Chapter 219 Feiguang writes about the sky with a pen
The so-called "Fei Guang holds a pen to write about the heavenly questions, splendidly embroidering the thirteen peaks of Washington."
This poem written by Yu Liyang, King of Min, who traveled around the world when he was young, pushed the thirteen famous mountains in the Xia Kingdom to the point of being "not as good as other mountains".
There is Mingkonghan Mountain in Jin'an Prefecture, which is also very high, strange and dangerous, but it was not listed among the Thirteen Peaks.
Liu Xiyi, who was born in Jin'an Mansion, once told someone that
"I hate that this peak is not high. I hate that I can't see Yu Liyang on this peak."
Yu Liyang responded during a banquet, saying, "Mr. Liu hopes that Yi is here, how dare he talk about Ming Kong."
People ask why they dare not.
Yu Liyang replied: "I'm afraid if I make a mistake in one word, I will be beaten by Mr. Liu!"
It became a good story for a while.
Of course, later on, when Yu Liyang became the true king, even Liu Xiyi could no longer call him by his first name in public.
As a strange mountain among the Thirteen Peaks, it has always been talked about because of its dangerous and majestic terrain.
Those who dabble are walking in the water.
It is said that the mountain was once in the water. Only when the water was poor could one know the danger. When the tide receded, one could see the peak.
Of course, the first time the name Sheshan appeared in history books, it was already a high mountain. According to the records of Qing Dynasty, there was no such big river in the southern region that could swallow up Sheshan.
So legends are just legends.
Taiyin led his troops to rush here, erased all traces, and lurked early.
Three thousand people shot the moon disk with their palms and hid it in the north of the mountain.
This formation plate has the same name as the Qi Army's Moon-shooting Crossbow, but it is completely unrelated. The so-called Moon-shooting Crossbow means that there is no light when the moon is lost in a long night. It was the formation plate that played an important role in the Battle of Wuyang City. Taiyin only had
The last two were taken with the army.
Three thousand people palmed the marsh plate and hid it in the south of the mountain.
This array disk is a replica of the Five Mysterious Evil Swamp Formation. Once activated, the mud will turn into a swamp, and the evil gas will surge up, invading the flesh and blood body, and confusing the sense organs.
There were also three thousand people holding fire disks on the ground, which were hidden in the valleys of the mountains.
This array is a replica of the Earth Fire Burning Furnace Formation. When activated, it can trigger earth fire, divide the ground into a furnace, and burn the enemies in the array.
The advantage of a formation lies in its convenience. When it comes to power, it certainly cannot be compared with a complete formation deployed according to local conditions.
The more powerful the formation is, the more difficult it is to replicate it into a formation plate.
Spending more resources can often only bring out eleventh of the power of the original array.
But it is the word "convenient" that makes it shine brightly in the post-formation era and continues the vitality of the formation.
As a family of formations, Taishi has accumulated thousands of years of accumulation, and it can be said that most of it is stored in various formation disks. But in this Qi-Xia war, the treasury has been exhausted, and everything at the bottom of the box has been taken out.
Even if the Qi army is finally defeated, it will not be possible to restore the old outlook in just a few decades.
The formation disks chosen by Taiyin are all replicas of formations that are not very delicate, but are very tough and cannot be easily broken up by soldiers.
In order to delay more time in the battle.
Because of the lack of time and for the sake of concealment, we were not able to set up formations more leisurely, but instead used formation disks. Such power is definitely not as powerful as setting up formations based on the location.
Therefore, the main force in this battle is still the military formation formed by the army.
The last thousand of the 10,000-strong army were Tai's family soldiers. The head of the family, Tai Xu, specially sent them out to assist him, and hid in Sheshan Mountain with Tai Yin.
Although the strategic goal of this trip had already been set, it was just to delay Xie Baoshu's troops.
But in Taiyin's mind, of course, he also expected to defeat the Qi army - if Xie Baoshu was willing to give him a chance.
His various arrangements have also utilized the power at hand to the limit.
Man proposes, God disposes!
Xie Baoshu is quite famous in Linzi. He is an aristocratic son who is very talented in spiritual practice, is used to dancing in the wind and moonlight, and has some literary talents. In terms of military strategy, he can only be said to be mediocre. Don't say that he is Xie Huai'an's nephew.
