"Mandarin Duck Formation and Sancai Formation!"

Lu Bu roughly knew the Mandarin Duck Array and the Sancai Array, but he hadn't read the military book written by Qi Jiguang in its entirety.

But it doesn't matter, according to the main combat methods of the Mandarin Duck Formation and the Sancai Formation, and then according to his many years of military career, as well as some of the experiences of leading troops in Bingzhou.

Lu Bu compiled a method of military training that was more suitable for this period.

For example, the musketeers were changed to crossbowmen, and the wolf squirrels were temporarily replaced with halberds, and then returned to long bamboo according to the situation.

"Mandarin Duck Array, Sancai Array!" Gao Shun whispered the names of these two formations.

I don't know why the general chose such a strange name for the formation.

But it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that the formation is really good.

Gao Shun, who has led troops and trained soldiers for many years, knows that the general's formation is better than his own.

Of course, it's not easy to practice well.

Lu Bu patted Gao Shun's shoulder. "General Ben knows that you are good at training, so he has entrusted this burden to you. I hope to see a strong army born in your hands in three years! ”

Three years of the Army, ten years of the Air Force, and a hundred years of the Navy.

This is not a joke.

The new tactics were immediately popularized to the whole army, and within a few months, tens of thousands of people were trained to become a strong army.

This is a man of God!

Neither Lu Bu nor Gao Shun has this ability.

One person can only train a maximum of three hundred, which is the limit.

After these 300 people are successfully trained, they can become army commanders, even chiefs, centurions, Dubo, and 100 generals. At that time, thousands or even tens of thousands of people can be trained.

Wait until the third batch before it can be extended to the whole army.

Combined with factors such as the creation of weapons and equipment, it will take almost three years.

Gao Shun heard that Lu Bu trusted himself and wanted to reuse himself.

He clenched his fists and shouted, "No! The last general will definitely let the soldiers practice this formation. It's just that the last general still has some questions about this formation? Please also ask the general to give advice. ”

"Where don't you understand? You said! ”

Lu Bu and Gao Shun discussed the Mandarin Duck Array for three days.

In the past three days, Gao Shun came to Lu Bu's side as soon as he woke up every day and asked him for advice on the Mandarin Duck Array and the Sancai Formation.

There are some details that Lu Bu did not pay attention to and ignored. was asked by Gao Shun, and he found out what he had missed.

Under the exchange and learning of the two people, the Mandarin Duck Array and the Sancai Array slowly improved.

Almost familiar with this tactic, Gao Shun began to select and train soldiers.

After years of training, the soldiers of the trap camp have taken shape.

Trying to get them to learn new tactics can easily lead to confusion in behavior.

What's more, the trapping camp can be said to be heavy infantry.

It can be said that it is very rare to practice.

If you don't practice well, you will lose a lot of combat power.

Lu Bu asked Gao Shun to keep the trapped camp, select 300 suitable soldiers from the surrendered Xiliang soldiers, and learn the Mandarin Duck Formation and the Sancai Formation from scratch.

The greatest power of the Mandarin Duck Formation is not individual bravery, but teamwork.

With 11 people as a team, the first is the captain, and the second two hold a long card and a rattan card.

The shield bearer holds a long shield to block the enemy's arrows and spears.

Rattan is armed with a light rattan shield and a waist sword, and in addition to covering, it can also engage in melee combat with enemies.

Behind the shield hand are 2 men holding three-meter-long halberds,

Euphorbia assassinates the enemy, covering the advance of the shield hand and the attack of the pikemen behind.

Then there were four spearmen with spears, two on the left and two on the right, to take care of the shield-bearers and halberd-bearers on the left and right in front of them.

They were followed by two crossbowmen, who were responsible for long-range support while monitoring the battlefield.

The division of labor of various weapons is clear, and as long as each person is proficient in his own kind of operation, the key to effective killing of the enemy lies in overall cooperation and prohibition.

The "Mandarin Duck Array" not only closely combines the spear and the shield, the long and the short, giving full play to the effectiveness of various weapons, but also changing the formation flexibly.

According to the situation and operational needs, it can be turned into a 'two-talent array' or 'three-talent array' suitable for small-scale operations.

In addition to the individual soldiers to train diligently. How you command is also crucial.

For the Eastern Han Dynasty, which did not have communication equipment, when there was a change on the battlefield and it was necessary to change the order.

It is simply unrealistic to let the generals shout one by one and notify them.

So I want to command like an arm.

The first point is that the fighters should always know what they should be doing now.

Advance, retreat, hold on, or attack......

What should I do if I encounter an unexpected situation, such as an incomplete combat team and a colleague is injured?

Wait a minute!

These are all necessary in daily training, repeated training, so that the soldiers and soldiers can develop muscle memory to be qualified.

Another point is the issue of command communication.

This required the non-commissioned officers to be clear and standardized in the spoken language, and at the same time to be able to understand the flags, drums, and other means of conveying orders.

These also require the soldiers to train repeatedly, and as long as they see the flag and hear the sound of the drums, they can react immediately.

In a word, this new tactic does not take a year and a half to train, don't expect to be able to use it flexibly.

After six days in Yiwu, Lu Bu returned to Chang'an.

As a general of Zhenxi, he has a lot of military and political affairs to deal with.

Not to mention.

In the era of cold weapons, in the north, if you want to rely on infantry to fight the world, it is simply a fool's dream.

Cavalry is the key.

Gao Shun trained the infantry, and Lü Bu also had to train the cavalry.

In the barracks sixty miles outside Chang'an, Lu Bu was training 3,000 light cavalry.

These cavalrymen were carefully selected by Lu Bu and were good at riding and shooting.

Unlike the previous cavalry, these cavalrymen only had simple leather armor, wooden shields, sabers, and bows and arrows.

In terms of establishment, it is also established and commanded according to the current military system.

Ten people for a squad, thirty for a platoon, one hundred and twenty for a company, three hundred for a battalion, and one thousand fifteen hundred for a regiment.

There are two cavalry regiments here, and Cheng Lian and Wei Yue will serve as the commanders of the cavalry regiments.

There were no arrow targets on the barracks training ground, only humanoid grass targets.

At a distance of about seventy or eighty paces, the cavalry had to draw their bows and arrows on the back of their galloping horses and shoot their arrows at the straw men.

A platoon of thirty horsemen galloped along the runway, and it seemed that they were about to run parallel to the straw men.

The cavalry hurriedly drew their bows and arrows, looking almost there. As soon as their fingers loosened, the arrows slashed across a parabola and flew towards the straw men.

It is not difficult to shoot on horseback, but it is difficult to shoot at the target.

Thirty arrows hit less than seven of the straw men. Even if these seven middle fingers may be blinded.

Rows of cavalry rode their horses and galloped past, and Lu Bu's face became more and more ugly.

He couldn't help it, he took the carving bow in his hand, and scolded loudly:

"You bastards, stop. Look at what shit you're cumbing. Stop, come here. Look how I shoot arrows! ”

Hearing the order, Wei Yue hurriedly surrounded him with cavalry.

Lu Bu rode the red rabbit horse to two hundred paces away, and he gently knocked the groom with both feet.

The red rabbit horse immediately spread its hooves and ran forward.

When he was nearly 100 steps away from the grass target, Lu Bu immediately drew his bow and arrows.

See.

As soon as the finger was released, the arrow flew out like a streamer, hitting the straw man's head with a bang.

This is not over, Lu Bu quickly took out an arrow from his mouth and continued to open the bow.

Woohoo......

The cavalry on the side shouted in surprise.

"Ah......h
