1196 Battle of Phoenix Castle Part 2 (1/2)

Chapter 1196 – Battle of Phoenix Castle (Part 2)

”So all the attacks before this were probing one?”

Lianpo squinted. He was very sure that amongst the enemy formation, there was definitely a formation expert. After all, they could find out how the formation worked in less than an hour and had also thought of a way to break it.

”His idea is a little too simple.”

Lianpo smiled. Under his leadership, the formation changed once more. The mysterious formation suddenly became even fiercer and even more mysterious.

Such a change dazzled everyone, not to mention the Great Jin Guards Legion Corps that was charging about within.

The Great Jin Guards Legion Corps troops that had just gathered together suffered a heavy blow. They were torn apart and cut up.

Meng Tian was the first to notice the formation changing. His expression changed slightly. At that moment, he had lost his understanding of the formation and was equal to half a blind person.

Around him were enemies and their tents, and soldiers could charge out and surround them at any time. If they fought on, they would not be able to differentiate directions.

If things went wrong, the entire 1st division was going to fall within the formation.

Only Huo Qubing would be able to save them from this.

Obviously, Huo Qubing knew that. When the formation changed, he was thinking of a method. In terms of formations, this one was really complicated, and one would not be able to think of a way so quickly.

Lianpo's moves placed pressure on Huo Qubing.

Time flowed on like water, and the Great Jin Guards were in a tougher and tougher spot. Luckily, Huo Qubing was a genius and also had some knowledge of formations, especially in the ways of striking and retreating.

Combining attacking and retreating to come and go like the wind was Huo Qubing's talent.

When the Great Jin Guards Legion Corps started to suffer heavy casualties, Huo Qubing finally saw the way the formation worked. He did not dare to treat it lightly and started to command the Great Jin Guards Legion Corps to swiftly execute his instructions.

Helplessly, in such a short while, the Great Jin Guards Legion Corps had suffered heavy casualties and were deep within the enemy camp. They did not react toward the instructions from the Phoenix Castle as quickly as before.

The entire command system was on the verge of collapse.

When Huo Qubing saw that, he did not dare to hesitate, ordering the Great Jin Guards Legion Corps 2nd legion to strike, entering the formation to save the 1st legion.

The 2nd legion that was in place did not hesitate and directly charged.

The addition of a new source of troops was a huge blow to the Great Zhou camp. Especially after Huo Qubing saw through how the formation worked, the 2nd legion progressed at god speed and was about to meet up with the 1st legion.

When Lianpo saw that, cold sweat could not help but appear on his hands. He did not expect the enemy commander to see through the mysteries of his formation so quickly.

Lianpo probably forgot that in this world, there were some talents and geniuses that logic meant nothing to.

However, Lianpo was not someone who gave up easily. This formation had a total of 108 different changes, and it was not something that could be seen through right away. Since the enemy did not give up, he would naturally play with them till the end.

The two sides engaged in a life and death battle around the formations. One side was changing the formations while the one side was trying to break the formation.

Although Lianpo and Huo Qubing were unable to see each other, these two experts fought with the battlefield as a medium. One making moves and one breaking it, fighting to a standstill.

If a military person who knew about formations saw this, their eyes would shine bright. Such a dazzling display of formations was something one would only get to see once in their lives.

As time went on, Huo Qubing also sent in the 3rd and 4th legions, totally stirring up the Great Zhou camp. Dust bellowed.

Close to 600 thousand troops were wrapped up with one another in total chaos.
