588. Roman Clamp Gate Fish Scale Array

Sure enough, when I came to Lu Zhai, I saw that the people around me were sparsely populated, and there were only some people standing guard, and among them there was Zhuge Liang, who was playing chess in the military tent.

I walked over quickly, and I said, "Kong Ming, what are you doing?" It's besieged outside, and you still have the heart to play chess? ”

"Brother, look, my game of chess is called the Eight-Faced God and Buddha, this sunspot looks like a dragon entering the hinterland, and I am about to take down all the territory of the white characters, but can you see the surrounding formations?" Zhuge Liang played with a white seed in his hand.

I couldn't cry or laugh: "When is it, if you have something, just say it, I'll listen." ”

"Good!" Zhuge Liang laughed, and immediately put a chess piece on the case, and directly blocked a large number of sunspots, he said, "Brother, it seems that Li Cunxiao has returned to heaven." ”

"Yes, it's still a military advisor's clever plan!" I said.

Zhuge walked up to the city tower, shook the feather fan gently, pointed to the direction in the distance and said: "This is the fish scale array, the general is located in the formation, the main forces are assembled in the center, divided into a number of small phalanxes in the shape of fish scales, arranged according to echelons, the front end is slightly convex, and it belongs to the offensive formation. ”

He smiled slightly: "The enemy's purpose now is obvious, that is, he is looking for an opportunity, and intends to capture the gate of my cottage in one go, and when the time comes, he will directly pass through the fence of the Lu Zhai and kill directly towards Liangshan in our rear. ”

"And then?" I looked at Zhuge and felt that he was starting to play some tricks again.

Zhuge smiled: "Brother, do you know that this fish scale array is not unique to our Middle Earth, in fact, far away in the west, there is a mutation formation of the fish scale array. ”

"Oh?"

Zhuge didn't seem to be worried at all that the enemy had already arrived in the city, and even talked about some past events in the Western Han Dynasty.

In order to fight against the Northern Xiongnu Zhizhi Yu, who was the enemy of the Western Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty sent 40,000 troops to the west.

When the army arrived at Zhizhi City, they were surprised to find that there was a peculiar mercenary army in Zhizhi Danyu's troops.

It wasn't until the end of the battle that the soldiers of the Western Han Dynasty knew that these soldiers were actually from a distant and unfamiliar country.

This is the remnants and main legions of the First Roman Legion led by Crassus, one of the three giants of the Roman Empire, to scatter and strayed into Central Asia.

After arriving in Central Asia, these Roman soldiers maintained their independent ways of fighting and way of life, and they settled down here and gradually flourished.

However, at this very moment, a war changed their fate again.

Some of the Roman soldiers who were exiled to Central Asia defected to Kangju, and the other part served as mercenaries of the Otsuki clan.

There was turmoil in the Otsuki clan, and Kushuang, one of the five vice-kings, started a war and assumed himself the king of the Otsuki clan.

The four defeated vice-kings fled east to the Hexi Corridor in the Western Han Dynasty with their armies and subjects, including those of the Romans.

There, these Roman soldiers were properly housed. The Roman soldiers who defected to Kangju were not so lucky, as they were drawn into the war between the Northern Xiongnu and the Western Han army.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu on the border of the Western Han Dynasty have suffered many blows. In 57 B.C., there was a situation in which the Xiongnu were juxtaposed.

Hu Han Yeshan Yu declared that he belonged to the Western Han Dynasty and led his troops to move south to the vicinity of Yinshan. Zhi Zhidanyu, who was an enemy of the Western Han Dynasty, led his people to flee in the direction of Central Asia to the west for fear of the Han evil and the Han army attacking him.

When Zhizhi Danyu's army arrived in Kangju, there were only more than 3,000 people left, but Zhizhi Danyu soon got the help of Kangju, and the king of Kangju not only placed Zhizhi Danyu on the eastern border, but also lent him his Roman soldiers, and in this way, the remnants of the Roman legions became mercenaries of the Northern Xiongnu army.

With the help of Kangju, Zhizhi Danyu soon became strong again, and humiliated the Western Regions states, building Zhizhi City, ready to compete with the Han Dynasty army.

In view of the fact that the activities of Zhizhi Danyu seriously threatened the security of the vassal states in the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty sent troops to attack Zhizhi Danyu.

