Chapter 711 Changes in the battle formation

On the school ground, Lu Zheng rode on the horse, accompanied by Hua Yun, and saw his appearance wearing armor and a red tassel helmet, he looked very majestic. He could be said to have wiped out the aura of a weak scholar and turned into a general with a golden sword and iron horse.

Lu Zheng has always been very clear about his shortcomings. He has also made changes in recent years. On the one hand, he has worked hard to exercise his body, and more importantly, he has studied military books and secretly studied formations and tactics.

Especially recently, he has been thinking about the cavalry battle formations of the Northwest Army every day, and it has almost reached the point of becoming obsessed with devils. He knew in his heart that in the ancient cold weapons era, the rules of the world were not drawn up by justice and evil! Just like Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, is Qin the country the right side?

In the Yuan Dynasty after the Tang Dynasty, the nation immediately entered the Central Plains. Could it be that Genghis Khan was cruel and cruel, and he was also the right side?

Therefore, the only rule in this era is the law of the jungle. The so-called law of the jungle is the precepts of the weak, and the strong are respected. Therefore, Lu Zheng understood the so-called concept. The so-called great way is pale in troubled times! Lu Zheng wanted to be strong, and if he wanted to make a difference, he had to rely on the Nanfu Army.

If the Southern Prefecture Army is strong, it must be able to fight and good at fighting! The Northwest Army is undoubtedly one of the most capable troops in the world, and their combat power is only stronger than that of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry.

Lu Zheng fought with the Liaodong Iron Cavalry. Objectively speaking, if both sides were under the same circumstances, Lu Zheng would definitely be at an absolute disadvantage. This is beyond doubt. The elite six guards and twelve guards led by Lu Zheng at that time, Dakang's elite soldiers, Dakang's six guards and twelve guards, were all Dakang's hundreds of refining elite soldiers.

And now where can the Southern Prefecture Army under Lu Zheng compete with the Twelve Guards? Of course, Su Zhi still has elite soldiers, but the number of elite soldiers in this wave is not on the same order of magnitude as the Northwest Army, and the two sides have no basis for fighting.

A good wife cannot cook without rice. For Lu Zheng now, he can only use this opportunity in the north to hone his Nanfu army. If he can train the Nanfu army through the battle in the north, this will be Lu Zheng’s biggest gain!

"General Hua, the cavalry's wing attack is really flexible and changeable, which makes people unable to defend against, and it is really difficult to deal with!" Lu Zheng said, pointing at the two sides in front of him, one side was the light cavalry of the Northwest Army.

Seeing these light cavalry riding strong horses, these cavalry rushed down from the hillside with the help of horsepower. Facing the infantry waiting for battle, they were not in a hurry to charge, but used the cavalry's super high maneuverability to quickly draw the distance between the two sides to the range where the cavalry's bows exert their power.

Then the light cavalry marched around the infantry's battle formation at high speed, and the ejected feather arrows drew various strange arcs in the air that violated the laws of physics. The shields erected at the front of the battle formation could not stop the raging waves of the arrows. The generals of the infantry immediately commanded with flags, allowing the battle formation to spread quickly. The sword and shield hands protected the spearmen and the Mo Daojun quickly expanded like all directions. This feeling was like the original battle formation's scale had instantly increased by two or three times.

Seeing this scene, Lu Zheng secretly praised him because the scene in front of him reminded him of the bubbles that pouring beer was like pouring. There was not much beer, but the foam quickly expanded, and half a glass of beer could overflow after pouring out.

It is obvious that the opponent's infantry battle formation also has this mystery. The originally contracted battle formation can quickly expand when facing the siege of the ranger. The size of the battle formation expands by two or three times, causing the rangers surrounding the four sides to be caught off guard and drag some of them into the formation.

I have to say that this kind of tactic is very novel and more effective. Lu Zheng couldn't help but praise: "Okay, I didn't expect that infantry tactics have such a skill. What kind of tactics is this?"

Hua Yun said: "This formation is called the Heavenly Girl Scattering Formation. The formation was first created by the Northwest General. Back then, our Dakang Army defeated the Northern Yan Army, and this tactic has received extraordinary achievements!"

He paused and said, "Infantry vs. cavalry has been a difficult problem since ancient times. The great general created this formation of Tiannv scattered flowers back then. The beauty of using infantry coordination and rapid expansion of the formation has a good effect on the attack of light cavalry. Of course, even if the ultimate effect is achieved, the losses of the infantry side must exceed the cavalry. The cavalry can retreat quickly and not be completely trapped by the battle formation!"

Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Well, I can understand your drill. The situation on the battlefield is really changing too quickly, and the difficulty of this battle formation is also very high. In order to deal with the cavalry of Beiyan, Dakang really thought of many ways, and many brave and warlike Dakang men died!"

