These three battle formations are the attacking and shooting formation, the defensive shooting formation and the flying shooting formation.
The attack and shooting formation is relatively simple, divided into two modes: field battle and fortification.
When fighting in the field, they lined up in a row, with one step to the left and two steps to the front and back. When encountering the enemy, they would use the crossbow's ultra-long attack range to shoot slightly upward or horizontally, instantly forming a crossbow strike that covered the sky and the moon. It was called ancient times.
version of the cluster bomb. Of course, archers also have their own significance. Due to their long-term training, compared with crossbowmen who rely on numbers to form an all-out strike, archers' arrows are more accurate and can easily form targeted arrow rain.
Carry out self-protection.
For example, when the crossbows are mixed, they are basically arranged in three rows with two rows of crossbowmen and one row of crossbowmen, advancing in staggered steps. When encountering the enemy, the first row of crossbowmen shoots first, and then stops loading.
Arrow clusters, the second row of crossbowmen advanced from the gap, stopped shooting, and then reloaded, in sequence
cycle, forming a continuous crossbow attack. Here, the third row of archers are responsible for solving the fish that slipped through the net after the crossbowmen's two consecutive shots.
The accuracy forms a defensive line of arrow rain, protecting the crossbowmen and killing enemy generals at the same time.
The follow-up infantry will take advantage of the opportunity when the enemy is defeated by the crossbow formation and cannot form a formation, and calmly follow them to charge and engage the enemy. Generally speaking, if it is a pure attack and shooting formation, the first few rows of the infantry formation are basically
They are all soldiers with shields. They can form an indestructible shield wall at any time, which not only consolidates the line but also provides further protection for the crossbowmen. It provides the crossbowmen with the opportunity to shoot the charging cavalry, infantry and defend the opponent's crossbowmen.
.
As for the attack formation, it is much simpler. The first few rows are all shield soldiers, followed by crossbowmen. Archers are left and right or interspersed among the crossbowmen, shooting according to the tactical requirements, and advancing step by step.
The defensive and shooting formation is relatively complex. It must be arranged according to the terrain environment, forming a semicircle, a circle, or relying on the defense fortifications formed by tanks, trenches, and sandbags for shooting. In the absence of tanks, trenches, sandbags, and other fortifications,
, the crossbowmen adopt a sitting posture outside, still in a semi-crouching posture, and the archers adopt a standing posture inside, so as to carry out surround shooting and comprehensively defend against the approaching enemies at close range. Behind them is the infantry array, ready to attack at any time.
Kill the enemy!
The final flying formation is actually a requirement for martial knights and charioteers.
Warrior knights require proficiency with bows and horses. The highest level is to be able to shoot at moving targets on the back of a galloping horse. Almost all those who can do this become generals. Needless to say, this goes without saying.
As for the chariot soldiers, it is much more exciting. As one of the most powerful arms during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the chariot soldiers themselves are already known for their powerful charge and attack capabilities. In this case, it is better to match the chariot with
The crossbowman has become a mobile firepower point.
Soldiers who are good at bows can use bows and arrows to shoot rapidly in all directions, and with the many arrows equipped on the chariot, they don't have to worry about missing arrows at all. Soldiers who are good at crossbows can also use crossbows to shoot quickly and can penetrate armor. Although
Not as accurate as a bow but does more damage.
Of course, it would be even more exciting if the heavy crossbow could be fixed on the chariot!
It's like a machine gun mounted on an off-road vehicle. It gets out of the car and follows the wind as fast as rain. It comes and goes as fast as flying. It specializes in fighting all kinds of enemies and breaking through all kinds of arrays. Wherever it goes, it is invincible! It only makes people think big.
Scream happily!
It can be said that the various military services in the Great Qin Empire underwent rigorous training and coordinated drills, and their overall combat power was extremely fierce, capable of making any enemy tremble with fear! And the Great Qin Crossbowmen who attack, defend, and fly are the reason why the Great Qin
An important unit that can dominate the world and sweep across the world!
Therefore, after Ying Zige determined to rebuild the Qin Dynasty, based on the records in the inheritance and the crystallization of his personal wisdom of thousands of years, he started relevant preparations early, whether it was the design of the crossbow in the arsenal or the selection of soldiers and generals.
Drilling, isn't it like this? It's just
In the past, whether Meng Wu or Meng Hu and others only learned from records, they were still lacking in experience when it came to unleashing the true capabilities of Qin's crossbowmen. Although Meng Tian had experienced it personally, his strongest ability was still commanding cavalry.
The use of the three formations of crossbowmen is also unsatisfactory.
Only after Wang Jian was resurrected, as one of the four generals of the Warring States Period, and a peerless general who led the Qin army of 600,000 to sweep across Chu, the use of the three formations of bows and crossbows seemed to be engraved in Wang Jian's bones, and he was so good at it. Even if
Nowadays, there are no more chariot soldiers, but this does not prevent Wang Jian from using them, and he can even use them in combination with cavalry.
"General Xu Rong, can you come forward and continue?!" After the army was arranged under the city, Wang Jian slowly rode his horse to the front of the army. He looked up at Xu Rong standing on top of the city from about two arrows away.
, his expression gradually softened, and he shouted loudly.
"No need to say more!" Xu Rong, who was standing silently at the top of the city, listened to Wang Jian's voice in his ears. His expression moved slightly, and he pondered for a while, then looked down at Wang Jian below the city, and said in a deep voice, "You and I are fighting.
We are relatively familiar with each other's temperament in the field. Now what you want to say is like a mirror in my heart. If you want me to lead the army to surrender, then speak with strength."
"Wang Jian, you were guarding Xicheng before. Although you only had more than 10,000 new soldiers and surrendered your troops, you still blocked Xicheng's 30,000 elite troops due to the favorable location of Xicheng. I am convinced by your ability to defend.
.However, it is not enough to make someone surrender with just one point. Now when attacking and defending a different place, although you still only have an army of 10,000, the number of my army is
The morale is also far worse than before. Compared with the danger of Yicheng, Pingyang County is a world of difference. Under such circumstances, as long as you can break through the gate of Pingyang County within three days, someone will be as good as you
I wish to immediately give the order to surrender and leave the formation at your disposal. However, if you are unable to attack, how dare you open up a way out and let me lead the troops to leave? What do you think?"
"You've made a good calculation!" Wang Jian looked calm and smiled lightly at the deputy general beside him. "Everyone knows that Xu Rong has a resolute heart and is the most stable person. However, judging from what he said, regarding defeat at the hands of a certain person,
Even though he was convinced with his mouth, he didn’t think so in his heart! It’s just that
The man's ability is indeed very good. If he can be taken under his command, it will not be a bad thing for the great cause of our great Qin Dynasty in the future. What's more, his prestige in the Xiliang army is also extraordinary. If he can be taken under his command, I think it will be a good thing.
It will also be of great help in capturing Chang'an and subduing the Xiliang army!"
After the words fell, Wang Jian felt certain in his heart. He looked up at Xu Rong on the city and shouted loudly, "I naturally believe in your credibility. Since General Xu dares to propose such a bet, Wang Jian should accompany him to the end!"
After responding to Xu Rong, Wang Jian stopped talking nonsense, waved directly to the generals around him, and shouted in a deep voice, "Follow the previous arrangements! Prepare to attack the city!"
"I will obey your orders," the deputy general and others said solemnly.
