Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 190
"When the buttock is healed, you will be the boss. With this good news, the buttock will not hurt anymore."

In Wang Pu's barracks, Yang Chao sat next to him and said to Wang Pu who was lying on the bed.

Wang Pu turned his head and laughed dryly. It was indeed good news. It was his dream to be awarded the general manager, but his butt still hurt.

"You kid won't change after repeated admonitions. Next time you dare to gather a crowd to make noise, I'll cut off your head."

Wang Pu knew that Yang Chao's subordinates were merciful this time, as long as he was not killed, it would be considered light to hit him eighty times, so he didn't feel annoyed.

He smiled and said, "I know I made a mistake under the mark."

Yang Chao said again: "I know you are not convinced by Lao Jin, but he is a hero who went to the Liaodong battlefield and killed the Manchurian Tartars. He is much better than you who killed a few Jiang bandits."

Wang Pu was still dissatisfied and said: "My lord, it's not that you are boasting, you have no chance, and you will kill the Tartars anyway."

Yang Chao snorted and said, "It doesn't hurt your back when you talk standing up, and it doesn't hurt when you talk lying down. Don't be afraid if you don't have a chance, I will give you a chance in a few days. When you recover from your injury, I will let you practice with Lao Jin soldiers. At that time, I will see Zhenzhang under my hand."

Wang Pu said happily, "Your Excellency, you mean to let the soldiers under the bid fight Lao Jin?"

Yang Chao said: "Probably that's what it means, we'll see if you're still convinced!"

The sword and shield soldiers in the barracks outside are in two teams, holding a shield in one hand and a knife in the other to attack and defend each other.

The shield is a wooden shield, and the knife is also a wooden knife, so it cannot be hurt.

In addition to sword and shield soldiers, between spearmen and spearmen, between spearmen and sword and shield soldiers, between spearmen and archers, between sword and shield soldiers and archers, and between archers and archers, there are often such kind of confrontation.

The weapons used are all wooden, and the archers use headless arrows, and they also wear wooden face shields.

This kind of confrontation, once every three days, is used to test the training results, and the outcome will be recorded.

Soldiers are therefore serious about confrontation, not least because it is about their future.

Winners also have rewards, that is, eating a good meal is not important, what is important is the sense of accomplishment implied in the preferential treatment, which will make people feel that they won, they are winners, they He is stronger than others, so he gets preferential treatment.

Martial arts can be compared in this way and simply recorded, but military formations are difficult to quantify, so Yang Chao also wants to use military formations against military formations for a simulated exercise. Since Wang Pu is not satisfied with Lao Jin, he will let Wang Pu Lead the team to compare with Lao Jin's team.

Yang Chao believes that the mandarin duck formation, which is flexible and changeable and has been baptized by war, should have changes that can restrain his simple wall formation.

After all, in Lao Jin's rehearsal, when the mandarin duck formation was chasing, the one-word horizontal formation used was no different from his own wall formation. Since the mandarin duck formation included such changes, there was no reason why he could not restrain this kind of formation.

Ten days later, Wang Pu finally got up from the bed. This guy had been beaten a lot, but his skin was rough and his flesh was thick, so he recovered quickly.

He immediately named his team and clamored to compete with Lao Jin, almost letting Yang Chao punish him again.

The playground inside the gate of Daying is not a small piece of flat land, a full five acres in size, and it was still a vegetable field last year.

Wang Pu picked out his own team, and Lao Jin picked out another team.

The weapons of the two sides are different. Wang Pu's team is uniform headless spears, while Lao Jin's team is equipped with wooden swords and shields, boring palladium, wolf milling and other various weapons.

And they all wear a pair of protective gear, which is very simple. On the head is a curved wooden board, revealing two eyes, and on the chest and abdomen is a whole wooden board tied to the body with leather straps.

