Chapter 151: First Encounter

Gongsun Ji listened to Zhou Yi's analysis of the situation of the enemy and me, and was full of confidence in his heart, and turned around and relayed the original words to everyone, and everyone was excited when they heard it, and they all raised their knives and stood by, with fire in their eyes.

However, it was still the person who was dissatisfied with Zhou Yi, and said with a mocking face: "The master has his own hills and valleys in his heart, how can these thieves be his opponents? Those white-faced scholars who have wasted their fame can only talk on paper, but in the end they can't even see a shadow, it's really useless!"

Gongsun Ji has always wondered in his heart, with his understanding of Zhou Yi, although this young man is sometimes flamboyant, but his nature is very pure, at this time of life and death, how can he only care about his own safety and leave everyone behind? If not, then where did he go?

"Master, you don't still think about that Zhou Gongzi, do you?" the man asked with a look of disdain.

"Although he talked about people's hearts, I always felt that this man was thoughtful and knowledgeable, and his father had a life-saving grace with him, and he would definitely not flee from the battle at the moment of great enemies. Then again, he can perceive all the three obstacles arranged by his father, as well as the formations and mental techniques of the other party to deal with them in the battle, and he can count the hearts of the people without avoiding his edge, how can such a young man not let his father like it? I think about it carefully, and what he said is not unreasonable. Gongsun Ji was worried and couldn't help but sigh.

The man was about to refute, but after listening to his heartfelt words, it can be seen that Zhou Yi is the most proud disciple of the world, and if he wants to add up evil words, it is really boring to be self-deprecating. So he smiled and said: "The world is so big, and there are endless talented people, how can he be the only one who rises from the rivers and lakes? In the future, let's find a good apprentice for the old lady again." ”

"Looking for another one?" Gongsun Ji shook his head and laughed, "Maxima is often available, but Maxima is rare!"

As he was talking, he saw that a row of bright torches in front of him had entered within 100 meters, and the strong bow could already penetrate the enemy's shield array, and he hurriedly asked, "Can I make a move now?"

Gongsun Ji Chang let out a long breath, gritted his back molars and said, "I will advance and retreat with you, tonight, I will definitely bury these crazy people in this pine forest!" He held a long sword, and with a wave of his arm, everyone immediately triggered the mechanism. I saw that on the top of the pine tree, a row of logs tied to hemp rope swayed down, and went straight to the shield soldiers in the front row of the opponent and smashed it!

In an instant, the shield soldiers were smashed by hundreds of pounds of pine wood, and even the crossbowmen in the back row were implicated. The dead and wounded immediately fell to the ground, and the enemy formation became chaotic.

"Hold your ground! Call in the reserve army behind, act as shield men, and the crossbowmen follow closely behind, and shoot forward!"

His generals had just been dispatched, and before the formation was firmly established, he faintly heard a strange "buzzing" sound in the fog.

"Quickly adjust the shield soldier ......" The plain-clothed masters around him listened carefully and suddenly shouted! But before the words fell, the group of panicked and ownerless crossbowmen had already been shot down by the oncoming bamboo sticks!

The men in black and the masters around them bore the brunt, but they were so skilled that they jumped onto the pine trees before the bamboo sticks flew and escaped. The man in black looked behind him, and the soldiers who were like frightened bows were strung together by the bamboo sticks that were about a foot long, and the blood flowed like a river!

"Master, can you let your subordinates go over to find out the truth?" After a plain-clothed master possessed a pine tree, he held a cold light long sword, and was about to rush forward with a shield.

"Wait! They have already taken precautions, we have lost our morale this time, but we can't lose our positions!" The man in black waved his hand to signal all the soldiers behind him to extinguish the torch, and ordered the soldiers of the squadron to take shelter with cover first, and the crossbowmen shot at the feet.

In addition, two teams of men and horses, each of which dispatched more than 100 brave men to attract the opponent's forces with squadrons, and the detachments on both sides detoured to the rear of the opponent from the left and right sides, trying to outflank the front and rear, and the front and rear could not be taken into account.

"Master, only send more than a hundred soldiers, I'm afraid it is not enough to deter the opponent. ”

The man in black snorted coldly, and said decisively: "How many manpower he has available, I can only get to eight or nine times out of ten, if it weren't for him in the dark, I would have too many more than a hundred people!"

"Since the master is calculated, his subordinates are willing to take the lead!" Several masters on the left and right all asked for their lives.

"Kill chickens with a knife, your drama is still ahead, deal with these watchdog dogs, let them go is enough. ”

"So, what else does the master have to tell me to do it?"

