Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As soon as it got dark the next day, all the soldiers got up early to eat and prepare for fear of being disturbed.

    After eating and tidying up, the army was divided into various groups and continued to move forward.  Li Zhe organized his elite troops and patrolled along the road, always ready for battle.  Unexpectedly, the cavalry was nowhere to be seen again.

    The brigade moved forward slowly, heading towards the enemy.  At noon, we finally saw the enemy.

    From the wide wilderness, a few rangers appeared first, spreading a large loose net and covering it from the front.  When they got close, they were only cruising around the outside. It was obvious that they had suffered the loss of the crossbowmen yesterday.

    Then, after the cavalry, the infantry of the brigade appeared one after another, and under the cover of the cavalry, they slowly formed a formation.  This army was indeed the subordinates of Liu Biao in Jingzhou. The armor and weapons they wore were only stronger than those of Cao Ren. Some of them were actually wearing iron armor.

    A piece of iron armor costs dozens or hundreds of kilograms of iron. This is a luxury equipment that Li Zhejun does not have today. Most of the other princes only wear it for generals with more than a hundred men.  It seemed that Jingzhou's wealth was well-deserved. Li Zhe looked at it from a distance, feeling surprised in his heart.

    Xu Shu came up beside him and said:

    "Liu Jing's rise to power did have some tricks. He treated the scholars well, established education, and prospered the economy. Every wealthy family in Jingzhou had a large number of blacksmiths who had fled from the Central Plains, and they produced a large number of iron armors for the army. In addition,  In the past many years, except for the feud with Jiangdong, Jingzhou has had no military force. This Jingzhou army is the most well-equipped among the princes today."

    Li Zhe nodded and praised:

    "Haha! Yes, Liu Jingsheng is indeed extraordinary. He has worked hard to make a living for the people for nearly ten years, but he has gained a lot of fat!" Looking back, he and Xu Shu looked at each other and smiled.

    While talking and laughing, Li Zhejun's soldiers from all the battalions were spread out. Under the prying eyes of the surrounding enemy cavalry, they were still following the rules unhurriedly. Each Qu Junhou shouted loudly and ordered his men to move slowly.  Spread out into square formations.

    Because of the lack of equipment, most of the militiamen were spearmen. The ratio of spearmen to crossbowmen in the formation reached an astonishing four to one ratio.  One by one, each of the five hundred people was arranged in units of Qu, with internal crossbows and external spears arranged neatly, forming huge phalanxes.

    At this moment, the hard training every day has now turned into mechanical and uniform movements. Under the command of the military prince, every militiaman in the square has become an ordinary member of the square.  , numbly obeying the orders of the military lord.  Changing direction, lining up, moving forward, moving like an arm with fingers, every movement is meticulous, even extremely rigid.

    Wenpin, the general of the Jingzhou Army, was on the opposite side, watching the change from a distance and feeling shocked.

    "Have he ever seen such a military formation? When marching, thousands of people are like one person, and they are surrounded by enemy troops and change their formations without any hindrance.  Seeing that the long snake formation was separated into square formations bit by bit, the army of thousands of people changed formations without even being scattered.  Although their movements seemed cumbersome and sluggish, the discipline and control of this team were unprecedented in his life.

    For a while, he couldn't tell what the enemy's combat strength was, and he couldn't give a clear conclusion based on his many years of military experience. This was completely different from the way the two armies fought during the entire Three Kingdoms era at this time, and it completely subverted his war strategy.  Based on experience, this shock is inevitable.

    But even so, Wenpin was not afraid.  Since ancient times, there has been no reason to just ignore the battle in this battle formation. If the battle can be won by just putting up the formation, then everyone does not need to fight with each other. They can just practice formation changes. How can this happen?  There are thousands of subtle changes on the battlefield over thousands of years.  In a battle between two armies, swords and guns will ultimately do the talking.

    Wenpin had full confidence in the elite soldiers he had personally trained, otherwise he would not have gone north to Nanyang to seize Cao Cao's territory.  Even if the enemy is Cao Cao, he still dares to fight against the enemy. What's more, it's just a civilian army without armor, so what's the point of a mere crossbowman?

    He looked forward, raised his right hand high, and with the generals behind him, the flag began to change orders frequently. As he waved his hand, the horn sounded, and the Jingzhou Army was the first to attack.

    Woo¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    Amidst the long horn sound, the rangers gathered into two, sandwiching Li Zhejun's formation on the left and right sides, moving slowly, looking for opportunities to attack.

    On the front, the Jingzhou Army's five hundred armored infantry began to advance slowly, followed by a thousand sword and shield soldiers.  While marching, the armored soldiers clashed with each other, making a shocking sound.  From the beginning, Wenpin felt that he had a strong army here. These five hundred elite armored soldiers were astonishing. They were like a huge hard hammer in his hand. With one blow, even a hard body would be destroyed.Damn it, the winner will be decided in a short time!

    In the army here, Li Zhe is holding a telescope and looking at it from a distance.

    "Not bad, not bad! Five hundred iron armors, which are very valuable. Go ahead and order the first formation of strong crossbowmen to put the enemy at a distance of fifty meters before firing!" He finally felt a little uneasy.

    No!  The communications soldier quickly took out the walkie-talkie, adjusted the frequency, and issued orders to the various military commanders in the first formation below.

    Afterwards, the six square formations of the first wave began to adjust before the battle. Looking at the enemy troops pressing forward, the spearmen in the front row slowly squatted down and pressed the barrels of their guns with their calves, holding on with fear in their hearts.  Cold sweat broke out in their hands, and the strong crossbowmen checked the tightened bow strings in their hands and the crossbow arrows ready to go from time to time. Only the cold light could help alleviate the fear in their hearts.

    "Brother Yanzi! My hands are sweating so much that I can't hold the barrel of the gun. What should I do?" The militia brother said something anxiously while trying hard to hold on to the barrel of the gun. His voice sounded a little loud when he said this.  trembling.

    But Brother Yanzi ignored him. He held a long knife in his hand and walked past the rows of soldiers arrogantly.

    "Steady, steady! Just practice how you usually practice now. This is just a small battle. I know the virtues of the Jingzhou Army. They are very soft-hearted! I, Yanzi, am from Jingzhou. Brothers.  ! Even though they were riding horses and wearing iron armor, they were useless against the powerful crossbows in our hands. At that time, the spearmen brothers held up the formation, and the crossbowmen brothers fired indiscriminately. This group of Jingzhou soldiers  That's it! This armor is ours.

    We are the soldiers in the hands of the Heavenly Master!  His old man has added spells to everyone. Brothers, look back and see, is the Heavenly Master watching us from behind?  "

    Brother Yanzi started to encourage, and the sergeants¡¯ hearts that had cooled down suddenly became warm again. Looking back, on top of the tall cart at the rear, it wasn¡¯t the Celestial Master looking at everyone with his clairvoyance!

    Suddenly, an indescribable heat surged out from the chest and abdomen, and instantly rushed to the foreheads of the militiamen!

    The Heavenly Master is mighty!  Long live the Heavenly Master!

    I don¡¯t know where it started. At first it was just a sound, but later it became a piece of sound. In the blink of an eye, it was overwhelming, and the shouts of the militiamen resounded throughout the sky!
