Yuan Shi Tian

Chapter 73

Inside the big tent,

Xun Shaoyu had a cold look on his face, while Lu Mingda knelt on the ground, dejected.

"Ming Da...haven't you been clamoring that you want to conquer Gaojiazhai in one go?"

"Why, why are you back now?"

He looked at his beloved general and said softly.

A famous team leader and battalion leader were trembling with fear, bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Only Li Hu, Li Xin, and Zhao Ping'an had their eyes shining as they lowered their heads.

The three of them are, in a sense, also the masters of suffering.

Most of the injured soldiers this time were from wealthy families.

Now that we have suffered such heavy losses, we cannot help the young people like them not thinking more about it.

Lu Mingda's blood was still wet, and he knocked his head on the ground: "Mingda knows the crime, please punish him."

The corners of Xun Shaoyu's mouth curved slightly and he said, "Oh...then tell me what crime you committed."

Lu Mingda said with a loud voice: "There are three crimes against Mingda. The first is not being compassionate, the second is reckless advancement, and the third is being brave!"

"My army lost soldiers and generals. It was Mingda's fault. Mingda is willing to take full responsibility for it. Please hold accountable the superior."

Xun Shaoyu was in charge of the army, and his punishment was harsh and almost ruthless.

Even if Lu Mingda followed Xun Shaoyu and fought all the way when he was still young, there would be no luck at all.

Xun Shaoyu seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and said: "Now that I know, tell me...how should I deal with you."

Although these words are light, Zhao Wenyuan, who has followed Xun Shaoyu for a long time, still has some taste.

Zhao Wenyuan frowned and remained silent.

"You can be beaten or killed, Mingda is willing to bear the responsibility!"

Lumingda's words were decisive and irrefutable.

Xun Shaoyu said sternly: "Drag him out and give him a proper punishment to correct the military regulations."

"Here!"

The two soldiers, like wolves and tigers, entered the tent and escorted Lumingda.

Xun Shaoyu looked at him and said sternly: "Take him out and explain his punishment in front of all the camps."

The two soldiers clasped Lumingda's collarbone, and with a little force, Lumingda was unable to exert his strength.

Zhao Wenyuan took a look, stepped forward quickly, and said, "Wait a minute..."

"Come on, wait for the punishment!"

Zhao Wenyuan lifted up his armor, knelt on one knee, and looked directly at Xun Shaoyu.

Xun Shaoyu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Why, Wen Yuan wants to plead for this black guy?"

Zhao Wenyuan looked solemn and said, "Wen Yuan doesn't dare."

Xun Shaoyu shouted: "Since you don't dare, why don't you retreat quickly?"

Zhao Wenyuan still persisted and said: "The reason for killing the general is unknown. Wenyuan is bold. Please think twice before taking the position."

Xun Shaoyu snorted and glanced at Li Hu and the others without leaving any trace.

Although he wanted to cut off the wings of the big families, he still wanted to save some face.

Most of these actions are for the children of these big families to see.

Several members of the team immediately knelt down and shouted loudly: "I'm humble, please think twice."

Some team members and battalions suddenly said in unison: "...Please think twice, superior!"

Li Hu, Li Xin, and Zhao Ping'an also had to kneel down and said: "...please...the superior think twice!"

Xun Shaoyu looked troubled and said: "This guy Lu Mingda acted recklessly and damaged the army. Without severe punishment, there is no talk of military discipline, military law, or military morale."

Zhao Wenyuan said in a deep voice: "The superiors are in short supply of generals at this time. If I kill Lumingda, I will break my own arm at all costs!"

"...Bold, could it be that without Lumingda, I can't build a small Gaojiazhai?"

Zhao Wenyuan lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head: "Wenyuan doesn't dare..."

"...Don't you dare?"

Xun Shaoyu sighed softly, his eyes opened and closed, as if there were cold stars.

"Please come up and forgive me for the sin of being humble and transgressing!"

Zhao Wenyuan had tears in his eyes and knocked his head on the ground.

Xun Shaoyu seemed to be moved and said: "Mingda... you are usually a carefree and unkempt guy, but I didn't expect you to be somewhat popular."

He shouted: "Come on, guards on the left and right, drag Luminda out and give him an eighty-point iron whip."

The guards pressed Luminda down and said, "Here!"

Lu Mingda said loudly: "Mingda, thank you for not killing me."

Xun Shaoyu waved his hand indifferently, and the guards immediately dragged Lu Mingda out of the military tent.

After a while, I heard "pop, pop, crack, pop" and a suppressed groan.

Xun Shaoyu was sitting at the public case and said: "Everyone, get up..."

All the captains and battalion officers shouted: "The superior is kind!"

Seeing this, the corners of Xun Shaoyu's mouth moved slightly.

"Everyone, Lu Mingda has lost his troops and generals. It seems that this Gaojiazhai cannot be broken in a short time!"

"If you have any ideas, please tell me."

"This……"

The generals looked left and right, not knowing how to speak.

"Come on, we'll be surrounded by a large army. If we can't attack for a long time, the county will be in trouble forever." A team leader held up the sword on his waist and took the lead.

"There can be no chaos in Jiangning. It must be resolved quickly and quickly, and cannot be delayed for too long."

Xun Shaoyu nodded slightly: "This statement is reasonable. Unexpected changes will occur later and we have to guard against them."

"It's incredible. Let's set fire to the mountain and burn the entire Erxiong Ridge to a white ground. Let's see how they can hold on to the stronghold through the dangerous conditions."

Xun Shaoyu was very moved when he heard this.

