Chapter 276 Lost and Found

Zhao Kuo's order is undoubtedly a death sentence in the royal tomb camp.

The general who defended the royal tomb camp received the order from the general, his face was ashen, and he already had a premonition of his own end. They didn't hate Zhao Kuo, but Qin Jun was too cunning.

"Brothers, fight to the end!" Zhao Jun's bloodiness has never been inferior to Qin Jun's.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The scene where Wang Ling led the remnants out of the trench to fight to the death was replayed again. The same place, the same desperate situation, the only difference is that the two sides lost one by one.

Fate, sometimes is such a coincidence, but also so cruel.

Zhao Jun's bloodiness moved Meng Ao. For the first time, ripples appeared in the calm eyes. Facing such an opponent, what Meng Ao can do is to go all out and send them the last layer.

The sky-shaking killing cries were repeatedly staged inside and outside the camp, stretching endlessly. The charge launched by the Zhao army aroused the blood in the soldiers of the Qin army. The soldiers of the two sides were really jealous and fought each other with death.

The fierce fighting lasted from morning to afternoon. Tired from fighting, the soldiers of Zhao Jun ate in the trench, and they didn't even have time to retreat to the camp. Because as soon as he retreated, the Qin army on the opposite side would kill him.

As the sun sets and the sun sets against the setting sun, the royal tomb camp looks particularly bleak. The restored fortress has become dilapidated again, with ruins and smoke.

Meng Ao sits in the middle army, his expression is stern. Zhao Jun's will to resist was completely beyond his imagination. The ditch on the opposite side looked dead and silent, as if it could be taken down at any time. But when Qin Jun rushed up, the "lying corpses" miraculously came back to life, picked up the scimitar in his hand, and fought with Qin Jun.

Fighting again and again, the trenches no longer exist, buried by corpses and blood. Whether it is the siege equipment or the defense equipment, they are almost broken, and no one thinks about repairing them.

At the end of the war, only the soldiers fought with real knives and guns in close quarters, with no tactics and no frills to speak of. This was the bloodiest and most brilliant scene of the cold weapon era.

Soldiers are not wheat, if you cut it, it will grow back quickly.

The Zhao army was first-class in terms of combat power and fighting will, and was on par with the Qin army; however, they were outnumbered, and in the face of twice as many enemy troops, they were finally defeated. Like the army of the Royal Tomb, none of the defenders of the camp surrendered, and all fought to the end.

In this battle, after a whole day of fierce fighting, with the superiority in strength, Meng Ao's army paid the price of casualties of almost the same scale, and finally managed to take down the royal tomb camp before night fell.

So far, the lost king's tomb camp has been recovered, but the price paid is too great.

According to statistics after the war, the alien infantry led by Chen Tang was almost wiped out, with less than a thousand survivors. The tragedy of the Alien Legion has become the best commentary on this tough battle.

Taking down the camp of the royal tomb, Meng Ao led more than 70,000 troops to enter the camp according to the instructions of Lord Wu'an Bai Qi. In order to commemorate the general who died in the battle, the name of the camp remains unchanged.

Seeing that the fortress of the royal tomb was captured, Zhao Zhuang red-eyed and was about to fight the Qin army in front of him to the death. It was only the military order of the general Zhao Kuo that kept him awake for the last time, and he led his troops back to the foot of Guguan in resentment.

Huan He and Ying Bao's allied forces stopped Zhao Zhuang's army for a whole day, but they were also exhausted. Taking advantage of the situation, he retreated to Light Wolf City for repairs and recharged his batteries. The two generals knew that a more brutal battle was coming.

As for the north of the Bailishi Great Wall, the 100,000 Qin army used to contain the Zhao army's Guguan garrison was naturally separated from the Wang Lu camp. As early as when Huan He and Ying Bao's allied forces entered Hanoi to encircle and suppress Wei's army, Wang He received Bai Qi's secret instruction to divide an army of 100,000 troops, and followed Ying Bao's previous route to visit Changping Pass again.

A few days ago, when Meng Ao's army was still pretending to attack the Wangling camp, the entire Qin army base camp was guarded by only 50,000 troops, like an empty city. At that time, the Zhao army had 200,000 to 300,000 troops, but they had been standing still. If Zhao Kuo could take the risk, the situation of the battle would be different.

Unfortunately, there is no if in war.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Zhuang began to move out all the old chariots and usable things that had been collected. After five full days of hard work, a circle of chariots that had never been seen before finally stood majestically at the foot of Guguan.

This large formation has five layers in total: the outermost layer is a moat and deer village, the second layer is the car city barriers fixedly connected by chariots, and behind the chariots are equipped with swords and shields infantry; formation; the fourth is the continuous military tents, where soldiers and the disabled, old and weak are stationed; the fifth is the golden drum military order building in the center, which is more than ten feet high, with a big flag with the word "Zhao". Command the whole army.

The formation of the car city immediately alarmed Qin Jun. In the distance, the Qin army flooded the camp on the top of the mountain to watch and point out, everyone was amazed. Bai Qi received the report and immediately led the generals to the highest point of Langcheng Mountain to have a look. Seen from a distance, this large formation is almost a huge circle of flames with a radius of more than ten miles. The banners are scattered, the golden drums are faint, and the horses are whistling.

Bai Qi glanced at the generals, and asked: "You all have experienced hundreds of battles, who can tell the origin of this formation? What are the strengths and weaknesses? How to fight?"

