Chapter 187: Enough is enough
"Squat in the front row!" Shao Wei roared.
Immediately afterwards, the small flags in the army also shouted at the same time.
The spearmen who had been lined up in two rows, even after many days of training, were still a little out of order. After a moment's hesitation, the first row of soldiers crouched down in a disorderly manner, and at the same time, stabbed the tail of the spear into the dirt with all his might, and the long fur pointed diagonally forward.
"Bastard thing, bastard thing, stupid as a cow!" Shao was furious, and whipped it into the crowd.
Some soldiers subconsciously hid back, but unfortunately there were people behind them, how could they dodge, for a while, there were several screams in the crowd.
Shao Wei was in a bad mood today, as if he had eaten gunpowder, and he was extremely ruthless. He twitched the soldier in front of him and asked, "Know what you're doing wrong?" ”
The recruit's painful face was full of doubts: "I don't know, I don't know, the general spares his life!" ”
"Bastard, when you reply to the chief, you should call the chief first."
"It's sir, sir, I don't know!"
Shao Wei put away his whip: "According to our military system, after the commander gives the order, you have to repeat it at the same time, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, sir
。 ”
At this time, everyone suddenly realized, and at the same time thought in their hearts: There are too many rules of the Ningxiang Army, the officer ordered, let's implement it, why do you have to repeat it, it's purely redundant!
Shao Wei: "What are you talking about, haven't you eaten, I can't hear clearly." ”
"Yes, sir."
"Okay, let's go ahead!" Shao Wei waved his hand and signaled to start again: "Squat in the front row!" ”
"Squat in the front row!" The first platoon of spearmen shouted with all their strength at the same time, crouched down, and pointed their spears diagonally forward.
"Second row, spear right stab!"
"Second row, spear right stab!" The spearmen in the second row also shouted at the same time, placing their spears on the shoulders of their comrades in front of them at the same time.
"Not bad!" Shao Wei nodded slightly with a dark face: "Front row, to the right, stab!" ”
"Front row, to the right, stab!"
"Second row, to the right, stab!"
"Second row, to the right, stab!"
"Three rows, forward, stab!"
"Three rows, forward, stab!"
……
The same situation played out in ten other newly formed spear hundreds. [.Lots of good]
Shao Wei stood in front of the team with his hands behind his back with a dark face, supervising the training of the soldiers. Although he used to be arrogant, he was also a cheerful person. But since he took over this team of 100 and became their officer, he always has an expressionless face when he sees people, just like his own official Lu Zhongqiu.
In fact, during this period of training, he still used Lu Zhongqiu's set of training. Although I don't want to admit it in my heart, I unconsciously work hard to learn to land in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Watching his soldiers practice the two moves of forward stabbing and right stabbing all day long, Shao Wei was so depressed that he was going to die.
This method alone can train a team that can fight?
If it really works, why don't other armies practice like this? When he was in Fengyang back then, Young Master Ben also saw the sky running to the barracks of the guard, why didn't he see them like this?
Sun Yuan's musket tactics are good, and they are also very good on the battlefield, otherwise they would not have achieved a great victory at Qingliuguan
。 But ordinary infantry can't train like this?
At this time, someone came over from there, and when he looked at it, it was Sun Yuan and Fei Hong.
Shao Wei hurriedly ran over: "I've seen General Sun and General Fei." ”
Sun Yuan smiled and said, "Practice, how is the situation?" ”
Shao Wei: "Back to General Sun's words, the soldiers have been training for more than ten days, and they are finally able to form a formation, and they have some appearances." At least, after going to the battlefield, you won't be overwhelmed by the enemy. ”
"En, yes, yes, how are the front and right stab tactics practiced?" Sun Yuan nodded with satisfaction, in fact, he didn't expect to train the infantry in these ten days. As long as they are on the battlefield and can stand in formation, even if they don't do anything, just point their spears forward and protect the musketeers.
Shao Wei was very dissatisfied with Sun Yuan's tactics, and said angrily: "What's the matter, anyway, coming and going is to stab forward, stab to the right twice, even if you are a fool, you can cook it by fighting so repeatedly all day long." ”
Fei Hong heard the dissatisfaction in Shao Wei's tone, and said in a deep voice: "Shao Wei, talk back." ”
For this future old man, Shao Wei had no respect at all, at the beginning, this old man did not eat his fist less, so he said in a loud voice: "How can it be regarded as a good reply?" Hmph, anyway, these more than 100 centaurs can understand my orders, and they can be considered neat when they shoot, isn't that enough? ”
"Well, I've been able to shoot out in unison, yes, yes." Sun Yuan nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing Sun Yuan's satisfied expression, Shao Wei was even more depressed in his heart, and he stopped talking for a long time, and finally couldn't help it: "General Sun, the last general doesn't understand, is it really easy for you to use your child-like tactics on the battlefield?" The enemy is not a clay sculpture of wood, how can he stand there and let you stab? ”
Sun Yuan smiled: "It seems that you have a different opinion on my tactic, let's talk about it." ”
There is really a shortage of cadres in the army, especially a middle- and lower-level officer like Shao Wei who can read and write, which is a treasure
! Putting aside the special relationship between the two, Sun Yuan still had high hopes for Shao Wei, so he couldn't help but discuss it with him.
