Chapter 19, The First Battle (3)
Two wolf swords, sticking out from the left and right sides of the shield, were waiting for the spears that pierced from both sides. I saw a few wolf spears raised upward, and immediately brought up many spears and stabbed them straight into the sky. At the same time, the two spears in the mandarin duck array stabbed out again in a row, and more than ten people fell down suddenly.
He Chang's spear was also pointed to the sky by the wolf, He Chang knew that it was not good, and he also knew that it was too late to withdraw the spear, so he threw away the spear in his hand and retreated sharply at the same time. At that moment, a spear with red tassels on the tip of the spear stabbed into his chest. He Chang shouted, his body flashed to the left, he stretched out his hand, grabbed the shaft of the spear, and with a force in his hand, he was about to snatch the spear. However, at this moment, he only felt a pain in his waist, and the strength in his body suddenly disappeared, and his body shook for a while, and he fell to the ground. Beside him, another rebel pikeman was retracting his blood-stained spear.
After this round of attacks, none of the pikemen in the three rows in front of the officers and soldiers could still stand. They were either dead, or they were lying on the ground, their hands covering their wounds, or they were screaming loudly or moaning quietly. And the living archers behind them, who had put away their bows and arrows, and were ready to pursue with swords and shields, were suddenly exposed in front of the mandarin duck array.
As the old saying goes: "An inch long, an inch strong." "Swords and shields are very inconvenient when fighting against arrays that include all kinds of long-handled weapons. The front of the mandarin duck array is a big shield, the big shield is held in both hands, and the one-handed shield collides, and the one-handed shield with a limited defensive range will definitely be knocked out of the gap, and the spear behind the big shield, the wolf or something can take advantage of this opportunity to give a fierce guy to the sword and shield soldier with a limited attack distance.
The archers with swords and shields were well aware of this, especially after the three rows of pikemen in front had been wiped out, but the process of eliminating the pikemen in the first three rows was so fast that they were a little slower in making the decision of whether to turn around and run. Then the big shield on the opposite side crashed into it......
……
"This ...... This...... This ......" Liu Jiexuan rubbed his eyes vigorously, a hundred enemy soldiers, in such an instant, were pushed by the fifty people under his own command, and less than half of them ran back? And on his side, not a single person died, and even the injured were wounded by the enemy's light arrows before the hand-to-hand combat began.
"It doesn't make sense! How can a war become like this? "Liu Jiexuan has not won battles, in the past few years of rebellion with Huang Zide, he has won many battles, more than one big victory, and even a big victory in the battle of beheading the general army of the imperial court. In contrast, a battle with dozens of casualties, whether won or lost, is really nothing. However, this is the first time that such an exchange ratio has been encountered.
"If all our soldiers will use mandarin duck formations, wouldn't it be ......" Liu Jiexuan shook his head and shook this ridiculous idea out of his head. All the soldiers use mandarin duck formations, how easy is this to say? In the Mandarin Duck Formation, the captain who uses the giant shield must be a strong man to use such a shield. And when necessary, he also needs to be able to use other weapons, even temporarily operating the giant shield with one hand and using the sword with the other. That's all, more importantly, he must be able to understand orders, and be able to follow orders, and command the entire team to complete various tactical actions. In addition, those two wolf warriors are also hard to find. Not to mention that he and Huang Zide are the imperial court, and now they can't get tens of thousands of soldiers who can use the mandarin duck array.
On the other side, He Dalong was also dumbfounded, he might not be able to rush down the first time, and he might be repulsed by others, which was also expected by him. But to be repulsed so quickly, no, it was not repulsed, but it was easily routed, and the casualties were terrifying. Fortunately, the enemy also seemed unprepared for such a quick victory, so much so that they did not even launch a pursuit. Otherwise, it may form a situation of inverted bead curtains.
"Fortunately, the thieves didn't chase after them." He Dalong wiped the cold sweat on his face and thought. He didn't know that Liu Jiexuan's soldiers had not practiced the Mandarin Duck Formation for a long time, and it was not a big problem to use this formation method in a defensive state, but if it was used to pursue, he was afraid that the queue would be chaotic immediately. At that time, if someone fights back, it may be a big joke.
"I really didn't expect this mandarin duck array to be so powerful! In the future, I will let the family members also practice this. He Dalong thought again.
At this time, Liu Jiexuan still let the soldiers occupy the pass and block He Dalong's march route. After beating the guy just now, He Dalong decided to try a new tactic.
"Kamo, Kamo!" He Dalong shouted.
He Mao was the same as He Chang's righteous son, and just now he watched He Chang being stabbed to the ground by the spears of the thieves not far away. At this time, when he heard He Dalong shouting his name, his face turned pale, but he immediately walked out and half-knelt down and hugged his fists and said, "Father!" ”
"The enemy army is very elite." He Dalong said with a calm face.
