Liu Qi, the eldest son of the Three Kingdoms

() It is the final battle formation, which is the final stage of decisive battle.After all the appetizers up front, this is the real main course. During the Autumn and Warring States period, Sun Tzu's Art of War and Sun Bin's Art of War were carried forward.During the Han Dynasty, it was the invention of the cavalry formation, which gave the Huns an advantage in attacking the Huns from the north.In the Three Kingdoms period, the princes fought in melee, and the formation once again showed his power.Among them, Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang are the best.A well-arranged formation can give full play to the combat effectiveness of the army and defeat the enemy.

Array training is an important method of governing an army in ancient times.Through cao training, the soldiers are taught the rules of advance and retreat, the rules of gathering and dispersing, so that they are familiar with various signals and commands, so that they can be ordered and prohibited in battle, and coordinated. Only in this way can the overall joint force be exerted.Formation training is an effective way to train the mob into an army.

"Do you know this formation?" This was the most common sentence Zhuge Cheng said when facing each other.Although the current Zhuge Liang is not as old-fashioned as he was back then, he still has a lot of research on formations.The Eight Diagrams Array was created by Sun Bin, a great military strategist during the Warring States Period. It is said that it was inspired by the Eight Diagrams in the Book of Changes, so it is also called the Eight Diagrams Array.

The specific formation is that the general is in the center, and a team of regular soldiers is deployed on each side, and four teams of mobile combat surprise soldiers are sent between the main soldiers, forming eight formations.The eight formations are scattered into eight, and then become one, and can be divided into 64 formations.Zhuge Liang spent several years improving it and turning it into his own eight formation map, which was used as a coach for soldiers to practice the formation.

Today is an eye-opener.Zhuge Liang lived in the formation, standing on a high platform, waving the flag in his hand.The soldiers moved accordingly, like flowing clouds and flowing water, without any sense of stagnation.Zhou Yu on the opposite side has also set up a formation, which is a four-door pocket formation, which can also be interspersed with each other to form a five tigers and sheep formation.

The formation is originally for the convenience of dispatching soldiers, and can form a unified defensive or offensive momentum.Therefore, the army formation can be attacked and defended, and it is unpredictable.This kind of tactical contest depends on the cleverness of the commanders.The Art of War says: Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. This is the truth.

Shuangfa spread out his posture and let the herald come forward to answer.The "Eight Diagrams" created by Zhuge Liang absorbed the arrangement and combination of Jingtian and Taoist gossip, and was compatible with astronomy and geography.Zhou Yu led Lu Meng and hundreds of soldiers to watch the formation and took a look.Zhou Yu returned to his own formation, speechless for a long time, and finally sighed: "If you are born Yu, why should you be born! I can't break this formation." She was very frustrated.

The composition of the "Eight Arrays" is based on the four lands of Qiankun and Xungen, which are the frontal formations of the heaven and earth, and the main soldiers.The northwest is the dry land, and the dry is the sky array.The one in the southwest is the land of Kun, and Kun is the land formation.The land in the southeast is the residence of Xun, and the Xun is the wind gust.The land in the northeast is Gen Ju, and the Gen is the mountain, and the mountains and rivers come out of the clouds, forming the cloud array, and the water, fire, gold and wood are the four strange arrays of dragons, tigers, birds and snakes, as the strange soldiers.

The formation is the sky covering (array) on the left, the earth carrying (array) on the right, Fengyang (array) in the front, and cloud hanging (array) in the back. Among them, the generals Huang Zhong, Zhang Fei, Xu Shu, and Li Yan lived there. Each led 64 pawns.The eight formations are also distributed in the general formation. The total formation is composed of 24 32 formations, plus 24 formations of rangers.There are 24 formations in each of yin and yang, 24 formations in yang and [-] formations in yin.There are [-] formations of guerrillas. After the [-]th formation, all marches, formations, joint battles, setting up doubts, filling vacancies, and logistics are all in the guerrillas.

The flying dragon, the wing of the tiger, the flying bird, and the coiled snake form a strange formation, as a strange soldier.Generals Zhang Xiu, Wei Yan, Huang Xu, and Xu Sheng led it.Three thousand cavalry each. Yinyang and Youbing Formation were led by Deng Zhi, Liao Li, Liao Hua, Hu Che'er and other school lieutenants.

The formation method is: line up between lines, line up between lines; the front is the rear, and the future is the front; advancing without speed, retreating without rushing; four heads and eight tails, the place where it touches is the head; the enemy rushes into it, and both ends are rescued; Mutual generation, cycle without reason; beginning and end corresponding, indistinct and unpredictable;

The method of eight formations, in one formation, two formations follow each other, one battle and one defense; the importance of Chinese and foreign, the joint of rigidity and softness, each other's falsehood, the host and the guest, the change of latitude and longitude, the cause of the foundation, the sudden advance of the odd cause, the interaction of multiple causes, and the logistics ensure.

Historically, the power of the eight formations can be regarded as one hundred thousand elites of the Wei Kingdom.Sima Yi's talent cannot break it.Now it's Zhou Yu's turn, unable to break the formation, Zhou Yu turned to Lu Su for help.Youdao is the gatekeeper Rao Zijing, and there is Zhou Lang in the water battle near the river.Although it is a joke, one can see Lu Su's talent.

Zhou Yu told Lu Su about it, and Lu Su thought for a long time before saying: "To break this formation, the two armies must fight together on cavalry and infantry. With a force of [-], nine generals are needed. The four generals will attack with [-] infantry. Its four main formations; the four sided generals led [-] cavalry to attack the four odd formations; another general and [-] elites were needed to take the opportunity to attack the weak points of the formation. I also observed it just now. There is a slight sense of sluggishness, probably because the generals in the formation are not familiar with the evolution of the formation."

Lu Su talked eloquently and eloquently for a long time, but Zhou Yu's dark complexion did not improve at all.Lu Su's way of talking, Zhou Yu didn't have any of them.Not enough soldiers, not many generals, no cavalry, how to break it.

This is still the most shocking, Lu Su continued: "If you break the formation according to what I said, the chance of winning is only [-]%."

Zhou Yu was shocked: "Why is the chance of winning so low?"

"Oh, this must be Zhuge Liang's new formation. It is different from the original Sun Bin Bagua formation. I can only vaguely see what it looks like. As for how it will change, I don't know. It depends on the adaptability of the generals who rushed to the formation. Already." Lu Su also said with a wry smile, and now he admires Zhuge Liang's talent.What a genius!No less than Sun Bin and Wu Qi back then.

Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Forget it, since I can't break his formation, let him break mine. Hmph, although my formation is simple, it also has secrets hidden in it. If the strength is equal, the outcome is unknown!"

The Jiangdong herald came to the front of the Jingzhou formation and said: "I, the governor of Jiangdong, said: Kong Ming is really an outstanding man in the world. I can't break this formation! Please Kong Ming to attack my formation. The formation that Zhou Yu has set up can be twice as large as Your own enemy army. You dare to fight."

Zhuge Liang in the formation laughed, his handsome face was full of pride.Smiling at Liu Qi, Pang Tong and the others: "This is Zhou Yu trying to squeeze me with words, let me not bully the few with more. Anyway, I will use [-] troops to defeat him with [-]. Let him be convinced that Zhou Yu lost. "

After finishing speaking, Kong Ming began to dispatch the army horses, or dance the flag, or beat the drum, or blow the horn, or ring the gold.Teams of soldiers stepped out of the formation neatly.The eight formations also changed accordingly, starting from defense to offense.Zhuge Liang looked at the situation in Jiangdong, observed for a while, and already had a plan in mind.
