Chapter 374: Blind Spot, Zhao'an, Ruzhou Falls(1/2)

Chapter 374 Blind Spot Recruitment Ruzhou Falls

The assassination of a spear does not require too much action. The spear tip enters and exits on the human body, which is enough to make the enemy lose its combat effectiveness. If the soldiers of Oman team make this posture, it will also be effective if they are placed on the battlefield.

The officer of the team of the hundred-man team watched the other party pressing over, looked at the round lime wrapped in the long wooden pole raised opposite, and was sweating profusely. If it were on the battlefield, he would have died.

During the exercise, if the spear formation is disintegrated and cannot form a formation, it will be considered a failure. The 100-man team has missed the opportunity to escape, and the current choice can only be a head-on battle.

Wang Hai also saw that something was wrong here. It was just that the square formation of thousands of people was able to strode greatly was the limit of speed. If he wanted to trot forward quickly, the entire team would collapse. He simply ignored the 100-man team that was in a hurry to deal with it, and suppressed the team and approached steadily.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Oman team is dealing with the team, the team will attack the opponent's wing, which is the key to victory or defeat.

The formation has begun there, and the soldiers in the first and second rows of the 100-man team have white marks on their chests and throats. There are already judges on the side who believe that they have lost their combat effectiveness.

The loss was a little depressed. He was shouting for assassination, but the other party was just step by step, so why was the killing effect better?

The battle between the large array was met, dozens of spears and hundreds of spears stabbed each other, and the winner was decided very quickly. The 100-man team quickly retreated and then withdrew from the battlefield.

There were only ten casualties and injuries to Oman's quadron. The team led by Wang Hai was still fifty steps away from here. All the people watching the battle on the earth platform stood up. Oman's initial repelled the 100-man team as if it was destroyed quickly, which was already very evident.

Everyone felt that Jiaozhou Camp was quite embarrassed today, and Oman gained the upper hand in fighting alone. The collapse of the 100-man team made people feel even worse. They could only wait for Zhang Liang to see if they could get it back.

The rhythm of the marching drum was a little quicker. Wang Hai was making the team move forward as fast as possible, and defeating him from the flank before the foreign team turned.

After Oman defeated, the non-commissioned officers sorted out their formation, but did not turn to face the enemy. Instead, they continued to walk in this direction with big strides.

On the other side, the Wang Haiti army had already begun to prepare for combat and slowed down slightly. However, the unexpected reaction of the Oman team made the distance between the two sides closer. If the first row of the Wang Haifang team was used as a horizontal line, the Oman team was taking a slash.

At the speed of both sides, as long as the Oman team did not turn back, Wang Hai's team could not catch up. Oman kept making orders loudly. He followed the translator, and his voice was a little hoarse. Although the troops were marching with spears and walking again, they did not have special training. It was very difficult to keep up.

The Oman team kept changing directions during the slashing line. Now everyone understood that the Oman team's target was the wing of the Wang Haifang team.

Attacking the flank is an eternal method in the war. Because the distance was widened before, according to the pace of both sides, the Oman square formation will definitely reach the flank of the Wanghai square first.

Wang Hai shouted loudly, and the rhythm of the drums began to change. The team he led began to rotate to the left with the left wing as the central axis, so that his front face would face the front. No matter what, there were many people here. He did not suffer any loss when facing the other side.

The Jiaozhou camp queue training is extremely excellent. When you stand at attention and turn in a hurry, the team does not seem scattered. This experimental camp is mostly veterans and does even better.

When Oman was strideing forward, he observed that Wang Hai's team had turned around, and the formation was kept neatly and not messy at all. He was also somewhat underestimated about the training level of this team. However, Wang Hai ordered the team to rotate, which had already achieved his goal.

"Stand up~~Stay!" "Roll right~~!!" "Step forward!"

As these two orders were issued, Oman's team set a distance from Wang Hai's team again, but this time he headed towards Wang Hai's team's right wing.

