The two soldiers fought hard, and the team that came to support was obviously outmatched, but in the mist, there was a team of elusive archers, shooting from time to time.
The Yu family army only had 250 people, but they did not dare to approach too closely. At this moment, they saw a string of red lanterns hanging down from the originally dark arrow tower, and the fog became thicker. Under the guidance of this, the incoming reinforcements gradually
Retreat into the dock.
After stopping the army, Yu Chong narrowed his eyes and stared at the murderous Wubao. He thought to himself: "This is not an accident. There must be an early warning arrangement. Combined with the sudden change at noon today, the other party seems to know that we are coming.
, fully prepared!”
Looking around at the brothers who had been following him for many years, he sneered and said, "I'm afraid this is a trap, specifically to encourage us to take the bait!"
This did not spread far, enough for the surrounding soldiers to hear it, and their faces turned pale - they had experienced hundreds of battles on the grassland, and the essence of the war with the nomadic tribes was to defeat them one by one. Everyone knew that the front had turned into an iron plate at this time, and it was best to directly
Retreat and look for another opportunity.
However, having been controlled by the Yu Mansion for generations, the consciousness of obedience was deeply rooted in the bones, and the master's family had accumulated prestige. No one dared to speak out, and everyone only looked at Yu Chong with their eyes.
In this moment of public attention, Yu Chong was in a trance, and the threatening words of the spy just now floated in his ears.
Taking a deep breath, he made up his mind: "The Flame Disk must be repaired and we must ask the master for instructions. If we attack hard like this, I'm afraid we will lose more than half."
"But as long as the magician opens the gap, we can come down in one fell swoop!"
"I want to ask the magician to do something!"
Those who practice martial arts are indeed very powerful. As long as they can fight against each other, they can often defeat one against ten. However, the biggest weakness of pure martial arts is that the body cannot defend against being shot by arrows and crossbows.
Even though he is wearing armor, it is difficult to resist him at close range.
And once the magician cooperates, the magic array, storm, and five elements can exert more than ten times the power. This is the reason why it was invincible on the grassland before.
But doing this in the mainland will immediately alarm the counties. It is impossible for the bandits to involve magicians and Taoists. The nature of this is completely different. This is why until now, the Taoist priests accompanying them have not dared to take the initiative to cast spells. Inside Wubao
"Mr. Lu, we are friends, but is this how you treat each other with sincerity?" Cao Hushan was filled with anger at this time and rushed up to Lu Shangjing and roared.
Lu Shangjing chuckled and looked at the small battlefield below without saying a word.
After arriving at the Cao family, he persuaded the militiamen from the Cao family with his unshakable tongue, and was "offered a clever plan" to pretend to be officers and soldiers and flaunt the flag. This strategy seemed to reduce casualties, so Cao Hushan immediately took action.
Take command.
As a result, the enemy was not afraid at all and directly counterattacked. As soon as they received the troops, the front line could hardly hold back and retreated steadily. However, the siege of Wubao was no longer tight. After all, there were only more than 200 people.
Lu Shangjing shouted at the right time: "This group of thieves is powerful, retreat to Yejiawu Fort quickly, and wait for reinforcements from the county together!"
So...Ye's Wubao had twice as many friendly troops packed into it. After entering, he couldn't hide the truth. Cao Hushan almost turned against him at that time, and went to inspect the injured. He watched his son die from his injuries, and his heart ached to the point of bleeding.
, his lungs were about to explode. If this battle had not ended, or it was still on the battlefield, he would have fought Lu Shangjing to the death.
But under this questioning, Lu Shangjing's expression did not change, and she said coldly: "Master Cao, please tell me slowly, your idea is worth it!"
Cao Hushan gritted his teeth, wishing he could beat this man to death with a stick, and spat out a few words between his teeth: "Tell me, why does my Cao family not suffer losses?"
"There are more than thirty casualties, all of them are servants, but when the Ye Clan is in danger and they send troops to help, what will the Ye Clan think? What will happen to my young master?"
"Everything has been done. If you look reluctant, I'm afraid it will turn out to be 20 or 30 percent of the time." As he said this, Lu Shangjing smiled.
Cao Hu slapped him to death and stared at Lu Shangjing, saying: "The Ye clan just pays back, what about your young master?"
"You are short-sighted. How old is the young master? At the age of sixteen, he was selected as a scholar. If he wins the examination this time, I am afraid that he will be the first. Such a person has a bright future and his value is far higher than that of the Ye clan. I will give you Cao Cao
I have a great opportunity and great wealth, I can’t believe you don’t know about it!”
After hearing this, Cao Hushan suddenly felt that there was nothing more shameless in the world, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed like this.
"Report——" The Cao family sent troops to come up and asked Cao Hu to hold back his breath. He gave Lu Shangjing a fierce look, turned around and asked, "What's the matter again!"
"The enemy has retreated!" The messenger looked happy.
"Really retreated?" Cao Hushan climbed up the wall, and he saw figures shaking in the forest, and the enemy retreated like a tide.
This was just like a dream. I looked back and asked, "Are the county officers and soldiers coming?"
Lu Shangjing went up to the wall and looked at it, then frowned: "There are some. Judging from the flags, I'm afraid there aren't many. They are coming... Now I can see clearly, there are only two hundred."
He breathed out and wondered: "The county soldiers' combat effectiveness is average. Just now we had twice the number of fake flags, and the enemies dared to charge forward. Now we can scare them away with only half of them?"
"Perhaps it's night and the troops are exhausted?" Ye Zifan also came up, but at this time he bowed deeply to Lu and Cao: "It's a lucky escape. You two have made great contributions to the Ye family!"