"Father, let the child rush again, the child will definitely be able to ......" He Mao said loudly.
He Dalong smiled and reached out and patted He Mao's shoulder, obviously very satisfied with his bravery.
"I don't need you to rush. Just now, because his father underestimated them, he asked Ah Chang to rush forward, but it hurt him. The enemy's position is quite strong, and it is not something that can be rushed casually. He Dalong pointed at the other soldiers and whispered, "Let them consume their strength first." You bring some archers and shoot arrows to support them...... Shoot two rounds first, let them charge, and when they are together, shoot two more rounds. ”
"Father, the child understands." He Mao nodded, then took the order and turned to go.
……
Somewhere high and deep but invisible, in the golden light and red neon, within the purple mist of Ruiqi, there is a faint palace. The whole body of this palace is made of turquoise glass, decorated with gold jewelry, the buildings are heavy, the courtyard is deep, and I don't know how many tens of millions of them have fallen. At this time, the main gate of this palace was wide open, and countless colorful auspicious clouds floated to this door, and I saw countless gods coming down from the auspicious clouds, stepping on the steps of the main gate on foot, and walking towards the palace like flowing water.
The width of this palace gate is only nine, but thousands of gods and spirits are running in, but it does not seem narrow. For a while, the immortals who participated in the meeting all entered the palace, and then the door of the nine-fold palace slowly closed, and then the entire palace disappeared in the ethereal nothingness.
This palace is the Mira Palace located in Daluotian. This is the palace of the Emperor of Heaven, who rules the heavens. At this time, the palace gate had been closed, and many immortals had gathered in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall in the center to pay homage to the Heavenly Emperor. These many gods, according to their karma, are in their place. They all shone with all kinds of light, from the outside to the inside, and the outermost circle was red, then golden, cyan, and purple. The crimson one is the most, and when it reaches golden, it is much less, and when it comes to cyan, there are only five left, and then up, on the highest throne, there is a god whose whole body is shrouded in a layer of pure purple qi, this is the Lord of the Heavenly Court, the Emperor of Heaven.
There have been many years since there has been a dynasty of gods like this, and generally speaking, everything in the world is checked by the relevant gods, and if there is a need to report to the emperor, the gods will also go to their own tables. Ordinary things are just that the Heavenly Emperor and several other emperors can issue an edict after a little discussion, and let the gods at the bottom obey it. Only when there is a real event that involves the safety of the entire Heavenly Court, will the Heavenly Emperor summon so many gods to the Miluo Palace. The last time Heavenly Court held such a court meeting was when Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty was there. After that great dynasty, immediately after that, Heavenly Court started an all-out war with the Tianzhu Brahman God Sect, and once wiped out the Brahman God Sect in Han Land. Speaking of which, when Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty was in the beginning, before Emperor Ming and Emperor Ming, Heavenly Court also held such a court meeting. Otherwise, without the acquiescence or even assistance of the Heavenly Court, how could a foreign god, even a god in his homeland, occupy an overwhelming position, and invade the dream of the Great Han Heavenly Son who was cared for by the gods when his luck was in full swing?
Seeing that all the gods had arrived, the Heavenly Emperor, who was sitting in the highest position, nodded slightly, and then a god with a blue and purple light shining on his body stood up from his seat. At the same time, a purple qi fell from the supreme throne on his body, making his image even more tall and majestic. As everyone knows, this also means that he is now appointed to preside over this court meeting.
The god spoke: "This time the Heavenly Emperor summoned us and the others, there is really a major matter related to the prosperity and decline of the Heavenly Court, and everyone must be summoned to this Lingxiao Treasure Hall to discuss this matter. ”
"What kind of important matter must be discussed in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace?" Almost all the gods, listening to the words of that god, couldn't help but think like this.
"At this meeting, we want to discuss things related to the Cross Religion." The god said.
"Is it the Cross Sect from Persia that Emperor Wuzong destroyed when he destroyed the Vatican Divine Sect, also known as the Jingjiao Sect? It didn't seem to be very good in Nestorianism back then, but what can they do now? A golden god asked.
"At that time, Nestorianism was actually just a branch of Western Cross Christianity, and it was a heresy that had long been punished. So there's not much support at all. Today's Cross Sect is the authentic Cross Sect, judging from the aura of their monks, their Yawei God, who is in pure purple, is not comparable to the Nestorian Sect that was punished back then, and it is not even comparable to the Brahman God of the year. Don't underestimate everyone. The purple deity admonished.
"Yahweh in pure purple?" This news surprised all the gods below, because this karmic position was no longer under the Heavenly Emperor. This was also the first time in so many years that Heavenly Court had faced such a powerful alien god.
"It seems that the previous means of dealing with the Brahma God may not be able to be used." Many gods think so.
"Recently, the monks of the Crucifixion, when translating their scriptures, translated Yahweh's name as 'God,'......" the deity added.