The square team turns much faster than the rectangular team. The four sides of the square team have the same attack power, while the rectangular team has strong and weak sides.

The two square formations seemed to be chasing each other in the school field. With each turn and adjustment, the Oman square can use the square team to turn quickly, earning a little advantage in time and distance. During the fourth turn, the Oman square can already steadily attack Wang Hai's weak left wing.

Just when the two armies were about to fight, an order came from the Tutai where Li Meng was located, "The general judged that the two sides would tie this battle, and the leaders of both sides would go to the general!"

Although it was a draw, the outcome was clear. It was obviously a decision made by Li Meng to take care of the face of his military general. Ouman also knew that he had just arrived. If the limelight was too strong, it would not be a good thing, so he accepted the result calmly.

Of course, Wang Hai felt uncomfortable, but the result of the battle was already like this, and he could only accept this fact. When Ouman walked back to the wooden platform, Li Meng personally walked down from the wooden platform to greet him. The change in treatment also shows that Ouman's position in Li Meng's heart has become different.

"This is a layer of window paper. I never thought it would be exposed by you!"

Li Meng smiled and said to Ouman, the Jiaozhou camp formation was quite strange, with one thousand people similar to the modern regiment organization, but a certain number of musket soldiers must be maintained. The formations that 800 spearmen can be listed, that is, the formations of twenty to forty, facing the enemy wide.

Of course, in the battles we have encountered now, Jiaozhou Camp has not suffered any losses because of this formation. Because of the preset battlefield, Jiaozhou Camp fought in each battle in the battlefield they chose. The terrain restrictions make the enemy only face the front of the Jiaozhou Camp formation.

Moreover, with the training and strength of Shandong soldiers, facing the enemy head-on is enough to defeat most of the enemies. In this case, the pros and cons of rectangular square formations and square formations are not so necessary to make people notice that Jiaozhou camp thinks this is correct.

However, for Li Meng, it is always good to let his troops fully exert their power. Oman's exercise today showed many problems that had never been thought of before. The victory of this combat exercise even showed Oman's ability and ability. Of course, Li Meng was happy.

Li Meng's square array system was almost created by himself, but Europe has used it for nearly two hundred years to learn from advanced military technology and catch up.

Just now, when the outcome was clear, Li Meng couldn't help but ask in a low voice:

"This foreigner is different from Dunglas. He is capable but does not know the truth. I don't want him to have too many contacts with the soldiers below, but he is indeed a capable talent. What position should he give him?"

He watched the game on stage and was embarrassed to put it in a difficult situation. Yuan Wenhong hesitated and said:

"It's better to imitate Mr. Gongsun's appointment. Be a counselor and consultant."

This is very consistent with Li Meng's wishes. As a consultant with Wen, it is very appropriate for Oman to be a military consultant.

Seeing Li Meng coming down to greet him, Wang Hai was really angry and couldn't help but speak:

"What's wrong with the rectangular formation? Our Shandong soldiers have never lost any battles!"

Li Meng smiled and turned his eyes to Ouman, looking forward to him answering. Ouman knew that this was also part of the exam, so he answered in the unskilled Chinese:

"Master, when I was internship in this barracks, someone once told me about the past victories of our army. By asking the translator and the priest, I knew that these victories were obtained on some relatively inconsistent terrain, and we could always gain terrain advantage."

The information in all aspects of the experimental camp is indeed much more complete than elsewhere. Li Meng nodded, and Oman continued:

"But I heard that the army around Jinan City is all about guarding against enemies that may come to the north, and the vast land on the north is all plains. In this plain terrain, the infantry phalanx may encounter enemies on all sides and will not gain the preset terrain advantage. For this, there must be a formation with rapid turn and more suitable!"

The enemy to the north. Li Meng knew that the Qing Tartars would definitely enter the pass and go south. He knew this historical trend. Originally, in his superficial historical knowledge, he thought that the Qing Tartars only entered the pass after a stone battle. Who would have thought that when this era came, the Tartars had come in four times so far.

