Those who fight, with the right combination, with the odd victory, so the good and surprising, infinite as heaven and earth, inexhaustible as a river.

The Art of War

The heavy snow kept falling, Kong Ming stood in the middle of the formation, looking at the enemy camp in front of him, he could only faintly see countless fires, and occasionally a few passwords came, and the attack was about to begin.

On that day, after Kong Ming was sent to the third battalion of the Guards by the black wolf, he and the others arrived at a manor outside the city, from the outside, it seemed that it was an ordinary manor of a nobleman, but inside it was a military fortress, and many soldiers who were not wearing military uniforms were sent around the fortress, and Kong Ming and they also came in batches, wearing civilian clothes. After coming, they issued a set of gray-white light armor to Kong Ming, a two-handed long sword with fire magic fluctuations, from the point of view of the sword itself, it was much more advanced than Kong Ming's long sword, Kong Ming tried, obviously this is a good sword, and the weight is just right, Kong Ming didn't use any force, it cut off an ordinary long sword, and the light armor made of unknown things is not only very strong, but also engraved with a magic array, exuding bursts of fire energy, obviously he can enhance Kong Ming's fighting spirit。 If that's all it takes, it doesn't surprise Kong Ming, what surprises Kong Ming even more is that the weapons that the fortress equips everyone who comes here are almost as if they were tailor-made, and after issuing the weapons, they give the soldiers a day of rest, and give each of them a magical image, and let everyone remember, and their mission is only one, no matter what the cost, to make that person die, even if they all die. Before leaving, they also gave three pills to each of the soldiers, two red ones were black pills, and they told the soldiers that the two red pills could greatly improve their fighting spirit in a short period of time, and enter the next level, which would cost a lot of money to get outside, and the black ones were the antidote for them to solve the sequelae brought by the red medicine. Before the battle, take a red pill before leaving, another before attacking, and another after the end, so that they can not only improve their own strength, but also permanently, and not temporarily. Before they set off, each of them was drugged under the supervision of one of the men in the fort. From the outside, this medicine is indeed like what they say, it is a medicine to improve strength, and Kong Ming was very excited when he saw that some people next to him saw this medicine, and kept whispering, "Washing the myelin pill, washing the myelin pill!" Oh my God, it's really the pill of the myelin." As he spoke, he took a sip, then sat down on the spot, and began to run his fighting qi to cultivate directly, and soon someone reacted, and his momentum increased a lot, and everyone was very excited, and the person who supervised it was obviously very satisfied with this effect. It didn't take long for a person from a castle to walk in front of Kong Ming and give the three pills to Kong Ming, Kong Ming was holding a red pill in his hand, and his heart was constantly drumming, although he was only a fourteen-year-old boy, but after several life and death battles, he subconsciously had many things that were very cautious, if he hadn't been cautious, he would have died under the enemy's knife, constantly playing with the medicine in his hand, Kong Ming could feel the powerful attributeless energy inside, a swordsman wanted to enter the next level, whether it was the understanding of the sword or the fighting spirit in the body, there must be a significant increase, before the sixth level, that is, the swordsman's energy before the sixth level is more important, and after the sixth level swordsman, the individual's understanding of the fighting spirit is even more important. That is to say, a swordsman can greatly improve his strength by using drugs like this before the sixth level (inclusive), but after the sixth level, it is impossible to use this method to improve, of course, this promotion has a price, after all, it is not his own step-by-step improvement, the foundation is not solid, and the lack of understanding of fighting spirit, the more difficult it is to cultivate in the future, and the average person will end at the level of sixth level for life, so the general big family will use this method to improve the strength of those disciples with low qualifications, and for those who are slightly better, they are not allowed to use this method, just let them cultivate slowly by themselvesso that there can be the greatest improvement. And the price of this drug is also very expensive, at least it is impossible for ordinary people to bear, this time to provide so many people with so many equipment and so many good medicines, it can be seen that the person who supplied it has made a bloody investment. And Kongming is the final and most important link of this group of blood, because on the other hand, they are a group of dead soldiers, people who will die. Of course, Kong Ming didn't know this situation at this time, he just kept looking at the pill, and the person opposite him was obviously very impatient, urging Kong Ming to eat it quickly, and he had to send medicine to others, but the more he urged Kong Ming, the more confused he became, but Kong Ming saw that everyone else had eaten it, if he didn't eat it, it would be a violation of the military order, and the consequences were self-evident, and he ate it directly with a ruthless heart, but Kong Ming was also a magician after all, and he was also a magician of the fire and space systems, although he didn't study much about medicine, but he also knew that if he ate like thisEven if his strength has increased greatly now, it can't be completely digested, and that huge energy is a great impact on anyone's meridians, some of this impact can be recovered, some can't be recovered, and it won't hurt forever, thinking about it, this is the main reason why some people can no longer reach the highest end of cultivation. As soon as he ate the pill, Kong Ming immediately felt a burst of fiery huge energy emanating from the medicine, and fortunately, Kong Ming was a space magician, at this time, Kong Ming used a small magic technique to divide the medicine into several parts for absorption. First of all, when he ate it, he deliberately bit the medicine into several parts, some large and some small, and then he used magic to isolate most of the medicine from his body, so that although he ate the whole medicine, only a small part of the medicine could work, but even this small part of the medicine also contained a huge amount of energy, while the other medicines were separated by a complete space, so that those medicines would not lose their effect. The huge energy spread out along Kong Ming's meridians, and Kong Ming hurriedly removed all his clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear, because Kong Ming heard Kasia say that once a person takes this kind of myelin cleansing pill, then a lot of heat will be emitted for a period of time, and these heat will remove some impurities in the body, and these impurities are oozing out of the pores of the body, so even in winter, Kong Ming does not hesitate to take off all his clothes. When the overseer saw that Kong Ming had already taken it and that the medicine had worked, he said no more and went to give the others the extra medicine. Sora didn't know that before him, there were many people who went through such a real yàn and divided a medicine into several parts to eat, which can reduce the negative effects of this medicine, but without exception they all failed, because those who ate it, after eating it once, the effect of eating the other points disappeared, and it could only be a waste of medicine, so the average person gathered those children or other people together when the children were young, and then immediately divided the medicine into the required amounts, and ate it immediately, otherwise the effect of the medicine would disappear immediately, because once the drug destroys the outer skin, the medicine will quickly volatilizeIf only this is the case, everyone is still acceptable, after all, the volatilization of a medicine as long as it is like Kongming, can be inhibited, but the same amount of medicine can only achieve the best effect by one-time absorption, other people as long as they eat some, without exception, they have to go through some time to digest, and once the digestion time has passed, there will be no effect if you eat it again, and Kongming does not have this problem, because Kongming can supply several other drugs to the meridians at any time when the efficacy of the medicine is reduced, but other people do not have this ability, they can only let others supply themUnless someone has reached a certain level, who has such a precise ability to give medicine to others? And these are only passed down in a few large families.

