Chapter 3 Under the City of Xinfeng

Waking up from the dream, the noisy sound came to his ears from the south of the city, Xu Ruyu woke up suddenly, turned over, put on his clothes and walked out.

A Jingwei was running towards him through the courtyard gate, and reported: "The enemy army is pressing towards the city, and the commander asked General Xu to go to the south gate tower to discuss matters?" ”

Xu Ruyu saw that the head had just risen, and the red light in the mist was not very dazzling, so he realized that he had not rested for less than an hour, and said secretly: Godfather found the enemy situation at the head of the patrol city early, and he was afraid that he did not go back to the room to rest after being separated from himself.

Xu Ruyu rushed to the south of the city neatly, met Zhang Zhongdao and several lieutenants under the south city, reached out to take off his helmet, and was dodged by him.

Zhang Zhongdao asked him, "What are you going to do?" Xu Ru foolishly saw that he didn't sneak attack him, and said angrily: "I'm like this, the enemy can recognize it even if it's far away." ”

Zhang Zhongdao smiled, took out a piece of green cloth, shook it in front of him and said, "I thought of it a long time ago, and I prepared it for you." Everyone laughed together, Xu Ruyu saw that they were so eager to come up with a way to play tricks on themselves, he couldn't help crying and laughing, and he didn't expect that several other people would not borrow his helmet, so he stretched out his hand to summon a sergeant under the doorway, and said, "Lend me your fur hat, and go to the armory to get another one." ”

The sergeant took off his double-layered cowhide hat and handed it to Xu Ruyu as he said, "Can I tell others that General Qingfeng wore my hat?" ”

Xu Ruyu looked at the admiration on his childish face, couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and didn't want to say a word of refusal, turned his head to climb the steps up the city tower, and threw the sergeant into the city gate cave and ignored it. Zhang Zhongdao followed up and asked him, "You don't seem to like people treating you like this?" ”

Xu Ruyu thought to himself: What is there to admire in the name of killing. took a breath, didn't say anything, and walked towards Chen Ang and the others.

Chen Ang turned around and saw Xu Ruyu coming and beckoned him to look out of the city together. In the distance, the Qingzhou army is slowly approaching Xinfeng in three ways, each wing is a Xuanjia elite horse, and in the middle is a huge infantry phalanx with a width of 1,000 steps.

Chen Ang said softly beside him: "It doesn't seem to be a feint. ”

Xu Ruyu nodded and said, "But you shouldn't attack it." ”

After the fall of Piling, Xinfeng City to protect the strategic position of the back of Biling was lost, Xinfeng City became a chicken rib, for Wanling, Qingzhou, Baishi tripartite, are not the ambition to win, last night Chen Ang and Xu Ruyu also said, Qingzhou, Baishi will not forcibly seize Xinfeng City, the purpose of the soldiers in Xinfeng, is nothing more than to contain the elite of Wanling here.

Now seeing the menacing appearance of the Qingzhou Army, Xu Ruyu and Chen Ang looked at each other, not knowing what Yi Hanwen wanted to do. When Xu Ruyu wanted to rebel against his father Wu Chu to evaluate the people of Qingzhou, he said: Only Yishide and Yihanwen of the Yi people in Qingzhou are worth seeing. Look at the situation in front of you, and look at him again.

Zhang Zhongdao was surprised: "Why does that ordinary phalanx give people such a strong sense of oppression? ”

Xu Ruyu saw that Fang Su's face was also solemn, and the rest of the people didn't understand why Zhang Zhongdao said such a thing, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: Zhongdao and Senior Brother Fang can sense the coercion of the phalanx in front of them just by the intuition of a master, which is really not simple.

