Chapter 43: Formation Duel (Part II)
Chapter 43: Formation Duel (Part II)
With Zong Zheng's roar.
The soldiers beat the drums of retreat, and they retreated after a thunderbolt.
"Your Majesty is resourceful, and the Shu army formation is nothing more than that. Lian Po also praised Zongzheng on the side.
"There are very few formations alone, and they all change one after another.
This is the enemy's division testing my strength,
Only then can the battle be broken when you see it!" Zong Zheng had read his grandmother's art of war and knew what was going on.
Zhou Yu waved his hand,
There have been new changes in the formation, and the number of soldiers of the Shu army has increased a lot.
"Your Majesty, it's time for me to appear, right?" Yan Ruyu asked Zong Zheng behind him.
"After a while, there will be a chance!" Zong Zheng looked at the formation in front of him, both familiar and unfamiliar.
"Three rows of people, it should be the three talents of heaven and earth, and this grandmother has no art of war?
What can I do about this? If Wu Yong and Xu Mao are together, they can discuss it with me. Zong Zheng was a little anxious.
"Your Majesty, what should we do?" asked Lian Po Zongzheng.
"Zhuge Wollong, they are really coming, and they will definitely not leave us a chance to break the formation and discuss.
Then I'll break the jar and break it!" Zong Zheng really couldn't think of a way to break the formation.
"'Then I'll have an ambush formation on all sides!'
Surely you haven't seen it anyway!" said Zong Zheng to himself.
"Yan Ruyu, come here!" After Zong Zheng finished speaking, Yan Ruyu walked over, and Zong Zheng said a few words in her ear.
Yan Ruyu left with the troops and walked back to the barracks.
"Brother Huang, why did she go?" Lu Hua asked Zongzheng.
"In this formation duel, it is estimated that we have lost! We have only broken two formations, and I can't break the third formation.
Wanyan thunderbolt, Wanyan Zonghao, you two come here!" Zong Zheng said to Wanyan and his son,
Wanyan father and son went back to the barracks to lead the troops.
"I don't know if Brother Zongzheng, can you break this Heaven and Earth Sancai Taiyi Formation?" Lu Fengxian took Huang Zhong and Wei Yan out of the formation,
Shouting at Zongzheng.
"Can't be broken!" let me think about it!" Somasa also shouted.
"Zong Zheng can't help but praise it, he was stumped after only breaking two formations?" Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Wollong with a puzzled face.
"I don't know! My Eight Gates Golden Lock Array is useless! Why can't it?
The two of us also plan to directly let them enter the formation, from the Heaven and Earth Sancai Taiyi Formation to the Seven Star Beidou Array,
Let's see how Zong Zheng allows soldiers who have not practiced the formation to break the formation in the formation!" Zhuge Wollong was also puzzled.
"Ding**, Wang Junke, Luo Song, the three of you each led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and attacked the three formations of heaven, earth and people respectively.
The bow is cut from afar, the bow and arrow are the mainstay, and after a while they break the battle,
There will be other formations, and you will surround the inside,
At that time, I will come up with a way to break the formation, and I will let people in and tell you how to do it!" Zong Zheng finished speaking, and the three of them led the troops into the formation.
"Yes!
These 30,000 horses will all die in battle!
How did they come up with the idea of breaking the formation with bows and arrows?
Quickly change the four-door formation!"
As soon as Zhou Yu was happy, he was frightened by the scene of breaking the formation.
Hurriedly waved his hand and transformed into a four-door bottom array.
The transformed formation is like a quadripartite type, trapping Ding ** and them in the formation,
In the center of the array is a square composed of four long snake formations, which will drop them inside.
Outside the four long snake arrays are four large heaven and earth three cai taiyi arrays composed of a square,
Trap the four long snakes in the center of the array.
"I don't know if Your Majesty has come up with a good plan!" Ding ** slashed and killed the soldiers.
"It's difficult to break through, four long snake formations, and there are four big heaven and earth three cai Taiyi formations outside. "Wang Junke slashed and killed the soldiers on the left and right.
