Chapter 75 The Battle Between the Two Armies Is Booming, and People Are Inside and Outside the Formation (3)

For the heavy infantry, the throat is the only part of their body that the enemy can take advantage of, but this part is so small, the position is so tricky, the fighting soldiers are in violent movement from time to time, and in the face of the heavy infantry's sword, it is difficult to accurately send the blade in their hands into the throat of the opponent.

After the trapping was rushed out, the Liang army's front was like tearing up a blank sheet of paper, and the Liang army could only do anything about it, and in the end it could only send sharp soldiers who were also heavy infantry to contend with it. This is enough to show that heavy infantry is a heavy weapon, and ordinary people can no match it.

And Meng Ping, who rushed towards the heavy infantry of the Liang army, had to do what he had to do was to kill these heavy infantry.

The soldiers behind him did not have too much unusual equipment, and the things they held were nothing more than spears. If there is a difference, the spears in their hands are made of fine iron instead of wooden poles, and are longer in length. So these can only be called spears, not guns.

Behind Meng Ping, there were only three hundred people.

These three hundred men were much shorter than the heavy infantry, who were seven or eight feet tall, which made them look inconspicuous at all. Because they are inconspicuous, they are introverted, and because they are inconspicuous, they can be strange soldiers.

Of these 300 people, Meng Ping ordered them to rush through the capital.

Rampage, this name once represents an elite army, they follow their main generals, crisscross the battlefield, make great achievements, rarely defeated, is the existence that makes the opponent fearful. But time has passed, years have passed, and this army has long been lost in the tide of troubled times, and it has not seen the dust.

Now, the three hundred soldiers behind Meng Ping are called Hengchongdu.

On that day, Li Congjing took 300 freshly cast spears and said to Meng Ping that with these 300 spears, he would build a rampage capital.

The rampage capital has long been formed, strictly trained, and cold as iron, but it has never been used, and today, it is the battle of the birth of the rampage capital.

"Kill, one blow, break the beam army!" Out of the trap on the side, Meng Ping speared forward.

Three hundred soldiers rushed out of his side like wolves, revealing their sharp claws and fangs, and pounced on the prey in front of them. Three hundred soldiers, divided into sixty squads, took the army as a unit, and when they saw a Liang heavy infantry, they stabbed their spears from different angles at the same time.

A heavy infantry of the Liang army, seeing a spear stabbing over, showed his usual disdain, did not look at it, and slashed it with a knife. The spear was light, the Mo knife was heavy, and before he could cut it down, the spear had pierced into his abdominal armor. However, to the surprise of this Liang Jun, the spear was only barely through the armor, and it couldn't cause much damage to him at all, and the Mo knife in his hand, although it was half a beat slower, could strike backwards.

A cruel smile hung on his face, the Mo knife in Liang Jun's hand had already reached the head of the rampaging general, he knew the power of his knife, so he could already imagine the scene of the other party being disemboweled. But before the Mo knife in his hand fell, a piercing pain suddenly came from his feet, he screamed, looked down, and found that two Tang soldiers stabbed two spears into the instep of his feet, nailing his feet to the ground.

A trace of panic appeared in his pupils, but he couldn't move half a minute, and the Liang army heavy infantry raised his head in horror, and saw a spear, which quickly enlarged in his eyes. Then, as soon as his throat hurt, he felt like he had lost all his strength. The spear had pierced his throat. And the Mo knife he fell was already blocked in the air by a spear.

It's a long story, but it happened almost at the same time.

The strength drained away like a flood, and the tiredness came like a tide, and the Liang army's heavy infantry saw a black look in front of him, and his body shook. Before he fell, he saw a comrade beside him, pierced through the upper body by three spears, as if held by three hands, and the fourth, in his scream, was sent exactly into his throat.

He fell. He never thought he would just fall. From the day he was a heavy infantryman, it meant that when he arrived on the battlefield, he would be invincible, and there was no enemy in front of him who could not compete with him, only he had the share of killing others, and no one else had the opportunity to kill him. Now, he knew he was wrong. Unfortunately, he never had the opportunity to correct this mistake again.

Three hundred rampage rushed to the front of the battle line, not with the Liang army's heavy infantry single combat, but one against one, with the help of the trap of the battle, with a few spears to block the opponent's attack route, restrain the opponent's body, and then quickly send a spear into the throat of the enemy one by one.

There is no such thing as a source of water in such tactics.

Meng Ping wiped the blood on his face, glanced left and right at the battle situation, and saw that the situation was developing as he expected, and his heart was relieved, and he couldn't help but think that after the Hundred Battles Army first conquered Huaizhou that day, Li Congjing pointed to the group of Liang Army dead soldiers who came out of the cave in the Tibetan army under the city, holding a big axe, wearing several layers of iron armor, and caused great casualties to the Hundred Battles Army, and said to him and the generals: "Such a sharp soldier, if it is used in the battle array, when the attack is invincible, invincible, the so-called iron armor barrier-like battle array, in front of it is only a layer of thin veil, tear it to pieces." If in the future, I meet such a warrior in the battle array, how can I deal with it? ”

Meng Ping remembered that he smiled and said casually: "How to break it today, how to deal with it in the future." ”

The law of the past, the lesson of today. If so, there are three hundred iron spears handed over to him by Li Congjing, and if so, there is a battle that ramps through the capital.

