Chapter 434 Militia Tactics of Warfare

The bandits are very brave, but they are also poorly organized. Xi Zhicai also knew that he was not a famous general, and he didn't use any brains in the formation, but just put up the most basic yoke formation.

The 30,000-strong army discharged a "ten" according to the left, center, right, and back directions. The Chinese army broke forward, and the two wings were separated. The rear army, as a reserve, is always ready to rush forward and deal a fatal blow to the enemy at a critical moment.

It's a decent formation, and it doesn't have any special effects, but it can take care of all aspects whether it's marching or fighting.

"The front army is steady, and the left and right wings are diagonally forward, cutting them off!" The nervousness drove away the discomfort of Xi Zhicai's body, and he reminded Zang Ba loudly.

Zang Ba is also a veteran general on the battlefield, although it is also the first time to command such a large-scale battle, and he is somewhat in a hurry, but with the prompt of Xi Zhicai, his general orders are not slow.

"Woo...... Whining! The herald raised his horn and blew a long whistle, and the standard-bearer threw off his arms and waved the banner vigorously. The war drums then moved, exploding like spring thunder, rolling between heaven and earth, and the fighting spirit of the Taishan thief rose to the highest in an instant.

The "ten" shaped array slowly moved forward. The front army, which was about to engage the opposing side, quickly regained its composure after the initial confusion. The left and right armies, which had been greeting the enemy with feathered arrows but had received no results, dropped their hunting bows, lifted their weapons, and slowly approached in the shape of scissors.

On the other hand, the Qingzhou militia army had a strong momentum, but the effect was very bad. In the process of impact, the two flanks of the blade array have been completely detached, as if a poor workmanship, before reaching the target, the tail feathers have all fallen off, and the shaft of the arrow is also crumbling.

However. is such a team, but the fighting spirit that broke out is not at all under the Taishan group.

Although the queue collapsed in the charge, the momentum never weakened in the slightest, whether it was the arrows that were still rushing at the forefront, or the two wings and rear armies that fell behind in the middle, they maintained a very decisive momentum of impact from beginning to end.

The formation can be chaotic, but the determination to fight to the death will not change!

In this regard, some people in the Taishan group were frightened, and Zang Ba, who had always been cautious, frowned; Someone shouted mockery and abuse. thinks that the militia does not know whether they are alive or dead, Sun Guan and Yin Li wield big swords, which has a very motivating effect; is insidious and cunning, but it is a contemplative face, and the drama knows it. What the other party is thinking about should be similar to himself.

The morale of the militia is high, in addition to the belief in defending the homeland, the more important thing is undoubtedly the lead of the main general, and Xu Shu's general flag has always been at the forefront.

People's emotions are easily infected by the environment, so the lead of the main general, for the rabble. It usually has an excellent motivational effect.

General Xu has rushed to the forefront, whose life can be more precious than him?

The good days have not passed for a few days, if the homeland is gone, how will everyone live? How do the children in the family live?

Rushed up and fought. I'm going to pull a cushion even if I die!

Rush up and fight, and you can't let the robber's dirty feet step into the home and show the knife at the old and young at home!

When the core of the entire army formation embraced the will to die, the others quickly forgot their fears. There are feathered arrows flying overhead. Death is on the horizon, just ahead. One by one, the former neighbors or robes fell. The people on the move were crazy, and Gen didn't want to make any pauses.

In the end, the two armies collided solidly.

In an instant, the bandit front army shattered a thick layer like a rock that had been hammered, and the horizontal layer on the top of the 'ten' formation was almost completely flattened.

The array of sharp arrows as sharp as knives also immediately became dull, and the charging speed of the warriors in the front row dropped suddenly, but the militia in the back row continued to press up because of the inertia of running, or stabbed the thieves in the way. Or be cut down by the highly skilled government soldiers.

Layers of corpses fell, and the ground was soon covered with red mud.

Neither of the warring sides flinched, and one after the other, never stopped. This is a contest of courage and will, a contest of dignity between men. Both sides have their own beliefs, whether they are noble or despicable, and in the end they can only be proved by the knives and guns in their hands.

The effect of the terrain slowly began to appear, and with the help of the slope of the ground beneath their feet, the militia, which was inferior in martial arts and equipment, was actually on par with the bandits. The brothers in front kept falling, and the brothers in the back rushed forward like a tidal wave, and wave after wave followed.

The sharp sword slashed at the thin linen shirt, instantly cutting a hole more than half a foot long. At the moment when their physical strength was about to collapse, the calloused men reluctantly pulled out their short blades from the corpse of the enemy and stabbed them into the lower abdomen of the opponent.

The two fell at the same time, but still refused to give up, hugging each other and rolling in a pool of blood, tearing and beating. It wasn't until one of them was completely unable to move that the other stopped attacking and collapsed next to the corpse of the other, laughing and closing his eyes.

Snowflakes fell one after another, covering the corpses on the ground, red. And the heavy red color did not want to be covered, and melted the snow with his unwillingness. The wisps of white gas, one by one, converged into strands, into streams, into rivers, meandering down the hillside.

