Chapter 411 Arms Restraint
"Xuan Wenjun, have you ever seen this Changge battle?"

"Before the formation of the two armies, this Changge phalanx is the strongest nemesis. Under the Changge, let your Qibun attack menacingly, and I will sweep everything from Changge. This is the most powerful formation on the battlefield. method!"

On the side, Wang Ben stood with his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

"Well, it's the first time I've seen such a formation, but thinking about it, it's really enough to restrain the cavalry!"

Qin Yong nodded slightly. Although he had never really seen the scene of the two armies fighting, but in this cold weapon era, there is no doubt about the most powerful army, it must be the cavalry.

The cavalry, that is the strongest unit that has ruled the world for thousands of years, comes and goes like the wind, and attacks like fire.Anyone with a little common sense knows this.

But what is the cavalry most afraid of?Isn't it just rejecting the horse?

This long spear is upright, the weapon is two feet long, and if you lean forward, it is the simplest way to reject the horse.

You cavalry rush over and try, one will die if one hits, that is an insurmountable barrier at all.

I have to say that the wisdom of the ancients is indeed worthy of admiration.Cavalry is supposed to restrain infantry. No matter the speed or strength, it is not comparable to infantry.

But as soon as the Long Ge phalanx came out, the situation changed instantly.

The strength and speed of this cavalry has instead become the biggest flaw.Basically the faster you go, the more you die.

"Come, Mr. Xuan Wen, please!"

While speaking, Wang Ben made another gesture of invitation, and led Qin Yong to the other side of the school field.

Qin Yong followed up with a few people, and from a distance, he could hear the bowstring trembling and the sound of arrows piercing through the air.

Walking in, I saw arrows flying across the shooting range of thousands of people, streaking across the sky like a meteor shower.

The countless arrows have already shot thousands of arrow targets a hundred steps away like hedgehogs. People with intensive phobia hardly dare to look at them.

"Huo, this archery technique is fine!"

Qin Yong's eyes lit up. Even though the thousands of people present did not dare to say that they could shoot through Yang with a hundred steps, they basically hit the target with eight or nine out of ten arrows.

If this kind of arrow technique is used on the battlefield, especially in the midst of thousands of troops, is it still impossible to shoot accurately?

"How about it, the arrow skills of my Lishan soldiers are still eye-catching, right?"

"Before, my Lishan Feathered Arrow Army fought against the Blue Sky Feather Arrow Army. I won three battles and won three without a single defeat. I was once praised by the King as the number one Feather Arrow Army in the Qin Dynasty!"

Hearing Qin Yong's muttering to himself, Wang Ben raised his head and said with a proud face.

Qin Yong nodded slightly, and he had to admit that in this era when there were no guns and ammunition, the supernatural power of arrows was indeed very strong.

Especially in the battle of thousands of armies, it is simply invincible.

"Hey, by the way, the Changge phalanx I just saw can completely restrain the cavalry. Doesn't the Feathered Arrow Army completely restrain the Changge phalanx? After all, the Changge phalanx is placed there, but it is equivalent to a living target!"

Suddenly, Qin Yong thought of something and asked curiously.

"Hahaha, Mr. Xuan Wen is indeed a great talent. He has never seen the phalanx warfare, but he can see through the mystery so quickly!"

"That's right, this Feather Arrow Army is the absolute nemesis of the Changge Phalanx!"

Wang Ben laughed, looked at Qin Yong with admiration, and said, "Xuan Wenjun is a scholar, and he should have heard of the words bow horse riding and shooting. Now, Xuan Wenjun should know why bow horse riding and shooting is so important. Is it so powerful?"

Qin Yong thought for a while, understood, and said with a smile: "The so-called bow and horse riding and archery, the bow and arrow archery combined with the horse riding, crosses the battlefield, hurts the enemy with arrows, and then breaks them with the horse. This Long Ge phalanx wants to block the impact of the horse. , first you have to carry the rider’s bow and arrow, isn’t that the reason?”

Wang Ben nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, that's the truth!"

Qin Yong frowned and said: "In this way, isn't the Feathered Arrow Army invincible? Especially when the cavalry is paired with the archer, on the battlefield, don't you just let it go?"

While speaking, Qin Yong had more and more questions in his heart.

The ancients once said that war is an art with unpredictable changes and various moves.

People who have never been in contact with it can't even imagine the most basic military strategy, and always feel that many so-called tactics are very unreasonable.

For example, in various wars in history, why ambushes are always so powerful?I always feel that as long as there is an ambush, there is no reason to return empty-handed.It seems that every ambush will eventually cause the opponent to be defeated and flee.

For example, in the history of Qin Yong's previous life, Han Xin's ambush against Xiang Yu, and those so-called pocket formations and so on.

Aren't there scouts and spies in this army? Could it be that these troops are vegetarians and can't see each other's movements?

If this is the case, why do we need to train these arms?
If he could see it, he knew there was an ambush, so why would he be caught in an ambush?

It's fine if you don't put all these kinds of questions on the table, but once you put them out, it's simply unreasonable.

There is even a very strange phenomenon, in this ancient city, walls were built in all directions, why do you have to take down the city to conquer the world?
Can't we go around, surround us on all sides, cut off the enemy's food and grass, and wait for work at ease, without bloodshed?
Could it be that the ancients were all fools, and they didn't understand the truth that children understand?
There are many, many similar questions, such as those ladders used to attack the city on TV in later generations, why didn't the people on the city wall retreat directly, and the enemy who climbed the stairs were smashed to pieces, and they still held huge stones and rolled logs to smash them, and finally returned Let people kill them.

For another example, why are there so many so-called battlegrounds for military strategists? If I don’t fight for them, why can’t I take a detour and attack your rear?

It's like Cao Cao crossing Jiangdong, why did he swagger and go towards the battle formation that the opponent had prepared long ago with great fanfare, wouldn't he not be sharp and change his position to go on the road, so wouldn't there be no saying of burning Chibi?

Everyone would be surprised by these various questions, including Qin Yong.

At this moment, as soon as he entered the military camp, his question immediately popped up.

"Xuan Wen-jun's words are wrong. The so-called world has no perfect method. This cavalry archer is indeed an invincible unit on the battlefield. Like Zhao Guo, it is Hu Fu cavalry and archery that is so powerful. But This does not mean that the combination of bow and horse is really invincible!"

"If this is the case, Zhao Guo has already ruled the world. Even my Daqin cavalry may not be Zhao Guo's opponent!"

Just as countless doubts surged up in Qin Yong's heart, Wang Ben at the side shook his head and said with a smile.

"In this way, it seems reasonable. But what kind of arms can restrain the cavalry and archery army?"

Qin Yong nodded slightly and asked in a deep voice.

Wang Ben looked at Qin Yong speechlessly. He thought that Qin Yong just had little contact with him and didn't know much about him.

It is only now that I realize that this person has never even heard about the sergeant's war, otherwise he wouldn't have asked such an idiot question.

It's also fortunate that he owns a wine shop. In this wine shop, there are always some chatter on weekdays, isn't it just about this kind of knowledge?

How on earth did this man keep his ears shut, not even listening to the conversations in his own tavern?