When Lu Zheng said this, his expression was quite moving. He was a human being forewarned for two lifetimes, but so what? In this era, in the rolling historical trend, he is still as small as dust.

What can he transform? Can he make airplanes and cannons? He can't change anything. The only thing he can do is to integrate himself into the times as soon as possible, learn from them, and absorb the experience of treasures exchanged by the ancients and ancestors with their lives and blood.

Lu Zheng's mind was filled with thoughts. He thought of the stories of powerful people who typing on the keyboard to depict modern people traveling to ancient times, typing across the battlefield, and even completely subverting ancient history. Only now did Lu Zheng know how nonsense those stories were weaving.

In this situation in front of you, what can even be used by top time travelers? The limitations of the times, the limitations of social productivity, people's thoughts, and the limitations of social systems. Can a person's weak power turn everything around?

On the battlefield, all of the tactics in the cold weapon era have been trained after thousands of temperings. Such a war is definitely not what TV shows. When the warring troops and horses confront each other, the main generals will fight. In front of everyone, the main generals of the two sides will fight to decide the outcome, and then the soldiers of both sides will overwhelm the West again!

Such a scene is absolutely nonsense in real wars. In addition, soldiers on both sides charge, and in fact, many soldiers are willing to rush to the front because the mortality rate of soldiers who rush to the front is not high.

Because when both sides rushed to the formation, the shooters of both sides were shooting, and the attack of bows and arrows was not a straight line attack, which was completely different from bullets.

The archers will raise the bow and shoot it into the sky, and then the arrows will draw an arc in the air. Such an arc can escape shields that are more than two meters high and directly kill the soldiers in the back row of the battle formation. In comparison, the soldiers in front are mostly unscathed.

Also, when the two sides of cold weapons fight, the cavalry will deliberately bypass the soldiers in front and break through directly from the middle. The purpose of this is to kill the bodies that will hinder the mobility of the cavalry and even block the way forward to charge. So from this perspective, the soldiers in front are actually very safe.

Also, in the confrontation of the Cold Weapon Age, the means of transmitting messages are actually very perfect. As written in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, once the enemy invades, the camp will be in chaos. No matter how many people the army is, it will quickly become a dog full of dogs like a broken family, and a mistake will be doomed.

Indeed, this possibility does exist, because the generals in this era do not have transmitters or walkie-talkies. Once the formation is in chaos, they may panic, which will lead to the rapid collapse of the entire army.

But in fact, any army has its own communication methods, which are composed of horns, flags, smoke, fireworks, etc. The wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated. With this method, most of the time, the large brigade of soldiers will not panic quickly because of sneak attacks, resulting in defeat.

Hua Yun is undoubtedly a powerful master. He did not hide his own personalities in front of Lu Zheng, and showed the most elite methods and battle formations among the Song three armies one by one. But if Lu Zheng asked, he would definitely know everything!

After reading this exercise, Lu Zheng said, "Song San has indeed obtained the true teachings of Song Naifeng. It's a pity that Song Naifeng only has the eldest son in his heart, and he does not have the concubine son. Otherwise, today I, Lu Zheng, would not have such an opportunity to understand our Northwest Army so deeply!

Hua Yun, those who are good at fighting, those who can fight, I, Lu Zheng, will definitely not treat you badly! Your horses are not enough, I, Lu Zheng, have the ability to make up for you. If you don’t have enough people, I, I, will make up for you too!

Now for us, we are facing Song Naifeng, who has as many as 100,000 cavalry in his hands! How should we fight against an aggressive enemy? One thing is certain, that is, if we sit and wait for death, the ending will inevitably be miserable!

But can we take the initiative to attack? It is certain that it is very difficult to take the initiative to attack. It is probably difficult to operate in almost every ten years!"

Lu Zheng said this, but Hua Yun did not dare to underestimate it, because he knew that Lu Zheng was a legend in the northwest back then. Song Wensong mentioned Lu Zheng more than once, and said it clearly that if it were not for Lu Zheng, Song Wensong would not have the courage to stand alone. Under the high pressure of the Song family, he could have an army himself, and this army could also cross many mountains and enter the pass, cross the pass, even occupy the capital.

Can Song Wensong pay so much attention to and admire him so much be ordinary people? Hua Yun received a secret letter from Jiangnan for three consecutive days. Song Wensong clearly told him in his heart that their life was on Lu Zheng Mountain, and that Hua Yun and others must obey Lu Zheng's arrangements. Otherwise, everyone's lives would be difficult to protect!

In this case, no one dares to challenge Lu Zheng's authority. In times of crisis, Lu Zheng has the absolute authority to control the army, which is the basis for him to turn the world around.
