Qin Yu was shocked when he heard this, and said, "This ...... I don't know King Song very well!"

Chongzhen frowned and said, "The prime minister is unwilling?"

Qin Yu was now full of bitterness, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "The minister's order." With that, he retreated.

Chongzhen and Hengshan looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, a herald hurriedly ran up to the main hall and said on the ground: "Tell the emperor that the border desert campaign has begun, and Marshal Mo sent someone to send the 'Order Arrow Book' to ask the emperor to take a look." ”

His Royal Highness's eunuch immediately went to take the 'Book of Arrows', examined it for a while, and then handed it to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen took the 'Lingjian Book' and looked at it, his brows were twisted, and he was furious in his heart: "Hmph! This Mo is stunned, and he asked me for the army, do you really think that I can't cure you?" and then said to the ministers below: "Military salaries are needed to fight in the border wilderness, I don't know what the people think of the Qing family?"

Hearing the emperor's question, the upper hall suddenly became lively......

In the jade study, Chongzhen kept walking back and forth in the room, and his heart was irritable, and Taifu Hengshan stood aside with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was recuperating his mind.

Chongzhen said angrily: "The border has been fighting for many years......

Battle, I don't know how much food and salary the court has been missing, and now they still have the face to ask me for military salaries, why don't they apologize for their crimes with death, do they still want me to stick to them, this group of people is really against the sky!"

Heng Shan said: "The emperor actually knows that the border wilderness cannot be defended, and the military salary cannot be ignored, so why should he be angry now?"

Chongzhen said: "Of course I know the current situation, but the border has been in the wilderness for many years, and the treasury has long been overwhelmed. At present, there are many disasters and famines in various places, and there are rebels and thieves making trouble, and many people in the DPRK and China are colluding together. With so much chaos, how can I calm the fire in my heart. He relieved his breath and said: "Although I am not a British monarch, I am also thinking about the common people in the world, but I am just ......" The words choked up when they came to their mouths, and they just sighed heavily.

"Why does the Emperor sigh?" a gentle voice came from outside the door.

Chongzhen's words perked up and hurriedly greeted him.

Outside the study, an old road fell from the sky and slowly fell, like a fairy.

This man was wearing a fiery red gown, and even his head and eyebrows were all red, as if he were in a fire.

"National teacher, you are finally out of the customs. It's so good!" Chongzhen was overjoyed when he saw someone coming.

Heng Shan also said respectfully: "National Teacher!"

The national teacher bowed and said, "The emperor and the master are polite, let's go in and talk about it!"

Chongzhen's heart was relieved, and he said with a smile: "National teacher, please!" After speaking, he led the way in.

……

In the study, Chongzhen described the current situation and said, "I don't know what the national teacher's opinion is?"

The national teacher nodded and said, "Now the country is suffering from internal and external troubles and famines, and it is indeed chaotic. However, it has not damaged the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, although we will not participate in mundane things, but we will definitely come forward at a critical time, and the emperor only needs to govern the world well. ”

Chongzhen naturally knew the ability of the national teacher, and the forces behind the national teacher reassured him, so he was no longer worried now. He smiled lightly and said, "I will definitely create my Ming Dynasty again." The tone was full of pride, full of confidence in the future.

In the border wilderness, in the Ming military camp, Mo Zheng and a middle-aged scholar were playing against each other. At this time, the soldier interrupted outside the camp tent and said: "Commander, the emperor has replied, and the military salary will be delivered immediately, hoping that the commander can return triumphantly." ”

Hearing this, Mo was stunned and smiled outside the tent: "Okay, you go down first." Then he put a black spot in his hand on the chessboard and said to the middle-aged scholar: "Sir, it seems that I want to win this game." ”

The middle-aged scholar didn't care, and said with a smile: "The coach won this game, but the coach should not forget the overall situation of the world." ”

Mo Zheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Mr. is right, the emperor's power is not as simple as imagined, and the people in the worship court have not yet surfaced, it seems that the overall situation of the world is difficult to determine." ”

The middle-aged scholar nodded slightly......

Kitayama Castle is small and can only be compared to ordinary towns, it is located in the middle of the border wilderness, and it is controlled by three major forces. Because of its concave terrain, it is rarely attacked by wind and sand, but such a small town is full of endless streams of people and caravans, and over time, it has become the calmest and most fruitful place in the border wilderness.

Castle ......

The hall of the only inn was now crowded with people, who were not eating or resting, but discussing the war in the wilderness.

In the other hut, there are three people with great backgrounds, they are the three tyrants of the border wilderness, Luo Wang Chu Fei, Sand King Ren Xiangjun, and Wind King Shan Yun.

