As expected, Qiu Yijun returned to the military tent before noon. Seeing Zhao Shun waiting inside, he was quite surprised and said:
"Have you finished reading the instructions now?"
There are two difficulties in the practice of military art. One is to interpret the tactics, and the other is to train real people. It is very simple to use puppets to march and form troops.
Monks who have never been exposed to this method often need half a year to complete the interpretation. For those who have been promoted from the military guard, the interpretation time can be shortened to March to April because they have a basic understanding in advance.
Zhaoyan's disciples are known as geniuses, and their understanding is better than others. They can often solve the problem in one month. If Qimen is there to give guidance, it can be even faster. It still took three or four days for Yuan Sui'er to master the art of military music by her side. Unexpectedly, one of the three of them actually solved it in ten days. Should he be said to be worthy of being a disciple of Zhaoyan?
Zhao Shun replied, "That's true." Qiu Xuejun immediately took a set of puppets to her and said cheerfully: "Now that you have solved the magic formula, you can take these twenty humanoid puppets and manipulate them." The method is very simple, just tap into the true energy."
"As I said again, hurry up as fast as you can. After you are familiar with the puppet army formation, come here again and let me check it. If you pass the test, I will directly recruit soldiers into the team for you. I am not a rigid person like Shen Hui. March Xiu During the practice period, if you complete the practice in advance, I will give you the opportunity to lead the army in advance!"
Zhao Shun felt that she was somewhat similar to the Aya Fish Demon King in some ways. They were both maverick and deviant. However, the Demon King regarded other people's lives as nothing, but Qiu Yijun was not like that.
Since Nie Hai was in charge of Yiwei's flag sect and there were few directors, Qiu Yijun must have been busy with many affairs. Zhao Chun resigned after receiving the things, not wanting to disturb him any more.
All the way back to the military tent, I passed by the patrolling soldiers.
Zhao Shun took out the puppets given by Qiu Yijun. They were all black and shiny, made of jade and animal bones, about the height of her arm, and the joints were rounded to facilitate the puppets changing postures. She couldn't help but recall the photos in the photo. The joints of the stone demon of Shengya are very similar to this little man.
According to what the other party said, the true energy was slowly transferred into it. The villain who received the true energy immediately came to life, stood up on the ground, and stared at Zhao Shun with his head without facial features.
Zhao Shun channeled Qi into the remaining nineteen puppets one by one. In the open space in the middle of the military tent, there was immediately a group of twenty black men standing upright, waiting for her to give orders.
The craftsman who made this thing must have a high level of skill, which makes the puppet's movements sensitive and instantly able to sense what the master of Qi is thinking, and then form an attack and killing formation like the military formation in Zhao Chun's mind. Guard formation.
"This puppet is connected to my mind. Strangely, others say that the difficulty in military training is not in puppet training."
She knew it well, and immediately understood why the second difficulty was directly related to real-person training.
The puppet has no intelligence, and the changes in its actions are only commanded by her, so cooperation should be the best.
But in the actual situation, each of the twenty soldiers had their own ideas. Zhao Wen had to explain all the important points to them in detail and act as a leader. As for the coordination of the formation, it was still up to the soldiers to familiarize themselves with and practice. It is difficult to say whether the military guard formation can be used to its fullest potential.
Therefore, the practice on the puppet can only be fed back to the commander's familiarity with the techniques.
"If you want to interpret for the soldiers and guards, you must first become proficient in it." The difficulties are still to come, and puppet training is just the basis for overcoming the difficulties. Zhao Xuan calmly sat down on the spot and asked the puppet villain to begin to follow the instructions. The magic formula she cast changed.
There are three types of military formations for attacking and killing: forceful killing, quick movement, and retreating to defense.
These names are all made simple and easy to understand. As the name suggests, the forceful killing is a cone-shaped formation. When standing in the formation, the commander's combat power can be greatly increased and the enemy's leader can be killed by force; the speed movement is the river-shaped formation, which increases speed to help chase the enemy; the return defense is the ring formation, using the formation's formation It forms a shield and is used for protection.
