Chapter 1090
The armies of both sides intertwined together. Penilence frowned and looked at every place, but he was depressed to find that the young man on the other side was really different.
Although he was young, his experience in commanding the defense meant that he didn't have any chance to attack.
It was like a mountain was standing in front of him, and his ordinary methods could not achieve any effective results.
He tried to induce the other side several times, but the other side remained completely unmoved. The entire army was filled with calmness and reliability.
On the contrary, as Iron Pagoda led his troops forward, the huge flaw formed by the natural retreat of the soldiers at the junction of the Roman vanguard and center was seized by the truly experienced elite troops of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, this flaw was left by Penilence himself, but when Yue Fei did not make any mistakes in other places, this flaw he left himself actually became a flaw.
Originally, Penilence just wanted to use this flaw as a trap to induce Yue Fei to change his overall style, and then during the change, he would follow Yue Fei's loopholes and rely on the burst of the command line to directly beat Yue Fei to death.
But Yue Fei was unexpectedly invulnerable, and the carefully laid trap now turned into a trap that bound him, which gave Penilence a headache.
Especially the captain of the Iron Pagoda, after seeing an obvious flaw, he led the Iron Pagoda to rush towards the flaw without hesitation.
This judgment is very accurate, but sometimes the accuracy in front of us is not the real accuracy.
The Iron Pagoda's centurion successfully seized the opportunity, combined with the cavalry's own agility and the Iron Pagoda's own powerful charging ability.
Theoretically speaking, by rushing into Rome's weak spot, they should be able to break through the enemy as easily as other cavalry, and then lead the main force in and defeat Rome easily.
Unfortunately, he was facing the Romans led by Peniles, especially when Yue Fei took the initiative to choose to use the Iron Pagoda as bait.
They were unaware of the coming crisis and were instead immersed in the excitement of the upcoming killing.
Theories are usually for other people to see. Those generals who truly reign at the top of their times usually treat these theories as balls to be kicked around.
Although Penelence is not a god of war, he is also the commander of a large army that stands at one of the pinnacles of the world.
The Iron Pagoda's light attack and reckless advance did indeed directly penetrate the Roman formation, but it was completely different from what they had imagined.
"Even so, can you still keep your composure?" Penilence sighed helplessly as he looked at the Iron Pagoda that was about to rush to the center of the army, and Yue Fei who was still maintaining a defense as solid as a rock.
He would rather create a flaw himself and increase Roman casualties in order to lure Yue Fei into an attack, but Yue Fei was completely unmoved, as if he had fully seen through his plan.
In this contest of patience, he was ultimately defeated. If he had not taken action, the Iron Pagoda would have pierced through the Roman army, which would have been a heavy blow to Roman morale.
Moreover, once it is pierced, the flow of cloud gas will be cut off, which will cause irreparable disadvantages, so this is his bottom line.
"Change the formation!" Penilence sighed, and then started to attack directly.
The Roman army began to move violently, and was constantly changing, that is, jumping from stability to change.
The Roman spearmen and heavy infantry who had originally retreated into the center of the army were placed in front of the Iron Pagoda without doing anything during this formation reversal, which directly interrupted the Iron Pagoda's charge rhythm and reduced its marching speed by as much as 80%.
Although the Iron Pagoda was still advancing, it was a world of difference compared to its previous unstoppable momentum.
The drastic changes in the military formation caused the Iron Pagoda to encounter a force several times larger than its own in a very short period of time.
What's worse, the gap they had opened was directly closed , and they lost connection with the main force of the Han Dynasty and were completely surrounded by the Roman legions.
Helani, the captain of the Iron Pagoda, could not understand why he, who had clearly gained the upper hand and had followed the tactics of attacking through the flaws, not only did not gain any benefit but also suffered heavy losses.
The fact that he could become the captain of a thousand men in the Iron Pagoda and was not even replaced by Yue Fei showed that his ability was obvious.
Even in the Han Dynasty, he was a very outstanding middle-level military officer.