At the moment when the huge energy emanated into the meridians, Kong Ming tried his best to run the fire dragon fighting qi, constantly using the fire dragon fighting qi to fuse these energies, and at the same time constantly consolidating and repairing those meridians that were broken by the energy, so as not to let the meridians be damaged too strictly, those fiery energy continued to merge with the meridians of the empty ming, and the meridians of the empty ming were expanding and rebuilding in the continuous fusion and damage, and at the same time, those energies continued to penetrate into the skin of the empty ming. In the kidneys, strengthen the function of these places, Kong Ming let the energy travel along the route of the fire dragon fighting qi, until a moment when the energy began to decrease, Kong Ming knew that the small part of the medicine had been digested, and he hurriedly released a part of the medicine that was sealed by him, so that the energy was strong again and constantly integrated into the meridians of Kong Ming, becoming a part of Kong Ming's fighting energy, unconsciously, Kong Ming's fighting energy has been so strong that it is very afraid of another Kong Ming, This is the energy that Kong Ming has never had, what a powerful fighting spirit this is, at this moment, Kong Ming knew that his strength had improved to a point that he had never dared to think about before, and when he woke up from his cultivation, a powerful aura emanated from his body, whether it was fighting qi or body, it was the same. In the case of couldn't help it, he forgot the other qiē, forgot where he was, he subconsciously raised his head and roared at the sky, the sound was endless for a long time, like a dragon in the groan, when he stopped, he remembered where he was now, and hurriedly put away the excitement in his heart. But Kong Ming's worry was obviously superfluous, because after he stopped, he looked in all directions, and no one noticed his Cunzài, and after a while Kong Ming knew why no one noticed his Cunzài, because in this night, in this castle, there were many, many people like him, and it wasn't until after they gathered that Kong Ming knew that there were more than a thousand of them in total, and what a terrible force this is to have such an ability! Kong Ming relaxed for a moment, and saw that there were constantly people howling, and there were constantly people shouting, and there were constantly people rolling and wailing there, and so on. Kong Ming didn't go to meet these things, and he didn't stand up immediately, because Kasia told him that after every breakthrough, it was best to sit quietly cross-legged and experience the feeling of breakthrough, so that it would be beneficial to one's cultivation, rather than the excitement at the end, which would miss this feeling of rebirth and be detrimental to future development. Kong Ming sat down again and entered the inner vision, Kong Ming felt that the fighting energy in the meridians was no longer the kind of gaseous state integrated into the meridians, but the liquid state, completely liquid fighting energy, that was the mark of the senior swordsman, that is to say, from now on Kong Ming is already a sixth-level swordsman, that is, a senior swordsman. Giving up the excitement, Kong Ming continued to cultivate according to the cultivation method of the Fire Dragon Fighting Qi, integrating the sudden explosion of strength into his body, making it truly a part of himself. When he completely mastered all the fighting energy, he was a strong man, a real strong man, and all the people here were like this, of course, these people, including Kong Ming, could also be the shortest-lived senior swordsman, the shortest-lived powerhouse. I don't know how much time has passed, Kong Ming has a feeling, a very wonderful feeling, if I have to use a language to describe it, it is the feeling of returning to the arms of his mother, the longer this feeling, the better Kong Ming's understanding of the sword, the more in-depth the mastery. Slowly, slowly, Kong Ming's fighting spirit calmed down quietly from surging to quiet, until it returned to calm, as if it had been too long ago, and suddenly there was a sound outside, "ding", which woke Kong Ming up from his deep sleep, slowly opened his eyes, and a fiery red light was released from his eyes, and then his eyes returned to ordinary. Kong Ming saw that all the people had woken up, and everyone's situation was different. There are those whose clothes are so rotten, some who are mixed with mud, some who are mixed with blood clots, and some who have a trace of blood attached to their bodies, and some who are like Kong Ming, who only have a pair of underwear left, but without exception, all of them are already very skilled, Kong Ming looked at the past, many people's momentum was exactly the same as Kong Ming, and there were many people who were much weaker than Kong Ming. Everyone didn't move, and when they reached the fifth level swordsman or above, the usual cold could no longer pose a threat to them. A voice came from above the castle: " I think everyone already knows how much your ability has improved now, and some people also know why you have improved, that is because that medicine, which is the elixir that is hard to find outside, is a medicine that quickly improves people's abilities, but after taking this medicine, your strength will be difficult to improve again, but you must know that most of you will not enter the current realm in your lifetime, plus the armor and sword given to you, which are all according to the nature of your fighting spirit and the training route, it should be very suitable for you。 We have spent so much money, why, for the sake of Kari's future, for our descendants, young men, pick up your long sword, put on your armor, bring your war horses, follow me, Wang Zisheng, and challenge the road to the future together, Kari will win. ”

