Chapter 196: What is a Battle Formation?

At this time, on the wall of Hangu Pass, Zhong Wuzhi looked at the 600,000 soldiers of Daqin, and said: "Where is the main general?

Zhang Xie smiled when he heard this and replied: "Don't dare? Why don't you dare? Okay, tomorrow at noon, let's see how Captain Ben breaks your formation." ”

After the two talked, the Qin army retreated to Shuiyun City. In the tent of Shuiyun City, Blood ruthlessly said: "What kind of formation are you really competing with him, just go straight to it." This is a lot of time. ”

Zhang Xie smiled and said, "Do you think this is a battle between martial arts masters? If the Great Zhou is stubbornly defended, not only the time, but also the consumption of the army will be heavier.

This Zhong Wuji seems to have some good battle formation, otherwise he would never dare to open this mouth. ”

Jian Qing opened his mouth and said, "It seems that tomorrow must be a fierce battle. Alas, it was only a long time before the war began again. ”

Emperor Tianqing said: "War is a prerequisite for the creation of civilization, and unification is the ultimate effect of peace.

Survival of the fittest is the law of heaven and earth, but from the perspective of other species, human beings are in the position of fighting.

But whether it is for the sake of justice or for whatever noble sake it is, the battle itself is evil! ”

Everyone nodded, they agreed with Emperor Tianqing's words, and no one was eager for war. Everyone wants peace.

Blood ruthlessly said, "Your Majesty, is this formation of this formation the same as those Xuan formations in the martial arts?"

Emperor Tianqing opened his mouth and said: "Even if it is the same thing, it can also be said that the Xuan Array is also born from the formation of killing the enemy on the battlefield. ”

"Yes? I always thought it was the same. Blood said mercilessly.

Emperor Tianqing smiled and said: "The battle formation is in the endless killing, the original intention of the formation is a combat formation configuration in a combat situation, after the tempering of the actual battle, the power of a battle formation may be devastating, or it may collapse at the touch of a button."

If it is traced, then the formation has appeared thousands of years ago, and people are self-taught.

Formations are norms that are adapted to various battle formations, and they are accompanied by permutations and combinations.

The greatest significance is to maximize the advantage with the least number of troops, and in ancient times, the emergence of the formation was to round up giant animals in daily hunting. ”

"Your Majesty said this, then this formation is really powerful. I'll learn if it's okay. Blood said mercilessly.

Zhang Xie opened his mouth and said, "The battle formation is quite complicated. Cavalry, infantry, and archers must achieve unified command and battle in some short-handed situations, and the formation has become the basis of this general composition.

Knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, so the formation can also be a battle formation that evolves according to the terrain, the situation of the enemy and so on after obtaining the prerequisites in intelligence.

The ancient soldier saint, Sun Jing's art of war eighty-nine chapters, and four volumes of battle maps, but these things have long been incomplete in the disappearance of history, and there are ten kinds of battle formations that have been handed down now.

This is a formation that has gained experience in the ancient formation, and has been practiced in actual combat. They are square array, circle array, sparse array, several array, cone array, goose-shaped array, hook-shaped array, Xuanxiang array, water array, and fire array. But these formations are not all pure combat types, Sun Jing's ten formations, from the perspective of real use, only eight are combat forms. ”

"So much, it's not tomorrow after that. I can't learn for more than ten years. Blood said mercilessly.

Emperor Tianqing smiled and said, "What do you think? It would be nice if everything was as simple as imagined. ”

Jian Qing opened his mouth and said: "Let me give you a brief explanation, so that you can have a general understanding, and let Your Majesty and you listen to whether it is correct."

Let's talk about the phalanx first, the phalanx is the most common formation used by the army, and it belongs to the offensive formation. The phalanx is only an attack formation, and it will change formations at any time.

For example, the square formation becomes a circular formation, which is from attack to defense, and can also be changed to a sparse formation, and the role of the sparse formation is an expansive combat mode, which generally refers to increasing the distance between the line and the vertical, in which countless props can also be added.

For example, raising more flags during the day and lighting more torches at night can exaggerate the small number of troops to confuse the enemy and deter. But if it is recognized, the end is basically miserable.

As Sun Jing said, the thin, medium and thick square, similar to the sentence that the virtual is real, and the real is virtual, is to point out the variability of the phalanx.

The meaning here is that the troops in the middle of the phalanx do not need much, but the forces around them are strengthened and can bluff, but there are significant forces in defense. It has achieved a balanced performance of offense and defense, and comes with various transformations and the ability to pursue. ”

Zhang Xie opened his mouth and said, "It seems that General Jianqing has a lot of insights into the military formation. Then I'll talk about it, just exchange and learn. Let me tell you about the eight arrays, which are several arrays.

Several formations are the real dense form of battle formation, which is a battle formation that gathers forces for defense and offense. Several formations generally appear on top of concentrated attacks, and after the use of this formation, they are either a big victory or a big defeat.

It can also be said that the number of arrays is one of the craziest meat grinders on the battlefield.

