Chapter 163 Military Exercises Surprise Yugu
Agoura looked at Zhuang Shujun, the captain on the observation deck, and saw Zhuang Shujun bowing his head slightly, indicating that the exercise could begin. Vertices
Without further hesitation, Agoura raised his hand and commanded in a loud voice:
"The whole army is ready!"
All the cavalry, infantry, and the navy, which was already on the water, answered in unison:
"Good"
Indicates that it is ready.
The salute bearer lit the salute, and a bouquet of salute flowers "swished" and went straight into the sky.
A loud "bang" resounded throughout the sky, shaking people's hearts and trembling.
The people on the observation deck and the people behind them were all silent, without making any sound, just nervously and attentively looking at the battlefield.
The battle formations were also in full formation, waiting for Agoura's orders.
Agoura glanced at the battle array opposite, with spearmen in front, spearmen in one hand and shields in the other, pikemen behind, axemen, and archers at the rear.
The cavalry was guarded on both sides.
After a little thought, Agoura raised his hand and gave an order:
"The archers obey the order and attack immediately!"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The drums of war immediately sounded.
Five thousand cavalry archers immediately slapped their horses, and the horses rushed to the opponent with neat steps.
Seeing that the five thousand archers were about to enter the opponent's attack range, Agoura ordered again:
"The cavalry immediately set off and rushed into the enemy line."
The purpose is very clear, that is, to disrupt the opponent's formation.
Fifteen thousand cavalry immediately galloped away and rushed towards the opposing side.
And the defender, Lin Zhiqiu calmly waited for the approach of the archers, and first ordered:
"Spearmen, shield defense!"
The spearmen in front immediately raised their shields in their hands to prevent the opponent's bow and arrow attack.
When the archer comes into range, he unleashes his arrows.
However, almost all of them were blocked by shields.
Lin Zhiqiu also ordered in time:
"Archer, release the arrow!"
The arrows immediately rained out.
Some of the attackers' horses and soldiers were shot at the vital point, because the arrows were made of non-sharp bamboo, so they could not hurt their lives, but the soldiers who were in the vital position still took the initiative to ride their horses and withdraw from the battle formation.
After all, this is just a drill.
When the archer entered the range of the spear's attack, Lin Zhiqiu immediately ordered:
"Spearman, throw!"
The spears, which were not sharp, immediately flew out.
As the spear flew out, Lin Zhiqiu ordered again:
"Left cavalry, set off immediately and intercept the enemy!"
To the sound of war drums, 10,000 cavalry galloped out.
When the cavalry behind the other party also came up, Lin Zhiqiu ordered again:
"Right cavalry, go!"
In the blink of an eye, the two teams of cavalry fought in the middle of the battlefield.
Although the weapons are replaced by not too sharp ones, the competition on the battlefield is indeed real, guns come and go, knives and axes come and go, and the killing on the battlefield is not tragic.
Horses neighed, human voices boiled.
Those who are in the middle of the body will take the initiative to leave the battlefield.
Many people are really hurt.
Even the people sent by the Southern Tang Kingdom to watch the battle couldn't help but sigh:
"The cavalry of the Cloud Feather Country is no less powerful
Nantang! Trained by a 'magical horse trainer'! ”
These are all elite cavalry trained by Chaolu, not only the horses are neat and measured, but the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is also good at one and ten.
Seeing that the cavalry battle was about to end, both sides invariably sent pikemen and quickly joined the battlefield.
The drums beat loudly, and both sides wanted to force the other to retreat in one go.
However, on the battlefield, they were evenly matched, no matter how high or low.
Subsequently, the axemen were also sent into battle.
At this time, the cavalry had basically completely withdrawn, and in the war, after all, it was still dominated by sword and axe hands.
The battle formations on the battlefield are constantly changing
The attacking side began to rampage with a long snake formation, intending to pass through the enemy's formation, splitting it into two, first messing up its formation, and then attacking its people.
After being dissolved by the other party with a crane wing array, it was transformed into a sharp arrow formation, and Agoura took the lead and ran at the front, indeed having the courage of ten thousand people, and he had the upper hand for a while.
Lin Zhiqiu also knew Agoura's bravery, and did not dare to face the enemy head-on, but changed to a circular formation, surrounded layer by layer, making it difficult for him to break through, besiege first, let him fight tired, and then confront him head-on.
The battle formations are constantly changing, and the two sides are fighting each other, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
At this time, on the Zhusha River, the navy also began to fight on the water.
Each side sent 200 large and small ships, lined up in a neat fleet, and sailed mightily on the Zhusha River, which was also very spectacular.
On the main ship, the bunting was waving in the wind, and the fleets of both sides were advancing rapidly, and finally encountered in the middle.
On the 800-meter river, the battle of the sailors is also in full swing.
Colorful flags fluttered and drums sounded.
Swords and arrows come and go, and the battle is fierce.
The people watching the battle were so nervous that they didn't dare to speak, and in their eyes, this was a drill, and it was clearly a real battle.
With no artillery, water combat quickly changed from flying arrows to hand-to-hand combat.