"Kari will win!"

"Kari will win!!"

"Kari must win !!"

The voice that came out of the mouths of a thousand intermediate swordsmen and senior swordsmen was very shocking and exciting, and Kong Ming's blood, which had already become cold in the process of tearing up, actually boiled again, but all of a sudden, it made Kong Ming press down again, because Kong Ming knew that a hot-blooded person could not survive for a long time on the battlefield. Kong Ming's blood is boiling because of the resonance of so many people, but I don't know why those people are so hot-blooded? In fact, it is Kong Ming's ignorance, who is Wang Zisheng? That is the generation of sword saints in Kari, and he is a figure on the same level as Sun Guangping in Kari, and there are few people in Kari who don't know, but Kong Ming is one of them. But Kongming's ignorance does not mean that everyone is ignorant, thinking that the goal that everyone has been striving for is right in front of them, it has to make them feel excited, and they can't help but not be excited, what makes them even more excited is that they actually have the opportunity to fight with the Sword Master. In this way, together with their idols, they began a famous stupid suicide assault in military history, a pathetic suicide assault that became the famous "suicide assault" ridiculed by later generations. If it weren't for Kong Ming's participation, then it might have only been ridiculed for a while, but because of Kong Ming's participation, this ordinary failed assault became the object of ridicule for many years by future generations.

More than 1,000 people of the Kari commando team, after more than 20 days of forced marching, finally arrived at the place of attack. It was already on the edge of the Qingyuan Prairie, a small valley in the Demonic Beast Mountains near Kaining City, a fortress on the side of the Huayuan Empire. This valley is a scenic spot where the dignitaries and nobles in Kaining City often come to play, the terrain is not very large, there are several long-term open-air hot springs in this resort, even in the cold winter, in the vicinity of this hot spring, it still looks a bit like spring, some plants in the valley by the hot springs are still very verdant and dripping, and the flowers are red and willow green. But at this time, the Kari commandos did not come here to play, but learned that the characters in the painting were playing here, as if they didn't care about winning or losing the war. The Kari commandos have killed all the horses in a place more than ten kilometers away from this, in order to prevent unnecessary trouble caused by blood, all the people are using fighting spirit to shock their horses to death, and then arrive here on foot, late at night, under the leadership of a spy who was waiting here in advance, they wore the armor or magic robes issued to them, and swaggered all the way towards the enemy's military camp, they cleared all the guards on the periphery of this side, and slowly approached the enemy camp, so that Kong Ming was unbelievable that all the sentries were not too strange when they saw them, and there was a lot of envy in their eyesIt seems that they are not wearing the armor that Kari specially chose for them, but the armor of the enemy army, but Kong Ming has never seen such a costume among the enemy army, which is really strange, and in the envious eyes of those sentinels, after checking that all the qiē including the military badges, passwords, and other tokens are correct, they let them pass. After the examination, the people around them killed all the sentinels at a very fast speed, and it was not until the moment before they died that their eyes changed from envy to surprise, and in the astonishment, no one could give even a signal, whether it was open or secret, it was evident that Kari was fully prepared. They walked all the way, the enemy didn't seem to notice, because Kong Ming still vaguely heard the laughter of many women in those open-air hot springs, of course, it was also accompanied by a not very harmonious male voice, the sword master seemed to be very familiar with the man's voice, carefully identified it, his expression was no longer so tense, and even a thoughtful smile appeared in the corner of his mouth, and in this smile they walked towards the enemy camp.

