Emperor Luoxi had fought with Nanliang and knew the organization and combat methods of Nanliang's army.
She was very supportive of the reforms proposed by Long Chen. The reason was very simple. The current combat method in Nanliang was established by Long Chen's family, and Long Chen knew best how to deal with the Nanliang army.
Especially after going deep into the hinterland of Nanliang, only Long Chen knows how to fight according to the terrain of Nanliang.
In Linjiang City, Dazhou and Nanliang fought several battles, but Linjiang City was bordered by the river to the north and empty flat land to the south, so it was still effective to fight with large armies.
It won't work any further south and must be changed.
Han Ziping came to ask Di Luoxi, but it was of little use because Di Luoxi didn't know how to fight further south.
"How dare you, the general? King Wu is so powerful, but I just don't know what to do. I want to ask the princess how to deal with King Wu?"
Han Ziping didn't dare to say he was better than Long Chen, he just wanted to take advantage.
Di Luoxi smiled and said: "I don't know much, but the fighting method of Nanliang's army is probably like this."
Di Luoxi told Han Ziping what she knew. Xue Ping listened carefully and thought about how to deal with it.
...
Two days passed quickly.
Based on his own ideas, Han Ziping trained a team of 30 people and then arrived at the school field.
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi stood on the general stage, while other generals gathered around the school grounds to watch the battle.
Long Chen led five teams, each team consisted of six people, totaling thirty people.
Han Ziping, like Xue Ping, also has thirty people. His team formation method is similar to Long Chen's, including shields, spearmen, swordsmen and crossbowmen.
It's just that Han Ziping's distribution is different, one shield soldier, three spear soldiers, one sword soldier, and one crossbowman.
"You don't agree with the change, but you learn from me?"⑧①ZW.????m
Long Chen found it funny. The military formation Han Ziping was using had changed, and it was different from the Long Family Army's original combat formation.
Han Ziping said with a smile: "There is nothing we can do. We will wait until we win on the battlefield."
Originally, Han Ziping planned to follow the original method, with spearmen, swordsmen, and crossbowmen each divided into three teams.
But yesterday, when they learned about Nanliang's combat team from Di Luoxi, they tried it inside the military camp and found that it couldn't be done.
The two struggled for a long time, and finally decided to make some changes and win first.
Long Chen smiled and said: "It's good to know!"
By doing this, Han Ziping and Xue Ping were admitting that they wanted to change.
The generals who were watching were also talking about this:
"Old Han, this military formation is wrong. Why are you acting like an adult?"
"This is not how our Long Family Army fights."
"Obviously, Han Ziping is learning from adults."
"They tried it yesterday and found that this military formation is indeed better."
"Doesn't that mean admitting that you want to change?"
The generals below were talking a lot, and Di Luoxi said on the stage: "Are you ready? Can we start?"
Xue Ping said: "Ready."
Dugu Jiali, who was watching from the side, smiled at Han Ziping and said: "Old Han, defeat him and capture King Wu alive!"
Wu Xiangyun said with a smile: "Yes, if you capture King Wu alive, you will be rewarded with thousands of gold coins, and you will be granted the title of Marquis of ten thousand households!"
The onlookers burst into laughter.
These words reminded Han Ziping, and he immediately said: "Today's battle will only involve soldiers, and King Wu is not allowed to take action."
If Long Chen ends up in person, a thousand Han Ziping won't be enough to fight him.
Xue Ping immediately said: "Yes, King Wu is not allowed to enter!"
Emperor Lingyi smiled and said: "Nonsense, King Wu has entered, you can surrender now."
The surrounding generals burst into laughter again.
Long Chen said: "Okay, let's get started!"
Ten teams formed on both sides, and Di Luoxi gave the order, and 60 people started fighting in the general camp.
From a distance, the crossbowmen fired first, and the shield soldiers blocked the front and advanced. When the distance was close, the spearmen began to thrust, and then the sword soldiers rushed out from behind the shield soldiers and attacked from both sides.
The lineups of both sides are similar, and the opening battles are also similar.
But the team on Long Chen's side suddenly changed. Two teams suddenly besieged one team. After quickly defeating one team, they turned around and targeted the other team.