Chen Ang said: "This will not be an ordinary phalanx, there are endless variations hidden in the ordinary, both offensive and defensive, and the killing machine is hidden behind it, and it seems to be hidden in it." Xu Ruyu saw that his godfather looked at him after speaking, his eyes were full of inquiry, and said: "This is the Five Elements Phalanx, and the godfather can see the killing machine or the middle or the rear without knowing this array, which is really very human." ”

Zhang Zhongdao said arrogantly: "Is it really that powerful? ”

Xu Ruyu explained: "The change of the five elements must start from Fang. The volume and the hidden one is a phalanx, a circle array, and the odd number is in the middle of the power; Shu and Zhang are curved, straight, sharp, and the odd number is behind the formation. ”

Fang Su said with a smile: "That Dayan number of formations have encountered an enemy. ”

Xu Ruyu said: "You can't generalize. The Great Derivation Technique is a military formation, and its advantage lies in the subtleties, using the perfect cooperation of the sergeants to gather combat power, and the narrower the terrain, the more conducive to play. The Five Elements Phalanx is a battle formation, and its advantage is in the big place, using the perfect mobilization of each department to entangle the opponent, and the more open and flat the terrain, the more conducive to play. After listening to Xu Ruyu's comments, everyone saw that he was silent and contemplative, and his expression was extremely solemn, and he was shocked, and he didn't know what to do.

Xu Ru was not worried about the situation in front of him, and his expression was solemn because the Five Elements Phalanx and the Heaven-Rushing Killing Array came out one after another.

Chen Ang stroked his shoulder and asked softly, "Do you think of the Soaring Killing Array?" Xu Ruyu looked at Chen Ang with a confused face and nodded slightly. Fang Su asked, "Are they all strange formations that shouldn't be born?" Xu Ruyu was silent, and his eyes were dazed. Chen Ang said: "You said that the Sky Killing Array is particularly flawed, but what about the Five Elements Phalanx in front of you? Xu Ruyu nodded, not understanding what he meant. Chen Ang said: "The Five Elements Phalanx, the Heavenly Formation and other descendants may have other side branches, and at some point, there will be an incomplete Great Yan Array. Xu Ruyu could understand what he meant that the array in front of him would not be from his father, and his heart suddenly became open-minded, thinking: Yes, the Five Elements Array was perfected by his father, and since it is not original, it is reasonable that others will be mutilated in the Five Elements Array.

Zhang Zhongdao listened to the words of the three of them, and was confused, but Chen Ang was on his side and did not dare to be presumptuous. Among the people in Wanling, he respects Uncle Lonely the most and fears Chen Ang the most.

Xu Ruyu saw that everyone in Xinfeng was looking at him worriedly, smiled lightly, and said: "Yi Hanwen wants to break the city with this formation, don't even think about it, now you need to prevent him from making another trick." Fang Su said: "The generals of Qingzhou are headed by him, but unfortunately he is not the eldest son, Yi Zhouwu does not dare to let him make more military exploits to threaten Yi Chongwu's status, otherwise Wanling would have faced him a long time ago." ”

At this time, the Qingzhou army had reached a thousand steps away. The large phalanx of foot soldiers was divided into two points, and there was a distance of more than 100 steps in the middle. Dozens of horse-repellent carriages were pushed out, lined up, and immediately more than 1,000 engineers hid behind the cars, digging piles and erecting piles, and everyone was shocked in their hearts: The Qingzhou army was not going to camp at such a close distance to confront Xinfeng. I saw that the Qingzhou sappers had finished repairing one place, and the giant array had moved to another place. In less than half a day, a neat camp has been standing a thousand steps away, facing Xinfeng City. Xu Ruyu saw that the Qingzhou camp had built six simple arrow towers in front of it, and said secretly: Yi Hanwen spared no effort to set up this suspicious soldier, what did he want to do.

