Chapter 508: Mo Dao Army Formation

Previous Chapter

"The sword is the gentleman of weapons, and the sword is the king of a hundred soldiers. A gentleman can be bullied, but no one dares to insult the king. ”

Since the tribal period, in order to fight with beasts and enemies, the ancients at that time cut wood and bamboo for weapons, and then, after countless years of development, all kinds of weapons emerged in endlessly, to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the sword, finally became the mainstream weapon, but unfortunately, although the sword is sharp, but not enough for war, although in the next hundreds of years, countless people want to turn the sword into a sharp weapon to dominate the battlefield, but the congenital weakness, resulting in this idea all in vain.

In this way, the knife suitable for the battlefield finally appeared on the battlefield of fighting, because it stood on the chopping and slashing, and could develop into various forms according to the development of the situation.

In the Tang Dynasty, the development of knives finally ushered in a golden age.

According to the "Tang Liudian" volume 16 contains: "There are four types of knives: one is called the Yi knife, the second is the obstacle knife, the third is the horizontal knife, and the fourth is the Mo knife..." ’

And among them, the most popular and the most mysterious is the Mo knife.

The reason why Modao is recorded by people, in addition to the fact that there is no record in later generations, is his role, and his birth is to deal with the cavalry.

According to the records, the Mo knife is about seven feet long, weighs about fifteen catties, according to the current calculation, at least two meters long, nearly twenty-five catties or so, the situation is slightly different according to the different roles, there are narrow blades, the back is heavy, it is to deal with cavalry, there is a similar three-pointed two-edged knife style, no matter what style, to deal with cavalry or ordinary soldiers, a knife to cut down, often can be knights and war horses divided into two, it can be seen that it is sharp.

Many famous generals in the Wu Zetian period, such as Cheng Wuting and Pei Xingjian, were all good at using the Modao military formation.

It is precisely with the gradual systematization and regularization of the Modao military formation of the Tang Dynasty that it was ensured that after the Tang Dynasty, although the Tang Dynasty was in internal chaos, the festival made each go its own way, and the land for raising horses was lost, it still maintained the suppression of the surrounding alien races.

"Mo Dao Array."

When these three words were spoken, Duan Jian's heart was full of shock and expectation.

In later generations, as a person who likes history, he admires all kinds of magical things in history, and Modao, which is full of legends, is his favorite, but unfortunately, because there is no solid evidence, he can only keep Modao in his thoughts.

After arriving in the Tang Dynasty, he also saw the Mo knife, but unfortunately, what he saw was just a dead thing on the weapon rack, and at that time he knew that what he really wanted to see was not the Mo knife, but the Mo knife army array that was held in the hands of many Tang soldiers on the battlefield and killed the enemy with a river of blood.

Once, Duan Jian thought that this dream was very far away from him, but he didn't expect that so soon, this dream was about to come true, how could he not feel excited and looking forward to it.

"Hahaha, yes, the Modao Army Formation, this time outside the North Pass, I have already thought that there must be a few bloody battles between me and the Turks, and to deal with these people of different races, this Modao Army Formation should be the first artifact, how can I give up this artifact and not use it, there are these three thousand Mo swordsmen, I must kill the enemy chief today, and raise the prestige of my Tang Army." Blacktooth laughed.

"Boom, boom, boom.........."

Compared with the Modao army formation that stood silently in front, holding high like a forest, with an indifferent expression and no movement, the remaining remnants of the Turkic army who had just broken through the Tang Army and the Khitan cavalry were in high morale at this time, after all, seeing the hope of escape, who would have reservations. Therefore, their forward horses not only did not hesitate in the slightest, but became faster.

"Rush, rush back, in order to survive, fight a bloody way."

Ashina raised his scimitar and shouted hysterically.

Five hundred steps, four hundred steps,........

"Raise the knife"

When the Turkic army broke into within three hundred zhang, a cold and extremely crisp sound appeared in the Mo Dao array.

"Brush ....."

