Chapter 84: The Shield of Zhongzhou (2)
On the 25th day of July in the second year of Kangping, Ou Yin and Hu Tatar agreed on the day of the battle. On the plain ten miles away from Sili City, the shield armor soldiers of the Apocalypse Kingdom, the pikemen of the Western Chu and Donglin Kingdoms, the hook and sickle soldiers and other infantry armor soldiers totaled more than 400,000 and set up a huge eight-gate array.
The so-called Eight Gates Array is based on the Bagua Array of the famous military strategist Zhuge Wu during the Warring States Period, and the whole array is arranged according to the direction of the Bagua, with a total of eight entrances: life, injury, rest, Du, Jing, death, shock, and opening, but the breaker does not know which is the door of life and which is the door of death, and the formation will change according to the offensive of the breaker, so most of the people who break the formation after entering the formation are more likely to be more than lucky. However, after the transformation, the Eight Gates Great Array turned the door of life into the door of death, that is to say, those who entered the formation either broke out of the formation or were trapped in the death array, and there was no reason to get out of the formation unharmed. The so-called breaking the formation is to defeat and kill the eight guards who are defending the formation according to the Bagua directions: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui, and the big array is self-breaking.
At this time, the shield armor soldiers of the Eight Gate Great Array were guarding the hidden spearmen outside, and the eight generals defending the array were Ouyang Po of the Apocalypse Kingdom, Ou Liang, Hua Hu of the Xiao Kingdom, Yunze of the Northern Underworld Kingdom, Lu Wei of the Donglin Kingdom, Chu Ke of the South Yue Kingdom, Xiang Li and Xiang Lan of the Western Chu Kingdom, and the eight-pole array flag changed its position with the rotation of the large array, and the entire Eight Gate Great Array looked like a steel giant beast that wanted to choose people and love it.
The direction of the Eight Gates Great Array was dusty, and after a while, a big earthquake trembled, and a rumbling sound sounded in the south, which was the sound of hundreds of thousands of barbarian iron horsemen charging together.
When he got closer, Hu Tatar stopped his horse, and Rao is Hu Tatar was also shocked by the Eight Gate Great Array, which was a large steel array of 400,000 people.
"Big Leader", Ou Yin shouted on the other side of the big array, "The Eight Gates Great Array has been set up, please break the formation." ”
Hu Tar lema circled in place, as if to see the clues of the big array, Tie Ye Zong immediately stepped forward to ask for battle, "Big leader, give me 20,000 heavy armored cavalry, I'll go and charge the battle." ”
The barbarians had never seen such a formation, and they had no confidence in their hearts, but the brute bravery in their bones made them fearless.
"These eight large arrays are hiding killing machines, I will give you 50,000 heavy cavalry, you have to be careful, once the situation changes, I will personally raise the army to rush in to save you." Hu Tatar felt a little uneasy.
"Warriors, follow me!" Tie Ye roared and rushed towards the large array with his cavalry.
When it got closer, the shield wall automatically moved a gap, and the iron leaf led the soldiers to rush in through the gap, and the 50,000 army rushed into the big array, and the shield wall automatically closed again, and the door when they came in was gone, and the 50,000 iron horsemen were submerged in the big array in an instant.
I saw a banner from a distance, and the flag guard general Yun Ze immediately stood under the banner with a strong bow on his back, Tie Ye saw it and went straight to Yun Ze, and the cavalry behind followed closely, and when he was halfway through, he suddenly disappeared Yun Ze, and there were shields in front of him.
"Ahh Then the shield soldiers moved, rebuilt a shield wall in the place where the barbarians had just been killed, and immediately cut the barbarian cavalry into two sections.
"Not good!" Seeing that his troops were cut into two sections, Tie Ye knew that he had been fooled, so he reined in his horse and wanted to lead people to break through the newly constructed shield wall, but as soon as he rushed to the front, countless spears pierced out of the gaps in the shield, stabbing the barbarians who were charging forward on their backs.
Ou Yin stood on a high place, saw the situation in the formation, and clapped his hands, "Haha, reckless, reckless, haha!" ”
"Alliance leader, if Hu Tatar personally brings a large army into the battle, I am afraid that these eight large arrays will be difficult to bear." Ou Yin turned his head and saw that it was Safeng who spoke.
"I'm afraid that he won't enter the battle, if he really dares to enter the battle, the 400,000 troops behind me will shoot arrows into the formation together, he doesn't have enough space to charge in the formation, and his hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen will definitely be explained here."
Safeng felt a chill, "The coalition soldiers in that formation?" ”
"What are you afraid of, they have their own shields to guard, even if they are injured, I believe that in order to defeat these barbarian soldiers, they will understand." Ou Yin spoke, his eyes fixed on the situation in the large array.
Safeng no longer spoke, but his heart was full of emotion, this is the style of the biggest hero in Zhongzhou, I think that Hu Tatar is also the same person, I heard that he used the lives of hundreds of his subordinates to pave the way for himself in the sea of fire when he was in Shouyang Pass, is it really only such a person who deserves to climb to the top and compete in the world?
Safeng thinks he is a kind and righteous person, and the reason why he led the army here is to avenge his teacher, the high priest of the South Vietnamese Kingdom, Manra, and let him do what he did to his subordinates, but he has not been ruthless so far.