Han Ziping's team was caught off guard and was quickly defeated.
However, everyone was part of the Long Family Army, and they were all well-trained warriors. After discovering something was wrong, Han Ziping's team immediately besieged them, and Long Chen's team was also defeated in two.
The broken team quickly reorganized and joined the battle again, two teams became one.
After a period of fighting, Han Ziping's five teams were all wiped out, Long Chen lost one team, and the remaining four teams were each injured.
The battle is over.
After observing carefully, Emperor Lingyi said, "I remember that the Nanliang army didn't fight like this?"
Di Luoxi said: "Have you made improvements?"
Di Luoxi remembered that Nanliang's army was not so mobile.
Long Chen said: "Yes, I have made some improvements. Our military formation is similar to that of Nanliang. If we use the same tactics, we will only lose money, so we must make some changes."
I just practiced different combat methods, and I haven't added the musketeers yet.
If the musketeers are incorporated, the combat effectiveness will be stronger.
After watching this drill, the onlookers and generals quickly understood that this method of warfare was better.
They are all veterans who have fought in the war. It can be imagined that in the terrain of Nanliang, this kind of mobile team is more suitable.
Especially after being broken up, they can quickly reorganize and regain their combat effectiveness.
Di Luoxi stood on the stage and asked: "Everyone, what do you think?"
The onlookers shouted: "Agree to the restructuring!"
Actual combat tested the combat effectiveness, distinguished the advantages and disadvantages, and all the generals agreed to the changes.
Long Chen walked up to the general platform and said: "Okay, starting from today, we will start the restructuring."
According to Long Chen's plan, the entire army began to be reorganized according to the original plan, consisting of shield soldiers, musketeers, spear soldiers, sword soldiers, and crossbow soldiers.
New combat units were formed and the entire army began to train again.
...
Sands City.
The hunting north wind blew up sand and gravel, and the sky and earth became dim.
This was originally the border city of Xixia. After the fall of Xixia, a new governor took office, and Jinsha City was also included in the territory of the Zhou Dynasty.
This place is located on the border, suffering from drought and bitter cold, and the conditions are harsh and harsh.
Most of the local people herd sheep in the Gobi Desert or make a living by doing business. It is almost impossible to farm the land. The land is covered with yellow sand and there is a lack of water sources. Only some high mountains, relying on melted blood water, have a little green.
Prefect Li Xiqi wore a veil and was followed by dozens of knights, patrolling around Jinsha City.
"Sir, it looks like it's going to snow."
A general behind him narrowed his eyes slightly. The cold wind blew his cheeks cracked and his lips peeled.
This person is Jinsha City Cavalry Commander Zhang Hua, who is responsible for the military affairs of Jinsha City.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Hua is a county lieutenant in Jinsha City, and his rank is lower than that of the prefect Li Xiqi. They are each responsible for military affairs and are not subordinate to each other.
"It doesn't matter if it snows. There is no rain this year. If it doesn't snow, the sheep will have no grass to eat next year."
Li Xiqi is very worried. This year Jinsha City basically depends on the court's disaster relief food to survive.
Fortunately, the trade routes were smooth, a lot of tax money was collected, and there was no financial deficit.
"Go back, sir, the wind is too strong."
Zhang Hua saw that the wind was getting stronger and suggested returning to the city.
Li Xiqi said: "We will patrol further to the west. King Wu asked us to be on guard against the country of Us in the west. We must not slack off."
When Long Chen and Shi Le were at war, Shi Le sent Tang Guolong and Pu Xuan, ministers of Honglu Temple, to the Usi State to ask for help, hoping to get assistance from the Usi State.
Before the reinforcements could come back, Xixia was destroyed by Long Chen.
Although Xixia was destroyed, Long Chen was always worried about Pu Xuan and Tang Guolong. If they brought back any reinforcements, there would be trouble in the west.
Therefore, Long Chen specifically asked the prefect Li Xiqi to beware of reinforcements from the Uzbek state and report it immediately if there is any situation!
"Okay, let's take a look."
Cavalry Captain Zhang Hua followed Li Xiqi and continued walking westward.
