Chapter 203: Out of control
The Sui army that entered it was like meat in a meat grinder, and they were mercilessly killed.
After three rounds of tentative attacks, the Sui army suffered as many as 5,000 casualties.
All the generals have heard of the battle of winning more with less, but the weaker side has definitely not taken advantage of the strong side like this.
In the third stage, the enemy does not attack, Xia Yu takes the initiative to let one team attack, and the other seven teams either attract the enemy's attention or harass them.
The ancient battle formation or a long snake with one word, or a phalanx, the form is extremely single, unlike the eight formations such as the changeless, it seems to be not a formation, but in fact, the law is strict, everywhere makes the enemy unable to defend.
Qu Tutong went out of the Guard's Mansion to see how he could destroy this Li family's army, but he was surprised that his side was constantly being eaten away, and the enemy was still alive and well.
The more they fought, the more confident they became, and the eight formations had reached the fourth stage, combining the army in one place, using an offensive formation of cavalry on the left, spearmen in the center, and sword soldiers on the right, and charging the enemy.
The so-called Eight Formations does not have the power of gods and ghosts as in the legend, but is actually a battle formation that Zhuge Liang has studied and researched by studying the ancient art of war. This battle contains his wisdom beyond the ordinary.
With the help of the Eight Formations, the advance of the Sui army was like a rout tide, and it couldn't stop retreating backwards, out of control.
Fan Ming and the others were unwilling to admit their defeat, and the battlefield form was reversed in an instant.
Although the two of them had experienced a hundred battles, the sudden change in the battlefield still caught them off guard, and in a daze, the enemy had torn their formation to the point that it was difficult to organize an effective attack.
"Retreat, retreat!"
Fan Ming immediately made a decision and ordered the army to retreat.
"Where to go?!" Hengli killed Li Jing in front of him, and Changma Lance locked Hengjiang with an iron move, cutting Fan Ming into two sections.
Wen He was intercepted by the three generals and was also beheaded under the horse.
The Sui army was by no means a rabble, and in the face of such a situation, it was still able to form a formation and retreat towards Xianren Pass in an orderly manner.
The 50,000 Sui army lost nearly half, which was an unprecedented defeat.
Because of this battle, Xia Yu's reputation spread throughout the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
After the army was collected, corpses were strewn all over the place. When the battlefield was cleaned, blood seeped into the ground up to three inches thick.
After this battle, Qu Tutong's military superiority was completely lost.
"Xia Yu, what kind of battle formation did you use just now, why have I never seen it." Li Jingxing rushed to the tunnel.
To solve the crisis of Li Jiajun, everyone followed each other to Li Jiajun's camp.
It was very lively along the way, and everyone was talking about the battle with great interest, which was really exciting.
As soon as he came halfway up the mountain, a healthy horse rushed towards Xia Yu: "Xia Yu'er, you give me death!" ”
"Li Jiancheng, what are you doing?"
Everyone stood in the middle of them, and Li Jiancheng sneered: "Xia Yu, you still have the face to come back, if it weren't for you, how could our army fail and be surrounded?" ”
They were fighting on the front line, and the Li Jiajun did not break through to support and contain the enemy, which is very strange. Thinking of the problem of the inner ghost, Xia guessed what was going on.
"Hua Qing'er and Mulan, where are the two of them now?"
When Xia Yu went to support Jinyang City, he let the two of them temporarily stay in the Li Jiajun camp, probably because Hua Qing'er colluded with Qu Tutong for revenge.
When Li Shimin asked Xia Yu this sentence, he immediately understood the truth of the matter, and secretly said that Hua Qing'er was really the master who did not make people worry.
"The two of them have already been chopped up by us!" Li Jiancheng looked at the airway.
Xia Yu didn't believe that this was true, and smiled: "Li Jiancheng, if you have this ability, you won't come to me to ask for guilt." ”
When Su Xun heard that Hua Mulan was killed, he was about to have a seizure, and when he heard Xia Yu's analysis, he forcibly pressed the anger in his heart, and said angrily: "It wasn't you who did the evil at the beginning, you had to slaughter Hua Qing'er's village, where could there be so many things?" ”
Li Jiancheng was furious: "Su Xun, do you really think I'm afraid of you?" ”
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight halfway up the mountain, another team of people came down the mountain, led by Li Yuan.
Li Yuan shouted: "Built, don't make trouble, if it weren't for Xia Yu, our Li family army would be wiped out." Let's go to the mountains and talk together! ”
Everyone went up the mountain, the military academy came to report, and Sun Simiao came.
Li Yuanfu personally took Sun Simiao to the mountain.
After sitting down, Sun Simiao said, "I'm here to find Xia Yu, and I need his help with some things." ”
Xia Yu and Sun Simiao came to another tent, and Sun Simiao said, "Qing'er, she came to look for me." ”
"Oh?" Xia Yu poured him a cup of tea.
She said that it was her fault and that she misunderstood you. He also stayed in the mountains for a day with another girl, cleaning the house for me and cooking for me. I panicked, she suddenly did this to me, I always felt that something was wrong. That's where you come in. ”
Xia Yu touched the Seven Peerless Tripods in her arms, Hua Qing'er did that in order to repay Sun Simiao for his kindness, and then went to Jiang's house to apologize.
The girl who walks with her must be Mulan.
"The divine doctor doesn't need to panic, I think it's Qing'er who knows his mistake and can't regret it, so he apologizes to you. I'm going to get her back. ”
After comforting Sun Simiao, the other party was suspicious, Xia Yu said: "If the divine doctor lives here for seven days first, I will bring Qing'er back to meet you." ”
Sun Simiao said gratefully: "The apprentice has bothered you, and when she comes back, I will definitely punish her severely." ”
Xia Yu quipped: "When Qing'er comes back, it's too late for you to love, and then you won't be willing to beat her." ”
Rare, Sun Simiao's old face was flushed.
Qu Tutong was defeated and suffered heavy losses, the city wall of Xianren Pass was old, and it was difficult to defend, so he simply led people to retreat and retreat to Lonely Leaf City.
Xia Yu explained to Li Shimin and went to Jiang's house alone.
Three days later, according to the route left to him by the three elders, he entered Huanglu Mountain.
Legend has it that here was the place where the Yellow Emperor's alchemy soared, from a distance, it looks like a huge Dan furnace, with three stone pillars about ten zhang thick, supporting a huge hemispherical mountain.
A few lone birds fly around the stone pillars, and the white clouds are like jade belts on the mountainside, which is inaccessible here, like a fairyland.
Coming to the foot of Huanglu Mountain, Xia Yu was attracted by the beautiful scenery and unconsciously let out a long howl.
"Who is coming, who dares to break into our Jiang family's territory?"
A big man appeared and looked at Xia Yu coldly.
Xia Yu explained his intentions, and the big man's face was gloomy: "You are Xia Yu who injured the three elders of our Jiang family?" ”
Xia Yu smiled awkwardly.
"Let's go." As soon as the big man turned around, he led Xia Yu to the bottom of a stone pillar, which stood upright into the sky, about fifty meters high.
The big man grabbed the vines growing on the stone wall, jumped up, and deliberately considered Xia Yu's skills.
Although the big man weighs and looks inconvenient, he is actually very good at light body kung fu, grasping the vines like an ape, and in the blink of an eye, he climbed to a position nearly ten meters high.