"Jia Yanpu, Shubao, Tong Guan, Yelu Guojing, the four of you each lead 20,000 horses, enter from the four corners of the Four Gate Bottom Array, and after attacking, first solve a long snake formation inside,
Waiting for General Ding ** to come out,
Then choose a heaven and earth three talents Taiyi formation, break out of the formation, you must be fast!
Otherwise, if you break a long snake formation, the Shu army will use the remaining three long snake formations to form the Heaven and Earth Sancai Taiyi Formation, and then you will be attacked by the enemy on your back, and it will be even more difficult to break through!
Zhuge Wolong saw Tong Guan and them enter the four-gate bottom formation, and broke a long snake formation in the center of the formation, and hurriedly waved his hand, so that the remaining three long snake formations converged into a three-dragon water array, attacking Tong Guan and their seven people.
Tong Guan, with seven soldiers and one place, is about to break through the outermost layer of heaven and earth Sancai Taiyi Formation.
"It turns out that the three long snake formations can still form the three dragons out of the water array? It is worthy of Zhuge Wollong!" Zong Zheng looked at the formation in front of him and marveled.
"Hurry up and change the formation! Otherwise, they will break through the formation!" Zhou Yu said to Zhuge Wollong on the side.
Zhuge Wolong and Zhou Yu waved their hands together against Lu Fengxian, who was the former commander.
The formation began to change again.
"It turns out that this is the Five Tigers and Sheep Formation!" Zong Zheng looked at the changed formation and reasoned.
"Your Majesty, I'm still going to break the formation, right?" Lian Po clenched his hands into fists.
"The army has traveled a long way and broken this formation, let's go back and rest. Zong Zheng smiled and looked at Lian Po.
"Then how will you attack?" Lian Po looked at Zongzheng, who didn't say anything.
"It's over! This formation knows that it can't be broken at a glance!"
After slashing and killing a soldier of the Shu army, Shu Bao looked at the formation.
"Now more than 100,000 soldiers of Zongzheng are trapped in the Five Tigers and Sheep Formation, and they are completely finished!" Zhou Yu began to be complacent.
Zhuge Wolong fanned the peacock on his chest, extremely calm, and looked at Zongzheng in the distance with an expressionless face.
"The time has come!" Zong Zheng watched as tens of thousands of kites flew out behind him.
"Brother Lu Hua, you led an army of 50,000 and began to attack, and when you reached a place with seven generals and soldiers,
Form a square, all squatt, and the soldiers around them use shields to block themselves! Go!" After Zong Zheng finished speaking, Lu Hua led the troops to rush in the direction of Tong Guan and them.
"Zongzheng is nothing more than that! It's starting to attack! These 50,000 people enter the formation, and they will definitely die!" Zhou Yu watched Lu Hua rush into the formation with 50,000 troops.
"I heard that there are a lot of crooked ways of Zongzheng, which once made the soldiers of the millions of soldiers of the Jin Kingdom extremely itchy, it turned out that he used kites to sprinkle itching body powder on the army! I can't tell you that this is the kites he used to use before! Then the formation took the opportunity to choose a direction to break through! Awesome! Awesome!" Zhuge Wollong muttered to himself.
"Then don't you withdraw the army?" Zhou Yu saw that Lu Hua had already entered the formation, and he was trapped in the formation with Tong Guan's seven soldiers.
"It's too late!" Zhuge Wollong pointed with a fan around the Five Tigers and Sheep Formation.
I saw Wanyan Thunderbolt, Wanyan Zonghao, Yelu Zhongyi, and Yelu Guojing each led 100,000 to kill from four years,
The five tigers surrounded the flock, but did not attack.
"No attack, what's the situation?" Zhou Yue felt strange.
"We are comparing formations, and the meaning of formations is to use the least casualties to make the enemy suffer more casualties.
If he attacks, he loses the meaning of the formation.
