Chapter 108 Five A Battle That Is Not Doomed to Victory
Bihab was by no means a stupid man, but the formation he had laid out in front of Baibasbahn made even the usually serious Baibasbahn want to laugh. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The reason why Baibasbar saw at a glance that this was Bihab's formation and not General Hilmen was precisely because of his understanding of General Hilmen. Hilmen was a general with the ability to use his troops, and after the Battle of Gonggo Plains, Hilmen was very jealous of himself, so he deployed his subordinates and set up his formations in the safest way possible, so Baibasbahn felt at a loss when his troops were insufficient. But the current formation is completely different. The formation of the Bihab army looked quite thick, and it looked like at least 150,000 troops were concentrated in the center of the Baibasbahn front. The configuration of the army is also wonderful, and the Bihab does not allocate the army according to the type of troops, the strength of the troops, the mobility, and the offensive and defensive capabilities, but according to the different lords to allocate the army. This can be seen at a glance just by looking at the other party's flag.
Bihab formed a phalanx in units of 2,000 people, and some of the small lords' troops were less than 1,000 people, so several small lords formed a phalanx, and then arranged these phalanxes in turn, and there were as many as thirty or forty layers.
Behind these large formations, made up of the lord's private troops, was the main formation of the regular Paz army and recruits.
This kind of formation method completely ignores the coordination of various arms and the mobility of troops, and the only advantage is that no matter which small formation has a problem, it will be immediately attacked by forces from the front and rear. This is clearly to make the later troops serve as the overseers of the previous troops, which fully shows that Bihab no longer believes in the loyalty of any of the lords, and only wants them to contribute their forces. Babbard saw the clue at a glance.
"Looks like Bihab is going to fight hard, Dadaran." Baibasbar sneered at Dadaran.
Dadaran bowed his head respectfully and said, "The master is right. It seems that Bihab must be in the army, does he need a villain to take off his head? ”
"Don't worry, Bihab doesn't believe in the loyalty of his subordinates, but I would like to know if he has any loyal subordinates."
"Yes." Dadaran didn't say anything more. The meaning of Worship Basbahn is clear, and the attitude of these lords can only be seen through battle. Although Bihab's formation is not a cause for concern, if he launches a wave attack desperately, it will inevitably consume considerable combat power of the Paz army to thwart his intentions. Dadaran did not agree with Basbahn's idea, believing that it would be easier to break up the opponent's forces, but Dadaran did not say anything more, because he understood that the Lord had not thought about this level, but deliberately wanted to do so. After all, there are too many subordinates in Bihab, and if you don't take this opportunity to clean up some of them, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not become a scourge in the future.
With the sound of a trumpet, the Bihab army began to attack. The offensive was not strong, because the private forces of these lords were so far from the elite divisions that they were slow and inefficient, slow to respond to the orders of their commanders, and did not even know what to do next. If such an army had attacked the fortified walls instead of the Basbahn camps, their only result would have been to pile up their own corpses to reduce the distance for the later soldiers to reach the city. But unfortunately, there is no wall to rely on, so it still needs to use manpower to resist the opponent's attack.
Under the effective command of Baibasbahn, it would not be difficult to repel such an attack, but the problem was the wave of the attack.
The first formation of the Bihab army was soon unable to withstand the heavy casualties and retreated, but their defeat was not to the rear, but to the flanks. Immediately the second formation came up again, and the defeated first formation was withdrawn to the main formation before regrouping. In this way, it is difficult for the Pass Army to get a respite.
"Master, if this continues, our army will not have a chance to rest at all." After repelling the attacks of the nineteenth battalion of the Bihab army in a row, Dadaran had to speak.
Bai Basbahn said quietly: "What is there to be anxious about? The fact that the other side suffered such heavy casualties and could not help us is in itself the greatest encouragement to our army. Moreover, the elite troops of the other party have not yet been dispatched, but they have been standing there for a long time, and by the time these miscellaneous soldiers are almost consumed, they have already begun to starve, what is there to be afraid of such elites? Just to make those lords see that if they continue to attack, they will only be wiped out, and it can also prompt them to make up their minds as soon as possible. ”
"But our army is also very tired."
Babasbar glanced at Dadaran and said, "A recruit will never be a veteran without some hard fighting. Besides, our army only has this fatigue, what about the rest? ”
Dadaran understood. Originally, he meant to persuade Basbar to draw troops from both flanks to exhaust the opponent's forces, but Basbahn wanted to wait until the moment when the enemy's combat strength was exhausted, and launch a joint attack from both flanks. Immediately, he said, "Can the villain go and prepare immediately?" ”
Bai Basbar nodded and said, "Go ahead, here I am here, they can't attack it." ”
"Yes!" Dadaran immediately took the order and left.
The vain assault of the Bihab army continued until the evening, by which time the formations of the lord's troops had been fought from the beginning to the bottom, and after suffering heavy losses, they were reorganized into more than two dozen new formations to continue the attack. By this time, the camp of Basbahn had been shattered and could not be sustained. At this time, Bihab ordered Hilmen to lead the elite troops to launch a full-scale attack, and immediately as many as 70,000 of Bihab's elite troops began an all-out attack on Baibasbarn. The lords' armies scattered like fallen leaves washed away by a flood, making way for Hilmen's troops.
In the face of such a large and fierce attack, the army of Paz, which had long been depleted of arrows, could only defend themselves with armor and swords, but they did not waver in the slightest from exhaustion, because their main general, Baibasbahn, sat behind them, and did not even mount their horses, but continued to give new orders lazily. There is nothing more reassuring to the soldiers, because all the Paz people know that Baibasbahn is a god on the battlefield, and if it is necessary to invest his strength, then he will not hesitate to rush to the front of the ranks, but now he is sitting there lazily commanding, which means that everything in front of him is under his control, and he can win as long as he obeys the command and does his part well.
The worship of the main general unleashed its due effect at this moment, and the Paz army not only withstood the onslaught of the Bihab army, but even had a slight upper hand.
At this time, the battlefield began to change, not in terms of numbers or situations, but in the hearts of people. (To be continued.) )
