"This formation is mainly through the curtain of colored flags, blocking the other party's view. In addition, the beating of gongs and drums disturbs the judgment of the opponent, so as to use the arms to restrain each other or form a local fight to fight more and less, so as to achieve the purpose of destroying the opponent's vital force. Seeing Yang Yun looking at the two sides who were fighting, there was some confusion in their eyes. Guo Long, who was on the side, said in his ear.

As the former generalissimo of the Chu State, Guo Long was well aware of some of the political and legal policies commonly used by the Chu army. After his explanation, Yang Yun understood the truth.

"Then is there any danger in this formation for my fifth brother?" Yang Yun turned to Guo Long and asked.

"Hehe, Yang Ming, this guy is very sophisticated! This kind of combination of virtual and real formation, I believe he will soon be able to see the clues. So the two sides will become a battle again, without any fancy face-to-face fights. Guo Long said with a smile on the side.

Everyone watched from the side for more than an hour, and the shouts and gongs and drums in the formation gradually became smaller, and after a while. A big opening suddenly appeared in the formation of the Chu army. Countless Dafu soldiers rushed out of the mouth of the formation with shouts.

After about a stick of incense, these Dafu soldiers who went out to fight returned to their own camp.

Yang Yun stood aside, and judging from the visual inspection, about ninety percent of the 50,000 Dafu soldiers who went out this time rushed out of the opponent's formation unharmed. In other words, in this battle, Dafu lost about 5,000 soldiers. I don't know, how many soldiers of the Chu State who set up the formation died?

"Haha! I don't think your formation is very good. This king doesn't come and go freely! Yang Ming returned to his own camp, brandished the bloody long knife in his hand, and pointed at the opposing camp and said.

"His Royal Highness King Shengwang really lives up to his reputation, in this battle, your army lost five or six thousand people, and our side also killed three or four thousand people, although our loss is smaller, but we set up a formation, so this time, even if it is a tie!" Yu Xian appeared in front of the soldiers of the Chu State and said loudly.

Since the battle array did not distinguish the winner or loser, the generals of the two sides did not hesitate to command their respective troops. They fought together again, and it was not until it was late in the evening that the Ming army collected its troops and returned to their respective camps.

In the days that followed, the two sides fought several more major battles, and since the strength of the two sides was about the same, the generals who commanded the operations were all people who were familiar with military books and had rich experience. Therefore, in the past few days of the war, the two sides have suffered damage to each other, but neither has dealt a fatal blow to the other side.

As the saying goes, if you kill a thousand enemies, you will lose 800 yourself. The generals of the two sides were arrogant people, and they were not satisfied with such a situation, and they all thought that they had to find a way to expand the results of the battle.

So in the next few days, the two sides had a tacit understanding and chose a temporary truce. But behind the scenes, what kind of strategy is being planned? Then only the person concerned knows.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yang Ming looked at the generals sitting in the tent and asked them to discuss a strategy that could inflict heavy damage on the enemy at the smallest cost.

Yang Ming is the famous god of war and a strong contender for the position of crown prince. Being able to make a good impression in front of him is not a small thing. Therefore, the generals in the account racked their brains and expressed their opinions one after another, and put forward many strategies for Yang Ming to choose.

That night, in the military account of King Yang Ming, the lights were almost bright all night. Yang Ming and his thinkers discussed the night in the tent, analyzing the possibilities of each proposal.

"Lord Yu, it's not good! There were horses drinking in the creek behind the tent, poisoned to death! Yu Xian was meditating in the camp, and a soldier hurriedly ran to report to him.

Yu Xian took the most powerful general in the camp and followed the people to the stable to check it out. I saw that several war horses in the stables were already lying on the ground, some of the horses were dead, and some were dying, and they could no longer live.

"We called the veterinarian in the army, and he said that the horses were all poisoned. We asked the soldiers who kept the horses, and they said that the horses had all been drunk in the ditch behind the tent. The official in charge of Ma Pi said cautiously.

So the group went to the small river behind the tent, and saw that the river was no different from usual. However, there were some dead fish on the river's edge, and it seemed that the water was indeed poisonous.

"This king is really generous! How much poison is needed to poison the flowing water! It's also a pity that he came up with it, but it's a pity that I have these good war horses. Tell the soldiers to dig some deep wells a few hundred meters away from the river, so that the soaked water will not be poisonous. "Being able to command these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, Yu Xian is not an ordinary person.

"It doesn't matter if the river is poisoned, the toxins will be dispersed in a day or two when the water flows, and they can't find so many poisons to release every day. It's just that it looks like they're starting to play tricks, so we have to be extra careful! Next to Yu Xian, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar said.

