- The city wall is only three feet high. The outer ring is made of stone, but the inside is made of rammed earth. There is not even a urn city. However, such a dilapidated city wall is one mile long and more than a hundred feet wide. Let alone two thousand people. Ten thousand people cannot defend it.
Xie Xiaoyu led a group of people walking around the city. There was also an officer in armor among the crowd.
"This is not a defensive city, but a defensive city." The uncle said with an ugly face. In terms of Taoism and Dharma cultivation, he was at the bottom of this group of monks, but when it came to marching and fighting, he was half an expert.
"Of course ordinary people can't guard it, but you are monks and have great magical powers, so this is not a problem for you." The officer said sarcastic words next to him.
¡°This used to be a place for storing food and grass?¡± Xie Xiaoyu changed the subject.
"There will be no food. Important things will be placed in the main city. What should be placed here should be nails, tiles, wooden boards, bamboos and the like." The uncle pointed to a circle of walls in the center of the city.
The wall was higher than the city wall, but the wood piled inside was actually higher than the wall. All the wood was completely dry.
On normal days, thoroughly dry wood would be considered a good thing. Unfortunately, there is going to be a war now. Dry wood is the best kind of fire. Not only is it useless, it is also a source of danger.
"How can we guard such a ghost place?" Zhao Bo shouted angrily.
Xie Xiaoyu was also angry, but he couldn't complain and had to pretend to be disapproving. Because it was his suggestion to come to Beiwang City, he was the one who offended the guard, and the instigator behind all this was coming against him, and he was the one who implicated others in this situation.
Since there is no way to change it, we can only find a way to defend this city.
??Wucheng is a hoarding city. When it was originally built, the convenience of access was considered. The location chosen was a flat land with no terrain to rely on. The city wall was too long and was not suitable for defense at all.
But this is also good, because the location is not important, and it does not block the Tuman's only way, and the Tuman will not fight here.
Suddenly he saw a hill next to him. There were many holes sealed with wooden strips on the hill. These holes looked familiar to him, similar to abandoned mines.
"Beiwang City used to be a mine?" Xie Xiaoyu turned around and asked.
"That was two hundred years ago. Among the big cities in Tianbao Prefecture today, except for Linhai City, which was the earliest settlement, the other cities were all developed in mining areas. This is one of the largest mines, with a total opening of a hundred Twenty years." Wu Ronghua knows this land well. He has traveled around for many years and heard a lot.
There are mines, and there are usually spiritual veins. Xie Xiaoyu used the "Great Technique of Observing the Sky and Clearing the Earth's Cave" to look over there.
Sure enough, there are many colorful light clusters dotted on the top of the mountain, but these light clusters are weak and sparse, and have no mining value. Several spiritual energy belts were winding and circling back and forth. The spiritual energy was not abundant, but it was enough.
"There is a source of spiritual energy on the mountain, and we are stationed there."
"You plan to abandon the city and not defend it? This is a serious crime." The officer said in a mocking tone from the side.
Xie Xiaoyu has studied military law a long time ago, and of course he knows that the defenders of the land must not leave lightly, but there are also loopholes that can be exploited. The defender can choose a favorable terrain and build a fort to defend it. Once the main city cannot be defended, he can retreat to the fort.
"I didn't say give up on this city. Instead, I wanted to transform it to make it easier to defend. Before the transformation is completed, we always have to find a place to stay." Xie Xiaoyu has a sharp tongue, how can it make people Hold the handle.
"This is not possible. You have changed the structure of the city. After the barbarians retreat, we have to rebuild it." The officer suddenly became anxious. He was sent by the superiors to find trouble. If this group of people is really fierce, they will forcefully If he withstood the barbarian's attack, his superiors would definitely blame him for his inability to do things well.
"It's none of my business. As a guard, I only need to defend the city. Military law clearly states that a guard can change the city's defense pattern. There are only two thousand of us, and there is no way we can defend such a large city. We must Shrink your defenses, no matter where this lawsuit goes, I will win." Xie Xiaoyu is confident.
He didn't care what the officer said, and turned to the uncle and ordered: "You are responsible for this matter. All the city walls will be demolished. These clods of earth will be discarded. The stones will be left. All the houses in the city will be demolished. All the buildings in the city will be demolished." The bricks and stones were piled inside the wall, and the city wall was rebuilt based on the wall, turning it into a fortress. "
He then said to Su Mingcheng: "There is a spiritual vein over there. Dig a pond and let the little ones settle down. They have also worked hard on this journey."
