The opening of the Three Kingdoms inherits the bravery of the overlord of Chu

Chapter 113

Let’s talk about the Daqin Ruishi Camp in detail.

Although there was no concept of special forces in ancient China, there were many elites with super combat effectiveness. They left a great reputation in history. Among them, the troops of the Great Qin Dynasty performed particularly well. It is still awe-inspiring to mention it. This is Qin Guo Tie Ying Rui Shi.

Qin's Tie Ying Rui Shi was founded by Qin general Sima Cuo, with only more than 1600 people, but they made the enemy intimidated on the battlefield. It can often achieve unexpected effects with the smallest casualties, and become the well-deserved sword of the Great Qin.

At that time, the new army of Qin State was 20, but Tieying Ruishi had only 600 people, and half of them were from the former Killing God Baiqi Team of Thousands.And Wu Qi's Wei military soldiers had [-] soldiers at their peak, so judging from the number of Tie Ying warriors, the number of soldiers was very small, but it can also be seen that they were the elite of the elite, a powerful force selected from the best.

After the reform of the Qin State, the new army was born in the battle to recover Hexi, and was exclaimed by the world as the "sharp warrior".Sima Cuo used this name to create the Tieying Ruishi: the requirement to be better than Wei Wuzu when dismounting and fighting, and surpassing the knights of Zhao Qi and the Huns when riding on horses.

Sima Cuo was also extremely strict in the process of selecting Tieying Ruishi, the first thing is to pass the physical test.Back then Wu Qi trained the soldiers of Wei to hold a spear, carry twenty long arrows and a hard iron bow, and carry three days of military food, which weighed more than fifty catties in total. Immediately join the fierce fighters before they can be soldiers.

On the basis of the training of Wei Wuzu, Sima Cuo added full armor, a broad dagger, a refined iron dagger and a cowhide shield, with a total weight of about [-] catties. After physical training, you can enter the various competitions that follow.

In the infantry competition, it is required to be ranked first among all the infantry of the Qin Army's new army, and in the cavalry competition, it is also required to be ranked first among the cavalry of the Qin Army's new army.After passing the individual selection, you have to pass the battle with various formations and pass the martial arts competition with various weapons.After such a strict level of elimination, almost all those who can become iron eagle warriors are invincible warriors.

In 316 BC, Ba and Shu attacked each other, and both came to Qin for help.In the autumn of the same year, Sima Cuo led Tie Ying Ruishi to attack Shu from Shiniu Road, and fought with the Shu army in Jiameng. The king of Shu was defeated and fled to Wuyin. In October of the same year, the Qin army destroyed Shu.

In 286 BC, Sima Cuo led the Iron Eagles to attack Hanoi in the Wei State. The Qin Army defeated the Wei Army.

In 280 B.C., Sima Cuo led iron eagle warriors to attack Qianzhong County of Chu State from Shu. Qin State.

In the course of the battle, he led the iron eagle warriors to seize the camp and pull out the stronghold, invincible.The territory of the Qin State expanded greatly, with strong financial resources, strong soldiers and strong horses, and it was superior to other heroes, laying a solid foundation for the unification of the whole country.

As soon as the iron eagle warrior appeared, the armies of the six countries were eclipsed, especially in the battle to recover Hexi, which made the six countries frightened. Since then, the reputation of the Qin army has spread far and wide.These sharp fighters were originally powerful in combat, and after a long time in the battlefield, they have more experience in the battlefield. They are all talents. Later, Qin was able to successfully unify the six countries. The iron eagle sharp fighters contributed a lot and became the most legendary in the Warring States Period. of special forces.

The follow-up of Daqin Ruishi.

The Qin Dynasty was the first unified and centralized feudal state in Chinese history.Its military system was formed and developed on the basis of the reform of Qin State and Shang Yang during the Warring States Period.

The army of sharp soldiers in the Great Qin Dynasty was placed under the strict control of the emperor. The official in charge of the country's military administration was the Taiwei, and generals were appointed to lead the army at any time during wartime.

The army can be divided into three parts: capital soldiers, local soldiers and frontier soldiers.

