Qi Wan's head was numb.

Only when you get to the real battlefield do you know that there are really any sounds here, screaming, crying dad and shouting mother, blades rubbing, shields colliding......

"Puff puff", this is the sound of arrows shooting into the leather armor, the small force can only break it, and the strong force can penetrate the flesh and skin, and the pain of the heart.

Qi Wan also took a few hits, but he couldn't care about it so much, after the other party had a huge gap, the pawn chief Mu Xia shouted and rushed over first, Qi Wan and the others only knew that they were bored and followed the pawn chief!

He had heard the commander say that the brigade commander's definition of the spearmen was "battlefield steamrollers", although he had never heard of the term, but the general meaning was nothing more than forming a dense horizontal formation to push and advance.

And the positioning of the sword and shield hand is the sword that pierces the weak part of the opponent, they form a dense column, five columns and ten rows, the front row is dead and the back row is on top, the meaning of their existence on the battlefield is to engage with the enemy in short arms, concentrate forces to break through a little!

The deep sword and shield hands were like hot blades that cut through the ointment, and they easily broke through the thin two columns of Qi Ren armor soldiers, rushed into the center of the array, and turned the Qi people on the verge of collapse upside down.

As in training, the sword and shield men fought in their own hands for the most part, not as demanding uniformity as the spearmen. Although Qi Wan's mind was numb, his movements were not affected. Deftly dodged under the arm of a tall spear-wielding foe, then stooped down, raised his shield and slammed him in the leg, then stabbed his sword diagonally upwards, into the groin, into the ribs, or through the chest to the point.

The slaughter is going on, and if the sword and shield bearers find that some of the enemy is protecting these parts of their body, they will cut the tendons in the knee or ankle of the enemy, knocking them to the ground, just as they did in training. Then the roar pierces their shields, causing the enemy to let out a terrible scream like the scream of a wild beast before dying.

The two wings of the battle line were caught in a melee after the sword and shield men rushed in, and as for the central position, the situation was different.

After strengthening the wings. Zhao Wuxian and the four rows of twenty-five Lego spearmen in front of him faced Qi people, who were as many as five times larger in number and more tightly formed, and there were ten chariots that took the lead in galloping. Want to scare them away!

After the Wuya Brigade gave the order to concentrate its forces to attack the enemy's center, Sima of Xiaqiuyi took the order and drove away in person, and ten heavy chariots flew around and began to rush towards the enemy's weak center!

However, what he didn't expect was this. After noticing the movement of the chariot, the spearmen in the center of the warriors gradually slowed down, and stopped abruptly when the distance between the two sides was forty paces, leaving only the left and right flanks to continue to penetrate.

Yi Sima on the chariot thought that the other party was afraid, and under great joy, he whipped and accelerated the charge.

But the Uya Brigade, which is located in the rear and can see the whole situation, is terrified, is this intentional or is the command left and right ineffective, what are they going to do?

"Second and third sons, set up a spear!"

The Uya Brigade didn't have time to think about it, but they heard the armored commander on the other side shouting. Then the back row of the spearmen filled in the two or three gaps caused by the death and wounding of the arrows. They fell on one knee, their left leg stretched forward, their shields resting on their shoulders, their spears heavily planted on the ground, the tips pointed diagonally forward, and the left flank and the central line were like a protective thorn fence.

Ten wagons rolled up smoke and dust and rushed to the spear array, and the galloping horses looked at the sharp spear tips in horror, and instinctively stopped their tracks. Because of inertia, a royal man and a Rong Zuo screamed and were thrown out, and the two of them were directly inserted into the spear facing upwards and penetrated their bodies. The death was miserable.

The horses were reluctant to go, and they did not move even if they were whipped by the whip, and the ten wagons were so awkwardly stopped in the middle of the two armies, in a dilemma.

The Qi array in the center had to bypass the ten chariots that stood in the way. Their neat formation also dispersed.

By the time they rushed to the soldiers, they had already withdrawn their spears and formed a dense formation like the spearmen on the left and right wings: the soldiers were close to each other, their shields close to their shields, and they held high the chariot protecting the brigade commander behind them, and the arrows made a clattering sound when they were nailed to them. Nor can they move half a step.

