The movements of the Datang army are too fast!

In ancient times, there were elite soldiers, but because most of the armies in ancient times also had similar queues and formation training. But in fact, because there was no complete and unified queue password training, the elite training of the ancient army was very difficult.

As an example, the well-known Romance of the Three Kingdoms in later generations, such as several of the more famous armies in it, such as Gao Shun's trap camp, Li Ke took the formation and queue training of the elite troops of the Tang Dynasty as a reference, and he felt that Gao Shun's trap camp might not be able to compare with the array regulations of the modern army after complete training in later generations.

Putting aside how to unify the tactics of cold weapon warfare such as wielding knives and stabbing spears, let's just talk about the basic queue. Because if the basic queue is engraved in the bones and becomes instinct, these commands such as swinging the sword, attacking, and holding the shield under the unified password can be done with a little training.

This is also the reason why in ancient times, good generals were important, but generals who could train troops were even more scarce.

It is because there is no complete set of training techniques, which is also the reason why many armies in ancient times had a strong personal style of generals.

Because the soldiers are all trained by themselves, this general naturally knows how his soldiers should command the battle, and if he changes the general and is not familiar with these instructions, the combat effectiveness will of course decline.

The White Horse Righteous Servant led by Gongsun Chan is called the White Horse Righteous Servant, but the White Horse Righteous Servant trained by another person is not the White Horse Righteous Servant.

So to a certain extent, in the era of cold weapons, the formation and queue of ancient armies were much slower than those of modern times.

When they arrived in Datang, Datang's army was government soldiers, which meant that they could not train like professional soldiers all year round, and they would have to go back to farming for a few months after basic training. Until the next service.

And in this limited time, most of the training carried out by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty was a variety of formations and tactics, that is, how to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

In terms of formation and queue, it only needs to be trained to understand the command of the generals and act in unison, which is not too high. An army that can completely change the formation is already considered an elite soldier.

Ancient wars had formations, but they were not as exaggerated as those described in later novels, such as gossip formations and the like, only simple formation queue changes and so on. It was remarkable to be able to do this in ancient times.

And after Li Ke's strengthened formation and queue training, the daily life of the Datang army is now to integrate all kinds of training passwords into the bones, and when a certain order is really implemented, ordinary even recruits have no time to think about whether to do it or what to do.

Because his body is automatically engulfed by the soldiers around him, and then quickly forms a unique iron-like discipline.

Under this kind of coercion, when they go to the battlefield, even if the knife mountain in front of them is estimated to hit it, the conditioned reflex formed by most soldiers will directly hit it.

This is in the era of cold weapons...... It's scary!

Li Daozong and An Xinggui, who looked at the overall situation, immediately sensed this advantage and benefit from the city tower!

When there was something unusual in their city, the Turkic scouts who had been observing the city on the mountains on both sides noticed the anomaly, and they began to warn the large army as soon as possible.

However, the Tang army in the city completed a series of operations such as assembling, plating, running, neatly leading shields, and marching out of the city with shields to march out of the city again, and the armies of Gaochang and the Turks completed the transmission of vigilant orders!

Only then did the officers of all ranks, who saw them through the binoculars, begin to quickly call out to their soldiers in formation and run. And the Turks were also rushing towards their horses quickly, and they really didn't think that the Tang people would dare to take the initiative.

By the time their formation was completely completed, Datang's army had already begun to advance! In the front row are 1,000 soldiers holding a 1.4-meter-high, 60-centimeter-wide special giant shield, behind which there is a special iron support tripod to assist the soldiers in supporting the shield while standing.

And when it is hit by an enemy, it can help resist the impact of the enemy, and there is even a hidden buckle inside its back, which can connect all the shields into a whole and turn it into a steel wall.

It is also not a pure steel shield, but a layer of steel plate about 0.5 cm wrapped around the outside of the wood, the weight is not light, the weight of the whole shield is 60 catties, it is not difficult for a strong soldier to carry it slowly.

Behind the slow-moving steel walls were three rows of 500 soldiers with single crossbows, and next to each soldier with a single crossbow stood a soldier with a crossbow and a small round shield, who assisted in firing and shooting at the enemy with their crossbows if they broke close.

In the distance, Ju Wentai and Anda, who had finally assembled their team, saw this scene, a bright steel wall made of huge shields was advancing towards them.

These shields ...... Obviously, it is often polished, and the front is unusually smooth, and this time it is afternoon, and the westward sun makes the opponent's shield reflect the sunlight, which looks extremely scary.

"This ...... What about His Majesty the King? Shall we retreat directly? Anda's face was not pretty.

Because the enemy's body is full body armor, there are about nearly 3,000 soldiers here who are full body armor, and the news brought back by the scout on the mountain just now shows that there are obviously soldiers in the other city, that is to say, there are at least 5,000 soldiers in this small city!

The point is that they saw the enemy's war horses, and the number was not much, it seemed that there were only about five hundred.

However, at this moment, the enemy sent out only infantry, and if they wanted to retreat, they could do it, after all, Gaochang's soldiers did not have such full-body armor, and their marching speed was naturally slower than theirs.

But be careful of the enemy's 500 cavalry.

"General Anda, you are to lead your army to send a wave of bows and arrows at them from afar, and test the enemy. If we retreat directly, I'm afraid we won't be able to run at all. Ju Wentai's face was ugly, he wanted to run, but he knew very well that once he made this decision, only five hundred cavalry among the five thousand soldiers in his Gaochang would be able to escape! Now there are less than 4,000 infantry left, and thousands of auxiliaries who are auxiliary carrying supplies will not be able to run at all!

And without these armies, his Gaochang country would be finished.

The Turks could run, they all had horses, but Ju Wentai couldn't let him run! If the other party has to run, then he can't be blamed for Ju Wentai dying with him.
