Regarding Ling Yin Qu Wan's serious illness, Cui Ming explained: "Last year, the Chu army and the Jin army fought in Fangcheng. The battle was fierce. Jin army Zuo Fan Yang and Ling Yin fought in person. The two sides fought for three days. Ling Yin general Fan Martingale repulsed, and our Chu army saved Fangcheng. However, Ling Yin was also injured and has never recovered. This time he went to Zhengzhou, it was considered that he left because of illness. Now it seems that the injury must be serious. "
Wu Sheng asked: "Do you think he will die?"
Cui Ming shook his head: "How is that possible? Even if the injury is serious during Tangtang Lianxu, it is at most a matter of recovery in seclusion. Is there any elixir Chu needs that needs it? Not at all."
Wu Sheng said: "I think he will probably die, otherwise how could the Chu army retreat to Jifu and not even want to come to Zhouzhou?"
Cui Ming didn't believe it at all: "It's absolutely impossible, you are worrying too much. As for the mere Zhouzhou Lai, you can get it back someday."
Wu Sheng did not dare to guarantee that Qu Wan would die, so he changed the subject: "So before the Eastern Expedition, Qu Wan had already made up his mind to destroy the Four Kingdoms?"
Cui Mingdao: "I really don't know, but now it seems that it is so."
Wu Sheng asked: "Where is the Chu army in Huyi marching now?"
Cui Mingdao: "Dazhu, this is the fiefdom of your disciple Fan Ziyuan. One hundred and thirty miles south of Dazhu is the northern boundary of Yong Kingdom."
Wu Sheng said: "The Chu army in Huyi is marching very slowly."
Cui Ming expressed his merit: "I have detained some military guards for a few days. Of course they are slow. But after all, it is military affairs, and I can't go too far here. Since you are back, you still have to hurry up. Although Mangdang Mountain is in the south of Yongguo, this time There is no way to escape either. I read the military order and Mangdang Mountain is also on the list of conquests."
Wu Sheng nodded: "I know, I won't say thank you as a family..."
Cui Ming suddenly sighed again: "Originally, I wanted to help you get around one thing or two, and simply join Shen Zuo's disciples. Now that you've beaten Lu Mingze, how can I help you? The only option is to run away."
Wu Sheng asked with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that Shen Douke will know about you coming to Lu Mingze to see me? Can you afford it?"
Cui Ming said solemnly: "I personally entered the thief's lair and saved Zuo Tu's disciples with my sharp tongue. This is a great achievement. How can I be guilty?"
Then he asked cautiously: "You won't give me not a single customer, right? Or will you kill them all?"
Wu Sheng said: "Don't worry, the five diners and their families will all be left to you... help me hold off for a few more days."
Cui Ming shook his head in distress and sighed: "I really owe you in my previous life."
Wu Sheng couldn't help but get goosebumps.
That night, Cui Ming left Lu Mingze with the grateful Shen Douke disciples and his family, while Wu Sheng discussed with Yuan Sima and quickly counted the seizures.
Lu Mingze seized a lot of materials. Although they were not as valuable as the spiritual materials, magic weapons, elixirs and chariots buried in Lai Camp in Churen Prefecture, the quantity was really huge. Wu Sheng and Yuan Sima made an inventory. In the village alone, there were 200,000 jins of rice, 20,000 jins of dried meat, 150 pieces of silk, 12 cattle, and 30 horses. , 600 sheep, 80 yi gold, 130 kilograms of spiritual materials, more than 70 bottles of spiritual elixirs, more than 30 magical artifacts of various colors, and more than 70,000 ant-nosed coins. In addition, there are a large number of utensils used in daily life.
In the middle of the night, the close disciples who had set out to occupy several savage villages in Lumingze were called back. When they heard that they were going to leave immediately, they all looked embarrassed.
Seeing that they were unwilling to set off, Wu Sheng knew what they were thinking and warned them sincerely: "I know that it is difficult for you to part with your wealth. After seeing food, clothing and other things, none of you can walk!" But everyone, when the country is in trouble, is this the only small profit in our eyes? If there is no skin left, how can the hair be attached? Everyone! Do we have so many vehicles to load? With those people and those animals, how much can we walk with them? Slowly? The country is gone, what is the value of this thing in front of us? Think about your family, relatives and friends, think about our home, which one is more important?"
Master Dongsun resolutely raised his hands in support: "Since the doctor has said so, I have made up my mind to withdraw the people immediately. More than two hundred villagers will not want it, 30,000 kilograms of grain will be burned, and those cattle will be killed!"
Dong Da looked at Dong Sun taking office with some surprise, thought about it for a moment, and then responded strongly: "When the doctor said this, I, Dong Dalang, also figured it out. Isn't it just four hundred people and two thousand sheep? We don't want it! But next I object to Ding Ran’s opinion. The village has more than 50,000 kilograms of grain. What will they eat if it is burned?"
Lu Kuang sighed: "It is indeed a pity. There are more than 300 people in the villages that I have raided, and they are all good carpenters passed down from their ancestors. But the doctor is right, when the country is in trouble, how can we take care of these petty profits? I am willing to do it for Forward, travel day and night back to Shangyong to face the Chu people!"
One hand was raised high, and under the light of the lamp ball and torch, no matter whether it was the disciples of Wu Sheng, the disciples of Yuan Sima, or even the disciples of King Qingyu, and the disciples of the Sima of Kui and Kui, they all raised their hands resolutely. He raised his hand and vowed to immediately follow the doctors back to the country to fight the invading enemy.
Everyone in the village was excited and solemn, and a spontaneous heroism rose in the hall, waiting for the orders from the doctors.
All the doctors looked at Wu Sheng, and Yuan Sima said: "Doctor Shen, give the order!"
Wu Sheng pondered for a long time and said: "As the saying goes, soldiers are more valuable than speed. I plan to adopt a strategy of surprise attack with light troops. We don't need so many people and so many vehicles. We only need thirty vehicles. The rest will stay with Yuan Sima." Yizhuang is limited to two days, and we will leave after two days, so that my light troops can surprise others and cover up the situation!"
After the military order was given, the hall was visibly relieved, and many diners couldn't help but smile. They all praised Dr. Shen for his appropriate strategy, loving his country like his family, loving his soldiers like his son, and using his soldiers like a god.
At that time, Yuan Sima, together with the Sima of Kui and Lu, stayed at Lumingze for two days to provide cover for Wu Sheng, while Wu Sheng set off overnight with thirty chariots.
Although there are few military chariots on his side, they are full of elites. They include Jin Wuhuan, Dao Nanshe, Huang Feilong, Ah Nuo, Yong Zhi, Lu Kuang, Dao Baifeng, Yan Hua, Master Dongsun and so on. Lian Kui Ten of the most elite military chariots from the two countries were also transferred to his command - the Sima of the two countries gave orders that if they did not obey Wu Sheng's command, no matter whether they won or lost, they would all come to see him.
Thirty military chariots, without any soldiers, were equipped with fifty soldiers per chariot, totaling more than 1,500 people, rushing towards the southwest.
At dawn, the light troops had passed Yangzhou. Wu Sheng looked at the dark Yangzhou city wall in the car and remained silent for a long time.
Under Wu Sheng's desperate urging, the army moved forward at the fastest speed. Wu Sheng even ordered the soldiers to get off the car and walk, and let the soldiers take turns to ride in the car. They marched for 150 miles every day, and finally arrived five days later. To Dazhu.
Not only the soldiers, but also the charioteers felt extremely tired.
Wu Sheng found a place in the woods to set up camp on the spot, and all the soldiers in the army let out a feeble cheer, followed immediately by a wave of snoring.
