Chapter 176: Battle Without Horizontal Formation (2)
Suddenly, the drums of war thundered, and the horns soared into the sky, piercing the dawn in the east.Qi's army waved out a red banner behind the formation, with a big "Qi" embroidered in the center.Qi Jiguang immediately raised his flag, pointing his long sword eastward, and the army lined up to the east.That was where the bandit army was weak, and they were in chaos immediately.Qi Jiguang's long sword pointed to the south, the banner moved forward, the army circled around, and the two mandarin duck formations circled behind the southern bandit army, forming three talents with Qi's army in front of the formation, attacking back and forth.The thieves were attacked by the enemy with their backs and abdomens, and the situation was chaotic. They shouted for their parents and mothers, and ran for their lives. Some people jumped into the water in a panic and were shot to death by Qi Jun's random arrows.

Suddenly, there was a strange howl, suppressing the fighting.Qiu Shi rushed down from the southern hillside like a bolt of black electricity, the hundreds of people around him behaved strangely, their left foot stepped first, and then their right foot dragged.

Qi Jiguang's left sword drooped, and his right hand held up an apricot-yellow flag. He only heard the horn blare, and Qi's army's formation changed.The water ghost in front was forced by the wolf's trap, staggered to this side, and the water arrows in its mouth spewed upwards, bright white like a fountain.

At this time, dozens of knives players rolled out, the steel knives fluttered in snow, and they slashed against the ground. The water ghosts had their legs and feet broken and fell down one after another.

At this time, the water ghosts arrived from behind, and the sword players listened to the order and rolled back into the formation one after another. The water ghosts failed to chase the enemy, but were pulled by the bamboo formation and fell to the ground one after another.The mandarin ducks are in formation like birds, merging and parting again, revealing some gaps, only to hear the rapid sound of the guns, shooting out countless lead pellets.The water ghost was shot and swayed like intoxicated, but the wound did not bleed, but clear water flowed out.The bullets were exhausted, and the crossbow arrows came out again, tightly pressing the "Water Soul Formation", making it unable to move forward.

With a strange howl, Qiu Shi jumped up, surrounded by a turbulent ghost fog, and the thieves who were fleeing for their lives were wrapped in the fog, and all of them looked dull, and rushed forward.Seeing this, all the thieves were out of their wits, and they all knew that becoming a water ghost was worse than death, so they gave up the idea of ​​running away, and turned around to fight hard. Offensive blocked.

Qiu Shi used the water ghost as a flesh and blood shield, and once the old ghost died, he captured the new ghost.The number of water ghosts has never decreased, but the Qi family army is flesh and blood, fighting hard and exhausted.A wolf's chisel was a little slow to release the chisel, the mouth of the water ghost in front of him suddenly opened, and a water arrow took advantage of the gap and hit the man's face.The wolf's hand stared blankly, and the wolf's whisk swept across, sweeping away the comrades around him, and then sprayed out a stream of white saliva, hitting a spearman in the middle.The man also lost his mind, and shot backhand, nailing a palladium hand to the ground.

The general who took the lead was well aware of the strength and hurriedly ordered to retreat. Qiu Shi took the opportunity to drive away the water ghost and disrupt the Qi army's position.For a while, water arrows flew randomly, white light shot everywhere, and many officers and soldiers lost their minds.The formation of the water soul is like a broken bamboo, and it penetrates deeply into Qi's formation.The infantry fought in the heaviest formation. Once the formation was broken, the soldiers of the Qi army fought on their own, and immediately fell into a disadvantage.

All the businessmen were anxious when they saw it from the heights, Lan Yuanbei said: "Master Gu, the situation is not good!" Gu Zhen shook his head and fell silent.

Suddenly hearing the long sound of the horn, Qi Jiguang ordered the flag to wave again, and suddenly three mandarin ducks rushed up to block the "array of water souls".The leader was strong and fierce, and a wolf's stick danced like a sickle cutting grass, chopping down a piece of the water ghost in front of him.

"What a Wang Rulong!" Gu Zhen couldn't help but blurt out his praise, but seeing Wang Rulong's gestures, vaguely like Lu Jian's demeanor, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "If the eldest brother is here, how can we allow this surnamed Qiu to be rampant?"

