Chapter VIII
Guo Jing looked at the place where Haiyun Fan turned into light and left, and was speechless for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a moment of agitation, four or five men came up to the platform and put on him things like white cloth and garlands made of wooden strips.
Then these people loudly announced to the lower levels that the gods had left us and returned to heaven. The thousands of people below held their breath and listened to the factions above take turns saying the same thing.
Finally, these people say that although the gods have returned to the embrace of the Immortal Heaven, he has left the Pope as his incarnation in the human world. Guo Jing didn't react for a while, but he saw that the people in the audience were kowtowing to him, chanting all kinds of slogans of unknown meaning.
"Kouhu!" Guo Jing looked at the people below who respectfully kowtowed to him, and the sadness in his heart was also diluted a lot.
The following people, there are lamas from Tibet, monks and Taoists from the Central Plains, shamans from the old forests of the Northeast, and many messy religious people, and now these people will actually recognize Guo Jing as their pope, which makes Guo Jing not feel that these people are not sober-minded, and how can they not feel funny?
However, those who witnessed the rainbow scene of Haiyun Sailing did not find it ridiculous. According to them, the various gods they believe in, or those ancestral heroic spirits, are the incarnations of the Immortal Heaven, all part of the Dao, and are just different projections of the Heavenly Dao in the human world. The so-called: red lotus lotus leaf white lotus, the three religions were originally one family.
"Well, even if you have a point, what do you want to do?" Guo Jing is not stupid, under Hai Yunfan's various teachings, he also understands the sinister hearts of people, and naturally knows that these people must have their own demands when they support him.
"Of course, it is to spread the teachings of our sect to the world, so that all living beings in the world will be bathed in the light of the gods."
Guo Jing was silent, and he carefully recalled what Mr. had said over the years that could be called doctrine. But it seems that Mr. has a deep malice towards all the gods and all the sects, and there are many inconsistencies in what he says.
At that time, when he pointed it out, the gentleman replied like this: Friend, if you look at everything from different angles, you will give different descriptions and get different answers, so just believe in your own heart, you yourself are your own god. All the words and descriptions of the others are nothing more than the conclusions of a blind man touching an elephant.
So, just trust me, okay? Guo Jing laughed.
"Then, you can do what you want, as long as you don't violate the laws and regulations of the tribe, I won't stop you."
The few people around him glanced at each other, nodded in unison, and said loudly: "Follow the Pope's decree!" β
Created a fait accompli? Guo Jing is not disgusted by this, although he does not feel happy. If it were a gentleman, what would he say? Probably laughed and said, "Whatever it is, as long as it's fun."
So, is this thing interesting? Guo Jing thinks that he doesn't know if this thing is interesting or not, he only knows that he is a little confused in his heart now.
Who am I? What am I going to do? What can I do?
He looked into his own heart and found the answer. I am Guo Jing, who is burdened with the revenge of killing my father, and what I want to do is to be like Wu Zixu back then, to lead the army to destroy the country where the enemy is located and kill all the enemies. This is a mission given to me by God and my ancestors, and it is something that must be accomplished in my life.
It's like what my husband often said: you can do one thing that must be done in life.
So, let me use my life to complete the matter of revenge, and I can also become a hero like Wu Zixu!
And before attacking the Jin Kingdom, there was one more thing to do, and he set his sights on the distance. There must only be one force in this grassland, so that it can have the strength to challenge the Jin country. So, Wang Han, please go and die.

After Temujin returned to his own territory, he ordered that all provocations from Wang Han's side should be tolerated and restrained. Gradually, the people of Wang Hanbu became more and more emboldened. In the autumn and winter, Sangkun sent thousands of men to loot several pastures and water sources on the border between the two forces, and captured hundreds of people on Temujin's side.
The rest of the tribe was furious and suggested sending troops to teach the arrogant Sankun a lesson. Temujin said, "Wang Han is my father-in-law, and Sangkun is my Anda, how can I send troops to attack them?" I'd better send someone to explain it to my father-in-law, and I think my father-in-law will do justice! β
When the generals heard this, they didn't think so, with a look of indignation on their faces, only Mu Huali and his son, Guo Jing and others had calm faces.
Temujin saw all this, and secretly came to the conclusion in his heart that the generals were incompetent. He laughed and said to his generals: "Now that the enemy is gone, there are only two big tribes left in this grassland, us and my father-in-law, and there is nothing to worry about anymore." Now is the time of autumn when the horses are fat, so let's go out hunting together. β
The crowd roared and said yes. Therefore, Temujin asked his subordinates near the king's tent to bring their own soldiers and horses and hunt in the endless steppe. A low horn sounded, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses gradually stretched out in the shape of a long snake on the ground, driving the surrounding prey together as much as possible.
