61. The sky is cold and chills through Chang'an, and the city is full of basalt armor
Tonight, the stars are dim...
Tonight, there are dark clouds.
Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high.
Tonight is destined to be an extremely dark night filled with a sea of blood.
"Tamako-chan, you think this is a good writing. Historians will definitely be surprised by my writing style."
"Boom", so of course he was punished by Loli's iron fist of justice.
"However, it would be great to end this war as soon as possible."
Speaking of which, this all-out war against Guanzhong was not originally part of Li Shushi's plan. In other words, for the senior officials of the Bingzhou Army, this battle should not have happened at this time. However, in the face of the temptation that came to their door,
With the mentality of not losing the opportunity again, the senior officials of Bingzhou Army still made up their mind to send troops to march westward.
It was precisely because of this war that caught everyone off guard that it caused great trouble to the Bingzhou Army's food and grass supply.
Don’t forget that the Central Plains to the east is still ravaged by drought. The original preparations for rain have been put on hold because of this sudden war. This also means that this year’s grain harvest in the Wanluo area controlled by Li Shushi is basically
Don't count on it.
A war involving the mobilization of more than 200,000 people, the victims in Wanluo area who needed relief, and the people of Xiliang who were displaced because of the war after the Guanzhong Campaign. These things alone are enough to burden Bingzhou with an extremely heavy burden.
A serious food burden, not to mention that Li Shushi also had to be wary of possible intrusions from the northern grasslands.
It was precisely because of his clear understanding of these problems that Li Shushi could not turn a blind eye to the Guanzhong brought to him. Because even though it was dilapidated and depopulated due to various wars, the wealth of the Guanzhong Plain was still coveted.
No, the offensive and defensive war in Chang'an has not ended yet. The General Staff has already begun to study the issue of how to restore Guanzhong after the war, because the degree of development of Guanzhong is the most important factor that determines how far the Bingzhou Army can go in the future.
Although I feel sorry for the people in Wanluo area, everything has its priorities and there are always choices to be made.
Although there may be considerable resistance and regret about such things in my heart.
"Then please, Tamago-chan. Please calm down this place as soon as possible. It can also make the people suffer less."
"Hmph~ I don't know how many people have been killed, why are you still showing such a compassionate expression? It's not handsome at all."
"Haha, it's because you have killed so many people that you have to do something good for everyone. Otherwise, you will feel like an executioner with blood on your hands. Even if you sleep, you will be haunted by countless evil spirits. After death, you will go to hell.
Bar."
"Where is hell? But no matter how bad the place is, I will go with you~"
"Yes, we will definitely stay together forever. We will not be separated until the end of the world. Then when the peaceful age comes, we will eat all the delicious food in the world and visit the beautiful scenery in the world. When the time comes, will I be a bad old man?
Ah, Tamago-chan, you can't dislike me at that point. Even if I'm called 'grandpa playing with his granddaughter,' you can't do it."
"Don't worry~ I will definitely be an unloving granddaughter by then, so you can rest assured."
"Don't worry about your size. If you say that, I won't be able to rest assured!"
"It's better than those weird words you said that make people feel like they are a farewell message."
Okay, although I can’t remember which movie’s flag those words came from, I still vaguely remember that the protagonist who said those words ended up dying under a boulder for the one he loved, leaving only his lover and the other person behind.
One protagonist goes on an adventure.
Huh? Li Shushi is in great danger! Super dangerous!
I wonder if I, who said this sentence, would also experience this kind of thing, and then my unwilling soul watched the girls walking around the world with another new protagonist who appeared from nowhere.
, then accumulate favorability, and finally do something that will definitely make most men furious, and a small number of men's blood boiling.
No, don't be such a leading actor.
I don’t want that kind of character who just married the heroine in the opening animation and is about to be buried before the opening animation ends. I feel so pitiful just thinking about it!
The most important thing is that the rich and beautiful princess-type heroine misses you throughout the whole drama but inexplicably falls in love with a sky pirate at the end. Just thinking about this is enough to make people cry!
It doesn't work anymore, I always feel that my life has become gloomy from now on, and I think that I have absolutely no hope for life.
"I don't know why Michio-sama suddenly became depressed, but this will disappoint everyone~"
While showing a troubled expression, one hand was raised high, and what was held in that raised hand was... a pan!
Well, no matter how bleak the future is, you must work hard to persevere, otherwise there will be no future at all!
All in all, after a lot of fun, I finally put the so-called "wrong flag" incident behind me.
Well, that kind of thing never happened.
Action, start.
"The dark clouds are really thick tonight, so this saves you a lot of trouble. It looks like you are very lucky, husband~"
"Yes, I heard that both the coalition forces and Dong Zhuo's army spent a lot of effort to achieve their goals. Especially the coalition forces worked really hard to bring down the heavy rain. It's really true that we can omit this step today.