The monks around them all had their hairs on end. They had already been guessing what was inside the three big pockets.What, all I know is that one of the pockets was filled with fine chicken. They had eaten chicken along the way.
Now we finally have the answer, at least one of the pockets contains Gu worms.
"Mazi, you are responsible for building the camp where we are stationed. The mines on the mountain can be used, but they must be reinforced. The fighting power of the monks is amazing. Don't collapse the inside with just one blow." Xie Xiaoyu didn't have anyone available. We can only bring Mazi in. This guy is proficient in earth magic and has some knowledge of civil engineering.
"There are also some barbarians who are good at burrowing into the ground." The uncle reminded from the side. During the Qiu Luochuan battle, those barbarians who could freely come and go in the soil gave them a huge headache. The main camp was almost touched several times.
"Don't worry, I will set up a ban to make the soil as hard as iron and see if they can sneak in." Mazi was very confident. Earth magic was his special skill, and absolutely no one could match him in this aspect.
"In this case, your earth escape will probably be ineffective, right?" Xie Xiaoyu asked.
"Of course, there is nothing perfect in the world?" Mazi said disdainfully.
"You, you" The officer next to him was trembling all over. He was so angry that he couldn't find an excuse.
"The soldiers guarding the city have been sent over. Damn it, they are all old, weak and disabled soldiers." Wu Ronghua shouted loudly, his words full of anger.
Everyone turned around and saw that a group of soldiers and horses were coming towards them, but they couldn't see clearly who they were.
When the team of people approached, everyone's anger also arose.
Wu Ronghua was right. The soldiers who came were all old and weak. They only had uniforms on them, no armor at all, not even helmets. They only had a spear in their hand. These old soldiers simply used the spear as a crutch, even if He still moved step by step, tremblingly.
"It seems that the garrison master is not willing to bear these burdens, so he sent them here to die." Xie Xiaoyu said sarcastically.
"This, this." The officer next to him hesitated for a long time, and he couldn't explain it at all.
¡°This is too much, let¡¯s go to the garrison to have another scene.¡± Zhao Bo jumped to his feet and shouted.
¡°That¡¯s right, this is too bullying.¡± The uncle also cursed.
The other monks followed and cursed loudly.
"Hahaha¡ª¡ª"
Amid the angry cries, Xie Xiaoyu¡¯s voice looking up to the sky and laughing wildly seemed particularly abrupt.
"Isn't this great? The garrison master did me a big favor. I was originally worried about a group of hard-to-conquer thornheads. If I were that guy, I would send a group of soldiers and thornheads over. Anyway, the guard general It's also a thorn. If the thorn is defeated, Beiwang City will have an extra barrier. If the two sides bite, there will be no loss." Xie Xiaoyu laughed at himself.
"You mean he's not bad enough?" Zhao Bo didn't understand.
"Being bad also requires qualifications." Xie Xiaoyu smiled contemptuously. After being brought to Tianbao Prefecture, even if he was to serve as a guard for a city, he was just a lost dog and an abandoned figure.
The guard has a good-looking appearance, but he doesn¡¯t even look good at causing trouble. It can be seen that there is a reason why he came here.
Xie Xiaoyu jumped off the city wall and walked towards the group of people.
Those old, weak and remnant soldiers obviously knew that they were sent here to die. Their faces were earth-colored and their expressions were in a trance.
"Stop everything." Xie Xiaoyu shouted loudly.
The veterans stopped one by one in confusion.
"You must have understood that you have been abandoned by your superiors. You have no strength to restrain a chicken. You may not even be able to wear heavy armor. It is a waste of food to raise you, so your superiors asked you to die." Xie Xiaoyu Use his poisonous tongue to kill people's hearts with every word.
One veteran was so sad that he burst into tears. Others were infected and cried loudly or secretly.
Xie Xiaoyu sat down on a stone and watched these old men cry.
Not to mention, the old man crying is really interesting, and it is not easy to see it usually.
"It's a pity that as people get older, their strength becomes shorter. After only half an hour, these old soldiers couldn't cry anymore.
Suddenly an old man came to his senses and fell to his knees. He kept kowtowing to Xie Xiaoyu and kept muttering: "Master monk, help me, you are a very capable person."