The Mongols were well versed in hunting, and were not in a hurry to shoot their prey, but first drove them to exhaustion, and then the generals were ready to show their superb riding and archery skills in front of the Great Khan.
After a while, the warriors and masters of the tribe stepped forward to shoot arrows, and hit a lot of yellow sheep, wild deer and the like. Temujin watched as his generals and warriors scrambled to behave in front of him, and when he turned his head, he saw Guo Jing following behind with hundreds of men, but the horses they were carrying did not have a single prey on their backs.
After seeing that Guo Jing and the horses they were carrying did not have a single prey on their backs, Temujin asked, "Guo Jing, why don't you shoot a few prey?" β
"Hmph, I think he knows that his archery skills are not good, so he doesn't want to show his ugliness." Chagatai looked at the tall Guo Jing from the side, and his heart was full of jealousy. Even among the barbarians, Guo Jing, who is nearly two meters tall, can be regarded as a big man. Besides, he is only fifteen years old now, and there is still a lot of room for growth.
"Not really!" Hua Zheng's face turned red and said, "Brother Guo Jing's archery skills are very good!" β
"I think he can only take the lead with his armor on his head, and if you want to talk about archery, you still have to look at the warriors of our tribe." Chagatai sneered, "Otherwise, why wouldn't he open his bow and shoot his prey down?" β
Temujin looked at Chagatai, and then at Guo Jing, who had a calm face, and he thought about Guo Jing's performance in archery in previous battles, and he was always at the forefront of the race. So he tilted his head slightly, and asked Zhebei, who was following Guo Jing: "Zhebei, you are the marksman in our tribe, and you are also the master who taught Guo Jing archery, you tell me, Guo Jing's archery skills are really not good?" β
"Back to the Great Khan," Jebe replied on horseback, not wearing his trademark black armor, but wearing a woolen sweater, "Guo Jing's marksmanship is already better than mine." β
Hua Zheng proudly said to Chagatai: "Did you hear it, Zhebei said that Guo Jing's archery skills are very good!" β
Temujin laughed, "So, Guo Jing, tell me, is your archery good or bad?" β
"Great Khan, my archery skills have never been left behind." Guo Jing replied honestly.
"Then why aren't you going to shoot today?"
"Great Khan, my method of archery is a little different from that of ordinary people."
"Oh?" Temujin said with interest: "Then tell everyone how you shoot arrows." β
"This is how I shoot arrows," Guo Jing said eloquently to those around me who were either admiring or hostile, "When I shoot arrows, I use Master Jebe as the bow, Subutai Baihu as the bowstring, and myself as the arrow, as long as the Great Khan gives the order, I will shoot with the help of the bow body and bowstring to the place where the Great Khan is pointing." β
"Great Khan, this is how I shoot arrows."
Temujin glanced at the surprised Chagatai and asked, "Did the national teacher also teach you these truths?" Without waiting for Guo Jing to answer, he said to himself again: "Yes, except for the national teacher, no one else can say such a truth." β
Guo Jing jumped off his horse, half-knelt in front of Temujin's horse, raised his head and said loudly: "Great Khan, it is an insult to you that Wang Han and his son sent troops to invade our steppe and plunder our people. I beg the Great Khan not to tolerate them any longer, and to order a crusade against them. As long as the Great Khan gives the order, I am willing to be the first arrow to be shot! β
"Great Khan, we are also willing to attack Wang Han!" Some generals on the side also shouted, either out of righteous indignation, or they wanted to seize Wang Han's property, pastures and people, and they were willing to go to war with Wang Han.
"Hmph, who knows if you said something nice because you didn't know how to shoot arrows at all!" Chagatai has an extremely short temper, often whips his subordinates, and Guo Jing is almost completely opposite to two people, and at this time he couldn't help but say: "Besides, it's about to enter winter now, and even if you want to fight, you will have to wait until the spring of next year." β
Temujin's face sank, and he said, "If you want to defeat Wang Han, you must be fast, and if you want to be so fast, the Jin Kingdom will not have time to react at all." Now that winter is approaching, and the warriors of Wang Hanbu have scattered to various places to prepare for the winter, and our people are still gathered, it will be easy for us to defeat them. β
"But there has never been a man in our tribe who has relied on his tongue to obtain rewards and honors. Guo Jing, if you can shoot down the big eagle in the sky, I will make you the vanguard of the attack on Wang Hanbu, and reward you heavily. If you can't shoot it, I'm going to punish you severely. β
"Daddy, how did the eagle shoot down when it flew so high?" Hua Zheng said coquettishly: "Why don't you change to a deer, or an antelope?" β
Temujin was very doting on Hua Zheng, but he didn't pay attention to her at this time, he said to Guo Jing: "We Mongolians have always respected the strong, if you can shoot down the eagle in the sky, I will reward you with the golden knife I carry, and I will promise you a condition." After saying that, Temujin smiled at Hua Zheng.