Lucky. But..." Li Shushi hesitated for a moment before continuing:
"I remember that the spell 'Tantian' that can create a dark cloud environment requires a very skilled horse strategist to cast. Even if there are no powerful horse strategists, the 'Heavy Rain' spell cast by the coalition forces still relies on those secretive immortals.
You have to help to achieve success. Tamago-chan, you proposed this plan before, don’t you know any immortals?"
"Haha~ That kind of thing, who knows? My husband should also know the origin of my concubine. So it's not surprising to meet some weird people~ Okay, okay~ Business is important, business is important~ Could it be that my husband just now
Are you talking about all this to make us girls happy?"
Although Su Xiaololi is very cute, but excluding the cute look on Li Shushi's face, what she said before makes people feel very reasonable and cannot be refuted at all.
Well, he can recognize non-human beings like the Four Holy Beasts, and it would not be surprising if he could meet a few more immortals or something like that.
So even if Su Xiaololi said that she and some ancient beasts were actually friends, Li Shushi said that she would never be surprised!
Tsk tsk tsk~ Sure enough [beep beep~] young people are very happy.
"Who? Who's talking! Come out quickly, I promise I won't be beaten to death!"
Ahem, well, the reason why he can say such depressing words is that Li Shushi already knows who is teasing him.
After all, a certain Xuanwu Royal Sister had not teased him once or twice or even more than ten or twenty times. It was not strange for him to speak like a ghost behind his back or suddenly feel his body go cold and his brain tremble. Not to mention tonight
The action itself requires the participation of this royal sister. If the other party is not here, it will bother Li Shushi.
Maybe this is a way for the other party to notify him, although it is quite bad taste to scare someone behind his back.
Oh~ I’m really sorry for having such a bad taste. Ask a question!
"Answer." You must not resist at this time. This is the truth gained after going through bloody things.
Since we are going to attack the city and let the city wall no longer be an obstacle, then the question comes. Which one is stronger in learning to dig?
"Sure enough, I shouldn't have told Tamago-chan about this joke in the first place (covering her head)."
The constant laughter coming from Sister Yu showed that a certain mythical beast was in a pretty good mood right now.
I hope that this kind of mood will make her be merciful when she takes action, and not force herself to close the door and let the white tiger meow go, cough cough.
The purpose of releasing White Tiger Meow is just to restore everyone's condition. It's definitely not because of cute boys or anything!
At midnight, outside Chang'an City.
Everyone has made the necessary preparations, and the other three gates have also been notified that "there will be a big operation tonight." Along with the notice, there is also a note telling them not to panic when they see any strange sights.
matter.
Generals who had participated in the Battle of Changshe naturally knew what might happen, and generals who had participated in the Battle of Xuanmenguan between the coalition forces and Dong Zhuo also imagined what might happen after their colleagues explained it.
Everyone is filled with depression and restlessness, waiting for the judgment from heaven.
A stone's throw away from the west gate of Chang'an City, Su Xiaololi was ready and stood there quietly.
There was no need to wear costumes, build complicated altars, or perform some kind of cruel sacrifice. It seemed that just standing there was enough for her, standing there quietly, as if she was a judge preparing to start a trial.
Judge all creatures on this land.
That beautiful face now lacks the charm of the past, replaced by a majesty that Li Shushi has never seen before. She no longer has that invincible affinity, but can clearly feel a bit of cruelty from her body.
Su Xiaololi, who exuded such emotional fluctuations, made people feel so strange, so strange that Li Shushi, who thought he was quite familiar with her, subconsciously thought that the person standing there was a strange woman, not the lover he had spent time with.
.
Can one person achieve such a huge change overnight?
Yes, can.
But what was behind this answer, Li Shushi didn't dare to think about.
Li Shushi, who has experienced so many people and things, is no longer the otaku he used to be. He thinks he can distinguish the subtle difference between pure acting and true feelings supported by real stories.
But now, he hopes that he doesn't have such ability at all.
Conflict, entanglement.
I can only force myself to stop looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure, and focus on the golden cupping cannon not far behind that figure, which is waiting for my order, and focus on the boiling "ammunition" of the golden cupping cannon.
superior.
That is the ultimate weapon used to destroy the city gate after war.
My heart is very confused.
He didn't know how long it took, maybe it was just a moment, maybe it was centuries. Suddenly, a terrifying pressure fell from the sky that made him feel extremely palpitating.
As if feeling something, everyone looked at the dark sky at the same moment. Although this dark cloudy night made the sky nothing but black, it made people feel puzzled but so natural. In that pitch-black sky.
In the night sky, people seem to see a dark monster appearing on the sky.
It was a huge black turtle, with its head raised high and its mouth open with a ferocious expression. Although it did not make a sound, the hearts of everyone who saw this monster seemed to be moved.
It was as dull as a heavy hammer hitting it. It seemed that it would stop beating in the next moment. And in my mind, I seemed to really hear the thunderous roar, which was so heart-breaking.
