The human sea tactics are not a professional military term.

Infantry soldiers in densely arranged hands with shield spears and short swords to strike the opponent's front. At that time, Persia, blast furnace, and Germanic people were all undisciplined troops, and they often defeated with one blow under the impact of such a phalanx. The Roman Empire swept across Eurasia with this tactic, turning the Mediterranean into the 6 lakes in Rome. However, in China, such tactics did not appear. Why? Because China's crossbow manufacturing technology was very good, such dense formations were no different from killing and arrows. Later, the Roman legions also enjoyed this treatment in the German forest. Under effective firepower strikes, dense formations were an effective way to increase casualties.

However, in order to deal with cavalry, infantry still needed dense formations for a long time. With the emergence of gunpowder and the application of cannons, linear infantry formations began to develop. Napoleon, the commander who was good at artillery, improved the tactics of horizontal attack at that time and turned into column attacks, that is, to invest as much force as possible in the front. After artillery fire cover, a assault can often break through the anti-French alliance. With these brushes, the Corsican dwarf swept across the European Great Six and fought to Moscow.

In the age of firearms, the tactics of the human seas regained his youth. Every commander thought about how to concentrate as many troops as possible to fight as soon as possible and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. In the 19th century, the Prussian military master, Damaoch, formed his general staff. The entire Prussian territory deployed military forces with railways as the core, concentrated troops and intensive attacks. The strange and positive changes in the war seemed to have come to an end, and what remains was the battle for the calculation of the staff and the railway's transportation capacity.

But a craftsman broke all this. He was Mark's core. The machine gun changed everything and swept the cavalry into the garbage dump of history. In the past, the French rooster, who tasted the sweetness of the sea of ​​people, was unwilling to believe that a small weapon could change the appearance of war. Their student, Japan, even defended the golden rule, General Nogi Nishinomiya, the 6th Japanese Army. It was he who created the Japanese "meat bomb attack" tactics. The Japanese army attacked the Lushun Battle day, suffered 50,000 casualties. During the fierce period, an average of 3,000 people were killed or killed every day. The Japanese corpses in front of the Russian position were piled up like mountains. People in the Russian military fortifications had to wear camphor masks to continue fighting...

Zhao Bing believed that whether in ancient times or modern times, using human sea tactics is the choice of weapons and tactics in a certain era. This tactic that exchanges quantity and huge consumption for other advantages, including time, space, offense or defense. In a sense, it can be simply understood as fighting less with more and bullying the few with the masses. Its basis is to concentrate superior forces and increase the overall strength with quantity.

In the era of cold weapons, the human sea tactics could be used to surround and consume the opponent's vitality. However, it is also limited and is restricted by various objective conditions. What weapons do you have to fight? Think about the ancient soldier in battle, except for a piece of armor, he was the sword and gun in his hand, and the archer only had two pots of arrows. Therefore, fighting with these simple weapons should be considered a heavy physical task, and the result is that his continuous combat ability is very poor.

In addition, ancient army mainly used harsh military disciplines and rewards to maintain morale. Although nomadic peoples were mainly cavalry, they were mostly illiterate. Of course, this situation also existed in the army of the Central Plains regime. Army with low cultural level and poor training conditions could only accept simple orders and use simple tactics, which led to their simple and rough tactics. When attacking, they were accustomed to repeated attacks with dense formations of cavalry.

In addition, the Mongolian army faced tight defenses and had significantly stronger firepower than its own Song army, so there was no better tactical means, so it formed a sharp contradiction between a large number of troops and weapons and a narrow charge road. The only way to resolve the contradiction is to adopt a dense storm formation. Multiple dense formations can achieve the goal of bringing the most commandos and accompanying firearms into the breakthrough in the shortest time, and attacking the depth with enough troops and weapons to tear open the breakthrough.

