Northern frontier.
Jiuyuan County Great Wall area.
After Meng Tian arrived at the Great Wall defense line, he resumed his garrison here.
High in the sky!
White clouds float by.
The sun shines down.
In the commander's tent of the Chinese army.
Meng Tian was conducting a sand table drill with his generals. A huge table next to him was filled with calculation papers, and each of the military staff bowed their heads to write.
Calculate the strength, food and fodder of both the enemy and ourselves.
At the same time, various offensive and defensive speculations were made based on the Great Wall, mountains and terrain, etc...
And this is a strategic concept called temple calculation!
Since the Xia Dynasty, whenever wars occurred in various Xia countries, they would report them to the ancestral temple and discuss them in the temple hall.
The emperor divined good and bad luck in the temple and prayed for the protection of the gods, which was the initial form of temple fortune telling.
Later, the generals in charge of large armies would also gather together to conduct speculation and arithmetic before fighting.
Moreover, temple calculations have also evolved into military books, summarizing and applying various war strategies.
"Although there is no war with the Huns now and they have stopped attacking, I will wait until the time comes!"
Meng Tian smiled and said: "Let's do some calculations first. It will be satisfying and it will be easier to deal with when the Huns come."
The generals around him all smiled and nodded when they heard this.
At this time, the grain and grass continuously delivered by the imperial court are being hoarded, but the Great Qin Empire is preparing to fight a protracted war!
When it comes to competing for national strength, all the Xia dynasties and countries are far superior to the nomads and barbarians from all directions.
After all, the Xiongnu and other grassland barbarians followed a nomadic lifestyle, which was different from farming and could not accumulate much food.
And once natural disasters strike, drought, floods, and lack of water and grass under heavy snow, everything will be frozen, and cattle and sheep will die of illness and starvation...
Various tribes often become extinct and their vitality is severely damaged!
Meng Tian pointed at Yinshan Mountain and said: "Although Yinshan Mountain has also built the Great Wall, it is located on the grassland and is the northernmost part of the Qin Empire."
"Now that the Xiongnu went south, they bypassed the Yinshan defense line. After hearing about this, the Qin soldiers in the Yinshan area treated it with caution."
"And he sent a message saying that he was ready to send soldiers to support, but the general refused!"
Everyone around them nodded their heads in understanding.
Yinshan City hangs alone outside. It would be extremely dangerous if it was besieged by the Xiongnu or other grassland forces.
Therefore, sufficient military strength must be left behind.
"However, if the Xiongnu did not pass through Yinshan Mountain, it would have taken a lot of time to reach Jiuyuan County."
Meng Tian said: "So their front is extremely long, and the Yinshan army can always be stationed."
"When the time is right, attack the grassland from the north, cut off the Xiongnu's path here, and respond to the Great Wall Army such as Jiuyuan County..."
at the same time.
Xianyang City!
Ying Ziye took in the early morning sunshine and admired the vibrant flowers and trees in the corridor outside his room, gently sniffing the fragrance of the vegetation.
I just feel the pure and pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth blending into my body, making me feel refreshed.
"Husband!"
Bai Ying was wearing a suit of armor, with a high ponytail flying, and a few strands of hair swaying between his eyebrows. He came with a spear and shouted: "Look at the gun!"
Roar!
A long dragon with black armor and golden eyes hovered around Ying Ziye's robe, swallowing the purple energy from the east.
Seeing this, he blocked the spear with his tail, and the majestic force made Bai Ying unable to stop retreating.
"Bai Ying, you are naughty again!"
Ying Ziye smiled.
Bai Ying couldn't go into battle to kill the enemy, but he became obsessed with him and wanted to compete with him.
Bai Ying smiled faintly with a cold face, and continued to kill like a dragon with a spear in his hand.
A sharp shout.
"Take the move!"
The spear shook and fired dozens of times in an instant.
The gun glowed like a star, flashing with powerful spiritual light and erupting with a vicious aura.
No mercy!
Because Bai Ying knew that Ying Ziye could stop him.
So I tried my best, and only in this way can I know the gap between myself and the strong.
Bang bang bang!
Ying Ziye pointed his swords at the same time, resisting them one by one in an understatement, and kept moving closer to Bai Ying.
"Too slow, too slow!"
Ying Ziye's eyes were like lightning, and he clearly saw every move Bai Ying made, and gave guidance: "Don't stiffen your body, don't think about how to make moves, do it naturally."
"Let nature take its course so that you can move smoothly, explode with more power, and speed up."
"At the same time, every time I resist and repel the spear, I can use my strength to fight back and use the force of the counterattack!"
With Ying Ziye's cultivation and martial arts attainments, he was countless times better than Bai Ying.
In particular, the Heaven and Earth Sword inherited from Emperor Zhuanxu, the sword skills learned from the Xuanyuan Sword, and the sword to open the Tianmen, etc., gave him a deeper understanding of the mysteries of martial arts!
Even the land gods, Yuan Tiangang, Sweeping Monk and others are not as good as them.
"Good husband!"
Bai Ying responded softly, showing a sweet smile.
But he made changes according to Ying Ziye's instructions.
bass!
The gun shot through the sky.
A pure white spear light swept up.
A sudden sweep hit Ying Ziye!
However, Ying Ziye had already noticed it, but he didn't resist or avoid it.
Bai Ying was a little confused when he saw this, and was about to stop when he saw an evil smile on Ying Ziye's lips.
The figure slowly floated in the air.
this……
Bai Ying couldn't help being startled, and the spear fell into the air.
But she only felt a tightness in her waist, and a big hand held her slender waist tightly.
There was a man's hot breath coming from behind.
"Madam, what are you looking for?"
Ying Ziye laughed teasingly.
"you!"
Bai Ying blushed, but still asked: "Husband, when did you appear behind me, and how did that figure do it just now?"
"Ah!"
Ying Ziye laughed softly and said: "It's very simple, an illusion that works on the soul!"
"Illusion, the Yin Yang family kind!"
Bai Ying looked curiously.
"It's similar to the Yin-Yang family's mind-control techniques, but it's a little different!"
Ying Ziye said seriously: "Do you still remember that the ancestor Weiyang Jun gave me and Donghuang Taiyi, the sundial and the Yuan Shen Pearl of Mo Lu?"
"I tried some methods and conducted some experiments on animals and humans, and found a way to absorb the power of the soul!"
"This will strengthen my soul, reaching a level where I can control objects and even influence the minds of living beings with my soul..."
This experimental process is extremely dangerous!
The soul is unique to heaven and humans, and the transformation of the soul is far beyond the power of the soul.
That Yuan Shen is Mo Ru. It can be said that he has never died, but has just lost his body.
The ruthless ferocity, murderous thoughts, and even memories in the soul will affect the living soul or the divine soul.
If you are not careful, if you come into contact with it rashly, you will go crazy, or even have your body taken away from you!
However, the danger was greatly reduced after being sealed into beads by Weiyang Lord Ying Xi.
After many experiments, Ying Ziye found a way to eliminate the viciousness and murderous will in it, and used the method of alchemy to extract the pure power of the soul, and then devoured and strengthened the soul.
It sounds simple, but it took me countless attempts before I was able to complete it!
