Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Price of Growth

Ji Yun commanded the change of formation, with the spear formation in front and the crossbow formation in the back, and a group of five people began to take turns to attack Wang Dashi's five people in the middle.

Wang Dashi didn't think much of it at first, his attention was focused on Wei Wuxian's body, Wei Wuxian just didn't make a move, just standing there with a sword was an invisible deterrent to him. But after a while, he made a change, the courage of the spearmen around him was far beyond his imagination, although the strength of each spear was still inferior to his own and the others, the difference was very limited, and it was very difficult to cut off the opponent's spearhead with a bloody blade.

In addition, these spearmen were not only powerful, but also extremely flexible, mainly stabbing and stabbing, and with the cooperation of crossbowmen from the periphery, it did not take long for them to be forced into a ball.

Ji Yun is not in a hurry, this is a rare opportunity to train troops, commanding the spear array to attack in turn, it was a little rusty at first, after all, training and actual combat are different, and the other party is an evil man who can use different arts, and the rotation of the formation is not very natural, and there are many loopholes. Fortunately, the crossbow array in the rear was powerful, and the other party was forced back by a wave of arrows as soon as he wanted to break through the loophole.

The blood blade in the hands of Wang Dashi and others can defile the spirit weapon, and the ordinary sword weapon will not be able to be banned by its filth after a long time of fighting, but it is of little use to the spears in the hands of the spearmen, at most these spears are corroded earlier, and before the spears are completely useless, the other party is enough to kill them more than a hundred times.

"Who are these guys, why are they so difficult!" Kong Baihou said with a few spears.

"It's Wei Wuxian's private soldier. ”

"No, if we can kill a few people like this, we will end up being exhausted and dying here by them. ”

"Then use the 'secret method'!"

"That's all there is to it, we'll cover you. ”

"Good. After Kong Baihou finished speaking, he retreated to the middle of the four, only to see that his whole body trembled like chaff, and the exposed skin turned blood-red, and a faint layer of blood mist appeared around him.

Wei Wuxian had been following the battle closely. He didn't expect Ji Yun to be so bold, and he actually let the crossbowmen only be responsible for breaking the siege outside, and he didn't go all out, looking like he was planning to hone the recruits here. He didn't interfere, the experience was to be accumulated through battle, and if he didn't spare a little blood, he would die what some people would do. Growth also comes at a cost, so knowing that the other party has a plan, he still stands still and lets him deal with it. This is also a kind of training for the commander, it depends on whether Ji Yun can survive this hurdle.

Ji Yun is now completely immersed in the state of combat, as a commander, he needs to control the overall situation, the opponent's formation suddenly changed, and the four of them guarded one corner to protect Kong Bai in the middle, how could such an obvious change escape his eyes. He pointed to Kong Baihou in the middle and said loudly: "The crossbow array concentrates on attacking the guy in the middle, and the spear array echelon strengthens the attack." ”

Just as Wei Wuxian had guessed, Ji Yun wanted to train the team, and the crossbow array only shot in times of crisis at first, but now it was fully involved in the battle, and the situation that was originally holding each other changed in an instant. First of all, the rotation of the spear formation increased, and when the spearmen went up and stabbed one spear and retreated, the spears of the other group stabbed again, leaving almost no room for the opponent to breathe.

The other ten groups of crossbow formations, one group is a reserve team, and the remaining nine groups are three groups of one team, divided into three waves to carry out a cluster attack on Kong Baihou in the middle, Wang Dashi and the others are barely supporting, and now the pressure is even greater, so they are a little breathless, and they can't care about the arrows that shoot at Kong Baihou.

Kong Baihou's face was flushed at this time, and small beads of blood oozed from his body, whether it was the righteous path or the evil path, powerful spells or magic weapons, it usually took time to prepare. He was now at the most critical moment, facing the arrows shooting from all directions, he had to end the spell early, his hands were twisted into fists, and with a loud shout, the whole person suddenly pulled up half a head, his body swelled in a large circle, and the coarse cloth clothes outside were broken by the muscles of the tomb and hung on it.

At this moment, the arrow came at him, and it was as if it had struck an iron man, and it was bounced out, and not a single arrow could hurt him.

