Chapter 219 Deliberations, uprooting weeping willows
Lightning and thunder, fierce storms, the army escorted tens of thousands of prisoners in the wind and rain, pushed cartloads of heavy booty, and left deep ruts in the muddy soil to return to Xiangyi.
In just one hour's journey, because of the sudden wind and rain, the army walked for two hours before returning to Xiangyi.
Zhang Liao and Jia Xu have both stepped into the strength of the early stage of the great master, but the wind and rain have no effect on the two, and they turned their heads to look at the wet Tai Shi Ci and the others, and said: "Tai Shi Ci took the army back to the camp to rest, and asked the gang leader to boil some ginger soup for the brothers to drive away the cold." ”
Tai Shi Ci wiped the rain off his face, hugged his fists and said, "Obey." ”
Zhang Liao turned his head to Jia Xu and said with a smile: "Strategist, I was fortunate to have a hard night last night, so it's better to go back to the room to rest first, and then we will talk about the next plan in the evening." ”
Jia Xu noticed Zhang Liao's red eyes, knowing how much pressure Zhang Liao had in his heart these days, even with his great grandmaster's strength, he couldn't bear it, nodded and said, "Just according to what the governor said." ”
At night, Zhang Liao woke up, lit the candlestick, put on his clothes, opened the window, and the heavy rain outside the house was still falling, and the rain fell down the eaves to form a rain curtain, which was somewhat mysterious and beautiful.
After putting on his clothes, Zhang Liao took a bite of the meal that had already been cold, and then rushed to the lobby, and said to the subordinate who was serving tea and pouring water: "Go to the general's division, Tai Shici and others are invited." ”
"Obey."
After a while, Jia Xu and the others arrived in the lobby in turn, bowed their hands slightly at Zhang Liao, and said, "Governor." ”
Zhang Liao and the others arrived, made a gesture of please, and said, "Everyone, please sit down and serve tea." ”
"Tsedudu." Everyone bowed their hands.
As soon as everyone sat down, someone immediately came to serve tea, and Zhang Liao saw everyone taking a sip of tea and said: "Tai Shici, tell everyone about our battle damage and harvest last night." ”
"No." Tai Shi Ci hugged his fists. "In the battle the night before, our army suffered more than 4,000 casualties, killed 40,000 enemies, captured more than 70,000 people, more than 200,000 stones of grain and grass, collected about 80,000 sets of various types of armor, and other loose pieces, totaling 300,000 taels of gold, silver and jewelry, and about 10,000 barbarian mounts."
As he spoke, he took out a list from his sleeve, handed it to Zhang Liao, and said, "Governor, this is all the list, please check it." ”
Zhang Liao took the list and didn't look at it, put it next to his hand, and said, "According to the rules set by His Majesty, the third layer will be issued to the whole army as a reward.
Select some of the weapons in these barbarians and send them back to the rear, so that the craftsmen of Daqian can improve the deficiencies of our army's weapons. ”
Tai Shi Ci and the others are all the rules of the Chu Daqian army, as long as the army wins the battle and divides the spoils of three layers equally, only Lu Junyi and a few people don't know this rule, they are immediately overjoyed when they hear this, and they hug their fists and say: "Xie Dudu." ”
Zhang Liao turned his head to look at Jia Xu and said, "Military Division, can the members of the Digui under your command have news of the tribal alliance come back?" ”
Jia Xu hugged his fists and said: "Back to the governor, according to the news from the local regulations, the tribal alliance has retreated thirty miles to rest, and depending on their situation, they are ready to continue to fight with us." ”
A cold light flashed in Zhang Liao's eyes, and he sneered: "Since they are so anxious to find death, we are willing to be good people to the end, and we are willing to give them a ride." ”
When Zhang Liao convened the generals to discuss the matter, he did not call Batge, so he was not afraid of the news leaking, and said: "Strategist, I don't know when your plague will be able to play a role?" Spread among those barbarian armies? ”
Jia Xu's eyes were cold, he touched his beard and said with a smile: "Originally, it would take ten days for my plague to break out in the tribal army, maybe the heavens can't see the actions of those barbarians, and it rained heavily, so five days later, the plague will definitely break out." ”
Looking at Jia Xu's kind face, he said in his heart: "It is worthy of the title of a poisoner set by His Majesty, once he makes a move, it will be an earth-shattering deal." ”
Although everyone had known about the plague in Jia Xubu for a long time, they were still terrified when they heard this conversation, especially since each of them knew the cruelty of the plague whether they had heard it in the past or experienced it themselves.
Wu Song didn't care about the life and death of those barbarians, once it spread, whether it was Xiangyi near or other places, innocent civilians could be contaminated with the plague, and he couldn't bear it in his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, he clenched his fists and said: "Strategist, Du Du, if the plague only breaks out in the barbarian army, even if all of them die and their subordinates will not hesitate at all, but the most frightening thing about the plague is its contagion.