Two pairs of people lined up, surrounded by soldiers, Yang Chao stood in the inner circle and watched, thinking in his heart that after Lao Jin took care of Wang Pu, he would see what excuse he could use to be arrogant in the future.

After confirming that both parties are ready, Yang Chao shouted to start.

Immediately Wang Pu yelled, and rushed up with his men, shouting the word 'kill' in his mouth, with great momentum.

The distance between the two sides is no more than ten steps. In ancient times, a step is two steps, and one step is a step, and another step is a step. The so-called step is also called a step.

One step is roughly equivalent to 1.5 meters in later generations, and ten steps are only 15 meters, almost instantly.

Wang Pu and his men rushed over like a battering ram, while Lao Jin's formation was a classic mandarin duck formation, with a long card player and a sword and shield player in front, followed by two soldiers holding wolves. After that came four spearmen, after that came two pikemen, and finally a stick musketeer.

As a result, Wang Pu led the men and rushed fiercely, overturning the two soldiers holding long cards and shields in front, and then rushed into the mandarin duck formation with a tight wall formation and pushed them across. Lao Jin was defeated like this.

Lao Jin lost, Yang Chao couldn't believe it, so he just lost.

Just being charged by Wang Pu like this, he was defeated. Is this still an invincible mandarin duck formation?

Yang Chao couldn't help wondering whether the simple and efficient wall formation charge could really rival the complex and changeable mandarin duck formation?
What Yang Chao didn't know was that Lao Jin had practiced the mandarin duck formation for a long time, and Wang Pu and the others were also familiar with the mandarin duck formation, but Lao Jin had never seen the wall formation charge, while Wang Pu was very proficient in this, and Wang Pu had planned it for a long time. , I discussed with my subordinates for a long time, and I had already discussed that as soon as the fight started, I would charge a little bit, knock down the shield soldiers, and go in with cover.

But Lao Jin was a little arrogant, and didn't pay attention to Wang Pu, a young boy, so he didn't have a special deployment, and he didn't understand the lethality of a dense formation like a wall formation when charging, so he used ordinary The mandarin ducks fought against the enemy, but failed, and the defeat was due to carelessness.

But the confrontation is not only this battle, the next is the confrontation between the two teams.

Wang Pu wrapped in a V-shaped double-row wall formation, and Lao Jin met the enemy with a parallel double mandarin duck formation. The result was a chaotic battle, and finally Wang Pu narrowly won by a few points.

The weapons are all stained with white flour, so hitting the opponent counts as a little bit.

In the end, there was a confrontation between the three teams. All three teams under Wang Pu went up, and Lao Jin transferred the three teams to meet the enemy.

Losing two battles in a row made Lao Jin look very bad. This time he specially sent out his apprentice Xie Fei, and all the soldiers he dispatched were elite soldiers.

Xie Fei's first team, many men's first team, Song Kun's first team, the third team against Wang Pu's third team.

As a result, Wang Pu still set up a V-shaped formation this time, but the two sides were only for cover, and they were still the shield players who attacked the three teams of mandarin duck formations from the front.

The two sides forced the formation of mandarin ducks to change.

Lao Jin kept issuing orders, wanting to unfold the mandarin duck formation, and then roll it backwards. This move was very effective against loose Japanese pirates, but Wang Pu's two wings firmly oppressed the mandarin duck formation and refused to let it unfold.

In this way, it was formed, and Wang Pu hit six against twelve.

The mandarin duck formations on both sides could only fight against the twelve spearmen with one gunner, one wolf gunner, two spearmen and one fireman on the side, and they couldn't unfold if they were firmly suppressed.

The twenty soldiers in the center of the mandarin duck formation were squeezed into the formation, almost doing nothing, and the final result could only be a miserable loss. Wang Pu's center broke through again, and then the two flanks took advantage of the situation to cut in.

This battle turned Yang Chao's worldview upside down, and at the same time, he also recognized Wang Pu's experience and ability in the battle.
