The big battle began, and in addition to the cavalry confrontation, the infantry was also fighting, and the fighting was fierce. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Luo Zhaoyun had already laid out the Eight Locks Formation of the Golden Gate, which he learned from Li Jing's Codex of the Art of War, and he processed and transformed it according to his own thinking, the so-called "door" is the entrance to let the enemy enter the formation, and the formation can be artificially adjusted to let the enemy enter the formation.

The eight doors are divided into eight proposed passages of "rest, life, injury, Du, scenery, death, shock, and opening", which can be opened and closed.

The whole army was divided into nine phalanxes, each with a number, from one to nine, each with two thousand men, in addition, the cavalry was to be used as a surprise soldier, responsible for running outside and inside the formation, clearing reinforcements from outside, and charging the enemy troops who entered inside.

Luo Zhaoyun alone led a thousand personal soldiers not counted, and became the eye of the formation, commanding the whole formation.

At this time, the soldiers and horses on both wings had been killed, and the Sui troops on both sides immediately grouped together and set up a forest of guns and thick shields, so that the Northern Qi army could not attack, and could only pour into the gap inside, their idea was very simple, one was to insert into the formation, destroy the inside, and the other was to approach the Chinese army and capture and kill the commander of the Sui army.

But soon the Sui army array moved, and the original entrance was suddenly closely connected, revealing some gaps, and other Northern Qi troops continued to break into it through those gaps.

Some Northern Qi troops were worried about deception and attacked outside, but they obviously had no effective attack on the iron walls covered with thorns and heavy shields.

Moreover, the elite cavalry of the Sui army has already appeared as a surprise soldier, cutting back and forth vertically and horizontally, so that the Northern Qi army, which has not entered the formation outside, has completely lost contact with the soldiers and horses inside, and can no longer reinforce.

Puff puff!

At this time, the large array was shrinking, and the sharp edges of the spears, like mechanical gears, were squeezing the enemy, and rows of Northern Qi troops were stabbed, struggling there, to no avail, and were slowly swallowed up by the military formations in all directions.

The soldiers of Sui were all steaming with blood, like wolves and tigers, all of them were red-eyed, and more than 10,000 Northern Qi soldiers broke into the formation, and most of them were killed and injured in less than half of the incense, and the rest were difficult to live.

At this time, Gao Shengtan led his troops through the cavalry battle area, but after a moment's slowdown, he didn't expect to lose eight or nine thousand men and horses, and the side was cut off by the sudden cavalry.

Gao Qinglan rushed over and said: "King Qi, this is an ancient military formation, which evolved from gossip, and was very famous in the late Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao and Kong Ming used it. ”

"Do you know how to crack it?"

Gao Qinglan shook his head: "There is a record of the method of cracking in this military book, but Luo Cheng's formation has changed a lot, and it is no longer exactly the Eight Locks Formation of the Golden Gate, and I don't know how to break the law?" ”

Gao Shengtan said: "But if the formation allows you to enter, it must be a fraud, blocking the dead road, maybe it is the door of life, then break through, open the way with cavalry, and go all the way, don't pay attention to his formation changes, let alone let him lead the nose, and never get rid of the influence of the formation." ”

"What the King of Qi said is very true, please give the order to attack!" A general, Hu Yanxing, rode over with a long knife in his hand, and he couldn't bear to attack.

Gao Shengtan looked up at the Sui army's formation as stable as a mountain, and his face became more and more gloomy: "Spread the word, death battle order!" ”

As soon as his voice fell, he heard the commander of the Chinese army, Sima shouting: "The golden drum and horn are ringing in unison!" Fight to the death! ”

The cowhide drums and gongs and trombones on the chariots of the army rumbled and roared together, and they began to attack.

This is the most superficial way to break the formation, and it is destined to pay a heavy price, but Gao Shengtan and the others cannot break the formation, so they can only destroy it in the simplest way.

"Kill—"

The Sui army began to change its position, spears, spears, thick shields, and heavy armor gathered in the past, forming a series of copper walls and iron walls, towering like mountains, and the three-dimensional defense was like a meat grinder, and the enemy soldiers who rushed up were destined to be strangled.

