Chapter 278: Heavenly Sacrifice
"Report to the great sage and good teacher, our army's 30,000 pursuit troops were ambushed by the enemy in the dense forest ten miles outside the east city, and lost more than 10,000 yuan."
"What??" Everyone in the lobby was shocked, and Huang Long couldn't help but stand up and shout. Fang Cai Huang Long agreed with the pursuit, because in Huang Long's opinion, the Yellow Turban Army had to make an unending appearance, otherwise it would be too easy for the Han army to retreat, and it would easily affect the morale of the army.
But unexpectedly, the pursuing troops were actually ambushed, this is not an ordinary soldier composed of croppers, but an elite combat unit cultivated by Zhang Jiao after many years of training in Yizhou, the number of this force is not much, only 100,000! was named Yellow Turban Lux, and this time it lost a tenth
"The enemy army has a master!!" Huang Long said assertedly, his tone indescribably solemn. Because Huanglong had studied the Sanfu region and knew that there was almost no area suitable for ambushes on the line from the county town to Chang'an, but the Han army actually did an ambush, and once the surname ate 10,000 of the most elite Yellow Turban wrestlers of the Yellow Turban Army.
"Xingba, the lost men and horses of the Yellow Turban Force, selected from the elite of other troops, must be replenished with 100,000 people." Zhang Jiao looked very flat, or incapable of showing surprise, because Zhang Jiao looked a little terminally ill now.
"No!" Gan Ning did not refuse, but this failure made the decision in Gan Ning's heart deeper and heavier, and the Yellow Turban Army has now reached its limit, and it is impossible to continue to be brilliant.
"Great virtuous and good teacher, this big battle is full of weirdness, this is ashamed that the county town is not safe, the great virtuous and good teacher should first move to the military camp outside the city and station." Although Huang Long is a top strategist, he can't see through Li Ru's arrangement at once, so he can only use the most stupid method to send Zhang Jiao out of the city first, as long as Zhang Jiao is safe, even if these hundreds of thousands of troops are refrigerated, it doesn't matter!
It's not that Huanglong can't find out, but because of the time gap, Li Ru has made a lot of arrangements, otherwise such a strong sulfur smell will be discovered by Zhang Jiao and others at once.
In order to cover up the smell of sulfur, sulfur is put in each package of units, respectively, this kind of sulfur is a kind of extremely flammable dead leaves, dead leaves and sulfur together, not only can completely cover the smell of sulfur, but also after encountering fire, the outbreak will be more violent.
"Leave?" Zhang Jiao frowned, glanced at the yellow scarf generals in the lobby who changed color, and said lightly: "The deity and the brothers advance and retreat together, there is no need to say more."
Hearing Zhang Jiao's words, there was a hint of emotion in the eyes of many yellow turban generals, of course, when Zhang Jiao was like a god, even if Zhang Jiao left the county town, there would be no dissatisfied expressions.
"Great Sage and Good Teacher" Huang Long wanted to persuade again, but when he saw a haze flashing in Zhang Jiao's eyes, he suddenly looked stunned, and reluctantly returned to the couch where he was sitting, frowning, thinking about something.
"Report to the great sage and good teacher, many houses in Beicheng are on fire, and the fire is very big" A detective quickly walked into the lobby and kowtowed to Zhang Jiao.
"Fire?" Zhang Jiao frowned, and said a little impatiently: "Such a trivial matter, deal with it yourself, is it necessary to communicate with the deity?" ”
"Report to the great sage and good teacher, there are fires in many large households in Nancheng, and most of these big families are no longer empty, it seems that they have already left the county town!" It was another tanma, but this tanma's expression was ugly, as if he had found something, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Who is Zhang Jiao? There are not many political skills, but the means of seeing people and demagoguery are all over the sky, two fires in a row, one in Beicheng, there is nothing to say, after all, Beicheng is mostly a civilian residential area, mixed fish and dragons, not to mention fire during the war, all the dead light is not unusual, but Nancheng is different, no matter what city, it is expensive to the south, except for Huacheng, the main reason is that the Han Dynasty respected the south.
