Chapter 262 Eight Formations

He also received a recruitment order for Liangzhou regardless of rank.

But what is the recruitment order for special craftsmen?
After defending Chencang, Li Qian received three recruitment orders, one third-rate recruitment order, one Liangzhou recruitment order, and one special craftsman recruitment order.

The system compensated Li Qian for half of the troops he lost in the Battle of Chencang, allowing Li Qian to recover. The total loss in Chencang City was only more than 2,000 people.

The system also rewarded 3,000 generals, 200 each of the Tang Dynasty's Modao Army, White Robe Army, and Black Armor Army, totaling 800 special troops.

Calculated this way, Li Qian's losses would be even less.

"Ding, your general Wen Tianxiang has been upgraded to level 70, and his ability in the [Raising an Army to Revolt against the Yuan Dynasty] stage has been unlocked."

"Ding, your general Wei Rui has been upgraded to level 80, and the [Holding the Feast] stage ability has been unlocked."

"Ding, your general Ma Long has been upgraded to level 85, and the [Eight Formation Formation] stage ability has been unlocked."

Li Qian was excited when he saw the improved abilities of the three civil and military officials.

Wei Rui, a military general of the Southern Dynasty, was known as "Wei Hu". He was a first-class commander second only to top-notch commanders like Li Jing. He was left behind in the Tang capital by Li Qian.

Wei Rui's abilities have improved and he is now more capable of taking charge, which is exactly what Li Qian wanted.

The improvement in the abilities of Wen Tianxiang and Ma Long will also be of great help in enhancing the overall strength of Li Qian's forces.

Li Qian checked the changes of these three civil officials and military generals.

[Story]: The Yuan army marched south to attack the Song Dynasty. Wen Tianxiang spent all his wealth to recruit soldiers to defend the country. He fought again and again despite repeated defeats, and never gave up. The [Loyal Heart] stage ability can be unlocked at level 90.

……

Wen Tianxiang has three more traits: "Righteous Soldiers", "Righteous Flags", and "Unyielding Will", all of which are relatively practical character traits that can be used to recruit soldiers and boost morale.

Wen Tianxiang’s charm value has reached 97. I wonder if Wen Tianxiang’s final charm value can reach 100?

Li Qian then checked the character panel of Ma Long, a famous general of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Malone finally unlocked the god-level feature "Eight Formations"!

[Story]: At level 100, you can unlock the [Feng Hou's Grip on the Secret Sutra] stage ability.

……

Li Qian was somewhat shocked when he saw the effect of Ma Long's god-level characteristic "Eight Formations".

The Eight Diagrams can increase the defense of the chariot formation by up to 70%, and can also reduce the damage suffered by soldiers in the formation. With the two effects combined, Malone's side chariot formation is like a slowly moving fortress.

Even if the enemy's strength is several times that of Ma Long, they may not be able to defeat Ma Long's chariot formation.

However, Ma Long's "Eight Formations" does not seem to be completely consistent with Zhuge Liang's character traits. His Eight Formations can only be used on the side chariot formation.

The chariot formation was a formation used in specific situations in ancient times.

The chariot formation has amazing defensive power, which is equivalent to temporarily building a "city" on flat ground with connected chariots as walls, and it is especially effective in restraining cavalry.

However, the chariot formation lacks mobility, which is almost equivalent to drawing a circle on the ground to make a prison, with more defense than offense.

Of course, Li Qian would not let the chariot formation attack. He had enough elite cavalry. Ma Long only needed to use the chariot formation to hold out and resist the enemy in certain circumstances. As for the attack, it was left to Li Qian's Black Armor Army.

Ma Long obtains the god-level characteristic "Eight Formations (Partial Chariot Formation)", which can provide shelter for Li Qian's cavalry on the plains, consume the enemy troops, and then Li Qian's cavalry can launch a large-scale attack.

Li Qian looked at Ma Long's characteristic effects and had a bold idea.

If he can make full use of Ma Long's characteristic effects, Li Qian can use more tactics.

A side-compartment vehicle array requires the construction of a special side-compartment vehicle.

In addition, if ordinary horse-drawn carriages are used, the formation can be formed, but the effect will be greatly reduced.

Li Qian's territory was in Nanyang County, and Chen Cang was in Fufeng County. It was too late to build a side-carriage in Xinye County at this time.

Li Qian found the commander of Chencang and asked him to build a batch of side-carriage carriages in Chencang City.

The Chencang defender agreed.

As long as Li Qian provides enough gold and silver, he can use the workshop in Chencang City to build a side-carriage.

Li Qian was not in a hurry to send troops to Liang Province for the time being. He was still watching the situation of Huangfu Song, Sun Jian, and Dong Zhuo in their campaign against the rebels in Liang Province.

Li Qian ordered 500 side vans at one time.

If it can reduce losses in battle, then spending these silver coins is worth it.

Finally, Li Qian checked Wei Rui's character attributes.

"Commander-in-Chief 97..."

Li Qian was stunned when he saw that Wei Rui's command value became 97, the same as Li Jing's current value.
