"Yellow Turban Ming King Qin Yang, I am the Barbarian King Meng Huo. I just came to the Central Plains to see my brothers, and I saw your war letter. I know that your poisonous king rat can break my brother's coiled snake formation, so your war
I have decided not to accept the letter for my brother. But I also want to give you the next letter of challenge. I will set up a wild array for you to break. See if you have this ability. The bet remains unchanged. Who loses?
Even the other party’s little brother will never regret it. You don’t have to rush to agree, I will give you three days to observe my formation. After three days, if you don’t agree, you can quickly lead your troops home to farm. - Da
Meng Huo, king of the barbarians."
"Oh my god, what this guy wrote is too straightforward... Also, this is too wasteful..." Qin Yang looked at the thick pile of silk books on his desk with black lines on his head. Meng Huo's calligraphy
The writing was very large, so almost a dozen characters took up a whole piece of silk. If Mrs. Zhu Rong hadn't been careful, she would have marked "pages one, two" in small letters under each piece of silk. Otherwise, His Highness the Yellow Turban Ming King would have
You will be immediately confused by it.
Not long after Qin Yang had just issued a letter of war to Meng You, a scout reported that nearly 10,000 men and women had arrived in Meng You's barbarian camp. Before Qin Yang was ready to inquire carefully again, Meng Huo sent someone
Sent the gauntlet.
"The Coiled Snake Formation has just begun to look interesting, and yet another barbaric formation has been created. What are these barbarians going to do?" Qin Yang angrily pointed at the "War Letter" on the table and addressed the people in the golden dome tent.
The general said: "Do you have any good plans?"
Yan Yan hesitated for a moment and stood up and said: "Leader, there is something I don't know whether to say or not..."
Qin Yang spread his hands and said, "Is there anything you can't say? Anyway, you know the barbarian army best, and you have never spoken less of it to boost the enemy's morale, and this time is no different."
Yan Yan smiled awkwardly, and it was indeed what Qin Yang said. Ever since the Barbarian Army joined the war, Yan Yan had been saying that the Barbarian Army had extremely high combat power and was very difficult to deal with. The only time Yan Yan did not say anything was to let the Yellow Turban Army suffer.
He suffered a secret loss and almost lost two generals, Gan Ning and Ma Chao. However, despite this, Yan Yan still had to say something.
After Yan Yan stopped laughing, he coughed lightly and said: "Reporting to the leader of the alliance, our Yizhou Army once launched a large-scale attack in the southwest wilderness. At that time, my lord Liu Zhang received assistance from the empire and raised a total of forty-five troops.
Wan is prepared to regain the wilderness in one fell swoop and completely eliminate the hidden dangers in Yizhou."
"Oh? Then what?" Qin Yang suddenly became interested. He thought Yan Yan was going to say how powerful this wild formation was again. But he didn't expect Yan Yan to talk about such old events.
Yan Yan sighed and said: "At that time, our Han Empire was at its peak. It could be said that our troops were strong and well-prepared. Our 450,000-strong army set off from Chengdu at the beginning of summer. By the time of the Great Summer, they had almost conquered most of the wilderness.
, attacking the city and destroying it, destroying all the strongholds. All the way, the troops arrived at Jiaozhou City, the capital of the barbaric wilderness..."
"At that time, Meng Huo had just succeeded to the throne of the Barbarian King. Although he had little experience in facing enemies, he did not know where he learned the formations. He set up a large formation at the foot of Jiaozhou City, and the name was called the Great Wilderness Formation.
The general thought that our empire's army of 450,000 people and hundreds of generals were so powerful all the way, how could we be afraid of a large formation composed of tens of thousands of people? But in fact, that was a fatal mistake committed by our army.
mistake……"
"Is there anything strange about this formation?" Although Qin Yang had already guessed the result, he couldn't help but ask.
Yan Yan nodded, his eyes a little wandering, as if he was reminiscing about the past: "This wild formation has five gates. At that time, our army was divided into five groups, each with 80,000 elite soldiers. The last general led the five groups.
Wanjia soldiers are stationed outside the formation to provide support, ready to attack at any time to support all groups of troops..."
"On the day we charged into the formation, there were heavy clouds. Our five-pronged imperial army, totaling 400,000 people, marched together and fought from each formation gate. We thought that breaking the formation would be a piece of cake. But once the two sides fought, we found that what we originally thought was too simple.
…”
At this moment, all the generals in the tent were deeply attracted by what Yan Yan said. Even Guo Jia couldn't help but ask: "Could this wild formation be the legendary Qimen Battle?"
Can’t the formation be completed?”
Yan Yan glanced at Guo Jia in surprise, nodded and said, "Commander Guo is indeed knowledgeable and talented, and he hit the nail on the head. Yes, this wild formation is exactly the legendary Qimen battle formation!"
Qin Yang couldn't help but gasped when he heard this. Almost all of his knowledge about formations came from the formation master Xi Zhicai. Xi Zhicai once said that although there are many factions in the world's battle formations, they are truly lethal.
And the unpredictable battle formations are all branches of the Qimen battle formation.
The so-called Qimen battle formation is to integrate the entire formation into one, just like the battle formation formed in the trap camp at Fuyuan Mountain. It is ever-changing. It can block hundreds of people with the power of a few people, or it can be constructed to
It creates an illusion to confuse the opponent. Only those who are deeply involved in it can understand the horror of this strange battle formation.
According to Xi Zhicai, there will never be more than ten people in the world who can master the Qi Sect Battle Formation. Could it be said that barbaric people who don’t even practice fighting spirit can master this Qi Sect Battle Formation?!