Strategize, win thousands of miles, the ability of a strategist; Take precautions, the temple is exhaustive, and it is the responsibility of the commander. The so-called lesson from the past and the teacher of the future is nothing more than this.

After the reorganization of the Hundred Battles Army, when he went to the battlefield on the river, Meng Ping was annoyed that there was no horse army under his command, and he was slightly unhappy. On the same day, Li Congjing solemnly told him, "The Chinese army and the gentlemen, where the elite of the Hundred Battles Army are, win on the battlefield, attack the city, and take it as a sharp blade." Today, the gentlemen are all horse troops, who can run for hundreds of miles to be a surprise soldier, or they can be on the battlefield to respond to all parties. At this time, the pawns in the battle and the army of Kecheng all rely on your foot soldiers, and there is no part of your department to meet the enemy head-on, whether it is a surprise attack or a response, they are all rootless trees. The division of labor is clear, and their respective specialties can make their own efforts to the fullest. The same is true of both the Chinese army and the gentleman. You should remember my intentions and lead your troops to break the enemy and make meritorious contributions. ”

Meng Ping muttered: "The Chinese army is the root, and the gentlemen are all wood...... Childe, in fact, you are the source of the Hundred Battles Army, with you, our soldiers are the living water. But the Chinese army broke the formation, but Meng Ping will not let you down. ”

The fighting intensified.

From time to time, the heavy infantry of the Liang army broke through the rampage.

Meng Ping's troops once again attacked the Liang army.

At that time, it was like a sharp knife, and it was far away.

……

The watchtower behind the Hundred Battles Army.

In the entire battlefield situation, the left and right formations were in a stalemate, but in the middle of the formation, Meng Ping's department was like a leading sheep, and he had already broken into the Liang army's formation thirty or fifty steps, killing the Liang army's formation in front of him. The entire 100,000-strong army of 100,000 soldiers, at this time, looks like a convex character.

At this point, the army of a hundred battles has the potential to conquer the enemy's formation.

"The middle formation department is indeed elite, and the main general is also a good talent, looking at what he does, he can not only face the enemy, but also be brave and good at fighting, which is really rare." Guo Chongtao was a little emotional, he looked at Li Congjing and thought: Senior brother, junior brother, what kind of guy are you? How come there is no shortage of talented people like Mo Li by your side, and there is no shortage of wise and brave generals who can advance and retreat in the formation and make contributions to your formation?

Li Congjing didn't know what Guo Chongtao was thinking, staring at the battlefield for so long under the blazing sun, his eyes couldn't help but be tired, he retracted his gaze slightly, and said to Guo Chongtao: "The way to win on the battlefield is not only to have the commander to have a good plan and an orderly command, but also to be desperate in the battle array, and it is also necessary for the generals under his command to be brave and strong, understand the situation, and know how to advance and retreat." After all, when fighting, the commander cannot give orders to each general, and the situation of the battle formation, although he can have a view of the overall situation outside of it, but the slight difference is still more clear to the generals, which requires them to make their own judgments according to the situation and decide on the tactics of their subordinates. ”

He thought to himself: I have promoted cultural education in the Hundred Battles Army, so that the generals can read and understand reason, and even let them read through the art of war and practice from time to time. Do you think I'm really full and holding on, and I'm okay to get nervous and play with myself?

Guo Chongtao didn't know what Li Congjing was thinking, so he stroked his beard and nodded: "Handsome, strong, there are grassroots generals in the battle formation as the backbone, this is indeed an ideal army." ”

"One soldier bears, one bear. On the contrary, if a soldier is stronger, an army will be stronger. That's it. Li Congjing didn't want Guo Chongtao to praise himself too much, which would make him a little embarrassed, as for how he looked up to himself behind his back, Li Congjing wouldn't mind, and said truthfully at this time.

"Look, Wang Yanzhang has moved." When Guo Chongtao and Li Congjing were talking, Mo Li pointed to the main formation of the Liang army and said loudly.

On the battlefield of the battle, the Liang army has been defeated, and Wang Yanzhang should respond, which is not expected by everyone.

Li Congjing and the others raised their eyes to look, and they saw that in the vast array of the Liang army several miles away, the military formation that had been calm for a long time had finally changed. The infantry formation directly divided the front section and marched towards the battlefield, with a scale of about twenty commanders.

Li Congjing's expression was solemn, but he did not rush to deploy troops to deal with it, but calmed down, wanting to see what the purpose of these 10,000 people was.

After this large array of the Liang army came out, it advanced rapidly, but it was not simply thickened on the battlefield, but it was divided into two roads in the middle of the road, like two rivers, traveling to the two wings, and rushing to the battlefield from both sides.

