Chapter 266: Formation Diagram

Good! This is truly heaven helping me!

General Li, please quickly pass the formation diagram to our troops so they can become familiar with the formation as soon as possible!

Qi Wang heard Li Yixin's words and rose to his feet in excitement.

Prince Qi, rest assured, I will personally guide the soldiers in practicing the formation, ensuring they master it as soon as possible.

Li Yixin smiled faintly and replied.

However, not all the generals present were blindly optimistic.

General Li, if this formation diagram is so exquisite, why have we never heard you mention it before?

Moreover, Prince Qi and the others had placed great hopes in Li Yixin, viewing him as the lifeline of Qi Zhou.

Tsk. Even more attentive than Li Yixin.

Qi Wang also hurriedly defended Li Yixin.

Only see the dragon's head raised high, as if about to break through the clouds, displaying the mighty bearing of the Qi Zhou army.

This is one of their lethal trump cards that the Qi Zhou army has been drilling day after day.

He explained it in a profound yet accessible manner, allowing the soldiers of the Qi Zhou army to quickly grasp the essence of the formation.

At this moment, in the council hall of Qi Zhou, laughter and chatter rose and fell; Qi Wang and the generals sat around the map, eagerly discussing Li Yixin's newly presented formation diagram.

Such a ruler—is he truly worthy of one's loyalty?

Although he serves in the Qi army, he often feels lost and helpless, unsure for whom he fights and why.

Upon hearing that, the old general, although still harboring doubts in his heart,

Sunlight shone on each soldier's armor, reflecting a dazzling light that made the entire formation gleam even more brightly.

This made their strength grow ever stronger and their morale ever higher.

Meanwhile, Li Jing, Xue Ren Gui, Qin Qiong, and the other allied armies were advancing in full swing.

And while Qi Wang and the others were immersed in joy, they failed to notice that an insignificant person was missing from the hall.

In recent days, the armies led by Li Jing and others have been unstoppable, capturing city after city; wherever they went, the enemy fled at the mere sight of them.

Li Yixin also began secretly plotting how to use this formation to achieve his own goals.

How could I, at this moment, easily shatter their beautiful dream?

They were like the scales of a serpent, tight and orderly, tasked with holding the line and repelling the enemy's assault.

He knew his words carried little weight; even if he spoke, they would be dismissed as nonsense.

"Given the tense situation, I decided to contribute this only for the victory of the Qi Zhou army."

Furthermore, the young officer clearly understood in his heart that Prince Qi was not the enlightened lord he envisioned.

Those intricate lines and symbols, in his eyes, seemed to turn into ferocious faces mocking everyone's ignorance and blindness.

The dragon's body twisted and turned, like a giant dragon coiling on the battlefield, displaying endless majesty and power.

"Old general, you worry too much; this formation diagram is indeed a secret transmission of my sect, not to be lightly revealed except at a critical moment."

Li Jing and the others, seeing the Qi Zhou army deploy this novel formation, couldn't help but frown.

As the soldiers of the Qi Zhou army gradually became familiar with the formation,

Hmm. He wasn't talking nonsense either.

They were immersed in the fantasy of the impending victory, completely unaware of the lurking danger.

From afar, the entire formation looked like a giant dragon and serpent coiled upon the battlefield.

Qi Wang stood on the high platform, looking down upon the entire 'Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation,' his eyes flashing with excitement.

Banners fluttered, and the cold light of swords, spears, and halberds shone forth.

His gaze fell once again on the formation diagram on the map.

The entire 'Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation' occupied the vast battlefield, resembling an immense ocean of dragons and serpents.

However, in the corner of the tent, a young officer furrowed his brows, his gaze complex as he looked at the formation diagram on the map, unease welling up in his heart.

Under Qi Wang's call, the entire army united as one, preparing to face the impending decisive battle.

He believed that if used properly, it would be enough to make the Cangzhou army tremble with fear.

The young officer felt bitter in his heart, knowing he could change nothing and could only choose to watch coldly from the sidelines.

After all, the Qi Zhou army desperately needed new tactics to turn the tide of war.

In the days that followed, Li Yixin began personally training the soldiers to practice the 'Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation.'

This scroll of the formation diagram is indeed a rare secret transmission of their sect, possessing immense power.

Finally, the several armies converged before the Qi Zhou army's main camp, marching mightily toward Prince Qi's headquarters.

Whenever they captured a city, they received abundant supplies and reinforcements.

"Now suddenly presenting it—could there be something fishy?"

The essence of the 'Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation' lies in its endless variation, combining offense and defense.

The old general seated next to him frowned, puzzled, and asked.

Li Yixin was startled inside, but remained calm on the surface as he replied.

Their tactics were flexible and varied, sometimes feigning an attack east while striking west, sometimes striking a point to relieve another, leaving the Qi Zhou army exhausted and unable to mount an effective resistance.

As the Qi Zhou soldiers gradually became familiar with the formation, their confidence and morale grew day by day.

The Qi Zhou army deployed the 'Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation,' hoping to use it to oppose Li Jing and the others' Cangzhou army.

He had witnessed Prince Qi's arbitrary and domineering conduct in handling affairs, and also seen his ruthless suppression of dissenters.

And the serpent's tail is agile and cunning, ready at any moment to deliver a deadly blow to the enemy.

The young officer moved his lips, wanting to remind everyone, but ultimately chose silence.

He saw through Li Yixin's malicious intent; this formation diagram, which everyone revered as a treasure, was in his eyes full of traps and flaws.

The serpent body part is composed of infantry and archers.

On the battlefield, the two armies faced off, the tension reaching its peak.

General Li's heart is utterly sincere; for the safety of Qi Zhou, he does not hesitate to divulge his sect's secret teachings.

However, in the process of teaching, he deliberately obscured his words at certain crucial points, so as to throw the Qi Zhou Army into chaos in battle.

Only, whether the battle formation map passed on to the Qi Army at that time is complete.

His face was filled with long-lost joy and anticipation, as if he had already seen the dawn of victory.

Dancing together on the battlefield, their momentum was magnificent, awe-inspiring.

At this moment, the day of the decisive battle has finally arrived.

Once the battle erupts, the Qi Zhou Army will become a sacrifice under his manipulation.

Moreover, he lacks ambition, is short on schemes, and stingy with kindness.

In such a state of mind, he is even more unwilling to readily express his opinion, merely standing silently to the side, coldly observing everything.

"We should be grateful to him instead; how could we doubt his intentions?"

He took a deep breath, quietly lowered his presence, and subtly shifted his footsteps outward.

Then he turned and briskly walked out of the hall, allowing the laughter and chatter behind him to fade away.

But seeing how excited Qi Wang was, it was also not appropriate to say more.

It might even invite unnecessary trouble because of that.

That remains to be considered.

The dragon head part is composed of elite cavalry, who are like the dragon's claws, swift and sharp, responsible for charging and breaking formations, disrupting the enemy's battle line.

At this moment, under the rear command of Li Yixin, the Dragon Snake Heavenly Might Formation began to slowly operate.

The cavalry whipped their horses, the infantry gripped their weapons, and the archers drew their bows and nocked arrows.

The entire formation is like a precise machine, each component performing its duty, cooperating in combat.
