Although the way of battle formation has certain similarities with the way of chess, there are even some inheritances that will use the way of chess as a substitute for formation of troops when there is no good teaching environment.
For example, in chess, there are generals, horses, soldiers, and rooks, which are a manifestation of ancient battle formations. The thinking of the chess moves is often similar to the battle formations.
However, Li Ao and Fang Gongming really knew nothing about it and couldn't understand it.
Why did Meng Zhao want to play chess with He Wuji and specifically asked the two of them to watch.
"Could it be that the Dragon King of Beimeng loves to play chess and wants to recruit us while playing chess?"
Li Ao guessed that this was actually a very possible situation. He didn't think that Meng Zhao would look down on them. After all, Xu Fei, Shen Zhihang, and Mo Li were all taken over by him, and he was no different. , how could he be rejected by Meng Zhao?
In addition, in addition to their own military strategy, their elite soldiers are also a big bargaining chip. Together, the two of them have 10,000 elite soldiers. Wherever they are placed, they are a considerable force that cannot be ignored.
Therefore, wouldn't it be wonderful to mention this matter while playing chess, which not only shows elegance but also helps get things done?
Perhaps, this is also a common problem among nobles from aristocratic families. They do things too unsatisfactorily, and the clouds and mist surround them, making people anxious.
Probably this is the only place where Bai Shuai can beat Meng Zhao.
"I don't know, but we don't have to guess. Just wait for Meng Zhao to come over and see how he behaves."
He Wuji was not completely confident in dealing with Meng Zhao. After all, although he was confident, it was difficult for him to fight with two fists.
Furthermore, as a simple martial artist, he really wanted to experience the unparalleled martial arts of the Dragon King of Beimeng.
After all, after hearing about his legendary deeds for a long time, I will always be a little curious.
And from the momentum of Meng Zhao's surrender of the four holy envoys and the generals, it can be seen that his reputation was not in vain.
If you can understand some mystery from it, which will help you lay the foundation of a master, what's the harm even if you help the other party?
Like Si Peng, Xiang Qing and others, the reason why he worked for Bai Shuai in the past was just to pursue the path of a master.
However, as his martial arts has become more and more mysterious in recent years, his realm has become more advanced, and he has become somewhat sure of the path to becoming a master, unlike Sipeng and others who can only rely on external forces, so he has greater autonomy. .
If you have no desires, you naturally have nothing to ask for, and you don’t have to rely on others.
Even if he is willing, quitting the Divine Power Army at this time is still an option.
The three of them were chatting and waiting for Meng Zhao's arrival. Time that used to feel like it was flying by now was actually unprecedentedly slow.
He Wuji was lucky. Although he was playing chess, he was very determined. While dealing with Li Ao and Fang Gongming, he secretly sharpened his sword heart, refined the sword energy in his body, and raised his state to its peak.
Li Ao and Fang Gongming did not have such good concentration and patience. From time to time they looked outside the tent, but they could only withdraw their disappointed eyes again and again.
As the night got darker, suddenly, the three people in the tent heard a series of steady footsteps coming from outside.
Li Ao and Fang Gongming stood up one after another. The two iron-blooded guards were at a rare loss at this time.
He wanted to come out of the tent to greet her, to express his goodwill and get close to her, and to lay a solid foundation for joining Meng Zhao's sect in the future, but due to his friendship with He Wuji, he couldn't do it too obviously.
He Wuji didn't care about this at all and waved his hand.
"It seems that Meng Zhao and the others are here. You two can go if you want. You don't need to pay attention to me."
He Wuji was straightforward and said whatever he thought. He didn't need Li Ao and Fang Gongming to support him, nor did he have to have them on his side.
When he said this, Li Ao and Fang Gongming calmed down, looked at each other, understood each other's intentions, shook their heads, and sat down calmly.
Li Ao thought for a while and said,
"Heshi, you and I have known each other for a few years. I know that you are a pure person and not vulgar like us. However, we are not ungrateful people, so just stay in the tent."
Every time Zhengyi slaughters dogs, most of the losers are scholars. Although Li Ao and Fang Gongming made great use of He Wuji, relying on his unrivaled martial arts and transcendent status to gain a lot of benefits for themselves, over the years, there were also a few Share genuine emotions.
He Wuji nodded and said nothing more, nor expressed his gratitude. For him, these were not important.
Not long after, the curtains of the big tent were opened, and a group of people stepped into the tent. The soldiers who were originally guarding had no chance to report.
There were quite a few people coming in, including the four great envoys and the four great generals. In addition, He Xin, who was Meng Zhao's personal attendant, followed behind with a chessboard and a chess cup.
He Wuji and the others looked at the leader, Meng Zhao, and were all surprised.
However, I saw that this young man, who was originally unremarkable except for his appearance, now showed a completely different mental outlook from before.
When Meng Zhao transformed into Lu Yang and entered the Shenwei Army as the son-in-law of the Danchi clan, the three of them had also met him. The deepest impression of him was that he was handsome, low-key, and seemed gentle and charming, which was in line with that. As a disciple of a hermit master, he doesn't look too ambitious.
Now, Meng Zhao's appearance has not changed, but his temperament and style are completely different from the past.
I saw him walking like a dragon and a tiger, with a strong and majestic figure, his eyes were shining with electric light, and he was looking forward, his spirit was flying, and a strong and domineering aura was running rampant. There was a feeling that I was the only one in the sky and the earth, and everyone else had to crawl under his feet. of wild attitude.
It can be described as domineering and sideways.
If it weren't for the fact that they looked exactly the same, He Wuji and the other three would not believe that this person was the Lu Yang they had been with before?
This is really a very powerful character. He may not know much about his martial arts skills, but his acting skills convinced the three of them.
At least in the past, they didn't find any flaws or anything wrong at all.
Another thing that was very different from Meng Zhao in the past was that he was carrying a wooden box diagonally across his back, and it was unknown what was inside.
However, thinking about the evil soldiers breaking the limit, there is a high probability that they are evil soldiers, and I don’t know what their power is.
The three people had different thoughts, but their expressions were surprisingly calm and they did not reveal too many thoughts.
Meng Zhao also saw the three of them, laughed, cupped his hands, and took the lead in saying,
"Envoy He, General Li, General Fang, Meng Zhao are polite.
In the past, due to some special reasons, I concealed my identity and assumed the pseudonym Lu Yang. It is Meng’s fault. I apologize in advance."
Upon seeing this, the three people quickly returned the greetings without being too low-key, and at the same time they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Ao and Fang Gongming were even more delighted, feeling that this matter should be resolved satisfactorily.
After all, Meng Zhao had no intention of using force at all.
The two of them had already made a decision. They would surrender to Meng Zhao only after the game of chess was over. The other party would not reject them.
