As soon as the next day was clear, the soldiers and civilians in Jinan heard the sound of terrifying drums coming from the northwest outside the city.

War drum! During this period, the military and civilians in Jinan have heard this sound. This is the drum of invitation to fight that occupied the new affiliated army in Fengji Town. Just as the people in the whole city were worried, the gates of the military camp in the north of the city were wide open and flags were waving.

The flagpole was like a forest, and teams of infantry came out one after another. In the middle and rear of the team, there was a heavy cavalry team. Although there were not many people, the solemn and murderous aura made the face cold.

Two knights in this heavy cavalry team held up two flags. One flag read "The Chief of the Military and Horse Capital of Jinan Prefecture" and the other flag was embroidered with two refined tigers, biting each other's tails, forming a formation

In the middle of a circle is a big word "guan".

When Guan Sheng's unique iron helmet, fish scale armor, dawn horse, and heavy bent sword appeared, the people in the city finally felt relieved and ran around to tell each other. Many people burned incense and prayed, wishing Guan Qian's victory in the flag.

When the army passed by the long street, Guan Shengxiong, who was Gu Pansheng, keenly felt a few pairs of sharp eyes in the crowd. His eyes swept over and saw his clan's brother Guan Zhongyong and two men in regular clothes beside him.

With Guan Sheng's eyesight, you can see the extraordinaryness of these two men at a glance: the older man looked like lightning and his temperament was as handsome as he could tell at a glance that he was an official; the other young man had a figure

Majestic, over eight feet tall, standing out among the crowd. In such a cold day, she only wore a shirt and opened her laces to reveal her developed chest muscles, giving people a sense of explosive power all over her body.

Seeing Guan Sheng's eyes swept over, the older man just smiled and nodded slightly; while the young and majestic man had a bit of complex eyes, which was both admiring and eager to try.

Seeing this clan brother, Guan Sheng couldn't help but remember the silk book last night. His mouth moved, and he wanted his personal guard to call the clan brother over to ask clearly. But when the battle was about to come, he had to shake his head secretly, let go of this doubt for the time being, and wait for the battle.

Let’s talk about it when you return to the city later.

The hesitant expression on Guan Sheng's face naturally did not escape Zhang Rong's eyes. He whispered to Guan Zhongyong: "Is the silk book you mentioned that can determine the universe? Is it OK?"

Zhang Rong had also seen the silk book, but due to discipline, he had not read the contents. Therefore, he was deeply suspicious of what role this thin roll of silk could play.

Guan Zhongyong smiled meaningfully, glanced at Ma Kuo over there, and said two words with his ears: "King Ji."

Zhang Rong opened his mouth wide. He suddenly realized and couldn't help but smile and said, "Which guy came up with this idea? Well, I guess it's either Ling Yuan or Zhang Jiao..."

Indeed, if Guan Zhongyong didn't mention it, Zhang Rong almost forgot that there was a big man named King Ji Zhao Xu in Tianshu City. It would be fine if it was another prince, but this was Jinan, and that one was also

It is King Ji—yes, Jinan Prefecture is the fief of King Ji Zhao Xu.

Although the Song Dynasty did not impart the titles of kings and fiefs like the Han Dynasty in the previous dynasty or the Ming Dynasty in later generations, each prince or prince could still obtain the titles of the titles of the fiefs. For example, King Ji Zhao Xu,

He enjoyed the fief of 3,000 households in Jinan. Every autumn and winter, when the treasury was put into the treasury, the Ji Palace in Bianjing sent a special person to Jinan to collect rice, money and silk with seals.

Although Guan Sheng is a military post, he is not his turn to deal with these royal divisions. However, he has been a senior military officer in Jinan for more than ten years. The Jiwang Mansion transported a large amount of money and grain out of the city, so how could he not hand over the letter to the city garrison generals for verification.

?So it is not only the civil servant system in Jinan, but also the military commander of Guan Sheng, the military commander, and he is also very familiar with King Ji's seal letter.

The silk book that Guan Zhongyong handed over to Guan Sheng last night was a letter of persuasion written by King Ji. The signature not only included the seal of King Ji, but also the name of King Ji himself. Guan Sheng also specially found the Ji Wang who had been preserved before.

Compared with the sealing and the name-recording, the final confirmation is that the authenticity is real and the price is fake.

Why does the clan brother have a handwritten letter from King Ji? Where is King Ji now? What is the relationship between the clan brother and King Ji? This series of questions lingered Guan Sheng all night. If he hadn't been working hard for many years and had extraordinary physical strength, he would have been afraid

Today I am sluggish.

Guan Sheng originally wanted to send someone to invite Ma Kuo and Guan Zhongyong to come here today. First, to thank Ma Zhiyi for giving him yesterday, and second, to ask his clan brothers what happened to this silk book. Unfortunately, he planned it well early in the morning.

He was disturbed by the invitation from the Jin army.

