Chapter 144 The army is enough to go out of the city to meet the enemy
In order to avoid the awkward atmosphere, Zhao Yun looked at Surman with a smile and said, "Brother Surman's mentality is right. A soldier, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he will maintain a winning mentality; no matter how weak the enemy is, he must be cautious! Ha ha, in a word, we should despise the enemy in mentality, pay attention to the enemy in the battlefield, and always maintain the fighting spirit of all out!"
"Okay, what Brother Zilong said!" Tai Shici took the lead and applauded. Although Zhao Yun and Gao Shun's martial arts skills are not at the same level, Zhao Yun's style of leading soldiers and Gao Shun are extremely similar: as if they were created from a mill, they all pay attention to the details of daily training, maintain military discipline, all generals and soldiers are equal, and at the same time love soldiers like children.
Of course, it is extremely strict for a soldier to become a trapped soldier and a white horse, and a warrior under their command.
On the morning of the second day, the sound of gathering drums was remembered in the unfenced camp. After breakfast, all the soldiers finished their short rest. The cavalry rode horses, the infantry walked, and rushed to the simple school field. Zhao Yun and Tai Shici stood side by side on the one-meter-high platform. Yan Yun's bodyguard and Bai Ma Yi were separated from the guards on the two sides of the platform. Gao Shun Surman had already stood three meters in front of the platform in line.
The number of soldiers gathered was reported by team. The captain reported the number to Qu Junhou, and Qu Junhou reported the total number to the department Sima, and the department Sima reported the statistics to the battalion lieutenant. Finally, the battalion lieutenant reported the number of soldiers in his department to Zhao Yun and Tai Shici.
More than 2,000 cavalry under the command of Taishi Ci are on the left side of the whole army anyway, while the white horse Yicong and infantry led by Zhao Yun are on the right side of the whole army's phalanx. The largest number of phalanxes in the middle are prisoners from Liu Yu's side. Suddenly facing a legion-scale force, Zhao Yun was also a little unsedent. He secretly adjusted his breathing, and then the stars flashed and patrolled the giant phalanx back and forth.
Zhao Yun waved his hand, and the sound of the thick drum stopped abruptly. As soon as the drums stopped, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici felt a strong sense of killing coming from the phalanx of tens of thousands of people at the same time. Stimulated by the strong murderous spirit, the two couldn't help looking at each other. At the same time, the two sighed from the bottom of their hearts: the phalanx composed of more than 10,000 soldiers is really spectacular, really extraordinary, and really extraordinary.
In the face of the surging murderous spirit, the two of them suddenly felt the courage and courage to sacrifice their lives and death, although tens of millions of people will die. Tai Shici nodded to Zhao Yunzhong. Zhao Yun understood and began to teach the ten thousand people's phalanx: "Gentlemen, today we are going out of the city to meet the Rongdi army! The ancients said: Wen died in the position, and the martial arts died in the battlefield! For us, the battlefield is the stage where life blooms and the best destination of life! ...Today is the time for us to fight to the death with the Rongdi army. I hope you can maintain a high fighting spirit and kill the enemy bravely! In the end, I would have reported your performance to Jihou truthfully, and let Jihou be rewarded for their achievements!"
Zhao Yun spoke, focusing on the phalanx composed of prisoners. These prisoners are either the imperial army under Liu Yu's command or the soldiers of the local clan. They usually only know how to show off their power and do not have much combat effectiveness. However, at this time, if they don't fight desperately in the upcoming battle, it is estimated that they will still be executed by military law, because they are waiting for sin.
Under the mobilization of Zhao Yun, they are also full of fighting spirit, even the timid clan soldiers. At this time, they are also clenching their fists and swearing: even if they die on the battlefield, they have to pull an enemy soldier as a cushion before they die...
Zhao Yun looked at the warm-blooded expression of the prisoners and soldiers and nodded with satisfaction. In the bright sunshine, Zhao Yun raised the red triangular flag indicating the departure of the army. Under the command of Zhao Yun, more than 10,000 troops left the school military field in an orderly manner according to the arrangement of the part.