Right now, Yingbao has rushed to the north of the Bailishi Great Wall and is in charge of commanding the 100,000 troops there. Meng Ao sat in the camp of the royal tomb and was responsible for monitoring every move of the Zhao army in Guguan.

The only ones who followed Bai Qi were two generals, Wang He and Huan He. Wang Yan led more than 50,000 troops, who were still stationed in the Laomaling camp. Huan He took over Yingbao's troops, together with the Alien Cavalry Legion who had been following him all the time, a total of more than 80,000 cavalry were stationed in Guanglang City, which was considered to have taken over Meng Ao's previous duties.

Apart from these two generals, it was Ouyang Shuo who was the representative of the aliens, and Ju Shou who was by his side.

Wang Lu then laughed and said, "Who cares about the battle formation? There are fifty thousand cavalry, and two charges will kick it over!"

"50,000 cavalry kicked over? I'm afraid that 50,000 cavalry are dead, but you are still ignorant. As a general, you are a minister of a state. If a blind man kicks a horse, can he win the battle?" Although Bai Qi's words It's not intense, but it has a kind of majesty that no one can tell. Even Gao Jueru Wang He and Meng Ao's group of generals are also in awe of Bai Qi, and never dare to talk or laugh openly.

However, the most important thing is that the entire army is extremely convinced by Bai Qi. Bai Qi, who was born in the army, was an iron eagle swordsman when he was a soldier. He was proficient in riding, fighting, fighting and all kinds of weapons. Difference.

Ordinary generals have this length, and the soldiers wear casual clothes. However, Bai Qi is far from this. The calculations on the battlefield are sophisticated, the deployment of tactics is clever, the courage to kill the enemy is abundant, and the courage and courage to make decisions are almost perfect in everything. For more than 30 years, as long as Bai Qi led the army, no matter how fierce the battle was, the Qin army was invincible.

Over time, the soldiers of the Qin Army referred to Bai Qi as the god of war sent to Qin by heaven. A military rumor spread in the barracks: "But with Bai Qi, you can only die of old age. If you have to die in battle, such is the destiny!" It is said that even if you die in battle with Bai Qi, you will not be wronged.

It is so white, but it has never been manic and arrogant, always so calm, always so sober, and always so tirelessly trying to figure out the enemy.

Except for the word "God", there is really no way to explain it.

When Bai Qi said this, Wang Yan's face flushed instantly, and he scratched his ears and cheeks in anxiety.

Bai Qi was well aware of Wang Lu's temper, so he didn't take it to heart, and was just about to take this opportunity to explain the battle formation to the generals, but at this moment, a slow and leisurely voice suddenly came from behind: "If the old man expected That’s right, this formation should be the Checheng Circle Formation.”

Bai Qi was startled, turned his head to look, and saw that the speaker was an old man, dressed as a scribe, standing behind the stranger Qi Yue Wu Yi. Facing Bai Qi's gaze, the scholar bowed and saluted.

Ouyang Shuo understood, and introduced: "I report to Lord Wu An, this is Ju Shou, the military commander of the Alien Legion."

Bai Qi nodded, not annoyed by the interruption, but said with admiration: "I can't think of such a high-level person among the strangers. I would like to ask the old man to explain this formation, and the old man will listen attentively." It is not Bai Qi Deliberately embarrassing Jushou, as long as you recognize this formation, you can naturally tell whether the formation is good or bad.

Ju Shou did not refuse, and said: "The round formation of Checheng comes from "Sun Bin's Art of War". Sun Bin never used formations in battle in his life, but left ten formations. It is not clear how they are used. The so-called Sun Bin's ten formations are square Formation, circular formation, one-character formation, sparse formation, number formation, conical formation, geese formation, hook formation, Xuanxiang formation, and water and fire formation. Among the ten formations, the first three formations are regular battle formations, which are really Sun Bin included actual combat in the book; the final water-fire formation is also the method of water and fire warfare in actual combat, not the formation; the other six formations should be created by Sun Bin, but there is no fixed formula for how to use them, and it varies from person to place. There are many changes in equipment. Zhao Jun's current formation is based on Sun Bin's ten formations, which are formed in a circular formation with trenches, chariots, and infantry. It is called the Checheng circular formation."

"The power of the chariot city circle lies in the fact that the whole army is a match, and the soldiers of the whole army respond to each other; if our army concentrates its forces to attack one place, the rest will come to attack our side; if our army is completely surrounded and Attacking it, the troops will be stretched into a large circle of tens of miles, and they will be scattered and thin, how can they break through the camp?"

"Papa papa!" Bai Qi took the lead in applauding, and said with a smile: "The old man is a great talent!"

"Don't dare to be appreciated by Lord Wu An."

Bai Qi waved his hand, his expression serious for the first time.

According to Bai Qi's plan, the next step is to cooperate with the Yingbao army north of the Great Wall of Stone and attack Guguan back and forth. However, Zhao Kuo's deployment of this large formation is equivalent to guarding the south of the old pass as impenetrable as gold.

The fortress of the royal tomb that Meng Ao's army worked so hard to build has become a tasteless one.

Not only that, without worrying about the future, Zhao Kuo can also cooperate with the Huguan defenders, and in turn attack the Yingbao army back and forth. The situation of the enemy and the enemy was instantly reversed because of a large formation.

Bai Qi also had to sigh with emotion that Zhao Kuo had indeed begun to show the potential of a generation of famous generals.

"If you want to defeat Zhao Jun, you must first destroy the round formation of Checheng!" Finally, Bai Qi said firmly.
