All the Heavens: Only I Have Read the Script

Chapter 50 Crossing the River in White Clothes?system task?I don't answer (seek to read~)

Immediately afterwards, there was only a "ding", and a familiar voice came into Li Gui's mind again.

"Ding! It is detected that the host is about to experience a key node in the life and soul world of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and is automatically matching the host with the task of the Son of Destiny."

"The Child of Destiny's mission was successfully matched."

"Mission Name: Crossing the River in White Clothes."

"Mission content: The host needs to help Lu Meng, the son of Destiny in the world of Destiny and Soul in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", assist him to cross the river in white clothes and win Jingzhou."

"Mission Reward: Life Soul Ability [White Clothes]."

"Supernatural effect: It can consume the power of the user's own life and soul, weaken the opponent's attention, and enhance its own attack, speed, and defense."

"Introduction to the ability: Adopt a son like Sun Zhongmou, and Lu Meng will be named a Marquis when he talks and laughs. It's a great trick to shake the white clothes and take the second one in one fell swoop."

After hearing this prompt, Li Gui, who was familiar with "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", immediately realized what event he was traveling through, and his heart instantly rose to his throat.

It turned out to be crossing the river in white clothes!
I actually traveled to the historical turning point when Sun Quan abandoned the alliance with Liu Bei, Lu Meng and Lu Xun attacked Jingzhou, and besieged and killed Guan Yu and the second master of Guan Yu!
And right now, it is the first battle of this unjust war of sneak attack against the alliance: to deceive the defenders of the Beacon Tower and take Jingzhou City!

In history, Lu Meng's crossing the river in white is known as the most exciting battle of surprise in the Three Kingdoms.
However, as wonderful as it is, it is not glorious.

Lu Meng first pretended to be sick and asked Sun Quan to replace himself with the younger and unknown Lu Xun to deceive Guan Yu, making Guan Yu mistakenly think that there was no one in Jiangdong, so he transferred a large number of troops to the north to besiege Cao Wei's Xiangfan;

Then, taking advantage of the lack of troops in Jingzhou, Lu Meng crossed the river in white clothes and attacked Jingzhou by surprise.

However, the white clothes crossing the river mentioned here does not mean that the soldiers all wore white clothes to cross the Yangtze River and fight the soldiers of Jingzhou in a fair and fair manner.

Because ordinary people in ancient times had no money to wear dyed clothes, they generally wore white and plain clothes.Therefore, crossing the river in white clothes refers to the strategy of letting the soldiers wear the clothes of ordinary people and merchants, pretending to be ordinary people and merchants, defrauding the soldiers of Jingzhou to trust them, and then assassinating them in the dark to seize the Beacon Tower. important place.

In Li Gui's view, this was undoubtedly an extremely despicable battle.

He once thought that if one wanted to compare it with similar scenes in other novels, the closest thing would be the bloody wedding in A Song of Ice and Fire.

Both scenes are allies, taking advantage of the trust and "guest rights" of allies, and then carry out despicable sneak attacks and siege.

It's just that the "bloody wedding" used the "guests" to relax their vigilance at the wedding, while crossing the river in white clothes made use of the benevolence of Liu Bei's soldiers towards the "common people".

However, whether it is "Blood Wedding" or "White Clothes Crossing the River", they all achieved "tactical" success in the end.

As for what happens to the tacticians who carry out this "surprise attack" and whether there is still "trust" and "benevolence" in the world, that is a matter for the future.

"Damn it, it's this point in time, and the system issued such a mission!"

Thinking of this, Li Gui fell into hesitation.

To be honest, he really really didn't want to help Lu Meng to carry out this system task.

Everyone has preferences, and Li Gui is no exception. When he was on Earth in his previous life, he had read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" many times, and he was an out-and-out fan of the Three Kingdoms.

In the Three Kingdoms, he was a fan of Cao Cao's Cao Wei and Liu Bei's Shu Han, but the only one he didn't have a fan of was Sun Quan's Soochow.

There was no other reason, but he felt that the behavior of the Soochow thieves was too despicable and shameless.

No matter how you look at it, pretending to be a civilian and sneak attacking and betraying an ally cannot be called a hero.

Therefore, even if it was a task assigned by the system, even if it was the Destined Son of the Fate Soul World recognized by the system, even if the Fate Soul ability rewarded by the system seemed to be within easy reach, Li Gui was unwilling to do so.

If you see an injustice on the road, you still have to shout, let alone betraying your allies and launching a sneak attack, which provokes anger and resentment, and landslides and earth-shattering actions?

Li Gui couldn't wait to shout to the outside of the cabin, "We're here for a surprise attack, you all need to be alert."
However, rationality still prevented him from doing this. This approach can only be used to save one's breath, but it can't achieve any essential change.

After thinking about it, Li Gui walked to a secluded and unoccupied place in the cabin, and called Sophie's name in a low voice, hoping to communicate with her system incarnation.

Soon after, Sophie's voice, which was exactly the same as the notification tone, sounded in his mind: "Master, what are your orders?"

"Sophie, you should be the one who released the system task of helping Lu Meng cross the river in white, right? Can you change the content and rewards of the task?" Li Gui asked straight to the point.

"No. This task is only matched by our system and originated from the publisher. In essence, it is not a task issued by our system. Therefore, I can neither change the content of the task nor the reward of the task."

Hearing this, Li Gui couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

He also noticed the word "matching task" that the system said before, and thought it was a new term.

I just didn't expect that "matching" actually meant that the task was only found by the system, not generated by it.

"Then who produced this kind of mission? After all, where did the content and rewards of these missions come from?"

Li Gui originally wanted to ask that question, but he glanced at the scenery outside the cabin and noticed that time was running out, so he swallowed the question back and replaced it with a more urgent one.

"Then if I don't do the system tasks, or even go against the system tasks, what punishment will I have?" He asked.

Sophie was silent for a while, and replied: "Report to the master, you can choose not to do system tasks, and there will be no punishment for this."

After a pause, before Li Gui could speak, she continued, "However, if you choose to go against the party who issued this mission, then you will be hindered by the repulsion of cause and effect."

Hearing the familiar word "causal repulsion", Li Gui frowned. He also learned the corresponding meaning from Fang Feiluo before, but he didn't expect that he would face this problem so soon.

"Is it really not that simple to change your fate against the sky?"

Li Gui thought so in his heart, but he didn't intend to give up so easily.

After all, the reason why he carried out this life-soul matching was to find a way to change his life against the sky. If he gave up before starting, what would his efforts be worth?

What's more, according to Li Gui's understanding of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", preventing Lu Meng from crossing the river in white clothes this time may be the best chance to change the fate of Mr. Kong Ming and his world.

In any case, it is impossible for him to give up.

After thinking for a while, Li Gui smiled in relief, and he replied to Su Fei:

"I understand, Sophie, then please, help me cancel this system mission. I don't need mission rewards or anything."

"In addition, if possible, please do me a favor and tell the person who issued this task, no matter what it is.

"Crossing the river in white clothes, I don't accept it. I change my fate against the sky, but I want to try."
