When dusk covers the land, the battle ends.

Ji Yu did not return to the camp to have dinner with the soldiers because he was in a bad mood.

It can be said that in his previous life and this life, he has never felt so bad, except for the time when the little girl who is cuter than two orioles disappears into the world.

After all, when a person walks into your memory, mind, and heart, even if there is no love, only some friendship of acquaintance, when she really disappears from the world.

When you go up and down to the poor Yellow Spring, and you don't see the two places, you will still be sad.

Of course, he was in such a bad mood at this time, not because of these old things scattered in the past years, but because of today's battle, which he fought a little bit of a loss.

The charge of the heavy cavalry army was indeed too strong, so that the disciples of the city within the city, who were scattered in this battle, became famous, and the number of seriously injured exceeded dozens of people.

Even Xiahou Yuan, Long Jia, Judge, Bai Wuchang and others were not lightly injured.

This is probably the smallest battle Ji Yu has fought in his previous life and this life, and it is also the most helpless battle he has ever fought.

Unfortunately, his army is small in number, his training intensity is weak, and his cultivation is low, and his realm cannot grow by leaps and bounds because of his strange physique.

If he had the strength to break through the armor realm at that time, then the outcome of this battle would have been a little different.

At the very least, even if many people would be seriously injured, it would be possible to ensure that those dead disciples would survive.

At this moment, Lingyue stepped onto the castle tower with a bowl of chicken soup.

She looked at the young man in Xuanyi who was standing in the wind and snow with his hands in his hands, and his eyes were full of pity: "Childe, in fact, this battle is already very perfect, and I don't blame you for the heavy casualties." ”

"After all, whoever the commander is changed, and I don't think the situation will be much better than ours when encountering such a heavy cavalry army. ”

The gaze in Ji Yu's eyes was cold, colder than this wind and snow.

He said, "No, there is a person in this world who may be able to handle this situation better than me." ”

Ling Yue was a little puzzled, whether it was when she was the young palace master of the Flower Palace, or when she was the slave of the celebrant eunuch, or when she later met the son who was fortunate enough to become the peerless Tianjiao of the Western Chu Kendo.

She had never seen a person as good and powerful as Childe.

It's hard for her to imagine that there is anyone in this world who can do a better job than Childe.

Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, and finally spit out the name that he didn't want to mention: "Tang Jiu!"

He hadn't mentioned the man by name since that incident.

When he returned from rebirth and entered the secret realm of the earth, he mentioned it once when he explained to Ling Yue that the army is too much stronger than the individual.

This time, it's the second time.

"Bang!"

The bowl of chicken soup in Ling Yue's hand fell to the ground, the beautiful porcelain bowl shattered to the ground, and the fragrant chicken soup also splashed on the ground, and the white mist steamed, but it cooled down in an instant.

It's like someone's heart.

At this moment, she realized that Gongzi didn't care about those dead disciples in the city, nor because of the heavy casualties of his subordinates.

Rather, he cares about the glory of his body and the pride of his heart.

Childe is the most affectionate, and amorous is the most ruthless!

In the big tent of the 200,000-strong army in Yizhou, Chen Ren was pacing back and forth, like an ant on a hot pot, turning round and round.

From the look on his face, his gaze, and his actions at this time, the staff officer knew that he should be extremely annoyed and irritable at this time.

The staff officer rolled his eyes and said comfortingly: "General, although the siege machinery was destroyed this time, there were also several local cultivators left, not to mention that no one in our army was killed, only minor injuries and rare serious injuries. ”

"As for the absence of siege machinery, it will affect the process of wanting to attack Luzhou County, but it will not affect anything, even if there are many cultivators on the opposite side, and their strength is super strong. ”

"But to deal with our 200,000 troops with 20,000 miscellaneous fish is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and it is only a matter of time before we capture Lushan County. ”

Chen Ren stopped, closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said: "I know this, I, Chen Ren, have been fighting for the state pastor for several years, and I have been invincible and invincible, but now I have been destroyed by hundreds of people from the army of 200,000 and the siege machinery is completely destroyed. ”

"Do you know that this is not only the siege machinery, but also the reputation of my Chen Ren. ”

At this time, the staff officer knew that the real reason why Chen Ren was annoyed and irritable was not because of the destruction of those siege machinery, but because his pride as a famous general was trampled on.

As a strategist on the battlefield like a staff officer, he is naturally a creature that combines poison and wisdom.

So in a hurry, he quickly thought of a clever plan.

"The generals are like gods, they naturally know the truth of attacking the city and attacking the heart, the first confrontation, it seems that our siege machinery was destroyed and suffered a loss, in fact, we can build momentum!"

What kind of person is Chen Ren, when he heard the staff officer say this, how could he not understand the deep meaning and strategy in the staff officer's words, so his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "Good strategy, I don't know if you might let this heart-attacking words spread to Lushan County?"

The staff officer smiled proudly and leisurely: "General, there is no impermeable wall in this world. ”

When Chen Ren heard this, he also smiled, and then turned his eyes to the outside of the tent, and at the end of his gaze was a city wall standing tall in the wind and snow, and muttered to himself: "People's hearts are scattered, Ji Yu, how do I see you guarding this Lushan County?"

In this world, there is a pervasive thing, which is rumors.

It's like water, it's wind, it's air, it's aura.

But it has no roots and no source.

It's like the rumors that spread in Lushan County at this time, I don't know when and where.

In the first battle, Ji Yu led his cronies to raid, but failed to hurt the enemy at all, but he lost hundreds of people.

When this rumor spread in Lushan County, some people in the entire Lushan County were panicked.

Of course, the soldiers on the front line of the battlefield naturally disdain these rumors, after all, they have witnessed some of their brothers go through this war.

And just as these rumors were spreading in Lushan County, Ji Yu was leading his subordinates and soldiers to bury the martyrs who stayed on the battlefield and failed to return safely.

Of course, those disciples in the city within the city were naturally only temporarily buried here, and when they returned to Xichu from the Earth Spirit Secret Realm, Ji Yu would still take them home.

Standing in front of several lonely graves, listening to the judge's report on the rumors and influences of Lushan County.

Ji Yu sneered: "Don't ignore it, add fuel to the fire, let this rumor spread as fiercely as possible, which is also conducive to letting those ghosts in the counties of Luzhou County come out." ”

The judge asked with some puzzlement: "What does the general mean that we suppress the gossip in Lushan County, but do not prevent it from spreading to the counties?"

Ji Yu nodded and said, "In this way, it is conducive to catching ghosts!"

The judge suddenly realized, his eyes lit up, and he said, "The general is wise, but we are ignorant. ”

Ji Yu didn't pay any attention to the judge, but opened the wine jug and poured the wine in the jug in front of these lonely graves, as if he was doing some kind of sacred ritual, with a solemn and serious expression.

Fu Bang and others all know that Ji Yu is giving away the underground souls of the martyrs.

After pouring out the wine in the pot, Ji Yu suddenly said: "Regarding the strategy of this battle against the enemy, just remember the sixteen words, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and I disturb, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase!"
