After tasting the steps and riding out of the formation, he came slowly, and saw the smoke outside the Han Dynasty and the Qing soldiers cutting the union. ”

With the horn of the Chinese army, the three types of squares on the field quickly closed, and then slowly stretched to the four sides, and finally turned into a large array with an inner space and an outer circle. This big array. It is one of the top ten formations in ancient China, and it is the most conducive to defense in the wilderness.

Wang Dou's headquarters is located outside Dongjiazhuang Fort, flat on all sides, there is no place to rely on for defense, Wang Dou and others hurriedly came to help, and did not bring anything to refuse horses and other things. In this field, there is no distinction between front and back, left and right, and the highly loose Qing soldiers and cavalry can choose to attack from any part of the world at will.

As long as they want to, as long as they find the opportunity. Flank. Rear. It's going to be theirs

Sign.

Wang Dou had no cavalry, so he could not protect his wings and rear, and he was reluctant to take it out and fight with the Qing soldiers if he didn't collect it for less than forty nights. In the absence of sufficient cavalry, it became inevitable that the field would be defended on all sides. And laying out a circle array is the most suitable.

In the field, the phalanx is an offensive formation, while the circle formation is more economical and conducive to defense, and as long as the battle situation is effective, the circle formation only needs to be slightly expanded. It can also become an offensive phalanx.

Wang Dou was ready to defend to the death first, and after the Qing soldiers were greatly defeated, he would turn defense into offense, and give those Qing soldiers a little color.

It is attributed to the harsh practice of Shunxiang Fort in ordinary times. The Shunxiang army was orderly when it changed formations, without the slightest noise and confusion in the ranks.

With the order of the drum and the trumpet, when the Qing soldiers were still more than 200 paces away, the military headquarters of the right outpost of the Han Dynasty completed the formation first, and most of them formed in front of the circle formation, and the sergeants waved according to the flag of the sentry team. When the drums are sounded for the third time, everyone is standing in their own position, and the fire system, swords, guns, and guns are all in their own battle positions! Hundreds of officers and men suddenly shouted in unison: "Protect, protect, protect" The sound was deafening, and they shouted three times in a row before standing still.

Han Zhong's left sentinel was on the left side of the circle. The sergeants were separated by steps, each taking their own position, and after they were placed alone, the fire commander gun card was all in battle position, and sang "suddenly, suddenly, suddenly" three times in unison, and also stood still. After they enter the formation, they can also discard the mirror and draw their knives and use them as reserves.

The same is true of the three platoons of fire commanders at the front.

The fire soldiers and pikemen in this area all obey the command of Lei Xianbin, the captain of the right sentry team, and Lei Xianbin. He also obeyed the orders and commands of the military headquarters.

Behind the spear and shield men, there was a battle queue composed of the right sentry B and the spearmen of the third team, who were in two rows in a team of four, and none of them held shields. There were 70 officers and flag bearers in two teams. The pikemen of the right sentry C were the last in line, and in addition to preparing for the battle, they also had the consideration of being used as a reserve, which depended on how the battle unfolded.

In ancient times, troops were arranged. This soldier and soldier should not be too close to each other, and between the ranks and columns. It is necessary to leave a certain distance between various weapons and the formation to change. Each Shunxiang Fort sergeant occupies an area of about one step or so. In this way, the three infantry teams of the right post of the ROK and the DPRK formed a small phalanx more than 20 meters long and lined up with nine rows of sergeants.

Look at the Han Zhong Department on the left side of the circle formation and the Sun Sanjie Department on the right, they are also arranged in the same way, but their queue is slightly fox-shaped, not as square as the Han Dynasty Department.

In the right outpost of Han Dynasty, there are four teams A, B, C, and D, in addition to the three teams A, B, and C are arranged here, there is also Team D, which is transferred to the back of the circle formation, and then transferred, there is also Team A of Han Zhong's left outpost and Team B of Sun Sanjie's rear outpost.

The Qing troops attacked in the middle, the two wings and the rear assault of the battle scarf, Sichuan Erzhou was their cavalry in the year, and none of the parties were Ancang, and the strength of the troops was also conducive to dealing with their offensive.

There were two hundred and forty-nine sentries in Shunxiang Fort, and a team of sergeants from each sentry, together with the captain and the first captain. And the flag-bearers and drummers of the guards are counted. There were sixty of them. Among them, there were fifty soldiers and sergeants. Spearmen and pikemen split half.