There was a sound of armor and armor, and long knives shining with cold light were erected, and even though the sun was hot at noon, it was still like being in an ice cellar, making people feel a biting chill.

If it is a veteran of the battlefield, he will know that this chill is not the cold of winter, but a kind of spiritual oppression, and it is a fearless killing intent.

Although the Modao army formation is an invincible and powerful army on the battlefield, it is also a military branch with the largest casualties, after all, they are not facing the same tribe as themselves, but a cavalry team with the help of horsepower, therefore, many times when the soldiers of the Modao army are killed by a knife, they are likely to face the enemy's desperate blow, even if they do not die, there is a great chance of being seriously injured.

Therefore, every soldier who can become a Mo Dao hand must not only be burly and powerful like an ox, but also have a heart that is not afraid of death, and it is this extremely cruel requirement that will make the Mo Dao army array at a rare level for a while.

"Spread Out"

With another order, the Modao military formation, which had been a little crowded before, immediately opened up the distance, and a team of soldiers was separated by half a body, and the front and back were separated by two feet.

After this change, the Modao military formation soon became a dense net, each soldier is a node, although it looks loose, but it is extremely clever to protect all the soldiers from the front and back, left and right, no matter where the enemy attacks, he has to face the attack of at least three soldiers.

With such a military formation and the sharp and powerful Mo Dao in the hands of every soldier, it is no wonder that every time the Mo Dao military formation appears, his enemy will not be able to defeat the army.

It's slow to say, but it's actually an action that has been done in the blink of an eye.

Driven by the Turkic soldiers, in just three hundred steps, a few breaths, they were in front of the Modao Formation.

"Well, ......"

In the face of that long knife like a forest, not all Turks are not afraid of life and death, so when they were about to collide with the Modao military formation, some Turkic soldiers finally became timid and hesitated, and they wanted to stop the war horses under their crotches to avoid colliding with such a terrible military formation.

Unfortunately, not all Turkic soldiers will be afraid, many Turkic soldiers don't know whether they are really fearless or unable to stop their horses, so they drive their horses and rush towards the Modao army without hesitation.

"Kill.... Kill, kill"

A burst of shouts, like the thunder of summer, suddenly burst out from the mouths of the Mo Dao soldiers, followed by their raised Mo Dao.

"Click, click......."

Blood was like a fountain, instantly thrown in the air, in the blink of an eye, it became a sea of blood, the sky, the ground, the corpses, everywhere was bright red, and all the living people and war horses were also full of blood, but there was still a hint of sweetness.

The forest-like Mo knife was neatly wielded, like a harvester that was now harvesting wheat, clicking, clicking, splitting all the Turkic soldiers who rushed in front of them, whether they were men or war horses, one after another.

"Ah.........h

This tragic situation, in an instant, stunned everyone, especially the Turkic soldiers who followed behind and continued to rush forward, looking at this scene like hell on earth, they no longer had the idea of continuing to rush forward.

There was only one thought in everyone's mind, 'Who the hell is this, why are they here, they are not evil spirits who crawled out of hell, what is it in their hands, it is not a man-eating magic weapon, why is it so powerful?' ’

The Turkic army, which once roamed the steppe and never knew what to fear, finally had fear at this moment, in front of the bloody and cruel scene brought to them by the Modao army array.

They have always thought that cavalry is an invincible army in the world, and for the first time, they know that there is still a military formation in this world that can kill them like chickens and dogs.

"Impossible, this is impossible, how can the Han people be so powerful, how can they have such a strong military formation, this must be an illusion, this must not be true, not true."

Ashina Gu Duolu also seemed much calmer than ordinary Turkic soldiers, but at this moment, he couldn't believe that all this in front of him was real, and the powerful Turkic army that had followed himself and was invincible and invincible was actually killed so easily, and the death was still so miserable.

"Okay, Mo Dao Army, worthy of being the first in the world, it's really amazing, it's great."

