Chapter 15 Chapter Three

That voice was full of majesty, but Shining's blood was high, so how could he care about the authority of the officials?Loudly said: "Yes, I'm going to ask why!" The voice sternly said: "Take it down! Kill them together!" Dozens of armored soldiers grabbed Shi Ning from left and right, and the man sneered, "If you don't know how to obey military discipline, you don't deserve to ask why!" Shi Ning only felt a sullen feeling in his chest, he really couldn't figure out why he had to be beheaded even though the food and grass had arrived?Could it be that the delay due to natural disasters is also human fault?He said angrily: "I don't accept it!"

The voice said: "This seat is talking about military power, I don't ask you to obey. But you must die with regret, so I will make an exception once!" There was a sound of "choking langlang", a bundle fell out of the golden tent and landed in front of Shining. "Open it and see!" Shi Ning squatted down, opened the bag, and saw that there was a waist card in the middle, which proved the identity of each soldier.There are about two hundred of them in this bundle.Shi Ning raised his head suspiciously. The voice said in a deep voice: "There is a lack of food in the army, and the food was cut off the day before yesterday. The army's morale was shaken, and General Cao Wei led 30,000 people to fight in order to cheer people up. I refused, but I hoped that the food and grass would not arrive, and the army's morale gradually weakened." , the only way to fight back is to fight to prevent everyone from being hungry and numb. At that time, the Mongolian soldiers from the Tatars will attack and the territory will be hard to protect. I have no choice but to agree. But the soldiers are hungry and the combat power is greatly reduced. This battle..."

He kept silent for a moment, and said: "The badges in this package, everyone has the rank of lieutenant general or above, and no one is cowardly and sneaky. They all died in battle! They died in battle!" He was extremely angry, and his voice gradually raised: "Who is all this because of?" Lieutenant General Zheng Ming trembled and lowered his head, not daring to look up.Shi Ning was also shocked.Two hundred soldiers, how many soldiers died?This battle... But he raised his head and said: "The wind disaster in the desert is hard to resist with manpower, how can General Zheng be able to resist it? It is unreasonable for the General to make such a judgment!"

The general sneered and said, "Are you still not convinced? Zheng Ming, let me ask you, is the time limit I gave you enough or not?" Zheng Ming shook his body like sifting chaff, kowtowed and said: "The general's deadline is enough." The general snapped, "Then why the delay?" Zheng Mingdao: "This subordinate met hungry people on the road, and couldn't bear it, so he shared some of the dry food with them, so it was delayed for several hours before encountering a strong wind. This subordinate deserves to die, and this subordinate is willing to apologize with death!"

The general said: "But knowing Xiaoren but forgetting military discipline, is it my generation of soldiers who did it? Come on, behead!" Zheng Ming's face was ashen, and he let the people around him drag him around. The general said: "The rest of the food transporters didn't know how to persuade them, so they killed them all!" Everyone outside the tent agreed with a bang, and took down the soldiers transporting food. Shining yelled: "Stop...stop!" The general sneered and said: "Dead wood cannot be carved! You are still not convinced yet? This military discipline is not set up for one person, how can you let it go!"

Shining said loudly: "General, please listen to the words of the villain! The crime of the villain is unavoidable, but it is better to serve the country and die on the battlefield than to die by the sword of the general! Please allow us to fight the Tartars!" , the servant will die without complaint!" The general was silent for a moment, and said: "The food and grass have just arrived, and the men and horses will not be fully fed, so it is not suitable for fighting, so I retreated ten miles to recuperate." Shining said: "The general retreats blindly, and the Tatars are arrogant. They may not be able to take advantage of the victory and pursue them. At that time, our army will be full of support, and I'm afraid it will be even more embarrassing. Why don't we send us, who are waiting to die, to challenge the Tatars? To divert their attention, the army took the opportunity to recuperate. The villain is willing to do something useful with his body waiting to die, and die on the battlefield with the might of the general!"