This immobile posture blocked the first impact of the Qi Ren armor warrior, and the shield and shield collided together, and the spears pierced into the opponent's formation. The plasma that began to thicken on the front was stirred, people kept falling, and the soldiers kept attrition, but miraculously they did not collapse, just because their brigade commanders, their gentlemen were still standing in the rear!

But it was only a matter of time before 500 people crushed this little soldier in front of them, and they might pay some casualties, but the final victory belonged to the Qi people.

"Rush and kill!" Uya's brigade was overjoyed, but when he turned his head, he realized that his left and right flanks were collapsing. With 500 men on each flank, it was incredible how quickly an enemy could be defeated by twice as many people.

The people standing on the wall of Zhenyi could look at the entire battlefield, and they could see the whole process clearly: the large shield armorers lined up in two rows were subjected to three salvos of crossbow arrows, and they were pushed by the Ge spear phalanx in depth in five columns, and then the high-speed attack of the sword and shield men in the depth of 10 columns had been completely destroyed.

Behind the Qi warriors were the unarmoured and shieldless apprentices and archers, who were thrown into disarray after the sword and shield men rushed in, and the crossbowmen outflanked and moved, and the crossbowmen fired crossbows in batches, and the light cavalry diamond formation on the right flank swept behind them.

Under the attack from all sides, the queue of the Qi people was completely disrupted, and unsurprisingly, the left flank of the Qi people was the first to collapse, the front fell to the ground and died, and the hundreds of people behind blew up the nest. The right flank followed, and they fled lifelessly towards the way they came, and even with the commander of the other side, the Wuya Brigade of the Doctor of Diaoqiu was forced to drive the chariot to evacuate, and it was too late to support the banner when it fell.

"Defeated, defeated!" All Qi people were shouting in despair.

Whether what happened next was planned or spontaneous, the people on the wall did not know, but the soldiers on both flanks gave up the pursuit of the enemy army, and instead began to turn diagonally, and at the same time flanked the flanks and rear of the Qi people who were attacking the weak central position of the soldiers.

When the two wings of the warriors were united into one, and the battle was also coming to an end, Zhao Wuxian, under the protection of Tian Ben's shield, watched unscathed as hundreds of Qi people surrendered on their knees surrounded by various weapons approaching by the group.

The warriors won, and they won the final victory of this "Battle of Zhen".

From the moment the two sides met from afar, the battle lasted only two moments before it ended.

The pursuit was carried out by sword and shield men and light knights, and a hundred people ran with seven or eight hundred people, and the Wuya brigade, which fled with Qi people, felt that it was in a nest, but it had long lost the courage to gather the remnants of the army and turn around and counterattack.

He was suddenly very curious in his heart, the young brigade commander who was much younger than himself on the other side. How did you train such a strong army, it is simply the reincarnation of Sima Sui Tho!

The remaining 400 or so people in the center of the Qi people were all taken prisoner, and they were escorted by spearmen and crossbowmen to stand outside the walls of Zhenyi, waiting in line for Zhao Wuxian's inspection.

This is also a deterrent to the patriots at both ends of Zhenyi.

Zhen Yi did not move any abnormally under the deterrence of Zhang Mengtan and his troops. The patriarchs and elders of the Zhen clan who witnessed the entire battle turned pale with fright, and the smell of blood that was several miles away was blown by the wind, causing many of them to vomit all over the place.

When Zhao Wuxian held on to the carriage rail, dragging the banner discarded by the Qi people and re-entered Zhenyi, Zhen Zhongxun and the clans, merchants, and guards in the Yi were all prostrate on the ground by the door! Knee-line congratulations to shirtless.

"The brigade commander defeated the Qi Kou invasion. Keep the peace of my Chengyi clan, and the people of the whole city are here! ”

Unlike the speculator image that could not be convincing a few days ago, Zao Wuser has truly conquered this city today!

