"Chengguan Army?!" Lu Bu's eyebrows raised a little, what kind of strange name is this? The general elite soldiers are first named after the place, such as the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, Danyang Soldiers, Qingzhou Soldiers, and then in the name of the tiger wolf, such as the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, there is really no one called Chengguan.
"You say he's still doing standing there?!" Lu Bu asked knowingly.
"Yes, my lord!" The herald bowed his head and replied, "Now it's not just about standing, it's about walking!" ”
"Walking?!" Lu Bu was stunned, what is this.
"That's it, that's it!" The herald walked around learning the exercises of the city management army in the large camp.
"Walking?!" Lu Bu looked at the herald's every move, his brows furrowed even deeper, if he practiced standing before, Lu Bu could still understand that this was a military law, and his words must be done, after all, Liu Mang had already killed a soldier.
But now after practicing standing and walking? If it's a battle formation, it's understandable, after all, there are some battle formations that need to cooperate with each other, but does that guy know battle formations?
Lu Bu is very strange, what is this kid thinking! Cao Cao was already in Guandu and Yuan Shao, so not only did he not send chasing soldiers when Boss Lu left Xuzhou, but also let the surrounding Cao Jun give him a release, he didn't want Boss Lu's tiger to lurk around him, and he was monitoring while letting go.
Without the chasing soldiers, it was just time for Boss Lu to rest, and Lu Bu's subordinates were not only concerned about trapping and merging the iron cavalry, but also Liu Mang's urban management army.
Lu Bu was right, Liu Mang was walking for the battle formation, his war was not a changeable long snake, nor a goose-shaped formation full of attack power, let alone a defensive round shield formation, these may be very strong, but Liu Mang doesn't know anything.
So he can only use the phalanx, the phalanx that walks the right step.
"Lord!" Just as Lu Bu was thinking, the big tent was opened, and a mighty general walked in, and he said, "Lord, Han Yang took two hundred war horses from me!" "There are less than 6,000 war horses in total, Zhang Liao is going to set up three iron horses and states, but now it is difficult to achieve 3,000 iron horses in the state, and it is difficult for him to tell Liu Mang directly, after all, most of these war horses were brought by Liu Mang, so he can only talk to Lu Bu.
"Oh?!" Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and when he set up the Chengguan Army for Liu Mang, he gave an order, that is, the Chengguan Army needs to be taken directly without reporting, who would have thought that this kid would use it directly.
"He wants to form cavalry?!" Lu Bu thought about it, isn't it, two hundred war horses, but his city management army has a thousand people, he wants to ride it himself? Even if you add the generals, only a dozen war horses are enough, not to mention that Liu Mang took away those sweaty and bloody horses.
What is the use of a few hundred cavalry? Even if there are less than 1,000 heavy cavalry, it won't work.
Lu Bu hasn't thought about it yet, Gao Shun over there also came in, and he still complained, "Lord, Han Yang took away the three hundred giant shields that I trapped in the camp, these giant shields are all good treasures, they are light and thick, and the spear and big knife are difficult to penetrate, even if it is a rain of arrows, it can resist it, so every pair of Gao Shun is regarded as a treasure and now Liu Mang has taken away three hundred giant shields at once, Gao Shun is distressed, so he also came to Lu Bu here."
"He's going to take three hundred giant shields?!" These giant shields are only suitable for heavy infantry, and they are only needed by trapped soldiers like the camp, what does he Liu Hanyang think? First a war horse and then a giant shield?
At this time, another Zhang Liao soldier came over and said a few words in Zhang Liao's ear, and suddenly Zhang Liao's voice became louder, "What, he also took away eight hundred cavalry spears?" Lord, look at this! ”
Lu Bu really has a headache, what is this Liu Hanyang doing? What do you want a cavalry spear? That thing is not easy to fight in melee combat, even if you form cavalry, you should take two hundred, now eight hundred.
"Gongtai, are you also here to sue? Say, what did Liu Hanyang take from you?! As soon as Chen Gong stepped into the big tent, he was asked by Lu Bu, his face was full of doubts, and he waited until Lu Bu explained clearly before he smiled.
"I'm not here to sue" Chen Gong shook his head with a smile, the purpose of his coming was just to tell Lu Bu that they should leave tomorrow, but he didn't expect such a show.
"By the way, you don't say that I forgot, it seems that Han Yang also took seven hundred pairs of bows and arrows from Chen Deng's hands!" Chen Gong also interjected.
"If I don't beat him for a day, I'll play this for me!" In fact, Lu Bu was also very curious about what Liu Mang was doing! A thousand soldiers, why do you have so many war supplies.
Eight hundred spears, three hundred giant shields, and two hundred war horses, what are these four different things to come up with? These plus a few more can make a 5,000-part trilogy.
Don't say that Liu Mang really made four dislikes.
Two hundred war horses, all given to a hundred soldiers, one person and two horses, to maintain enough horsepower, the Arab war horses themselves exploded high, and then to these soldiers with heavy armor spears, it can be said that as long as you don't fight a large-scale war, you can definitely protect yourself.
Three hundred giant shields, Liu Mang also gave the cavalry a match, this is a treatment with the wolf riders in Bingzhou, and the remaining two hundred giant shields were assigned to a company by Liu Mang, and the shield array formed by the two hundred giant shield soldiers if they are defended will definitely be able to protect these thousand people.