Hua Zheng didn't know what he thought, and his face suddenly became a little blushing. Tow Lei on the side had already shouted, "A, I'm sure you can do it." β
Guo Jing was stunned for a moment by what Temujin said, then he stood up, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll shoot that eagle down." β
After saying that, Guo Jing took off an inconspicuous-looking bow from the back of his mount. This bow was given to him by his husband on his twelfth birthday, and the body and string of the bow are made of unknown materials, and the strength is incredible. A year ago, he had a hard time drawing the bow, so when he was in battle, he fought hand-to-hand by himself and let Tebabe shoot arrows from the side to cover him.
But now, he has enough ability!
Lift your breath and concentrate your mind.
Look up and shoot the wolf.
The bow is like a full moon, and the arrow is like a meteor.
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people, a heavy arrow shot out, through the belly of a gray eagle hovering in the sky, and then through its back. A few eagle feathers were scattered, and the gray eagle had already died before it could scream. After the heavy arrow killed one of the eagle owls, it continued to castrate, and plunged into the abdomen of the other eagle, shooting the eagle eagle down.
Condor shooters are already scarce, and those who can kill two birds with one stone will only appear in legends. When the surrounding people saw such a scene, no matter which tribe it was, they couldn't help but cheer loudly.
After the cheers in the crowd subsided, Temujin drove the horse to hit Guo Jing's side, untied the golden knife hanging from his waist and handed it to Guo Jing, and said with a smile: "Good boy, this golden knife belongs to you." You can also make a request to me, say, whatever you want, as long as I can give it to you, you can ask for it, even if it is my daughter Hua Zheng, I can also promise you. With that, Temujin burst out laughing.
Guo Jing was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Great Khan, the people of Jin have a grudge against me to kill my father." I hope that after the Great Khan unifies the steppe, he will let me go south to attack the Jin Kingdom to avenge the murder of my father! β
"Is that what you're asking for?" Temujin looked at Hua Zheng, who was full of displeasure, and Emperor Guo Jing said: "I can meet your request, but beyond this request, I have decided to reward you with my most precious treasure." β
As he spoke, Temujin raised Hua Zheng's hand and said to the people around him: "This is my daughter Hua Zheng, the most beautiful pearl in this grassland, I have decided to marry her to our warriors, our eagle - Guo Jing, are you not convinced?" β
"Oh! Golden knife horse Guo Jing! The people around him cheered again.
Guo Jing was a little overwhelmed, although he was fifteen years old, he didn't know much about male and female **** things. He didn't know if he loved Hua Zheng or not, no, it should be said that he had never thought of loving a girl before. However, Tuo Lei had already rushed forward, hugged Guo Jing, and said with a smile on his face: "An A, congratulations!" β
Congratulations? Guo Jing's gaze crossed Tuo Lei's shoulder and looked into the distance. In that direction, there are passes and cities on the Central Plains. In the story of Mr., there are countless heroes and heroes.
And I, can I knock them down one by one?
He suddenly felt that this was indeed a thing to congratulate.
The mode of war on the steppe is very different from that of the Central Plains. Here, there are no dense cities and dangerous passes, and there are no various rugged landforms. To fight a war here, what is needed is a tactic similar to that of the navy. Well, it looks like a Japanese person said that.
Temujin suddenly sent troops in the autumn and winter, and Wang Han was caught off guard. In the previous half a year or so, Tiemu had been tolerant and retreating from Wang Hanfang's provocations, who would have thought that he would send troops when winter was approaching? At least Wang Han and Sang Chao didn't expect it, and Wanyan Honglie didn't expect it either.
The warriors of Wang Hanbu had already dispersed to various pastures to prepare for the winter, and they could not gather again in a short time. Therefore, Temujin easily defeated and annexed the large and small tribes along the way, and led 30,000 troops to approach Wang Han's headquarters. In order to defeat Wang Han as quickly as possible, 30,000 men was already the largest army that Temujin could draw, and his idea was to finish the battle in one battle. It is to destroy the main force of Wang Hanbu in a decisive battle and completely eliminate them.
