Chapter 42 Ghost Festival
Half of July, Day of the Dead, Obon and Human Sacrifice.
Burn paper ingots to commemorate the souls of the dead, and place river lanterns to express your thoughts.
On July 12, the 13th year of Hongye's reign in the Wei Dynasty, Jing'an captain Jiang Ren issued a military order to prepare for war, and in just two days thirteen warriors from each county were gathered.
On July 15, the day of the Ghost Festival, the captain of Jing'an marched into Jing'an City with three thousand troops without waiting for reinforcements from the state capital.
There are 500 soldiers in the Wuwei camp, 300 soldiers in the Shesheng camp, 300 soldiers in the Xiaoqi camp, 1,800 auxiliary soldiers, and more than 100 subordinates of the divine arm and black armor.
Zhou Yuan looked at the secret treasure in his hand and felt that there would be a big battle next.
[Weapon: Shooting Tiger Bow]
[Introduction: The skill of carving insects is displayed in front of the door, and the man who shoots tigers is invited to the seat; the lantern riddle is also a lantern tiger, and the solution to the riddle is to shoot tigers. 】
[Effect: The bow draws five stones and six hundred kilograms. After locking the target, it will have a concealment-breaking effect. The person hit by the arrow will suffer a concealment-breaking judgment.
Note: The lower the target's health and level, the stronger the invisibility breaking effect. 】
[Weapon: Evil Suppressing Arrow]
[Introduction: Wealth is the source of nourishment, and evil is the source of harm. Suppress evil, avoid evil, and eliminate disasters and solve problems. 】
[Effectiveness: Suppress evil and exorcise demons, eradicate monsters, and purify the aura. It can directly attack Yin spirit creatures and cause additional damage to evil spirit creatures. 】
The combination of Tiger Shooting Bow and Evil Suppressing Arrow is very effective against painted ghosts.
The fact that there are such highly targeted weapons in the Jing'an Army's warehouse proves that Captain Jing'an has long been prepared to clean up the ghosts.
In the past, spies from the state government and the army had limited targets for suspicion, but Captain Jing'an could still endure it.
But this time, the painted-skinned ghosts blocked the streets and patrolled the city, ostracizing Shangguan, which had exceeded the limit of Captain Jing'an's tolerance.
He was worried that if he didn't take action, Painted Skin Ghost would use political decrees to replace the people in the city on a large scale.
“Today is the Ghost Festival, the day when the gates of hell open and the souls of the dead return home.
No matter why the ghosts in the city suddenly turn from darkness to light, today must be the day when they are rampant. "
In fact, what Jiang Ren, the captain of Jing'an, is most worried about is not the ghost trouble in the city, but the combination of the ghost trouble and the special time of the Ghost Festival.
It is recorded in the Weidu Zhenfa Book that during the Zhongyuan Period, the Festival of Yin Ghosts comes in the middle of July, and Yin ghosts escape from the secret realm.
In other words, on the Hungry Ghost Festival, the secret realm will temporarily lose its restraint on the ghosts, and the ghosts in the secret realm can freely enter the human world.
Normally, Jingan City has never had a ghost disaster, but this time the ghosts in the city moved strangely, and the Ghost Festival was approaching, so the captain of Jingan could not help but ignore it.
Therefore, he not only summoned warriors from various counties, but also sent a letter of request for help to the governor of Huaizhou, the state capital.
It means that the reinforcements from Huaizhou Prefecture have not yet arrived, otherwise Jiang Ren would not mind besieging the county with troops and forcefully interrupting the connection between the Ghost Festival and the ghost trouble in the city.
"Order, the capital of Jing'an, Zhou Yuan, holds the military flag and a hundred light cavalry, controls the city gate, and welcomes the Chinese army to enter."
"promise."
As a military attaché who could use the Three Talents Seal and had warrior-like abilities, Zhou Yuan was indeed suitable as the forward of the Chinese army.
After receiving the order, he rode into the Qingqi camp, found the captain in the camp, ordered more than a hundred Qingqi, and headed straight for Jing'an City.
Thumb, thump, thump...
When the galloping light cavalry arrived near the county town, the guards guarding the city noticed something unusual.
It is unrealistic to expect the guards who maintain law and order and patrol gates to respond quickly.
The panicked crowd hurriedly gave way to the official road, and the panicked guards drove the people inside and outside the city gate road to close the city gate.
