Chapter Ninety-One: Suspicion
"Mother Buddha is clever, and her subordinates admire it. Shi Zhen was dressed in a green robe, stood on top of a big stone, and said with a smile.
"It's still Elder Spider's sweat medicine, I didn't just say it casually. Tang Sai'er glanced back at him and said, "It's a pity that so much medicine only makes these officers and soldiers a little weak, and this medicine is really difficult to match, and it is only these after a year of preparation, it is really embarrassing to use." ”
"But it's worth it here. Shi Zhen said slowly.
In the open space not far away, 5,000 Hunan army reinforcements were already showing a rout. The generals who led the troops had already died in battle, and the rest of the people were just holding on to the inertia of fighting.
In fact, their opponents were only more than a thousand people, and they were not as well equipped as theirs. Although these Hunan troops are not as good at fighting as those battle-hardened armies, they will not lose with five enemies and one in this open field, but the weakness of their bodies really makes them helpless. Not a war crime, in fact, every one of them knows.
Since receiving the urgent report from the King of Shu, 5,000 people have begun to march rapidly. Along the way, except for the four hours of rest in the evening, I didn't stop even when I was eating, and I ate the dry food I carried with me. But the dry food is enough to eat, and the water still has to be collected from the nearest water source, and it is precisely because of this that the White Lotus Sect is given an opportunity.
The general who led the team can be regarded as a battle-hardened battle, although he has been careful and careful along the way, he still landed.
Poisoning, this trick is not unusual, but they never expected that the poison would be put into the water. You must know that running water does not rot, and ordinary poison will not play a role if thrown into the river.
It's a pity that this idea is here, and it was used by the White Lotus Sect.
"Elder Spider's medicine subordinates really admire, and I don't know how he got it, if one day... Shi Zhen's words seem to have a deep meaning.
Tang Sai'er didn't seem to understand the meaning of his words, but just sighed: "Rise and fall are bitter, in fact, they are just soldiers to support their families." ”
"Ahh ”
"The subordinates are here. Ah Da walked up to Tang Sai'er and clasped his fists.
"Pass the order down, try to keep the prisoners alive, this battle is still based on surrender. ”
"Yes. Ah Da agreed, jumped off the boulder, and headed towards the battlefield.
"Mother Buddha," Shi Zhen said with a smile: "Looking at this, in addition to those who escaped, there are more than 2,000 officers and soldiers, and you are going to exhaust Zhao Niangzi." ”
"Surrender and expand, fool people's hearts. This is her duty, and she is not tired. Tang Sai'er chuckled, and then said with a little emotion: "Although there are many brothers in my White Lotus Sect now, after all, I can't practice every day like the officials and soldiers of the imperial court, and my combat strength is still not good. When the time comes, if we don't need to poison us, and can fight the imperial army head-on, then my White Lotus Sect will truly become the climate. ”
The effort was not great, and as General Tang Sai'er's order was conveyed, the White Lotus Sect side on the battlefield began to shout loudly slogans such as: "Put down your arms" and "Kneel on the ground and don't kill". The battle in the field was already nearing its end. Seeing that the general trend had turned, the officers and soldiers gradually began to surrender. It's not that there are people who have integrity, but after all, they are still a minority, since they can live, then who wants to die?
"Mother Buddha. ”
"Mother Buddha. ”
Sikong Xuan and Elder Spider have finally returned. Tang Sai'er looked at their appearance, and then looked behind them, and saw that he didn't see anyone else, nor did he see the grain cart, so he couldn't help but ask with some doubts: "Didn't you rob it?"
"It's robbed. Sikong Xuan replied
"What about the grain?"
Elder Spider replied, "Later, I was ambushed by those people in the martial arts. ”
"Oh, so the food is lost?" asked Tang Sai'er again, looking at her as if she didn't care. Did you anticipate it or didn't care?
