Chapter 136: The Mandarin Duck Formation shows its power, Zeng Anmin recites "Sending Off the Sergeants"

Military formation.

Whether in past or present life.

They are both formations that can produce tremendous power when two armies fight.

Take the history that Zeng Anmin knows as an example.

In the past, Japanese pirates were rampant along the southeastern coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty.

The famous general Qi Jiguang created a military formation based on the characteristics of the southeastern coastal areas, which are full of hills and gullies, crisscrossing rivers and canals, narrow roads, and the combat characteristics of Japanese pirates.

What is even more coincidental is that the Japanese pirates are the same as the current demon tribe.

They are very good at fighting in this small space, but their disadvantage is that they are poor and lack armor and soldiers.

Several features add up.

Zeng Anmin was eager to try it out. If he formed this formation himself, what kind of power would it have?!

Things have come to this.

Passing the imperial examination was no longer Zeng Anmin's goal.

There was a light in his eyes that made people dare not look directly at him.

Whether it is his character or killing monsters, he can do it in the illusion array.

So passing the scientific examination was too easy for him.

Now, he wanted to try through the illusion array to see if his array, the Mandarin Duck Formation, could be as devastating as the Ming Dynasty general Qi Jiguang was when he killed the Japanese pirates!

“Huh~”

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath.

Suppressing the urgency in my heart.

Think carefully first. The most important thing in forming a mandarin duck formation is...

Zeng Anmin slowly raised his head and looked towards a bamboo forest not far ahead.

The bamboo in the south is extremely thick, and there are forks on the top of the bamboo that are similar to tree trunks. These forks are also extremely tough. After being sharpened, each forked branch can become a weapon to penetrate the flesh and blood body.

And this weapon is the most important core of the Mandarin Duck Formation!

Wolf whisk!

Each wolf-whip is about 3 meters long. The wolf-whip holder uses the sharp blade at the front of the wolf-whip to stab the enemy to cover the advance of the shield bearer and the attack of the spearman behind.

But before that...

Zeng Anmin slowly turned his head.

His eyes looked towards the steep and dangerous terrain below.

The mountain is on a slope, but the terrain is not dangerous enough.

In other words, if he had an army of 10,000.

If all of them form a mandarin duck formation, they will definitely be able to produce huge effects between these mountains.

But now, including myself, there are only fifty soldiers in total.

If we encounter a large enemy force on this gently sloping mountain road, we will probably be in trouble.

He was not so arrogant as to think that after forming the Mandarin Duck Formation, he could move freely among the troops.

That's stupid arrogance.

"If you want to go down the mountain, is there a more dangerous path?"

Zeng Anmin looked at a strong man among the soldiers.

The voice is very deep.

If only there were a more dangerous mountain road.

He was confident that he could maximize the advantages of the Mandarin Duck Formation!

Although the road under their feet was barely passable, it was still too wide for the forty soldiers led by Zeng Anmin.

"have!"

After hearing Zeng Anmin's words, a strong man stood up to answer.

But his eyes were a little confused.

He looked at Zeng Anmin with great confusion.

Zeng Anmin did not keep the secret, but said in a deep voice:

"There are countless demon tribes in this mountain. If we were to confront them on this relatively wide mountain path, there would be no way we could escape."

"So if you want to survive, you have to take a more difficult mountain path."

Zeng Anmin's voice was solemn.

only……

"You may not know much about military affairs."

A strong man looked at Zeng Anmin with a wry smile: "We all know what you said."

"But the power of the mountains is like a fish swimming in water to the people of the demon race."

"They have lived in the mountains since birth. No matter how dangerous the terrain is, it is like flat ground to those animals."

"So, if we encounter the demon army on the mountain road, even if it's just a small force, we will be no match for them..."

The more the man spoke, the quieter his voice became.

Obviously, the morale boosted by Zeng Anmin was only temporary.

Zeng Anmin's words showed that he knew nothing about military affairs.

The morale that had just been aroused dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Everyone was silent.

Zeng Anmin naturally felt all of this.

After listening to it, he just nodded slowly, and then a smile appeared on his face.

Then he started laughing slowly: "Hahahahahaha!"

The laughter was long, confident, and unhurried.

Hearing his laughter, all the soldiers were stunned.

They all looked at him in confusion.

After Zeng Anmin finished laughing, he straightened his chest and spoke with unparalleled confidence:

"I have a plan. After forming it, if we encounter a demon army on a dangerous mountain road, we can guarantee victory without any defeat!"

When he said this, there was a look of arrogance in his eyes, like a peerless warrior!

"What formation?"

