Chapter 783 Let them come to see me one by one (4000 words)
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
In an open space in Ceres City, Wang Meng was waving the giant sword in his hand.
Wang Meng's kendo emphasizes the utmost strength and yang, breaking through all means with one force. If anything goes wrong, just hit it with the sword in your hand!
And Wang Meng's physical fitness is indeed astonishing, with innate supernatural power.
The natural divine power combined with the giant sword in his hand created Wang Meng's supreme power.
Whenever Wang Meng swings a sword, you can see the vibration of the air, and the waves of the sword smash open one after another, which is extremely frightening!
Just when Wang Meng was waving the giant sword in his hand, a woman accidentally walked over.
Feeling the sword energy emanating from the woman's body, Wang Meng thrust the giant sword in his excited hand directly into the ground, turned around and looked at the woman not far away.
"I'm sorry, I. I just wanted to find a place to practice my sword. I didn't know Wang Meng that you were here. I disturbed you. I'm very sorry that I'll leave right away."
Su Mu, who accidentally came to this open space, quickly bent down to apologize, then turned to leave.
"Wait a minute."
Before Su Mu could run away, Wang Meng called Su Mu directly.
"Ah?" Su Mu turned around and looked at Wang Meng, "Wang Meng, what can I do for you?"
Looking at the delicate woman in front of him, Wang Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Quit from the Wan Jian Army."
"Eh?" Su Mu was stunned for a moment. Su Mu didn't expect that Wang Meng would say this to herself.
"I said, Su Mu, you'd better quit the Wan Jian Army and don't stay here anymore." Wang Meng repeated it again.
"Why."
Su Mu also looked directly into Wang Meng's eyes, but compared to the gentle tone before, Su Mu's tone now contained a bit of unwillingness.
"Because your swordsmanship is not talented enough, your strength is not strong enough, and your temper is too weak, Su Mu, you are not suitable for participating in the war.
Get out of here.
This is not a place you can stay.
Otherwise, you will die sooner or later.
Let's go.
I can see that even if you leave, the general will not blame you.
And this is your only chance to leave Wan Jianjun.
After missing this opportunity, there will be no regrets. Otherwise, if you want to leave again, you will be a deserter and will be dealt with according to military law."
Wang Meng said it directly without leaving any sympathy for her.
"What about you, Wang Meng? Do you want to leave?" Su Mu looked directly into Wang Meng's eyes.
"I will not leave. The battlefield is my destination. What my swordsmanship needs is the blood and heroism of the battlefield.
For me, the reason I stay in Wanjianjun is for my swordsmanship."
"Wang Meng, I will never leave."
Su Mu shook her head, clenched her little fists tightly, and looked at Wang Meng firmly:
"Wang Meng, I am indeed not as powerful as you, and my swordsmanship talent is indeed not as high as yours.
But I will work hard to make up for my shortcomings and I will keep improving!
I know I may die on the battlefield one day.
But I don’t regret it!
Wang Meng.
You have your own reasons to stay, and I also have my own reasons to stay.
I will not let down the general’s expectations!”
After saying that, Su Mu didn't want to say anything more to Wang Meng. She bowed her sword and turned around to leave.
Looking at Su Mu's back gradually running away.
For a long time, Wang Meng put away his sight and continued to wave the giant sword in his hand.
Wang Meng swung his sword mechanically, and in Wang Meng's mind, his thoughts couldn't help but wander. A scene from a year ago couldn't help but emerge.
"Are you okay?"
A year ago, after a man was injured in a sword fight, he was sitting under a high wall. A woman came over with a kettle and a medicine box.
"Get out." The man glanced at the girl and said in a fierce tone.
The girl trembled in fright, but still mustered up the courage to step forward: "But...but you are injured."
"It's just a minor injury." The man closed his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to him.
"No, if you are injured, you must treat it promptly. Today I am responsible for treating the wounds of our class. Let me help you deal with it." The girl said timidly.
"unnecessary!"
"Let me help you"
"I said it's not necessary, didn't you hear?"
