Chapter 62: Eight Gates Golden Lock Array
The formation of the Shenxiao Sanhe coalition army was based on Jing Zhisheng's mixed infantry and cavalry troops led by Jing Yigu as the left wing, 1,200 cavalry, and 800 infantry as auxiliaries, totaling 2,000, Long Aotian personally led 5,000 people as the middle army, Li Xun's 3,000 Sanhe Rui soldiers as the right wing, and Gu Taineng led 3,000 Shenxiao veterans as the rear army.
A total of 13,000 people.
The middle army of the Shentang Army was 3,000 soldiers led by Su Mengzhen, with 2,000 people on the left and right wings, totaling 7,000.
Wu Feng rolled his eyes, looked at Ji Hongyan beside him in the light, and smiled heartily: "Beautiful girl, it's really fate that you are my deputy general again." β
The right flank of the Shentang Army was led by Wu Feng and faced the troops of Iiya on the left flank of the coalition army. Su Mengzhen even sent Ji Hongyan to Wu Feng as a deputy general.
The left flank of the Shentang Army was led by Su Can, assisted by Lin Xiuzhen, Lin Tonggu brothers and others.
This is due to the fact that in the battle of Anxiang City, the Three Rivers Army suffered heavy losses, the bloody battalion was almost completely wiped out, and a large number of elite soldiers withered, and it was impossible to recover its combat effectiveness in a short time. In comparison, the cavalry-based troops of the Ii Valley are undoubtedly much more threatening on the plains.
Ji Hongyan's delicate nose trembled, and she snorted lowly, turning her head away, not bothering to pay attention to him.
Wu Feng smiled and looked ahead, only to see that under the bloody sun, the red armor of Jing Yigu's knights became more and more vivid, standing solemnly on the field, ten thousand horses did not neigh, like blood-colored waves condensed into ice.
Just such a confrontation, I felt the murderous aura coming to my face.
"Then ......" Wu Feng patted his shoulder freehand, and his eyes swept towards the group of soldiers around him like lightning: "Brothers, take the knives and guns in your hands and do what they are raised by this group of bitches!"
These words are very vulgar, but for the non-commissioned officers of the Shrine who are not very high in morale today, they have played a role in dissolving depression, causing many people to laugh lowly.
Behind him, there was an extremely tight formation.
It is similar to a square circle, but it is not symmetrical when you look closely, and the inner sergeant and pawn are arranged in a secret gossip, which seems to have many mysteries.
The crossbowmen are in the center, and the pikemen and sword soldiers are mixed.
The guns are all hooked, which is a hook sickle, and the knives are long-handled knives, single-pointed and double-edged, and the sharpness is incomparable.
This kind of long-handled knife is called the Mo knife, the long halberd is light, but the lethality is also very terrifying, a knife chop, the man and the horse are broken, it is a powerful weapon against the cavalry.
Both the Mosaber and the Euphorbia were able to restrain the cavalry, but the Euphorbia were hoplites with poor mobility, making them suitable for holding on to dangerous situations, or against the charge of heavy cavalry, and could also rely on heavy armor to resist cavalry fire. The Mo sword soldiers strike a balance between combat effectiveness and mobility, and are more suitable for dealing with light cavalry, but they are a little weak in the face of mounted archery.
This Modao team is another trump card of Su Mengzhen. The cost of equipment is slightly lower than that of the Euphorbia, but the difficulty of using it is also extremely high, and it also takes a long time to practice freely and cooperate with other arms to fight smoothly.
During the previous battle of Anxiang City, this Modao team stayed in the rear to monitor the biggest unstable factor inside the Divine Hall, the Qingzhou Palace. But now Su Mengzhen is holding on to the power of victory, forcing Qingzhou Hall to send troops to help in the battle, and this elite army has also been liberated to be put into the front line, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
This combination of the Mo Knife Team, the Hook Scythe Spear, and the Crossbowmen is obviously aimed at the Red Armor Elite Cavalry of Iiya.
One of the Four Heavenly Kings of Shenxiao, Jing Yi Gu Gu Master Jing Naosheng heard Wu Feng's mockery, and he let out a sneer under the mask.