Everyone was at a loss.

"This formation was learned from Sai Chuxue, a disciple of Master Xu Tianshi of the Xuanzhen Division!"

Zeng Anmin pretended to be profound, with a proud look on his face:

"However, if I were to assemble this formation, it would cost me a great deal. If it weren't for this critical moment, I wouldn't have taken it out."

Zeng Anmin also knew that if he wanted to reignite morale now.

The only way is to use the tiger's skin to raise the banner.

Um?

Xuanzhen Division?

Xu Tianshi's disciple? ?

After hearing Zeng Anmin's words.

Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

The Xuanzhen Division is an extremely eye-catching living signboard in the Great Sage Dynasty.

Xu Tianshi is an old immortal, and all of his disciples are young immortals.

A ray of hope flickered in the eyes of every soldier.

"Come with me."

Zeng Anmin didn't say much to them, but just led the way towards the bamboo forest.

Not long.

He had already cut down a bamboo that looked very good.

The fine knife in his hand shaved the bamboo heads into sharp points.

It works very quickly.

A top-quality wolf spear appeared in his hand.

The wolf spear is three meters long and feels like a giant umbrella when held in the hand.

"You all, listen to my command and cut ten identical pieces of this thing."

Zeng Anmin spoke in a deep voice, looking at the soldiers who followed him, with majesty in his voice.

Subconsciously.

The soldiers obeyed his orders and completed them at an extremely fast speed.

It is obvious, whether in terms of status, words, or actions.

In a very short time, Zeng Anmin had suppressed this group of soldiers and they vaguely recognized him as the leader of this group.

This is an excellent phenomenon.

Not long.

The strange-looking wolf figure has been made.

"Very good, now we will form a team of 11 people."

"The captain is in the front, followed by two people, one holding a long card and the other holding a round card."

"Holding a long shield, they block the arrows and spears of the demon tribe..."

Zeng Anmin did not hesitate.

Time is limited, and he must bring the best out of these soldiers within this limited time.

Fortunately, the soldiers following him on this mountain were all veterans.

Extremely disciplined.

Also very obedient.

Moreover, everyone was equipped with a full range of weapons, armor, shields and spears.

Although there was no rattan shield, there was a round shield instead.

Zeng Anmin looked at the two people at the outermost edge and handed over the two wolf spears in his hand:

"Two more people will hold wolf whisks."

Then he looked at the team of eleven people in front of him.

There was a flicker of excitement in his eyes.

Mandarin Duck Formation!

It is almost exactly the same as the Mandarin Duck Formation in his memory!

"This formation is called the Mandarin Duck Formation!"

Zeng Anmin pointed at the eleven-man square formation and said to the remaining soldiers:

"It was created by Master Xu Tianshi of the Xuanzhen Division, specifically to restrain the demons on the mountain roads!"

"It's only because I have a good relationship with that Miss Sai that I was able to hear this. You all must remember, if you want to walk out of this mountain alive today, you must not reveal a single word!"

At this point, Zeng Anmin's eyes narrowed, and his voice became dangerous:

"If not, I will not forgive you!!"

"Did you hear that?!"

His voice was like thunder.

“I heard it!!”

There was even excitement on the faces of all the sergeants.

Be good!

The formation created by the old immortal Xu!

There is help!

There is salvation!!

At this point, no one doubted Zeng Anmin's words anymore.

See their performance.

Zeng Anmin felt relieved.

It's hard for him to hear that, really.

For morale and military spirit.

He used coaxing, deception, threats and inducements!

It’s really not easy!

"Start forming the formation now!"

Zeng Anmin waved his hand.

He looked towards the remaining soldiers.

There was an unquestionable look on his face!

"yes!!"

Subconsciously, the remaining soldiers regarded Zeng Anmin as their leader.

They all answered.

They even gave him a military salute.

Soon, four identical mandarin duck formations gathered together.

A solemn and murderous aura slowly condensed from the military formation.

"Wang Erma! Didn't you just say there was an even more dangerous mountain path?"

Zeng Anmin looked towards the man.

As I said before, in order to unleash the maximum power of the Mandarin Duck Formation.

You must take the most dangerous mountain path.

Of course, the most important thing is that if you walk on this wide mountain road under your feet, you will be entangled by a group of demon soldiers, and your fate will be to be dragged alive until the rest of the demon army arrives.

And then was annihilated...

"Reporting to the Military Supervisor, the mountain path is two miles to the south!"

With Zeng Anmin's help, everyone's desire to survive is now very strong.

There was even fanaticism in Wang Erma's eyes when he looked at Zeng Anmin.

"Walk!"

