Chapter 172 Celebration Banquet
But the canyon was stuffed to the brim, and the army was like a swamp, and some of them were still crushed under the dragon lin's horses, and it was difficult to move an inch, let alone retreat.
At this time, Jiang Xiaobai was standing above the canyon, looking at everything that happened in the canyon with cold eyes. On either side of him were piles of stones, all larger than the millstones, and connected in a line like a wall, including on the other side of the canyon.
Jiang Xiaobai beckoned, and tens of thousands of monks poured up, picked up the stone and threw it into the canyon.
The monks at the bottom of the valley watched the dense raindrops of stones falling from the sky, huddled together and with nowhere to dodge, and suddenly their souls were frightened, and the ghosts cried wolf.
For a moment, there was a rumbling in the valley and screams to the sky.
Several county lords were standing next to Jiang Xiaobai, stretching their necks to look down, with an excited face. In fact, last night, when Jiang Xiaobai asked them to move the stones, they were reluctant, and carrying the stones up the mountain was a fool's doing. The point is that they do not believe that the enemy army will go through this canyon, and the enemy army is not stupid. If the hard work of moving the stones up the mountain, and the enemy army does not come, if this thing is spread, it will be ridiculed for the rest of its life.
I didn't expect this Buxiu to be really talented, and I don't know what ecstasy soup he poured into the enemy commander, he was as easy as herding sheep, and he led the sheep over in a few words, and several people were so shocked that their eyes were about to fall.
Now they believe that the chief county lord annihilated 20,000 enemies with the strength of more than 100 people in the Wusheng Sea, this thing must be true, it is really a god, the people and horses of the eighteen counties were wiped out in his strategy, and none of their people died. What shocked them the most was that none of them died. They were all ready to fight to the end, but before they saw blood, they were already in the end.
Several county lords originally had some contempt in their hearts, but now they were gone, and they turned their heads to look at the chief county lord, their eyes full of admiration.
Jiang Xiaobai looked calm, in fact, when he first started brewing this plan, he was not very sure in his heart, until last night, Chang Yuhuan sent a person over, saying that the enemy commander sent someone to Dao County to inquire about his past, especially concerned about his cultivation situation, Jiang Xiaobai temporarily decided to focus on the increase in cultivation pills to lure the enemy, and sure enough, the effect was remarkable, it seems that no one can resist the temptation of increase in cultivation.
After a rain of stones, the dust in the canyon settled, and it was calm again, and there was not even a sound of panting, as if nothing had happened.
At this time, a monk hurriedly ran over, ran to Niu Xuangu, and said with a fist: "Lord Qiyu, there are hundreds of enemy troops in the valley who are running fast, let them slip ......"
Niu Xuangu didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he kicked him to the ground and said angrily: "Are you blind? The chief county lord is here, what do you report to me? Don't you know the order of dignity and humility?"
The man hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The little one should be damned! The small one should be damned!" and then hugged his fist at Jiang Xiaobai and said: "Chief County Lord Qiqi, now that the enemy army has run away with hundreds of people, may I ask if you are pursuing?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, the fighter plane is fleeting, for the general, what is needed is courage and responsibility, some situations do not need to be asked, you come to ask for instructions now, it is too late." That's it, it's just a few hundred people, let them go, since it's a good start, let it be completely red, and it's best if there are no casualties. β
The man answered, and withdrew.
Buxiu also ran up at this time, still panting in his mouth, stretched out his head to look into the canyon, shook his head and sighed: "It seems that they have all become sauce-flavored human meatloaf." Originally, I thought that without the lifeless seawater, it would be difficult for the alliance leader and the clever woman to cook without rice, and she would never be able to fight such a beautiful battle again, but I didn't expect that the people of the cow were cows everywhere, as if they had a cow with them, and they could be cows when they wanted!" He turned his head to look at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Alliance leader, you said yes, right?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "You have made the first contribution this time!"
Bu Xiu laughed twice and said, "I'm just going to endorse the book, how dare I take credit?" Suddenly, he pointed to several county lords, and said: "It should be the greatest credit to these county lords, they are standing here and watching it too hard, they haven't closed their eyes all night, and their eyes are red, which is really respectable and lamentable!"
This sounded like both praise and sarcasm, and several county lords looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
Bu Xiu stretched his neck again and whispered: "Several county lords, are you still convinced?"
Several county lords laughed hard, and Liu Zhisheng said: "We have always admired the chief county lord in our hearts!"
Bu Xiu wanted to say more, but Jiang Xiaobai put up his hand and said: "Today's victory in the first battle is a happy day, inform the six counties, and set up a wine to celebrate!"
The crowd boiled at once, and the mountain spread to the bottom of the mountain, and the cheers one after another, shaking the sky.
During this time, everyone was very depressed and shrouded in the shadow of death, after all, the enemy was too strong, even if he was lucky enough not to die, he would definitely fight bloodily and walk on the edge of death. I never thought that it would be so easy to win, they seemed to have done nothing but move stones, many people didn't even see what the enemy looked like, it felt like they were in a dream, and they couldn't believe that what was happening in front of them was true for a long time.
