The arrival of the Heavenly Barracks made Zhang Yu's pressure instantly drop a lot. Xue Bai from the Silver Wing Camp looked at the Heavenly Barracks that was approaching slowly and could only grit his teeth and walked a little further away. Even though the Heavenly Barracks was so slow and inhumane, it was so slow.
With a dangerous look, the man-eating tiger will always carefully hide its sharp claws.
The Silver Wing Battalion quickly reunited with the arriving Shenji Battalion, but they did not choose to attack the formation after the rendezvous. They were also very hesitant now.
First of all, the four passages at the entrance of the formation were blocked by the corpses of the merchants. It would be difficult for them to charge on the horses. Furthermore, even if they did charge in, the strength of the Hubao Battalion should not be underestimated, and so could Zhang Yu's personal strength.
Very powerful.
Moreover, the Hubao Battalion only needs to hold on for a while, and the Tianbing Camp will arrive in an instant. If the Tianbao Battalion and the Hubao Battalion cooperate internally and externally, the Silver Wing Battalion and the Shenji Battalion will probably be in danger.
So the atmosphere at the scene was very weird.
Everyone in the Shenji Battalion, Silver Wing Battalion, Hubao Battalion, and half of the Kaishan Battalion led by Su Le stared at the slowly advancing Heavenly Army Battalion.
The movement of the Heavenly Barracks was really unhurried. Although they were riding horses, they were not willing to gallop. Instead, they asked the horses to lower their heads and invite them in slowly.
From a distance, it seems as if this team is not here to participate in the battle, but rather for sightseeing.
It was a distance of five or six miles, and it took three sticks of incense to walk to the Tianba camp, and finally we reached it.
Upon seeing this, Su Le immediately ordered the soldiers from the Kaishan Camp to remove the corpses piled up at one of the intersections, and let in the people from the Tianbing Camp.
Zhang Yu stepped forward to greet you, laughed loudly and said: "Haotian, your speed really makes it easier for my brother to wait."
A man walked out of the heavenly barracks. He was wearing a green shirt and a square scarf. He actually held a folding fan in his hand. He looked not at all like a soldier who had been on the battlefield for a long time, but rather like a scholar in the court.
.
This man is the leader of Tianbing camp, Haotian.
Haotian smiled slightly and replied calmly: "I actually met the scouts you sent out on the way, so I hurried here. Fortunately, it's not too late."
"Hmph, even if you don't come, I will definitely be able to handle these two elite Shang kingdoms."
Zhang Yu's words are a bit boastful. With a Silver Wing battalion, his Hubao battalion can feed and live on, but with the addition of a divine machine battalion, the tragedy will most likely be his Hubao battalion's.
Haotian did not refute Zhang Yu's words. He just looked past Zhang Yu and looked around, wondering: "Huh? Who is this team?" Haotian was referring to the half of the Kaishan camp next to the Hubao camp.
Haotian judged that there must have been a battle on this mountain.
In a war of this level, it is generally difficult for cannon fodder battalions to participate. Even if they participate, they can only be cannon fodder in name only and will not have much impact on the battle situation. Even though there are key battles in history that have been rewritten because of cannon fodder battalions, but
That's not universal.
"This is the team of the Kaishan Camp," Zhang Yu was embarrassed to say the name "Cannon Fodder Camp". After all, Su Le helped him a lot. Zhang Yu is the kind of person who knows how to repay kindness.
, he will definitely take care of me, "I was able to discover the location of the Qibing Bagua Formation thanks to this little brother named Su Le."
"Su Le?" Haotian looked at Su Le. He was just a soldier, and he was young, only sixteen or seventeen years old.
Haotian has always understood Zhang Yu's character. Although this guy is a good guy, he still has the arrogance of a playboy. Very few people can make Zhang Yu so polite. Just now Zhang Yu said that he relied on this young man to find the formation.
Brother, he didn't believe it at first, but after observing Zhang Yu's attitude, he became sixty-seven percent convinced.
Of course, Haotian, like Zhang Yu, also doesn't believe that Su Le can really decipher the Eight Trigrams Formation, analyze the formation, and find out where the formation's eye is by relying on his own ability. Most of it should be due to luck.
Su Le nodded towards Haotian and said hello. He did not try to get close to Haotian just because he was a warrior. He, Su Le, did not have this kind of character.
It was this attitude that made Haotian even more surprised. He had never seen such a crazy person before. Even the leader of the Kaishan camp was respectful when he met him. He didn't expect that this soldier would be so crazy when he met him.
He was so calm in front of me, but he was somewhat capable.
Haotian was not angry because of Su Le's actions. He studied Confucianism and had a very good character. He himself was somewhat arrogant as a scholar, and he also understood that proud people must be proud.
As time passed slowly, more and more soldiers gathered.
When the soldiers of the Xia Army gathered, they rushed towards the center of the formation. If it was an elite battalion, they would stand above the formation. If it was a cannon fodder camp, they would be directly arranged to stay under the mountain. The treatment of the two is
It was completely different, except for the Kaishan Camp, whose soldiers were the only ones standing on the mountain with Su Le.
