Chapter 718: The Grand Way of the Military
Xiaoyu knew who was coming without looking back.

She was not too panicked because she was using the alias of “Flying Feather Fairy” at the time and was not afraid of being exposed.

“Fei Longzi, I heard that your golden armored zombie drank human blood and sucked the souls of the dead, and it has been nurtured for hundreds of years and finally reached maturity.

But after all this effort, it seems to have little effect. It couldn’t even block my casual sword strike!”

She was careless before and didn’t expect that there was a golden-armored corpse hidden under the ground inside the tent.

But she knew who the golden-armored corpse belonged to.

Long before she sneaked into the Donghu military camp, she had already learned the basic information about the Donghu Immortal Master from Lu Lingzi.

For example, Fei Longzi is good at raising corpses. He seems to have raised two flying zombies, one of which is about to break through the Zombie King.

She was a newcomer to Shenzhou, but Daiyi City had been in confrontation with Donghu for more than two months.

The generals and immortals of both sides fought countless battles.

“At least my golden-armored corpse king has caught you. Now that your identity has been exposed and you are surrounded by an army of 300,000, you still dare to act rashly?”

Fei Longzi did not come in his real body. He was now possessed by a flying zombie covered with three-inch black hair.

Moreover, the flying zombies were hiding in the sky very cautiously, not daring to come down, but just kept spraying poisonous air downwards.

In fact, he is not just good at exaggerating.

Originally he was about to dive downward.

After all, the specialty of zombies is their physique. They are invulnerable to swords and guns, as strong as diamond, and possess tremendous strength. “Data” speaks for itself. His flying zombie has not reached the dual extremes of strength and speed, but after he merged with the flying zombie, he used his own spirit to combine with the “corpse pill essence” in the flying zombie’s body, allowing him to maintain the dual extremes of strength and speed for a long time.

The dual abilities of strength and speed are merely the physical abilities of the flying zombie.

Taking into account various “magic” effects, such as absorbing the evil spirit of the earth and spewing poisonous fire that burns the entire city, even immortals who have not cultivated great magical powers will find it difficult to deal with it.

That’s why he dared to go alone and use his flying zombie to attack Fairy Feiyu, preparing to attack her from the front and back with the Golden Armored Corpse King.

But when he was halfway through his flight, he saw a flash of lightning, and the golden armored corpse that he had been refining for five hundred years was cut in half and destroyed neatly.

——Oh no, Fairy Feiyu is actually very good at the Five Thunder Method, and her evil-breaking lightning is so strong that it has touched the laws of Tao. This person is my nemesis!
I can’t go down and fight her head-on, I just need to delay time and wait for my fellow Taoists to come.

There are also Donghu generals who can form military formations to encircle and kill.

As long as we can hold her back and prevent her from escaping, it will be easy for everyone to capture her together.

With this idea in mind, he hung in the air and only sprayed poison downwards. He did not dare to spray fire for fear of starting a fire that would spread across the camp for thirty miles.

There is no need to worry about the corpse poison. Anyway, there is a death row camp below. If the corpse poison spreads, it will only poison the prisoners to death.

“Huhuhu~~~”

There was a strong wind on the ground, a black wind, and the area within a radius of three or four miles seemed to be filled with countless black blades.

Not only did it spread the corpse poison to the surrounding Donghu camps, it also completely blocked his vision.

“Boom—Crack!”

Thunder roared above his head, and purple lightning suddenly filled his world.

Then the world was like a mirror, split by a diagonal line.

The thousand-year-old flying zombie was cut in half like a wooden stake under a sharp axe and fell to the ground with a “pa”.

The black fur was covered in lightning and fire and began to burn.

“Ah~~~~” Two hundred feet away, a shrill howl was heard in Fei Longzi’s tent.

The next moment, the sky was filled with the majestic shout of Donghu King Kebineng, “Everyone stay in your tents and don’t move. Don’t draw your swords or run around. Commanders of all tribes, stay in the camp and beware of the camp roar!”

The Donghu soldiers who had heard the commotion coming from the direction of the death row camp and were about to draw their swords and leave the camp immediately stopped, sheathed their swords, and waited quietly holding the hilts.

In the central army camp, inside the king’s tent.