I don't think he's going to be that simple!" Zhuge Wollong looked at the kite in the sky.
"Scatter it!" The kite in the air turned out to be the soldiers holding oil.
All the soldiers opened the bags and spilled the oil.
"Shoot arrows!" said Huang Zhong, who was in the formation of five tigers and sheep, shooting off a soldier on a kite.
"Surrounded on all sides by Yelu father and son and Wanyan father and son, there are Lu Hua and their nearly 100,000 soldiers in the array, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers in the sky.
At this time, Lu Hua and the others have already squatted down!" Zhuge Wolong sighed.
"The lime is finished!Most of them were blinded and took the opportunity to kill them!" Tong Guan stood up first,
With the soldiers, slash and kill in the direction of Zongzheng.
"The formation is out of order!" Zhou Yue angrily smashed his fist on the stone in front of him.
"The 200,000 army was trapped by Yelu and Wanyan's father and son, and asked General Lu Fengxian to lead an army of 300,000, first send 50,000 archers to shoot the enemy, and then kill a hole to rescue our soldiers!" Zhou Yue shouted.
When Tong Guan and them are out of the formation, Yelu Guojing is really in charge of this position, giving Tong Guan and them to give way to the exit, and letting Tong Guan and them go out.
It was Yan Ruyu who led the team with tens of thousands of kites, and Yan Ruyu drove the kite and fell to the ground with tens of thousands of soldiers.
Slash and slash with the Shu army.
Huang Zhong shot an arrow at Yan Ruyu, and was hit by Yan Ruyu's big knife and flew a sharp arrow.
Fight with Huang Zhong.
"General Zong Hao! Enemy General Lu Feng is about to send a bow and arrow!" a soldier said to Wanyan Zonghao.
"In accordance with Your Majesty's will, we will withdraw to the right, reduce casualties, and make peace with my father, Marshal Wanyan. Wanyan Zonghao ran towards Wanyan Thunderbolt with an army of 100,000.
"Ignition!" Yan Ruyu shouted as she blocked Huang Zhong's broadsword.
The soldiers who fell from the kite to the ground stopped fighting, ignited the oil on the ground, and in an instant, the nearly 200,000 troops of the Shu army and Yan Ruyu were trapped in the sea of fire.
"Your Majesty, when will this kite be able to carry people and be able to fly it?" Lim Po looked at the sea of fire ahead.
"Withdraw!"
Yan Ruyu gave an order!
Tens of thousands of soldiers ran in the direction of Zongzheng,
At this time, Huang Zhong was still fighting with Yan Ruyu.
"Father, Lu Fengxian fired ten thousand arrows and killed more than 10,000 of us!" Wanyan Zonghao said to Wanyan Thunderbolt.
"If you don't surround these 200,000 Shu troops like this, how can Lu Fengxian and them cause panic and break into the sea of fire?"
"Isn't this nonsense? This prayer mountain is not only grass but trees, and they will have to change camps if they and we all have to change camps!" Zhou Yu looked at the sea of fire and looked at Zhuge Wolong with a sad face.
"He's really playing big! When Lu Hua and the others withdraw, they will be shot directly with bows and arrows from all sides, and our 200,000 sons and daughters will not be able to save their lives!" Zhuge Wolong was a little anxious.
Yan Ruyu was entangled by Huang Zhong and couldn't get out,
Because the Zongzheng has an order, he must not kill the Tianshuai of the Shu Kingdom,
Yan Ruyu was afraid of delaying the fighter, so she couldn't care about it so much, so she shook her head.
Huang Zhong dodged, Yan Ruyu raised his knife to slash at Huang Zhong, and Huang Zhong was about to use the knife to block.
Finding that Yan Ruyu's left hand saber pierced through his armor, Yan Ruyu's left hand used force again, piercing the saber through Huang Zhong's body and coming out of his back.
Raised his right foot, kicked Huang Zhong in the abdomen hard, pulled out the sword, picked up the big knife in his right hand, and cut off Huang Zhong's head.