The other veterans also suddenly understood and knelt down.
"There is indeed a glimmer of hope. It depends on whether you can grasp it?" Xie Xiaoyu smiled sinisterly. He knew that it was useless to pretend to be a good person at this moment.The better he talks, the less likely he is to gain trust. Therefore, the best way to deal with the old man is to intimidate him, scaring them half to death first.
"Some of you must have heard that I am not a good person, and I practice magic." Xie Xiaoyu paused, waiting for the people below to digest what he said.
As he expected, the veterans were all frightened. Just now it was because they were about to die, so they were afraid, but now it is because the reputation of the Demon Sect is too terrifying.
"There is a secret method in the magic sect, which uses essence and blood to breed poisonous insects. The breeder can control the poisonous insects to defend against the enemy. This secret method is not limited to monks. Almost everyone can use it. Poisonous insects are much more powerful than people. But the ugly words are up front, the spirit Blood is precious, and young people are better off. Old people like you who are old and weak will definitely lose their vitality." Xie Xiaoyu's words were partly to scare and partly to comfort.
"Master monk, if we are willing, how are you going to arrange it? If we are not willing, how are you going to arrange it?" the first old soldier who knelt down asked quickly.
"Good question, you have a very clear mind." Xie Xiaoyu praised, and he immediately explained: "Those who are willing can hide in a safe place and direct the poisonous insects to fight. Although the control is in your hands, those poisonous insects are Advance or retreat? But it is under my control. Those poisonous insects will become stronger as they fight, and to a certain extent they will feed you back and extend your life. If the poisonous insects die, you will have to donate your essence and blood to feed new poisonous insects. Those who are cunning will only bring bad luck to themselves. As for those who are unwilling, I will prepare heavy armor and spears for them, and they will stand on the top of the city to defend the city like normal soldiers."
This statement couldn't be more clear. If you don't want to, you will be dead. If you want to, you can linger. Your vitality will be greatly damaged afterwards, but your life may be saved.
The group of old soldiers whispered to each other.
Xie Xiaoyu was very patient. He waited for the veterans to make a decision. At this moment, he found that other people had come over at some point.
"You said that I have an extreme temperament and that I am too deeply influenced by the devil. I think you are more like a person from the devil." Mazi stabbed Xie Xiaoyu.
What he said was incomprehensible, and others didn¡¯t quite understand it.
Xie Xiaoyu knew the meaning, so she asked, "Have you guessed it?"
"I know that you are good at using Gu. If no one controls the Gu, it will kill the enemy instinctively, which is not very efficient. So you let these old and weak soldiers be sacrificed with blood essence, so that human brains can be used to replace the insect brains. And you said , These poisonous insects will become more fierce as they fight, and they are probably trying to refine the inner demons of the seven emotions, right?" Mazi revealed Xie Xiaoyu's plan.
"At least they can save one life." Xie Xiaoyu doesn't think there is anything wrong with him: "These people are all in their late 70s and 80s, and they have only a few years to live. This does not count as embarking on the path of magic. They should all die in the end. Even if there is some karma, there won¡¯t be much karmic retribution.¡±
Mazi thought about it for a moment and immediately understood Xie Xiaoyu¡¯s intentions. I finally understood why Xie Xiaoyu laughed just now.
The Demon Sect is making rapid progress, but karma accumulates quickly, and the karma will spread and spread. If a disciple commits a sin, the master will also be implicated. Parents, relatives, friends, and senior brothers will all share a share of karma, so even if the people in the Demon Sect keep their own rules, , will also have heavy karma, and eventually lead to many disasters.
If the guard sent a group of young people with strong blood, they would inevitably cause trouble after learning these methods. If they were replaced by such a group of old men who were about to die, their blood had already declined, and they would not be likely to cause trouble, and they would not have much life expectancy. , after death, all karma is eliminated.
As for those Gu insects, they are easy to deal with. You can expel the Gu and swallow the Gu, and use the demon to devour the demon. In this way, you can easily make those sword Gu very strong, and it will not be contaminated by cause and effect or karma.
This calculation is absolutely impossible for him to do.
Xie Xiaoyu doesn¡¯t care what Mazi thinks, he still has a lot of things to do.
