The flag covers the sky and can cover the sun, moon and stars.
It turned white in the east, and an army of more than 70,000 people was already standing outside the city on the northwest side of the capital.
The 70,000-strong army was divided into five columns of men and horses, arranged according to the formations of the Nine Palaces, Bagua, Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. It looked shocking from a distance.
People who didn't know it thought it was a giant dragon with arrogant claws that landed outside the capital and was circling on the ground.
For fear of making a mistake, the 70,000 people who left the city in the middle of the night had already made two offensive and defensive changes in the Dragon Gate Formation relying on the changes in the formation's center flag.
All was done in silence.
Everything seemed to be exactly as Liu Mingzhi expected. The fourth drum sounded, and the 70,000-strong army was divided into two formations and left the city from the north gate and west gate. In less than half a stick of incense, they encountered the enemy's patrolling scouts.
When the rebel scouts saw such a large number of guards leaving the city, they rushed to report to Wanyan Lie and others.
The rebels, who had been exhausted by the exhaustion strategy, not only did not take the initiative to attack, but retreated for about five miles in confusion and panic.
There is no other way. Fighting at night is a taboo for military strategists. It is difficult to tell the enemy from me in the dark and blinded by fire.
In addition, the rebels did not know what conspiracy the defenders were playing, and were afraid of falling into a trap.
After all, the successive alienation schemes had left a deep impression on them. If the garrison generals on the city wall tried some other tricks, the rebels, who had long been exhausted by the sound of drums on the city wall, might really stumble.
There was no other way. Although Wanyan Lie and the others knew clearly that the sound of drums and charges on the city wall were a ruse to deplete their own morale, they could just ignore it and let their soldiers rest peacefully.
However, Wanyan Lie and the other two people didn't dare to bet, because if something turned out to be true, they would be doomed.
The rebels who bear the brunt will surely suffer heavy losses.
The three of them have evil intentions and each have their own plans. Naturally, they don't want to see such a result.
Therefore, we could only take advantage of the bright night to retreat about five miles.
It can only be said that everything is a coincidence and coincides with Young Master Liu's plan.
Liu Mingzhi held the jade seal in his hand and looked at the fifty Jin soldiers who were proficient in Han and Jin languages: "Send thirty cavalry scouts to find out the enemy's traces, make fires and cook in the shortest possible time to replenish physical strength, and go all out to meet the enemy's arrival.
"
"It's an order."
"Jelühu obeys the order."
"The end will be here."
"When you give an order to the three armies and move the flag, anyone who dares not to obey will be executed."
Yeluhu hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth: "Yelühu has an order."
Looking at Yeluhu's retreating back, Liu Mingzhi smiled disdainfully: "It seems that you still don't want to give up. You want to stay by my young master's side and watch the changes in the formation flag. What you think is quite beautiful."
"Song Qing, Qin Yong, Su Chen, Chen Ke, Fan Yahui, military orders are like mountains, and the order flag is the military order. It affects the life and death of 70,000 people and must not be careless. If anyone makes a mistake, don't blame me for not caring about my feelings."
The five people from Song and Qing Dynasties held the flagpole of the order flag tightly and took a deep breath: "The general will get the order at the end."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the remaining twenty Jin people: "Everyone, you will explain the meaning of the formation flags to the soldiers of the five formation gates in a moment. Do you understand the meaning of the flag changes that I just explained?"
"Don't worry, Commander, we have memorized everything by heart, and we will never make the slightest mistake."
"So I feel relieved and ready to fill my stomach to face the enemy."
"I will finally retire."
Liu Mingzhi sat cross-legged on the high platform in the center of the formation, closing his eyes and meditating, calculating various offensive and defensive changes in his mind.
From time to time, I would bring scones to my mouth, thinking about it while eating.
When the 70,000-strong army knew that they were arrayed outside the city to deal with the 400,000-strong army, they actually wanted to act as resistance. Many objections were suppressed by Liu Mingzhi with iron blood.
Thirty heads were beheaded on the spot, and their heads are still hanging on the flagpole.
After all, he is not one of his own, and Liu Mingzhi has no mercy at all. He cannot tolerate the slightest mistake in the Longmen Formation. If he is not ruthless and ruthless to stabilize the morale of the army, it will be destroyed sooner or later.
The benefits of the supremacy of monarchy in feudal society were highlighted at this time.
As soon as the jade seal was passed down, all opposition was gone.
Even Liu Mingzhi had to admire the xinao ability of Confucian culture with that lofty idea that if a king wants his subjects to die, they must die.
The ancestors of the Jin Kingdom were nomadic people, and after being baptized by Confucian culture, they became almost the same as the people of Dalong, just like the pyramid schemes of later generations.
The 70,000-strong army was nervous, and Liu Mingzhi was even more nervous. No one was more exhausted than him.
It is definitely a rare thing in the world for a person who has never led an army to suddenly have to command an army of 70,000 people.
If the enemy can be successfully defeated in this battle, Liu Mingzhi's reputation will be resounding throughout Dalong, Turks and the Kingdom of Jin.
And can be ranked among famous generals.
Seventy thousand versus four hundred thousand, a force of one to six can still defeat the enemy. It is not an exaggeration to call him the reincarnation of the God of War.
Throughout history, there are countless battles in which a small number of people defeated a large number, but there are very few battles with such a huge gap.
The queen leaned forward and lay on the city wall, looking at Liu Mingzhi in the mirror: "He is really like a fox, unwilling to suffer any loss."
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Gate Formation looks so shocking. It seems to be a winding and circling dragon lying outside the city with its fangs and claws waving."
Huier's tone was full of shock.
The Queen put down the telescope in her hand: "There is nothing strange about the formation diagram at all. I just feel that the formation is precise and full of changes. But only when you see it with your own eyes can you understand how terrifying it is. Just the formation is enough."
That’s it, if the formation is changed, wouldn’t it be even more shocking, Grand Master, what do you think?”
"Your Majesty, I have arranged for fifty knowledgeable and memorized scholars to stop at the top of the city to watch. By then, every offensive and defensive change of the Dragon Gate Formation will be memorized by them."
"The one who knows me is the Grand Master."
"Your Majesty, it failed. Mr. Liu did not let the Jin people get close to the platform at the center of the formation. All the soldiers protecting the formation were Dalong's bodyguards."
Yeluhu walked up to the city wall dejectedly.
The Queen smiled calmly: "It was as expected. General Yelu does not need to blame himself. If the Dragon Gate Formation can really defeat 400,000 enemies with 70,000 people, even I will not easily let the formation diagram show others."
"Hui'er, has General Jin Kezheng replied to your letter?"
"Your Majesty, General Jin has replied to the letter and has led 10,000 cavalry to ambush in the dense forest southwest of the city. As soon as the signal is received, he will immediately raid the rebel rear army's equipment."
"Okay, everything is ready. All we need is the east wind. General Yelu, you go and command the 30,000 forbidden troops on the city wall, and form a horn with the Dragon Gate formation outside the city to reduce their pressure."
"I have an order."
The sun rose into the sky, and a continuous sound of horns began to sound from the south of the capital, piercing the sky.
After a while, smoke and dust billowed in the south of the city, and the sun disappeared.
An army of more than 300,000 people attacked the capital in a mighty manner.
Suddenly, everyone became tense, and there was a chilling atmosphere in the air.
Liu Mingzhi stood up and checked the armor on his body. There were no gaps and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Get into formation."
Dozens of messengers shouted together to pass down Liu Mingzhi's command. For those who are reading, you can search for "" to find this site as soon as possible.
