The old man sighed before the war, Chapter 29, the Big Dipper Long Snake

"Cheng'er! You don't accompany Ding'er, what do you do when you come to find your father? Luo Yi looked at his son and guessed his intentions.

Yesterday, the backer king Pegasus Kuaishu, in addition to bringing the news of Qin Qiong's rebellion in Wagangzhai, actually has an order, and it is Ding Yanping, the double-gun general of Beiping Mansion, who wants to be transferred. This order ostensibly wanted Ding Yanping to assist Yang Lin in breaking through Wagang, but his real intention was nothing more than to see if he Luo Yi really colluded with Qin Qiong. If he agrees to transfer people, then Beiping Mansion will naturally be fine, if he does not agree, although Beiping Mansion will not be in danger for the time being, but after the Eastern Crusade, I am afraid that there will be wolf smoke. So, he had to let Ding Yanping go! And Wagangzhai was besieged by Yang Lin, and there was a good chance that someone had notified Luo Cheng of this news, so Luo Cheng would come to him to find out the truth.

In fact, just as Luo Yi guessed, Wagangzhai not only sent Xie Yingdeng to inform Luo Cheng of the incident, but also hoped that Luo Cheng could go over to the rescue. Because at this time, Wagangzhai has been surrounded by Yang Lin's Beidou Long Snake Array, and in Wagangzhai, because Yang Lin acted too fast, the owners of the village have not arrived at all, and Wagangzhai has been besieged. Now in Wagang Village, there are only the original people in Xiawagang Village and Qin Qiong and others who went to rescue Cheng Biting Jin, so they can only close their doors and wait for help. And the owners of the village who came late outside, because they didn't know much about military strategy, couldn't break the Beidou Long Snake Formation at all, and seeing that Wagangzhai was about to fall into a crisis of food shortage, Wang Bodang hurriedly asked Xie Yingdeng to come to Beiping Mansion for help, hoping that Luo Cheng could have a way to break the formation. But what Wang Bodang didn't know was that Luo Cheng didn't know how to break the formation, but Luo Cheng knew that his father Luo Yi had fought against Yang Lin back then, and maybe he would know how to break the formation, so he came to explore the situation.

"Dad, the child wants to ask you, have you heard of the Beidou Long Snake Formation?" Luo Cheng's intention was really as Luo Yi expected, he spoke straightforwardly, and directly asked the Beidou Long Snake Formation used by Yang Lin to besiege Wagang.

"Yes." Luo Yi's answer made Luo Cheng happy, but then his face suddenly stiffened, "But I haven't seen it." Cheng'er! You should know that only by knowing how to operate can you find a way to crack the formation. When Yang Lin came to attack Beiping Mansion, he didn't use the long snake formation at all, how did his father know how to break it? Luo Yi looked at Luo Cheng, and his heart was also entangled, because he didn't want Luo Cheng to go in his heart. At present, the situation in Beiping Mansion is different from the past, and if he is not careful, he may not recover, and he does not dare to take this risk. But Qin Qiong is his nephew, if he doesn't save it, his wife Qin Shengzhu will know about it in the future, and I'm afraid it will be indispensable to make trouble with him.

"However, as a father, I know that there is someone who may be able to break this formation." Luo Yi's words changed, anyway, Luo Cheng couldn't find this person, and it didn't hurt to say it. Luo Cheng hurriedly asked, "Who is this person?" ”

"The fourth son of the former Zhongshu Shilang, Xiao Zhuo."

"Him?" Luo Cheng was surprised. When he was in Luoyang, Xiao Zhuo invited him to drink with Su Dingfang, but at that time, he was angry and was used by Xiao Zhuo, so he didn't go at all, but he didn't expect this person to have this ability.