And the place where the big families lived, Nancheng, actually caught fire, and there was even no one in these big families, which is very suspicious.
"What did you find?" As the first Huang Long to follow Zhang Jiao, his ability to observe words and emotions is naturally not weak, seeing Tanma's face, Huang Long couldn't help but ask out loud.
Tanma pursed his mouth, glanced at the people in the hall, gritted his teeth and said: "Qiyu Military Division, not only the almost large families on fire, but also the entire Nancheng, as long as there is status, there is almost no one in the powerful mansion."
"What??"
"How is that possible??
"Not good!!"
"Boom" Suddenly, there was a violent explosion around the county guard's mansion, as if the sky was falling apart, it was terrifying, and the real lobby trembled.
"What's wrong? What happened? Gan Ning stood up, protected Zhang Jiao with many yellow turban generals, and shouted.
"Report to the great virtuous teacher, it's not good, the real county guard is on fire, the fire is very big" suddenly ran into a big man dressed as a yellow turban wrestler, fell to the ground with a pale face, and shouted.
"Fire" Zhang Jiao whispered softly, reluctantly supported his body, left the soft couch, and slowly walked outside the lobby with the support of Gan Ning.
There are fires everywhere, skyrocketing fires, these fires are burning everywhere, without the slightest warning in advance, under the light of the blue sky and white clouds, it looks so weird, so powerless.
"The whole army immediately withdraws from the county town of Zheli" Although he was very tired, Zhang Jiao gritted his teeth and ordered to speak out: "We have won the plan, let the army escort the grain and grass out of the county town first, and the grain and grass must not be lost."
"No!!" A member of the Yellow Turban generals behind Gan Ning, who was in charge of transporting grain and grass, shouted in response, and then hurriedly trotted away.
The flames soared into the sky, as if entering the world of flames, although the current firelight was still relatively scattered and not too concentrated, but the entire county town was full of fire, and it seemed that the fire was very large.
Suddenly, a burst of arrows broke through the air, which was very harsh, and actually overshadowed the screams everywhere in the city.
After the loud sound of "enemy attack woo woo woo" sounded like a bronze bell, a horn sounded, and the entire county town was in chaos.
"It's not good, it's rocket !!" Gan Ning's eyes were brighter, and he glanced at the east, although the sun was very dazzling, he still saw the flames carried on the arrows, and his expression suddenly changed greatly!!
"Fire attack, they take fire attack!!" Huang Long also changed color, and reacted in an instant, but Huang Long still didn't understand how the Han army could make fires everywhere in the city, and how many people would have to be sacrificed if people were arranged to stay in the city in advance?
"Retreat, get out of the city first!!" Zhang Jiao also changed color, and in Zhang Jiao's perception, the fire in the city became more and more vigorous, as if he had entered the fire.
"Boom, boom, boom" bursts of violent explosions sounded, and in the east, west, south, and north of the city, there were bursts of fire in the sky, shouting, and scolding in a noisy manner.
"Huhu" is windy, with flames, raging in the city, the fire borrows the wind, burning more and more terrifying, even Zhang Jiao and Gan Ning, the two strong people's foreheads, have left a trace of sweat.
"Boom" Another explosion came from the sky, this time not from somewhere else, but from the county guard's mansion! "Ahh!!h
"It hurts!!"
I saw the Yellow Turban generals fall to the ground one by one in embarrassment, and some of them even burned with flames all over their bodies, screaming in pain.
"Great sage and good teacher, soon become a heavenly master!!" Seeing Zhang Jiao being blown away from afar, Gan Ning's expression changed dramatically and he roared, and quickly stepped forward.
Zhang Jiao was scorched black, his body was blue and black, and he was indescribably embarrassed, but the strange thing was that Zhang Jiao was still awake, and he looked much more energetic than just now.
