Chapter 47: Step by Step (Ask for Recommendation)
Hearing this, Ni Tao's figure that was about to turn around and go down to the city paused slightly, and his face still couldn't see any dark color, just like his incomprehensible heart, "This is also what the general meant." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Great, what do you mean, the general?" The thousand people who were hunched over looked stunned for a moment, and the doubts on their faces became a little thicker.
But he never, ever, did not ask again.
"Don't think about it, since the general came to the army, he has worked hard, how can he harm everyone." Ni Tao's light voice slowly came out of his mouth.
When the words fell, while the hand behind his back was put down, he took out a token and stretched out his hand to hand it over, "Go down and make arrangements, and when the high platform is erected, you will take this token to Fengyu and bring the other half of the army here to assemble." ”
"Yes."
Take the token, and the thousand people will give it up. Then he turned and strode down the city.
After adjusting the armor on his chest, at this time, Ni Tao also followed down the city tower.
The army of 15,000 was like a long dragon pulling a long line from the city gate to trot all the way out of the city gate.
Ni Tao, who was originally riding a fast horse, was also a rare runner to follow the center of the army this time. Of course, his eyes were always wandering around along the way, constantly looking at the terrain around him and behind him. Apparently he had something on his mind.
In order to save time, the thousand people will simply build a solid platform according to Ni Tao's order, and only three people can stand on the small wooden platform, and the platform is surrounded by a wooden fence, which can be regarded as a delicacy in the busy schedule.
In addition, he also organized the people in the city and six or seven soldiers to hurry up to the high cart for the next battle.
The fifteen-thousand-strong army soon followed Wu Ming to a place three miles outside the southern city. And stand separately according to the usual training queue.
"General, the army has been formed." One by one, thousands of people will come to Ni Tao to report to him.
Ascending the high platform, Ni Tao grabbed the gray flags prepared on it and shook them a few times, and then said slowly to those thousands of generals, "Wait for the first time to return to the team, and watch the flags line up." ”
"Yes." After an answer, the thousand people will turn around and rush back to their ranks.
On the high platform, Ming Tao looked at his right hand and vigorously waved the order flag in his hand. Immediately afterwards, thousands of people will continue to command the recruits who do not understand the command flag to change positions back and forth. I have to say that formation attack is a very effective attack method, but this requires a lot, if it is a trained soldier, it is easy to say, but with a group of new soldiers, it is really a headache at first.
It took a long time for the two thousand crossbowmen standing on Ni Tao's right hand side to form a crescent-shaped formation in front of the high platform as the center, and the shape of the crescent moon gradually thickened from the side close to the high platform.
After the two thousand crossbowmen, another four thousand Changge soldiers lined up along the formation. Looking down from the sky, the formation was like a huge wing on Ni Tao's right hand.
The banner was still waving, but the next one to move was the soldier on the left, the same two thousand crossbowmen in the front, and the soldiers holding Changge in the rear interspersed the formation. After a while, the second giant wing was roughly revealed.
The remaining 3,000 soldiers were armed with spears newly supplied by the treasury, and under the waving of Ni Tao's military flag, the 3,000 soldiers with spears began to line up under the leadership of the 1,000 generals and in the middle of the two wings, surrounding the high platform where Wu Ming was located layer by layer.
Until this time, a rough crane wing array had already appeared in the open space outside the south gate of Yicheng.
Of course, this formation that had been abandoned for more than an hour did not make Ni Tao very satisfied, and even in the opinion of Ni Tao, who knew a little about the formation, this was not called the Crane Wing Formation at all.
This is just a new formation of 15,000 soldiers according to the position of the crane wing formation, and there is nothing to show for it, and it is not elegant at all.
"Alas......" sighed softly, and the breath exhaled from his mouth condensed into a burst of white mist in front of Ni Tao: "No wonder General Wu is bent on doubling the melee combat experience of these new soldiers!" If you defend the city gate without tempering, it will not be easy to defeat the Han army, let alone travel a long distance to Fangcheng to deal with the Zhao army! General Zhang, who defended the Zhao people, was afraid that it was really more than lucky. ”
The conclusion of an alliance between Han and Zhao and the joint attack on Wei has been announced to the world and confirmed. This is much better than the worst situation that Wu Ming initially expected, after all, the Qin people have no movement to send troops at this time, although there are constant movements behind the scenes, but in the end, as long as there are no troops, this is the most fortunate thing.
The original plan was that if the Qin people sent troops to Hexi, more than 10,000 defenders could keep the rules, but if they could not retreat to the east of the river, they would row the river with the Qin people and rule.
On the Zhao side, Zhang Meng led 5,000 veterans to fight with the Zhao army in Fangcheng, Xiangcheng and the defenders of several nearby small cities such as Mu and Min, using the various tactics mentioned by Wu Ming to delay time.
Because the combat effectiveness of the Korean army was weak, and Gong Zhong had no fighting spirit, the main battlefield was set by Wu Ming in the Han realm. The plan is to solve the 60,000 Han troops as quickly as possible, and then let Ni Tao lead the army to support Zhang Meng again.
As for the 15,000 soldiers that Wu Ming brought with him, he had other plans, and it would be a very good thing if he could collect some military expenses along the way.
On the whole, this is a strategy to abandon the small and win the big, and the loss of Hexi is at most a piece of Wei Huiwang's heart, but it is very dangerous to defend Zhao Ren, and it is the same as guarding Hexi, which is one of the dangerous moves.
But no matter what you say, in Wu Ming's view, such a plan is better than the joint march of Han, Zhao, and Qin. At the moment, there are no Qin people, but if they divide the troops of Han and Zhao to fight together, with the current situation of Wei State, they can only work in vain, relying on the city may be able to hold it, but in the long run, the troops will be exhausted, and no one can guarantee what the Qin people will do.
Moreover, even if Han and Zhao are defeated this time, they can still quickly recruit a part of the army, and Wei's successive expeditions are really exhausting from national strength.
Walking off the high platform, Ni Tao rode on a horse, accompanied by all the thousands of generals, and patrolled the inside of this team's huge wings like a military parade.
In Ni Tao's words, he is not good at the battle method, and if he can't put on the appearance he wants in his heart, then this battle formation will really not be able to fight.
But after patrolling around, except for the three thousand spear-wielding soldiers guarding him, the wings on both sides did not achieve the precise coordination of the battle formation.
However, in the face of these recruits, Ni Tao was also very pleased. At least there is a type, and this battle, in Wu Ming's planning, the battle formation will not play much of an offensive role.