"Hmmm! In the fourteenth year of the emperor's reign, the first emperor inspected the three armies of the school, and at that time, Yang Lin had laid out a long snake formation in the school field, and invited the generals to discuss the method of breaking the formation, but no one could break it. And Xiao Zhuo, who was fourteen years old at the time, said that although the Long Snake Array was exquisite, it had a fatal flaw. The generals asked him what his shortcomings were, but he just stepped forward and whispered a few words to the backer king, and then Yang Lin praised Xiao Yu and said: Lord Xiao has a son like this, it is really my great Sui's luck! Then Yang Lin changed the long snake formation again and again, and this is the current Beidou long snake formation. Therefore, even if it is Xiao Zhuo, it is unknown whether he can break this formation. After Luo Yi finished speaking, he looked at Luo Cheng, and sure enough, he had a look of disappointment.

"I see. So how do these dads know? You haven't been to Chang'an? The careful Luo Cheng still grasped some loopholes in his father's words.

"My father has never been there, but your father......-in-law was there at the time," Luo Yi said this, and when he saw the herald coming outside, he stopped mentioning the matter and asked the herald: "What is the report?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, General Su sent someone to deliver a military report."

Luo Yi stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that it was indeed a report written by Su Dingfang himself, saying that there was an abnormal movement in the Turkic army in the north of Yanyun, and because Qin Yong was recuperating from his injuries, he asked Luo Cheng to go to guard for a while.

"Cheng'er! In the book of Dingfang, it is said that there is an abnormal movement in the northern Turks, and you will be sent to guard it for your father, and you are willing to go. If you go, go to Dingfang to receive the military order, and hurry over as soon as possible, and if you don't want to go, go and say it. ”

"Yes, the boy obeys!" didn't find a way to break the formation, Luo Cheng didn't want to stay any longer, Luo Yi saw that he was a little excited, and pretended not to see it and went back to the house.

----

"Brother Xiao, in fact, it's not a big deal, you see us Yanyun soldiers, saying that it is Yanyun soldiers, in fact, there are some people whose families are in the Central Plains, and some are near Luoyang, so Brother Xiao went back this time, I want to ask you to help bring a few family letters." In the mansion of the commander of the Fierce Tiger Army, Su Dingfang was drinking with Xiao Zhuo, saying that he was accompanied, but Su Dingfang didn't drink a glass of wine, but fortunately, Xiao Zhuo knew why, and he didn't care about Su Dingfang, so he just poured himself there slowly.

"How many?" Xiao Zhuo took a sip and looked up again to ask. This kind of thing is done by a messenger in the imperial court, and he can ignore it, but the imperial court messenger can only go back and forth almost once a month, and now it is the end of June, no wonder Su Dingfang asked him to bring a letter.

"Not much, one or two hundred." When Xiao Zhuo heard this, the wine glass in his hand stopped in mid-air, and teased: "One or two hundred? It's really not a lot for someone like you who has tens of thousands of people under your hands. Take it! ”

As soon as Su Dingfang took the letter, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance outside the tent, and as soon as the footsteps arrived outside the tent, the human voice had already sounded, "Brother, can you send someone else to the north?" You know, Ding'er ...... her? ”

As soon as Luo Cheng stepped into the door, he saw Xiao Zhuo sitting in the room at a glance, he was surprised and delighted, and what he was going to say had long been forgotten. turned to ask Xiao Zhuo, "Are you?" Xiao Zhuo? Because of Luoyang's fate, Luo Cheng still remembers who the person in front of him is.

"It's rare that the little marquis has a good memory, and he hasn't forgotten to be in the next, he invited the little marquis to drink in Luoyang that day, and the little marquis refused to appreciate his face, and he met again today, would you like to have a drink together?" Xiao Zhuo picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Luo Cheng, but Luo Cheng thought about it and finally took it.

