Chapter 84 The Battle of Guanshan

Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of life and death, the way of survival, must be investigated.Therefore, the scriptures use five things, collate them for calculation, and ask for their emotions: one is called Dao, two is called heaven, three is called earth, four is called generals, and fifth is called law. --"The Art of War"

At this time, under the Guanshan Mountain and south of the Tonghe River, they marched forward with drums, and the two sides lined up. There was only a moment of stillness and movement.Thousands of horses are galloping, and the sound of killing is loud.Although Zhao Wang is better at using troops than the opponent, his soldiers and horses are less than the enemy.This is a deadly battle with disparity in strength.

Gradually, Zhao Jun's formation was broken by the opponent, although there were some people in Zhao Jun who were ecstatic in military law.However, such a disparity in strength cannot be reversed.There are countless dead and injured, blood stained the mountains and rivers, for the common people, for the community, how many people are like ants, no names, no records.The history books may only record the roughest number of a battle.But every number is exchanged for countless fresh lives.No one remembers, but these nameless people merged into history.The sky was speechless, and at this moment, all beings seemed to use their own lives to collide with a thunder that shook the sky.The world is merciless, the battle has just started, blood is flowing, life and death seem to be no longer something worth cherishing, the knife is broken, and after the first battle, will the world be able to exchange for peace and prosperity?

At this time, no one answered, and Zhan Zhiren didn't have the heart to ask.No questions, no answers, but will work hard.This has been the case on the battlefield for thousands of years.

Zhao Jun began to run out, but the three armies showed no sign of Mingjin retreating.The casualties were heavy, but they regarded death as home.The enemy army was like a flood, but including King Zhao himself, they fought more and more bravely. He tore off the ribbons from the banners and wrapped them around his hands and the sword in his hand.He jumped up, held a torch, and burned the original retreating gun. He looked around at the soldiers, his eyes were like stars, his face was covered with plaster, but he didn't show any signs of despair, on the contrary, he was brave and handsome.He started to laugh loudly, holding his sword high, and shouted at the generals: "Listen, generals! This place is called Guanshan, it's a good place! It's a blessed place with beautiful mountains and clear waters! If it wasn't for our success The place where we sprinkled blood and buried bones. There is no retreat in this battle, only advance. Do you remember why everyone is fighting? Look at the displaced people on the way we came. When we first arrived, the ten rooms Nine airs, changing sons and eating. Warlords separatist regime, officials and bandits colluded. The people are not the people, the country is not the country, do you still want to see this situation? Let’s retreat! Where are they retreating to! There is no retreat! So either If you die, you will win. If you fight, you will win! Today I will burn gold and swear to the death. I will fight to the death! The three armies obey the order, and the eight-door golden lock formation! Open!"

Go through the mountain to fight to the death, and burn the gong to make clear the will.This period of battle was recorded in the annals of history and became an allusion of Wan Song in later generations.Later generations included operas and sang sonorously, and it has not declined in 300 years.

As soon as this formation came out, the enemy's conical formation was like a mud dragon entering the sea, and the originally unstoppable killing spirit was stopped for a short time.

The enemy army is also not ordinary.Seeing that the winning ticket is in his hands, he naturally didn't rush forward, so it seemed like a beast playing with its prey, and he didn't rush forward.Instead, it changed into a trap.I want to take advantage of the large number of people to slowly consume Zhao Jun's momentum and fighting spirit, until their despair overwhelms the will of all of them.It quickly devours the opponent like a tiger.The opponent is also a hero who knows how to use troops, Zhao Wang's heart is aroused to be warlike, his eagle-like eyes are staring at the eyes of the battle formation, skillfully resolve and deal with such a disparity in combat power.Four or two moves, trying to avoid the opponent's edge and preserve strength.

Seeing the commander like this, the soldiers under him are extremely brave. Under fierce battles, the soldiers are fearless of life and death, and even the wounded have no chance of surviving. However, as long as they can move, they will kill the enemy, even at the last moment before they fall, they must hug tightly. The other party died together towards the place where the spears were most dense.It doesn't matter if there are no bones left.