The soldiers of the capital are mainly composed of Lang Guan, guards and soldiers guarding the capital.Lang Guan is commanded by Lang Zhongling, and guards are commanded by Weiwei, who are responsible for the guards inside and outside the palace.The garrison responsible for guarding the capital was commanded by a lieutenant.

Local soldiers are placed in counties and counties, and are generally commanded by county or county captains (also known as captains) to assist the county guards or county magistrates, maintain local law and order in peacetime, and listen to the dispatch of the central government in wartime.The recruitment of local soldiers must be based on the emperor's "Tiger Talisman".

The frontier soldiers are mainly responsible for the defense of the border counties.

The unified Qin Ruishi army is still divided into four basic arms: light chariots (chariot soldiers), material officers (infantry), knights (cavalry), and building boats (sailors).In general, the counties in the plains mostly train riding soil and light vehicles, the counties in the mountains mostly train training officers, and the counties along the river and sea mostly build building boats.

Although Qin Ruishi chariot soldiers are no longer the main body of the army, they are still an indispensable and important unit in the battle formation.There are separate formations for chariot soldiers, formations combined with infantry, formations combined with cavalry, and formations combined with infantry and cavalry at the same time.This shows that chariot soldiers can be used independently or in conjunction with other arms, and they are an important force in joint operations of chariots, infantry, and cavalry.

Chariot soldiers are mainly used for combat in plain areas. When attacking, they are used to rush into the enemy's formation and disrupt the enemy's battle formation; when defending, chariots are used as barriers to prevent or delay the enemy's impact; when marching, they are placed in the vanguard. And the two wings are conducive to ensuring the safety of the troops.

The chariots are all made of wood, with a single shaft and four horses—two mixed with two clothes.There were three soldiers in the car, the royal hand was in the middle, the left of the car was on the left, and the car was on the right. They were all wearing metal armor.Because the imperial hand controls the chariot and horse with both hands, the target is obvious and there is no power to fight back, so the protection is very tight. The armour of the armor is as long as the wrist, covering all the arms. There are gauntlets on the hands, neck armor on the neck, and neck armor on the legs. Tied with shins.

The chariot is equipped with two sets of spears with a handle length of three meters, two sets of bows and arrows, and some are equipped with shields and crossbows with launchers.When fighting far away, they shoot with crossbows and arrows, and when they are close, they fight with spears and axe.Chariot soldiers generally consist of eight men, and their equipment is the same as that of ordinary infantry. Their task is to closely coordinate with the chariots, which not only protects the safety of the chariots, but also helps to expand the results of the battle under the cover of the chariots.

The infantry is the main body in the formation of Qin Ruishi.Infantry has great flexibility and can adapt to various terrains, weather and combat forms, and is especially good for operations in dangerous and complex environments. Therefore, its division and equipment are more complicated than other arms, and its use is also more extensive than other arms.

The main distinction is heavy infantry and light infantry.Most of the hoplites wore metal armor and held long-handled weapons such as daggers, spears, hawks, and beryllium, and were tasked with fighting against heavy enemy groups.Light infantry generally do not wear armor, and hold long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows, and cooperate with heavy infantry to kill and injure enemy troops beyond the fighting distance.

In the infantry, officers at all levels above a hundred generals are mainly responsible for commanding troops to fight. Safety and self-defense are very important, so they only wear armor and carry swords, and do not hold long-handled weapons.The small officials below the head of the village not only command the soldiers to fight, but also personally lead the soldiers to charge and fight, so they both wear swords and long-handled weapons, and like the soldiers they lead, some wear armor and some do not wear armor.

Regardless of offensive, defensive or siege, defense, detour, encirclement, ambush, surprise attack, etc., infantry often undertakes the main combat tasks and finally resolves the battle. Also often infantry-based.

Therefore, infantry is the most important arm in Qin Ruishi's army. In the coordinated operations of vehicles, infantry, and cavalry, infantry generally occupies a dominant position.The weakness of infantry is that they are not as fast as cavalry, and not as stable as chariots. Only when combined with chariots and cavalry can they be even more powerful.So Qin Ruishi!The army places special emphasis on the coordinated operations of vehicles, infantry, and cavalry, with infantry as the mainstay.
