According to the established plan, the soldiers of the Shengjie Army were divided into two parts, with Su Jue and Su Haisheng as the main commanders, and prepared to attack at one end of the mountain cluster.
As soon as they heard the order, they quickly deployed in formation, quickly maneuvered to both ends of the road, and used their fastest speed to block the two roads in front and behind the surrounded Jin soldiers.
The entire tactic emphasizes speed, squeezing the Jin Army's strategic maneuver space as quickly as possible so that the Jin Army's cavalry loses the maneuver space they can use to maneuver around.
Without mobility and room for detours, the cavalry in front of a tight infantry formation was like a boxer who had drunk fake wine and could do nothing but boxing.
The soldiers of the Jin Army who were attacked were shocked when they heard the sound of war drums and shouts of death from all directions, and even tried to escape like headless flies.
Some were so frightened that they didn't care about riding horses and couldn't find the horses, so they threw away their legs and ran back.
Some were lucky enough to grab a horse and run back directly.
Some did not dismount at all and remained calm when faced with a surprise attack, trying to stabilize order. However, there were too few such people and they could not control the situation.
This cavalry was actually broken up.
But this is not the most desperate.
If they are fast enough, they can escape quickly.
Just like the many cases in the history of wars in the past two hundred years in which the cavalry were defeated but were able to escape smoothly, relying on the speed of the horses, they could avoid being surrounded and annihilated by the infantry.
However, the victorious army was faster than them and raced against time. They attacked decisively the moment the arrows sounded.
Su Jue and Su Haisheng were directly controlled by adrenaline. They blushed and led the troops to attack. They completed the formation as quickly as possible. The military formation quickly arranged from the foot of the mountain to the river bank, blocking the retreat and approach of the Jin cavalry.
The victory army's military formation has been improved after the optimization of weapons.
After Su Yonglin obtained a large number of divine arm bows and ordinary crossbows, his long-range strike power was greatly enhanced, so he optimized the military formation.
He used a row of sword and shield soldiers as the front row, standing at the front for defense.
Two rows of stocky and short spearmen came behind them. They inserted their spears into the ground at an angle of 45 degrees and extended them out of their shields. They squatted on the ground and held their spears tightly to prevent them from moving. They were intimidated so that the cavalry did not dare to rush into the formation rashly. .
These three platoons are not allowed to move without orders. Even if the earth is falling apart, they must stand firm and stay put. They must follow orders and prohibitions. This is the highest training indicator.
A row of flying musketeers squatted on the ground behind them. When the cavalry approached and tried to break the formation, they lit the flying muskets and stretched them out. After the flame spray was completed, they turned to stabbing, which was the main attacking unit.
In the rear are the ordinary crossbowmen, and then the divine arm archers.
When encountering an enemy attack, the God-Arm archers with longer range will be the first to fire their arrows, and the crossbowmen with lower range than the God-Arm bow will fire their arrows after that.
This was not the complete military formation that Su Yonglin imagined, but a simplified version, because the terrain at this time effectively helped him, so that the Shengjie Army only had to face attacks from one side of the Jin Army's cavalry, instead of attacks from all sides.
A complete military formation can be protected on all sides, with cavalry as an auxiliary on both wings. The most elite heavy ax troops who are not afraid of death must be set up in the formation. When the enemy's cavalry rushes to a standstill, they must suddenly rush out. The enemy cavalry group is unparalleled.
That is a powerful military formation that can defend and attack.
However, that was the decisive military formation that was needed to face the main force of the Jin Kingdom. In the current situation, the simple version of the military formation was enough.
Su Yonglin was at the highest point of the mountain, surveying the battlefield from a high position, and used drums, trumpets and flags to convey orders at any time.
All tactical instructions that may be used on the battlefield have been converted into drums, trumpets, and flags. The main training content of the Victory Army is these. The commander's orders are issued through drums, trumpets, and flags, and the army is responsible for executing them.
This part of the training contains a lot of content and is very demanding. The high-tempo battlefield requires quick reactions. Once there are problems with connection, it will cause instability in the military formation, which will be fatal.
