A knife in love

Chapter 411

"Army formation?!"

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan asked simultaneously.

Zhu Sanjia nodded.At this time, he calmed down a little, pointed to the opposite side of Jinshui Bridge and said: "Although the sky is dark, I can't see where these people are, but it is obvious that in this army formation, the forward troops with the infantry as the main force are slightly behind. The two wings that originally covered the central army were protruding instead. This formation is completely different from the formations passed down from generation to generation. Only King Yan Zhudi used it when he was on an expedition to the desert before he became emperor. It's just that at that time King Yan put the infantry in the middle, and the two wings They are all cavalry. But in the formation in front of us, there are only infantry and no cavalry."

The Meridian Gate is more than ten feet higher than the large open space behind the inner Jinshui River, so to walk up the Jinshui Bridge, you have to walk down more than ten steps first.Because of this, standing on the platform of the Meridian Gate, one can roughly see the situation in the open space.It's just that in this cave, although the top of the head is covered with fluorite like stars, the light is limited after all, and it is still very dim at first glance.Therefore, although people can be seen everywhere in this open space, it is just that they can't see clearly what these people look like.

Li Qiufeng said: "Brother Zhu, how do you know the situation of King Yan's army formation? Did you see it when you were a soldier in Xuan and Da Towns?"

Zhu Sanjia shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "The ancestors of my Zhu family fought with King Yan in the South and North, and left behind a battle plan. At that time, my father wanted me to achieve fame and glory. It's just that I was rude and seldom read since I was a child. It is impossible to even think about relying on my background in the imperial examination. So my father taught me martial arts and planned to be a martial artist. In addition to the examination of horseback bow and arrow, the martial arts examination also needs to test the theory of strategy. The content. My father took out this formation diagram and told me that the formation diagram left by our ancestors was hand-painted in his spare time when he was fighting with King Yan. King Yan used this formation diagram It is a plan to train soldiers and use them in combat, and they will be victorious in every battle. The power of this formation is that it is completely different from the formation diagrams handed down by military masters of the past dynasties. When attacking, the cavalry on the two wings advance faster, and the infantry in the middle is at every step, waiting for the cavalry to go around. After the enemy army, close the retreat route, and wipe out the enemy army after the infantry presses up. Although this formation is slightly risky, the way to win is all in the word "odd".

While the two were talking, Liu Yong suddenly said in a low voice: "There are tens of thousands of people gathered here, why can't I hear anyone breathing?"

Most of the people present are martial arts experts, and their ear power is far superior to ordinary people.Just now when everyone saw tens of thousands of people gathered here, they were so shocked that they forgot where they were.After waking up, Liu Yong immediately felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't help asking the question.

Qingfeng said humanely: "Mr. Liu is right. Besides, since we saw them, they must have seen us too. Why are these people still standing still? This situation is very strange."

Li Qiufeng walked quickly to Liu Yong's side, and whispered to Liu Yong what Zhu Sanjia said.Taoist Qingfeng, Chu Danyang and others standing beside Liu Yong had already stretched out their ears, and Li Qiufeng didn't want to hide it from these people.So not only Liu Yong heard it, but also several people around him knew that there was an army formation behind the Jinshui Bridge.

After hearing this, everyone became more and more confused.Situ Qiao originally planned to take advantage of the chaos and slip away, but seeing that the tens of thousands of people were really standing still, he thought he might as well stay and see the situation.At this time, he heard that there was an army formation on the opposite side, he was startled, and thought to himself that since it was an army formation, if the commanding general gave an order, he might be shot into a hedgehog.The situation at this time is more dangerous than being besieged by the Fifth Army Battalion outside the valley.So he felt like running away again, and kept looking around.It's just that he inadvertently saw a pair of eyes full of sarcasm, but it was Deng Yao who had been staring at him.Situ Qiao's heart trembled, he thought to himself that this old beggar has always been against me, now he is staring at me, if he sees through my intentions, I'm afraid things will go badly.Thinking of this, he no longer dared to look around, so he could only stand there obediently, pretending to be nonchalant.

But I heard Chu Danyang say: "This is strange. Could it be that these tens of thousands of people are all masters of martial arts, their inner strength has reached the peak, and their breathing is so delicate and long that we people can't hear it?"

Liu Yong shook his head and said, "Where can we find so many martial arts masters in the world? If these people can really practice martial arts to such an extent, no one who stands out casually will be inferior to the heads of various sects. Think about it, can there be tens of thousands of martial arts masters in the world?" A person with such outstanding martial arts?!"

Lin Yilang said: "These people stop here. If we want to get over it, it will be extremely difficult. Although these people didn't attack us, there is no guarantee that they won't attack us later. Why don't we take advantage of them not attacking first? Exit the Meridian Gate and make further calculations, what do you think?"

Many people actually planned this way, so after Lin Yilang finished speaking, several people followed suit.Liu Yong turned to look at Situ Qiao, but he heard Situ Qiao wryly smile and say: "Mr. Liu, if there is news from the authorities, I am naturally not afraid. But there are tens of thousands of people standing in front of me, and I am helpless. Even if there are not tens of thousands of people in front of us. People, but tens of thousands of pigs, to kill them all, I am afraid it will take several months to kill..."

