Kong Ming took the lead in the front, the two followed, and then behind was Kong Ming's guards. When I came out, it was already late at night, and Kong Ming saw that there were still some people walking around on the street, there were mercenaries, civilians, couples, and people walking alone, in short, it was very lively, Kong Ming may have been calm after the war to make Kong Ming have some feelings, and I don't know what he has committed, he is always associated with war, and there will always be some inadvertent things that involve him in different struggles, and it is mainly war.

In the next few days, a large number of mercenaries joined the Kong Ming mercenary army, and Kong Ming also began to get busy, on the one hand, from the training of officers, on the other hand, to train the new mercenaries, so that Kong Ming also completely forgot a lot of things, on the fifth day, the climax of the time came, the snow wolf demon rode here. Kong Ming looked at the neat snow wolf magic horse, his face was surprised, he didn't expect Yi Yiyi to really bring him a magic horse, you know, although the snow wolf is a commonly used magic horse, but not everyone can have it, let alone have ten thousand such magic horses. The snow wolf is usually two meters tall, the distance from the waist to the ground is 1.6 meters, and the whole body is gray, because it originally lives in the grassland in the north, and there is perennial ice and snow, so it is also called the snow wolf, and it is the overlord of the grassland. Now most of the snow wolves on the mainland are artificially bred, so they are promoted as a kind of magic horse, this kind of monster usually eats a very large amount, but in special times, even if there is a battle, you can go without eating for many days, so it is the favorite monster of the continent's armies. Looking at these magic horses Kong Ming has an inexplicable excitement, this is a baby, seeing him staring, Yi Yiyi, who is riding a unicorn at the forefront, has some inexplicable excitement in his heart, thinking that this Kong Ming must be embarrassed that night, now this look is normal, and at the same time she also has some pride in her charm, but she quickly forgot about it, because Kong Ming's eyes looked directly through her figure and looked at the back, the group of snow wolves, and for Yi Yiyi riding a unicorn in front of him, he directly ignored it, as if there was no zài。 Seeing this, Yi Yiyi once again had a trace of doubt about her own charm, or doubt about Kong Ming, she wondered if Kong Ming was something abnormal in some way?

"How pretty, isn't it?" Yiyi looked at Kong Mingdao. She was working hard for her last dignity as a woman.

"Of course it's beautiful, if these aren't beautiful, then the magic horses on the entire continent won't be beautiful, you look at that claw, you can tear a set of light armor lightly, that tooth can easily bite through a heavy plate, look at their shining eyes, you know that this is a third-level demonic beast, oh my God, this time I can easily turn the entire Harvey Empire upside down!" Kongming's didn't stop, but Yiyiyi couldn't listen to it anymore, her beauty in men's clothes was not inferior to women's clothes at all, but from the first time they met, there was no weight in Kongming's eyes, and now, she has completely lost confidence in this man, maybe this man already has other women in his heart!

Kong Ming was very happy, not just because Yi Yiyi brought him ten thousand magic horses, but also because the five thousand people he brought were all a group, in other words, she directly gave him a mature army. These people are people who have experienced a certain amount of battle from that aspect, and those officers know at a glance that they have undergone formal military training, unlike ordinary mercenaries, and they don't know why Yiyiyi's force handed them over to Kong Ming, but Kong Ming knows that once these people are in Kong Ming's pocket, then in the next period of time, they will become an extension of Kong Ming's will, and the direction of his sword is the direction of their battle. Or because too many people wanted to contain the pace of the Harvey people, Kong Ming recruited a total of 15,000 people in ten days, and including the original 5,000 people, Kong Ming can now command a total of more than 20,000 people, which made Kong Ming suddenly bolder, and he had a lot more confidence in the three devils. So Kong Ming asked Yi Yiyi for more than 10,000 snow wolves, turned all 20,000 people into cavalry, and then re-formed a new demon cavalry based on the original 5,000 mercenaries and the 5,000 demon cavalry brought by Yi Yiyi.

