In the coming day, on the east bank of the Yeyu River, a river buffer zone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The bright yellow umbrella cover is punched out, the golden axe is discharged, and on the wide desk in the middle, the god of the emperor is written in the front, the incense burner is in the back, and the three animal sacrifices are at the end.

After everything was prepared, it was time for Emperor Wude Li Yi to come forward to talk to the river god.

The soldiers of the whole army waited solemnly, and no one dared to say anything, lest they offend the gods.

Due to various unknown reasons, Emperor Wude came a little late. The anxious hearts of the soldiers gradually cooled down because of the coolness after dusk.

Just when the sun was setting, Li Yi was late.

The whole army was very secretive about the river that could poison people, and Li Yi did not tell anyone about the method of sacrificing the river, so the ministers were all nervous.

Li Yi did this only to boost morale in a way unique to the times in the superstitious environment of ancient times.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fully believed that their emperor was the true son of heaven and had the ability to communicate with the gods.

Under the watchful eye of everyone, Li Yi walked to the offering table alone, suddenly waved his hand, and said to Dian Wei: "Dian Wei, just insert two pillars of incense!" ”

Dian Wei was taken aback and asked hesitantly: "Your Majesty, whatever you want...... Insert two posts at random? ”

Li Yi said impatiently: "This is already a lot of face for the river god of Ye Yuhe, and the purpose of inserting two pillars of incense is to lure his Yuan Shen out to talk." If not, there is not a single stick of incense. ”

"Ahh Yes, yes! Dian Wei hurriedly lit two pillars of incense and plugged them in.

At this moment, Li Yi's style, if it is a later generation, must be a magic stick that everyone shouts and beats. However, 1,800 years ago, in front of 200,000 soldiers, it was really the momentum of the Son of Heaven.

"What is the river god, the emperor is the true son of heaven, there is no need to bird him at all." The morale of the soldiers was immediately boosted.

Several military advisors opened their mouths and glanced at each other, but they were also fooled, and said in their hearts, Could it be that the emperor can really talk to the river god?

Under the expectant gaze of the soldiers, Li Yi walked to the offering table, reached out and picked up a spirit rune on the offering table, and Li Yi drew a few circles on it at will.

At this time, Li Yi's expression became serious, he stared at the river, the two fingers of his left hand held the spirit rune and raised it diagonally, his right hand was pointed at his chest, and he recited a few spells that no one understood, and finally shouted, and waved the spirit rune violently, and a flame burst into flames with a bang, and when it was thrown out, it burned instantly, and a wisp of ashes swept into the river with the wind.

"Ahh The soldiers of the three armies retreated in unison at the moment when the spirit rune burst into flames.

Even a few military advisors could not hide their shock, and they were silent and confused, but who didn't want to master divine power?

"Long live my emperor, long live!" And they bowed their heads.

And the person concerned, Li Yi, secretly wiped his sweat, and said in his heart that fortunately, the chemistry he learned in high school in his previous life had not been completely returned to the teacher, and he knew some out-of-the-way methods. There are a lot of animals buried in the jungle of southern Xinjiang, and it is enough to collect some white phosphorus.

After doing this, Li Yi recited a few more incantations, then crossed his legs in the yellow futon and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

The crowd did not dare to make a sound, and knelt around and watched.

It was estimated that it had been two quarters of an hour, and Li Yi was tired cross-legged, so he stood up, picked up another spirit rune, and recited a spell that no one understood.

With the sound of "boom", another large spark shone in the awe-inspiring eyes of the soldiers.

At this point, the communication with the river god came to an end.

Xu Maogong saw the opportunity the fastest, and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, how does the river god here answer?" ”

Li Yi turned around and said to the soldiers: "The primordial god of the river god here, just now complained to me about his grievances......

The soldiers were shocked, and said in their hearts that the emperor was really the son of heaven, and the river gods would come to complain.

Li Yi took the opportunity to say again: "It turned out that the Southern Barbarian Meng was gathering anger and attracted the barbarian demons to pollute the river, and the river god is a god of justice and is fighting with it. Just now, I invited the heavenly soldiers and generals, repelled the demons, and the river has recovered. However, the fear of demons has returned, and according to the current situation of our army, I have discussed with the river god that we must block the attack of demons at night to ensure that our army can cross the river. ”

The soldiers fell to the ground in unison, looking at Li Yi in awe, shocked by his words.

Xu Maogong wiped his wet face, and even he began to believe it, and bowed: "It is not good for our army to cross the river during the day, and it is best to cross the river at night." It's just that, what about the power of the Nanban demons? Will our river gods be able to destroy it? ”

Li Yixin said, "You guys are thinking very far.

The river water is poisonous but caused by the natural environment, he can't change the natural environment here, and naturally he can't say that he can completely eliminate the poison in the river water.

However, Li Yi can't completely ignore the expectant eyes of the soldiers under his command, such behavior has a great possibility of losing fans.

Li Yi's eyes rolled a few times, and he thought of solving the current difficulty, and he said with a serious expression: "Demons are transformed by the anger of barbarians, but wherever there is anger, they can continue to incarnate. ”

When everyone heard this, they showed shocked expressions.

