Chapter 15: Martial Arts (II)

"It's wonderful! That's great! ”

Mrs. Zheng saw the battlefield situation in her eyes, she was very relieved, and walked quickly to Wu Ji, smiled, and said, "Commander Wu Du, I can be regarded as an eye-opener!" It's an eye-opener! ”

After a slight pause, he sighed: "In the past, I never dreamed that the army of the Great Song Dynasty could be trained like this, so powerful. If the army of the Great Song Dynasty is trained like this, why worry that the Liao State will not be broken and the Western Xia will not be destroyed? It's a pity, it's a pity, the Great Song Wentian is martial, and the matter of training is like child's play, which can only be watched, not combated! ”

His emotion is the best illustration of the weakness of the Song Dynasty, the economy of the Song Dynasty is a peak of ancient China, it is difficult to surpass, even if the Tang Dynasty is strong, its economic strength is far inferior to that of the Song Dynasty. The financial revenue of the Song Dynasty was several times that of the Tang Dynasty, and the population was much larger than that of the Tang Dynasty. At the height of the Tang Dynasty, there were more than 70 million people, and the Song Dynasty controlled more than 100 million people, which is a remarkable achievement.

However, Wen Tian Wuhuan did nothing in martial arts, not only did not reproduce the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but also pressed and beat the nomads such as the Khitan, Jurchen, and Mongolia, and finally died in the hands of the nomads, which made countless descendants strangle.

If the Song Dynasty was not Wen Tian Wuxi, there would be no problem in reproducing the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

"In the past, the army of the Great Song Dynasty could only defend, not counterattack. Hey, even in defense, they are not so powerful, they can only be beaten blindly. The Converts Army, on the other hand, is very different, defending the center and leading the attack, and at the first opportunity, it can give the enemy a fatal blow. Mrs. Zheng then sighed, and said with great joy, her face was full of red light: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe it!" ”

It can be said that the Conversion Army was the first army in the history of the Song Dynasty to really defend the center and lead the attack. In the past, the Song army was because of equipment problems, training problems, and tactics problems...... Many problems made it impossible for them to defend in the middle and lead the attack, and the defense could only be blindly defensive, requiring them to launch a counterattack in a timely manner, and few Song troops had this ability.

"An army, when defending, cannot only defend, let alone be blindly beaten, but must seize every opportunity to counterattack!" Wu Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "The army of the Great Song Dynasty only knows how to blindly defend, but they don't know that offense is the best defense. Even if you have to defend, you have to fight back by all means! Mingjin, collect the troops! ”

"Hurry up and collect the troops, we still have to conduct offensive drills!" When Mrs. Zheng heard the word "collect the soldiers", she was even more happy. The defense of the Converts is such an eye-opener, as long as the fighters appear, they can counterattack, and their attacks will definitely be incomparable.

As soon as the sound of gold sounded, the Song army that was rushing to kill quickly withdrew, lined up the formation, and soon lined up.

Wu Ji rode his horse to the front of the battle, looked at the converted army, the soldiers were all high-spirited, their hearts were extremely high, their heads were held high, their chests were straight, just like the roosters on the victorious cockfighting ring, they almost crowed.

Wu Ji was very satisfied with the morale of the soldiers: "Brothers, the defensive drill has just been carried out, are you satisfied?" ”

"Satisfied!" Although it was a drill, the powerful combat power of the Converted Army was undoubtedly displayed, and the soldiers were 100% satisfied, and they all raised their throats and shouted loudly.

"I'm also satisfied!" Wu Ji then lectured and said, "Next, we will conduct offensive drills. You must remember that you must defend like an iron bucket, you must not leak a drop of water, you must attack with incomparable sharpness, you must be invincible, you must be invincible, and you must have an indomitable momentum! Indomitable! ”

"Unstoppable!"

The soldiers roared in unison. Especially Li Mingchu, these veterans, as soon as they heard these four words, they were excited Mo Ming. When they said that they were reinforcing Xiongzhou, they embarked on the journey with these four words. Now, hearing these four words again makes their blood boil.

Those recruits, who had heard the story of these four words countless times, couldn't help but be full of blood, their eyes were full of fighting spirit, and they all looked like lions hunting prey.

"Drumming! Offensive! Wu Jice came to the formation and waved his right hand down.

"Knock knock!" Zheng Tai clenched the drumstick and smashed it down, and the war drums shook the earth.

"Kill!"

Wu Ji gave an order, and the military formation began to move, and the speed was not fast. The military formation moved, the momentum was like a rainbow, with earth-shattering might, and a murderous aura permeated, making people's hearts palpitate.

"Break the crossbow and shoot!"

With Wu Ji's order, the crossbowman began to release arrows. It was still a third of the crossbowmen who were firing their arrows, and thousands of crossbow arrows were fired in front of them, weaving a net of arrows and covering them.

The crossbowmen in the first row finished their arrows and began to reload, and the crossbowmen in the second row followed. The crossbowmen in the second row finished their arrows and began to reload, and the crossbowmen in the third row began to release their arrows. When the crossbowmen in the third row finished releasing their arrows, they pretended to be real again, and the crossbowmen in the first row began to release their arrows. And so on, round after round of arrows rained down, shooting at the enemy formation, never stopping.

When attacking, use long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows to shoot and kill the enemy, not only killing and injuring the enemy, but also disrupting the enemy's position. On the battlefield, the dignified array is the most powerful, if it can disrupt the enemy's dignified array, cause chaos, and turn chaos into a rout, it is of great benefit, and this is a goal that a general must pursue.

The entire military array, while advancing forward, released crossbow arrows, the advance speed is not fast, but it has an invincible momentum.