"Children don't know how thick the sky is. Jing Zhisheng said calmly: "Cavalry, charge, destroy it in one fell swoop." β
Jing Naosheng has always been known for his courage and bravery, and he has made great achievements, but he is also known as brave and resourceless.
"Wait!" the adjutant general said hurriedly: "Valley Master, be careful." β
Naomori's face was shrouded in a red ghost mask, revealing only two eyeholes. His eyes were like ice and he looked at the lieutenant general, and said, "Why? Could it be that it is a clichΓ© known to three-year-olds such as Mo swords, hooks, and sickles to restrain cavalry?"
Jing Naosheng's personality is as cold as hell, but his style is as fast as fire, and this contrast makes him particularly impersonal and intimidating.
The deputy general hurriedly said: "Gu Master, please take a closer look at the formation, it is not an ordinary square circle array, but an eight-gate golden lock array! This array is divided into eight gates, rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, shock, and opening, which is secretly in line with the principle of Qimen Dunjia, and can flow and change." rushed into battle, one was not careful, and the whole army was swallowed. β
Jing Zhisheng's deputy general is a famous military advisor in Jingbei, and he does have some vision. This array is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array that was handed down in the Middle Ages.
Su Mengzhen was originally a master of formation, and he single-handedly created this army. And Wu Feng's father-in-law, Xue Yiren, is even more knowledgeable from the strengths of various families, in addition to poison arts, he is especially good at Qimen Dunjia, and his daughter Xue Xiyan has also obtained most of the true inheritance.
In the past few months, Wu Feng asked Xue Xiyan to guide this team, and the training of these eight golden lock formations has become more and more exquisite, that is, to deal with the elite cavalry of Jing Yigu.
The reason why there are no extremely heavily armored halberders in the formation is precisely to ensure the flow ability of the formation.
Jing Zhisheng said: "Do you have a countermeasure?"
The lieutenant general muttered, "This ...... Ask the valley lord to disturb it with a ranger, watch its changes, and let the last general observe it for a while, and find a way to break the formation. β
"Ridiculous!" Jing Zhisheng said categorically: "The use of soldiers is like fighting fires, how can it be delayed?
He broke off his drink, threw the command flag in his hand to the ground, and splashed dust and smoke into the sky: "It's getting dark, break the enemy army before the sun sets, and eat dinner early!"
The golden drums moved, the flags danced, the Jingyi cavalry rode their horses and howled the west wind, and the quiet wall of blood turned into a river of blood, surging towards the Wu Feng Department of the Shentang Army.
Under the light of the remnant sun, this river of blood became more and more poignant, and the murderous aura was full of murderous aura, pointing directly at the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array.
Wu Feng pressed the long sword in his hand and smiled at the soldiers: "Come up and touch it so hard, Jing Zhisheng, this stupid thing has courage and no strategy, it is really true." β
He waved his hand suddenly: "Brothers, the guys and kill them!"
Hearing this, many Shentang sergeants also laughed, but Ji Hongyan's face was a little bad for some reason.
The Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation was rolling like a tide, and different arms were in their respective positions, ready to meet the first wave of the murderous attack of the Jing Yi cavalry.
"Prepare head-on!" Wu Feng drank with his sword.
Ji Hongyan came over at this time, and said in a low voice: "Jing Zhisheng is also a general of a hundred battles, you despise him so much, I'm afraid it will ......."
Wu Feng replied with a smile: "Defeating the enemy has courage and no strategy, which is a technique to boost morale. What's more, Jing Zhisheng's trick is indeed not in my eyes. β
"Looking at the momentum of the enemy cavalry, he did not intend to break through the formation door and tear the formation, but planned to directly impact the formation wall, trying to use the strong impact force to make the formation collapse by itself. β
"However, for this situation, there are also changes in tactics, the formation is creeping and deformed, the walls of the formation are inverted, the sides are protruding, and the double bread clamps are like grinding discs rolling, crushing the invading enemy, and it is also secretly in line with the method of Qimen Dunjia to discipline the enemy army-"
Wu Feng paused, and resolutely said four words, loudly.
"There is no return!"