Eight hundred spears were given to the cavalry, and the remaining seven hundred were given to the remaining seven hundred soldiers, and the same was true of the seven hundred bows and arrows, and the pikemen were spearmen in close combat, and archers in distant battles.
A phalanx of 1,000 people was formed, and 100 soldiers were the cavalry to protect the flag.
But someone has to ask, can Liu Mang bring all the cavalry guns that can be used in the infantry? It is true that it is impossible for conventional infantry to use cavalry guns, because once they receive the enemy's melee cavalry guns, it is impossible to wield their strength, even if they are cavalry, the cavalry spears are stabbed into the enemy's body and then pulled out their swords for melee combat, and the cavalry spears are retrieved at the end of the battle.
However, the phalanx formed by Liu Mang was different, the first row was the giant shield soldiers guarding the front wing, and the back were seven hundred pikemen, with thirty-five people in a row of twenty rows.
The soldiers in the first row generally squatted and pointed their spears in front of them, while the soldiers in the second row put their spears on the shoulders of the soldiers in the first row, and so on, so as to increase the lethality of the frontal enemy soldiers. The essence of the whole phalanx tactic is that all the soldiers work together and march together, and those who escape from the battle will be punished the most severely.
That's why Liu Mang is so strict with the standing formation, and he will never tolerate those who don't obey orders, because a single avoidance may lead to the mutilation of the entire phalanx, and thus be broken by the enemy.
That's right, this is the famous Macedonian phalanx, the phalanx is facing the enemy head-on, and the 100 cavalry is Liu Mang's mobile troops, protecting the flanks from being besieged from all sides.
It is impossible to compare these elite soldiers with these famous armies at the end of the Han Dynasty, such as trapping, such as Danyang? There are even euphorbia warriors, the first to the camp, the white soldiers, and the elite of Qingzhou!
The force of the general Liu Mang could not catch up with Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, as well as Ju Yi and Liu Guanzhang.
The only thing that can compete with them is tactics, work together, and unite as one, if those elites are tiger wolves, then the current urban management army is sheep, but once the sheep charge up and work together, even the tiger wolf must retreat.
It is better for a thousand men to exert their strength in one place than for five thousand to exert their strength alone.
When --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chengcheng built an army, Lu Bu promised Liu Mang to take the armament at will. Naturally, he would not interfere with Liu Mang because of Gao Shun Zhang Liao's report, and the next day the army began to broadcast, and Lu Bu was also very curious about what kind of troops Liu Mang had formed, and walked towards Liu Mang's camp on horseback when the entire army was drawn.
As soon as I entered the camp, I saw a neat phalanx, which looked like it was, like it was well cut, not a little more, no less.
Liu Mang seemed to be talking about something in front of this square formation, and Lu Bu couldn't help but pull the horse closer.
"Today, we're leaving here, ending our rest and entering the trip!" Liu Mang said.
As soon as these words came out, there was a hint of joy on the faces of the soldiers below, because they had been miserable by Liu Mang in the past few days, they didn't do anything and didn't practice any martial arts, just four movements, standing, walking, raising guns, and flattening.
But these soldiers were suffocated, and now they can finally rest and rest.
"Laugh, laugh, be happy, be as happy as you can!" Liu Mang also knew that these urban management troops had been suffocated, and this was what he wanted.
"Aren't you complaining that the training is boring and boring? Don't you want to change your training? Liu Mang smiled and said to them, the chengguan army under this smile is a little scared, because every time Liu Mang shows this smile, there must be no good thing, sure enough, Liu Mang threw down a large pile of cotton bags, these cloth bags were originally loaded with grain and grass, and now they are used up, but they were borrowed by Liu Mang, and they should be made, and there are two extra belts on them, which are sewn with needles and threads, a full thousand and eighty-five.
"Are these the cloth bags that Madame sewed a few days ago?!" Lu Bu looked at those cloth bags, a few days ago, his wives were not busy, it was Liu Mang who brought this kind of cloth bags in order to add a strap to them, and several women were busy.
What does he want to do?!
I saw Liu Mang pick up a cloth bag and walk to the side of the rocky slope, one by two towards the stones inside, until the whole cloth bag was filled, Liu Mang demonstrated that the cloth bag was carried on his back.
Those two straps are used behind his back, and Lu Bu seems to understand a little.
"Come and get a cloth bag, fill it with stones, take your weapons and armor, and we're on our way!" Liu Mang shouted loudly: "Do you understand!" ”
"Got it!" The following shouted in unison.
Carrying a stone on the march? Is Liu Hanyang crazy? It's dozens of miles to get to the next camping point here, and it's very uncomfortable to have a battle armor weapon, and now you're still carrying stones?
Lu Bu was about to step forward to stop it, but he didn't expect that the soldiers below consciously received the cloth bags one by one under the leadership of their respective commanders, and when they arrived on the slope of the troubled times, they filled the cloth bags and carried them on their backs.
"Good, good!" Liu Mang was very satisfied, and no one questioned him this time.
"I'm just as heavy as you! All cavalry dismount! Go and carry me the stones!" Liu Mang said.
"Yes!" A hundred soldiers also received cloth bags loaded with stones, and the war horses all carried things, which were all camp tents for garrisoning and the like.
"Run, go!" Under the sun, Liu Mang was the first to take the lead and left the camp, and the mighty city management army also withdrew here with him.
Lu Bu looked at Liu Mang who was far away, and couldn't help but worry Ran Ran and said to himself: "Is it really successful for him to train like this?!" After speaking, Lu Bu laughed to himself, he was so sentimental when he was four.
