Chapter 0032 Sleepless Nights

When the last rays of light in the west disappeared into the sky, the black curtain came, and the bright moon hung above the sky, splashing soft light to the fullest, covering the blood-stained land with a veil. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the land of the Southern Barbarians, countless fires were lit, many barbarians prayed and bowed to the fire, the scorching temperature on the fire made them feel extremely warm, the cold of the night was expelled, and the barbecue that exuded fragrance made the barbarians full, and also made them temporarily forget the bloody battle during the day.

The night is getting deeper.

After one last prayer to the fire, the barbarians sat around and quickly fell asleep.

In the tent of the high priest of the Divine Fire Sect, it was as bright as day.

The withered high priest sat quietly on the futon, his thin hands resting flat on his knees, and his mouth was still reciting the scriptures, as if he was overriding the dead souls of barbarians in the daytime.

A dark shadow silently reflected on the tent.

The High Priest opened his eyes, and in his eyes, his gaze was like a knife, staring at the dark shadow.

The black shadow moved slowly, silently, and in a moment, a figure appeared in front of the high priest, wrapped in a black robe, and a cold chill emanated from all over his body.

The high priest's flat right hand was raised and made a gesture of please.

Under the black robe, a hoarse voice was heard, as if pig iron was rubbing, which made people feel particularly harsh, "Are you barbarians too incompetent, you can't even attack Shu City, and what are you talking about occupying the thirteen states of Nanban, it's really a big joke." ”

In the eyes of the high priest, a cold light suddenly appeared, and the gaze like a knife slowly swept over the black robe, and a smile appeared in his expression, and said, "The three chief envoys haven't seen you for a long time. ”

Under the black robe, a hoarse voice came out again, "Now that the battle in the western border of the Taiqian Empire is in full swing, and now you can't take care of the Southern Barbarians at all, this is the best time to capture Shu City, if you can't capture the city tomorrow, then I'm afraid you will lose this excellent opportunity." ”

The smile on the high priest's face remained unchanged, and his eyebrows moved, and he said, "How do you say this?"

The black-robed man casually walked to the futon and sat down, and said loudly: "The spies sent by Shucheng have all been killed halfway, and they can't pass on the situation in Shucheng at all, so the reinforcements from Yuezhou and Yongzhou have not arrived, but tomorrow, according to the usual practice, once the Puzhou Marshal Mansion has not received the information of Shucheng, I am afraid that he will not hesitate to send reinforcements, and when the reinforcements from Yuezhou and Yongzhou come, I am afraid that your opportunity will be completely lost, so before the reinforcements arrive, you must take Shucheng." ”

The high priest's expression became a little solemn, and he slowly rubbed his hands together, and said, "Then where is the aid you promised?"

"Hmph!" there was a chill in the black-robed man's tone, "Isn't it our credit for the riots in Shu City this time?"

The high priest shook his head slowly, his expression became very solemn, and said: "These are far from enough, do you really think that my southern barbarians are all fools? ”

The black-robed man's body was shocked, pondered for a moment, and said: "Tomorrow, we can block the reinforcements from Yuezhou and Yongzhou, but before dark, we must capture Shucheng." ”

The high priest showed a smile on his face, smiled very happily, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said: "That's natural, I'm afraid that the casualties of the old pawns of Shu City today are more than half, and tomorrow will be the day when the city will be broken." ”

The black-robed man nodded and said, "I hope so." ”

The high priest smiled, closed his eyes, and began chanting again.

The black-robed man took a few steps forward, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The high priest slowly opened his eyes, and there was a hint of a smile on his face, although it is dangerous to seek skin with the tiger, but the most important thing is who is the tiger.

Shucheng.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the lights are bright.

Gao Zhenshan sat on the top of the first place, listening carefully to the situation reported by the generals, today's battle, although the barbarians were successfully repulsed, but Shucheng also paid a heavy price, more than half of the 100,000 old soldiers in the city were seriously injured, almost all the soldiers of the patrol battalion were killed, and half of the grain and grass in the city were burned by fire, as for other losses, they were all within an acceptable range.

Gao Zhenshan leaned back in his chair with a little headache and rubbed his temples.

now

His heart became more and more bottomless, and this time the barbarian siege exposed many problems.

For example, the rebellion of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and others in the city, these people are afraid that they have been lurking in Shu City for a long time, and this barbarian has obviously been preparing for a long time to attack the city, but he is unaware.

Now Shucheng is in a situation of internal and external troubles, he has already sent ten groups of people to Puzhou Marshal's Mansion to deliver letters, but now there is no news, Gao Zhenshan can only hope for Li Qing in Puzhou, hoping that he can detect the abnormality of Shucheng.

The eight partial generals all sat at the bottom of Gao Zhen Mountain, their expressions were also very solemn, Zhang Peng's expression became pale, Suzaku's killing during the day had made him cold, and the barbarian army outside Shu City made him even more frightened, and now he only had one belief, that is, to escape from Shu City, the farther away the better, but this is just an extravagant hope.

Gao Zhenshan's gaze swept over the bodies of all the generals, and he said: "Tomorrow, I'm afraid it's another fierce battle, I hope you can go all out, no matter what, you can't let the barbarians break through Shu City." ”

"Yes!"

The resolute answer reached Gao Zhenshan's ears.

Gao Zhenshan nodded, pondered for a while, and looked at Zhu Zhengshou, the first general under his command, "General Zhu's 200,000 recruits should also go to the battlefield tomorrow, I hope you can lead them, don't mess up the formation, once there are escapees, they will be killed." ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Zhengshou said in a firm tone.

Gao Zhenshan moved his gaze and said, "The rest of you will join me to greet the master of the Divine Fire Sect!"

Everyone nodded yes.

Gao Zhenshan let out a sigh of relief and said, "Everyone go and rest early, there will be a fierce battle tomorrow." ”

Soon, among the military tents, only Gao Zhenshan was left.

Staring at the map of Nanban, Gao Zhenshan sighed, took off the big knife on the shelf, and began to wipe it carefully, relying on this big knife he established countless military exploits, step by step to the location of Shu City, and now he still wants to use this knife to surround Shu City.

After wiping the broadsword, Gao Zhenshan walked out of the military tent, turned over his horse, and went to the general's mansion.

At this moment, in the General's Mansion, Li Qifeng was bandaging the wounds of the two old men, and Duguchen and the other three were also guarding on the side.

The two old men also paid a lot of price in order to hunt down the white tiger and the red bird, and finally let the two escape and disappear.

Seeing Gao Zhenshan's arrival, all eyes were focused on him.

Gao Zhenshan's eyes were red, and when he saw that Li Qifeng and the two old men were safe and sound, his solemn expression finally showed a hint of relaxation.

The second is to ask for recommendations and rewards
