Chapter 956: Chapter 956: Zhao’er’s Longbow

The Meng Family has indeed made a profound mark in the history of China. You should know that Meng Wu was the Great Wall in the North of the Qin Kingdom, and as long as he was there, The Huns would never dare to cross the border of the Qin Kingdom.

Speaking of which, you too are a war enthusiast. This guy had played quite a few war games in his past and had a certain understanding of the famous historical generals in China’s history, naturally including the Meng Family.

At the same time, after the last battle, you had also deeply realized the lack of strength in the Great Tang Army, though this was only in comparison to the Qin Army, for the army of the Qin Kingdom was like a true lion. The Tang Empire had the advantage of numbers and numerous famous generals. However, when it came to the substance of their armies, the Qin Army would definitely surpass that of the Three Kingdoms; their soldiers truly deserved the glorious name of Fierce Soldiers.

In the battle against the Qin Soldiers, you noticed that once the Qin Soldiers engaged in battle, what appeared on every one of their faces was an extremely crazy countenance, their eyes nearly all red, and they were all fearless of death. In terms of stature, the Qin Soldiers were taller than the Tang Soldiers. They were more robust and more ferocious; by comparison, the Tang Soldiers were somewhat frail.

This may have something to do with the environment in which they grew up. In this world, the geographical location of the Tang Empire was in the east, by the sea; the actual size of the country was not much different from what was described in Chinese history. The geographical environment varied greatly, and the overall location was equivalent to the Song Dynasty in ancient Chinese history.

Meanwhile, The Great Han was located to the north and northwest of the Tang Dynasty, with the Qin Kingdom to the west and southwest, and beyond the Three Kingdoms, there were other smaller states.

You hadn’t seen the Han soldiers, but Luo Xin had told you that the overall strength of the Han soldiers was not much different from that of the Tang Army, each with its own advantages. However, the Tang Army also had the advantage of large numbers, while The Great Han and the Qin Kingdom, like the Tang, both had a fierce and valiant culture and had been coveting the rich lands of the Tang Dynasty for more than a day.

At this time, with the Qin Kingdom and The Great Han attacking the Tang Dynasty simultaneously, if one was not careful, it was very possible that the Tang Empire would vanish forever from the map of Central State. It could be said that victory was the only option for this war; if defeated, all Tang people would become a stateless subject.

You were naturally aware of the importance of this battle, and tomorrow you were to go into battle, but this time the force you were commanding was no longer fifty men but two thousand five hundred men.

A fifty-man team was easy to control; you could keep an eye on them just by turning your head. But two thousand five hundred men were another story.

Although you were full of theoretical experience, you had no practical experience to speak of, to put it bluntly, you were just a paper strategist and an intern.

Now that Cheng Chuliang had entrusted two thousand five hundred lives into your hands, you were a bit overwhelmed for the moment.

It wasn’t that you were trying to shirk responsibility, but rather it was an expression of concern for your own soldiers.

You had previously told your own squad that as long as you were alive, as long as their heads hadn’t been chopped off, you would do your utmost to save their lives. But now, there were too many of your soldiers, and you couldn’t possibly look after each and every one of them.

Therefore, knowing that action was just a last-minute effort, you still decided to try; otherwise, you might have a hard time falling asleep tonight because the bravery of the Qin Army had truly left a deep impression on you.

"Yes, it is because we are going up against Meng Tian that tomorrow’s battle is extremely important."

With these words, Cheng Chuliang turned around to leave, but at that moment, Wu Zhao walked up to Cheng Chuliang and whispered a few words to him. After listening, Cheng Chuliang first showed a puzzled expression, then nodded his head. Wu Zhao greeted you then left the camp with Cheng Chuliang.

Although you didn’t know what Wu Zhao was going to do, all you needed to know was that Wu Zhao wouldn’t leave you.

At this time, you called over the fifty company captains, including Shi Kai. Because of Shi Kai’s outstanding performance, you let Shi Kai take your place.

On the ground, you drew a Bagua Map, then explained to the fifty men, "This is a Bagua Map, which I think everyone recognizes. However, I am not telling fortunes here, I am teaching everyone a formation called the Infinite Bagua Formation. Tomorrow when we go into battle, we will arrange our formation according to this."

"Sir, isn’t this too hasty? After all, we’re going to battle tomorrow, and it’s probably going to be very difficult to drill now. We don’t have enough time."

Black Teeth Changzhi looked at you with a troubled face. From your expression, he could tell that you were sincerely considering everyone’s best interests, but it was really too difficult to learn a formation in one day, and this Bagua formation looked extremely complex. Just looking at the diagram, Black Teeth Changzhi felt overwhelmed.

"There’s no other way. The Qin Army is much stronger than I imagined. If I don’t take some new measures tomorrow, our losses will be very big. Even though I have known you all for less than half an hour, as your superior, I must consider your lives. We must practice this formation. Rest assured, while the formation may look complex, it’s actually very simple to practice. I have complete confidence that you will be able to use it proficiently before sunrise tomorrow."

The crowd was helpless; you were their leader, and your word was an army command.

Right then, the fifty companies started drilling. You had Shi Kai’s company station in the center of the Bagua, with eight position arrays around it, each composed of five companies.

The Infinite Bagua Formation had both offensive and defensive capabilities. It could transform into a sword for piercing or into a complete circle for encircling the enemy.

This Infinite Bagua Formation was modified by you from a game. Meanwhile, as the soldiers arranged the formation, you also maneuvered within it, executing the Swimming Dragon Bagua Palm to perfection.

Inside the Infinite Bagua Formation, you could appear anywhere at any time, moving within it and making up for any deficiencies.

To your delight, while people were arranging the formation, Wu Zhao somehow took out a Longbow from somewhere and started practicing on the side.

At first, people didn’t take much notice, but when they saw that Wu Zhao could hit the bullseye from a kilometer away, everyone’s eyes widened with undisguised admiration.

You were equally surprised and pleased, because what the Tang Dynasty lacked most were archers.

The Qin Kingdom’s repeating crossbows and the Han’s horseback archery were both famously formidable, deterring many ethnic groups on horseback, but the Tang Dynasty had always been a blank in this area.

For this, Emperor Li Shimin was helpless because talents in this area were truly scarce, both technically and in terms of personnel.

Then, what almost made everyone’s eyes pop out was Wu Zhao’s display of the highly difficult shooting skill of Five consecutive arrows. Watching those five Flying Swords hit the bullseye consecutively, a cheer naturally rose from the camp.

At that moment, Wu Zhao turned to you with a smile, seemingly receiving some kind of message. You quickly stepped forward, took her by the waist with one hand, and in the midst of the soldiers’ cheering, you boldly lowered your head and lightly kissed her sensual red lips.
