Chapter 190: Six Taos
Oh!
The ground shook and the mountains shook, and the beast roared and rushed out from behind the barren hills. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info dozens of soldiers, under the leadership of a few talented candidates, could not organize an effective attack at all.
Bang bang bang......
As soon as the giant tail of the Nian Beast swept away, five or six soldiers were thrown out more than ten meters away and fell unconscious.
"Quick...... Attack! Attack...... Take a spear and stab it!"
Those few Xiucai were in a hurry, and they didn't have any rules at all, and they commanded the soldiers to attack indiscriminately. However, the leather armor of the beast was very thick that year, and these soldiers who were still in a state of panic couldn't even exert their strength, how could they pierce it?
Click!
The spears of the soldiers broke in response, and the beast roared even more angrily, and stepped forward with its teeth and claws, and the four top horns on the top of its head were extremely sharp, and when it rushed into the soldiers, it immediately pierced the chests of several soldiers, and then threw it into the big mouth, and ate it with relish.
"Let's go...... Run......"
Although they knew that this was a trial space, even if they died, they would just be kicked out, but the few commanding Xiucai had already been frightened in the face of such a terrifying and cruel year beast, and they no longer thought about arresting the year beast, leaving behind the dozen or so soldiers who were still left, and fled in the direction of the central village without looking back.
"Su Lin, no, this year beast is completely enraged. Now in the midst of madness, the combat power has more than doubled......"
Seeing this, Hong Liyu hurriedly shouted, but before she finished speaking, the Nian Beast had already discovered more than a thousand of their soldiers, and the red-eyed Nian Beast screamed, and rushed towards Su Lin and the others.
Xiucai and the soldiers were all frightened when they saw the bloody beast with its mouth wide open, and even some soldiers had already had the idea of escaping.
"Don't panic, everyone! Listen to my orders, and ...... the three armies bravely."
Facing the rushing Nian Beast, Su Lin waved his arms, and the holy power in his wisdom gushed out, and he immediately used the holy power spell of the "Three Armies of the Brave Champion" on the whole army.
The thoughts of holy power and courage poured into the soldiers' bodies, and it was timely to restrain the fearful thoughts in their hearts. However, this is not enough, the current combat strength of the soldiers is very weak, and without the assistance of the corresponding military formation, it is simply a plate of scattered sand.
Therefore, after Su Lin released the holy power spell of the three armies of Yongguan, he immediately combined the pinyin holy word "Ba", and instantly released the holy power spell "domineering and awe-inspiring" that he learned from Xiang Tianqing.
Whoosh whoosh ......
Obviously, the holy power in Su Lin Zhihai was simply not enough to supply the domineering power of more than a thousand soldiers. Therefore, he decisively threw out a silver ticket of 10,000 taels, even if the efficiency of using the half-saint power was not high, Su Lin also decisively absorbed the holy power on the silver ticket.
The combined holy character "Ba" bloomed with a domineering aura that was even frightened when the beast saw it, spreading out and infiltrating into the body of every soldier.
In an instant, the muscles on the soldiers' bodies skyrocketed, and their strength increased exponentially. Although it was not as strong as the nine soldiers that Surin had strengthened last time, each soldier now was at least equivalent to the strength of a brute elite.
"The Holy Power Spell 'Domineering and Awe-inspiring', this is the family learning spell of the Xiang family in Jianning Mansion? A Confucian who has not been cultivated by domineering cannot use it at all? Su Lin, how can you use this spell, and ...... You actually have the holy word 'ba', isn't this 'ba' the only holy word? How can it be in your hands?"
Hong Liyu was worthy of being knowledgeable, and at a glance he recognized the source of the domineering spell that Su Lin cast, and said in surprise, "Domineering and awe-inspiring, it is one of the few holy power spells that can multiply the combat power of soldiers!"
"Liyu, my pinyin holy character has been small. However, at present, it can only be combined into a few comprehended holy words, and this domineering awe-inspiring I still learned it from Xiang Tianqing!"
Seeing that the soldiers' combat power and bravery were condensed, Su Lin raised his arms and commanded the soldiers to attack towards the Nian Beast.
Kill!
Soldiers in armor and spears in their hands rushed towards the mad beast without fear of death.
The sharp spear, with a hint of domineering, stabbed fiercely at the heavy carapace of the year beast. One spear broke, and immediately another spear came up on top. Under the superposition of domineering and awe-inspiring power, the spears in the hands of these soldiers finally pierced into the body of the year beast one by one.
Whoop......
Black blood splattered out, and the Nian Beast became in pain, roared angrily, and went completely crazy, and its big tail quickly swept sideways, taking the lives of several soldiers.
"Su Lin, the Year Beast is too powerful. Our soldiers did not set up a formation, and suffered a great loss, and now they have lost more than thirty soldiers. Hong Liyu said anxiously.
