The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 447 Battle of Bingzhou ([-])
"Isn't it? It's all blown up, can you still turn it over?"

On a temporary tower built behind the Han army, Guan Yi could clearly see the scene inside the Jin army's stronghold.

When the first two rounds of stone bombs landed on our side, a large number of Jin army recruits who had never experienced war panicked and quickly bombed the camp.But at this moment, Wang Jun handled it properly, Pang Ding charged desperately, and more middle and low-level officers of the Jin Army desperately suppressed it.The Jin army miraculously restored order.

However, Guan Da Sima was not at all depressed.

"Hehehe, it's okay, the enemy army lost their camp defenses and had to come out to fight our army. I don't want to use the spearmen in the environment inside the camp... Let Wang Shizhi see the new one I locked up with someone. Spear array. Order! Burn all the trebuchets, spearmen and crossbowmen, retreat sixty steps, and then change formation!"

"Here!"

Just after the Han army ignited their trebuchet, Wang Jun breathed a sigh of relief: It seems that the Han army also wants to fight in the field.Very good, the enemy was too close to the camp just now, and our army couldn't form a formation.Now the Han army took the initiative to give up space.Then, our army will also go out to line up.

What?You said take this opportunity to strengthen the camp defense and stick to it?This kind of option doesn't exist - Houzhai is a big lake, even if you burn all the boats, at night, these timid recruits won't swim across and escape?They don't need to swim across the entire lake that spans tens of miles, they just need to swim a certain distance and find a random shore to go up.

Therefore, while it is daytime, they can still fight against the soldiers.Otherwise, at night, the team will lose a lot of people.

And what about Guan Yi?Well, Da Sima blocked Wang Jun's intelligence line, but his connection with Jiexiu City was also cut off by Du Yu.So, he doesn't know what happened to Jiexiu at the moment.Therefore, he was also anxious to get rid of Wang Jun here, and then led the army to rescue Jiexiu.

Therefore, under the circumstances that the commanders of both sides were unwilling or willing, the two armies finally chose to fight in the field.

The lit catapult was like dozens of huge torches, which collapsed after burning for a quarter of an hour, and then quickly extinguished.When the thick smoke cleared, the military columns of both sides were clearly displayed in front of and behind the other side, and the commanders of both sides couldn't help but widen their eyes.

From the perspective of Jiang Su, the former commander of the Han army, the Jin army on the opposite side is, uh, very familiar.

The front line of the opponent is all pikemen.Not to mention a three-meter long gun for each person, the gunmen in every three rows are closely arranged, and the distance between the gunmen in the fourth row and the third row is obviously elongated.And the gunmen in the same row are about half a meter apart from each other—isn't this the big formation of the Shu Han gunmen in the past?

Then on the most flanks of the front line are sword and shield soldiers-this is the standard equipment of Shu Han spearmen in the past: to cover the flanks of the spear array.

As for the back of the Jin army's formation, of course it is the cavalry.

"噗嗤~~" Although it was a terrifying battlefield, Jiang Su couldn't help laughing, but he quickly reacted, and quickly tightened his face: "It's all there, each team leader, blow the whistle, go forward !"

Following Jiang Su's order, the spearmen of the Han army were fully deployed, revealing their ferocious side.

"Hiss~~ The spearmen of the Shu thief, why is the formation different from before?"

"It's not just that, my lord, this Shu thief's armor..."

Yes, Guan Yi's current army has a total of 4 people.2 of them are pikemen, and they are pikemen equipped with plate armor.

Not only that, because after taking Yongliang, the country's strength has increased significantly, Guan Yi began to upgrade the spear formation: from the solid spear formation to the hollow spear formation.

Now, the 1000 spearmen of the Han army directly formed 1000 hollow square formations.There are 250 people in each phalanx, and these [-] people form a hollow square. On each side, [-] gunmen are divided into five rows, facing four directions respectively-the problem of weak flank defense of the solid long spear array has been effectively solved.

In the center of this gun array, there are a hundred archers, who are responsible for remote output.

As soon as the two sides fought, screams filled the air one after another, but in general, the voices of the Jin army accounted for at least [-]% of the screams.

