Chu Yao wanted to say that Chu Jie had basically won.
Because Yonggu Pass has been defended, and a strange combination of circumstances caused a huge blow to Shiwu, making Shiwu dare not use troops again for several years, which means there will be a few years of peace. If you can continue to squat, why should you follow Shen Conflict arose and start a new one?
Chu Jie is reluctant to leave even with his nostalgic personality.
If you can survive in peace, who wants to be homeless?
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
What the family wants is not that Chu Jie submits to her and recognizes her as the head of the county, but that Chu Jie submits to her wholeheartedly.
Otherwise, why would she risk going deep into Shiwutu?
Changed the topic: "My lord really took 30,000 heads?"
Shen Tang said: "Not at all. The army even marches covertly. It hides day and night. How can it dare to drag 30,000 heads through the city? I used ears instead of heads. I don't think Chu Jie dared to deny it. Let's do it. He sent people to slowly count them."
Chu Yao: "..."
That scene was wonderful to think about.
It's indeed wonderful, but what's wonderful is Chu Jie's expression.
He drank too much last night and got up an hour later than usual. The camp's cook brought him morning food, which included corn porridge, white steamed buns and a plate of cooked pig's ears. He finished them in a hurry.
On a cold day, he danced with guns and sticks while shirtless.
He stopped sweating all over.
At this time, some soldiers came to the martial arts training ground to look for him.
He wiped his sweat and said, "What's the matter?"
After hearing clearly the contents of the soldier's report, he paused.
He smiled and said, "Shen Jun is very serious about his promise. Let's take a look."
He didn't go alone, he also asked all the old people in the tent to come and have a look, and what he heard was false and what he saw was true!
Because Shen Tang is not a gold medal that everyone loves, and generals always only submit to the strong, Chu Jie can't force their heads to recognize Shen Tang. So, if he wants to convince these stubborn and courageous warriors? Then take out Come on!
Not long after, everyone had gathered.
Everyone smelled of alcohol.
Bai Su and Xu Quan clasped their fists to greet Chu Jie, waved their hands and ordered the soldiers to bring up the most special trophy of the trip.
It was not the heads that everyone was looking forward to, but pottery urns that were as tall as half a man. Although the pottery urns were big, they couldn't hold 30,000 heads, right? A straight-tempered rough man said in a urn voice: "Young general, Are all the heads that Lord Shen mentioned here?"
Bai Su said calmly: "Previously, General Chu asked the Lord for 30,000 Wu's heads to build a temple in Beijing, but it was difficult to preserve the heads. The number was huge, and the whereabouts of our troops were easily exposed on the march. So he followed the marching rules and used his right ear as a charge. Be the head."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
They all turned their attention to the pottery urns. Bai Su's cold voice clearly reached their eardrums: "I haven't counted the exact number yet, but it should be more than 30,000, and they are all ten black and young. In addition, there is a big gift. General Chu will be very happy." interested."
Chu Jie secretly took a breath of air.
After hearing what Bai Su said, he asked: "What kind of gift is it?"
She clapped her hands, and a soldier brought a three-foot-long wooden box. Xu Quan opened the box and found a box of blood-stained right ears, as well as several official seals to prove his identity.
The soldiers strode forward and raised the box above their heads.
Chu Jie asked: "This is..."
Xu Quan answered his question: "When I attacked the Shiwu King's capital, I was lucky enough to encounter a few big fish. Any one of them is worth hundreds or even thousands of Shiwu's green and strong heads. General Chu can count them Come on, maybe there are some you know."
Don’t even mention——
Chu Jie actually found an "acquaintance" from several official seals, and when he heard Xu Quan talk about "attacking Shiwu King's Capital", his eyelids jumped fiercely. He believed that Shen Tang didn't bother to cheat, which meant that the young governor really led people Played a game - go straight to Huanglong!
Even though Shiwu King was guarding the void, Shen Tang only had more than 2,000 troops on his side, and he was still alone and without support!
How dare you do this?
Chu Jie took a deep breath and was the first to react.
He stared at the dozen pottery jars.
The five fingers spread out and turned into a crude axe.
He strode forward.
Xu Quan also thoughtfully made way for him.
I saw Chu Jie taking the ax and hitting the pottery urn hard. With a crisp sound, the pottery urn instantly fell into pieces, and the contents inside exploded. With a crash, the calf of the nearest Chu Jie was buried. Most of it.
A strong and weird smell erupted.
Filled his nasal cavity.
Chu Jie smashed two more nearby pottery urns.
Each one is packed to the brim.
For preservation, it is also pickled with salt.
The piles looked like the cooked pig ears that he had praised in the morning. Even though he was used to seeing wind and waves, he was shocked by this scene. Other veterans came forward in a hive, carefully identified them, and after they were convinced, they shouted cheerfully. laugh.
One person even patted his thigh and burst into tears: "Okay! Okay! Okay! I am completely convinced by this Mr. Shen! It's true that once a word is said, it's hard to chase after it!" From now on, my life belongs to Mr. Shen, no matter what Go ahead and charge into battle without any complaints!"
Xu Quan asked: "Don't you count?"
A veteran with white beard and hair spat and said in disgust: "What are you counting? Thirty thousand is definitely the number! These things should be dragged out and fed to the dogs! What's the use of counting? I didn't expect Shen Jun to be old. Xiaoxiao has the consciousness and means to deal with his temper! Previously, I was worried that Mr. Shen would not be able to act and be ruthless. The old man has no problem here."
Everyone agreed, and Chu Jie said: "Just throw them away to feed the dogs. There are not so many wild dogs nearby for us to destroy. Take them all outside the city and burn them to pay homage to the dead brothers. I hope they can get some comfort in the spirit of heaven..."
Everyone clasped their fists and said, "Wei."
Both Bai Su and Xu Quan were a little surprised.
They thought they would encounter trouble, but they didn't expect things to go so smoothly. After learning about the blood feud between everyone and Shi Wu, they can understand their feelings to some extent. Take the veteran with white hair and beard as an example. In the early years, his daughter-in-law took the child back to her parents' home to visit the bride. , encountered a sneak attack by Shiwu soldiers and horses on the way, the mother and son were captured, their skins were ripped off alive and made into two-sided drums...
Several of them had close blood relatives who were murdered, and their bones were made into various jewelry and circulated in the Shiwu market...
Using human bones as jewelry is a trend in Shiwu.
From top to bottom in Yonggu Pass, everyone has a blood feud with Shiwu. If Shen Tang were kind and gentle to Shiwu, it would be a complete betrayal in their eyes!
You might as well go home and take pictures of your butt!
See if it’s the opposite of your brain!
During the memorial ceremony, I wonder if it was due to Chu Jie's psychological influence. In the past, Yonggu Pass was always surrounded by cold winds and gloomy winds, and the sunlight cast by it also brought a coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow. Today, it was exceptionally warm, and it was rare to have a big picture. sunny.
"I think the brothers who died in the battle would also be very satisfied..."
Under the leadership of Shen Tang, everyone burned incense and paid homage.
Chu Jie looked at the huge temporary firewood pile, the fireworks were blazing, and then looked at the young county guard's not-so-wide back, and he could vaguely understand why Chu Yao chose Shen Tang, and even tied himself up, leaving life and death in the hands of the other party. .
It wasn't just that Chu Wuhui was desperate, but he really saw a different hope in Shen Tang.
perhaps--
The situation on this continent really needs to change.

Today I picked up a piece of wool and bought a small gold medal with Mazu's head on it.
The workmanship of purple gold is so fine that I can't bear to melt it into gold...