, Xie Huai'an's own military strategy was quite average after receiving the best education!
Silently sketching the relevant information about Xie Baoshu in his heart, Taiyin's breathing gradually became calmer, gradually became erratic, and finally disappeared. He felt the traces of this world in more and more detail, and gradually integrated them one by one, including him.
The aura of these more than a thousand Tai clan soldiers became less and less noticeable.
wait.
Many times in life, even if you have given everything you can, you can only wait for the unpredictable future!
The time is five hours and a quarter later.
It's very late at night.
The distant trembling sound coming from the earth was quietly collected by the formation during the process of dispersion... and was sensed by Taiyin.
The number of people is between 30,000 and 40,000, which is consistent with the information obtained by Chu Ming.
Taiyin's body slowly woke up and his blood began to flow again.
Although he said in front of Zhu Ming and others that Xie Baoshu was nothing to worry about. However, this person was also a famous genius in Qi State. He would not underestimate him, otherwise he would not have set the first goal of the war as delay.
Xie Baoshu's magical power of mirror can rebound the influence exerted on his body, which just restrains his magical power of negative embarrassment.
Xie Baoshu's magical power of Kuangsong allows him to release powerful range-of-range magic at the speed of a violent storm, which is very suitable for battlefield environments.
There is also an uncle who was a real person in the world. It is unknown what means of survival he left for him.
Such a person is not so easy to deal with.
Be cautious and try your best.
The formation that collected the sound had stopped and disappeared. This was to avoid being noticed by Xie Baoshu. The terrain near the mountain was so clear in Taiyin's mind that he could even outline the movement of Xie Baoshu's men.
process.
Counting the time silently in my mind.
Close, close...
The thoughts in my mind trickle down.
He crushed the token in his hand and sent a message to all the ministries.
At the same time, he stimulated his own blood energy and mixed it into the military formation. More than a thousand Taishi family soldiers mobilized together, and the soldiers rose into the sky. This lone brigade of Great Xia unfurled its flag on the top of Sheshan Mountain!
The banner of mountains and rivers representing the Great Xia Empire stands tall on the famous mountain of Great Xia!
In front of the fluttering national flag, Taiyin saw the army winding at the foot of the mountain. A bright lantern hung with the army, illuminating the road ahead, and the team dragged into a long queue.
When he showed his traces, the battle flags of the entire army were waving rapidly. Under the command of the general, they were very quickly changing from a marching formation to a combat formation.
"Qi thief thanks Baoshu!" Taiyin flew up and roared with anger: "You haven't been punished yet!"
Thousands of Taishi's soldiers formed a formation behind them and shouted in unison: "Be punished!"
This sound echoed throughout the heaven and earth, shaking all directions, sounding the clarion call for battle.
In the north of Sheshan Mountain, the officers and soldiers of the Xia Army of the Three Qian Dynasties shouted: "I will be punished!"
Then at the next moment, the night opened up like the wings of the sky. The light created by the hanging lamps had been completely eroded. The bright moon on the other side disappeared into the clouds and eventually lost its brilliance.
The Moon Shooting Formation has been activated!
Xie Baoshu showed great ability in commanding troops. When he was suddenly attacked, he did not disrupt the formation of his troops. Instead, he quickly adjusted the formation and gathered the soldiers. As the blood energy surged, the soldiers were so angry that they soared into the sky and were breaking through to shoot the moon.
The influence of array.
At the same time, in the south of Sheshan Mountain, the soldiers of Xia Army also shouted: "Be punished!"
At the foot of Sheshan Mountain, for nearly ten miles, the hard soil turned into mud, causing Qi soldiers to stagger around and their formations tended to be scattered! There was even more foul air coming out from the ground, emitting a vomiting stench that filled the air.
In the dark night where you can't even see your fingers!
Immediately after that, in the mountains, the angry voices of the Xia army soldiers also sounded: "Be punished!"
Then, from the ground where the foul air came out, smoke quickly emerged, followed by scorching gas, and the heaven and earth suddenly heated up! Earthly fire squeezed out of the mire.