Shao Wei: "General, didn't the last general make it clear just now, if you really go to the battlefield, and the enemy is not a wood carving, how can you stand there and let you stab, can't people jump to the side to dodge?" ”
Sun Yuan: "Dodge, people on the battlefield are crowding people one by one, how to hide, this dodge, isn't the formation chaotic?" ”
Shao Wei was still unconvinced: "Okay, even if the enemy can't dodge, can't people use a shield to block it?" As far as I know, generally speaking, when the two armies face each other, the strikers are sword and shield soldiers. Our army's spears are too long, they are all five meters long, and they can't be collected if they are pierced through the air with a single shot. Moreover, because the spear is so long, if the enemy is approaching, and there is no strength to fight back, how can this battle be fought? ”
Sun Yuan: "If you can ask this question, it means that you are using your brain to ponder, not bad, not bad." ”
He squatted down, beckoned Fei Hong and Shao Wei to come over, and said: "Indeed, our army's spear is too long and heavy, and it is extremely inconvenient to use. I couldn't do any other tricks, so I could only keep stabbing forward. It is easy to avoid one or two spears, but what if a hundred, or even a thousand, of them are pierced at the same time? The spears are like a forest, dodging one, and there is another. ”
Shao Wei: "But the people use sword and shield soldiers, and won't you break your gun formation with a shield?" ”
Sun Yuan: "Don't worry, listen to me." ”
He drew a dagger and drew three rows of circles on the ground, each with a vertical line in front of the circle. The first two rows are right-facing, and the third row is forward.
Shao Wei: "This is a spear array, you can break the shield with this method?" There is another point that the last general does not understand. The enemy rushed up, let's stab directly, why should the first two rows be unified with the right stab, but let the third faction stab forward, isn't this a lot of things? ”
"Yes, it's our army's spear formation." Sun Yuan bowed his head slightly and explained: "One of the characteristics of the spear formation is that the spears of the people in the first row are five meters long, and the people in the second row are also five meters, so if the whole phalanx is pierced directly, then the enemy in front only needs to face one spear, which is easy to avoid." But if the man in the first row turns the spear to the right and stabs it at the same time, then the effect is very different. The front of the right-turning spear is no more than three meters long, and if the distance between the first and second rows is a little more than a meter, then the spears of the second row and the right-facing spear are on the same front. Each enemy needs to face two spears. Of course, this is not too much, because if they still rush forward more than a meter, the forward spears of the third row are still waiting for him, and the spears of the third row are mainly used to protect their comrades
。 ”
"Well, it seems that you still don't understand." Not to mention Shao Wei, even Fei Hong, the old officer, was at a loss, Sun Yuan scratched the back of his head, and continued: "To put it simply, this is how I understand the right piercing shield tactic, due to the right stab of the opponent's first row, the spearmen in front of the sword and shield hand must hold the shield in the right hand that is not smooth, the vast majority of people are left shields and right knives, because the right hand is more flexible, and each sword and shield hand has to face at least two spears on the right and in front, the actual situation may be more, because the sword and shield hands cannot be in a dense formation like a spearman, The pressure is much greater than facing a normal battle formation. In this way, the sword and shield soldiers can easily be broken by my spear array. Do you understand? ”
The two of them continued to shake their heads, unable to digest Sun Yuan's theory.
Sun Yuan was also helpless: "Anyway, you just follow my orders, and when you get to the battlefield, you will know the benefits." ”
This phalanx of spears was actually tested in Europe at the same time, how could it be wrong.
I think that when I was in the modern society mixed military forum, there was a lot of discussion about the spear phalanx on the forum. At that time, I, Sun Yuan, also pondered for a long time to figure out the mystery.
Later, he also searched out the Spanish movie "Mercenary Legend" and watched it n times.
This time he traveled to the Ming Dynasty, and he came up with the idea of forming a spear force after realizing that with the current flintlock musket's accuracy, rate of fire, and firepower, the use of a single musketeer, it was simply not enough to suppress the enemy.
The most important thing is that this kind of soldier is very simple and cheap to train. It can be continuously produced like an industrial product on an assembly line.
Sun Yuan also knew that he was talking to Fei Hong and Shao Wei on paper now, and they couldn't understand it for a while, and everything had to be tested by actual combat.
He put the dagger back into its sheath and asked, "Shaowei, how are the recruits doing?" ”
Shao Wei said negatively: "What else can I do, anyway, it's queue training, then two moves of front stabbing and right stabbing, repeat this action all day long, no matter how stupid people can learn it." Don't say it's a hundred people, even if you give me a hundred monkeys, I will train them in the past ten days. ”
Fei Hong: "Shaowei, how did you talk to the general?" ”
