Chapter 936

When the Liao people's sneak attack broke out, Sun Tu, who was already sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes and bounced up to the ground. At the same time, his sword on his waist was unsheathed, and he shouted loudly: "There is an enemy attack!" He immediately woke everyone in the camp.

In the wilderness, he already knew that there might be enemies nearby. Sun Tu was always alert even when he was asleep, so he reacted very quickly. When a Liao man waved his knife, the knife in his hand had already swung out, hitting the opponent's chest, and slashed him down.

At the same time, there were screams everywhere. The soldiers who were successfully attacked were hit one after another, and the Liao people quickly came from three sides, almost surrounding the entire camp. Xiao Yanping took the lead. The sword was like the wind, and a few slashes forced two soldiers to be in a hurry. The moment the flaws were revealed, they were killed on the spot. This incident made the Qingzhou army, which had already dispersed and calm, quickly lean towards Sun Tu's place while being shocked.

Compared with the ordinary Song army, the Qingzhou army was an elite force who had been tempered by many wars. After being frightened, it was not completely confused, and there was no sign of escaping everywhere. Instead, it took its own general as the core and formed a formation to protect itself. Sun Tu also hurriedly retreated at this moment and shouted: "The circular defense formation, defend the enemy's attack first!"

With the order of his backbone, the soldiers reacted more freely. They immediately occupied the position according to their own position and guarded the surroundings tightly. While waving swords and guns, they finally resolved the fierce attacks of the Liao people, and then retreated back apart again, widening the distance between them and the other party.

Although this circular guard formation looks simple, its defense is absolutely not ordinary. Each soldier can help each other and advance and retreat together. This is the best response when facing several times of the enemy. However, this formation also has extremely high requirements for soldiers. It is not consistent with the upper and lower levels. Those who are united cannot be united, because once any person in the formation hesitates and cannot rescue, the formation will have loopholes and then completely collapse. Only when the Qingzhou army has not been slackened for many years and has developed a mutually integrated Qingzhou army, can it be able to successfully form a formation in such a moment.

Even Xiao Yanping's courage had no good way to use this tightly guarded round formation. He rushed twice in a row, but not only found nothing, but was almost injured by the Song army, which scared him so much that he retreated quickly. As for the other Liao soldiers, they were even more injured, and in the end they had to retreat and form a formation around them, but their military formations were chaotic and uneven, and they could not compare with the Song army.

The two sides were twenty or thirty steps apart, and there was a bonfire jumping and burning beside them, illuminating everyone's figures and faces for a while, and distorted. But even so, they could see each other clearly, and Sun Tu's eyes shrank and stared at Xiao Yanping's face: "It's you..."

Xiao Yanping also stared at him, feeling so angry. He really didn't expect that the sneak attack, which he thought he had more than 80% chance of winning, would be like this. Although he killed more than ten people and had a huge advantage in numbers, he looked like he was at a disadvantage now. It seems that he still underestimated this Song General named Sun Tu too much, no wonder he could be regarded as a strong enemy by his master!

Xiao Yanping's judgment was not wrong. Although Sun Tu's number was only 30% of theirs, it was really not as weak as their combat power. But in fact, it was because Sun Tu did not bring other Song troops with them, which made their combat power stronger. If there were others here, a sneak attack just now would completely disrupt the camp. At that time, even if the Qingzhou army wanted to line up against the enemy, it would be difficult for them to quickly take shape.

The more important point lies in the Liao army itself, because they lacked crossbows. After losing this long-range attack method, they naturally felt like they didn't know where to start in the face of such defense. The strong attack just now proved that they did not have the upper hand.

Sun Tu's eyes reflected the firelight beside him, and slowly turned into a raging anger: "Okay, I'm still worried about not avenging those brothers, but you came to your door by yourself. Today I will let you pay your blood debts and pay for your life! Change the formation, the arrow formation!"

With his loud shout, the soldiers behind him had almost no sluggishness and had rapidly changed their formation, like a rage arrow that was gone, shouting, and using Sun Tu as an arrow, attacking and attacking the three times the Liao army.

The Qingzhou army is no better than the ordinary Song army. It can be said that in every battle in the past, they have achieved victory with less, so even if they face the Liao army this time, they have not seen any fear at all, and they are still moving forward bravely. After seeing this scene, the fighting spirit of the Liao army was ignited instantly. They all roared and raised their swords to greet them. Xiao Yanping even strode forward, found Sun Tu, and slashed it with one knife.

