Chapter 177 The army is mighty

"Wen Ze, you order 3,000 soldiers and horses, and together with Wuji, be Ziyi's deputy general, and go to Qingzhou to relieve the siege." Wang Yu didn't just say it, and after getting Tai Shici's answer, he immediately made arrangements.

“…… Here. Yu Ban and Fang Yue hesitated, but in the end they didn't question it. They don't understand the reason why Wang Yu did this, but judging from past experience, Wang Yu should not joke about major events in the army.

"Ziyi, do you still need to prepare?" Wang Yu turned to Tai Shici, who had not yet fully woken up from the shock, and looked at Wang Yu in a daze, and it took a long time before he woke up like a dream, "No need, you can go on the road here." ”

"Very good." Wang Yu waved his hand and asked the three generals to leave on their own and prepare to send troops.

Tai Shi Ci followed Yu Ban in a daze, and the house fell silent, and after a while, Xu Huang slowly spoke: "Lord, do you like this person's bravery?" However, with such a method...... Isn't it a little too risky? ”

"It's not a risk." Wang Yu smiled indifferently and said: "If you have a text to follow, what kind of mess can he make?" Anyway, a certain was originally going to send troops to rescue, but now it's just a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”

"The lord is talking about ......"

Xu Huang nodded, but the suspicion between his eyebrows still did not disappear: "This person is quite unruly, Huang thinks that he seems to have the intention of provoking the lord to invite war and taking the opportunity to make a name for himself, but when he heard the order of the lord ordering him to lead the army, he was like this...... Words and deeds are inconsistent, and I am afraid that there is some reason for this. ”

Huang Zhong also echoed: "Gongming is right. Lord, there are many people who are hostile to our army now, although this person has brought Kong Beihai's documents, but he must not be guarded against. ”

No wonder the second general is worried, throughout the ages, there are countless ways to recruit talents. But I've never heard of appointing him as the commander of a thousand armies as soon as they meet, and the one who was recruited didn't ask, and just agreed to it.

This doesn't make sense!

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong thought to themselves, if it was themselves, if Wang Yu would use this trick as soon as they met. The two of them would definitely wonder if Wang Yu was crazy, and then they had the idea of retreating.

But that Tai Shici, although he was also taken aback, agreed very happily, and the change in attitude was also very natural, saying that he had no ghost in his heart. Who believes?

Wang Yu believed.

He was proud in his heart, Tai Shici was the most difficult to subdue and the easiest one among the fierce generals of the Three Kingdoms.

Sun Ce's process of subduing him can be described as twists and turns, fighting face-to-face on the battle array, and capturing the other party, this is not counting, and in the end, Tai Shici also set a test.

He asked for orders to appease Liu Xuan's remnants, and Sun Ce's left and right advised Sun Ce not to agree, for fear that Tai Shici would never return. As a result, Sun Celi overrode public opinion and agreed, and finally won Tai Shici's allegiance.

It took so much effort and twists and turns, which shows how much personality and pride Tai Shici has.

But to put it another way. In terms of appearance, Tai Shici is actually very proactive.

He is also a young man, who offended the powerful, so he avoided trouble because Kong Rong helped take care of his mother. So when Kong Rong was in trouble, he came to help.

This incident itself is normal, the point is that after he saw Kong Rong and reported his identity, he immediately asked for orders to fight. Asking for orders to fight should mean taking the initiative to serve.

In fact, Kong Rong took care of his mother, not with the intention of recruiting him, but he was a great Confucian in the world, and he was covered by the aura of the ancestor Kong Laoer, and he had long been accustomed to the subtle way of doing things in Confucianism.

There must be a process to work or something, and as a result, he was frightened by Tai Shici's extreme approach of not wanting foreplay and going straight to the point, and directly rejected Tai Shici's request.

If he didn't have the military power, Tai Shici was not discouraged, he asked for his life again, and he wanted to break through the siege and ask for help with his own strength, and he had a posture of not giving up until he reached his goal. This time, Kong Rong couldn't help but agree, his life was the young man's own, could he still stop him?

Wang Yu didn't care about it when he first read the novel, but after living and fighting in this era for nearly a year, he suddenly found that the characters in the novel were not far away, and when he pondered the deeds of these people in turn, he found a lot of interesting things.

