【Chapter 27】The Real Battlefield

Li Xiaochen drew a gourd according to the scoop, waved his hand, and according to the size, number and configuration of the opponent, he also turned his red chess pieces into real soldiers and horses. The lineups of the two sides are basically the same, except for the "phase".

The "elephant" of Jin Yu is transformed into an elephant soldier. And Li Xiaochen's "appearance" has changed to a Confucian general with a lupine scarf. Looking closely, each "phase" is equipped with a Confucian general in a Taoist robe. Eighty-one boys followed.

The Red armies were all dressed in silver armor and red robes. Especially the coach with Li Xiaochen's personal appearance, with silver-white battle armor and a red cloak, just like Mei Zhoulang in the Three Kingdoms era, majestic and majestic.

The crowd was intrigued by this miraculous technique. The relatives of the Tang family all let out exclamations with great interest. They had never seen anyone conjure up such a real small battlefield as if by magic. This chessboard is no longer a chessboard at all, but a military sand table with exquisite workmanship and many changes.

Although Tang Yao had seen some immortal cultivators' fighting methods, he had never seen such a wonderful and interesting fighting method. She pulled Qin Yufei and asked in a low voice, "Yufei, how did this change? It's amazing, isn't it? ”

Qin Yufei explained to her: "Actually, it's the first time I've seen someone use chess to create this kind of scene. If I'm right, it's a realistic form of reorganizing the structure of the chess pieces and the board itself. To put it simply, it is to reorganize the structure of matter and then change it. Unexpectedly, Li Xiaochen only saw the change of gold and jade once, and he could learn and sell it now, which is really amazing. ”

Tang Yao, who didn't understand what he understood, frowned and said, "Change the shape of the material by changing its structure, isn't that too supernatural?"

Qin Yufei also frowned slightly, and said, "I heard that when the micromolecules are separated to the minimum, in fact, there is only one substance in the world. The rest of the elements and objects are made from this smallest substance through different structures and combinations. Immortal art must have completely changed the object itself by changing its structure and form. ”

Tang Yao was even more confused at this time. She looked at Qin Yufei blankly and asked, "You're not sure?"

Qin Yufei smiled shyly: "I don't know everything. Compared with this uncertain theory, I understand the theory and application of Taoism better. That is, I should be able to turn the chess pieces into that army as well. But I don't necessarily have a thorough understanding of how it works. ”

Tang Yao covered his forehead and sighed, "It's so complicated." I don't think I'll be able to learn this theory. ”

Between the two answers, Jin Yu said: "Minister Li, the rules of this second game are very simple, you don't have to stick to the walking rules of Chinese chess, just like a real battle. In the course of the competition, it is only allowed to manipulate the various items on the chessboard. Cannot be applied directly to the board. In other words, you can deal a blow to your side by manipulating your team and terrain. But you can't spoil the battle with your hands or anything else. In addition, the winner is determined by the fact that whoever kills the opposing manager first wins. Got it?"

Li Xiaochen nodded and replied, "No problem." ”

Jin Yu moved his gaze to Tang Zongtian, and then said, "Mr. Tang, please be a referee, is it okay?"

"Ah, ah, yes, yes. Tang Zongtian was stunned by the dynamic scene in front of him. He was secretly surprised, but suddenly his name was called. That's when I came to my senses.

Jin Yu swept everyone with a sideways eye, and said: "There is an old saying in China, which is called a true gentleman who does not speak when watching chess. If any of you give a warning when we are playing chess, even if Minister Li loses. In the same way, if my mother reminds me, then even if I lose. That's not too much to ask, isn't it?"

"Not too much, not too much. Let's go. Tang Zongtian was also interested. He had never seen such an interesting way of playing chess. The two eyes stared straight at the chessboard, without blinking.

"Minister Li, I'm offended. Jin Yu took the lead in driving the two black cannons.

Everyone heard two booms in their ears. The two cannons fired two shells that hit the Red soldiers. Seeing that his soldiers were about to suffer the baptism of cannonballs, Li Xiaochen immediately mobilized his true qi and used his driving skills to control his two cannons to shoot cannonballs and kill the two huge cannonballs on the other side.

Four shells collided in the air, making a loud explosion. This real sense of presence caused everyone to be amazed.

While firing the shells, Li Xiaochen drove his soldiers to cross the river in boats. Jin Yu threw cannonballs at Li Xiaochen while manipulating his soldiers to shoot at the elite soldiers of the red side who crossed the river with bows and arrows.

Li Xiaochen controlled his two groups of "phase" troops and began to do so. The Confucian general in a Taoist robe immediately pinched the magic trick and ascended to the altar to cast a spell. In the blink of an eye, the sky above the Han realm of the Chu River was overcast, and the fog was continuous, making it impossible to see the situation of the Red Fang soldiers crossing the river.

Since he could not know the specific location of the opponent on the river, Jin Yu could only let the soldiers fire arrows in unison, in order to stop the enemy. Onlookers heard the sound of drums and shouts coming from the Han realm of the Chu River, as well as the rhythmic sound of paddling. But occasionally I heard the screams of the soldiers after being hit by arrows.