"I don't know if I've lost it," Sikong Xuan scratched his head and told him what had happened, but he just hid the matter of Tang San Province, and Elder Spider did it selfishly, and he didn't expose it. (To tell the truth, the rainstorm pear flower needle is about to be handed over, and it also exposes his selfishness of being greedy for life and afraid of death.) )
After Tang Sai'er listened, he glanced at Sikong Xuan thoughtfully, but he didn't say anything, and fell into deep thought.
And Shi Zhen didn't care about any casualties, only noticed the problem of food: "So, they killed people, and then left the food where they waited for us to move it again?
This guess is quite reliable, but Elder Spider shook his head and denied, "We have already investigated carefully, and they have really withdrawn and have not continued to ambush. ”
"Then are they just trying to disgust us?" Shi Zhen wondered.
Tang Sai'er thought about it for a long time, and she was a little unsure, but the matter still had to be dealt with: "Since the grain is left, no matter what, it is a good thing after all, and it will be transported back first." ”
"Ah Er. Tang San'er turned his head and ordered, "You take someone to transport the grain back first." ”
"Yes. Ah Er turned and left.
"Mother Buddha, this... Sikong Xuan wanted to say, "Could there be any conspiracy here?"
Tang Sai'er naturally understood what he meant, and replied: "Although we have not dealt with him head-on, Zhu Chun, the news from all sides shows that this person is the most shrewd, this time we will kill him seven thousand elites first, so he will inevitably fight back." Maybe these grains are his calculations, but I can't think of the mystery, it is estimated that he has a hand to prepare whether to take it or not, even so, it is better to take it in his hand and then say, when the time comes, it will be dismantled. ”
"What the Buddha Mother said is very true. Shi Zhen nodded and said: "The food is there, and now we are nothing more than a question of whether to move it or not, there is nothing to say." ”
"Elder Spider. Tang Sai'er instructed again: "The grain will be transported back in a while, and you will check it carefully again to see if there are any problems and make sure that nothing goes wrong." ”
"Yes. Elder Spider nodded.
Tang Sai'er thought for a while, and turned her gaze to Shi Zhen: "That puppet named Wang didn't make any trouble, right?"
"Then I don't know, but Zhao Niangzi is doing things, and the Buddha mother can rest assured. Shi Zhen replied, and then asked with some hesitation: "Buddha Mother, my subordinates still don't understand, why do you want to find such a puppet to push in front?"
Tang Sai'er didn't hide it, and explained: "Actually, I just had such an idea before, after all, I am a female streamer, if I openly stand up to fight the world, it is inevitable that some people will not accept it, and there is no way to do it, especially when I just heard about this food, I always feel that something may go wrong in this incident, or push him out, we continue to hide in the shadows, anyway, with us behind the line, he is just a puppet." Nothing happened. ”
While a few people were talking, Zhao Niangzi came over from nowhere, and muttered and complained: "A puppet is a puppet, but this puppet is too stupid." ”
"Mother Buddha. Zhao Niangzi bowed down first.
"The golden lotus messenger is very polite. Tang Sai'er nodded.
"Mother Buddha. Zhao Niangzi said with some complaints: "Where did you find this Wang Siliu, it's too stupid, just a few paragraphs, and it took three days to memorize it." ”
"Huh. Tang Sai'er covered her mouth and chuckled: "It's not okay to just carry it down, what about people, is it like that?"
"This Buddha mother doesn't have to worry. Zhao Niangzi sneered: "People are not smart, but their hearts are not small, and they look like they are about to become emperors." It's really bluffing. ”
"You didn't make it clear to him?" asked Sikong Xuan, a little funny
"Got it. Zhao Niangzi said, and couldn't help but be happy: "I told him at the beginning, just let him stand in front and be a puppet, but he didn't care, and he gave himself the title of the Great General of the Mandate of Heaven, which really laughed at me." ”
"Didn't he ask for anything?" Tang Sai'er thought for a moment and asked again.
"Well, I made one. Zhao Niangzi's face was strange, and she learned in a thick voice: "You must be full of food, and the position of the general of the Mandate of Heaven will be reserved for my son in the future." ”
"Haha" everyone couldn't help laughing.