But at the moment, it seems that the Shengjie Army does not have a fatal problem, only the Jin Army cavalry has a fatal problem.
The two military formations of the Shengjie Army blocked their retreat, and they shouted war trumpets and advanced step by step, moving closer to the center one after the other, compressing the maneuvering space of the Jin Army's cavalry.
The Jin cavalry lost their unified command and were frightened when they saw the Shengjie army with bright armor and powerful force appearing in front of them. They turned their horses and fled in the other direction.
After running for a while, they saw a military formation over there approaching them step by step, and they were immediately frightened.
Why are there military formations on both sides?
This is how to do?
climb mountains?
Impossible, there must be someone on the mountain.
Jump into the river?
Although the river flow is not fast, it is very deep and cannot be crossed even by horseback.
What to do?
The infantry on both sides are approaching, and the other two have no way out.
This is a dead place!
The Jin army, which had lost its command, was in a mess.
But the Shengjie Army had very strict command.
To be honest, it was the first time for Su Jue and Su Haisheng to command so many soldiers in a battlefield duel. Although they also had command experience, they had previously commanded hundreds of people to fight against a ragtag group of people, which could not be considered a real war at all.
This is the real battle battle.
Before the war, Su Yonglin told them that this was their first real command on the battlefield. They had the power to adapt to changes and needed to be responsible for the entire battle.
"This is the first time, but it will definitely not be the last time. I will use all the things I have learned before!"
Su Yonglin warned them like this.
Su Jue and Su Haisheng were both very nervous and excited. Their hearts were beating fast, their pores were open, fine beads of sweat oozed from their noses, and their eyes were bloodshot.
They could feel that the guards around them were also very nervous.
Everyone's breathing was rapid, their eyes were wide open, and their bodies were tense, as if they were about to go to the battlefield and fight hand-to-hand with the enemy at any time.
The guards next to them were all so nervous, and the shield soldiers and spearmen in the front row who faced the enemy would only become more nervous.
Everyone was very nervous and felt like their hearts were about to jump out of their throats.
But they know what they should do.
The drum sound representing the coach's order sounded, and both Su Jue and Su Haisheng heard it.
The two military formations stopped in unison and did not move closer to the center, leaving a space for the Jin army - mainly for the purpose of shooting bows and crossbows.
The Jin Army cavalry were frightened and didn't understand why, but Su Jue and Su Haisheng understood that they were in position.
Drums and horns sounded one after another.
The sword and shield players in the front row immediately put their large shields on the ground according to the training content, hid their bodies behind the large shields, and made a gesture of supporting the large shields with their entire bodies in preparation for impact.
The two rows of spearmen at the rear immediately squatted on the ground, inserted their spears into the ground according to the training content, stretched out their large shields with their pointed fingers upward, and attached bayonets to the large shields as a deterrent.
The rear row of flying musketeers squatted on the ground, holding the flying musket tightly in their hands. At the same time, they checked whether the fire hidden in the iron pipe hanging beside them was flammable. Once there was an order, they immediately ignited the powder cartridge hanging on the gun head and stepped forward to attack Jin. Military cavalry.
The shooting team composed of crossbowmen, crossbowmen and crossbowmen was extremely nervous waiting for further orders.
Compared with the chaotic scene at the beginning of the training, the whole process was quite fast and neat. Even Su Yonglin who was watching the battle felt that his army was performing exceptionally well.
This was not the case during training before.
There were many people who fell, tripped, bumped into each other, and the whole queue was in a mess.
For this reason, there have even been cases where guys wanted to fight.
Of course, the two people who almost got into a fight were forced to run around in circles until they were paralyzed by exhaustion under Su Yonglin's instructions. They were then forced to clean toilets and clean up feces for a month. After that, I heard that their relationship got better.
I don’t know if those two people can fight side by side now.
The relationship between cleaning toilets and picking up feces together must be very strong, right?
At a highly tense stall, such an inconspicuous thing suddenly flashed through Su Yonglin's mind.
Those two people were indeed fighting side by side.
