Xu Le and the Xue brothers eventually went down the mountain with the Wagang Army.

However, the relationship between the two parties did not become a family just because they acted together, and they still maintained a distance that could not be seen but could clearly feel each other.

The reason for this situation cannot be simply attributed to Xu Le's measurement or Xu Shiji's inability to adapt to the situation, but rather the most critical issue that determines the relationship between the two parties, but is not within the control of both parties.

So much contact or commitment between the two parties now makes no sense.

Both sides are open-minded and understand each other's thoughts, so they can't act here for each other to show them, so they just go straight.

Before clarifying Li Yan's safety, no one makes a meaningless promise.

Where the two will eventually go depends entirely on whether they can successfully save people.

Until then, everyone was not enemies, but they were not friends.

Wagang owes Xu Le a favor, so he puts his attitude even lower.

Xu Le and the Xue brothers were arranged in the middle of the team.

In front is the scout to investigate the news, and behind is the vanguard troops who are responsible for the alert tasks and are ready to take on the battle at any time.

Behind are the palace troops, guarding against enemies coming from behind.

If it was the heyday of the Wagang Army, this lineup would be more comprehensive.

Not only are there arrangements in front and back, but there is also a general leading the way on both the left and right wings.

No matter which side there are ambushes, they can respond in time.

Although he did not see it with his own eyes, Xu Le could only imagine how glorious the Wagang Army was from this formation.

Four of the Five Tiger Generals were separated, and one of them was in charge of the trusted guard Xu Shiji.

The commander gave orders, and he was able to advance and retreat without any hesitation. Even if there were thousands of troops, he could not trap such a powerful force full of thorns.

It is like a sharp weapon with sharp edges on all sides. No matter which direction it cuts, it can break out of a bloody path.

Anyone who faces such a team will have a headache. Apart from head-on, there is no better way to deal with it.

But now the situation is different.

The sudden change broke the two wings of Wagang, causing the left and right wings of the military formation to lose their arrows and backbone.

It changed from an iron card with blades on all sides to a sharp shuttle mark with sharp front and back.

Even Xu Shiji was in front and commanded the front army with Qin Shubao. Luo Shixin was in charge of the hall, so he could tell what kind of embarrassment he was in in human power.

The more glorious the past, the more you can feel the embarrassment at this time.

Even the bystander could not help but sigh, so there was no need to say much about what the person involved should think.

Xu Le watched coldly and could see that the biggest problem of this army was not the current dilemma, but what to do in the future.

They have already broken up with Li Mi, and I don’t know what their attitude is. Even if they leave here, where can they go?

Who should I go to join?

A elite soldier who should have dominated the world has now become a lonely ghost. Who should I blame?

Cheng Yaojin and Shan Xiongxin were seriously injured. Although they were not fatal, they had already lost their combat ability.

People have entered a coma and will definitely not be able to act on their own strength.

From this point of view, Xu Le admired the Wagang Army very much.

Compared with other Green Forest people, they are indeed considered righteous.

Not only did he not abandon his comrades, but he also made arrangements very appropriate.

The wounds on the two men were treated and placed on a simple bed made of wooden boards, shoulder poles and ropes, and carried them together by the minions.

If you are an ordinary person, just riding a horse down the mountain and hiking into the woods is enough. Where can you still bring people?

But these people are worthy of being accustomed to Green Forest, and their methods are not something ordinary people can imagine.

As soon as the two of them lifted the door panel over their heads, they could lift it smoothly and not suffer from bumps.

If you encounter obstacles from branches, you can move up and down in time to avoid it, and you will not fall down or get injured due to secondary bumps.

More importantly, these simple beds were not made temporarily, but had been placed in the military camp for a long time.

Some of them were destroyed by the rebellion fire just now, but a few of them flowed down, just for Cheng and Dan to use them.

Just from this arrangement, we can see Xu Shiji's carefulness, planning for danger in times of peace, and indeed possessing the qualities that a coach should have.

However, sometimes, the outcome of a war is not simply determined by the coach's ability.

All kinds of factors that are not controlled by the head coach may have an impact on the result. Even the head coach who holds the power of life and death is helpless.

Just like this failure, it was not Xu Shiji's responsibility.

His arrangements were fine from beginning to end, but he didn't expect that his own people would betray him. Li Mi took action without any mercy and ended up like this.

For Xu Le, the most important thing is to save Li Yan, and Xu Shiji also showed a positive attitude and was willing to help.

