Chapter 137 Pinch soft persimmons
After the order to garrison the border was issued, Zhang Tie did not rush to dismiss the soldiers, but ordered them to train in the stronghold for a while, saying that there was still work to do in a while.

Then he took the 20 people who initially suppressed the bandits, including Yan Beichen and Wei Yan, to take 42 large boxes from the camp of the stronghold, walked into the stronghold, and came to the ironworks.

Wei Yan and the other 20 people were a little puzzled at first, but when they came to the closed space of the ironworks, they were thoughtful, and some guessed what Zhang Tie was about to do.

And then, what Zhang Tie did also confirmed their guess. A set of weapons and equipment changed from illusion to reality, and appeared in the empty ironworks.

An entire hour passed before Zhang Tie took out all the soldiers' equipment. Fortunately, the equipment obtained by the soldiers' upgrades were directly matched and only counted as one item. Otherwise, Zhang Tie would have spent a lot of time just taking them out.

Fortunately, Zhang Tie asked the soldiers to train inside the stronghold. Otherwise, just letting the soldiers stay outside the stronghold doing nothing for an entire hour would dampen the enthusiasm of the soldiers.

Zhang Tie and other 21 people, each carrying two large boxes, arrived outside the stronghold. When they met Bi Yongchun on the way, he told him to call all the soldiers and government servants who had just been outside the stronghold to regroup outside the stronghold.

There are more than 40 boxes, which are divided into three categories according to the contents inside, and are allocated according to the Jianghu arms, regular army and shooters.

After waiting for nearly a cup of tea, all the soldiers and government officials returned to their original appearance. The whole process seemed very fast. The system's transformation of the soldiers made these soldiers have a lot of impressions on the basic queue. Otherwise, It won't be that fast.

Zhang Tie also nodded in satisfaction with the soldiers' rapid formation, and winked at Yan Beichen and the others.

Yan Beichen and others, who understood the reasoning, moved the boxes and came to the soldiers and government servants in each barracks, asking the soldiers to come forward to receive their respective weapons and equipment.

The clothes of regular soldiers and shooters are already equivalent to leather armor in terms of defensive power.In terms of comfort, the regular army's [Black Turban Robe] is much better and does not affect the movement of the joints.

[Hand Knife] Although it is made of iron like iron knives, [Hand Knife] is much better than iron knives in terms of polishing, sharpness, or hardness.

Not to mention [Battle Bow] and [Square Hand Shield], both of which are not available to soldiers now.

After all the soldiers and yamen servants had been distributed, Zhang Tie's disciple equipment was distributed last.

After waiting for all the equipment to be distributed to every soldier and government servant, Yan Beichen and the others returned to their respective queues.

Holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, the guard of honor, Zhang Tie glanced at more than 700 soldiers, "Everyone, the equipment distributed today, I hope everyone will make good use of it, and use it to defend the border town and kill the enemy."

"I won't say too many extra words. Let's stop here today. Except for the centurions of each battalion, Yu Yingyou, you also stay. Except for the weapons, the old equipment that came down was handed over to the respective leaders.”

For these replaced equipment, Zhang Tie also has other uses, such as selling, this selling is not to sell to the system, but to sell to others.

No one would choose to sell it to the system, because the system is too bad at recycling. Zhang Tie still remembers that the weapon [Balanced Crescent Knife] in his father's hands cost several thousand when he bought it. System currency, but reselling it to the system can only get more than 300. The gap between them caused Zhang Tie a very headache.

After all the soldiers, except Yan Beichen and the other five, returned to their camps, Zhang Tie called Yan Beichen and the others over.

Zhang Tie didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained the reasons for keeping Yan Beichen and others.

"Each of you select 40 people from your own troops, and give me the list before the day after tomorrow."

All five of Yan Beichen clasped their fists and replied, "I obey. My lord (master) (lord)"

Zhang Tie waved his hand, "Let's all go back, get the list out early, then put all the old equipment into the newly built warehouse, and Yu Yingyou will arrange a few people to guard the warehouse."