Ke Bineng was stunned for a long time before he shouted in shock and anger: “Who is this? Who is impersonating me and giving orders?”

Just as Yuwen Bo was about to speak, a loud shout suddenly came from another direction, still spreading in all directions, “How dare you impersonate me to issue orders. All four camps in the southeast, northwest, and northeast, mobilize all your elite troops, and hunt down the assassin! Anyone who dares to impersonate me will be killed without mercy~~”

Ke Bineng was furious. “Too arrogant. He is simply making a fool of my 300,000 Donghu warriors. Master Yuwen, Venerable Huangfeng, go out and capture this beast immediately!”

Originally, Yuwen Bo really wanted to go out and help, but now he didn’t dare to move.

“Great Chanyu, calm down! If I and fellow Daoist Huang Feng go out, Fairy Feiyu will come to the king’s tent to assassinate you.

We should be calm and not fall for her trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain.”

If Fei Longzi had held back Fei Yu Fairy before and he had gone to support her, he wouldn’t have to worry about her coming to assassinate the Great Chanyu.

After all, she is only one person and cannot have two selves.

But now Feilongzi was howling miserably, and Feiyu Fairy was extremely rampant, pretending to be the Great Khan in public, and playing two roles by herself. At least it showed that she was very leisurely at the moment, and was not involved by anyone at all.

If he went out to look for her, he might not find her.

But if he and Venerable Huangfeng leave, Fairy Feiyu will most likely come over.

“How do you know it’s Fairy Feiyu?” Ke Bineng asked.

Yuwen Bo said helplessly: “We have been confronting the Qin army for so long under the city of Daiyi. Other immortals can’t do such a thing at all.”

“Great Chanyu, what’s going on? Do you want to go out and look for the assassin?” A loud shout came from outside the royal tent.

“We don’t even know where they ran off to. What are we looking for? Let’s stabilize the army’s morale first.” It was Master Xue Ling who sighed.

“Great Chanyu, is it convenient for us to come in now?” asked a captain of ten thousand cavalry outside the gate.

Yuwen Bo personally went out to welcome in several immortal masters.

After they entered the king’s tent, they all looked at Kebineng carefully.

Kebi could understand what they were thinking. His face flushed and he said, “Fairy Feiyu is too shameless. She is a great Kunlun Immortal, but she pretended to be a mortal to disrupt the military camp. Doesn’t she have the dignity of an immortal?”

Taoist Long Yang disagreed and said, “We are not much better than her. Taoist Xue Ling even secretly used the power of calling the wind and snow.

Now we scold her, but she can’t hear us.

If they hear this, they will retort, so it is better to quell the unrest in the army first.

The Great Chanyu should not stay in the royal tent.

Now that we are all here, we will go out with you for a walk, and the whole army will be convinced.”

Yuwen Bo agreed, “Fellow Daoist Longyang is right. Great Chanyu, let’s go out.”

It was not until dawn, around eight in the morning, that Ke Bineng made a quick run around the nine camps in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest.

The large military camp of 300,000 people is divided into nine camps in the form of a nine-square grid, covering a total area of ​​more than 10,000 acres.

Kebi Neng rarely made any public speeches. He just let the Donghu warriors see him in the company of the immortal masters, so that they could understand that their Great Khan was not dead and was not held hostage by anyone.

The previous shouting was from a shameless immortal impersonating him.

Although the Great Chanyu Kebi Neng was inspecting the camp, the Donghu cavalry commanders and thousand-man captains did not stay where they were.

The Donghu people began preparing to return to the prairie long before the Xiu tribes were destroyed.

After Xiu Ge was killed, they decided to set out today.

Even though they encountered some unexpected events, they still did not change their plans.

When Kebi Neng returned to the king’s tent with a tired face, the first batch of 5,000 cavalry pioneers had already set out. Three hundred thousand people, ten times more horses and cattle than soldiers, countless vehicles, and carts piled with baggage, marched forward in waist-deep ice and snow.
Xiao Yu, as an immortal master from Shenzhou, felt a little nervous for these Donghu people.

“The entire camp alone stretches for twenty miles and covers an area of ​​10,000 to 20,000 mu. Can we completely leave the camp today? The Great Chanyu should have set off earlier. It’s winter now, and the grassland is covered with ice and snow.

