Bei Gongchun's words awakened Li Rui.

He has been doing everything possible to avoid hand-to-hand combat. He improved the crossbow, invented black powder, and even made a wooden cannon. These all helped the Jin army gain a considerable advantage on the battlefield. He did have a lot of advantages.

Great credit. But in essence, the whole

The reason for this is that he does not want to be involved in unpredictable hand-to-hand combat. He also wants to escape the purgatory of the Central Plains alive and find a good place to spend his life. If he is involved in hand-to-hand combat, a confused person will

No, how unjust he is!

However, on this cold weapon battlefield, who can avoid having to participate in hand-to-hand combat for the rest of their lives?

The scale of wars in this era is astonishing. Once a battle occurs, there can be thousands, tens of thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people. Once so many people launch a charge, it will be like a tsunami pouring into the inland.

The opponent is familiar with the frightening sound when black powder explodes, dares to withstand the casualties caused by these relatively primitive black powder weapons, and launches a desperate attack. Can these primitive hot weapons really block it? If not, what should he do?

How to parry?

As a general, you can use a sharp weapon as a means to defeat the enemy, but you cannot rely on it. The situation on the battlefield is unpredictable. No matter how many situations make people speechless or how many people want to cry without tears, it may happen that no one can

Know when your magic weapon will fail. Once this happens and the magic weapon fails, you can only rely on hand-to-hand combat to determine the outcome. At this time, the party with the weak hand-to-hand combat ability will definitely lose!

The most typical one is the Battle of Saarhu. The Ming army relied heavily on firearms and was focused on fighting non-contact combat with the Hou Jin army. Due to the bad weather and the inconvenience of using firearms, the Ming army was defeated by the Hou Jin army with water-cooled weapons.

four way

There were no three lines in the army. More than 300 civil and military officials died, and nearly 50,000 soldiers were killed. If the Ming army still maintained its strong close combat capabilities at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and dared to carry spears and confront cavalry, this battle would have been defeated.

Is it so miserable?

The armies of the Sui and Tang Dynasties put their melee combat capabilities first. Shooting weapons such as bows and crossbows were used as a secondary means, and they always emphasized melee combat to determine victory.

It is the most important means to determine victory or defeat. Many countries in Asia

The Chinese army had the courage to line up and shoot with the European armies and not even lose, but once the European armies launched a hand-to-hand charge, they immediately collapsed. This was still the case in the flintlock era, but in the cold weapon era, they actually imagined that they would never have to be involved in hand-to-hand combat.

Yes, this is a bit too naive.

Seeing that this kid had reacted so quickly, Bei Gongjun said with a hint of admiration in his eyes, "Get up early tomorrow, I want to see how much real skills you have!"

Li Rui was stunned.

Yang Xiu stepped on him: "Uncle wants to teach you about martial arts, why don't you thank him quickly!"

Li Rui bowed his head: "Thank you so much, General!"

Bei Gongchun said with a smile: "Don't thank me so early. I am very strict in teaching people to practice martial arts. I hope you won't cry when the time comes!"

Li Rui was sweating on his forehead, instinctively feeling something bad...

Bei Gongchun looked around the three young people and said in a low voice: "In this world, we don't know how long it will be in chaos! In these troubled times, no one can count on anything. The only thing you can count on is your own wisdom, and

The knife in your hand, if you want to survive, no matter what time, you must make your mind sensitive enough and the knife in your hand sharp enough... Children, don't waste your martial arts. If you waste your martial arts, you will leave.

Death is not far away!"

The three young men all looked solemn and nodded vigorously.

Yang Xiu nodded vigorously: "What my uncle taught me is that I must practice martial arts diligently every day and not dare to relax for a moment!"

Bei Gongjing said: "Me too!" Her eyes fell on Li Rui, feeling very dissatisfied.

Li Rui could only laugh. He was the laziest among the three. When Yang Xiu was practicing martial arts hard, he was either thinking about how to make delicious food, or lying on the deck chair to bask in the sun. He was just like a salted fish.

It seems that he has to work hard, otherwise he can't even compare to sheep embroidery, and then he won't let her laugh to death!

It can be seen that Bei Gongchun's life here in Mangshan is just fine. Sima Yue put him under house arrest here and refused to let him leave Mangshan. Even the number of correspondence and meetings between him and Bei Gongjing's father and son were restricted.

He strictly controlled the situation, but did not dare to lack him in terms of food and clothing. People in Luoyang were so hungry that people were eating each other, but Bei Gongchun was on Shouyang Mountain.

He can also eat plenty of fish and meat every day. When he is in a good mood, he can also go hunting and get some game for the tooth festival. He has five hundred Liangzhou elite soldiers and a hundred black eagle swordsmen beside him. This is a very powerful fighting force. It really makes him

He was desperate and gave it a try. The thousands of imperial troops guarding the mausoleum may not be able to stop him. Don't forget, in the first year of Yongjia, he only used a thousand

The heavy infantry withstood the fierce attack of tens of thousands of Wang Mi's rebels, and then led more than a hundred cavalry directly towards Wang Mi's commanding flag. Wang Mi was frightened and fled. Such a tiger was angered, and it had no effect on Sima Yue.

