My Cultivation Starting from Archery Chapter 294 - 155: Winning Without a Fight3

That is to say, in the Eastern Territory now, the Crown Prince has two elite troops totaling twenty thousand, along with two Martial Saints, and an unknown number of Mysterious Phenonons. Among the rest of the various troops, there might also be people belonging to the Crown Prince, but their specific identities and numbers are unknown.

After the assembly of the five thousand Hu Ben Army troops was complete, they rushed to the frontline under the leadership of Cui Congyi that very afternoon, and two followers of the Incense Fire Divine Sect also vanished without a trace.

According to the information we have, their first target is to attack Zhao Tong Prefecture, the second-largest city in Lai State.

Chen Sansi and the Xuanjia Army, on the other hand, will have to remain in Tongnan Prefecture for a period of ti to conduct drills and coordination exercises.

"Junior brother,"

Fang Qingyun spoke, "I arrived earlier than you, and in order to reduce the ti you spend on drills, I took the liberty of practicing so of the formations from the Heavenly Book in advance."

"Heavenly Book?" Chen Sansi asked, "Could it be His Majesty..."

"Yes,"

Fang Qingyun took out a prepared book, "His Majesty had the Heavenly Book translated for , and then put it to use in military formations. I have also tried practicing them, and indeed, the formations within are very profound. They seem to have a subtle way of harnessing the forces of heaven and earth. It’s just that sothing seems to be missing, perhaps only the so-called Select of Immortals can truly recreate the montum of the Red Eyebrow Army’s great victory."

"Senior brother, actually..."

Just as Chen Sansi began to speak, he was interrupted by Fang Qingyun, "Junior brother, you don’t have to tell everything. Everyone has their secrets, which is very normal. As long as the Heavenly Book seen by His Majesty is real, that’s enough."

"Thank you, senior brother,"

Chen Sansi and Fang Qingyun shared a tacit understanding and did not delve deeper into the discussion, "Then I will start the drills."

He scattered the twenty followers he had brought and integrated them into the different units of the Xuanjia Army, then began to devote ti to practicing the formations from the Heavenly Book. Due to ti constraints and with exactly three thousand troops, they mainly practiced charge formations and guerrilla tactics.

One was called the Jiuxiao Heavenly Soldiers Formation, and the other was called the Luo Heaven Ghost Mist Formation.

Among them, the Jiuxiao Heavenly Soldiers Formation was the strongest formation they practiced, and it was also the one they mainly practiced. It had been used during the great victory of the Red Eyebrow Army.

Under the guidance of keywords like "Training Soldiers Skillfully" and the support of the Imperial Horse General Qian Xun, they were able to refine the Jiuxiao Heavenly Soldiers Formation to be well-organized in just ten short days, building on its existing foundation. Amidst the myriad of colored flags, the sound of war drums and bugle calls, and equipped with Mystic Iron Armor and top-grade warhorses, from a distance, they truly looked as if three thousand Heavenly Soldiers had descended to the mortal world.

This was an unexpected joy for Chen Sansi.

After the Emperor put the military tactics from the Heavenly Book into use, the Xuanzhu could finally co into play.

"Junior brother, this..." Continue reading at .Côm

Fang Qingyun sat in a high place, looking down at the formation below and couldn’t help but lean forward slightly, "Your way of training soldiers is no less than mine, and with the addition of this White Horse, you might have even surpassed . Such a complex formation, yet you were able to fully master it in such a short period – it’s really quite..."

"Senior brother, you flatter ; it’s mainly due to Qian Xun’s role."

Chen Sansi looked at the White Swan Horse running through the battle formation, feeling that it saved ti and effort. If Xu Wencai had not been away, he could completely hand over the reins and devote all his ti to cultivation.

[Skill: Commanding Soldiers (small achievent)]

[Progress: 1825/2000]

The skill of Commanding Soldiers was also nearing a breakthrough.

The originally scheduled one-month drill ti.

In actuality, after just twenty days, Chen Sansi fully mastered the control of these three thousand elite Xuanjia troops.

There is a difference between making a na for oneself as a fledgling and training troops with fa. If this were before, it would have been impossible to control these proud and fierce soldiers without at least half a year’s ti. However, after the Four Crossings of Hongze River, the na Chen Sansi beca universally known and recognized.

The three Thousand Captains within the Xuanjia Army.

Were Xia Cong, Xiao Zheng, and You Jike, among whom Xia Cong also possessed the Body of an Innate Martial Saint and, having practiced Martial Arts for only four years, was on the verge of entering the ridian Passage Realm, destined to beco a Great General.

These three n, upon initially seeing Chen Sansi’s youthful face, had so difficulty in relating it to the Four Crossings of Hongze River during the first two days, even doubting whether it was true. But after spending so ti together, they beca completely convinced.

This was mainly because for thousands of years, history had never recorded such a young commander, not even Sun Xiangzong was this famous for Martial Arts when he was young, only starting his military career after twenty-five.

After the troops were fully prepared.

A group of more than ten thousand set out for the frontline.

Yongle Prefecture.

War is not only brutal but also incredibly tedious.

Especially during prolonged stalemates, the soldiers responsible for besieging a city have to endure the wind and sun, rain and lightning, freezing cold or scorching heat. Just stabilizing morale and keeping the army’s heart steady is a significant challenge. This is also one of the reasons why various surprise tactics docunted in history could be effective; humans are not machines, they do feel exhaustion, they can beco slack.

Facing one of the top five impregnable cities in the world, Yongle Prefecture, a large army of eighty thousand had early on built camps by felling trees and setting up barracks forty li away from the city, which also ford makeshift towns, thoroughly encircling Yongle Prefecture City. The soldiers drilled day and night, their lives orderly, as if they were not out besieging, but rather in their own hotowns.

These details clearly showed ng Quji’s high level of military governance.

Fang Qingyun spoke, "Junior brother, do you have any understanding of Marquis ng?"

"Since I’m coming here, of course, I’ve made special inquiries,"

Chen Sansi nodded, "ng Dashuai is also one of the most famous fierce generals of the Great Sheng Dynasty. He started out in the Jinyi Guard and climbed his way to the position of Marquis in just twenty years."
