Chapter Seventy-Four: The Battle of the Kidnapper Horse Defeats the Fish Scale Formation
Gao Chong's victory, the happiest thing is the third princess and Gao Chong's subordinates, a group of friends, the third princess is next to Concubine Cao, cheering in front of the emperor.
Li Xiao'er's face became more and more ugly.
Gao Zhong saluted the third princess and Concubine Cao, and then turned around and raised his hands to the fans who were blowing below.
The generals were also itchy by this result, and when they saw that the emperor was protective of Gao Zhong, they were secretive about this bow, and they became more and more curious in their hearts. Even the soldiers and ordinary people who watched at the scene were like this, and there was a lot of discussion. I don't know what kind of bow Gao Pet uses, whether the bow is powerful or Gao Pet already has this strength.
King Jin announced that the content of the second game was a military formation strategy competition.
"The military formation is divided into two parties, A and B, and the two sides draw lots to decide whether it is Party A or Party B, and the two sides can also be exchanged with the consent of the other party. The exchange is valid with the consent of the referee team and can only be exchanged once. ”
"Each side's offensive or defensive intentions are informed to the referee, who only communicates to the opponent the perceived action of its own side, and the referee determines the outcome of each action."
"An attack in which either side of the two sides attacks the other's baggage and the logistics are ineffective."
"Party A is a 10,000 troops composed of 4,000 Tiefutu and 3,000 kidnappers and horses on each wing, a total of 6,000 light cavalry, and the combat power of Tiefutu is about twice that of Party A, and the light cavalry is calculated according to the combat power of one to one."
"Party B can be composed of any branch of the Great Xia Kingdom, mainly including the proton army, the capture army, the strong crossbow army, the cavalry, the crossbowmen, the spearmen, the archers, the sword and shield soldiers, etc., each branch of the army can be arbitrarily determined, but the total strength shall not exceed 15,000 people."
"Strong crossbow army" This is a newly built army, when the dynasty's Chongzong Qianshun prepared to build an army, when the younger brother Chage suggested to put a strong crossbow army to deal with the Song army, he said: "The state uses the iron harrier (the elite of the elite cavalry of the Xia army, generally the emperor's guard iron cavalry, and uses him as the main assault force when fighting) to gallop across the plains, and uses the 'foot guards' (including the 'mountain army' of mountain warfare, the elite of the elite infantry of the party's border defense troops) to chase the dangerous valley. The cover can be regular, and it can not be changed. The husband and soldiers are in the trial machine, the law is fickle, the bow of the Qiang department is weak and the arrow is short, the technique is not fine, it is advisable to choose the strong Han Dynasty to be brave, teach a strong crossbow, and use the sign, Pingju is with a bow and hoe, Linrong is divided into two times, with the short of our country, the long of China, so, invincible in the world. So Qianshun agreed to Chage's suggestion and established a strong crossbow army.
"In a plain, the two sides discovered each other's presence ten miles away."
"After the two sides lose more than 50% of the battle, the other side will be judged to lose."
"General Li Xiao'er, the prince of the world, do you understand?"
"Understood." Both nodded.
"Now that it's all clear, the two sides will draw lots to determine Party A and Party B," Brother Cha took out the lottery and asked the two of them to draw.
"Lord Wang, you don't need to smoke it, let General Li pick it first."
When Li Xiao'er heard Gao Zhong say this, she was stunned, did she want to admit defeat? Looking back and thinking again, no, does he have the confidence to defeat me? Besides, do you still have to rely on the advantage of the first move to win my Li Xiao'er? Other people, including the referee team, were also shocked when they heard it, has this high pet ever fought, and doesn't know that the familiar troops that are suitable for him are more handy in commanding?
"Gao Pet, what do you mean, do you want to humiliate me?"
"General Li misunderstood, for me, I am not familiar with these two armies, in fact, I am not familiar with the armies of any country, and I have never led troops to fight, so it is the same for me."
"Haha, I thought that the money I bet on Xinyi Fang two days ago was in vain, it seems that I still have a vision, and General Li will win the last two games." A person said.
