Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

It was in the morning, the sun was shining high, smoke and dust were billowing outside Gansha City, black smoke was rising into the sky at the south city gate, and corpses were piled up in a thick layer under the city wall.

"hurry up!"

"Hurry up, don't be lazy."

The Wei army commanded the soldiers to move the corpses out of the city and transport them to the outside of the city for stacking. The corpses of the soldiers of the Wei army and the Jinxia army were separated and then poured with kerosene and burned to prevent plague.

A gust of breeze blew up, carrying the smell of blood and burning corpses on the ground into the city.

On the city wall, the royal flag of Jinxia has been replaced by the military flag of Wei. The tired Wei soldiers rested against the battlements and changed their guard in shifts.

Chen Mo sat on the top of the city facing the sun. Yuzhu wet the towel, knelt down beside Chen Mo, and wiped the blood from Chen Mo's face.

At this moment, Luo Yong, deputy general of the Guards, came forward and reported the casualties: "Reporting to your Majesty, our army killed more than 1,300 enemy soldiers and captured nearly 3,000 enemy soldiers. Our army suffered a total of 280 casualties. Seven people.”

Chen Mo waved his hand and said, "Have you found out the identity of that prince?"

"Your Majesty, the enemy prince who was beheaded by you is called Tuoba Hong. He is the younger brother of Jinxia Khan, a fifth-grade warrior, and his deputy Fu Chafu, a fourth-grade warrior." General Luo Yong learned about the situation. I told Chen Mo 510 times.

Chen Mo nodded and said: "Pass on my decree, let the Huotou Camp prepare breakfast immediately so that the soldiers can fill their bellies as soon as possible. In addition, let the soldiers seize the time to repair the destroyed South City Gate."

Such a large city can be used as one of their bases to march into Jinxia, ​​and can replenish military supplies on the spot and reduce domestic pressure.

"promise."

Luo Yong retreated to make arrangements.

"Where is the Imperial Master?" Chen Mo looked at Yuzhu.

"Treating the wounded in our army." Yuzhu said.

Chen Mo was marching at night or in a hurry, and he didn't bring any military doctors with him at all.

"Let's find all the doctors in the city to treat the wounded in our army. The national advisor is just one person. He will be busy for how long." Chen Mo said.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Master has sent someone to look for him. She will hold on until they come," Yuzhu said.

"Okay, I'll take a rest first. If there's something urgent, you can tell me later."

If he just stayed up late, Chen Mo could withstand it completely, but every time he attacked the city, he took the lead and consumed a lot of spiritual energy, so he had to rest and replenish it.

"Your Majesty, please sleep. I will watch over you."

Chen Mo nodded, found a comfortable position, and rested.

With the current state of Ziyang Huayuan Gong, Chen Moguang can restore his innate spiritual energy just by basking in the sun.

Of course, it is just recovery. If you want to practice, you can only use the purple energy of the sun in the morning.

…

Chen Mo was woken up by a burst of noise.

Chen Mo opened his eyes and found that he was covered with a cloak. Yuzhu was holding a long sword and stood upright, standing guard for him without moving a step.

"What happened? It's so noisy?" Chen Mo got up.

"Your Majesty, you're awake." Hearing Chen Mo's voice, Yuzhu turned around with a smile on her face and said, "It seems that the soldiers below violated military discipline and were caught by the military discipline team."

Chen Mo nodded, put his cloak on Yuzhu, and said, "What time is it now?"

"It's just time to arrive."

"You're tired too. Take the time to rest. I'll go take a look."

Yuzhu nodded, she was indeed a little tired.

Under the city, the Nalanyi people were watching the excitement with interest.

Seeing Chen Mo coming down, Nalan Yiren just glanced at him lightly.

Chen Mo called Luo Yong and asked what happened.

According to Luo Yong's explanation, it turned out that several soldiers of the trap guard fell in love with a beautiful woman when they were searching for the remnants of Jinxia's army in the city.

Because Jin Xia's dress is different from that of Da Wei, it is more open and revealing.

None of these soldiers could hold back and humiliated this beautiful woman.

The most important thing is that many Jinxia people saw it at that time.

After hearing this, Chen Mo frowned.

At the beginning of the establishment of the army, Chen Mo established strict military discipline.

Among them, it is strictly forbidden to drink alcohol to disturb the people and bully the people.

Once violated, if the circumstances are serious, the person shall be put to death.

As for the situation described by Luo Yong, those soldiers who violated the rules should be beaten with thirty military sticks.

Thirty military staffs don’t seem like much, and I even feel like I can get by just by gritting my teeth.

But if you really think so, you are totally wrong.

"Your Majesty, you see, when the Jinxia barbarians attacked us, they also insulted our people. These few people below are just treating others in their own way. How about your Majesty?" Luo Yong replaced those few The soldiers begged for love.

