From Soldier To Emperor

Chapter 166: Morale charge

The flags are fluttering, the gongs and drums are noisy.

  As the distance narrowed, Richard finally saw clearly what the first wave of Tufan soldiers from the other side looked like.

The Licha’s army formation is still the old way of the Tang army. The infantry phalanx is in the center. The front row is the spear shield formation, and the back is the archer. The wings are sword and shield soldiers. The infantry phalanx is guarded by the Ming Dynasty frontier cavalry. .

  The Ming Dynasty side army fine cavalry on the flanks can not only resist the enemy's flank roundabouts and large-scale maneuvering raids, but also can insert the enemy's flanks when the battle situation turns, expand the result of the battle, and even make a final word.

   As for the fifth army battalion infantry and the Shenji battalion infantry, Richard was used as a reserve team. The field army with nearly 10,000 people was in front, enough to block the enemy's first few rounds of impact.

   Since the expansion of the three field regiments of the Field Corps is joined by veteran-level descendants, the combat effectiveness has been reduced very little, and Richard will use all the captured iron armor to arm them, and the overall armor rate has exceeded one-third!

  The most core and main force of the First Field Regiment is that all its members are dressed in iron armor, and the officers among them are even medium-sized iron armors!

   The main body of the field army is composed of veterans who have experienced several battles. In this area of ​​the Western Regions, it is enough to be called a strong soldier.

   After all, in the Western Regions, the serious Datang regular field troops have disappeared...

   was either broken up or incorporated. Basically, the entire Western Regions could not find a purely regular field force of the Tang Dynasty.

   It can be said that excluding the unscientific combat power of Richard Dao soldiers, the Han armed forces in the entire Western Regions, compared with the time when Anxi Duhu Mansion was still in Anxi, have dropped by a large level. The instigator of all this is the Tufan Kingdom!

   If it were not for the provocation of the Turpan Kingdom and the ambitions of warlords everywhere, the essence of the Datang regular army in the Western Regions would not be exhausted in such a short period of time!

   Of course, Richard didn't feel wrong about this. If it weren't for the Datang regular army field troops in the Western Regions to wipe out the internal conflicts, he would not be able to siege the city and seize the land smoothly!

  Look at the combat effectiveness of the first field regiment composed of the diluted Datang regular army soldiers, and Richard can see how terrifying the complete Datang regular army’s field troops are!

The horn of    abruptly sounded, and when the line of soldiers on the opposite side approached the range limit of Tang Jun's strong bow, they began to charge!

   For the Tufan Kingdom, Tang Jun is a very good teacher, but it's a pity that the Tufan Kingdom is too poor. You can only learn from the tactics of Tang Jun's army.

   The Tufan army in the charge had no iron armor at all. They were all Tufan tribal warriors wearing ordinary cloth robes.

   However, these Turpan tribal warriors are all selected warriors. Apart from their poor equipment and discipline, they are not much less courageous than the armored soldiers of the Turpan Kingdom.

The formation of tens of thousands of assaults is very scary. In order to lengthen the cross-section of the battlefield as much as possible and not be half-encircled by the opponent, the depth of the field army arranged by Richard is very shallow, and the front line is drawn very long in order to resist the spit of the mountains and plains. The charge of Fan tribe warriors!

   "Huh, it's no wonder that the Tufan Kingdom can only be a vassal of Datang. The posture of these Tufan soldiers is not much better than that of Green Skin."

   Richard saw the Tufan tribe warrior who rushed to the sky but had no formation to speak of, and sneered dismissively.

   At this level of the Turpan army, if it weren't for the number advantage, it would not even have the qualifications to fight against his field army, let alone fight against Richard's system headquarters.

   Today's Richard indeed has something to be proud of.

On the cold weapon battlefield, the commander-in-chief basically lost control of the front-line combat troops at the beginning of the battle, because it is difficult for the messengers to enter the front-line combat area to find the front-line officers to convey orders. Even if they succeed, the front-line officers are difficult to restrain. Soldiers who have fallen into fierce fighting.

   Because of this, retreating on the battlefield is a taboo. You must leave behind strong enough troops, otherwise it is easy to turn the retreat into a defeat!

   "For Songtsan's sake, kill!!!"

   At this time, Songtsen Gambo has accumulated a deep prestige in the Western Regions War, and many Tufan tribe fighters regard it as a symbol of the rise of the Tubo people!

   Therefore, the fighting morale of the Turpan tribe fighters is very strong!

   Amidst the screaming and killing sound, a continuous rain of arrows rose from the ground, and the deployment rate of the strong bow of the field army was not low. Except for the shield array in the front row, all the archers behind began to throw hurriedly!

Tufan tribe warriors have no armor at all. Most of their weapons are swords, guns, shields and swords. Although there are many good shooting Tufan tribe warriors who fought back, the Tufan tribe warriors who charged under the rain of arrows suffered a lot of casualties. .

   After three rounds of arrow rain, the casualties of the Tufan tribe warriors in the tens of thousands of assaults exceeded 4 figures!

   However, the morale of the Tufan tribal warriors continued to rush towards the front of the field army, and the torrent was like a truck sprinting at full speed, crashing into the shield of the field army!

Rows of Tufan tribal warriors looked at the spear forest in the gap between the shield formations, and rushed to slow down, but they were pushed up directly by the crowd crowd behind them. Even if they protected their shields, they still had no resistance. Pierced into a sieve...

  Under such a large-scale charge~www.wuxiahere.com~ the soldiers dare not stop at all, otherwise they will either be pushed down and trampled to death, or they will be crowded into human shields...

  Because of this, the front-row soldiers on the cold weapon battlefield can often get higher salaries, and the wartime subsidies are also more generous!

   Some highly disciplined teams even require basic-level officers to stand in the front row and take the lead in the charge.

   There is no doubt that the officer taking the lead in the charge will definitely give the soldiers under his command a great morale boost!

   Even Shangguan is so desperate, what reason do you have for paddling?

   And in this case, the confidence to enforce the military law is also more sufficient.

   Rows of Tufan tribal warriors kept hitting the shield wall of the field army. At the same time, the Tufan tribal warriors behind were also advancing while shooting arrows, causing a certain amount of lethality to the field army soldiers behind the shield wall.

   The Tufan tribe warriors who crashed into the shield wall were not without resistance. They stabbed cold weapons such as spears and broadswords from the gap in the shield wall to kill the enemy. Although the exchange ratio was very touching, they could eventually cause damage to the enemy.

The morale of the Tubo people was beyond Richard's expectation, and I don’t know what ecstasy soup Songtsen Gambo poured into them. These Tufan tribe fighters who were obviously used as cannon fodder to consume Richard’s strength to open up the battlefield, turned out to be cruel Still persisted under the casualties!

   Soon, the Tufan tribe warriors successfully broke the front shield wall with a cost much higher than the enemy's casualties!

  In Richard's vision, the second wave of thousands of tribal warriors has already stepped away...
