Chapter 507: The spears are in formation

However, after pounced, the Hun cavalry found that everything was completely different from what they imagined, the Wei pikemen lined up in a dense forest of guns, just like a hedgehog that made people have nowhere to put their mouths, it was difficult for the Hun cavalry to find the flaws in the Wei army's battle formation, and they didn't know which direction to attack from for a while.

Since he became an infantry captain, Yang Hu has focused on training the pikemen of the infantry battalion in battle formations.

Yanghu knew very well that it was unrealistic to improve the overall quality of the infantry battalion in a short period of time, so he deliberately strengthened the combat formation training of the infantry battalion, because the enemy facing the upcoming battlefield of Bingzhou would be the Hun cavalry, and the infantry had a natural disadvantage against the cavalry, even if he did his best, he could only be invincible.

As for the victory over the cavalry, it was a complete luxury, the infantry was beyond the reach of the infantry in terms of speed, the cavalry could be defeated and defended when advancing and retreating, and remained undefeated without a fight.

But it is not easy for the infantry to be invincible, the cavalry has a strong impact force, once the infantry battle formation is broken through by the cavalry, the next battle will be a one-sided slaughter.

How to make a new army have the ability to fight cavalry, Yanghu also has to think of a way in the battle formation, infantry against cavalry, the most ready-made experience is the spear formation, which is also the most effective means for infantry to fight cavalry without relying on other equipment.

However, there is a relatively rigid requirement for the spear formation, that is, the infantry battle formation must be tight and tight, the pikemen who form the battle formation must be consistent, and must have a high will to fight and the determination and perseverance not to fear death, and everyone in the battle formation must strictly obey the command, obey the order, and no one shall act without authorization.

In other words, the pikes must be formed as a whole, even in the face of the frantic onslaught of the enemy's cavalry, and the formation must not be scattered in any way from beginning to end.

Such an organic whole, if there are loopholes and flaws in any place, it will be devastating for the battle array, and the embankment of a thousand miles will collapse in the anthill, and the enemy cavalry will break through at any point, and the spear battle array will also be destroyed.

Therefore, when he was in Anyi, Yanghu paid close attention to the training of the battle formation, hoping that in the battle with the Hun cavalry, he could have the strength to fight.

Although the time is still short, the infantry battalion has achieved good results in the formation of spears, you must know that these soldiers from the crop man never knew what a battle formation is before joining the army, but under the diligent study and hard training, they still mastered the simple method of arranging the formation and the essentials of combat, and can meet the requirements of Yanghu in training.

However, it can be formed in the training, but once it enters the actual combat, the situation is different, after all, on the battlefield, facing a murderous enemy, facing death and blood, whether the new recruits who have just entered the battlefield can defeat the demons is still a huge suspense.

However, the situation forced Yanghu to leave limited time after all, there was no way, he could only take such a brand new team to the front line, and the Hun cavalry was a narrow encounter, this battle will be the time to test his training level.

Even though Yanghu has no bottom in his heart, he must also organize this spear battle array, only in this way can he resist the attack of the Hun cavalry.

The morale of the Wei army was not weak at all, after the order to form a formation was issued, everyone could quickly run to their positions, without a trace of chaos, the entire spear array was orderly and tight, and everyone performed their duties and waited for the battle.

This made Yanghu very pleased, it seems that the infantry battalion is already very proficient in this spear formation, and the speed of the formation is even faster than the training, it is obvious that the Wei soldiers also feel the tension of the situation, they run quickly, before the arrival of the Hun cavalry, first line up to their own positions, do not give the Huns any chance to break through.

In addition to pikemen, sword and shield soldiers and archers are also in place simultaneously, so the joint training of the three arms has been carried out many times when they were in Anyi, so they will not be too rusty in terms of coordination.

The main reason is that the Wei army is now all angered by the Huns, in front of them, they killed hundreds of Han slaves, the tyranny of the Huns made the Wei generals angry, and at the same time made them understand that in the eyes of the Huns, the Han people are really not as good as pigs and dogs, if this battle fails, their fate will be even worse than these Han slaves.

If you don't want to die under the iron hooves of the Huns, then you can only rise up and fight, and there seems to be only one way in front of the Wei soldiers, and they naturally actively respond to the battle without reason and unconditionally, without the slightest slackness.

Brodon couldn't help but be furious when he saw the hesitation of the vanguard, it was time for him, and he was still afraid, he really didn't know what these rice buckets were doing before.

Broton ordered an attack to destroy the Wei defenses at all costs.

The iron hooves of the Huns rumbled again, and they came towards the battle formation of the Wei army, and after confirming that they could not find the flaws in the battle formation of the Wei army, the Hun cavalry had to ram into the pikemen, trying to take advantage of the advantage of speed and force a gap in the battle formation.

Before the Hun cavalry could rush to the front, the archers in the center of the battle formation were the first to shoot arrows.

The archers had a natural advantage, and arrows flew over the heads of pikemen and sword and shield men, and shot at the high-speed Hun cavalry.

The Hun cavalry had many arrows, fell off their horses, and were trampled to death by the Hun war horses that came from behind, in fact, these arrows were not necessarily fatally wounded, but once they fell off the horse, they had no chance to stand up, and they were quickly trampled into meat paste.

The archers have made a lot of contributions in this battle, they continue to shoot, shooting a lot of Huns, if it is not for the strong blocking of the archers, the pikemen will withstand the unscrupulous attack of the Hun cavalry, whether this formation can hold on, is a big problem.

With the strong resistance of the archers, the Hun cavalry lost a lot of men and horses before they approached the battle array, and also brought a certain psychological shadow to the Hun cavalry when they attacked, which was of great benefit to the entire spear battle array.

Although this spearmen battle formation is based on pikemen, it is a combination of pikemen, sword and shield soldiers, and archers, all of which are indispensable.

Only the tacit cooperation of the soldiers of the three arms can become a magic weapon to defeat the enemy, and can they face the Hun cavalry and be truly invincible.