But before he finished speaking, Chen Mo glared at him.

"Military discipline is military discipline, and the law will not tolerate mercy." Chen Mo said, mainly because the rules cannot be broken. If these people don't deal with it, the people below will follow suit.

Of course, this is not Zhongzhou, and what Luo Yong just said makes sense. Could it be that only the Jinxia barbarians can bully us, and we can't bully us back, so these thirty military staffs can't really be beaten.

Also, it’s just a bad word to say.

If not many people see these soldiers committing this crime, then we can deal with it internally and make it a minor matter.

In short, Chen Mo is the manager and he has to follow the rules.

"Execute it publicly. You choose a few people to execute it personally. Remember to use gentleness." Chen Mo said.

Luo Yong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his face lit up: "I will do it right now."

"Wait a minute, you just need to know what's going on. Don't talk nonsense." Chen Mo said.

"Yes."

Luo Yong stepped back briskly.

The so-called soft power.

When a board is hit, people around can see that the board was hit with great force, and when it is hit, the sound is also very loud, but when it actually falls on the person being hit, it will only feel pain, not the kind of pain that is very painful, not only will the skin not be torn, but also will not cause internal injuries.

In this way, it can not only serve as a warning, but also calm the "people's hearts" in the city, and will not make the person being hit feel disheartened.

Soon after Luo Yong went down, Chen Mo thought of something again and said to the personal soldiers next to him: "Send someone to find all the women in the brothels and brothels in the city. In addition, all the rich families in the city will be confiscated. After the main force arrives, you can take off your armor and rest for a day, enjoy yourself, and all expenses will be borne by the court."

After the slap, it's time to give a sweet date.

It's said that the court will pay for it, but in fact it's almost like free prostitution.

"Yes."

The personal soldiers bowed and accepted the order.

...

It's just October.

This summer in the capital.

The deep sound of bells resounded throughout the imperial city.

All officials passed through the palace gate and came to the Jinluan Palace, where they attended the morning court as usual.

The Jinxia court learned the Song system, and in terms of the morning court, it was exactly the same as the Great Song Dynasty.

"If there is something, we will report it, and if there is nothing, we will leave the court." A eunuch said loudly above the Jinluan Palace.

"I have a report to make." Wanyan Xiaji stepped forward.

"Approved." Tuoba waved his hand on the dragon throne.

"Replying to the Khan, since my army was defeated in the last battle with the Great Song Dynasty, I have learned lessons and asked the talented people under me to imitate a batch of strange thunders based on the strange thunders of the Great Song Dynasty. Although the power is not as strong as the strange thunders of the Great Song Dynasty, if they are thrown by catapults, the lethality is also amazing.

I hope that the Khan will immediately issue an order to manufacture large-scale strange thunders based on this batch of imitated strange thunders so that they can be put into use in the army as soon as possible." Wanyan Xiaji said respectfully.

As soon as this was said.

It caused an uproar among the ministers.

Although they had never seen the strange thunder of the Song Dynasty (Wei Dynasty), they had heard of its great name.

The last time the Song army was defeated, Wanyan Xiaji attributed the key reason for the failure to the strange thunder.

It can be seen that the strange thunder is powerful.

Now hearing that a batch of imitations have been made, it is inevitable to be shocked.

Tuoba Hui also showed a happy expression and hurriedly said: "General Xiaji, do you really mean it?"

"I dare not deceive the Khan." Wanyan Xiaji said.

"Okay." Tuoba Hui patted the armrest of the dragon chair heavily, and stood up excitedly, saying: "General Xiaji is really worthy of being the pillar of my Jinxia."

"The Khan is too kind, I am terrified."

"It's approved. The large-scale imitation of strange thunder will be handed over to General Xiaji." Tuoba Hui said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wanyan Xiaji was about to accept the order and leave when a messenger shouted from outside the palace: "Report - Haiyan Pass is 800 miles away!"

When the ministers heard that it was 800 miles away, they were silent and turned their heads to look outside the palace.

Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar published this novel for the first time.

Soon, a messenger hurriedly walked into the palace, knelt on one knee under the golden steps, and said in a hurry:

"Report - On the night of September 23, the Wei army attacked Haiyan Pass at night, and the gate of Haiyan Pass was broken. Soon after, King Ning died in battle and Haiyan Pass fell."

"Wow!"

After the messenger finished speaking, the whole Jinluan Palace was filled with gasps.

Wanyan Xiaji, who was about to leave, staggered slightly, with a bit of surprise in his eyes, and hurriedly said: "What did you say?"

"The Wei army attacked Haiyan Pass at night, King Ning died in battle, and Haiyan Pass fell." The messenger was concise.

"Plop."

Tuoba Hui sat on the dragon chair with a look of loss and shock on his face.