The body is dead, the spirit is the spirit, and the soul is the ghost hero! (War)

At this moment of the war, the mountains and rivers are all sad, but how long can the war last?Is it true that as Hu Yue said, the development here can win the whole victory?The sword in Zhao Wang's hand was squeezed even tighter, and his brows were deeply furrowed.He is betting, betting on the inexhaustible talent who was not afraid of the wind and frost on a snowy night and walked at night with a lamp; waiting for the number one strategist in the world who has never appeared among the three armies; Friends of life and death; wait for that nameless and benevolent man who is as calm as still water, but has all the people in the world in his heart; he said that he can win this battle!Then he must win this battle!

Just when Zhao Wang lost his mind for a moment, an arrow flew from nowhere, and his shoulder blade was pierced by a sharp sword. He didn't care whether the arrow was poisoned or not.He swung his sword to chop off the rain of arrows.Shouting to the sky: "My God! Do you really want to let the common people continue to rise and fall? Do you really want me to die here? Tell me! I want you to tell me!"

Zhao Wang asked the sky angrily, suddenly there was a thunderbolt, as if there was an announcement.It started to rain heavily.The heavy rain diluted the shouts of the crowd, and the blood was left on the ground along the rain. Everyone seemed to be fighting in the blood rain. I don't know if it was the blood or the rain that blurred their eyes, and their eyes were blood red.Killing is the only thought.And what supports this idea is that the winner can aspire to the top of the world.

At this time, everyone in the mountain seemed to feel the strangeness of the sky. Liu Ji hurriedly got rid of Chu Jue, and Chu Jue knew in his heart that the most critical moment had finally arrived.

He was finally about to drop his last son.He swung the ancient sword with one hand, and drew a shadow of the sword. The horizontal sword stood upright, without saying a word, and the ancient sword in his hand was no longer kept. Liu Ji felt that the cold was threatening, and she was forced to take a few steps back. Once it was all done.She didn't keep it anymore, this time she had to pass Chu Jue's level, this is the only chance to get back her soul.She doesn't want to be trapped any longer, she can control everything, what Chu Jue can do, she can too.Now, she is only one step away.Hu Yue was her breakthrough, and she used Liu's last blood to design this series of rounds.Soon she will have what she wants.

Liu Ji had no more temptations, no more reservations, and put all her eggs in one basket.The body is like a green swallow, but the strength is immense.When it is chopped down, it is like the power to open up the world.Chu Jue shifted his shape and changed his position, drawing his sword to cut off the water, and the attack was dissipated between the clouds and the flowing water.

Liu Ji naturally understood that this was not enough to solve Chu Jue, she had to find Chu Jue's weakness, attack it, and solve it quickly.

Chu Jue sneered, and swung the ancient sword freely in his hand. He still can't let Liu Ji go out, not yet.Chu Jue cut a deep groove with his sword, and said, "You can't pass."

Liu Ji glared and said, "You can't stop it."

Chu Jue sighed, "I'll ask you one more question. If you give up on regaining your soul, I'll let you go. I still have other options."

Liu Ji laughed loudly and said, "Brother, the 300-year game has come here? Are you asking me to give up? Are you stupid?"

Chu Jue nodded and said, "Yeah, it's a bit silly to ask you now. After all, you and I have the same origin. If you don't ask, I won't be able to explain it elsewhere. I got the answer, and then I don't have to show mercy. Be careful!" Then Extremely fast sword, stab, swipe, flick, stroke, all in one set, never seen Chu Jue use a sword so fast, Liu Ji had no chance of breakthrough at all.But Liu Ji found that although Chu Jue was ruthless, he still didn't find a killer move.

Chu Jue said: "Oh, there is another question. Did you resurrect Meng Ling? You manipulated her and then led her to find Xuan Mingzi. This is to disturb Hu Yue's mind."

Liu Ji gritted her teeth to block the sword move, and said, "So what? Didn't you also take advantage of the left move? Otherwise, where did you come from for the 300 years of "Marquis of Chu"? King Zhao died of a recurrence of an arrow injury shortly after he ascended the throne. Use Zuo Yiqi to act as a counselor next to King Zhao, and ask him to pave the way for you, so that you can stand up to Li Dai. What you want, I would never have imagined. Zuo Yiqi is your pawn. You always like to play risky chess, This move is between life and death for you."

