Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

These soldiers already have the foundation to grow into elite soldiers. In the future, as long as they go to the battlefield a few times, they will definitely become truly skilled soldiers.

However, you are not the main characters in today's training ground.I need you guys to verify another army...

A mysterious smile appeared on Ximen Qing's face.He turned around and shouted to Shi Yong: "Brother Shi Yong, it's time to start."

Shi Yong has been standing by the side of the stage and watching the five hundred regiment card hob players and spearmen in the training ground with cold eyes.At this moment, after hearing Ximen Qing's words, he immediately took out a horn from his body, and blew it toward the front with a "woo~woo~".

As soon as Shi Yong's horn blew, he heard a shout like thunder from the side of the military training ground opposite the parade platform: "Get out of the way! You bird people, get out of the way for the master!"

On the opposite side of the parade ground, those who gathered around to watch the excitement were the five hundred cavalry trained by Hu Sanniang.These people claimed to be the elite soldiers selected by Ximen Castle, and they followed the wife of the owner of the castle, so they inevitably developed some arrogance and temper.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted behind them, ignoring them, how could these cavalry soldiers bear it.They all rolled up their sleeves and turned around cursing.

When they saw the scene in front of them clearly, they hurriedly dodged to both sides in fright, not daring to say another word.

Standing behind them was a giant man with a height of nine feet, like an iron tower.

The giant man was covered with thick black iron armor and a heavy black iron helmet on his head.In front of the iron helmet was an iron mask glaring at King Kong, which completely covered the giant man's face, revealing only a pair of fierce eyes.

Chapter 159 The Tough Iron Turtle

Holding a thick iron rod in his hand, the giant man in iron armor suddenly squeezed away more than a dozen people and rushed into the training ground.

Those who were knocked away by him did not dare to complain, but scattered to both sides in panic.It was because behind the giant man was a group of soldiers in black iron armor.

"Oh~ha! Oh~ha!" This team of soldiers chanted in unison and walked into the arena with heavy steps behind the iron-clad giant.

On the parade platform, Jiao Ting asked Shi Yong, "Brother Shi Yong, is that man like the black iron tower Brother Jiang Zhong?"

Shi Yong replied: "Brother is right, that is Brother Jiang Zhong. Brother Ximen asked us to train a heavy infantry, and today is just a drill for all brothers to watch."

"Brother Tang Long worked hard to build a hundred pairs of full-body iron armor and fifty large shields, and equipped them with a hundred heavy infantry. Today I specially let them play to test the defensive capabilities of the iron armor and large shields." Ximen Qing said on the side.

"Brother Jiang Zhong is so majestic!" Jiao Ting praised sincerely.

After listening to Ximen Qing's words, everyone looked carefully and saw the nine-foot-tall Jiang Menshen walking majestically into the arena. Behind him, a hundred soldiers in iron armor lined up in two lines, carrying big shields, Holding a long stick, he filed in through the gap left by the crowd of onlookers.

These soldiers who covered their faces so that they couldn't see clearly were all stout men seven or eight feet tall, and each of them seemed to have brute strength.Although they were wearing heavy armor and carrying large shields, their movements were not slow.

Hong Zhen met him on the stage, and asked Shi Yong, "Where did Brother Jiang Zhong find all these strong men?"

Shi Yong replied: "These 100 people used to learn sumo wrestling from Brother Jiang Zhong, so every one of them grows tall and strong."

While the two were talking, Jiang Menshen led the team to the center of the venue, and stopped opposite the five hundred regiments of Hob Soldiers and Pike Soldiers.

Ximen Qing said to Hong Zhen: "Coach, why don't you practice it today and let your [-] infantry attack Jiang Zhong's [-] armored infantry?"

Hong Zhen opened his strange eyes and replied excitedly: "Okay! I also want to see if this armored heavy infantry is really superior!"

After saying this, Hong Zhen waved the flag to the audience, and the drums of "dong dong dong" sounded again from the audience.

This time, the sound of the drum was loud and chilling. After hearing the sound of the drum, the five hundred soldiers in the field retreated immediately, distanced themselves from Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry.Afterwards, they transformed into a conical charging formation against Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry.

Jiang Menshen's hundred heavy infantry were not idle either.When Shi Yong's horn sounded from the parade platform, Jiang Menshen gave an order, and the hundred heavy infantry stood in a circle around Jiang Menshen, facing the outside side by side, erected their big shields, and formed an airtight formation. formed a circular array.

Luan Tingyu looked at Jiang Menshen's hundred heavy infantry with great interest, and asked Ximen Qing: "I only know that Jiang Zhong is good at sumo wrestling, and he is good at punching, kicking, spearing and clubbing, but I don't know that he can also train soldiers! These military formation changes Did Professor Jiang Zhong give it to his subordinates?"

Ximen Qing said with a smile: "Brother Jiang and Shi Yong just trained them to sharpen their strength and the art of punching, kicking, spearing and clubbing. I taught them the art of forming an formation."

Although Ximen Qing has never read ancient military books and war strategies, he does not know the complicated formations such as the Nine Palaces Formation and the Eight Diagrams Formation in the legends.However, before crossing, he had watched many war films from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, and he had learned the formations shown in the films well.

