Chapter 1006: Definitely Kill!

He thought that he was in control of the overall situation and had made full preparations, but he had still underestimated the meaning of the words “all’s fair in war”, Meng Duo’s despicableness, and human nature.

General Ming Wei also fell.

There was a choked cry in the army.

Yin Huaixi shouted angrily, “Why are you crying? We only know how to die on the battlefield for the people. There’s no need to think about your corpse returning! Everyone present has been prepared to die on the battlefield from the day we entered the army. Why are we afraid of death?!”

“I’m not afraid of death!”

“I’m not afraid of death!”

“Avenge General Ming Wei, our dead soldiers, and those commoners!”

“Blood for blood…

“Blood for blood…

The aura of the You soldiers soared into the sky. Meng Duo couldn’t help but retreat dozens of feet. He had a bad feeling.

“Where are the shieldbearers?”

“Yes, yes, yes…” With Yin Huaixi’s order, a group of heavy-armored soldiers quickly lined up in front of the You army. Immediately, they built a tall shield wall in front of the You army to deflect the enemy’s bows.

“Where are the archers?” With Yin Huaixi’s order, rows of archers immediately jumped up and sat on the shoulders of the shieldbearers. The archers would follow the changes in the shields and shoot arrows.

Order after order, the 100,000 You soldiers lined up.

General Ning Yuan shouted, “The Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation is completed. Your Highness, please instruct us.”

The Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation was also known as the Five Elements Formation and the Eight Diagrams Formation. It was a formation created by Zhuge Liang in the Warring States Period. It was once famous, but with the destruction of the Shu Kingdom, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation was lost.

Yin Huaixi had obtained a glimpse of it from the silk book that the Marquis of Changxing had given Yu Youyao as an apology back then. Although he did not know the full picture, it was already powerful.

The Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation was a combination of defense, killing, and trapping the enemy. The outside was square, while the internal formation could change into eight formations. There was the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, the Seven Stars Big Dipper Formation, the Six Men and Six Armor Formation, the Five Tigers Surrounding Sheep Formation, the Four Gates Bottom Formation, the Heaven and Earth Tripartite Formation, the Two Dragons out of the Water Formation, and the Long Snake Formation.

In other words, they could alternate among nine formations by using this formation.

It was also Yin Huaixi’s greatest confidence in this battle.

Yin Huaixi shouted, “The Northern Barbarians are ruthless and rebellious. They opened arms on their own and killed my compatriots, invading my territory. l, Yin Huaixi, will lead the righteous army and carry out the heavenly punishment. We will rely on His Majesty to order the internal and external world to be peaceful. Those who dare to be called soldiers—”

“Definitely kill! ”

“Definitely kill! ”

“Definitely kill! ”

The war drum was like thunder, and its aura was imposing. It shot straight into the sky. Yin Huaixi’s experts shouted, “All troops, listen up. Change into a

Long Snake Formation and charge with me.”

The 100,000 soldiers immediately turned into a long snake. The shieldbearers raised their shields in front, while the MO saber soldiers were behind. The archers were behind them, followed by the cavalry and the infantry.

Meng Duo, who had been through hundreds of battles, immediately understood. The Long Snake Formation was integrated. Not only did it increase the speed of the You army’s march, but it also restrained long-range bows.

This was just like how the targets used for target shooting in the army were all round. This was because the circular area was large and the target was large. It was easier to hit an arrow. No target was long.

The target of the snake formation was small, and the formation was agile and flexible. The entire team kept changing positions like snakes, preventing the Di people from raining arrows on the battlefield.

Meng Duo’s expression changed a few times, and he was a little surprised and uncertain. However, on second thought, the war in the Northern Barbarians relied on the bravery of the soldiers and their experience in hundreds of battles. They had never relied on these fancy formations. All these years, they had never lost to the You army.

Nieng Duo calmed down. “All troops, listen to my orders. Charge…”

The effect of the bow and arrow was minimal. When the Long Snake Formation approached and the MO Saber soldiers hiding behind the shieldbearers broke out of their shields, the Di army could only wait for death.

As a general of an army, it was naturally impossible for him to sit back and do nothing. If he charged forward now, he could destroy the formation of the You army. Once the formation was in chaos, it would be a good opportunity for them to slaughter the You army.

The Di people were belligerent and incomparably brave. With the general’s order, they rushed forward like hungry tigers and ferocious wolves.

If it were anyone else with a weaker mental fortitude, they would have been forced back dozens of feet by this brave force. They couldn’t help but feel afraid, and it was inevitable that they would panic.

However, Yin Huaixi’s expression was calm. When the Long Snake Formation was within the range of the Di people, he raised the array flags and the formation changed.

General Ning Yuan shouted, “Change to the Two Dragons Out of the Water Formation and disperse the Di people to charge into their formation.”

The entire army immediately separated into two long dragons, causing the Di people who were charging forward to immediately not know how to deal with it. Meng Duo was shocked and immediately guessed the You army’s intentions, feeling vigilant.

Harmon’s expression was solemn as he shouted, “All troops, retreat a hundred

feet.’

Meng Duo was flustered and exasperated. “The main reason why the You army is divided into two teams is to disperse the Di army’s forces. Once the Di army splits up and attacks, we’ll fall into their trap. As long as we maintain our momentum and don’t fall into their trap, it’ll be fine. Why should we retreat?

I’m the main general of the Northern Barbarians. You…”

Harmon interrupted him angrily. “The You army is divided into two teams.

Once we maintain our momentum and charge at one team, the other team will quickly converge on us and surround us. We’ll be trapped.”

At this point, he slowed down his tone. “Look carefully. The You army’s two teams seem to be scattered. However, even though they seem to be separate, they are actually connected. Once we disperse our forces, the two teams will quickly close in and integrate into one again to defeat our two teams one by one.”

After all, Meng Duo had been through hundreds of battles. After calming down, he observed the formation of the You army and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. “What kind of formation is this? Why haven’t I seen it before?

Even if our army retreats 100 feet and doesn’t fight them head-on, the two teams of the You army have also split up to attack us. Our Northern

Barbarians are good at riding and archery, and we’ve often been successful on the battlefield. Only the MO Saber users of the You army can restrain them a little. However, this Two Dragons Out of the Water Formation has divided our archers into two teams. Our army’s suppression of the You army’s archers will also be greatly reduced.”

As soon as the two sides collided, the Northern Barbarians were at a disadvantage. Meng Duo had already realized how powerful the Great Zhou’s formation was.

Harmon also shook his head. “I’ve heard in the past that during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period of the Han people, they respected Confucianism on the surface and Daoism in practice. Daoism was very prosperous. Many Daoist formations were used in wars and were often successful. They were very powerful. However, as Buddhism prospered and Daoism hid, these formations were lost.’

“Now, there are not many people in the Great Zhou Dynasty who can control military formations. They often only know a little. They are also nothing compared to the bravery of the Northern Barbarians.”

“Yin Huaixi is unfathomable. It’s obvious that he’s proficient in arranging troops and arrays. He’s been guarding the North for the past few years and has been hiding for a while, waiting for us to fall into his trap.”

Meng Duo’s expression changed a few times. He had been preparing for this war for two to three years, and so had Yin Huaixi!

His original confidence of winning immediately became shaky in front of the strange and unpredictable array..