The man in black paused slightly, and Fang said, "Capture the thief and capture the king!" When this obstacle is cleared, you follow me and go straight to the old nest of the grandson!"

As he spoke, he kept observing the bamboo sticks and arrows shot by the opponent, and when the opponent's offensive stopped for a while, he could order someone to shoot a volley of arrows.

Left and right didn't understand what it meant, so he asked: "The other party is hiding in the dark, since we have a sneak attack, there must be protection, we shoot without a target like this, I'm afraid it won't play a big role, but ...... On the contrary, it will be a waste of material resources. ”

"What's the use of keeping arrows if you don't shoot them?"16

"Subordinate Zhuojian! At the moment, this line of defense is so tricky, I'm afraid that when we get to Gongsun Mansion, we will encounter even greater trouble, and that's when bows and arrows come in, if ...... If there are no arrows to spare, will it not ......"

The man in black shook his head and smiled: "The so-called strategy of going to the army lies in attacking the heart! My army is pressing the realm, and how can he resist the soldiers of all the provinces, so he can only plan dangerous moves and win by surprise." I guess he gambled most of his forces to set up an ambush here in order to strike a blow and make us fearful. ”

"What do you mean, if we annihilate the opponent's ambush here, we will be victorious?"

As long as the left and right wings can be put in place in time, we will be able to wipe him out!"

"So, you let the soldiers fire arrows in unison, with the purpose of attracting the opponent's forces and allowing the people on the left and right flanks to make a smooth detour?"

"That's right! Instead of fighting them to the death, why don't you take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and catch turtles in an urn for him?"

"The master is wise!" then ordered the rear army, so that all the bows and crossbows that were ready for battle were put into battle.

At the same time, Gongsun Ji supervised the battle in front of the formation, and found that the other party had extinguished the torch, but instead shot indiscriminately, so he said to the left and right: "Listening to the sound of arrows, it is chaotic and disorderly, and there is no order, it seems that they are afraid." ”

Left and right smiled: "That's natural, this fog is filled, as long as we are silent, they don't know how many of us there are, so they can only use this meaningless random arrow to stabilize their position." ”

Gongsun Ji breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that they won't be able to get to my Gongsun Mansion tonight." ”

"So what do we do next, do we have to respond a little bit, otherwise they will think we are each of us. ”

"I don't think I'll ask my father what he means. ”

Before the words fell, they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the rear, and the two turned around, and saw that Shi Weng, the father of Gongsun Ji, turned over and jumped off the horse, hurried over, and said in a panicked tone: "Quickly order everyone to retreat, and merge with the second defense!"

Gongsun Ji looked dazed and asked, "Why? We succeeded in the first battle, but the other side can no longer take a step forward, and can only rely on random arrows to guard against our sudden attack, why should we retreat?"

Zhou Yi ordered people to retreat while explaining: "Did someone of you release arrows just now?"

"yes, what's going on?"

Zhou Yi paused and said: "If it is a trap, it can still blind the other party, but once someone shoots an arrow, it is enough to expose our position, and the place where one shot is only 100 meters, and we are only dozens of soldiers, if they make a detour and stir up from the rear, what should you do!"

When Gongsun Ji heard this, he immediately panicked and hurriedly said: "But their styles are clearly confused, is my father thinking too much?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and lamented: "Charging into battle, if you don't even have this way to hide people's eyes, then how can this person who has been shaking with the master all his life tonight be able to match his old man!"

Gongsun Ji was stunned, looked up at him, and asked, "Master, who are you?"

Zhou Yi missed the horse's feet in a hurry, and it was difficult to explain clearly for a while, so he took off the fake face on his face and said: "Sir, there is no need to say much, since the master sent me, he naturally has his reasons, let everyone retreat three miles, and there may be a catastrophe if you take a step later!"

Gongsun Ji and the people around him were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to do for a while. However, when I thought of Zhou Yi's deployment and arrangement of people and horses just now, they were very orderly and eclectic, and I couldn't help but secretly admire. At that moment, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly retreated with everyone.

Sure enough, less than 100 meters after the withdrawal, people on the left and right sides had already killed them. Fortunately, most of them had already broken away from their hearts, and they worked together inside and outside, plus Zhou Yi fought hard, killing dozens of masters on the other side one after another, so that everyone could safely withdraw to the second formation.

As soon as they gained a foothold, the two thousand troops in front of them suddenly reunited, and when they turned with the people on the left and right wings, they only got one person to go to the empty formation of the building.

Gongsun Ji and the people on the left and right admired Zhou Yi spontaneously, but on the other side of the battle, the man in black was secretly gritting his teeth, and he was bound to break the opponent tonight into pieces.