Jin Yu didn't expect that the "phase" of the red side was still a mage who could change the weather, and fell into passivity for a while. However, he quickly adjusted, adjusted the angle of the cannon, and blasted towards these Confucian generals and boys who knew the Dao.

Li Xiaochen also responded, bombarding the opponent's shells with his own cannon. After a stalemate, he mobilized a light cavalry and chariot force and rushed to the left side of the Han border of the Chu River.

Seeing that the clouds and mist on the Han realm of the Chu River could not be dispersed, Jin Yu sent an elephant soldier unit to the front line and sucked the clouds and mist from the sky above the Han realm of the Chu River with the mouth and nose of an elephant. This kind of thing that is difficult to do in reality can only be achieved through immortal arts.

Who would have thought that as soon as this cloud and mist disappeared, Jin Yu was taken aback. It turned out that Li Xiaochen used the clouds and mist to block his sight, and in a very short period of time, he used the infantry to build a wide bridge to cross the river on the left side of the Chu River and Han border.

The previous major offensive was nothing more than a façade. His real purpose was to allow the carriage and horses to pass through. At this moment, the light cavalry and the chariots with strong mobility that Li Xiaochen had just mobilized had already run onto the bridge.

As soon as Jin Yu's soldiers encountered the enemy's soldiers and horses, they were defeated at the first touch and hurriedly retreated. Li Xiaochen didn't care about 3721, drove the soldiers and horses, drove straight in, and smashed the Yellow Dragon.

Seeing this move, Qin Yufei secretly screamed badly. This is obviously Jin Yu's trick to lure the enemy. Li Xiaochen's pair of soldiers and horses went too deep into the enemy's hinterland, and sooner or later they would suffer a big loss.

She wanted to give a reminder, but she was afraid that she would break the rules and cause Li Xiaochen to lose the competition. So I can only sigh slightly.

At this time, light cavalry and chariots opened the way in front. Followed by 10,000 elite soldiers, like a long snake, killing the commander. Jin Yu lined up his troops, luring Li Xiaochen's troops deep with the remnants of his troops, and on the other hand, he brought in iron cavalry and foot soldiers to surround this red army. After all of them crossed the river, Jin Yu immediately increased his forces and carried out encirclement and suppression.

The red light cavalry, chariots, and 10,000 infantry were suddenly caught in the embattled Jedi.

Li Xiaochen's face was calm, and he didn't seem to be in a panic. Seeing that his troops were besieged, he controlled his soldiers to resist desperately, trying to break out of the siege. At the same time, he took his own commander as the center, mobilized all the soldiers and horses, and left only two "phases" to guard the base camp. The rest of the men and horses led to the local camp to kill.

Qin Yufei couldn't help but shake his head again and again when he saw him take this move. How can the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces act recklessly? If he raises troops from all over the country in such a rash manner, he will easily fall for the enemy's scheme. Once you get into trouble, it hurts morale. The worst case scenario is total annihilation. What the hell is Li Xiaochen thinking? How could he make such a move?

If the golden jade cave looks at the fire, it will all be seen in your eyes. He sneered, not in a hurry to eliminate the cart, horse and soldier who had been trapped. The purpose is to let Li Xiaochen lead the army to come to the rescue. This will allow him to intercept halfway and defeat the Red Army.

While trapping the red force that was too deep, he divided his forces into three parts, and set up three formations on the path that the opponent must take to come to the rescue, in order to defeat the opponent's forces as much as possible.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiaochen's army, after passing the bridge, actually divided into two ways to forcibly demolish the two forts of Jinyu. For the trapped troops, they ignored it at all, and it had the intention of leaving them to fend for themselves.

Jin Yu was caught off guard by his unexpected move. However, Jin Yu reacted quickly and immediately integrated the three sections of the army into two sections and went to rescue his own artillery separately.

It's a pity that the iron cavalry and soldiers and chariots led by the commander of the red side were too powerful, and they quickly dismantled a cannon to pieces. By the time his troops arrived, the two armies were facing each other. The shouts of killing were endless. It's so realistic. One can even see the blood gushing out of each of the slain soldiers.

The two armies fought for a while, and one of Jin Yu's remaining cannons was finally successfully dismantled. But the price paid by Li Xiaochen's side is very heavy. In the case of chess pieces, he paid three soldiers, two soldiers and some other chariots, horses and cavalry, totaling more than 16,000 men. There were also a cart, a horse and two soldiers who were trapped at the beginning, and they were almost completely wiped out.

On the Jinyu side, only one group of light cavalry, two cannons and about 15,000 soldiers were lost.

At this point, Li Xiaochen is already at a disadvantage. However, he is not completely without advantages. The other side has no cannons, but there are still two on his side. After the Confucian generals and the boys cast spells, the cannons can bombard every corner of the battlefield.

Li Xiaochen used these two cannons to bombard the city built by Black from the Mizige area. In this city there are the generals of Jin Yu and the Praetorian Guard. As long as the city is blown up, the lord will have no place to hide. If you're lucky, you might be able to blow up the opponent's commander on the spot. Then the contest will be won.

It's just that Tang Yao and Qin Yufei on the side couldn't understand what tactics Li Xiaochen was playing. In order to dismantle the two cannons of the other side, so many sacrifices were paid. Is it worth it?