After Yan Yan praised Guo Jia, he continued: "When I saw my 400,000 troops rushing into the formation like waves from a distance, I already had an ominous premonition in my heart. Because I found that almost all the people who formed the wild formation were
The barbarian soldiers and barbarian generals are all like confident hunters waiting for their prey to enter the net. However, among our men and horses, which are several times larger than the enemy's, we don't feel the slightest chance of victory."
Everyone nodded, and what Yan Yan was talking about was a special feeling possessed by military commanders who have been on the battlefield for a long time. No matter how many soldiers there are, or what the situation is. When the two armies are fighting, it seems that the outcome has been determined, and victory is about to happen.
Even if the side that is about to be defeated is temporarily in a weak position, people will feel an inexplicable momentum surrounding their heads. This is the so-called chance of victory. On the contrary, even if the side that is about to be defeated is powerful, there is always a sense of decline.
The sky above the army is the so-called defeat phase.
At first, Qin Yang did not believe in these illusory things, but in the constant battles, Qin Yang naturally discovered this pattern. Just like when he was fighting fiercely in the imperial capital and was surrounded by tens of thousands of imperial guards,
But he always had a will to be invincible and stubbornly believed that he could win. When he first saw Dong Zhuo leading his army outside the imperial capital, he had a vague premonition that he was no match for Dong Zhuo's army, so he led the army.
The soldiers hurriedly withdrew from the imperial capital.
"The war drums were beating, and our army launched a tidal wave of offensive. Initially, under the bombardment of our army's advanced crossbows and thunderbolt chariots, the barbarian army in the wild formation did suffer some casualties. However,
, when the barbarian army discovered that our army's offensive was fierce, they suddenly changed their formations. Invisible forces like fighting spirit instantly defended our army's thunderbolt chariot and crossbow offensive..." Yan Yan continued
said.
Speaking of this, Qin Yang couldn't help but think of the scene of Huang Tianying's huge rocks falling from the sky in Sheyuan Mountain and slamming them into the trap formation. At that time, the trap camp had set up a fighting spirit defense to withstand the raindrops of boulders. Gao Shun's eight hundred trap camp could do
If it were a barbarian army of 100,000 people, they would probably do better! After all, which force can have enough thunder chariots under its command to swamp an army of 100,000 people?!
"With no choice, our army could only launch a charge and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the barbarians. But when our soldiers roared and rushed into the formation, what awaited them was a brutal massacre!"
Speaking of this, Yan Yan's mouth twitched slightly, as if he was recalling the bloody scenes. After a moment, he continued: "The reason why I use the word massacre is because in this formation, whether our army is
Neither the galloping cavalry nor the heavily armored infantry offered any resistance. All most of them could do was either wait for the barbarian army to cut them off with their butcher knives, or wait for countless snakes, insects and beasts to kill them.
Swallow..."
"Looking back now, the Coiled Snake Formation set up by Meng You not long ago was just a corner of this wild formation. At that time, the little barbarian king Meng You was only in charge of one of the five gates of the wild formation. I have to say,
At that time, our army of the Han Empire was indeed an invincible army. Even in the face of this situation, it still showed no cowardice. With the lives of the three armies, two armies finally emerged after paying an extremely heavy price.
, broke through the two formation gates and rushed into the central general platform of the formation..."
"Huh..." Many generals in the tent let out a long breath after Yan Yan said this. Although they already knew the result, they couldn't help but feel sorry for the warriors who fought bloody battles and rushed into the central general platform.
They cheered quietly.
Yan Yan smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know if I am lucky or unlucky. At that time, I witnessed from a distance how these warriors who rushed into the general platform were brutally slaughtered. When my tens of thousands of troops rushed towards the central general,
When we took the stage, all of us thought that our army finally had a chance to win. But we were wrong, the center of the stage was actually a bigger murder trap!"
"What's in there?!" Qin Yang couldn't help but ask.
Yan Yan shook his head and said: "At that time, the central general platform was filled with black mist, and no one knew what was inside. But I could vaguely hear the miserable screams and frightened screams of our soldiers. During the battle,
Later, we were also able to see the fragmented remains of corpses at the original central general platform. Of the tens of thousands of soldiers who rushed into the central general platform, from the most prominent generals to the soldiers who charged into the battle, no one survived!"
At this point, Yan Yan closed his eyes and said as if in silence for the dead soldiers: "In this battle, our Yizhou army outnumbered the imperial army by 450,000, and less than 100,000 could have returned to Yizhou alive. If not
Our army and people in Yizhou are united in defending the city. I am afraid that after that battle, the entire Yizhou will fall into the hands of the barbarians..."
There was silence in the golden dome tent, and everyone was immersed in the plot told by Yan Yan for a long time. They knew that what Yan Yan said was true, and they also understood why Yan Yan said these words today. But, could it be that
Just because of this, will the coalition of princes retreat because of the reappearance of the wild formation?! In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Qin Yang.
"What a wild array..." Qin Yang looked solemn and his eyes flickered.
"Leader, please put the overall situation first before deciding whether to accept Meng Huo's letter of challenge!" Yan Yan sighed.
Qin Yang nodded, glanced at the generals, stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Send my military order and tell the Barbarian King Meng Huo that I can accept this letter of challenge! But I will not start breaking the formation until a month later! In addition...immediately...
Send people to sneak into Xuchang, summon military advisors to return to the camp quickly, and then send fast horses to rush to Lingbi day and night. See Lu Bu, the allied vanguard, and ask him to quickly send Gao Shun, who has fallen into the camp, to rush to help our army!"