"Hahaha. Boys, let's see how Grandpa cleans you up!" Kong Baihou strode between the two people in front, grabbed five or six spears with one arm, and struck hard, and the five or six spearmen were directly pushed aside by a huge force, and they also knocked away more than a dozen people, and the formation was immediately chaotic. Wang Dashi and another person took the opportunity to step forward and fly with their bloody blades, and in the blink of an eye, they reaped the lives of four spearmen. Just as they were about to kill indiscriminately, dozens of arrows came at them, forcing the two to retreat and parry.

Kong Baihou strode forward, his body became larger and his reaction was not as good as before, and he looked a little clumsy. However, with him in the way, Wang Dashi and the four of them followed behind, killing all the way and no one could stop him.

Wei Wuxian still didn't move, this time is the most important test of the commander's ability, how Ji Yun should deal with it, is what he is currently concerned about.

After a period of chaos, with the help of the crossbowmen, the spear formation was restored, and the spear formation composed of Chen Zijun and Tie Niu was inserted between Kong Baihou and Wang Dashi, cutting them apart, and the crossbowmen were also cooperating with them, so that Kong Baihou was powerless to obstruct them. These crossbowmen were instructed, and the crossbow arrows were only aimed at Kong Baihou's eyes, and Ji Yun didn't believe that the other party could train his eyes to be as hard as iron and stone.

Moreover, he found that although Kong Baihou was not afraid of arrows, he could still make him feel severe pain after being shot, so Kong Baihou was constantly screaming by arrows, and he lost his arrogance just now.

Wang Dashi led the three of them to rush left and right, but they were never able to rush out and join Kong Baihou, after a hard battle, their strength gradually began to run out, the bloody blade in their hands became heavier and heavier, and their bodies were full of wounds made by spears and arrows, and everyone became bloody.

"Chief Envoy, what should I do, Deputy Chief Envoy Kong is afraid that he won't be able to support it for long. "One of them.

Wang Dashi had already seen that Kong Baihou's body overdrawn by the secret method was becoming more and more unstable, and the whole person switched back and forth between the virtual and the real, and it probably didn't take a stick of incense to completely transform from virtual to real and return to its original appearance. And there is no resistance, any ordinary soldier can kill him.

Wang Dashi said helplessly: "I can't run, let's fight one by one!"

The other three didn't know how to do it in their hearts, but they didn't show too much timidity, and said in unison: "My subordinates are willing to be with the Lord Envoy." ”

"Good. Rush over and kill these miscellaneous pieces!" Wang Dashi summoned the last strength of his body, and waved the bloody blade in his hand and rushed towards Chen Zijun.

The other three also found their own targets to kill, all with the intention of death.

Chen Zijun saw that Wang Dashi didn't even care about the spears stabbed by other people on the side, and killed himself like this with a full body of injuries, but he had a little admiration in his heart, although the two sides were hostile, but it did not prevent the soldiers from respecting the strong man, of course, out of respect for the opponent, he did not flinch, the spear in his hand was straight, and he went up.

On the other side, Kong Baihou had already fallen, his body was full of arrows, and he had never been able to break out of the spear formation to join Wang Dashi and the others.

After Chen Zijun pierced Wang Dashi's chest with a spear, the battle finally ended, no one cheered, a hundred spearmen and crossbowmen against five people, and it took nearly an hour to achieve a crushing victory at the cost of thirteen killed, seven seriously wounded, and twenty-one lightly wounded.

A burst of applause came. Everyone looked at the unharmed son who had never made a move, and their thoughts were different.

There are those who don't understand, with Wei Wuxian's strength, if he makes a move, there will definitely be no such big damage, and the people who fall are all comrades-in-arms who have trained together and lived together for more than a year, and no one will feel good if they die.

There are those who are grateful, such as Ji Yun, Chen Zijun and others, Wei Wuxian gave them the opportunity to show themselves, and fully believed in them, such a leader deserves respect.

Wei Wuxian swept his gaze to everyone waiting for him to speak, and simply said: "Growth comes at a price, from now on, you are no longer a civil warrior, but a real warrior!"

Ji Yun was so excited that he raised his spear and roared: "Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

Everyone raised their spears and shouted at the sky.
