" It's a coincidence. Other than me, there's no other person in this world who knows how to break the Eight Trigrams Formation. It can only be a coincidence…"
Zhuge Liang consoled himself as he waved his feather fan to observe the battle.
After 15 minutes, a strange look flashed across Zhuge Liang's eyes.
Screams suddenly sounded from within the Eight Trigrams Formation. Blood covered the formation.
The army formation that was operating smoothly like a machine gradually began to show signs of chaos.
South of the formation.
The flags of the Jingzhou army were cut down one after another.
Wen Pin finally came from the south and rushed out from the rest gate.
"How is this possible? He actually charged out from the Rest Gate. How can there be two coincidences? Could it be?"
Zhuge Liang's feather fan had stopped, the shock in his eyes could not be hidden.
Choosing a formation gate at once could be explained as a coincidence.
The second time, could it still be a coincidence?
Zhuge Liang's hands were trembling slightly, and he gradually began to feel guilty.
In the blink of an eye, Wenpin attacked from the east.
That was the final step to break the Eight Trigrams Formation!
"My Eight Trigrams Formation was actually broken by him?”
"This is a secret that I don't want to spread. How did Cao Lie, that thug, see through it?”
"It doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense at all!”
Zhuge Liang was shocked. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Cao Lie.
In front of the city, the Eight Trigrams Formation had collapsed.
The Jing State soldiers lost their bearings and crashed into each other, causing chaos.
The army formation was in chaos, so it was no longer useful to alarm or rest.
Wen Pin led the Black Armored Cavalry to slaughter, killing thousands of Jing State soldiers until their blood flowed like a river as they fled.
Zhuge Liang's face turned stiff.
"Brother Kong Ming, didn't you say that you created this Eight Trigrams Formation?”
"But what's going on? How did that bastard Cao break it?”
Liu Qi was also dumbfounded. His eyes were filled with shock as he turned around and questioned.
Zhuge Liang's face was ashen. Although he tried his best to maintain his composure, he could not hide the embarrassment in his eyes.
He felt as if he had been slapped by Cao Lie in public!
After gritting his teeth, Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and regained his composure.
He waved his feather fan and said disapprovingly,"Perhaps there is someone in the Cao rebel army who is proficient in the Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes. It is not surprising that he was lucky enough to recognize my Eight Trigrams Formation.”
Liu Qi was stunned.
"Eldest Young Master, don't be anxious. We haven't lost yet.”
"Don't forget, Liang's plan, the battle formation was originally just a cover, Liu Pan's army was the winning surprise.”
Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and pointed in the direction of Xinye.
Liu Qi immediately turned from worry to joy and nodded."Virtuous younger brother is right. At this moment, cousin Liu Pan must have successfully launched a sneak attack on Xinye. That Cao Lie dog thief, even if he wins the battle array, he will definitely lose!”
Zhuge Liang smiled faintly and looked confidently at Cao Lie outside the city.
"Cao Lie, do you think that you have won just because you broke my Eight Trigrams Formation? If my plan was so simple, how could it be worthy of the name of Crouching Dragon?”
Cao Cao's army.
Cheers sounded.
Wen Pin rode back on his horse and cupped his hands." I have not failed you. I have broken the Eight Trigrams Formation."”
"Alright, I'll remember this credit for you!”
Cao Lie praised.
"I didn't expect General Pingnan to be proficient in the Book of Changes and the Eight Trigrams. You've really broadened our horizons today.”
"General is omnipotent and is truly a genius of the present age. With a nephew like General, my lord has nothing to worry about not clearing the world!”
Cheng Yu, Man Chong, and the others bowed deeply to Cao Lie.
"Husband is really…"
Huang Yueying looked up at Cao Lie, her eyes flickering. She didn't know what to say.
Cao Lie ignored the crowd's exclamation and turned his gaze to the north.
"It's just a battle of formations. The real winner is still Wen Chou.”
As soon as Cao Lie finished speaking.
From the north, a group of soldiers and horses was rolling over.
It was Wen Chou who returned to the camp to meet up.
"General, Liu Qi really did send troops to attack Xinye. Fortunately, General was on guard and sent me back to save him.”
"When I returned to Xinye, I happened to encounter Liu Pan leading his army to attack the city. I wiped out thousands of Jingzhou soldiers and captured Liu Pan alive.”
Wen Chou threw the captive in front of Cao Lie's horse and reported.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised.
"Wen Ziqin, you're on the merit list!”
Cao Lie laughed.
Then, he put Huang Yueying down and picked up Liu Pan. He rode out of the formation alone and arrived in front of Fan City.
"Liu Qi, open your dog eyes and see who this is!”
He gave a loud shout, throwing Liu Pan ruthlessly in front of the horse.
On the city wall.
Liu Qi's body trembled as he looked closely.
"T-Cousin!"
When he recognized it, he couldn't help but exclaim.
Zhuge Liang's expression changed as well. He stuck his head out to take a closer look and immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
It was indeed Liu Pan.
However, he should have led a surprise army to sneak attack Xinye. How could he be captured alive by Cao Lie?
"Zhuge Liang, you provoked me to fight in vain, but your sneak attack on Xinye was real. It was indeed a brilliant plan to divert the east and attack the west.”
"Unfortunately, no matter how clever your plan is, how can it hide from my eyes?”
Cao Lie's thunderous voice exposed Zhuge Liang's plan.
Zhuge Liang's body swayed slightly, and his feather fan froze in mid-air.
"This is my first battle after leaving the mountain. How could such an exquisite plan be easily seen through by this thug?”
Zhuge Liang's eyes were bloodshot as he clenched his fists tightly.
Anger, confusion, and humiliation burned in his heart.
"Zhuge Liang, I know you have the ambition to pacify the world and save the people.”
"Surrender to me, Cao Lie, and submit to my uncle. Help my Cao family pacify the world as soon as possible. This is your only chance to realize your ambition.”
"Don't be so narrow-minded. Just because of your likes and dislikes, you insist on being enemies with my Cao Family, causing the world to be in chaos and countless people to die under your stubbornness.”
"This is your last chance. If you continue to resist, this will be your end!”
The ultimatum was issued.
Cao Lie's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he slashed down with his spear.
"Crack!"
Liu Pan's head fell to the ground.
Zhuge Liang's body trembled slightly and he actually shivered.
"Cousin!"
Liu Qi was furious. He pointed at Cao Lie and scolded," Cao Lie, you cruel dog thief. I, Liu Qi, will never let you off!"
"Liu Qi, you are not worthy of being my enemy!”
Cao Lie snorted and pointed his blood lance."Go back and tell your father Liu Biao to buy a few more coffins. Within a month, I will break into Xiangyang and destroy your Liu family!”
Cao Lie gave a bloody warning and left.
Liu Qi's face was filled with grief and indignation, but he was intimidated by Cao Lie's domineering and murderous aura. He was so angry that he couldn't curse out loud.
Zhuge Liang's body was also stiff. He could only stand at the top of the city wall and watch Cao Lie carry Huang Yueying back to the camp after showing off his power.
"Thief Cao, you are indeed more brutal and arrogant than your uncle Cao Cao. No matter how many people I, Zhuge Liang, sacrifice, I will never let the world fall into the hands of your Cao family!”
Zhuge Liang swore to himself as he clenched his fists so tightly that his palms were bleeding.
"The battle formation failed and cousin Liu Pan was killed, losing five to six thousand soldiers for nothing.”
Liu Qi came back to his senses and questioned Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He waved his feather fan and said lightly," Victory and defeat are common in military strategists. Eldest Young Master, don't lose your composure. I have another plan that will definitely defeat Cao Cao!"”