Even if we cleared a path ahead of time, it would still be difficult to walk on the frozen mud.”

“We will definitely not evacuate everyone from the camp all at once. We will have to leave in batches, leaving at least 50,000 elite cavalry behind to finish off the rest.”

Ke Bineng explained, then said helplessly: “At this time of year in previous years, we would have been sitting around the stove at the foot of Chifeng, drinking mare’s milk and enjoying the singing girls’ dances.

It was Xiu Ge who insisted that we hold back the old man Li Xin to create an opportunity for him to break through Yanmen Pass.

As long as we can kill Meng Yi and let the Xiongnu cavalry enter Yanmen Pass, we won’t have to return to the grassland this year.

Right inside the Great Wall, I lived in the houses of people from the Central Plains, ate their food, and slept with their women.

“Regain your energy and wait until the snow melts next year, then you can plunder thousands of miles, steal millions of gold beads and tens of millions of pieces of silk, and then it won’t be too late to return to the royal court.”

“Report~~~” Before he could even sit in the tent, a centurion rushed in, knelt outside the tent and shouted, “Great Chanyu, the east, west and north gates of Daiyi City are all open, and at least 20,000 Qin soldiers are rushing out of each gate. There are also four cavalry formations, harassing our camp from the side.”

“Old man Li, I know he won’t let us go easily.”

Kebineng was not surprised. After cursing, he pulled himself together, mounted his horse, and rushed towards the camp gate.

Reverend Huang Feng led hundreds of iron guards to form a military formation to protect him, and Yuwen Bo also rode beside him on horseback.

Other immortal masters also have their own tasks.

For example, Master Xueling led a group of lamas to Juyongguan.

They entered Dai County from Juyongguan and plundered dozens of cities. Now that they want to leave, they must go through Juyongguan.

If Juyongguan was taken by the Qin army, they would be trapped.

Taoist Longyang had just arrived and originally had no mission.

While Ke Bineng was inspecting the camp and trying to stabilize people’s hearts, he received another piece of bad news: the medicine warehouse was visited by the Feiyu Fairy, and a large number of precious medicines were lost. It was not clear whether the remaining medicines were mixed with poison.

Therefore, the task of checking the medicine storehouse and searching the camp for the Feiyu Fairy who was disguised as a Donghu person was given to Taoist Master Longyang.

“Master, I feel that you don’t need to do anything at all. There’s no need to get involved in cause and effect. The Donghu people are too rotten. They will definitely not be able to get out of the ice field. Once the Meng family army arrives, it will be unfair if they are not completely wiped out!” Even Xiaoqiang was secretly complaining.

“The Qin army in Daiyi City seems to be even weaker. Maybe all the elite troops have been transferred to Yanmen Pass?”

Xiaoyu floated in the air, staring at the battlefield in the distance with a frown on his face.

After seeing the tens of thousands of elite cavalry led by Meng Yi at Yanmen Pass, she thought that the 200,000 troops in the neighboring Daiyi City were also an invincible iron army.

Because of this preconceived idea, she muttered in her heart: Li Xin is worthy of being the “Zhao Kuo of the Great Qin” who suffered a great defeat in the battle to destroy Chu. He is such a waste. He led 200,000 people to face 300,000 Donghu cavalry, but he did not dare to go out of the city to fight in the field. He had been hiding in the city and needed Meng Yi to lead his troops to rescue him.

However, most of the Qin troops that went out of the city to harass and evacuate the Donghu people were infantry.

Their equipment and individual soldier qualities were so poor that one would suspect they were farmers who had just put down their hoes.

Among the 300,000 Donghu people, there are also “ordinary people” who have not cultivated internal strength.

But at least they are full of energy, strong physique and superb martial arts.

The reason why I didn’t develop internal strength is simply because I practiced for too short a time.

Many Qin soldiers were weak and their moves were stiff. They were obviously ordinary people.

“Hey, there’s something wrong with the Qin army’s fighting power. The soldiers are so weak, how come they still have the upper hand on the battlefield? This doesn’t make sense!”

Xiao Yu watched for a while, and his originally furrowed brows relaxed because the situation was unfavorable to Donghu, but then gradually frowned again because of the strange behavior of the Qin army.

He frowned before because he was worried, but now he was a little confused about the situation on the battlefield.

