Chapter 361 The First Battle of the Eighth Battalion in the West Garden (2)

Bao Hong's mobilization was obviously seen by Hu San, but Dong Buyi never stopped here. Instead, when the marching slowly, the left and right wings changed. The original "One"-shaped linear military formation gradually formed the "h" shape, which is a variant of the goose-shaped formation and a variant of the Spanish infantry phalanx. It is only because the linear military formation used by Hu San is not deep, and four bow and arrow phalanxes cannot be set up at the four top corners of the main military formation. This is why the "h"-shaped military formation is used, so that the left and right wings can bow and shoot light cavalry that disturbs the formation.

The range of the cavalry bow is a little worse than that of the stair bow. Without the support of stirrups, the Mercedes-Benz speed is not fast enough. Even if it rushes to the formation, the impact force is much worse. The strict Han infantry army formation can defeat the same number of cavalry, which has been verified in countless battles with the Huns in the Han Dynasty.

Bao Hong led two thousand cavalry to Hu San for two hundred steps, and a general ran out with a horse spear.

"A thief dares to fight with grandpa-"

"Boom boom boom..."

Countless soldiers with shields and spears ignored the armored generals who called war, and still walked forward with the small drum soldiers beating their waists...

"Cowardly thief--"

"You dare to fight—"

...

"Two hundred steps...one hundred fifty steps...one hundred steps."

"boom!"

As the flag bearer swung, hundreds of drummers stopped beating the drums at the same time, and hundreds of people posed bows at the same time. Sun Qian, who was roaring proudly, saw this scene and was so scared that he turned his horse's head and was about to run away...

"The thief is shameless..."

"Buzz--"

Hundreds of people followed Sun Qian at the same time and pulled the bow and shot archery. A one-on-one challenge? Dong Buyi has not had the word "one challenge" since his establishment. If you must say that there is one, it is also a group of them who fight against the enemy one by one.

Hundreds of soldiers came forward and shot one arrow. One hundred people shot one arrow, and more or less, could shoot one or two arrows. However, the distance of a hundred steps was still farther. One person's straight-pull bow was still unable to shoot through Sun Qian's iron armor, but his war horse was in trouble. After being shot two arrows, although he failed to shoot the war horse to death, he also threw Sun Qian off the war horse due to injury pain...

"asshole--"

Looking at his favorite general who fled back in panic, Bao Hong was furious and kicked the war horse suddenly, and did not fight alone in front of the formation. He turned his horse's head and ran towards the right wing where Hu San was. He was not stupid. If he led the cavalry to attack head-on, he would have to face the three-sided arrow shot in the shape of "h" shape, which was similar to the three-sided attack of the "v" shape formation of the goose-shaped formation. On the contrary, when attacking the two wings, the attacks suffered were much smaller.

"kill--"

Two thousand war horses were running, and their power was unparalleled. However, the Shanziying has been established for several years since the first year of Zhongping. They had fought several major battles with the Xiongnu and Xianbei. During regular military exercises, the Han army was galloping and approaching the pressure. Bao Hong only had two thousand cavalry, which was not as powerful as the Han army's cavalry, and even more so that the stormy power of the tens of thousands of cavalry in the Xianbei. How could it scare the 10,000 elite infantry leaders of Hu Sansuo?

As the two thousand cavalry rushed towards him, Hu San gave the order, and his right wing suddenly turned around, half an arc covered with a large iron shield placed on the ground, and the two thousand soldiers raised their high long bows at the same time.

"The angle of elevation is forty-five degrees——"

...

"shoot--"

"Buzz--"

As the flag bearer's small flag was directed down, two thousand arrows were illuminated by two thousand scattered cavalry, and hundreds of Han cavalry screamed and fell from their war horses.

"Cum again-"

"Buzz--"

Another round of arrows shot, and countless Han cavalry holding small cavalry shields fell into war horses again, and this time the result was obviously a little bigger.

"The angle of elevation is thirty degrees—"

"Cum again-"

...

"Flat shot—"

...

Although the longbow is made a little rough, it is not as accurate as the bows and arrows in the arsenal. It only requires the soldiers to pull a strong bow. Without stirrups, the cavalry can only rely on the strength of their arms if they want to pull the bow on the war horse. It is not as good as the infantry can use the strength of their waists and legs, and the range is much worse.

The arrows of the Han Dynasty were on the back, and were also hung on the waist and abdomen or on the war horses. However, the arrow pouch used was not a squeezed arrow pouch. Once it was too bumpy, the arrow would lose all its essence. The arrow pouch used by Dong Buyicon was a squeezed arrow pouch. No matter how bumped it was, it could ensure that the arrow would not fall.

Dong Buyicong is like a lonely child. He basically does not contact others or lets others touch his own things. Few people realize that Dong Buyicong's arrow pouch is different. Just like Dong Buyicong's war horses all have two ugly trouser legs strangely. Everyone just thinks that this is Dong Buyicong's tradition and characteristics, but they don't pay attention to the stirrups hanging in the trouser legs. Of course, if it were not for war, Dong Buyicong's cavalry did not hang stirrups, and would only hang before the war. If there is any loss of war after the war, the stirrups will be taken back from the horses that died in battle, thus reducing the probability of others discovering it.

But no matter what, if others consciously investigate it, they can still find clues. The key is that others only see Dong Hu's cunning, but do not delve into the differences between the weapons used by the army.