Although the breakthrough will bring more casualties when starting to break through, these losses are much smaller than the casualties caused by slow and comprehensive attacks. And as long as the breakthrough is successful, it is easy to take advantage of the situation to win. Therefore, the strict sense of the human sea tactic is not equated with the death. In nature, the release of the advantage in quantity in a short time is a survival instinct. There is a kind of sea turtle collectively rushing into the sea from the beach at a certain time, while sea birds can only prey on a certain number of sea turtles at this specific time. Finally, in the shortest time, the small sea turtle returns to the sea with the minimum loss rate.

If the Mongols faced with strong firepower, there was almost no chance of winning. However, in the era of cold weapons, not to mention the modern basic infantry tactics such as infantry and cavalry coordination, as long as they dare to charge and fight hand in hand, they can be called an "iron army". The Mongolian army rampant the world with this tenacious spirit and fearless fighting style, and caused a devastating blow to the Song army. For the defenders surviving near the breakthrough, the intensive attack of multiple echelons in formation was undoubtedly the nightmare in their memory, which continued to torture their nerves in the years to come, and Zhao Bing was no exception...

"Your Majesty, these Tartars are crazy!" Zhang Shijie said in a angrily pointing to the battlefield.

"Yes, they are just crazy!" Zhao Bing said with great effort to keep calm. At this time, several teams of enemy cavalry who were leading the attack braved the crossbows and fired continuously, and the dead and wounded fell off the horse. The people behind them filled in and rushed to the junction of the Song army, trying to open a breakthrough from here. Although the crossbows fired at the fastest, they still couldn't stop the impact of the cavalry at such a short distance, and the mines and obstacles arranged were knocked open by them with their lives to open up a path. The subsequent people kept throwing firewood and soil buns into the trenches, and even filled themselves in. This lifeless fighting style made Zhang Shijie, the veteran, very frightened.

"Your Majesty, can the rear army defend it?" Zhang Shijie saw the enemy cavalry rushing to the front of the formation. They did not think of leaving like before, but dismounted and shot against the Song army in order to suppress the Song army's archers and even defeated the defenders in front of them.

"Stop it!" Zhao Bing nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, if you go like this, the trench will be filled!" More enemy cavalry rushed into the trench through the blockade of the crossbows. They gathered more and more, and gradually advanced with war horses as cover. The shooting horses and soldiers pushed into the trench. It would not take long to continue this way to fill a way with the corpse. Although Your Majesty claimed that he could defend it, Zhang Shijie still couldn't feel at ease.

"Oh, if Sodu hadn't been wrong in tactics, it would have to take some effort to defend it!" Zhao Bing didn't know if it was because so many people died, or because Sodu was in vain, and sighed, "Su Du originally wanted to use the fast maneuver of the cavalry to break through the interception of the crossbows and seize the edge of the ditch to cover the infantry's trenches. However, he forgot that the cavalry was fast, but left the infantry far behind and was intercepted by rockets. It was even more difficult to keep up with the pace of the cavalry, so he could not quickly cross the trenches from the breakthrough opening of the cavalry. By the time they arrived, they were afraid that the cavalry would be dead and the breakthrough had been re-enclosed!"

"Well, Your Majesty can see clearly. If he uses infantry to break through obstacles and fill the trenches, the casualties may be greater. However, once the breakthrough is opened and the cavalry rushes into the formation, and detours behind the formation will cause chaos, forcing our army to give up the first line of defense!" Zhang Shijie stroked his beard and said, "But it's not good to be so insulted. He is just stupid, but he didn't expect that Your Majesty has a backup plan. I think that's the case, Your Majesty has a solution long ago!"

"Haha, Sodu is not stupid, and I am not a monster. It is because he lacks effective means of breaking the formation. If he had a crossbow in his hand, he would probably not have been like this. But now he has to use his flesh and blood to rush the death net we weave. Sometimes he has more blood and flesh, and he will win!" Zhao Bing curled his lips and smiled. It was because he took the lead and equipped the firearm first, so he had more choices, but Sodu didn't, so he would have to pay some price.

"What Your Majesty said is taught!" Zhang Shijie bowed and said.

