If an ordinary formation moved, the entire formation would change.
However, Lin Yi's Eight Formation Diagram was a large array formed by the convergence of eight array formations. Moreover, the eight array formations could adjust their positions and complement each other to form many array formations.
It was like having a spare part in your hand that could be transformed into a car or a motorcycle…
Guan Zhenshan had never seen Lin Yi change his formation so casually.
He didn't have such a concept in his mind.
The Snake Coiling Formation split the army into two. Once the Sky Covering Formation appeared, it formed a pincer attack from five sides.
Guan Zhenshan had already expected that there would be casualties this time, but he did not expect it to be so chaotic!
Fortunately, they were well-trained soldiers after all. When he arrived here, he had personally trained them for more than two months.
Not long after, the Wu Dynasty soldiers who had charged into the formation had already gained a firm foothold, but the 20,000 soldiers had already lost a third of their numbers.
Guan Zhenshan didn't have time to grieve.
This was because Lin Yi's Snake Coiling Formation and Cloud Drooping Formation had all become the Heaven Overturning Formation.
The Heaven Overturning Formation was a complete offensive formation that was formed by mixing various weapons and soldiers.
Several Heaven Overturning Formations stacked together, and the army of Guanzhen Mountain resisted desperately.
After leaving behind so many corpses, the soldiers of the Wu Dynasty who were passing through the Zhenshan Mountain had the intention to fight with their backs to the wall. They were prepared to risk their lives!
However, on the mountaintop, Lin Yi waved his flag, and the defensive formations such as the Snake Formation, the Wind Formation, and the Bird Soaring Formation, as well as the offensive and defensive formations, shrank.
When the Wu Dynasty soldiers charged up, they would defend and counterattack. Those three meter long spears and broadswords would all come at them.
The number of Wu Dynasty soldiers instantly decreased, forcing Guan Zhenshan to send more troops!
Another 20,000 soldiers were brought into the formation. At this moment, Guan Zhenshan discovered some of the characteristics of the Eight Formation Diagram.
This Eight Formation Diagram was too flexible!
I'm just bullying you because you have fewer people!
The fewer people you have, the more flexible the array formation will be. At this moment, Lin Yi is flying, and you have no way to deal with him.
However, with the addition of 20,000 soldiers and the 30,000 soldiers from the Eight Formation Diagram, the efficiency of the Eight Formation Diagram in harvesting the Wu Dynasty soldiers began to decrease.
This was also a helpless move.
The Eight Formation Diagram itself had many countermeasures.
However, fifteen days was simply not enough for the Yan Han soldiers to practice the complete version of the array formation. Moreover, this mini version that Lin Yi had simplified was only afraid that the enemy would come at them all.
Both sides agreed that the person who set up the formation could only use 40,000 soldiers.
However, the number of troops used to attack the formation could be doubled.
Seeing that the Eight Formation Diagram's flexibility had decreased, Guan Zhenshan's courage was great, and he actually sent out another 40,000 people.
The 80,000 troops entered the formation, directly reaching the maximum number of reinforcements.
At this moment, Lin Yi's head was starting to hurt. He could only change the Heaven Overturning Formation from before and use more Tiger Wing Formation and Snake Coiling Formation. He mainly focused on defense and counterattack.
Lin Yi already knew that after being tormented by Guan Zhenshan, this array would definitely be broken!
For this reason, he could only use the fastest method to harvest the enemy's heads, unleashing all eight formations of firepower.
By noon, the Eight Formation Diagram had been completely broken.
At this moment, hundreds of thousands of troops behind Lin Yi pressed forward. Wang Youdao was protected by his personal guards to prevent the other party from launching a sudden attack after breaking the array.
The battle formation ended.
Lin Yi had less than 10,000 casualties.
But Guan Zhenshan paid a bloody price!
His 80,000 men had broken through the Eight Formation Diagram, but they had actually lost 30,000 men.
After two rounds of battle, Yan Han had suffered over 30,000 casualties while Guan Zhen Mountain had lost over 50,000 soldiers.