The heaven and earth in this area were like a cauldron or a furnace in an instant, and the Qi army was boiling in the cauldron!
The fire poison breaks out and the fire spreads!
The earth fire furnace rises!
Taiyin almost cried out in admiration.
Under the strong pressure of the Qi army, the performance of these brothers under my command was perfect!
This time, the application of the formation disk is not simply to let the leading general infuse Dao Yuan and activate the formation disk, but under his redesign, each Xia army uses the power of the formation to activate the formation disk, and uses the formation to legalize the formation.
, thereby restoring the power of the formation itself to the greatest extent!
This is not something that can be done easily, and modifying the match board is already very difficult, but he has completed it.
However, using the power of the military formation to activate the formation disk and make the military formations and magic formations match each other requires fine control and cooperation.
He didn't have that many outstanding generals under his command, and frankly speaking, his soldiers were not elite enough - so he had already given instructions in advance that if he couldn't do it, he could give up the combination of military formations and directly activate the formation disk.
But the Xia Army soldiers who were ambushing in three positions all did it!
How could this upset him?
The Moon Shooting Formation, the Five Misty Evil Swamp Formation, and the Earth Fire Burning Furnace Formation, the three major formations erupted at the same time. Under Taiyin's control,
They never interfered, but instead overlapped with each other, swallowing up the sky and the earth, covering Xie Baoshu's army of more than 30,000 in an instant. This was definitely a perfect ambush!
Then he saw the troops at the foot of the mountain were like dragons. Although the 30,000 Qi troops were frightened, they actually stabilized their array, formed smaller formations to defend themselves, and launched a counterattack!
Those military formations rise and fall one after another, responding to the power of the magic formation in an orderly and efficient manner.
The muddy swamp was leveled by the hard earth. The raging earth fire was crushed by the soldiers. The permeating fire poison and turbid air were pushed away by the majestic sea of soldiers! The darkness was all wiped out.
The hole was pierced, and the bright moon reappeared in the world!
This kind of use of troops actually feels like flowing clouds and flowing water...
This is definitely not how Xie Baoshu should behave!
Either, Xie Baoshu is actually a master of military skills, but he has always been hiding his talents, so he can calmly deal with an ambush of this level. Or, he has been prepared for this ambush!
No matter which possibility it was, Taiyin felt uneasy.
He would rather believe it was the former, because if it was the latter, how could the other party's preparations stop there?
There seems to be such a voice in my heart - Calm down! Calm down!
Taiyin, you now control the life and death of ten thousand people, and you control the situation of the entire Huiluo Mansion!
Don't be angry, don't be resentful, erase the fear you shouldn't have, show up as a strong person and face it!
The person I have respected the most since childhood, my uncle’s voice...
"The Shannan Song Dynasty Military Department formed a sword formation and quickly cut through the enemy's front troops!"
On the one hand, Taiyin tried to control the collapsed magic circle so that it could still play some role before it completely collapsed.
While calmly commanding: "Liu Yu'en's troops in the north of the mountain, form a steel formation, I want you to fill up the mountain road!"
"Shanjun Wu Yuming, I order you to bombard the main mountain and quickly cause a landslide!"
At the top of Sheshan Mountain, the national flag of Daxia was waving rapidly, conveying Taiyin's order.
Although this Xia army only numbered 10,000 people, and although it was only a government soldier, and its conditions were not as strong as those of Shenwu and Zhenguo in all aspects, it faithfully carried out Taiyin's orders and quickly completed the change of formation.
They did the best they could!
But at the next moment, the Qi army at the foot of the mountain actually gathered together. The various units were connected in formation, mixed with all the soldiers, and jumped up in an instant, like a dragon flying up the mountain!
Does Xie Baoshu have the ability to control a 30,000-level military formation and perfectly utilize the full power of the army?
The answer is obviously no!
If he really had such military ability, he would not have been defeated by Chong Xuan on the Eastern Front battlefield. It would have been impossible for Bao Bozhao to overwhelm him and end the matter!
Taiyin urgently issued another order: "Song Xuewu and Hao Yuming's troops retreat immediately! Withdraw troops toward Wuyang City!"
