Chapter 244: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
Shu County, Shu Wangfu.
Yuan Wuyu's small courtyard finally lost its former peace, and at this time, no less than ten generals all gathered here, and these people who cultivated to the lowest level were all real spirit realm doubles, and they were the real pillars of Shu County.
It's just that at this moment, all of them have a haze on their faces.
The King of Shu finally appeared, no longer hiding in the back hall of Yuan Wuyu's hut, looking at the fierce generals under his command, the King of Shu still asked calmly: "Everyone, what do you think of this matter." ”
A few people wanted to speak and stopped, and after opening their mouths a few times in vain and not knowing what to say, they simply looked at Yuan Wuyu on the side like everyone else.
The King of Shu waited for a long time, and finally looked at this strategist he trusted and relied on the most.
After being stared at by the King of Shu for a long time, Yuan Wuyu slowly spoke: "This battle is not easy to fight. ”
At this moment, if anyone on the scene said this, I believe that other people would not be able to help but kill him directly, but when Yuan Wuyu said the nonsense in this nonsense, the worry in people's eyes became stronger. Although Yuan Wuyu does like to go around in circles when he speaks on weekdays, he rarely talks nonsense like now.
The King of Shu thought about it, but suddenly smiled and said: "It's not easy to fight, but there is still a chance to fight, right?"
Yuan Wuyu nodded without hesitation and said, "Well, it's hard to fight, but at least it can be beaten." ”
After hearing this, the generals breathed a sigh of relief. Although the situation in front of them has reached a rather terrible level, as high-ranking generals in Shu County, these people's demands for military merit and honor are quite strong. The most important point is that if the Shu army directly withdrew its troops because of the participation of King Cheng and King Han, not to mention the loss of a qiē before, it would be impossible to hang on face at all.
Everyone waited for a long time, they had become accustomed to Yuan Wuyu's state when he was thinking about the plan, and even had the experience of saying a word for a whole day in the past and then continuing to think.
Fortunately, this time Yuan Wuyu did not let everyone wait for a day, and after thinking about it, he said: "In the next few days, don't go to war." ”
"What?" Hearing Yuan Wuyu's words, all the generals were shocked: "Didn't you just say that you can fight, why don't you start a war again." ”
"King Cheng and King Han are not qualified and strong enough to share the Nanban Realm with us. Yuan Wuyu whispered.
"That's right, that's what it means, the two little county kings, it's good to barely hold on to their own territory, and they dare to come to the tiger's mouth to grab food. The generals were red and said menacingly.
Among the three counties in the southwest, the strength of the king of Shu is the strongest, and the strength of the other two county kings is inferior after all, and it is precisely because of this that these generals of the Shu army will be so indignant after learning that they dare to participate in the southern battlefield when they become kings. In their opinion, it is necessary to beat them up to relieve their hatred.
And just when they were excitedly denouncing the other two county kings, Yuan Wuyu said again: "But now the entrance to the Xuan Realm has not been discovered, even if we find it first, the secret will definitely not be able to be kept, and it will inevitably attract the rest of the two counties at that time, and we have consumed too much in the battle of the Southern Barbarians, and it is impossible to invest many more troops, so what we can do is just to save our troops as much as possible until we find the entrance to the magic circle, and then go in with them to fight." ”
This time, even the King of Shu was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at Yuan Wuyu: "Sir, what are you going to do, fight or not, you give us an accurate statement, I will listen to what you say." ”
Everyone already has a headache, and the problem of wanting to talk in circles can kill people in a hurry every time something big happens. But I have to admit that the plans he made turned out to be extremely correct in the end, so they can only wait.
Yuan Wufu smiled, and said with gloomy eyes: "It's just that King Cheng wants to come and grab the benefits, he King Han only has that bit of strength and dares to be dishonest, doesn't he want to rob, then let him rob, let him enter the Xuan Realm, let him see the benefits, let him think that he can have a chance to turn over, and then ......"
Speaking of this, Yuan Wuyu's face showed a little disdain, and he said lightly: "Then, we can go and raid his lair." Lord Shu, don't you always think that there should have been only seven counties in Zhongyuan. ”
After listening to Yuan Wuyu's narration, everyone present felt that their scalps were numb, and cold sweat couldn't help but flow down.
The smiling old man in front of him, how did his brain grow, and he could have so many bad ideas. Especially the King of Shu, although he and Yuan Wuyu have known each other for hundreds of years, he still feels that he can't see through this old friend.
The other generals didn't know, but the King of Shu knew very well that after the battle of Phoenix accidentally damaged a large number of Shu troops, Yuan Wuyu temporarily planned and revised the plan for the southern war, in fact, the news of the discovery of the Xuan Realm in the south was spread by Yuan Wuyu himself. Before, the King of Shu still had doubts, but now he finally understands.
