I have been painting skin in the cemetery for fifteen years

Chapter 51 Record-breaking! Strangling

Let’s look back at Fu Tieyi’s policy review.

Something doesn't feel right.

Although majestic, it is too formulaic.

Mi Daoyuan's standard is of course extremely high, and he has a perfect grasp of the scale.

But...it seems to lack a soul.

This is also normal. Xu Enzheng's level is also extremely high, and the articles he writes are flawless and gorgeous.

But...it also lacks soul.

Master Yuan Hu looked back at the policy in his hand.

Watch it a second time, a third time.

My scalp is still numb and my whole body feels warm.

This policy theory is really so powerful.

Whether it is from emotion, to arguments, to the final philosophical sublimation.

All of them exceeded Fu Tieyi's strategies.

In comparison, Fu Tieyi's policy really seems lackluster.

The important thing about an article is not the gorgeous rhetoric, but the soul!

However, reading this policy paper was too emotional and exhausted a lot of energy. Lord Yuanhu was really tired and couldn't hold on.

He placed Fu Tieyi's paper on policy theory on the table next to him, and placed the essay on New Royalism in his hand on the examiner's desk.

"Full marks for this strategy, first place!"

"I won't read other strategies, no matter how excellent they are."

"No matter how good other strategies are, the deduction points must exceed three points, otherwise the specialness and uniqueness of this strategy will not be shown."

"It's a pity that the full score is only 100 points, otherwise I really want to give him 120 points."

"I'm going to bed, you continue."

Then, Lord Yuanhu went back to his room to sleep.

………………

Zhenhai City.

The second young master, Shen Wuyu, was pale and colorless, with a pale face. He was lying on the bed panting. A huge hole appeared in his chest, and blood flowed like a river, staining the whole bed red.

Several doctors were treating his wounds.

Shen Gong Ao's face was as solid as iron, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

"How is my son's injury?" Shen Gongao asked angrily.

The leading doctor said: "The second young master's life is probably fine, but his injuries are very serious. He will probably have to recuperate for a long time, and he will not be able to get out of bed for at least a few months."

Shen Gong Ao said sternly: "Send people to search the whole city. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you will still catch the assassin."

"yes!"

Immediately, several men in black quickly dispersed.

After a while, Zhenhai City Gate closed.

Thousands of warriors, like wolves and tigers, rushed into various inns and secret strongholds of various gangs.

A few hours ago, Shen Wuyu was assassinated again.

Four days ago, Shen Wuyu was assassinated on his way back to Zhenhai City.

Fortunately, he was able to escape due to his strong martial arts skills, but even so, dozens of people around him were killed and injured, and he himself was seriously injured.

After returning to Zhenhai City, I thought everything was fine.

But he didn't expect that he would be assassinated in the city.

But this time, the assassin's martial arts were even more powerful, like ghost lightning, and he directly dispatched more than a dozen first-rate masters.

The second son, Shen Wuyu, killed several assassins in a row, but was also seriously injured and his life was in danger.

Don’t know who it is? Such a big deal.

"No matter who it is? Even if it is the King of Heaven, I will find out the person behind this." Shen Gongao said word by word.

After treating Shen Wuyu's wounds, the three doctors withdrew.

Shen Gong Ao said: "If the outside world asks about the second master's injury, do you know what to say?"

The leading doctor said: "Let's just say the injury is fine."

After the doctor left, the father and son were left alone in the room.

Shen Gong Ao said: "Second brother, who do you think he is?"

Shen Wuyu said: "Don't make predictions, otherwise it will lead us in a wrong direction. No matter who assassinates us, the top priority is what we have to do. Ninety-nine steps, only the last step is left, and we are short of money, food and weapons. ”

Shen Gong Ao said: "Okay, one million silver, armors and weapons for thousands of people, here you go! I'll give you even if you break the pot and sell the iron."

Shen Wuyu said: "If it succeeds, our Shen Gong family can gain half of the territory and hundreds of thousands more people. No amount of money can buy this."

Shen Gongao's face twitched.

He paid an astonishing price for one million taels of silver, which was a huge number.

The Shen Gong family has a lot of income every year, but they spend more and even have a deficit every year.

I want to take out one million taels now, but I really can't, so the way to get the money this time is very dangerous.

The Moro tribe, a powerful tribe in the Dali Kingdom, was loyal to the former Dazhan Kingdom.

Now that the Dazhan Kingdom has been destroyed and replaced by the Dali Kingdom, the Moro people are still hostile to the Dali Kingdom.

Shen Wuyu planned for many years, created multiple civil wars among the Moro tribe, and sent dozens of undercover agents.

What kind of counterintuitive tactics and beauty tricks have been used over and over again, just to substantively occupy the entire Moro tribe and make them loyal to the Shen Gong family.

That is a total of 7,000 square kilometers of land, with a population of more than 300,000, and it is capable of conquering and fighting.

"My son has been operating in the Moro tribe for five years. He has spent countless amounts of food and money. He is about to succeed."

But at this time, Shen Wuyu was assassinated and almost died.

It was obvious that there was a pair of terrifying hands trying to prevent all of this from happening. At the most critical moment, Shen Wuyu's plan was to be stopped at all costs.

And right now.

There was a fierce sound of horse hooves outside.

Who is it? Dare to gallop in the Marquis's mansion?

After a while, there was a rushing sound outside.

"Lord, urgent military report, urgent military report!"

Shen Gongao hissed: "Come in."

A moment later, a warrior came in, knelt down and said: "My lord, there is a plague on the front line. Our army, the empire's army, has fallen ill in large numbers. The tribal coalition forces from the Dali Kingdom are marching northward to regain their lost land."

