When the coalition side made up the idea of fleeing, this lone army became a thorn in the eye of the coalition commander, and they had to be pulled out so that the passage could be opened for the withdrawal of some troops.

The coalition army gathered all the remaining 5,000 cavalry and 800 chariots, preparing to make a desperate bet, first rushing away from the outflanked infantry, and then gathering forces to block the Mo family's cavalry on the flank.

The build-up of the coalition cavalry was soon discovered by the infantry on the march.

Their own cavalry also discovered the movement of the coalition cavalry, and the cavalry of the coalition army before retreated behind the infantry, so that the Mo cavalry, who was thinking of attacking and driving them away, could not find a chance to make a move.

Four brigades, a total of 6,000 light cavalry, had not participated in the battle, and at this time, the officers were relieved to see that the cavalry of the coalition army was preparing to attack.

But soon the actions of the allied cavalry and chariots were incomprehensible to the officers of this cavalry.

"What do they want to do? Without the cooperation of the infantry, we were on the flank, and they dared to charge the infantry directly? ”

Almost all the brigade-level officers looked at the preparation of the allied cavalry and chariots, and felt that such an officer would be court-martialed.

There was no artillery, the infantry was still gathering behind, and the most important thing was that the six thousand cavalry were on the flank, and it was really a bit unreasonable that they dared to make the decision to storm the infantry.

It's just that the reason why they feel unreasonable is because they have learned the experience accumulated with countless defeats and blood in another time and space, and the coalition army has only been moving from chariots to stirrup cavalry for a few decades, and they have not yet figured out how to use cavalry.

The puzzled cavalry officer discussed it and made a decision not to intercept the coalition cavalry, but to wait until the coalition cavalry and chariots were frustrated to attack their own infantry, and then support from the flank, so that their own infantry could stick to the opposing cavalry, so as to annihilate the last cavalry of the coalition army in one fell swoop.

"Find a few fast horses and pass the news on."

Soon, several scouts with excellent horsemanship and fairly fast horses were spotted and quickly galloped towards the position of their own infantry.

The marching infantry had chosen to stop, and there were no nearby knolls to seize and no uneven ground to occupy and defend.

The cavalry and chariots of the coalition forces on the opposite side had begun to assemble and deploy, and the deputy commander of the infantry division leading the team gave the order to form a formation.

Three companies formed a group and formed a phalanx in the vicinity, and the brigade artillery that followed the advance was also deployed in the gap between the phalanxes.

The company commanders shouted military orders, the drummers beat the drums of the changing formation, and the soldiers hurriedly followed the movements of their usual training, standing side by man.

"Get on the short spear!"

The company commander's orders drowned out the chaotic footsteps, and the infantry, who had already assembled in formation, quickly drew their short spears from their waists and inserted them into their flint guns.

The three brigades had assembled ten phalanxes, staggered by about eighty paces from each other, exactly the gap between the original three companies.

The small cannons of the various brigades were deployed in the gaps in the phalanx, and the gunners hurriedly loaded them with gravel and iron filings.

It took only half an hour for the entire army to stop marching and expand into a phalanx.

"Squat down in the first row!"

The deputy brigade commander or brigade commander brigade representative in the center of the phalanx gave orders, the junior officers repeated the order loudly, and the soldiers, although well-trained, were still panicked.

There has always been only their cavalry rushing at others, and there is almost no time when the enemy's cavalry attacks themselves, although they have been trained in how to deal with cavalry in peacetime, but after the cavalry of thousands of people is deployed, it is still scary enough to look at the momentum.

The tactics were set by the giants, but no one knew whether they could stop the cavalry, because they had never fought in actual combat.

The soldiers were confident in the giant's tactical system, which was an impression that had been slowly formed, but when they really saw the dense cavalry unfolding in the distance, the soldiers were still panicked.

On the side of the coalition army, several nobles of the doctor-level climbed into the chariot, and they did not ride horses because they felt that riding horses would violate the rules of the nobles, so they still chose the chariot.

The hundred chariots of the first wave of impact were the division of the Son of Heaven, which was the elite brought by Zhou Tianzi from Luoyi.

The chariot was followed by the foot soldiers recruited by the Son of Heaven, and unlike Qi Wei Han, who had studied the battle with Sishang for a long time, the army of the Son of Heaven still retained the orthodox establishment, but the establishment had also been greatly reduced.

Behind each chariot, thirty men followed, following the chariot in a loose formation, relying on the chariot to open the gap and then hand-to-hand combat.

These orthodox nobles still retained the aristocratic way of fighting, there were no musketeers on the chariots, but elite aristocratic archers, and the way of fighting was not to charge directly, but to shoot arrows from the side, and then rotate the chariot to get close to hand-to-hand combat after shooting a gap.

A nobleman from Luoyi boarded the car and looked into the distance, looked at the Mo family infantry who had changed from marching to phalanx in a short time, and said to the car next to him: "If you are in danger, you will change your formation in an instant, and you may not be able to win." ”

Holding Ge Cheyou is also a nobleman, and he only said in his heart that such a fast change of formation speed means that it is difficult to defeat, but at this time, he can only say: "The world is in chaos, only death." ”

The two tacitly knew each other, and each nodded in encouragement.

