Before sunrise, the earth was already slightly lit.
When the Ming army set out from the main camp, no one except the generals and officers were allowed to speak loudly, and everything marched according to flags and drums.
Before the decisive battle, there was a tense atmosphere. The soldiers who had held their positions last night gave up their positions at the front in accordance with the flag order, and the soldiers and horses who had rested last night lined up in front.
Zhu Youxiao also arrived on the ice at the mouth of the river. The 5,000 military police officers who were on duty last night protected the chariot formation and now gave way. The newly arrived soldiers and horses guarded the chariot formation in a ring. There was a high platform in the center of the chariot formation. Zhu Youxiao
The principal, Zhang Quan, and Qi Jin stood on the high platform, with flag bearers and drum trumpets all in place behind them.
Zhang Quan ordered: "Shout once."
"Daah~daah~daah!"
The trumpeter had to make the trumpet sound like a swan.
"Daah~daah~daah!" When the other soldiers and horses heard the swan trumpet, they also blew the swan sound.
"Ho! Ho!" Upon hearing the swan trumpet, the Ming army, led by the generals and officers, shouted one after another.
"Ho! Ho!" "Ho! Ho!"
"All the enemy's seven flags were spread out at the foot of the mountain. The two yellow flags were facing the Chinese army. The white and blue flags were facing the Jiliao army. The red flag was on the Nanshan Mountain on the edge of the official road. Only 3,000 low Li flags were left on the edge of the official road.
The army deployed horses, muskets, and sidecars to directly confront the lower ground expeditionary corps."
In You Hong and Banner, there is the auxiliary command method of shouting commands and order soldiers.
Zhang Quan and Qi Jin stood firm.
At present, the Ming Dynasty mainly uses two sets of command methods. Among them, the sound command system of the Ming army, which is mainly based on war drums, horns, trumpets, gold stones, and gongs, is implemented from the lower levels to the grassroots. All soldiers participating in small battles must learn to listen.
Voice commands, and then take corresponding tactical actions.
Thinking slowly outside my mind, the enemy's arrangement is really vicious.
For example, if the flag is rushed into the enemy's formation, it can be stopped. The soldiers in the fierce battle will know that the general launched a surprise attack to kill the enemy, and will be encouraged to cooperate with the retreat. On the contrary, the low flag will definitely be cut down. See
By now, you will know that the safety of the coach is not guaranteed and that the battle was fought badly...
The enemy's formation seems to be slightly stronger in the direction of the official road in the east. This is Tian Ji's strategy of horse racing. The strongest soldiers and horses are against the weak lowland defenders of Jingu. They have no intention of winning, rather than attrition through shooting.
Or lead the Jingu down to the low ground to give up the terrain advantage.
Zhang Quan and Qi Mahu looked with the telescope for a while. Although the magnification of the telescope was low, they still could not see dozens of yellow flags moving westward.
"According to the order!"
In the mountains and plains west of the river two miles away, the sound of trumpets blowing and the cries of swans were also heard, and two shouts were made in unison.
"Ding ding ding!"
"Whenever the trumpet blows the sound of a swan, it is for the soldiers to shout." Zhu Youxiao knew that this was a regulation of the Ming army.
Before Zhang Quan Qi gave the order, Zhang Quan waved the flag and ordered the troops to immediately end the gold ringing. However, in that ringing of gold, he used a gold hammer to hit the front of the copper Zheng to make a "clang, clang, clang" sound. Instead, he struck the edge of the copper Zheng.
Make a sharp sound of "ding ding ding!"
The enemy's formation has been basically identified. The scouts are fighting and advancing. They have to pay a certain amount of losses but also cause a certain amount of damage to the enemy scouts.
"yes!"
It's bad... I originally wanted to leave. It wasn't Nurhaci and the main force of the Four Banners who were fighting. The official conduct was the key.
Setting up the formation like that was equivalent to protecting Zhu Youxiao's cavalry, but it directly exposed the Chinese army behind the enemy's seven weakest flags.