In terms of numbers, Flame Han had won quite a bit.
However, from the perspective of battle formations, both sides would fight for a while and break for a while, so it was naturally a draw!
He originally wanted to use the battle formation to quickly exhaust the Yan Han soldiers and reduce their battle strength.
However, Yan Han had used up more than 20,000 men. Guan Zhen Mountain had been defeated before, but such a huge loss was rare.
The two armies withdrew their troops.
The Wu Dynasty's camp was silent, while in the Yan Han camp, although the battle formation had gained an advantage, so many soldiers had lost their lives after all. Lin Yi did not allow them to celebrate.
At night, Lin Yi sat in front of the map and studied it with Wang Youdao.
Let's talk about the military camp of Wu Dynasty.
Guan Zhenshan was getting on in years. He usually slept at night, but after the battle today, he could not sleep no matter what.
If you wanted to understand an enemy's strategy and command level, a battle formation was a way to quickly understand them.
After two days of battle, Lin Yi's thoughts were meticulous, and he was full of wisdom. He also had a sharp eye. He was like a veteran who had been on the battlefield for sixty to seventy years. He had terrifying combat experience. He was good at on-the-spot deployment and analysis, and he discovered problems extremely quickly...
Guan Zhenshan understood that the swift victory that the Martial Emperor wanted would never come.
"Men, prepare a pen."
Guan Zhenshan personally wrote a memorial.
"This old minister Guan Zhenshan wept blood and reported that this old minister is incompetent. His Majesty's plan to break through the Han Dynasty at lightning speed is truly useless.”
"Yanzhong now has capable subjects and tiger generals, as well as a diligent emperor who loves the people. The entire country is working hard and is not a country that will perish quickly.”
" Old Chen fought with the former general of Yan Han, Lin Yi, in front of the battle. I can't help but worry for the Wu Dynasty. If this person can't be used by the Wu Dynasty, he will definitely be a great disaster in the future. I have been fighting for nearly sixty years, but I don't have much confidence in dealing with this person. I should win this battle steadily. I hope Your Majesty can stabilize the rear and allow me to go out in time. This battle is related to the national plan, so I can't be rash. I dare to advise you.”
Guan Zhen on the mountain on the play, please Wu Huang can not be too hasty.
He had also keenly sensed the problem.
The Wu Dynasty had been fighting for years, and its national strength was empty. Previously, it had lost 80,000 soldiers, and now 200,000 troops had come to attack the Han Dynasty.
This was a battle that would determine the fate of the country, so they couldn't rush it!
If he won, then Flame Han would be unable to resist and would definitely be destroyed.
However, if they lost, the Wu Dynasty would fall from its position as the overlord, and their vitality would be greatly damaged.
Late at night, Guan Zhenshan picked up the oil lamp and looked at the map.
The spring flood had flooded their way of sending troops. If Lin Yi seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack,
If they lost one way to send troops, they would be suppressed by Lin Yi.
Guan Zhenshan was keenly aware of this and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to go up the mountain to cut down the trees at dawn. He requested that the pontoon bridge be built immediately and the road be repaired.
On Lin Yi's side, the spring flood naturally could not be hidden from his eyes and ears.
To the left of the two armies was the unrecovered Yuzhou.
Due to the low-lying terrain of Yuzhou, a few days ago, the mudflow had destroyed a lot of military rations.
At this moment, there were only about 10,000 defenders in the city.
Lin Yi and Wang Youdao discussed. Wang Youdao sent 50,000 people to go to Yuzhou.
Taking advantage of the spring flood on Guanzhen Mountain's side and blocking the path of sending troops, Lin Yi only needed to guard the upstream river bank and lead his troops to delay Guanzhen Mountain's army downstream. He had no chance of going to rescue them.
As long as Wang Youdao attacked fast enough to break through the city and recover the lost land of Yuzhou, Guan Zhenshan could only watch helplessly but could not respond.