"Hmph, come and don't be rude! We also have to find a way to give them good looks. Another general in battle armor said angrily.

And just like that, both sides got into action, and they made their own moves. Both brought some trouble to the other side and took some damage to the morale of both sides.

These tricks make the delivery of supplies on both sides, the travel of soldiers, and the cohesion of the team. are affected in some way. But for the entire team of hundreds of thousands, its impact is still limited. And as both sides strengthen their defenses, the effectiveness of these approaches becomes less and less.

One night a few days later, there were no stars or moon in the sky, and it was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers. About two and a half ascent, the gate on the west side of the Golan City quietly opened, and a pair of men in black, with swords in their hands and horses in their hands, quietly rushed out of the gate.

These horses are covered with black cloth, so that they are not easy to be found in the night. And the mouths of these war horses. They are all covered with a sleeve so that they can't make a sound. Even the horses' hooves are wrapped in a thick cloth, so that they don't make too much noise when the horses are running.

This group of black-clothed men, after leaving Golan City, bypassed the direction of the Chu military camp tent far away and galloped towards the northwest.

These black-clothed men traveled about twenty miles to the northwest, and suddenly changed direction again, and they followed a small road to the rear of the Chu army camp.

A few miles behind the Chu army camp, there was a small hill, and around the hill, there were seven or eight thousand Chu army soldiers and regimental protectors.

It seems that there should be something very important to the Chu army on this mountain bag. These Chu State soldiers, who were responsible for protection, divided into many patrol teams, day and night, to check everything around them, and were ready to meet the attack at any time.

These black-clothed people came to the vicinity of this small hill, hid in a small forest, and looked at the soldiers of the Chu State who kept patrolling back and forth, without making a sound. Out of the black-clad men came a group of men with swords and bows and arrows, and they crept towards the patrolling soldiers.

These men in black, with the help of bushes and trees, quickly sneaked towards the patrolling soldiers. Seeing that these patrolling soldiers were getting closer and closer, further on, there was an open space without any shelter.

At this time, if you continue to sneak around, you will definitely be discovered by these soldiers of the Chu State who are patrolling. So, the man in black in the lead raised his hand and motioned to the soldiers behind him to hide his figure.

These black-clothed men who were hiding were very patient, and they actually hid in the same position for more than an hour, and they didn't move at all, let alone make any sound.

This more than an hour of hiding still had a reward, because they found that these soldiers patrolling in the Chu State often had to change their sentry posts after the time of two sticks of incense, that is, after the action, they had time for two pillars of incense to rush to the hill.

After discovering this pattern, the leading man in black made a gesture to the rear, signaling them to get ready. The black-clothed people in the rear understood, quietly put down the swords in their hands, took off the longbow on their backs, set up their arrows, and prepared to attack.

The time for the soldiers of the Chu State to change their guard has come again, and when they saw the previous wave of soldiers, they disappeared into the darkness. The man in black in the lead, with a happy look on his face, waved his hand decisively, and the men in black holding bows and arrows in the back saw this, and immediately filled the longbow in their hands.

Immediately after, a long arrow, with a low roar, shot at this group of patrolling Chu soldiers.

These patrolling Chu soldiers didn't even have time to pull out a scream. All of them were shot into hedgehogs by these sudden bows and arrows, and they had to fall to the ground unwillingly.

Seeing that the pair of men in black in front had knocked down the soldiers patrolling the other side, the men in black in the rear quickly took action, and they rushed towards the hill with lightning speed.

After a while, these men in black came to the halfway point of the hill bag: "Quick! Set the rockets on fire and scatter them into the granaries on the hill. As long as we can burn all the grain of the Chu army, we will make a great contribution. ”

With this shout, the men in black quickly took action, and countless flaming long arrows shot towards the hill bag, and in a short time a raging fire broke out on the hill bag.

"Retreat! We can't escape when the enemy comes! A voice from one of the men in black suddenly sounded.

Immediately afterwards, these black-clothed men quickly turned around and quickly ran towards the bottom of the mountain bag.

"If you want to run, grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time!" At this moment, under the small mountain bag, a shout was suddenly heard, followed by countless torches. At the same time, it burns up, and the entire hill around the bag is illuminated.

Under the light, I saw countless soldiers of the Chu State standing around the hill and surrounding the hill.

"Our generalissimo has already guessed that you want to come and burn our grain and grass, and you have already called us to wait for you, you can't escape, hurry up and catch it!" In the Chu army's camp, a voice shouted, and there was obvious smugness in his tone.

"Oops! Fallen into the ambush of these Chu dogs, brothers! Come on! Fight with them! One of the men in black shouted.
