Chapter 367: The Wonderful Use of the Formation
In the camp of the quicksand country, the general is anxious.
The 300,000 troops in the front, 300,000 in the rear, and 600,000 troops flanked them, making the situation of their 100,000 people quite bad.
And the other side only opened the position, but did not attack. Obviously, they can make them fall apart in an instant, but they are like cats catching mice, only playing and not eating, this kind of silent torment is the most abrasive.
And the most terrifying thing is that different voices began to appear in the ranks again. Although he only faintly heard a sentence or two, he believed that it was not his delusion, and that someone had said something like, 'If you can't do it, surrender.'"
Although such thinking has not yet spread throughout the army, in such a desperate situation, negativity is contagious.
Once everyone decides that there is only one way to surrender, the thought of 'not wanting to fight' will erode everyone's fighting spirit like a plague.
But he didn't want to surrender.
If it was before, in order to keep the 100,000 army, even if it was surrendered, he would admit it. But now, the other party is the one who destroyed his hometown, and if the country of quicksand ceases to exist, it means that he will have no place to stay. His relatives, his lovers, his friends, the people he knew and did not know, and even his fathers and fathers, who had died, were all gone away from him. How could he make such a humiliating act of surrender to such an enemy as he could?
"Both horizontal and vertical are dead, and they are still hesitating?" For the first time, Zhao San admired the other party's tragic situation on the top of the city tower. Even if the war had not yet begun, even if he did not see the bloody dead man with missing arms and legs as clearly as on the battlefield, he could feel the despair conveyed by the other party more than ever before.
It's an amazing feeling. He even thought that this was a pleasure that people who were always fighting on the battlefield could not feel.
The enemy who invades his own country is at the end of his might, and although he is alive, he is equal to dead. Because each of them knows that death is the fastest way to get out of such a desperate situation.
"If it were me, and the other party would only put on a formation of five people, I would hesitate." Sun Xiu smiled bitterly. It's amazing. Such a war that does not follow common sense is the first time he has seen it in his life.
This Miss Fang, you say that he is an expert, she does not take the path of real swords and real guns. But you say he's a layman, she just didn't waste a single soldier, and easily wore out this group of arrogant enemies.
Such a way of warfare, let alone him, is to dig out those old generals who have been resting in coffins for many years, I am afraid that they will also feel breathtaking.
And he was the same as the others who were most curious, they all wanted to know, what was going on in the camp of the Quicksand Country?
"Sleeves, Zhuang Han, you say, will they move forward or backward?" Zhao San asked with a cheap smile on his face, and Sun Xiu and Zhuang Han on both sides and several other thousand-person captains all looked at Zhao San curiously, because they had never seen such a cheap and obscene brute bull with such a smile before.
"Advance is death, retreat is death, I think they cut themselves faster." Zhuang Han looked down expressionlessly, not feeling pity because the other party was at the end of the road.
Have mercy on these sinners, but who should have mercy on their dead brothers and innocent people?
"Nonsense!" Zhao San shook his head speechlessly.
"Perhaps, they can also choose to break to the left and right, where the trees and grass are overgrown to make it easy to dodge, and if they sacrifice the burdens behind them, they may be able to escape one or two. It's like ......" said this, but Sun Xiu kept his mouth shut. He originally wanted to say that just like General Fang at that time, if only a dozen or twenty people could escape from the encirclement, it would not be worthless.
However, he soon realized that this was not something to bring up again. Although they are known as reckless men by the world, they can only fight and kill people, but Liang Bo's simple and flawed strategy can easily be completed almost perfectly among them.
If the eldest lady hadn't arrived in Beiyan, if she hadn't threatened Dao Yin to mutiny, would these things have ended with an almost absurd ending as Liang Bo thought?
Just as in response to Sun Xiu's words, the team below did start moving, not retreating, nor forward, but rushing towards the left.
Sun Xiu was stunned to see the other party giving face like this, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she also felt a little embarrassed. I wanted to say something, but I didn't know how to say it.
He is probably the crow's mouth in the legend at the moment, a good spirit who is not a bad spirit, the other party is so obedient, why didn't they listen to him when he told them to die?