Although I can't remember the specific year, looking at the current situation of the world, this stone battle is about to come, but before that, what do you know how many times the Qing Dynasty will enter the pass.

At present, he has finally managed Shandong like a person, so he cannot be ruined by the Tartars. Therefore, Li Meng personally led the strongest old camp in Jinan, which is similar to the Ming Dynasty's capital in the capital.

When I heard Ouman say the northern plains, I mean the North China Plain. On this plain, the cavalry can run across the mountain. In Shandong and the south, the tactics of arranging the formations and terrain may not be suitable for this large plain. The formation organized by Ouman is indeed the most suitable.

This is what Li Meng is most concerned about. When he heard the other party say this, Li Meng was also ashamed and looked up at this foreigner.

As for the posture of soldiers holding spears, their assassination method is suitable for individual combat, and Oman's method is more suitable for large army combat. This change is not difficult, and the specific situation is analyzed in detail.

"Oman Garris, you are very good. Practice your Chinese as soon as possible. I can give you anything you haven't gotten in Europe!"

This promise was equivalent to giving him certain wealth and glory. In the envy of all the people, Oman bent his knees and said with gratitude but persistence:

"Master, my ideal is to play my role in a unit of honor and discipline. Thank you for your inclusion. I will repay you with my skills and life!"

"You don't have to worry about honor and discipline. Part of the combat effectiveness of this coach comes from this discipline and honor, so naturally we must strictly maintain it."

Li Meng smiled and patted Ouman on the shoulder, but there was a decisive affirmation in the sentence. At this time, several cavalrymen rushed into the school ground and stopped at thirty steps away from Li Meng. Several people stumbled over. The man sandwiched in the middle was already panting and extremely tired.

Seeing that the cavalry's cuffs and collar were black, Li Meng knew that this was the envoy of the Huai Yang Army. The man ran a few steps and shouted hoarsely:

"The Grand Marshal, Grand Marshal, Nanzhili has urgent reports! There is urgent reports!!"

Li Meng turned around and said to Yuan Wenhong:

"Give this Oman a general interpretation. If we want someone who is reliable, Oman's treatment will be handled first according to the General Secretary of the Camp!"

After saying this, Li Meng called Wang Hai and Tang Er to walk out of the schoolyard of the experimental camp together.

The movements of the Yang Army of Huai and Qingzhou Army in Southern Zhili and the communication of military newspaper information are fast horses every day, and the news over there will be about two days to know about Li Meng.

The Shandong-Nanzhili Station system established by Lingshan Trading Company and local gentry gentry is very expensive, but it is also worthwhile for the purpose of transferring information. The horses always maintain a lot of physical strength and travel at high speed to ensure that the information is delivered as timely as possible.

Since it was an urgent report, it was not too late to find a house and walked in directly. As soon as he entered the door, the cavalry who delivered the letter became a little weak and staggered a few steps. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Li Mengdi's personal soldiers, and then was helped by the cavalry escorted him to rest.

The remaining six people in the room were all Li Meng's confidants. The personal soldier took the letter and looked at the cover. He did not hand it over to Li Meng directly.

Instead, he walked to another personal soldier from a clerk who was born next to him and whispered:

"In the third year of the Tianqi revelation, Suzhou Plum Blossom Bookstore's "Water Margin"..."

The personal soldier who was born in the clerk brought a large basket with him, including books of various colors. When he heard the report from his companions, he quickly fetched out a book and a booklet, and the letter paper was solemnly handed over to Yuan Wenhong beside Li Meng.

The chief clerk Yuan Wenhong took these three things and sued him. He went to the table and chairs behind to contact him. Li Meng glanced at Wang Hai next to him, and saw that his face was not good-looking, so he quipped:

"Winning is a common thing for military strategists. Xiaohai, you are now a general who holds the power, why are you still so restless?"