"Little Marquis, did you just say that the northern border sent someone else? It's not impossible, I'll let Wan Jun ......" As soon as Su Dingfang said this, Luo Cheng immediately opened his mouth and cut off: "Brother, I thought about it just now, Wan Jun is your personal follower, it's better not to let him go, but I, I can better share my father's worries with more soldiers, so I'll go." ”

"That's good." Su Dingfang saw that Luo Cheng was willing to go, so he didn't say much, and after taking out the seal letter and handing it to Luo Cheng, he pushed a burden in front of Xiao Zhuo and said, "Here, that's all, it's not heavy, I can't tire you." ”

Xiao Zhuo smiled, took the burden with one hand, picked up the wine glass and said, "The little marquis is going to the north to defend against the enemy?" I wish you a triumphant return, come! ”

Luo Cheng saw Xiao Zhuo drink it, and also drank a cup before asking, "Thank you for your kindness." Xiao Gongzi, I heard that you know a lot about the military formation, I don't know if you can teach me, so that I can triumph as soon as possible! Luo Cheng was begging for others, and he spoke modestly.

Heard? Xiao Zhuo looked at him suspiciously, he really didn't know who Luo Cheng heard about it. Su Dingfang? I don't seem to have discussed this with Su Dingfang? Who else?

"Brother Xiao, do you know how to march and set up a formation?" Su Dingfang, who has been in the army for many years, was interested when he heard it, and immediately sat down on the table to pick up the pen and ink, preparing to record what Xiao Zhuo said today.

"I can't say I understand!" When Xiao Zhuo saw this situation, he was embarrassed to say that he didn't understand at all, but said modestly: "Because I was friendly with Yuwen Cheng when I was a child, I have seen Xiao Guowei's queue. Moreover, my father and General Han Shige are world friends, so I have seen more than ordinary people. ”

"Brother Xiao, tell me quickly, what military formations have you seen? What is the formation? What is the arrangement of the array eyes? How does it work? Su Dingfang was a little impatient, and urged in various ways.

"Where do you start?" As soon as Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, Luo Cheng answered: "How about talking about the Beidou Long Snake Formation?" ”

Luo Cheng asked, Xiao Zhuo didn't show anything, but Su Dingfang turned his head and looked at Luo Cheng. He knew about Yang Lin's call to Ding Yanping, and naturally he also knew about the siege of Wagang, so Luo Cheng didn't ask about other formations at this time, but asked the Beidou Long Snake Formation alone, which couldn't help but make him a little worried. Could it be that Luo Cheng wants to go to Wagang to rescue? And he said he was going to the North?

"The Big Dipper Long Snake Formation? Let me think. Xiao Zhuo thought for a while before he spoke: "This formation is originally a one-word long snake formation, which is the usual formation of the king of the backer, mainly used to besiege the generals, and it is actually not very useful for large-scale military formations. The reason for its fame, in addition to the prestige of the backer king himself, is that it has never been broken. In addition to the head and tail of the snake, there are two generals guarding the formation, and its formation is mainly composed of shield soldiers, spearmen, and hook and lock soldiers in a fourteen row. The outermost two rows of shield soldiers are used to resist the rescue of external enemy forces, and the other is to echo the inner shield soldiers; The spearmen behind the shield guards are intended to assist the outer shield soldiers to increase their lethality, and at the same time to replenish the inner gunmen at any time to kill and injure the besieged enemy; Further inward are the Hook Locks, a platoon of soldiers designed primarily to deal with cavalry trapped in formation. The rope hook, overcoming the rigidity with softness, the most feared thing for the war horse to break through, is nothing more than this. And the most dangerous thing about this formation is the four rows of shield soldiers in the innermost. Brother Dingfang, how do snakes eat? ”

"If it is a poisonous snake, it kills its prey with its poison, and then swallows the prey whole, and consumes its flesh and blood in its body before spitting it out; If it is a python, the prey will be strangled, and then the prey will be devoured, and the method of eliminating the food is no different from a poisonous snake. Su Dingfang replied.

