In the early morning, the sun rose to the east, and the Qi army also came from the east, approaching the Liang army, which was lined up against Sishui, but was not in a hurry to fight.

By the Sishui River and in the Liang army formation, the soldiers saw that the Qi army was dispatched early in the morning, but now they could not come, and they felt strange.

In a small team in the front row, a soldier smiled and said, "We face the East and wait for a while. The sun is dazzling. We just fight against the sun, and our eyes will be very uncomfortable."

"At that time, whether it is archery or fighting, they will be affected, and they will really be able to calculate."

So that's it. The recruits who had only fought a few battles understood, but were a little worried.

This is the territory of Rencheng County, Yanzhou, Qi State. The Qi army troops who reinforced Yanzhou have been confronted with them for a day.

Now that the opponent has chosen to launch an attack in the early morning, he has made a clear plan. So if the fight starts later, will he lose?

"Don't worry, we must attack in a while." The sergeant said with a relaxed tone, "As long as we defeat them before the sun is dazzling, will it be?"

The recruits listened to the soldiers' encouragement, but they didn't know whether to believe it or doubt it, but their chief general "General Liang" was a general under the command of Li Envoy, and they were used to fighting wars. Perhaps, they could really deal with each other quickly.

After a while, the central army sounded drums. The soldiers listened carefully and understood what the military order was. Then the general shouted, and the soldiers said to their subordinates:

"Get ready to attack!"

"Listen to my orders, change formations as we move! Follow me!"

Amid the sound of drums, the Liang army infantry began to move forward slowly.

The long military formation moved, and it was extremely difficult to keep the formation uneven. Therefore, as we walked, the originally flat Liang army formation gradually became uneven.

Then there is "canine teeth intertwined", which seems to be in a mess.

Seeing that the Liang army was in chaos, and the sunlight gradually became dazzling, the Qi army was waiting for the Liang army soldiers to come and die.

But the approaching Liang soldiers gradually formed small conical formations, and then walked faster and faster, with their spears standing up and densely packed.

From a distance, it looks like moving small woods.

The Qi army archers immediately stepped forward and shot arrows at the approaching Liang army, and the Liang army archers also shot forward.

As they shot against each other, it was obvious that the Liang soldiers were marching and fell to the ground one after another.

But the soldiers still advanced, relying on their armor, they resisted the arrows with their arms in a row. There was no noise except for drums, footsteps, and the sound of armor leaves colliding.

Like hunting dogs, they approached their prey quietly without saying a word.

Although the recruits who were suffering from arrow rain had thick cloth armor on their bodies, they might not be seriously injured even if they were shot in the arrow, they were still uneasy when they looked at their companions who were occasionally shot in the arrow.

But seeing the sergeant with a small flag floating above his head walking in front, the left and right comrades with firm steps, the uneasiness in many people gradually disappeared.

We train every day, with superb skills, wearing strong and sharp legs, we will win, we will win!

Countless people thought about this, encouraged themselves, followed the soldiers in line, and formed special formations with other teams, advancing towards the dark enemy formation ahead.

The two-wing cavalry of Qi army wanted to test the attack and attack the Liang infantry who were placing out small formations to advance.

However, the Liang cavalry protected both wings, making it difficult for the Qi cavalry to act rashly.

The distance between the infantry formations of the two armies continued to shorten. Qi archers who shot many rounds of arrows successively saw that the enemy was close, turned around and retreated into the formation.

The central army of Liang's army sounded the sound of trumpets. In the Liang army's vanguard formation, soldiers at all levels who led their troops to advance knew that it was time to charge.

They immediately blew the bamboo whistle, and the whistle was harsh, causing countless soldiers to shake their spirits and hold the weapons in their hands tightly.

One after another, shouting sounded: "Wolf, wolf!!"

"Wolf" represents the charge formation "Wolf". The spearmen put down their spears, pointed their spear forward, and took steps to run. They practiced countless spear formation charges, and finally came in handy.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, everyone shouted loudly "Wolf!" and collided with a hike and charge on foot to enter the closely defended Qi army formation.

The spears intersect and stabbed at the living people. The heavily armored Liang army spear soldiers were not afraid of stabbing the spear in front of each other, but only paid attention to avoiding the head, and the spear in their hands directly stabbed at the enemy in front of each other.

This crazy fighting style of stabbing each other in person one-on-one directly shocked Qi soldiers.

The long axe soldiers mixed with the spearmen, relying on the cover of their companions' spears, raised their axes and rushed straight into the spear jungle in front of them, and chopped the dense spearmen of Qi in front of them.

The long axe soldiers also wore heavy armor, with cloth armor on the outside and ring-lock armor on the inside. They did not avoid spearheads and tried their best to chop the enemy soldiers.

When the axe is chopped down, you can use a barb to hook the human feet and hook the spear down.