A certain B said: "Li Xiao'er has lost a game, and your money in Xinyi Fang is gone, what is so good." It seems that this is a person who bets on Gao Pet to fight.
Everyone listens to Gao Pet say this, some people are happy, and some people are worried. But there is one point, everyone is not optimistic about Gao Pet.
"Then let you pick first." Li Xiao'er thought, I know that even if you have a little bit of this military formation ability, it is just a little bit of a book, but it is just a dime a child, although you lost for a while, the other party is just borrowing that mysterious bow, and you look down on Gao Zhong even more.
"Thank you in advance, General Li, I'll pick Party A."
Unexpectedly, Gao Pet will choose Party A.
Isn't this more beneficial to Li Xiao'er? Everyone thinks that Gao Pet is irrational, and some directly say that Gao Pet is a fool.
"Are you sure?" Magistrate Jin Wang Chage asked.
OK
"General Li, do you have any opinions?"
"Nope!"
"Okay, I declare that the selection of Party A is effective! Now it is up to Party B to select Party B from the referee team. ”
After a while, Chago said:
"Party B has selected the composition of the troops, and the two sides can carry out operational deployment."
"I sent three groups of scouts on both wings, and found the opposing scouts to destroy the other side. The march of the troops slowed down by 30 percent. ”
"Party A found that Party B was marching opposite each other ten miles ahead, and Party B had 8,000 proton troops, 3,000 crossbowmen, 2,000 spearmen, and 2,000 shield soldiers, and marched in a long snake formation."
"This snake of the ever-mountain, if you hit its head, it will respond to its tail, and if you hit its middle, it will respond to its head and tail." Gao Pet meditated in his heart.
"Check the distribution of all arms of the enemy formation."
"Party B's 3,000 proton army is the vanguard, followed by 1,000 spearmen, followed by 1,000 crossbowmen, followed by 3,000 proton troops as the middle army, followed by 2,000 heavily armored shield armor soldiers to protect the handsome banner, behind the shield armor soldiers are 1,000 spearmen and crossbowmen, and the rear team is 2,000 proton troops."
"Order, light horses left and right go forward for a mile and move forward at a normal speed. The Chinese army Tiefutu followed up with a four-way column. Report enemy team changes at any time. and relative distance. "Because Party A's Tiefutu speed is too slow, such as gently cutting off the connection between Party B's striker and the rear team, Party A's attacking light cavalry can not form an absolute advantage over Party B's front army, and the referee team will rule that both sides are consumed, unable to eat each other, and now the distance is far, the long-distance attack will be judged to fail, so the two sides must approach to see the enemy change.
"Party B is slowing down and shrinking into a formation, it's a fish scale formation" The fish scale formation is a defensive counterattack camp with a large thickness on the front. The lateral posterior is relatively weak.
"In front of the enemy, the light cavalry is shrunk into two wings, do a good job of defense, prevent the enemy's impact, and wait for the Chinese army to follow." This Li Xiao'er is not bad, this is the usual defensive counterattack tactics of the Western Xia army. This positive attrition is not worth the cost. Gao Pet is not stupid to rush up and fight. Therefore, Gao Pet arranged the deformation of the crane-shaped array, which is the classic abduction of the Jin Kingdom Ma Tiefutu.
This has created a common battlefield confrontation situation. Because the infantry selected by the second party is large, the mobility is not enough, and it will rarely take the initiative to attack.
"Light cavalry in front of the left, 1,000 to the enemy's flank and rear to disturb the attack, do not attack the enemy's formation, if the enemy is out of the way, do not attack with it, should get rid of the enemy's column interception, lure the enemy out of the formation. Circle behind the enemy's flank and maintain pressure on the enemy's rear. If the enemy comes to attack from the right rear, keep a certain distance from the enemy, and if the enemy returns to the formation, stick to attack. The purpose is to lure the enemy into dividing his troops into battle and disrupting the distribution and formation of the enemy's forces. ”
As Gao Zhong expected, the enemy front army divided a thousand proton military columns to block the flank attack of our light cavalry. And from the rear team also sent a thousand blows, in order to destroy this thousand light horsemen by a two-to-one advantage.
