Mu Guiying, who was holding a telescope, saw the Tang army's military formation, and his eyes suddenly widened with shock and disbelief.
When Qin Hao was studying the Dragon Gate Formation at home, she had also watched from the sidelines. She had some superficial understanding of the Dragon Gate Formation, so she couldn't believe that Li Shimin actually laid out the Dragon Gate Formation.
You must know that even with Xue Rengui's guidance, Qin Hao has been studying the Longmen Formation for a period of time, and Li Shimin did not rely on anyone's guidance, but relied on memory and information to review this top-notch formation. This formation achievement
It’s simply terrifying!
"A variable has appeared." Mu Guiying said to herself with a solemn look.
Qin Liangyu's eyes lit up on the side, and he quickly reminded: "Aying, you can take advantage of uncle's bag."
Mu Guiying reacted immediately and quickly took out a tips bag from her arms, which was given to her by Jia Xu before leaving Luoyang.
Before leaving, Jia Xu told Mu Guiying that if everything goes well in this pursuit, there is no need to open the kit. If something goes wrong, this kit can help the army reduce casualties to a minimum.
Mu Guiying was a little confused about what he meant, so he asked Jia Xu: "This is already the situation. Does Li Shimin still have a backup plan?"
Jia Xu smiled and replied: "Li Shimin is a tycoon. You will never know what his trump card is until the last moment."
At that time, Mu Guiying felt that Jia Xu was thinking too much. After all, it had come to this point. What other trump card could Li Shimin have? If he had any, he would have taken it out long ago.
What Mu Guiying didn't expect was that Jia Xu got it right again this time. Not only did Li Shimin have a trump card, but he also turned out to be the Dragon Gate Formation.
Thinking that Jia Xu had already anticipated his enemy, Mu Guiying couldn't help but begin to look forward to the content of his tips and tricks, but when he opened it, he found that there were only four big words written on it:
Soldiers are noble, divine and quick.
"What does this mean?"
Mu Guiying was a little confused and couldn't understand what Jia Xu meant.
The Longmen Formation has certain restraint on cavalry. It is obviously not that easy to break the Longmen Formation deployed by 50,000 Tang army elites with 30,000 cavalry.
If we attack forcefully at this time, both sides will suffer losses in the end, so we should attack slowly, but why does Jia Xu want to fight quickly?
Not only Mu Guiying couldn't understand Jia Xu's intention, Qin Liangyu, Hua Mulan and other female generals also didn't understand.
"Is it possible that Mr. Jia guessed wrong?"
"It is possible that Li Shimin never revealed the Dragon Gate Formation, and this bag of tips was left before the war. Unless Mr. Jia had the ability to predict the unknown, he would not have known in advance that Li Shimin would deploy the Dragon Gate Formation."
"That's right..."
The girls discussed each other's words.
Qin Ji, who was among the male generals, looked thoughtful.
"Could it be?"
An astonishing idea appeared in Qin Ji's mind, and he immediately stood up and said to Mu Guiying: "Madam, please give the tips to General Zhang Liao quickly, otherwise things will change if you wait too long."
"General Qin Ji, did you find anything?"
Qin Ji looked around at everyone, as if he was hesitant to speak. After Mu Guiying understood it, he immediately came up to her, and Qin Ji started talking in her ear.
"What."
Before he finished listening, Mu Guiying exclaimed and said quickly: "Quickly, give this bag of tips to Zhang Liao as quickly as possible."
At this time, Mu Guiying suddenly realized that the tip bag from Jia Xu was not given to her at all, but was given to Zhang Liao through her hand.
At the same time, the Qin army attacked.
Zhang Liao was using a telescope to watch Xu Huang and Zhang He command the cavalry, slowly wearing down the effective strength of the Longmen Formation.
Xu Huang and Zhang He each led seven thousand cavalry. After rushing to the two wings of the Longmen Formation, they still did not enter the formation even though Li Shimin was close at hand.
Although Li Shimin was in an undefended state at the center of the formation, anyone who knew the Longmen Formation knew that it was just a way to lure the enemy into the formation. If he really entered the formation, it would be difficult to get out.
The main reason why Xu Huang and Zhang He did not join the formation was because they knew that Longmen Formation contained hidden murderous intentions and therefore did not dare to enter the formation easily. The main reason was to execute Zhang Liao's orders.
Zhang Liao was not prepared for a head-on confrontation from the beginning, so he did not directly launch a general attack, but asked Xu Huang and Zhang He to harass the two wings of the Tang army.
What Zhang Liao didn't expect was that Li Shimin's methods were so powerful that he instantly turned 50,000 Tang troops into mourning troops, and also set up a 50,000-level Dragon Gate formation.
With the combination of the Ai Army and the Longmen Formation, relying on only 30,000 Qin troops, there was no guarantee of victory, but Zhang Liao still did not change his order.
Although the development of the current situation is far beyond Zhang Liao's expectations, it does not mean that the previous order was wrong.
The defensive power of the Longmen Formation is indeed strong, and it can also restrain the cavalry, but the prerequisite is that the cavalry must enter the formation.
Based on the Qin army generals' understanding of the Longmen Formation, and knowing that there was danger in the Longmen Formation, it was naturally impossible for them to take the initiative to enter the formation.
After all, the formation is dead and cannot move, but people are alive.
If the cavalry does not take the initiative to enter the formation, then the Longmen Formation will be like a turtle shell. It has enough defense but not enough offense, so it can only be passively beaten, and it is difficult to cause damage to enemies outside.
Zhang Liao's strategy was very simple. He relied on his own bows and crossbows to have a longer range than the Tang army, and used horseback shooting from outside the formation to gradually wear down the Tang army's existing strength in the Longmen formation.
The Longmen Formation of the Tang Army was divided into ten small formations. Thousands of shields were placed in front of the formation to protect against the Qin Army's arrows. However, this alone could not protect all the soldiers, and the Qin Army's crossbows
This is the group of people.
"Li Shimin, your Dragon Gate Formation is really powerful. I, Zhang Liao, can't break it, but I can still defeat you without breaking the formation." Zhang Liao said to himself with a smile.
Although the Qin army's strong bows and crossbows were sharp, they could not break the Tang army's shields. However, if the projectile method was used, the arrows could still be shot into the Longmen formation, but the accuracy was naturally greatly reduced.
Under Zhang He and Xu Huang's turnaround and ejection tactics, the Tang soldiers who had no shields to defend themselves were killed by the Qin army's crossbow arrows before they had time to dodge, but the number was not large.
Of the 14,000 arrows fired by the Qin army in each round, about 10,000 hit the shield. Only 4,000 arrows could threaten the Tang army. However, their accuracy was poor. Only about 10,000 of the Tang army were actually shot.
Nearly two hundred people.
Fourteen thousand arrows could only kill 200 Tang soldiers, accounting for only one 250th of the Tang army.
Judging from the data alone, the Qin army could completely annihilate the Tang army with 250 rounds of arrows.
But the fact is that even if it was done, it would be impossible to kill as many Tang troops as Liao soldiers, and the Qin army did not have that many arrows at all.
Zhang Liao saw that Zhang He and Xu Huang's army fired four rounds in a row, consuming 56,000 arrows, but only killed less than a thousand Tang troops. He felt a little dissatisfied with the efficiency of killing the enemy.
"Report...to General, Mrs. Mu sent someone to deliver Military Advisor Jia's ingenious plan."
