Chapter 60 The Different Eight-door Golden Lock Formation

The fight between Zhang Lan and Bingzhou army horses did not stop until sunset, and the two armies retreated to set up camps to recuperate.

The long-term battle made everyone a little tired, but it is also necessary to summarize the results of this battle. Zhang Lan sat in the big tent, and all his confidants sat below.

"Taiyuan is the head of Bingzhou, with a large number of troops. Most of Dingyuan's troops are here. It is estimated that there are 20 people. Do you have a good plan to defeat the enemy?"

"The city of Taiyuan is stable and should not be attacked by force. At this time, Ding Yuan abandoned the city to fight. Ding Yuan decided not to attack lightly, so it is better to use this as a guide, set up an ambush, and lure the enemy to go deep after losing streak, and the enemy can be broken."

Xu Shu's words are indeed the best countermeasure. In this situation of similar forces, the two armies dare not act lightly, and can only be feasible by feigning defeat.

"It's not right at this time." It was Guo Jia who said, "Although Ding Yuan is a fool, he also has capable people under his command. I'm afraid it won't work if he loses."

After Zhang Lan heard Guo Jia's words, she understood after thinking about it, and her original plan to adopt Xu Shu's strategy was swept away.

Xu Shu also nodded with a wry smile. When he said this plan, he knew that there was an element of risk in his heart, but the current situation could only be done in this way. Bai, let Yuan Shao take advantage of it.

"Is there a good strategy for filial piety?" Zhang Lan couldn't help looking at Guo Jia
Guo Jia only saw the disadvantages of this strategy, and naturally knew the current situation in his heart. As long as Ding Yuan fought steadily, it would indeed be difficult to win Taiyuan.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, "I have no good plan either."

Zhang Lan looked at Xu Shu again. Xu Shu had been in contact with Zhang Lan when he was young, and he was not so restrained in front of Zhang Lan. He spread his hands and smiled wryly, "Now we can only wait for Yuan Shao to break through Leping and come to support, but I'm afraid it will be by then. There will be some resistance to getting the ownership of Taiyuan.”

Seeing that her two military advisers were helpless, Zhang Lan could only look at the generals with luck, but Guo Jia and Xu Shu were helpless. They could not have a good plan, and they all bowed their heads in silence.

In desperation, Zhang Lan had no choice but to give up, "Strengthen patrols at night, fall into the camp tomorrow and go out to fight, Yuan Zhi, this is up to you."

"I will live up to my lord's hope"

When it comes to strategy, Xu Shu is slightly inferior to Guo Jia, but when it comes to formations, Xu Shu is undoubtedly above Guo Jia. Xu Shu's first battle in history was achieved by breaking Cao Ren's eight-door golden lock formation. Knowing how the eight-door golden lock formation is arranged, he decided to use the eight-door golden lock formation to test the strength of Ding Yuan's subordinates.

Nothing in the night

Early the next morning, Zhang Lan ordered people to build a high platform, ordered Gao Shun to lead the trapped camp to call the formation, and Zhang Lan led the army to hold the formation behind.

Ding Yuan was the leader of the army, and Zhang Lan asked Dian Wei to summon him from a distance. Dian Wei shouted loudly, "Ding Yuan, my lord has set up a large formation here, do you dare to break it?"

Hearing Dian Wei's words, Ding Yuan snorted coldly and didn't respond, turned to Xu Yi who was at the side and asked, "Does Boying recognize this formation?"

Xu Yi rolled his eyes and said, "There are eight gates in this formation, so I think it's the Golden Lock Formation with eight gates."

Ding Yuan was overjoyed, "Can this formation be broken?"

"This" Xu Yi thought for a while and said, "I would like to give it a try."

Xu Yi was sure of the eight-door Golden Lock Formation, but he had no in-depth contact with the formation, and he only knew about it. But Ding Yuan asked him a question, and he didn't want to lose face, so he could only bite the bullet and agree .

Ding Yuan ordered Hou Cheng to go to the battle, Hou Cheng agreed with a bitter face, Xu Yi ordered him to enter through the southeast gate and exit through the west gate.

The southeast gate is also the birth gate of the eight-door Golden Lock Formation, and the west gate is also the Jingmen. Entering the Shengmen will bring good luck, and leaving the Jingmen will lead to students. Xu Yi did make a relatively correct decision, but he ignored The person in charge of the big formation was Xu Shu standing on the high platform. Based on Xu Shu's understanding of the formation, the changes of the big formation were naturally endless, and it would not be broken by his behavior of not joining the formation and adapting to the time.

Hou Cheng entered Shengmen, Gao Shun didn't confront him, and walked south, Hou Cheng ignored him, and went straight to the west gate. But he could also see that the formation had changed, so he changed his itinerary in the direction of the formation change. At this time, Gao Shun suddenly rushed out and caught Hou Cheng by surprise. Just as he was about to rise up to resist, Gao Shun led his troops to withdraw again. Walk.

Although Hou Cheng felt aggrieved, he still suppressed the anger in his heart and headed towards the so-called Jingmen in his heart, but what he didn't know was that the Jingmen he thought had turned into a Jingmen, with long spears stabbing towards him. , the surrounding soldiers were pierced almost at the same time, Hou Cheng was shocked, and hurried towards the 'Jingmen', but the closer he was to the 'Jingmen', the more difficult it was, so that he was killed from the 'Jingmen'. When they left, there were only a hundred of the original thousand troops left, and all of them were wounded. Hou Cheng himself was shot.

Seeing this situation, Ding Yuan's Bingzhou Army suffered little loss compared to the entire army, but its morale suffered a great blow, so he immediately ordered to retreat.

Seeing the retreat of the Bingzhou Army, Zhang Lan did not order to pursue him. Firstly, he was far away from the rear, and secondly, he was afraid that Ding Yuan might be ambushing. Be good.

The troops were withdrawn and returned to the camp. Although the battle did not have much results, the morale of the whole army was mobilized. Some recruits who had not been on the battlefield could already see the confidence of victory from their faces.

At the same time, inside Luoyang City Prison

"You're here again," Lu Bu said lightly, but he seemed to have lost his usual expression.

"Well, this time I won't let you recognize me as the master, I can release you secretly, but you have to promise me a few things"

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at the person in front of him with great interest, and said lightly, "Let's hear it."

"First, you must not be an enemy of our army"

Lu Bu nodded, "Continue"

Seeing that Lu Bu agreed to come down, the man said again, "Second, you need to change your name and surname after you go out, and stop using the name Lu Bu."

Lu Bu hesitated

Seeing that Lu Bu hesitated, the man in black tried to persuade him, "If you think freedom is more important than your name, then let it go, not to mention that there may be a chance to restore your life in the future."

Lu Bu glanced at the man in black, "Continue"

"Third, you can't follow any other forces, and you can only act in the area I designated"

"Hmph, what difference does it make if you go out or not?"

The man in black sneered and said, "Hmph, isn't the Qiang tribe not big enough for you to move around? If you agree to these three things, I'll let you out."

"Is that why you trust me?" Lu Bu looked at the man coldly.

"If you, Lu Bu, are a person who does not believe what you say, then even if I have misjudged my eyes, I will ask for orders to kill you like my lord."

"Okay, I promise you"
