Chapter 340: The Dead
Chapter 340
Although the circle array advanced and retreated freely, but the malleability was not very good, I asked Shangguan Lingling strangely, "Shangguan Dadu, the troops in this formation are so single, and they completely abandon defensive and long-range strikes, I don't know why?"
Shangguan Lingling was not surprised by my question," The Taoist chief's vision is really sharp, and he broke the secret of this formation in one sentence, yes, the circle array gave up defensive and long-range strikes, because when the Xiyun Xuance army arrived at this array, it must be in a decisive place, since there is no way to retreat behind him, then the only way to fight to the death is, when the round array is engaged, the two sides pull together, and the long-range strike will be injured by mistake, there is no point, as for defense, there is no need for it, without reinforcements, it will be defeated for a long time, so unless the enemy army is completely defeated, otherwise we can only fight to the death and not retreat. β
The battle of the dead, no wonder everyone has to be put in the position of attack, but will the Xiyun Xuance army be useful to this formation? At that time, I don't know who will be protected in the center of the circle.
After the training in the morning, it was time for lunch, today's lunch was still very hard, a large pot of boiled mutton, fragrant, Shangguan Lingling told Xiyun Xuance Army that we would continue to challenge the trial of courage in the afternoon, the end of the meal of the sergeants led by more than 30 officers and Liang was a little more fierce than others, I was a little dumbfounded when I saw it, and couldn't help but whisper to Lu Worm, "Worm, what's going on with these guys, what are you stimulated, how do you look like you're about to duel with the enemy?"
Lu Worm glanced at Shangguan Liang and them, "Hey, aren't you an enemy, yesterday Lao Tong didn't know what to smoke crazy, he kept pulling Shangguan Liang and them to drink, and his words were quite rude, saying that those who were afraid of drinking were eggless cowards, Shangguan Liang Where were they willing to accept this bird's anger, grabbed the wine glass and did it with Lao Tong, what level did Lao Tong have, one person drank them all down, especially Shangguan Liang, who fainted on the ground and kept convulsing and spitting out wine, embarrassed and embarrassed, can you not hold grudges." β
After Lu Worm finished speaking, Lei Tong was next to him and laughed, I glared at him and scolded, "Bear-like, if you can't fight, you can fight for wine, what's the difference between that and not being able to lose, aren't you adding to the chaos." β
Lei Tong said disapprenousively, "Lao Tzu cares about him so much, and after he drinks down, he talks about the fight, Lao Tzu still doesn't believe that he can keep losing to them, and he will have to get the field back later." β
"Don't talk so much," I gnawed on the lamb stick bone in my hand, "We lost too quickly yesterday, it is very likely that we haven't seen the full strength of Shangguan Liang and them, judging from the training just now, the formation awareness of the Xiyun Xuan Ce Army is even higher than I imagined, we still have to be careful, in case the boat capsizes in the gutter again due to negligence, it will become a complete laughing stock." β
Thinking of yesterday's fiasco, Lei Tong and Lu Worm have converged a lot, silently gnawed the mutton in their hands, and as a result, the speed of the two of them is getting faster and faster, I don't have to think about it, these two people must be up to the top of Guan Liang and they are more energetic, I am also really drunk, a group of big men, how can they be like children, everything has to fight for a high level.
After eating lunch and resting for a while, the trial of courage was ready to start under the command of Shangguan Lingling, Shangguan Liang and they still put out the same mutant mandarin duck formation as yesterday, and after I determined the combat tactics with Lu Worm and Lei Tong again, I raised my hand to signal that Shangguan Lingling could start.
With a sharp whistle, the three of us moved, and began to move in a counterclockwise direction, and the three of us played together in a flank circle was quite unusual, but the well-trained Xiyun Xuan Ce Army still reacted immediately, and the five diagonally raised spears were picked up to make way for space, this is normal, in our plan, the main thing used to delay the shield hand is the five flat spears, because of the angle, they can't make way to move through the upward pick like the other five, they can only slowly retract, until they completely withdraw the spear, the shield hand can't turn to move, and the opportunity we are looking for is in this time gapγ
To my surprise, the reaction of the Xiyun Xuance Army was far less clumsy than I had planned, the five flat spears did not retract at all, but fell to the ground at the first time, and the shield hand stepped on the spear and turned towards us, the speed was much faster than I expected, my heart sank, the secret path was not good, I didn't expect that the Xiyun Xuance Army would deal with the emergency situation so quickly, and it broke my original plan at once.
At this time, the three of us are about five positions parallel to the shield player, and when we rush to the front of the opponent's formation, it is estimated that we will be pulled closer to two positions, this distance is too short, and it can't achieve the purpose of cutting into the side at all, at most it can only be regarded as a slight deviation from the direction of attack, but now it is definitely too late to change the plan, I have to let Lei Tong and Lu Worm start in advance, and I keep trying to recover some time.