He wanted to say a few words to ease the awkward atmosphere, but seeing that many people on the other side had disappeared into the jungle on the left, his face changed rapidly.
He thought to himself, how nice would it be to be a desert? What do you do with so many trees? But think about it, a long time ago, Beiyan was indeed close to the desert, and often suffered from sandstorms, and later, the people of Beiyan began to load all kinds of trees outside the city, and over time, there was a forest here.
Later, the woods were not often tended to by many people, but they seemed to be tenaciously rooted in the land, and the trees not only did not wither, but grew more and more luxuriant. This grove has been going out, where it is very close to Dayu, and Dayu Chao saw that the trees could avoid sandstorms to the greatest extent, so they also began to plant trees such measures, so the woods are getting bigger and bigger, and this piece of interconnected land at this moment is completely different from the original barrenness.
It's a pity that the people of Beiyan became poorer and poorer, and he didn't know for what reason, so later, this forest was not further expanded. Nowadays, the terrain has changed, and the soil is not as soft and sparse as before, but it is possible to grow crops that could not be grown before.
After that, this forest was used by them and Dayu to set a trap for the enemy.
However, this trap is very low-level, and most people can avoid it if they are on guard, but after all, it is better than nothing.
He had never wished it was a desert, as far as the eye could see, but everything was under his nose.
But Fang Xiaoyu didn't seem to be in a hurry, just watched the other party withdraw indifferently, and did not order the pursuit, but said: "They can't escape." Then he continued to watch.
The strange thing is that even the 50,000 troops led by General Fang did not dispatch, and not only that, but retreated.
Ren is Sun Xiushan is calculating, and he doesn't understand Fang Xiaoyu's plan. It could have been killed or captured without falling, but if left unchecked, it is unknown how many will escape.
However, his thoughts only lasted for a short time, and he found that some people did not flee with the remnants of the soldiers in front of him, but shouted at the top of their voices in waves.
Zhao Sanna was disappointed, with a shriveled face and a look of no one entering, it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the other party's surrender. He wanted to see them all annihilated on this battlefield, which would be enough to relieve his hatred.
But he also knew that the other party surrendered, so as to lose as little as possible some of our soldiers, so he was just disappointed, and did not make any other moves.
Then I saw that the general at the rear sent people to tie up all the nearly 10,000 people who surrendered, and the 50,000 Gyeonggi guards were in charge of guarding them.
And in front of the 50,000 Gyeonggi guards, Shi Situ stood beside Fang Jianzhang across the horse, and he could see Fang Xiaoyu who had become a black spot on the city wall from a distance, but he felt that there had never been a woman as chic as her. It made him admire.
He looked at the woman who was following him again and thought, "Well, you're fine too." ”
Then I saw that Sizhu was stared at by Shi Situ's somewhat gentle gaze, and his face turned red rarely, which made Shi Situ smile with a sly face, and felt that he had finally won back Yicheng.
The surrender of nearly 10,000 people almost did not anger the general to death. The remaining remnants of the army were shaken by the surrender of the 10,000 men, and some low-level traps in the woods made him extremely irritable.
After nearly a day and a night's journey, the woods finally brought him to an end. The moment he saw the light in front of him, he had a strange feeling, not the joy of escaping from death, not the excitement of wanting to kill the enemy again to take revenge, but doubt. Full of doubts.
Why didn't the other party chase? Although they encountered some low-level traps along the way, they lost a few people, and they almost walked very plainly, without encountering pursuers, without encountering interceptions, everything was like wandering in their own back garden, and it was calm and a little scary.
There was always some uneasiness in his heart, but he could not find a reason for the uneasiness. He guessed that the other party must have a purpose in luring them back to the walls of the border city, but he couldn't guess what the purpose was.
However, the excitement of finding a way out finally overcame the doubts in his heart, and he ordered the army to move forward at full speed, leaving the range of the border city first, and then he could go to Da Zhou, and then find an opportunity to avenge everyone in the quicksand country!
On the top of the castle tower in the border city, several people just moved a chair and sat and squinted for a while. It had been a day and a night since the remnants of the Quicksand Country had fled, but Fang Xiaoyu did not send troops to pursue, but fell asleep on the city tower.