"Ahem, the deity is fine" looked at the yellow turban generals who came around, opened the corners of his mouth and pulled a trace of an ugly smile, and reluctantly said: "Help me up, the deity will perform a heavenly sacrifice!! ”
"What? Heavenly Sacrifice?? ”
"No, Heavenly Master, this is absolutely unacceptable!!"
"Ahem Heavenly Master, the Heavenly Sacrifice can only be made when it is a desperate situation, and it is absolutely impossible now." Huang Long was also very embarrassed, the blood on his back was pouring in, and he couldn't stop trembling, it seemed that the injury was not light, if it wasn't for Zhang Jiao's amazing words, I am afraid that Huang Long would not speak.
"Desperate??" Zhang Jiao glanced around blankly, laughed a little self-deprecatingly, and said, "Isn't it a desperate situation now?" The heavenly sacrifice is my Yellow Sect forbidden canon, and after using it, I will definitely not live for three months, and the body of the deity is no longer good, if I don't use the heavenly sacrifice, I am afraid that I will not be able to pass for two months!! ”
Heavenly sacrifice? What is the Celestial Sacrifice? This is a secret method obtained by Zhang Jiao from the Taiping Qing Collar Book, which can literally be seen that the heavenly sacrifice is a kind of ritual of asking for sacrifices to the heavens, and what is the ability of this ritual? According to the Qing Collar Book, the stronger the individual's ability, the more things he can ask for, such as heavy rain from the sky!! Because the way of the Heavenly Sacrifice is relatively simple, as long as there is internal force, it can be used, so Zhang Jiao did not hide it privately, but promoted it in the upper echelons of the Yellow Sect, which is very practical, but the Heavenly Sacrifice has a terrifying taboo, that is, after use, no matter how old you are, the life span will be shortened to three months, and it is irreversibly shortened.
Originally, Zhang Jiao would not have been able to perform the Heavenly Sacrifice by himself, Zhang Jiao didn't want to die, but now the situation forced Zhang Jiao to do without, because if he didn't perform the Heavenly Sacrifice, most of the millions of Yellow Turban Army would be buried in the fire, and among them, Zhang Jiao's lifeblood, 100,000 Yellow Turban Warriors!! Zhang Jiao is reluctant and can't let go, because these 100,000 yellow turban wrestlers carry the hope of Zhang Jiao's dominance in the world!
It is not very difficult to perform the heavenly sacrifice, of course, there is also a condition, that is, blood, enough blood, so that the person who performs the ** can communicate with the heavens and ask for heavy rain from the heavens, and the current situation is impossible to gather enough cannon fodder to donate blood.
In desperation, Zhang Jiao can only use his own personal guard, the Yellow Turban Lux to blood, these Yellow Turban Lux are the elite of the elite, if there is too much bleeding, it is easy to die, Zhang Jiao is really a little heartbroken.
The memorial was soon ready, only to see the fire erupting all around, and in an open space in the county guard's mansion, there was a strange tranquility, hundreds of yellow turban wrestlers, standing in the gossip pattern, surrounded Zhang Jiao in the middle, and Zhang Jiao held a golden sword, reflecting the flame and fire, emitting a divine light that made people surrender from the bottom of their hearts.
If you let people who know the goods see it, they will definitely be surprised, because Zhang Jiao's sword is actually the legendary Dingguang Sword with the name of Xuanyuan Sword, Dingguang Sword is Yin Taijia, Yin Shang's treasure of the country, very valuable, since the demise of Yin Shang, Dingguang Sword has disappeared, and now it actually appears in Zhang Jiao's hands, how is it possible??
Sitting on the futon, Zhang Jiao's face was pale and bloodless, he pinched his plum blossom fingers, looked up at the sky that was shining brightly, and shouted in a desolate tone: "Disciple Zhang Jiao, today I am facing a catastrophe of annihilation, I ask God to see for the sake of the millions of people in the city of Zheli County, and send down the divine water of salvation, and the disciple is willing to sacrifice his life's strength and longevity."
