Chapter 333 Marquis Wu's Promotion Ceremony: Grass Head King!

Miserable and miserable.

In the camp of the Qingliang Bandit Suppression Coalition Army, the sky was filled with gloomy clouds and misty mist.

Most of the surviving Qingzhou soldiers are lazy, sighing and refusing to participate in any combat activities.

They were chilled, chilled to the bone!

A few days ago, the battle against Fire Prison...

The Qingzhou soldiers outside the city were not fools, let alone blind, they all saw clearly.

Hundreds of Qingzhou sharp soldiers risked their lives and fought bloody battles with the ferocious blood scarf bandits before climbing up the city wall with difficulty and gaining a small foothold.

As long as Wei Anguo and Xin Longzi can hold Wang Ganju temporarily, the Qingzhou soldiers can seize the Huolao Pass, thus securing the victory.

But what no one expected was——

When the situation was critical and the offensive and defensive momentum reversed, Xin Longzi, the governor of Liangzhou, was the first to escape from the battlefield.

In other words.

Hundreds of dead soldiers were abandoned by the lord, trapped in a fire prison and closed by the wall, surrounded and killed by thousands of blood scarf bandits, isolated and helpless...

Later history records:

"The bloody battle at the fire prison gate, the soldiers are brave but the generals are timid...The governor Xin Longzi abandoned the city and the army and fled...The young soldiers fought bravely until the blood accumulated on the hilt of the knife, which could not be held slippery. Judah called out to kill the thief."

"The soldiers cried out in mourning, but the blood scarves of the thieves had already swarmed and ants gathered, and they continued to fight each other, throwing deadly battles, killing dozens of thieves, until the whole army was completely defeated, unable to support them, and they seized the door. out."

But actually.

Only a few tens of Qingzhou elite soldiers, led by Feng Lebin, managed to escape with their lives, and the remaining [-] elite soldiers all died on the wall of the fire prison.

Coupled with the tragic casualties caused by the Tianlongshu raid, the Qingzhou Army, which was originally full of 1 people, has been reduced to only 300 people.

Among them, there were 2000 people with minor or serious injuries.

There are less than 4000 soldiers who can continue to participate in the battle.

And Jiang Chen's Qingzhou No.18 Battalion.

Also suffered heavy losses!
The Lord of Five Hundreds - Fan Liangshan, died in the attack of Tianlongshu himself. With just one claw, his body and head were separated, and he was shattered into a bloody mud flat.

Of the old team left by Zhang Longxiang in the past, there are only more than [-] people left, and the only old commander-Zhang Silong, also died in this battle.

Feng Lebin, Ruan Tiehan, Gongsun Hu and Xiao Wu were protected by Zhang Baisui, barely saving their lives.

But the soldiers under his command also lost more than half.

After the war, according to the statistics of the civilian leader Chen Buhung, as many as 18 or 840 soldiers were killed in the No.410 Battalion in Qingzhou, and [-] people were missing.

Zhang Baisui held back his grief, looked up at Zhang Shan, and said in a deep voice:

"The Qingzhou army has no fighting spirit, its morale is devastated, and it is unable to continue killing thieves."

however.

The flames of hatred surged in Zhang Shan's eyes, and he said with grief on his face:
"My younger brother Zhang Si was ruthlessly abandoned on the wall of the Fire Prison by that Xin thief. This is a mortal enmity and must be avenged!"

Zhang Baisui let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Si's tight fist, and in an exceptionally gentle and patient tone, advised:
"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years."

"The old man is also thinking about the hatred of Jiang Xiaowei's death, and he has suppressed it in his heart until now, and he has never retaliated. Why do you want to touch the stone with eggs?"

"Besides, according to the agreed time, General Hongwu will enter the territory of Liangzhou at the most tomorrow. At that time, it will be too late to punish Xin Longzi for his crimes."