In terms of his grasp of timing and the courage to make a desperate move, Temujin was considered a first-class military strategist. Coupled with the thousand-household system he established and things like non-commissioned officer training, it is not far behind the heroes and heroes of the Central Plains.
Seize the most favorable opportunity, and then use your strongest strength to hit the opponent's most critical link? Guo Jing was deeply touched by Temujin's way of using soldiers, and he felt that it seemed to have similarities with martial arts. Before he could compare the two any more, a low horn sounded in the middle behind him, pulling him back from his contemplation.
Wang Han had already come out of the nest, and all the adult men in his headquarters were armed and thrown into this battlefield.
Nearly 100,000 troops from both sides packed the grassland within a radius of about ten miles, and groups of cavalry kept clashing at the edge of the main formations of both sides. The short and bloody skirmishes did not stop for a moment. Although Wang Han was numerous, most of them were slaves and other unskilled warriors in the tribe, while Temujin was small in number, but all of them were the most elite warriors. Therefore, Temujin's side gradually took the initiative on the battlefield.
Wang rarely had the upper hand in a small-scale confrontation, so he urged the army and the whole division pressed on. He regretted and feared it now, and if he had known that there would be such consequences, he would not have let his generals provoke Temujin. Now he couldn't go if he wanted to, because the women and children of the tribe were behind, and if they were lost to Temujin, his men would surrender with them.
But he didn't know that even if he wanted to keep the peace, it would be impossible. When did two powerful tribes on the steppe stand side by side for a long time?
The sound of drums and trumpets continued to sound, and the cavalry on both sides controlled the horses and galloped in small steps, approaching each other.
Guo Jing didn't need to control the soldiers under his command by himself, that was the matter of Jebe and Subutai. He was now at the forefront of the army, clad in crimson armor and riding on the tallest horse. No matter which side you are on or off, you can see him very clearly.
Behind him, two horses, a bare-headed warrior **** with a bare head on his upper body, with a big flag in his arms. The flag was waving in the wind, and a strange creature was faintly visible on the red flag.
The distance between the two sides has reached the point where they can clearly see each other.
Now is the time! Guo Jing raised his spear high and roared angrily: "Attack! β
With both feet on the horse's belly, the well-trained horses galloped out of the formation like sharp arrows. Behind him were the warriors of his own tribe and the soldiers of the other tribes who had been temporarily reinforced to him.
Wang Han rode on his horse, looked at the red figure on the opposite side, and opened his mouth in surprise. Beside him, Sankun shouted, "This man is a fool, kill him!" β
There was no need for Sang Kun to speak, a team of 100 people had already rushed out of Wang Hanbu's large array, and they were about to surround Guo Jing and kill him. However, only the cold light of steel flashed, and the crimson figure had already rushed out of the hundred-man team, leaving only a ground of stumps and wailing wounded people all over the ground.
"There are only a hundred people, if you want to kill me Guo Jing, it's not enough to be in class!" The young man's angry shouts rang out on the battlefield.
He didn't even stop to cut off the enemy's head, and continued to charge.
"Quick, quick, quick!" Behind him, Jebe and Subutai and other hundreds of households were desperately urging the soldiers under their command to keep up with the figure of the main general. The already routed hundred-man team couldn't stop them for even a moment's time. , and yet they still feel that they are not fast enough. Right in front of them, the dense soldiers of Wang Hanbu had already surrounded their main general.
Countless arrows shot at Guo Jing, and at the same time, countless people with red eyes and howled towards him. Slashes, spears, sticks, countless attacks in waves, as if they were coming at him at the same time.
Guo Jing's body was already full of dense arrows, making him look like a porcupine standing upright. His speed had been slowed down by the warriors before him, his momentum had waned, his strength had run out, he ..........
Sangkun waved his arms wildly and shouted, "It's now, kill him, kill him!" Whoever kills this fellow, I reward him with a hundred sheep! β
The roar of the strange beast sounded from the center of the encirclement, like a tiger's roar, like a dragon's groan, and with this roar was countless powerful tornadoes formed by the fiercest and most violent forces.
In an instant, hundreds of people were killed in the disaster-like blow. The rest of the people were demoralized, many of them looked like they had seen a ghost, and many even threw away their blades and fled the battlefield screaming incomprehensible words.
A long time ago, someone once said to him, when you zoom in on your moves in the future, you must think of a move name that is both majestic and loud.
"Why?"
"Because if there is a name of the bully, the power of the trick will also increase!"
Therefore, this big move that can hit the morale of the other party and make the other party shake was named by Guo Jing.
"Lu Bu among the people!"