Wang Rulong made a quick attack, Qi Jun stabilized his position, and the wolves showed their strength, sweeping a group of water ghosts into the river.At this time, a black shadow flashed, and Qiu Shi went straight to Wang Rulong. He was in mid-air, the mist gathered and then dispersed, scattered and then gathered again, his figure disappeared and reappeared, appeared and disappeared again, changing like a cloud and dragon, which is unpredictable.

Wang Rulong fought with him a few times, he knew that there were many murderous intentions in the clouds and mists, so he hurriedly danced the wolf wand away and stabbed upwards randomly.Qiu Shi is like riding a cloud and riding a fog. He is in the air, he can't hover, and with the help of the strong wind of the wolf's wand, he advances when he advances, and retreats when he retreats. His body seems to be glued to the whisk. , It is only a few feet away from Wang Rulong.Wang Rulong knew in his heart that he had bullied him into Zhang Zhang, the wolf wand was too long and would not be able to move properly, so he shouted loudly, waved the long bamboo with his left hand, and took over a shield with his right hand.

With the shield in hand, white light flashed in front of his eyes, Wang Rulong raised the shield to block it, "Dang", the water sword hit the shield, the sound was like gold and iron, and a piece of pearly white water burst into the sky.Qiu Shishui's sword was useless, he advanced several feet, and the fog around him became thicker.Wang Rulong's hands were not empty, he just felt it was difficult, two long spears pierced through the air behind him, Qiu Shi flicked his sleeves, each shot a water sword from the bottom of the sleeves, the two gunmen's chests were spattered with blood, and they fell to the ground exhausted.

Wang Rulong witnessed the tragic death of his comrade, his eyes were bloodshot, he abandoned the wolf whisk, and rolled forward on the ground.The only thing Qiu Shi was afraid of was the wolf whisk. Seeing that he had lost his weapon, he secretly rejoiced. He was about to turn around and chase after him, but Wang Rulong rolled halfway and grabbed the front of the wolf whisk with his hand. With a "hoo", the bamboo pole swept across like a wheel several feet.

Wang Rulong turned on the wolf wand, unexpectedly, Qiu Shi was caught off guard, his ankle was rubbed by the wolf wand, if it wasn't for the "Phaseless Water Armor" to protect him, his ankle would almost be shattered.He endured the pain, and with the force of this rubbing, he floated out across his body, and killed two officers and soldiers with two palms. Before he could attack again, Wang Rulong turned his wolf trap and fought hard to kill them.Qiu Shi missed the good opportunity to kill Wang Rulong, and he cried out in his heart that it was a pity, he let go of a round of bird guns, and lightly tapped his feet on a wolf's chisel, like a big black crane, passing the crowd, and went straight to the handsome man in front of him. flag.

Wang Rulong couldn't help crying, and shouted: "Get out of the way." He straightened out the wolf's whisk, parted the crowd, chased after Qiu Shi, and the bamboos stabbed wildly towards the sky.Chou Shi flew in the air, unable to use his strength, unable to withstand such a violent move, he fell before he was ten feet away, and when he landed, he kicked up a soldier with a gun, causing him to vomit blood.Qiu Shi grabbed the spear, screamed strangely, and threw it at Qi Jiguang.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Qi Jiguang turned over and fell off the horse. Blood burst out for a moment, and the spear pierced through the horse's neck.When the thieves saw it, they couldn't help but cheered in unison.

Qi Jiguang stood up and looked up. Wang Rulong led two mandarin duck formations to surround Qiu Shi. There were very few water ghosts in the formation, but the bandits outside the formation were full of arrogance.

Suddenly hearing the sound of cannons on the river turning sharp, Qi Jiguang turned his head and looked around. The "Demon Dragon" broke into the army's water village with a dazzling golden light.Hundreds of guns on the ship fired together, and tongues of fire spit out wildly, and the grain ships were hit by cannons and sank one after another. The "Magic Dragon" swung its oars straight ahead as if there was nothing beside it. Seeing that it was approaching the shore, Qi Jiguang hurriedly waved the command flag, and the drums and trumpets sounded in unison.Qi Jiguang then let out a long roar, danced his long sword, and led his own soldiers into the battle group.Seeing the commander-in-chief go to battle, the generals of the Qi army were filled with a sense of tragedy.

Ayes intended to use the power of artillery to bombard Qi's battle formation, but Qi Jiguang responded accordingly, dispersed the army, and fought in a melee with small mandarin duck formations. I don't even know where to start.

