Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: The New Biography of Guan Ping

The third is sparse formation, which is used to create momentum.Grain-grain-net-first-post www>

If the sparse array is used well, it can defeat the elite enemy army.This sparse formation reminded Guan Ping of the sparrow battle during the War of Resistance Against Japan. This formation was especially suitable for fighting in mountainous areas. Remembering that all future battles with Shu would be in the mountains near the Qinling Mountains, Guan Ping raised the importance of this formation to the point where it was difficult Confidence height.

Linked by region and blood, the whole army is divided into hundreds of teams of more than a dozen people, including shield players, gunmen, swordmen, and crossbowmen.

Guan Ping believes that this kind of small fight, which was disdained by ancient generals, will surely shine in future mountain warfare.

The fourth is a number of formations. The function of the number of formations is to prevent the enemy from dividing and destroying its own army.That is to unite the army closely together to prevent the enemy from defeating our army one by one. [

The method of arranging the number array is: there is no need to increase the distance between rows, the rows and columns should be close to each other, arranged in an orderly manner, the weapons should be dense and easy to display, and the front and rear should protect each other.When your soldiers feel panic, they should stop their actions and keep stable.When the enemy retreats, don't pursue it; when the enemy invades, don't intercept it. You can choose the enemy's weak point to attack, or defeat the enemy's sharpness. You must make careful calculations, and don't give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it. The army had to retreat as if it encountered a mountain in front of the battle.In this way, the number array is unbreakable.

It is generally used when the army arrives at the combat location after a long-distance raid. It should be quickly assembled and formed into several formations, and should not be left to the enemy to take advantage of.Guan Ping didn't particularly care about this formation. After all, both Yongzhou and Yizhou were mountainous, not as plain as they were, and there were more raids and battles.

The fifth is the cone array, which is used to break through the enemy's positions and cut off their interconnections.The arrangement of the conical array should be like a sharp sword.If its front is not sharp, it cannot attack the enemy's formation; if its two wings are not sharp, it cannot cut off the enemy's army; if its main body is not strong, it cannot form a cone formation.

Therefore, the forward of the conical formation must be sharp, the wings must be light and sharp, and the main body must be strong.Such a conical formation can break through the enemy's formation and cut off the enemy's army.

Guan Ping made every effort to build iron armored cavalry, in order to use them as the tip angle of the cone array.

The sixth is the goose-shaped formation, the arrangement of the goose-shaped formation: the front arrangement should be as solid as a rock, while the rear arrangement should be like a good civet cat.

As long as the front resists the pressure, the rear can carry out large-scale crossbow attacks.Therefore, the wild goose formation is used for bow and crossbow warfare.

The seventh is a hook-shaped array. The front of the hook-shaped array must be arranged in a square shape, and the left and right wings must be arranged in a hook-shaped corresponding to each other, so that they can advance and retreat.The gold, drum, and horn three sounding devices for command must be complete, and the flags of five colors must be complete, so that your soldiers can distinguish the sound orders and command flags of the army's command, so that orders can be issued accurately. reach the ministries.Therefore, the hook formation is used when the situation changes and the battle plan is changed.

The eighth is the Xuanxiang formation. The Xuanxiang formation is a commonly used formation in large-scale battles. It should be scattered on the surface but stable in reality. The chariots are chaotic on the surface but they are actually arranged in an orderly manner, so that the soldiers are noisy and chaotic like in a teahouse or tavern, walking around, endlessly, as if they fell from the sky or emerged from the ground. day in and day out.After Guan Ping adopted it, the specific training method was to hide in the formation immediately after shooting with crossbowmen in front, cover the front with shields, and after a solid defense, shoot with crossbowmen in three stages, and cavalry cruised in two places.This formation is extremely powerful, but it is also very difficult to grasp. Once a slight mistake is made, the entire army may fall into a situation of destruction.

There are also two special tactics, fire array and water array.

The fire array is used to attack and pull out the enemy's camp.The water array is used to strengthen the defense.The lands of Yong and Yi are mountainous and forested, and Guan Ping attaches great importance to the formation of fire.Although there is Weishui in the water array, it has little effect.The method of using the fire formation is to build trenches outside the ditches, pile up firewood every five steps, and make sure the density is even. Move lightly and neatly >

The condition for fighting with fire is that the enemy's position is downwind, the enemy's position is low and flat, overgrown with weeds, and the enemy has nowhere to escape when it is burned.Fire attack can only be used when these conditions are met. In windy weather, the enemy's position is overgrown with weeds, firewood is piled up, and the camp is not well guarded, fire attack can also be used.

At this time, use the fire attack to cause chaos in the enemy army, and then shoot the enemy army with dense arrows like rain, and beat the drums and shout to urge the soldiers to attack, and use the force to assist the fire attack.That's the way to fight with fire.

Among the above ten formations, Guan Ping's general idea is to use the round formation as the main defensive formation and train day and night.Phalanx and cone arrays should be used with caution.The hook-shaped formation and the Xuanxiang formation are only for practice, and are not ready to be put into actual combat.The number array is used in due course.As for the sparse formation, as a method of winning by surprise, regardless of the opposition of Yin Yuan and others, it instilled its incomparable importance in the soldiers day and night.The fire formation, and the fire protection formation are also regarded as a major issue.Water array, temporarily give up and do not practice.
