,nbsp; Chapter 285 The Macedonian phalanx combat method

ps: Khan, the Great Sage is so beautiful. I have been watching it for a day, and I have almost finished reading it. The update has been polished until now.

ps1: Let’s wait until I’ve finished sleeping and fight Zhayin for three hundred rounds at night!

Macedonian attack this time was a direct attack to the death. Alexander, who was annoyed by the two legions, struggled with the Macedonian army of 50,000 people, and led a catapult cart, the Macedonian infantry phalanx and the Macedonian cavalry phalanx to attack Fangcheng.

He had just experienced a bloody battle here. Before he could react, he was beaten to death by the overwhelming stone bombs and ice bombs.

Alexander, who did not fight with cavalry, gun-dropping troops, and the opponent's heavy shield warriors and heavy crossbow soldiers, showed excellent command art. Although the ice bombs that had been prepared for a long time were not as hard as stone bombs, they were not something that humans could withstand. Moreover, ice bombs were much lighter than stones in weight, which reduced the logistics pressure.

When an ice bomb like a meteor fell from the sky and smashed Renault's subordinates into meat paste, Renault realized that another army was coming to attack him.

It’s like anger arises from the heart and evil arises to the courage.

Why did you think that this year's life is infringed on Tai Sui? It just passed the Chinese New Year and Dracula twice. Although he had paid the price, it still made him very disgusted. The Macedonians who came this time made him even more angry.

When he ordered the soldiers and soldiers to come out of the city, he knew that he was wrong.

The opponent's 50,000 troops were unfolding, as if hundreds of thousands of people. The huge catapult cart was still constantly shooting ice bombs when he ordered his troops. For the food of 50,000 people, the transportation of such a small amount of ice bombs was nothing. In addition, the weather was cold, and now he used a water bag to solidify the water. After two hours, he could make a large number of ice bombs, and there was no problem of no ammunition. He was now carrying heavy shield infantry and spearmen and heavy crossbowmen here. The crossbow arrows were definitely not reaching the opposite side. They were almost all beaten. What else could he do? Attack!

When the first time they asked for an attack, the heavy shield infantry were a little confused. They were so rude that they didn't know how to attack. How could infantry, who didn't even understand whether they even held the shield in front of them or placed beside them, do a good job of attacking?

Moreover, the infantry walked fast, where could the heavy crossbow soldiers and crossbow bags be carried to keep up with the heavy infantry? After walking less than fifty meters, the two camps began to divide the two camps. More importantly, the heavy shield soldiers and snorkeling in front were completely ignored.

Generally speaking, they only need to guard their own face, but attacks and combat are not just about this!

When their distance exceeded 200 meters, the Macedonian cavalry regiment moved.

Under Alexander's leadership, the cavalry regiment riding a war horse rushed out from both sides of the Central Infantry regiment, and with the strange voice of Alexander, he was hiring heroically on the entire battlefield.

Because the king entered the battlefield, the morale of the entire Macedonian Legion increased greatly, as if he had taken stimulants, he made great achievements, and it was definitely at this moment!

"Kill ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The knights did not attack the front army. Instead, they rushed directly to the heavy crossbow soldiers behind them through their wings. The heavy crossbow soldiers were already running panting and panting. They didn't expect that the other party did not directly break their team head-on. They hit the two wings in such a arc. They were panting and they even struggled to lift the crossbow arrows. How could they shoot accurately? The first round of arrows either shot randomly or shot into the sky, which made them even more scared that they found out that they were actually.

Even the strength to lift the strings is gone! (Don't think that crossbow arrows are just a mechanical siege. Crossbow arrows are indeed stronger than bows and arrows, with a longer range, and the armor-piercing effect is much better. But the same is true that crossbow arrows need to lift the strings is definitely more than ten times more laborious than bows and arrows. Otherwise, why are the crossbow arrows rarely equipped by the Centre Team? The Centre Team's equipment can keep up, but everyone thinks that the archer troops are the best, and it is not worth it to spend so many elite troops to form elite troops.)

When Alexander easily cut into the opponent's camp like a knife cutting butter, the two oblique "knifes" easily cut the opponent into a triangle, and then joined forces to break through the opponent's crossbow and arrow troops directly.

There were still five thousand cavalry this time, but these five thousand were definitely not comparable to Dracula's new recruits. Although Dracula's new recruits were formed by elite, well-eating, strong, and very good at equestrian Roman citizens.

But Alexander's cavalry defeated the soldiers of the Holy Legion of Thebes!

Before this, the entire Egyptian region from the Nile River to Afghanistan surrendered to the tyranny of the Thebes Holy Legion. The three hundred-year-old Holy Legion conquered half of Europe for a period of time, but was later beaten back.

