Chapter 126: The Sword of the Sinking Sea
Tang Xiao divided into three armies, led by himself, Pang Ye, and Wei Yuxiao.
The mountain frog followed Pang Ye, and the bag cat followed Tang Xiao, responsible for protection.
Wu Liu'er stayed in the state city, and Xu Yuhou and the demon king were responsible for assisting and protecting.
The three-way army was mighty, starting from the city of Chuzhou, like a snowball, every time it passed through a county, it would gather soldiers and horses from one or more counties, and then continue to advance.
Soon, the three armies arrived in front of their first county towns that needed to be conquered by force.
And the fighting that broke out was not fierce.
Within each county, there were fewer than 500 regular defenders, and then a large group of strong men were recruited to assist in the defense.
These strong men don't even have armor, not even a decent weapon.
There are only about 1,000 defenders in the whole county, of which there are less than 300 monks, and there are only a dozen monks in Zhuji, which is a pitiful number.
And Tang Xiao's three-way army, each road has nearly 7,000 people, and each is well-equipped, each road has a Jindan monk in charge, and there are hundreds of foundation building monks, and the two sides are not at the same level at all.
The other party also dares to use his mantis arm as a car with this little strength.
What's even funnier is that these counties don't surrender, but their counties do.
Before Tang Xiao's army arrived, these counties sent men and horses to meet Wang Shi and present a surrender table.
In the end, these county soldiers helped Tang Xiao's three-way army attack their county town.
Siege warfare couldn't be easier from the start.
It's basically a flat push, and the other party didn't even have a decent resistance, so he was killed and fled.
With just one attack, he easily broke through the city gate and entered the city.
Then wait for the garbage time to pass, and an hour later, the entire county changed hands, and all those who dared to resist were reduced to dead bodies.
After easily taking the three counties, the three-way army continued to advance.
It didn't take long for them to reach their next target.
The situation is almost the same as in the previous battle.
The two sides are no longer on the same level from beginning to end, just like an adult beating a child, easily breaking through a city garrisoned by a group of "children".
The same scene is repeated at intervals.
After successfully taking these three county towns, the entire Xizhou no longer dared to resist the strength of the Grass Ji Mountain Rebels.
From then on, the entire Xizhou was no longer under the jurisdiction of the Song court.
This incident shook the entire Song court, and at the same time shocked several large states adjacent to Xizhou.
The court of the Song State was still at war with the Qin State at this time, but it did not expect to encounter such a waste as the Han family, which actually made the good Xizhou fall into the hands of bandits.
Now that Xizhou has completely fallen, the Song court has to send a large army to quell the rebellion.
But on the one hand, there was a national war, and on the other hand, there was a civil war, and the Song court did not have so much strength to support the two-front war, and the Qin state refused to stop the war easily, so the Song court could only grit its teeth and carry out a two-front battle.
What is now making the Song court chatter is the choice of the commander in charge of countering the rebellion, and the sending of that army to quell the rebellion.
And when the Song court quarreled, Tang Xiao's pace did not stop.
Although the entire Western State has fallen under their control, he said that he will go to every county town in the Western State and make arrangements for the entire Western State.
One day, when he came to a county town near the sea, he came to the shore and admired the fleet of the county and the prosperity of the coast.
The various officials of the county are responsible for following at all times, and the county guard will be a tour guide for Tang Xiao, explaining the customs and various conditions of this county town.
At this moment, a large wave suddenly rolled on the sea, and a giant whale jumped out of the sea.
Everyone was attracted by the giant whale.
The bag cat noticed the pain on the whale's face, so he said to Tang Xiao: "Sir, that big fish seems to be in pain?"
Tang Xiao was surprised: "You can also see this?"
He couldn't figure out how a fish could look pained.
"When I used to eat fish, the fish would show that look. โ
The corners of Tang Xiao's mouth twitched slightly: "Senior, if you are greedy, just say it, but the fish is too big, enough for you to eat for half a year, right?"
"No, that fish is really painful, and I don't believe I'll catch it for you. โ
After saying that, the bag cat jumped and plunged into the sea, unable to even pull it.
Tang Xiao looked confused and muttered to himself: "Senior, after you catch people back, it's no wonder that people don't suffer......
He sighed helplessly, and smiled bitterly at each other with the rest of the county officials.
But after an hour's wait, the sea was calm.
The crowd was uneasy.
"Could something happen to that old-timer?" quick, organize someone to go to the sea to check!" the county guard said nervously.
Tang Xiao smiled and waved his hand, "No." โ
A Jindan monk would not be drowned in water so easily.
At this moment, as soon as his words fell, there was a sudden surge on the surface of the sea, and then a huge fish skeleton flew out of the sea and landed heavily on the beach, setting off a wave of sand.
Everyone saw that the fish skeleton was the remains of the giant whale before, but at this time, only a fish bone remained, and the fish meat was all gone, only one fish head was intact.
At the same time, the bag cat crawled out of the sea. said with a smile: "Hehe, I didn't expect the old man to miss it, and he got out of it, leaving only a skeleton, but fortunately, the head also stayed, you can see its expression." Hiccup!"
The corners of Tang Xiao's mouth twitched wildly: "Hehe! senior, you can eat it, don't use such a bad excuse." โ
"No, it's really out of it. Hiccup! Let's see if it hurts. โ
Tang Xiao was speechless, your old man has eaten people to only one skeleton, and asked if people are in pain?
(ใ๊ฆเน ฬะ'เน)ใๅฝกโปโโป
Forget it, forget it, people are Jindan monks, they can't beat it, and they don't talk back.
Tang Xiao looked at the fish skeleton cooperatively, and then said, "Senior, you are right, and I now know why it is painful." โ
The rest of the officials present were all full of grosses and wanted to vomit, but none of them dared to make a sound.
They had the same idea as Tang Xiao before, this poor giant whale was not only caught, but also eaten cleanly, can people not be in pain?
The Bag Cat asked curiously, "Oh?
"If you don't keep gluttonous on other people's bodies, you can know the answer. โ
The bag cat pouted: "What you said is full of ambiguity. โ
Tang Xiao ignored the bag cat's complaints, and directly pulled out a dull iron sword from the giant whale's mouth.
Tang Xiao's hand shook, and all the corals and shells on the iron sword were shaken out, revealing a golden light.
"It seems that it swallowed the sword that fell into the sea by mistake, and even if it was not eaten by you, it would have died soon after because of the sword. Well, it's a really good sword. Tang Xiao muttered to himself.
"Eh, thank you for helping the old man take out the loot!" the bag cat gestured as he reached for his sword.
Thanks to the 2 monthly passes of the sin boss who dreamed of it!
