More than 3,000 beheaded soldiers were killed, and the sound of killing was loud. At first glance, it looks like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, rushing deeper and deeper.
"Send the order, close the formation immediately." Shen Tuguan struck the ground with his long sword, his voice cold.
Bang bang.
The openings of the circular formation that were originally torn apart in the south quickly merged again. The third battalion of champions raised their shields and guns to keep the following enemies out of the formation.
"Kill!" In the center of the formation, the three thousand spearmen prepared by Shen Tu Guan were all waiting in formation. They set up their spears and pushed forward with an angry roar.
The beheaded soldiers who rushed into the formation were not prepared for the sudden appearance of the spear formation, but soon, with the spirit of a dead soldier, they continued to attack regardless.
"prick--"
The captain of a champion battalion shook his sword and roared loudly.
Click, click.
Dozens of beheaded soldiers who rushed to the front row were instantly stabbed through their bodies and fell to the ground coughing blood.
In the latter, he quickly raised the shield in his hand and tried to block the advancing spear array.
But the circular formation with three layers inside and three layers outside was extremely cunning under the command of Shen Tu Guan. In conjunction with the spear array, the innermost layer of Donglai sword shields quickly set up shields and pressed forward, slashing forward with their swords.
Not long after, the beheading soldiers rushed in, killing more than a hundred people at once.
"Stab again!"
The dense spears pressed forward step by step, taking advantage of the distance to kill more and more fiercely.
At the outermost layer of the circular formation, the brave champion battalion, although small in number, held on firmly. Every time one person died in battle, another would quickly take his place. For a moment, there was blood splattering everywhere and sounds of pain.
…
"Military advisor, something bad happened! Three thousand beheaded soldiers were... eaten by the Donglai Army's circular formation."
"have eaten?"
"The beheaded soldiers rushed into the enemy formation and were unable to get out. They were surrounded and killed by the Donglai people."
Ling Su narrowed his eyes, "In this battle, isn't it my duty to encircle and suppress the enemy in Dongling?"
The general who reported the message lowered his head and did not dare to answer.
"Shentu Guan has a well-deserved reputation. If I'm not mistaken, this is an array within an array, quite similar to an ancient array."
After pondering for a while, Ling Su had a somewhat cruel look on his face.
"Pass my military order, first use long-range shots to contain the enemy's formation. Don't get too close. The large hole in the formation that was torn open earlier is most likely a flaw deliberately exposed by Shen Tu Guan. It's like a beast's mouth. If you wait, If you rush in, you will be eaten by the ambush inside."
"In addition, let the people from the logistics battalion quickly mobilize the city assault vehicles."
"Military advisor, city attack vehicle?"
"Exactly, the soldiers were not allowed to go, so they used city assault vehicles to ram away the enemy formation. Now, surrounded by forest fires, Shen Tu Guan set up this formation, which was nothing more than a temporary measure. His real purpose was to escape from this battle. If If you are anxious, you will fall into the trap.”
"No matter the time or location, it is favorable for me, Dongling. And if Shentu Guan's adventurous plan has no effect, it will not be long before it collapses. In addition, our real purpose is not just Shen Tu Guan."
Ling Su smiled again and pointed in the east direction, "The ambush on the Lord's side is the real highlight. Just watch, if the consumption continues, Shen Tu Guan will not be able to bear it. If he gets anxious, he will completely annihilated."
"The strategist's brilliant plan!"
Ling Su exhaled, without any joy on his face. In fact, he was extremely unhappy now. He had a great advantage, but was beaten like this by Shen Tu Guan.
Fortunately, there is still a big chance.
…
Click.
Three thousand beheaded soldiers were swallowed up in the formation. Even if they burst into death warrior spirit, they still could not reverse the situation of the battle.
Shen Tuguan could see clearly that even the champion battalion he single-handedly led, in order to annihilate the more than 3,000 beheaded soldiers, four to five hundred people died. This still creates an advantage, so it can be seen that the Dongling people's combat power cannot be underestimated.
"General Shentu, the enemy troops are no longer charging."
"I saw it."
Shen Tu Guan raised his head, trying to find the location of the enemy's base camp. He discovered that the enemy general commanding this battle was not an ordinary person.
If he hadn't used this ancient formation, I'm afraid his champion battalion would have been crushed to the point of morale collapse.
"General, do you still want to open the door?"
"No, the enemy won't be fooled. Send the order, close up the formation, and focus on defending first."
Shen Tuguan knew very well that under the current situation, he could not continue to waste money. After thinking about it, he turned his head and stared in the east direction. According to the agreement with his lord, after leaving here, he would march eastward in a roundabout way.
"My lord, over there——"
As soon as he said this, Shen Tuguan suddenly looked shocked and suddenly stopped his voice. He raised his head again, his eyes showing worry.
"Let me ask you, what would happen if the lord knew that we were trapped here?"
"General Shentu, my lord will definitely bring troops to rescue—"
"Fell into a trap." Shen Tuguan clenched his fists.
"My lord has come to rescue us. If the people of Dongling lay an ambush on the way... pass my military order to take the champion's battalion A as the main position, loosen the connection, and transform into a long snake formation!"
While guarding, when Shentu Guan was free, he would personally teach. The tens of thousands of people under his direct lineage were familiar with various formation changes.
At this time, it is like a large circular formation connected by a long snake. As the connection is loosened, the formation changes and it is ready to become a long snake formation.
Not far away, Ling Su could see clearly, and his eyes suddenly became silent.
Just now, he asked his soldiers to focus on containing long-range shots in order to delay time. But now, Shen Tu Guan was so bold that he actually dared to change his formation in front of him while his own army was not advancing.
The Long Snake Formation is famous for its mobility. If they were ignored, and the encirclement and suppression soldiers had dispersed, it was impossible to say that they would really be able to rush out.
"Military advisor, what should we do?"
"Let me think about it." Ling Su took a breath. Ruo Shentu Guan rushed out with the third battalion of champions. It is very likely that Zuo Shiren's ambush plan will be broken in one fell swoop.
"Military advisor, if you don't want to surround us first——"
"Send my military order!" Ling Su said with a cold face, "The army moves forward to encircle and suppress, smash the Donglai people's formation!"
…
Under the night, the fighting that had just slowed down for a while suddenly became raging again.
Shen Tugu had no expression on his face, raised his head, and calmly looked around at the enemy troops rushing in like a tide.
He held the sword high and made a sound like thunder.
"Tail biting!"
"General Shentu has an order, the three battalions of champions, bite the bullet and form a formation!"
Just like a long snake, suddenly, countless Donglai soldiers lined up with shields and raised their swords, not caring about fighting. With the Champion A battalion as the head and tail, they connected again regardless of casualties.
Many soldiers of the Champion Battalion who were seriously injured simply left their formation, wielded their swords and raised their shields, and rushed forward to kill them, giving the army behind them time to bite their tail.
"Kill!" Shentu Guan's eyes were about to burst.
The huge circular formation, after the soldiers of the Champion Battalion fell one by one, could only be connected at an incredible angle, surrounding many enemy troops who rushed forward in the formation.
"Taotie! Devour the enemy!" Standing in the center of the formation, Shen Tu Guan raised his arms and shouted angrily.
"Roar!"
Countless champion battalion soldiers then let out huge roars.
"kill--"
…