"Master Gu." Zhao Shouzhen became anxious, "If you don't fight any more, the general situation will go away." Gu Zhen shook his head and said, "The opponent's tricks haven't been used up yet." If you initiate a war, you will never be spared."

He affirmed the military law, and there was a moment of silence on the hillside.

Suddenly, Qiu Shi drifted back, took out a rocket and fired it into the sky, a red light streaked across the slope and dawn was clear, and there were rustling sounds in the south of the mountain, and thousands of Japanese pirates stood up, all wearing ghost masks and heavy armor , crying wolf in his mouth, brandishing a long knife and rushing into the battlefield.

It turned out that the opponent expected that Qi Jiguang would come for a decisive battle, and Cang Bingwei selected the elite to go out of the camp and lie in ambush in the mountain depression.Therefore, the right battalion was empty, and Qi Jiguang collapsed as soon as he charged, and then fought fiercely with Qiu Shi.The two sides were exhausted from the battle, and the Cangbing guards stood out, thinking that in this way, the battle situation could be locked.

For other officers and soldiers, if they encounter such a method, they will inevitably be shocked and flee.However, the training of Yiwu soldiers was extremely strict, and Qi Jiguang's military skills were as high as a mountain, and those who turned back before the battle were beheaded.Seeing the ambushes coming, they didn't panic, and turned the mandarin duck formation to fight as before.On the contrary, when the bandit army saw the ambush, they were overjoyed and slack in their hearts. The Qi army took advantage of the chaos and fought hard, killing them without counting.

The mandarin duck formation is divided into two parts in the middle, and the left and right sides suddenly change to three talents. When the enemy moves, the three talents immediately merge into one and attack them together.

Zhao Shouzhen saw it from a distance, and asked in surprise, "Master Gu, how do you know that there are still ambushes?" Gu Zhen said with a smile: "There are birds flying and falling in the nearby mountains and forests, but the birds hovering above that mountain depression never land." Zhao Shouzhen sighed: "Master Gu, isn't he afraid that the ambush will stand out and the officers and soldiers will be defeated?"

Gu Zhen shook his head and said: "I saw the Yiwu soldiers trained with my own eyes. General Qi's generation of generals, like Yue Fei back then, said, 'It is easy to shake the mountains, but difficult to shake the Yue family's army!' Such generals, once in the In a desperate situation, not only will it not be shocked, but it will also give rise to the spirit of mourning soldiers. This is the reason why mourning soldiers must win."

Zhao Shouzhen nodded again and again when he heard that, Gu Zhen smiled, and asked again: "Brother Zhao, in your opinion, how do we compare with Yiwu soldiers?" Zhao Shouzhen smiled wryly: "Then how do we compare? We mobs can only die if we go! "

Gu Zhen shook his head and said: "Brother Zhao, don't underestimate yourself. Yiwu soldiers are like tigers. When tigers are injured, their ferocity doubles. We mobs can't be tigers, but can be hornets." Zhao Shouzhen asked strangely, "hornets?" Gu Zhen laughed: "Now Two armies fighting are like two strong men wrestling, each of them has used up all their strength. If at this time, one of them gets stung on the back by a hornet, what do you think will happen?" Zhao Shou really understood, laughed and said: "Does that still matter?"

Gu Zhen looked at the battlefield with a smile, and raised his black eyebrows: "Today's play is very famous, and it is called: Qi Huo bravely fights a strong enemy, Gu Horn makes a great contribution." He stood up with a smile, and waved his hand, " Get on the horse and fire the cannon." Everyone was eager to fight, and after waiting for this sentence for a long time, they responded in a hurry and mounted their horses one after another.

The sky is just dawning, the night has just disappeared, the western sky is gone, the east is full of red light, the vast river is condensed with fire and melted with gold, and the mountains on both sides are purple and green, and the rivers and mountains are like pictures, dyed with a touch of moving splendor.

The earth cannon aimed at the rebel army and fired three shots in a row. The fire and smoke came out together, and the iron filings and lead pellets flew together. The rebel army was attacked from behind, and the situation was chaotic for a while. , People and horses disappeared in the smoke and dust, and I don't know how many tens of thousands came.

