Chapter 34: Defense and Offense

In fact, before the fight started, the right guard soldiers led by Hou Junji were much weaker in momentum. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Next, it is Su Dingfang's home field.

Although Fang Xu Fang Zhonglang has some insight from later generations, after all, it is only on paper, and Su Dingfang has experienced more than ten years of war, at this time the 36-year-old Su Dingfang is at the peak of the general, two years later, Su Dingfang followed Li Jing to fight in the east. Turkic, long drive straight in, Wei Zhen Beidi. Therefore, Fang Xu will not be thankless, and the layman will command the insider. Fang Xu is not stupid, does he have an abnormal desire to behave, why not let such a famous general not use it, and copy the knife himself.

As for the use of only 1,000 people, it was also a decision made by Su Dingfang and Liu Renliang after careful deduction.

You must know that in history, during the reign of Gaozong Yonghui, the conquest of the West. In the Turkic war, Su Dingfang used 500 to break the formation and overthrow more than 20,000 cavalry of the Western Turks.

When both sides enter, the school field is in place. I only heard Su Dingfang shouting: "Order, the ten battalions of the Red Army, the square circle formation is defensive to meet the enemy." ”

The square circle array is a combination of the square array and the circle array, consisting of a plurality of square formations to form a large circle array, the general is located in the center of the formation, the peripheral forces are deployed layer by layer, spears, bows and arrows are outside, and mobile forces are included, which are used when engaging superior enemy forces.

Tactical Thought: Dense Defense. The formation of the square circle array is dense and the defense is strong, because the dense formation restricts maneuver and lacks changes, it is difficult for the enemy to pursue when the enemy retreats, and the offensive is poor.

This formation is Sun Bin, one of the ten formations in Sun Bin's art of war, but Sun Bin himself has not used it, and then Zhao Kuo of Zhao State was the first to use, with more than 200,000 Zhao troops to form a square circle array, surrounded by the Qin army and has run out of food, the Qin general Bai Qi recognized this formation, did not dare to attack, only to defend the main roads of Changping, the Zhao army defended for more than 40 days, and then fell because of the lack of food.

Hou Junji saw that Su Dingfang had formed a square circle array at the beginning, thinking that Su Dingfang was planning to waste time, and it took more than forty days to kill Zhao Kuo in history, and he only had ten hours. If Su Dingfang's defense could not be broken in ten hours, the two sides could only be regarded as a draw. 10,000 Zuowei elites can't take a thousand people, plus what happened just now, which makes Hou Junji unbearable.

Therefore, Hou Junji shouted, "Order the three armies, a long snake formation, press on the whole line, and break through the enemy's defense." ”

A long snake formation is arranged into a long formation.

The whole formation is divided into three parts: the head, the tail, and the guts. When the formation changes, the real and the false are used together.

The long snake formation is deduced from the habits of the snake, and there are three variations of the long snake formation.

1. Hit the snake's head, tail movement, and roll;

2. Hit the snake's tail, move first, bite;

Three, the snake body rampage, head to tail, twist!

With these three changes, the long snake array operates, like a giant python attacking, attacking fiercely! The mobility of the two-wing cavalry (the most mobile class in ancient times) is the most important, so the best way to break the long snake formation is to limit the mobility of the two wings so that they cannot look at each other. Therefore, the best way is: pull its head, clip its tail, and cut its waist! Specifically, set a trap in our infantry formation, use two infantry phalanxes to cooperate to stop the movement of the opponent's cavalry on both flanks, so that it cannot exert its ability to move and be flexible, and then launch a strong impact on its snake belly infantry with strong heavy cavalry, so that its formation is scattered and disorderly! In one fell swoop, the infantry phalanx was defeated and the long snake formation was cut into three pieces, so that the long snake formation was fighting on its own, and it could no longer fight with the cooperation of the three parties, and the formation would not attack and break itself!

However, it is a pity that Su Dingfang has only one light cavalry of a hundred people and a heavy cavalry of a hundred people. Unless you are desperate and rush, although there is a chance of success, it is more likely to fall into Hou Junji's army and be dumplings, as long as Su Dingfang is in charge, Hou Junji will definitely be encircled, and the long snake formation will be encircled, it is simply not too casual, maybe this is also a factor for Hou Junji to choose a long snake formation.

However, at this time, as long as Su Dingfang could withstand the attack of Hou Junji's one-word long snake formation, and finally fought in a confrontation situation, Su Dingfang would have won.

In the stands, Li Shimin Junchen watched the two sides on the school field set up a position, and they both thought that Su Dingfang was planning to be a turtle with a shrunken head. However, in the opinion of Li Shimin and others, this is indeed a very good and correct choice.

After all, they were not Fang Xu, at this time, only Fang Xu knew that Su Dingfang was showing weakness to the enemy and luring the enemy deeper, Fang Xu firmly believed that attack was the best defense.