"The light cavalry in front of the left continued to flank the left flank of the enemy with a thousand. and move closer to the team that has already come forward. The whole army was one mile forward and kept a distance of two miles from the enemy. ”
The use of live light cavalry to strengthen frontal pressure is the core of this battle, and strengthening frontal pressure can also reduce the threat of forward light cavalry being surrounded by the enemy.
"After the right army has 500 light cavalry attacking the right enemy's flank, if the enemy is blocked by the front military column, do not contact the enemy and bypass the enemy's cavalry, ensure that they go deep into the enemy's flank, and monitor the enemy after arriving at the position, and pay attention to the banner of the formation."
Li Xiao'er saw that Gao Pet had moved his own formation, and did not dare to easily block the proton military fence, the Chinese army used crossbow arrows to block the light cavalry from approaching, but Gao Pet's light cavalry did not attack deeply, but along the side and went to meet with the 1,000 light cavalry that came forward, and the original 1,000 light cavalry saw that the friendly troops were coming, and a counterattack, but the original 1,000 proton army used to block was flanked. The Proton Army lost three hundred and retreated into the camp. The light cavalry of the enemy's rear army, which came to attack, saw that it was no longer possible, and also retreated into their own position and strengthened their defense. The 2,000 light horsemen on the left side put a lot of pressure on Li Xiao'er. After the five hundred on the right side of the high pet rode to the right side, the camp of the high pet had become a horn. And the consumption generated by the continuous rapid raid with hundreds of light cavalry made Li Xiao'er very annoyed, and he moved his mind to eat this team of light cavalry.
"Army B is changing camps and adjusting to the Glaive Formation." The glaive array was stronger than the side attack, and when Gao Zhong saw it, Li had the intention of eating the light horse behind the flank.
"The right light cavalry 2,000 arc attack the enemy's right mid-waist, do not enter the enemy's gun formation, such as the enemy's rear cavalry to intercept, and destroy with all your might. After penetrating, maintain an attacking posture behind the enemy's flank, and wait for the flag of the Chinese army. The Chinese army advanced a hundred paces. Light riders on both sides to keep up. ”
"Behind the enemy, the two thousand proton troops will face the right side of the A army." The referee Wei passed on the response of Group B.
"The left rear flank attacked the cavalry of the army behind the enemy with all its might, and after penetrating out, it joined up with the right army and maintained an attacking posture. Following the order, the Chinese army moved forward fifty steps, "Gao Zhong is to destroy Li Xiao'er's rear army, less than three thousand five hundred cavalry. As soon as the cavalry of the rear army was wiped out, Li Xiao'er's main long-range force was opposite the front army, and there was no long-range defensive force, so he had to change camps, otherwise he would be ravaged.
In this round, Party B lost 2,000, the remaining proton army was 1,400, Party A lost 1,000, and Party A had 3,400 light cavalry on the right side.
"Continue to attack the army behind enemy lines. The Chinese army took a hundred steps forward and was ready for battle. ”
"The cavalry of the rear army of Party B was completely destroyed. Party A had 3,000 light cavalry behind Party B. Party B's 2,000 proton army returned to the back road. Rounding array. ”
"The light cavalry on the left side will attack to support the enemy cavalry, and the left side of the Chinese army will attack the proton army on the left in a cone shape of 2,000, and converge with the light cavalry behind the enemy, and do not enter the enemy's middle army." This mainly pinned down the cavalry in front of the enemy, and prevented the light cavalry after the proton army surrounded it. If B defends the main formation with the Chinese crossbow army, and the proton army destroys the flank and rear light cavalry, it is another major change, such as the high pet will do this.
But there is no need to continue the battle here, and Party B is bound to lose. At this time, the referee team has made a signal that the competition is over. I saw that Li Xiao'er was sweating profusely, his face was flushed, and he was exhausted.