Below, all kinds of noises from the ministers also sounded.

"Why would the Wei army attack Haiyan Pass at night?"

"Isn't there a plague in the north of Wei? How dare they attack us?"

"What does King Ning do for a living? How could Haiyan Pass be lost?"

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible"

...

But since it is an urgent message of 800 miles, it can't be fake.

Tuoba Hui was shocked for a moment, and said with all his strength: "Who is the commander of the Wei army, and how did King Ning die in battle?"

Just as the messenger was about to speak, another messenger's voice sounded outside the hall.

"Report - Gansha City is in an urgent message of 800 miles."

"Quick, let someone in."

Tuoba Hui said hurriedly.

The messenger quickly entered the hall with the same expression as the previous messenger.

"Report, on the morning of September 24, the Wei army attacked Gansha City and broke through the south gate. Soon after, Prince Yong and his deputy general died in battle, and Gansha City fell."

"Boom!"

An earthquake.

After the messenger finished speaking, the court was almost like an earthquake.

The panicked voices came one after another.

"On the morning of the 24th? That is to say, after the Wei army attacked Haiyan Pass at night, they went south to conquer Heishui City and Gansha City."

Wanyan Xiaji's face turned black. Gansha City was lost, so Heishui City must be gone.

"Cough cough."

Tuoba Hui coughed violently on the dragon chair and said sadly: "Brother Hong."

"Tell me quickly, who is the enemy commander? He can kill Prince Ning, so this person must be of the upper third rank." Wanyan Xiaji said.

The second messenger said: "This person claims to be the emperor of the Great Wei."

"The Great Wei. Emperor?" Wanyan Xiaji looked shocked.

When the ministers heard this, they started to discuss it.

"Is this a mistake? How could the emperor of a country be the first to lead troops to attack a city?"

"The capital of Wei is in Tianchuan, thousands of miles away from our Haiyan Pass. How could Chen Mo be there?"

"Are all the spies sent to Wei dead? The emperor of Wei attacked Haiyan Pass at night. How come we didn't receive any news in advance?"

"Wei is still plagued by the plague, and Chen Mo dares to lead his troops to attack us. Isn't he afraid that the plague will spread to his army?"

"..."

"Chen Mo." Tuoba Hui gritted his teeth and his voice was extremely cold: "General Xia Ji, I want him to die, die!"

Tuoba Hui was furious.

Wanyan Xia Ji nodded and accepted the order. In this case, he must lead his troops to resist.

Not only Tuoba Hui, but also he was very angry.

Chen Mo not only took down three of their cities, but also killed two princes. He was merciless and simply went too far.

"Khan, since the Emperor of Wei is personally leading the troops, whether for his own safety or for other reasons, he must have led a large number of troops, so the troops in Wei must be empty. I beg the Khan to send another person to lead the troops to attack Longyou in Wei." Wanyan Xiaji said.

"Yes." Tuoba Hui was angry, and he agreed to everything as long as he could kill Chen Mo.

...

Mid-October.

The 10,000 troops led by Chang'en arrived at Haiyan Pass.

A day later, he arrived at Gansha City with Zhao Liang and Sun Meng and joined Chen Mo.

Chen Mo ordered Chang'en and Cui Shuang to lead 5,000 troops to stay in Gansha City, and he led the remaining troops and baggage to continue advancing.

In three days, five cities were occupied, and a large amount of money, cattle, sheep and other livestock were seized.

The money could not be used in Jinxia for the time being, so people were sent to transport it back to the country.

As for cattle, sheep and other livestock, they were checked by the Nalan Yi people. After finding that they were not poisonous, they were slaughtered on the spot and provided to the whole army for food.

After a day of rest, the army continued to advance.

The next afternoon, they encountered a stubborn resistance from a tribe called the Grasshopper tribe in Jinxia. After Chen Mo's army shot and killed their leader, they still refused to surrender, and all the people, including the elderly, children and women, also resisted the army.

At night, the cricket tribe was slaughtered and a Jingguan was built.

Perhaps shocked by the fate of the Lobster tribe, two small tribes not far from the Lobster tribe led their people to surrender to the Wei Dynasty.

So far.

Chen Mo's army was less than 500 miles away from the capital of Jinxia.

The army stopped in a county called "Tianxing City".

Chen Mo knew that he could not go any further.

In less than ten days, he led his army to penetrate more than 300 miles alone.

If he did not clear the left and right, it was very likely that the enemy would cut off his retreat.

In addition, according to the scouts in front, the reinforcements from Jinxia had arrived.

Chen Mo planned to fight the enemy head-on.

For this reason.

That morning, Chen Mo and Nalan Yiren led a small group of people out of the city to check the terrain nearby and find a suitable place to start a war.

For Chen Mo, an open space is the best.
