Chapter 353: The inside should be combined with the outside, and it will be broken in one drum
This young general is none other than Qin Qiong's cousin Luo Cheng. Although Li Jing accepted Qin Qiong as an apprentice and cultivated him carefully, he did not interfere too much with his luck, so Qin Qiong was still assigned to Youzhou for accidentally injuring people's lives as he should have been a few years ago, and was able to meet his aunt's family.
For more than a year in Youzhou, Qin Qiong helped his uncle Luo Yi cut off the brothers Wu Kui and Wu Liang sent by the imperial court to restrain him, and he was deeply valued by Luo Yi. Cousin Luo Cheng also has a close and respectful relationship with his cousin and Qin Qiong's martial arts.
This reunion of brothers after a long absence is naturally overjoyed. After briefly saying goodbye to each other, Qin Qiong talked about the "Bronze Flag Array" in front of him.
Luo Cheng smiled and said: "Cousin, your master can even count me to come today, it's really amazing, and after this battle, I will definitely meet and ask for advice in person." As for the matter of the Bronze Flag Array, cousin, don't worry, this time Yang Yichen sent someone to invite my father to come to Dongling Pass to help in the battle, and my father said that the important task of border defense should not be neglected, so he sent his younger brother to come instead. Daddy has made it clear that he is coming, and now that the Great Sui is exhausted, he wants the younger brother Ming to help and break the formation secretly, and afterwards he will follow his cousin to Jiangdu to crusade against the faint king!"
Qin Qiong was overjoyed, and discussed with Luo Cheng in detail, before pretending to urge the horse to escape from the woods, and led the 3,000 men and horses back to the camp.
Luo Cheng's work efficiency was extremely high, and he didn't know what he said in front of Yang Yichen, so he went out that night under the pretense of patrolling the camp, quietly came to the door of the Dingshi military camp, and shot a book of arrows in.
The battalion gate officer did not dare to specialize after seeing the arrow book, and hurriedly came to the Chinese military tent to present Li Jing.
Li Jing took down the letter tied to the shaft of the arrow. When I unfolded it, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "The bronze flag array is broken!"
The generals were puzzled and asked, and Li Jing showed the letter in his hand to the generals for a week. It was a detailed formation map of the Bronze Flag Array, which clearly marked the arrangement of the organs in the formation, the arrangement of troops, and the left path technique.
Now that the formation map was in hand, Li Jing immediately divided his troops and sent generals. He arranged for four roads to attack the big formation from four sides, Qin Qiong, the main general of the east road, Luo Shixin, the main general of the east road, Wei Chi Gong, the main general of the south road, and Cheng Yanjin, the main general of the west road, Pei Yuanqing, the main general of the west road, Xie Yingdeng, the deputy general, and Wang Bodang, the main general of the north road. Adjutant General Dongfang Yumei. How to move after each group enters the battle, how to crack the mechanism, and how to engage the enemy. Detailed instructions were given in accordance with the formation diagram.
After the arrangement was completed, Li Jing said: "You wait for tomorrow to put the people in order in your headquarters, don't remember the method of breaking the formation." The day after tomorrow, we waited outside the four gates of the bronze flag array early in the morning. Ben Shuai will enter the battle first to destroy the bronze flag, missing the center of this big array. The formation cannot be changed randomly. You only need to see the bronze flag disappear outside the battle. Immediately wave your troops into battle!"
All the generals responded in unison: "The last general will obey the order!"
In the blink of an eye, on the third day, Li Jing didn't ride a horse, and walked leisurely Shi Shiran to the north gate of the bronze flag array, looked up at the huge copper flag, and said to himself with a low smile: "Your flag is also majestic, but it is not as effective as my flag after all." ”
As he spoke, a small black flag appeared in his palm, and it shook in the wind and became more than a foot long. With him a light smack on the ground with a flagpole. The endless water element power gathered under his feet, transforming into a crystal clear lotus flower with a diameter of one zhang. Holding his body up, he slowly floated in towards the inside of the formation gate.
Li Jing used the "Xuanwu Soap Carved Flag", which was almost equivalent to cheating, and all kinds of ambushes in the bronze flag array were naturally floating clouds for him. He drove all the way to the ground under the bronze flag, which was guarded by twenty-four archers, and when he saw Li Jing coming, he hurriedly opened his bow and set up arrows, and shot down one by one the magic arrows specially used to deal with cultivators.
