Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 740: Heaven is above, the earth is our witness
Zhao Hui felt like he had stepped into a giant net. No matter how he struggled, the threads on his body became tighter and tighter.
After hesitating for a long time, Zhao Hui decided to give it a try. If he failed again this time, he would retreat directly.
"Pass my order, the central army moves forward, and the Eight Banners cavalry push forward together!"
As a last-ditch effort, Zhao Hui undoubtedly used all his strength, and the powerful legion attack directly blasted out a blank area.
"Damn it, how did they do that?"
Zhao Hui's face was gloomy. He still didn't understand. Both parties arrived at almost the same time, and Xinghan was even the attacking party. How did they get the time to build the camp like a city?
There were obstacles everywhere, and the entire camp was like a maze.
It's not that he didn't realize that this was the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, but the problem was that this Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation was a living formation, and no matter how they tried to destroy it, the formation would not disperse.
"Kill them!"
Zhao Hui took a deep breath, looked at the emperor's guards who appeared from the corner in front, and threw his own guards out directly.
In the previous confrontations, he had already deeply understood the combat effectiveness of these emperor's guards. Only top elites could face these incredibly burly guys.
"Throw a spear!"
Hundreds of short spears were thrown directly at the Emperor's guards. Given the terrifying quality of Zhao Hui's guards, the moment the short spears were thrown, they made a sharp whistling sound like arrows.
With their qualities, this distance was enough to penetrate the opponent along with his shield, but reality gave these guards a heavy slap in the face.
"Ding!" Most of the spears that shot straight forward, like the previous arrows, made a crisp sound when they hit the shields in the hands of the Emperor's guards, and then the short spears were directly bounced away like a ricochet.
This scene made Zhao Hui a little crazy.
He was certainly aware that the shortcomings of these Emperor's Guards might be their lack of mobility and their inability to fight for long periods of time.
But they were attacking a city, and when the enemy was tired, they could simply retreat and rest, and they might even be able to drink some hot soup to warm themselves up.
As the attacking party, they could not enjoy such treatment.
"It's a large shield made entirely of steel, but why does it look so light?"
Zhao Hui immediately judged the defensive performance of the shields in the hands of the Emperor's guards, but what surprised him was that these shields did not look very heavy.
This may mean that Xinghan's steelmaking technology is stronger than Qingting's?
There was no need for Zhao Hui to explain. The battle-hardened Zhao Hui's guards already had a general understanding of the Emperor's guards' defense. Although they were a little surprised by this excellent defense, they were not at a loss.
If physical attacks don't work, then use will attacks.
"Bah!"
The centurion of Zhaohui's personal guard who was rushing in the front had already encountered the emperor's guards who were marching in formation. The heavy scimitar in his hand, with an arc-shaped glow, directly cut into the shields of the emperor's guards.
There was a sharp, stinging sound and bright sparks flew everywhere.
"Not affected?"
The centurion had originally planned to take advantage of the moment when the Emperor's guards' movements changed to attack the vital points, but he found that the soldiers of the Emperor's guards were not affected at all, or they were just in a trance for a moment and did not even have time to change their movements.
The moment the Emperor's guards blocked the attack, even though their wills were half-awake, the muscle memory formed from hard training forced them to thrust their short spears towards the opposite side.
However, the centurion of Zhao Hui's personal guard didn't even look at the short spear that was stabbing towards him. With a flick of his wrist, the heavy scimitar tore an arc of light in the air and chopped down at the emperor's guards on the opposite side.
Sparks flew, and neither side achieved what they wanted.
The short spears were naturally blocked by the round shields of the comrades who came behind the centurion, and the heavy scimitars were also blocked by the teammates of the Emperor's Guards.
Both sides are top-notch elite troops in the world. They are not fighting alone. Their comrades take turns to cover them, allowing them to ignore many attacks and counterattack boldly.
The basic qualities of the Emperor's guards far exceed those of normal soldiers. Combined with the battle formations, this is enough to allow a group of them to act like a person's left and right hands when fighting.
Similarly, Zhaohui's personal guards also have this kind of coordination ability.
The two sides fought fiercely. Zhao Hui's personal guards came from the Eight Banners Cavalry and were all-round infantrymen who abandoned their horses and followed footsteps.
The cooperation is even stronger than that of the Emperor's Guards.
