Gongsun Cha took his forty subordinates and carefully advanced.
This time, Gongsun Cha completely gave up on the idea of using the Same Heart necklace. He could only take the forty people and depart.
On the surface, this kind of combat power was very strong. In reality, for a troop battle, this kind of power composition was extremely terrible. Their use was the same, meaning that the troop lacked variation.
In the war chess that Zuo Mo forged, the units were either yaomo or mo. Xiuzhe were the least. Other than a few classic combinations of xiuzhe, there was nothing else that he could use as a reference. In comparison, the combinations of yaomo soldier types were numerous and extremely detailed. Sometimes, he couldn't help but suspect that the elder inside Zuo Shixiong's body was an old yaomo.
It was just that the feeling of losing was really terrible!
Yin fire beads, seal soldiers, and Golden Armor Guards. Adding on the illusory formations and traps, their safety was guaranteed.
No matter if it was xiuzhe or yaomo, the combinations of soldier types were very particular. For example, the classic sword seal combinations of xiuzhe, the sword meditation combinations, and the yaomo combinations were even more varied.
He lost again.
The White Scale Guard was a common low level soldier type in war chess. He had used it countless times. He was able to use the power of the three Golden Armor Guards to their fullest potential. War chess had given him great inspiration and help. However, what he did not understand was that the power of the three Golden Armor Guards clearly far surpassed normal White Scale Guards.
This guess was not out of place. Other people might not be able to see the true face of the Golden Armor Guards, but how could Gongsun Cha, who had personally commanded for so long, not know?
So Gongsun Cha had unhesitatingly made him the core, and made special tactics for him.
"Half a month … …" Gongsun Cha looked at Zuo Mo. "Then what?"
Even more, while formations could increase combat power, they were not omnipotent. In battle, the situation could change in an instant. It was a test of the commander's insight and adaptability, as well as the teamwork between his teammates.
Even though he knew this was the most logical and normal conclusion, and he could learn many things from each failure, but he was still not satisfied! He hated failure. Maybe it was more accurate to describe it as hate.
Because the other would play war chess with him.
If a troop only had sword xiu, then the other only needed to stop the first wave of attacks. What would follow would be large scale sword xiu casualties.
A faint blush flashed across Gongsun Cha's feminine and handsome face. His first battle, had come!
However, he immediately thought of the necklace he mentioned before. "Has the magic weapon been refined?"
Gongsun Cha was at the very center of the group. Several powerful experts were by his side. Ma Fan was roaming nearby.
If one didn't manage the household, one wouldn't know the price of food and fuel. There were only forty people and Zuo Mo already felt the pressure. Especially in Little Mountain Jie where the ling energy was thin, the only things that could replenish ling energy were ling grains and jingshi. However, the intensity of the training could not be reduced. They were fighting for time with the demon army.
"Use battle to nurture battle!" Zuo Mo did not hesitate and said.
Three people to one combat unit was something Gongsun Cha had no other choice. The Three Talents Formation was the simplest formation, but it was this simplest formation that these people had yet to master.
Sorting out his emotions, Gongsun Cha headed into the camp.
These three Golden Armor Guards were the White-Scaled Guards of the Yao Guards.
His opponent was most proficient in wrestling, and he was simply unparalleled. It was common to see the other kill in an unreasonable and arrogant manner. In the originally stalemate situation, once contact occurred and the two sides started to fight, it signaled the start of Gongsun Cha's defeat. His territory was like a crispy biscuit. First, it cracked and crumbled, and then the gap grew larger until it became the collapse of the entire battle line.
Gongsun Cha cleverly did not ask. That elder's soul had not been destroyed, and it was not hard to accept that he was residing in Zuo Shixiong's body. Thinking about Zuo Shixiong's sudden rise in the past two years, it added some evidence to his speculation.
Large scale battles and single combat were completely different. Sword cultivators were the kings of duels. Their powerful and incisive attacks and incomparably fast speed gave them an absolute advantage in duels. They were able to suppress their opponents to the point where they could not breathe. In duels, sword cultivators only needed to consider how to kill their opponents before they could threaten their weaknesses. But in group battles, especially large scale group battles, sword xiu usually needed the protection of other xiuzhe from the side to be able to express their great offensive power.
Alright, in reality, he didn't need too many changes. Gongsun Cha could only tell himself this.
"I understand." Zuo Mo spread his hands. "But I don't have enough materials."
Also, that mysterious elder was clearly an expert at War Chess. His tactics had reached perfection, and his offensive power was enough to make people's hair stand on end. Every time the battle reached its climax, he would suddenly have a feeling that the other side was a large man with a heavy hammer and a fiery temper!
In any case, after breaking through Little Mountain Jie, everyone would go their separate ways. Zuo Shixiong had told him this more than once. The reason was very simple. He could not afford to raise such a large group of people.
The later they left Little Mountain Jie, the more dangerous it would be.
Zuo Mo did not lie about this.