Chu Jue gave a wry smile and continued to block.But not the killer.One is to break through, and the other is to procrastinate.Because Chu Jue refused to make a move for a long time, Liu Ji rushed out without any scruples.Just like the battle at the bottom of the mountain, the two sides cut off their retreat, and only hoped that the final victory would belong to them.And Chu Jue looked towards the direction Hu Yue was heading, and frowned slightly, but then he stopped thinking and faced Liu Ji.He has no time to distract himself.

The mountain trails that Hu Yue walks seem to be isolated from all outside killings. When it is quiet, Hu Yue can clearly hear the sound of his feet stepping on dead leaves. This place is weird and four seasons coexist.Strange stone statues are scattered everywhere, like an abandoned Shinto, luxuriant vegetation and dead rocks coexist, these stone statues are incomplete, but all of the chests are missing a piece, as if to imply something.Gradually, he could hear the sound of running water.However, there was not even the slightest cry of animals in the mountains and forests.There are many fights, only here, there is no disturbance.

But it was not silent, Hu Yue opened a branch, and he could feel the figures in the woods, but after entering, the figures disappeared without a trace.It seems that he is the only one, but there seem to be many people here.These people either talked loudly, or sang long songs and beat drums, or lamented and sighed, laughed bitterly and cursed among the mottled shadows of the trees.

Hu Yue found that the words among these people were more or less extremely subtle, and some truths could be called the theory of ghosts and gods, which were unheard in the world.The more he listened, the more he felt that many of his past thoughts had been echoed.

"The world of society, the affairs of the world, why have they been gathered under one family name for hundreds of thousands of years? How can the rise and fall of a family replace the rise and fall of the world."

"Separation and reunion, all kinds of things in the world, for a long time, we must divide, and for a long time, we must reunite. How should life and death be dealt with? The country is no longer, and the people are still alive. To die for the subjugation of the country is called a great festival, but to live for the people is to live. What to do!"

"The sun, the moon and the stars have their own trajectories, and the four seasons take turns without being hindered by manpower. The way of heaven is natural. Why do mediocre people insist on doing it for the sky? The sky has its own way, so why do you need to take the place of the sky?"

"Absurd! Absurd! Don't you know that the spirit of all things respects human beings, but all things in the world are seen by human eyes, heard by human ears, and spoken by human mouth. Eyes, ears, tongue, nose, body and mind are all human beings. How can we be respected? However, when the five aggregates are all empty, you will know what is the spirit of heaven and earth! How can people be honored?"

Lin Zhongzhi's words hit Hu Yue's heart every sentence, and he felt more and more heavy as he walked. Has he never thought about these questions?No he thought about it.But are there answers to these questions?Hu Yue knew in her heart that there was no answer to these questions.If God asked these questions, how could he answer Hu Yue?These eternal questions have been passed down to the world, how can he answer them as a person?And how can this be the real answer?

Hu Yue spoke wildly, roaring and sighing, and Hu Yue answered them one by one with his own wisdom.But he felt that these were beyond his ability to answer. 300 years ago, on a snowy night, King Zhao begged him to leave the mountain alone. He never joined the army, but waited in the mountains.However, if the enemy is so strong, it will take at least five years to grow its strength if it depends on stationing troops, but there are so many variables within five years.Until King Zhao took out the "Life and Death Talisman" handed down from his family.Only then did he use the Jiuyuan Tianwen, which was once only spread in the Chu land, and when he understood that the opening of Tianwen could change the sky, he designed to enter the game, just to let King Zhao go through the mountain here and fight the enemy to the death.This battle drew out all the main forces of the enemy bandits, so it seemed like moths were flying into the flames, but it was really a gamble that would determine the fate of the world.His decision was to use King Zhao's fate to gamble on a chance to end the war as quickly as possible.

