Chapter 712: The Phalanx (Page 1/1)

With Gao Yu's order, the pikemen in the front row shouted in unison, and the spear in his hand made a move "oolong out of the water", like a comb, and it was a stab.

"Hey, it's really powerful", Yang Wen hurriedly grabbed the war horse, turned the horse's head and ran back a few steps, after making sure that he was out of the attack range of the spear, he looked back carefully, and saw that the Tang army who had previously shot the spear had already taken the spear back under Gao Yu's command.

"There is nothing surprising about this formation, as long as it is the first row of guns, I can kill it by myself without even needing a single soldier!" Yang Wen looked at it carefully, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, and his eyes gradually lit up, "It's just how to get these thieves to shoot obediently?" Yang Wen frowned and thought about it, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the soldier who had already rushed to his side, and finally nodded secretly.

"Brothers, go with Ben!" Yang Wen raised the green reed spear, clamped the horse's belly, and rushed out first.

Yang Wen made such a move, and Song Bing instinctively followed, but he didn't know Yang Wen's plan, but in fact, he used their lives to lure Tang Jun to make a move, so that he could find a way out.

"Yo, here it is again?" After the first shot forced Yang Wen back, Gao Yu found a wheat stalk from nowhere, and held it in his mouth quite leisurely, when he saw Yang Wen leading the Song army to pounce again, he couldn't help but shake his head, and instinctively raised his hand and was about to give an order, but he found that Yang Wen's horse speed was slowing down, and many Song soldiers had already rushed in front of him.

Gao Yu had been with these spearmen for some days, and when he saw Yang Wen acting like this, he understood his plan after thinking about it slightly, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, "Hmph! Song Jun is really shameless, he is such a dirty villain from top to small, but you think that such means will be useful! Spit out the straw in his mouth, raised the silver gun, and shouted loudly, "Three stacks of spears, ready!" Stab! ”

"Drink!" When the sergeants in the first three rows heard his command, the spears in their hands slammed heavily on the ground, and they shouted in unison, and then they met the rushing Song army, divided into three ways, upper, middle and lower, and stabbed forward in unison.

The dazzling edge light flashed, the blood light burst out, and the Song soldiers who rushed in front were strung on top of a spear like a piece of meat, and a large amount of blood foam spurted out of their mouths one by one, and they didn't even leave a last word or even a scene, and left this world in a hurry.

Yang Wen, who followed the Song soldiers, was overjoyed in his heart after seeing the movements of the Tang army in the first row, "With such a simple formation, I dare to bring it to the general, don't you think that the descendants of my Yang family are like those wine bags and rice bags!" Tightened the green reed gun in his hand, ready to use the corpse of the Song soldier in front of him to charge the battle alone.

Yang Wen thought well, but what he didn't know was that the gun array in front of him now was the famous "Macedonian phalanx" in history, although this phalanx was not perfect, and it also had one or another flaw, but after the improvement of Li Junchen and many leading generals of the Tang Army, in a specific environment, it was an unsolvable equation.

The Macedonian phalanx was created by Alexander the Great, the famous Macedonian king in history, the head of the greatest four military commanders in European history, the entire phalanx is composed of spearmen, each row is a thousand people, the spearmen of the first row hold a spear of one and a half zhang, and the spear in the hands of the second row of spearmen is half a zhang longer than the first row, increased to two zhang, used to make up the distance between the soldiers in the front row, after the spear is pierced, it is convenient for the spear tips of the soldiers in the front row to be juxtaposed up and down.

The spears in the hands of the soldiers in the third row were half a zhang longer than those in the second row, reaching two and a half zhang, and after the spears were pierced, the tips of the spears were also the same as those of the soldiers in the first two rows.

The spears of the fourth row were half a zhang longer than those of the third row, and the spears of the fifth row were half a zhang longer than those of the fourth, reaching an astonishing three and a half zhang, and the length of the spears would have reached an astonishing ten meters according to the measurement method of later generations!

Five thousand spears pierced out at the same time, arranged in a neat phalanx from top to bottom, and the cold and shining spear heads were densely packed, like the spikes on the hedgehog's body that exploded one by one, and like a copper wall and iron wall, so that people could not find a single flaw at all.

Of course, there is no perfect phalanx in this world, even if it is as strong as the Macedonian phalanx, although his frontal attack power is superior, but his flanks and backs are its flaws, if someone can attack from the side or back, then it will definitely receive amazing results.

But in today's small environment, there are tents on fire on the left and right, and there is no trace of Song soldiers behind, such an environment is the place where the maximum combat power of the phalanx can be fully exerted.

Of course, Li Junchen will not copy the entire Macedonian phalanx bluntly, after all, the Tang Army has the reality of the Tang Army, but the phalanx modified by him and the generals of the Tang Army is more in line with the reality of the Tang Army, and the power is also more amazing.

Yang Wen watched Tang Jun's spear penetrate the body of the Song soldier in front of him, and when the green reed spear in his hand was about to be withdrawn, five or six bright lights suddenly flashed in front of him, attacking his front door and chest respectively.

Yang Wen never dreamed that such a thing would happen, and his mind couldn't help but "buzz", it was completely blank, and he didn't know how to do it at all, seeing that the inertia of the horse was about to take him to hit the tip of the spear, a strong force of horizontal collision knocked him off the horse.

Yang Wen fell heavily to the ground, as if he had just woken up from a big dream, and when he raised his eyes, the benefactor who hit himself and saved his life was a captain in the Song army, and he had already hung on the tip of the Tang army's gun for him at this moment.

Yang Wen's eyes were red, he could be cold-blooded, he could let his subordinates go up to death for victory, but he couldn't sit back and watch the people who saved him die tragically in front of his eyes no matter what, and he didn't care about his war horse and green reed gun at the moment, so he crawled back to the Song army's assembly place with his hands and feet, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, the splitter snatched a bow and arrow, and released an arrow in the direction of the Tang army.

Although his arrow was sent out with anger, if it was in the past, he would definitely be able to take the life of a Tang soldier, but today, he saw the spears in the hands of two Tang soldiers according to the arrow, which was to shoot down the arrow.

"Damn!" When Yang Wen saw it, his eyes were about to erupt with fire, he turned his head suddenly, pointed in the direction of the Tang army, and roared loudly at the Song soldiers behind him, "Those who have bows and arrows in their hands will shoot fiercely at those anti-thieves, and they must shoot all those anti-thieves to death, shoot to death, shoot to death!" ”

When Song Bing saw Yang Wen looking like he was about to eat people, he couldn't help but tremble, and he hurriedly pulled out the bow in his hand according to Yang Wen's instructions and put arrows towards the Tang army's phalanx.

Looking at the sparse arrows flying from the opposite side, Gao Yu couldn't help but shake his head, "What is this, is it provocative?" Don't you know that arrows are useless in this formation? He spat at the ground, "All of them, guns, thorns!" ”