The commander of the snow wolf mercenaries: Kong Ming, deputy commander: Yi Yiyi, the first regiment commander Lu Hai, the second regiment commander Che Qi, the third regiment commander Wei Qian, the fourth regiment commander Li Yao, the fifth regiment commander Deng Si, the sixth regiment commander Zhao Ming, the bow and arrow regiment leader Hou Yu, the magic regiment leader Wen Yue, the guard captain Lian Ping, a total of 20,000 people, including more than 1,000 magicians, five saints, and mercenaries are all composed of personnel of the third level and above. It can be said that the foundation of this army has been laid in this way, and it is extraordinary in terms of overall strength and surface combat effectiveness. The next days were boring, because Kong Ming on the one hand continued to let the captain and above the people train and command, and at the same time let other people continue to demonstrate the changes in the battle formation, the cooperation of the troops, fortunately, although most of these people are new recruits, but most of them are old mercenaries, and the cooperation between each other can be said to be a matter of course. As for the battle array, because of the five thousand people brought by Yi Yiyi to join, it also solved the biggest problem in Kong Ming's heart, that is, training. The methods of battle formation include circular formation, square formation, triangular formation, scattered formation and so on. Usually when defending, when camping, a circle formation is used, so that no matter which side the enemy attacks, they can respond to each other. When the enemy is in formation, the phalanx is usually used, and the use of the phalanx has a great relationship with the terrain and the types of troops, usually if two of the same armies use the phalanx, then it is more reasonable to see whose depth is more reasonable, because if there are many people in the depth, then the combat effectiveness of the front is insufficient, and it is easy to be broken through by the enemy one by one, and if the front is too wide, the depth of the people is few, then it is easy to be broken through by the enemy from the middle, it can be said that this mainly depends on the terrain at that time and the other party to arrange more reasonable. Triangle formations, usually used to tear through the enemy's defenses, tend to concentrate the main attack force in the main direction, and facilitate the breakthrough of the enemy's defenses. If the mages are focused together, it is easy for the enemy to annihilate most of the mages at once, and the amplification is worth the cost, while the second and third arrays are usually used in the archer camp, so that the archers can shoot continuously and maintain the support of the front fire. Kong Ming taught them all these things one by one, and at the same time, he was constantly rehearsing.

"What's the use of you practicing this thing every day?" Yi Yiyi asked strangely, she may be an expert in clothes, she is definitely an expert in etiquette, but for the military, she is definitely illiterate, Kong Ming looked at her strangely, and asked in a very peculiar tone: "You are the deputy commander, you don't know what the use of this person is?"

"Do I have to know? Who said I had to know this?" said Yi Yi as a matter of course.

"So are the people who sent you out brainless? actually asked you to bring me a lot of things, and then sue me that you are just a woman who came for an autumn outing?"

"Who are you scolding, I asked me to come over, I like it, what's wrong?"

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Kong Ming glanced at her, but still explained to her as a tactical idiot: " The battle formation is a method to give full play to the characteristics of an army, and the proficient mastery of the battle formation is a formation in which soldiers can give full play to their strengths on the battlefield, and different types of troops and different times need different formations, only in this way can they maximize the unique combat effectiveness of an army, otherwise, if they do not combine an army according to a certain law, then their strength on the battlefield may not exceed one-tenth, and, once defeated, then they are more likely to become an army's nightmare, because at that time, they will definitely run back until they break their own camp, so that the battle is in vain。 ”

"So what are the functions of those formations you played?" Yi Yiyi asked studiously.