"So, the danger of this formation is not all about the head and tail of the snake, but in the shield of the snake's belly on its inside. It's a pity that the people who fought with the old prince in the past all paid more attention to the old prince than to the formation, and every time there was a person who rushed into the formation, most of them took the head of the snake by capturing the thief and capturing the king, so that they all fell into the formation and were hanged. Xiao Zhuo was also embarrassed about this, and he was embarrassed by the courage of the old prince who did not hesitate to use himself as bait. Hush is the thinking strategy of those who break into the battle, obviously he can see what he understands at a glance, but those battle-hardened generals can't understand it, maybe it's really a fan of the authorities!

"What does Xiao Gongzi mean is that in order to break this snake formation, you must bypass Yang Lin?" Luo Cheng was most concerned about how to break the formation, so he naturally figured out more about the meaning of Xiao Zhuo's words.

"It's not that it's going to be bypassed, I'm afraid it's also difficult to get around, unless it's deliberately contained. This word long snake formation, the first and last two generals are just two fangs, and its intention is not to kill the generals who charge the formation at all, but to block its impact. Once the enemy's general is blocked, the two generals will disperse, and the long snake formation will be like a giant snake opening its mouth and swallowing the enemy in one gulp. When the time comes, the hook and rope will pull the warrior off his horse, and the sharp blade of the spear will stab his limbs, and the iron shield will become a copper wall that is difficult to shake. When Xiao Zhuo said this, he changed his words and asked: "The two generals have been fighting horses for many years, do they have any experience on how to deal with shield soldiers?" ”

Asked by Xiao Zhuo, Luo Cheng and Su Dingfang were silent for a while, and finally Luo Cheng opened his mouth and replied: "If you deal with a small number of shield soldiers, there is the impact of war horses, and there is no rope to hinder me, I am sure to break through the formation." But without the war horse, and deep siege, the spear is a weapon that is known for its skills, I am afraid it is difficult to use, if you use short soldiers to fight, it is undoubtedly to fight with your own shortcomings, and fight for the strength of others. Unless ......"

"Unless what?" Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but look at Luo Cheng differently.

"Unless the person who shakes the mountains and rivers forcefully tears the shield fence, he can kill from the belly of the snake and die!" Luo Cheng looked at Xiao Zhuo, originally he didn't believe that Xiao Zhuo could break the Long Snake Formation, but after Xiao Zhuo explained how the Long Snake Formation worked, he had to admire Xiao Zhuo. Because Xiao Zhuo's method of fighting the enemy in the long snake formation is the same as what Xie Yingdeng told him: the general blocks the enemy, the hook and lock are drawn, the spear is stabbed, and the iron wall is surrounded by copper. The people of the eighteen villages who first arrived in Wagangzhai forcibly broke into the battle without knowing the depth, and as a result, half of them were buried in the battle, and the rest were captured. So Luo Cheng especially wanted to know if his method could work at the moment.

"What the little marquis said is right! To break this snake array, the first way is to forcibly break through the shield by those who have the power to shake the mountains and rivers, and break out of the snake's belly. As for the second ...... It used to be fine, but now it's hard to say. ”

"Why?" Luo Cheng hurriedly asked. Although he thought of it just now because of forcibly breaking the formation, the next moment he knew that this method had almost no effect on him, not because he couldn't find someone who could shake the mountains and rivers, but because the person he thought of couldn't be used at all. Qin Yong, Luo Shixin, these two were the first things he thought of, but Qin Yong couldn't get out of bed at all at this time, how could he accompany him to break the formation! So it is not advisable. And Luo Shixin is honest, I'm afraid he doesn't know where to rush at all, and Luo Shixin is surrounded in Wagangzhai at this time, and he can't see it at all.