Zhang Zhongdao watched it for a long time, and the root of his teeth was itching all the time, but Qingfeng Jingqi couldn't show up now, otherwise he would have asked to explore the truth and reality. Fang Su saw that it was too hard to consume it like this, and suggested to Chen Ang: "Why don't you send a team of people to explore the truth and truth?" Zhang Zhongdao was eager to try it when he heard this, and hurriedly shook it in front of Chen Ang's eyes, for fear that he would not notice him. Chen Ang took out an arrow and handed it to him, saying, "Don't be entangled. ”

A team of more than 500 guards marched out of the city and marched towards the Qingzhou camp. Qingzhou didn't seem to see the team of men and horses sent by Xinfengcheng, and after rejecting the carriage formation, the Qingzhou sappers did not stop, and the infantry cavalry did not make any moves.

Everyone in the city tower watched in surprise as Zhang Zhongdao led the team and slowly forced towards the Qingzhou camp, Xu Ruyu asked Fang Su on the side: "Zhongdao is five hundred steps away from the city?" Fang Su nodded, Xu Ruyu thought for a while, and said self-deprecatingly: "The straight road of the city gate can set up a boundary monument every hundred steps, and I don't need to ask people in the future." Everyone saw that General Qingfeng's sense of distance was the same as that of ordinary people, and they all thought in their hearts: General Chang Sheng is also inferior to himself, but they don't realize the subtlety of his advice.

Seeing everyone's reaction like this, Chen Ang sighed secretly, thinking: Ru Yu is not unique to Wanling, it is really a pity, and instructed Fang Su: "You quickly send Ru Yu's urgent letter to the Duwei Mansion, and order Wanling, Qichuan, and Pingyi cities to do it first." ”

Only then did everyone suddenly understand the subtlety, if the boundary monument could be erected, the soldiers at all levels would be able to use this as a reference to more accurately measure the range and give orders to fight.

Xu Ru's foolishness did not stop there, and continued: "If you can also set up monuments on the official road between the two cities, marking them at certain distances, it will be more convenient for people like me to go out of the city." "In fact, this idea is not the only one of you, the general Dayi heavy city out of the city gate often every other mile to build a pavilion, just ten miles away, and then go out with their own experience to estimate the distance. Everyone is a person who often travels far away, how can they not understand the subtlety of it, they all feel that he has a great mind and is really very accessible.

Xu Ruyu saw that the Qingzhou army had not moved, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he suggested to Chen Ang: "If you advance again, if you are entangled by the Qingzhou elite cavalry, it will be difficult to get out." ”

A person next to him replied: "These five hundred guards are newly recruited, even if they lose some, it is not a pity." Fang Su listened, and retorted in a stern voice: "If General Zhang has a loss, it's not a pity?" The man was silent, and he didn't know why Fang Su was so angry. Xu Ruyu knew that he was for the sake of his own heart, so he changed his normal behavior and reprimanded his subordinates in public. Xinfeng City was besieged, countless displaced people poured into the city, the source of guards will not be lacking, for the family of Xinfeng City, it is worth cherishing those veterans with rich combat experience, so the loss of recruits can be quickly replenished from the displaced people, sometimes deliberately put the recruits in danger, the weak and the strong, Wanling is also the case. For the children of the family who do not take the surname of the homeless people as a thing, saying the above words is not enough for Fang Su to reprimand him so harshly.

Chen Ang still heard Xu Ruyu's slight sigh, turned around and saw the extremely dim light in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, he only hated that although he was the head of the Chen clan and a peerless master, he couldn't change Wanling's vulgarity of despising the homeless people, and said in an indifferent tone: "Su'er, give the order to collect the troops." ”

The sound of gold sounded, and Zhang Zhongdao led the team back. At this moment, two teams of lightly armed cavalry spun out from the two wings of the Qingzhou array and outflanked the five hundred foot soldiers led by Zhang Zhongdao. At a distance of 300 paces from the city gate, the end was covered by enemy horsemen. Xu Ruyu saw that Zhang Zhongdao did not divide his troops and refused, but led five hundred foot soldiers, turned around and fought with the enemy cavalry, he was surprised, and when he looked at it, he couldn't help but be furious, ignoring Chen Ang's side, and asked sharply: "Who ordered the city gate to be closed?" ”

The man whispered to the side just now, "If you don't close the city gates, the enemy will rush into the city." ”

Xu Ru was so angry that his blood was surging, his face was pale, and without saying a word, he took out his long knife and turned over and jumped down from the wall, rushing towards the five hundred foot soldiers. Chen Ang stretched out his hand to stop him, but he paused and took it back, but he was afraid that if he stopped him, he would hate himself for the rest of his life, so he whipped at the man and shouted: "Two hundred enemies riding into the city can scare you out."

