Chapter 1021: War Drums Beat
Bai Xue took in Luo Ping's expression, sighed lightly, and continued: "At that time, after the death of the 100,000 armored soldiers, those relatives who rushed over from their hometowns wanted to collect their corpses, but they were rejected by the Northern Song Dynasty army, and even extremely cruelly put the 100,000 armored soldiers in the wilderness, allowing the beasts to eat.
Later, after the nomadic scouts finally decided that the 100,000 army starved to death in the territory, they were also embarrassed, and at the same time they lamented that they could not grasp this opportunity, they felt even more sorry for the 100,000 army of iron bones, and Zuihou even dug a pit to bury the 100,000 army, and the name of the tombstone was - 100,000 armored soldiers.
After this incident, there are continuous rumors in the market, once seen 100,000 armored troops outside the pass, neatly lined up, constantly banging on the city gate, wanting to return, the local government in order to eliminate this kind of rumors, specially invited a local respected Taoist chief, the practice of exorcism, as a result, after the Taoist chief saw the original burial pit, shook his head and brushed his sleeves away.
Since then, there have been more than a dozen Taoist chiefs, were invited to go, but more than half of them shook their heads and walked away, occasionally staying to practice, to Zuihou is said to have died mysteriously, and later, in the Yangtze River area, there are rumors, said that they saw the 100,000 armored soldiers, these people took the boat, happily returned to their hometown, and those days the local birds and beasts were all frightened, and the timid would even be scared to death. ”
Hearing this, Luo Ping sat up suddenly, and said in surprise: "Do you think that in this magic mountain, there are 100,000 armored soldiers hidden?" ”
Bai Xue nodded cautiously, pointed to the peak of the Demon Mountain, and said, "Look at the peak of the Demon Mountain, it has slowly had an outline, what do you think it looks like?" ”
"Uh, and that?" Without Bai Xue's mention, Luo Ping really didn't know what was wrong with the peak of the Magic Mountain, so he squinted his eyes and said in surprise: "This Magic Mountain is really peculiar, and the shape of the entire mountain peak is like a coffin." ”
"That's right, since ancient times, in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, that is, in the Sichuan Basin, there is a very peculiar burial method - rock burial, people are accustomed to putting large and small coffins on the cliffs, in order to pray for the blessing of God, so that the souls of relatives can return to the sky, but this magic mountain, has become a huge coffin itself, just imagine, how many souls can be contained in such a large coffin?"
The more Luo Ping listened, the more he felt the Heart Sutra, if it was really the 100,000 armored army that was controlled by the female devil, it would definitely be bad news for them.
These 100,000 armored soldiers can be said to have been forced to death by the Northern Song Dynasty, and they also suffered the most inhumane death, as a soldier, their own anger is already scary enough, and with the cruel death, and terrifying numbers, it can be imagined that the scene of these 100,000 Yin troops rushing down the mountain together.
Seeing the shock in Luo Ping's eyes, Bai Xue shook his head and said: "The situation is not necessarily so bad, this is just an assumption of mine, maybe there is no so-called 100,000 armored troops in this mountain at all, after all, this matter has passed for almost a thousand years, in fact, whether it has existed or not, we still don't know." So don't think too much about it now, and think about the countermeasures well is the key. ”
Facing Bai Xue's words, Luo Ping rolled his eyes, thinking that it wasn't you who said it, a normal person would be very uncalm when he heard this, not to mention that he was still shouldering such a big responsibility and pressure.
"You don't have any how?" Luo Ping simply played a scoundrel and kicked the ball back to the opponent.
Bai Xue shrugged and floated away, and the angry Luo Ping couldn't wait to give him the middle finger.
……
Luo Ping, who had been sleepless all night, sat down and recited the Tao Te Ching, and finally became refreshed, took the letter handed by Long Xin, and read it carefully.
This letter was sent by the left and right armies in the morning, and the specific route was written in it, as well as what he saw and heard last night, which was very detailed, so that Luo Ping also had a rough judgment of the entire Magic Mountain in his heart.
I have to say that the Magic Mountain is indeed an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, except for a good buffer zone in front of the main peak, there are almost cliffs on the left and right, even if it is difficult to find a few paths, it is also a sheep's intestine path, not to mention walking the army, even if you pass alone, you must be extremely careful, otherwise you may fall into the abyss at any time.
But fortunately, Luo Ping did not intend to let the two armies take up the burden of attacking, their main role is to play the effect of a surprise soldier, if there is really any unexpected situation in the magic mountain at that time, although these two roads of people can not provide much effect in terms of combat power, but it is still very helpful for the psychological effect of the middle army, at least when the middle army is fighting, there will be a hint in his heart, that is, there are two people on his side who can rush over to support at any time.
Don't underestimate this, in fact, there are many major wars in history, and the turning points of famous stations are all due to various reasons, resulting in psychological trauma or stimulation on one side, such as the word "broken boat" is derived from this, and embattled, etc., all of which are related to psychological warfare.
After reading the letter, Luo Ping came to the tent of the Council of Elders to discuss the attack on the Magic Mountain, the meeting went very smoothly, the elders had fully recognized Luo Ping's ability, and the decisions made by Luo Ping were not as strict as they were at the beginning.
After Jihua passed, Luo Ping let out a sigh, what Jihua had been doing for so long was finally going to be implemented, and whether the entire Taoism was dead or alive was all on this battle.
When the Taoist priests heard the news of the attack on the Magic Mountain, one by one they also seemed extremely excited and excited, no wonder, in the past few decades, the entire Taoism has seemed too silent, and now this situation has to make those young Taoist priests excited, in ancient times, there were soldiers who became famous in a battle, and now they also have this kind of dream, hoping to become famous in a fight, or kill some demons, and it will not be too embarrassing to mention it to their companions in the future.
At this time, the magic mountain was also very lively, and thousands of demon troops were lining up to practice in an orderly manner under the mobilization of Lu Qingfeng.
Even Zuihou has about 3,000 demon troops, dressed in battle armor and picking up spears, looking majestic, while those little green-skinned monsters are in the corpse refining room, receiving the training of the old devil.
