Chapter 832. Battle of the Teutonic Forest at Wangxingtai
It is not in vain to see so many movies and documentaries in later generations, although the weapons and equipment are far inferior to the modern army, but in terms of system, Wang Hou's army has been infinitely close to the modern army, and the soldiers have undergone extraordinarily rigorous training, emphasizing records more than any army, and the staff officer system has also been introduced.
Even if it is an officer in the conscription of the landlord cavalry, the staff officer also graduated from the Chang'an Military Academy and has received systematic military training, including the secrets of the military family in this era, the skills of camping, marching, and supplying, as well as a lot of useful and non-useful cold knowledge that Wang Hou can think of when watching documentaries and movies.
One of them, in the movie of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, before the Roman legion encountered an ambush by the Germans, there were a large number of birds that were frightened out of the forest by the nervous Germans, but under the clever words of the traitor and the leader of the Germanic army, Arminius, the commander of the six Roman legions, Varus, did not care, and in the end, more than 30,000 elite Roman legionary infantry still rushed into the encirclement, and the Germanian coalition army was almost completely annihilated in the great forest of the Germanic secluded forest.
One day, I thought about it, Wang Hou waved his pen, and in the dogma of Chang'an Military Academy, there was a complete animal observation method and a method to deal with it!
If the generals are insufficient, then use the system to make up for it!
Listening to Gao Tong's hurried roar, after exchanging a few words with him, Hu Tiehua also immediately dismounted, and thirty light horsemen rushed to the rear, ordering all troops to stop advancing, shrinking into a ball on the spot, and setting up a defensive formation, at the same time, a hundred cavalry took off their cavalry heavy armor, held swords and cavalry crossbows, and explored the past in the woods that had just flown out of the birds.
10,000 people formed a marching formation of more than three miles, and the cavalry had already run to the firearms array of the light infantry of the Chinese army in three or four minutes, but Wang Hou, who was full of anxiety, completely forgot the order he personally gave and added the regimental drill code, seeing that the troops on the march had formed a defensive regiment of fifty people one after another, blocking the middle of the road, he was annoyed and shouted orders.
"Who told you to stop? The military situation is like fire, continue to march south! ”
"My lord, a large number of birds flew in the former army woods for no reason, according to the marching discipline, it needs to be ......"
"What is so strange about the march of the army, the shouting of men and horses, and the startling of some birds......"
Roughly interrupted the report of his command, but Wang Hou's angry and anxious shouts did not wait for the shouting to finish, in the dense forest, the bow and arrows were already overwhelmingly shot down, and the bow arrows were still on fire, and one by one crackled like flying fire meteors and fell on the body of the Wei army Tielin on the march, and the pop that was stuck on the heavy infantry plate armor left a black spot, and it fell heavily, but the light infantry chain mail immediately rose a heavy smell of burnt meat, The sergeant who had been hit by the arrow fell to the ground in pain and wailed.
The position of the arrow was less than a hundred meters in front of the gunpowder army array he was in, and in an instant, Wang Hou's cold sweat fell, a good Zhuge Liang, too scheming, he calculated that after he knew the plan, he would definitely chase and kill him in a hurry, so he didn't rush to save Chengdu at all, but set up an ambush on the road that his army must pass.
It's a shame that he is still a traverser, and the Shu army used this trick to ambush Cao Cao's troops who attacked the rear army of the Shu army at Yangping Pass in the last battle of Hanzhong, and he forgot about it! In history, Sima Yiyin was loyal to Cao Wei, and did not listen to his military orders, and also impeached his general Zhang He to Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming, and also allowed him to lead the army to chase and kill Zhuge Liang who withdrew the army, but was besieged in Hanzhong by the Fa Tuan group that his army went and returned, Zhang He's troops were wiped out, and he himself was also killed.
A little later, his whole army walked into the encirclement, so many powder kegs around him, and he was shot by rockets like this, wouldn't it kill him? The cold sweat on his head was completely dripping, and he raised his head, and Wang Hou hissed and tried his best to drink.
"The ministries resist on the spot and move back! The rear army abandoned the ox cart, brought cannons and gunpowder crossbows to Lao Tzu up the mountain, and formed a formation on the spot to defend!! ”
"Drink!"