There is also a huge azure snake wrapped around the body of the black turtle. The thickest part of the snake's body is similar to the black turtle's legs. The tail extends from the bottom of the black turtle's abdomen. It goes straight to the sky like a flagpole. And that sky
The triangular head of the giant blue snake kept shaking left and right on the black turtle's head.
Different from the ferocious expression of the black turtle's head, although the snake head is a triangle that represents the poison, the snake head gives people the feeling of a stunning beauty showing her charming and charming smile. Moreover, it is similar to the black turtle's head.
The opposite is true when the head is raised high. The snake's head is slightly lowered, as if it is overlooking the common people on this land, overlooking a group of ants in the eyes of this monster.
So even if a beauty smiles lightly, she must be a scorpion beauty.
The tail of the black turtle does not have the tail that ordinary turtles have. Instead, it is a mysterious substance that beats like a flame. It makes people feel that the mysterious substance has the ability to burn everything with fire, but it also makes people feel that it has the power to burn everything.
The horror that freezes everything.
Around the black turtle, purple-black dark clouds kept pouring out, dyeing the surrounding area into purple-black, a color similar to the poisonous smoke.
But if you move your sight away from the monster area, you will find that the night is still so deep and dark, the monster, the soul-stirring feeling, and the purple-black mist with an ominous atmosphere, everything
It seems like it has never appeared before, and there is no trace at all until you return your sight to the original area.
Majestic and mysterious, the monster is like an emperor in the sky, quietly looking down at its subjects. Just being swept by its emotionless eyes will make you unable to help but kneel down to her.
Pay homage to her.
But why does it seem that only Li Shushi heard the strange sound of "ohohohoho~" coming from the sky?
It's probably just an illusion.
Xuanwu.
Also known as Xuan Ming, a combination of tortoise and snake, he is the water god, lives in the north, and is a holy beast stationed in the underworld. Therefore, some people call him the God of the North. Xuanwu can even be used to communicate with the underworld and ask for divination, so it is different from other
The three holy beasts are called the "Zhenwu Emperor".
Some people even call Xuanwu's true form Emperor Zhenwu. The tortoise and snake are just his weapons - the turtle is a shield and the snake is a sword. He uses this to control the life, death and fortune of all people in the world. Therefore, there seems to be a "Nandou" among the people.
call.
It can be said that Xuanwu, as a sacred beast, is definitely an emperor-like existence among the people. As a Taoist profession cultivated by Xuanwu Shrine, it is active in the upper and lower parts of the Han Empire. It can even be said that this profession is the fourth civil servant.
The one with the best employment prospects among the vocational schools - not only is it a panacea, but it also seems to be outstanding in every aspect.
but.
But this is the only magical skill that represents the strongest ability of the holy beast. Xuanwu is an extremely deceptive existence - whether it is in this plane or in a game on another plane, whether it is a incomplete version or a complete version.
.
Because no matter what version of the magical skill Xuanwu it is, the power of summoning Xuanwu gives various effects to all troops on the battlefield.
Pay attention, it’s all, it’s all!
This also means that this spell is fundamentally different from the other three divine skills, that is, it does not distinguish between friend and foe at all!
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. There is always a shortage of using a small number of troops as cannon fodder to achieve certain tactical purposes on the battlefield. So although this is a bit cheating, it is still more or less acceptable. But...
There is an even bigger pit buried in this magical skill and Xuanwu—all kinds of influences.
I wonder how you friends understand the meaning of the four words "various influences"?
So it is conceivable that the result really makes people laugh, especially when the enemy generally receives supplements and buffs and oneself suffers various negative status blows, it makes people even more furious.
If you are playing games, you can also use s/l** to grind. There will always be a time when you are satisfied, but the time it takes is enough to make people feel overwhelmed.
In the real world, regardless of whether you wash your face or hands, apart from the unreliable choice of praying, you have no way to control the unknown influence.
There are so many people cheating, and over time, Xuanwu, which was originally the first of the four divine skills in terms of scope of influence and power, has become an existence that is more tasteless than chicken ribs. In the eyes of some people, it is even considered abandoned.
It doesn't seem to be a pity at all.
"So, respected Lord Xuanwu, this is your battle to clear your name~"
Looking at the awe-inspiring vision in the sky, although there was no response from a certain royal sister, as long as I saw the purple-black gas spreading faster, the existence of the suspected flame that made people extremely concerned also disappeared from Xuanwu.
The tail part detached and shot into the unknown night sky, Li Shushi couldn't help but have a happy smile on his face.
But he soon stopped laughing.
[I have been calling me a monster since just now. Are they so ugly in your mind? 】
It is conceivable that within someone's foreseeable future, it will definitely become extremely exciting.
May the Yellow Dragon girl bless you in the new year~Amen!
Pan Sen: Xuanwu is really a waste of mouse skills, although sometimes it is too powerful... (To be continued...)
