A thousand generals, with a thousand generals leading the troops. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sui Shi famous general, Yang Su a Wenchen, but in and out of the general, invincible, he used soldiers, strict military law, but the rewards and punishments are clear, so the soldiers use their lives.

Shi Wansui is different, he must be the vanguard in every battle, he leads the troops and does not even pay attention to military discipline, but what he brings out is a fierce soldier who is as fierce as him and is not afraid of death, no matter how many enemies he faces, they can be fearless.

There are also so many famous generals in Datang, Li Jing, Li Jiwei, Chi Gong, Qin Shubao, Cheng Biting, Jin Danxiong, Luo Shixin, Duan Zhixuan, etc., of course, there is also that outlier Li Chao.

But no matter what kind of style those generals have, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are difficult to fight and often win battles.

The east bank of the Wei River.

Chi Gong, who has long been a household name in the Tang Dynasty, is wearing the imperial black iron armor and holding a horse lance, and behind him is a cavalry ready to go.

This battle is extremely dangerous.

But he persuaded and persuaded him, now that the two armies have been fighting, at this time, he no longer talks about whether he can fight, whether he should fight these, and now in his eyes, there are only those Goguryeo people, and in his heart, there is only the will to fight.

Go all out and finish this battle first.

Wei Chi Gong originally asked to play the vanguard, and let him lead the cavalry to a hard-to-head cavalry battle with the Goguryeo. Although there were only three thousand people, he was not afraid.

But Li Chao refused.

"This is not the time to fight bravely, you are now the commander of the cavalry, part of this entire army formation."

As the fiercest general in the whole army, with the fiercest 3,000 cavalry in the whole army, he is now lined up on both flanks and flanks of the entire army formation.

Three thousand cavalry, divided into three parts, each part divided into several teams.

He couldn't fight if he wanted to, so he could only act as Li Chao's orders to act as the two wings and flanks of those infantry to protect them.

In February, the cold wind is still howling, and the spring is cold, making the wind like a knife.

The Goguryeo people's charge was interrupted by Li Chao's gadgets, and their momentum was repeatedly decayed, but they could not stop the Goguryeo people's final attack.

"Teacher, can I know the name of this formation?" Looking at the knights who were getting closer and closer, Wang Xuance asked Li Chao.

Li Chao groaned.

This phalanx was originally taken from the Spanish phalanx, but in this era, the concept of Spain did not exist.

In this world, there is no Spanish phalanx.

This phalanx appeared in this world for the first time.

"Let's call it the Pingliao Great Phalanx!" Li Chao said.

This phalanx was first used in the war with the Goguryeo people, and Li Chao named it after it. In the future, he will definitely be able to make greater contributions to the conquest of Liao.

"Shield!"

On the front line of the battlefield, one after another phalanx Tang soldiers clearly felt the deterrence of the enemy, and the frozen ground under their feet that had not yet thawed was shaking, becoming more and more intense.

The entire army array, at the forefront, was a phalanx of eight two hundred people.

11122111 in a formation.

Each phalanx of 200 people kept a certain distance. Between the formations, there are also squads of jumpers.

Goguryeo's cavalry was like a huge wave coming, while Li Chao's military formation seemed to be like a full of gaps.

Li Chao didn't put up that kind of continuous formation, they were all huddled together.

That kind of military formation, in fact, has very low practical performance.

It's not a gatekeeper.

In the field battle, when there is no camp fence, you must not set up such a formation. Because of such a formation, there was only one contact with the enemy, and only the first few rows of soldiers could engage the enemy.

The soldiers in the back are actually ineffective, on the other hand, the soldiers are all huddled together, and after being punched out, there is no effective change to remedy.

Opposite.

The big array that Li Chao is now putting out, the big formation, the middle formation, and the small formation, there are gaps between each formation, and they form a whole large army formation, while maintaining independent performance.

Leaving gaps between formations seems to allow enemies to rush in easily.

But rushing in is not terrible, but it is a good thing, because the formations themselves are independent of each other and interrelated, so the enemy rushes into the large formation and enters the gap between these phalanxes, then they will be attacked by several phalanxes at the same time.

The Tang Army's attack surface is larger, and it can play a more effective blow.

On the other hand, these gaps between the phalanxes will allow those enemy troops to instinctively go deep along the gaps, which is a guide array.

The deeper you go, the longer you will be hit by the various formations.

If Li Chao's soldiers were elite enough, or the muskets of those musketeers were replaced with Changcheng-style muskets and Yanshan-style three-eyed guns, with a longer range, and with strong bows and crossbows, then this military formation was almost invincible.

Even in the face of fierce cavalry, in front of this hot and cold combination of guidance array, it will not be pleased.

To break this formation, they must not rush and fight, once they rush into the phalanx, they are doomed. Unless they advance cautiously step by step, destroying one phalanx after another, otherwise, they will lose.

Zhu Zhendong was the captain of the musket team, subordinate to the Shenji Battalion, and at this time he was standing in the first row with his team of fifty people.

He stood in the middle of two phalanxes of two hundred white-robed troops.

As the leader of the team, he must stand at the front of the team, behind him, the flag bearer and flag guard, and at the back, the deputy supervisor of the team.

When fighting, the team must take the lead and be at the forefront of the battle.

Therefore, Datang's team is the most likely to be killed and injured in battle, but it is also the easiest to make meritorious contributions. Those who can survive can also be promoted quickly.

Go up further, and you no longer need to be at the front.

With a bow in his hand, he was nervous.

Looking at the man who was running closer and closer, his knuckles were white from the excessive force on his bow.

With the shouts of the generals one by one, the shieldmen in front of them raised their shields one after another.

