    Chapter 225 The Mandarin Duck Formation Shows Its Power

    Outside Zhouliu City, flags were fluttering and murderous intent was soaring into the sky!

    Ten percent of Japanese and Baekje soldiers have left the city and formed formations.

    After the Battle of Baijiangkou, Li Zhen blocked Zhouliu City. The Japanese people, who could not get even a grain of food supplies, saw that the situation was not good and gave up their plan to besiege the isolated city. They decided to start a decisive battle with the Tang army in the wild. If they could win, they would  You can break the Tang army's blockade in one battle and occupy the entire Sanhan area.

    Prince Zhong Daxiong is now the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army. He ordered 10,000 cavalry to be on both sides, 30,000 Baekje troops in the forward position, and 60,000 Japanese infantry in the rear.

    This formation made it clear that the Baekje army would be used as cannon fodder. When the Baekje army and the Tang army were almost killed, the Japanese army would then rush out to pick peaches.

    Li Zhen used a telescope to see the formation of the Japanese army, and couldn't help snorting coldly, saying: "This is to use the Baekje people as cannon fodder, and they will pick their own peaches."

    "Your Highness, what are the Japanese people on both sides riding? Are they fighting on pigs?" Cheng Chuzhi asked from the side.

    "Sweat!"

    Li Zhen saw a black line on his forehead and thought that Cheng Chuzhi's eyesight was really bad. The Japanese troops on both sides were cavalry, but the Japanese ponies were too small. They looked too mini and pocket-sized, about the same size as a pig.  , so Cheng Chuzhi mistakenly thought that the Japanese were fighting on pigs.

    "Don't worry about the Japs, the Millennium Guards and the Yulin Guards are in formation, the swordsmen and armored heavy cavalry are on both sides, the musketeers are in the middle, and the rest of the troops are behind!"

    Li Zhen constantly dispatched troops and generals and was ready for the battle.

    "Kill!"

    At this moment, the war drums on the opposite side were beating, and countless shouts of killing were heard. Countless Baekje people who didn't even have armor rushed towards the Tang army's formation with crude weapons.

    Nearly!

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Closer!

    The distance between the Baekje people and the Tang army¡¯s formation was less than 500 meters.

    The next moment, the flag behind Li Zhen swung, and more than a hundred crossbows were pushed out.  This is a three-bow bed crossbow unique to the Tang army. It has a long range and great power. There are three crossbows on the arms, two at the front and one at the back. They are also installed oppositely from front to back.

    Because this type of crossbow is more powerful, it is also called "Eight Ox Crossbow", which means that it takes the power of eight old oxen to pull it open.  It usually requires 20 to 100 people to fire a crossbow manually, and the range is between 200 and 300 steps, that is, about 370 to 560 meters.

    The crossbow arrows used in the Sangongfangzi crossbow are larger, with thick arrow shafts and iron feathers, and a huge triangular-edged iron arrowhead at the front end. Because its size is about the same as the spear used by ordinary soldiers, it is also called "  One spear, three swords and arrows.¡±

    "put!"

    A small school commander roared, and the next moment, countless huge crossbow arrows were shot out, attacking the Baekje soldiers on the opposite side.

    "flutter!"

    A huge crossbow arrow instantly pierced the chest of the first Baekje soldier. Under the influence of huge inertia, the Baekje soldier was led to fly backwards.

    The crossbow arrow continued unabated, and once again pierced the chest of the second Baekje soldier, and then plunged heavily to the ground with the two corpses. It looked like a bunch of bloody candied haws, which was horrifying.

    "boom!"

    ¡°Bang bang bang!¡±

    More than a hundred crossbows were fired at the same time, causing huge damage to the Baekje Army in an instant. In three consecutive rounds of firing, thousands of Baekje soldiers were killed.

    Changing the quality of an army is even more difficult than climbing to the sky. Most of these Baekje armies are made up of temporary farmers and have never experienced formal combat and training. Now they are experiencing such an intense and bloody battle all of a sudden.  They were so frightened that some peed their pants. More Baekje troops turned around and ran away in fear.

    "Baga! Those who retreat will die!"

    The samurai swords in the hands of the Japanese warriors behind him were raised, and the heads of the Baekje soldiers fell to the ground.

    However, the Japanese people behind them were supervising the battle with samurai swords. As long as any Baekje army escaped, their heads would be chopped off.

    Suddenly, the Baekje army was in chaos.

    The Tang army was still fighting in an orderly manner.

    Two thousand Qianniu Guard soldiers took off the long bows they carried on their backs, drew their bows and nocked arrows, and the arrows attacked the Baekje army like locusts.

    These Baekje troops were just a temporary formation of some farmers. They were not even wearing the simplest cloth armor. They were shot to the ground one by one under the rain of arrows.

    This can no longer be called a battle, this scene has completely evolved into a massacre.

    The rain of arrows from the Tang army dealt a devastating blow to the Baekje army.

    ??After twenty rounds of raining arrows, the Qianniu Guards soldiers finally stopped firing arrows and slowly advanced together with the Yulin Guards soldiers.

    In the Japanese army formation, Brother Zhong took a breath of cold air. The bows and arrows of the Tang army were really powerful. In just one hour, all 30,000 Baekje troops were lost.

    Fortunately, the sacrifices of these Baekje troops were not meaningless. They consumed most of the arrows of the Tang army, which created conditions for the Japanese army to counterattack.

    "Take it easy!"

    Countless Japanese people rushed toward Shen with samurai swords and bamboo spears in hand.

    These Japanese people are not tall, most of them are no more than 1.65 meters, but they are very strong and strong and can run very fast.

    As the Baekje army collapsed, these Japanese warriors armed with samurai swords and bamboo spears, with small flags on their backs, launched a violent attack on the Tang army's formation.

    These Japanese warriors have no formation and feel like a piece of loose sand, but they are all extremely brave and brave.

    A Japanese warrior picked up his katana and slashed forward.

    Just as the formation of the Tang army in front of them changed, two shields blocked the front. The Japanese warrior's sword struck the shields, and a string of sparks suddenly emitted, and the sound of gold and iron mingled.

    The next moment, two spears came out from behind the shield and pierced the Japanese warrior. The Japanese warrior screamed and fell to the ground.

    Before the katana in the hand of another Japanese warrior could fall, two wolf swords that were one foot, five or six feet long stretched out and swept them with force. The Japanese warrior screamed, and the katana in his hand was swept away by the wolf sword.  The next moment, a sword and shield player from the Tang Army swung his sword horizontally and chopped off the head of the Japanese warrior.

    "Yuanyang Formation" not only closely combines spear and shield, long and short, fully exerting the effectiveness of various weapons, but also the formation can be changed flexibly.  According to the situation and combat needs, the column can be changed into a horizontal formation, a formation can be changed into two small formations on the left and right, or three small formations on the left, center and right.

    When it becomes two small formations, it is called the "Two Talents Formation", and the left and right shield hands are accompanied by the left and right wolf hands, spearmen and short soldiers respectively to protect its attack; when it becomes three small formations, it is called the "Three Talents Formation".  , wolf spearmen, spearmen and short-armed men are in the middle.  Shield bearers guarded the left and right sides.  This changed formation is also called the "changing mandarin duck formation".

    The Yuanyang Formation is a formation specially developed by Qi Jiguang in another time and space to deal with the Japanese. This formation exerted great power when dealing with the Japanese. In this time and space, when the Japanese encountered the Yuanyang Formation, they were also killed and lost their helmets.  Abandoned Armor(remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