When this suppressed emotion has a cathartic mouth, it is like a flood beast, he can't stop it, all of them are excited, running to celebrate, looking at the eyes of the chief county lord, full of fanaticism.
In order to make the celebration banquet grand, he personally organized it, arranged people to buy vegetables and wine, and went to the restaurants in various cities and pools to transfer the chef Xiaoer, and he had the power in his hands to recruit a number of people, and even the tables and benches of other restaurants were carried up the mountain.
When it got dark, thousands of tables of wine and food were also placed, which made Jiang Xiaobai a little amazed, it seems that these county lords are also deeply hidden.
There is a square in front of the main hall, densely packed with wine tables, and a space is set up in the middle to set up a stage, and several county lords have also invited several song and dance troupes to come over and take the stage to help the fun.
Because there are too many wine tables, they can't be placed in the square, and they are all placed in the woods on the side, although it is not ruled out that there will be bird droppings falling during the process of eating, but anyway, it is dark and no one cares, so it is a big deal to eat until you spit it out.
Jiang Xiaobai and Fengyan Buxiu Meng Degang, as well as Jiang Lifu Bian's father-in-law sat at a table, and several county lords sat at a table, and they sat casually below.
After everyone was seated and everyone was seated, Liu Zhisheng got up and picked up the wine bowl, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly: "This time we can win a big victory, I don't need to say it, everyone should also understand in their hearts that this is all the credit of the chief county lord alone." If it weren't for the chief county lord, it wouldn't be us sitting here drinking tonight, but the group of dead ghosts who were stoned to death in the canyon. Therefore, the chief county lord not only won this battle, but also saved our lives, everyone said, who should be honored with this first bowl of wine?"
Everyone stood up, picked up the wine bowls, and shouted in unison, "To the chief county lordβ"
The people of Zhijun were a little in a trance, thinking that when the table of the chief county lord came a few days ago, they were extremely embarrassed, and they couldn't even ask for saliva, and no one in the entire Zhijun could afford to look down on them, but they didn't expect that in just a few days, in the case of only Jin Dou's cultivation, they would be anti-guest-oriented, so that the six counties bowed their heads, and thousands of people admired them, if they didn't experience it personally, how could they dare to believe that all this in front of them was true?
Jiang Lifu and Bian Gonggong were also bright-eyed, in the morning they heard that a strong enemy was coming, and both of them had already packed their luggage in the room and were ready to retreat, but at noon Jiang Xiaobai told them that they had completely annihilated the invading enemy. The other party is a horse from the eighteen counties, they have not heard the fight, nor have they heard the shouts of killing, and they have not even seen the shadow of the enemy, and they have won if they say that they have won, how can they dare to believe that they are killing the enemy or killing the chicken?
When they learned about the process of destroying the enemy, the whole person was stunned, his ancestor Wuwei was not so powerful back then, he annihilated the enemy in eighteen counties, but there was no casualty on his side, it sounded like a serious joke.
Jiang Lifu was immediately excited, Wu Wei helped Emperor Taizu win the world, and now his descendants came to help him, he was also resourceful and talented, it seems that all this is providence, and they are destined to create the glory of their ancestors again.
Jiang Xiaobai also got up at this time and picked up the wine bowl, and said loudly: "Brothers, you have lifted up! Thousands of people are united, and thousands of people have the strength of thousands of people." If ten thousand people have different hearts, there is no one to use. Without the concerted efforts and silent support of my brothers, it would have been impossible for me to repel the enemy alone. I'm just a whetstone, I can make you sharper, more invincible, but without you, I'm just a broken stone. So, the credit belongs to everyone, not me!
In fact, we still have a long way to go, there is a long way to go, this is just the beginning, we just won a small battle, not enough to be proud and complacent to put on a celebration banquet, the reason why I did this, is not to celebrate, but the six counties have just been integrated, and I have just been hired, but we are a team, a whole, is a bucket that has just been hooped, I don't want there to be a gap between us, there is a sense of strangeness, people's hearts are like water, even if there is only a little gap, this bucket is also a waste barrel. If we want to go long-term, we can only work closely together, regardless of each other, in order to hold the hearts of this person and the world!
Therefore, after drinking this bowl of wine, we are brothers, not seeking to live together, nor to die together, but to seek the same heart!"
After saying that, he leaned his neck and drank the wine in the bowl.
The crowd listened very quietly at first, but when he finished speaking, they immediately boiled, feeling that this chief county lord was speaking too well, every word was beautiful, and the head was the Tao, and they heard their blood boiling, and shouted in unison: "Do not seek the same life, nor the same death, but seek the same heart!"
The sound was so neat that the wine in the bowl rippled in circles.
After speaking, they all drank the wine in the bowl.
After Jiang Xiaobai sat down, Feng Yan whispered in his ear: "Young master, I just like to see you bragging, you're so handsome!"
Jiang Xiaobai glared at him and didn't speak again.