"Bang!" With a dull piercing sound, Zhao Hui's personal guards, with the cooperation of several people, successfully avoided the shield defense of the Emperor's guards and directly chopped the Emperor's guards on the chest.
"Hey~"
There was the sound of metal cutting, and sparks illuminated everything nearby.
The guards on Zhao Hui's side had extremely ugly expressions on their faces. The external mecha of the Emperor's guards was too thick, and even if it hit the chest, no blood could be seen.
The fierce offensive and defensive battle made both sides very solemn.
But neither side is fighting alone, they have the support of comrades behind them.
The spearmen of Zhao Hui's personal guards took advantage of the gap and thrust their spears towards the emperor's guards.
However, the spear did not pierce through the armor of the Emperor's Guards. Instead, the spiral spearman behind the Emperor's Guards pierced through Zhao Hui's guards in front of them with a spiral thrust.
They did not have such a strong defense, and were pierced through by the spears the moment they were stabbed.
The spiral wound made treatment a big hassle.
"It's really troublesome!" Zhao Hui stared at the formation of the Emperor's guards for a long time, then moved his gaze elsewhere.
After all, there were some things that he could not detect when he relied on secret techniques to observe the battlefield. After he personally entered it, he observed some things that he had never paid attention to before.
The defensive works within the camp seem to be being restored?
"Legion prepare to attack!" Zhao Hui narrowed his eyes and directly drew the army's cloud energy to bombard the place he suspected.
When the attack dispersed, the figures of Hou Tu's army were exposed in front of Zhao Hui. Although they were soon hidden again by the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, it was enough for Zhao Hui to discover something.
"I've been fooled, completely fooled!"
Zhao Hui now fully understood that the reason why they had such a hard time fighting was entirely because the opponent had a military soul corps that specialized in construction.
It is something I have never heard of or seen before.
Such unrealistic things actually exist in reality.
Zhao Hui felt that his worldview had been shattered, but apart from the Legion of Miracles, the only one that could offset the Legion's attack was the Legion of Military Soul.
No matter how irrational it is, the answer that remains in the end is the only explanation.
"Was the initial retreat intentional in order to lure our army here to attack the city?"
"What is the other side's purpose? To hold us back?"
"not good!"
In the fog, Zhao Hui strung all the clues together and finally got a glimpse of Xu Shu's entire plan.
The other party led them into the abyss step by step.
"Retreat! Retreat immediately!"
Zhao Hui roared angrily. He looked around and saw that the whole city was a deadly place. The only way to survive was to retreat.
"We've been discovered!" Xu Shu's face looked a little unhappy, his efforts had failed.
Zhao Hui was too cautious after all. He discovered the problem much earlier than he expected. Plans could never keep up with changes.
"Jiang Boyue, reorganize the army and prepare to chase them out. The next step will be a real tough battle!" Xu Shu's face was gloomy.
He didn't want to let Zhao Hui escape. He wanted to swallow up the 600,000-strong Qing army, so he had to uproot the Qing army in the middle war zone and annihilate all its manpower.
Otherwise, if Zhao Hui escaped back to the camp, there would be no point in setting up such a big plan.
Only by killing Zhao Hui in this place will we have a chance to take over the other two war zones. Otherwise, the siege will not be so easy to fight.
Therefore, he had to hold on to Zhao Hui's main force and wait for Deng Ai's army to encircle them from the rear.

"Send someone to notify Deng Ai and order them to come here as soon as possible!" Xu Shu took a deep breath and gave the order decisively.
"Sure enough, this is a trap!"
Just when Zhao Hui had led his army out to reorganize and prepare for an orderly retreat, he saw Jiang Wei and his army chasing after them.
"What a cruel plot. They used the remnants of the defeated army as bait, set up camps to resist, and then lured me to split my troops into two groups, and then defeated them separately..."
There was a hint of bloodshot in Zhao Hui's eyes. He had already guessed that the cavalrymen he had sent out were most likely in danger.
Although I don’t know how Xu Shu did it, but after going through such a big circle, his goal is obvious.
"You arrogant fellow, you actually want to swallow my 600,000-man army in one gulp! I want to see if you have such good teeth!"
After figuring everything out, Zhao Hui gave up the idea of retreating. While pretending to retreat, he launched a counterattack against Jiang Wei.
He has completely fallen into the trap, and it is no longer realistic for him to escape unscathed. In this case, let's kill him.
Stop killing with killing, fight to the death with Xu Shu, and then rely on the 400,000 troops to set up camp and defend, and still be able to force back the Xinghan army.