The reinforcements from the Shang Army were scattered several miles away, uniting into a dark half-moon shape with the Shenji Battalion and the Silver Wing Battalion as the center.
The atmosphere above the war was unprecedentedly solemn.
No one spoke, only the war horses occasionally neighed softly, but they were quickly stopped by the owner of the war horses.
In the battle last night, the battle line was stretched very long. After the teams of both sides came into contact, they could not fight for long before they stopped fighting due to changes in the Qi Bagua formation. But today, in order to seize the formation, all the armies of the Xia and Shang armies gathered
here.
Once a battle of this scale begins, even the strongest warriors will fall if they are not careful, not to mention the lives of ordinary cannon fodder soldiers. They can only put life and death aside to have any chance of winning in this kind of battle.
Survive a deadly battle.
Quiet, unprecedented quiet.
The war is about to break out.
At this moment, several drumming sounds suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.
"Dong dong dong..."
Hearing the sound of the drum, Su Le raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and said to Li Zhu and others next to him: "Don't panic, they are about to retreat."
Different from Su Le's reaction, all the Xia Army's soldiers were holding on to their spears with force. The joints of their fingers were bloodless due to the force of the snatch, and there were drops of sweat running down their faces. They thought this was a bulge.
The sound is the command to attack.
When the Shang army heard the sound of drums, it was obviously a different scene. After receiving the order to retreat, all the Shang soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Xia army with great vigilance.
Although the commander-in-chief ordered the troops to withdraw, when they withdraw, they will naturally face a question - will the Xia army allow them to leave smoothly?
Fortunately, the number of troops gathered here by the Shang army was not as small as that of the Xia army. The Xia army occupied the center of the formation and did not pursue it.
The commander-in-chief was determined to win this battle from the beginning, otherwise he would not launch an attack in the early morning.
From the beginning, the Shang Army had a considerable advantage. The combination of the Eight Trigrams Formation and the strangulation of the Martial Artillery Battalion had an astonishing effect.
However, the commander-in-chief of the Shang State did not expect that the Xia Army's position was so firm. They refused to give in on the land of Western Xinjiang. The two armies fought for a whole night. After the Shang Army completely took the lead, the first
Early the next morning, an elite battalion of the Xia Army actually occupied the center of the formation...
Hundreds of miles away, Li Buyi was lying on the ground, with a heavy look of fatigue on his face, and he sighed heavily. Just now, he had no choice but to order the withdrawal. He was not willing to lead the army to directly fight with the Xia army.
confrontation.
The base camp of the Xia army is at Tongde Pass in the rear. Even if the Xia army is completely destroyed, they can quickly pull out a new team in Tongde Pass. At the worst, the Xia army can still defend Tongde Pass.
And the Shang State's army... needs to cross the entire western border to get here. If they fight hard, even if they win the battle, it will still be a loss for the Shang State.
Falling short of success...
If it hadn't been for that damn Xia Kingdom's Tiger and Leopard Battalion occupying the center of the formation, he, Li Buyi, wouldn't have withdrawn his troops at all.
"It looks like what the teacher said. Although the Xia Kingdom has had bad luck in recent years, it still has a very profound foundation. However... let you struggle slowly. The Xia Kingdom has exhausted its strength and will eventually be destroyed." Li
Bu Yi turned around with an extremely confident expression and said towards Tongde Pass: "This is the pulse my teacher gave you."
…
…
Over the years, the Xia army has been suffering from battles with the merchant army. This battle was originally not favored by the world, but it turned out to be a comeback at a critical moment, forcing the merchant army to retreat, and in one fell swoop, the left, middle and right sides of Western Xinjiang were defeated.
Recovering it with all its wings can definitely be called a great victory!
After the merchant army retreated unwillingly that day, the entire Xia army's soldiers burst out with earth-shattering celebrations.
The camp leaders and soldiers are congratulating themselves on the victory, and they will naturally receive big rewards. The Xia Kingdom has always been generous with rewards for military achievements.
The soldiers congratulated themselves for having saved a life in this war and not turning into a cold corpse like those fallen comrades.
This victory indeed came suddenly, because just the night before, dark clouds still enveloped Tongde Pass.
Within Tongde Pass, the commander-in-chief and the counselors discussed countermeasures day and night, but they were unable to come up with any solution. As a result, at noon the next day, the merchant army actually retreated on its own initiative, which was beyond the expectations of many people.
This area of Western Xinjiang was considered to be saved, and the Shang army temporarily returned to its original front line and faced off with the Xia army again.
Before leaving, Zhang Yu identified Su Le as the acting camp leader of Kaishan Camp.
"This is an exceptional promotion. Although you are just a soldier, I believe that you have the ability to lead the Kaishan Camp." Zhang Yu admired Su Le very much. During the war, Su Le's commanding ability was even better than his own.
The strength has far exceeded the scope of a soldier, "I will find a way to cancel this word 'generation' for you!"
In this battle, the greatest military merit naturally went to Zhang Yu.
Although both of them knew in their hearts that the most important thing to break the formation was Su Le's suggestion, even if Su Le wanted to take this level of military merit, it was impossible.
