Chapter 550: Sharpening the Soldiers
Before Ding Qin could go in, he had already been stopped.
Because the security set up here is significantly stricter than in other places.
In fact, according to the fact that this team was not on the periphery, coupled with the degree of damage in the previous battle, it is estimated that the vigilance has already broken up a long time ago, but here, the more they are beaten, the less they are fewer, and the stricter the vigilance.
There are two secret sentinels that stop Ding Qin. The place where these two people are hiding is actually two big trees.
The trunks of these two trees were hollowed out, and people hid in them.
Ding Qin looked closely, not only some of the trees were hollowed out, but there were also many hidden people below the ground. When I came here, I was basically already under their surveillance as soon as I entered the alert range.
Because Ding Qin was still wearing the clothes of the special brigade, the attitude of the two sentry posts was relatively polite, "I'm sorry, further ahead is the camp of Sijing Town, because we have heavy casualties here, and a large number of people are being treated, so it is not appropriate to be disturbed by outsiders." If there is nothing special, please take a detour. ”
Ding Qin said directly, "I'm looking for Lu Yong." ”
The two men looked at each other, and one of them said, "What are you looking for the captain?"
Ding Qin said, "I'm here to deliver the letter." ”
A layer of caution appeared on the faces of the two people, "What letter?"
Ding Qin smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, it's inconvenient to tell you." I had to see Captain Lou in person. ”
The two deliberated briefly, one of them stayed, and the other went inside. After a short time, the person who reported it returned, accompanied by a man in his fifties.
The man was not tall, but he was stocky, with a dark complexion and very bright eyes. As soon as he spoke, his voice was very low but not hoarse, "You are looking for me, and you are sent by the special brigade?"
Ding Qin shook his head and handed over Kodak's letter, "I'm here to deliver the letter." ”
Seeing the white paper without words, Lu Yong's face changed slightly. After that, he took the letter, placed it between his palms, and exerted spiritual power, and soon clear handwriting appeared on the paper.
Not long after that, the paper burned itself and turned to ashes.
Lu Yong nodded and instructed a person next to him, "Go and get a set of our clothes." ”
After that, he took Ding Qin into a tent nearby, and after Ding Qin finished changing his clothes, he said, "Please come with me." ”
Lu Yong's tent is in the middle, but it is no different from the other tents, they are all the same size and furnishings. After entering, he asked people to serve tea and invited Ding Qin to take a seat.
Ding Qin was not restrained, after all, he already had Kodak's letter. He said directly, "Captain Lu, my intention must have been clearly written on the letter. ”
Lu Yong nodded, "Hmm." General Ke wrote all about your experience and intentions. I just lack an experienced commander here, so you came at the right time. ”
Ding Qin said, "Captain Lu is serious about this. I had only been involved in command, and I was new to Chaos and wasn't familiar with the way of fighting here. I just want us to work together to accomplish this task. ”
Lu Yong waved his hand, "No, it's not. You don't know me. Previously, I was an official in charge of logistics under General Ke, and I was later assigned to Sijing Town. My command skills were actually learned on an ad hoc basis, and I had no prior combat experience. You're here, just to make up for the shortcomings of our entire team. ”
Only then did Ding Qin understand Kodak's intentions. However, even so, he still placed himself in a higher position with Lu Yong. "Captain Lu, that's it. In the future, you will set the general direction, and I will complete the details. I just hope that when the time comes, our team will be able to perform at the level it deserves and fulfill the responsibilities that were intended. ”
Lu Yong did not refuse. Subsequently, he took Ding Qin to understand the current situation of the team as a whole.
After several battles and the effects of the hot food supply, there are 1,231 combat personnel in the team, but there are probably more than 100 of them, who are affected by the chronic toxins in the food. Fortunately, after the first battle, the logistics personnel of this team have all been damaged, and they have begun to organize supplies on their own, and there is no longer the continued invasion of toxins.
Therefore, after a while, when the impact of the toxin has developed to its maximum, those more than 100 people should leave the team on their own.
Of the remaining more than 1,000 people, there are 800 people who will not rebel if they really have a base.
Ding Qin looked at the basic information of these 800 people one by one on the roster, and probably had a number in his heart.
He was in no hurry to regroup. Because he had to take a good look at the manuscript Kodak had left for him, and choose a few of the most suitable battle formations to train.
At present, time is limited, and it is unrealistic to want to train a team in a comprehensive way.
And precisely, there is content on it that is in line with Ding Qin's thoughts.
The special brigade did not pay much attention to Ding Qin's disappearance. They also searched for two or three days, but they didn't find Ding Qin's whereabouts, and then they disappeared.
A week after arriving in Sijing Town, Ding Qin had already made a training plan. Subsequently, he and Lu Yong reorganized the personnel.