To ensure safety, Zuo Mo had set up formations around the mountain valley. He mainly used illusory formations. His formation skills had improved greatly compared to before. The little illusory formations and killing formations were linked together. They were not very powerful, but they were more than enough to confuse and disturb the enemy.
In large scale battles, what mattered was strategic foresight.
Like the Golden Armor Guards. Their cultivation was between ningmai first stratum and second stratum, but their power far surpassed normal ningmai second stratum xiuzhe. How could the yao guards that were forged from ancient dragon bones, Golden Crow Fire, and the Nether Pool be normal?
He was slightly dissatisfied!
The other ten combat units maintained a certain distance from each other. Ma Fan was alone in the space between these combat units.
Many times, Gongsun Cha was puzzled. In his view, this mysterious person's ability to command was much higher than his own, and was a more suitable candidate. Zuo Shixiong did not use the strong, and gave such an important and troublesome task to a novice like him.
Those that could live until now were people that had strength and were not stupid. In such a cruel environment, the peak of zhuji was just enough to survive. Ningmai first stratum could only be considered normal. Ningmai second stratum was already the top power of a small group, and ningmai third stratum could be ranked among the experts. As to jindan, there was only one.
This unwillingness flashed through his heart, and then he buried it deep in his heart. There was no use in feeling sorry for himself. War Chess might be completely different from real battle, but this was the only place he could learn how to command a battle. There was no room for him to be picky.
If they were put on the battlefield of a large scale battle, they wouldn't even count as the most basic combat unit. To command a small troop like this, the most important thing was formations and teamwork. Formations were something unique to xiuzhe. From the simplest Three Talent Formation to the super large formations that required tens of thousands of xiuzhe to set up together, all of them could greatly increase combat power.
What fun, what an interesting thing!
Violence, brutality, a rampage!
Zuo Mo really wanted to go, but thinking about Chun Yu Cheng who was focused on the beast pool, he decided to stay. He also left the three Golden Armor Guards behind. Of course, he said eloquently. Since it was real combat, then he would fight.
Gongsun Cha did not care at all if the mysterious person was yaomo or not.
But just forty people … …
The skill level of that mysterious opponent was very high. He didn't know anything about the mysterious person. He didn't even find any trace of this mysterious person in his daily life. But he knew that this mysterious person that he had never seen before truly existed.
He pondered for a while and threw the question to the back of his mind. He had finally found something that he was interested in, and there was such a challenging battle waiting for him. Just thinking about it made him excited, from the bottom of his heart!
The reason was very simple. The weaker xiuzhe had already died.
In terms of prosperity, Little Mountain Jie could not compare to Sky Moon Jie. Naturally, there weren't as many experts as Sky Moon Jie. But in terms of cruelty, Sky Moon Jie could not compare to the present Little Mountain Jie. Twenty eight ningmai. In Sky Moon Jie, it wasn't a small force, but in the present Little Mountain Jie, it wasn't much.
Due to the side effects of jingshi, it could not be used too much. The rate of consumption was not as fast as ling grains. Zuo Mo quickly felt he couldn't keep up.
"This can't continue," Zuo Mo said decisively, "The ling grains on my hands can only last half a month."
Sword xiu were the xiuzhe with the strongest offensive power, but they did have weaknesses. Compared to other xiuzhe, sword xiu mostly lacked the ability to fight for long periods of time. Also, sword xiu were heavy on offense and light on defense. Their other weakness was that their defensive abilities were too weak.
Glancing at Ma Fan, Gongsun Cha couldn't help but be satisfied. Of everyone, Ma Fan was the one he valued the most. Other than his strong combat abilities, his comprehension abilities that surpassed other people, and he could always quickly understand Gongsun Cha's intentions.
Even though the other would use Zuo Shixiong as a cover, but the difference in skill between the two was too great. Gongsun Cha could easily distinguish it.
Every three sword xiu would form a combat unit. Three combat units, one at the front, the other two at the front, forming a triangle. They were the frontlines. Gongsun Cha had chosen the fastest flying sword xiu.
Gongsun Cha looked at the battle situation riddled with holes, and the sparse remaining troops. He couldn't help but grimace. He couldn't remember how many times he had lost.
There were too many problems that he needed to worry about.
However, it wasn't so easy to form a formation. The people inside the formation had to remember each other's positions and changes. This batch of xiuzhe hadn't even completely mastered the simplest Three Talent Formation. The difficulty could be imagined.
But of the twenty eight ningmai under Gongsun Cha's command, twenty six were sword xiu. The remaining two, one was a blade xiu, the other a dhyana xiu. They were all combat xiuzhe, and there were no xiuzhe that could support them.
Just at this time, news came from the front. There was a situation!
"This is the only way." Gongsun Cha was slightly helpless. These forty people were far from what he had expected. However, he didn't have a better solution to the problem that Shixiong had mentioned.
Using the Three Talent Formation as an example, the energies of the three people inside the formation would be connected to each other. It could greatly increase the connection between them. It was a very practical formation. Some higher level formations would have special killing moves. Once they were activated, the sky would change color, and the power would be unparalleled.