When he said these impassioned words, Zheng Ming and the others couldn't help but feel agitated. They all knelt down and said loudly: "I beg for your permission, General!" The general pondered and said: "Your worries are not unreasonable... I will allow you to perform crimes and make meritorious deeds. If you can hold the Tatars for a day or two, you will not be held accountable for your crimes. Remember, you have done something, You can't just die." Shining, Zheng Ming and the others were overjoyed when they heard the General's tone loosened, and knelt down to thank him.

The general waved his hand and said, "You guys go!" Shining and Zheng Ming led more than 200 soldiers who were holding food, left the camp, and went to Tatar City ten miles away.The road was desolate and bleak, with the chill of Yi Shuihan. Zheng Ming took a step, sighed, and thought of the Tatar army, which was more than a hundred thousand, and his own two hundred soldiers, wouldn't they be hitting a stone with an egg?The face can not help but be very sad. Shi Ning didn't have any ideas in his mind either.But you can't die in the big camp, and let's talk about escaping.Why doesn't he know that Tatar is powerful and invincible by a hundred people, but what can he do?

The wind seems to be stronger, there is no yellow sand here, and the wind blows close to the ground, cutting people's faces like knives. Suddenly there was a flash of red clothes in the wind, Shining exclaimed in surprise: "Red girl." The red girl was like a petal of fairy fragrance, falling gracefully from the air, and said with a smile: "You saw this great general, how do you feel?" Shining said: "He is cruel and ruthless, killing people like hemp!" The red girl nodded and said with a smile: "That's the time for you to make meritorious deeds and approach him. I have a story, will you listen to it?"

Shining naturally had to listen, and the red girl said: "There is a very old story in our hometown. It is said that there is a big country on the far side of the sea. Their military strength is very strong. The enemy besieged After a full ten years, the city could not be captured. Later, the enemy thought of a way to pretend to retreat, leaving behind a huge wooden horse. Seeing that the enemy retreated, the country carried the wooden horse back to the city as a trophy. , The whole country celebrated. But no one thought that there were heroic soldiers of the enemy hidden in the wooden horse. After everyone fell asleep, the soldiers sneaked out and opened the city gate. Just like that, he was defeated by a wooden horse."

