The door was closed, and inside the house, four old men were chatting -
"First Elder, that little beast Chen Shen hasn't returned home all night, and he doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" Seventh Elder Chen Haoquan looked suspicious.
"Yes! If he doesn't come back, who should we show the scene we decided to show?" Fifth Elder Chen Daoxin frowned.
Ninth Elder Chen Dongling was silent, and looking at his expression, there seemed to be a trace of unnoticeable frustration.
After a brief silence, the Great Elder Chen Jinyang tapped the table, squinted his eyes and said, "Don't be nervous. That little beast just recruited a large number of personal guards and spent over 100 million yuan on it. How could he ignore it?"
reason?"
"He will definitely return to the family, and it will be in these two days."
Speaking of this, Chen Jinyang's eyes moved to the left, and finally fixed on the face of Ninth Elder Chen Dongling, and said word by word: "Old Jiu, are you ready? Don't worry, after the matter is completed, I promise you the benefits.
, will definitely be honored!”
Chen Dongling took a deep breath, ambition and greed, and wiped away the trace of pain in his eyes: "I'm ready, let's get started!"
immediately--
"Bang bang bang bang!"
"Boom boom boom boom!"
For some unknown reason, Chen Jinyang suddenly started a fight with Chen Dongling. The fire-based mystical energy was raging wildly, breaking through walls and breaking tiles, alarming all the clan members...
"You, how dare you attack me secretly?"
This is the voice of the Great Elder Chen Jinyang.
Immediately afterwards, the ninth elder Chen Dongling roared: "Hmph! Chen Jinyang, you are a sanctimonious hypocrite, you used sinister means to kill my youngest son, I swear to kill you!"
"Chen Dongling, what are you doing? Stop it quickly!"
"Stop it!"
From the words of the fifth elder and the seventh elder, it seemed that they were trying to break up the fight.
This sudden turmoil was like a huge tsunami, sweeping across the entire General's Mansion in an instant...
At the same time, thirty miles south of the imperial capital, there was the camp of the Tiger Army.
Inside the handsome tent.
An old man with skin as bronze and a body as strong as an ox, with a gray-white beard and thorny hairs all over his face, sat in the upper position - this man was none other than General Weihu: Wang Xingba.
Under his seat, twelve generals and lieutenants were separated on the left and right, and they were all reporting something to him.
After hearing what everyone said, Wang Xingba's eyebrows, which were like two broad knives, suddenly twisted: "Is this the news you got from the Xiaoqi Camp?"
"They drew a disk on the ground? And marked twelve segments?"
"Chen Shen and officers above the rank of captain, each holding two flags, are dancing around?"
"And those brave cavalry soldiers, instead of practicing the art of rushing into formations and practicing archery, they ride and shoot around the haystacks? This, what is this?"
"Didn't you find something else useful?"
All the soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, and finally they all shook their heads.
One of them took a step forward, clasped his fists and said: "Commander, the Xiaoqi Army and our Tiger Army are perennial competitors. What the general can find out is only superficial. I really can't find out anything else!"
Another general also stood up, clasped his fists and replied: "Don't worry, Commander. Let's not mention the twelve disc segments for now. Just judging from the fact that the little boy Chen Shen is practicing riding and shooting, they will definitely lose!
"
The rest of the generals also expressed their opinions: "In a cavalry confrontation, both sides will arrive in the blink of an eye, and arrows can have a fart effect!"
"That little kid still lets people go around the haystacks and shoot arrows. It's ridiculous! There are only 20,000 people on both sides of us. How can he expect to use 20,000 people to surround all our troops and shoot them?"
"Yes! Arrows are a good idea for infantry, but cavalry... Haha, if he really wants to do that, he will lose the essence of cavalry, which is mobility. How can he be invincible?"
After a while, Wang Xingba finally relaxed his brows and said in his heart: "Well... everything the generals said is reasonable. After all, I was too suspicious and overestimated that young boy."
Immediately, the old man stood up suddenly and shouted: "The Xiaoqi Army is a good soldier, but if it is left to him, Commander Chen Shen, there will be nothing to worry about."
"My sons, at noon today, in front of His Majesty and all the civil and military officials, we will definitely show off the majesty of the Tiger Army!"
"yes!"
The generals are eager to try.
Obviously, in their eyes, the Qiaoqi Army under Chen Shen's rule has been reduced to a pack of wolves with toothless and clawed out teeth, no better than lambs waiting to be slaughtered...
Time passes minute by minute.
Two hours later, the sun rose from the eastern horizon into the sky, baking the earth, mountains and rivers with warmth.
Although the sun is nice, it cannot withstand the depth of autumn.
Tens of thousands of cavalry, together with hundreds of civil and military officials and the King of Great Xia, rushed all the way from the imperial capital to the royal hunting ground. They were used to seeing the falling leaves rustle along the way...
Noon, royal hunting ground.
The King of Great Xia and all the civil servants and generals sat high in the spectator seats, looking at the two troops in the field with great energy——
On the left is the 20,000-strong cavalry army led by Chen Shen. The young man is dressed in powerful clothing and rides an ordinary war horse, standing on a temporary commander's platform.
What he held in his hand was not a weapon, but two medium-sized flags, which looked a bit nondescript.
What is even more incomprehensible is that all the captains in the team are holding flags but no weapons, which is strange and strange.
Located on the right, facing the Xiaoqi Army a mile away, is the 20,000 Tiger Army commanded by Wang Xingba.
As the commander-in-chief of the army, Wang Xingba was not above the commander-in-chief, but was slightly frowned upon by the sergeants. He held the unopened long-handled sword made of blue steel in his hand tightly. It seemed that he planned to personally
Joined the war.
After looking at the commander's position, let's look at the military formation.
The Knight Cavalry did not seem to have set up any special battle formation. All 20,000 people were gathered together. Apart from each other's slightly relaxed positions, there was no other characteristic.
On the other hand, the 20,000-strong Tiger Army was organized by Wang Xingba into the front army, the middle army, the rear army, and two flanking armies.
The front army is in the shape of a wedge, with 8,000 people; the middle army is with 5,000 people; the rear army is in a flat shape, with 2,000 people.
There are also 2,500 people on the left and right wings. They can be used for surprise attacks or as cover during the war, so that they can advance and retreat in a coordinated manner.
After comparing the battle formations of the two sides, everyone in the audience sighed to themselves——
"I thought it was strange that the boy had to set up a temporary commander's stand before. But he was holding a banknote in his hand, and all the captains were holding a banknote and no weapons. This... is simply weird!"
"Let's not mention the commander position for now. Just look at the military formation and you will know that Chen Shen is an absolute rookie in commanding the army. He actually gathered 20,000 people into a large square formation? Tsk tsk, once the war starts, he will make it clear that he will be able to control all sides.
Under attack!"
"Alas! I didn't expect him to win at first. I just wanted to see if he could lose easily. After all, he is the only grandson of General Chen."
"Who would have thought that as a general, he would not even know the slightest bit of military theory? The so-called tiger father and dog son are nothing more than that."
The battle has not even begun yet, but the opinions of the spectators are already one-sided...