Lu Shangjing turned sideways and said, "This is my boss's order before leaving. Shangjing doesn't dare to take this position exclusively."
Cao Hushan suddenly smiled and said: "You and I have been friends for a long time, and we are also brothers-in-law. This is nothing, we are obligated."
Seeing the rebels retreating, everyone cheered. A large pot was set up in the fort, gauze was boiling in boiling water, and strong liquor was prepared to clean the wounds.
Strangely enough, this method is very effective when used on the wounded.
"It is said that this is the invention of Mr. Ye Qing." Some tribesmen discussed.
"Such a person will surely win this time!" someone said.
"Ha, you are indeed my cousin...I heard that Bai Jing has a crush on Ye Qing, and he often invites her, and even comes over again and again, so it's almost time to spend the night...Uh, uncle, you are here too, hehehe...
…”
Cao Hushan's mood suddenly deteriorated again. He wanted to get angry but had no strength.
Outsiders can see what his daughter is thinking, but how can he, as a father, fail to see it? It's just that Bang Da is not a friend, Qi Da is not a lover. This Ye Qing may not be a good match, but how can he make his daughter wake up?
Also thinking that Lu Shangjing was confident that he would win the election. In this case, the Cao family would have to adjust its direction and become a vassal of the Ye family again. Wouldn't all the efforts of her mother, Mrs. Yao, be in vain?
After all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts, I finally sighed heavily and looked at the blurred battlefield in the night, feeling melancholy.
State Examination Hall
The lights are transparent, the atmosphere is depressing and tense, and the soldiers on duty take turns patrolling, with a solemn bearing.
There was only the sound of rustling rice paper and occasional whispers in the hall.
The examination papers are stacked in categories, one stack contains one hundred papers, and the other stack contains nine hundred and fifty papers.
Fan Shan watched as the last portion was distributed, then glanced at the six proctors and deputy invigilators below, calmed down, and bowed slightly: "The primary election is over, please ask the real person to open the ban."
The real invigilator walked towards the center of the hall, put his hand on the golden seal, glanced at everyone, and said nothing. The golden seal shook, and the brilliance suddenly shrank.
Almost at the same time, the sound of fountains resounded through the hall, and white gas emerged from each document, first from the deposed document, and in the blink of an eye, a literary spirit was formed!
The white air filled the air for a moment, and then only the red air filled the air. Those who can go to the state examination basically have red literary energy, and there are more than a dozen red and yellow literary energy inside.
The real invigilator was speechless when he saw it. He looked at the hundred volumes and saw that the literary energy of the hundred volumes was spurting out. It was not only red, but almost all red and yellow. After a while, about thirty more volumes of yellow energy appeared.
At the end, about ten streaks of green and yellow air filled the air.
And there is a roll that is full of green energy, almost light green, and only some variegated colors can be seen in subtle places!
Fan Shan took it and took a look, showed it to everyone, and said: "It turns out to be Ye Qing. This person is the best in literary quality. According to the rules, even if he has no other luck, he can be successful. It is true that he is destined to be successful."
All the officials couldn't help but admire, Dacai's rule is to select scholars based on literature, and determine order based on spirit!
Although luck is emphasized, this is not the case for literary leaders. This is a sure win, even for poor children, there is no luck at all.
Ye Qing didn't get first place in the previous few times, but after years of studying and understanding, and using Tong Jinshi's articles, he was not first place now, but it no longer makes sense.
All the officials lamented, but the real person didn't say much. He took out the list and used the seal. It was considered that the primary election was successfully concluded and there were no major mistakes.
Fan Shan was also tired, but he said: "Please ask the real person to open the seal to see the anger!"
The real invigilator frowned upon hearing this, but this time he removed all the gold seals. Suddenly, the hundred volumes of literary energy expanded rapidly, but this time it did not expand quickly.
Literary Qi can reach between green and yellow, but in fact luck has little influence on it.
A stream of luck soared into the sky, the brilliance was brilliant, and the literary energy supported each other. In the blink of an eye, the arrangement changed. The literary energy that was originally between green and yellow immediately turned into light blue, even close to pure blue.
Fan Shan looked away and saw that Ye Qing was also very talented, close to pure Qing, and obviously very lucky. He was secretly surprised: "I heard that this Ye Qing is just a son of a small clan in the county, how can he have such luck?
"
Looking up again, I saw that Yu Fan's green aura was also close to pure green. He did not shy away and competed with him. He thought to himself: "This Ziwen has great talent and luck, but it is a pity that he is a villain!"
This means that you have a prejudice in your heart.
There is another person who is also close to a pure youth, but he is a famous person in the state, Jia Zixing.
It can be said that there is not much difference between these three methods. Anyone can agree. This decision was made by Fan Shan. Fan Shan had already had prejudices. Then he waved his hand and said: "Ye Qing is the Jie Yuan, Jia Zixing is the second, and Yu Fan is the third."
!The other twenty dagger positions will be adjusted in order and arranged by you!"
As soon as these words were said, it was a foregone conclusion, and in half an hour, the list was drawn up.
He took out a blue scroll and slowly unfolded it. Fan Shan took up his pen and wrote on it one by one. In the blink of an eye, thirty names were written on it.
Finally, write down the list of Yingzhou candidates on August 27, the twelfth year of Da Cai Pingjing!
After finishing writing, Fan Shan looked solemn and took out a gold seal and stamped it. Just like last time, an official sent by the governor and a real person each took out a gold seal and stamped it.
After three seals and one complete, the thirty names on the scroll suddenly lit up and were all colored golden!
This means that thirty names have been recognized and achieved the position of being a great candidate.