If she wants to ask something else, Kong Ming may not know much about it, and he won't tell her too much, but for the military, this industry that Kong Ming was forced to join, Kong Ming is an expert in this field, and if there is a woman asking on the side, it will also make him more or less machismo vanity, so he replied: " Hehe, this thing is too extensive, today I will introduce you to the function of the circle array, this is one of the simplest formations, and it is also the most widely used formation, the circle array, that is to say, the formation is designed like a circle, and the melee troops are usually arranged on the periphery of the circle, and the most commonly used is to put shield troops on the periphery, so that when the enemy attacks from anywhere, no matter what kind of troops the enemy uses, the safety of the entire army can be guaranteed in the first time. For example, if the enemy uses magic cavalry, then you can use the characteristics of the shield on the outside, in this way, you can use the characteristics of the shield plus some measures, on the first line of defense, block the enemy, and prevent them from playing the characteristics of the cavalry, and behind these shield soldiers are pikemen, using the characteristics of the spear, assassinate those who rush over the magic cavalry, behind the pikemen, it is to put the archers, using the projectile ability, the arrows are shot, this time is not the pursuit of hits, but the pursuit of the number of covered arrows in the area, so the archers at this time are not required to be regular archers, as long as the arrows can be shot into the enemy's camp, and then later, there is the magician, no matter what level the magician is, as long as he can use magic, because at this time we can give those high-level magic scrolls to them to use, and usually let those high-level magicians make more scrolls, these are combat storage, because if a magician casts magic on the battlefield, it is not only a large consumption, but also a long time, so we usually use magic scrolls, so that we can achieve the maximum firepower coverage for the enemy within a certain period of time, so that the enemy pays a certain price, and the layers of firepower can give full play to the characteristics of the circle array。 The advantage of the circular battle formation is that it is stable, and it is not appropriate for the enemy to collapse the team at once, this formation is usually used when surrounded by the enemy, or when camping, and when the enemy situation is unknown, in short, this is the friendship of the time, otherwise no matter how good things are, they will not achieve the desired effect. The disadvantage is that the change is insufficient, when defeating the enemy, you can't quickly convert the advantage into combat power, but can only let the enemy come and go, and this formation can not be changed into other formations at will, because once the formation is changed, unless you are a very skilled soldier, otherwise, in the process of changing the formation, it is a period of chaos, and it is easy for the enemy to take advantage of the situation. ”

Next, Kong Ming explained to Yi Yiyi in detail the various changes in the circular array and some precautions in the process of fighting the enemy, and in the process of Kong Ming's explanation, that Yi Yiyi also discovered that Kong Ming was not a wood, and he could not be said to be a genius in military affairs, but he was also very diligent, and he was knowledgeable and experienced in actual combat, which was not comparable to that kind of academic person. But Kong Ming didn't realize that the reason why the other party provoked him like this was just to make him notice her. Kong Ming's words continue to make Yi Yiyi have a sense of conquest, and a maid next to Yi Yiyi, for Kong Ming's situation is obviously very much, she follows Yi Yiyi's side, in the Huayuan Imperial Capital, almost every day there are more people like the current Kong Ming, in front of the young lady constantly sell their own literary talent, of course, if there is no literary talent, from those who don't know which corner of the book, turn out some disgusting things, in front of the young lady, and Kong Ming's appearance at this time, is obviously classified into this category of people。 If Sora knew what the maid was thinking, he would have kicked her away, instead of telling them all the more while his mouth was dry.

Time has passed like this day by day, and I don't know what the reason is, the Harvey people did not come to send troops to encircle and suppress this high-profile anti-Harvey mercenary army in Kongming. And in other aspects, maybe the city lord has been cared for by some people, or this is the meaning of the city lord itself, in short, the treatment of Kongming's mercenaries is very good, which makes Kongming's very happy.

"The things you want have already been sent to every mercenary, I really don't know what you want such things for?" Yi Yiyi said puzzled.

Some time ago, Kong Ming used the excuse of a large amount of training, so that Yiyiyi doubled the amount of food supplies every day, and most of it was dry food, saying that it was to let the mercenaries eat some after training, and most of those things were put into the space rings of the mercenaries. This kind of space ring is mass-produced in the entire continent, although the power of space is difficult to comprehend, but this does not prevent the geniuses of those magicians from applying this technology that benefits the entire continent to life, and the space ring has become the equipment of the popular language, but it is also because of the limitations of technology, or because of the restrictions of the rules, the space ring can not be put into a space ring, no matter how you put it, in that moment the two rings will be broken, this problem has troubled countless genius magicians, and it has not been solved until now, so as long as you have a little money, you can have a small space ring, the standard amount is one cubic meter, and everyone in the mercenary army has one. In this ring, the mercenary has to put too many things, daily change of clothes, swords, bows and arrows, armor, daily necessities, as well as dry food and water, so many things, many people even use three or four space rings are not enough, and now in it, put so much food, Yiyiyi is very puzzled, Kong Ming did not say what activities to do, it really made her scratch her head.