In the tent of the "Death Battalion", Zhou Bo was sitting upright on the ground, constricting his mind and communicating with the spiritual power in the sea of consciousness, although he couldn't completely control it, he felt very cordial, like a part of his body. After making sure that there was no danger, Zhou Bo let go of his attention to his mental power and devoted himself to the cultivation of his body.

I have to say that the magic of the vitality of life, when Zhou Bo looked at it just now, the qi of the seven emotions in his body was still so weak and slow, but after only a while, the color of the seven emotions in his body became much thicker......

Foreign kung fu is a long process, Li Yun practiced such miraculous skills as "Dragon Pole Nine Changes", after more than ten years of life and death tempering on the battlefield, but only reached the realm of practicing Mahayana, it is conceivable that practicing this kind of kung fu is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear. It takes not only a lot of time and energy, but also a lot of perseverance and determination.

However, it is almost impossible to reach the peak of martial arts through practice and kung fu, at least there has been no such person in the martial arts, so you must have the courage to face failure.

People are often afraid to move forward in the face of the unknown, so they are accustomed to following the footsteps of their predecessors, and few people can jump out of this shackle. Zhou Bo has not been afraid of the unknown future, nor has he not felt fear, but his unyielding character gives him the courage to dare to challenge the unknown.

Although physical training is a long and arduous process, and there is no direction and cannot be followed, Zhou Bo feels that the unknown represents infinite possibilities, so he is full of hope for the future. This is not only because of his strange physique and ability, but more importantly, he has always believed that as long as he pays, he will definitely gain. Sometimes, a small belief in the heart can bring infinite power to people.

Zhou Bo breathed in the elegant and thin breath in the air, and felt a burst of satisfaction in his heart. He called this breath the vitality of heaven and earth, because so far he didn't know why he absorbed such a breath when he exhaled, only that this breath could not only make himself refreshed, but also be absorbed by the qi of the seven emotions, which was really mysterious.

After the vitality entered Zhou Bo's body, part of it spread to the surroundings, and the other part was absorbed by the qi of the seven emotions, and then repaired the injured meridians through the qi of the seven emotions and tempered his own **......

An hour has passed, and Zhou Bo's physical strength has now recovered, but the seven emotions in his body are only half of what they used to be, and the degree of recovery is not as fast as just now, it seems that it can not be recovered in a moment and a half, and he can't help but feel a little deflated in his heart.

Zhou Bo knew that there were some things that could not be rushed, so he let go of the anxiety in his heart, got up and walked outside the tent. But as soon as he walked out of the tent, he saw Dongyu and the three of them walking towards this side.

"Hehe, it's great that we're all alive!" Xu Jie rushed forward and gave Zhou Bo a bear hug.

Zhou Bo's heart warmed, and he said softly: "It's not easy to live, but we will definitely get out alive!"

Dongyu stepped forward and said, "What Zhou Bo said is right, we will definitely be able to get out alive." We still have a lot of work to do. There was an unquestionable firmness in his tone.

Xu Jie......

He Huang Zhenfeng also nodded heavily.

"Haha......" The four of them looked at each other and smiled......

…… A month has passed, the battlefield is still a battlefield, the killing is still a killing, and perhaps only the dead people and time have changed. Zhou Bo had long been accustomed to this life of blood and fire, but he did not feel numb by the endless killing, on the contrary, when he saw the corpses on the ground, he understood the fragility of life more in his heart, and at the same time cherished it more.

There are still more than 3,000 people left in the "death battalion", and although they rush to the forefront of the battlefield every time they fight, they have not decreased as sharply as they did at the beginning, after all, the prisoners inside are all people who have been killed for a long time, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they are much stronger than ordinary regular troops. Moreover, hundreds of death row inmates are added every once in a while, so that the combat effectiveness of the "death battalion" is still very strong.

Zhou Bo has already controlled his strength to the point of doing whatever he wants in the baptism of war, although the physical exertion on the battlefield is still very large, but he can at least save his life.

In order to create a set of knife techniques that can be used on the battlefield, Zhou Bo decided to start the second step of the plan, which is to achieve overall coordination, including the coordination of pace, body style, movement and strength.

The combination of pace and body technique has already enabled Zhou Bo to move freely and easily on the battlefield, which is not inferior to Dongyu's dexterous body style. But if he wants to fight back in dodge like Dongyu and defeat the enemy with one move, it requires not only reactions, but also correct judgment and the ability to control his body, and he is still far from these aspects.

Degree and strength have always been Zhou Bo's strengths, and due to his habits for many years, the attack method has long been finalized. If he won by a single degree or strength, maybe he would not be so embarrassed, but the combination of degree and strength of the attack, after many attempts, he was miserable.

Some habits are difficult to break once they are formed, and if you want to break them, the price you pay is often much more than the cost of forming a habit. In the face of so many enemies, Zhou Bo's pressure doubled, and his physical strength was also greatly challenged.