…………

Outside the illusion array.

Sai Chuxue looked at the scroll in the formation with a confused look on her face.

A big question mark appeared in my mind.

"When did I teach him this kind of formation?"

"My Xuanzhen Division only has formation techniques, how can there be a military formation?"

But at this moment, many people in the field were already looking at her.

She was socially anxious and could only block it with a cold and serious face.

Without saying a word.

He raised his head calmly and continued to look at the huge scroll in the air.

…………

"arrive!"

The four armies marched for less than half an hour before arriving at an extremely steep mountain road.

With this half-hour walk.

The newly established Mandarin Duck Formation is becoming increasingly smoother.

They are veterans of many battles. Although the formation is unfamiliar to them, they can unleash its power after getting familiar with it a little.

The moment I saw this mountain path.

Zeng Anmin's eyes lit up.

The steep mountain path can only accommodate three or four people walking side by side at the same time!

Like a goat's intestine, it stretches all the way to the foot of the mountain!

But for the Mandarin Duck Formation, this is simply a dream come true!

Look at this steep mountain road.

The soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Formation all felt a chill in their hearts.

They have fought against the demon tribe.

Naturally, everyone knew what would happen if the Great Sage's army encountered the demon army on this kind of mountain road.

They were originally somewhat confident.

At this time, the enthusiasm on his face slowly subsided.

The stool is a little uneasy.

Zeng Anmin had no expression on his face.

He looked at the soldiers indifferently.

He knew that he had to say something at this time to encourage the sergeant again.

Without hesitation, he slowly picked up a wolf sword.

From the back of the formation, slowly walk to the front of the formation.

"Remember what I said before?"

"If we encounter a demon army, I will lead the charge!"

"Follow me!!"

"Now, it's time for me to fulfill my promise!"

As he spoke, he had already walked into the front of the formation.

"If I have to die, I'll be the first one to die!"

Zeng Anmin's voice was extremely steady.

But everyone can hear it.

The soldiers' bodies all trembled slightly.

"General Zeng, that's what you said, but you are the most familiar with this formation. If you die, we will definitely be fish on the chopping board..."

"Yeah, you just stand in the back and give orders. Let us do the killing!"

…

Obviously, as an army that has experienced many battles, they know that if the leader dies, the morale will be gone.

Zeng Anmin's face showed indifference.

"I am a Confucian and Taoist monk, with a breath of righteousness in my heart."

"This great and righteous spirit is not the energy of heaven and earth!"

He took a deep breath and looked forward:

"It's integrity! It's righteousness!"

"I'm not arguing with you."

"The righteous spirit of the Great Lord has a very obvious restraining effect on the demon race, so it is most appropriate for me to take the lead in this formation!"

Zeng Anmin had just finished speaking.

Then I heard a very strange wolf howl not far away.

“Ouch!!!!”

The sound of wolves howling is extremely strange in this mountain.

It makes one's scalp tingle when listening to it.

"Enemy troops are here!!"

All the soldiers' eyes were fixed, and they held their weapons tightly.

“Wow~”

Looking down along the long mountain path.

A team of about thirty people rushed towards here at a very fast speed.

Very fast!

They can walk on this steep mountain road as if it were flat ground! !

As they approached.

Zeng Anmin saw it very clearly.

Human body, wolf head, each figure has bloodthirsty eyes.

Although there is still some distance.

But Zeng Anmin seemed to have smelled the fishy stench in their mouths following the wind.

"Keep your formation! Prepare to meet the enemy!!"

Zeng Anmin was in the formation, looking at the team of wolf-headed humans approaching from the front.

There was a gleam in his eyes.

Hearing his words, everyone subconsciously stood up straight.

At this point, there is no point in saying anything more.

Meeting the enemy is the key!

"Boom, boom, boom."

Everyone's heart was pounding.

Zeng Anmin took advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the two armies met and suddenly raised his voice and said:

"Everyone, the war is about to begin. Are you afraid?!"

“Don’t be afraid!!”

In response to him, there was a chorus of sounds, like thunder!

"Hahaha!!!"

Zeng Anmin laughed wildly, raised the long wolf spear in his hand, and said in a suddenly high voice:

"The general marched south with great courage, carrying the Autumn Water Goose Feather Sword on his waist."

"The wind blows the crocodile drum, the mountains and rivers shake, the lightning flashes the flags and the sun and the moon rise high."

"The unicorn in the sky has its own species, how can the ants in their holes escape?"

"On the day Taiping returns home, I will take off my battle robes with you all."

Wait until he finishes speaking.

The enemy is approaching!!

Only...Kill!!!
