He shook his head, and everyone understood what he meant. The square formation was all huddled, too rigid, and was beaten all over, and there were almost no one who could not be destroyed.

Just like when officers and soldiers encounter bandits in the field and Tartars, they all form square formations, and many of them are still in chariot camps, but the news that comes is all defeated.

Han Daxia looked a little dazed, as if he was thinking about something. He said: "If you encounter an enemy in the wild, you can only win by forming a large formation, infantry and cavalry on both wings."

Master Jiu shook his head and said, "Such officers and soldiers are all elite soldiers who dare to fight, and they can win any formation."

Yang He nodded. The most orthodox and effective way to fight in the field is, as Han Daxia said, infantry is in the middle and cavalry is to cover the two wings, which can attack or defend.

But there is a prerequisite for this: there are many cavalry and they must be very powerful.

In the early Ming and Ming dynasties, there might be many such formations, but to now, even if there are many officers and soldiers, when encountering enemies on the plains, whether bandits or Tartars, they basically form square formations and hide in the formation and dare not come out.

The reason is very simple. The officers and soldiers' cavalry team could not defeat the opponent, and their wings were swept away, which could not achieve the purpose of covering the middle infantry.

After coming down again and again, the Ming army is now traveling. Even if there are cavalry in the army, they will retreat into the formation and wait until the infantry wins, and then go out to pursue them.

It’s a pity that few infantrymen of officers and soldiers have won now, so the advantage of the cavalry of each army is only used to escape compared to infantry soldiers.

The same is true for Yang He now. There are fewer soldiers and even fewer horses. It’s okay to encounter small groups of enemies. You can place the cavalry team on the flank cover and find opportunities to attack.

But if you encounter a large number of enemies, especially if they have more horses, you can only protect your cavalry team in the formation.

What comforted Yang He was a little bit of that was that his infantry was still very strong.

Shaking his head, Yang He said, "We have to eat one bite at a time. We have few soldiers and few horse teams now, but there will always be more... So, when we go to Suining, we will have to bother Jiu Ye to explore the relationship between the thieves. Can any thieves come to Suining? How many people are there? If you can eat, we will fight, find a good terrain, and destroy them in the wild. There are too many people, so if you can't eat, we won't fight, just guard the city."

Master Jiu clasped his fists solemnly: "This is the responsibility of Mr. Qian. Don't worry, my husband, and I must find out clearly."

Everyone in the field looked solemn, and the storm was about to come and the wind filled the building.

Everyone also knew about the death of the three-sided governor Wang Qiaonian, as well as the fall of Guide, Chenzhou, Luyi, Bozhou and other places. Even Minister Yang, Qi Youxin, Yan Dezheng and others were quite sad when they heard the news of the fall of their hometown.

Everyone also heard that the large thieves were advancing eastward and besieging Suzhou, and they would continue to advance eastward without knowing that they would continue to advance eastward.

As the General Manager of Suining, Xianggong Yang will definitely go to Suining City soon.

Zeng Youyu was still smiling on his face, and a hint of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. Their sentry team was ignored.

Looking at the sky, Yang He was about to order to withdraw his troops when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the southern field.

After Jiu Ye joined, there were more horses in the village. Yang He also asked Jiu Ye to train several cavalry messengers, stationed in Xin'anzhuang and Jiaoshan Villa. When he heard the sound of hooves, he knew that it was the messenger coming from Xin'anzhuang, which should be conveying the news from Suining City.

Everyone looked at each other, and Yang He sighed in his heart: "It's still here."

In fact, when the month was mid-month, Gao Qifeng, the magistrate of Suining, had sent people to urge him several times. Now it is the end of the month, so we can definitely not delay any longer.

Sure enough, as soon as he returned to Xin'anzhuang, he saw the messenger from Suining City. It was a confidant concierge next to the magistrate Gao Qifeng, holding the magistrate's handwritten letter, saying that he had received news from the fugitives that the thieves were unable to attack Suzhou, and people successively entered Lingbi.