Li Jing smiled at this, and the Xuanwu soap carving flag waved lightly, and a huge blister contained all the arrows in the air and the twenty-four archers in the banner fight, and floated away lightly with a gust of wind.
He pointed to the ground under the bronze flag with his hand, and the ground that was as solid as King Kong suddenly turned into a black swamp, and the flagpole sank to the ground, and in an instant, along with the big flag on the top, disappeared into the black swamp. The black swamp quickly turned back into hard ground, and the huge bronze flag disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace.
With the disappearance of the copper flag, the gray fog that shrouded the copper flag array dissipated instantly, and the people and horses hidden in various parts of the formation through the gray mist were clearly exposed to broad daylight.
"Kill!" the eight-member generals at the gate of the formation on all sides shouted in unison, leading the troops into the formation. Along the way, they avoided ambushes from various agencies and killed the defending Sui army, whose morale had collapsed like ice. The four armies clashed back and forth in the formation, and in the blink of an eye, a large and well-organized formation was torn apart.
Yang Yichen, who was presiding on a high platform in the array, was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly said to Luo Cheng, Xue Shixiong and Dongfang Bo behind him: "I don't want Li Jing to break the old man's bronze flag formation so easily, for today's plan, I can only fight to the death to repay the country!"
The three generals responded in unison: "Oh, I am willing to fight to the death with Yang Shuai!"
Before the words fell, he saw Luo Cheng take a shot in his hand, piercing Xue Shixiong's throat first, and then penetrating Dongfang Bo's heart with a backhand shot.
"Luo Cheng, how dare you rebel!" Yang Yichen saw this scene, and he didn't know that today's defeat was all on this person, and he couldn't help but hate it.
Luo Cheng laughed and said, "Yang Guang's faint monarch, the son should have turned against him a long time ago!"
Yang Yicheng hurriedly raised his knife to parry, after all, it was difficult to defeat Luo Cheng's excellent marksmanship, and he fell into the wind just after more than ten times.
Luo Cheng used a style of "cold plum turui", and the silver spear conjured five spear heads, which were lined up in the shape of plum blossoms and stabbed head-on.
Yang Yichen hurriedly raised his knife to seal the portal, but Luo Cheng's sixth shot stabbed from the center of the five spearhead phantoms, and he was killed on the spot with one shot to seal his throat.
The bronze flag was broken, Yang Yichen died, and Dongling Pass immediately went down without a fight.
After Li Jing was promoted to the Shuai Mansion, Qin Qiong led Luo Cheng to see him.
"The last general, Luo Cheng, has seen Marshal Li!" Luo Cheng also saw Li Jing's methods with his own eyes on the high platform in the formation, and knew that the young man in front of him who seemed to be a few years older than himself was really an extraordinary person, so he immediately restrained his arrogance and came forward to salute in a proper manner.
Li Jing said with a smile: "General Luo is Shubao's closest relative, but Shubao is a disciple of Ben Shuai, speaking of which, everyone is a family, so there is no need to be so polite." This time the bronze flag array was broken, and General Luo made great contributions, and the commander would like to thank the world army on behalf of him. ”
Luo Cheng hurriedly said a few words of humility, and then expressed his willingness to serve under his command and go to Jiangdu to crusade against the tyrant.
Li Jing pondered for a while, and then pondered: "General Luo's marksmanship is superb, and if he can get your help, this commander is welcome without any will." It's just that Ben Shuai calculated that Ling Zun would have a catastrophe in the near future, and the general must return to Youzhou immediately to ensure that Ling Zun is safe. ”
When Luo Cheng heard this, he was still a little suspicious in his heart, and he couldn't help but show hesitation on his face.
Qin Qiong knew that Shizun had always been right in his words, and said in a hurry: "Since this is the case, my cousin must not delay, if my uncle has a mistake because of your hesitation for a moment, it will be a lifelong regret!"
Luo Cheng shuddered when he heard this, and said: "It's about my father, as the saying goes, 'I'd rather believe what I have, not what I don't have'." What's more, this Li Jing has extraordinary means, and what he said will not be false. ”
After thinking about this section, he didn't stay any longer, and after hurriedly saying goodbye, he went out and ordered the five hundred soldiers who accompanied him and quickly returned to Youzhou. (To be continued.) )
