Chapter 206: The world's famous generals, the battle to become famous! (asking for monthly votes)

Yuwenhua rode his warhorse forward and circled around, but he couldn't find a place where the cavalry could rush in. Yuwen Tianxian also noticed the arrangement of the battle formation -

Outside the chariot and crossbows, there is a layer of large areas of poisoned iron spikes.

Then, inside the iron spikes, between the carriage and the situation, a large crossbow bed was laid out, all with steel spikes inserted in them, facing outwards, and a rotating crossbow was arranged on it, connected to the machine with a rope. When a person touched the rope, the crossbow would rotate and fire in the direction of what was touched.

Yu Wenhua's expression suddenly changed and he looked at Yu Wen Tianxian.

The calm general stared at the arrangement of the [Chariots], [Crossbows], and [Poisonous Spikes] for a long time before saying, "This is my fighting method. In just one use, I have already incorporated what I am good at into his army formation."

"Relying on the river behind, chariots, and crossbows, the infantry's advantage is fully amplified, and the cavalry's tactics of flanking and detouring are offset... I have never seen such a formation before."

Li Guan stared straight ahead.

As expected, Yuwen Tianxian was calmer and more solid than the opponents that the Queyue Formation had faced before. The cavalry galloped on the left and right wings, ready to find the flaws of the Queyue Formation. At the same time, the heavy infantry with shields slowly moved forward.

Spearmen, swordmen, and archers are all behind the shield.

Yuwen Tianxian's tactics were like a rolling boulder covered with blades, although slow, it was heavy in momentum and extremely domineering. A general like Yuwen Tianxian was of average standard among famous generals in all aspects, but when put together, plus his personality.

【No mistakes】!
It can be said to be a nightmare-level opponent for novice generals.

That's why Yuwen Lie felt at ease to leave Yuwen Hua to him.

Li Guanyi swung his right hand down suddenly.

[Que Yue Formation] fired a volley of arrows, but they were specially made with bows that fired small soft arrows. In fact, it was not a special use. Apart from the 500 private soldiers originally from the City Lord's Mansion, most of them were young and strong men who were forced to go up the mountain. To put it bluntly, it was considered impressive if they could pull the bow and not shoot at their own people.

The five hundred people did not take action in this wave.

Therefore, this round of arrow rain exposed all the problems of the novice archers.

The heavy infantrymen holding up their shields over there couldn't help but let out a laugh.

Some even took the initiative to shake their shields and easily broke the arrows. Even Yu Wenhua couldn't help laughing. He spurred his horse forward, stretched out his hand and grabbed an arrow, laughing loudly: "Li Guanyi, can such an arrow kill people?"

"Hahaha, your battle formation is good, but what's the use of it?"

"A coward who hides his head in hiding will be exposed one day!"

As a result, the speed of Yuwen's army increased significantly. The heavy infantry defended and advanced. Although the defense was stronger, the physical consumption of the heavy infantry was also extremely huge. The giant shield was pushed forward quickly to maintain mobility and complete the charge when the infantry was at its peak physical strength.

Although this was the case, the army under Yuwen Tianxian's control remained calm.

Thousands of people maintained their formation. Although they felt contempt in their hearts, they still did not let the army get in disorder. Three thousand armored soldiers were solemn, their weapons were silent, and they slowly moved forward. If it weren't for the high morale of the people around Li Guanyi, they would have collapsed under that terrifying oppressive force.

Even Li Guanyi had to say something.

A famous general indeed!

With such a siege and attack, plus the famous generals of the Sixth Heaven, even if a martial arts master was trapped in it and could kill hundreds of people, he would surely die under the spear of Yuwen Tianxian. At this moment of the battle, the main general would not take action immediately.

Because Li Guanyi has already mastered the power of Qilin, at this moment he, as the main general, is entangled with Yuwen Tianxian's aura. Whoever strikes first will lose the initiative and will be hit by thunder. The 500 private soldiers under the giant shields and chariot crossbows are holding their bows tightly, while the rest of the recruits are holding crossbows.

Staring at the heavy infantry over there.

Eighty steps forward.

Take a hundred steps forward.

It’s getting closer, closer—

It reached the range of the crossbow arrows, but still did not move.

Until it's halfway into range.

At this moment, Li Guanyi suddenly swept his weapons, and the real elite of the [Queyue Formation] suddenly shot arrows. The heavy infantry over there just stared at the crossbows here, and seeing that they were just arrows, they subconsciously raised their shields as before.

