Chapter 780: Modern infantry formation

In the early morning, the dazzling but not hot sun fell on the running figure of the knight.
They gathered together like a torrent of soldiers rushing to the distance, with red lotus flags standing on it.
Accompanied by the rumbling of horseshoes, Zhao Shi led his cavalry to kill Hua Youwei who was camping in the front.
Three quarters later, traces of a large military camp were found.
The other party was in a hurry, but only destroyed the main wall, and from time to time some pots, pans and pans dropped.
"It looks like we are about to see our friends."
Zhao Shi smiled lightly and urged the white steed under him again, speeding up and killing along the trail.
Since ancient times, the white horse is unknown, and few generals have used pure white horses, but it doesn't matter to Zhao Shi, he is happy to attract more enemies.
In another two quarters of an hour, the horizon is densely packed, and the tens of thousands of troops waiting in full battle can already be seen clearly.
When the Blood Sea Cavalry was approaching Shili, they stopped and formed a group. The tens of thousands of troops were stacked in formation, with strong morale and a strong fighting spirit.
In addition, they chose a small hill as their camp, which could slightly slow the cavalry charge.
"stop!"
Two miles away, Zhao Shi ordered the cavalry under his command to stop, and the scouts scattered in all directions. The people got off the horse and seriously fed their partners with water and food to restore their physical strength to their peak state.
He didn't have the idea of ​​using cavalry to attack the tight infantry position, just staring lightly at the scene of the flag joint camp in the distance.
Anyway, as long as Hua Youwei's army of more than one hundred thousand is here.
In the center of the tight army formation, Hua Youwei's expression was sullen: "Mingfeng, Wei Tianyang and the others may come later. Is it possible that the infantry will continue to advance under the cover of 15,000 cavalry? Just like us. It’s the same for the cavalry."
The people around him understood what he meant.
It is to let the infantry continue marching at a slower speed. If the blood sea cavalry does not come, forget it. Once they come, let them attack the infantry position first. When they are halfway into the infantry position, the cavalry will suddenly strike out and intercept the cavalry. Retreat.
"I'm afraid it won't work."
Ming Feng said with a distressed expression: "Our army still has a certain possibility. The more than 50,000 troops who are working hard may not be able to achieve this level."
As soon as he said this, Hua Youwei was silent and no longer insisted on his own ideas.
He also knows the combat effectiveness of the big cadres. There are many generals and soldiers inside, between regions, and hostility towards them, the Great Immortal Alliance empires. I am afraid that they cannot make such difficult military moves.
As for abandoning the 50,000 large army, this is impossible.
Dagan is an important ally of the Great Immortal Alliance Empire. If you don't plan to let this alliance break now and lose the help of more than 200,000 troops, it is best not to confuse your allies in such a blatant way.
The two sides confronted each other in this way, and now the speed at which the two sides' reinforcements will arrive will determine the battle.
If the reinforcements of the Great Immortal Alliance Empire came first, Zhao Shi would have to give up the more than one hundred thousand troops and seek other ways instead.
If the reinforcements of the Blood Sea Immortal Alliance arrive first, there is a great chance of swallowing these 100,000 soldiers.
Zhao Shi seemed very confident about the mobility of the army.
After four hours, Hua Youwei's face became ugly.
In the distant horizon, a swarm of soldiers holding blood-colored lotus flags swarmed and quickly filled the ground. Each soldier was wearing armor. The actions seemed to be scattered, but twelve people gathered at random all the time. , Very smoothly.
The only comfort is that these infantry soldiers are only 40,000, far less than the more than 100,000 troops on their side.
Hua Youwei encouraged the following players: "We are crowded, and the other three armies are coming, as long as we can hold on for one day."
"When all the 600,000 troops arrive, we will be able to wipe out Zhao Shi here, retake our Cangqing Realm, and return to our homeland."
All the players said in unison: "Yes, we will win."
Oh oh oh!
After a short break, amidst the melodious horns, the soldiers of the Forty Thousand First Army took the initiative to attack the 100,000 soldiers who were waiting in front of them.
"put!"
The sound reinforcement of the crossbow in the infantry position of the Great Immortal League blared, and there was no trebuchet, because the ancient army’s transportation capabilities could not transport heavy stones with them, and could only be mined and used on the spot, which was difficult to use in field battles.
Players' troops all attach great importance to long-range power, and more than a hundred bed crossbows are launched together to cover the infantry formation of the blood sea fairy alliance.
puff!
"what!"
The crossbow arrows with the thick arms of the baby were shot from a distance of 300 meters away, with great power. When they hit a person, they would often smash them with their shields and kill three or four people.
When it hit the ground, it shot a deep hole into the ground, leaving only the palm-length tail shaft trembling.
A wave of crossbow arrows rained down, but only two dozen people were lost, and the hit rate was less than one-tenth.
"what happened?"
Ming Feng frowned and stared at the result passed back by the scout player.
According to their experience in combat, the bed crossbow that cost a lot of manpower and material resources should be able to kill three or four people with one shot, and a hundred crossbows can kill at least three hundred people, making it a battalion that has never seen artillery bombing. The soldiers and horses lost their will to fight and collapsed directly.
But he quickly understood.
"This is not the intensive battle formation of the cold weapon era, or even the battle formation of the musket era, but it is somewhat like the battle formation of the post-installation rifle era."
Hua Youwei glanced at the real-time live broadcast sent back by the scout players, and wondered: "They are so scattered, aren't we afraid that our infantry will rush them away?"
War in the Cold Weapon Age is different from war with firearms. Soldiers can mostly only attack people around them, so the denser the infantry battle formation, the stronger the combat effectiveness.
The scattered infantry battle formation in the Cold Weapon era is almost the same as direct surrender. Even the leaders of the refugee rebel army know how to fight with more.
The Great Immortal League Empire has it, and of course there is also the Blood Sea Immortal League, and because they can mobilize the grassroots people, they can make more and more armed.
Crunchy~
On the two-meter high platform that the cavalry had set up in advance, the sound of the three hundred crossbows blasted in unison, reaching the position of the one hundred thousand army, making all the soldiers pale, and the forefront of the team even appeared. Many signs of fleeing.
As those who often use bed crossbows to participate in warfare, they know what this sound is and what kind of terror it will bring.
In the past, they used the crossbow to deceive others, but now it is their turn to bear it.
"put!"
The thunder was normal, and three hundred baby crossbow arrows with thick arms shot at the strict infantry positions of the Great Immortal League Empire. Most of the crossbow arrows hit, and the shield, iron armor, and flesh and blood were shattered.
The neat infantry formation instantly turned into a pile of minced meat, and blood splashed on the soldiers on all sides, bringing a strong sense of blood.
