Chapter Seventy-Four: Robbed
Li Gongzi's body was sent to the Li family in Shangzhou by two soldiers, and Zheng Cheng led more than 200 people to join the brigade and continued to Wanfu Pass in southern Xinjiang.
The lieutenant can command a thousand people, the two hundred people led by Zheng Cheng are only a small part, and the other eight hundred or so people are waiting a mile away, dealing with the weak Lieyang Palace, there is no need to work and mobilize the people.
Gu Yuan woke up five days later when he was about to be thrown by the soldiers in the barren mountains and wilderness, his slumber was another protection for the body, which could prompt the druid's heart to speed up the formation of blood, and then it took a full six days before he had the ability to move.
This is mainly due to the spiritual rice in the grain truck, which is different from ordinary rice, which can only grow in a field with strong vitality of heaven and earth, and can nourish the body and make the body stronger after eating.
The grain cart was about the size of a horse-drawn carriage, a square sealed carriage, capable of holding 50,000 stone of grain. In the process of marching forward, all the soldiers subconsciously put their bodies close to the grain truck, and if someone snatched it, they could respond in time at the first time.
When the grain truck arrived at the barracks, there were highly skilled soldiers guarding it day and night, plus strict sentry posts, so that no one could do anything to the grain and grass.
......
Behind the hundreds of soldiers who walked at the same pace, followed by a hundred or so people, walking without hurry or slow, pulling on their shoes, like scoundrels in the village.
Only one of them strutted with his head held high, his expression awe-inspiring, and he was dressed in scarred chain mail.
This chain mail is not like the system of the Great Yan Dynasty, but a bit like an antiquity that has been passed down.
There is also a person beside this person, wearing a linen shirt, but there is a graceful bearing that cannot be concealed, and he has the demeanor of a rich child in every gesture.
Both of them were young, and the man in the sackcloth spoke, not just to the chainmail man, but to everyone around him.
"Before the appearance of the Great Yan Dynasty, there were still dynasties thousands of years ago, and there were many art of war, but the cultivation realm at that time was shallow, and it could not reach the level of prosperity it is today, so many art of war are useless now.
Take burning grain to break the enemy, now that there are grain trucks, this kind of practice of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle is not used at all......"
"Ridiculous!" The chainmail man laughed and said, "Since the ancient art of war can be passed down to the present, there must be a reason for its existence, how can you dare to deny it completely?"
The man in the sackcloth was not angry, and replied with a relaxed attitude: "You are the only one who really remembers the ancient art of war, right?"
The man in the chain mail choked, and then saw the man in the sackcloth pull out a few people at random and asked, "Do you know what the ancient art of war is?"
The person who asked shook his head in disknowledgement.
The chainmail man's face turned red and white for a while, and finally he threw down a sentence with disdain, "A bunch of fools dare to talk about the art of war?"
Everyone was indignant, but they didn't dare to act rashly in the army, and they stayed away from the chainmail man. The isolated chainmail man walked at the forefront, even more scornful of his strides, and there was a sense of standing out from the crowd in his heart.
The chain armor man's name is Li Tai, the ancestor of the family was the general of the ancient Liang Kingdom, and most of these people who followed the rear of the army were forcibly recruited, only he took the initiative to join the army, in order to make a name for himself with his talents.
As for the man in the sackcloth, he is actually a little marquis, surnamed Liu Wencheng, and his father is Liu Han, one of the four marquis. When he arrived in the army, Gu Yuan learned that just a few months ago, the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty decided to cut the feudal domain, and almost effortlessly destroyed the three marquis, and only overnight.
When he arrived at Liu Han, he saw that he was isolated, so he took the initiative to unload the military power and return the fief, fortunately, the eldest daughter in the family was a harem concubine, and he was deeply favored, so he was saved from death and was sent to prison.
Fortunately, he did so, otherwise he would have died even worse, and only when he discharged his military power did he know that his henchman was actually a member of the Emperor's Nighthawk, and if he rebelled, he was afraid that his head would be cut off before the order was given.
Later, before entering the prison, after the emperor had a conversation with him, Liu Han was even more shocked in a cold sweat, those dead marquis were the same way to die, the emperor had already installed the eagle guard beside them, and the matter of cutting the feudal domain was planned when he ascended the throne and succeeded to the throne, and he waited for two hundred years before he started.
Cultivators have a long lifespan, of course the emperor is also a cultivator, and everyone in the world is seeking immortality, how can he, who is the Ninth Five-Year Venerable, be willing to stay on the throne for only a few decades?
It's just that due to the hard work of state affairs and the limitation of his talents, he is destined to not be able to go too far in his cultivation, and his cultivation is only in the Void Dan period.
After two hundred years of waiting, he became an old man in his prime of life, but what he left for his children and grandchildren was a sunny road without any bumps.
But Liu Han's family was miserable, especially Liu Wencheng, who was directly exiled to southern Xinjiang to resist the invasion of the witches, it is difficult to predict whether he will live or die.
These two people are now under Gu Yuan's control, as Zheng Cheng said, Gu Yuan has become the junior chief who commands ten people, but the price is that Zheng Cheng took away his Chenglu bracelet and the carriage that locked the soul lamp, but fortunately, the spirit treasure, rune treasure, and pill were all used cleanly, and he did not lose too much.
But Gu Yuan is also quite painful, not to mention magic weapons, it is very rare to be able to resist a hundred poisons alone, as well as the snow-patterned giant axe, even he can't remember the number of blood crystals.
Fortunately, the two exercises he had practiced were destroyed after he practiced, otherwise he would have been even more annoyed.
He will take back the storage bracelet and the soul lamp sooner or later, only he robs others in this world, how can anyone rob him?
......
On the way to the southern frontier, these people who fell behind at the end of the line had thought of escaping home, especially the disciples of the Lieyang Palace. Later, Gu Yuan saw what Zheng Cheng arranged for them to walk last, in order to facilitate the killing of deserters, and after killing several people in a row, no one dared to have other thoughts.
At first, they tried to keep their pace as consistent as possible, but the city guards in the middle unwittingly led them astray. There are 500 city guards, Zheng Cheng asked for them from Yang Qingshan, and on weekdays, they are all sent to maintain law and order.
In the early years, the city guards often fought with the disciples of the sect, all of them were brave and good at fighting, but now that the rivers and lakes are becoming more and more stable, they are becoming more and more lazy, and their spirits are lax like an old man walking in a bend.
Among the soldiers who were forcibly recruited, some people also had demon cultivators. Gu Yuan has a mountain moving bear named Ji'er under his hands, with infinite strength, he was arrested by the Mingqi Chamber of Commerce since he was a child, and he put on an anklet to move goods at the dock. Later, the dock steward beat him drunk, but he broke his arm, and when he was angry and wanted to execute the chicken, he was rescued by Zheng Cheng and became a pawn.
Gu Yuan felt that the name chicken was too ugly, so he changed its name to Big Bear, Big Bear is strong, very big, but soft and soft, which may be the reason why it is called a chicken.