It was also a good choice for him to win the hard core of Erxiong Ridge at the lowest cost.

Thousands of lives, in his eyes, are just a series of cold numbers.

"No..."

"We are in late autumn now, and the weather is dry. Once the fire spreads... it will be too late!"

Xun Shaoyu pondered for a while, and said: "Quick battle, no delay, some necessary sacrifices are inevitable."

"The burning of the mountain was excessively cruel, and I would not have done it."

Xun Shaoyu's eyes flickered with a different color.

"General, I suddenly had an idea."

…………

On one side of the mountain urn,
Smoke and dust swept across, sand flew across,
"quick……"

"quick……"

The soldiers, carrying some simple tools, hurried back and forth
One by one, the soldiers took off their armor and clothes and worked hard at their jobs.

Ding ding ding!Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang!
For a time, the military camp area almost turned into a construction site.

These [-] soldiers are all strong and strong men who are bound by military discipline and are willing to work hard.

Therefore, in less than a day, shallow earth ditches gradually formed around the valley.

"Sir, can your method work?" Lumingda asked doubtfully from one side.

After a lot of collective effort yesterday, Xun Shaoyu suppressed many objections and acted arbitrarily.

The entire army was ordered to carry out extensive construction work around the valley roads and dig deep trenches.

These deep ditches are about three feet deep and nearly one foot wide. They surround the valley one after another and surround the valley very tightly.

In order to wait for Xun Shaoyu, Gaojiazhai's support was broken.

Xun Shaoyu said quietly: "In this world, how can we get the best of both worlds!"

"Success or failure is just a matter of choice. It's amazing, I'm just starting at the beginning but ending at the end. I'll just stay in Jiangning for a few more years!"

Lu Mingda smiled innocently and was speechless.

Don't look at it a few days ago, Xun Shaoyu looked selfless.In fact, this is just a scene between Xun Shaoyu, Zhao Wenyuan and Lu Mingda.

Just tacit understanding!

Deliberately killing the soldiers of wealthy families and cutting off the wings of wealthy families is both easy to say and unpleasant to hear.

Therefore, we can only use Lu Mingda to stage a bitter trick to offset the vigilance of the big players.

"If Gaojiazhai cannot surrender, we can only let him disappear forever."

Lu Mingda was not surprised by Xun Shaoyu's attitude.

He just looks rough, but he is not really a lump of elm, and he doesn't know how to adapt.

Having followed Xun Shaoyu in the army for several years, Lu Mingda was well aware of how hard-hearted Xun Shaoyu was.

Xun Shaoyu concentrated for a moment and stared at the ancestral orifice.

But on the stone mirror, there are strands of red energy floating, rising and falling one by one.

"Scattered flowers gradually become charming..."

He hummed softly.

Since he has a volume of Taiyue Sect's secret teachings in his hand, Xun Shaoyu still has some understanding of various Taoist techniques in this world.

Unless Taoists have five shortcomings and three shortcomings, and the way of cultivation in this world is to swallow up one's own destiny and focus on cause and effect, the mortal world will not be as free and carefree as the main world.

Xun Shaoyu was determined to join Taoism, embark on the path of Qi refining and practice, and become a Taoist for the rest of his life.

In his eyes, these Yin Hong Qi machines had a completely different look.

He knew that these Yin Hong Qi machines in front of him were nothing but ruthless murderous intentions.

These murderous intentions are either caused by a confrontation between two armies, or a fierce fighting, brewing a scene.

Ecstasy, gathering together but never leaving, very terrifying.

Ordinary Taoists, even if they take a look at it, they will die and their souls will be destroyed, and they will not be reborn.

Only he, with the stone mirror as a support, can survey the various qi dynamics of the heaven and earth without any scruples, without worrying about his own safety.

"It's up to people to make things happen, but it's up to God to plan things!"

I really think he is a good gentleman, and I don’t want to burn Hezhai to ashes.

It's just that Xun Shaoyu's power is weak, and he takes care of Yuan Chengqi's subordinates, so he can't openly expand his strength.

It would be bad if people thought he was ambitious for nothing.

And these tens of thousands of mountain people are undoubtedly a piece of ownerless fat, and they are fat and oily.

If only Xun Shaoyu could hold all these tens of thousands of tough and capable mountain people in his hands.

According to Zhao Wenyuan's words, the situation is already promising.

…………

Gaojiazhai,
Gao Wang looked puzzledly at the rolling sand and dust outside the valley road.

"what is that?"

Gao Wang frowned and stood on the village tower, overlooking the direction of the camp.

The valley road is steep. Gaojiazhai, a large village in Nuozhou, is located in the hinterland of the valley road. There is only one entrance at the beginning, and it is narrow and difficult to navigate.

This was the reason why his Gaojiazhai remained vicious despite being in troubled times.

Without tens of thousands of soldiers, it would be difficult to break through the valley entrance and enter Gaojiazhai.

"Come on... let's find out what Fang Guoduan is up to."

"I am sitting firmly in the stronghold, leaving you to your own devices. If you have any ability, just let your horse come over and I will take care of you one by one."

Gao Wang thought indifferently: "No matter what plans you have, kid, as long as I drag you to Gaojiazhai and nail you to Erxiong Ridge... hum... I will definitely let you die ugly. .”

At this moment, what is before Xun Shaoyu is to fight hard.

One or two martial arts masters can certainly break through the obstacles in the valley and reach the gate of the village.

However, the valley is narrow and the number of people it can accommodate is limited.There are eight hundred brave soldiers in Gaojia Village.