Hearing what he said, everyone knew that Situ Qiao also wanted to retire.This person has always been fearless and only seeks profit. Since he dare not step forward, who else would dare to take the lead?

At this moment, Li Qiufeng suddenly heard Li Qiufeng say: "Go over and have a look, and then it's not too late to make a decision."

Everyone's heart trembled, Situ Qiao sneered and said: "Are you trying to poke a hornet's nest? Maybe these people didn't find us, you rushed over rashly and alarmed these tens of thousands of people, they rushed over together, even if you stomped on us It can trample us into mincemeat."

After hearing Situ Qiao's words, everyone nodded in agreement.Along the way, it was the first time that Qunhao agreed with Situ Qiao, but it was extremely rare.

Li Qiufeng said: "Seniors, don't you think these people are so strange? As Mr. Liu said, these tens of thousands of people gathered together, but they didn't make a sound. The seniors are all leaders of the school, with first-class martial arts. If someone Hiding in the vicinity, seniors have already discovered the reason why countless top masters in the world gather here. What's more, if these people's martial arts are really so strong, we would have been discovered by them standing here. But These people have been standing still, isn’t it the strangest thing in the world? Instead of being uneasy here, it’s better to go and have a look.”

All the leaders of the various gangs present were well-informed people, and they were not easy to be confused by others.It's just that since embarking on the road of finding the Jingxin Temple, everything has been unexpected, so everyone has a three-point fear.Just then, when he suddenly saw tens of thousands of people standing in front of him, the fear in his heart grew stronger, and he lost his composure for a moment, and then he felt like retreating.But after all, everyone is a first-class master in the arena. Hearing what Li Qiufeng said, he immediately realized that there was something strange about this matter.

But I heard Taoist Qingfeng say: "This little brother doesn't say anything, and the poor Taoist is willing to go with you."

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said: "The Taoist priest's good intentions are appreciated. But the situation ahead is unknown, so it's not good if there are too many people going. If the next person goes, if something happens, it will be easier to escape."

Although Liu Yong was open-minded, he didn't want Taoist Qingfeng and Li Qiufeng to get too close, seeing Li Qiufeng politely rejecting Taoist Qingfeng, it hit his heart.He said to Li Qiufeng: "Since Brother Li has made up his mind, we all wait for your good news. But Brother Li can go to find out the news, and you must not be competitive and fight with others."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and was about to walk down the steps when he heard Murong Danyan's voice behind him: "Brother Li, I want to go with you!"

Li Qiufeng turned around and saw Murong Danyan's anxious face, as if he was about to cry at any moment.He was afraid that the girl would rush up regardless, so he hurriedly said to Murong Danyan: "Miss Murong, brother Zhu is seriously injured, please take care of her carefully. Li will come back as soon as he goes, girl don't have to worry."

He was afraid that Murong Danyan would pester her again, so he turned around and walked down the steps after speaking.Daoist Qingfeng had no friendship with Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, and he didn't know the entanglement between these two people, so he thought to himself: "I am the head of a sect, and this young man doesn't give face. What kind of onion are you, girl? Do you want to jump out and make waves?"

Li Qiufeng held the handle of the knife tightly with his right hand, walked down the steps step by step, and finally reached the bank of Neijinshui River.I saw that the five Jinshui bridges are all arched and carved with white marble, which is extremely delicate.When Li Qiufeng was on duty in the palace, he walked across the Jinshui Bridge countless times, but even during the Grand Ceremony of the Hall of Supreme Harmony every year, he was never as nervous as he is now.

He took a long breath, walked slowly onto the golden water bridge in the middle, and walked forward step by step.

Liu Yong and others stood on the steps of the Meridian Gate, looking at Li Qiufeng nervously.Murong Danyan has pulled out the long sword behind his back, and still has three silver needles clasped in his left hand.Liu Yong is not as reckless as Murong Danyan.He took out a Zhentianzi, and grabbed the lead rope with his right hand.This is because the Meridian Gate is dozens of steps away from the other side of the Neijinshui River, and if Li Qiufeng is in danger, it is too late to rush there to rescue him.Therefore, he must first attack with Zhentianzi to force the enemy back, and then draw his sword to meet him.

Li Qiufeng walked to the middle of the Jinshui Bridge, at the highest end of the arched bridge deck, and could clearly see the situation on the other side of the Inner Jinshui River.Under the starlight, there were countless sergeants in full armor holding swords and guns, lined up layer upon layer.The tens of thousands of troops were majestic, and an invisible pressure approached from the other side of the Neijinshui River.Even though Li Qiufeng was always calm, at this time the two forces were fighting, and he couldn't even take a step forward.

Murong Danyan stood on the steps, watching Li Qiufeng walk down the steps step by step, and then slowly walked up the Jinshui Bridge.Every time Li Qiufeng took a step, her heart beat suddenly, and in the end, it seemed that her heartbeat was inseparable from Li Qiufeng's steps.When Li Qiufeng walked up to the top of the arch bridge and stopped, Murong Danyan's heart seemed to jump out of his chest, and he thought to himself: "I will never let Brother Li take risks alone!" Thinking of this, She couldn't bear it anymore, she held the long sword in her right hand, and with a touch of both feet, she was about to jump over to help punch.
