The sedan chair that has given up the small magic cannon can be said to have greatly reduced the weight on it. The things carried on the sedan chair www.biquge.info now are a total of 12 imperial mages and a commander belonging to each sedan chair carrying team. So the weight carried on the sedan chair now is about 1650 catties. Divided among each elite soldier, it takes about 55 people. In this way, there are two options for 7*7 and 8*8 squares. The specific effect and the selection of the formation will depend on the results of this afternoon's exercise. After this afternoon's drill is over, we will be able to confirm the number of elite soldiers who participated in carrying the sedan chair. When the time comes, add the imperial mages and ordinary encirclement and suppression armies who participated in the encirclement and suppression, and the members of the encirclement and suppression army this time can be specifically confirmed.

As for this huge encirclement and suppression force, whether or not it needs a specific drill at that time, when the time comes, when the team is selected for the expedition, it will be a fixed measure. Now it's just a matter of getting the step in front of you.

When the time came to one o'clock in the afternoon, the 150 elite soldiers used for the drill had already gathered on the martial arts field, as well as the two bamboo sedan chairs of 7 horizontal and 7 vertical and 8 horizontal and 8 vertical used for the exercise.

This time, it was still the adjutant in the morning who came to command. What Generalissimo Kazan had to do at this time was to make a thorough observation from the sidelines, so as not to miss some important details due to his own personal command.

With the completion of the exercise of the phalanx of two different specifications, Generalissimo Kazan also had a rough choice in his heart. On the way back to his handsome tent, Generalissimo Kazan had already thought about it, sat down next to the desk, picked up a quill pen to write and draw for a while, and then Generalissimo Kazan had already determined the specifications of this phalanx carrying a sedan chair.

Take the 8*8 square matrix specification.

The main reasons for this are as follows.

First, the rough estimate of 55 people only takes into account the weight of the population on the sedan chair, but does not fully consider the weight of the sedan chair; Second, although the 7*7 phalanx performed better than the 8*8 in the course of this afternoon's exercise, this is only the result of a short period of exercise, and on the battlefield, it is necessary to ensure that the endurance of this phalanx is durable enough; Third, although the maximum weight of these elite soldiers is not more than 30 catties, who can guarantee that on the battlefield, the elite soldiers in these phalanxes will not be attrition in the battle?

Therefore, to sum up the above three points, Generalissimo Kazan decided to adopt the 8*8 phalanx specification, on the one hand, to ensure the endurance of the phalanx, and on the other hand, to leave alternates for this phalanx.

Once the phalanx was determined, Generalissimo Kazan summoned his adjutant and asked him to go to the barracks with a height range of 180 to 190 centimeters to select 704 strong elite soldiers. These 704 elite soldiers are divided into a total of 11 phalanxes, of which 9 will become the official phalanx of the Nine Stars Eight Phalanx, and 2 phalanxes will serve as substitutes for these 9 phalanxes. At that time, in the process of encirclement and suppression, these 9 phalanxes containing imperial mages will replace each other, and those with the highest numbers will automatically be placed in the eyes of formations 1 to 8.

When the adjutant took this military order to the barracks of the military region to select elite soldiers, he was completely stunned by this group of wolf-like and hot-blooded soldiers. When this group of soldiers were selected, they were all shirtless, showing off their muscles, and if the adjutant showed a little dissatisfaction, these soldiers would hurriedly do a few movements that they had practiced during the usual drills, so as to show their might.

After a period of intense selection, a total of 800 elite soldiers who reached the standard in height and had outstanding physique were selected. The adjutant also brushed off 96 of the 800 elite soldiers based on the average height of the 11 phalanxes. After two rounds of careful selection, these 704 elite soldiers were selected. The elite soldiers who were selected were naturally smiling and happy; And those soldiers who were not selected were naturally depressed and had no fighting spirit.

So much so that for the next period of time, the Stru Military Region fell into an inexplicable depressive atmosphere.

Generalissimo Kazan, perceiving this special atmosphere, decided to give the soldiers who were not selected a collective meal after thinking for a long time. Add an extra meat dish to every meal! And this special food treatment lasted until the eve of the encirclement and suppression plan! Although it would be a huge expense to feed the soldiers of the whole military district for a long time. However, in order to appease the army and ensure the absolute success of the encirclement and suppression plan, Generalissimo Kazan decided to forcibly endure the pain. When Generalissimo Kazan thought of all the military supplies that would be consumed in this encirclement and suppression plan, the pain in his heart seemed to be alleviated a lot. Or maybe it's already completely numb.

I don't know if the treasures gathered in his dragon cave will be enough to fill this huge pit after the success of this encirclement and suppression of the mad dragon Hess.

Ay~! Who knows? First of all, there is never an absolute winner; Secondly, no one has ever been to the dragon cave, and no one has counted the number of treasures inside. On top of that, the elves have to take away 5 pieces of high-quality magical equipment.

Ay~~~! The more I think about it, the more chilling it becomes!!!

(Note: During the Spring and Autumn Period, 770 BC-476 BC, when the power of the King of Zhou weakened, the princes were in dispute, and the Duke of Qi Huan, Song Xiang, Jin Wen, Qin Mu, and Chu Zhuang successively claimed hegemony, known as the "Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons" in history.)

The story is that during the Spring and Autumn Period, the Song and Jin Dynasty formed an alliance, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the Chu State. In 607 BC, King Chu Zhuang ordered his ally, Zheng State, to crusade against the Song State.

Song general Hua Yuan led his troops to meet the battle. On the eve of the decisive battle, Hua Yuan, in order to boost morale, specially killed sheep and rewarded the soldiers. At the banquet, everyone ate delicious mutton, drank good rice wine, and was jubilant. At this time, an adjutant general asked Hua Yuan: "Why don't you see your coachman?" Hua Yuan replied disdainfully: "A charioteer, and he doesn't rely on him to fight, let him do something!" I know this in my heart, you don't have to worry about it! ”

The decisive battle between Song and Zheng began. Hua Yuan sat on the chariot driven by sheep and commanded the whole army. Zheng and Song were evenly matched, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from defeat, and Hua Yuan ordered Yang to drive the chariot to the weakest place of the enemy's strength. However, Yang Shen whipped and galloped in the opposite direction, driving the chariot to the densest place of Zheng's army. Hua Yuan exclaimed: "Where are you going?" The sheep said hatefully, "You are the one who eats the mutton a few days ago; Today's matter is up to me. That is, "the sheep of the past, the son is the government; Today's affairs, I am in charge. Due to personal grudges, Yang Chu did not hesitate to commit a shameful act of treason and drove the chariot into the position of Zheng Jun. Hua Yuan was captured, and the Song army was also defeated.

According to Yang Zhen's words, people derive the idiom "each doing its own thing", which means that within the same camp, everyone does things according to their own ideas, regardless of the whole, and does not cooperate with others.

Sheep is a typical example of harming the public with private interests. "Zuo Biography" commented on him: "With his personal regrets, he defeated the country and the people." "This incident has been recorded in history, and the sheep will be stinking for 10,000 years. Because he values a bowl of mutton more than the country. ）