Whoosh, whoosh.
Two heavy arrows shot through the city gate bolts in the hands of the guards, causing them to throw the hardwood door bolts to the ground in fright.
"Jing'an Colonel has an order to open the south gate of the city and welcome the Chinese army into the city.
The remaining three gates enter and exit normally. Anyone who fabricates lies to cause panic or takes the opportunity to cause chaos will be executed. "
"That idiot, look what kind of flag this is. Do you want to lock our Jing'an Army outside the city?"
Although Zhou Yuan fired two arrows in a row to prevent the city guards from closing the city gate, he still spoke of business.
The accompanying Qingqi couldn't do it anymore. He opened his mouth and cursed, which made the city guards stunned for a while.
"General, don't be angry. We are all brothers. Didn't we receive orders from the county office? How can we not be afraid when we see the cavalry galloping."
When everyone at the city gate saw that it was one of their own, they hurriedly straightened their leather armor and ran out to explain, hoping that these soldiers would not cause trouble for them, the city guards.
"The military order is here. Please report it to the governor and prime minister immediately. The Jing'an Army has been ordered to enter the city to defend the city."
Zhou Yuan threw the black token with red writing in his hand to the city gate so that he could report it to the superior officer to avoid being punished by military law for letting him go without permission.
"Okay, general, wait a moment, I'm going to find our governor."
After the farce, the people near the South City Gate calmed down.
For them, since it was the Jing'an Army that came, there was nothing to fear.
Because many men from ordinary families in the city also serve in the Jing'an army.
To round things off, the Jingan Army is actually the people of Jingan. It is just that one side is training with weapons and the other is busy with life.
In particular, military attachés would buy houses, marry wives and have children in the city, which greatly increased the sense of identity of the people in the city.
Therefore, when the Chinese infantry and auxiliary soldiers arrived, some people dared to go up and say a few words.
The military attache who was familiar with the process immediately organized additional soldiers to guard the official road, allowing Chinese soldiers to enter the city first.
"Zhou Yuan, there is something unusual in the city."
"Captain, there is nothing going on in the city. The gangsters who were patrolling the streets dispersed on their own as soon as they saw the cavalry entering the city."
"You still know how to hide. It seems that the situation is not completely out of control."
Captain Jing'an rode into the city, met the county governor and the county prime minister first, and then sent soldiers to take over the four gates of the city.
The soldiers who were changing guards still followed the principle of being allowed to enter and leave, and did not care that the ghosts in the city would take the opportunity to escape.
Captain Jing'an wanted no big trouble on the Ghost Festival. If the ghosts left the city, it would be exactly what he wanted.
The Jing'an army entered the city in the morning, and the soldiers of each camp completed the replacement of the guard in the afternoon.
Then, Captain Jing'an Jiang Ren distributed eight teams, led by warriors from each county, to execute the ghost hunting order.
Zhou Yuan was also awarded five divine arms, twenty black armor soldiers, and 50 assistant soldiers because he had skills similar to warriors, to carry out the task of retreat.
"Black Tiger Gang? It seems that the spies in the city are more concerned about forces, not individuals."
The military order Zhou Yuan received was to examine the Black Tiger Gang. There were no detailed names in the document, but it was recorded that many Black Tiger Gang members were abnormal and should be arrested and blood-pierced for body examination.
The entire arrest operation focused on small and medium-sized forces in various markets in the city, and did not affect the painted skins hidden in the homes of ordinary people and the painted skins of county officials.
"Captain, don't you want to investigate in detail? Without the cooperation of officials, ghosts cannot block the streets and patrol the city."
"It is impossible to investigate in detail, just destroy the middle layer.
The upper layer is good at avoiding profit and the lower layer is afraid of trouble and hides. Only hitting the middle layer can make them afraid to act and unable to concentrate their strength to resist."
"Zhou Yuan, the warriors in each county have their own laws. You are young and energetic, so don't mess around. The guilty people can be handed over to the assistant soldiers for arrest. Don't take the opportunity to kill.
Otherwise, when blood flows like a river, we, the soldiers who suppress it, will also become bloodthirsty evil ghosts in the eyes of the people.
If in the end, we do worse than a group of painted skins, it is better not to enter the city."
"Yuan received the order, only those who resist and escape, and arrest those who obey orders and surrender."