Zhang Mengtan also led everyone to greet the returning Zhao Wuxian, and after reporting the situation in the city, Cheng Xuan, who didn't know much about combat, asked such a question:

"There are many people, but I am few; How long do Qi people fight veterans, and I recruit more recruits; The Qi people are above the territory of the allies, and I am in the territory of the enemy, and the people are not close to each other, and they are walking on thin ice. Although the enemy is expected to be the first. But the advantage was not great when it was about to fight, so how could Zitai easily defeat three times the enemy? ”

Just now, Zhao Wuxian faced the approach of the Qi Chinese army, which was five times his size, and let the arrow hit his bronze clinker and did not retreat, but now that he thought about it, he still broke out in a cold sweat.

Any war is a gamble with his life, and now when he hears Cheng Yan ask, there are many reasons in his heart.

In the Central Plains, the Bank of China Muzi and Wei Xianzi, as well as Sima Sui Tho, invented the infantry dense phalanx almost simultaneously, making the battle a collective battle. Sun Wu in the south brought this method to the extreme of the times.

The infantry that is united is no longer scattered and disorderly individuals, but a collective battle that cooperates and supports each other. Such a phalanx was valuable in the Battle of Ohara and the Battle of Baiju. The same number, even the inferior Jin and Wu armies, were proved to be more powerful than the Rong and Chu armies, which fought in a casual manner, under the organization of dense phalanxes.

This stifles the individuality of the soldiers. The reform of emphasizing coordinated operations is a great military progress, and a dense phalanx with the same number of soldiers in close contact will inevitably defeat the scattered and chaotic soldiers.

Ten days ago, Zhao Wuxian looked back on the ancient battlefield of Chengpu, and he had an idea and learned the tactics of Xianzhen. He turned the originally evenly divided left, center and right three formations into a weakened center. Strengthen the phalanx on both flanks, especially on the right flank, so as to try to attract the enemy's main force in the center, and the two flanks complete the first breakthrough, thus defeating the enemy in one fell swoop!

In the final analysis, in today's battle, they are better than the use of tactics, which is what people call "battle situation" at the time.

The reason why the turbulent water can float the boulder is because of the potential energy that makes it produce a huge impact; The raptor fights the bird, and the opponent can be killed in one fell swoop, because it has mastered the position of time and space that is most conducive to the explosion of impact, and the rhythm is fast.

It is precisely because of the use of tactics in war that war has become an art, so that the number of troops and the strength of equipment are no longer the only conditions that determine the outcome of a war. The outcome of the war will be determined by both spiritual and material forces.

As a freshly baked commander, Zhao Wuxian's thoughts were only clear after experiencing actual combat, and they still need to be summarized to make them clear. Therefore, his answer to Cheng Xuan's words is a bit simple:

"This victory is due to the situation of the war, in the final analysis, it is just a combination of right and odd wins."

……

In the far south, in the martial arts arena outside the city of Gusu, the fierce Wu State phalanx was practicing the way of battle formation outside the house, their roar shook the sky, and the sword and shield struck loudly.

In the dry-bar building near the water, a middle-aged man of medium stature and plain-looking appearance was sitting on the top, he was wearing a crane crown, a coarse cloth coat, strong arms, and two iron palms were full of calluses, and it could be seen that he was an old pawn who had been dancing swords and bows for a long time.

This "old military official" who is not good-looking, but at this time he is giving a lesson to the children of the Wu people who are kneeling on the ground in front of him, his eyes are sharp, he has a horn-shaped mustache on his lips, his lips are thin, and he speaks Wu with a Qi accent.

"Today, we talk about the battle situation, the battle situation is just odd positive, with the right combination, with the odd victory, the change of the odd is invincible. Prince, do you understand? ”

In the front row of the next seat was a handsome young man with the typical short hair of the Wu people, his eyes were full of wildness and pride, the bridge of his nose was straight, his lips had a sagittal beard, and he was wearing short rhino skin armor painted black. As he bowed heavily to the commander, the young man revealed the blue-black dragon tattoo on his arm.

"What the grandson said, the husband knows!"
