Alibaba did not brag about Mu Xijing. The strongest part of Wei Wuzhu was the weakest part. They were a group of professional soldiers, with ideals, discipline, dignity, and bottom line... It was completely different from butchers. They could fight bravely on the battlefield, but it was difficult to continue to kill unarmed slaves. Such a massacre was simply an insult to professional soldiers. [,w︽ww.23w♀x.co∷m

A total of 100,000 unarmed slaves can make people weak, and the blood of 100,000 people is enough to make Wei Wuzhu's bronze sword soft! Just when these Wei Wuzhu were exhausted, the Persian cavalry of three legions rushed up. The result is naturally conceivable. Pang Juan was able to retreat with his main force. It was already a blessing that it was unfortunate that it was not a loss of vitality because of a defeat.

"This kind of playing style is simply inhumane, Alibaba is just a demon!"

Pang Juan drank one by one and then complained to his nephew like a woman... He, the God of War in Wei, has always tortured his opponents on the battlefield, but now he has suffered a great loss from Alibaba. How can he accept it? He is now very confused. He worked hard to become an invincible iron army, but he lost to Alibaba's cruel means. Is he too kind and should learn Alibaba's methods?

After frowning for a long time, Pang Juan shook his head and completely threw away this terrible idea from his mind. General Pang Da is still very bottom line. Not to mention that Bai Dong would not allow him to do this, even if he could not pass this level. He wanted to be a sub-saint of the military ranks. What is Alibaba's thing? How can he learn from this demon?

"After finally, the Xijun came to help in time. The Bai family and Meng family members have taken us this time. The army did not collapse; although there was a small defeat, it did not hurt its vitality. I have calculated that more than 3,000 casualties were killed in this battle. Relying on the fine armor, most of the soldiers were only slightly injured, and 831 soldiers died in battle. Now all the bodies have been burned, and the Bai family will be responsible for transporting the bone breed back to Wei and letting them return to their roots. Bai Dong said that these soldiers are not for private battles, but for all the martyrs who died for China. If the King of Wei does not give rewards, he will ask the King of Zhou for these soldiers, so that everyone can get rewards, and their descendants will not be included in the poor family from now on!"

"Oh? He thought carefully... what are the responses of the soldiers?"

"Wei Yang's new law allows the Qin people to be awarded titles based on military merits. Which of the old brothers we have followed in Wei State is not jealous? Now Bai Dong is in the Zhou Dynasty, and the brothers who died in battle are likely to receive the reward from the King of Zhou, which is more 'right' than Wei Ying's reward; the descendants of these brothers who died in battle are also of aristocratic status at least, and since then they have become one of the nobles... Now I don't know how many brothers are jealous, and they want to die in battle are the ones who are the ones who are willing to die in battle are better."

Seeing that the wine in the wine pot was boiling, Pang Cong gently blew out the charcoal fire of the hot wine, poured a hot wine for Pang Juan, and lowered his voice and said, "Uncle. If we fight a few more battles like this, the old brothers we brought from Wei will have to be Bai's surname. Don't you worry?"

"So what? Is it good to let these old brothers continue to follow your uncle and nephew's surname Pang? Do you have the food and grass army to support them? Can you ask for rewards from Zhou Shi for them? Do you have the ambition of Bai Dong to support my uncle to realize my dream of conquering the world? If you don't have these skills, shut up quickly and stop saying such things in the future! Uncle, I am observing Bai Dong, but the more I observe, the more I feel convinced, but I am not going to rebel against him. Do you understand?"

"Follow me to see Bai Dong and your uncle Sun. The Pang family has never suffered such a big loss. How could this face be recovered..."

Pang Juan snorted coldly, stood up and walked out of the tent; this time his Wei Wushu suffered a great loss, but Sun Bin and the Yongqi Jingqi led by Bai Dong became the savior, which was not possible. It would be fine for Bai Dong, but this cheap junior brother was a good player in the court and military circle, and making money was invincible in the world, which convinced him, but he was unwilling to lose to Sun Bin again.

***

When Pang Juan's uncle and nephew walked into Bai Dong's tent, Bai Dong and Sun Bin were drinking tea. On the short table in front of him were a pair of saddle made of sheepskin and stirrups made of fine iron. When Pang Juan saw it, his eyes lit up. He walked over and picked up the saddles with one hand and the stirrups with the other, and gently stroked them with his hands, as if he was as gentle as stroking his lover.

"Senior brother is finally willing to see me. I've been waiting for a long time..."

Seeing Pang Juan's uncle and nephew walking into his military tent, Bai Dong laughed, took Pang Juan's hand and asked him to sit down, poured tea for him with his own hands, turned to look at Pang Cong, and signaled him to be as easy as possible. Now it is not a matter of opening a account to negotiate military aircraft, so there is no need to be restrained.

"We all underestimated Alibaba too much, thinking that the Persians were just like this; the victory of Shan Qiang further encouraged this kind of pride..."

Bai Dong looked up at Pang Juan: "I know my senior brother was dissatisfied and thought that Alibaba won because of cruel means, which caught you off guard. But the facts are really so? In the past two days, Senior Brother Sun and I have been studying the weaknesses of the Wei Wuzhu Square Formation. Senior Brother Pang is the Fang family of this Taoist family. I believe you should know better than us?"