Gu Zhen tied the branches behind the horse's tail, stirred up the dust, and bluffed. Although there were only two hundred riders, he had the aura of thousands of horses.The thief army suddenly saw the cavalry swooping down, and when the Qi army was fighting hard, they suddenly received reinforcements, their spirits were lifted, and their momentum became more and more fierce.

Gu Zhen took the lead and rushed into the formation.With the "eight powers of circulation" in his body, he is rampant and unscrupulous, and he will go wherever the danger is. He gallops his horse and wields his knife to charge and kill the densely populated areas of the enemy.His whole body's "mountain energy" swelled, he was invulnerable to swords and guns, and hard to hurt by arrows. When the saber in his hand fell, the heads of the enemy soldiers rolled around.Once the mob of bandit army was attacked by the enemy, their fighting spirit disappeared immediately. Ten or six of them fled without fighting, and only three or four were killed by the officers and soldiers.

Gu Zhen was in the midst of his charge, his aura suddenly moved, the thought moved extremely fast, he subconsciously dodged, and a white light shot towards him.Gu Zhen moved away from most of it, but still a little splashed on his face, he felt a stench, and accompanied by a numb itching, the horse that sat down screamed and stumbled, knocking him off.Gu Zhen rolled to the ground, knowing that he had been poisoned by the water, followed by a gust of cold air passing over his cheeks and heading straight to the top of his head.

This cold air comes from the water ghost, although it has mutated, it still belongs to the "flowing water force", once it enters Gu Zhen's body, the water force becomes stronger immediately.Gu Zhen has long been proficient in dealing with this matter. The dantian is like a gossip fairy furnace, which destroys the strong and strengthens the weak, and the water poison is eliminated in a blink of an eye.

He detoxified the water, looked up, and saw water ghosts swarming all around him, he couldn't help shouting, leaped out with "elvis steps", and stabbed a water ghost in the chest with a knife.The steel knife entered the body, and clear water gushed out, flowing along the blade as if alive.Gu Zhen twisted his strength to refine the poisonous gas, and unconsciously released an electric force, which was sent into the body of the water ghost along the steel knife. White light flashed, the water ghost trembled twice, and fell to the sky, lifeless.

Gu Zhen's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be that 'Zhou Liu Dian Jin' can restrain the water ghosts?" Thinking about stabbing wildly with the knife, every time he stabbed, the electric power gushed out, and the water ghosts were hit by the knife, and they all fell to the ground stiffly.

In a blink of an eye, Gu Zhen stabbed more than a dozen water ghosts down, turned around and saw that the others did not have the "circumstances and eight strengths" to defend themselves, and fled here and there, in danger.As soon as he thought about it, he shouted sharply: "Chou Laogui, the master of your part, will you only let people be scapegoats? If you have the courage, compete with me!"

He said one word, stabbed him once, and when he finished speaking, he stabbed five water ghosts to death.Qiu Shi saw it from a distance, and felt puzzled. Gu Zhen was obviously poisoned by water, and not only was he safe and sound, but he was also able to assassinate water ghosts. Old ghost, I think you are a coward, besides using the water ghost as a shield, what other skills do you have? Ha, 'The river flows and stones don't turn', this nickname needs to be changed, it should be called a 'dirty coward'!"

Qiu Shi became more and more angry as he heard this, he jumped forward and shot two water swords with his hands, which struck Gu Zhen's chest like lightning.But hearing Yuanyuan's voice, as if hitting a rock, Qiu Shi was stunned: "Is this kid a mountain master?" Seeing Gu Zhen fall backwards, he immediately jumped to catch up, clawing like the wind, and buckled at his body throat.Gu Zhen raised his hand, and the two palms met, Qiu Shi only felt a surge of true energy penetrate his body, his whole body was numb with pain, and his heart almost jumped out.

"Zhou Liu Dian Jin?" Qiu Shi was startled again, and his actions slowed down a bit.Gu Zhen sent out a punch, the force of the punch brushed the feather cloak, and the crow feathers "chucked" into flames.

This punch is full of Zhou Liu Huo Jin.Qiu Shi hurriedly put out the fire with the water possessed by him.One must know that since ancient times, very few people in Xicheng have practiced two kinds of eight strengths. In this fight, Gu Zhen used three kinds of internal strengths in succession, which is simply unimaginable.Qiu Shi was amazed and frightened, and couldn't help jumping out backwards.
