Chapter 1363 1363: The two armies kill the old master in front of the formation [asking for monthly votes]
Shen Tang felt that Luo San's words were hurting her, but she had no evidence: "Gong Xiqiu and I are naturally close friends."
If there is no tacit understanding between close friends, can they still be called close friends?
Unexpectedly, Luo San showed an expression like "Young people know nothing": "There are no confidants between men and women."
Shen Tang felt like he was being shot by a map cannon: "You can't be so absolute. Aren't he and I an exception? You can't use your narrow experience to measure our pure confidants."
At first she thought that Gong Xiqiu liked being single, but later she found out that he was not. He was single simply because the conditions were too harsh and weird. As long as Gong Xiqiu did not lower his standards, he could maintain a pure male-female relationship with anyone of the opposite sex.
Shen Tang also curiously asked Jimo Qiu.
What if his brother stays like this for the rest of his life?
Jimo Qiu's answer was very much in the style of the Gongxi clan: "The continuation of the clan is not in A Nian, so it is not important. A person's life is only a hundred years, and he can only harvest twice a year's wheat more than a hundred times. Life It’s short-lived, why go against your will?】
There is also no shortage of ancestors in the clan who have stayed together for life.
[Love is a shackle, let him wear it when he wants to.]
Shen Tang couldn't help but twitch his lips when he thought of Gongxi Qiu Ping's words and deeds: "Wearing shackles? Him? It's completely unimaginable."
The high priest's understanding of emotions is also quite interesting.
She joked: "If it is a yoke, then I will be hanging. Can't I be like Gong Xiqiu and be a bachelor for the rest of my life?"
The high priest said softly: [As long as one person is locked up. 】
Naturally, this person cannot be His Highness. God is sitting in the shrine, and it is a great honor for believers to cuddle up at her feet and accompany her.
Shen Tang subconsciously looked at the neck of the high priest.
For some reason, when Shen Tang heard the high priest say these words, Shen Tang's first reaction was to think of the black restraint on the neck of the Wudan Totem, and Jimo Qiu's neck was clean and white, like flawless warm jade, with a bit of radiant luster: 【It's a pity to wear it.】
【What's a pity?】
Shen Tang: [Whether it is Gong Xiqiu or the high priest, it is a pity to wear shackles. The word love should not mean bondage.]
If the shackles are burdensome, it would be better to be free.
Sometimes, Shen Tang feels like a saint.
You must know that the Jimoqiu brothers have always been proud to serve the gods. This kind of service includes but is not limited to bowing to the ministers. They can be virtuous foreign assistants or virtuous internal assistants. They will not even have any objections to Shen Tang's acceptance of the two gods... God , it should be fraternity.
And she is equal to a god in their understanding.
_(:з ∠)_
Faced with the blessing of having everyone at her fingertips, she didn't even feel the slightest bit of emotion. The aristocratic family secretly sent all kinds of beauties to show their affection, regardless of gender, but she was equally uninterested. This made Shen Tang suspect that something was missing from her factory settings. .
Such Gong Xiqiu and such her...
Let me ask, isn’t the friendship between the two pure enough?
Shen Tang obviously misunderstood what Luo San meant. He said leisurely: "It is a good thing that a woman is determined to be in all directions and does not stick to petty love. How can the love between a man and a woman be worth the power? However, a casual marriage between a man and a woman is just that. In that matter, as long as the female monarch is calm and composed, the other person will be stuck in the quagmire. Gong Xiqiu has some strength, why not use 'love' as a net to bind him?"
Shen Tang: "???"
"Having no trace of sincere love is the cheapest but strongest bondage in the world. The female queen may use this method to win over Gong Xi's enemy." There are many heroes in this world who obtain alliance benefits through marriage, Xia Houli thought. , so can she.
Shen Tang: "???"
Luo San saw that she still didn't understand, so he could only speak more clearly: "Sleep with him! Give him the illusion of having access to power through you, just like you see a donkey with red roots and rub it away obediently."
How can a superior person not have a guest?
It is normal to squeeze the maximum benefit with the minimum cost.
What a great shortcut, why can’t I think of it?
Shen Tang: "...so wild?"
"What's so wild? Do you know how the ancestor of King Qi's royal family fell into the eyes of the old ministers of the Kingdom of Wu? In the beginning, he was just a soldier guarding the city gate. His family was so poor that half of his buttocks were lost in the winter, and the whole family could not afford a pair of good pants. .With the same face, he entered several families one after another, and then he rose up step by step, and gained a foothold among the powerful families. Heroes do not care about their origins, the world only cares about the results! Gong Xiqiu is a bit unruly in character and has no brains, but he is also That’s why it’s so easy to control. You can tell at a glance that he is willing to accept death. If we can win him over, there will be fewer obstacles and more help for the queen to ascend the throne in the future!”
After all, he was an eighteenth-level concubine.
By winning him over to his side, the leader of Kang State would have less to rely on.
