"Yang Yichen, the guard of Dongling Pass, is appointed as Generalissimo Li Jing of Shi'anmin: Your Excellency has made Shi'anmin the name, and you can't bear to be ruined because of the battle between the two armies. Therefore, the veteran is willing to take Dongling Pass as a bet and win or lose with you. The veteran has set up a period of time under the Dongling Pass, called the 'Bronze Flag'. If you can break the formation, the veteran should offer the city pass with both hands, if you can't break the formation, please retreat the way you came, and avoid fighting. I don't know what I mean?"

Li Jing immediately read Yang Yichen's handwritten letter, and his face showed a slight look of contemplation.

The messenger who wrote the book was a middle-aged man with a white face and a long beard, and when he saw Li Jing silent, he sneered and said: "My Yang Shuai gave instructions when he came, saying that if Marshal Li felt that he was not sure to break the formation, he would come directly to attack the city, and it would be okay for everyone to directly fight each other!"

Li Jing looked up at the messenger a few times, and asked with a smile: "I don't know what the official position of this messenger is in Dongling Guan?"

The messenger said proudly: "In the lower Dongfang Bo, it is an insignificant one under Yang Shuai's command. ”

Li Jing smiled: "It turned out to be General Dongfang, long admiration." It was inconvenient to reply immediately, so he asked the general to bring back Yang Shuai's original book, and presented it to Yang Shuai on his behalf, and the marshal would first go to Dongling Pass to watch the battle, and then decide whether Yang Shuai should make this bet. ”

Dongfang Bo saw that Li Jing was young, but he was so old and steady, and he didn't fall for his own agitated plan, his heart couldn't help sinking, so he had to step forward to take back the letter, and after bowing his hand, he turned around and got on the horse and left.

The army continued to march, and within a few days came to the Dongling Pass, where it joined forces with Wei Chigong's vanguard battalion.

This time, Wei Chigong did not go out of the battle recklessly, and he reported after seeing Li Jing: "Master, then Yang Yichen made a very strange formation outside Dongling Pass. The disciple went to see it once, but it was difficult to distinguish the depth. Therefore, he did not dare to make a mistake, and only waited for the master to deal with it. ”

Li Jing smiled: "It's rare to be so steady this time. But it has grown a lot. ”

After a day of rest, Li Jing did not order troops, but only led a few generals in the battalion to the city to watch the battle. Three miles outside the city, a large array with a radius of more than ten miles had already been placed, shrouded in a layer of murderous gray mist, and all that could be seen clearly was a towering copper pillar in the center of the large array and a huge black flag flying in the wind on the top of the column.

"What a killing array!" Li Jing sighed softly. He had personally experienced the Ten Peerless Formations laid out by the Ten Heavenly Monarchs of the Sect of Interception, and he had also seen the Zhuxian Array and the Ten Thousand Immortal Arrays of the Tongtian Sect Master, and the Eight Gate Lock Divine Arrays that he was good at were also unique in the world. Compared with these formations, Yang Yichen's bronze flag array was far inferior in subtlety and mystery. However, he ingeniously integrated the Daomen formation, the military battle array, and the news of the organs, and laid countless traps and killing moves according to the three talents, five elements, gossip, and nine palaces, and there were 100,000 male soldiers lurking in it, scattered and gathered under the cover of the formation, and came and went.

With his current cultivation and the treasures he carries, it is not impossible to destroy this array with thunderous means, but the 100,000 horses inside will be killed by the pond fish and not one of them will be left, but this huge cause and effect makes him feel like a rat thrower. If you want to command your men and horses to attack and break through the formation by normal means, even if it is difficult to distinguish between the reality of the formation, even if it can be successful. His men and horses are bound to suffer heavy casualties. For a while, Li Jing was a little hesitant about what choice to make.

Just as he was looking at the big array and pondering, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance from far to near, and Li Jing raised his eyes. I saw that it was the Dongfang Bo I had seen before.

