Chapter 201 Grab a big one and give a small one? This rhythm is cool!
Although Deng Zhi has not been exposed to Yuanyang Formation for a long time.
but......
Deng Zhi admired this kind of small force from the bottom of his heart for its ability to combine both good and bad, deploy deep echelons, and have both offensive and defensive formations.
Moreover, as long as he had time, he kept thinking about the Yuanyang Formation and its changes, how to attack and defend more effectively, and even thinking about how to break the Yuanyang Formation.
But for such a long time, he has not thought of a way to break the Yuanyang Formation, especially a way to defeat the Yuanyang Formation head-on under the terrain conditions that are conducive to the Yuanyang Formation's attack.
Precisely because he couldn't do it, when Deng Zhi heard that someone could defeat the Yuanyang Formation head-on and kill more than a dozen of their brothers, he was more surprised than angry.
Who is it?
You can actually do things you can't do!
With doubts, Deng Zhi ran all the way.
"Sima!"
Deng Peng pointed to the crowd not far away: "Look, it's right there."
Deng Zhi hurriedly raised his eyes and looked up.
really.
In a corner not far away.
Hundreds of mandarin duck troops are besieging a small team.
It seems that some people in this wolf cavalry team have abandoned their horses and are fighting as infantry against the Yuanyang Formation head on.
Since it is in a corner, the combat range is only an open sector.
As a result, the Yuanyang Formation could not besieged, but could only fight head-on and forcefully fight head-on.
This is true frontal toughness!
hiss-!
Deng Zhi couldn't help but gasp.
Wherever he looked, the Yuanyang Army's attack was not only easily defused, but was even counterattacked by the opponent, successfully breaking through the defense and killing the leader of the team.
"Damn it!"
Deng Zhi cursed secretly.
but......
It was not that he was cursing secretly because the Yuanyang Formation was broken and a person died.
It was because the crowds of people blocked the opponent's entire process of breaking the formation, causing him to fail to notice how the opponent successfully broke through the defense of the Yuanyang Formation.
"Walk!"
Deng Zhi waved his hand and ran quickly.
Deng Peng and others quickly caught up.
"Deng Sima is here."
"Quickly, let Sima go in."
"Get out of the way!"
"..."
Wow!
The team moved out of the way.
Deng Zhi walked forward quickly and finally got a clear look at the other party.
But see...
He is a tall man with a resolute face, sword-like eyebrows and tiger eyes, a wide mouth and a beautiful nose. He wears an iron helmet and iron armor. He holds a spear in one hand and a shield in the other. There are seven or eight corpses in front of him, all of which are fatal with one move.
, the wounds are all at the vital point.
Next to him, the left and right sides are lined up in order, but they are scattered and hierarchical.
The first two levels are the same as the generals, all holding spears and shields, while the back is dominated by spears and crossbows. On both sides and behind, there are two cavalry, one holding a spear and the other holding a knife, all of them are ready.
The total strength is fifteen people.
Although Deng Zhi didn't know what kind of formation the opponent had set up, he could see the shadow of the Yuanyang Formation in it at a glance. It was also both offensive and defensive, had the characteristics of a stacked formation, and had a certain strategic depth.
And because the opponent's first team has fifteen people and has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, the offensive and defensive capabilities of the soldiers and horses in front of them are stronger than the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Yuanyang Army's first team.
In addition, the opponent is in a fan-shaped area like a corner. If the Yuanyang Formation wants to gain strong attack power, it is natural to use the Three Talents Formation to completely spread out the Yuanyang Formation to fully respond to the enemy.
However......
The opponent's formation is better at defensive counterattacks.
Even on the verge of death, he can unleash powerful fighting power.
Therefore, the Yuanyang Formation was always unable to attack by force, and was even often succeeded in sneak attacks by the opponent.
Deng Zhi stepped forward and stared at the opponent with bright eyes: "I am Xinye Deng Zhi. Can the enemy generals be named by each other?"
The commander of the formation replied loudly: "A certain person is Gao Shun of Taiyuan!"
"Gao Shun?"
Deng Zhi was sure that he had never heard of this name.
but......
Judging from the opponent's formation method, he must be a wizard who is proficient in military formations: "General, this formation seems to be similar to that of our Yuanyang Army. I wonder where you got the formation?"
"snort!"
Gao Shun snorted lightly, but there was no nonsense: "To be honest, this formation is based on observing your battle methods and copying them based on what I have learned in my life. I have to admit that the person who created this formation is really a hero.
.”
"pity......"
Gao Shun raised his head and glared at Deng Zhi, not hiding his contempt at all: "Such an exquisite formation, but you are unable to exert its true power. Instead, someone learned the essence of this formation."
Boom!
Like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
Deng Zhi was stunned in place like thunder and lightning.
Can you copy it?
Although, Deng Zhi understood that this formation was simple and easy to learn.
