Chapter 2138: Bai Qi’s Eight Formations (Part 2)

Although Bai Qi does not have conventional commander skills, his basic commander level is 106, and this is not his limit. He will be further improved in the future. It can be said that he is almost at the pinnacle of the commander profession.

 In terms of uniting the army to fight, what is impossible for others is simply a piece of cake for Bai Qi, because he has already stood at the top, and when he looks back at the scenery behind him, there is naturally nothing to be surprised about.

 But regarding the matter of moving the Longmen Formation, even Bai Qi was still in trouble.

Although Bai Qi doesn't use formations very much when marching and fighting, it doesn't mean that he is not good at it.

 Formation is a necessary skill for famous generals. Famous generals with more than 100 commanders basically have their own unique insights, not to mention Bai Qi, who has a basic command of 106?

The reason why Bai Qi knew how to use the formation but didn't use it was that it was unnecessary and he was burdened by his reputation.

With his reputation and record, he can win every battle without any formation. If he sets up a formation, no one would dare to break it. So what's the point of setting up an formation?

There are two reasons why Bai Qicai rarely uses battle formations, but this does not mean that he is not very accomplished in battle formations.

Bai Qi is a person who is not greedy for money, lustful, or power-hungry. His only hobby is fighting and studying various military techniques and formations.

 Most of his free time is spent either reading military books or deducing formations in front of the sand table.

 Bai Qi basically knows all the famous formations that have been spread for thousands of years, and he has mastered them and used them freely. He has basically stood at the top of the formation path.

If Li Shimin was half as good as Bai Qi, he wouldn't have been studying the Longmen Formation for so long. Even though he was as high-density as Sima Yi, he still couldn't build a real Longmen Formation.

It is precisely because Bai Qi's formation attainments are high enough that he can completely control top-level formations such as the Eight Formations in such a short period of time.

Bai Qi is actually very interested in top-level formations such as the Eight Formation Diagram and the Dragon Gate Formation. However, these two formations are already regarded as the unique skills of Zhuge Liang and Xue Rengui, and he can't force them if they are not willing.

What Bai Qi didn't expect was that before the war started, Zhuge Liang took the initiative to ask Bai Qi whether the eight formations could be moved.

Bai Qi didn’t think much at the time and replied: “All formations in the world can be moved.”

After getting a positive reply from Bai Qi, Zhuge Liang proposed to teach Bai Qi how to arrange the eight formations.

How can Bai Qi refuse such a good thing like pie in the sky? Naturally, he agreed decisively.

　　Early before the war started, Zhuge Liang passed the eight formation diagram to Bai Qi.

With Bai Qi's attainments in formations, and under Zhuge Liang's guidance, after a full month of study, his mastery of the eight formations surpassed Zhuge Liang's.

Although Zhuge Liang created the Eight Formations, the formation he created was so sophisticated that even he himself could not fully control it, so that he was overtaken by Bai Qi who came from behind.

Although Bai Qi’s understanding of the Eight Formations surpassed Zhuge Liang’s, he still couldn’t make the Eight Formations move.

 The internal structure of the eight-array diagram is too complicated. If you want to move it, three conditions must be met.

 First, the military must have extremely high overall quality and must obey orders and prohibitions.

 Second, the general is able to drive each squadron like an arm. This kind of command ability is rare in the world.

 Three, the general must have great computing power and be able to do two things at once. While commanding the army, he must calculate every change in the formation and make contingency preparations in advance.     In addition to the first point, the last two of the three points are extremely harsh.

 Zhuge Liang’s calculation ability is sufficient, but his command level is not enough, while Su Dingfang, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and other generals have sufficient command ability but insufficient calculation ability.

At present, Bai Qi is probably the only one in the Qin army who can do both, but...

Bai Qi's command ability is more than sufficient, and his calculation ability is sufficient, but when he is multitasking, his calculation ability will drop significantly, which also makes him unable to master the formation perfectly.

 The eight formation map with a strength of 160,000 people cannot make any mistakes. If the formation is messed up, the consequences will be disastrous.

Just when the plan reached a deadlock, Qin Hao proposed that Bai Qi set up and control the formation, while Zhuge Liang was responsible for assisting in calculations, so as to make up for Bai Qi's lack of computing power.

 As a common sense, unless two people have the same mind, the formation formed by two people will not be as good as that of one person.

But at this time, what the Qin army wanted was for the eight formations to move without causing chaos, rather than for them to be too mysterious, so naturally the standard could be lowered.

Qin Hao's proposal also made Bai Qi and Zhuge Liang's eyes light up. After the number theory sand table deduction, the two found that they could indeed complement each other after joining forces, so a bold plan was born.

Qin Hao deliberately asked Bai Qi to lay out eight formations, just to confuse and paralyze Nurhaci and make the Qing army think that the Qin army's infantry could not move. Only in this way would they target the cavalry in order to allow the infantry to complete the attack on the entire battlefield. Surrounded vertically.

That's right, whether it was three hours of negotiations or the effort to move eight formations, Qin Hao's goal from beginning to end was to minimize casualties.

However, the Eight Banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties came and went like the wind and would not give the Qin army a chance to encircle them. That's why Qin Hao turned a corner and staged such a big show.

But the effect is also impressive. If it goes well, the Qin army can at least reduce tens of thousands of damage.

 At the center of the eight formation diagram, the general platform is on top.

Bai Feifeng waved the formation flag quickly and quickly issued military orders one after another, which caused each small formation in the large formation to take action quickly.

The eight formation diagram uses the four realms of Qian, Kun, Xun, Gen, as the main formation of heaven and earth, as the main soldiers, and the water, fire, gold, and wood as the four strange formations of dragon, tiger, bird, and snake, as the surprise troops.

In the main formation, the northwest is Gandi, and Qian is the sky formation; the southwest is Kundi, and Kun is the earth formation; the southeast is Xunju, and Xun is the wind formation; the northeast is Genju, and Gen is the mountain. Clouds emerge from mountains and rivers, forming cloud formations.

 Strange formations, with the Green Dragon Formation on the left, the White Tiger Formation on the right, the Suzaku Formation in the front, and the Black Tortoise Snake Formation in the back.

The eight formations of Zhengqi are arranged in the general formation. The total formation is eighty-eight sixty-four formations, of which there are 24 formations for Yang and 24 formations for Yin. Together with the 24 formations of Rangers, they form an unparalleled eight formations. picture.

The Eight Formation Diagram is all-encompassing, ever-changing, and contains great principles. Even its creator, Zhuge Liang, has not fully understood it. The difficulty of making it move is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky.

 But now, with the cooperation of Bai Qi and Zhuge Liang, the eight formation diagram, which can be called the most complex in the world, actually keeps the posture of the formation and moves faster and faster.

This is completely making history, and people can’t believe it is true.