"What does Shushu mean?" He confused Zhao Bing like this and quickly supported him.

"In the past, I thought that Your Majesty would be willing to bully you at a young age, but I always miscalculated you and humiliated yourself." Zhang Shijie bowed again and said with shame. "I heard what Your Majesty said today, but I did not despise you because of the repeated defeat of the Sudu. I still treated him with a fierce general, not humiliating him or scolding him, nor treating him as a thief. This is my fault!"

"Oh... So that's how it is!" Zhao Bing suddenly said, "Super Shu has such an understanding. The Tartars can travel thousands of miles, and it is not as simple as brute force to destroy countless countries. Their founding father Temujin had no need to say about his martial arts skills. He also has outstanding features in governing the country and the military. None of the brothers who founded his foundation, or the generals and heroes selected by him, were not loyal to him for life. None of the people he valued betrayed him. As the entrepreneurship master, no one has ever killed the heroes. In this regard, Temujin has indeed had other wise lords of the Central Plains."

"In addition, Temujin has always been clear in rewards and punishments. He has always rewarded all the heroes. He has never killed or cut off power. Instead, he has given the power to his loyal ministers with confidence. Moreover, his powerful generals have never had the concern of being too high to shock the master, and being killed by the rabbit and a dog. His accuracy in understanding people, his aura, and his sincerity are beyond the reach of emperors of all ages. However, such a person is still regarded as a barbarian in our eyes, treated like a savage, and allowed to grow stronger. He also thought that he could conquer him by using a little trick, but he lost his country!"

"What Your Majesty said is that it is precisely because those scholars are short-sighted and ignore the ambitions of the Mongols, and instead help the evildoers to abuse them. They only want to use them to defeat the Jurchens, but the result is that they drive the tigers in the front door and the wolf in the back door. After they seize the Central Plains, they covet Jiangnan. If the Jurchens are immortal, how can they suffer today's disaster!" Zhang Shijie seemed to be oppressed by the scholars, and couldn't help but complain, but he also felt that the little emperor was more interested in his appetite.

"Haha, those treacherous slandering the late emperor should be damned!" Zhao Bing certainly understood that there were not no knowledgeable people among the scholars, and they could not kill them all with one stick. He could only say perfunctorily, "Although Kublai Khan is not as good as his ancestor, he is also considered a heroic leader. His subordinates not only have strong generals like Boyan, Suodu, and Ali Hague, but also boldly use Dong Wenbing and Liu Zheng of these Han people. It is their help that they can break through Jiangnan. Only by facing the strength of the enemy can we be targeted, rather than being arrogant or fearing the enemy like a tiger!"

"Thank you for your advice!" Zhang Shijie said.

"It should make them very powerful!" Zhao Bing said, but his eyes did not leave the battlefield. Since Suodu put all his troops on the left wing, the feint attack on the right wing became increasingly weak, and it was finally difficult to organize the attack and retreat. The enemy cavalry on the left wing continued to fight hard. Although they advanced to the edge of the trench and crossed the trench with their courage, they also suffered heavy casualties. Without infantry reinforcements, all the people who crossed the trench were killed by the rear army and could not open the breakthrough. After the enemy infantry was bombarded by rockets, half of them rushed through the blockade and continued to advance, but they had lost the best opportunity, and Zhao Bing did not want to let them go like this.

"Let the large crossbows prepare to fire, target the left wing front, and add the shotgun at a distance of 400 steps!" Zhao Bing ordered. In fact, this large crossbow is more appropriate to call a stone thrower, but it is different from the traditional lever or counterweight stone thrower. Instead, it adopts the same principle as the crossbows and casts objects by torsion. After he built it, it was used as a "fortress cannon" and fixed on the forts in various ports in Qiongzhou to attack invading enemy ships and protect military ports. Later, it was equipped with various armies to destroy enemy cities, but this time it was not used to siege the city.

"Report to Your Majesty, all the artillery positions are ready!" Guan Tong reported.