Take the opportunity to slash and kill a cavalryman, grab the horse and run in the direction of Zongzheng, while slashing and killing the soldiers on the left and right.
"Since the road back to the camp has been cleared by Marshal Lu Fengxian, Mingjin will withdraw his troops!" Zhuge Wolon shouted.
Lu Feng first led his troops to turn around and prepare to return to the camp.
Wanyan Thunderbolt, Wanyan Zonghao, Yelu Zhongyi, and Yelu Guojing ordered to shoot the Shu army.
The sky is like a sesame seed, densely shooting towards the Shu army,
The Shu army, desperate, ran out of the sea of fire and returned to the camp.
Zongzheng's army did not attack the Shu army camp, but returned to his own camp one after another.
"Your Majesty, our army suffered more than 50,000 casualties in this battle, and the Shu army is no less than 150,000!
After Yan Thunderbolt finished speaking to Zongzheng, everyone laughed.
"General Yan Ruyu, the women don't let the eyebrows, take 10,000 soldiers to fly kites in the air, and burn the Shu army, why are you not happy?" Lian Po saw that everyone was very happy, but Yan Ruyu was silent and lowered his head.
"Your Majesty! The last general is really helpless, afraid of delaying the warplane! I have no choice but to kill Huang Zhong, the Tianshuai of Shu Kingdom! Please Your Majesty!" Yan Ruyu walked in front of Zong Zheng, lowered his head, and bowed.
"What? The general killed Huang Zhong? I fought with him in Wanyan Thunderbolt! I am not sure to kill him!" Wanyan Thunderbolt felt unbelievable when he heard that Yan Ruyu had killed Huang Zhong.
"It's okay! The marshal of the enemy will be rewarded for his merit! This thing depends on the situation, and it can't be old-fashioned!
I have made you a marshal!"
Zong Zheng knew that killing the Tianshuai of Shu was to move the strength of the Shu army, which he didn't want to see, but the two armies fought and killed the enemy marshal, and if they were not rewarded or punished, they would lose their military morale.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Ruyu raised her head happily.
"Your Majesty! Disobey the holy order, General Yan Ruyu is a woman again, and she is named a marshal......" Yan thunderbolted, and he stopped talking.
"What do you mean?" Zong Zheng glanced at Wan Yan with a thunderbolt.
"I'm afraid of Zhao Congjun...... There are also civil and military officials who will talk a lot...... "Wanyan Thunderbolt knew that when Lu Yue was an official when the founding of the country, he was opposed,
Zhao Congjun is iron-faced and selfless, and he will also disobey the holy order for Yan Ruyu and continue to speak.
"Wanyan Zonghao, Yelu Guojing, can you two be sure that one person will kill Huang Zhong without any damage?"
"Can't be killed!"
The two replied in unison.
"Marshal Yan Ruyu has made great contributions to this battle! Killing Tianshuai Huang Zhong should be crowned marshal, if there is something wrong, how can we comfort the army's heart? This matter is settled, there is no need to say more!" Zong Zheng took a sip of wine.
"Your Majesty! The Shu army has withdrawn from Qishan!" Tong Guan walked into the camp.
"What's the situation?" asked Tong Guan.
"The fire just now is getting stronger and stronger, and it has burned to the camp of the Shu army! Fortunately, the wind is blowing in the direction of the Shu army. Tong Guan continued.
"I watched the wind blow towards the Shu army camp, and then set the fire and let Marshal Yan Ruyu drive the kite. Zong Zheng replied with a smile.
"It's enjoyable! Kill 150,000 Shu troops! That's the strength of several princes of Qin!" Wang Junke was very happy.
"How many men and horses has General Wang brought before?" Wan Yan Thunderbolt raised his glass and gestured to Wang Junke.
"More than eight thousand!" Wang Junke drank a glass of wine.
"150,000 is indeed a lot! I think that when I first established the empire with Your Majesty, it was a 200,000 or 300,000 enemy killing army, and in the battle with Qin Chang'an, we killed the Qin State's army of one million!"