The bottom of the shield is not connected to the ground.

hum! ! !
When the clear sound of arrows being shot was heard, they realized that something was wrong. However, it was too late when they wanted to change again. The arrows were thrown like rain, instantly exploding into a rain of blood, and the weapon in Yuwen Tianxian's hand suddenly stabbed forward.

Break one of the particularly powerful arrows!

In Li Guanyi's hand, the Cloud-Breaking and Sky-Shattering Bow whistled violently. The young man's dark pupils turned red-gold, like charcoal burning in a flame. He said, "Keep shooting!" The crossbows were shooting crazily, and with the arrows being thrown, the other side couldn't hold on for a while.

Yuwen Tianxian ordered the shield formation!

The giant shields formed a formation, with sharp edges popping out from the bottom of the shields, pressing firmly against the ground.

"Archer!"

Regular Army archers prepare to shoot.

Li Guanyi pulled the Cloud-breaking Sky-shaking Bow and restrained Yuwen Tianxian.

The young man's eyes were fierce. Yes, the archers of the regular army would not be weaker than the 500 private archers under his command from the Zhenbei City Lord's Mansion. However, there were only 600 archers on the opposite side, while all the others here had crossbows!
After knowing Yuwen Tianxian's characteristics, Li Guanyi almost instinctively discovered the greatest weakness of this famous general. His strength lies in his lack of weaknesses, but when the enemy is particularly good at one thing -

Yuwen Tianxian, all of them are shortcomings!
Three thousand infantrymen, including shield soldiers, spearmen, archers, and sword and shield soldiers, each type will not exceed eight hundred people. No matter how strong the shield soldiers are, they will not be stronger than Li Guanyi's [Que Yue Formation] chariot defense. At this distance, his spearmen and sword and shield soldiers are not allowed to get close!

And here, Li Guanyi, the archer——

One thousand and eighty!

"The so-called military strategy does not involve defeating the strong with the weak. It is about using our strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses!" The boy's pupils contracted violently. He learned something from the military strategy, which was radical and adventurous, but -

All heroes in the world are gamblers!

Seeing that the time was up, Lei Laomeng gritted his teeth and swung the sledgehammer: "Be steady!!!"

The hammer smashed down hard, and the crossbow fired!

hum! ! !
The Mohist giant crossbow fired a small number of arrows, but each one was as long as half a spear. When there was a giant shield formation on the opposite side, these crossbow arrows almost turned into a shadow and swept past suddenly.

The giant shield was broken, and there were gaps between them, so the crossbow arrows penetrated several people directly.

The blood spread instantly and screams were heard.

Li Guanyi shouted: "Keep shooting!"

The crossbow arrows were shot out crazily. Yu Wenzhi held his spear and blocked all the crossbow arrows shot at him. Then he found that the boats behind Li Guanyi were continuously transporting crossbow arrows. He realized in an instant that if he could not cut off Li Guanyi's supply, this terrifying crossbow shooting would never stop.

The chariot crossbow was used once, but it had already rendered the heavy shield useless.

Even though the heavy shield soldiers did not suffer too many casualties, almost all of the heavy shields were broken, and the arms and wrists of the shield bearers were bent and twisted to varying degrees, which meant that their defense against rain of arrows was greatly reduced.

"Li Guanyi..."

Yu Wenhua was furious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Charge, heavy cavalry, charge forward while resisting the arrows from the opposite side!" After thinking about it, he realized that the only possibility was that the heavy cavalry charged forward. If the Yuwen family retreated at this point, then the reputation of the Yuwen family would suffer a huge blow.

"Gentlemen, the time to charge is now!"

He led a wave of heavy cavalry to charge. Among them was a brave rider who ignored the crossbow arrows. He swept his heavy spear across, smashing the crossbow arrows that were shot at vital points, and simply ignored the rest of the arrows. Man and horse were one, charging forward fiercely.

When he arrived at the battlefront, he suddenly jumped up.

He jumped directly into the battle formation, but before the war horse landed.

In the [Queyue Formation], the soldiers who had trained for at most a month only performed one action -

Holding the spear, he stabbed upwards fiercely!

That is the biggest weakness of armored cavalry.

In an instant, more than a dozen spears pierced into the horses' bellies, causing a chaos. The heavy cavalry, with armor weighing thousands of pounds, was actually destroyed by the sudden burst of more than a dozen people, causing the heavy cavalry to lose direction and fall to one side.

The cavalryman is still alive!
They drew their swords and were about to start fighting, and panic rose in the hearts of the other soldiers.