Because of Zhao Hui's pretended concession, the heavy infantry and other corps were forced to fall into the second batch.
This is an open conspiracy. Either you catch up with them with your cavalry, or you can only watch Zhao Hui's army go away.
Zhao Hui bet that Xu Shu and his men would definitely catch up, so he pretended to retreat twenty miles, and when the cavalry corps caught up, he turned around and attacked.
Jiang Wei also reacted quickly. Seeing the other party roaring and trying to counterattack, he immediately ordered them to give way.
After realizing that they had taken the bait, Jiang Wei quickly adjusted his strategy.
"Avoid the front and attack from both wings!"
Following Jiang Wei's order, the cavalry corps began to extend to both sides.
"I'm waiting for you to disperse!"
Zhao Hui's eyes lit up, and the army naturally charged in three directions: front, left, and right.
The idea of the left and right wing cavalry joining together to encircle the enemy was shattered and isolated.
At the same time, the central army launched a strong counterattack and took the initiative to press towards the infantry corps led by Xu Shu.
The 5,000 Eight Banners cavalry, which had been fully replenished when the army was reorganized, were like the sharpest knife, leading the Qing army to attack Xu Shu.
There will always be flaws when a large army is on the move, let alone this kind of full-speed pursuit.
The moment Xu Shu realized that Zhao Hui had launched a desperate counterattack, he commanded the Hou Tu Legion to attack the front.
"Hou Tu Legion, stop them!"
Faced with the Eight Banners Cavalry who were coming on with great force and were even prepared to fight to the death, the Emperor's guards were unable to arrive in time and could only let the Hou Tu Legion, which was also the Military Soul Legion, take over.
Ma Chao, Wei Yan, Taishi Ci, Jiang Wei and other top legions were all gone, and Xu Shu estimated that even the remaining heavy infantry legion of the Imperial Guard would not be able to withstand this desperate charge.
"Die!"
The power of the military soul was burning in the bodies of the Eight Banners Cavalry. This time, they completely gave up on maintaining their organization for the transformation and directly released all the power of the military soul, raising the strength of the Eight Banners Cavalry to a new level.
Looking at the Eight Banners cavalry whose bodies were already beginning to glow slightly, Ji Jian felt that his life was miserable. Why did they, an ordinary civil engineering corps, always have to be involved in these troublesome attacking battles?
Before in the camp, they were at least doing their job, but now they have to face the cavalry charge head-on.
"God is above me, and the thick earth is my witness. I am willing to use this body as my final barrier!" Ji Jian roared and smashed his shield to the ground.
A heavy light flickered on the Hou Tu Legion.
The earth shook and gullies appeared everywhere. The flat terrain that was originally suitable for charge was covered with gullies in an instant.
Not to mention cavalry, even infantry has difficulty moving through.
"Charge!" Zhao Hui used the secret technique of solidifying the road with clouds at the first opportunity and paved a road made of clouds for the Eight Banners Cavalry.
"Stand still as a mountain!" The light on Ji Jian's body bloomed completely.
The entire legion stands above the earth like a mountain, completely integrated with the earth.
"A logistics corps, I want to see if you can withstand this full-force attack!" Zhao Hui's eyes were full of madness, and he poured all the army's energy onto the Eight Banners Cavalry without reservation.
"Oh!"
A dull sound resounded throughout the land when the lances of the Eight Banners cavalry poked into the shields of the Hou Tu Legion.
However, what was astonishing was that the cavalry charge, which was enough to knock people away, was easily blocked by the Hou Tu Legion, and they didn't even take a step back.
However, the large amount of dust of almost the same size that was blown away by the Hou Tu Legion's feet under this attack has already shown how fierce the impact was.
Zhao Hui opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
In his eyes, the Hou Tu Legion, which should be as weak as the auxiliary military spirit, actually blocked the desperate charge of the Eight Banners Cavalry head-on.
Ji Jian looked at the Eight Banners cavalry in front of him with a serious expression. Half of his body was numb. They clearly felt the impact of the attack just now.
He originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to counterattack, but found that the impact was too terrifying.
If they were not tied to the earth, directing the impact force completely into the earth, they would probably have suffered heavy losses from this blow.
However, the consequence of completely directing the impact force into the earth was that the Eight Banners Cavalry did not suffer any recoil force. Instead of ending the battle, it had just begun.
