subconsciously, the recruits screamed and stabbed the spear in their hands hard.
With the experience of the Battle of Watergate, the recruits know the importance of formation, and at the same time, they are closer together, which is the guarantee of their survival.
The standard spears held by the recruits of the six sentinels were all shoddy and poorly worked, and it may be difficult to effectively inflict damage on the heavily armored Tartar soldiers, but now they are dealing with some ragged outcasts and bandits, but they are more than enough.
The sound of "poof" continued to come out, and the screams of those homeless people sounded together, and the people who were poked and stabbed were all bloody, covering their wounds and howling, and it was difficult to take a step forward.
The homeless people had the advantage of numbers, and soon the water around the phalanx of the six outposts was impassable, and from the head of the city, the place where Wang Zheng was located had already been occupied by dense homeless people.
Seeing this situation, Han Dahu, the garrison of Ninghai Prefecture who was watching the battle, dimmed his eyes and muttered: "Wang Bai is brave, in order to defend the state city and die in the city, this Shou Rong will definitely make this matter clear to Futai, to..."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Weizhong suddenly said: "Shou Rong wait, they haven't been defeated yet!" ”
Liu Daliang patted the female wall and glanced at the city, except for the homeless people, who couldn't see anyone at the six sentinels, and sneered at the moment.
"I'm afraid Xietai is too high to look at that kid!"
Under the city, a water bandit who escaped from the Wuwen River held a waist knife, pointed at a few homeless people who hesitated, and scolded.
"What are you still doing here, rush up and kill the officers and soldiers!"
Several homeless people were driven forward, and before they could react, a few glittering bloody spears stabbed with the sound of the wind, and a few screams, these homeless people were stabbed into a hornet's nest and fell to the ground softly in front of the eyes of this bandit.
Lang Lijiao rushed forward with five or six water bandits, feeling the killing intent attacking from the left, Lang Lijiao turned over and dodged, and before he could shout and curse, another spear stabbed from the right side.
This time, Langlijiao did not dodge, but relied on his skill to jam the knife in the place where the head of the spear and the barrel of the gun were connected, and the spearman blushed and tried to take the spear back.
But how could he be Lang Lijiao's opponent, Lang Lijiao used his strength and directly dragged him out of the phalanx.
The displaced people in the back had been pressed and beaten by the Wenden battalion, and when they saw the pikeman being dragged out, they pounced on him like a hungry wolf, and it didn't take long to tear the recruit to pieces.
However, Lang Lijiao didn't feel proud for long, and at the same time that the recruit was dragged out, another person immediately made up for it.
Lang Lijiao looked up and down at this dark-faced officer and soldier with a dark face, and saw that the physique required a lot of strength, and it was even more difficult to deal with than the original.
Deng Heizi's face was flushed red, obviously angry, and without saying anything, the waist knife in his hand slashed over with the sound of the wind.
His eyes tightened, and Lang Lijiao roared to meet him.
......
"Flat end! Don't mess around! Pierce forward! ”
Wang Zheng held the family heirloom steel knife, walked left and right in the formation, and while trying his best to maintain order, he played a leading role in the eyes of the recruits like a lighthouse in the sea.
Many recruits saw that Wang Zheng, who was a general, did not spare his life, so they naturally became more courageous and ashamed to fall behind.
As soon as he turned his head, Wang Zheng saw Deng Heizi, who was being killed, who was retreating one after another.
Lang Jiao!
Seeing this familiar person, Wang Zheng did not hesitate, rushed to the two who were fighting fiercely with a steel knife, and after cutting down a water bandit who came to stop him, the knife in his hand swung towards Langlijiao.
"Bang!"
Lang Lijiao was not slow to react, and as soon as he raised his hand, he blocked the knife, turned his head to look, and recognized Wang Zheng.
"It's you!"
In fact, this kind of spear formation Qi Jiguang used when he fought the Japanese invaders, if it is a well-trained army, the spear formation like a hedgehog can play a role in promoting the strengths and avoiding the weaknesses, which is the best way to defeat the enemy.
Although the recruits of the Wendeng battalion did not have wolf mills and bamboo spears in their hands, they did not face Japanese warriors, let alone well-made Japanese swords.
The quality of the bandits and the homeless people was uneven, and the habitual waist knives and hooks and forks were restrained by the spears held by the recruits of the Wendeng battalion, and there was no way to start at all.
As long as the Wendeng battalion can keep the formation still, the outcome of this battle will be divided, and it is precisely the formation that Wang Zheng first practiced!
At the same time that Wang Zheng was fighting with Langlijiao, the battle group was not as glued as the two, and there had been slight changes, and in the face of a hedgehog phalanx like Wendeng Camp, the swarming homeless people were simply unable to fight.
The unlucky ones were poked all over the holes, and the lucky ones were also wounded, and under the howling of the ghosts and wolves, even those originally fierce water bandits did not dare to rush again.
Confused, lost, morale gradually weakened, fear lingered in the hearts of the homeless, and the point of those spears with minced flesh and blood was finally reached at the top.
At first, there were groups of displaced people, dragging their bruised bodies desperately trying to get away from the phalanx of the Wendeng camp, and after a while, the last hesitant refugees began to flee in groups.
In the end, there was a big rout.
"It's... Wang Zheng actually won?! ”
Wu Weizhong in the city was ecstatic, and slammed his fist on the female wall, and he didn't even feel the piercing pain at hand under the excitement.
He couldn't help but wonder, how did Wang Zheng do it, there were at least more than 1,000 people in the black and oppressive water bandits, and it made people feel afraid to look at it, and they were actually defeated by Wang Zheng's recruits.
Liu Daliang couldn't believe his eyes at all, not only was Wang Zheng not defeated, but after killing the leading big water thief alone, he even won an impossible victory, defeating the water bandit ten times his own!
"It's just a fluke, this, these rabble, I, Liu Daliang, can win with fifty people!"
Having said that, Liu Daliang still consciously left in disgrace.
At the moment before leaving, Liu Daliang still glanced at Wang Zheng who was stepping on the corpse with envious and jealous eyes, he was carrying the head of a water thief and swallowed his saliva fiercely.
