Chapter 40: The Phantom of the Demon Fox (Subscription Requested!)

"The Xuanwu Array is worthy of being one of the five formations of the military family appointed by His Majesty, and it has such a miraculous effect!"

Seeing the advance of the army, unstoppable, Xuanwu was even more swaggering his head and tail, bending and winding to the left, advancing and retreating freely, as if he was playing casually, wantonly teasing, and suppressing the will to fight, Huang Tianhua couldn't help but be amazed.

It stands to reason that the Great Shang did not use slaves to form an army, and the cost of temporarily recruiting civilians was far higher than that of cheap slaves, and the effect of training should not be as good as that of the four princes.

But facts have proved that the power of one general can determine the three armies, and the royal division trained by His Majesty is by no means comparable to the half-hung princes.

Those who use soldiers, know themselves and know their opponents, and will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

If you know yourself but don't know the other, you will have no good plan to fight, and you will be beaten passively, and if you know the other but don't know yourself, you will have a good plan, but it is powerful and difficult to implement.

"Kill!"

At this moment, Huang Tianhua's confidence soared, Wang Shi not only wanted to harvest Xiqi's cavalry, but the Xuanwu array began to take the initiative to change, and with a loud whistle, the shield was removed at the same time.

While giving up defense, what is exchanged for a ferocious and fierce offensive force.

The infantry galloped, marching with vigorous steps, roaring out the majestic spirit of shaking the earth and the mountains, the chariots gathered, and the tall and mighty warriors shouted a majestic battle cry to the sky, surging and tearing the vastness.

Suzaku Formation!

At this moment, Ji Fa, Chongheihu, Jiang Wenhuan and even Su Hu, Zhang Kui, Gao Lanying, Zheng Lun and all the generals in Jizhou City couldn't help but be shocked.

For the three major princes, not to mention that they haven't taken Jizhou City yet, even if they do, they won't be able to hold the city in the face of such an army!

As for Su Hu, he was forced to flip the table, he was originally a prince, and the arrogance in his heart was needless to say, but now he was all broken.

In the Romance of the Gods, Su Hu was the first to rebel, and the reason was very funny, because the king heard of Su Daji's good name and wanted to admit her into the harem, but Su Hu resolutely refused to allow it, and then simply wrote an anti-poem, fled back to Jizhou from Chaoge, and rebelled in anger.

This kind of strange thing, corresponding to this era, is not completely unreasonable.

In the Shang Dynasty, due to the high status of women, marriage was basically equal to free love, men and women did not need the consent of their parents to marry, they could do it if they wanted, and men did not need to give the woman's family a dowry, and if the woman's parents accepted the man's dowry, they would be laughed at by the neighbors, which was a shame.

In the same way, dedicating his daughter to Shang Jun is also despised by the princes, Su Hu has a strong temperament, and it is normal that he is unwilling to do it, but he rebels if he is unwilling, obviously he did not put himself in the position of a courtier.

Unwilling to marry, there is also a way, the Shang Dynasty attaches great importance to divination, there is no parent's matchmaker's words, but there is a disagreement between the eight characters, as long as a priest is asked to occupy Su Daji's eight characters and the king of Xu, there is a way to ease, no roundabout way to do, directly reversed, the root of it, or self-reliance on the strength of Jizhou, unwilling to bow down.

Su Hu in this era has no idea of rebellion, but he is still full of confidence in the strength of Jizhou, if Zheng Lun hadn't conquered it from the inside this time, he would never have been defeated so quickly and so miserably.

But now, when he saw the Huanghuang Wang Shi and the army pressing the border, a thought suddenly sprouted in his heart.

Letting her daughter into the palace is an emergency method, maybe it's a blessing in disguise, it's a good idea?

If you can think about this, naturally the crisis has been solved, and Ji Fa, Chongheihu and Jiang Wenhuan, who were still competing for Su Hu, made changes together.

One word -

Withdraw!

If you don't retreat, you can't do it, Wang Shi is orthodox, and his strength is far stronger than them, and the three princes are even more competitive.

"Childe with 20,000 soldiers, leave quickly!"

Zheng Lun covered Chongheihu, Zhang Kui and Gao Lanying covered Jiang Wenhuan, and they all withdrew towards the north gate and the east gate, and Nangong Shi shouted at Ji Fa.

"Take care, old general!"

Ji Fa nodded, without a moment's hesitation, led 20,000 Xiqi troops and retreated to the west.

Nangong Shi stayed, and changed the formation with nine thousand soldiers and horses, arranging a round formation that was as natural as a natural formation.

It is not that the Grand Duke of Xiqi is selfless and covers the retreat of Donglu and Beiyuan, but that their position bears the brunt.

Nangong Shi is a veteran of the battlefield, and he knows that handing over his back to the enemy will inevitably lead to a big rout, and only by fighting and retreating can he preserve his strength to the greatest extent.

The circular array is the most reliable and solid formation of all defensive formations, it is better than thick and solid, and the operation is simple, but the circular array arranged by Nangong Shi is different from the circle formation of the previous Wang Division, he did not arrange all the nine thousand troops into a circle, but according to the terrain and the defensive measures established by himself, arranged into six circular formations of large and small, scattered and wrong.

These six circles are close to each other, with gaps in them, allowing a small number of cavalry to intersperse them, and each of the two circles is closely spaced apart, which not only connects support, but also skillfully maintains their independence, even if they are forcibly separated by the enemy, they can still fight for a long time.

Therefore, despite retreating, facing the overwhelming Wang Shi who launched a fierce assault in all directions, Nangong Shi's formation was like a rock in the sea, standing still.

Xiqi soldiers also have shields, although there is no Mo family's craftsmanship, it looks very rough, but the small shields are also like fish scales, protecting the vital points of the soldiers, and even blocking the rain of arrows like tinkling arrows, and at the same time the spear in hand is tilted out at the same angle, from above, every two round formations are like two hedgehogs back to back, although surrounded by wolves, the strength is very different, but if the wolves want to attack, they will also be stabbed with a mouthful of blood, injuring the enemy and losing eight hundred.

Not only that, Nangong Shi lined up with nine thousand, and the remaining one thousand continued to stay in Jizhou City and wantonly free slaves.

In fact, when Boyi returned from the examination in the past, and proposed the reform, he resolutely opposed it, but the wood was already in the boat, since there was no turning back from the bow, so simply do not do two things, and completely offend those slave owners to death.

Compared with the old and strong Nangong Shi, the four brothers of the Huang family are obviously tender, at first they wanted to wipe out the three parties, and then they wanted to pursue Ji Fa, but they found that they couldn't gnaw the hard bone of Nangong Shi, and their tactics could not be implemented, and they missed the best opportunity to destroy the enemy.

When the chaos in the city resumed, Huang Tianhua had to send troops, and Su Hu didn't care about his thoughts, organized his subordinates, and began to suppress them.

So, no one paid attention to it, in the carriage of the Su family, the phantom had already sneaked in, looking at Su Daji, who was beautiful and fragrant, and showed a smile.

"Just use your body to complete the task entrusted by your mother!"

But the moment she drilled into Su Daji's body, a five-colored light swept straight through the void.
