Chapter 717: Tiandan Fire Bull Formation
"Uncle, really don't tell them about this?"
Looking at the closed tent door and the gloomy face of Uncle Zhongyong, Cao Teng's mouth opened slightly, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This matter is the top secret in the army!"
"The less one knows, the less danger of leaks. ”
"The three generations of the Zhang family's father and son have served in the army, and there are many friends and friends. If this plan is made public, I am afraid that the rumors will leak. ”
"If the Zhang family's traitors make preparations, not only will this strategy fall short, but even we may be ambushed. ”
Loyal and brave Uncle Yang Lin didn't think much about it when he heard Cao Teng ask like this, and said with a smile.
"Yes!"
"It's still the uncle's thoughtfulness!"
"It's better to be small!"
Seeing that Yang Lin's face was somewhat good-looking, Cao Teng suddenly stepped forward, gently kneaded Yang Lin's arm, and said with some flattery.
"This matter, in the camp, only you and I know!"
"Don't leak out!"
"This time, Ben Bo will definitely make the Zhang family father and son look good!"
Zhongyong Bo Yang Lin closed his eyes with some enjoyment, leaned his head on Cao Teng's chest, and said a little proudly.

North County Chengjun Palace
Dressed in a python robe, the whole body is full of indescribable majesty, King Chengjun is high on the throne, and his eyes are like eagles and falcons, staring at the huge sand table.
Dressed in a green robe, with a wooden hairpin on his head, he looked like a jade lotus root in a fairy who supported his chin with his white fingers, and his brows shrank slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
Several generals in armor were whispering something, and from time to time they stretched out their fingers and pointed at the sand table, sometimes disagreeing, and fierce quarrels would break out.
King Chengjun, who is at the top, did not stop it, but was happy to see it happen.
The Jade Lotus Dao people are even more involved in it, and they speak from time to time.
I don't know how long it took, but the quarreling generals finally reached an agreement, and the Jade Lotus Daoist whose eyes kept flashing also stopped thinking.
"Everyone!"
"But there's a resolution?"
Looking at everyone's reactions, King Chengjun's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of joy, and said with a smile.
"No!"
"No!"
Hearing King Chengjun's inquiry, both the generals and the Jade Lotus Dao people restrained their expressions and took half a step forward. Solemn answer.
"In that case... ”
"Everyone, hurry up!"
Seeing that everyone had made a decision, King Chengjun hurriedly straightened his waist, with a look of expectation on his face, and asked with a smile.
"Lord Wang!"
"Just now, the Daoist and the generals discussed!"
"Discuss together, refer to the opinions of all parties, and finally formulate a fire attack strategy!"
Seeing King Chengjun asking, the jade lotus Taoist in green clothes hurriedly took half a step forward and replied with a smile.
"Fire attack?"
"How?"
Hearing the explanation of the Jade Lotus Daoist, King Chengjun's eyes couldn't help but stagnate, and he asked with a little curiosity.
"I wonder if the prince has heard of the Fire Bull Formation?"
Hearing King Chengjun's inquiry, the Jade Lotus Daoist did not explain immediately, but glanced at the general in armor with a smile.
After the general got the jade lotus Daoist's gaze, a trace of gratitude couldn't help but appear on his face.
After getting the permission of King Chengjun again, he hurriedly walked out of the crowd, cleared his throat, and said excitedly:
"Fire Bull Formation?"
"Are you talking about the Middle Ages, the Tian family's fire ox array?"
Hearing the general's rhetorical question, King Chengjun's eyes couldn't help but rise a little unswervingly, but he didn't show it, and after thinking for a while, he asked in disbelief.
"The prince is wise!"
"It's indeed the Tian family's Fire Bull Array!"
The general saw that King Chengjun was very clear about this allusion, and the excitement on his face suddenly overflowed.
"In the Middle Ages, Tian Dan, the defender of Qi, was a resourceful man, and the coalition army surrounded the city of Qi to the ground, and the country was about to be destroyed. At this critical moment, Tian Dan had a plan, and he ordered his subordinates to gather all the cattle in the city and count them, a total of more than 1,000 heads. Then he ordered his soldiers to tie two sharp knives to the horns of the ox, and to drape the ox with colorful cloth, and to tie the tail of the ox with twine and reeds soaked with grease. Everything was ready, and dozens of holes were dug in the hidden places of the city wall overnight that could lead to the outside of the city, and 5,000 shrewd and strong soldiers were also selected, and they were also dressed as heavenly soldiers and generals. On this night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and Tiandan's fire bull array suddenly rushed out of the hole in the city wall, and the flames were blazing towards the enemy's camp. The coalition army was camping outside the city and was asleep, when they suddenly heard an earth-shattering sound of gongs and drums, shouting for killing. When he rushed out of the camp, he saw countless angry bulls with sharp knives burning at their tails, and they pounced like a furious tsunami. Behind the Fire Bull Array, in the background of thick smoke, there are many gods and gods dressed in red and green shouting and cheering. Seeing this situation, the coalition soldiers were already frightened, and they threw down their weapons and tents and fled. As a result, the army of Qi State won a great victory, which is the famous "Tiandan Big Swing Fire Bull Array" in history. ”
"You also want to set up a fire bull formation?"
Listening to the general's explanation, King Chengjun's eyes couldn't help shrinking, and he asked in disbelief.
"Although the Fire Bull Formation is famous... ”
"However, there are still many doubts. ”
Later generations also tried to follow the method recorded in Tian Dan, but when the bull was frightened, not only did not attack the enemy camp, but instead circled around, causing heavy casualties on his own. In the end, they all ended in failure. ”
"You don't know, do you?"
"This... ”
"This subordinate naturally knows!"
Hearing King Chengjun's words, a trace of embarrassment couldn't help but appear on the general's face.
However, as King Chengjun said, although the Fire Bull Array has a great reputation in history, its practical value is not too high.
It is precisely because of this incident that Tiandan has been criticized by later generations.
There are even doubts about his merits.
Some people even said that the Tian family's fire bull array had long been lost.
"Lord Wang!"
"That's just a rumor from outsiders!"
"The Tian family's fire bull array has not been lost... ”
Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, a young general wearing brass armor suddenly walked out of the crowd and muttered with some dissatisfaction.
"Oh!"
"The Fire Bull Formation has not been lost, listen to you... ”
"You know the Fire Bull Formation?"
Listening to the young general's dissatisfied muttering, King Chengjun not only did not get angry, but his eyes lit up like a light bulb, and he asked happily.
"A certain person was born in the Qidi Tian family!"
"Although I am not a descendant, I have not obtained all the true inheritance, but I know a few points!"
The general, who was wearing brass armor, heard King Cheng's question, did not dare to hide it, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee. He said in a solemn voice.
"What's your name?"
Listening to the affirmative answer, King Chengjun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked with excitement on his face.
"Tian Cuo!"
"The last general Tian Cuo, is the thirteenth grandson of Tian Dan... ”
Tian Cuo hurriedly bowed and said in a solemn voice.