This trick is really used in the essence. No wonder Yuan Wuyu never let these battle-hardened veterans go to Nanban, it turned out that there were more important battles waiting for them. Compared with the conquest of the Xuan Realm, all the Central Plains monks still like to pacify the other forces in the Central Plains.
Seeing that the people around him had completely discarded the resentment and incomprehension just now, and all of them began to discuss with each other with great interest, Yuan Wuyu coughed, took out a jade map, and said with a smile: "Then, let's talk about how to attack Changyun County." ”
In the palace of the King of Shu, the dark clouds of gloom gradually dispersed, and laughter came out of the magical hut.
Following the king of Shu's conquest of Nanban, Nanban temporarily stabilized for a year, Nanban, a place that seemed to be absolutely a deserted place in the eyes of the vast majority of Central Plains monks, once again became the focus of people's attention.
According to rumors, even now even among the Central Plains Dragon Capital, there are bigwigs who have come to investigate.
The Battle of the Three Kings is something that is rarely seen in the Central Plains, and only in a place like Nanban, which is actually completely outside the Central Plains, will a battle of this scale break out.
If it is in the Central Plains, a big war involves three county kings sending troops together, such a war is almost related to the peace of the entire Central Plains, even if it is a big man with an attitude of not caring about himself, he will participate in it with some caution.
But in Nanban, such a thing does not happen, and everyone is watching a play here.
Li Mingyang's heart was actually very uncomfortable, although the southern monk had already disappointed him, but when he stepped on the land again, he couldn't help but feel stunned.
The south is no longer the south of the past, in the past year or so, Li Mingyang has spent most of his time wandering in many secluded places in the south, the south is different from the Central Plains, the south will vigorously clear the Hundred Ghost Village around the city of monks or places where a large number of people live, so Li Mingyang could only go to those remote areas to exterminate the Hundred Ghost Village, and collect soul stones and souls for the wheel. As long as the re-summoned true ghost Li Mingyang does not control them and sends them back to the underworld, it will be called a living soul.
However, this time when he came back, Li Mingyang's task was no longer to collect living souls, but to find the earth spirit realm. According to the news from Xie Bi'an, the wheel is about to be unable to hold on, and if there is no more earth spirit tablet for him to take back to expand the territory, basically his Yama will come to an end.
So this time, Li Mingyang will follow King Cheng's southern expeditionary army back to the south regardless of his safety.
There were 30,000 Xiliang troops by his side, and this was the first time that Li Mingyang had acted with so many and such elite monks. It's just that in the ranks of the Xiliang Army, no one knows who he is, and even the three thousand Xiliang monks who Li Hong confessed don't know who Li Mingyang is.
He wasn't even an officer, he was just a small soldier wearing the same standard spirit armor as most of the Xiliang monks.
The unexpected friendship with Li Hong, in fact, in the end, Guo Yunshan was not very optimistic, but seeing Li Mingyang's insistence, they were not good at turning against Li Hong, but Li Hong was really very attentive to Li Mingyang, knowing that Li Mingyang only hoped to return to the south this time, and when he had the opportunity, he would immediately separate from the large army, so Li Hong simply arranged him in as a small soldier.
Coincidentally, their first target was Phoenix.
For Phoenix, the Shu army is forever painful, but after all, Phoenix is one of the few fortresses in the south, although the 60,000 Shu army is scattered, but the Phoenix has always garrisoned 20,000 monks, the Shu army is centered on Phoenix, and the four largest cities are arranged into an overall fortress defense line. These battle reports were already known to the Xiliang monks before they came here, so they chose to gnaw here first.
It's just that when they arrived here, they found that the fortress defense line mentioned in the previous battle report had disappeared, and the Shu army guarding here had disappeared as if the world had evaporated. Seeing such a situation, a group of Xiliang soldiers were excited for a long time. In their opinion, this is a sign that the Shu army is already afraid.
In fact, the Xiliang army did not really want to fight with the Shu army outside Phoenix, although every Xiliang monk did not think that he was worse than the Shu county monk, but they had to admit that over the years on the battlefield in the Central Plains, the Xiliang army really lost more than the Shu army, this time if it were not for the fact that the king of Han also sent troops, they discussed to deal with the king of Shu together, and the Xiliang monks did not dare to attack Phoenix City lightly.
But this time the reaction of the Shu army did seem too strange, the belligerent and strong of the Shu army, as their old opponent, the Xiliang monks could not be clearer, seeing the situation in front of them, this time the president of the Xiliang army of the southern expedition thought about it for a while, and finally ordered: "Bypass the Phoenix Abyss, do not enter the city, and continue to advance." ”
