Chapter 21: Carry it away

"Niu Shan, come with me." After the team was assembled, Liu Hao named Niu Shan.

After a few days of getting along, the team members got to know Liu Hao a little. One of them is that he doesn't do anything untargeted.

Niu Shan, who was following Liu Hao, couldn't help but ponder in his heart. He wanted to guess the purpose of this trip, and then shorten the distance with Liu Hao.

"Carry it away!" Liu Hao, who stopped, pointed to the spirit tablet and said.

"Captain, you're not kidding! This thing weighs at least a thousand pounds, and I can't carry it. "Niu Shan's head shook like a rattle.

"You have to use your brain to do things, who told you to carry it all away? Don't have the pedestal at the bottom, don't want the decoration on the top of the head, just the body of the monument. I calculated, except for these two things, you can still carry the two hundred pounds of monument. ”

"Captain, is it really okay to do this? The monument was erected here by the court team. The purpose of standing here is to prevent evil spirits from taking advantage of the spirits of the dead. What if we destroy it and something happens! ”

"If you don't resist it, it won't happen? Are all twenty-four of you blind? If the spirit monument is intact, where did the army of evil spirits come from for three consecutive nights? Do they dare to step within a five-kilometer radius of the Spirit Monument? ”

"Seems to be! Then I'll do it! Niu smiled, picked up the tomahawk in his hand and smashed it at the pedestal. Originally, he used an iron rod, but later in actual combat, he found that he liked the tomahawk more and more.

The sound of "dangdangdang" sounded one after another. The team members standing in the distance looked in the direction from which the voice came. They were curious, what was the captain doing with Niu Shan? Is it possible to erect a monument in the cemetery in advance?

A quarter of an hour later, Liu Hao walked back briskly with his hands behind his back. As for Niu Shan, it was the stele body that carried the spirit tablet on its back and followed with great difficulty, and the speed was reduced to one-third of the usual speed.

"Sloppy, you and Niu Shan change every half hour. Your team is temporarily led by Dong Ming and Zhong Qiang. When Niu Shan appeared in front of everyone, Liu Hao gave an order to Ma Huo.

"No!" Ma Hu did not ask the reason, nor did he hesitate, but unswervingly carried out Liu Hao's order.

"Set off, the target is the big and small Shu Mountain." Liu Hao waved his hand and led everyone to the destination of the task.

As soon as he left, someone over there reported the news to Gong Yong.

"What do you say? He demolished the spiritual monument in the cemetery and let people carry the monument to the Big and Small Shu Mountains? Gong Yong looked surprised.

"Back to my lord, this is what the little one saw with his own eyes." The subordinate did not add his own inference, but only replied truthfully.

"So what do you think was his motivation for doing this? Is it comfort in their hearts or do they really think that the spirit monument can protect them and allow them to complete the task they are assigned? Gong Yong's left hand was placed on his lap, and the fingers of his right hand rhythmically tapped the table.

"In my humble opinion, the latter is more likely." The subordinates did not dare to hide it, and said the answer in their hearts.

"Oh? Even if you think so, then he must think so. It's a pity that he is destined to be this time..."Gong Yong didn't finish the next words, even if it was his own person, he couldn't let him know his true thoughts. Speculation is speculation after all, and without evidence, you have nothing to do with yourself.

The Great and Small Shu Mountains are located thirty kilometers west of Luyang City. The reason why it is called Big and Small Shu Mountain is because the two peaks, one large and one small, are close to each other and stand alone on the plain.

The two peaks are one high and one low, the high one is more than 300 meters, the low one is more than 100 meters, and there is a mountain col flat in the middle.

"Captain, will the space-time transit station of the spirit world really be in the Great and Small Shu Mountains? This location doesn't seem to be the right one! Dong Ming took the opportunity to repair on the spot, walked to Liu Hao's side, and raised his doubts to him.

"Tell me what you think." Liu Hao showed Dong Ming an encouraging smile.

"No. First of all, although the big and small Shu Mountains are mountains, they are not steep, not dangerous or secluded, and the radius is only about ten miles, which is not as good as the cemetery of our Luyang City! The small size of the area means that there is little room for manoeuvre, so no one who knows a little about tactics will choose this place as a strategic location.

Secondly, it is surrounded by plains, where there are two peaks. It seems to be in control of the commanding heights, but in fact, why is it not surrounded by us? If they had attacked with fire, would they not have been burned alive in disgrace?

Finally, and most importantly, it's too close to Luyang City. According to what I've read in the past, if there is a space-time transit station near the city, this level of calamity is definitely not something that one squadron can fight against, and at least one general team needs to be able to compete with it. If you want to destroy it, you can't do it without three corps.

Captain, a squadron has twenty squadrons, a brigade has ten squadrons, and a general squadron has ten squadrons. According to this inference, I think the inference of the Zhenling Court is correct, and it is impossible for the time and space transfer station of the spirit world to exist in the Great and Small Shu Mountains. ”

After listening to Dong Ming's analysis, Liu Hao closed his eyes, waited for a while, opened his eyes and said, "This is normal thinking, what if you go the other way?" Or who can be sure that the space-time transit station exists when it is not visible to everyone?

I'm glad you read the material at your leisure. But are you missing something while reading? Under what circumstances or when did the corps enter a state of war? Was it before the advent of space-time brokers? Or is it in between? Or is it after?

The node where the total team appears is important. To ignore it is to ignore the core of the material. I'm not sure that there must be a space-time transit station in the spirit world in the Great and Small Shu Mountains. But I promise that I will try to minimize our needless sacrifices as much as possible.

Whether it is a task assigned from above or a trap set by someone with a heart, we must do our best to complete this task. This mission is the first of our detachments after they were formed. If we do a good job, our morale, our cohesion, and our future will all develop in a good direction. On the contrary, as soon as we are in a detachment, there will be dismemberment, demoralization, and even the final disintegration.

So, I want you to keep what you just said to me in your stomach. At the same time, I also praise you, it's good to have ideas. ”

"Captain, I made a note of it. Rest assured, I'll be rotting what I said to you in my stomach. Liu Hao's trust in Dong Ming made him sincerely happy. Being recognized and trusted by the captain is not something that anyone can do.

With a "boom", the body of the spirit tablet was sloppily put on the ground. Even if the two of them took turns carrying the monument, they could not withstand the rapid march of dozens of kilometers. Moreover, with the consumption of physical energy, they have changed from half an hour before to every five minutes now.

Sweaty Niu Shan and Ma Hu sat on the ground with a tired face, gasping for breath. They don't have time to speak now, and they don't have any other thoughts in their minds, only one idea of when they will be able to reach the Big and Small Shu Mountains.

"Did you feel anything?" Liu Hao walked over, squatted down and asked.

"Tired." Niu Shan and Ma Hu replied in unison.

"What else?"

Niu Shan and Ma Sloppy stared, feeling that they didn't feel anything for a long time.

"Okay, I got it. Ten minutes later, the team will be gone, and you should hurry up and rest. Liu Hao's face was slightly disappointed.