Tai Shici's actions in Beihai and what he did in Mengjin were completely out of the same mold...... In the midst of the crisis, he begged for military power, or he did it alone. That is, Tai Shici has not been trained as a special soldier or an assassin, otherwise, he would not have run to assassinate Guan Hai.

Later, Tai Shi Ci went to Jiangdong to seek refuge with Liu Xuan, Sun Ce killed the river, unstoppable, and the front line was defeated in successive battles, so Tai Shi Ci asked for war again, but the result was also rejected.

Tai Shi Ci has just arrived, there is no descendant, Liu Miao is not a bold person, it is normal to be rejected, the key is still in the back, this time, he acted alone again. A slight improvement over Beihai is that he has an assistant this time and is no longer alone.

All in all, Wang Yu looked back on Tai Shici's life and felt like seeing an ancient version of himself.

Wang Yu understands himself and knows what he wants, it is easy to satisfy Tai Shici, just know that he can empathize with himself. Therefore, he directly smashed it with a big pie of the leader and knocked Tai Shici unconscious.

Thinking about it, Wang Yu has only one question, what happened when Tai Shici met Liu Bei?

It is said that with Liu Bei's style, when he sees such a fierce man, shouldn't he do his best to envelop him? At this moment, Tai Shi Ci is very proactive, no matter how you think about it, it will be the result of hitting it off, is Tai Shi Ci still counting on returning to Beihai to invite merit and receive rewards?

"Don't worry, there will be no accidents, if my expectations are good, after the expedition, Ziyi should not stay in the Chinese army for too long, with his temper, he should prefer to be with the striker of Wuji."

An outsider, no matter how capable he is, cannot get the command of a unit and exercise his power immediately. He doesn't even recognize all the generals and colonels, he can't understand the banners, and he doesn't have enough intelligence sources, so what else can he talk about commanding the army?

What he gave to Tai Shi Ci is just a nominal title of the main general. The light army of Taishan advanced and marched very fast, Tai Shici wanted to give orders, but he could only pass through Yu Ban, what did he want to rebel against, it was impossible to pull the team away. So, what's there to worry about?

Even if there is really any risk, it is worth it for a cow like Tai Shici. When he came back after making meritorious contributions, he took advantage of the situation to make him a lieutenant. Is there anything more pleasant than a famous player in his pocket without much effort?

Wang Yumei thought to herself.

……

Tai Shi Ci was amazed at the moment, because Yu Ban was gathering troops.

Tai Shici has not yet officially debuted, and the military strategy and art of war have only been learned, and there is no opportunity to apply it practically. But over the years, he has seen a lot of troops, and even watched many battles with his own eyes, and he is inferior to the strength and weakness of the army. has his own unique opinions.

Generally speaking, it is enough to analyze the combat effectiveness of this army from the appearance and reaction speed of a soldier and horse, which is a concrete embodiment of the order and prohibition.

The place where the forbidden soldiers and horses were assembled was in the large school field outside the city, and when the three of them arrived here, the soldiers on the school field were practicing.

In the middle of the school field, there is a phalanx of 1,000 people practicing the formation, and with the shaking of the flag on the platform, the flag is displayed in the phalanx. They responded one after another, and then under the command of the general, they changed from a square formation to a round formation, then to a glaive, and then to a sharp arrow, evolving one formation after another.

The whole process is like a smooth flow, and there is only a banner in my eyes. formation transformation; All I heard was rumbling footsteps and the sound of clanging armor.

Tai Shi Ci didn't have time to pay too much attention to the smooth command and formation change of the Taishan Army, and on the side of the school field, another 2,000 foot soldiers were conducting actual combat drills. Compared with the smooth flow of the drill formation, it is shown here. It's a different style.

In the array, there are all kinds of weapons such as large oars, bows and crossbows, spears, swords and shields, and axes, which are not only murderous, but also make people feel dazzled for a while. However, in the actual confrontation, although the various arms are mixed together, they are not messy at all, and every time the array collides, there will be a burst of chaos, but with the efforts of both sides, the chaos is quickly quelled.

The two sides used not real knives and guns, but all kinds of wooden sticks, but because the battle was very real and fierce, there were constantly wounded. Those who were lightly wounded continued to fight with their wounds, while those who were seriously injured were rescued by both sides themselves.