Before the aura was gone, a sharp voice suddenly came from the top of the city: "I will wish Guan Zheng a victory in this battle and a great defeat to the enemy."

Guan Sheng looked up and saw the high city wall. Guo Zhen, the commander of the Yongsheng Army, smiled and bowed to him. Guan Sheng forced a smile, but knew that the other party was not sincere, but he had to raise his hand to return the greeting.

Guo Zhen supported the battlements of the city wall with both hands, looked at Guan Sheng's back as he was leaving, and a trace of red and vivid evil spirit flashed across his squinting eyes.

As soon as Guan Sheng left the city gate, he saw the new army that was lined up three miles away yesterday, with a crooked flag and a disorganized soldiers. The entire army was filled with a sluggish atmosphere. Obviously, this new army has not yet

Recover from yesterday's defeat shadow.

Under normal circumstances, if a new army is defeated, it will have to rest for ten or eight days, or even more than a month, otherwise morale will be difficult to recover. This was the case before. Whenever a new army suffered minor setbacks, it would have to rest for the whole three or five days.

The great defeat yesterday was not surprising to have a rest for a month without fighting. I just don’t know what medicine the leader of the new affiliated army took and was stunned, and even launched another attack the next day. With such a team of people with no aspirations

Isn’t the defeated army with fighting spirit sent to the mouth?

Guan Sheng has experienced a long battle and can tell at a glance that if this battle is not fought, it will be gone. Once the formation starts, the enemy will be defeated, and it will be a crushing defeat. For this period of time, the wing army led by Guan Sheng has been with the

This new affiliated army has been entangled. Although it has repeatedly defeated the enemy's offensive, it is difficult to have a decisive victory due to insufficient troops. Now the enemy seems to have given such a good opportunity to hand over.

However, could this be the enemy's trick? As a long-time general on the battlefield, Guan Sheng is not only brave, but also a lack of qualities that the general should have. He sent a scout and released dozens of miles.

Reconnaissance. At the same time, we sent familiar water soldiers to cross the river from the downstream of the Ji River to detect the movements of the Jin army base in Qihe County.

One hour later, the scout sent back the news that there was no ambush within 30 miles; in addition, the Jin army in Qihe did not move. Everything was so natural.

However, sometimes the more normal the situation seems, the more unexpected the murderous intention is. The current situation is that Guan Sheng, who has been fighting for more than ten years in Sha Zhan, is a little unsightly. In this world, no one will do the business that has lost money.

, no one will fight a battle that will be defeated. I really can't see through it! Only when I can't see through it can hesitate.

At this time, a heavy cavalry guard beside Guan Sheng leaned over and said, "The commander of the palace, the Bohai soldiers are gone... Could it be that the new affiliated army has failed to fight again and again, and the Jin barbarians have become disgusted with it because they have lost their powers and lost their losses.

Heart?"

Guan Sheng nodded slightly: "Maybe this is true. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain the situation in front of him... Well, soldiers should not stand for a long time, otherwise their morale will fall. Forget it. Let's take a gamble this time." Guan Sheng made a quick decision and waved his flag under him.

Order, "Transfer the order, arrange the geese-shaped formation, and today we must kill all the enemy troops in one fell swoop."

The so-called goose-shaped formation is a battle formation that is spread horizontally, with the left and right wings arranged forward or backward in a ladder. The forward shape is the shape of the "v", just like the two arms of a monkey extending forward, which is used to

The formation is surrounded by roundabout formations, but the defense at the rear is relatively weak. The backward arrangement is the inverted "v" shape, which protects the safety of the two wings and the rear and prevents the enemy from detouring.

Guan Sheng now arranges the geese-shaped formation with the "V" shape in the front, striving to encircle and detour and wipe out the enemy. His general, the heavy cavalry guard, is arranged in the rear, which can be used to defend against weak defenses, and can also be at the critical level.

At that time, it turned into a heavy blow and completely urged the enemy to destroy it.

Guan Sheng led a total of 15,000 troops in the wing army. In addition to Guo Zhen’s Yongsheng army, Jinan Prefecture had a total of 20,000 troops. Unfortunately, there were a lot of people, but except Guan Sheng’s.

In addition to the three thousand soldiers and horses he led, the other wing soldiers were either old or weak, traitors, or cowards, and could not stand the battle. These so-called military soldiers were barely able to defend the city on the top of the city.

It is best to use. If you force it to the battlefield, you are afraid that you will release the ducks before the fight begins.

Therefore, Guan Sheng had more than 10,000 troops in name, but the only one who could really come in handy was the three thousand soldiers in our mansion. After more than ten days of battle, his soldiers were killed and missing.

There were as many as a thousand people who fled... To be honest, the new soldiers they killed were not as many as this. If Guan Sheng had not been the old boss of these soldiers for more than ten years and had prestige,

The only unit in Jinan Prefecture that dared to go out of the city to fight the Jin army had long since dispersed.

