Chapter 4590 Major General Leads the New Generation
Fu Hongzhi frowned: "Should my cavalry be deployed on both wings of the front army? Or should they be hidden behind the Crane Wing Formation?"
Liu Daogui said in a deep voice: "Half of your cavalry will serve as cavalry and form up behind the Crane Wing Formation. The other half will need to be harnessed to heavy baggage vehicles. I need a chariot of three hundred to attack."
Fu Hongzhi suddenly understood and said with a smile: "This battle requires the use of chariots, that's fine. Chariots are on the plains and are huge weapons against infantry, especially light infantry. Although the demon thieves are capable, they are
Most of them fight with short weapons and are naturally restrained by chariots. If they initiate a charge, the counterattack with chariots will be more effective than using ordinary cavalry."
Liu Daogui nodded: "Qingpingyuan is a plain, but it just rained here the day before yesterday. The soil is soft and muddy. If you use a tank to fight back, even if you can't form an impact, you can still shoot against the baffle and do it on the tank."
Fighting, no matter how bad it is, is still an obstacle, but it can be used to prevent enemy attacks."
Tan Daoji nodded: "Indeed, the attack of the demon thieves is very fierce, and they may also have various attacking tools. We need to keep their impact front as far away from our frontline as possible, and we cannot let the soldiers face the impact of these demon thieves directly.
, since we cannot set up camp, we must rely on various obstacles to delay the attack of the demon thieves. Hongzhi, your task is important, and all the army's carts will be handed over to you."
Fu Hongzhi smiled and said: "In the past few years we have been in Jingzhou, in addition to riding, I have also been training in driving chariots. It just comes in handy today. However, this requires some time to set up the chariot. Now we are here
The number of baggage trucks is probably less than three hundred."
Liu Daogui said calmly: "First, let the brothers be ready to mount their horses and fight at any time. When I came back this time, I brought more than 400 carts to deliver supplies to the Ma Tou Camp. They are in the rear and will arrive later.
Arrived, I have given orders that after they unload the goods, they will come directly with empty trucks and prepare for battle. The big trucks will arrive by the second watch. Before the third watch, the rigging of the trucks must be completed. No problem, Hongzhi."
Fu Hongzhi said solemnly: "No problem, it's just that the Qingping Plain battlefield is muddy now. When I went to Wulindu and passed here before, it was difficult to use full speed. If it was a battle, it was not very suitable for cavalry attacks. Not only us, but also the
The demon thieves should also have an impact. Brother Daogui, you need to consider this more when commanding the battle. If the two sides fall into a melee, the mobility of the cavalry and chariots will be greatly affected."
Liu Daogui nodded: "No problem, I will take this into consideration. Where is the captain Zhu Xiuzhi?"
A young man in his twenties with a dash of heroic spirit emerged from the military academy. He was none other than Zhu Xiuzhi, the grandson of the famous general Zhu Xu, the former governor of Jingzhou. He also inherited his father's military position and joined the army as a weak champion. In the previous Jiangling Water Battle, there were
Due to his outstanding performance, he was promoted from a building owner to the position of captain. During the military meeting at this time, Liu Daogui specially brought him with him. He originally thought he was just following orders, but now he suddenly called him.
The name couldn't help but be a little exciting, and even the voice that came out to promise was a little trembling.
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Xiuzhi, don't be nervous. This is just an ordinary battle. It is no different from the previous battle of Jiangling. Just obey orders and use your talents. I believe you will not let us down. You
How is your archer training going?"
Zhu Xiuzhi said seriously: "After receiving your order, I did not dare to slack off. I specially selected 3,500 Jingzhou archers who are good at shooting. They have been intensively training in the past six months. Now everyone can shoot three stones and five buckets."
The bow can shoot from a distance of one hundred and twenty steps, and the lob shot can also effectively kill soldiers from a distance of a hundred steps."
Liu Daogui laughed: "Yes, yes, I have seen your training before. It is true that the bows are strong and the arrows are fast. However, I will not use your bows and arrows at the beginning of this battle. Instead, when the two armies are fighting, you must
Can you use a rain of arrows to cover your shots and block the charge of the enemy's rear troops?"
Zhu Xiuzhi was slightly startled: "Then we have to be behind the battle line, about fifty steps away from the formation to fire. Isn't it too close? If it is further away, our companions in the melee will be shot.
"
Liu Daogui said solemnly: "Yes, our battle, whether it is the Dongman brothers, chariots or cavalry counterattacks, is to push the enemy troops away from our heavy infantry line as much as possible. Only by weakening the enemy's spirit and disrupting the
Only under their arrangement can the heavy infantry attack, with shield formations and Lin Lin generals pushing out. Therefore, our front line will start with a counterattack of light troops and tanks, about thirty to five people.
At a distance of ten steps, the two armies were fighting in a melee, instead of the previous style of fighting, where only the heavy infantry fought within ten steps."
At this point, Liu Daogui's eyes flashed coldly: "This requires the archers to fight in front of the heavy infantry line, not behind it. You need to rush out of the line and approach the fighting front line, fifty steps, and finally
It is best to shoot arrows here from a distance of thirty steps. Only in this way can we effectively kill and block the enemy forces behind the fighting zone."
Zhu Xiuzhi took a deep breath: "According to your wishes, Zhengxi, we may engage in close combat or fighting with the enemy troops rushing over at any time, right?"
Liu Daogui nodded: "Yes, at a distance of thirty steps, the enemy may come out of the battlefield at any time and come straight to you. I will send some melee troops to protect you, but all archers also need to be prepared for melee combat.
Weapons, axes and swords are needed, and once the enemy comes close, they have to engage in battle."
Having said this, Liu Daogui looked to the other side: "Colonel Liu Zhendao, where is Pei Fangming?"
Two young men in their twenties, with sturdy backs and shoulders, stepped forward and responded with great enthusiasm: "I am here to wait for the military order to conquer the West."
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "You two proved your courage and close combat ability in the Battle of Jiangling. After the war, I also specially selected soldiers from the two schools for you to train. Zhendao, how is the training of your halberdiers?
?”
Liu Zhendao laughed: "According to your instructions, my halberd warriors were trained with the halberd technique of General He Wuji of Zhengnan, and also added some moves of Chudi's Gefa, specializing in one-on-one combat.
.The eight-foot-long halberd can be used freely by all of them, such as finger-arm wielding, and can also be shortened to five feet in length for close combat. We all use two-handed halberds without shields, in order to deal with these light swordsmen like demon thieves.
, while ensuring flexibility, it also has an advantage in terms of weapon length.”