"Liang Jun is going to surround in a roundabout way!" Guo Chongtao's goatee aide immediately saw Wang Yanzhang's intentions, and at this time he issued a warning, looked at Li Congjing after speaking, and asked him to come up with an idea quickly.

"If he increases, I increase, and if I increase, I increase, but the number of Liang's army is several times that of me, and if it goes on like this, it will be surrounded in the end." Li Congjing's face was not good, and he thought about countermeasures.

Mo Li had a rare calm face, and said loudly: "The reason why Wang Yanzhang only sends 10,000 people out of battle each time is that he clearly wants to firmly bite our limited military strength. If we send out fewer people, we may be defeated, and if we send out more people, we will be held back by him, and the current situation is the same. Wang Yanzhang: This is obviously going to rely on more people to bully fewer people! ”

Guo Chongtao said helplessly: "If this is not the case, why should he fight with us here." ”

"Now, what should I do?" Li Congjing hesitated a little, looked at Guo Chongtao, the old fritter, and humbly learned from the experience, "Why did senior brother teach me?" ”

Guo Chongtao pondered for a while, and then said: "The soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth." At present, General Meng's troops are already in a state of breaking the formation, as far as we are concerned, we just need to maintain this momentum, clear the way for him, and let him concentrate on moving forward. If this is the case, if General Meng really breaks the formation, he will win a big victory over me. Just ......"

"Just how?"

"It's just that there are still two difficulties." Guo Chongtao looked at Li Congjing very seriously, "First, we will use the tens of thousands of people who have not been put into the battlefield to resist the tens of thousands of people under Wang Yanzhang's command; Second, if General Meng breaks the formation, then we will turn the crisis into safety, if General Meng does not break the formation, there is no need to defeat and do not need to gain the upper hand, as long as the Liang army is not completely defeated, then we will die or live. ”

Li Congjing did not speak. He turned and looked at the battlefield, silent for a long time.

Time passed, and the reinforcements of the Liang army were already encircled.

Someone was in a hurry, and the goatee staff said eagerly: "What should I do, please ask General Li to come up with an idea quickly!" ”

Li Congjing was not impetuous, looked at the battlefield where the fierce battle was in full swing, and said: "Since the Hundred Battles Army came out of Qimen, every battle has to face several times the enemy of itself, and the opponent does not have a mediocre person. first Li Jitao, Dong Zhang, then Zhu Quanzhou, and then Dai Siyuan. After many battles, my soldiers were killed, wounded, and countless people were buried in their homeland. Some of them I can name and others I have never seen, but they have died for me because of one of my orders, and they have left their wives and children......"

Everyone didn't know why Li Congjing said this, and they were a little stunned for a while.

Li Congjing continued to look at the battlefield and said: "People die early in troubled times, and people always die in wars, even if it is to survive, sometimes they have to pay the price of their lives. But how can I not admit that they were sent to Yellow Springs by me. Many times I wonder what I want to do when I come to this time. Meritorious service, happy glory, and power? These things are indeed tempting enough, but what if you have them, then what is the meaning of my coming to this era, is it really the purpose of my life? ”

"Brother Li......" Mo Li looked at Li Congjing in a daze, and stopped talking, he found that Li Congjing at this moment was very peculiar, a little weird, and a little attractive.

"I once told Guo Wei that the purpose of our Hundred Battles Army on the battlefield is to stop killing and restore peace to the world - what a beautiful wish." The corner of Li Congjing's mouth showed a smile, like self-deprecation, and like self-encouragement, "The teacher once said that when people are old, they know what it means to serve the country and the people, and when they are young, they only know glory and wealth." I don't think it's right, people should stand high enough to think about what it means to serve the country and the people. ”

He turned around, looked at Mo Li, this Fa Xiao, his confidant, and asked, "Brother Mo, tell me, what do people live for?" What is the purpose of the existence of the Hundred Battles? ”

Mo Li didn't have any look related to ease on his face, he thought about it and asked rhetorically: "As the commander of the Hundred Battles Army, what should you do?" ”

"As the commander of the Hundred Battles Army......" Li Congjing suddenly shook his cloak violently, turned to look at the battlefield, and his complexion was high-spirited, "I want to lead my soldiers to win this war, even if some of them die in battle, I will let them die, and I can bring a house, a clothes, a food, and a peace to their wives, children, fathers and elders!" ”

"How is Li Jitao? How is Dong Zhang? How is Dai Siyuan? Li Congjing asked himself and waved his hand at the battlefield, "It's all about going forward." Now, what about Wang Yanzhang? ”

"A hundred battles can kill people, and soldiers can drink blood on the battlefield. But the army of a hundred battles cannot be defeated, and the families of soldiers must not be without food and clothing! Li Congjing pulled out a horizontal knife and shouted: "Pass my handsome order: Peng Zushan, Wu Hook, each lead the headquarters, intercept and kill the reinforcements of the Liang army." Herald Meng Ping: No victory, no return! ”
