Chapter 194: The Dao Gate Comes Out
The world is one family.
This is a phrase that circulates among countries, but it is not just words.
In the Wei State alone, after learning that a witch rebellion broke out in Lingnan Dao, several top Daomen went to the Taishan Dao Palace to discuss the matter together.
The world's Taoist gates are all headed by the Taoist Palace.
And among all countries, there are Taoist palaces.
But there is very little contact with each other, almost none, unless there is a matter of life and death for the sect, they will contact other national highway palaces to rush to help.
The relationship between the Taoist palaces in various countries is very deep.
This time, there were a lot of Wei Daomen who went to the Taishan Dao Palace, but all the Taoist sects that belonged to the first-class Jianghu forces came, such as the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the Wudang Sect, and so on, basically all of them had already arrived.
The purpose of their trip was to target the wizards.
Since ancient times, the Tao and the witch have not been separated, and while the emperor personally led the army to attack these wizard sects, they all wanted to make a good fall and contribute to the complete destruction of the witch sect in the Wei State.
The genius little Dao Gu of the Dao Palace, after the battle of the Huai River, returned to the Dao Palace to heal her injuries.
This time for the matter of witch Gu, she felt that it was reasonable and reasonable, and she had to help him.
In this way, led by the Dao Palace, the Daomen sects in the Wei State quickly twisted into a rope, and each of them sent a good combat force to help the emperor.
In fact, there is another reason why they are so active, that is, the emperor personally led the army to the rivers and lakes this time, and for them, they were also very worried.
And take advantage of this opportunity to brush the favorability of the various factions of the Daomen in front of the emperor, otherwise, maybe after the horse stepped on the rivers and lakes that day, the horse stepped on the Daomen again.
So who can stand it?
So this time, the favorability is a must-have.
The main reason why most Taoist sects can survive this time is because they are all hiding in the sect and cultivating behind closed doors, but they ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
But anyone who cares about the affairs of the rivers and lakes and has a little relationship with Zhao Changqing is impossible to be good.
Canton.
Xiao Yuming held on to the city for two days, and after thoroughly investigating the strength of the traitor, he said to the Lingnan Dao Envoy worriedly:
"I really didn't expect that these thieves would have such a strong appeal. Two days ago, he claimed to have only 200,000 troops, but in just two days, he increased his troops by 300,000. ”
Ma Hong glanced at the topography map of Lingnan Province a few times, and he was also worried, "General Xiao, in the final analysis, we still underestimate the prestige of these wizards among the local people. Raising their arms, there were people in all towns responding, which was really unexpected. ”
Xiao Yuming sighed: "You say, General Ben, how can you wield a butcher's knife at these ordinary people? These people are all from poor families, they can't afford to read, and they can't learn the way of saints, so they will be affected by the strange skills and tricks of these witches. ”
Ma Hong hugged his fists and said: "The matter has come to this, we can't delay it any longer, even if the people are deceived, but after all, they have become anti-thieves, for the generals, which one doesn't have thousands of white bones under his feet?"
I hope that General Xiao can put his family and country first and make a decision as soon as possible. ”
Xiao Yuming's eyes were cold, and he said bitterly: "That's good, this infamy, Xiao has carried it! The butcher's knife that slashed at the common people was swung by Xiao first!"
Then he walked out of the council hall and went to the barracks to order troops, a total of 50,000 people, led by him personally, to first capture Duanzhou, which could threaten the capital city, to win some strategic depth for the city of Fucheng, and to ensure that His Majesty would not be affected when commanding the battle.
In the face of these ordinary people who had no formal training, Xiao Yuming did not use any tactics and tactics, but 50,000 people rushed up, it was really like a group fight, and there was no rule to speak of.
It's not the most effective way to deal with them, but it's the least time-consuming.
The anti-thief army composed of ordinary people defending the city was dumbfounded when they saw so many elite soldiers dressed in armor and fierce momentum.
It is not once or twice that they have attacked Guangzhou Mansion in the past few days, but the army defending the city in Fucheng has no way to compare with the army in front of them.
These besieging people cooperated in an orderly manner, attacked in a measured manner, and everyone was so fearless of death, it was like a heavenly soldier descending from the earth, and the combat effectiveness was too terrifying.