"This second method, which is also easy to say, is to hit the snake seven inches. As we said earlier, the long snake formation, its snake head and snake tail each have two generals with poisonous fangs, it can be said that the snake head is the snake tail, and the snake tail is the snake head, that is to say, there are two seven inches. But as the name suggests, a long snake! In addition to the command of the head and tail generals, there is no one in the middle of this formation, so to fight these two seven inches, in addition to containing the general with the head and tail of the snake, but also with two soldiers and horses, at the same time to impact two seven inches of land. The long snake is divided into three sections, and when the head and tail cannot be commanded, and the snake body cannot be connected, this array can be cracked. However, when Chang'an was performing martial arts, I broke this method in one word, and the old prince rectified the one-word long snake array, so there was today's Beidou long snake array. And this year, during the Qingming Festival, I saw the old prince in Lanling again, and I learned that in the past, Ma Ming's guard Qin Yi used this method to almost break through the formation. It's just that at that time, Qin Yi's subordinates had no brave generals who could drag the snake's head and snake's tail guards, so that the old prince remedied it in time and strangled him. ”

Qin Yi? Su Dingfang and Luo Cheng glanced at each other, both of them knew who this person was, but they both thought that Xiao Zhuo didn't know, so they didn't say anything.

"And this Beidou Long Snake Formation ......" Xiao Zhuo left his seat and came to Su Dingfang's side, seeing Su Dingfang's previous statement to him, not only recorded it in words, but also drew a graphic to mark the formation arrangement. So he stretched out his hand to take the pen and ink, and drew six horizontal lines on the snake of the long snake on the paper, cutting the original long snake into seven sections. "Although this formation was changed to the Beidou Long Snake Formation, it also changed the original snake body to seven sections, so it was called Beidou. And each section of the joint is guarded by the Yang family Taibao, so that each section of the snake body can be separated from the body at any time and become self-contained, and its number will also be added due to the increase in commanders, so it is more flexible against the enemy. So if you hit another seven inches, it is likely to fall into the tiger's mouth. Brother Dingfang, how do you think this formation should be broken? ”

Su Dingfang pondered for a while, his fingers also caressed the Graphic Long Snake Formation with his thoughts, and the changes that Xiao Zhuo said were incorporated into his mind one by one, as if the drawing in front of him had become a real Big Dipper Long Snake Formation. "Since the formation has become flexible, if you want to prevent it from responding to each other, you need to cut off the connection between each other, and the best way to do this is to kill it with six people, and these six people must be enough, otherwise it will inevitably become an anti-dog, not to mention that it will not break the formation, but will be strangled by its own formation. But since the arranger dares to use this array, he must have an understanding of the number of men and horses on the besieged side, and in addition to the six soldiers and horses on the besieged side, there must be someone to contain the head and tail of the snake, if there are really so many soldiers and horses, why use this array again. ”

"In other words, my brother doesn't know how to break the formation?" Faced with Luo Cheng's question, Su Dingfang could only nod helplessly. The previous one-word long snake array, the strategy he thought of to break the formation coincided with Xiao Zhuo, but when the one-word long snake array became the Beidou long snake array, the original drawbacks were no longer there, and he couldn't think of how to crack it for a while.

"Naturally, there is a way. It's just too tricky, and it's normal for Brother Dingfang to think of it. Xiao Zhuo pulled Su Dingfang back to the wine table, took out another copper coin, and said, "Brother Dingfang, how do you think your marksmanship?" ”

"It's okay!" Su Dingfang replied.

"That's good. If you can hit this copper coin with your chopsticks, I'll tell you how to break the formation! After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, he flicked his fingers, and the copper coin was buzzed into the air. It was too late, it was fast, and I saw two chopsticks stabbing at the copper coin with lightning speed, impartially, and the thin ends of the two chopsticks were just against the eye of the money. And the owner of the two chopsticks, in addition to Su Dingfang, the other is naturally Luo Cheng.

"Good! If the two of you go to break the formation, the old prince's reputation will inevitably be ruined! Hearing Xiao Zhuo's words, Su Dingfang just smiled and looked at Luo Cheng again. Originally, he was still not sure that Luo Cheng would go to solve the Wagang crisis, but in the scene just now, he was already eight points sure that Luo Cheng would definitely go.