But when facing Penilence, his thoughts were like a blank piece of paper, on which Penilence could write anything he wanted.
Fortunately, Helani's rush in was not meaningless. At least he forced Penilence to start changing first, which was a very familiar process for Yue Fei.
So Yue Fei naturally began to change the formation, and then tore open a gap from other directions and began to support the Iron Pagoda.
Although he would rather sacrifice Tiefutu's life, that was just willingness, which did not mean that Tiefutu could be abandoned at will. What's more, only by continuing to make a fuss about Tiefutu could Penilence make further mistakes.
At the same time, with the arrival of the last team, the Han army led by Yue Fei had once again incorporated the Iron Pagoda into its system.
The subsequent drastic changes in the clouds made all the Iron Pagoda soldiers feel great changes in all aspects of their physical fitness.
"Kill!" Helani was shocked. Although he didn't know what happened just now, it was obvious that Yue Fei was trying to save them.
Penilence’s methods may be very clever, but in the hearts of the Iron Pagoda soldiers, Yue Fei is the god.
"Invasion is like fire!"
Yue Fei changed the Four Elephants Army Formation from being extremely static to extremely dynamic. The army, which had been as still as a mountain and had no flaws at all, instantly began to charge forward with a surging momentum like a landslide.
This is also Yue Fei’s understanding of the Four Symbols, the transformation of the mountain into fire, using the momentum of the landslide to ignite a raging fire.
In just a moment, the front of the Roman army was struck by thunder and lightning, and a large area was instantly dented. The elite troops of the Han army followed up with the Iron Pagoda and once again began to try to break through the Roman army.
“That’s amazing!”
Looking at Yue Fei, who was not at any disadvantage when attacking, Penilence put away the last trace of contempt in his heart. He no longer regarded Yue Fei as a young man, but treated Yue Fei as a mortal enemy.
"But it's precisely because you're so strong that it makes more sense to defeat you directly!"
Penilence narrowed his eyes. Since Yue Fei had no flaws caused by his mistakes, he would create one himself.
He mobilized the Paladin Corps and the Fanatic Corps to the front to curb the momentum of the Iron Pagoda, and then used the three Angel Corps like three nails to nail the front battlefield.
Even Yue Fei remained silent when he saw it. His command was futile at such a time and he could only watch the two sides fighting each other.
Because of Penilence's move, the Han Dynasty had the advantage, but it just took a lot of time. However, any rash action would turn this advantage into a disadvantage.
Yue Fei became more and more cautious. He did not believe that Penilence's move was a stupid one due to his old age and stupidity. He preferred to believe that this was the price Penilence had to pay in order to gain a more terrifying advantage.
"Yue Fei, let me teach you a trick. Unless you are sure of victory, don't think that you can wipe out your opponent with one killer move!" Penilence shouted loudly with the arrogance of a senior.
He was still trying to provoke Yue Fei, and he took actual action.
Following a roar from Penilence, the hundreds of command lines that were originally squeezed on both sides of the front changed instantly, and the intensity of the assault and breaking the formation suddenly increased by nearly two times.
The outer battle line that Yue Fei arranged on both sides to block the enemy's charge collapsed directly.
"Penelus, let me teach you a trick. Don't have too much confidence in your trump card before you are sure of victory!" Yue Fei sneered and also took over the ninety command lines on both sides.
There are still some problems with his command foundation, which cannot be solved in the fantasy world of the God of War. Only war in reality can make him improve quickly, otherwise he can only improve through hard work.
This is also one of the reasons why Yue Fei served as the commander-in-chief this time. Huangfu Song may be stronger than Yue Fei now, but Huangfu Song has no room for improvement.
However, facing the long-term pressure of Han Xin's more than 300 command lines allowed him to completely hold off Penilence even with less force.
Moreover, in the process of holding back Penilence, Yue Fei's basic command was rapidly improving. Only pressure could bring more powerful driving force for progress.
"Then I'll be your whetstone!" Penilence was shocked and angry, but finally he just laughed out of anger.