Round after round of crossbow arrows covered, only to see that the demarcated enemy formation was densely packed with crossbow arrows. Moreover, as the army advanced in formation, the crossbow bolts covered the rear, farther and farther away, and at first glance, they looked like hemp poles in a rice field.

Under such a dense rain of arrows, even flies should not think of running for their lives, if they appear on the battlefield, the enemy will definitely suffer heavy casualties. Presumably, by this time, the enemy position has already been shaken, and even confused, and it is time to seize this opportunity to deal a heavier blow to the enemy.

"Cavalry, sortie!"

Wu Ji fiercely pulled out the slashing knife and pointed ahead.

"Rumble!"

The thunderous sound of hooves suddenly sounded, and the five hundred cavalry on both flanks rushed towards the enemy as if they were rushing wildly. The horse's hooves trampled, the smoke and dust were filled, and the large smoot and dust converged into an angry dragon, heading straight for the enemy formation.

"Woohoo!"

The sound of breaking the sky was loud, and the cavalry charged and shot with crossbows. One after another, crossbow bolts appeared in the air, weaving a net of arrows, and shooting at the left and right flanks of the enemy formation.

The use of cavalry on the battlefield is not only used to charge and kill, but also to disrupt enemy formations. The Broken Bow is mainly to cover the middle lane, so the two wings need cavalry to deal with.

If the Liao army did not have a cavalry weapon such as a crossbow on the battlefield, there would definitely be a lot of casualties and chaos. After the cavalry's bow and arrow were fired, the cavalry rushed with spears. The spears were like poisonous snakes, rushing straight towards them. If there is really a Liao army, the spear will make the Liao army exhausted, not to mention anything else, the chaos created alone is enough for the Liao army.

The spear came, and it was the wielded sword. The slashing knife is incomparably sharp, and it is not something that the scimitar of the Liao army can resist, and presumably this chaos will be even greater.

Just when the chaos of the Liao army was gradually expanding, the military formation had already pressed up, only to hear Wu Ji shout: "Thunderbolt, throw!" ”

I saw countless thunderbolts popping up in the air, earth-shattering explosions sounded, sand flew away, and a cloud of smoke rose up. Under such a fierce blow, it is almost impossible for the enemy to be in chaos if he is not in chaos. Even the most elite leather room army in the Liao State may not be able to resist it, and chaos is almost inevitable.

After a few rounds of thunderbolts, it was Modao's might. Five hundred Mo knives were raised high and slashed down. The remaining enemy army will inevitably be crushed under the chopping of Modao.

This time, instead of rushing to kill, the crossbowmen used thunderbolts to deal with them, throwing them wherever there were many enemy troops. With the power of the thunderbolt, it is impossible for the Liao army to resist it, and wherever it passes, it is bound to be dead and wounded.

After a fierce blow, there must have been a great confusion in the enemy formation, and at this time, it is time to divide the troops to pursue and give the enemy the final blow. Wu Ji judged the situation and yelled: "Kill!" ”

The Mo swordsman was divided into five, and every hundred people were a team, and under the cover of the swordsman, they swept away. If it is on the battlefield, the battle is fought to the current point, the enemy will not be able to resist it at all, and under the attack of the Mo knife hand, there will be heavy casualties, and the only way to escape is to flee for his life.

Want to escape? No way!

In the past, the enemy could have retreated calmly in the present situation. Now, but don't even think about it, Wu Ji ordered loudly: "Cavalry, pursuit!" ”

Five hundred cavalrymen received the order, let out an earth-shattering roar, rode their horses, brandished their swords, and pursued from behind. As far as the eye could see, the mountains were full of excited cavalry, as if they were really chasing the enemy.

In the past, even if the Song army defeated the Liao army, it would not be possible to pursue it. Because, they have no cavalry, where can two legs run more than four legs, even if they want to pursue, they don't have the strength, they can only regret. Now, it's said that the pursuit is the pursuit.

This kind of pursuit is just the beginning of a big pursuit, only to hear Wu Ji roar: "The whole army is on the horse, pursue!" The slashing knife in his hand shook, a beautiful knife flower flashed, and Wu Ji rode a war horse and galloped away.

The converted troops got on their horses one after another, and chased in the direction of Wu Jichi.

There were 2,500 horses among the 2,500 converts, and the pursuit of the 2,500 converts was exciting. At the head were five hundred cavalrymen, and behind them were Mo swordsmen, crossbowmen, swordsmen, and archers on war horses...... All the converts were chasing after them on horseback.

At a glance, I saw galloping converts everywhere, splashing smoke and dust everywhere, and shouts of killing everywhere.

If in the past, once the enemy retreated, the Song army lacked war horses, and could not pursue at all, only cursing on the spot to vent the dissatisfaction in his heart. Cursing can only vent anger, but it can't let the enemy be killed or wounded, only pursuit can achieve the goal, and the Song army lacks horses and cannot pursue.

You must know that in war, when the results are greatest, it is often not the fight on the battlefield, but the pursuit after the defeat of the enemy. When you are pursuing, you will have the greatest gain, and when the enemy is crushed, you will inflict the most damage on the enemy. In the past, the Song army could only let this opportunity slip away in vain.

And today, they are in pursuit with the whole army. If on the battlefield, the enemy suffers a defeat and still imagines fleeing calmly as before, don't even think about it, what awaits them will be a greater price.

"Rumble!"

The sound of hooves was like thunder, and after a while, the battlefield where the original killing was full of sounds returned to calm, and the converted army was gone.

They come and go faster, and that's what comes and goes like the wind!
