He had been dealing with Shiwu for many years, and he thought he was familiar with these nasty things. Unexpectedly, he miscalculated this time. They did not engage in sneak attacks, but led troops to attack the city openly.
After a second thought, I understood what Shiwu had planned.
Although a sneak attack can reduce damage, it is far less shocking than defeating the border barrier head-on and breaking through the border city defenses - even if the border barrier is as brittle as tissue paper - Shiwu is planning to use them as a stepping stone...
Haha, I didn’t even look at whether I was wearing shoes!
Will it burn your feet if you step on this stepping stone?
Chu Jie asked again: "How many people will go out?"
Although Shiwu has advertised 200,000 elite troops this time, after deducting the cooks and falsely reporting the number, the real combat strength is at most 80,000 or 100,000. And how many of these can be deployed is related to the pressure of today's battle.
Big or small.
The scout said: "Guan Qi's army is arrayed in formation, and there are 80,000 of them."
"Eighty thousand? Haha, did you pull out everything that can be beaten?" Chu Jie chuckled, then crushed the paperweight on the desk with an expressionless expression, and casually scattered the "ashes" of the paperweight, turning it into a weapon.
He said quietly, "If you want military merit, come with me!"
Outside the account——
Drums are beating and flags are flying.
Standing on the city wall, the cold and biting wind beat everyone mercilessly. Chu Jie and a group of generals who came to climb the city wall, and when they saw Xun Zhen and Chu Yaokang coming in a hurry, the hand holding his heart seemed to loosen, letting him
He was able to breathe.
only--
Xun Zhen and other scribes always had their brows furrowed.
It's not that we're afraid of these black heads outside the city wall, but that we're wary of their formation. At first glance, they look like a group of stragglers fighting on their own, standing wherever there is space. They're so messy and shapeless that they look like they can be swept away with a single charge.
But upon closer inspection, we discovered something strange.
It looks chaotic, but actually there is order within the chaos.
It's not so much a random arrangement by people who don't understand military formations, but it's more like someone who has done it deliberately to prevent them from seeing anything. The key to winning or losing a war has never been how top-notch the brave warriors on one side are, even if they are twenty-level thugs.
Hou did not dare to boast that he was invincible. No matter how brave and brave the warrior was, he would be torn into pieces when faced with an army that gathered thousands of troops.
The key is how to gather morale and how to deploy the morale in the military formation. Ordinary soldiers have no courage, but they also have "qi", which is called "morale". "Morale" can mobilize the power of heaven and earth. One person is like a drop of water, but thousands of people can
Gathering together into a sea of rivers.
Then use the military formation as a medium——
Since recorded history, the strongest military formation once forcibly killed a 20th-level Chehou Hou on the battlefield. It should be noted that in the more than two hundred years since the advent of the Thief Star, there have been only three 20th-level Chehouhou, all of them.
A brave person who can defeat thousands of people.
Xun Zhen and the others were talking about something in low voices.
Shiwu's secretive approach to the military formation gave them an ominous premonition. Xunzhen had been in Shiwu for the longest time and had the best understanding of Shiwu. He said: "I had been with Xingning's incarnation in Shiwu before.
Wu met Shiwu several times, and the latter mentioned that if they were to confront Shiwu in the future, they would have to be careful about their military formation. At that time, I thought he was making a fuss out of a molehill..."
Now it seems that the other party must have heard something. But he did not say it directly. This only shows that the latter is not sure about the information in this area and dare not speak nonsense to avoid Xun Zhen misjudgment. It can also be analyzed from the side that Shi Wu
The confidentiality work is very thorough.
Chu Yao frowned.
"He asked you to be careful of Shiwu's military formation..."
If you weren't on the battlefield, this would be considered a joke.
As we all know, whether it is Shiwu or Beimo, any content related to Yanling was obtained bit by bit from inside the pass by using various methods, either by stealing teachers, apprenticeships, studying abroad, or using inducements.
, mostly fur.
The real elites are all in the hands of aristocratic clans and royal nobles, and the inheritance method is extremely strict.
What good things can Shiwu learn?
Are you still doing this cover-up?
Chu Yao asked Master Yu.
"Have you seen this formation before?"
Chief Yu shook his head and said displeasedly: "Previously, we either set up a formation and fought, or carried out sneak attacks and deceptions... Most of the leading generals were Su Shiyilu. This guy used Yonggu Pass as a grindstone for military training. Every few days
He comes here to fight once a month. The military formations used are the most common and easy to mobilize, nothing special. The military formations are simple, but when deployed in his hands, they are extremely powerful."
Chu Yao asked in reply: "Will he be the master this time?"
Chief Yu: "Most likely, most of Shiwu's military power is in his hands. If he doesn't nod, this battle won't be fought."
He has been dealing with Su Shiyilu for some years, but this is the first time he has seen such a casual and unorganized formation.
It made him wonder——
Su Shiyilu was finally fucked off by Shiwu Wangting?
Isn't he the commander this time?
At this moment, Kangshi spoke.
I don’t know why, but his face looked solemn and gloomy, his eyes were sharp, and he burst out with a terrifying coldness: "I heard Yuan Liang say a rumor before that before the rise of Shiwu Royal Court, it was the weakest among the three major tribes of Shiwu.
I don’t know where I got the opportunity, and with the help of mysterious, treacherous and powerful military tactics, I successively swallowed up two other tribes and integrated Shiwu in one fell swoop!”
Xun Zhen said: "Is there anything else?"
By the way, he hinted to himself that "this person is not the best person", and his evil plan is not worthy of being compared with that of his cousin from Ji Shou's family.
Kang Shi took a deep breath and sneered: "It's true, I can even guess how Shiwu got this opportunity!"
Chief Yu remembered: "I have heard of this rumor, but the outside world only thinks it is Shiwu Royal Court bragging. Moreover, Shiwu has repeatedly sent troops to invade Yonggu Pass, and has never seen it once. If there really is such a military formation,
Why didn’t you use it before?”
Kang Shi said: "I don't know."
But he only knew that his cousin died because of this military formation!
The little saint Qi Yuanliang was trapped in the stone formation back then!
"If this is really the military formation, I'm afraid there will be trouble." Kang Shi's tone made Xun Zhen and others' hearts sink. He continued, "I know some information about this military formation. This formation should have eight gates and eight formations.
The central formation is the main formation, there are nine main formations in total, and it is divided into sixty-four small formations. The large formations are nested within the small formations, and the formations are in harmony with each other, and there are dangers everywhere. Once you enter the formation, you will have a narrow escape..."
Things in the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas are never simple.
"Eight Gates and Eight Formations?"
A few people murmured, and then looked at the enemy troops under the city wall, and they really saw some order in the chaos.
They looked at each other.
Without waiting for them to say anything, Kang Shi pointed to the military formation below and said, "This broken thing will be broken today!"
There was a bit of gritted hatred in his tone!
Shiwu ignored so much.
One person was killed in the formation.
Still a familiar face.
"Chu Jie, come down and have a fight!" This extremely familiar tone seemed to be inviting a brother to go out for a skewer and drink.
Calling him the formation leader as soon as he comes up is quite arrogant!
Chu Jie sneered: "Barbarians also know how to fight against generals?"