As a unit that has been practicing for many years, not to mention the combat effectiveness, the formation is finally skillful, and it is still very fast to list a geese-shaped formation. In less than half an hour, the formation has been formed. In contrast to it, the distance is far away.

The new army was cold and hungry due to the long-term confrontation. At this time, the army lined up in front of the Jinan Xiang Army was forced by the murderous goose-shaped formation.

On a small earth slope behind the New Affiliated Army's array, more than ten riders were surrounded by a leather helmet and a chain mail. A large bow and quiver were hung beside the saddle, and a large gun was inserted directly into the air.

The general in the land.

At this time, a cavalry general behind the army looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but whisper: "Brother, this is not possible! Before we even started fighting, our army was in chaos. If we really fight, then that's not the case.

The slaughtered part…”

The military general, known as the eldest brother, was about thirty years old, had thick eyebrows, wide forehead, lion's nose and wide mouth, and the twisted beard under the jaw was like a steel needle, and there was flesh at every root. At first glance, he seemed to be a powerful general who was charging into battle. But his pair of

The tiny eyes, like blades, give people a very sinister feeling. This person is a mixture of courage and sinister, as "brave and brave" as history has evaluated.

The general of the army just said lightly: "That is not our brother, and it is also an order from General Pucha, so let them die."

The cavalry general said angrily: "It's a pity that our brothers are too few, only three hundred, only twenty cavalrymen, and they are not armored or equipped, so they can't fight against Guan Sheng's heavy cavalry team. If not, I really want to

It’s impossible to win or lose with that Guan Sheng…”

The general's face was slightly dark and said unhappy: "Three brother, don't have this idea. These three hundred powerful soldiers are the foundation of our lives. If we fight them all, in the eyes of the Golden Man, we will only be a few.

Just a defeated bandit. Remember, remember."

Just as he was speaking, the two thousand Jinan wing troops had already been pressed up, and the new army, which was still like a wolf and a tiger yesterday, became a sick cat at this moment. After shooting several rounds of arrows, it was difficult to stop the enemy.

When he rushed closer, he immediately scattered.

Just like yesterday, the New Army's retreat was cut back by the supervisory team in the rear. But unlike yesterday, this Supervisor was not the Bohai Cavalry, but a group of New Army soldiers dressed similarly to them.

This new army has a small number of people, only 300, but they all look fierce and have a tight formation. The front row holds swords and cards to hold the defeated soldiers; the back row holds a spear and stick and pokes forward.

The soldiers were constantly knocked down by them, but they were difficult to break through the formation of the supervising team. Under such circumstances, the retreat was barely stabilized. The front was also killed. The back was also killed. With no choice, the new army howled

He shouted and counterattacked at the Jinan Xiangjun. He heard carefully that the howling sound was filled with a desperate vibrato...

The number of new troops attached was comparable to that of the Xiang army. In the desperate counterattack, many soldiers of the Xiang army actually killed and injured, causing the Xiang army's offensive to be defeated.

Guan Sheng has been paying close attention to the battlefield. Seeing that the originally smooth battle was frustrated, he finally moved his eyebrows, raised his fingers, and made a gesture backward.

Under the service of the attendants and auxiliary soldiers, the thirty knights were wearing iron helmets and heavy armor, then stepped on the kickstand, and with the lifting of the attendants, they struggled to turn on the horse's back and took the long sword and stick. The attendants were from the feeding bag again

Take out a few handfuls of black beans and put them at the horse's mouth, and replenish the horse's materials for the last time. After completing all preparations, run quickly to both sides and give way to a wide horse path.

Guan Sheng slowly lifted the bent knife and pointed forward: "My sons, the attack that determines the outcome depends on our heavy cavalry team."

Thirty heavy cavalry raised their blades and shouted: "Magnificent! Magnificent! Thousand Victories! Thousand Victories!"

"Ha! Drive!" The heavy cavalry began to urge the horses and walked slowly.

Guan Sheng, the heavy cavalry, has always been his trump card for turning the battlefield. Of course, this so-called "heavy cavalry" is far from being compared with the "Iron Floating Tu" of the Jin Kingdom. The cavalry wore only fifty armor.

The weight of the pound is only equivalent to the weight of the archer armor. It is a big difference compared to the "Iron Floating Tu" wearing two layers of heavy armor, a full set of iron-faced helmets, and two-eye closed equipment that stops the exposure.

This is not because Guan Sheng’s heavy cavalry is not physically good enough or the armor is insufficient, but because the war horses are not good. The so-called “heavy cavalry” is not the key to people or equipment, but the gravity bearing of the war horses themselves. Because of the human body, equipment and weapons

The weight will eventually be transferred to the war horse. While carrying a "steel man", the war horse is also wearing a heavy equipment. Under such a heavy burden, it must maintain a certain sprint.

Power, this requires a very high quality of war horses.
