Chapter 1535: Five sons are united
"Report...Zhang Liao has led his army to catch up again, and is now less than ten miles away from our army."
"What?"
All the generals of the Han army looked shocked. Zhang He even grabbed the spies and shouted: "How many people are coming from the Qin army?"
"About 40,000 riders."
As soon as they heard that 40,000 cavalry were coming, the Korean generals immediately exploded.
"It's over. Our army is a mixture of infantry and cavalry, but the Qin army is all cavalry. Once it retreats, I am afraid that it will be overtaken before it retreats into the city."
"The nearest city to our army is at least ten miles away, but the Qin army's pursuers are less than ten miles away from our army. With Qin Qi's marching speed, the distance of ten miles can be reached very quickly, and he can't escape even if he wants to."
"The terrain here is wide and open, which is most suitable for cavalry operations. However, our army is a mixture of infantry and cavalry. Although the number is twice that of the Qin army, we will definitely not be an opponent fighting here."
"It's neither an escape nor a fight. What on earth should we do?"
The generals of the Han army could not help but be anxious. No one expected that after Zhang Liao had been defeated for a while, he would dispatch more troops and horses to continue the pursuit. This pursuit also put the Han army into a dilemma.
"enough."
After Han Xin gave a loud shout, he said coldly: "In the midst of a war, you are in disarray. How unbecoming is this?"
Seeing that Han Xin was still calm and composed, the generals felt a little more at ease. Zhang He stepped forward and asked in a deep voice: "My lord, what should we do now?"
"there is always a solution to a problem."
A solemn look flashed in Han Xin's eyes, and he said calmly: "It is impossible to retreat. If we are overtaken during the retreat, the situation will only be worse.
Send the order, change direction, and form a formation on the spot. The Qin army's cavalry battle was fierce and unstoppable by ordinary formations. Jun Yi immediately deployed eight gates to defeat the army.
I want to break the military formation with eight gates here to meet Zhang Liao's cavalry. "
"No." Zhang He shouted.
Following Han Xin's order, the 80,000 Korean troops immediately stopped marching and divided into eight parts in an orderly manner, quickly forming a Bagua-shaped formation on the plain.
Dong dong dong...
Forty thousand Qin cavalry came in droves, their iron hooves stamped on the ground, shaking the ground so hard that it couldn't help but shake grains.
"Report, General, Han Xin did not continue to retreat, but stopped, formed a formation on the spot, and prepared to confront our army."
Hearing what the spies said, the generals were overjoyed. Yu Jin smiled and said: "Not only did Han Xin not expect that our army would come after us again, but he actually prepared to form a formation to fight on the spot. The military advisor is really a master of things."
Guo Jia laughed and said: "Our army is all cavalry, and if we are caught up during the retreat, the Korean army may be in danger of being annihilated. Stopping and forming is the only way to counter our army."
Upon hearing this, all the generals of the Qin army looked joking. This time the Qin army brought a total of 40,000 cavalry, and they fought on the plains.
If the infantry met the cavalry on the plains, it would take at least five times more cavalry to compete with it. However, the strength of the Korean army was only twice that of the Qin army. It is undoubtedly a fantasy for a mere 80,000 infantry and cavalry to fight against 40,000 cavalry.
"Han Xin has never been defeated so far. He must be outstanding in his own way. Please don't be careless, generals." Guo Jia warned.
"Don't worry, military advisor."
Zhang Liao nodded seriously, and then ordered: "Attack at full speed."
"promise."
Zhang Liao would not underestimate Han Xin, but he did not think that under such circumstances, Han Xin could still rely on infantry to avert danger.
But after seeing the eight gates breaking the army formation, Zhang Liao's idea was shaken, and the other generals also showed serious expressions.
This is really an array that you will feel is extraordinary at a glance.
The Qin army fought infantry against cavalry several times:
In front of Hulao Pass, Xue Rengui used infantry to resist the Xiliang cavalry.
At the foot of Liupan Mountain, Qin Hao also fought against the Yuanmeng cavalry with an infantry force.
The Qin army was able to successfully accomplish this precisely because they mastered the Longmen Formation, a formation that could effectively restrain the cavalry.
Han Xin's formation was somewhat similar to the Dragon Gate Formation, but obviously different. This naturally made all the generals think of the Dragon Gate Formation, thinking that it was Han Xin's own competition modeled after the Dragon Gate Formation, and for a while they were extremely wary of this formation.
"Does the military advisor know this formation?" Zhang Liao asked.
After observing it for a while, Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "Although this formation looks like a dragon gate, the formation technique is 80% similar to the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation. It should have been set up by Han Xin after imitating the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation."
When Zhang Liao heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked quickly: "Since the military advisor knows that this formation is not the Dragon Gate Formation, but comes from the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation, is there any way to crack it?"
After Guo Jia pondered for a while, he shook his head and said: "The eight-door golden lock formation is easy to break. The eight doors are: Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Death, Jing, and Kai.
If you enter through the Shengmen, Jingmen, or open the door, it will be auspicious; if you enter through the Shangmen, Jingmen, or closed door, you will be injured; if you enter through the Dumen, or the Death Gate, you will die.
Therefore, you only need to attack people from the Shangsheng Gate in the southeast corner and go out from the Jingmen Gate in the west. The eight-door Golden Lock Formation will be in chaos and will be destroyed without a fight.
However, although this formation was modified from the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation, it is not completely the same. The positions of the eight gates have been tampered with by Han Xin. All eight gates are death gates and none of them are life gates. If you use the original method to crack it, you will definitely fail. undoubtedly. "
Seeing that Guo Jia had no way to break the formation, Zhang Liao felt a little disappointed and said in a deep voice: "Since we can't break the formation by skill, then we can defeat it with force.
Where are Xu Huang and Yu Jin? "
"The general is here." The second general stood up and responded.
"The two of you each lead five thousand crossbow riders, and bring enough arrows. They will detour to the left and right sides of the formation, and rely on the power of the powerful crossbows to continuously fire arrows into the formation to consume the enemy's vitality."
"promise."
[Ding dong, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Yu Jin are all present at the same time, activating the combo skill "Five Sons Concentric". 】
[Five sons unite: There are five tigers in Shu, and there are five sons in Wei. If we work together, there will be no rival. This is a combination skill of the five good generals. At least three people must be present to trigger it.
Effect 1: During the battle, when three people join forces to fight against the enemy, all people have +2 force, four people have +3, and five people have +4.
Effect 2: When fighting with the army, if one of the five sons serves as the chief general and three people are present, the chief general will have command +2, four persons will +3, and five men will +4; if one of the five sons is not the chief general, the chief general will have command +1;
Effect 3. After this skill is activated, it will increase the combat power, morale, and marching speed of the entire army... The more people present, the greater the increase in the army. 】
[Ding dong, 'Five Sons of One Heart' effect 2 is activated. Since Zhang Liao is the main general, and Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Yu Jin are present at the same time, Zhang Liao's commander +2.
Zhang Liao's basic command is 97, Raid +3, Five Sons Concentric +2, and the current command has increased to 102. 】
"Damn it, the five good generals' combo skills have been activated. Zhang Liao must have encountered Han Xin."
At the same time, Qin Hao from Huguan, after receiving the system prompt, immediately guessed that Zhang Liao must be facing Han Xin.
One update guaranteed, there will be more later, but it may be later.