A trace of depression flashed in Zhang Shan's eyes, and he said bitterly:

"It would be great if I had the strength of Captain Jiang. I don't have to rely on others. I personally beheaded Xin Longzi and Wang Ganju to sacrifice my brother's spirit in heaven."

Zhang Baisui smiled and joked:

"You think too highly of that brat Jiang Chen."

"Although he possesses a killing ability comparable to Marquis Wu, he has never killed a real Marquis Wu so far."

"A few days ago, he even lost to Wei Anguo."

The corner of Zhang Shan's mouth twitched, he couldn't laugh or cry and said, "What you said seems to be a very shameful thing to lose to General Wei."

The dish is the original sin!

In that battle, Tianlongshu led three thousand Shuoshu to attack the Qingzhou army formation, but it did not really lead to a reversal of the battlefield situation.

The key is——

Wei Anguo's attention was attracted by Tianlongshu, and in the end, he was punched into the mountain wall by Wang Ganju's fierce punch.

This is the key node in the reversal of the offensive and defensive trend, and it also indirectly led to this almost humiliating defeat...

After the smoke and dust cleared, Wei Anguo fell into a coma. After emergency treatment, he was quickly sent to Yujing City. Only the great doctor Dong Feng could heal such fatal injuries.

This doctor, together with Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, is known as the "Three Genius Doctors of Jian'an".

The medical skills are extremely high, and the moral character is high. He does not take money or things for the treatment of diseases. Only those who recover from serious illnesses will plant five apricots in the mountain, and those who recover from mild illnesses will plant one apricot.

A few years later, there were thousands of apricot trees, and they became a forest.

When the apricots are ripe in summer, Dong Feng builds a storehouse of apricots under the tree.

Those who need apricots can exchange them with millet, and then he will give the obtained grain to the poor and provide for travel, which is known as:

"Apricot Forest Sacred Hand!"

In today's world, there is only this person who can heal Wuhou's illness.

As for the Qingliang Bandit Suppression Coalition Army, it is tantamount to the complete loss of a Marquis-level combat power, and there is no possibility of attacking Huolao Pass.

Retreating became the only option.

not to mention.

Food and grass are also in short supply.

Even if they forcibly attack the city, they will definitely lose troops and generals.

finally.

Zhang Baisui led [-] soldiers and [-] lightly and seriously wounded, and retreated from the camp.

With a cold face, Xin Longzi also led hundreds of Xiliang iron cavalry, broke away from the team of the Qingliang bandit suppression coalition, and rushed towards Jiuquan County.

In other words.

The so-called "Qingliang Bandit Suppression Coalition" no longer exists!

parted ways!

…………

"Sorry for delivery!"

"What a bunch of useless soldiers!"

"A raging soldier, a raging nest, this is the first time I see Marquis Wu running away!"

On the wall of Huo Prison, hundreds of blood scarf rebels stared at the retreating back of the Qingzhou Army, laughing at each other.

Many Qingzhou soldiers, although their teeth itched with hatred, finally chose to swallow their anger for the lives of two thousand wounded soldiers and continued to retreat to the outskirts of Luanquan Mountain.

For a while, morale plummeted.

But the blood scarf army's morale was extremely strong.

because--

Wang Ganju is about to usher in the promotion moment!
As the Commentary of Heaven puts it:

"Thieves and bandits in all directions, occupying one place can be called king!"

If there is no base of their own, even if they are strong enough to leapfrog battles, they will not be able to become king after all and go one step further.

[Ritual: Grass Head King]

[Spiritual materials and elixir required: at least five hearts of county magistrates/county lieutenants, at least fifteen hearts of county magistrates/county lieutenants. 】

[Basic ceremony requirements: Occupy a land of hundreds of miles, establish a relatively stable system, and have no less than 5000 anti-thief soldiers and no less than five school lieutenants. 】

[The core of the ceremony: "The major event of the country is to worship and fight!". After repelling or destroying an army with Wuhou-level powerhouses, build an altar and offer three sacrifices to the sky. Please get the soul of the emperor and replace the sky. Witness, in the end, stand on your own feet in public, and split the ground as the master. 】

[Licheng, the witness of heaven and earth, turn a thief into a king! 】

Chaotic Spring Mountain.