Or should I say——
"Did the Lord of Kang get there first?"
This possibility is not impossible.
"...Can't it be a serious relationship between king and minister?"
I really feel a sense of powerlessness as if the nunnery girl had been exposed to pornographic rumors.
Does Lao Deng still want her to wear a yellow robe? Take a step back, even if she is really interested, it is not a grudge against Gong Xi. This guy's cost performance is too low. If he wants to move, he will only move his elder brother. He is just adding to his head.
Luo San asked back: "How can the relationship between monarch and minister be upright?"
Shen Tang was almost speechless.
"...Ah, can this be said?"
Does Luo San imply that Gouzi literature is everywhere?
I completely believe it, the older generation in troubled times really have fun.
Confirming that the Queen of Xiahou had no interest in this shortcut, Luo San said with some surprise: "The Queen of Xiahou is really of noble character."
Gong Xiqiu has such a good personal relationship with her, so it's not impossible for an overlord to attack her in this situation. Ordinary people can't withstand such temptation, but she doesn't want to take the shortcut and insists on choosing the far away. How much willpower it takes. Strength and self-control?
What a great shortcut, but it’s a pity that the person involved refused to take it.
Shen Tang: "..."
Does this make you a noble person?
Not only Luo San thought this, but the two fat rabbits who squatted down today also came to a similar conclusion after reflection.
In order to repay Shen Tang, he volunteered to be a lobbyist.
As mentioned before, Shen Tang chose the location very cleverly. Most of the warlords outside Gyeonggi used this road to go to the capital of King Qin for rescue. The two fat rabbits she caught today are also well-known in Qiguo circles. character.
Not as good as above, but more than below.
With them as a guarantee, we don’t have to fight every game.
If they really wanted to fight, they couldn't beat Shen Tang.
Some of the leaders of the forces who were lobbied by them thought carefully and finally chose to stay put and watch the situation from a distance. Others did not believe in this evil. Not only did they not appreciate it, they pointed at the two of them and yelled: "Cowardly people! How can I fight with you?" Waiting for common cowardice, greed for life and fear of death? No matter what kind of monster Xia Houli is, what kind of swords and mountains of fire he lays down, I will risk my life to try it! For the sake of being a minister of the same court, if I don’t kill you, get out, don’t be dirty, I The land!"
The two fat rabbits sighed and said goodbye with fists in their hands.
I just hope that the other party won't be beaten too hard.
The results are predictable.
Speak harshly in the morning and become a prisoner in the afternoon.
After receiving the news that the two men's lobbying failed, they left the enemy's camp with their front foot, and Shen Tang picked up the guy with his back foot and hit him.
We don't talk about arranging troops, we just focus on who can kill whom.
In just two or three days, she squatted here and made a lot of money, killing other stragglers who had arrived late and did not dare to step forward. The scale of the army was expanded eight or nine times, and it would not be too big if it was larger. It's easy to control. There are many soldiers. If these people surrender openly, they will secretly link up with each other to give her a knife...
Shen Tang narrowed his eyes and chose to leave it alone.
"First go to King Qidu to join forces with the main force."
I was so busy hunting rabbits that I almost forgot about the real thing.
With the main force stationed as a deterrent, Shen Tang didn't have to worry about anything even if the prisoners had other thoughts. The group of people led the troops to Gyeonggi, and the ones with the most complicated emotions were those fat rabbits.
Where was their original destination?
The royal capital.
Where to go now?
It is also the royal capital.
It's just that the purpose of going to the royal capital is completely opposite.
Thinking of this, all the surrendered generals and captives were not in high spirits. They were all depressed, and the closer they got to the royal capital, the heavier their mood became. Not all of them were willing to change their families, and some chose to "bear it for a while." humiliation".
When they arrive at the royal capital, they will try to find a way to contact King Qin's main force, and if they cooperate internally and externally, they may be able to inflict heavy damage on the enemy.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is too cruel.
Shen Tang led his troops and marched straight in without encountering any obstacles along the way.
what does that mean?
This means that the main force guarding the capital may have fallen into the sand, and even if it is still there, it is likely to be restrained by the bandits' soldiers and horses, and they have no time to care about the safety of their own rear. After marching for half a day, the towering city wall appeared in front of them, with unfamiliar flags planted on the wall.
"Are you here to die again?" When Gong Xiqiu arrived, he saw a large and colorful army of soldiers and horses gathered under the city wall. They had all kinds of flags, and the flags on the soldiers were even more diverse, "Mama, you Why did you come now?"
He immediately jumped down from the city wall.
With all the surrendered generals on alert, they came straight to Shen Tang.
Shen Tang also jumped off the horse: "Are you done with this?"
"The fight was finished the day before yesterday. I don't know what happened. I said it with great fanfare, but only so many people came."
Shen Tang squinted at him: "Are you quite disappointed?"
"Too few, those people can't even make me happy..."
In the end, Gong Xiqiu only warmed up a little.
Shen Tang: "...Where are those people?"