After yesterday's battle, Han Zhong's troops and Sun Sanjie's troops were both dissatisfied members, and Han Zhong's left outpost suffered forty-nine casualties, of which the left sentry A suffered more serious casualties, and there were only two hundred people left in his sentry at this time. Sun Sanjie's outpost suffered 25 casualties, of which Team B of the outpost also suffered serious casualties, and there were only 224 people left in his outpost at this time.

In order to maintain the combat strength of the two flanks, the left and rear outposts could only draw away the infantry with the most serious casualties in their own outposts and arrange them behind the circle formation. It depends on whose hand the deer dies.

Seeing that the soldiers were still far away, he shouted, "Sit down in formation." ”

There was an immediate uproar. The sound of the collision of the armor leaves, in the circle array, except for Wang Dou and the flag-bearers of the various sentry officers standing, the rest of the people are sitting on the ground, which can raise the vision of the officers. Moreover, the heavy armor of the sergeants can also allow them to save some physical strength and accumulate strength for the upcoming battle.

The sun is shining on the dry land, and the minutes and seconds pass. Slowly, the Qing soldiers in the dust got closer, and finally they entered the circle more than a hundred paces away.

Wang Dou saw very clearly that there were about 200 Qing soldiers in the first wave, and they were in the position of sharp knives. It was the dozens of dead soldiers in the vests who were in the lead, all of them wearing heavy armor and holding heavy shields in their hands, led by a few of them who were divided into the Shku and the Gunda.

Behind them, to the right and left, followed by dozens of lightly armoured archers. Led by some infantry Pashku. Then there was a group of black-pressed soldiers with swords in their hands, with or without armor, and in the crowd, some of them wore high red tassels and had flaming pole flags on their backs, and they looked like white baya soldiers. Wang Dou also saw that in this wave of Qing soldiers, there was an official banner of Niu Lu Zhangjing.

Wang Dou could already judge that the main target of this wave of Qing soldiers was the position directly in front of his circle. In addition to this, there were two waves of smoke and dust that also rolled in, one for infantry and one for cavalry, and it is not known which direction they attacked the circle.

Wang Dou's eyes were fixed on the Qing soldiers opposite. He estimated the distance, after the Qing soldiers had entered a hundred paces. He ordered the fire soldiers in the square of the circle to stand up.

The flag of the flag bearer beside him was raised, and Lei Xianbin, the officer of the right sentry team who was staring at his banner, immediately shouted: "The fire commander stands up." ”

There was a commotion, and the three rows of forty-five fire commanders at the front of the circle array, as well as the thirty fire soldiers on both sides of the circle stood up one after another, and no one patted the dust on their buttocks, but they all locked the fire and held their hands.

"Fire preparation."

The sound of lighting the fire rope or finishing the fire system sounded, and the fixed carton ammunition in each person's system had already been filled (). They originally stood in three rows, and after each person lit the fire rope, the front row of fire commanders immediately crouched, and the last two rows were still standing, each still holding the fire sharps in their hands.

Seeing that the Qing soldiers in front of them had quickened their pace, their voices were heard more and more clearly, Lei Xianbin estimated the distance and shouted, "Prepare to shoot." ”

Immediately, there was a roar of fire moving. The front and rear rows of fire mirror soldiers were all aimed at the Qing soldiers rushing ahead, and they each found their own target according to the crosshair on the fire system. The sun was shining down, and the faces of the various fire commanders were red. But they all pursed their lips and just focused on aiming.

The Qing soldiers soon entered eighty paces, and with a shout, they began to add, screaming and rushing up.

Seeing them rushing over with black pressure, Lei Xianbin's palms were full of sweat, and his right hand couldn't help but be pressed. One voice said: "Steady, steady!" ”

In addition to the shouts of the Qing soldiers and the voice of Lei Xianbin, the Shunxiang army on the side of the entire circle formation was still silent at this time, except for the standing fire commanders, the remaining sergeants were still sitting quietly in the sun. It's just that many people's heads can't help but look at the side where the Qing soldiers are rushing.

From the side of the Qing soldiers, the Ming army formed a circle formation, and there were some fire commanders in front, but their side was eerily quiet. Entering seventy paces, their fire scopes did not fire. At sixty paces, there was still no shooting.

Looking at the black-pressed Huotong Cave over there, many of the Qing soldiers who were rushing into battle were shocked.
