The game of playing a few bear children has greatly inspired Marin-who said that the town cannot be ambushed?
Malham town is special because the north and south are swamps. Therefore, the Roman avenue of Malham has become a must. And Malham is a long town with houses built on both sides of the Roman avenue. Marin looked downstairs and found that he could ambush the enemy passing by the Roman road behind the roadside house or on the roof. If it was stoned from the roof ...
But Marin turned around the town and found no source of stones ...
It's no wonder that Malham is located deep in the swamp and has a lot of mud, which is the lack of stones. So, the idea of smashing stones from the roof is good, but impossible. Unless, demolishing the house may get a little stone. However, when the house was demolished, there was no place for the enemy troops to cover it. The enemy forces could see it at a glance, so there was no ambush.
However, after seeing a lot of firewood stacks for cooking behind each house of local residents, Marin had an idea in his mind ...
At first, when watching a movie called "West Chu Overlord", in the Battle of the Giant Deer, there were shots of the Chu army igniting the spherical haystacks on the hillside, rolling down the hillside, and rushing to the Qinjun military camp.
He Marin thought that if a large ball of grass was ignited on the roof, and then pushed down the roof and onto the Roman avenue, the enemy forces in the center of the road would definitely cause chaos. Best of all, put some oil on the haystack, it is difficult to put out ... When the enemy messed up, the Swiss mercenaries would kill from the side alley ... Marin laughed "Hey" ...
In the cold weaponry era, once the battlefield is in chaos, it is easy to be overwhelmed by the enemy and even slaughtered. What's more, the main battle this time was the strongest Swiss mercenary in the European cold weapon era.
Soon after, Marin rode back to the city of Groningen, demanding that Zieg take the Swiss mercenary west and follow him to ambush the Frisian army.
"Ambush? Just like the last time you attacked the French king?" Zieg was very interested. Although the Swiss were brave, they were not very good at planning. The best strategy of the Swiss was just to attack the back of the bold Charles army and launch a raid like the battle of Nancy. This is the limit of the Europeans' strategy in this era.
However, Swiss people like to learn, so Zig is very interested in how Marin uses tricks, and he also wants to learn a secret, so that he can use it in future battles.
As a result, Zige happily took 3,000 men, followed Marin, and rushed to the small town of Malham in the dark. At the request of Marin, the Swiss mercenaries drove out the residents of the town. Then a team of Swiss mercenaries gathered the old women, women and children in town to take care of them. The town's strong men are arranged to bundle the firewood behind each house, preferably into a ball or a cylinder, so that it can be easily dropped from the roof.
Malham is a low-lying coastal area, where there is more rain, and the houses are naturally inclined, with the middle high and the front and back inclined downward to facilitate the rain to slide down. This is very convenient for people to hide behind the roof. When the Frisian army passed the road, it suddenly ignited and threw it into the opponent's pile, creating chaos.
However, when Marin wanted to add some oil to the stubble grass ball, he encountered trouble ...
It turned out that in this era, ordinary Europeans did not have vegetable oil at all. Even a little animal fat is hardened and cannot be poured onto the grass.
Finally, in the town's largest restaurant and the rich households in the town, Marin found a few barrels of olive oil, but it was not enough. But Marin had no other choice but to make use of it, with less water on each bale of straw.
Next, Marin directed the town's strong men, and built two stone walls on each side of the road on the east and west sides of the town. Of course, these two stone walls are very unreliable and fall down as soon as they are pushed. But this is also intentional by Marin.
These stones were removed from broken houses in the town. The reason for building these two walls was to facilitate the overthrow, blocking the road with stones and blocking the Frisian army trying to advance eastward. Once the ambush began, Marin had no intention of letting any Frisian army pass. If they escape into Groningen, Marin will not be able to attack Groningen. So, stopping them all here is the best option.
After the flint wall fell to the ground, scattered rocks scattered on the ground will surely prevent the carriage and the horse from going. There may be a small number of infantry crawling through the rocks, but that is not the problem.