"No, it won't work. It really needs to be dealt with."
"Why are you so stubborn, woman?"
"Because it is my duty to treat the wounds of our class today."
"boom!"
A rock in the open space not far away was accidentally chopped into pieces by the man's sword energy.
The man put away his sword, looked up at the stars in the sky, and sighed softly.
"But, you are so kind."
In the courtyard, Su Li was sitting in the courtyard watching the various affairs in the Ceres City.
Su Li had already sent out rescue missions to several nearby cities, indicating that Cereshen City could be defended and calling in a total of 200,000 troops.
Su Li felt that he had a high chance of success in calling.
Before other cities did not send troops, it was because Ceres City collapsed too quickly.
By the time their support arrived, Ceres City had already been conquered and was of no use at all.
Moreover, Ceres City is in a mess right now. Unless there is an order from the Imperial Capital, who would want to go into this muddy water?
They still need troops to protect their city.
But now, because it is Su Li who wants to mobilize the army, and Su Li also leads the Wan Jian Army.
Relying on Su Li's prestige and Wan Jianjun's battle.
Basically, the surrounding cities are willing to lend troops.
The main reason is that they don't want Ceres City to be destroyed like this.
Otherwise, they would have to face Xuan Xiaoyi's army directly, which would be too much pressure.
Not only did he want to borrow troops, Su Li also wanted some of the think tanks who had fled before to come back with him.
Half of those think tanks followed the withdrawal of troops.
Who knows if there are spies inside.
Su Li was really convinced. I don't know who thought it was, but let the spies enter the next city.
But this time, Su Li wants them all to come back.
As for finding the spies, it shouldn't be too simple.
Just read their script and you will know who is the traitor who suffered a thousand cuts!
After that, there is an inventory of various grains, elixirs, medicines, etc.
Anyway, if you want to defend Ceres City, you must establish several supply lines.
But now that the war is so intense, it is not a simple matter to re-establish a supply line and transfuse blood to Ceres City.
And just when Su Li was dealing with one thing after another, suddenly, a gust of sword wind blew through the yard.
"Why are you here? What's the matter?"
Su Li put down the document in his hand and raised his head.
In front of Su Li, a cold woman stood holding a long sword.
The woman was only around 23 or 24 years old, a round younger than Su Li.
The woman's name is Zhuang Mou. She is the first sword cultivator to pass Su Li's trial. She is also the most talented sword cultivator among the Ten Thousand Sword Army.
Among the younger generation of sword cultivators, Zhuang Mou is probably the one who is trending.
"General, why did you say those words?"
Zhuang looked at Su Li and blinked.
"Didn't I say that before? I just want to give you a choice." Su Li said.
"There will be many people leaving." Zhuang Mou shook his head, "By then, Wan Jianjun will no longer be called Wan Jianjun."
"Xiao Mou, you are wrong. Even if they don't leave, with the various battles that follow, the number of our Wan Jian Army will become smaller and smaller.
But Wan Jianjun will always be called Wan Jianjun.
Even if there is only the last person left, it will still be called the Ten Thousand Sword Army."
"." Zhuang Mou fell into silence slightly.
"Is this what you want to say?" Su Li asked doubtfully.
"I want to stay." Zhuang Mou looked directly into Su Li's eyes, looking very serious.
"Oh" Su Li nodded, mainly because he was startled by Zhuang Mou's serious look, "I understand."
After saying that, Su Li continued to lower his head, looking at the files on the desktop, looking at the map of Ceres City, and thinking about what other methods could be used to gradually remove the law without letting Ceres City be breached.
The formation was repaired to achieve the purpose of holding on, and even defeated some guys on the northwest front.
After thinking about it, Su Li gradually became more involved. An hour later, Su Li stood up and planned to take a walk.
Su Li raised his head and found that Zhuang Mou was still standing in front of him, looking at him motionlessly.
"Um, do you have anything else to do?"
Su Li didn't expect that Zhuang Mou was still there.
"Yes." Zhuang Mou nodded.