He glanced around and saw that the officer did not follow him. He immediately called Wang Chen closer and said softly: "Wang Chen, go to the garrison and ask him what he plans to do? Why did you pick some old, weak and remnant soldiers to come here?"
"The guards won't see me." Wang Chen shook his head.
"We don't need to see him, we just need to let everyone know that we have been wronged." Xie Xiaoyu knows that crying children are always fed. When the old miner made a scene in the mining club, he would bring back a set of " Reversing the Universe and Void Shifting Formation".
"What do you want?" Wang Chen's face turned red. He understood that Xie Xiaoyu wanted him to act bad.
¡°Wang Chen was really embarrassed to think that an old man over eight feet tall with a full beard could actually do this kind of thing between women and children.
"Food, but not finesse"??, let them convert it into black beans for horse feeding. The reason is simple. Those old, weak and disabled soldiers don't need to eat too well. Black beans are enough. "Xie Xiaoyu said.
"There's no need for this, right?" Wang Chen is a real person.
"Do you think I treat those people as human beings?" Xie Xiaoyu knew what Wang Chen was thinking: "I'm afraid this battle will not be easy. That pig-headed officer dared to cause trouble for us, and the guard didn't show any fear at all. Everyone looked like They are confident, how can they have the confidence?¡±
Hearing what he said, Wang Chen felt a sudden realization, and everyone else was also awakened one by one.
Mazi interjected from the side: "Yes, it is indeed abnormal. The government has a back-up plan."
"It only takes three years. In the past three years, three big cities have been attacked in succession. I believe that the faces of the imperial court and the various sects are not very good. This time, there is a high probability that the barbarians will be dealt a cruel blow. The question is how to defeat them. ?" Xie Xiaoyu looked around and finally stared at Mazi.
"I admit that my brain is not as good as yours." Mazi was depressed again, and he gave up.
Xie Xiaoyu was quite satisfied, and then he said: "If I were the commander-in-chief, I would use Beiwang City as bait to drag on the siege for as long as possible. I would drag the barbarians down to skin and bones and exhaustion, and finally make a thunderous strike. Attack, keep all these barbarians here, and then send out the army to take advantage of the main force of the barbarians to wipe out all the large tribes that they did not dare to touch in the past, so that the barbarians will not be able to recover for at least twenty years. If you are more ruthless, you will issue a bounty and clearly mark the price. How many things can be exchanged for a barbarian head? I believe that many people will form their own hunting teams and go to the depths of Tianbao Prefecture to cause trouble for the barbarians. "
¡°Hiss¡ª¡ª, what a vicious strategy.¡± Mazi suddenly changed color.
Others are not much better.
This is just a guess, but everyone is convinced.
Mazi added casually: "No wonder you were kicked to this hellish place."
Zhao Bo happened to wake up at this time and asked casually: "What do you mean by this?"
Normally, Mazi would never respond. In his eyes, only Xie Xiaoyu was qualified to talk to him, and no one else could. But at this moment, he felt depressed in his heart and wanted to find someone to talk to. So I couldn't help but say: "Let's not talk about this guy's talent. He is also knowledgeable and knowledgeable. He has so many scheming skills. His ability to plot and calculate makes people shudder. It is definitely not a pleasant thing to be in the same class with him." , especially the head disciples, they must be under a lot of pressure. If I were in that position, I would definitely have to find a way to get rid of him."
"He should have a master, right? His master would allow this to happen? And where are the elders?" Zhao Bo knew something about the things in the sect.
"A sect needs people with high resourcefulness, but there is a limit to everything, and it is not good if it goes too far. A person with high resourcefulness and good talent is definitely not a blessing to the sect. If such a person is not allowed to be the leader, who will sit on it? The position of the leader will feel hot under the buttocks. Let him be the leader, and the trouble will be even greater. It is easy for the sect to become united and his ambitions will expand"
"Isn't this bad?" Zhao Bo interrupted Mazi.
"The sects have different ideas. Their positions are very stable, so all the sects are content with the status quo. Anyone who wants to break the status quo will be the target of public criticism." Mazi talked about the secrets of the sects, but did not notice Xie Xiaoyu had a strange look on his face.
Xie Xiaoyu only found it funny.
If he is really that kind of genius, Mazi's words are absolutely correct. Unfortunately, before he came to Tianbaozhou, he was only an average person. - Didn't finish reading?