Five hundred foot soldiers were entangled by two hundred Qingzhou elite cavalry for a moment, and dozens of people fell, and they fell into panic for a while, there was no formation at all, only relying on human instinct to resist with the Qingzhou tiger and wolf division, only Zhang Zhongdao resisted one side, and the situation was slightly better.

Xu Ruyu shouted: "Form a prismatic array." Then he rushed into the Qingzhou army, and the sword light flew away, swinging the Qingzhou light cavalry a little. Seeing that the five hundred foot soldiers heard his words, but did not react, they knew that they were all new soldiers who were sent to the battlefield without a little training, and they hated it in their hearts, and hurriedly beckoned Zhang Zhongdao to each horn to resist nearly half of the enemy's attack, but the scope covered by the two was limited after all, and in the gap between the two, there were constantly people lying in pools of blood.

The five hundred foot soldiers knew Xu Ru's reputation and saw him come to the rescue regardless of his personal safety, and they were all shocked, and the previous dying frustration was swept away, and they were able to block the enemy horsemen.

Xu Ruyu saw that the city gate was slightly open, about three or four feet, so he led everyone to fight and retreat. The Qingzhou army recognized that the first two people in the 500 infantry formation were not trivial, and several teams of Xuanjia elite cavalry were outflanked by a total of 2,000 people in each of the two columns, and two columns of more than 5,000 people in the middle line infantry formation were also divided into two columns, and more than 5,000 people quickly rushed towards the battle group. The speed of the 500 foot soldiers was greatly slowed down by the light cavalry, and at the city gate they were finally entangled by 2,000 enemy cavalry.

The Xuanjia Jingqi and the light-armored Jingqi just now were like two points, and Xu Ruyu, who was on the side tail, suddenly felt the pressure in his hands, and believed that Zhang Zhongdao might not be much better than himself. It's just that the door is too small, and only a few people have to enter at a time. Fang Su shouted his name inside the city gate and told him to hurry in. Xu Ruyu didn't even turn around and look at it.

After a while, I felt that I had been suffering all day, and saw that there were few foot soldiers at the city gate, Liao Liao, and beckoned Zhang Zhongdao to approach the city gate, and was just about to enter the city, only to see a rain of arrows falling from the sky behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that there were more than ten people still trapped in the enemy formation, and the arrow rain on the city did not choose anyone to cover them together, and more than ten people were shot down by the rain of arrows in an instant, and they were busy shouting: "Zhongdao saves people." ”

Seeing Fang Su stretching out his hand inside the door, wanting to grab himself into the city, he raised his knife and slashed at his elbow, forcing him away, and a light column squeezed into the enemy formation with Zhang Zhongdao. When everyone in the city saw Xu Ruyu and Zhang Zhongdao returning to the enemy formation, they were all shocked, and they all called the longbowmen to stop. Xuanjia Jingqi saw Xu Ruyu and the two returning, regardless of more than ten foot soldiers, Tuan Tuan trapped the two in the middle.

