The Monkey King

On the morning of the fifth day after the monkeys broke into the Tianhe navy at night, the Tianhe navy finally appeared twenty miles away from Huaguoshan. They set up a formation, and the mighty hundreds of square formations seemed to cover the sky and the sun.

Different from the previous formation method, this time, the Tianhe Navy did not adopt a dense formation such as the Flying Geese Formation or the Front Arrow Formation. They adopted a dispersed Fish Scale Formation. And it is an extremely fragmented multi-layered fish scale array.

It seems that in order to deal with Huaguoshan's "thunderbolt", they distributed the warships to the upper, lower, left, right, front and rear of the military formation to act as a barrier. The decentralized fish scale formation ensured that Huaguoshan was unable to carry out a covering bombardment while maintaining a gradient defense. Even if Huaguo Mountain defeated one of the phalanxes, it would not cause chaos in the other phalanxes.

Of course, the price paid is that such a formation is extremely weak offensively, and in the final analysis it is nothing more than a defensive expediency.

In tit for tat, Huaguoshan also came out in full force and formed a formation, but the scale was much smaller than that of the Tianhe navy.

Firstly, Huaguo Mountain still adopts a dense front arrow formation, secondly...

Although counting all the monsters belonging to Huaguo Mountain, there are currently about 400,000 monsters under Monkey's command, and there are also 150,000 selected troops among them. However, those who are truly capable of fighting and equipped with all kinds of equipment, even those who obtained the last After a large amount of loot, the total is only about 100,000. Of course, a slight numerical disadvantage in war does not mean anything.

Accompanied by the slow-paced military drums of the Tianhe Navy Army, the three military formations at the forefront slowly advanced to distance themselves from the large group of people at the rear, and advanced for about five miles before stopping.

Tian Ren stood on the battleship in front of the military formation and shouted loudly: "The Tianhe navy, under the orders of the Jade Emperor, conquered the Huaguo Mountain! You monsters, why don't you die quickly!"

The voice was obviously powered by spiritual power, and was as thick as thunder.

"You monsters, come out and die soon!" All the soldiers of the Tianhe Navy shouted, holding their swords high.

"Our heads are right here, you come and chop them off!"

These words immediately caused a burst of laughter among the demon army.

"Where did they get the confidence? Did they forget so quickly that the 90,000-strong army was eaten by Huaguoshan not long ago?" Short Mouth, who was standing side by side with Monkey on the bow of the ship, also laughed dumbly and turned his face. Lai looked at the monkey and said, "Is it interesting for them to shout like this?"

"Maybe they find it interesting." Monkey touched his chin and thought carefully.

Across the compensating military formation. Monkey could see from a distance that Tianpeng was talking to Tianfu on the attic of the flagship in the middle of Tianhe Navy. "Are these guys doing this to themselves?" he thought.

"How about we launch an attack directly?" Short Mouth said.

Looking at the three military formations at the vanguard of the Tianhe navy, the monkey said: "The sprint distance is ten miles. In addition to the buffer zone of five miles, the opponent can advance to support, retreat or defend. If we attack now, even if we win, they will be able to defeat them all." And retreat."

As he spoke, he raised his head and glanced at the few warships deployed sporadically above the military formation, surrounded by heavenly soldiers, and said: "Those above are obviously wary of us using 'thunderbolts'. The defense is so tight, let's take a look before talking about it."

After a while, seeing that there was no movement from the demon army except for ridicule, the river army shouted out the previous words again that day.

This time only the three military formations in front were left shouting. As a result, the demon army didn't even bother to smile.

The confrontation lasted for an hour, and the shouts were repeated several times mechanically. Not to mention the demon army in Huaguo Mountain, even the Tianhe navy itself and even the Nantianmen fleet watching the battle from a distance were a little impatient.

"Since when has the battle between the Heshu Army and the Navy been so funny today? I thought they would launch a surprise attack as soon as they entered the battle, so I got up early to watch the show. It was disappointing." Nezha lay on the side of the boat and sighed listlessly.

"Perhaps they have some deeper plan?" King Dhritarashtra said.

"Will it happen? I've patrolled back and forth several times. If there are no surprise soldiers, all the troops will be there. Can the pig-headed hood still produce a flower?"

"I don't know." King Chiguo took a deep breath and said: "Third Prince, the Tianhe navy is here today. Do you think we should talk to Huaguoshan in detail about the release of the king? If this continues, I'm afraid something might change in the end."

…

At this time, the canopy is in the room below the attic. Several generals were busy going back and forth.

Not long after, a general came to Tianpeng's side.

"Marshal, we have already checked the general situation."

"explain."

"The black iron ball-shaped magic weapon was still on hand through remote observation, but we didn't see many. Of course, it may be hidden. In addition, we discovered some things that we were not aware of before."

After a slight pause, he pulled away the bamboo slips in his hands that day and said: "On the Heavenly Army battleship captured by the other party, we saw some cylindrical metal black objects. These objects should not be there according to the original configuration of the battleship. We can be sure. It was installed after it was captured. The mouth faces outward and is about five feet long. It is movable and black. The bottom is thick and should be some kind of magic weapon. And there are some wooden boxes next to this kind of magic weapon. It should be related to this magic weapon. There is some connection with the device.”

"What else?" Tianpeng asked.

"In the six military formations of the opponent on the front line, we saw some demon soldiers carrying long strips of objects wrapped in linen on their backs. It is unclear what they were, but it is speculated that they may also be some kind of magic weapon. Considering that the opponent will have this on their backs, The demon soldiers and archers who planted long objects were arranged in a staggered line, and sword soldiers and spear soldiers were deployed next to them. The object wrapped in linen is probably a long-range attack weapon."

"Apart from this, are there any other discoveries?"

"The other thing is that the other side's main warship has ramming horns installed, while part of the wooden warship has ramming horns installed and some don't... Well, this may be because they didn't have time to install it. But it may also be because the other side has a different positioning of the warship itself. . The wooden warships without collision angles were concentrated at four points on the second level of the battle formation. Apart from this, no other abnormalities have been found for the time being."

Canopy nodded slightly and said: "Go down first, continue to observe, and report back immediately if you find any new discoveries."

"promise!"

After the day was about to leave, Tianfu sighed softly: "It seems that they are not going to take the initiative today. In this way, we will not be able to take the opportunity to collect further intelligence. But why did we attack Tianren last time? Why are you so proactive?"

"This monster monkey is very cunning. I guess he is worried that I have some back-ups." Tianpeng said: "In any case, we can at least be sure now that he has a lot of back-ups."

…

At this time, the monkey was doing similar things on the battleship.

"The three military formations in front should all be of the Way of the Walker, and their spiritual power is higher than the others." Monkey said while operating the soul-finding board of Master Yuding: "All the military formations on the second floor are It's the Way of Enlightenment, and the following ones are staggered and mixed... It seems that they are working hard to target us. But why didn't we see shield soldiers this time? There was a defensive formation, but there were no shield soldiers. What's going on? ?”
