Daqin Engineers

The Liangjun began to practice the formation the next day.

It's not "Wolf's Corridor" but bamboo...Of course the fifty thousand barbs can't be made so quickly.

But it's not much different, at least from the outside.

That appearance is really indescribable:

In front of every fifteen people held two three-meter-long moso bamboos with sharpened tops, all with branches and leaves, so the whole team seemed to be hiding in a dense forest.

The rehearsal is also simple. First assign the sword and shield hand, spearman and archer and their positions, and then put in various formations as usual.

But there are still some troubles.

Because this mandarin duck formation has three teams in each team, then every two teams has six teams.

The Qin army’s organization is based on five groups, two groups and one group are commanded by the chief commander, and ten groups and one group are commanded by the village chief.

So, how do the three members of the mandarin duck formation command?

How many teams does the chief commander?

Inevitably, there will be irregularities.

If the division of labor is not clear, there will be confusion in command, so it needs to be adapted.

Shen Bing's method was to reorganize the village as a unit.

Originally, a squad commander commanded fifty people, and after adding two corps to sixty people, it happened to be divided into four teams.

Then expand the number of commanders to command a team, but two of them will be split.

These are not major issues. The most important thing in the Qin Army is the grassroots "Wu" unit, because its soldier's household registration is one book per Wu and then the system is implemented.

As long as you maintain the "Wu" organizational system, you just need to change to a higher level and get familiar with it for a while.

If you want to dismantle the "Wu", it will be troublesome, and the household registration of the whole army will be changed. Of course, Shen Bing will not do this thankless thing.

Wei Wei was a little strange to see Shen Bing training like this:

"Vice-General, his subordinates are puzzled... Can this solve the armor problem?"

Shen Bing nodded:

"Exactly, do you have a better way?"

Wei Wei was speechless for a while, but was about to say something when he saw Yang Duanhe and the unkind looking Meng Wu approaching.

It turned out that Yang Duanhe was taking Meng Wu around and patrolled around. When he saw that Liang Jun was training, he went into the camp and watched for a while, but he didn't want to see Liang Jun holding bamboos in the school field, and he stomped Meng Wu with anger.

"This is the Liangjun?"

"This is the army trained by the Shen Bing who claimed to have defeated the Chu State Navy?"

"How can such an army go into battle?"

"How can military training be so trifling!"

Yang Duanhe was also puzzled, because he had never seen a situation where he brought Mao Zhu to the battlefield, so he found Shen Bing with Meng Wu.

"Vice general!" Yang Duanhe asked Shen Bing after a few steps: "You are..."

Shen Bing hurriedly greeted him and said:

"General, General."

"Subordinates are training soldiers."

Yang Duanhe knew that there must be a reason for Shen Bing's training, so he didn't rush to deny it.

But that Mengwu can't hold back:

"Absurd, have you ever used bamboo to train soldiers?"

"I wonder what the deputy intended for this move?"

Shen Bing replied:

"General Meng didn't know it. The Liang Army had no nobles, so there was no armor."

"In desperation, the only subordinates..."

Before Shen Bing finished talking about Meng Wu, he interrupted him:

"So you replaced the armor with bamboo?"

"Can it block arrows? Or can it block swords and guns?"

Shen Bing replied:

"Arrows may be unstoppable, but swords and guns..."

Meng Wu hummed and said:

"I would like to see how it can block swords and guns."

Shen Bing asked back:

"How to try?"

Meng Wu didn't speak, only waved his hand backward, and a team of guards rushed forward with their swords.

Of course, this is not a real battle, but a similar modern exercise.

Seeing this, Wei Wei hurriedly played the banner to prepare the soldiers.

When the soldiers saw that the guards with the bronze swords showed off, they immediately realized what was going on, and immediately drove the bamboo in the direction of the guards, and prepared for battle with a shout of might.

Needless to say what the result is.

Although these moso bamboos have not been equipped with barbs, the branches of moso bamboos are very tough, and these guards are holding short weapons in their hands. They only have to pass through the dense branches and leaves of moso bamboos to get close to the Liangjun...

But they were only halfway through, and the long spears of the Liangjun had appeared in front of them.

So it didn't take long for that team of guards to lose one after another, and they even touched the side of the Liangjun.

Meng Wu and Yang Duanhe couldn't help being surprised to see this.

In fact, it wasn't just them, Wei Wei also opened his mouth wide for a long time and didn't respond.

Yang Duanhe asked:

"Vice general, this battle is..."

Shen Bing replied:

"Going back to the general, this array is a mandarin duck array, and the bamboo is actually a wolf."

"It looks like a moso bamboo, but in fact it is a weapon, with iron barbs hidden in its bamboo branches."

"It's the iron hook that the subordinate asked the general for a few days ago, but it hasn't been installed yet."

Yang Duan said "Oh":

"I also said that those iron hooks are ship-making equipment, but they are used to make wolves..."

Then Yang Duanhe was taken aback again and looked at Mengwu Dao:

"General Meng, if the wolf's pit has been barbed at this time, and your guard rushed in like this, I'm afraid..."

Meng Wu's face was very ugly for a while.

What Yang Duanhe said was that if the barbs were installed, the team of guards rushed in frizzily, and several of them would inevitably be injured by the barbs.

Shen Bing then explained:

"The general has no idea."

"Before the Liangjun has no armor, it is taboo to fight close combat with the enemy."

"You cannot fight close to the enemy, you can only fight far away."

"There are wolves in front of this formation to block the enemy, and spears, bows and arrows in the back hurt the enemy. If the enemy gets through the wolves by chance, there will be swords and shields to deal with.

"So you can attack the enemy's shortcomings with your own strengths."

Yang Duanhe nodded in praise:

"It's a good one to attack the enemy's shortcomings with his own strengths, and a good battle."

Meng Wu, don't dissatisfied with yourself, and asked with a black face beside:

"What if the enemy attacks this formation with long soldiers?"

Shen Bing replied:

"Most of the soldiers of the Chu State are one foot and one foot long, while the wolves are one foot and three feet long."

"Even if the enemy attacks this formation with long soldiers, he will surely step into the wolves."

"At that time, there will be moso bamboo branches that obscure the eyes and barbs to avoid, and the moso bamboo branches can prevent them from piercing the army out..."

"On the contrary, our soldiers have no such drawbacks."

"How can the enemy's long soldiers break this battle?"

Yang Duan and Wen Yan couldn't help but nodded again and again.

Meng Wu's expression also became serious, and he asked again:

"What if the enemy attacks with a chariot?"

Shen Bing bowed his hand towards Mengwu and said:

"General, if the enemy is attacking with a chariot, we only need to stand the spear in the wolves."

Those were the spear formations in the "Bamboo Forest", and the Chu army on the chariot still couldn't see where the spear was.

Mengwu was also convinced by this.

He arched his hands towards Shen Bing with a shame:

"The deputy is very good at this battle, but the old man has no idea about Taishan."