"Yes, Alibaba's victory relies on the bloody tactics of the slave legion, but I have to admit that he is also a military genius and has seen through the biggest weakness of the Wei Wuzhu formation."

Pang Juan nodded slightly: "The Wei Wuzhang Square is known as invincible in the plains. That's because the front of the Wuzhang Square is indestructible, the soldiers are well-trained, the armor is complete, and many Chinese countries are engaged in chariot warfare and rarely use cavalry... Even if there are some cavalry, there are very few noble warriors like the Yongqi Jingqi, most of whom are used as scouts, bows and cavalry, to explore the enemy situation or harass the enemy formation. It is difficult for Chinese cavalry to form a strong impact force. It is simply delusion to break the Wuzhang Square."

"What the senior brother analyzed is, but the Persians are completely different. Persian war horses are taller than Chinese war horses, and their impact is far better than the Chinese cavalry. The Huats and Zimo is a nation of Horseback Mountain. They have grown up on horseback since they were born and are used to rushing at horses. Everyone has excellent archery skills, almost no less than the Rong people in the Western Regions. However, their number is far greater than that of the various tribes in the Western Regions. In the battle with Persia, although there were slave corpses that made the invincible Wei Wuzun physically and mentally exhausted, in fact, when they came into contact with the main force of Persia, the Wuzun formation did not collapse. However, the Persian cavalry did not hesitate to run a lot and mobilized the Wuzun formation with horsepower, and finally broke through the flanks. However, the cavalry under the senior brother who were responsible for covering the two wings was at a disadvantage in the battle with them..."

Sun Bin pointed to the blue flag inserted on the mud plate and said, "Senior brother, please see, the Persian cavalry, as I said, after the contact between the two sides, they took your soldiers around in circles? Their speed was fast, and the Wuzhu square formation could only change the formation. As a result, one was not careful enough, and the Persians broke through the flank of the phalanx from the northeast side. Their bows and arrows were actually not very good, and the soldiers in a linen armor could not be compared with the Wei Wuzhu, but they had too many cavalry... The arrow rain was like clouds, and you suddenly came and went, and it was elusive. Wei Wuzhu was not used to plateau combat, and was first worn out by the slave army. How could he not defeat him when he encountered such a flexible Persian cavalry?"

"I know all of these, so what?"

Pang Juan glanced at the mud plate. He was also a famous general in the contemporary world. How could he not know these principles? But the more famous generals are, the more stubborn they are, especially in the fields they are familiar with. He has been immersed in the Wei Wuzhang Square Formation for more than ten years. His elusive and accurate command art is also built on the Wei Wuzhang Square Formation. How could he give up easily because of a little setback?

"The army has no fixed force, and the water has no constant shape, let alone the Wei Wuzhang square formation? Wei Wuzhang is the most elite warrior. It is in the plains and can it be invincible in the world. But now it is in the Western Region grassland. Can the invincible formation continue to be invincible? In the future, the senior brother's army will have to cross the Pamirs and expedition to the West. Can the Wei Wuzhang infantry formation adapt to it?"

Bai Dong said seriously: "You must not be stubborn... In the past, China did not pay attention to the use of cavalry, and the senior brother was no exception. But after experiencing a battle with the Persians, did the senior brother still not see the power of the cavalry? After seeing the stirrup and saddle, the senior brother would also shine. I don't believe that the senior brother has no idea?"

"Cabinets have their own strengths, but they may not be able to beat my Weiwuzhang square formation; if you are willing to give me enough stirrup saddles, I will build an elite cavalry to assist the Wuzhang square formation, which will definitely be unfavorable..."

Pang Juan held the stirrup with one hand and the saddle with the other, and was reluctant to let go. This time he wanted to ask for enough stirrups and saddles from Bai Dong, and then quickly armed a new cavalry of no less than 8,000 people. However, he always had a deep-rooted concept that no matter how the cavalry developed, the Wei Wuzhang square formation could not be given up, and he never thought of completely changing the military system and turning the Wei Wuzhang square formation into a cavalry column...

No wonder he was reluctant to let it go. Wei Wuzun square accompanied him through more than ten years of military career, just like his little lover. How could he give up easily?

"What I want is not an auxiliary, but a complete change. Most of the Huats are cavalrymen. If they win, they will pursue their opponents, like rivers rolling; if they lose, they can retreat at any time. How can your infantry catch up? Wu Qi changed the chariot battle to the iron armored formation, which was enough to be recorded in history. Is the senior brother not interested in adding an iron armored cavalry to my China?"

"Don't think about it! It's absolutely impossible to ask me to give up the Wuzhang Formation!"

"Haha, senior brother, don't rush to refuse. It's not too late to make a decision after hearing my plan."

Bai Dong smiled, as if he was trying to lure the big bad wolf in Little Red Riding Hood: "I have an invincible cavalry array called the iron armored chain horse, which is used to break the formation and kill the enemy without any disadvantages. It only takes a thousand people to defeat more than ten thousand elite cavalry of the enemy. Is the senior brother really not interested?"