Lin Yi's plan was good, but Guan Zhenshan was a character after all.
The other party had already gone to repair the pontoon bridge that night and made a plan in advance.
Furthermore, Guan Zhenshan was better than them. He didn't build the pontoon bridge at a place where the Yan Han Army could see. Once that happened, the Yan Han Army would know that the pontoon bridge was repaired and Guan Zhenshan's method of sending troops was restored. There would be little chance of winning the battle in Yuzhou, and the plan would be abandoned.
Guan Zhenshan, who was experienced in using troops, secretly sent troops to detour 140 miles to the upstream where the Yan Han Army could not find them to build a pontoon bridge, opening up the way to send troops.
As for Lin Yi and Wang Youdao, even though they had binoculars, they did not notice this.
This was the battle between wise men.
To deal with an ordinary general, you only needed to guess what he was going to do next and then set up your troops to deal with him.
However, when experts fought, he had to predict your predictions before secretly using his troops. Moreover, he had to pay attention to how he sent his troops and how he used his tactics.
Guan Zhenshan saw that Yuzhou was empty and that Lin Yi and the others might take advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack on Yuzhou, so he prepared this move.
Even if he didn't use this backup plan, it would be a waste of time. It was just a waste of the soldiers running more than a hundred miles to train their bodies.
However, if he predicted it, he would make a fortune!
At dawn the next day, Wang Youdao immediately led his troops to Yuzhou.
Lin Yi followed his previous plan. The army suddenly arranged themselves on a high ground and took the lead to occupy the geographical advantage.
Lin Yi stationed troops upstream. If Guan Zhenshan sent troops to cross the river, they could attack halfway. Guan Zhenshan naturally would not do such a thing.
As expected!
Guan Zhenshan began to cooperate with Lin Yi's acting!
Early in the morning, he sat on a four-wheeled carriage and left the camp to patrol. Then, he saw that Lin Yi had occupied the only path to Yuzhou and had already defended the dangerous place in advance.
Guan Zhenshan seemed to have thought of something and started to build the pontoon bridge.
Lin Yi sent his troops to shoot arrows at the same time. The two sides held a stalemate for half a day, but the pontoon bridge that ran through the town mountain was not built.
Guan Zhenshan would directly lead his troops to reinforce Yuzhou. Taking the path that Lin Yi and the others had laid in ambush was no different from sending himself to his death.
At this moment, Guan Zhenshan did not give up on building the pontoon bridge. He confronted Lin Yi and the others in front of the camp. At the same time, he sent out a team of people to take a detour and head straight for the upstream crossing of the river. He wanted to cross the river to save Yuzhou and take another path.
However, Lin Yi had already predicted this and immediately increased the number of people.
The troops sent by Guan Zhen Mountain to the River Crossing Mouth confronted Lin Yi for a full day, but they did not dare to cross the river. They could only give up on this operation.
For a few days, both sides fought to the death over these matters.
There were a few times when the troops of Guanzhen Mountain secretly crossed the river at night, and Lin Yi seized the opportunity to kill hundreds of people.
There were also two times when the pontoon bridge was almost repaired successfully, but it was destroyed by Lin Yi and the others!
Five days had passed in a hurry, but there was no report from the scout Lin Yi sent to contact Wang Youdao.
As for Wang Youdao, he actually did not contact Lin Yi either.
This made Lin Yi feel strange!
Lin Yi, who was cautious and cautious, sent out a group of 8,000 cavalrymen to secretly rush to Yuzhou. However, he did not want this army to support Wang Youdao in attacking the city.
He set up an ambush at a perfect place.
To outsiders, this move was simply superfluous. The troops that passed through the Zhenshan Mountain were blocked by Lin Yi from the beginning to the end and could not get out.
Lin Yi, you're still setting up an ambush here. Isn't this unnecessary?
For example, you haven't even found a wife yet, and you're already hoarding baby diapers at home. This is simply the biggest joke in the world.
However, Lin Yi's cautious move to seek stability actually came true!