"Well, but I can see that this year beast is already at the end of its crossbow, and you see, it is not as strong as it used to be when it flicks its tail. Keep killing for me, and ...... towards the fragile eyes and belly of the Nian Beast."
It was the first time that Surin had tried to command a soldier in this way, and he was not very proficient, but fortunately the soldiers were more obedient than the real soldiers. Under Su Lin's coordinated command, another round of charges was launched against the Nian Beast, and hundreds of sharp spears pierced into the Nian Beast's body again.
Oh......
Eventually, the Nian Beast let out a reluctant roar, unable to fight back, and fell heavily to the ground, the ground shook.
"It's dead! The Year Beast is dead, Su Lin, we have won! We have caught the first Year Beast!" Hong Liyu said in surprise.
The other Xiucai and soldiers also cheered, and fought bloodily for nearly half an hour, sacrificing the lives of seventy or eighty soldiers before finally killing the beast.
"Well, however, the results were not encouraging, and we lost seventy or eighty soldiers. I didn't expect the beast to go crazy this year, especially his strong tail, which was very strong. Basically, every sweep takes the lives of several soldiers. ”
Although he had killed the first year beast, there was no joy on Surin's face. He secretly said in his heart: "A single Year Beast is already so difficult and powerful, if you wait until the day of the New Year, hundreds of Year Beasts will attack the central village together. How can you resist it?"
"Liyu, with our current strength, is enough. But if during the New Year, a large number of New Year beasts are coming. You can't do it all at once, and with the soldiers, you can't resist the charge of many year beasts at all. We'll have to think of something else......"
Su Lin invited Hong Liyu to step forward and carefully inspect the corpse of the Nian Beast. Although this is a conjured Year Beast, its strength is thousands of times weaker than the real fierce beast Year Beast in the legend, but the breath on the Nian Beast is the same.
Looking at the corpse that quickly decomposed after the death of the year beast, the foul blood that flowed out with a foul smell, Su Lin frowned and stared, and the three ways of thinking in Zhihai began to capture the breath on the year beast, he was trying to analyze what kind of thinking the year beast was born from.
"How is it?Su Lin, have you found anything?Can you know the origin of the Nian Beast's thoughts?" asked Hong Liyu nervously.
"It's messy, it's rotten...... For the time being, I don't know what kind of thinking it is, but there is a direction, and I must carefully analyze it with three ways of thinking......"
Su Lin has always been very grateful to Mr. Cai for the allusion of "Confucius and Horses", which allowed him to understand the workaround and form his thoughts into the three states of water. This is the most critical part of Su Lin's ability to grow up from an impulsive and ignorant teenager, because these three ways of thinking have changed Su Lin's perspective on problems and made him think more comprehensively.
However, because Su Lin's current position is still too low, and he only has talents, he can only analyze the problem in a simple way with three kinds of thinking. If he waits for his literary rank to be a little higher, reaching Hanlin or even Confucianism, he will be able to use the three ways of thinking to predict and calculate, and may even be more accurate than the Taoist "Six Yao" divination.
The huge corpse of the year beast, after death, quickly decayed into a pile of dry bones. Su Lin and the others didn't need to bring back the corpse of the Year Beast, the trial space would automatically calculate the number of Year Beasts killed by each team. At that time, a fair calculation will be made according to the amount of contribution contributed by each talent.
"Su Lin, we don't have a soldier's formation book here, so it's really a loss. The advantages of the soldiers in forming an army are completely inadequate, you see...... In front of them was the army led by Zhao Yi, and their army, every three hundred people, could form a legion to go to the wilderness to hunt the Year Beast. ”
On the way back to the central village, Su Lin and the others met a 300-strong army led by Zhao Yi of Jianning Village, which was also rounding up and hunting a Nian beast.
"Their army, so neat...... Momentum...... It seems that they are all united, this is the use of soldiers' thoughts, not a simple military book......" Su Lin saw Zhao Yi who was the leader at a glance, and on the top of his head, there was a huge holy word "Tao".
"What is that, the holy word 'Tao'? exudes a strategic idea of a soldier, is this the military book that Zhao Yi practiced?"
"Tao, Shengzi Tao, I know, Zhao Yi's cultivation of the military book is "Six Tao"!"
Hong Liyu also stared ahead, thought about it, and said, ""Liutao" is an anonymous Confucian soldier who made a Taoist art of war in the name of Jiang Taigong Lu Wang. Although it is not as famous as "The Art of War" and "Thirty-six Strategies", it is also very incisive in the elaboration of soldiers' thoughts. The six Taos are Wen Tao (on the strategy of governing the country and employing people), Wu Tao (on the strategy of using troops), Long Tao (on military organization), Hu Tao (on the war environment and weapons and formations), Bao Tao (on tactics), and Dog Tao (on the command and training of the army) ......"