But this also shows the power of the Holy Legion of Thebes, and the Alexander Cavalry, which can directly defeat the Holy Legion of Thebes, is naturally the elite among the elite.

In fact, because he kept shouting to the desert nations, Alexander absorbed many foreign knights. Once these elite soldiers who traveled around the world entered the Cavalry regiment as instructors, the chemical reaction brought was violent, and the quality of the entire Cavalry regiment showed an upward trend that could be seen by the naked eye. Alexander easily cultivated this cavalry regiment as his own personal army.

This is not, just pull it out as a beheading tactic.

But what he forgot wrong was that the other party's leader was not in the crossbow archery force, but in the center of the light spearmen.

Because of the ice bomb, there is no difference between having a shield or not. However, Rabies Renault is extremely self-healthy, but he intends to rush into the opponent's camp to take a beheading tactic.

Unfortunately, the leaders of both sides had the same idea of ​​fighting, but they missed the opportunity to fight with each other.

However, in this way, Renault's crossbow and arrow troops were divided by the opponent, and the loss was a blink of an eye, and everyone was shocked.

Everyone was watching Renault. Renault gritted his teeth and came up frantically without caring about his crossbow troops: "Assault! Assault me! If you break into the enemy a hundred steps, the enemy will not be able to use stones!" That's right, even if you shoot at that distance, you may hit your own people. After all, the Huihui cannon is not a magical weapon, and no matter how big the catapult is, it cannot hit people at close range.

After all, war still depends on people.

And at this time the Macedonian phalanx moved.

The Macedonian phalanx is said to be a light infantry phalanx, but its combat power is definitely not weaker than that of the Roman heavy infantry phalanx. Its movement speed is not only fast, but the speed of changing the formation is also extremely fast. Kelar came here with the intention of forming an alliance this time, but it is not without looking at the power of the Macedonian phalanx that has been famous all over the world for thousands of years.

Someone once said online that it would be a dream to dispatch a complete Macedonian phalanx.

This is naturally extremely funny, because war is originally based on the commanders of both sides. Could it be that the Romans would not have dispatched the Macedonian phalanx?

However, it is also possible to see the influence of the Macedonian phalanx in later generations.

This is almost the first battle formation in the West that has been circulated in detail, and it is also the only square formation that cooperates with multiple military types with infantry and cavalry. It can almost be said to be epoch-making and the only battle formation that can be comparable to the ancient Chinese square formation. This can also be regarded as a painful pain in the hearts of Westerners.

What Kailar really expects is to see the real power of this Macedonian phalanx.

Only he could see through the photons in the air that Alexander, who was thousands of miles away, took out his calf horn and whispered, because of his huge lung capacity, even here thousands of miles away, the rhythm of the calf horn could be heard.

"Drink! Drink! Drink!" The Macedonian infantry phalanx walked forward three steps and then began to jog slightly. The opponent was a little confused when he ran away because the opponent had never thought that the person on the other side would run towards him. What should he do? Or rush towards the enemy on the spot or rush towards the enemy?

I couldn't help but look back at Renault. I had usually ordered a war drum or a horn, but now everything is so quiet. I only heard the breathing of my comrades around me and the fatigue in my body, but the war drum and horn did not ring for a long time.

Everyone was waiting for the commander's order, but Renault's face turned pale and could not give orders, and he separated the two armies, his drums, his rear army, his food and his trumpets were all thrown there.

The only way to eliminate now is not to go back to rescue the rear army, but to break into the 50,000 army directly.

So what if there are too many people? There are too many things in history that there are too many attacks. He believes that with the quality of the Carthaginian army, he can definitely penetrate the opponent's formation.

As long as the opponent's formation is disrupted, no matter how many 50,000 people are, it will be the source of chaos, and the opponent's cavalry troops will definitely not be able to pursue them.

The plan is good.

But blindly overestimating that all you get is the bitter fruit of failure. Although you don’t remember who said this sentence, it really makes sense!

Only when the two square formations in the first encounter movement showed different situations. The Macedonian square formation was moving suddenly stabbed a spear of two meters long, and the spear penetrated the throat of the first row of shield warriors through the gap between the opponent's shield v.

In fact, heavy shield warriors are excellent for cavalry, but for elite spear soldiers and spears with a spear distance of 2.5 meters, soldiers can accurately control the landing point of the spear. Even if they do not directly pick the heavy infantry, spears with a long distance of a few steps forward can directly pierce into the body of the light-armored spear soldiers behind. The opponent's heavy infantry needs to face their own slightly shorter spears, the second row of spears!

What an excellent tactic!