Compared with the scene of the Turks, Duan Jian is like drinking a bowl of iced sour plum soup in the summer, and the sour end is indescribable.

"Wait a minute, the real show is still to come, let's watch slowly."

Hearing Duan Jian's praise, the black tooth Changzhi touched the beard on the side of his mouth, then turned his head and said to the people around him, "Come on, order the Modao army to break through and completely crush the enemy formation, today, even a Turk can't escape." ”

"No"

As soon as Hei Fang Chang gave the order, he saw someone waving a flag not far away and shaking it.

"Assault ......."

After receiving the order of the black tooth Changzhi, the cold voice sounded again in the Modao army array, and when he heard this sound, the Modao army array was like a fierce beast that had been awakened, and finally opened its fangs that made all the population fearful, and began to devour all the flesh and blood.

"Click, click......"

The moving Modao military formation, like a harvester that was launched, was constantly accompanied by a clicking sound, attacking forward, no matter whether it was a war horse or a Turkic soldier in front, under their constantly waving Modao, they were like a chicken and a dog, and they were cut to pieces.

"Devils, devils, they are devils, I don't want to fight, I don't want to fight, I want to go back, I want to go home."

A Turkic boy with immaturity on his face, in the face of this cruel situation, finally could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, threw down the scimitar in his hand, and roared with fear on his face.

Then, he didn't dare to face the Modao army formation, and wanted to drive the war horse to run back, at this time, he had forgotten that there were countless Khitan people chasing and killing them behind him, even if he escaped, it was difficult to escape death, but unfortunately, he hadn't run far yet, and when the cold light flashed, his shouting stopped, because his head was no longer on his neck.

"Mess with our army's heart, this is the end, thousands of Han dogs, actually let me tens of thousands of Turkic warriors, so cowardly, Ben Khan is really ashamed of you, if you are still a brave and fearless Turkic warrior, or the warrior who is rampant in the steppe, follow me and kill all the Han people, do you dare?"

Holding aloft the scimitar that was constantly dripping with blood, Ashina Bone Dolu looked at the terrified Turkic soldiers around him with cold eyes.

It's a pity that what makes Ashina Guduolu feel sad is that the Turkic soldiers who once responded to his call were silent at this time, and even many people looked at Ashina Guduolu with a little hesitation and doubt in their eyes.

"How could this be, how could it be like this."

Looking at these extremely familiar faces but unfamiliar expressions, Ashina's heart gradually became cold, he didn't understand, not long ago, morale was like a rainbow, as if no matter what difficulties and challenges the Turkic soldiers could become so cowardly, when did this happen, from his repeated attacks on Lushan City to no avail, or after Ashid Yuanzhen died in battle.

Thinking about it, he didn't figure it out, but he knew that the current Turkic soldiers were no longer the invincible warrior army that dared to fight even in the face of gods and Buddhas, and now they have been defeated by successive defeats, a gloomy future, and hunger, they now have no original faith, they just want to live now, whether as slaves or other things, as long as they can live, they can abandon everything, even dignity.

"Hahaha, hahahaha, an empty, an empty, decades of hard work, countless people of my Ashina family have died in battle, but I didn't expect that in the end it was still empty, in this case, why should I Ashina Bone Dolu live in the world, it's better to go back, it's better to go back!"

After looking up to the sky with a wry smile, Ashina Gu Duolu raised his eyes, no longer looked at the people in front of him, and fiercely added the belly of the horse, and drove the war horse towards the approaching Modao army formation.

Looking at Ashina Guduolu, who looked at death as if he were at home, a murderous aura permeated the Turkic army.

"Great Khan, wait until your subordinates, and we will follow the Great Khan to the death."

After many years of great sweat and self-made, Ashina Gu Duolu is certainly not without henchmen, seeing that Ashina Gu Duolu is leaving with the heart of death, some loyal and brave people also go with him.

Although in many cases, the spirit can play a very final role, but when the actual situation is too different, it is difficult for the spirit to change events.