The night shrouded the entire valley, and the strong temperature difference between inside and outside the valley made the white water vapor fill the valley, but for a "master" like Kong Ming, this kind of water vapor could not completely cover all the sight, at least he could still see about forty meters away, and in the water vapor, the big lanterns in front of the barracks were the best things for them to indicate the direction. The assault was in a pointed formation, with Wang Zisheng at the front, his swordsmen and shield warriors on both sides, and dozens of magicians behind them. The people of the entire commando team are under the leadership of that spy, like a real Huayuan army, and originally Kari is part of Huayuan, and Kari's army is also Huayuan's army, such a root plain, plus the spy's military orders and tokens, how many soldiers can distinguish the authenticity? In order not to attract the attention of the enemy because of the large number of people, the magicians used levitation techniques, so that their feet did not touch the ground to follow the others, and the other people, also used some fighting energy to make their bodies lighter, although it was impossible to not touch the ground like the mage, but also greatly reduced the sound of the pace, more than a thousand people marching, sounding like there were only more than a hundred people. It's the same as a normal patrol. When he was still more than a hundred meters away from the enemy camp, Kong Ming felt that something was wrong, because he was too smooth, and it was as if the other party was cooperating with him, as if both sides were reasoning according to a plan. And Kong Ming's people on his own side are because of the people who have just improved their strength, in Kong Ming's opinion, those magicians are obviously also using some method to improve quickly, because they have not been able to control the magic fluctuations on their bodies well, and there are many people among the swordsmen and shield warriors, who can feel the fluctuations of those fighting energy and magic energy without getting close, even if they have used a magic item shielding necklace to cover up most of the fluctuations, but still not completely shielded all the fluctuations, even Kong Ming feels a little incredible, why they have touched here, only more than a hundred meters away from the enemy camp, the enemy still hasn't discovered their save, is it really Karry's job is so good, this is a fluctuation that even a great swordsman can find. If the enemy still hasn't discovered them, then there are only a few cases, first, either the enemy's ability is too low to find their existence, but that is obviously impossible, because if their ability is low, then who will use a team of more than a thousand high-level swordsmen and high-level mages led by a sword master to attack? Even if those high-level swordsmen are a group of high-level swordsmen who have not yet fully mastered the same abilities as their strength. Second, Kari's internal work is so good that before they arrived, they had completely controlled all the situation, which is a little possibility, but it is unlikely, because if the situation has been controlled, then there is no need for a spy to lead them without explaining anything, for fear of causing misunderstanding between the two sides. Thirdly, Wang Zisheng and they were completely caught in the enemy's trap, because only this possibility could be fully justified, and only by entering the enemy's trap would the enemy let them freely pass through the defense line of the guò barracks without hindrance. Of course, there is a fourth possibility, that is, there is no target for them to attack, so there is no need for effective defense at all, so it makes sense for them to enter here so easily, but in that case, will the spy bring them in for a tour? And now, Kong Ming only hopes that this is the last possibility, only in this way, can they leave this place safely.

Wang Zisheng, who was walking in front, seemed to feel something, stood up straight, gave up all disguises with a wave of his hand, tore off the cloak of the Huayuan Empire that he was wearing, and let out a long howl to the sky, when the thousand soldiers heard this long howl, they also tore off their cloaks and drew their long swords, while those magicians didn't know where to take out their magic wands, and began to look around vigilantly. After hearing this long roar, Kong Ming knew that his fears had come true, and that they had fallen into an ambush by the enemy, that is, they had changed from hunters to prey. After a long roar, Wang Zisheng said to the barracks: "Cheng Zitian, Cheng Ziqing, you can come out, hmph, the dignified Twin Sword Saints are still like the shrunken Wang Ba, can't they be in the eyes of people?" Wang Zisheng's tone was obviously provocative and disdainful.

"Haha," came a laugh from the camp, and when the laughter stopped, three men appeared at the entrance of the camp, but anyone could hear the laughter that contained a lot of embarrassment and hostility.