It is the foundational place chosen by Wang Ganju!
This is also the reason why Qingliang's allied forces to suppress the bandits came fiercely, but Wang Ganju never retreated, fighting against the second Wuhou with his own body!
"Fantastic!"

"Great!"

Wang Ganju stared at the retreating back of the Qingzhou Army, overjoyed in his heart, and immediately ordered:
"Come, build an altar, worship the heavens!"

"Yes, General!"

Many anti-thief captains all showed ecstasy. It won't be long before they can change their name to Wang Ganju-the king!
At that time, they can also be promoted to rank, and go one step further!
The general guarding the mountain - Han Yonghu was even more excited, and immediately led hundreds of rebel soldiers to search for suitable materials to build an altar.

soon.

Under the command of the dog-headed army division-Lao Songtou, a somewhat simple but decent altar was finally built.

"Go up to the three animals!"

Old Song Tou woke up from the grief of losing his distant nephew, Song Batian, and commanded the clumsy rebel soldiers to transport melons, fruits, cattle and sheep.

It was not until noon that the many matters required for the sacrifice to the sky were barely laid.

The old Song head holds a wooden plate with both hands, and there is a sapphire royal seal on the plate. This is an object carved by Hetian Baoyu. It is worth a thousand gold. It sounds very valuable, but it is only ten thousand taels of silver. Things that are truly priceless.

Old Song Tou stood on the side of the altar and said respectfully:
"David's Wu Dynasty corrupted the country, exhausted the bamboos of the southern mountains, and committed endless crimes; he smashed the waves of the East China Sea, poured out endless evil, and eventually lost control of the world!"

"Chen Song Yong, respectfully invite General Wang to ascend to the throne, clean up the dust and clean up the dirt, and revive the mountains and rivers!"

In the hundreds of feet around the top of Huolao Mountain, [-] rebel soldiers gathered to respond, shouting in unison:

"Clean up the dust and clean up the dirt, and revive the mountains and rivers!"

Wang Qianju pretended to say:

"The monarch made a mistake, and the courtiers should follow Yihuo's example and clean up the treacherous officials on the side of the monarch. How can they stand on their own as kings?"

"This general has fought so far, and the people he has killed are just people who have lost all conscience, and they are just doing justice for the heavens!"

The rebels lost their patience and shouted bluntly:
"General Wang, we want to support you as emperor!"

talking.

Many anti-thief school captains invited Wang Ganju to wear a gorgeous crown uniform.

Wang Ganju fixed his eyes on it.

This is the royal mianfu, which is mainly composed of a crown, upper garment, lower garment, boots, and accessories such as girdle seals and accessories.

There are nine strings of jade beads hanging on the front of the crown, also known as "旒", and nine different patterns of chapter patterns are embroidered on the surface of the clothes.

To know--

The crown of the Son of Heaven is nothing more than twelve prongs and twelve chapters.

Wang Qianju was very satisfied in his heart, but on the surface, he sighed, shed a few tears, and said:

"Brothers, it is a heinous crime to say such words, but this general, how can I abandon you brothers?"

"That's it, that's it."

"Things have come to this, and we should be called kings in order to continue to protect the brothers."

Done.

Wang Qianju walked up to the altar unceremoniously, personally killed three fat pigs, cattle and sheep, cut off the heads of pigs, sheep, and cattle and placed them on the left, middle and right sides of the altar.

Old Songtou stood aside and said loudly:
"General, please pray to heaven and earth!"

Wang Qianju looked up at the sky, and was about to speak the lines he had prepared.

But see:

Above the sky on the east side, a blue light suddenly appeared.

boom!
——The wanderer far away from his second hometown, Jiang Chen, is back!