The commander cannot give timely orders during the war. Therefore, it is up to the military guards themselves to judge the situation of the battle based on the timing of the change of military guard formations, and then select the most suitable military guard formation to help the commander.
The first thing Zhao Xun practiced was forceful killing. This type of formation to enhance combat power was definitely the most preferred type among sword cultivators.
After using the puppets to set up the formation for several days, her familiarity with the killing formation has been greatly improved. In three or four days, she may be able to practice speeding.
But currently, there was another thing that made her curious. She even walked out of the military tent to watch.
The lower city gate of Minglu Pass is closed tightly. On weekdays, only a small gate on the left and right is opened and closed, leaving guards on duty for the monsters and spirits from Congzhou who come to sell goods.
Today, all the caravans going between the small gates on both sides stopped to listen to the forty-eight horns blowing simultaneously on the city wall. In the momentum of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking, the incomprehensible gate from below slowly rose upwards, and people sat astride it inside. The army on top of the giant beast is ready, and the killing spirit is strong!
"Ah, it's time again for the Qingwu Camp soldiers to go out and slay demons." Someone from the caravan sighed.
"The leaders are Shen and Chu, the two flag sects. It seems that the Dingping Guards are going out!"
Most of the medium-sized and above caravans have been inherited for thousands of years, which is older than the history of Minglu Pass. Moreover, the lifespan of monsters and spirits is longer than that of humans. Many of the officers and soldiers of Qingwu Camp are very familiar to them.
Shen Hui was at the head, and Chu Hunyi fell half a step behind him. When he waved the war flag in his hand, the rhinoceros-horned giant beast stepped on the ground and shook it. Anping Guard's 300 knights and thousands of soldiers fled forward quickly, and they were shocked. The yellow sand spreads to the sky!
As expected, the three people from Zhaoyan were kept by Shen Hui's side. Since it was their first time out of seclusion, their faces could not hide their excitement. Wan Ru, the calmest one, also had a sharp light in his eyes.
Zhao Shun had been watching them go away into the wasteland, his heart full of longing and longing. He turned around and found Qiu Yijun standing on the city wall. When he spoke, his eyes were still on the yellow sand that was getting away: "Why? , want to leave home?"
"Any general who joins the army will have this idea."
"It was there in the beginning, but not necessarily in the future." Qiu Yijun retracted his arm that was leaning on the city wall and gently shook it to shake off the dust, unlike other monks who cast dust-removing spells.
She glanced at Zhao Shun thoughtfully, then turned around and left neatly. What was reflected in her back was: "I will go to Anpingwei next month, so you can look forward to it."
Zhao Shun walked in the same direction with her, returned to the military tent at the Anping Guard Station, and continued to use the killing array on the puppet.
However, before the day for Anping Guard to leave the border, news of Dingping Guard's early return came.
It is easy to eliminate a single evil ghoul, but if you encounter a group of them, you will be entangled for a while. The soldiers of the two guards are all veterans who have been on the battlefield. The time to go out to slay the demons will generally be limited to six to eight days. If it is too short, it will not be completely cleared, and if it is too long, it will easily fall into the danger of lack of troops. middle.
Now Dingpingwei has only been out of the pass for less than three days. It is thought that something unexpected happened, so he returned to the pass in a hurry.
"Is it the one that Yao Shinan stabbed?" Qiu Yijun helped Shen Hui from Chu Hunyi's hand. In the past few years, it was rare for Shen Hui to return injured. She asked urgently, with anger in her tone.
"It's none of his business." Shen Hui had just been treated by a military Chinese medicine practitioner. Only the flesh injuries looked terrible, but there were not many injuries inside. "It was the negligence of Daxiong and I."
"I don't know how to kill people with a knife, so why are you covering up for them?"
Qiu Yijun put one hand on the handle of the knife, and two antelope horns appeared on his forehead. Shen and Chu knew that she was angry, and immediately explained in a hurry: "It's the old devil from ten years ago!"
