Chapter 172: Chess Meets Opponents

When the wildfire burned the Great Food Guards battle array, when they approached the Tiger Guard ranks, as the monks raised their guns and stabbed forward, the aura was vigorous, and countless gun shadows converged into a cloud wall of spiritual energy, and the fire suddenly burst forward, and the fire wave suddenly surged, drowning the soldiers of the Tiger Guards from head to toe.

In the sound of firecrackers, the dispersed aura rolled the yellow sand and rolled wildly, like a waterfall and a pillar, and soon spread in the low sky. At this time, not only the soldiers of the front team of the Tiger Guards could not be seen, but even the figures of the monks of the front team of the Great Food Guards Army disappeared in the yellow sand.

And the sound of fierce fighting has come out of it, and the sound of Jin Ge is endless, and Li Ye frowned slightly when he heard it.

At this moment, he is in Kunon City, and he is the true body of the mortal body, so even if he is separated by the rolling yellow dust that is several zhang or even more than ten zhang high, and the thickness cannot be guessed, he can see the battle situation inside.

The battle was much more intense than he had imagined.

In his sight, the monks of the front team of the Great Food Guards, the first round of spells blasted on the shields of the soldiers of the front team of the Tiger Guards, causing countless spiritual energy explosions, connecting each other into lines, and converging into a surface, like a torrential rain falling on the surface of a lake.

Like the round shield of the Great Food Guard, the Great Shield of the Tiger Guard is also a magic weapon, although there is no light shield, but it is large enough to protect the whole body of the Tiger Guard.

For the soldiers on both sides in the yellow dust, the mud and dust would obstruct their vision. After three rounds of spells, the Great Food Guards failed to shake the Tiger Guards' formation, and many people looked at each other with a look of surprise in their eyes. Obviously, this kind of situation has not been encountered by them before.

The "captains" of the Great Food Guards reacted quickly and began to shout orders, so they gave up the spell bombardment and began to engage in close combat. And this is what the Tiger Guard soldiers are willing to see, when the spears of the Guards are pierced on the big shield, intending to tear the line and rush in, a spear is also pierced from behind the shield array.

Some spears were dodged by the Great Guards, while others stabbed the Guards monks.

Whether it was the Guards or the Tiger Guards, the blades used were all magic weapons, and the Guards who were stabbed by spears immediately saw blood.

Some were stabbed in the chest and lower abdomen, and the spear pierced directly through the body, and they stiffened, and when the spear was withdrawn, they vomited blood and fell in despair; some were stabbed in the arms and thighs, and the blood line flew away, but this did not completely delay their movements, and they could still fight.

The death of his companion stunned the Great Food Guard. In all the years they had never faced such an opponent who could block their attacks and give them a kill as soon as they took over.

The reaction of the Tiger Guard soldiers was similar, and although the spears they poked out, although they stabbed many people, many more were blocked by the opponent's blades. Among the people who were stabbed, the injured accounted for the majority, and there were very few who could really stab the spear into the opponent's chest and lower abdomen, and even one percent could not reach it.

More Guards soldiers, although they were stabbed by spears, because the blades hit the spears, changing the trajectory of the spears' attacks, coupled with the body protection aura, the spears even did little damage to them. Some of them didn't penetrate the body protection aura, and some just scratched the skin.

The battle was fierce from the start.

The army of the Central Plains Dynasty is very skilled in the way of battle formation, and they really haven't instigated any foreign soldiers when they compete with the way of infantry battle formation.

At this moment, they are the defenders again, waiting for work in the situation, and the formation can not be more stable, and the army is standing there, which is an iron wall and a towering mountain. Let the wind blow of the Great Eclipse Guard

The rain hits, the torrent hits, and it never moves.

The more ferocious the Great Food Guards attacked with spears, the greater their own casualties, and the officers and men of the Tang Army had a large shield to protect their bodies, so they did not give them a chance to take advantage of them at all. And the spears that pierced out of the gaps in the great shield pierced them like thorns in the jungle, stabbing them all over the ground.

The Great Eclipse Guards will either destroy the shield and knock down the shield-wielding soldiers, or they will only be pierced into bloody holes by the spears that keep poking out from behind the shield. Even if they were able to knock down a platoon of shield-wielding soldiers, the subsequent shield-wielding soldiers would still be strong.

This is the offensive and defensive situation, and the defender is always the one who takes advantage.

When the Great Eclipse Guards rushed over from the wasteland to attack the Tiger Guards' battle formation, they were destined to face this dilemma in the early stage of the battle. It's just that they didn't expect that the formation of the Tang Army would be so strong, and they still couldn't make progress after attacking for half an hour.

The monks behind the Great Eclipse Guards had already followed, and the attack in the front was blocked, leaving the soldiers in the rear to stand in place, anxiously waiting for the advance to be made.

However, they had 150,000 people, and they had an advantage in numbers, but this advantage was not enough for them to encircle the Tiger Guard battle formation.

If the fight continues like this, the Great Food Guards will not want to break through the Tiger Guard battle formation and enter the formation, and the battle will only be stalemate.

Li Ye saw the anger on the faces of the Guards monks, and the casualties of their companions not only did not make them afraid, but instead inspired their fighting spirit.

Finally, they changed their tactics, roaring and roaring, and under the beckoning and leadership of the high-level Qi cultivators, they gave up the idea of piercing the defense of the great shield with their spears, and jumped up in groups and crossed the heads of the shield-wielding tiger guards.