The so-called front line is the red earth city defense line.

This time Shen Gong Ao's southern expedition not only defeated the barbarian coalition forces of the Dali Empire, but also seized 12,000 square kilometers of land from the Dali Empire.

According to the rules, a quarter of the land, that is, 3,000 square kilometers, will become the new territory of the Shen Gong family.

So during this period, officials from the imperial court have been measuring the land around Red Earth City.

However, many people inside and outside the court were no longer willing to expand Shen Gong Ao's power, so the measurement work was delayed again and again.

now……

Such a huge change has occurred.

A plague broke out in the army. The barbarian coalition forces from the Great Li Empire took the opportunity to go north to regain the lost land.

The warrior said: "My lord, what should I do? The eldest son asked me to ask for your order? Should we fight, defend, or withdraw?"

Shen Gongao's face twitched.

Once the troops withdraw, all the territory they finally won will be vomited back.

But if the troops are not withdrawn, the Shen Gong family's private army may face huge risks.

Once this army is destroyed, the Shen Gong family's wealth will be completely lost.

Without the army, the Shen Gong family would have nothing.

Shen Gongao closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then said: "I will rush to the front line immediately."

"No!" Shen Wuyu sat up suddenly, the wound on his chest burst open and blood gushed out.

"Father, you must not leave Zhenhai City." Shen Wuyu said: "This is a strangulation of our family. The enemy is not outside, but within the empire."

Shen Gongao calmed down immediately.

Shen Wuyu said: "They took advantage of third brother's righteousness to steal thirty large warships from us."

"They assassinated me twice in succession, just to completely destroy my layout in the Moro tribe."

"The eldest brother led the family's army and encountered the plague. They strangled us from three sides and attacked our three brothers together."

"There are real moves here and there are fake moves. They are both fake and real. They are extremely dangerous."

Shen Gong Ao said: "Once I leave Zhenhai City, I will have fallen into the trap of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. At least for now, the core of our family is still Zhenhai City."

Shen Wuyu said: "Father is wise, once you leave, the enemy will attack Zhenhai City."

Shen Gong Ao said: "Even the enemy's target is Zhenhai City. Once I leave and lose thirty warships, the next thing I may face is the pirate Jade Rakshasa army attacking Zhenhai City."

Shen Wuyu said: "If Zhenhai City is lost and the Mi family sends troops to recapture Zhenhai City, who should own this city? We originally borrowed this city from the Mi family."

Shen Wuyu was right, this was a joint strangulation of the Shen Gong family.

Strangling from three directions.

If he, Shen Gong Ao, leaves Zhenhai City, he will be ambushed on all sides.

Shen Wuyu said: "Father, my eldest brother is as talented as you when it comes to military matters. You give him full authority. I firmly believe that he will be able to keep the family's army. No one else may do better than him. "

"As for the layout of the Moro tribe, we have already paid an astronomical price. At this most critical moment, we cannot give up all our efforts and fall short. I will take charge of the overall situation."

Shen Gong Ao said: "You are so seriously injured, how can you leave?"

Shen Wuyu said: "You don't need me to go into battle to kill the enemy? Lend your fifth uncle to me for a while, and I will set off secretly tonight. I can't let anyone know, not even my mother. Just let everyone feel, I stayed in Zhenhai City to recuperate."

Shen Gongao's eyes were filled with heartache. How could he bear it when his son was so seriously injured?

Shen Wuyu said loudly: "Father, I'm just fighting for my family, how can I have the kindness of a woman?"

After that, he coughed one after another and coughed up blood.

"How much manpower and material resources have we spent on the Moro tribe for so many years? Once it falls into the hands of the enemy, there will be no peace in the south of our territory." Shen Wuyu said: "My son has a hard life, and he probably won't die. of."

Shen Gongao said slowly: "Okay, I will give you the fifth uncle."

Shen Wuyu said: "We will deliver these thirty warships after the results of the city's big exam are announced. That is the most dangerous moment for Zhenhai City, and anything can happen. But as long as you stay in Zhenhai City, there is nothing you can do." No one will be afraid of your domineering name if they dare to come.”

Shen Gongao closed his eyes and thought for a full quarter of an hour.

Then, he opened his eyes and said to the samurai who reported the news: "Xiaoqi, go and tell your elder brother that he has full authority over the family's army. Whether to withdraw or defend, whether to fight or make peace, is all decided by him. I will immediately come to my side. Send the best doctors and send a lot of medicine."

This Xiao Qi is also a member of Shen Gong's family and one of Shen Gong Ao's adopted sons.

The warrior said: "Yes, my lord."

Then, without stopping at all, he immediately left the Marquis Mansion and rushed towards the frontline military camp.

Night time!

Shen Wuyu, who was seriously injured, secretly left Zhenhai City under the protection of Shen Gongwu and went to the Moro tribe bordering the south.

Shen Gong Ao's eyes were hot, looking at the night where Shen Wuyu disappeared, and his eyes were looking towards the north in the direction of Yingzhou.

"My son, your two brothers are fighting for the lives of the family. You must be sensible and sensible!"

Shen Wuyu felt that he had gone far enough and his father should not be able to see him.

"Ugh..." He suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood.

……………………

In the examination room of Yingzhou City.

Three examiners looked at the list in front of them.

The three subjects had been marked, and the big list was in front of them.

There were only 600 people on the list.

A total of 8,000 people took the exam, and only the three main subjects eliminated 7,400 people.

Yuan Hu stared at the scores of the top three.

Although it was expected, it still felt numb.

The first place was Shen Wuque, 300 points.