"Yes."

After all five people answered, they each walked away and walked towards the north gate of Biancheng County.

Looking at the few people going away, Zhang Tie walked into the stronghold again, preparing to go to the training ground of the spearmen, and asked He Pojun how to use Fang Tian's painted halberd.

In the current stronghold, the training of the recruits has been completely handed over to He Pojun, Jiang Jianhua and Cui Shuangxi.

As the head officer, He Pojun mainly trained the pikemen and the formation of the other two arms. Jiang Jianhua was still teaching the archers, and the teaching of the sword and shield soldiers was arranged for Cao Shuangxi.

Cao Shuangxi won No.3 in the martial arts competition, and his strength was not much different from that of Wei Yan. Just because Wei Yan wanted to train the soldiers in his barracks, Zhang Tie also thought of Cao Shuangxi.

Passing by two training grounds along the way, Zhang Tie stopped for a while, and then walked directly to the training ground of the spearmen.

The training of sword and shield soldiers and archers is still step-by-step. They are all teaching the soldiers their personal force and simple arrangements. He Pojun will practice other complex formations and arrangements.

When they arrived at the spearmen training ground, He Pojun was explaining some details about the horse-rejecting array to the soldiers.

Pikemen are good at defending and counterattacking, especially when they use refusal horses in the formation. The spears stand tall and can effectively contain the cavalry's charge. They are well-deserved cavalry nemesis.

There is nothing to do when you are idle, so Zhang Tie followed the pikemen present and listened to He Pojun's mentality about how to quickly form a horse-repelling formation and when facing cavalry.

“The length of the lance (spear) in our hands is nearly two feet (six meters). If the enemy is cavalry when encountering the battle, we must resist the cavalry formation in order to defeat the enemy and win.

"Resisting horses is a line of one hundred people, lined up in three or five lines."

"The soldiers in the front group kneel down on the ground holding their spears, pointing the six-meter-long spear forward. The soldiers in the rear group point the spear forward with a flat end. The soldiers in the rear group place the spear on the shoulders of the soldiers in the front group and point it diagonally forward. refer to."

"People behind the third, fourth, and fifth teams stand with long spears. If the front team is killed, the rear team must immediately make up for it. This is called the rejection of horses."

"When the enemy cavalry comes to attack, they see long spears like a forest, and their blades are dense like hedgehogs. The enemy horses will be afraid of them when they see them. If they want to attack hard, they must cover the horse's eyes with a red cloth, so that the horses dare to fight."

"However, once the horses are blindfolded, the cavalry will lose a lot of power. So at present, there is no country where cavalry is used to charge the pikemen, and the gain outweighs the loss."

When He Pojun said that he was here, a spearman suddenly raised his hand and asked, "Then Instructor He, according to what you said, isn't this horse refusal formation invincible when facing cavalry?"

Shaking his head slowly, He Pojun reminded: "It is not in an invincible position. If the enemy is desperate and still rushes over, as long as one of the soldiers in the formation resisting horses is scared by the enemy's cavalry If you lose your courage, the entire horse-rejection formation will collapse."

He Pojun looked at the recruits seriously, raised his voice slightly, and reminded: "So, everyone, remember, fear will only make you face death faster on the battlefield."

And Zhang Tie at the side was also stunned, "It turns out that this is the horse-rejection formation. Sure enough, mentality is also very important on the battlefield."

Zhang Tie also agreed with He Pojun's last warning words.

On the battlefield, it is true that the more afraid you are, the faster you will die. Everyone knows that persimmons should be picked softly. Once you are afraid, you will naturally be in the eyes of others and have no resistance. The fish on the chopping board , don’t kill you first.

ps: For future updates and two updates.

Update: Daily around 1pm and 6pm.

Adding more: For every 10000 book coins rewarded, adding one more is really impossible. The handicapped party only has more than 4000 words a day, which is just enough for two pages, and an average of 4 hours per chapter. Shame.
