After Gu Le was petrified for a while, when he slowly woke up, he finally asked this question.
"Yes, this is the magic of the gods. I am sent by God to save the common people." As he spoke, Su Shi thought, and a golden dragon sword appeared in his hand.
No one could see where this thing was taken out from, not even the peerless master Bai Xing.
Caressing the blade with his hand, Su Shi slowly raised his head, looked at Gu Le and asked, "What? Do you want to fight against the gods?"
"Don't dare."
With a thud, Gu Le fell to his knees on the ground.
Gule has no culture, and most Xixia people do not read, but this does not prevent them from believing in ghosts and gods.
When Su Shi first took out this image and then transformed it into a sword, Gu Le was finally convinced and knelt on the ground. At this time, he was convinced by Su Shi and did not dare to resist at all.
Are you kidding me? To go against the gods is to light a lamp in the toilet - to seek death.
At this moment, not only Gu Le knelt down, but also Lou Yang and Bai Xing beside him knelt down together.
As people close to Su Shi, they had long suspected that the young master had magical skills. Otherwise, where did the food, weapons, war horses, gold and silver, etc. come from.
But Su Shi never said anything, and they didn't dare to ask. But now, Su Shi finally revealed it. At this moment, they were more sure of their guess. At this moment, there was no doubt or disrespect at all.
The people around him also knelt down, but Su Shi did not stop him. Instead, he thought about it and said: "I am a god, and this time I come down to earth to save all living beings, but I only
This god will not care about those who are destined to be reunited with each other, and those who do not fight against themselves. Gu Le, you and I are destined to be reunited, so I am willing to take action to rescue you. Even if you die, I still have the means to make you reunited.
Resurrection will allow you to be reincarnated into a wealthy family in your next life. Of course, the prerequisite is that you must believe in me and obey me. Can you do it?"
"Yes, Gu Le can do it. From now on, only gods...only General Zhongwu will follow." At this moment, Gu Le had no other thoughts at all. Su Shi didn't even care about reincarnation. At worst, he had lived enough.
Being able to be a wealthy person for the rest of your life is worth it no matter how you look at it.
"Very good, then you are willing to be my internal agent?"
"Yes, one hundred thousand yes." Gu Le continued to kneel there and said piously.
"Very good, your choice is correct. But remember, if you dare to have other thoughts, this video will be made public, and Li Yuanhao will not let you go at that time. Do you understand?
"
"The villain doesn't dare, I definitely don't dare to have second thoughts." Gu Le was completely frightened, afraid that Su Shi's magical tricks would be used on him.
"Okay, remember what you said now. And you just need to know that I am a god. Don't tell anyone. I have already planted a mark on you. If you talk nonsense, I will immediately
You know, you should know the consequences."
Su Shi threatened again.
"No, absolutely not." Gu Le shook his head like a rattle.
"Well, come here, take him down." Seeing that the fire was almost done, Su Shi shouted out, and the dragon and tiger brothers walked in and knelt on the ground.
The bones were taken out.
After there was no one else in the room, Su Shi spoke, "You two have also forgotten everything you saw today, do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand." Lou Yang and Bai Xing nodded quickly.
"There are some things that you don't need to know. I will tell you when I have to tell you. If I don't tell you, don't ask questions." At this time, Su Shi pretended to be inscrutable and said this.
He had to remind him like this, otherwise how could he explain it if asked?
He is not a god at all.
If so, he would have wiped out Liao, Xixia and Meng with a wave of his hand. Wouldn't it be better for the world to be united?
But at this time, no one seems to have thought about this issue. Besides, didn't Su Shi say that? He only saves those who are destined to be together, and he will not care about the life or death of those who are not in dispute.
Perhaps this should be a test from gods to mortals.
At this moment, Lou Yang and Bai Xing were both thinking in their own minds.
After Su Shi subdued Gule, he soon spread the news that a general named Gule had passed out in a deadly battle on the battlefield. He was found alive when he was cleaning the battlefield. Now he has been captured by the Song army.
It was sent to Bianliang City and handed over to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty for disposal.
There were spies from Xixia in the Song Dynasty. After the news came back, Xixia King Li Yuanhao issued an order and regarded Gu Le as a hero. He also said that he would do his best to save him and return to Xixia. He would send envoys to Bianliang to make every effort to facilitate this.
something.
Li Yuanhao naturally wanted to use this incident to tell his generals that in the war, fight with all your strength. As long as you don't surrender and you are captured, I can save you and give you a second life.
Life.
The fact that Gu Le was subdued by Su Shi was very secret and only a few people knew about it. On the surface, he was still a captured general and was locked in a carriage with a large wooden cage. Together with a thousand captured Xixia cavalry, he was led by five timid soldiers.
Qian was escorted by the imperial army and returned to Bianliang City.