After 300 years, he still wants to take a big gamble, because if he fails, the 300-year history will be wiped out, maybe King Zhao still has a way out, maybe he can make a comeback, maybe another king will emerge from the other side to end the war.But the people and things experienced in these 300 years no longer exist.

However...he had to answer the question of heaven in the end, the land of the gods in Hu Yue's memory, the last question, the final result was half of success and half of defeat.So he has a chance to start another game in 300 years.Everything is God's will.When he got back all the memories, he understood that he was destined to come here.Chu Jue extended his ten years of peace with his own efforts.This is already the limit.

Voices range from clear to distant, and trails get wider.After walking for a while, Hu Yue found strangely that although there were flowers among the trees, they were all flowers as bright as red blood without any other colors.It's just that these flowers bloom and fade almost in an instant, and they are fragrant in an instant.

The path leads to seclusion, but it also has an end.At the end of the path is a bridge with a sign on the bank.There are two ancient seal characters written on it: Wenqiao.Hu Yue found that the font was exactly the same as the signature that appeared in his dream.

Hu Yue only felt dizzy for a while, so she stabilized her mind and started to walk forward.When he came to the bridge, he stopped.The strangeness of this bridge is that two smaller streams under the bridge converge into one large stream.And one of the two streams has nothing in it, as clear as a mirror, while the other river is very turbid, but there seems to be fish flowing in the gray-white river water.There should be fish in clear water, but fish are born in turbid water. Even if they end up in a river, the two completely different water veins are already incompatible and distinct.

This is the sixth pass of the Eight Diagrams, the battle against the palace.Compared with other formations, this is the least aggressive and quietest one.It is almost impossible to see that this is the last mountain of the three mountains.Hu Yue didn't dare to be careless, he carefully observed everything around him, and finally kept his eyes on the water surface.

The clear surface of the water reflected his appearance. Because of running around, his hair is disheveled now, and the branches of the original hairpin are gone, but his eyes have changed, no longer muddled, no longer without waves, but It is extremely quiet and sharp, these are the eyes that originally belonged to Hu Yue, the original Hu Yue who sat deep in the mountains and cared about the world.

Hu Yue stared at the opposite side of the bridge, it was an upside-down scene, Hu Yue would never forget that this place used to be the stone statues he dreamed about in the inner mirror.But there is no tower, and now all Hu Yue has to do is cross the bridge.Although this has nothing to do with the strange tower in his heart, there is a little overlap. Hu Yue understands that what he passed 300 years ago was a strange tower array, but now the strange tower is gone.The bridge in front of us became a new pass.

Hu Yue breathed out, he lifted the hem of his clothes, and stretched out his feet to step on it.But when he stepped on the bridge, it turned into smoke, and the bridge reappeared after he stepped back.And after it appeared again, the bridge became very unstable, as if it would collapse at any time.Hu Yue knew that if he tried blindly, he might miss the opportunity.So I no longer easily set foot on this strange bridge.Instead, focus on these two distinct streams.

But if you don't pass the bridge, you have to walk across the stream.Hu Yue waded again, but the two waters seemed to sense each other. He stepped into it, but he couldn't wad at all, and the stream was still not far from him.He tried several times, but to no avail.The size here is very small, with one bridge and two waters, it doesn't seem to be something supernatural, but Hu Yue, who has seen through the situation, has no way to deal with it for a while.

The change of gossip makes this array another way to embody the concept of exchange.This hurdle is put at the end but it is also clear, if it is a question from heaven, it is natural to say it, in the gossip, Dui Nai said it.

Hu Yue closed her eyes: "It is said that although the plot here is consistent with the Dui hexagram. But after a closer look, there are some inconsistencies. Duidanghe, blending is the phase of duplication, but now it is not considered separation if you want to be united. In this situation, Hu Yue can't understand the deep meaning here."

Hu Yue frowned, he thought of the situation in Meilin breaking the Ligong Formation, where ice and fire are two layers of heaven, using one hexagram to restrain another hexagram.But now this is the last hexagram, and Gen Palace has a forbidden function, which happens to be opposite to Dui Suo.But... Gen is a mountain, and Dui is a lake, but how can the mountain and the lake use their strength?