Hearing Li Meng's words, Wang Hai had to laugh a few times, but it was almost the same. Li Meng said with a smile:

"Today's exercise is not that Oman is stronger than you, but that there are some things that Jiaozhou Camp has never noticed. This is our blind spot. Your failure today is precisely because our blind spot was found by this foreigner."

Li Meng's expression became cautious, he raised his voice slightly, and said:

"Today's defeat is a good thing. If such a blind spot is placed on the battlefield and is caught by the enemy, it will be a great deal. The soldiers below are killed and injured, and the troops are defeated. It will be a disaster. Xiaohai, tonight, you and Zhuzhu Yuan immediately compile a battle example and explanation, and then send it to the army with an expedited fast horse."

After hearing Li Meng's seriousness, Wang Hai quickly stood up to take the order. After hearing this, he felt a lot of anger. The earlier he discovered this problem, the better, but there was something difficult about it. Jiaozhou Camp was organized by one thousand people. If it was a square local team, the organization would probably have to be changed. This was a huge project.

Before he finished speaking, Yuan Wenhong hurried over with a piece of paper and handed it to Li Meng solemnly. Li Meng unfolded, first stunned, then looked quite amused and laughed.

Tang Er and Wang Hai next to him were a little worried when they saw this. As core generals, they naturally knew what Jiaozhou Camp was doing in Nanzhili. When they saw Li Meng's expression was different, they thought there was something wrong.

Next, Li Meng leaned on the chair boredly, handed the letter paper back to Yuan Wenhong, and said calmly to the two trusted generals in the room:

"The fifth camp of the Gzuo surrendered."

Although there were only a few people in the room, Wang Hai and Tang Er looked at each other and showed surprise. They looked at each other, stood up and clasped their fists and said to Li Meng:

"Congratulations to the Grandmaster, the big event is approaching."

Li Meng nodded, but was not as excited as they were. He planned for a long time. He wanted to wait until the Wu Battalion of the Gezuo and the Ming soldiers of the Nanzhili entangled each other, and to work together in several places to completely eat the Ming officers and soldiers of the Gezuo Battalion of the Nanzhili, and eat up this confidant place of the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, your Shandong land will have a large rear, your population and territory can be expanded more than twice, and your tax income will increase significantly. At that time, you can really look down on the world and act calmly.

You should know that half of the taxes in the Ming Dynasty came from Nanzhili, and the capital and Shanxi needed the supply of food and wealth from the Nanzhili area. After taking over Nanzhili, Jiangxi and Zhejiang, such wealthy lands are not at all dangerous to defend, and they can also go down in one go. After obtaining the population and territory of these places, Li Meng's Jiaozhou camp will be unrivaled.

In order to achieve this goal, Li Meng planned a very big plan. He drove the tiger and swallowed the wolf, and then the Jiaozhou camp army was spying on the back and determined the overall situation in a battle.

But after all preparations were mobilized for so long, Ge Zuo Fifth Camp, the important protagonist in this layout, actually surrendered. It seemed that a man was holding his strength to swing a hammer and knocked it down. Who would have thought that after swinging it, he found that the thing to smash the ground was gone, and he hit the empty space, and his whole body was not used.

This feeling is empty and uncomfortable. The goal that originally required a lot of effort has suddenly become easy to obtain. For Li Meng, it lacks the fun of strategizing and winning the fruits step by step, which is indeed meaningless.

But for Wang Hai and Tang Er, this incident is indeed a pleasure. Since the surrender is over, the Yang army of Huai and the Qingzhou army can kill and injure less soldiers, spend less military pay and money, and do their best to deal with the officers and soldiers of Nanzhili, Lu Jiude.

Moreover, the surrender of the soldiers of the Fifth Battalion of the Gleath Battalion has another advantage, that is, they can absorb a large number of available troops from the surrendered troops.

Nowadays, except for the Jiaozhou Camp, most of the other Ming officers and soldiers are already rotten, and some of them have similar combat power and are incompatible with the Jiaozhou Camp. Shandong's young and strong and suitable source of troops have reached a limit. If the recruitment continues, it will probably affect production.