When the Han army surrounded Zhizhi City, they found these peculiar soldiers in the opposing army, Zhizhi City not only had a heavy wooden city outside the earthen city, but also more than 100 infantry people sandwiched the door fish scale array.

According to the Han Dynasty's previous understanding, it was impossible for the Huns, who were nomads, to master these tactics. What is even more amazing is that when fighting, these soldiers are armed with huge shields that are one person high, and they form a square formation, wrap the team in a tight line with shields, and then shout slogans and march forward in unison.

When the enemy is far away, they first throw out their spears, and when they get closer, they draw their short knives for hand-to-hand combat.

However, due to the disparity in strength, this peculiar tactic did not change the outcome of the battle, because the heavy cavalry of the Han Dynasty was very fast, and in an instant, the phalanx of Roman soldiers was surrounded, and then attacked from all sides, easily breaking the phalanx of Roman soldiers.

In the end, the Han Dynasty army broke through the city of Zhizhi in one fell swoop. And those poor Roman soldiers, there were only about 100 left, and they became prisoners of the Han army.

But this clamp door fish scale array let the Roman soldiers kill more than 10,000 Han soldiers, this formation is similar to the Han fish scale array, but more perfect, more special, they lost in the reason for the defeat of the cavalry with supplementary troops, if the Han also out of the infantry at that time, the victory or defeat is really not certain.

I said, "Strategist, are you planning to use this Clamp Gate Fish Scale Array?" ”

Zhuge laughed: "Yes! ”

As he spoke, Zhuge walked to the front of the stage and looked down with me, only to see that there was a general in the enemy formation at this time, and the general was surrounded by a group of soldiers, and that person was Tong Guan.

Tong Guan looks quite middle-handed, and he looks like a rather dignified middle-aged man, but his eyes are hanging eyes, which looks very vicious.

"Liangshan thief, the heavenly army is at the gate of the village, if you don't surrender again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" As he spoke, Tong Guan raised the accessories in his hand.

Tong Guan himself doesn't know any martial arts, but his power is monstrous.

At this time, a man came out of Tong Guan's array, he waved his gun and said: "I am Zhao Xi, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army sticks in Tokyo, I heard that there is a thief named Lin Chong in Liangshan who is the former head of my official position, and now I follow the general here to challenge Lin Chong, Lin Chong is a thief, dare to come down to fight?!" ”

I looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "What about my eldest brother?" ”

"It will appear soon, but the current situation is still up to the lord to deal with it."

"Oh?"

"Now the lord is the lord of Liangshan, and he will personally go into battle, behead this guy under the horse, strengthen the military prestige of our three armies, and improve our morale, but be careful in everything, then Zhao Xi has been in the limelight in the capital recently, and he can be regarded as a good player." Zhuge Liang said.

I lifted the Zhu Yinggun and said, "Okay, then I'll go down and meet him, Kong Ming, do you need me to delay time?" ”

"Yes, the lord who knows me!"

"How long?"

"Half an hour." He said.

I nodded, and immediately walked out of the city gate, standing under the city wall single-handedly, I said: "Zhao Xi, here is Lin Chong's brother, if you can win me, then you are qualified to deal with my brother, if I can't beat you, then you should go back directly, go to your mother's arms to beg for milk!" ”

"Yellow-haired child, dare to slander me, come and die!" As he spoke, Zhao Ximeng clamped the horse's belly, and the whole person rushed over, his armor and cloaks flew over, and he knocked on my head with the water and fire stick as soon as he saw it.

I laughed, and immediately tightened the reins of the horse, and the front hooves of the horse were raised, and the horse's hooves trampled on Zhao Xi's chest, good guy, before he could fight, he was directly kicked down by the smoke and clouds, and rolled to the ground, looking very embarrassed.

Before he could stand up, my spear pointed a little forward, and immediately pierced his throat, and Zhao Xi whimpered, and fell to the ground and died.

I lifted the corpse with a vermilion gun, put it in the air and said, "Is this what you can do with the officers and soldiers?" Can you make your grandfather have a good time, send some minions over, it's just looking for death! ”

"Lin Xiongtu, long time no see." A magnetic voice appeared from a distance, and when I looked at it, it was Gao Changgong!