In a sense, what they understood was not wrong, this was indeed a heavenly soldier.
They are all soldiers who followed Zhao Changqing all the way to the south and the north, it can be said that they are stepping on the blood and bones of corpses, and the army honed in this situation is absolutely invincible, and the most important thing is that each of them has faith in their hearts.
Their belief is that His Majesty the Emperor of the Dynasty is Zhao Changqing.
It is not terrible for an army to have indomitable courage, but it is terrible that they have faith in their hearts.
It can be said without contradiction that these soldiers who are following Zhao Changqing at this moment are much stronger than the founding army of the Great Wei Dynasty back then.
A loud and energetic horn sounded, and the soldiers in black armor began a new round of charge, and their formation was like a mountain and a sea, shaking the world.
The banner hunts in the wind, and the momentum of the brave wins when the army meets on a narrow road is fully displayed, quite magnificent, and the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound is shocked in the hearts of everyone who guards the city.
Arrows fluttered in the air, and ladders were set up one after another.
The defenders of the city gradually panicked, and the arrows began to shoot indiscriminately.
People are dying every second.
Until the first soldier attacked the city wall, and then the second and third, like crucians crossing the river, more and more, and finally, the city gate was broken.
In just less than an hour, Xiao Yuming had already captured Duanzhou City.
The moment he ascended the city gate, he was not in any mood for joy.
Not only him, but also the soldiers who besieged the city.
Because they all knew in their hearts that there was really nothing to show off and be happy about this victory, and they all knew that the enemies they faced this time were just some ordinary people who couldn't even hold a knife before.
"General, a total of more than 20,000 prisoners, how should we arrange it?" said to Xiao Yuming after counting the prisoners in Duanzhou.
He replied, "Go, take me to see it." ”
The lieutenant nodded, leading the way.
The captives were all held in the streets, and everyone's faces were full of unwillingness and fear.
Each of them was tied to his hands by a long rope, and the traitors were shackled.
Xiao Yuming looked at them, his heart was very painful, his eyes seemed to be sand, he took a deep breath, and said loudly to them: "If you don't fight for the tiger and rebel against the court in the future, this general can call the shots and let you go home and farm, but all this has to be after the traitors are completely destroyed!"
However, to his surprise, these people not only did not feel grateful, but instead intensified the noise,
"Fuck your court! Lao Tzu doesn't recognize it, Lao Tzu only recognizes the great wizard!"
"Sooner or later, the Great Wizard will kill you all, give us a chance to be reborn, and let us be happy!"
"If you have the ability, come and kill us! The Great Wizard will avenge us!"
“......”
These ordinary people are already stunned, at this moment, in their eyes, there is no more Heaven and Earth Monarch, no relatives and friends, only a person codenamed the Great Wizard.
Xiao Yuming looked at their eyes, and actually felt a trace of fear in his heart.
This famous general of the Wei State, who had gone through the battlefield and fought bloodily, actually felt scared.
Because, from the eyes of these ordinary people, he saw a state of madness to the extreme.
It's so palpitating and unexpected.
But who is the great wizard they keep talking about?
Will there be such a person?
What exactly is the method he uses to confuse these ordinary people?
"You say, are they still worthy of being called human now?" Xiao Yuming asked the lieutenant general beside him.
The lieutenant shook his head, not knowing what to answer.
Xiao Yuming asked again: "Is there any way to make them a normal person?"
The adjutant general sighed: "General Hui, I'm afraid... It's hard..."
Xiao Yuming gritted his teeth, turned his back, and said: "No matter what, they can't be killed, transfer out three thousand soldiers, take strict care of them, and starve for a few days." The rest of the men and horses will take the next city with Ben!"
If it were Cao Shen or Chen Qingzhi today, it was likely that these 20,000 people would not survive.
But Xiao Yuming wouldn't do that.
Because he is Xiao Yuming.
is a noble son from a poor family.
After many years, this story was rediscovered, but no one cared if these bewitched people were killed or not.
After all, to kill or not to kill is just a few numbers in the history books.
They only cared that there was a general who came out of the cold gate and said such a sentence, 'The butcher's knife that cuts at the people will be swung by Xiao first'.
How difficult it must have been for him to say this sentence, which is likely to be remembered for thousands of years, and he was scolded so badly that he forgot it.