After hearing Ximen Qing's words, Luan Tingyu also became competitive, wanting to see if the 500 men he and Hong Zhen trained could break through Jiang Menshen's [-] heavy infantry.

Luan Tingyu walked up to Hong Zhen and said to him, "Brother Hong, attack!"

Hong Zhen waved the flag violently, and the five hundred infantrymen in the training ground rushed forward together.These 500 people are in the shape of a triangle, with regiment brand hobmen guarding the outside, and three hundred spearmen in the center.

I saw [-] long guns pointing forward neatly and obliquely, forming a forest of guns shining with cold light, which looked really scary.

Seeing that the two teams were going to fight each other, the spectators at the training ground shouted excitedly.

Jiang Menshen smiled contemptuously when he saw the three hundred spears coming towards him.

The iron armor worn by Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry was imitated by Tang Long and several skilled craftsmen after studying the Yanling chain mail of "Golden Gunner" Xu Ning.

Although the imitation armor is thicker and heavier due to different materials, it is not suitable for cavalry, but it has achieved the purpose of invulnerability, and it is suitable for strong heavy infantry.

The spears on the opposite side looked scary, but they couldn't even pierce the armor on his body, not to mention that his heavy infantry was equipped with a man-high iron shield!

The Simon brothers said that as long as they block the first attack of the 500 people on the opposite side and keep the formation unchanged, they will be invincible.

Jiang Menshen is nine feet tall, much taller than those around him.Therefore, although he is in the middle of the ring formation, he can see the situation outside the formation.

Seeing that the opponent was about to rush to his front, Jiang Menshen yelled again: "Shou!"

The hundred heavy infantry heard this, and they all uttered: "Oh~ha!" loudly, desperately resisting the big shield in front of them.

At this moment, the five hundred light infantry under the command of Instructor Hong collided with Jiang Menshen's infantry circle like a tidal wave hitting a rock.The group cards, the hobs slapped and chopped, and the spears pricked and whipped, all fell on the large shield blocking their way.

"Oh~ha! Oh~ha!" Accompanied by a neat chant, Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry didn't take the lead to fight back, but just resisted the big shield to defuse the opponent's impact.

Ximenqing and others could clearly see from the parade platform that Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry ring formation took two steps back after being hit on the front, turning into a slightly flattened circle, defusing Hong Zhen's five hundred infantry soldiers from running. impact force.Afterwards, the ring array was adjusted into a circle again, and the outer shields were still tightly covered, leaving no gaps or flaws.

Obviously, the impact force of [-] infantrymen is not enough to break through the dense formation of [-] strong heavy infantrymen.They are like a hard rock, facing the wind and waves and standing still.

Hong Zhen's [-] infantry failed to break through Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry head-on, so they had to divide into two groups like a tide meeting a rock and rush to the rear of the ring formation from left and right, besieging Jiang Menshen's [-] heavy infantry regiments in the middle.

Jiang Menshen stood in the middle of the formation, seeing all this clearly.He roared: "Stick!" and gave new orders to his soldiers.

The hundred heavy infantry shrunk the formation even more tightly, making it difficult to break through like an iron tortoise.At the same time, they formed a team of two, one of them took control of the large shield, and the other held a stick as a spear, stabbing wildly from the gap exposed by the shield.

There was chaos outside the ring formation.

1 The sixty chapters have their own strengths

Outside the ring formation of Jiang Menshen's heavy infantry, the [-] light infantry commanded by Hong Zhen suffered a big loss in the head-on confrontation with his heavy infantry.

Because there was no armor protection on their bodies, the pikemen outside the ring formation were stabbed a lot by the heavy infantry with sticks.Although the injury was not fatal, it also made these pikemen grin their teeth and curse in pain.However, the spears they occasionally pierced through the gaps in the shields could not pierce the heavy armor of the heavy infantry, and there was no threat to the heavy infantry, as if they were tickling the heavy infantry.

Although the two hundred group card hob players had group card shields in their hands, they couldn't cover their whole bodies. From time to time, some group card hob players were knocked down by the opponent.However, the knives in the hands of the regiment hobmen were too short to touch the heavy infantry behind the shields, so they could only be beaten passively.

For a while, the five hundred light infantrymen were knocked down a lot, but they were helpless against Jiang Menshen's barbed iron turtle formation.

Hong Zhen looked at it on the parade stand, and was so angry that he handed the flag in his hand to Luan Tingyu, picked up an iron rod, and was about to jump off the stage to join the battle.

Luan Tingyu grabbed Hong Zhen, shook his head and said, "Brother Hong, there's no need to compete anymore! Brother Jiang's heavy infantry are showing mercy this time. Don't you see that they all use sticks as spears? If we really met on the battlefield, Brother Jiang's subordinates all use sharp spears, how many of our 500 people can stand outside their formation? This competition has been completely lost."

Luan Tingyu is the head coach of Ximenbao and Ximenqing's brother-in-law. He is not afraid of losing face, so Hong Zhen has no choice but to give up.