Fan Qingyi shouted loudly, flew forward, and directly grabbed the heavy cavalryman's neck. He lifted up his visor, and with a dagger in his backhand, he gouged it directly into his eyes. The cavalryman struggled violently, and it took ten people to hold him down, but he still died.

Fan Qing was breathing heavily, with cold sweat constantly coming out of his forehead.

At the same time, he looked at the corpses of the elite cavalry in the world's first-line army, and an incredible feeling arose -

He killed, killed a heavily armored cavalryman? !

He killed her?!

Hahahaha, he, he killed him!
The tragic smell of blood represented that one of the most powerful armed forces in the world had died here. An incredible feeling rose in the hearts of these young recruits, as if the strength they had lost and the injuries on their bodies had instantly disappeared.

The heavy cavalry that charged in all suffered the same fate.

The thirty-three veteran soldiers of the former Taiping Army performed the ground grappling and assassination techniques after the heavy cavalry fell off their horses more skillfully than Fan Qing. In just a moment, the [Queyue Formation] swallowed up more than a dozen heavy cavalry without any chaos.

Li Guanyi still served as the main general, and he and Yuwen Tianxian checked and balanced each other.

A rain of arrows and crossbow bolts poured out madly.

In just a short period of time, the number of deaths of the three thousand infantrymen had reached about one hundred.

The army has become somewhat disorganized.

Yuwen Tianxian had already gathered his military strength to attack. He took the initiative to rush out and suddenly stabbed with a spear. The white tiger roared and pounced towards Li Guanyi. Li Guanyi still fought back with the [Fire Sky Great] move. The two forces collided fiercely in the sky.

boom! ! !
A huge wave arose in the air, and the vital energy dissipated.

Yuwen Tianxian roared, and the White Tiger showed a gesture of inviting a fight. Li Guanyi did not respond, but only fought back with [Fire Sky Greatness]. This is the difference between a pursuer and a defender——

As long as Yuwen Tianxian withdraws, he will not be hit by the [Queyue Formation].

But that would deal a heavy blow to the reputation of the Yuwen family.

Yu Wenhua was furious: "Li Guanyi, you coward!"

The young man simply drew his bow and shot an arrow. Yu Wenhua turned over and hid under the horse's belly to avoid the arrow. Li Guanyi turned around and said to Fan Qing and the others, "Keep shooting. Fill your crossbows with arrows and shoot hard!"

"Yes!!!"

At this time, Yuwen Tianxian personally led the cavalry. The light cavalry and heavy cavalry were divided into two sides and started to charge directly from the two wings. However, they did not attack the chariots and crossbows on the two wings, but the deeper places -

They rushed into the water.

Yuwen Tianxian was calmer and more perceptive than the opponents that the Queyue Formation had faced before. He instantly realized the weakness of this formation.

If a large number of cavalry penetrate from the flanks or cut off the water supply from the rear, the [Queyue Formation] will become an isolated city. At that time, simply surrounding it without attacking will be enough to cause the formation to collapse from within.

The blazing flames gathered and Qilin appeared above the battle formation.

Li Guanyi turned around and looked at Fan Qing, saying, "The command of the battle formation is now in your hands."

Fan Qing's expression changed slightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"

Li Guanyi smiled and put on the helmet on his face. The ink-black armor covered every last inch of the boy's skin. He turned over and sat on the Qilin's back. The eerie and murderous steel enveloped the boy's body, making him look majestic and dignified, like a real general.

His voice came from the steel, with a calm and solemn tone.

"We all have our own battlegrounds to face."

"I will take you out alive."

Li Guanyi held the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd in his hand, and the tiger on the halberd roared like a tiger. The Qilin, burning with flames, suddenly jumped out of the [Que Yue Formation] and went to stop Yuwen Tianxian.

The Qilin walked on fire, and the young man wearing heavy iron pagoda armor waved his halberd.

Yuwen Tianxian rode a strange beast, controlled the army, turned his mount, and suddenly collided with Li Guanyi.

boom! ! !
The two weapons collided with each other, and the vibration sound was like thunder. A layer of air waves instantly exploded around them, and the arrows were twisted. Above the two people, the aura of the white tiger and the white tiger were constantly colliding and tearing each other.

"Finally came out, Li Guanyi."

The black tiger that Yuwen Tianxian was sitting on roared, its pupils were red, its claws were exposed, it was not as cute as usual, nor was it simply majestic, but it was fierce and overbearing. Yuwen Tianxian said: "Your formation is good, but because of this, I have to kill you!"

Li Guanyi did not answer, he just used [Great Qian Yuan] to control the Qilin's vitality.