From time to time, people are thrown into the river.
"Puff puff puff"
In the sound of falling water, a miserable cry kept coming.
The leaping figure, the dexterous posture, and the brave battle are fiercely carried out on the battlefield.
Lin Zhiqiu has been commanding the battle, seeing that Agoura's physical strength is almost exhausted, but he is still struggling to support on the battlefield, as a comrade-in-arms, he admires his bravery, and as an opponent, he is glad to meet this opponent.
The main general is in the battle array, no matter how brave he is, how long can he fight?
Lin Zhiqiu specially ordered a few masters to besiege, so that he had no time to command his team, so that more and more people fell on the attacking side.
Lin Zhiqiu, who used to be the head of the beggar gang, his martial arts are actually not weak.
Although there is still a certain distance compared to Agoura, it is difficult for ordinary generals to compete with him in war.
However, Lin Zhiqiu knows that in many cases, wars are by no means won by individual combat effectiveness, but by overall combat strength.
Therefore, he has always focused on the battle, giving orders and commands at any time, so that the battle formation changes with the battle.
He knew that as a manager, command was his main duty.
It's not that he's afraid of fighting, he was born in the rivers and lakes, and he has had countless battles large and small.
He was only responsible for his own soldiers.
This is what Zhuang Shujun told him.
Finally, the battle was about to end, and Lin Zhiqiu handed over the command to the deputy general, and went into battle himself to fight the opponent's main general.
Sometimes, the main general also has to play in person.
For example, now, if you don't fight, even if you win, it will be difficult to improve your morale and your reputation in the army.
Leading by example is sometimes the greatest encouragement to soldiers.
Fortunately, at this time, Agoura was already at the end of his crossbow.
And Lin Zhiqiu has just started to fight, and before he can compare, the outcome has already been decided.
The two main generals finally fought together.
Holding a big knife, Agoura strengthened his internal strength, and danced a set of tiger knives with a tiger's wind.
Lin Zhiqiu was not to be outdone, holding the Autumn Wind Sword in his hand, and fighting with all his strength with a set of Autumn Wind Sword Techniques.
Swords come and go, one sword is stronger than another, one sword is as fast as a sword, and the two figures have become the most dazzling light on the battlefield.
These two leading generals turned out to be martial arts masters.
The spectators were dazzled and dizzy.
After a hundred moves, Agoura's speed finally slowed down.
He's so tired!
However, his character of never admitting defeat made him insist again and again, and now winning or losing depends on the battle between the two main generals.
Agoura felt that his martial arts were higher than Lin Zhiqiu's, and he was the one who deserved to win the most.
It's just that at this moment, he feels powerless, and he took the initiative to attack, but now he only has the ability to parry, and has no power to fight back.
He began to regret that he had taken the lead and joined the battle too early, and now that his internal strength was exhausted, the other party had recuperated for a long time, and it was the time when his physical strength was at its strongest.
One hundred and fifty moves later, Agoura was already losing ground and the situation was precarious, and he was already unable to resist.
The guards around him wanted to relieve the siege for him, but they were also stopped by Lin Zhiqiu's side and couldn't get close.
When it was more than one hundred and eighty moves, in order to dodge Lin Zhiqiu's fierce attack, Agoura fell down in a rapid retreat, and Lin Zhiqiu's Autumn Wind Sword was forced three inches away from his throat.
At this time, the sun is in the west, and the time has passed.
Zhuang Shujun on the south observation deck immediately stood up and shouted:
"The victory and defeat have been divided, and the war is stopped!"
He was the commander-in-chief of this military exercise, and he was also quite emotional when he saw that the battle situation on the field had ended.
Sometimes, winning or losing is not necessarily determined by strength.
Most of the soldiers who were still fighting on the field stopped immediately when they heard Zhuang Shujun's shout, and only a small number of them were in the middle of the battle, and those who didn't hear it were still fighting happily.
It wasn't until the person next to him reminded me that he stopped.
The people in the distance, hearing Zhuang Shujun's words, felt a little reluctant in their hearts, and they all stood in place with some unfinished feelings, looking at the soldiers who were slowly retreating on the field.
The 30,000 alternates also entered the field in time, firstly to treat some unfortunate wounded soldiers, and secondly, to clean up the messy battlefield, and to pack up weapons, arrows, and the like.
And the two people on the lookout gradually left accompanied by Jiang Yunyi and Zhuang Shujun.
Seeing that the sun was setting, it was almost evening, and the people at the scene slowly receded.
One by one, they happily talked about this military exercise.
Some people were amazed by the victory of Lin Zhiqiu's side.
There are also people who deeply regret the defeat of Agoura's side.
However, whether it was Agoura's courage or Lin Zhiqiu's calmness, they were deeply impressed.
Relatively speaking, the young and vigorous Agoura has been recognized by more people, and it can be said that although he is defeated, he is still honored.
Soon, this wonderful military exercise spread throughout the entire Yugu Continent, and the story became more and more divine, and the plot became richer and richer, becoming a classic passage for many storytellers.
At the same time, it has also won more and greater reputation for Yunyu Kingdom.
