Chapter 161: Repair My Spear
Combat is not a private fight in the market, but a collective force.
First of all, it was necessary to command with golden drums and flags, which were to make the actions of the whole army uniform. The officers must clearly tell the soldiers how they should practice, and they must repeatedly state and explain clearly, train them to act according to the signals of the various golden drum banners, and those who violate the orders will be severely punished according to the seventeen prohibitions!
The way of war, such as morality, set up soldiers, set ranks, is vertical and horizontal, and check the name and truth; Teaching the law of war, compared with the township, Shiwu protects each other. These two points, everyone no longer needs to train, and half a year of Keju confrontation has already kneaded each two into a whole. The two horses could call out the name of each soldier to whom they belonged, as well as their temperament, timid or bold, impulsive or slow.
After everything was ready, on the threshing floor, Zhao Wuxian personally beat the drum with a mallet.
Knock knock!
As soon as the drum sounded, the soldiers sorted out their weapons, spears, swords and shields in their hands, and bows and arrows under their shoulders; The second drum sounded, the formation was practiced, and everyone quickly formed a horizontal formation against the enemy in two formations; Three drums sounded, ready to go, the front row turned into the rear row, and quickly transformed into a long marching formation.
Then Zhao Wuxian's side held the flag of the sheep tongue Rong raised the flag, the flag to the east is to the east, to the west is to the west, the flag is sitting, and the flag is raised. The loud sound of Mingjin represents retreat, and it is necessary to keep the queue neat when the formation is dispersed.
The first of the seventeen prohibitions: Smell the drum and don't enter, smell the gold and don't stop, the flag can't be raised, the flag can't be pressed, Zhao Wuxian set three different levels of lightness.
If you take the wrong step or turn in the wrong direction because you can't remember, it is naturally a relatively light punishment and cane punishment.
And those who refuse to change after repeated teachings and deliberately disrupt the order of the queue can be pulled down and killed, fortunately. In Zhao Wuxian's army, there is no such soldier.
Qi Taigong once said that he taught the law of war. that one man may learn to fight, and teach ten to be one. Ten people learn to fight, and teach hundreds, thousands, and ten thousand people. Gradually to the crowd of the three armies.
Therefore, although there are only more than 200 soldiers in front of him, in the future, he may be able to teach an army of 20,000!
In addition, it is necessary to practice operating weapons and become familiar with combat skills.
In the Spring and Autumn Period of the Western Zhou Dynasty, when the army went out to fight, all armor, bows and arrows, and spears were largely prepared and sharpened by the soldiers.
As the first generation of Luhou Bo said when he conquered Huaiyi: "Bei is a bow and arrow." Forging a spear, sharpening a blade, no dare to be good! ”
With the weapons looted from the lower palace, the wooden spears and sticks that the soldiers had brought from their respective homes to make up the numbers were completely eliminated, and in this era, it was already very good to be able to do this. In that year, the Marshal of Jin Wen and the third army of Jin went south, and fought a decisive battle with the Chu division in Chengpu, and because of the lack of weapons, he "cut down its wood to benefit its soldiers" in the hill of the Xin family.
And Zhao Wuxian also asked for different lengths. Weapons of different quality must also be replaced, to this extent, Zhao Wuxian's group of villagers are armed. has surpassed eighty percent of the army of the same era, and his first armed force, of course, must be an elite army!
In the art of war, it is also said: "Teach the order of war, the short man holds the spear, the long and strong man holds the bow and arrow, the loyal man is the tiger, the weak man carries the baggage, and the wise man is the master." ”
The main part of the two hundred men were full of apprentices. They stood in four rows, each with two or two twenty-five people.
Skirmishes in front. The long soldiers were behind, and the first and second rows were eight feet long. You can swing it up and down, left and right, and slash and peck at the enemy who is adventurous, but Wuxian thinks that it is better to change it to a halberd in the future, so that the function is more than an assassination. The last two rows are one-zhang spears, which can be flattened and stabbed intensively to prevent the enemy from approaching, and the four rows of unarmed soldiers must also swap positions before and after according to the different situations they are facing.
As a shirtless car right, Yang Tongue Rong is not only excellent in swordsmanship, but also has a lot of experience in the use of long soldiers. He is also the commander of the pawn, so these 100 people, without shirts, are safely handed over to him for training.
These people may not be known for their bravery, and they may even be physically weak compared to several other arms, but they exert the strength of the collective, and they are the backbone of the front row!
Now, with the continuous supply of the lower palace, the armor rate among these 100 people has reached 100%. Each of them can wear a leather armor, but no armor. Zhao Wuxian remembered the Qin army he saw when he visited the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in later generations, so he asked the colorsmith to dye the leather armor in a uniform crimson color, and the soldiers' hairstyles should be tied into the same bun, and the roots were tied with soap-colored ribbons.
At first, Yang Yurong and Wang Sun Qi couldn't figure out what it was for, but when the hundred apprentices, who were dressed almost identically, listened to the golden drum and moved in unison with the banner, they understood the reason.
When the soldiers of the entire phalanx slowly flattened the spears and simulated a rush to kill, it seemed that it was already the prototype of a strong army, and it was like a forest!
……
Wang Sun period in the lower palace is the post of chariot, and it is also a compassionate royal army, good at chariot warfare, but the cultivation and maintenance of chariots is more troublesome than cavalry, and Chengxiang can only maintain two or three cars now. Wuxian's positioning of it is only as a command vehicle and archery platform, so Wang Sunqi has no place to use it, so he can only turn to training archers.
The original two-pawn establishment of Chengxiang was reduced to one pawn by Wuxian, and the remaining two did not govern each other, but were independently responsible to Zhao Wuxian.
Among them, there are one or two "scholars", that is, archers.
The twenty-five men were slender, almost all of them taller than seven feet. They were the best people selected from the township archery salute, and most of their original occupations were hunters in various leagues, and they came to enlist in the army one after another under the temptation of Zhao Wuxian's annual military salary of fifty stone corn per person, good performance, and wheat flour subsidies.
After receiving the first month's salary and letting the family eat white flour and water cakes, the scholars secretly said: "This is much more cost-effective than hunting and skinning!" ”
In order to facilitate the flexible opening of the bow, they have no armor or armor, only wear cloth clothes, and their hair is also combed into a bun. He usually holds a horned bow and scatters arrows at the shooting range of Cheng's manor, which was originally the private property of Cheng Wu, who was the patriarch, but he ran to Wuxian and claimed that he was willing to give it for free and belong to the village temple.
Zhao Wuxian knew his thoughts, so he naturally smiled.
At this time, Wang Sunqi kept a straight face and instructed the soldiers on the shooting range to correct their posture.
He said eloquently: "The archer can kill people a hundred steps away, but the enemy is only six or seven shots, and the material must measure the strength of his bow, cooperate with his body movements, and adjust his breath, so that he can be single-minded, and every shot must be hit!" ”
No matter how good the archery skills are, if the target is placed in the array, if the target changes from a beast to a living person. And those people are still holding spears, and they can rush in front of you after a few breaths, whether it is mentality or scattering methods, it is another matter entirely. (To be continued)