It was the first time that Tai Shici had seen that the drill would be in such a situation, and the intensity was almost not under the most tragic battles he had ever seen.

Compared with the drill of the foot soldiers, the cavalry training on the other side of the school field attracted Tai Shici's attention more.

The cavalry training was divided into two parts, each with a group of scarecrows as imaginary enemies, and practiced tactics.

With an earth-shattering shout, hundreds of light cavalry divided into three groups in the gallop, and the two white-horse cavalry rushed to the two flanks of the "enemy army", swept half a circle from the "enemy formation" like the wind, and then quickly retreated. The cavalry in the middle slowed down their horses, and when the cavalry on both wings retreated, they raised their crossbows and launched a volley.

Tai Shi Ci was no stranger to this kind of cavalry cavalry cavalry tactics, and it was obvious that this method of warfare was to use the two wings as bait to lure the enemy's formation and then use a strong crossbow salvo to shake the enemy's formation.

After the salvo, the three cavalry alternated positions like butterflies, and the crossbow cavalry retreated and dismounted and began to load the ballista. The White Horse Knight turned into a diagonal charge, and then turned from an oblique charge to a sweep, like two swifts, speeding in front of the two wings of the enemy formation.

After firing almost three arrows each, they were close to a certain distance from the enemy, and at the same time they pulled their horses and retreated like a tide. During the retreat, there were also people who kept immediately turning and attacking backwards.

Almost at the same time, the crossbowmen were reloaded, mounted again, and Morihan's crossbow bolts were pointed back at the enemy position.

Tai Shi Ci could imagine the corresponding battle situation in his mind. If the enemy is attacked by a knight on a white horse and pursues him, he will be attacked head-on by the crossbow cavalry. If you don't chase it, you will be under this repeated blow, constantly bleeding, demoralizing, and finally grinding to death.

Pure cavalry tactics, strong is very strong, but the lethality is insufficient, if you encounter a strong enemy, with a strong bow and crossbow to counterattack, it will evolve into a war of attrition.

However, the existence of crossbow cavalry can make up for the shortcomings of light cavalry in using mounted archery tactics and insufficient lethality, and cavalry archery tactics are more perfect and more terrifying.

In the end, the cavalry was small in number, and their riding skills seemed to be relatively poor, and they practiced charging into battle.

Under the leadership of the main general, the cavalry lined up in the shape of three sharp arrows, one vertical and two horizontal, the vertical one quickly passed through the "enemy formation", and the two horizontal ones advanced diagonally, and the outer layer of straw men neatly removed one layer.

Immediately afterwards, the cavalry general at the head drew a corner flag from behind his back, waved it vigorously, and turned with the cavalry that had penetrated the formation, and once again stepped into the scarecrow array. The other two cavalry armies were reversed, crisscrossing from the flanks.

This is a typical cavalry-on-infantry tactic, using the powerful impact of cavalry to repeatedly strike at key parts of the enemy's army, such as near the flag of the Chinese army, in order to minimize the morale of the opponent and disrupt the opponent's command.

The cavalry on both flanks ran quickly in front of the enemy's formation, looking for the opponent's weak point, and once the cavalry that rushed straight to the center completed the assault, or was blocked in the middle, the subsequent cavalry would strike according to the weak point they found, in order to expand the results of the battle or reduce the loss in the direction of the main attack.

This method of battle is not complicated, what shocked Tai Shici was the armor on the cavalry that charged into battle. This is a heavy cavalry, both men and horses are equipped with armor, the total weight is at least seventy or eighty pounds, and only the eyes of people and horses in front of them are not wrapped in leather and iron sheets.

Tai Shi Ci is not a person who has never seen the world, but he really didn't expect that he could see this level of training here.

All the soldiers and horses performed their duties, the troops were diverse, and the armor and staff were complete, and in a trance, he almost thought that he had returned to the Han Wu era and saw the world-famous Imperial Forest Army in Shanglin Yuan.

Just when his heart was trembling, Yu Ban beside him had already issued an order, ordering all the troops to assemble, and then asked Tai Shi Ci for an order: "General Tai Shi, please take the stage and order the troops." ”