All personnel were divided into eight squadrons of one hundred people each, for a total of eight hundred. Each squadron corresponds to a hexagram of the eight trigrams, which are Qian, Kun, Li, Xun, Kan, Zhen, Gen, and Dui. The squadrons will be freely combined according to the command, and they will work together to give full play to their might.
Under each squadron, it is divided into five squads, each with twenty people, and each squad corresponds to one of the five elements, namely metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Each squad is divided into two groups, corresponding to yin and yang, with ten people each.
In this way, in fact, all the elements added together form eighty basic forces. For example, the masculine earth-based Qiangua, the feminine gold-based kun hexagram, and so on. Under effective command, the 80 basic forces can produce unimaginable changes.
This method of preparation is known as the Yin and Yang Five Elements Bagua Army. In Kodak's notes, this is a form of military organization at the highest level of Chaos. The one who invented this form of organization was actually the first king to confer the title of general of the five elements and erect the monument of the holy name.
Because commanding an army of this size requires a great deal of experience and extremely quick judgment, there have been attempts over the years, but not much has been achieved. Because in addition to commanding, in order for this form of organization to truly exert its power, it also requires the commander to have a pure five-element physique.
Only with a pure Five Elements physique can the individual's spirit be fully integrated with the team. In that case, the personal thinking of the conductor can be directly fed back into the brain of each member, without the need for additional command links.
In this way, complex formations can become the ability to change in an instant.
Without this kind of physique, once the command command is delayed, the complex formation will become a chaotic mess, which will reduce the power.
And precisely, Ding Qin is a pure water physique.
Regarding the Five Elements Physique, the Bone Soul has already remembered some records. This kind of physique is difficult to pick one out of a million, and it is even less divided into five different natures.
Ding Qin's pure water physique mainly increased his spirit and stamina.
And the enhancement of mental power undoubtedly made him more suitable for using this type of preparation.
This is also the best choice he came up with after discussing with the bone soul.
At first, Lu Yong was a little surprised by Ding Qin's decision. However, when he saw that Ding Qin had exerted extraordinary effects when he commanded for the first time, a stone fell to the ground in his heart.
He could vaguely feel that Ding Qin would be the brightest star in that station.
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
Under the constant harassment of Kodak's subordinates, the Sand City Raiding Party slowly moved forward, and finally left the mountains and entered a plain.
And its strength, from the original nearly 40,000 people, is only more than 20,000 people. More than 10,000 people, due to the untimely supply of hot food, toxin reduction, confusion, left the team, and did not know where to go.
Since there was no longer terrain cover, Kodak's subordinates also stopped harassing here. The raiding party regained its previous marching speed and hot food support, and quickly approached the Yin-Yang Palace.
And the Yin and Yang Five Elements Bagua Army established by Ding Qin has basically taken shape in that month. After leaving the mountains, the group's camping position was concentrated again, and he was no longer in a position to train.
After another seven days of marching, the Yin-Yang Palace has appeared in people's field of vision.
Ding Qin was surprised to find that the Yin-Yang Palace was actually colored.
This is the biggest feature that distinguishes it from other places.
In the chaos, this was the first time Ding Qin had seen a place with color.
Although such a color can only be regarded as a very light color compared to the two states of heaven and earth, it is undoubtedly a bright heart.
Compared with the sand city that Ding Qin has seen, the scale of the entire Yin-Yang Palace is not very large, about ten miles from east to west, and it should be about the same in depth, but in it, I don't know whether it is the topography or architectural design, the middle is high and the four sides are low, and it is scattered.
The Shacheng Raid Team stopped directly at a place about twenty miles south of the Yin-Yang Palace. From here to the Yin-Yang Palace, it was already full of grass, and of course it was still that gray grass.
In other directions, Ding Qin also saw teams from other landforms.
At this time, it is most appropriate to describe it as a heavy army.
After being stationed here for three days, the head of Shacheng City gave the order and began to charge forward.
This, of course, is a unified order. Under the order, the three teams that Ding Qin could see rushed straight towards the Yin-Yang Palace in a black and oppressive manner.
And when they had just entered the range of about twenty miles around the Yin-Yang Palace, the counterattack of the Yin-Yang Palace began.
Countless formation patterns lit up in the grass, and the entire surrounding area of the Yin-Yang Palace entered the coverage of the formation. As soon as the soldiers stepped into the area, the grass on the ground turned into sharp blades that flew upward, piercing through shields and cutting into flesh.
All of a sudden, the blood flowed like a river.
But it's blood, and it has no color here.
Ding Qin has been paying attention to Guantong's movements. His team maintained a relatively slow pace and kept an eye out for following the pipe.
When all the teams entered the formation area halfway through, the formation patterns also darkened significantly. Whether it is the number of flying grass blades or the power of a single blade, they are significantly weakened.
Most of the energy in the formation has been consumed!
And under the walls of the Yin-Yang Palace, a team of people and horses were already waiting.