She moved several hundred feet closer and flew higher, recalling “The Later Part of Bai Qi’s Art of War: Large-Scale Military Operations” in her mind.

“This is perfect, it’s simply the art of war!”

With the help of Bai Qi’s military book, she gradually understood it and was shocked.

The three gates of Daiyi City were wide open, and more than 150,000 Qin troops rushed out one after another.

At first, I thought they were in a mess. They just kept running (changing formations and positions), running for a while, stopping, lining up with their “卜字戟” and poking forward, poking a few times, and then continuing to run.
If you just focus on a team of a hundred people, you will have no idea what they are doing.

I just feel that the more athletic they are, the stronger their combat skills are.

If you follow dozens of teams of 100 people in an area at the same time, you can clearly see the traces of the formation.

It’s not a fairy formation that evolves earth, water, wind and fire, it’s just a “mortal formation” that Xiaoyu’s soldiers in his previous life could use to deploy their troops.

This kind of “mortal formation” is mainly used to increase the efficiency of soldiers’ movement.

For example, there are two teams of 100 people, A and B, one team is crossbowmen and the other team is swordsmen and shieldmen. Now due to tactical needs, the two teams have to exchange positions.

A movement without rules will inevitably be chaotic, with soldiers pushing each other and extremely low efficiency, making it impossible to achieve the established tactical goals.

The “Mortal Formation” makes the movement on the battlefield very orderly and efficient.

There are dozens of teams of hundreds of people, but only a few thousand people, and still nothing can be seen.

But if she could keep track of hundreds or thousands of teams of 100 people at the same time, with more than 100,000 soldiers to be kept track of, when Xiaoyu’s CPU began to heat up, she felt the “Tao”!
It corresponds to the stars in the sky above and the spirits of the earth below, and is in harmony with the heaven and earth of the Daiyi city.

It seemed that those fighting against the Donghu were not only the Qin people outside the city, but also the blue sky, snow, sun, and strong wind.
This was not an illusion. Xiaoyu clearly saw that there were several places with steeper slopes. When the Qin army stood there, they had the advantage of terrain; but when the Hu people rushed up, they were faced with an unfavorable environment.

Among the 150,000 Qin troops, Xiao Yu also saw several “military formations” led by top human immortals.

They are both dazzling and inconspicuous on the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of people.

Most of the time, they were drowned in countless ordinary soldiers, looking mediocre and as if they were just wasting their time.

But when a strong force is needed to break the deadlock in a certain local battlefield, they appear at the right time, and then the “military spirit” of the army shines like stars in the night sky, extremely conspicuous.

It even attracted interference from the Donghu Immortal Master.

But after a small-scale encounter, they quickly “faded away”, maintaining only the minimum consumption, and were inconspicuous on the overall battlefield until they were needed in another local battlefield.

Well, the Donghu immortal master kept calling “Fairy Feiyu” shameless, but in fact they themselves were very unruly.

He often uses his status as an immortal to take the initiative to deal with generals and military formations.

The immortal master in Daiyi City is very disciplined and basically only attacks the immortal master of Donghu.

“General Li is not a general who can charge into battle, but a marshal who can lead large armies into battle!”

After expressing his emotion, Xiao Yu had another question: Li Xin’s current performance is simply amazing, and it is not an exaggeration to praise him as a “God of War”. What level are Wang Jian and Bai Qi, who are more powerful than him?
Then she thought of Han Xin again.

Han Xin, the “Military Genius”, is the ancestor of “the more the better”.

His ability to command large armies should be stronger than Wang Jian and Bai Qi, right?

Now Li Xin’s command of troops has become as perfect as art, and he can almost surround and kill immortals with his mortal soldiers.

How terrifying is Han Xin?
——After the war in Dai County subsides, I still have to go to the Central Plains, find Han Xin as soon as possible, and become his “adoptive father” to ensure that I will not fall inexplicably in the “Chu-Han Contention” in the future.

Fighting in large groups is the kingly way of the military, and its upper limit far exceeds the “military formation”.

If it can be taken to the extreme, it would be terrifying.

Although she had no intention of participating in the Chu-Han Contention in the Central Plains, her ancestors had a good saying: Having no sword in hand and having a sword but not using it are two different things.
