Zhang Linhu has crossed the stone field and is now standing on a fallen armored machine man. He looks at the more than a thousand disciples of Tianshi Dao in front of him, all with yellow scarves wrapped around their heads, blue costumes, and holding hands. The swords were rushing towards the Jin army's formation more than a hundred steps away. The tops of the two square formations of Heyi were about four miles apart, and behind them, every hundred steps or so, there was a new large shield square. The formations are retracted one after another, and they look like two open arms. Anyone who wants to enter through the opening in the middle is at risk of being attacked from both sides.
Next to Zhang Linhu, a personal guard named Shun Cai, who was also his messenger, was waving the command flag and directing the sergeants to charge forward while whispering: "Brother Huzi, shall we charge?" Is it too fast? And wasn’t it originally agreed that we would only attack the two square formations on both wings?”
Zhang Linhu laughed: "Their phalanxes at both ends, as well as the dozen or so phalanxes retreating in the middle, have long been empty. Think about it, they have three to four thousand people out now, how can any of these phalanxes still be there?" Where are the troops? Even if there are follow-up troops to fill in the line, but the battle was like this, I didn’t see a single soldier of the Jin army to rescue them. In this battle, Senior Brother Li had already told me that the Jin army soldiers It’s less, only about half of what we have, and we simply can’t afford it.”
Shun Cai suddenly realized: "So, these Jin troops are just empty formations here, but they actually have no soldiers?"
A murderous look flashed in Zhang Linhu's eyes. He looked back behind him and said, "Look, these archers are already in close combat with He Tianping's general swordsmen. If nothing else, they won't be used for half an hour. These bows and arrows will not be used for half an hour." The whole army will be annihilated, and the Wuling barbarians who attack in the front line will only die faster. The Jin army's front troops are probably all here, even if the phalanx behind is filled with reserve troops, Firstly, there can't be too many people, and secondly, we don't dare to attack. We try to attack. It would be best if we can succeed. Even if it fails, we can withdraw to this line and wait for the follow-up troops to come up. However, no matter what, we will Attacking instead of defending is a meritorious service. Vice-leader Xu has always admired those who dare to take the initiative, and this time will be no exception."
Shun Cai nodded, still a little worried: "But if the Jin army also adds thousands of troops and our troops cannot attack, what if we give them the opportunity to counterattack?"
Zhang Linhu smiled and waved his hand: "You kid doesn't understand military aircraft. Now that the Jin army is in the shield formation, they can't see clearly what's going on outside. They can only see the thick smoke billowing. The attacking troops never came back, and we This force broke out from the oblique thrusts, and then dared to take the initiative to attack their phalanx. It did not only attack the Crane Wing phalanx at both ends, but directly attacked from the entire line, including attacking the six or seven phalanxes in the middle and back. , This shows that we have sufficient troops and are well prepared. We know that we only have more than 2,000 people, but they may think that we have at least over 10,000 elite soldiers."
Shun Cai laughed: "Yes, that's the truth. They don't know our true and false intentions. If we dare to attack, they will definitely be scared and retreat. Even if they don't retreat, they will only dare to stick to their formation and not dare to fight back. .”
Zhang Linhu sneered: "This is the Crane Wing Formation. It sacrifices mobility for defense. I don't think we can rescue casually between the formations. The counterattack just now was because they thought it was a rare opportunity and knocked down our front line in one fell swoop." The military troops and the armored machine men thought that the opportunity had come and wanted to defeat us on all fronts. Unfortunately, they made a wrong calculation and luring them to attack was just a trick of Deputy Leader Xu and Senior Brother Li. We intervened here and cut off The connection between them is not just to watch the show, but to continue to work hard and chase them!"
Shun Cai nodded: "It's just that, with these two thousand troops, can we really penetrate their defenses?"
Zhang Linhu smiled and pointed ahead. He saw a tide of Tianshi Dao troops rushing towards the front four to five miles wide. In front of each Jin army's square formation, there were hundreds of Tianshi Dao sergeants forming a formation. Form, attack it with all your strength. The difference from before is that now you can no longer see the big halberds sticking out of the shield array. There are only lonely, bare shield arrays lined up on the periphery, and you can't clearly see the reality inside. .
Shun Cai suddenly understood: "Oh, even the halberds are gone. It seems that all the sergeants inside were chased out. Well, I did see more than a thousand Jin army halberds just now. Fighting outside, covering and cooperating with the Wulingdong barbarians, there are more than a thousand archers, plus more than a thousand Dongman warriors, their front army has killed 4,000 people, and now there are at most 1,000 people in the formation Hit it."
Zhang Linhu's eyes flashed coldly: "Yes, normally speaking, when we rush within a hundred steps of the enemy, the archers will have already fired their arrows. Just like when He Tianping and others charged just now, at a distance of a hundred steps, Those archers were about to fire arrows, but now, our men and horses rushed to a place less than fifty steps away from their broken formations, and no arrows were shot. Hey, this shows that they really have no strength. These shield formations are probably just there to scare people, the Jin army should have all withdrawn to the central army behind, which means that the dozen square formations on this line should all be fake!"
Shun Cai smiled and said: "Okay, then let's knock down these shields and break these false formations. Then after our brothers behind have dealt with the besieged Jin army, they can follow us and attack the Jin army's main formation together." Alright."
Zhang Linhu said with a smile: "Yes, as long as we make a contribution first, they will follow up and steal the credit. Even Senior Brother Li will press his troops to follow up and attack. But no matter how hard they advance, if they defeat Jin The great achievement of capturing their phalanx belongs to us, so now, don’t hesitate any more, the whole army will come to me and break through the Jin army’s defense line.”
As he spoke, he waved the serrated sword in his hand fiercely and was about to step forward.
Shun Cai quickly said: "Then the five hundred archers still left in the rear army should also be pressed in? Brother Huzi, you just said that these archers should be pressed in this line to sweep the formation. In case of a counterattack, they can also Provide cover."
Zhang Linhu laughed loudly: "I need a bird's cover. Now the Jin army has made it clear that the formation is empty and there are no people. What else do you need to cover? Come on me and attack as fast as possible. The faster we move, the fiercer it will be." , then the Jin army will escape faster. If they are lucky, they can follow their broken troops and pursue them, and they can in turn charge back to the Jin army's main formation. Maybe even Liu Daogui's head can be recovered from it. Let’s take it off!”