If the two armies charge head-on, they can usually only shoot three waves of arrows, and sometimes they may only shoot two waves. However, specially trained archers are not "usually" in the case of "double". For example, Dong Hu can shoot five arrows in one breath, and most of his followers can shoot three arrows in one breath. The main trick is to draw out two or three arrows at one time, bite a special arrow in your mouth, and draw out two or three arrows at one time. It is not to turn two or three arrows at the same time, but to shoot out one by one. This shooting method can reduce the time for drawing out arrows one by one.

Continuous shooting requires a long time of training, but this will consume the archer's great physical strength. The arrow shooting without any haste may be able to shoot against someone for half a day, but if you shoot continuously, after a quarter of an hour, your arms will be like your own, but no matter what, such archers are elite archers.

Usually, the two armies can only shoot three arrows and collided together, but Bao Hong obviously did not attack strongly, but was wandering and harassing, sometimes staying away, sometimes approaching a stance to attack, and he could not help but test the loopholes of the 10,000 square meters of soldiers and horses, hoping to use momentum to let Hu San reveal his flaws. This is also a classic and effective tactic for light cavalry to fight infantry, but he chose the wrong opponent. If it were the Yellow Turban Army in the first year of Zhongping, Bao Hong would use this tactic, even if he defeated tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, would it be uncommon for Hu San?

"kill--"

The army repeatedly broke down, but the army formation, which seemed to have only six rows, shot arrows and threw stones in an orderly manner without any wavering. There was no sign of panic. Bao Hong walked around from the right wing to the back of the formation, and then detoured the left wing, in front of the formation... After three rounds, he lost hundreds of cavalry, but he had no results in no way. When he walked around the right wing led by Hu San again, he finally couldn't hold back and wanted to attack once.

Countless iron cavalry held a disk-sized cavalry shield and charged with horse lances, which was similar to the three thousand heavy armored cavalry led by Dong Chong, but the cavalry and horse lances were much smaller. They were far from the water drop-shaped cavalry used by heavy armored cavalry to protect half of the body, nor were they heavy cavalry guns that were six meters long.

"Flat shot—"

Seeing that Bao Hong finally couldn't hold back, Hu San roared and countless arrows shot out.

"Raising the shield--"

The giant shield that was originally placed in front of him picked it up again.

"Spout--"

"Buzz--"

The heavy-throwing spear is extremely lethal. Unless it is pressed against a heavy shield, it can pierce and nail it to the ground without stirrups. Even if the round small cavalry shield blocks the heavy-throwing spear, it will knock people off the war horse due to the huge impact force.

"Puff" sounds continued, and in an instant, screams in front of the formation came one after another. The soldiers who were pierced by heavy spears, the war horses that were smashed to the ground with spears, the collision and trampling were shrill, despair, and the charging cavalry formation was in chaos...

"Pushing the array—"

"kill--"

"Boom boom boom boom--"

...

Countless infantry holding shields actually pushed back and forth, and the two sides collided violently as soon as they fought, but the cavalry that had lost their speed were pierced by countless spears that suddenly stretched out, and screams came one after another...

"Hurry gong...Hurry gong--"

Even Jian Shuo, who didn't know anything, knew Bao Hong's danger after seeing the encircled and chaotic cavalry, how could he remain calm?

"quick!"

"Use the Yuli Formation!"

After Hu San's right wing resisted the strongest collision of Bao Hong's cavalry, taking advantage of the chaos of the cavalry, the two thousand infantry originally fought against the same force of two thousand cavalry, but after blocking the chaotic Bao Hong, he launched a strong attack instantly. A small army with each five people was repulsing into the chaotic Han cavalry. At the same time, although the central army led by Li Kan was still targeting more than ten thousand Han soldiers a mile away, when Bao Hong attacked Hu San's right wing, two or three thousand infantry approached each other with long bows, covering the high elevation angle to shoot the cavalry behind Bao Hong, and shooting the fleeing Han army in all directions. The Han cavalry was even more chaotic, and there were many injured and storming themselves.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Ye was not hesitant and grabbed Jian Shuo's collar and roared.

"Just use the Yuli Formation to rush forward, it will be too late to go-to-"

The Yuli Formation can be attacked or defended. If it is held, the chariot will block the periphery, prevent the cavalry from forcing the forcibly attacking the formation, slow the enemy's attack as much as possible, and create as difficult an attack for the enemy as possible. The chariots on the periphery are like a temporary city wall.

When the Yuli Formation attacked, it was the coordinated military formation of insurgents, which was like the later tanks and chariots charged forward, and the infantry followed closely behind. The more advanced ones were five soldiers behind the chariot, and ten men and one small military formation cooperated with each other. However, this kind of insurgents cooperated with each other often turned into a charge, using the powerful impact of the chariot to tear the enemy's defense line.

Zhu Ye was indeed an experienced general. Although Bao Hong was in danger, he also restrained Hu San's right wing troops. Taking advantage of this time, as long as he tore up the central army led by Li Kan, the victory was still on his side. But he seemed to have forgotten one thing, that is, Bao Hong's troops were in chaos and danger. In front of the two armies, everyone saw clearly that their side was in danger, and this was a huge blow to the young birds who had just started to go to the battlefield.

But at this time it was during the battle between the two armies that Zhu Jun had wiped out the barbarians of Jiaozhou and the Yellow Turbans of Wancheng. At this time, everyone could only obey the command instinctively.

The war drums exploded, two or three hundred chariots roared, and countless people rushed to the battlefield hundreds of meters away. Just the chariots that everyone had high hopes for, could they really tear up Li Kan's defense line?

When the sound of roaring and yelling in the mountains and seas suddenly started, Hu San suddenly turned his horse to his war.

"The message is to Li Tong take over the right-wing combat power!"