As blood splattered everywhere, the long axe soldiers with spears on many sides of their bodies inevitably suffered casualties, but they forced the Qi army's spear "woods" to cut a gap.

The sword and shield soldiers who followed, led by their respective soldiers, shouted loudly "Pig!" and rushed into the enemy group along the gap.

"Pig" represents the squeeze (arch) formation "Pig".

The sword and shield soldiers also form a conical formation, pressing the shield in front or side, and then pushing one by one to transmit the force of the group to the front, like a wedge, and squeeze into the Qi army formation.

The soldiers at the front end were shields, not chopping people, or using shields to protect the formation flanks, and pushed forward with force, making the Qi soldiers with chaotic formation retreat one after another, and they could not stop them in a hurry.

The conical formation of sword and shield soldiers penetrated into the enemy group for twenty or thirty steps and suddenly separated to the left and right sides. The sword and shield soldiers waved the goose feather sword and launched a hand-to-hand battle with the densely packed soldiers around them.

The front of the Qi army formation was broken through by Liang soldiers and attacked sideways by Liang soldiers who broke into the formation. Without time to react, it became increasingly chaotic.

The spear soldiers who followed the sword and shield soldiers only stabbed forward with their spears, and there were long axe soldiers following them, specifically chopping the enemy soldiers, or hooking the legs of the people with an axe hook to hook the opponent down.

The first round of Liang's infantry charges in the field, forcibly tear apart the Qi army's infantry formation. The simple, rough, bloody Qi army, and inadequately prepared, began to collapse.

Behind the Liang army, ships on the Si Shui River and observers on high masts could see that the Qi army's infantry formation had been broken without using a thousand-mile mirror, and the trumpet was blown immediately.

Liang Sen, the chief general in the central army, saw that his "wolf ran and pig thrust" tactic did defeat the Qi army's infantry formation. He was very satisfied and ordered the cavalry to cover up and kill, drive away the Qi army's cavalry, and protect the flanks of the charge infantry.

He ordered the reserve troops to line up and move forward slowly.

In the reserve army, the spearmen walked slowly with their spears in hand, and the spear poles were raised, like a dense forest. Even if the war ahead was one-sided, they could not charge without ordering.

The moving forest slowly advanced, and the soldiers who broke the formation had defeated the Qi soldiers. When they heard the sound of horns behind them, they gathered together, just following the defeated soldiers instead of pursuing them.

The charge on foot and breaking the formation was consumed greatly by hiking. The brave pioneers of the formation, many of the hands and feet of the hands and feet began to get sore, and their physical strength was indeed insufficient.

Soon, the reserve army crossed these vanguards of the formation and approached the defeated Qi army who were gathering.

As the distance was closer, Liang Jun launched the second round of hiking charge.

The soldiers of the reserve army either held a spear or held a long axe and advanced quickly towards the Qi army. As soon as the two sides confronted each other, the Qi army that barely gathered was vulnerable and completely defeated.

The sun began to shine. Liang Sen squinted his eyes and looked to the east, ordering the cavalry on both wings to disperse the Qi army's cavalry and protect the outside of the battlefield.

"After the festival, this battle is really easy!" The generals almost cheered when they saw their victory. Liang Sen smiled: "Don't be careless, beware of the enemy's counterattack."

"They are still fighting back. The defeat is like a mountain. We have a thousand-mile mirror to observe the surroundings. The surroundings are empty. They can't even attack them if they want to attack them."

Liang Sen was thinking as he was talking.

Infantry formation assaults are limited by physical strength and must be carried out in batches in order to achieve short, powerful and continuous attacks.

This is the trick they have summarized after years of battle, and they have formulated targeted tactics and then continuously improved them in actual combat.

In short, to ensure a high success rate for infantry assault, at least the following three points must be done:

First, soldiers must have sufficient training and excellent equipment.

Second, specific formations (conical formations), as well as long and short soldiers (spear, long axe, knife and shield);

Third, a backbone (sergeant) with superb skills and courage and carefulness is required to form a formation and charge with soldiers.

The large amount of training carried out for this purpose, coupled with the trial of the sergeant system, and the infantry formation assault tactics are implemented, the effect is currently good.

You should know that during this expedition, more than half of the soldiers participated in the war were recruits. These soldiers had good training, but basically had not fought a few battles. It is indeed good to have such a performance today.

Some donkeys cries came from beside him interrupted Liang Sen's thoughts. He looked in the sound and saw a group of "donkey cavalry" attacking.

That's right, it's just riding a donkey. Because there are not enough horses, the cavalry can only ride a donkey for transportation.

But the task of these "donkey cavalry" is just to assist in the rounding up prisoners with infantry. After all, running on four legs is always faster than running on two legs.

The scene is just a bit funny.

Liang Sen looked at the defeated Qi cavalry in the distance and could only hope to capture more horses and replace all the donkeys as soon as possible.

If there are enough war horses, why do you think about infantry raid tactics?