But it is not that easy to truly master its attack, defense, and changes.
Even though Deng Zhi studied day and night and practiced every day, there was still no guarantee that he would be able to learn the essence of this formation.
Unexpectedly!
He was actually hit by a wolf, and he copied the formation just by looking at it with his naked eyes.
What's even worse is that the Yuanyang Army, which he has been practicing for several months, is actually not as good as this formation that he copied and arranged in a hurry.
If the other party was not someone who was proficient in formation warfare, how could he have reached such a terrifying level in such a short period of time.
Deng Zhi took a deep breath, and a feeling of love for talents arose in his heart: "General, are you willing to submit to my Highness? I, Deng Zhi, will recommend you. With the general's talents, it will not be a problem to get the position of Sima."
Although Deng Zhi is just a Sima at the moment, in fact, with his ability, he can already be a captain. However, Deng Zhi is reluctant to leave the Yuanyang Army, so he is still just a Sima in the Army.
After all, the Yuanyang Army is a special type of military unit. Inside, they are all tough soldiers, and outside they are captains. In the Yuanyang Army, they can only be military commanders at best.
but......
According to Deng Zhi's achievements so far, he will be the captain of the Yuanyang Army sooner or later, so for Deng Zhi to say this now, it is not nonsense.
certainly!
The most important thing is.
King Hongnong dared to employ people and was good at employing people, but he still lacked generals.
Based on the fact that Gao Shun is good at setting up formations, Deng Zhi is more than 80% sure that he can help Gao Shun win such a position.
"How about it?"
Deng Zhi believed that the conditions he offered were very tempting to Gao Shun, who was on the verge of death: "I wonder, general, if you are willing to do it?"
Never thought...
Gao Shun blurted out without thinking: "I, Gao Shun, have thanked you for your kindness, but I, Gao Shun, do not seek fame, fortune, and wealth. When I was in Bingzhou, Lu Bu was kind to me, how can I, Gao Shun, let him down!"
Deng Zhi liked loyal people, so he was not angry but happy at Gao Shun's answer, but his face remained calm and showed no signs of it.
"General, would you rather die than surrender?"
"That's right!"
Gao Shun did not hesitate: "If you die, you will die. What's wrong with that!"
Deng Zhi couldn't help but nod in praise: "General, you are indeed loyal and loyal, I admire you, but you are willing to die for Lu Bu, have you ever thought about the brothers behind you, are they willing to do so?"
"The treacherous minister Dong Zhuo brought disaster to the country and the people. After deposing the emperor and killing him, God was angry and people were angry. However, Lu Bu swore to him as his father and son, helping Zhou to do evil and acting against nature. This time he dared to lead troops to attack King Hongnong. It is really an act of disloyalty and injustice!"
"General!"
Deng Zhi knew that a head-on confrontation with Gao Shun would definitely cause greater damage.
He simply focused on attacking people's hearts, stimulating the Wolf Cavalry soldiers with words, in order to collapse the opponent from within: "You can refuse to submit to His Highness because Lu Bu is kind to you, but can you still force others to die with you?"
At that moment, Deng Zhi glanced at Gao Shun, then glanced at everyone, and said loudly: "Now that Lu Bu has been defeated and fled, and the three Allied armies are besieging Luoyang, the traitor Dong Zhuo will die sooner or later. If you don't surrender at this time,
When will we wait?"
"I, Deng Zhi, can assure you that if you surrender at this time, your past sins will be forgotten. Those who are willing to join the army will be incorporated into the cavalry battalion. Those who are unwilling to join the army will be given travel expenses home."
"this......"
In an instant, Gao Shun's wolf cavalry team was shaken.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. The hand holding the weapon seems to have been forcibly relaxed by some force.
Why die if you can live?
Gao Shun, who has experienced many battles, naturally understands Deng Zhi's sinister intentions.
He stared, gritted his teeth, and shouted sternly: "This thief is trying to shake the morale of our army. Don't let yourself be deceived!"
Deng Zhi interrupted without hesitation: "Don't worry, everyone, I, Deng Zhi, keep my word. If you put down your weapons, I will never hurt your life."
"ah!"
Gao Shun was furious and hysterical: "How dare you, thief!"
Phew~~
He charged forward with an arrow, the war spear in his palm pointed at Deng Zhi's face, and pierced it.
As Deng Zhi dodged sideways, the palladium stab behind him shot out from behind, making a clear clang, and stopped the war spear with precision.
The angry Yuanyang Army was about to take action, but was stopped by Deng Zhi: "Everyone stop it!"
More than ten spears were aimed at Gao Shun, but they stopped in an instant and did not thrust out.
Deng Zhi waved his hand and said softly: "To show our sincerity, our army will retreat ten steps. Those who surrender will be asked to walk out on their own. I promise that I will not harm you at all."
"Sima, this..."