With a brave and light death attitude, they smashed down the formation of the Tiger Guards, blocking the attack with a round shield in their left hand and waving a scimitar in their right hand against the enemy.

Not surprisingly, such a brutal attack caused far more casualties to the Great Food Guards than just now. The Guards monks who fell into the battle formation of the Tiger Guards, although they surprised the Tiger Guards, the latter's shots were unambiguous, spears stabbed out, horizontal knives slashed, and the Guards monks in front of them were besieged and killed.

Like the Great Food Guards, the Tiger Guards were furious.

And their anger was even greater. Because they feel humiliated.

No one has ever dared to jump over the front team and jump directly into their main formation, what is the difference between that and sending them to death? Do these big cannibals think that they can't kill them?

Moreover, the Great Food Guards had been attacking their front line before, not to mention going forward and one after another, but the offensive was fierce, and the Tiger Guards could only defend passively all the time, unable to counterattack at all.

If this had been placed in the past, they would have found the gap between the opponent's attacks, broken the formation, and counterattacked into the opponent's military formation.

It's easy to attack and defend on the battlefield, it only takes one moment. The offensive part is most likely to have an uneven queue, and there is a gap in the queue due to the dead and wounded in the battle. For the Tiger Guards, as soon as such a situation arises, it is their chance to win.

But Mo Shuo, the Great Food Guard, never showed such a flaw, and he was tireless in fighting, which made the soldiers of the Tiger Guard feel a fire in their hearts.

Now, the other party even jumped over the front team and directly killed it, this is an opportunity for the Tiger Guard soldiers to vent their anger.

Seeing this, Li Ye twisted his eyebrows with his fingers.

He knew that the Great Eclipse Guards must be the elite, but after all, he still underestimated the fanatical performance of the Crescent Monks in battle

Groups of Crescent Moon Sect monks continued to glide through an arc from mid-air, leaping into the Tiger Guard battle formation and rushing left and right.

The consequence of this is that the Great Food Guard, which actually had no damage before, has suffered a sharp increase in casualties. One monk after another fell in front of the Tiger Guards, and one team after another became pools of flesh and blood on the ground.

But as if they could not see this, they continued to jump into the front line of the Tang army despite the casualties.

As the battle continued, the casualties of the Great Food Guards reached a certain number, and many of the Tiger Guards officers and men inevitably fell, and the originally tight and neat military formation appeared in a blank space.

These areas were basically quickly filled by the soldiers of the Tiger Guards.

But the speed of the Great Food Guards jumped too fast, and the monks almost formed a fountain in the air, without a single gap, so as the battle progressed, more and more Great Food Guards stood in the Tiger Guards' battle formation.

"They used the front row of shield arrays as the city wall, jumped over the city wall and directly entered the city, and when the tiger guards behind the city wall became scarce, the city wall would naturally be easy to deal with. ”

Li Ye heard a voice, and without looking back, he knew that it was King Qi.

"It's just that this kind of tactic is no different from sending the Great Food Guards monks to death in the hinging array. At this time, their casualties were several times that of mine, and even tenfold. Li Maozhen looked at the battlefield outside the city, with an inexplicable look flashing in her eyes.

Li Ye knew what she wanted to express.

The Tang army fought in all directions over the years, and encountered countless opponents, including the Tibetans, Nanzhao, Uighurs, Khitans, Silla, and Wa Kingdoms...... But no army has ever been as strong as the Great Food Guard. But more importantly, there is no army that is not afraid of death like them!

He is also a monk of the sect, and he is not afraid of death, and the followers of Shimen and Taoism are far inferior to the Crescent Moon Sect.

The only ones who can compete with them are the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

"There are 150,000 Great Food Guards in front of us, and although the numerical advantage is not small, it is not large, and it is not easy to give full play to this advantage. Li Ye looked at the scene of the two armies fighting and said.

As King Qi said, after paying the price of nearly ten times the casualties, the Great Food Guards rushed into the Tiger Guard's battle formation and began to engage in real hand-to-hand combat with the Tiger Guards. More and more monks of the Great Guards crossed the blood-drenched yellow sand, stepped over the corpses of the soldiers of the two armies, and rushed towards the soldiers of the Tiger Guards.

The soldiers in the front of the two sides have already begun to fight, killing you and me, and I have you, and it is difficult to separate. At all times, the monks on both sides fell, and they were never seen to get up again.

Li Ye continued: "If the Great Food Guards can't break through the shield array, no matter how the battle continues, it will only be the front team's fighting and attrition with each other, and it will not cause the whole army to fight. At most, it's a rotation.

"The combat strength of the two armies is equal, and they meet opponents, in this situation, they can't tear through the defense line of the Tiger Guards, and the battle will only be a stalemate. Mo said that he couldn't tell the winner today, and it wouldn't change much if he played for another ten days and a half months, or even ten months.

"But looking at the meaning of the commander of this Great Food Guard, his will to defeat the Tiger Guards is very resolute, and he would rather pay the price of thousands of soldiers' lives than bite with the Tiger Guards. They killed a lot of people, but when compared to the figure of 50,000, it is not worth making a fuss. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ye paused, "The Tiger Guards have indeed met their opponents, and Zhao Poyu has also encountered their fateful enemies. This battle will not be easy for anyone. ”