However, in the past, generals, officers, and troops were still unfamiliar with flags and semaphores. In ancient Eastern land warfare, there was no set of semaphores for naval battles. Especially when the war was calm and the sound of fighting was shaking, the role of flags and semaphore was particularly important.
.To command each unit in which direction to move, support, and attack, there is no own way of passing flags, so the soldiers can look at the flags and follow the orders to move.
However, the enemy was very stupid and simply gave up the main road and camped on the southern hillside. The small army faced off directly at the foot of the mountain with a long snake formation.
The enemy's position has been moved from the official road in the middle of the plain to the east to the foot of the mountain due south. This means that the enemy is directly confronting You Hong. The enemy and you are four feet apart, facing the southernmost point of the Qinghekou Plain from the south to the north.
Zhang Quanqi picked up a telescope and observed the enemy's formation.
Although I am familiar with modern tactics, I am still very unfamiliar with ancient battlefield command. Now I need to become familiar with real command methods instead of shouting at the top of my lungs.
The scouts withdrew to their respective units, and the lowland and central troops fired artillery to prevent the enemy scouts from pursuing and approaching.
It was after a while that the messengers gathered the news to the Chinese army.
"True yellow flag!"
Nurhaci raises the Four Banners to raise Bao Yi, and raises horses to support people. There is not much food and livestock this year, so even if Bao Yi is starved to death, You Hong's main force will be exhausted.
The ancient wars in the East were large-scale and the large number of people required special and effective command methods. Therefore, the command method developed was completely the same as the ancient Western command method of shouting commands.
The military police regiment and Tengxiang left guard's scouts immediately dispatched, and hundreds of scouts set off to explore southward.
After a while, Tanqi and the enemy scouts finished fighting, and while fighting, they were investigating the enemy's position. Jiannu also speeded up to occupy the entire southern hillside. The flags were numerous and continuous from the hillside to the plain at the foot of the mountain. Half an hour ago, they were yellow, red and blue.
, Bailian City is a piece of land, seven colors complement each other in the sunshine.
For Zhang Quan and Qi to command that kind of small-scale battle, he still needs to be familiar with the Ming army and the content of flag command. If Zhang Quan and Qi Jin are not good at this, they can just do the battle guidance themselves.
"Send the order, Zhu You's 17,000 soldiers and horses from the school headquarters will withdraw from your southwest to the northwest. The worst is to form an formation close to the small camp."
The detectives also went to the southeast official road and the mountains south of the Liaohe River. Through the telescope, they looked out at the yellow flags standing up against the wind on the plains on the southern mountains.
The two armies must have faced each other at the mouth of the Qinghe River. Although Jingu did not have the 100,000 cattle and sheep obtained from the grassland plunder, as well as a batch of grain and grass shipped from Guangning later, the consumption was very slow. After all, it was better than the Jiannu who was very close to the grain road.
Main force.
"Whenever we attack Phnom Penh, we send people to detect thieves." That was You Hong's unified order to detect the enemy's situation.
As the sound of "beating the golden edge" came from the small 绛, the Ming army's hands on the edge of the car array also knocked on the edge of the bronze hammer, and the sound of "ding ding ding!" spread to seven weeks.
Therefore, we must fight to the death, and we will definitely be able to defeat Nurhaci outside.
"drive!"
"Send out night troops to investigate the enemy's formation."
The two flanks of the lowlands in the east and the plains in the west also heard the sound of "attacking Phnom Penh", and scouts were dispatched one after another to explore the enemy's situation to the east, south and southeast.
She attacked directly along the Liao River. This was a head-to-head battle. It must have gone north along the official road to the east of the lowland, and then weakly attacked the lowland to compete for the commanding point. This was not the weakest shield for the conquest corps and the Sichuan army.
The two yellow banners, the Zhengbai Banner, and the Zhenglan Banner surpassed the Jiliao Army of the Chinese Army and Zhu Youxiao and others in terms of military strength.
That order was called "beating the golden edge".
Qian Jin retreated slowly, but instead gave You Hong a "way to survive". If Jin Gu walked from the official road to Tieling, he would be attacked by Jiannu wantonly.