Both sides were armed with three-meter long spears, and they stabbed to the right in unison with the sound of the copper whistle.Although the recruits of the Jin army behaved very unbearably when the Han army attacked with stone bombs just now.But that was the first time the recruits faced actual combat, and they panicked without being effectively organized.And when they held long guns, mechanically followed the way they had been trained before, and numbly followed the sound of the copper whistle, their performance was not amazing, but it was basically normal.The gunmen in the first row actually shot the Han army on the opposite side many times.

However, what made the soldiers of the Jin army helpless was that the enemy's armor was so good that they couldn't break through it!
Of course it is not right to say that the armor cannot be pierced at all. The main problem is that the gun is three meters long, and the soldiers have to hold the gun with both hands to stab it hard.Even so, because the body of the gun is too long, in fact, when the spear is stabbed, the tip of the spear always shakes up and down.If the tip of the spear hits the scale armor, basically there is no problem - the gap between the armor plates is the best place for the spear point to penetrate.However, when facing the soldiers of the Han army wearing plate armor, the tip of the Jin army's spear stabbed the opponent, but as long as the opponent turned slightly sideways, the long spear tip was drawn out.

In fact, in the historical plane, it is precisely because of the advancement of armor technology that the birth of blunt weapons such as maces - anyway, if they can't break armor effectively, then use blunt force to shatter your internal organs. up.

It's a pity that now the plate armor appeared ahead of time and space, and the Jin army certainly didn't think of using blunt weapons.Therefore, in the first round of assassination between the two sides, the Jin army suffered a big loss.

Of course, the middle- and lower-level officers of the Jin army are generally good. The general in the rear did not issue new orders, and the officers continued to blow their copper whistles to direct their troops to continue to stab forward.

However, after the new stabbing began, the Jin army encountered another problem: the Han army had a hollow phalanx, and the archers in the phalanx kept shooting, causing casualties to their own soldiers and instability in the front line.There is another bigger problem: there are obvious gaps and intervals between the gun formations on the Han army's side.In other words, there are always some Jin army spearmen who have no enemies in front of them.And this part of the soldiers of the Jin army unconsciously jumped out of their own front and ran to the front.Gradually, the front line of the Jin army changed from a relatively neat straight line at the beginning to countless "convex" shapes.

This is not only a problem of uneven front lines, but also that the spearmen of the Jin Army who consciously or unconsciously squeezed into the middle of the two hollow gun formations of the Han Army were simultaneously attacked from the left and right sides—the gun formations of the Han Army. But it can bite on all sides!
The stabbing between the two sides only lasted for less than a quarter of an hour. When the two sides shot each other no more than fifty times, the suspense of the outcome has been lost!
"The sword and shield soldiers rushed forward, outflanking the flanks of the Shu thief spearmen!"

At the back of the battle formation, Wang Jun bowed his head in thought, while Pang Ding next to him gave orders hoarsely.

"Hey, the Pang family, after they're all like this, are they still thinking of making a comeback? What's the use of sending sword and shield soldiers to outflank the opponent's flank at this time? Well, but this hollow square formation, hey! It's really interesting."

"My lord, the battle situation is tight, what should I do?" An anxious voice broke Wang Jun's contemplation, and when he looked up, Pang Ding was already furious and his eyes were red.

"Well, General Pang, the enemy's army is well-armed and strong, and our army is really difficult to fight against the enemy. Hey, I just don't know when the reinforcements from Shaofu's side will arrive."

"Is there nothing you can do after listening to the envoy?"

"There is no good way. If you want to turn the tide of the battle, you have to survive at this moment. Send cavalry to charge to see if you can save one or two."

"Good, the last general is waiting for the envoy's words!" Pang Ding clapped his hands fiercely: "The envoy, the last general can clearly see from the rear formation. I was entangled in Xihe by Liu Yuanhai. And now our army still has [-] cavalry, fighting desperately, it might be impossible to turn defeat into victory!"

"General Pang is strong! If that's the case, please general! Please don't force yourself, if you can't do it, turn around in time!"

"Otherwise, both my father and brother died at the hands of the Guan family. In today's battle, it is rare for Guan Yi's child to be on the opposite side. I swear that I will behead him to pay homage to my father and brother. Please also order the brothers in the infantry to support us for a while. It will take a while to lead the cavalry around from the side."

"Shan, please rest assured, General Pang, Jun will stick to this place and wait for the general's good news!"
