The heavy infantry phalanx tactic is a phalanx tactic whose attack power is lower than its defensive power. The heavy infantry phalanx is the most resistant to cavalry charges. In the face of a heavy infantry phalanx with complete weapons and equipment, a firm will, and strict discipline, the cavalry often takes over.
There is no advantage. In fact, when facing heavily armored knights, because the nature of horses is not to rush towards spear-shaped objects, it is difficult for the cavalry to break through the infantry phalanx with spears pointing outward and strong shield walls. This is also what Zeng Yi
The reason why the heavy infantry phalanx was chosen.
In fact, in Chinese history, the Qin army's formations were even more powerful. It is said that the Qin army was equipped with 7-meter spears and countless advanced bows and crossbows. When attacking, no matter what happened, these soldiers had to move forward with their spears.
, if the front row falls, the back row immediately takes over, keeping the square formation unchanged.
As you can imagine, in order to turn thousands or tens of thousands of people into an iron-walled phalanx, the soldiers must undergo rigorous training. In terms of weapons and combat methods, spearmen are the most lethal infantry unit. Spearhead
Like a forest, the phalanx is like a mountain, and the huge impact is unstoppable. However, the Qin army's formation requires too much equipment. Not to mention that players do not have as powerful crossbows as Great Qin. Players do not even have the spears equipped by the phalanx.
Not to mention that players don't have the same training as the Qin army. Zeng Yi can only settle for the next best thing.
...
The elite heavy cavalry of the Persian army were indeed elite. In order to stay hidden, they marched through the night and raided for hundreds of miles overnight. By the time it dawned the next day, they were already less than a few miles away from Zeng Yi and the others. This distance was so important.
The cavalry and their troops quickly arrived at the area where Zeng Yi and others set up an ambush.
After Zhou Yi received the flying pigeon message from the three bosses, he immediately ordered the Blood-clothed Guards and Tianxiang Guild's five thousand cavalry to hide. At the same time, he began to ask the remaining players to quickly set up their formations according to the night drill.
Although Zeng Yi repeatedly emphasized that one must remember one's position, and even though one drill had been carried out at night, the players were still in chaos when the formation started. Seeing this situation, Zeng Yi was speechless, and couldn't help but said angrily:
"Mader, we shouldn't let them rest. After the formation is completed, just let them hold on until now!"
While directing everyone to set up the formation, he also quickly sent a message to the three bosses, "Boss, the third and fourth, we are not ready yet, try to find a way to delay some time."
"Damn! Why are you delaying this? This is 20,000 heavy cavalry!" The three of them also sent messages to Zeng Yi, a flying pigeon, and were speechless.
But in Wuyu, we have to find a way to delay the Persians.
"How to do it?" The boss and the third child all looked at the fourth child.
"What else can we do, sneak attack, assassination and poisoning! Just use all kinds of methods to top it!" The three of them really had no other choice but to use these crooked methods.
The Persian army was walking when they suddenly noticed a figure appearing in front of them. They immediately sent people to check. However, the man suddenly attacked and killed the soldiers who went to check. The Persian soldiers were furious and immediately pursued him. As a result, he was killed.
Three, this guy will kill you with one hit and then run away immediately!
The Persian army wanted to reach Fengxiang City as soon as possible and cooperate with your army, so they did not pursue the third brother and set out again. However, before they had gone far, another soldier was poisoned. The fourth brother arranged some small traps halfway, and people
Even if they didn't show up, the Persian soldiers were recruited.
The Persian army had to slow down and check the traps on the road. Just when they slowed down and checked the traps, the boss took action. The boss didn't have so many tricks up his sleeve. He just did it hard. Ordinary Persian soldiers.
No matter how strong he is, he is still no match for the boss.
In this way, the three bosses took turns and tried their best to delay the Persian army. However, after all, the number of the three was limited and they could not delay for much longer.
"Okay! We can't hold it off any longer!"
"It will be done soon! No need to delay it any longer!" After replying to the three bosses with a flying pigeon letter, Zeng Yi quickly said to these players: "The Persian heavy cavalry is coming soon! Don't be afraid, the worst is to die, someone in front will be killed.
Kill, the people behind must make up for it immediately, don't let anyone catch the loophole!"
Zeng Yi led the Blood Guard heavy cavalry and participated in countless wars, large and small. He knew very well the shock of heavy cavalry charges. In the real world, it once happened that when filming a cavalry charge scene, the extras who defended the heavy cavalry charges ended up being
I was so frightened by the heavy cavalry that I even peed my pants on the spot.
"Don't worry, Boss Ni, how could we be scared by a group of NPCs!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Just don't pee your pants when the time comes!"
...
The Persian heavy cavalry troops quickly arrived on the Gobi, and the vanguard troops easily discovered the players' infantry phalanx that had already formed and was waiting for them!
A long distance away, the Persian heavy cavalry troops stopped. Compared to the players, Persia was called elite this time, and they had orders and prohibitions. Twenty thousand people were lined up neatly, far enough to stare at people like Zeng Yi.
Although these Persian heavy cavalry looked very powerful, Zeng Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The equipment of these Persian heavy cavalry was also considered powerful, but it still could not be compared with that of the blood-clad guards. The golden armor of the blood-clad guards could be called
The most powerful heavy cavalry equipment.
"Woo...Woo..." Several horns sounded, and the Persian army began to move. It approached slowly at first, but the speed became faster and faster, and soon the Persian heavy cavalry charged with all their strength.
"Arrows in position!" Zeng Yi immediately ordered when he saw the Persian heavy cavalry charging. Hundreds of players in the infantry square immediately drew their bows and set arrows.
"put!"
A row of arrows soared into the sky and were inserted a hundred steps away. The standard arrow is the standard for arrows. The standard arrow is basically the longest range of the same type of bow and arrow. If there is a standard arrow inserted there, the player
They can also judge that as long as the enemy cavalry approaches the target arrow, they can just release the bow and arrow in their hands.
The Persian heavy cavalry quickly rushed through the arrows. At the same time, the player also released bows and arrows, but the arrows that the players could use were limited, and such bow and arrow attacks could not last long at all.
Just after the player fired two rounds, the Persian heavy cavalry on horseback suddenly all raised their javelins. Seeing the javelin, Zeng Yi was very familiar with it, so he naturally knew how powerful the javelin was, especially like this, the charging heavy cavalry threw
The power of the javelin can be said to be extremely abnormal. Zeng Yi immediately shouted, "Raise your shield to defend!"
As soon as the shield was raised, the Persian heavy cavalry released the javelin, and then Zeng Yi heard the muttering sound coming from the shield above his head. After the sound stopped, Zeng Yi quickly gave an order to restore the original formation.