Li Yi was secretly happy when he saw this, but he pretended to be very serious, and said: "This Nanban has been outside the country for a long time, so this is how angry it is. When I can enter the rule of my Tang Dynasty, Heavenly Court will send a god general to suppress it. In March and April, only nights are available. The rest of the day, it's unimpeded. ”

"You must remember that anger can transform demons, so do the right thing. This wild land has been deprived of righteousness for many years, so it is very angry. When there is no anger, the river will be harmless. ”

Li Yi flickered, and said that the soldiers were in the clouds, and said in his heart that it was the evil spirit that formed the demons and polluted the river, and under the suppression of the heavenly court generals, the demons were able to accumulate enough strength to wreak havoc in March and April. And as long as people have the right path, these demons can be completely eliminated if they lose the source of their power.

If others say this, I'm afraid many people will be suspicious. But who called it Li Yi who said this, everyone was convinced of it, and they bowed and shouted: "The emperor is blessed with all the heavens, and all the gods are welcome." Therefore, my Tang Kingdom has a bumper harvest and a prosperous country! ”

Li Yi waved his hand and shouted: "Lead the army to cross the river and cut off the grain route of the Southern Barbarian soldiers!" ”

"Yes!" Xu Huang and Zhang Dingbian took the fanatical five thousand soldiers and horses and went down the river without hesitation. They have no doubts about their leader.

Five thousand soldiers and horses crossed the river in a hurry, and they were really unscathed.

At this point, the worried officers and men of the three armed forces showed ecstasy.

Their own leader is the true son of heaven, who can not like it?

As these miracles spread to the world, Li Yi's prestige reached unparalleled heights, and people worshipped Emperor Wude fanatically.

Xu Huang and Zhang Dingbian, who crossed the river, marched overnight, bypassed the barbarian Tucheng on the shore, galloped fifty miles in one night, and came to a mountain valley.

As the name suggests, there are mountains on both sides, and there is a sheep intestine trail in the middle.

Sure enough, as Zhuge Liang judged, the rear of the Nanban was empty, and there were only a few hundred barbarians guarding here. Xu Huang and Zhang Dingbian led the soldiers and quietly went up the mountain, quickly eliminated the defenders and occupied Jiashanyu. The two generals set up camp overnight, preparing to occupy the place for a long time.

There were barbarians who fled, and the news was reported to Meng Huo Dazhai.

Meng Shu didn't care, and said: "Pass my order, Ah Huinan will lead 5,000 troops and recapture Jiashanyu!" ”

………………

Ten days later, Ah Hui attacked the mountains and valleys, but lost his troops.

At this time, Meng Shu also suddenly found that the army's food had been exhausted.

Just when Meng Shu was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, there was a loud shout outside. He hurriedly went out to check, and it turned out that the Tang army had fully crossed Ye Yuze.

It turned out that in the past ten days, the main force of the Tang Army was not idle in the east of Ye Yuze, but was making all efforts to make rafts and boats and other means of crossing the river.

Nearly 200,000 troops made preparations at full speed for 10 days, and the results were remarkable. On Ye Yuze at this moment, it is really a race of thousands of sails.

The barbarians defending the west bank had not eaten for a day, and they were all so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.

It is said that people are iron and rice are steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will panic, and you won't eat for a day, who can stand it?

Since ancient times, who will give you no food to fight hard, and the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, let alone barbarian soldiers who have no military discipline to speak of. Therefore, when the Tang army rushed to the opposite bank, the barbarians scattered and fled. Especially the barbarians who were once let go by Li Yi were unwilling to fight, and were forced by the leader. Under their lead, the brutes were quickly routed on all fronts.

The shouting and killing did not stop all night, and when it was dawn, there was blood everywhere on the west bank of Ye Yuze, and stumps and broken arms abounded.

Li Yi won a complete victory, highly praised Zhuge Liang's plan to cut off grain, and rewarded Xu Huang and Zhang Dingbian, the two generals of the Southern Barbarian Grain Road.

More than 100,000 barbarians, although many were killed by the Tang army and more escaped, but there were not many who surrendered and were captured, and there were forty or fifty thousand.

Li Yi ordered the surrender of troops to be guarded by the pro-Tang Southern Barbarians, and he himself once again waved his army to pursue the defeated Meng Shu.

………………

Meng Shu finally escaped the pursuit of the elite Tang army led by Li Yi, mainly because he was familiar with the geographical environment, otherwise he would definitely not be able to escape.

After escaping for a day and a night, Meng Huo sent Ah Hui Lan, Dong Naina and other generals and chiefs to intercept the scattered barbarian soldiers on various key roads.

The barbarians have been ruled by the Chief Cave Lord for generations, and they have developed a subconscious mind to obey the orders of the Chief Cave Master, so although they are reluctant to fight, they still converge here at Meng Huo.

Meng Shu, who had 50,000 soldiers and horses again, faced a serious problem of no food.

As the old saying goes, if there is no agriculture, there is no stability, and if there is no food, there will be chaos, which means that if there is no food, the soldiers and horses will be scattered. Meng Shu may not know this sentence, but as a leader, he still understands the truth of this sentence. Therefore, it is imperative to find food.

However, Meng Shu, who lost the nest of Wuxi Cave, has become a rootless duckweed at the moment, and if he wants to get food, he has nowhere to get it.