"Hundreds of thousands, millions, oh my God!" Wang Junke's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this.
"I think we are fighting everywhere, working the people and losing money, and the treasury is easy to be empty, I'm afraid that we will revolt everywhere like the Qin State!" Jia Yanpu took over the conversation.
"I'm afraid I don't know if General Jia just came? The civil and military officials are all Zhao, Han, Jin, Tang, Song, Han, Chu and other ministers who have fallen into the country, where did the uprising come from?
The people of our country live and work in peace and contentment, and His Majesty once decreed that the people do not have to pay any taxes for a few years, and sometimes they also give poverty money to the poor people, why do the people revolt?" Wanyan said to Jia Yanpu.
"Don't want the people's money? Where does the civil and military officials come from? Where does the military expenses for the conquest of the Quartet come from?" Jia Yanpu looked at Zong Zheng.
Zong Zheng smiled and looked at Yan Thunderbolt again.
She is the only apprentice of the god of commerce, in charge of domestic and foreign trade, and a series of national expenses such as civil and military officials are earned by the imperial sister.
In the past, we conquered cities and countries, and used the money from the cities and treasury for various expenses.
We have conquered nearly ten countries, so the treasury of so many countries must be enough!
The items encountered by the army were all bought by His Majesty's imperial sister and made by herself.
Most of the materials are owned by themselves,
We are now strong and strong, and we have no worries about food and clothing!" Wan Yan Thunderbolt became more and more excited.
"No wonder Your Majesty is not confined to the ordinary, appointing Marshal Yan Ruyu, not afraid of criticism from others. Wang Junke lowered his head and looked at the wine glass.
"At the beginning, His Majesty's imperial sister established the Ministry of Commerce, which was opposed by almost everyone, but although they are women, they now support the whole country.
The soldiers are treated well, there is no need to rebel, and Zhao Congjun punishes corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he also has some income when he fills the treasury.
Sometimes General Wang Zixi's bandits around the world will also offer some money.
Our country lacks generals and soldiers, so those who join the army come to the position of generals and fight bloodily, so this is what His Majesty should be.
Your Majesty has traveled all over the world, and the country is controlled by the Empress of the Jin Kingdom and the Prime Minister Han Sai, so what else is there to fear?"
"It is a blessing for all eternity that we have taken refuge in Your Majesty. Wang Junke raised his glass to Zong Zheng and drank it all.
"After eating and drinking, General Yelu Zhongyi led Yelu Guojing, Ding **, Jia Yanpu, and General Shubao, led an army of 450,000 troops, outside the ambush barracks, each soldier, take turns to rest for an hour, if the Shu army attacks at night, wake up the sleeping soldiers, you and I should be together, and the Shu army will not return. Zong Zheng drank wine.
"So what's going to happen? I'm full! I don't drink. Yan Ruyu stood up.
"Marshal Yan Ruyu went back to his camp to rest, and I will go back to you later!" After Zong Zheng finished speaking, Yan Ruyu left the camp of Shuai.
"Your Majesty, the fire in Qishan is getting more and more serious, there are many mountains in Shu, Tang Shu was originally bounded by Qishan, the fire has been burning, and sooner or later it will burn to us. Luo Song said to Zong Zheng with both hands in fists.
"I will go with Marshal Yan Ruyu to put out the fire in a while, and you are in the barracks and take turns to rest for an hour, after all, we have traveled a long way, and the soldiers are sleepy and tired, although Zhuge Wolong and they will not attack at night, but it is good to prevent trouble before it happens." After Zong Zheng finished speaking, he toasted everyone, and after drinking, he went to find Yan Ruyu.
"Your Majesty's Wen Tao Wuluo, no one can match, this is the reason why we are loyal to him!" Yelu Zhongyi said to Tong Guan beside him.
"What are you going to do!" Yan Ruyu had just taken off her armor and walked over to her with squinting eyes and smiling when she saw Zong Zheng staggering.