There is no benefit at all. Bei Gongchun is willing to stay here to guard the mausoleum because this is an order from the emperor. Regardless of whether the emperor was forced by Sima Yue, he

After giving such an order, Bei Gongchun obeyed, handed over the army to his son to command, and stayed in Shouyang Mountain to guard the mausoleum. But this did not mean that he could be humiliated by Sima Yue at will. Sima Yue also knew this very well, and had always

All the delicious food and drinks were provided to the old man, and from time to time he would send people over to coerce him and make him work for him.

It's just that the effect is not obvious.

Of course, this does not mean that Bei Gongchun can rest easy. Once Sima Yue completely loses his patience, the thousands of forbidden troops guarding the mausoleum may attack him at any time. Even if he can defeat these thousands of forbidden troops, there will be more to come later.

There are tens of thousands of people, even if he has

Even with all his abilities, he could not survive the siege of tens of thousands of elite forbidden troops. This is why Bei Gong Jing knew it was not the right time to counterattack the new city, so he had to obey the order. His father's life was in their hands.

, what else can you do if you don’t obey?

Life is okay, but don't expect Bei Gongchun to be half grateful to Sima Yue. In his eyes, Sima Yue is an unfaithful, dishonest, unfaithful, and unscrupulous despicable person. Jin Dynasty is a great country.

Just destroyed

In the hands of such a villain, Bei Gongchun would rather go back to the countryside and be a villager with a thatched cottage and a few acres of thin fields than work for the villain. He didn't lead troops to attack Sima Yue, so even if

The old turtle lost face!

It's also thanks to his great contribution to saving Luoyang and his high reputation among the people, otherwise he would definitely not be alive now. That old turtle has always been those who follow me and those who go against me will perish, like Beigong

Such bravery alone

The enemy was a guy who had a high reputation but refused to listen to his words. He would never show mercy. Wang Yan, who made great contributions in the defense of Luoyang, was killed by him without blinking an eye just because he was loyal to the emperor. But Bei

Gong Chun's

His reputation was so great that Sima Yue didn't dare to kill him unless he had to. If he killed him, he would have to betray his relatives and leave. There were many people in the Forbidden Army who admired Bei Gongchun. Because of this kind of thing

The reason is that Bei Gongchun has been depressed for the past year, but he has no worries about eating and drinking. This life is much better than Bei Gongjing. Bei Gongjing has been worrying about food and grass every day for the past year, and it is common for him not to have enough food.

There are some things!

Later, Bei Gongjing talked about the three battles of Xincheng, Yiyang, and Piaoliu, and told many details to Bei Gongchun. Bei Gongchun listened carefully and learned about the Queyue Formation created by Li Rui.

After twice defeating the Hu cavalry in field battles, he couldn't help but look at Li Rui with special eyes: "Boy, where did you learn such a sophisticated formation?"

Li Rui said: "I saw it in the family military manual."

Bei Gongchun asked: "Who wrote this military book? Do you have it with you? I want to borrow it and read it!"

Li Rui said: "This military book is incomplete, and the younger generation does not know whether it was written by a military strategist... I left it at home when I joined the army and did not bring it here."

Bei Gongchun sighed, feeling very regretful. He loved reading military books the most, and spent a lot of money on more than one occasion just to get an orphaned military book. I heard that Li Rui also had a military book in his home, and it recorded such exquisite formations.

Method, he was itching in his heart and wanted to borrow it to read, but Li Rui didn't bring the book of war with him at all, he just wanted to beat someone!

Li Rui dipped his finger in a little wine and drew a half-moon pattern on the table: "This Moon Formation itself is not complicated. It just connects several chariots end to end, forming a half-moon shape, and is equipped with a large number of strong bows."

Powerful crossbows and crossbow chariots, when the enemy rushes over, they will use arrow rain to kill a large number of enemies... Each chariot is equipped with ten men behind it.

The sergeant is responsible for protecting the chariot and the crossbowmen on the chariot, and killing the enemy troops that break into the chariot formation. Several exits should be reserved in the chariot camp that can be closed and opened at any time. When the fighter aircraft matures, the exits will be opened, and the army will

Rush out and launch a fierce counterattack against the enemy. If the battle is unfavorable, retreat immediately, close the exit, and continue to use your car camp to carry it to death."

"This is actually a replica of the city defense battle. The chariot formation plays the role of the city wall, but the city wall is movable. The closely arranged chariots are an insurmountable obstacle for the high-speed charging cavalry, which the cavalry relies on to win.

Its impact and maneuverability are useless in front of it. However, this formation has very high requirements on terrain. You must find the kind of terrain that can avoid enemy cavalry from attacking behind. Otherwise, using it against cavalry is a waste.

A disaster.”

Beigong Jun pondered: "So the first time you asked the car camp to line up outside the city gate, with both ends of the car camp hugging the city wall; the second time you asked the car camp to line up with their backs to the river embankment, with both ends hugging the river embankment.

Use the terrain to prevent the enemy cavalry from attacking from behind, forcing them to charge head-on?"

Li Rui nodded: "Yes. The reason why Hu Qi is so difficult to deal with is because they come and go like the wind, left and right, front and back, and they can hit wherever they want. The infantry can only be passively beaten. If you can

If we find a way to limit Hu Qi's mobility and force them to concentrate all their attacks in one direction, half the battle will be won. After all, Hu Qi still mainly focus on mounted archery. In terms of bow and crossbow shooting, they are no match for us.