"Brother Dingfang, in fact, whether it is the one-word long snake formation or the Beidou long snake formation, there is one of the most serious shortcomings, but this shortcoming, it is big and big, and it is small and small, I also found it when I was in Lanling when I heard the old prince put the long snake certificate again, but because of the harsh conditions for breaking the formation, I didn't say it to the old prince."

"How harsh?" Su Dingfang's interest in how to break the formation at this time was obviously higher than Luo Cheng.

"The little marquis said before that in the snake array, it is difficult to use long weapons that are good at skills, but in fact, it is not. Although the One Word Long Snake Formation was changed to the Beidou Long Snake Formation, it only changed its way of dealing with the enemy, and its armor did not improve, especially the shield soldiers. Throughout the ages, the shield has evolved to cover only the part from the thigh to the chest, but the lower leg is gradually neglected for the convenience of movement. Imagine what would happen if two men with excellent marksmanship relied on each other and rushed into the formation, wounding the shield soldier on the inside and not killing him, but only stabbing him in the ankle? ”

"The stalk is in the throat, the thorn is in the back, it is flawless to pull out, and it hurts!" Su Dingfang suddenly realized: "If this is the case, there is no need for six-way soldiers and horses, only two soldiers and horses need to block the support of the head and tail, and the gun-wielding general only needs to create more wounded soldiers in the belly of the snake, and the entire formation will affect the overall operation from the inside, and the most dangerous place will become the deadliest place!" ”

"That's right, if a soldier in the battle kills him, he will be an abandoned pawn, and he can make up for it before and after. But if you don't kill, the wounded soldiers are not only not conducive to the progress of the formation, but also become a drag like a thorn on the back, and as there are more and more thorns, the formation will become more and more difficult to operate. It's just that if you want to enter the snake belly breaking formation, as I said before, these two people must not only have excellent marksmanship, but also be able to resist the edge of the snake's two fangs. Although the old prince is over seventy years old, I'm afraid it is not easy for ordinary people to get along, right? ”

"Not only the old prince, but also the old general Ding, he was also transferred!" Su Dingfang said casually, as if he was sighing at Lao Ji's resignation. But the speaker was unintentional and listened intentionally, but Luo Cheng was shocked when he listened. After listening to Xiao Zhuo's conversation with Su Dingfang before, he was already thinking about who to find to accompany him to break the formation. His cousin Qin Qiong? At this time, he was still besieged in Wagangzhai, and he was able to cooperate with the tacit understanding without any consultation, which was impossible! Wang Bodang? It's under consideration. But now that his stepfather Ding Yanping is gone again, this is tricky! Although Ding Yanping is nearly sixty years old, the two guns in his hands are a must, and among the generals in Beiping Mansion, there are no two people who can break his marksmanship except for his father Luo Yi. If Ding Yanping was transferred and stayed with Yang Lin again, he really didn't have the confidence to rush into the belly of the snake.

"Brother Xiao, since this array of shield soldiers is flawed, why not enlarge the shield to protect the soldiers' legs?" Now that he knew the way to crack it, Su Dingfang also tried to make remedial measures.

"Brother Dingfang, what do you want to do?" Xiao Zhuo looked at Su Dingfang's solemn expression, and felt that he should not ask casually. Sure enough, Su Dingfang immediately said, "Brother Xiao doesn't know, in the northwest two borders of Yanyun, there are often small units of Beihu cavalry, just now I heard Brother Xiao say that this formation can resist cavalry, I was thinking about whether I can make up for the defects of this formation and use it to resist the Beihu cavalry." ”

