Chapter 726: Flag Cutting

Shulitu's heart was shaken by a huge shock.

Compared to most of the people of the Northern Garden, he had read many books, received a short but excellent education, and knew how to rely on his status and status to win the allegiance of his subjects in a combination of grace and power, and this adventure of the Dragon King was completely beyond his comprehension.

The dragon king is trying to transform fear and doubt into awe and obedience, against the minds of tens of thousands.

Looking at thousands of pairs of hesitant gazes, Shulitu felt as if he was standing next to a freshly captured beast, its prey untamed, and its silence showed a deep hostility, ready to open its bloody jaws and tear those who approached it to pieces.

More than 30,000 cavalrymen, thousands of whom were left to him by his grandfather and father, even this group of people, Shulitu felt unfamiliar, did not have much trust in their loyalty, as for the soldiers from other sources, it brought him more vigilance and vigilance.

It was this group of cavalrymen who persistently believed that the old Khan King was still alive in the sky as the god of fire, because his ascension caused the demon birds to jump into the grassland and harm the world.

Shulitus did not even dare to touch the subject, fearing that it would cause unnecessary anger and engulf him, hoping that time would dilute the superstitions of the soldiers and that the worship of the old Khan would slowly continue to him.

The Dragon King broke the rules, not only stirring up controversial topics in public, but also wanting to change the trajectory of people's hearts and turn a big bird that everyone fears from a "demon" to a "god".

Shulitu had never been so nervous, holding the reins firmly, and like a dazed soldier, he looked up at the sky, fearing that the arrival of the demon bird would cause public anger, and hoping that it would quickly descend from the sky to conquer the hearts of the army.

There were no big birds coming, and the two armies confronted each other, and the birds and beasts nearby were so frightened that they scattered and fled.

In fact, no one understood the meaning of the dragon king's strange whistle, and people only took it for granted that it was associated with the magic bird.

The whistle stopped, and the dragon king urged his horse to run towards the shaman opposite.

Schulitus felt that he didn't have to go along, that he couldn't keep his composure in this state, and had to admit that he was only twelve years old, and that the knowledge he had learned in books was not enough to deal with the situation in front of him.

A small group of soldiers drove out of the line and chased after the dragon king in front, one of them holding a large banner of red crows on a black background, which was the symbol of the dragon army.

Long Chuanyun and other swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain have heard this kind of whistle, and when the Dragon King was fighting to unify the peaks in the Great Snow Mountain, he had used it many times to summon the red-topped Dapeng to make the residents of the Snow Mountain surrender.

Unlike the people of Beiting, although the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain were afraid of the Dapeng bird, they respected it more and regarded it as a divine envoy.

Therefore, when the dragon king's whistle stopped and the roc bird did not appear, the swordsmen felt that this was actually a summons to them.

Gu Shenwei didn't expect the Dapeng Bird to appear immediately, he just wanted to create a mysterious tense atmosphere, which would be very helpful for what he was going to do next.

As he expected, several shamans showed panic in front of the two armies, and the great shaman failed to keep his composure, and even turned his horse to run back into the army, and only after finding that there was no danger in the sky did he stop the horses and circle in place, not daring to go too far from the guards behind him.

For a group of people who had just seized military power under the banner of the old Khan, they showed obvious cowardice, which was really a big mistake.

Gu Shenwei is no stranger to the method of pretending to be a ghost, he has benefited a lot from it, and at the same time he is very aware of its limitations, it can quickly conquer people's hearts, but it cannot maintain people's hearts, interests, all kinds of interests, is a slower but more lasting means of convincing the public.

The commander's composure is also a kind of interest, and its implicit meaning is responsibility and protection, which is related to life and death.

Therefore, he promised Jinpeng Castle to the Great Snow Mountain, and combined his revenge with the swordsman, so he must always maintain the image of the Dragon King, and never show the slightest fear.

How can a man with the will of heaven be cowardly in the face of worldly forces?

The shamans made a serious mistake, and Gu Shenwei decided to seize this rare opportunity.

Gu Shenwei led more than 40 swordsmen from the Great Snow Mountain to gallop out of the seventy percent distance between the positions of the two armies before ushering in the Great Shaman and his party.

This is also a hint.

The Great Shaman, who had passed the period of terror, became annoyed and angry, opened his arms, like a decrepit old bird that could not fly, and said in a rough and ethereal voice: "The demon bird possesses the body, and the foreigners have betrayed the trust of the old Khan King. ”

Then he turned his horse's head to face the black horse behind him, closed his eyes and whispered.

The Great Shaman conveyed the "Heavenly Decree", and a young shaman was responsible for accusing him in the language of the mortal world, "The old Khan King is looking down in the sky, the Dragon King, your tricks have been discovered, and you can think of it, and you have sent someone to scribble against the words in the camp of the close servants, assassinate the generals, and hand over the criminals, and 100,000 close servants may spare you from death." ”

Gu Shenwei was already very close to the nearby guards, his eyes passed over a few shamans and nearly a hundred guards, and he could even see the dazed and panicked faces of a large number of soldiers, and his expression was exactly the same as that of Shulitu's 30,000 cavalry.