This is the bleakest scene in the world, and it is also the most magnificent scene in the world. Life comes together in the last moments into a swan song, which no instrument can play, no tune can compare.

At the very beginning, the battle entered the white heat.

Most of the Tarzan were attracted by the fierce battle, and only Xi Zhicai still kept the onlookers calm, and he felt that something was wrong.

The performance of the militia in front of us is really a bit unexpected.

There were also elite and miscellaneous soldiers in the princely army, however, although the military system of the Han Dynasty was corrupt, the deep foundation was still in play, and even the miscellaneous soldiers were composed of poorly equipped and weakly trained county soldiers.

And the so-called militia does not exist in the army of the princes, and the only one who can be compared is the Yellow Turban Army, but even if it is the Yellow Turban Army, their combat power is really unbearable.

Whether it once existed or is still there, with a similar number of people, no Yellow Turban Army can launch an attack against the official army. The only exception is Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Warriors, but their offensive often doesn't last long, and they have to be Zhang Jiao's presence in person.

"All the while. And then it declines. Three and exhaustion! ”

This quote is perfect for the Yellow Turban. As long as the officers and soldiers can withstand the first half of the hour, the next thing they will lose patience to persevere. They have no rules, no rhythm, and even mess up their own ranks. At that time, as long as you grasp the turning point between offense and defense, you can easily reap fruitful results.

Of course, the Taishan thieves are not as good as the elite troops of the princes, but they are not bad compared to the county soldiers. After all, a large part of them are some. He used to be the private soldiers of the powerful people, and accumulated a lot of experience in the battle to suppress the Yellow Turbans in the Zhongping years, so that the chaos of the Yellow Turbans was always controlled in Qingzhou, but it could not penetrate into the neighboring Langya and Xuzhou.

Xi Zhicai has already figured it out. The militia in Qingzhou came from the Yellow Turban Army, although it was not the most elite part, but most of these people had also been in battle, seen blood, and even killed people. So, their performance is much stronger than ordinary people, and even better than recruits.

But that's not the problem. In this militia that is currently fighting against the Tarzan thieves, the previous experience cannot be applied.

Although their formation was still messy, the rhythm of the attack was well controlled, showing obvious overlapping waves. Wave after wave, one after another, tireless, fearless. Either completely crush the enemy, or crush yourself to pieces.

At the crest of the wave. A scarlet battle flag stands out. Almost all the offensives were launched from that flag, and all the militias that had fallen behind, or had not fallen behind, were trying to get closer to that flag.

From the soldier's point of view, that battle flag is not only a front, but also plays the role of an eye. As long as it doesn't fall for a moment, the militia's attacks will never stop!

Xu Shu!

Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed, he knew that he couldn't let the enemy be unscrupulous and arrogant anymore. Although there are only about 10,000 militiamen in sight, there are more than one million yellow turbans in Qingzhou, even if there are only 200,000 young people among them, and Xu Shu can gather even less in the short term, which is also a very terrifying number.

There is nothing to be afraid of fighting in array, but if the front army of the Tarzan thieves is cut through, and the ambush soldiers or militia who are rushing to help the battle attack from all sides, then it will be difficult to predict the outcome of today.

"General Zhongtai, please take someone to pull out the battle flag, capture the thief and capture the king first. General Chang, you lead the rear army to press forward and stand behind the front army. Those who dare to cross your battle banner will be killed without mercy! "Xi Zhicai immediately made a decision, we can't let this battle become a war of attrition or a bad war, and we must take decisive measures to give full play to the advantages of the Taishan thieves.

The soldiers of the Zang Ba Army, their personal martial arts are far superior to the militia, and the reason why they can't overwhelm the militia in the array battle is because the thief soldiers are not good at this, and also because the organization of the Qingzhou militia is much stronger than that of the thief soldiers.

Although the formation collapsed on the way to the attack, a closer look will show that the opponent collapsed but did not disperse. Militias that have stragged behind have spontaneously assembled, often centred on people with physical disabilities or who are clearly too old.

Zang Ba and the others turned a blind eye to this, but Xi Zhicai didn't, his understanding of Qingzhou was not even below the middle and low-level officials of Wang Yu's shogunate, and he quickly reacted, what the hell was going on.

After the pacification of Qingzhou, the Qingzhou Army had a disarmament operation, and the disabled soldiers and veterans in the army were discharged from the army and became pavilion chiefs in the local area. Including most of Cao Cao's staff, people who paid attention to Qingzhou's movements didn't take this seriously, but just thought that this was just a means for Wang Yu to appease the army. But Xi Zhicai has always felt that things are not so simple.

There is a lot of land in Qingzhou, and the pension land that Wang Yu gave to these veterans can make them a rich man, so why bother to let them serve as pavilion chiefs many times?

Now he understands that this is Wang Yu's arrangement for the long-term.

These veterans' personal combat strength is indeed not good, but their experience and vision are there, and they can accumulate quite high prestige among the people as pavilion chiefs in peacetime. Once it is necessary to organize the militia to fight, these people can condense the scattered militia into small groups, and then under the dispatch of the main general, exert a force far beyond their own body!

If you want to break the game, the best and most direct way is to destroy the command center of the enemy army!