But now everyone’s purpose is to come out, not to save people.

This is not to say that you can’t get the word, but to look for it without any direction and has no practical significance.

From returning to the Wagang Army gathered down the mountain, the time spent in the middle was destined to be unable to catch up with each other.

And with the fireworks on the top of the mountain, you can imagine what the area will be in chaos in the future.

In this chaos, self-protection is a problem, let alone finding someone.

And even if you find it, it is still unclear whether to save or harm people.

Xu Le's purpose was to save a lively Li Yan, rather than bringing a dead person home.

Therefore, at the moment, I had to leave here first and return to Xuanjia Military Village, and then raise troops to rescue Li Yan.

Fortunately, the final goal has been fixed. Li Mi took away the person, so I asked him for someone! However, it is not that easy to return to the station.

Xu Le had some enlightenment before coming here and knew that since this place was Li Jiancheng's sphere of influence, it was not a good place to go.

Although we are nominally under the leadership of the Tang Dynasty, it should be our greatest help, but in fact its threat is greater than that of Wagang Village.

Besides, there are too many things involved in this, so he cannot hear the news.

Not to mention anything else, it is a big deal to save Jiu Niang by yourself.

The chief general of the first army left the troops and defense ground without orders. If the military law is carefully studied, he could kill people.

No matter what reason it is to save people, they cannot escape military legal sanctions.

Therefore, when Xu Le came, he was very careful and avoided Li Jiancheng's sentry and was more attentive to prevent him than to prevent Wagang Village.

But with the internal strife just now, my caution was useless.

Li Jiancheng's soldiers would be surrounded by him at some point. If they really fell into their hands, it would be even more troublesome.

So not only Xu Shiji wants to run, but also himself. In this regard, he and the Wagang Army are in the same camp.

The brothers of the Xue family didn't have to escape, but not to mention the four people who met Xu Le, they only talked about Li Jiancheng's actions and character, and these four people couldn't believe it from the bottom of their hearts.

It may not be a good thing to really join him. He may also need his own head if he moves out of military laws and regulations.

So now everyone is on the same boat, and the enemies they face are still the same.

These people have extraordinary six senses and rich experience in the battlefield. They naturally have some sense of the crisis that Chen Zhiluo can feel.

Xu Le frowned slightly, and found that the expressions of the four brothers of the Xue family were also very serious. Needless to say, everyone's thoughts were the same: this place was a bit too quiet! Xu Le was about to speak when he saw Xu Shiji suddenly raised his hand and made a gesture. With a few whistles like birds, the soldiers completed a formation transformation in front of Xu Le.

The previous military formation was a formation that took into account all sides, and could respond no matter when attacked from any direction.

As the formation changes are completed, the entire army formation becomes a cone shape, and the tip of the awl is the forward. From the vanguard to the back, the queue gradually widens, and the distance between the cavalry and the cavalry is widened until the end of the bottom.

As the formation changes are completed, the speed of the march has also changed! Now everyone is escaping, not fighting between the two armies. In addition, after the position is exposed, they may encounter more than ten times more enemies at any time.

Therefore, the scouts that Wagang relies on for pride have lost their effect. It is impossible to send a small group of scouts in front of them to explore military information and then report the situation to the commander of the rear army.

If he really did this, everything would be delayed. Even if Li Jiancheng walked over, he would have time to block Xu Shiji and his group.

At this time, what you want is fast or stability, but a little luck.

Bet that my luck is not that bad, and I won’t really encounter Tang Jun.

However, Xu Shiji used his troops steadily, and even in this case, he made the arrangements as stably as possible, using the Wagang conventional cavalry formation.

This formation requires synchronization between each other to ensure that the military formations are not dispersed and can respond in time.

Although there are no real scouts, the cavalry in all directions have corresponding reconnaissance responsibilities, and each focuses on himself and is responsible for the area.

This will make the safety more secure and the speed will naturally decrease.

And now this formation is a pure road formation.

All the elites were concentrated at the tip of the cone, and even Luo Shixin was transferred from the rear army to the front army.

The soldiers in the back row don’t have to worry about anything, just follow the front row, you don’t need to be alert or care about the steps of other friendly forces. Just control your mount and don’t fall behind.

The entire army changed from being alert to rushing to being focused on the road, and its speed naturally increased a lot.

At the cost, the protection of this military formation is naturally much worse than before.