He had already seen that the Song army had indeed extraordinary combat power, and the key was Sun Tu, the leader. So as long as he killed him, the enemy would naturally collapse. But he obviously made a mistake in his plan. This seemingly fierce knife was easily blocked by Sun Tu, and at the same time he immediately counterattacked. The long sword leveraged the force and took the vital point of his chest, forcing him to return and rescue himself. The two swords quickly collided with each other.

Although Sun Tu, who was an arrow, was blocked from the offensive, the soldiers behind him were still on the verge of the Liao army. With their momentum and cooperation, they even drilled through the opponent's line and quickly expanded the gap as they killed the enemy.

It was at this moment that Sun Tucai and Xiao Yanping intersected. Without stopping at all, he continued to chop forward, killing a Liao soldier who had just raised his knife, and then shouted fiercely: "Run from the left!" As he said that, he led the team to kill in that direction.

As the main general, Sun Tu did not get confused because of the strong enemy in front of him. He knew very well that if he wanted to win, he might not have to fight Xiao Yanping for force. As long as he defeated his troops, it would be enough to leave the enemy behind. However, Xiao Yanping obviously failed to keep up with Sun Tu's rhythm. As soon as he turned around and wanted to fight, he found that the opponent was chasing the troops who were retreating to the side, which made him feel at a loss. After a while, he roared again and rushed to chase him. This time, he also learned to be smart and did not pursue Sun Tu again. Instead, he landed the target on the Song army behind, and slashed the two of them.

Now he really chose the right target. The front arrow formation is different from the defensive round formation. There are not many aid powers among the soldiers, but more about rushing and killing. When attacked by the enemy from the side, they use attack instead of defending. But in front of a brave general like Xiao Yanping, such counterattack is naturally not a threat. In a blink of an eye, several people have been attacked by him, and the rushing formation suddenly froze.

After hearing the screams from behind one after another, Sun Tu quickly retracted his feet and yelled again: "Sank! Yanyue Formation!" He turned around quickly. When he saw his eyes, the knife in his hand had rushed out again, and he took Xiao Yanping, who was slashing at a soldier with one sword, forcing the other party to put his sword away and defend himself. Then the two of them confronted each other again.

This time, Xiao Yanping, who already knew Sun Tu's mind, dared not let him leave the command and change the formation. He immediately used all his strength to entangle Sun Tu. At the same time, he also shouted: "Don't worry about the Song army formation, just rush hard and use his military strength to disperse them!"

This Liao army was originally formed by the merger of multiple armies and horses. At the beginning, they were thinking of selecting elite troops that had disrupted the rear of the Song army. However, this obviously ignored the tacit understanding developed by the soldiers during years of training in combat. Before, when there were horses, they could still make up for the problems based on the habits of the Liao people. But now, because they were all lost in life, they could only fight on foot, and their disadvantages were infinitely magnified. What they could do at this time was to follow their fighting nature and the advantage of numbers to launch a strong attack, hoping to trade life for life and eat the Song army.

The Liao army's desperate efforts really suppressed the Qingzhou army. Moreover, the Yanyue Formation is more suitable for the rushing in the open area. Now the place is limited and it is impossible to exert all its power. After a series of rushing, the enemy has cut it into several segments, and the responses they should have disappeared.

On the battlefield, the situation changed rapidly. As the main general, Sun Tu should have dealt with the moves and quickly ordered the formation to change. But at this time, he faced Xiao Yanping, who was constantly fighting like a mad tiger, and not to mention going back to take care of it, it was difficult for them to change the formation again. Often, when he was distracted, he wanted to say something, but the other party just took the key points with one sword, which made him have to shut up and deal with it with all his strength. Therefore, the Qingzhou army gradually increased casualties. Listening to the familiar scream, Sun Tu's breathing became heavy.

"Sun Tu, you are indeed a big trouble for me, the Liao Dynasty, but this time, even if I fight for this life, I will kill you for my Northern Dynasties, and your subordinates, etc." As I said something that disturbed Sun Tu's mind, Xiao Yanping's offensive became more and more fierce, and his sword was not far from Sun Tu's throat and other key points, but he did not care much about his own defense.

Sun Tu has not yet thought of dying with him, so he can only keep retreating and defending his life, hoping to find the flaws. But this also made him unable to see the overall situation and give reasonable orders. After taking a few steps back, his eyes suddenly swept to several bows beside the bonfire, which made him suddenly move: "Yes, why did I commit such a big confusion? The enemy does not use crossbows, we can use it!"

At this moment, after another move, he decisively shouted: "Use a crossbow to kill the enemy!" This sentence does not require any distraction to formulate strategies, so he simply said it.

Just after he said this, the sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded. The Liao army, who was fighting with the Song army, was screaming and overturning.

The situation reversed again...