Lei Tong received my order, his right foot against the ground began to brake, the double dragon halberd in his hand by the momentum of the round smashed to the shield hand chasing us, the double dragon halberd attack is too fierce, the shield hand did not dare to slack, quickly turned around and Zama resisted the whole body shield, but unfortunately the strength of ordinary people and the same gap is too big, want to take the same double dragon halberd with their own strength is pure fantasy, after the double dragon halberd smashed to the shield surface, the shield hand and the shield were beaten back together, and only after retreating three positions did he stabilize his body with the help of other shield players.
Several shield players went forward with the double dragon halberd, and Lei Tong took two quick steps to stab the double dragon halberd into the ground, and then tightly held the halberd body to stop the pace of the shield hand, after the shield hand was contained, Lu Worm launched an assault from the other side of the double dragon halberd, and the two sword and shield hands met it, Lu Worm shouted a tiger cannon, and smashed his fists on the round shield of the two sword and shield hands, and the sword and shield hands could not resist the impact of the tiger teeth, and took off directly into the air and into the formation.
Although the two sword and shield men were defeated as soon as they combined, the strong reaction force also made the momentum of Lu Worm be neutralized, and the six chain hammer men pounced out and entangled Lu Worm, and at this time, I had already pulled the shield hand out of a dozen positions and saw the archers who were hidden behind the formation.
The archers also saw me, six feathered arrows shot at me, I turned and rushed forward, the snake letter hooked the sword and twisted the feather arrows, after solving the first wave of feather arrows, the other two sword and shield men rolled out through the battle array and slashed at my feet, I jumped into the air, swung the knife in my left hand and slashed at the second wave of feather arrows, and flicked the snake letter with my right hand, and the sword crossed an arc through the short bows of the six archers, and rolled back, I pulled the snake letter with all my strength, intending to take the short bow, of course the archers did not let it, they held the bow with both hands and pulled it into their arms, the snake letter slid along the bow body, and the burrly chain easily cut the bowstring of the short bow, the six archers couldn't help but be dumbfounded in unison.
After solving the long-range threat, I turned around and landed with *** Swinging away the defense of the two sword and shield hands, one kicked the two to the side, and rushed to the pikeman who lost protection in the center, taking this opportunity to observe the battle situation by the way, at this time the shield hand has broken through the barrier of Lei Tong, and cooperated with the chain hammer hand to attack Lu Worm, Lei Tong wanted to go to the rescue, but he couldn't get close under the harassment of the five spears, and it was only a matter of time before Lu Worm was defeated under the attack of the chain hammer hand and the shield hand, that is, my attack on the pikeman next will be our only chance to win.
Ten pikemen, five are fighting with the thunder, five are standing by with spears, they saw me driving straight in, kicked the tail of the gun from the ground and picked me up, I have to say that their choice is quite correct, up to four meters of vertical spear, if you hit me from top to bottom, it is too late, I can grab them in their arms before the head of the gun falls, when the short knife touches the spear, the victory or defeat is self-evident, and now they meet the enemy with the tail of the gun, greatly reducing the launch time, and can block in front of me in time.
But is it useful, in the face of five top-picked gun tails, I jumped to the top of their heads with a somersault, limited by the length of the spear, the tail of the gun can not be picked up at a too high angle, so that the tail of the gun can not reach me, the head of the gun has no time to reverse, I am almost already in the grip of victory, just when I was about to cut the spearman, the two sergeants who had been hiding in the battle formation without weapons moved, and the two of them jumped up together and pounced on me, but I was not flustered, at this time the overall situation will be decided, and the two of them alone cannot defeat meγ
I casually picked a knife at the chest of one of them, and the other hand flew out of the snake letter and rolled to the neck of the remaining person, in the face of my attack, these two people had to retreat, otherwise they would be killed on the spot, but what I never expected was that the two of them had no intention of retreating, just stretched out their hands and grabbed me regardless of it, I was taken aback, the *** in my hand Although there is a white cloth wrap, but under this momentum, there is still a possibility of breaking in, not to mention the snake letter, without any protection, as long as it rolls up the opponent's neck, it will be a result of a broken throat, and in desperation, I had to take the initiative to withdraw my attack.
After I took back *** and snake letter, the two of them successfully grabbed my body, and under the weight of the two of them, I was forced to fall from the air to the ground, at which time the tail of the spear picked up by the five pikemen suddenly stretched out, and the cross lock was locked around my waist, and the sword and shield hand who I kicked over also rushed over and put the knife to my neck.
After Shangguan Lingling blew the end whistle three times, she came over and scolded the sergeants for removing the restraint on me, I retracted it depressedly, and said to Shangguan Lingling with uneven words, "Shangguan is a good sergeant who is the commander of the **, we have lost this time." β
I was unhappy in my heart, because the two people who pounced on me in the end were almost cheating, it was obviously a deliberate and desperate move, Shangguan Lingling also saw my dissatisfaction, and explained, "The Dao Commander doesn't have to mind, the two dead soldiers are the configuration in the battle formation, even if the Dao Commander didn't retract the attack just now and killed them on the spot, he would be forced to land under the control of the two, and the outcome would be no different." β
I choked for a moment, indeed, if I didn't withdraw the attack, *** would have pierced the opponent's chest, and the snake letter would also be trapped in the opponent's neck, under the weight of the two of them, unless I threw away the weapon, otherwise, the landing momentum was still inevitable.