He had figured out Yue Fei's background. He was young, cautious, and had great potential. However, he was still one step behind him. He was still stronger.
However, when defending, the Han Dynasty seemed to have a military god, which made the opponent's defense flawless, and many of his offensive inducements were resolved by the opponent.
But when Yue Fei started to attack, his level dropped drastically, revealing many not-so-big flaws, which allowed him to begin to suppress Yue Fei.
But Yue Fei has actually started to improve now, which means that the opponent is fighting in such a formal battle with the attitude of improving himself.
A huge stone fell from Penilence's political heart, and he was actually a little afraid of fighting a life-and-death battle with the Han Dynasty.
The best situation is when both parties are taken into consideration.
However, his military dignity instantly began to anger. He could compromise, but on the battlefield, he would never allow others to use him as a stepping stone.
He was the vice-emperor of the Roman Empire, he was Penelunus, he was the pillar of Rome, how could he lose to such an opponent.
"I want to see if you can bear the pain of failure. I hope you won't collapse like this!"
Penilence decided to take strong measures to kill Yue Fei. Compromise is compromise, but some things cannot be compromised.
Penilence directly dispatched a legion of angels to escape from the melee, and then went down to the battlefield himself, leading the legion of angels straight towards Yue Fei.
If military tactics and strategies cannot defeat you, then I will add military forms.
Although there are various auxiliary means, there is one law of command that will not change, that is, the closer you are to the soldiers you command, the more your command ability will be improved.
Penilence led the Angel Legion directly to the front line. The original one hundred command lines dropped to more than fifty in an instant, but the power exerted and the speed of issuing command orders became faster.
The pressure we face head-on has not only not decreased, but has increased instead.
"Military situation?" Yue Fei also sneered, then rushed towards Penilence with his personal guards.
He didn't expect that Penilence's trump card would be this, but it just so happened that this was what he learned from Han Xin, and it was also what he was best at.
It was precisely for this reason that Jin Wushu fell so suddenly into his hands.
Who is Han Xin's biggest opponent? Of course it is Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu plays with the military situation. Han Xin's own military situation is slightly worse, but his ability to crack it is absolutely top-notch!
After all, King Xiang was almost the greatest military commander in history, and Han Xin's ultimate target was this guy. Without King Xiang's strength, if the military commander faced Han Xin, he would probably kill one for every one he encountered, or kill two for every two, without even taking a breath.
This is what Yue Fei mainly learned from Han Xin, focusing on defense and counterattack, as well as the integration of military strategy and military situation.
At this moment, Penilence happened to be in the area where he was best at.
In fact, Yue Fei also understood at this moment that there was still a gap between him and Penilence. His watertight defense was completely a muscle memory developed by the beatings from Han Xin, Bai Qi and others. Sometimes, before he could think clearly, the order had already been delivered just right.
If Penilence could increase the pressure on the command line a little bit more and force Yue Fei from the offensive to the defensive, he would find that Yue Fei would not have any problems on the defensive end.
Even if he increased the pressure to two hundred lines, it would be of no avail, because Yue Fei could maintain defense for a quarter of an hour under Han Xin's three hundred command lines.
But Penilence didn't know all this at the moment. He just wanted to smash Yue Fei's head.
"Young man, let me give you the last one. A senior is still a senior after all. Just go back and practice!" Penilence mocked Yue Fei not far away.
Normally, no commander of a large army would appear in such a close position. This is not bravery but stupidity.
But both Penilence and Yue Fei were already excited at this moment. Both sides completely abandoned their concerns and devoted themselves to how to win.
When the difference between the two sides is huge, you can consider holding back.
However, Penilence did not dare to be careless now. Although he felt that he was a little stronger than Yue Fei, it was not a hundred million points, but a real point.
If you don't take it seriously, you might really be used as a stepping stone by Yue Fei.
Penilence had reason to believe that if he lost to Yue Fei today, the next time the two met, Yue Fei would trample on him and beat him.
No matter what he said today, he was determined to give Yue Fei a setback and make Yue Fei depressed for a while. This young opponent was really too scary.
