The chiefs were stunned and scra force Everyone wanted to take thethe main force of the Golden Roc Fort
The Golden Roc Fort’s cou Xian, and he was also a barbarian Gu Shenwei has never heard of such a person in the fort It was rueneral of a small country who had been recruited by the Stone Castle He was quite formidable in the art of military formations
No one within the Great Snow Gu Shenwei, paid any attention or value to this opponent Fang Wenshi+ praised this person’s literary talent, but he did not regard hieneral
The battle site was a flat and narrow grassland The north side was close off by the towering Sky Mountains There was a large river flowing along the south, which was called the Peacock River On the other side, the grassland gradually transitioned into the Gobi Desert
In order to figure out how to fight this battle, Gu Shenwei listened to the opinions of many people but ultimately decided to follow his own ideas The swordsmen from the Great Snow Wenshi+ had many battle arrays in mind, all of which were learned from ancient books One was more complicated than the previous one, which caused Gu Shenwei’s brain to swim in confusion, not to e, that is, the place closest to the mountains, with swordsmen from the Greatsword Peak and the Sht wing, close to the riverside, would be guarded by the Danduo Peak of more than 600; More than 400 from the Canopy Peak to be sandwiched in the middle A total of 1,600 cavalrymen, each of them was equipped with a round shi+eld that can protect the upper body This was because the Golden Roc Fort was likely to have a large number of archers
Gu Shenanted to personally participate in the battle This was the duty of the leader of the Great Snow Wenshi+, he stayed on a small hill less than half a mile behind
“This is the confrontation between the twoWenshi+ was bitterly persuading the Dragon King “The commander-in-chief has to control the overall situation, and there is sufficient reserve power on hand You would only be able to take on about 100 on your own if you charged in, you can’t guarantee victory for the entire ar up the hill, he was able to clearly see the whole battlefield However, Gu Shenwei had only 100 or so fro the commander-in-chief’s banner The banner was made from Gu Shenwei’s black robes that had been stained with blood, which was recognized as a sacred object in the hearts of all the swordspole

The swordsmen of the Great Snow faeous warriors were on the front lines Behind them were the swordsmen of other surnames There was no clear front line, but everyone decided howar from far away The Golden Roc Fort had more numbers than the Great Snowmountain, about 4,000 total Their formation was extremely neat The first tere archers The last five roere infantry with pikes On the left wing, they arranged a teaht cavalry Their numbers were small, estis of different colors fluttering in the wind
Co a killer Gu Shenwei believed that the Great Snowmountain would definitely win, but his heart was not at ease He hoped to be at the front line Although observing fro that things were not under control He was not used to being on the sidelines as he greatly preferred the style of surprise attacks and pursuits