There is also the formation of infantry and cavalry to fight together, and the goose-shaped formation is such an existence.

Its flanks are cavalry with strong mobility, which is used to protect the two wings and the rear, and can be coordinated when attacking, both sudden cavalry attacks and strong infantry support. The hook formation is similar, but the wings are bent backwards depending on the terrain, both to protect the flanks and to prevent enemy roundabouts. ”

Emperor Tianqing opened his mouth and said: "Very good, then I will also talk about it." Over the course of the years, there was a time when the battle formation was completely transformed into infantry versus cavalry.

It was one of the most thorough studies of infantry formations. The only thing that could defeat cavalry with infantry on the plains was a small country of that era.

There is a saying that when the enemy is in the right position, the decisive victory is in the surprise army, and the front and back can correspond, and the left and right can correspond, then they often win and are undefeated.

This is a military adage that a battle formation should be able to confront the enemy head-on, and there should be no loopholes in the front and back, left and right.

Strange soldiers are a key that must not be missing, in ancient times, Zhao Guangyi had a battle array, called the Pingrong Wanquan array.

This is a large phalanx of infantry, and it spreads wide and deep, which can effectively delay and compress the maneuver space of enemy cavalry.

And the use of this formation is arranged with strange soldiers, the archers in this formation are huge, the bow and crossbow itself is exquisitely constructed, the power is huge, in the place where the impact is large, all use crossbow arrows to meet the enemy.

The use of bows and crossbows in the battle formation varies greatly, long-range attack throwing, attacking flat shooting, and the layout will also show a ladder shape, so if the battle array is attacked into the arrow formation, it will be the end of ten thousand arrows piercing. ”

Emperor Tianqing's words fell, and Zhang Xie then spoke: "There is also the water array, the fire array. These two formations are different from on-site fighting, and they are also a formation that violates the harmony of the sky.

The former can be used as a defensive weapon, and if it is used well, it also has the effect of a surprise weapon. The latter is a mess, and no grass grows everywhere. ”

"I'm a good girl, it turns out that the battle formation is so magical, I must study it well when I have time. Blood said mercilessly.

Emperor Tianqing opened his mouth and said: "Okay, the battle formation is almost finished. Let's all go down and prepare. Judging from the current situation, the bell will definitely be in a strange formation, but it will not escape the basis of these wars.

In short, be careful, the martial arts masters of the Thousand Souls Hall and Donghua Pavilion have also joined the army. Be sure to take Hangu Pass in the shortest possible time. ”

Everyone said in unison, "Do your Majesty's will!"

Emperor Tianqing nodded and said, "Let's all go down, Zhang Xie, Lian Qi and Ruthless stay for a while." ”

Everyone retreated, leaving only Zhang Xie, Lian Qi and Blood ruthless.

Emperor Tianqing opened his mouth and said: "Ruthless, first tell me how far Donghua Pavilion has come in the past three years?"

"Back to Your Majesty's words, there are now three masters of the Donghua Pavilion Transcendent Realm besides me and Jueming. As for the masters of the Extreme Creation Realm, there are 310 people, there are 623 people in the Peak Realm, and there are 800 people in the rest of the realm. Blood said mercilessly.

Emperor Tianqing said: "In just three years, it has developed to the point where it is now. Compared with the great sect of the family, there is only a shortage of really top powerhouses. Yes, thank you for your hard work. ”

Blood ruthlessly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I should do." If a confidant dies, Your Majesty trusts me so much, I naturally live up to Your Majesty. ”

Emperor Tianqing said hello, then looked at Lian Qi and said, "How many people are there in the Xuanjia Army now." ”

Lian Qi opened his mouth and said: "The losses of the Xuanjia Army in the previous battle were not small. Not many of the people who were released back then did not come back, and the betrayers have been killed.

Today's Xuanjia Army only has 7,000 people left, but those with the lowest cultivation realm have the Tongmai Realm, and there are more than 1,000 masters in the Dengfeng Realm and the Extreme Creation Realm. ”

When Emperor Tianqing heard this, the development of the Xuanjia Army was really a bit unexpected to him. Emperor Tianqing opened his mouth and said: "Okay, just with the Xuanjia Army and the martial arts masters of Donghua Pavilion, plus me, it is enough to influence the situation in the world."

Third brother, how is the army and the local army now?"

Zhang Xie opened his mouth and said: "Back to the words of the eldest brother, now excluding these 600,000 tiger and wolf divisions, my Great Qin's elite is less than 200,000 people, plus the local army and the purple guards, as well as the defenders of the imperial capital, the total is only 600,000. ”

Emperor Tianqing nodded and said, "Enough, Great Qin is stronger than I imagined." ”

After saying that, Emperor Tianqing waved his hand, and there were three more golden pills in his hand, and Emperor Tianqing said: "You guys take this golden pill Although the grade is lower, it is enough for you to break through to a great realm without side effects." ”

The three of them were shocked when they heard it, you must know that although there are many pills in this world, it is enough for people to break through a big realm in an instant. But I really can't find any side effects.