She fixed her full eyes on Shining's face, and said with a slight smile, "Do you understand?" Shining pondered, chewing on the meaning of every word in Hong girl's words, and finally, slowly said: "I understand." The red girl smiled and said, "Then I can go." Another gust of wind blew by, and she was gone.She is like a fairy in the sky, coming and going suddenly, hard to find.Shining opened his mouth, but finally closed it. He seemed to have something to ask her, but he still didn't say it. Zheng Ming kept staring at them, and at this moment quietly asked: "Who is this girl?" Shining was silent, did not answer, suddenly said: "Let's go back." Zheng Ming was startled, and said, "What? Go back?" Shi Ning smiled slowly: "That's right, go back!" His eyes seemed to be shining with a blade-like edge, and his body was also full of a strange self-confidence. At this moment, he actually had a power that made people admire him involuntarily! As soon as they stepped into the gate of the camp, the general's voice sounded: "What, you repented?" Shining's heart was shocked, and only then did he realize that the general was actually a master with extremely high cultivation base.It is the first time Shi Ning has met such a master who can identify who a person is just by hearing ability!He said slowly, "I've come to ask the general for a few things." The general pondered, and said, "Speak." Shining said: "I ask the general to withdraw another ten miles." The general snorted heavily, and said, "If there is anything else, you can talk about it together!" Although the might of the great general was just a loud snort, Zheng Ming and the others had already changed their colors.Shining didn't care about it, and he talked eloquently: "I want the general to give me 4,000 dans of food, and in addition, I want 200 of the best war horses!" As soon as these words came out, even Zheng Ming was taken aback.The general didn't speak anymore, after a long time, he said slowly: "I just checked the list, you are not in the army." Shining nodded. The general said: "Withdrawing ten miles further, the army's morale may not be shaken, but food and horses are more related to combat power, and the lives of the army are at stake. I shouldn't entrust them to someone I don't understand." Shining nodded again. The general smiled faintly and said, "But I promise you!" Shining lifted his spirits and said, "Thank you General!" The general said: "It's good to do it yourself, I'll wait for your good news." As soon as the general's order was passed on, the camp was filled with the sound of horns.The soldiers all pulled out their camps and retreated.In an instant, only a mess and two hundred carts of grain and grass were left in the camp. Each cart has 20 dans, a total of 400 dans of grain and grass, and Zheng Ming tried his best to raise half of the proceeds.Next to the grain and grass, there are two hundred war horses with complete saddles. Shining didn't say until the army was gone, "Brothers, let's go on the road too." Holding a horn in his hand, he said to the crowd, "Do you have this?" Zheng Mingdao: "When escorting the food and grass, we prepared some to declare that this is military food." Shining said: "You look for them in the camp, the more the better." The crowd searched for half an hour, and they made up the numbers, and there were more than one hundred horns.Shining nodded and said, "Not too much, let's go!" Everyone got on their horses, Shining took the lead, and charged towards the city of Tatar.Zheng Ming looked back at the grain and grass, and said, "What about these grain carts?" Shining said: "Put it here first, it will be useful for him!" Zheng Ming stopped asking.The horses traveled quickly, and after a while, they saw the city of Tatar in the distance.Shi Ning signaled everyone to hide their figures, took out the horn and blew it vaguely.Zheng Ming asked in shock, "This is the clarion call to withdraw troops. Aren't you afraid that the Tatars will know?" Shi Ning said with a leisurely smile, "I just want to let them know!" More than a hundred horns blew, and along with the wind, they floated into the city of Tatar.In the distance, the flags in the city were billowing, and after a while, the city gate opened wide, and Tatar soldiers rushed out like a tide.Shining resolutely said: "Back!" He led all the people on their horses, the general withdrew to the south, but he went northwest.They were all selected horses when they sat down, and the Tatar soldiers were left behind in a short time.Shining boarded a small hill and ordered the crowd to blow the horn again, and at the same time scattered clothes, weapons and so on all over the ground. They rushed all the way, and went up to another hill. Looking from a distance, they saw the Tatar soldiers happily picking up the things they had thrown away, yelling something, and chasing after them with more energy.Shining secretly rejoiced, and ordered everyone to move forward. This road made a big circle, and finally returned to the place where two hundred grain trucks were stored.The sun has set to the west, and the afterglow is gradually sinking.Shining pointed to the south, and said: "Go quickly and find the general. He said that I will open the gate of the city at three o'clock, and everyone will attack in one fell swoop!" Zheng Ming was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked, "How do you open the city gate?" Shi Ning smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this." Zheng Ming had some doubts in his heart, but his life was saved by Shining, so he didn't ask any more questions, and went as he said.Shining sat on the ground, summoned his inner strength, and blew the horn so loudly that he could hear the sound of the army running in the distance. He quietly hid the horn in his arms, separated the food and grass with his hands, and hid inside. His kung fu is extremely high, this energy penetrates directly into the deepest part of the grain, even the most shrewd soldiers can't see the clue.He circulated his zhenqi slowly, his breathing became extremely long, his whole body was relaxed, and he didn't even make a sound, waiting quietly for the Tatar soldiers to come. He calculated that after such a long journey, the Tatar soldiers must have been slack, and it was too late. After they saw so much food and grass, they would definitely not chase forward, but took the food and grass as trophies , transported back to the city.Then he also entered the city safely, and only waited for the door to be opened at the third watch to let people go. Since the general is so short of food, the Tatars must not be much better. These grains and grass are enough to arouse their greed. He was right. Those Tatar soldiers had been chasing him for a long time. At first they still had some clothes and weapons, but then they gradually lost everything.But the annoying sound of the horn kept lingering in his ears, as if he could catch up with him by turning around the hill.After running like this for four hours, when they saw so many grain trucks, they immediately burst into cheers, rushed up and hugged them and shouted. The grain cart moved slowly, being pushed towards the city by the Tatar soldiers.Shining secretly rejoiced, but he acted cautiously, his qi sank lower, his body was more relaxed, and he never showed any flaws. After walking for more than half an hour, I heard more Tatar soldiers cheering and knew that they had entered the city.This war has lasted for too long. Once they saw the hope of victory, the Tatar soldiers were extremely happy, just like the story of the red girl, and the city celebrated for a long time. Shining listened quietly in the grain cart, suddenly he felt a little confused: Is it right for me to do this? Are these Tartars not human?What will happen to their fate after the city is broken?Shi Ning didn't even dare to think about it! But at this moment, he couldn't help but regret it, the voice of the people gradually subsided, and he waited for another half an hour, until he was sure that there was no one outside, and then slowly got out of the grain cart. The moon is full tonight. Shining touched his body, Wuyang Sword was still there, and his heart couldn't help but feel much more at ease. Suddenly, there was a soft laugh from above his head.Shining was startled, his footsteps staggered, he slid two feet away, and saw a man in white standing on top of the grain cart he was hiding in. The shining moonlight shone on him, and he was like a well-carved piece of white jade, crystal clear and translucent. He wore an extremely wide robe that almost covered his entire body, only showing a small half of his face and his sword hilt. The hilt of the sword was inlaid with a huge piece of beautiful jade, which flowed faintly under the moonlight, reflecting a ripple-like halo.The halo light shone on his face, and his face was also like white jade, delicate and flawless without any blemish. It was freezing cold and the wind was fierce, so he was barefooted. Although he was stepping on grain and grass, his feet were like a pair of white jade, extremely delicate, like a woman. He looked at Shining leisurely, smiled leisurely: "I'm guessing, when will you come out." Shi Ning was secretly startled, he didn't expect that others would see through his secret behavior.Then isn't this person's martial arts already inconceivable?When he thought of this, he couldn't help feeling very discouraged. Ever since he practiced Zifu Zhenqi and Flying Blood Sword Art, he has never been really hostile to anyone, and he actually has no confidence in his heart.At this time, thinking of the opponent's superb martial arts, he lost his self-confidence, and he couldn't help but become that vagrant who robbed porridge and was chased and beaten. The man in white said leisurely: "The autumn wind is clear and the moon is night, the emperor becomes Baiyulou...you can call me Baiyulou." His voice was a little hoarse, but also a little gentle, Bai Yulou's eyes were fixed on him, but there was still a gentle smile on his face: "I'm going to kill you!" His man suddenly shot into the air, a silver light flashed, his sword was out of its sheath, and he slashed straight down towards Shining! His sword was also cut like a whole piece of white jade, the whole body was pure white, crystal clear, and looked extremely rare.This sword seems to roll up the moonlight all over the sky, and it is not the sword that strikes Shi Ning, but the moon, the moonlight. The moonlight shines everywhere and is irresistible. With Ju Shuiyue in hand, the heart of heaven and the moon are self-circulating. This sword?How to block it?Shi Ning was even more confused.He suddenly discovered that no matter what he could not display such an elegant swordsmanship. Maybe he is destined to be an inelegant person? This sword hit not only his