"It's not impossible. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Central Plains actually used more large shields, and at that time, the combat weapons were mainly bronze, and their sharpness was not as good as today. Later, with the improvement of iron smelting and forging, combat weapons also tended to be sharp and lightweight, and in comparison, the large shield became more and more bulky, and it was slowly changed to the current lighter shield. If Brother Dingfang wants to reuse the big shield, there are several problems that must be paid attention to. One is the burden on the soldier, the shield increases, the burden on the soldier increases, and at the same time, his combat and flexibility are reduced. And the second is lethality. If the shield is small, the soldier can hold a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, both offensive and defensive. However, if a large shield is used, it will be difficult for the other soldier to hold the blade, and the attack power of the formation will naturally decrease. Flexibility and lethality are both lost, so what's the point of this formation? ”

"What if you defend in place with a great shield? If the heavy knife hand is deployed behind the shield, but there are enemy horsemen rushing through the defense line, the blade is over, so that its men and horses are broken, how? ”

Who would have thought that Xiao Zhuo was silent for a long time after listening to it, not that he did not approve of Su Dingfang's proposal, but that he had already thought of what kind of scene it was. Everyone! If such a soldier appears on the battlefield, I am afraid that anyone will tremble! And its killing methods are as cruel as they have never been seen in ancient times!

Xiao Zhuo was silent, Su Dingfang waited, and Luo Cheng didn't know how to answer for a while, not to mention that he had something else on his mind, so he hurriedly resigned and left. In this regard, Su Dingfang did not stop him, because Su Dingfang knew that Luo Cheng could not find anyone who could fight side by side with him! Among those people Luo Cheng knew, if he said that his marksmanship was good, he believed that there were, but if he could defeat Yang Lin or Ding Yanping, he dared to say that there was absolutely none! And Luo Cheng must know this better than him.

"Brother Dingfang, since you want to add a knife hand, there are two more problems involved, the problem of the knife!" After thinking about it, Xiao Zhuo finally wanted to persuade Su Dingfang to dispel his thoughts. "To achieve the effect you said, first of all, the soldier must not be an ordinary soldier, must be one in a hundred, one in a thousand, or even one in a thousand, and its wrist strength must be able to go down with a knife, planing the horse and dismantling people, otherwise the knife body is embedded in the body of the horse, and the blade will be broken, and the knife will be destroyed, and the defense line will be lost. Second, the blade of this knife must be long enough and sharp enough, and the minimum requirement is to cut the flesh and break the bones. And the longer the blade, the easier it is to break, so how to forge this kind of knife? What kind of material is forged from? This became the biggest problem. And as far as I know, I'm afraid I can't forge the kind of killing weapon you need! With the above four points, if there is really such a team of people, but it is only used to defend the border, don't you think it is too wasteful? ”

After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, his eyes stared at Su Dingfang, until Su Dingfang, who had been silent for a long time, showed a sad look on his face, and he finally heard a voice: "Hmm! ”

"It's really hard!" Su Dingfang scratched his head. He was bent on how to make up for the shortcomings of the formation, but he didn't expect that there would be so many problems involved. And it is true that as Xiao Zhuo said, if this kind of soldiers and horses are used to defend the border, it is indeed a great waste.

"Please continue!" After Su Dingfang gave a word, he took out a long big knife from the carriage and walked towards the general who surrounded him. And after hearing his words, his hands, which were originally a little trembling, slowly stopped shaking, and began to continue to stitch up the corpse for Dou Jiande.

"Su Dingfang, you dare to collect Dou Jiande's body, do you know what crime to be guilty of?" Tu Xianli asked angrily.

"The heroes compete for the deer, and the victor is the prince. Now that the King of Xia is dead, what evil deeds does he have? Not even allowed to enter the earth for peace? Is the Tang King, who is praised by the world, so open-minded? ”

"Bold! As Dou Jiande's remnant party, you are a key criminal in the imperial court, and you dare to slander the Tang King here and suffer death! "Who Su Dingfang is, Tu Xianli naturally knows, but it is precisely because he knows that he is in a hurry to act. Because killing Su Dingfang now is tantamount to helping him make a name for himself.