Dongfang Bo, who had already changed into a general's costume and a gold-backed knife in his hand, came to Li Jing's approach, and said with a smile on the horse: "Marshal Li, you should have seen the formation laid out by my Yang Shuai." But I wonder if you have a resolution?"

Li Jing smiled and said, "Well, since Yang Shuai proposed this gamble in order to avoid the misery of life." How could Ben Shuai dial his kindness, so he asked General Dongfang to reply to Yang Shuai. This gamble, Ben Shuai should be off!"

Dongfang Bo was overjoyed and said: "Once the word is out, the horse is difficult to chase!"

Li Jing said indifferently: "Ben Shuai has no regrets. My army is tired all the way, so I will repair the army for three days, and after three days, I will come to break the formation!"

Dongfang Bodao: "In this way, the last general will return to Yang Shuai, and three days later, he will only wait for the marshal in the array!"

After Li Jing and his entourage returned to the camp, the generals came to ask Li Jing about his plan to break the formation.

Li Jing seemed to have a mind at this moment, and he called down: "Qin Qiong listens to the order!"

Qin Qiong hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "The last general!"

Li Jing said: "This marshal has just decided that Yang Yichen has invited reinforcements all the way, and he should rush to Dongling Pass tomorrow, and then you will lead a group of men and horses to intercept and kill, this time whether we can break the formation is on the main general of the reinforcements, you have to use more thought." ”

Qin Qiong said solemnly: "The last general will be ordered!"

Early the next morning, Qin Qiong led 3,000 troops from the camp to the north, found a dense forest on the choke road to Dongling Pass and ambushed him, and then scattered his horses to find out the news.

After about half an hour, Tanma reported that a cavalry had come on the road, numbering about five hundred, but there was no banner, so I don't know where the reinforcements came from.

Qin Qiong heard that there were not many soldiers and horses on the other side, so he didn't pay attention to it, but just waited patiently in the forest. A moment later, I saw smoke and dust billowing from the road, and a team of men and horses galloped towards me.

"Drumming!" Qin Qiong gave an order, and the spring thunderous war drums exploded, and the three thousand Dingshi troops shouted out of the woods, blocking the way of the men and horses.

"The enemy will stay, this road is not passable!"

"Who is bold enough to dare to block the path of Childe!"

Qin Qiong's shouts and the shouts of the opposite general sounded in no particular order, and the two of them each looked at each other, and they stayed on the spot together.

The opposite side shouted a young general with silver armor, white horses and silver spears, only born with a face like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a color like a flower of spring dawn, a smile on the lips if grease, and a cold star with cold eyes.

After being stunned for a moment, the young general came to his senses before Qin Qiong, shook the five-hook flying spear in his hand, and shouted: "Hugh go and look at the gun!"

Qin Qiong also came to her senses, waved the Lu gun in her hand and hurriedly returned it.

The two have their own marksmanship, a silver spear like the wind swinging catkins, snow dancing pear flowers, a golden gun like a dragon shocking the sky, the spirit snake spit letters, the two war horses fought more than 50 times, failed to distinguish the winner.

Qin Qiong was fighting to rise, and suddenly saw the young general on the opposite side throw a look at him, and suddenly woke up and said: "I only care about testing marksmanship, but I almost missed the master's big thing." Shizun is really clever, with this person coming, Yang Yicheng's bronze flag array can be broken with a single hand. ”

Thinking of this, his marksmanship suddenly revealed a flaw, and he was deceived by the young general's silver spear and lightly picked it on the shoulder, but he had Tang Yi's armor to protect him, and the tip of the gun could not enter.

"It's amazing!" Although he was not injured, Qin Qiong's face showed a look of panic, and he screamed in his mouth, and left after turning his horse into the wilderness.

The young general shouted, "You just wait here, and see me capture this thief by myself!" and then chased after him, leaving only the men and horses on both sides to stare at each other with wide eyes, and for a moment they did not know whether they should start fighting.

The young general chased into the woods, but saw that Qin Qiong had already turned back the horse's head and looked at him with a smile. He urged the horse to hurry a few steps, stepped forward and smiled: "Cousin, long time no see, has it always been good?" )