He clashed with Yuwen Tianxian with every move.

At the same time, the cavalry on both sides of Yuwen Tianxian had rushed into the shallower area of ​​the water.

Draw your crossbows and shoot at the ships.

It's a rocket!
There were bursts of explosions, and the ships were burning fiercely. The soldiers on them all jumped into the water. Yuwen Tianxian's spear swept across and collided with Li Guanyi's halberd. Yuwen Tianxian relied on his own strength, while Li Guanyi relied on the power of Qilin.

The boy's physique could not sustain the long-term output, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth.

His halberd firmly suppressed Yuwen Tianxian's spear. Neither of them could mobilize the army. It was just a battle of thousands of people. The main general needed to fulfill the duties of the fighting general. This was a conflict that only occurred in small-scale battles. But at this time, Yuwen Tianxian heard the voice of the young man: "Yuwen Tianxian, you lost."

A sound like muffled thunder suddenly exploded and rolled in.

Yu Wenzheng smashed the boat to pieces with his Qi, and suddenly wondered, "What's that sound? Is it going to rain?"

He looked up, but did not see any dark clouds, but the sound of thunder was getting closer.

Yuwen Tianxian suddenly felt something was wrong, but the boy's suppression suddenly became stronger. The Qilin Fire Yuan Qi on the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd was violent. Yuwen Tianxian was just furious and shouted: "Hua'er, retreat quickly!!!"

"It's a water attack!!!"

"Water attack?"

Yu Wenhua was slightly startled. In history, there seemed to be an attack of water and fire, but in reality, this was a rare and ingenious plan and was not so easy to implement. Upstream, when Li Guanyi's Qilin Fire hit the sky, Pang Shuiyun lowered his eyes.

He looked at the evil spirit of the military strategists in the sky in the distance and said softly:
"My lord, the young master is as sharp as you..."

The old man drew his sword and cut the rope of the dam that was blocking the water level.

The simple dam collapsed.

There was a sharpened driftwood raft prepared by the old man Pang Shuiyun, with a poisoned blade tied to the front. Just like that, it rushed towards the surging water that had been blocking the water for several days. Pang Shuiyun said calmly: "My plan is complete, young master, it depends on you..."

The old man held the sword, bowed deeply, and said solemnly:

"Congratulations to my young master."

When Yu Wenhua looked up, the rushing water was already coming. He wanted to leave, but the water under the horse's hooves suddenly seemed to have undercurrents. The horse was frightened and began to struggle. Yu Wenhua clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and the horse suddenly neighed.

After expending a lot of energy, he still struggled to the shore.

Yu Wenhua gasped and turned his head, his face pale. The raging river, carrying sharpened driftwood and fragments of the fireboats that they had just smashed and set on fire, rushed through them fiercely. The cavalry, war horses, and even some infantry were swept away by the undercurrent.

They fell down with a loud bang, while the people in the [Que Yue Formation] crowded forward to avoid the swollen river. The power of nature was terrifying. In just a moment, these hundreds of cavalrymen were knocked down, and the warriors struggled.

Yu Wenhua was suddenly startled and shouted, "Retreat quickly, retreat quickly!!!"

The warriors struggling in the water saw that the mob, the farmers, at the end of the [Que Yue Formation] turned around. They stood on high rocks and earth, wearing cloth or light armor, with red cloth strips tied on their left arms, flying like flames.

Then he raised the crossbow in his hand and pointed it at them.

The next moment, the buzzing sound of the crossbow arrow breaking through the air was like a strong wind.

The northern warriors wearing armor were like living targets in the water that suddenly surged and had turbulent undercurrents. The sound of crossbow arrows shooting into their flesh was muffled.

The river was dyed red with blood.

At this time, the light cavalry had almost completely lost their combat effectiveness, but there were still more than a hundred heavy cavalrymen who managed to return to the land under the water attack, but they were all injured. Yuwen Tianxian's eyes sank slightly, he knew that the defeat was like a landslide, and he was going to be defeated.

However, the situation can still be controlled.

At this time, there was a commotion behind his army. Two groups of cavalry rushed out from the left and right. Changsun Wuchou, who was wearing light armor and following Li Guanyi's orders, circled around and knocked a captain of the supervisory team who was wearing armor and holding a knife away with a spear, laughing loudly:
"Following the general's order, our three hundred light cavalry have arrived!"

There were actually only fifteen riders on each side, but who knew?

Amid the chaos ahead, these thirty riders were all valiant, and they used their mounted archery to pick off the supervisory team, only cutting off the edges like a sharp knife, killing only a few people each time, and then turning back, with grass, wood and ropes following their horses, raising a cloud of dust.