Marin's biggest goal in this battle was the nine Lord Frisian MPs. As long as you catch them, all goals can be achieved. As for running away a few infantry, it is not an issue at all and will not affect the overall situation. As a Member of the Legislative Council, it must be either riding or riding a car, and it is impossible to pass through the rocks. It is also unrealistic to let the old men dismount and climb over the rubble and then escape on foot. These masters, like modern people, are used to riding cars and riding horses, and are no longer suitable for walking. If they walk, Marin can also chase the Swiss. After all, aristocratic clothing is conspicuous and easy to identify. Moreover, when it comes to walking, these masters are certainly not the opponents of Swiss mountain people.
After fixing all the tied grass **** on the back of the roof on both sides of the road, Marin laid ambush in several larger alleys along the road. The task of these ambush soldiers is to intercept the enemy into several sections for easy elimination.
Because the town's Roman avenue is only a few meters wide, it can only accommodate four or five people in parallel or a heavy-duty horse-drawn carriage (a carriage for aristocrats). Therefore, when the Frisian army passed, it had to pass through a long snake array, and it could not be a square array. In this way, it is convenient for the ambusher to cut them into several sections and divide them up.
In order to hide the people and horses in the alleys, a few alleys with a large ambush hidden in the alleys, the alleys were erected by the Marin faction to build a simple fence to cover the sight. Once the battle begins, as long as the ambush pushes down the fragile wall, it can rush out. When he rushed out, it was the spearman who opened the road and knocked the enemy over the alley. The spearmen are flanked by two-handed swordsmen and halberd guards. After clearing a space on the street, the spearmen lined up back-to-back in two directions and advanced forward and backward.
The reason for arranging cover on both sides of the spearman is because the spearman has a poor side protection when he rushes out (the spear is too long, the street is not wide, and the steering is inconvenient). Therefore, first let the epee and the halberd clear a clear space, and at the same time protect the spearmen's wings. When the spear was cast in the direction of the street, everything went smoothly ...
In addition, a large number of Swiss are ambush behind the houses on the street. With a single order, they will quickly run out from behind the house and fight ...
In the middle of the night, Sauer's scouts came to report that the Friesland army had been repaired and would continue eastbound early tomorrow morning, arriving in Malham about noon tomorrow.
So, the next morning, Marin began to practice ambush after sending a small number of soldiers and horses to send the townspeople to the eastern village for resettlement. The main exercise project is how to make the Swiss grow up quickly after rushing out of the alley. Then, how to resist the possible counterattack of enemy forces on both sides ...
After half a day, the UU readers at www.uukanshu.com basically grasped some ambush essentials. Although not perfect, it was barely enough. After all, this is an ambush of the enemy at noon, not an ambush in the middle of the night, and the requirements are not so high.
After lunch, Marin sent people to close the doors of all the houses in the town, and all people evacuated to the designated ambush site ...
The Frisian army seemed to have eaten in a village west of Malham. At this moment, it was slowly walking towards Malham with the pace of a fasting walk ...
After entering the long street, the Frisians found that the houses in the town were all closed, but they didn't care much ...
Because, the army in this era is a little bit robbery. So it is not surprising that the residents saw the army close the door in fear.
But when the Frisian army coach Sivag rode into the middle of the street, he found many things wrong ...
It stands to reason that it is normal for residents to hide when the army crosses the border. However, residents should be curious about the transit of the army. Therefore, there are always residents secretly observing the army through concealed windows and door slits.
Alas, Siwag walked half a street and found nothing like this. The whole street was very quiet, as if no one was there. So Sivag waved and shouted:
停 "Stop! Send someone to the roadside house to see what's happening, why isn't anyone?" With a command, the Frisian marching stopped.
Far away, Marin, standing on the top floor of the church on the east side of the town, saw this scene through a telescope and knew it was broken. So, he didn't wait for the convoy of the nobles to go to the center of the town, but he had to ring the church bell in advance ...