The shamans wanted the dragon king to hand over the criminals and admit to being ghosts, because they said that they were not convinced that the soldiers believed in themselves, and the flames of the "black horse will die", and the mysterious bird that appeared afterwards had a great impact on the close attendants, and no matter how good the evidence was, the soldiers still believed that it was a miracle shown by the old Khan.

The Great Shaman's last resort is to make the Dragon King confess his sins in public.

"Put away your deception. Gu Shenwei ordered, his voice drowned out the chant of the great shaman, "The three words of the old Khan king are not something you can say. ”

The Great Shaman's prayer could no longer continue, he simply jumped off his horse, stared at the Dragon King, raised his arms, and rebuked with great speed, so hoarse that the people around him could barely hear what he was saying, "The Old Khan has given me divine powers, and he will see through my eyes the destruction of the betrayer." The close attendants, following the orders of the old Khan, prepared to release arrows. ”

The other shamans also jumped off their horses, their arms raised in the air, their feathers rattling like big birds that couldn't fly.

More than a dozen steps away, nearly a hundred guards first pulled out their bows and arrows, and the 100,000 close servants behind also bent their bows and arrows, once the arrows were fired in a volley, it was not only the dragon king and the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain who died, but also several shamans who were too close to each other.

In this way, the Great Shaman has to prove that he is the one favored by God.

The soldiers' arrows were pointed at the ground, waiting for the order to release them.

The young shaman felt that this order did not need to be given, and that the dragon king would give in before this, "The old Khan king will protect us from death, dragon king, do you dare to face the wrath of the god of fire?" dismount, kneel, confess your sins, and confess your plots. ”

Gu Shenwei jumped off the horse, but did not kneel, and pulled out the Wufeng knife, "Let the facts prove which side the old Khan King is on." ”

The young shaman didn't understand the meaning of the words, and by the time he woke up, it was too late.

Gu Shen threw his head high to attract everyone's attention, and suddenly jumped onto the flagpole of the Black Horse Flag.

The black horse was tall and heavy, and had to be carried by two horses, and Gu Shenwei was as nimble as a monkey, jumped three times to the top, and halfway re-grasped the head that had begun to land, and carried it, standing on the highest place on one foot.

"Arrows, arrows!" the great shaman shouted desperately.

Some raised their bows and arrows, and quickly lowered them again, as most remained still, and they looked at the dragon king on the high place with fascination, and their hearts pounded, and they had a premonition that something was about to happen.

"The old Khan did not protect him. Gu Shenwei's voice spread farther, throwing down the young shaman's head towards the nearby attendants, "The old Khan King has ascended to heaven, how can he leave the 'dark horse' in the mortal world?"

Gu Shenwei jumped down from the flag several feet high, causing a burst of exclamations.

Seven or eight feet down, he cut off the flagpole with the thick mouth of the bowl, and the huge flag fell with him.

"Hurry up and release the arrows!" the great shaman was furious, "the old Khan King has ordered you to release the arrows!"

The old Khan did not protect the shaman who claimed to be immortal, nor did he protect the dark horse Daxu who symbolized his surname, and many of the close attendants did not even hear the cry of the great shaman, and all their minds were on the dragon king, and they fell with him at the same time, almost to the point of obsession, and the arm that pulled the string gradually loosened.

Gu Shenwei used the hilt of his knife to slow down the flagpole with a slight force on the flagpole every time he descended a distance, and the two horses below were highly trained and indifferent to the changes that took place above.

He landed almost at the same time as the dark horse Daxu, one on the left and one on the right.

The human heart is a wonderful thing, you can never guess what he thinks in the face of an individual, thousands of people gather together, but the human heart is as clear as a deep mountain stream, but only those who have courage and skill can see this.

Gu Shenwei was undaunted, he had bypassed many obstacles, approached the huge human heart, and was able to talk directly to it and observe its every beat.

There were five shamans left, huddled tightly together.

The great shaman stared at the guards not far away, his hoarse voice full of anger and despair, "Shoot the arrows, or you and your family will fall into hell and never be able to live again!"

The three arrows hesitantly shot at the dragon king, weak and weak, but not bad.

Gu Shenwei immediately felt the change in people's hearts, these three arrows were not threatening in themselves, but they represented a kind of temptation, if they were allowed to lead the way, his previous achievements would disappear in the blink of an eye.

He quickly put away the Wufeng Knife, waved his arm, grabbed the arrows he had shot, and threw two of them at the huddled shaman.

The two shamans fell in response.

"The old Khan still didn't protect them. Gu Shenwei announced loudly and threw a third arrow.

This arrow goes straight at the Great Shaman.

He didn't die, though he was so frightened that he didn't die.

Long Chuyun got a hint from the dragon king's eyes, jumped off his horse and walked in front of the great shaman, grabbed the feathers covering his whole body, and shook it twice, "Iron pieces, all iron pieces, this is his 'protector'." ”

The great shaman broke free from the shackles of the dragon and the clouds, bent over, raised his bony palms high, and howled with a crying voice: "Old Khan, god of the heavens, lord of the flames, forgive your soldiers, they are bewitched by the devil, please exert your divine powers, kill the enemy, and destroy the demon bird......"

The demon bird fell from the sky as fast as a meteorite falling to the ground, and no one noticed where it came from.

The red-topped Dapeng stood in front of Gu Shenwei, spreading his wings as much as he could, beating his left and right feet happily, and the huge shadow covered the great shaman.