With the increase of combat experience and the proficiency of his movements, Zhou Bo has basically adapted to this way of fighting, but the price he paid is full of scars.

……

Two months have passed, and the battle on the battlefield is not as fierce as it was at the beginning. Zhou Bo constantly dodged the enemy's attacks, like a spirit snake dancing wildly, shuttling between the enemy formations.

"Smack!" At the critical moment, the knife in his right hand suddenly broke. Looking at the countless knives and guns falling around him, Zhou Bo's mind was blank for a moment, and time seemed to stop, only to see countless knives and guns, slowly falling. On the verge of life and death, he once again burst out with amazing potential, throwing out the broken blade at a degree that was difficult to see with the naked eye, switching the knife in his left hand to his right hand, and then his body shook, and the whole person seemed to have two more arms, slashing at the enemies in all directions......

At this time, Zhou Bo's soul was blessed and he used all the actions that could be attacked. He kept waving his saber, his left hand clenched into a fist, and his feet were used together, changing his direction and wandering between the gap between the knife and the gun, and no one could stop him from moving forward.

Kill two back and forth in the middle of the enemy line,......

Zhou Bo's control of the body has become more satisfactory, and his overall coordination has become more proficient. The five actions of "chopping, splitting, turning, racking, and playing" in "Simple Knife Technique" were vividly wielded by him, as if he was born with a knife technique to kill, and every time he passed through a blood-spattered battlefield. In order to make the movements more coherent, he also added two more actions to the five actions of "chopping, splitting, turning, racking, and playing", that is, "chopping" and "dragging".

Zhou Bo kept practicing the seven actions of "chopping, splitting, turning, racking, playing, chopping, and dragging" on the battlefield, and he didn't feel that it was in line with the trajectory of the seven emotions in his body, and his moves became sharper and more proficient...... Then, in the battle, this set of knife techniques was continuously improved by Zhou Bo, and it was the most practical battlefield knife technique left in the battlefield of later generations - "Seven Styles of Knife Fighting".

Zhou Bo was extremely excited at the moment, after more than three months of hard work, a set of practical knife techniques on the battlefield was finally formed, although it was only a prototype, but its power made Zhou Bo full of confidence. There was a burst of joy in my heart, and I couldn't help but let out a long howl......

Since the strength of the opposing sides is equal, the battle situation has now tended to be balanced, and if the battle continues like this, the soldiers will only become more and more tired, and this situation is what the generals on both sides do not want to see.

Mo Zheng watched the changes on the battlefield from afar, knowing that it would not be beautiful if he continued to fight now, and was about to order the troops to be withdrawn. But the formation in front suddenly changed, and there was actually a small space in the middle, although it was a small piece, but in the dense crowd on the battlefield, it was very eye-catching. Resisting a thousand armies on your own has never been done before. Of course, if it is a congenital master, it can also do it, but the innate master never participates in the war.

Not only Mo Zheng, but Shen Tiance and the others standing on the city wall also saw this scene and immediately froze on the spot. It was the first time they had seen such a fierce knife technique, which was completely created for killing people on the battlefield, the movements were simple and direct, and there was no waste of strength, even if there were, it would be ignored.

At the same time, a bold hypothesis came to everyone's minds, "If he has enough physical strength, can he really keep killing until all the enemies on the battlefield are dead?" and there are 50,000 soldiers on the battlefield! Thinking of this, everyone felt a gloom in their hearts, and they didn't want to believe it.

At this time, a person beside Shen Tiance asked, "Tiance, who is this person, why have I never seen it before?"

Shen Tiance immediately came back to his senses when he heard this, and said respectfully: "Sha King, according to his subordinates, this person should be a pig who has not yet arrived in the 'Death Battalion' for less than a year, and last time he attracted most of the archers in our army, but I didn't expect that in addition to the 'Iron Blood', 'Spear' and 'Fast Arrow', the 'Death Battalion' now has such a number one person, it seems that this time in the death ring, we have to let the 'Wind and Sand' them appear." ”

This person is Xiang Jun, the director of Shacheng. He walked forward to the city wall, stood with his hands in his hands, and quietly watched the battlefield, the wind caressed his clothes, and there was a special momentum.

After a moment of silence, Ren Xiangjun suddenly shouted, "Bring the bow!"

"Yes!" the guard on the side quickly took out a longbow and handed it over.

……

The enemies rushed up one after another, and then one by one they fell in pools of blood. Zhou Bo's knife didn't stop, and he didn't know how many enemies he had killed, the saber in his hand was already full of gaps, if it weren't for his clever control of his strength, I'm afraid the saber would have been shattered. On the battlefield, Zhou Bo was covered in blood, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, only the snow-white head looked particularly dazzling against the red background.