Zhu Zhendong also had a shield in front of him, but it was stuck in the ground, and he didn't catch him. He now holds a bow in his hand, and he has a lot of strength, but he has not been good at archery.

The bow in his hand is a strong bow, and ordinary people can't pull it open.

"Bow!"

Another shout was heard.

Zhu Zhendong hurriedly held the bow and raised it, and mounted the arrow.

He was very nervous, but he didn't look around, but tried to restrain his nervousness, allowing himself to stare at the cavalry that was getting closer and closer in front of him.

In the Tang Dynasty military law, the crossbowman is in battle, and after putting on the bow and arrow, he looks to the right and beheads.

There are hundreds of military laws in the Tang Dynasty, and the more than 300 articles at the front are all beheaded. When charging in battle, those who rush too quickly out of the military formation are slashed. Something that looks left and right when in battle, slash.

Military judges may not really strictly follow military regulations, but as a veteran, Zhu Zhendong knows that it is best not to violate military law.

In order to relieve the tension, he began to habitually calculate the distance of the enemy army.

About two hundred steps.

After another hundred steps, the Tang army will release arrows.

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

Zhu Zhendong silently counted the numbers in his heart.

By the time he counted to one, the Goguryeo cavalry had already rushed to the front, only a hundred paces away.

The trumpet sounded.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Zhu Zhendong felt that his blood was boiling, and he pulled the bowstring violently, and did not aim at the enemy.

The first arrow, the enemy is still far away, and the standard practice of the Tang army is to throw it.

Pulling the bowstring like the sea and the moon, the bow and arrow are pointed diagonally at the sky, which is a very familiar angle.

"Put!"

Zhu Zhendong let go of the bowstring and felt the arrows roar towards the sky with great force.

The sound of bowstrings, arrows breaking through the air, and the shouts of the archers.

A field of bows and arrows is like a flying locust.

Shooting the first arrow, Zhu Zhendong didn't have time to wait for the result, and immediately pulled the bow again.

Regardless of it, shoot three arrows in a row.

'Shield!'

There was another shout.

Zhu Zhendong directly threw down the bow in his hand, lifted the long shield and stood in front of him, and clenched a musket in his other hand.

After doing this, he had time to see the results he had just done.

The bows and arrows of the Tang army were thrown, killing and wounding at least hundreds of enemy horsemen. He sighed in his heart, but unfortunately there were still too few government soldiers, there were more than 2,000 people in the row in front of them, but the old government soldiers were only a few hundred.

The eight phalanxes numbered 1,600 people, but they were all white-robed soldiers without bows and arrows. In the triple shot just now, they just stood there and watched the excitement.

If those 1,600 people were old government soldiers, and they were all equipped with bows and crossbows, this round of bows and arrows just now would have killed and injured at least two or three hundred more enemies.

Zhu Zhendong glanced at the fire rope on his left hand, because he was afraid that the fire rope would be extinguished during the battle, in order to be on the safe side, Zhu Zhendong, like other soldiers, lit both ends of the fire rope, so as to be in case. However, there are two fire heads on the body, which is also dangerous.

After all, he still had ten gunpowder cartridges and ten grenades on his back, and if he accidentally lit it, he would definitely be blown up and killed.

On the spear, a powder cartridge has been strapped.

When many soldiers heard about the Yanshan-style three-eyed firecracker, they were greatly inspired and tied three gunpowder cartridges to their spears.

Although this is not required above, as doing so may be wasteful or even affect the use of the spear. After all, at present, the enemy army is able to light the powder cartridge three times in a row, and the chances of shooting the opposite side three times are not very good.

And three powder cartridges are tied under the head of the gun, so it is difficult for this spear to play the role of assassination.

Still, many soldiers did so.

Zhu Zhendong also tied three gunpowder cartridges to the head of the gun.

"Taishang Laojun, Nanhai Guanyin bless me!" Zhu Zhendong said something in his mouth, and put the fire rope on the lead of a gunpowder cylinder.

The enemy cavalry has arrived in front of them.

It was a vicious bearded cavalryman, riding a black horse and carrying a spear in his hand, and rushed at a rapid pace.

Zhu Zhendong recited the gods and Buddhas in the sky, begging them to bless him, and while standing behind the shield, he stabbed the spear out violently.

One of the three gunpowder bamboo barrels tied under the head of the gun was already lit, and the fuse was burning, smoking, and carrying gunpowder.

The warrior on the horse clamped his spear under his armpit, ready to take advantage of the high speed of the war horse to stab the Han man to death.

Getting closer.

The spearhead and the spearhead are close.

The warrior was confident that his spear would plunge into the Han man's chest, and that he would be able to dodge the spear easily.

It's just that why is that spear smoking, as if there are still sparks?

Didn't wait for him to figure it out.

At that moment, the spear, which was still smoking, suddenly erupted into a burst of flames.

The fireworks are orange-red.

It seemed pretty good, and a strange thought arose from the sorcerer warrior.

Then, he couldn't dodge.

The flames erupted suddenly, as if the spear had suddenly erupted.

He could have avoided the head of the gun and stabbed the Han man to death. But he didn't expect this firework.

He felt his eyes tingling, his face burning, and he couldn't see anything.

"Ahh He let out a terrible cry.

The mounted mounted was also astonished and stood up.

The spear thrust, which was originally extremely ferocious, had no follow-up.

Zhu Zhendong didn't expect that this musket spray would have such a good effect, and he was overjoyed, but his hands were not idle, he held the gun with both hands and shouted.

"Kill!"

The spear, which was still tied to three powder cartridges, stabbed into the chest of the sageless warrior who was screaming with his hands over his face.

"The first one!"

Retracting the bloody spear, Zhu Zhendong shouted excitedly in his heart.