A crazy bloody battle was staged, and the soldiers on both sides were engaged in the battle, roaring bursts of voices, and at the end someone shouted dumbly, and could only swing their swords and spears like mutes and slash fiercely.

Whether it was a phalanx of cavalry or infantry, they were all killed in the dark, and blood penetrated their armor.

"Luo Cheng, come out and fight!" Gao Shengtan held a heavy pure iron horse lance and shouted in front of the military formation.

At this time, Luo Zhaoyun watched from the formation, and said to Fan Dongyin, He Ruohuaikuo and others beside him: "Count the two thousand Chinese troops and go out of the battle with me." ”

"General, aren't we waiting for all the rebels to enter the battle?"

"They have suffered a big loss, and they are already unwilling to continue to break into the formation, at present, the eight locks of the Golden Gate have been basically locked, leaving only two or three doors for the rebels to charge, forming a fixed defensive array, which does not need too much command, it is enough to be impregnable, support for a long time, and let the rebels pay a heavy price, I will go out and capture the enemy general, lest he run away."

The generals and lieutenants around them were all excited when they heard this military order, and listened to the commander's meaning, the overall situation has been decided, and now they are going to capture and kill the leader of the rebels.

"The herald, the cavalry at the northwest, southeast, and north entrances will increase their troops one after another at a moment's notice!"

"Yes!" A messenger began to time, every few moments, blowing a horn, so that a thousand cavalry from the outer mountain pass, rushing in, billowing smoke and dust, fueling the momentum, so that the Northern Qi army, which was caught in a fierce battle, saw that the Sui army's reinforcements had arrived, and they became more and more impatient, and the army's spirit was fluctuating, and they all felt that they were about to fail.

This mentality made the morale of the Northern Qi army become low, and there was even an ominous premonition of defeat.

"Kill with Ben Shuai!" Luo Cheng untied the red robe, revealing the white armor inside, the chain battle armor, emitting white mangs, the silver helmet on his head, holding the Five Tiger Soul Breaking Spear, a horse dragon horse under his crotch, shouting, and riding the horse at a gallop.

Around him were eighteen Yanyun horses, followed by two thousand elite Yanjia horses, people like tigers, horses like dragons, morale was up, and a wave of charges surged up.

"Bang Bang!"

The armor and weapons collided first, followed by screams and the sound of spears piercing into the flesh and bones, and Luo Zhaoyun personally led the troops to kill.

"Just in time!" Gao Shengtan boasted of his superb martial arts, and he was proficient in martial arts skills, plus some martial arts handed down by the Gao family, on the whole, he felt that it would be okay to kill Luo Cheng.

Luo Zhaoyun also saw Gao Shengtan wearing a golden mask under Da Xu, sneered, and led the army straight over.

The two commanders met in a narrow way and developed their own superb skills, both of which wanted to put each other to death.

"When—"

The two of them had infinite strength, and they also used internal strength, and the weapons were heavy and pure iron, and they collided together, and the sound of piercing stones and cracking gold resounded, shaking all the surrounding soldiers with a tingling pain in their eardrums.

Gao Shengtan's arms were numb, and he was about to crack, and he was secretly horrified, thinking that this Luo Cheng was worthy of his reputation, his arm strength was so big, and he also knew how to use internal strength.

Although he had heard of Luo Chengwei's name, he didn't think about it, he felt that it was a false rumor, a large element of fiction and exaggeration, Gao Shengtan studied martial arts in the Wu Temple for ten years, and made a lot of hard work, and felt that there should be few people in the world who could reach him, what Yuwen Chengdu, Zhang Xutuo, and Luo Cheng's generation may not be as powerful as him.

With this kind of self-deceptive thought, he has always boasted of being excellent in martial arts, but in fact, he has only practiced to the level of resonance of all organs, and he feels that he is a rare master in the world.

Luo Cheng held a silver gun in his hand and unfolded exquisite marksmanship, which made the magic superb, the shadow of the gun flying, virtual and real, and stabbed at the opponent's vital point.

Gao Shengtan resisted more and more difficult, and used all his strength, and several stunts of other mountain temples in Shaolin were powerless to reverse the defeat.

"Poof!"

In the thirtieth round, Luo Cheng stabbed Gao Shengtan in the right chest with a shot, poked out a blood hole, and directly picked him off the horse, seriously injured and spurted blood.