Therefore, the subordinates are worried... The subordinates feared that the plague would not only break out among the barbarian army, but also infect the territory of our Great Qian. ”
Tai Shi Ci and the others had already thought of this problem, and they planned to talk to Zhang Liao in private to persuade Zhang Liao to prepare for the outbreak of the plague in Xiangyi in advance, but they didn't expect Wu Song to dare to bring it up in front of everyone, and everyone was afraid that Jia Xu would blame Wu Song, so they hurriedly echoed: "Military advisor, we have the same opinion as Wu Song's brothers, if the plague breaks out in Xiangyi, it is likely to affect our army." ”
Zhang Liao and Jia Xu glanced at each other and laughed, Jia Xu looked at Zhang Liao and said with a smile: "The governor bet this time that Wenhe won, right?" ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't understand what was going on between Zhang Liao and Jia Xu, and asked, "Dudu, what did the military advisor mean?" ”
Zhang Liao explained: "Actually, after the plague was inflicted, the military adviser talked to me, saying that you would definitely persuade us to pay attention to the spread of the plague, and said that the soldiers of our army are all righteous people, but the difference between the two is very three days, or one day.
The military advisor thinks that with your character for a day at most, he will persuade us to be careful about implicating innocent people.
And I think you are used to seeing mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, and it will take at least three days to talk about this matter, but I didn't expect you to bring it up before you arrived for a day. ”
When everyone heard this, they didn't know where they were, but the careful thinking of themselves and others had already made Zhang Liao and the others guess, and at the same time hugged their fists and said: "I still hope that the governor and the military advisor will atone for their sins, we really can't bear to let the people be hurt by this." ”
Zhang Liao waved his hand and said: "You don't have to blame yourself, the problem you considered, I and the military advisor have already solved it, and now all the cities have placed antidote in the wells in the city, even if there are one or two people infected with the plague, they can be guaranteed to be safe." ”
Everyone was pleasantly surprised when they heard this, and finally let go of the worries in their hearts, and hugged their fists and said: "Governor, the military advisor is wise." ”
Zhang Liao looked at the heavy rain outside the door, and muttered, "I don't know when this heavy rain will be?" ”
Everyone in the lobby was a clear-eyed master, and naturally they all heard this, and Lu Junyi immediately said: "Governor Yudu, my subordinates have inquired about the old people in the city, and with their experience of living here for many years, it is said that this heavy rain will fall for at least seven days.
According to them, there was a similar drought in Xiangyi ten years ago, followed by a torrential rain for a month and a half, causing the Lanjiang River to burst its embankment 30 miles away. ”
Zhang Liao's heart moved, if according to Lu Junyi's investigation, maybe the Lanjiang River might break the embankment again, thought for a moment, and said, "Lu Junyi listens to the order." ”
Hearing this, Lu Junyi hurriedly got up and clasped his fists, and said, "My subordinates are here." ”
"Order you to take 3,000 dinosaur armies and 1,000 ice and snow war bear troops to the upper reaches of the Lanjiang River to intercept the dam, and wait for the military order of the governor of Pontus when necessary, and dig up the flooded barbarian army of the Lanjiang River." Zhang Liao said in a cold voice.
"Subordinates obey orders." Lu Junyi hurriedly hugged his fists.
Jia Xu looked at Zhang Liao and couldn't help but sigh at Wang Jun's accuracy in employing people, with his intelligence, he naturally knew that Zhang Liao was afraid that the plague would not work, so he prepared the back hand, and said: "The governor is wise." ”
Zhang Liao looked at Jia Xu apologetically, and hurriedly explained: "I also hope that the military advisor will blame Wen Yuan's self-assertion, after all, those barbarian methods are too weird, and Wen Yuan is afraid that they will use some means that we don't understand to solve the plague under the military division." ”
Jia Xu waved his hand and said, "The governor doesn't have to be like this, since His Majesty has appointed you as the governor of the three armies, the actions of the army should be dominated by the governor." ”
.........
Seven days later, it was still rainy near Xiangyi, but the stormy weather had passed, and now it was drizzling.
At this time, Xiangyi can already be a battlefield, because the outside of the city is full of murderous barbarian troops who have come to take revenge.
On the second day of the generals' deliberations, the plague that Jia Xu secretly put finally broke out among the barbarian army, and every day the barbarian army was infected with the plague, and the death toll soared from a few to hundreds.
According to the local planning personnel, half of the barbarian army has been infected with the plague, so the generals think that there is no need to send troops again, and it will only take a few days for the barbarian army to die.
However, from the fourth day onwards, the death toll of the barbarian army decreased massively, and from 1,000 deaths to single digits.
On the sixth day, there were no deaths, and the plague in the camp was completely eliminated, but according to the exploration of the horses, nearly 30,000 people of the barbarian army disappeared without a trace.
"Knock, knock, knock, knock,"
"Woo, woo."