At this time, the soldiers guarding the city have opened three gates. The remains of the limbs covering the official road and various city defense equipment have also been cleaned up. Even the bunkers piled up of corpses hundreds of meters from the root of the city wall were cleaned up, and the bodies of thousands of enemies were buried on the spot.
The army of more than 10,000 troops divided into three roads and passed through three gates, and rushed to the grass north of Feilongling at a uniform speed. The cavalry is in the front, and the infantry is behind. Of course, the infantry phalanx is subdivided into a long gun phalanx and a shield phalanx, and the archer's phalanx is at the end.
As the main speaker, Tai Shici and Zhao Yun stood side by side in front of the large phalanx. At this time, the opposite Rongdi army was also gathering troops. Because they were all cavalry, Rongdi's army formed a phalanx and rushed from the camp to the battlefield, and then the second phalanx was assembled... Although this method was rough, it was more mobile and flexible. Be able to deal with emergencies at any time.
In the shaking of the earth, in the sound of horseshoes like thunder, in the smoke and dust rising from the sky, waves of Rongdi cavalry rushed straight to the battlefield. It was not until a kilometer away from the officer's phalanx that Rong Di's cavalry immediately stood still. Thousands of meters is the best distance for cavalry to charge, which will be exciting for both horses and soldiers.
If the phalanx of the officers and soldiers is a regular goose-wing array, then the Rongdi army that is being gathered is a vertical long snake array. I don't know how many meters its team stretches from head to back, and there is no end at a glance. Such a "one" formation can ensure that the area hit is small, and at the same time, it can ensure the possibility of a rapid charge.
As for the composition of Rong Di's army, Zhao Yun, who has been fighting with Rong Di for many years, is naturally familiar with it, and Tai Shici has also understood it through Surman's description before. Zhao Yun was afraid that Taishi Ci could not recognize the composition of Rongdi's army. He pointed to the army of Rongdi's army and said softly to Taishici: "Taishi, the army on the left side of the enemy's camp. The cavalry wearing animal skin armor and scattered long hair are the Xiongnu soldiers. The cavalry in the middle camp of the enemy army is Xianbei soldiers wearing light armor, and the face on the right is covered with five. The colored paint is the Wuhuan soldier! In addition, it can also be distinguished from the equipment of the war horses: because the Xianbei people are influenced by the Han culture, their war horses have saddles, and Wuhuan is the rising star after the Xiongnu occupying the grassland. Their war horses, like the Xiongnu cavalry, have no saddles! In this way, the ancient Xiongnu soldiers of the Wuhuan cavalry, like the ancient Xiongnu soldiers, are all skilled in horse riding... Comparatively speaking, the Chinese Xianbei soldiers are more fierce than the Wuheng soldiers and Xiongnu soldiers, and they can't wait for it!"
Tai Shici focused on the enemy who could not see the black pressure a kilometer away, listened to Zhao Yun's detailed introduction, and nodded silently. Familiar with history, Taishici also knows some historical common sense: it can be said that from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Mobei grassland was the world of the Huns. The Huns often harassed the frontier fortress of the Central Plains by relying on highly mobile cavalry until they reached their peak in the early Han Dynasty. The previous emperors of the Han Dynasty used peace to deal with the powerful Xiongnu. It was not until the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the Central Plains had the strength to challenge the Xiongnu. After several expeditions, the army of the Han Dynasty finally eliminated the main force of the Huns, and from then on, the Huns could no longer form a climate.
However, due to the unconvinced water and soil, and because the Han Dynasty did not have the strength to completely occupy the vast grassland, a side of water and soil must raise a person. On the vast grassland, the ancient master fell down, and new forces sprung up: the Xianbei and Wuhuan people gradually When they became strong, the Qiang people in the western region of Tianshan also penetrated the tentacles of power... After a hundred years of running-in, they finally formed a pattern of multiple ethnic groups jointly occupying vast grasslands and deserts. They were collectively called "Northern Rongdi" by the Han rulers at that time. Rongdi in the north echoed the barbarians in the south, often invading the territory of the Han people...