Loudly agreed, the thirty Guanzhong knights who gave the order back pulled their horses and turned around, but they ran back to the front army array that was attacked by rockets, and suddenly, more than a dozen large fireballs were burning hot, and they ran into the mountain path that had become dim and covered by the mountains in the afternoon, and two or three cavalrymen happened to be hit by the fireballs, and the oil on the fireballs splashed on their bodies, and the whole person was burned like a burning man, screaming and fluttering around.
Seeing this scene, Wang Hou was even more cold sweat on his forehead, which was specially designed to deal with his powder keg, jumped down from the ox cart, pulled Sun Shangxiang Wang Congge personally ran up the mountain with a sword in his hand, and he roared in great panic.
"Up the hill! Mountain!!! ”
This battle can be called the most tragic war since Wang Hou raised his army, the fireball wrapped in straw and oil pushed down, and slammed into the Wei army array on the march, the flames broke through the military formation, and the Wei army armor soldiers stained with fire oil screamed and rolled all over the ground and howled, and the voice was as terrible as a ghost.
Immediately on both sides of the narrow Shu Road, on a few slightly gentle mountain ridges, countless Shu troops swooped down like hungry wolves descending the mountain, and fought with the infantry of the Liangzhou Corps, which was already slightly chaotic, the road was too narrow, and there were too many Shu troops! On weekdays, it is enough to baptize them with double bows and crossbows for several rounds, but this time, after only one round of shooting, the light infantry had to draw their swords to meet them, and the heavy infantry in front only had time to chop down the heavy and slender axes and spears, so they had to discard their long weapons, and drew their swords and fell into hand-to-hand combat.
Tens of thousands of people fought together in the narrow mountain road during the collision of ping-pong ordnance.
This is the opportunity for the Shu army to dream of a fair duel, Wei Junsheng is well-equipped and well-trained in martial arts, while the Shu army is a lot of individuals! The two light infantry were back to back, wielding sharp long swords, like sharp blades in soy milk, waving back and forth in a spin, running in front of them, and the Shu soldiers who were only wearing leather armor or cloth clothes were cut down to the ground one after another, blood splattered.
But not far from them, a heavy infantry of the Wei army, who had lost his axe, gun and sword, just roared and smashed the sapper shovel he was carrying on his back into the head of a Shu soldier, and then he was strangled by another Wudang Fei soldier in the back, and in his angry roar, he knocked his heavily armored body to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, seven or eight Shu soldiers and hungry wolves surrounded them, and the sharp knives continued to pierce the heavy infantry who fell to the ground, and the blood of the red Wei army also flowed out in the screams.
The Wei army marched in formation, starting from the first half of the way, the road suddenly rose, the right side was no longer a mountain, but a rugged and steep river valley, the Wei army in a row roared in despair, while desperately sapping the sapper shovel in his hand, and the head of the ring knife was slashed at the head of the Shu army that was huddled together, and in the popping sound, the head of the Shu army lacking a helmet was cut open like a watermelon.
But even the Shu army that died in battle couldn't fall, because here, the Shu army arranged too many people, six times more than the Wei army, the people were crowded, and they didn't even fight, just roaring and roaring and crowding in front of the statue, in the desperate screams, the Wei light infantry at the back screamed first and fell down the canyon, and then row after row of Wei troops were squeezed down the mountain alive, and the terrible screams echoed throughout the valley.
The former army, the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, dismounted to avoid the first round of arrow rain attacks, this time, Zhonglang General Hu Tiehua was particularly experienced and ordered the Iron Cavalry to re-mount again, and rushed out to the south, constantly waving the saber along the way, and the Shu army that rushed down the mountain on the left was cut off by them, and the corpses were all over the field.
In the horse team, there were also screams of being pushed off the cliff from time to time, but the ironclad cavalry of the brigade still rushed out of the encirclement desperately, but before Hu Tiehua, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and the forward, on a sloping hillside meadow, where was the dense Shu army array, and a big banner with the word Zhuge fluttered again, and suddenly met the eyes of the two of them.
It was getting dark, but the screams of the fierce fighting in the canyon were getting louder and louder!