Urged by the sound of drums, the hundred chariots under the command of the Son of Heaven took the lead in launching an attack on the side.

The horses were steered, and the heavy chariots squeaked and ran very fast on the flat ground, and when they were about three hundred paces away, the chariots began to accelerate, and the apprentices behind them began to run with them.

In front of them, the Mo family infantry who were already waiting in formation felt that the earth was swaying with the chariot, and the chariot that was galloping was visually shocking.

Many of the soldiers were panicked, as if they were about to jump out of their throats, and the veterans who were squatting in front of them put their flint guns on the ground, and they were actually very flustered when they were half-squatting.

In addition to the whistling of the chariots, the shouts of the officers were heard.

"Steady! Steady! ”

The meaning of stability is not only to stabilize the formation, but also to not listen to orders and not to shoot.

The first salvo must be fired after the enemy approaches, otherwise it will not be able to make a gap in the opposite side, and it will be easily rushed away.

The officers kept their composure as much as they could, while some of the backbone inkers were concentrated in the formation, and once the perimeter of the phalanx was rushed away, they needed to be the first to go up.

The small cannons only had one chance to fire, and they could only be fired when the enemy approached, and then they had to quickly hide in their own position.

The distance of hundreds of paces was very fast for a chariot that did not need to be in formation at all, and on the front of the chariot, an orthodox nobleman with all six arts was holding a bow and arrow, calm and spirited, the quiver hanging from his waist, and the white tail feathers were pinched in his hand.

The grooves of the delicate jade wrench are stuck in the bowstring, and the bow used on the chariot is more powerful than the bow shot by the nomadic horseman, because it is easier to cast on the chariot.

This aristocrat is very confident in his archery skills, and he is famous for his quick arrows.

This nobleman was very orthodox, his family was not allowed to engage in commerce, he never rode a horse with stirrups, his own private soldiers and private dependents were not worthy of muskets, and he never used luxury goods such as glass and porcelain from Sishang.

He is also a maverick in Luoyi, but there are also many people who appreciate his association with him, and think that he is the real nobleman, and he also thinks that talents like himself are the backbone of the world.

It wasn't that he had never seen a musket, but he was quite disdainful of the speed at which it took half a day to reload.

He can shoot four arrows in an extreme amount of time, and he can hit the bull's-eye within forty paces, and a musketeer can reload desperately with a maximum of two shots, but he can achieve twenty shots between two shots of the musket.

He also debated with others, believing that the root cause of today's chaos lies in people's hearts not abiding by the law of etiquette.

Like a simple musket, countries are starting to use muskets, why?

Because there are not enough shooters to be selected.

Why can't there be enough shooters?

Because the township shooting system was destroyed.

Why was the township shooting system destroyed?

Because many people do not abide by the rules, open up private land, private land trading, so that the original village community of the home land borrowing system has been destroyed, many people in the village community because of the enclosure of land or land trading tends to be poor, so that there is no time to shoot in the countryside, how can they practice village shooting if they are not full of food?

The basis of the village archery system is the village community registration system, where the farmer's land is changed every ten or twenty years, and it cannot be bought or sold or transferred, and only one season of grain is planted every year, and after cultivating the public land, he has time to practice archery.

In other words, it was a system of ownership by the landed aristocracy, and the land of the village community was not owned by private individuals but by the nobles, and it was forbidden to buy and sell, and each family was guaranteed 100 acres of land, so that the village shooting system could be maintained, so that muskets could not be used at all.

Therefore, he believes that in the final analysis, it is precisely because of the collapse of the system in the world that people are confused, which has led to all kinds of situations in the world that he cannot accept.

Therefore he forbade the peasants in his fiefdom to use iron tools; Watching others enclose land and make a fortune, he was not enthusiastic, but continued to maintain the rules of planting one season a year and performing martial arts in winter in his fiefdom; It is strictly forbidden for farmers in their own fiefdoms to cultivate land without permission; In addition to the necessary work on the public land, he applied benevolence and compassion for the people.

And he believed that if every nobleman and doctor were like himself, the world would definitely return to stability.

Such an orthodox aristocracy was extinct in Sishang twenty years ago.

But in Luoyi, there are still quite a few.

Today, some of the most orthodox true aristocratic gentlemen in the whole world have gathered here and launched the most heroic charge in the face of the Mo family's infantry phalanx.

When the chariot galloped forty paces from the phalanx and began to turn, the nobleman who was skilled in archery caught a feathered arrow and shot it, thinking that today he would let the world know that the bow and arrow will never go out of style, and that it is only because you do not know how to use it that you can use muskets.

The dense formation of the Mo family infantry was armless, like a huge target, he shot an arrow, and someone fell in response.

With a flick of the wrist, three more feather arrows were sandwiched between the fingers, and the index finger moved flexibly, and once again hooked the bowstring with the thumb and tiger's mouth to clamp the feather arrows, and quickly pulled them apart.

Bang......

At this moment, the Mo family infantry in the phalanx finally waited for the officer's order to shoot, and more than 100 muskets on the front shot out at the same time, and the small cannons that had been loaded and waited for a long time also let out a roar.
