Vol 4 Chapter 4570: Fighting warrior with support

[Eastern Jin Dynasty Beifu Yiqiuba][]

Liu Daogui nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, our Beifu Army's heavily armored Changshu warriors form a formation to meet the enemy and focus on maintaining the battle line, but these Halberdier warriors of yours are wearing leather or mail armor. , the protection is reduced, but the agility is greatly increased. Combat must also be based on one-on-one close combat. To deal with the light swordsmen of the demon thieves, you need to use your halberds."

Having said this, Liu Daogui looked at Pei Fangming who was standing on the other side: "Fang Ming, your sword and ax hand needs to protect our archers this time, no problem."

Liu Zhendao is the son of Liu Yu's clan brother Liu Huaijing, that is, the child of the aunt who raised Liu Yu from childhood. He was born in Jingkou Laotie, so he can become an officer by joining the army. However, Pei Fangming came down from the south of Henan and fled to The northern refugees from Jingzhou who returned to the Jin Dynasty also joined the army. From a small soldier to a ruthless captain, they relied on their extraordinary martial arts and their military exploits in several years of battles. Even in Liu Daogui's army, they were outstanding. A famous warrior who performed particularly well in the Battle of Jiangling. He was directly promoted from centurion to school captain and specialized in training swordsmen and axemen.

Pei Fangming patted his chest: "In the past six months, my swordsmen and axemen have been training with Zhendao's halberders every day, just for this day. Don't worry, Brother Daogui. My swordsmen and axemen have given up their shields and use their hands. A broadsword or a long-handled battle ax is also for swordsmen who surpass the demon thieves in terms of blade length. They are used to fighting in teams of three or five. I am also a team of three here, working together to cooperate with the Zhendao brothers. The halberd men are both sparring and cooperating. If they really want to fight, they will attack with a halberd, a sword and an axe. With one or two shield hands to resist the defense, and take the opportunity to catch the enemy with fishing nets, it can be said that there is no disadvantage. "

Liu Daogui laughed: "Where did you find these netmen and shieldmen? I don't remember that I called you such people."

Pei Fangming smiled and said: "I don't know something about the expedition to the west. There are two to three thousand auxiliary soldiers and civilians in our army. Most of them are fishermen and boat workers along the river. They are short and thin. In the physical test, they are not as good as some strong and tall warriors." , so they cannot serve as soldiers, but their long life on the river has made them flexible. Even on a boat in the wind and waves, they can move freely, and holding bamboo rafts is a common thing. As for casting nets for fishing , that is what people have been able to do since they were young. Although they are handymen, many of them also want to go into battle to kill thieves and make achievements. Therefore, during the training of our combat sergeants, there are usually four to five hundred people. I often watch from the sidelines of the training ground and even make some gestures along with it.”

Liu Zhendao also laughed and said: "So we discussed it. All our melee sergeants hold weapons with two hands and have no protective gear or shields. The swordsmen of the demon thieves are extremely flexible. Once we fail to hit with our axes and swords, , it would be dangerous to step forward and stab them after getting out of the way, so we thought about finding some shield bearers to protect the fighting sergeants. It would be even better if we could trap the enemy with fishing nets and make them unable to move. .”

Liu Daogui laughed: "Yes, yes, in the previous fighting arena on the horse stage, there were people who specially used fishing nets to trap enemies, and our tactics for capturing immortal monsters also included casting nets to trap enemies. But you two young generals have carried this forward and turned it into a specialized unit. In this way, your combat team of three to five people, even if it is fully equipped and integrated with offense and defense, understand what you are asked to do."

Liu Zhendao and Pei Fangming looked at each other and said in unison: "We will do our best to protect the archer brothers, and we will not let the demon thieves attack them at close range."

Zhu Xiuzhi nodded excitedly and said: "With Zhendao and Fang Ming helping me, what do I have to worry about here? My brother can go forward fifty steps, no, thirty steps, no, twenty steps in front of the battle line." place, completely suppress the enemy's following troops and their archers. If you don't complete the task of blocking the shooting, come and see us!"

Liu Daogui nodded: "However, your formation cannot be dense, and there is no need for 3,500 archers to attack at once. The enemy will also attack in batches. There is no need to rush forward, with 500 or 70 archers advancing each time." A hundred people are enough, and the people standing should be spread out, don’t crowd together.”

Having said this, Liu Daogui looked at Liu Zhendao and Pei Fangming: "In total, you have a total of four thousand melee fighters, and about five hundred shield guards and fishnet soldiers. You don't need to take them all. Each time you go out, there are about two hundred people to guard the bows and arrows. Just use your hands. Remember, the formation cannot be dense. The archers should guard behind them. If there are demon thieves approaching, they can fight with a small team. If the archers take turns to withdraw, they should withdraw with them. The people in front should not exceed Thousands of people, more than five steps between people.”

Zhu Xiuzhi was a little surprised: "Why are they scattered so far apart? Aren't the archers' rapid-fire covering shots only within three steps, and the arrow rain covers the front line?"

Liu Daogui said seriously: "Because the land attack of the demon thieves is different from the enemy forces we have seen before. They are not the kind of battle style where they form a dense formation and then slowly advance forward. Instead, they will fight in groups of three or five people." A group of teams disperses forward and rushes forward. As they run, they will constantly change their route. UU Reading www.uuknshu.com does not follow a straight line, so it is covered with arrow rain. The lethality will not be too great, and there is no need to use arrow rain to cover it. Ordinary fighting is a waste of arrows.”

Zhu Xiuzhi frowned slightly: "If the enemy troops don't rush in in a dense formation, it will be difficult for us to shoot them to death, and we can't cover them densely. How can our archers function like this?"

Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "What I need is not how many enemy troops you shoot to death, but to prevent their follow-up troops from continuously reinforcing the front. Whether it is tanks or Dongman brothers, there are only more than 2,000 people. The enemy's number one The front line of the wave impact is probably more than 3,000 people. If there is a large-scale increase of troops in the future, the pressure on our front will be great. But if you can cause damage to the enemy troops in the back row and prevent them from joining the battlefield, then we will I have the confidence and certainty to repulse the first wave of enemy attacks. That’s it, Ah Zhi.”

Tan Zhi laughed: "Brother Daogui said it very well. Three thousand enemy troops can be completely resisted, but if it is more than five thousand, it is hard to say. So brothers archers, you don't need to kill many demon thieves, as long as Just make their follow-up unsustainable and join the battlefield on a large scale."

Liu Daogui nodded, looked at Liu Zhendao, and said in a deep voice: "Zhendao, Fang Ming, your troops must also be prepared, not only to protect the archers, but also to wait until the first wave of enemy offensive is over. You must prepare to replace Dongman and Chariot’s brothers to meet the enemy’s second wave of attacks, located on both wings.”