In the morning, Kong Ming once again stood on the parade platform, looking at these well-prepared mercenaries, Kong Ming was also uneven in his heart, and walked to the front of the stage: "Today, we will carry out a three-day adaptability training, all of us must participate, no one is left in the camp, in these three days, we will conduct several actual combat simulations, this at that time I will try my best to arrange, to ensure that everyone has a happy battle, in this process, I hope everyone will show the spirit of a man, now we set off!" Drive in the original order. ”

Three days later, at four o'clock in the morning, the mercenary army walked on a small road, and the front had to pass through a canyon, no one knew why Kong Ming would take such a road, and some mercenaries who often moved around here clearly knew that after passing through this section of the canyon, then not far ahead was a fortress of the Harvey army, and there were not many soldiers there, that is, more than 2,000 people, and they were guarding this valley. But because the living conditions in this valley were so poor that it was impossible to live in it, after many times, they destroyed the only pass here, and their reason was very simple, that is, they could not stay here, and they would not let others stay here, otherwise who knows if there would be anyone in the way of marching from here in the future. So they chose to build a strong fortress ten kilometers outside the mouth of the valley. Obviously, these mercenaries immediately knew Kong Ming's reason, where was this simulated battle, this was actual combat! While the rest of the people didn't know Kong Ming's plans, and even except for these original mercenaries who reacted and a few scouts sent by Kong Ming, no one in the whole mercenary army knew what Kong Ming's move was, and they thought that Kong Ming had prepared something in front of them for them to have a good time in battle.

Lian Ping leaned on Kong Ming and whispered: "Commander, the front is about to go out of the valley, and ten kilometers outside the valley is the Guanpingkou Fortress." There are about two thousand Harvey soldiers inside, the fortress is twenty meters high, the city wall is made according to the first-class standard, about twenty meters thick, there are four exits, and in addition to the Harvey army, there are some civilians in the city, the number is not very large, that is, more than 10,000 people. There is a standard magic circle on the wall, but it is not open now. ”

Kong Ming nodded, looked at several regiment commanders and said, " Let me say first, the front is not a drill, we are going to attack the Harvey people's Guanpingkou fortress, the magic group, send ten magicians, sent by a regiment to send fifty magic cavalry to protect, carefully approach the city, and then quickly destroy the enemy's city wall with magic, one regiment and two regiments are on standby five kilometers outside the valley, once the city wall is blown up, quickly attack the Guanpingkou fortress in battle formation, the bow and arrow regiment and the magic regiment follow, the three regiments after the city wall is blown up, quickly detour to the left side to the opposite door, find that there is an enemy escaped, let it go first, and then follow the pursuit, remember not to block in front of them, chase from behind, so as to achieve the greatest results at the same timeto reduce losses. The fourth regiment followed behind the third regiment and waited in hiding outside the city gate on the left, like the third regiment, pursuing the enemy from behind, and the fifth regiment went from the right to the city gate on the right, like the third regiment, do you know?"

"Good!"

"Brothers, it's up to you now. ”

"Commander, what about the deputy commander?" Wei Qian asked, he had come with Yi Yiyi, but he was asked to obey her command.

"Oh, you said her, I sent someone to wake her up, and she said she was too sleepy, and she was still sleeping on top of her unicorn!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Everyone laughed quietly, Wei Qian didn't have any opinions when he heard it, you must know that the past few days are because almost all three days have been spent on the snow wolf, and everyone has not slept a peaceful night. And for men, this is nothing, and for women, this is the enemy of appearance.

In this way, in the confusion of everyone, the battle of Harvey, which shocked the mainland, began, and the starting point of this war was actually in such a small border fortress.
