The next day, multiple groups of cavalry attacked, harvesting the lives of all the people of Shushan Mountain they encountered. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When the cavalry returned in the evening with a bloody aura, Dongfang Wei was no longer in the camp.

At this time, Shushan was already considered to be destroyed, and the Yin and Yang family finally revealed the purpose of attacking Shushan. This purpose makes Dongfang Wei unbelievable,

A tree, a tree that is regarded as a totem by the people of Shushan, this is so incredible, the army of 10,000 people was dispatched just for a tree, I think he thought it was because the barbarians of Shushan were not honest and committed a rebellion.

Although Dongfang Wei found that the people of Shushan were dishonest, it was still difficult to accept that he was sent out just for a tree.

Even if this tree is the totem of the Shushan people, known as the sacred tree, and is considered to be the sacred tree of Fusang inhabited by the sun, it still can't change the fact that it is just a tree.

However, when Dongfang Wei led the troops up the mountain with the Yin and Yang family, his thoughts changed.

Looking at the giant tree in front of him, Dongfang Wei's jaw was about to fall. Nima, what kind of tree is this, this height is almost as high as a small thirty-story building, this thick, the diameter is obviously more than ten meters.

Dongfang Wei smashed his mouth: "If this is chopping wood to make a fire, how long will it take." ”

"I won't be able to burn it in ten years." Ah Hu sighed on the side.

The Yin and Yang family listened to the conversation between the only two people in the East, and their faces were full of anger. Star Soul immediately sarcastic:

"Ignorant reckless man, how can this sacred tree be compared to a mere wood, this is the Fusang Divine Tree, the place where the three-legged golden crow dwells."

"I like to say, what's the matter, can you handle it?" Dongfang Wei returned a big white eye.

Although you can see the tree from afar, it is even more impressive to stand under the tree. Originally, they should have been able to reach the bottom of the tree at noon, but the mountain people and Yu Yuan's guards who fled yesterday did not hide in the mountains and forests, but stubbornly resisted them.

Faith was such a terrible thing, and the mad mountain people threw themselves into the raging fire of the Qin army like moths, and then burned them out. The crazy mountain people were not afraid of life and death, and they had even been cut down to the ground, as long as there was still a breath left, they had to find ways to prevent the Qin army from approaching the sacred tree.

In this tragic battle, there were almost no prisoners, and the losses of the Qin army were as high as more than 2,000, while the opponent was only less than 5,000 barbarians lacking armor and weapons.

This made Dongfang Wei very angry, he only had one deputy general, and there were only more than 10,000 people under his command, and he lost thousands in the battle of Shushan, what does this make Your Majesty think? Is he incompetent? Although Dongfang Wei was not a diehard loyalist of Qin Shi Huang, he was considered to be incapable of how to hold the military power, and how could he save his life in the troubled times in the future without military power?

Dongfang Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head, it's useless to think about this now, the bridge is naturally straight to the bow of the boat. Anyway, he also completed the task, slaughtering Shushan, which is also a big military feat, presumably His Majesty the Emperor will not blame, but this major loss, Dongfang Wei can't accept it, compared to those semi-professional soldiers, his subordinates are all professional soldiers who have been transformed by him.

In this era of generally low level of knowledge, it is difficult and expensive to train a professional army. The First Emperor did not invest less military funds in Dongfang Wei's new army, but this time it was not very beautiful, and I am afraid that the future funds will be reduced.

"How do you get such a big tree?" Dongfang Wei looked up and down at Fusang Shenmu.

Ah Hu looked at Dongfang Wei strangely: "General, of course you dug it up and took it away, otherwise how would you take it." ”

The only face in the East is speechless, dig it up and take it away, say it lightly, I'll dig it out and you take it away? Retarded!

"Don't think about this, as long as the general sends someone to dig up the tree by the roots, and the rest will be handed over to our Yin and Yang family, the general has no ability to get rid of the divine tree, but my Yin and Yang family has a way." The Star Soul mocked Dongfang Wei.

Dongfang Wei didn't speak with a dark face, and walked away by himself. It's not that he can't think of how to take this sacred tree away, but without exception, he has to use modern means.

The root system of the sacred tree is extremely developed, and it is tens of meters deep underground, digging for several days, and cutting off many smaller roots before digging out.

On the other side, the cavalry army had little to gain from the camp and sweep, and gradually Dongfang Wei was sending soldiers out.

Zhao Gao had already returned to Xianyang after eliminating the last trace of resistance in Shushan, and it seemed that General Meng Tian's operation to exterminate the Mo family was about to begin, and he needed the assistance of the intelligence ability of the net.

Dongfang Wei's corporal is also ready to return to Xianyang at any time, and the follow-up treatment of the Divine Tree has been handed over to the Yin and Yang family, anyway, Dongfang Wei doesn't want to see the little boy of the Star Soul anymore.

In addition, I have to find a way to make a book of Mohist minds. The matter of the Six Souls Fear Curse has not been solved yet. At the thought of the Six Souls Fear Curse, Dongfang Wei had the urge to slash the Star Soul to death with a chaotic sword.

In fact, in the final analysis, the Yin and Yang family and Great Qin are in a cooperative relationship, not a superior or subordinate, and the Yin and Yang family does not accept the leadership of the First Emperor, so the Star Soul can ignore the feelings of the First Emperor and attack a general who is not very important to the empire.

Since ancient times, no king has ever been able to withstand the temptation of immortality, the Yin and Yang family was born from Taoism, although acting strangely, but still pursuing the art of immortality, its elder Xu Fu delved into the art of alchemy, especially good at alchemy.

Because Xu Fu often preached to the First Emperor about the Immortal Mountain outside the number, he said that there was an elixir of immortality overseas, and he was most valued by the First Emperor.

Dongfang Wei didn't know that this trip to Shushan was promoted by Xu Fu, and it was said that Xu Fu and Shushan had an inexplicable relationship, but looking at his destruction of Shushan, it seems that eighty percent of them have a grudge.

Dongfang Wei was in a hurry to return to Xianyang, leaving only the foot guards of the Yin and Yang family, and he embarked on the return journey with 3,000 cavalry. Ah Hu was left behind to take charge of the infantry army. traveled all the way at full speed, but in a few days they entered the land of Guanzhong.

On the way back, Gongsun Yan kept boasting about how talented, smart, and excellent his niece and granddaughter were, and said that when he returned to Xianyang, he would go to Dongfang Wei's parents to discuss marriage, and Dongfang Wei should go to Gongsun's house to propose marriage as soon as possible.

After a few more days, Dongfang Wei returned home, but Gongsun Yan followed with a dead face.

As soon as Gongsun Yan arrived at Dongfang's house, as soon as he entered the door and saw Dongfang Wei's parents, he shouted loudly: "My family! ”

Dongfang Wei's parents were stunned when they were shouted, and they didn't know what to do. Dongfang Wei had to go back to the room and talk to his parents and sister, just to cover up the fact that the Six Souls Fear Curse had not been completely unraveled in the past.

"Hmph, that person from the Yin and Yang family is really hateful." The father slammed the table and roared.

It's just that the mother and sister obviously focused not on Dongfang Wei's body, but on Dongfang Wei's promise to marry someone else's girl.