He has decided to switch to the second option, which is to retreat to Wuyang City first, and then abandon Wuyang City, using this process to achieve the purpose of delaying the opponent's advance.
As for Liu Yuen's department, which he did not give orders to...
They could only stay to block the Qi army and cut off the retreating Xia army.
This is done to survive by docking the tail.
He also turned around and pulled out the flag, and with the thousands of Taishi's soldiers, they gathered the soldiers and flew into the air, pretending to attack at the foot of the mountain. In fact, they secretly used the power of the soldiers to quickly outline a simple formation to block it.
enemy preparation,
Buy more time for the troops to withdraw from Sheshan.
The national flag of Xia was flying, these thousand people were extremely brave, following Taiyin's attack, it was like the arrow had left the string.
But the worst thing still happened!
At the foot of the mountain, a figure with awe-inspiring aura suddenly jumped out of the cloud of evil spirits transformed by the Qi army.
He is about forty years old and is dressed in scholar's uniform. His appearance and appearance suggest that he is a scholar, but he leaps out of the army and proudly reaches high into the sky. His momentum is as powerful as the mountains and seas.
This is a divine and enlightened existence.
A strong man who has overcome the gap between heaven and man.
Looking directly at the top of the mountain, the eyes were clearly gentle, but they seemed to have penetrated Taiyin, making his soul shaken!
It’s Ouyang Yong!
Ouyang Yong, Prime Minister of Rong State!
He actually hid in Xie Baoshu’s military formation!
No wonder this Qi army can remain calm when it should be in chaos. No wonder this army of more than 30,000 people can mobilize freely!
Ouyang Yong is the Jade Pillar of the Rong Kingdom, a being with both civil and military abilities. He is able to control a military formation of 30,000 troops, which is no problem at all.
Taiyin understood everything in an instant.
For example, he mobilized all the forces he could mobilize in Huiluo Mansion just to ensure that he could kill Zhongxuan Sheng and Jiang Wang.
After Bao Bozhao's defeat, the two Qi armies that quickly came to attack Wuyang City... also mobilized all the forces that the other side could use in Huiluo Mansion in the shortest possible time!
Marquis Xuanping's endless battle at Tianfeng Ranch was of course his deception of the Qi army, but why wasn't it also Qi's deception of them?
After the news of the Battle of Wuyang spread, the Chongxuan Sheng tribe and Xie Baoshu tribe immediately sent their troops to come.
The other party realized the importance of Wuyang City, and at the same time realized that Xia Jun's strength might be far superior to the intelligence, and realized that Xia Jun would definitely have follow-up actions!
Under such circumstances, it was obviously too late for w. to mobilize troops, and it was impossible to hide the intelligence from Xia Jun, so they chose to mobilize the strong ones!
Taking the risk of repeated attacks on the cities in the northern part of Huiluo Prefecture, the strong men of Tiaoshenlin went south. He secretly sent Ouyang Yong to hide in the military formation, so that the Xia army that had set up an ambush was ambushed, and Taiyin was instantly trapped! What a move to smooth things over!
A name appeared in Taiyin's mind, Yi Zhongxuan Sheng.
If he guessed correctly, another powerful Qi army leader who was in Huiluo Mansion at this time, Yan Po, the famous general of Yi State, should be in Chongxuan Sheng's army.
So is the situation unsolvable? When the ambush has been seen through, and the opponent has even taken advantage of it?
No!
still have a chance!
Taiyin's thoughts changed rapidly.
Chongxuan Sheng couldn't be right about everything. He calculated that Xia Jun would set up an ambush, but it was impossible to know what kind of strength Xia Jun would use to set up an ambush!
On the mountain-mountain battlefield, our side is already at an absolute disadvantage.
But in the Minxi Corridor, because of our own caution, with the presence of the powerful Zhou Xiong, Yi Shengfeng, and Chu Ming, with 50,000 Xia troops against 30,000 Qi troops, the Xia army still had the upper hand!
In other words, even if the worst situation happens, Yan Po is indeed hiding in Chongxuan Sheng's army, and the battle of the Minxi Corridor still has a high chance of winning.
If the other side can succeed, this ambush will not be considered a failure!
The premise is that the army in front of you cannot go to the Minxi Corridor to support!**