The sound of war drums shook the sky, the sound of trumpets spread throughout the four fields, and nearly 3,000 lion cavalry came out of the tribal army, led by a small tribal leader, Salila, riding a snake-scaled armored ox, holding a one-horned bronze man, with a murderous roar, and said: "I am Sarila, despicable dry man, who dares to fight with me?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the generals who were watching the battle at the head of the city were furious, and Luda lifted the crescent shovel, hugged his fists and said: "Governor, your subordinates please fight." ”
Zhang Liao glanced at Luda, nodded and said, "However, Captain Luda still wants to be careful, these barbarians must have strange skills in their hands." ”
"Thank you for your concern, in the past, Luda made a small contribution, and His Majesty gave me a strange art, and today these barbarians dare not underestimate me."
After finishing speaking, Ruda carried the crescent shovel and ordered the three thousand earth barbarian bull army out of the city, a hundred steps away from Sarila, Luda pointed at Sarila and laughed, and said: "I thought it was a hero, but it was just a skinny monkey, could it be that there was no one in your tribal alliance, so you let this skinny monkey fight." ”
The soldiers who followed Luda in battle behind him immediately burst out laughing when they heard this.
Sarila almost didn't die of anger when she heard this, if it weren't for the fact that these despicable cadres secretly got the plague, they could only survive by sacrificing the plague in the camp by sacrificing the ancient Luo demon god alive, and they wouldn't have let the ancient Luo demon god extract half of the essence and spirit, otherwise with his Sarila's strength, he would not have become such a skinny bone.
He said angrily: "Damn dry people, if it weren't for the plague that you waited for to harm us warriors of the Great God of Guluo, how could this leader, as one of the top 100 warriors of the 100,000 mountains, become this ghost." ”
Luda was shocked, he didn't think that the plague they had under would be discovered by these barbarians, but he couldn't admit it, otherwise he would definitely let the big cadres fall into the target of the public, and shouted: "Fart, it's obvious that you barbarians poison people with the plague, but they slander our army for releasing the plague, it's really shameless." ”
"Wow, it's too angry, look at the move." Seeing that she couldn't tell Ruda, Sarila rushed over with a snake scale armor.
Ruda was not afraid, slapped the earth bull sitting down to meet the battle, and shouted: "Look at the shovel, the cloak is dancing." ”
"One of a kind."
Because both of them use heavy weapons, their moves are wide open and close, which makes the blood of the soldiers watching the battle boil.
Because Sarila lost too much spirit, which led to a sharp drop in strength, he let Ruda suppress it in two moves, knowing that if he continued to fight like this without five moves, he would let Luda kill, so he immediately made a false move, and said: "Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger." ”
Ruda was defenseless for a while, and when he saw the one-horned bronze man stabbing directly at the door, he immediately raised the crescent shovel to block it, and he was really deceived by Sarila, and after blocking it, he found that he didn't have much strength.
Sarila took advantage of her strength to break away from Ruda, and as soon as she took off the clothes on her body, she saw that Sarila had a purple-brown scorpion tattooed on the upper half of her body, her arms were double pincers, the scorpion body was on her chest, and the scorpion tail was dragged from her waist to her back, and she shouted: "Praise the ancient Luo demon god, the power of the totem, open." ”
When the words fell, the scorpion tattoo on Sarila's body suddenly released a brilliant light, only to see the scorpion tattoo suddenly peel off and fall to the ground, turning into a scorpion that was half a body taller than Sarila, standing behind Sarila and rising, and said: "Despicable dry man, we will fight again." ”
Luda also wanted to take advantage of the power of the totem, rushed forward, and said, "Kill, the wind blows." ”
"Alone."
"Bell"
The weapons of the two collided again, and Ruda found that this totem had actually improved Sarila's strength by three percent, and suddenly felt a whistling wind above his head.
Hurriedly bent down, a strand of hair fell from his ear, Ruda tilted his head slightly and saw that it was the scorpion behind Sarila who made a move, he didn't expect that this totem could not only improve his strength, but he would use his double pincers to cooperate with Sarela's attack, picked up the crescent shovel and waved, smashed open the scorpion pincers that were cut again, and shouted: "Wind and waves." ”
The amazing divine power knocked Sarilla back a few steps, Sarila looked at Ruda in surprise and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a hand, but it still can't change your fate, kill, scorpion strike." ”
In an instant, Sarila and the totem behind them cooperated, attacking Ruda at the same time, as the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention the battlefield fighting, so Ruda gradually has a tendency to lose.
Ruda stared at Sarila and shouted, "Upside down the weeping willows." ”
In the surprised eyes of everyone, Sarila and the scorpion behind him became a lonely willow tree, Ruda jumped off the back of the cow and walked over, spit on the foam, tied up the horse, bent down to hug the willow tree, the muscles of the whole body bulged, and shouted: "Give me, get up." ”
Seeing the willow tree being pulled out of the soil bit by bit, Ruda exerted his strength again, and finally pulled out the willow tree and threw it aside.
Then the willow tree reverted to Sarela, and a white beam of light fell on Ruda, and everyone realized that the Sareira at the end had died.
"Bell, bell, bell." Zhang Liao, who was on the tower of the city, found the white light cast on Luda, and was afraid that it was Sarila's trick to end up together, so he hurriedly struck the gong and called Jin to withdraw his troops.
