Chapter 264 Array Diagram
"Great! This is truly a stroke of luck!"
"General Li, please quickly pass on the battle formation diagram to our soldiers so they can familiarize themselves with the formation as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing Li Yixin's words, Prince Qi stood up excitedly.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I will personally guide the soldiers in practicing the formations to ensure they master them as soon as possible."
Li Yixin smiled slightly and replied.
However, not all the generals present were blindly optimistic.
"General Li, since this battle formation is so ingenious, why have you never mentioned it before?"
"Isn't it a bit suspicious that you're suddenly offering it up now?"
An old general at the lower seat frowned and asked in confusion.
"General, you are overthinking it. This formation diagram is indeed a secret of my sect, and it cannot be easily revealed unless it is a critical moment."
"The war situation is tense now, and I have decided to contribute it for the sake of the Qizhou army's victory."
Li Yixin was startled, but on the surface he remained calm and answered.
Well... he wasn't making things up.
This array diagram is indeed a rare secret passed down within their sect, possessing immense power.
The only question is whether the battle formation diagram sent to Qi Jun will be complete.
That requires further consideration.
"General Li is of utmost sincerity, and for the safety of Qizhou, he did not hesitate to reveal his sect's secret teachings."
"We should be grateful to him; how can we doubt his intentions?"
Prince Qi also quickly defended Li Yixin.
Tsk... He cares more than Li Yixin.
The veteran general, though still harboring doubts, listened to these words.
But seeing how excited Prince Qi was, he couldn't say anything more.
After all, the Qizhou army urgently needs new tactics to turn the tide of the battle.
At this moment, laughter and chatter filled the council hall of Qizhou. King Qi and a group of generals were sitting around a map, enthusiastically discussing the battle formation diagram newly presented by Li Yixin.
His face was filled with long-lost joy and anticipation, as if he could already see the dawn of victory.
However, in a corner of the tent, a young general frowned, his gaze complex as he stared at the battle formation on the map, a sense of unease surging within him.
He saw through Li Yixin's sinister intentions. This array diagram, which everyone regarded as a treasure, was full of traps and flaws in his eyes.
The young man's lips moved as if he wanted to remind everyone, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
He knew that he was a nobody and that even if he spoke, his words would only be considered nonsense.
This could even lead to unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, Prince Qi and others placed high hopes on Li Yixin, regarding him as Qizhou's lifeline.
They were so engrossed in the illusion of impending victory that they were completely unaware of the potential crisis.
How could I possibly shatter their beautiful dream at this moment?
The young man felt bitter; he knew he couldn't change anything and could only choose to watch coldly from the sidelines.
Furthermore, this young general knew in his heart that Prince Qi was not the wise ruler he admired.
He had witnessed Prince Qi's autocratic rule in handling state affairs and his ruthless suppression of dissidents.
Moreover, he lacked ambition, was shrewd and ungrateful.
Is such a monarch truly worthy of one's loyalty?
Although he was in Qijun, he often felt confused and helpless, not knowing who he was serving or what he was fighting for.
In this state of mind, he was even less willing to express his opinions easily, and simply stood quietly to the side, observing everything with a cold eye.
His gaze fell once again on the array diagram on the map.
Those intricate lines and symbols seemed to transform into hideous faces in his eyes, mocking the ignorance and blindness of the crowd.
He took a deep breath, silently minimizing his presence, and quietly moved his feet away.
He then turned and strode out of the hall, letting the laughter and chatter behind him fade into the distance.
Immersed in their joy, Prince Qi and the others failed to notice that a seemingly insignificant person was missing from the hall.
In the days that followed, Li Yixin began to personally instruct the soldiers in practicing the "Dragon and Snake Heavenly Might Formation".
His explanations were both profound and easy to understand, allowing the soldiers of the Qizhou army to quickly grasp the essence of the formation.
However, during the teaching process, he deliberately obscured certain key points in order to throw the Qizhou army into chaos during the battle.
As the soldiers of Qizhou Army gradually became familiar with the formations.
Li Yixin also began to secretly plan how to use this formation to achieve his own goals.
Once the battle begins, the Qizhou army will become victims under his control.
As the soldiers of Qizhou gradually became familiar with the battle formations, their confidence and morale also increased day by day.
Under the call of Prince Qi, the entire army was united and prepared for the upcoming decisive battle.
Meanwhile, Li Jing, Xue Rengui, Qin Qiong, and other armies were also advancing rapidly.
In recent days, the army led by Li Jing and others has been advancing with unstoppable momentum, capturing more than a dozen cities in succession. Wherever they go, the enemy flees in terror.
Their tactics were flexible and varied, sometimes using feints to the east and attacks to the west, and sometimes besieging a point to catch reinforcements, keeping the Qizhou army busy and unable to put up an effective resistance.
Each time they conquer a city, they receive a large amount of supplies and manpower.
This made them stronger and their morale higher.
Finally, the several armies joined forces in front of the Qizhou army's main camp and marched in a mighty procession toward the Qi King's main camp.
The day of the decisive battle has finally arrived.
The Qizhou army deployed the "Dragon and Snake Heavenly Might Formation" in an attempt to counter Li Jing and his Cangzhou army.
On the battlefield, the two armies faced each other, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
When Li Jing and the others saw the novel battle formation set up by the Qizhou army, they couldn't help but frown.
From a distance, the entire formation resembles a giant dragon and a giant snake coiled on the battlefield.
They danced together on the battlefield, their imposing presence inspiring awe.
The dragon's head was raised high, as if it were about to break through the clouds, displaying the mighty power of the Qizhou army.
The dragon's body is winding and twisting, like a giant dragon coiling on the battlefield, displaying boundless majesty and power.
The snake's tail, on the other hand, is agile and cunning, always ready to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
Prince Qi stood on the high platform, overlooking the entire "Dragon and Serpent Heavenly Might Formation," his eyes gleaming with excitement.
The entire "Dragon and Serpent Heavenly Might Formation" occupied a vast battlefield, resembling a boundless ocean of dragons and serpents.
Sunlight shone on the armor of every soldier, reflecting a dazzling light that made the entire formation even more radiant.
Banners fluttered, and swords and spears gleamed coldly.
This is one of the key weapons that their Qizhou army has been practicing for days.
He believed that if used properly, it would be enough to terrify the Cangzhou army.
The essence of the "Dragon and Snake Heavenly Might Formation" lies in its infinite variations and its combination of offense and defense.
The dragon's head section consisted of elite cavalry, who, like the dragon's claws, were swift and sharp, responsible for charging into battle and disrupting the enemy's formation.
The snake's body is composed of infantry and archers.
Like the scales of a snake, they were tightly packed and orderly, responsible for holding their ground and resisting the enemy's attack.
At this moment, under the command of Li Yixin in the rear, the "Dragon and Snake Heavenly Might Formation" began to operate slowly.
The cavalrymen spurred their horses, the infantrymen gripped their weapons, and the archers drew their bows and nocked their arrows.
The entire formation is like a sophisticated machine, with each component performing its own function and working together in combat.