The five thousand timid reserve guards were happy to accept this assignment, so that they would have an upright and fair reason to return to the capital. As for the ghosts that would come after they returned, the battlefield was too cruel and dangerous.
Where can Bianliang City be so peaceful?
The team marched in great force, attracting many people from the Song Dynasty to watch along the way, and also bumped into Wang Deyong, the privy envoy of the Song Dynasty who was rushing towards the north.
Wang De took advantage of the recommendation of the ministers in the court and came all the way from Bianliang City. In Pingding City, he saw a convoy of Gu Le and his entourage escorted by five thousand reserve imperial troops.
When I learned that Su Shi had defeated the Xixia cavalry, annihilated a total of 12,000 people, and captured a thousand cavalry, I felt so regretful that my intestines turned green.
If I had come earlier, would this great merit have something to do with me?
In this way, does he also have a great achievement? Can he leave his name in history?
At that time, who would dare to say that he, the Privy Councilor, did not understand war?
Who dares to underestimate themselves?
But now, just because I came a step too late, I have no chance of achieving great success.
The resentful Wang Deyong met with the preparatory imperial troops, and after learning about some general matters on the front line, he first made a request, that is, five thousand people to send Gule's captured soldiers was too wasteful, and he asked for three thousand people to be allocated to the prisoners.
self.
Wang De made a good calculation. He brought 5,000 cavalry and added 3,000 reserve imperial troops.
There were eight thousand people, which was considered a considerable force. After arriving in Xinzhou, they had more confidence to seize military power with Su Shi.
He wanted to requisition three thousand out of five thousand people. According to Wang Deyong's status as Privy Councilor, this was something that the Preparatory Imperial Army could not refuse.
Before the war started, these people would have been eager to become Wang Deyong's subordinates. After all, if their immediate boss was a privy envoy, it would be much easier to get promoted in the future.
The problem is, these 5,000 people are all timid 5,000 people.
After finally having a valid reason to return from the front line, how could they possibly go back?
Faced with Wang Deyong's order, the five thousand reserve imperial troops refused.
He refused very simply, saying that he was injured and refused to carry out military orders.
As for what kind of injury it is, don’t ask, if you ask, it’s just an internal injury.
If one person refuses a military order, he may be punished or even exiled. But if five thousand people refuse together, even Wang Deyong is helpless.
These are all preliminary imperial troops, and most of them are after meritorious service. Maybe their families have declined, but the combined energy of thousands of families will be so great.
Not to mention that Wang De used a privy envoy, that is, the current official Zhao Zhen. Once these people get together, they will dare to fight.
The frustrated Wang De left Pingding City in great embarrassment and headed straight for Xincheng again without stopping.
Afraid that Su Shi was making great contributions to the front line, he took five days to reach the destination in three days.
Within Xincheng, Su Shi had just completed the expansion of Xinzhou soldiers.
In a battle with the Xixia cavalry, the 10,000 Xinzhou Army killed more than 3,000 people. But when the order to expand
In an instant, the more than 7,000 Xinzhou soldiers turned into 30,000, becoming a powerful force in Su Shi's hands.
Yes, they have not been trained and their fighting ability is mediocre. But they dare to fight to the death, which is something that many soldiers do not possess.
And as long as they go through a few battles, they may become elites.
At that time, with tens of thousands more elites in hand, Su Shi had greater confidence to fight with his opponents.
Just when Su Shi breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy, Lou Yang suddenly came to report that Privy Councilor Wang Deliang had arrived outside Xincheng and was preparing to enter the city, and sent someone to notify Su Shi to go and greet him.
meet?
Welcome daddy.
Su Shi despised Wang Deyong from the bottom of his heart.
As a country's Privy Councilor and the highest-ranking figure in the army, one should dare to fight.
But look at Wang Deyong's attitude? He is not confident at all. He thinks that Song's soldiers are the weakest and he must be timid before fighting.
Some people say that a wolf leading a hundred sheep can beat a sheep leading a hundred wolves.
This proves the importance of leadership.
In the Song Dynasty, it was strange that the army could become stronger when there were privy envoys like Wang Deyong.
Now if such a person is used to suppress Su Shi, how can he agree?
He didn't go to Langu City to rescue Wang Xin before. Firstly, he was there to block the meeting between Xixia and Mengqi. Secondly, Su Shi didn't want to meet Wang Xin, because once they met, who would listen to whom at this time?
Wang Xin is very capable, but after leading troops for many years, his thinking must have aged. Some of his fighting styles and tactics must be different from what Su Shi thought.
If there is a dispute or difference of opinion, who takes the lead?
Saving Wang Xin is equivalent to finding one for yourself.
As a father, Su Shi would not do such a stupid thing, so he stayed in Xinzhou and used the war to expand his strength.