"retreat!"
Before Deng Peng could speak, Deng Zhi gave a sonorous order.
The Yuanyang Army retreated slowly.
one!
two!
...
Nine!
ten!
Previously, Gao Shun had looked down upon this young officer. He always felt that he had little combat experience and his understanding of the Yuanyang Formation was only at a relatively elementary stage.
But......
At this time, Gao Shun completely overturned his previous understanding of Deng Zhi.
Although this man is young, his scheming is very deep.
After all, the formation you copied can only be used in a corner to face hundreds or thousands of mandarin duck troops with the smallest attack surface. With this attitude, you can better resist.
But his retreat not only shook the determination of the Wolf Cavalry soldiers to fight, but also put their formation in an extremely passive situation. They did not dare to attack, and they could not retreat. They could only be trapped here and wait for death silently.
After all, if you lead your troops and rush out, determined to fight to the death, you will definitely be surrounded by the Yuanyang Army, and you will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. With this small number of soldiers and horses, you will not be able to survive for a moment.
This is not retreating at all. It is clearly a very clever way of using retreat to advance, killing people and killing people.
Looking around at the soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit, Gao Shun understood that the opponent had won. This man's strategy was ten times better than his own.
"I surrender!"
A wolf rider dropped his weapon and ran out like a hare.
Deng Zhi nodded affirmatively: "Congratulations, you have turned from darkness to light."
If one person takes the lead, there will immediately be a second one.
"I surrender too!"
"I surrender!"
"..."
Hooray!
In just a few seconds.
Eleven of the fifteen-man team surrendered.
Although the other four people persisted, Deng Zhi was no longer afraid of Gao Shun's formation.
After all, with a stacked formation against a stacked formation, his advantage in military strength has exceeded that of Gao Shun. Even if he fights head-on, the opponent has no ability to fight back.
A major feature of the Yuanyang Formation is that it can combine the odd and the right, and it has a certain strategic depth. Its stacked formation combat method is sustainable.
However, the copying formation established by Gao Shun had an advantage in terms of military strength, and its strategic depth was deeper than that of the Yuanyang Formation. He was able to form multiple assault echelons and carry out serial breakthroughs. This was a method of breaking up the overlapping formations with stacked formations.
now.
Even Gao Shun himself couldn't help but feel discouraged.
The battle spear in his hand suddenly became loose, and the previously high fighting spirit disappeared.
Turn around.
Gao Shun glanced at the four of them and said softly: "You surrender, don't lose your life because of this."
The young man beside him raised his eyes and said: "But Junhou, what about you? General Lu is kind to you, and you can repay it with death. How could you not be kind to us, and how can we not repay you with death!"
Gao Shun let out a long sigh and felt as if he was dead: "Captain Hao, I remember you are only fourteen years old this year, right? At such a young age, you have become a squadron commander. Your future will be limitless. Why should you die for me? It's not worth it.
.”
Team leader Hao snarled: "Whether it's worth it or not, you don't have the final say, but I have the final say! It was you who saved me and brought me to join the Wolf Cavalry. I have only been fighting with you for one year.
You have been extremely kind to me by raising the team formation rate in an exceptional way."
"Die!"
Captain Hao took a deep breath and said sonorously: "We will die together. Even on the road to hell, we will have a companion. You will still be my military lord, and I will still be your subordinate."
The two people beside him echoed:
"That's right, if you want to die, let's die together!"
"Let's charge again, kill one to make up for the capital, kill two to earn one."
"Yes, Quan should avenge his dead brother."
Phew~~
Deng Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This is not about seeking revenge, it is clearly about throwing yourself into a trap!
The corner of his lips raised slightly, revealing a hint of sinisterness. At the same time, he lowered his voice and ordered: "They are all loyal people. If they come to fight, their lives must not be harmed. They must be captured alive."
Deng Peng nodded: "Don't worry, Sima, we will definitely not hurt their lives."
"kill-!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four people in the corner let out an angry sound.
They carried their weapons and fought bravely. Although they were hitting pebbles with eggs and moths flying into the fire, they were highly respected.
Deng Zhi also gave the order: "Kill!"
Hundreds of mandarin duck troops swarmed up in an instant, knocking away their weapons, banging their shields against each other, and knocking them unconscious with their knife handles, without causing any harm to their lives.
Three times, five times and two times, all are solved.
Although Gao Shun was superb in martial arts, he could not withstand the skilled cooperation of the Yuanyang Army. He did not survive three rounds before his spear was held up by the Boring Palladium Hand. The Tengpai Hand knocked him to the ground. Before he could turn over, he was surrounded by more than ten soldiers.
Became an Arhat.
Deng Zhi exhaled with satisfaction: "Tie them up, tie them all up for me, don't let them commit suicide."
Deng Peng patted his chest and assured: "Sima, don't worry, I can just leave this matter to you."