people, but also his heart, his spirit, and his beliefs! The moonlight suddenly became brighter, mixed with this sword, like a silver snake flashing, it rushed to Shining.Shining struggled to retreat, staggered, and suddenly stumbled and fell out.It was also this fall that allowed him to escape the fluttering sword moves in the sky. Bai Yulou smiled lightly, and waited for Shining to stand up, before the sword light flickered, and another sword flew out. This sword is sharper and more elegant.This is hardly a sword, but Wang Xizhi's pen and Yu Boya's qin, which are famous all over the world and are unmatched in beauty. Shining hurriedly drew out the sword, with a "choke" sound, the Wuyang sword blocked the white jade sword, he felt a strong tide rushing towards him, and he could hardly stand up. Bai Yulou focused his eyes on the Wuyang Sword, and said calmly: "It's a pity that the peerless sword is in the hands of ordinary people. Don't desecrate it anymore!" His hand suddenly strengthened, the sword light flickered, and the true energy circled, shaking out wave after wave.Shining couldn't handle it anymore, Wuyang Sword flew out of his hand! Bai Yulou put on an elegant posture and said with a smile, "You are not worthy to use this sword." His words were soft and his posture was very gentle, but Shining suddenly felt a burst of anger welling up in his chest.With the index and middle fingers of his right hand together, he suddenly knocked on the white jade sword.There was only a "hum" sound, the Bai Yujian was bent by this finger, and shot straight back.Bai Yulou was frightened, and hastily increased his true energy, but unexpectedly, Bai Yujian was extremely sharp, and a few locks of his hair were cut off with one strike! Shining's body flew up like a big crane, soaring into the air and holding the Wuyang sword in his hand, he let out a clear whistle! The anger in his heart seemed to be vented in this scream, his body rolled over, covering the moonlight like a dark cloud, and stabbing down towards Baiyulou with a volley of sword! Flying blood swordsmanship, originally focused on the blood of the controller.Shi Ning's sword was in line with the sword's intention, and the true energy of the Zifu came out from Wuyang's sword edge, turning into a cloud of purple mist, screaming angrily, and slashed at Baiyulou! Bai Yulou's hair was shaved, and he couldn't help being furious, but the essence of his swordsmanship was elegance, the quieter his heart was, the more powerful the swordsmanship would be.When he got angry at this moment, his sword skills were discounted.The white jade sword vibrated continuously, stabbing upwards. But the moonlight was completely blocked by Shining's body, and the white jade sword was somewhat dimmed.Shining and Wuyang sword seemed to be integrated, and they fell down like Mount Tai, and Baiyulou suddenly felt a trace of fear for no reason! The violent zhenqi burst in anger and exploded beside the two of them.Shining slashed at Bai Yujian with one sword, and his moves didn't stop. He followed the sword and made sixteen sword strikes in an instant, each of which slashed heavily at Bai Yujian's body! The Zi Mansion's true energy rose up, like a huge net, enveloping the Baiyu Tower.He was forced to have no choice but to take every sword hard.Wuyang Sword is the most famous sword in the world, extremely sharp. After the sixteen swords were cut, Bai Yulou let out a mournful and long howl. The white jade sword is dotted with spots, full of pits and hollows cut out, it is no longer in shape.Shining smiled and said: "It seems that you are worthy of this sword!" Bai Yulou raised his eyes suddenly, his eyes were full of anger, and he said loudly: "I want to kill you!" His body suddenly rushed up with incomparable speed, this move was so fast that it was unimaginable, Shi Ning was shocked, and instinctively swung his sword!I saw his long sleeves tremble, and there was a hissing sound in the air, and a very thin and long black snake jumped out from his sleeve, with a crisp crackling sound, the snake's mouth opened rapidly, and it went all the way. It split to the abdomen, and bit the Wuyang Sword! The snake's strength was so great that it bit Wuyang Sword forcefully, Shining couldn't stab it all at once. He was taken aback and called out, "You..." Taking advantage of this moment of delay, Bai Yulou has already rushed to Shining's body, and hit Shining's chest firmly with both palms! Shining felt his chest twitch, and Bai Yulou's palm hit him like overwhelming.He yelled loudly and spat out a mouthful of blood.Bai Yulou couldn't dodge in time, his face was sprayed all over by the mouthful of blood, and his eyes turned red immediately, making him unable to see clearly.He was taken aback, and quickly backed away, Shining raised his true energy, and slashed down with his sword! The black snake was forcibly torn in two by his strong force, and following Shining's sword movement, it slammed heavily on the ground, smashing a big hole immediately. Shining stared at Bai Yulou with eyes like needles, and said sharply, "Where did you get this snake?" Bai Yulou felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, forced a sneer and said, "What's the matter with you?" His figure swayed and retreated quickly: "We will meet again!" Shining looked at his back, pondered, a look of pain appeared on his face, and then he looked in the direction of the city gate.