Everyone was holding back their doubts, but they didn't want to ask each other. Only Zhao San was bold and free-spirited, and asked questions on behalf of everyone, but Fang Xiaoyu only smiled and said, "Just wait and see." So I waited until now.
Waiting for the unknown is a very tiring thing, and everyone's spirit is a little decadent, but because they are too curious about what kind of medicine Fang Xiaoyu sells in the gourd, so although Fang Xiaoyu said that they can go back and rest, they all insist on this city tower, wanting to see how it will develop in the end.
The most tormented is the five Liang Bo. With the consciousness that he would die on the battlefield at any time, he faced the other party's hundreds of thousands of horses with five people, but in the end, he just stared at the woods on the left and fled. He didn't chase for a while, so he had to ask Fang Xiaoyu for instructions at the top of his throat, but he got Fang Xiaoyu's extremely simple two-word answer: "Wait." ”
So, they waited for a day and a night, and finally simply sat down at the gate of the city, ate dry food, and waited listlessly for an unknown with a pot of wine.
However, he soon discovered that something was wrong. He heard footsteps. And there were a lot of people, he immediately became alert, and sent an alarm to Fang Xiaoyu on the city tower.
And Fang Xiaoyu was so keenly perceiving, she heard the footsteps one step earlier than Liang Bo, and then lifted the blanket that Zhou An had covered her, got up and looked down.
The people on the city tower were all sobered up by Fang Xiaoyu's movements, and they also began to look at the place where Fang Xiaoyu was looking, and saw a group of people rushing out of the woods in a panic, and then looked around, panicking and feeling the scene in front of them, like a plate of loose sand.
"What's going on? How did they come back again? Although Zhao San was excited, he was confused.
"They also seem to be confused." Zhuang Han pointed to the scattered team below, and also showed a rare look of doubt.
"Miss, this is ......" Zhou An and Huainan lived in Daochen's house in Willow Hutong for a few days, and naturally came into contact with some people and things. They had guessed something in their hearts at the moment, but they were still shocked.
Fang Xiaoyu nodded, and said disdainfully: "If they want to escape, let them escape, I won't chase or rush, because sooner or later they will turn back by themselves." What is their formation as the Ji family? Not to mention an army of 100,000, even another million can still trap them on this battlefield. ”
Fang Xiaoyu was very confident in the Ji family's formation. The formation family really lives up to its reputation.
All this that the remnants of the Quicksand Country are going through now, in the future, some people call it a ghost hitting the wall, but in fact, it is just a set of formations arranged by Ji Wu, Ji Xuan and others. But it took her a lot of effort, after all, to arrange such a huge formation under the noses of the Beiyan defenders, the original sword cause was indispensable. And Liang Bo thought that the quicksand country was not worried about him and sent people to investigate, so he didn't care about it, which was also a huge credit.
"Formation?" Zhao San scratched his head, and seemed to be a little unable to turn around.
Of course he had heard of the formation, but he had always thought that it was something mysterious and mysterious, and to put it bluntly, he didn't believe in that thing.
Of course, the so-called formation has never been associated with fighting.
If you can win a war by just relying on a formation, then what do you need these generals to do?
However, when he witnessed the terrifying formation with his own eyes, he knew that the formation was actually a good auxiliary. For example, now, the other party is going around and turning back on his own. They don't need to send troops, they don't need to pursue, they just sleep on the top of the city, and the other party will go back to throwing themselves into the net, so convenient.
The shock in Zhao San's heart became deeper and deeper. Sure enough, you can't jump to conclusions about things you haven't seen before. This formation, if used properly, will be a good war aid.
However, the formation is used together in a strange word. As long as the formation gradually becomes popular, although the effect is there, it will definitely not be as powerful as it is today.
He could even predict that after today, the formation would gradually be valued by all countries. In future wars, the shadow of formations may be seen everywhere.
Zhao San immediately lowered his face. Doesn't that mean that he may also fall into someone else's formation in the future?
And if he wants to learn something as complicated as a formation......
Oh my God, kill him! (To be continued.) )