At this time, on a hillside, Ling Pingyang watched the fighting. His heart was surging, and so were the 500 heavy cavalrymen behind him. They originally thought that they had come to rescue Li Guanyi with the help of a grand trend.

But what unfolded before them was a confrontation that was classic enough to be written into the Art of War!
Out of the natural instinct and experience of a cavalry general, Ling Pingyang did not rush into the battlefield at this time. He knew that if the young boy really had such strategy, they would not need these 500 heavy cavalry to win.

Just by relying on this battle, Li Guanyi was able to become a famous general.

And these five hundred heavy cavalrymen only came here to make this battle that is bound to go down in history.

The victory is even more brilliant!

When the number of Yuwen's soldiers killed in battle exceeded 700, Yuwen Tianxian took control of the army and gathered the troops. When the casualty rate reached 30%, he was still able to control the army from collapsing, but he also abandoned Li Guanyi in order to reorganize the army.

Li Guan took a deep breath, with blood at the corner of his mouth.

He held the halberd and swept it suddenly, the Qilin fire roared and hit the sky. The roar of the Qilin exploded in the sky, and then all the warriors of the [Queyue Formation] held their breath, and Fan Qing's heart beat to the extreme.

His mind was blank at this moment, not to mention everyone else's.

But some people have already responded.

Those thirty-three old Taiping Army soldiers!

Their martial arts skills were not as good as Fan Qing's, but at this moment they did not hesitate at all.

He took a step, grabbed the crossbow in a moment, and then jumped up suddenly.

At this moment, the enemy's front infantry had barely made contact with their own side. These thirty-three old soldiers stepped on the back of the giant shield on the opposite side, and while rolling down, they stabbed out with the weapons in their hands, creating a pool of blood on the opposite side whose morale was in panic!

Yuwen Tianxian suddenly looked at the young man.

Li Guanyi raised his hand, took off the Turkic man's helmet, and then threw it away. The young general from the Central Plains, with bright brows and a fiery look like flames, and blood at the corners of his mouth, raised the weapon in his hand high.

What he wants is not a partial victory, nor a miserable survival!
Why can't we win big?!

The Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd roared just like it did in the past, and then chopped down suddenly.

The sharp edge points forward.

The young general from the Central Plains is as fiery as fire.

He said: "Follow me and charge!!"

Fan Qing shuddered and felt a surge of blood in his brain. He was so excited that he thought to himself that the worst that could happen was to risk his life, so he suddenly stood up and followed the thirty-three old soldiers.

Suddenly flipped out!

Fear, but there is another existence that suppresses the fear.

Most of the 1,800 men were still capable of fighting. Even so, they were all covered in blood and rushed out shouting angrily. The thirty-three old soldiers naturally adjusted their formation, with each person responsible for more than fifty people.

Li Guanyi is the sharp blade.

Thirty-three veterans spread out and formed two wings.

Next came the warriors who entered the country, and then those with internal energy, and so on, layer by layer.

The one with the highest martial arts skills in the front bears the greatest pressure, while the flanks are responsible for finishing off the enemy. This is a unique battle formation formed on this battlefield dominated by warriors.

【Crane Wing Killing Formation】!
Fan Qing only felt that a strand of his internal energy was separated and moved forward, and then gathered together layer by layer. The energy of 1,800 people, with 33 old soldiers as the basic node, poured into the absolute core, completing the most basic battle formation of the Taiping Army.

The halberd in Li Guanyi's hand suddenly surged with energy and swept across.

The roar of the tiger exploded, and in just a moment, all the infantrymen in front were swept away, and then they charged forward. At this moment, the 1,800 people who were completely in unison pierced through the opposite battle formation like a spear.

Like a wave cutting through the air!
Then they separated in an instant, separated the enemy infantry, and stabbed with their spears.

The Yuwen army, whose casualties had reached 30%, completely collapsed and began to flee backwards instinctively, which successfully turned into a pursuit battle, defeating the larger force with the smaller one and the stronger with the weak.

Ling Pingyang watched this scene from the hillside. He exhaled, tightened the reins, and said to himself, "General Yue, we don't need to come to rescue them."

"But defeating and annihilating are not the same thing, in such a chaotic world."

He stretched out his hand, grasped his heavy lance, then calmly pulled the warhorse and said:
"Let us fight for Qilin and carve out a path for him in this world."

"Yue Family Army."

He raised his lance and spoke calmly and majestically:

"charge."