"Yeah." Su Li said seriously, "You say."
"General, what is your relationship with Senior Zhao?" Zhuang Mou asked.
"Senior Zhao?" Su Li was stunned for a moment, "Are you referring to Lingxue?"
"Yes." Zhuang Mou nodded.
"His brother is a good friend of mine, and Lingxue and I have known each other for a long time, so we can be considered friends," Su Li explained.
"Is it really just a friend relationship?" Zhuang Mou didn't believe it.
"It should be more than that."
Su Li said with a smile, a hint of helplessness and sadness flashed in his eyes.
"Lingxue likes me, I know it.
In my heart, it is impossible to say that I don't like Lingxue.
But, in this war-torn era, I can't tell Lingxue that I like her.
I don't even know which day I will die.
If I responded to Lingxue's emotions.
If I die then, Lingxue will be so sad.
So wait.
When this chaotic period is over and everything stabilizes, I will respond to her feelings."
Su Li was talking about responding to "her" feelings.
In fact, Zhuang Mou's heart was not clear at all. Su Li wanted to respond to "them"
Whether it was Lingxue's intention or Mo Lan Moyue's intention, he would not respond now.
I will wait a moment.
Let’s wait until after this big battle.
Otherwise, if they die, wouldn't they become widows?
"General, I understand." Zhuang Mou nodded, "I will prove that I will not be betrayed by Senior Zhao!"
After finishing his sentence, Zhuang Mou said no more, turned around and left directly, but Su Li was stunned on the spot.
no
What do you know?
Why do I feel like you are suddenly competing with Lingxue?
I don’t understand what young people think nowadays.
Early the next morning, Su Li came to the city wall and asked about their final decision.
Those who are willing to stay can stay, and those who want to leave Wan Jianjun can just leave without saying anything.
Su Li and the others chose the last moment.
After an hour, if no one present still leaves, then by default Wan Jianjun will be left behind.
At first, no one left.
But after serving a stick of incense, a man stood up, bowed to Su Li who was standing on the high city wall, then took off his sword, kowtowed deeply to Su Li, and turned around.
leave.
That is, after this person came out, people came out one after another, took off their swords, kowtowed deeply to Su Li, and turned around to leave.
As time goes by, one person after another leaves.
When only the last stick of incense was left in an hour, six hundred sword cultivators had already left among the tens of thousands of swordsmen.
Su Li was still waiting.
But as the time drew closer, no one came out anymore.
"No one else?"
Looking at the 9,400 sword cultivators standing here, Su Li asked.
"This is your last chance. If you don't leave this time, you won't be able to leave in the future, and you will be treated as deserters."
Su Li's words spread with the spiritual power, but still no one came out.
As the time drew closer and closer, their eyes became more determined.
This is a look that comes after thinking hard and firming up one's heart.
And only with this look in his eyes can he survive on the battlefield that follows!
"Dong Dong. Dong."
An hour passed, and a bell sounded, which meant that an hour had arrived.
No one left Wan Jianjun.
This means that all these people stayed here willingly.
Looking at the people under the city, Su Li's eyes swayed. In his heart, Su Li hoped that more of them could leave, but in the end, there were still 9,600 of them.
"Try to survive!" Su Li sighed heavily, not knowing what to say.
Being able to survive is Su Li's greatest wish for them.
The next day, Xiong Da led two thousand monks who were at least in the sea-viewing realm to Ceres City.
"Su Li! I didn't expect it! Your kid is actually here."
Seeing Su Li, Xiong Da walked up directly and gave Su Li a bear hug.
"Xiong Da, why are you here?" Su Li was also very surprised to see you, Xiong Da.
"Hahaha, I am guarding the three cities of Pingyang. I was already prepared to face Xuan Xiao directly.
I was so nervous that I felt like I was going to die.
I didn't expect that.
As long as you are here, I will feel relieved.
I first brought you two thousand monks, and then I also brought you all the military advisors from Ceres City."
As he spoke, Xiong Da lowered his voice.
"Old Su, let me tell you, there are traitors in there."
