Chapter 913 The Vientiane Army Formation

Zhou Ran came to the Royal Palace of Ying City, Jing Guo was training his troops and horses on the school field in the palace.

A strong enemy is approaching, even if you just grind your guns in front of the battle, it is better than nothing.

On the sidelines of the school grounds, Jing Kang, the lord of Jingguo, and a group of ministers were all watching carefully, and everyone had a very serious expression on their faces.

Zhou Ran walked over, National Teacher Lin Zhongze saw Zhou Ran, and immediately greeted him.

"Layman Qingfeng, you really kept your word and came back in just half a day! How is the situation with Hei Lu?"

"I don't know for the time being. I have nothing to do, so I'll come and take a look."

Lin Zhongze was stunned, and said: "There is information in the world that Heilu doesn't even know. It can be seen that what Lay Qingfeng wants to know is not ordinary information."

Zhou Ran smiled, without going into details, he pointed to the soldiers on the school field, and asked, "Is this the strength of Jing Guo?"

Lin Zhongze said: "This is the Imperial Guard Army of the Jing Kingdom, with a strength of 5,000 troops. Once the soldiers of the Qing Kingdom overwhelm the border, the Imperial Guards will go to the front line and fight to the death with the Qing Army."

"Five thousand troops?"

The corner of Zhou Ran's mouth curled up. The war in the Zhenwu world is different from the war on the earth. It is not easy to gather 5,000 troops.

These soldiers of the imperial guards are all above the level of innate.

However, in the army, teamwork has always been emphasized, no matter how strong the individual is, they are not allowed to fight on their own.

Although there are not many people, the imperial guards cooperate seamlessly, and they are very skilled in attack, defense, and positioning. If they really go to the battlefield, they can also exert extremely strong combat power.

Zhou Ran watched silently, and saw that the Imperial Guard soldiers were divided into four square formations, each with more than a thousand people.

"Four Elephant Army Formation?" Zhou Ran blurted out.

Lin Zhongze who was beside him hurriedly said: "Scholar Qingfeng really has good eyesight, this is exactly Jingzong's Four Elephant Army Formation! In previous wars, 5,000 soldiers of the imperial guards would mix into Jingzong's phalanx, and the Marquis of Wuyang would command the battle. However, after Jingzong's fall, the Four Elephant Army Formation can only be used by the imperial guards themselves."

Zhou Ran gave a wry smile.

Jingguo relies too much on the sect's power, even if there is a war, the sect's leadership will follow, and the imperial guards can only fight.

I have faced the Four Elephant Army formation before, this formation is nothing, if I really use the Four Elephant Army formation to face the Qing Kingdom, I am afraid that I will be completely defeated.

Lin Zhongze looked at Zhou Ran thoughtfully, and said, "Master Qingfeng, do you have any opinion on the formation of the Four Elephant Army?"

Zhou Ran pointed to the soldiers on the school field: "The Four-Elephant Army Formation is the formation that Jingzong is best at. Jingzong only has a few hundred disciples, and the Four-Elephant Army Formation can withstand thousands of troops. But once thousands of troops are deployed, the tail is too big to lose, just like a dagger, a small dagger can be held in the hand and used at will, but if the dagger becomes bigger, it will become heavy and clumsy, losing its original advantage."

Lin Zhongze admired Zhou Ran's words.

No wonder the lord of the country spent a lot of effort to win over Zhou Ran, Zhou Ran is indeed very knowledgeable.

The remarks just now are worth thousands of troops.

Lin Zhongze couldn't wait to say: "What Layman Qingfeng said is very true. In the past, when Jingguo encountered enemies, he used the four-element army formation, which always gave people the feeling that he couldn't use it. In the end, the five thousand imperial guards became spectators instead. Explain that the Four Elephant Army Formation does have some disadvantages. However, the enemy is in the face, and it is too late to hold Buddha's feet temporarily. I wonder if Layman Qingfeng has any good ideas?"

Of course Zhou Ran knew Lin Zhongze's intentions, so he didn't keep it any longer, and said directly: "There are many formations in the world, not only the Four-Elephant Army Formation, but the Five Thousand Imperial Guards. The Four-Elephant Army Formation cannot be used. Forget it!"

"The Vientiane Army Formation?" Lin Zhongze was overjoyed. Just by hearing the name, he knew that the Vientiane Army Formation was a formation suitable for thousands of troops. "It's just that I don't know how to use the Wanxiang Army Formation. I also ask Master Qingfeng to give me some advice."

"Okay! Master Guoshi, take me down!"

"good!"

Lin Zhongze immediately came to the lord Jing Kang, and told Zhou Ran everything he had just said.

When Jing Kang heard this, he was overjoyed.

"If Layman Qingfeng is willing to help, Jingguo will be safe!"

With the approval of the king, Lin Zhongze brought Zhou Ran to the school grounds.

Gao Yan, the commander of the imperial guards, came to see him.

Lin Zhongze pointed to Zhou Ran, and introduced to Gao Yan: "This is Layman Qingfeng, he has created a new formation for the imperial guards, and he will be in charge of practicing it for the time being."

"Let him come?"

Gao Yan showed displeasure.

Where did Zhou Ran come from? He actually got over his head and snatched his command of the Imperial Guard.

"My lord, the enemy is at hand, and the imperial guards are not even very proficient in the formation of the Four Elephant Army. If they practice other formations temporarily, I'm afraid it will be too late." Gao Yan said in disbelief.

Lin Zhongze trusted Zhou Ran quite a bit, and said: "This is the meaning of the Lord, Commander Gao, you should take a break!"

Gao Yan snorted coldly, and said: "The general is out, and the king's order is not acceptable! It is a matter of Jingguo's life and death, even if it is the order of the lord, I, Gao Yan, will never accept it!"

Lin Zhongze was a little speechless, why was the commander of the imperial guard so stubborn?

Just didn't know what to say, but Zhou Ran spoke.

"Commander Gao, I only need half a day. If my formation doesn't work, from now on, I won't bother with the Guards."

"That's what you said, I only give you half a day!"

Gao Yan reached an agreement with Zhou Ran.

The practice of the formation can take a few days at most, and even a few months at most. This guy is so boastful that it only takes half a day.

I originally thought that Zhou Ran was a character, but from this point of view, it was nothing more than that. It turned out that he was just a rookie who was not familiar with military affairs. Why should I care about such a person?

Gao Yan retreated to the side of the school grounds to rest, Lin Zhongze came to Zhou Ran, and whispered: "Master Qingfeng, half a day is enough to practice the formation? Don't try to talk so fast that you will suffer a big loss."

"Don't worry, I have a measure!"

Zhou Ran responded to Lin Zhongze with a smile, Lin Zhongze stopped talking and stepped aside.

All the idlers left, and Zhou Ran came before the soldiers of the Imperial Guard.

"Soldiers of the Imperial Guard, I will teach you a brand-new formation. After mastering this formation, the combat power of the Jingguo Imperial Guard will be doubled! You are all very good fighters. The so-called sounding the drum does not require a heavy hammer. , I will only give you half a day to familiarize yourself with the formation, and after half a day, if you are unable to use this formation and fight against the Qing Kingdom, then you don't have to go!"

After leaving a word, Zhou Ran carefully told every soldier of the Imperial Guard how to use the Vientiane Army Formation.

The soldiers of the imperial guards had been in the army for a long time, and they had already formed the habit of obedience. They all listened carefully to Zhou Ran's lectures on formations, and silently remembered them.