Xu Ruyu saw that more than ten foot soldiers had entered the city, and the city gate was closed, looked at Zhang Zhongdao, and said, "You go up, you don't have to accompany me." ”

Zhang Zhongdao laughed three times and said, "You are still talking about hurting our brothers' feelings. Why not die with you in this city? ”

Xu Ruyu knew that he was now consuming a lot of money, and he could no longer jump to the city on his own, so the Xuanjia Elite Rider wrapped him and the two gradually left the city gate, so that everyone in the city had no way to start if they wanted to save it. Zhang Zhongdao could only rush back to the city gate alone and jump onto the city. Now seeing that he doesn't want to be alone, he doesn't say anything, he knows that it is difficult to escape the end of the battle, and he has no time to feel anything, so he excites Jingyuan with all his might, and he wields a sword in the sky, and rushes towards the enemy with Zhang Zhongdao. If Ping said that Chen Ang saw that his sword strength was so strong, he would definitely be unable to help but praise him again, but now he just wanted to excite the last trace of essence before he died.

It was the first time for me to personally see the power of the snowflake six out formation, and it was extraordinary under the play of Qingzhou's elite players. At this time, the Xuanjia elite cavalry surrounded the periphery to guard, and there were only dozens of elite experts left in the inner line to surround and kill Xu Ruyu and Zhang Zhongdao. More than ten giant qi rose up and covered themselves in the cold light in the sky, if it weren't for the fact that these Geshu were born from Biluojue, it would be difficult for Xu Ruyu to support for a while, even so, Xu Ruyu was also extremely difficult to resist, more than ten enemy horses The huge momentum made his body sluggish, and the play of Buyun's body method was greatly restricted, and his mind was raised to the realm of "five senses returning to the heart", only to feel that Dan Xi was like being taken out of the body and consumed sharply.

Gradually, a little emptiness grew in front of him, and the emptiness gradually grew larger, enveloping himself in it, knowing that the Dan breath was about to be exhausted, and his eyes were oppressed by the powerful momentum emanating from the enemy, and he could not see. The hollow sound in my ears gradually became louder, gradually masking all sounds. Is it just like that? I'm afraid so, I really can't struggle.

Suddenly, Xu Ruyu gave up his efforts to recognize the external appearance, closed the five senses from the inside out, and was about to give up resistance, his mind moved, and Knowledge actually caught the faint traces of several enemy stabs, Xu Ruyu thought that after the external vision was closed, the illusion of Knowledge was just pulled by instinct, and he waved the knife to tease the grid, and suddenly several huge forces came along the blade, and half of his body was sore. Xu Ruyu was not surprised or rejoiced, although he did not know why, but it is an indisputable fact that Knowledge of the "Five Senses Return to the Heart" can capture the external appearance. The five senses were not forced by the momentum of the enemy's horsemanship, although the body was stagnant, Xu Ruyu was much more relaxed than the situation just now, Suo slowed down, transported all the remaining Dan Xi to his arm, and slowly leaned towards the city wall.

Zhang Zhongdao saw Xu Ruyu's hand slow down for the first time, and he felt uncomfortable and wanted to cry out, and he was unaware of being ridden by the enemy horse for a while, and was stabbed under the left rib, and a line of blood arrows was provoked, and he was unwilling to seal the wound, and was ready to kill a few more people. Now I see that Xu Ruyu's body is almost stagnant, but the long knife is like a spiritual sense, as long as the enemy attacks, it will slash through a dazzling rainbow, and the strange hit on the tip of the Yi, swinging the enemy away, ten long ges stabbed all over the sky, but none of them could hit Xu Ruyu. The long knife in Xu Ruyu's hand waved like a giant mang, and only a master of Zhang Zhongdao and above could see that Xu Ruyu's every move was the last to come, and there was no false move at all. The reason why it danced into a giant mang, it was actually because the enemy attacked too intensively.

Calling him and not seeing him answer, although Zhang Zhongdao didn't know why, but seeing that he was gradually pressing towards the city tower, his spirit couldn't help but perk, and the heart that was determined to die just now no longer existed, and the halberd was powerful, and the offensive around Xu Ruyu was also taken away.