"They've all been beaten and locked up."
He knows everything about internal affairs but knows nothing about it.
The longer the old capital of Qi State was trapped, the more chaotic the people's livelihood in the city became. Gong Xiqiu could not release the captured people to take care of them. After thinking about it, he chose to fight quickly. As long as the enemies were eliminated, the city gate He can reopen it and let the people return to their normal lives. His idea is good, but the implementation results are different from expectations. Shen Tang paused: "What's the difference?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "Many common people have escaped."
The streets and alleys look so depressed.
"...The battle has reached the capital city, how can the common people not run away?" This matter is also easy to solve. As long as the situation stabilizes, the common people who ran away will still come back. Now it is the middle of winter again, and ordinary people are hiding Taking refuge in the mountains won't last long, Shen Tang said, "Order people to post notices and announce them everywhere, telling them that the war is over and everyone who should go home should go home."
Gong Xiqiu said: "That's not necessary."
He has already sent people to capture all those who escaped.
Shen Tang: "...Zikuan is not angry?"
I can't imagine how many times Xia Houyu would have to wipe each other's butts.
Gong Xiqiu frowned slightly. Outsiders thought he was seriously reflecting and repenting, but in fact he was thinking: "Mama, who is Zikuan?"
Shen Tang: "..."
Xia Houyu was about to cry after hearing this.
The people Shen Tang brought over were all newcomers who had surrendered just a few days ago. They were still in the inspection period. She asked Luo San to keep an eye on him first. If there was any disobedience, he did not need to report and kill him directly. He would deal with Gong Xiqiu himself. The mess he made a while ago! For example, the leader of Qi Kingdom.
"You're not going to keep that old man alive, are you?"
Shen Tang lowered his voice, and Gong Xiqiu also followed suit.
"No, he's dead."
"How did you die? Did you kill him?"
"That's not true. Killing this man has dirty my hands." When Gong Xiqiu mentioned the Lord of Qi Kingdom, there was undisguised disgust on his face, which made Shen Tang look at him sideways - despite Gong Xi Qiu's clear love and hatred, But not everyone can make his emotions rise to the surface.
Most people who offended him were slapped in the face.
Those who can be slapped to death don't need to get angry again.
Why did the leader of Qi Kingdom offend him?
"Then how did he die?"
"Oh, he was shot through the head with an arrow from one of his own."
Shen Tang was surprised: "...die in the hands of one's own people???"
Gongxi snorted: "Yes."
The details are not very complicated to explain.
On that day, the soldiers and horses escorted by King Qin gathered to surround the royal capital. Gong Xiqiu was so anxious that he punished a few people without killing them, just to tease them. As a result, they couldn't afford it, so they secretly fired arrows.
"Xia Houyu sent people to sneak into their army in advance. With a cold arrow, in front of the two armies, he shot the leader of Qi State who was hanging on the big banner. The army was in chaos, and no one knew who shot the cold arrow. Whatever comes out will be directly blamed on them."
Xia Houyu's move was quite destructive.
Simply more venomous than venomous snakes!
From the perspective of the outside world, the soldiers and horses under the city wall were sent out in the name of King Qin's escort, and they were regarded as loyal troops! Seeing that the war was losing, they actually shot the rescue target personally! Once the target was dead, they had the opportunity to retreat. reasons.
Doesn’t this mean that a loyal teacher has become a clownish person?
Gong Xiqiu gloated: "The morale collapsed instantly."
The battlefield instantly became as quiet as a mourning hall.
Everyone stared blankly at the body swaying in the wind on the big banner. The other person's eyes were wide open, with a look of disbelief on his face. He obviously didn't expect that the person escorting King Laiqin would actually take his life. Little did he know that the city wall The people below were even more stunned.
They are complaining about why the leader of the country did not die for the country...
I also hope that this unworthy thing dies with dignity...
But, I really didn’t have any intention to kill!
【Whose arrow? Who fired the cold arrow? Stand up!】
Some people collapsed on the spot.
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips: [Does it need to be said that he didn’t fly out of your formation? It’s a villain’s behavior to hurt people with hidden arrows. Killing the old master in front of the two armies... You guys are really eye-opening to the world!]
The drama of this incident will go down in history.
At this time, Gong Xiqiu didn't know that this arrow was caused by his own people, so he was merciless in his harsh words.
(￣ェ￣;)
Ah, this month's full attendance defense battle is over...
See how many leave requests you can use.
PS: It is estimated that a new book will be published in March (Return to Me will definitely not be finished at the time. The two books should be serialized at the same time for a period of time. There are also many extra chapters for Rejecting Me. I hope the flag will not fall~)
PPS: Regarding Gong Xiqiu’s CP issue, I think the whole text is quite clear. The two brothers... cough, cough, cough, roughly speaking, Jimo Qiu is equal to the will of the high priest in ancient times, and Gong Xiqiu is equal to having his love affair taken away by Tang Mei and reincarnating in the world.