Everyone in the city tower was dead at the beginning, but now seeing them gradually coming back, they couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope, and when he forced back to within 400 steps, they all took out a special giant bow together, and shot at the enemy cavalry with a strong Dan Xi, and divided most of the enemy cavalry offensive for Xu Ruyu and Zhang Zhongdao. Now Qingzhou Xuanjia Jingqi has not dared to force the city, if that is the case, Xinfeng Chengtou will definitely rain arrows without worrying about hurting Xu and Zhang. There are only more than 30 elite masters, who are not afraid of ordinary arrows and stones, vowing to annihilate Xu and Zhang under Xinfeng City and entangle them, but the rest of the Qingzhou army does not dare to approach the city, and they are all in formation 400 steps away and waiting for an opportunity to move.

More than 30 people were divided into two groups, and it was difficult to distinguish between them under the city, and everyone in the city was worried, and Chen Ang was also so anxious that he couldn't do it, so he made up his mind in his heart, pulled out a shocking giant gun, and said secretly: You are foolish, you can ask for more blessings for yourself, and I hope that your meridians will have a trace of vitality if they are as strong as you say. The angry beard separated, and said sharply to Fang Su: "Lead the Qingfeng cavalry camp out of the city to capture people." ”

Everyone was stunned, thinking: Although the Qingfeng cavalry camp is difficult to be elite, as long as it is entangled by more than 30 masters under the city gate, then the 5,000 elite soldiers and 2,000 elite cavalry in Qingzhou not far away will rush up, and the city gate will be earned by the enemy in a moment, and Xinfeng City will not be far from destruction.

Fang Su hesitated, Chen Ang looked at it, Fang Su was stunned, did not dare to dissuade, and went down to the city tower to lead the troops.

Although Xu Ruyu said that he waved the knife at the tip of the enemy's Ge and took most of the enemy's strength away, but his strength was worth ten, and the Dan Xi was gradually about to be exhausted, and the long knife in his hand became heavier and heavier, and he couldn't cover all his body.

is in such a stalemate, and sooner or later it will die of exhaustion, but it can't get out of the predicament.

Suddenly, the momentum of the enemy cavalry around him was swinging, and the knowledge opened and closed, only to see Chen Ang slowly descending from the sky, like a god, Xu Ruyu was shocked: Although the godfather is peerless and brave, more than 30 people in the city are not enough to fight with him, but 2,000 enemy horsemen are waiting on the near side, if he can kill Chen Ang organically, Yi Hanwen will lose all 2,000 people, and he will be happy to do it.

The city gate behind him opened, and the horse's hooves sounded suddenly, and he didn't have time to think about it, only to see Chen Ang's shocking spear tip release an electric cocoon the size of an egg pill in the air, and the light in the electric cocoon flowed, which was strange and abnormal, as if the space was stretched open by a huge force in that place, knowing that Chen Ang forcibly launched the last type of god-killing spear in the shocking trick for himself. Busy closing the five senses, waiting for the arrival of the thunderous blow.

The wind whirled, and the air around him was suffocated, and the space stretched and contracted, imprinting strange patterns on Knowledge.

Only a few masters could see hundreds of fine flashes breaking out of the cocoon, and the spit suddenly grew, turning into more than 100 huge thunderbolts, attacking more than 30 people under the city regardless of the enemy (group attack technique, hehe), and even Chen Ang himself was inevitably hit by more than ten thunderbolts.

The wind did not stop, blowing strongly, and dozens of blood marks were scratched on the faces of the sergeants of the city tower. The rocks flew away, and the sudden dust covered the entire tower.

Qingfeng Jingqi had already prepared, and at the moment when the thunder light broke out of the cocoon, they all avoided their heads, and when the thunder light struck, they rushed out of the city and rushed Xu Ruyu, Chen Ang, and Zhang Zhongdao into the city together.

When the Qingzhou army came back from the horror of the huge power of killing gods, they saw more than 30 charred black corpses lying there in a strange and strange shape under the city, and they all thought: Is this a martial art that should appear in the world?
