Wu Xian paused for a moment with the wine cup in his hand.
"What are you curious about?"
Shen Tang took a sip of the goat's milk that was full of milky aroma. This goat's milk had no odor, and a little sugar and tea were added.
Before my sister, it seemed that no women could practice."
Why is Wu Xian not curious at all?
Haha, how is this possible?
He was naturally curious, but Shen Tang's status as the leader of a force came before gender. Wu Xian also wanted to promote cooperation between the two families to overcome the current predicament, so naturally he would not provoke Shen Tang without a look and pry into her secrets.
Can only remain silent.
"Mei Shen is willing to confide, and Brother Yu is all ears."
Wu Xian kicked the ball back lightly.
Shen Tang said: "To be honest with Brother Zhaode, I don't know it very well myself. I am able to practice inexplicably. Maybe it is because my qualifications are too high and I have exceeded the limit?"
Wu Xian: "..."
Shen Tang was amused by his expression, and Wu Xian also laughed twice.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Wu Xian suddenly let out a sigh of regret, and Shen Tang asked, "Brother Zhaode, is there something on your mind?"
Since the first alliance with Xiaocheng, Tianhai, Shangnan and Heyin (now Longwu) have become closer, and have cooperated in different forms several times. Putting aside interests and the like, he still likes Gu Ziyi quite a lot
Yes, at least this person is open-minded.
When Gu Ren was alive, Wu Xian was very wary, because the two people's routes overlapped somewhat, and the forces were relatively close, so he couldn't help but be wary. Now that people are dead and the lights are out, and there are common enemies eyeing him, Wu Xian can't help but feel a little sad.
When Shen Tang heard this, her smile faded a bit, and she said, "When Huang Xiguang is eradicated, he will be avenged."
What Wu Xian was waiting for was Shen Tang's words.
He said: "Brother Yu also has this intention. Although Huang Xiguang is powerful, you and I, brother and sister, will be able to defeat it if we join forces!"
Shen Tang responded with a smile.
We really want to join forces now, but we will discuss the matter of breaking up the gang in the future. Shen Tang's thoughts were ringing loudly in his mind, and the sound of banging made Gu Chi cover his ears. His strangeness caught the eyes of others, and they mistakenly thought that he was unwell and was being taken care of by Gu Chi.
Get over to Chihu.
Wu Xian asked again: "Does Sister Shen have a charter?"
If Shen Tang doesn't have a specific plan here, he can put it forward and take some initiative - Chaoliguan fell into Shen Tang's hands first, and all the fortresses and fortresses were occupied. Although Wu Xian, a "defender", is not considered a dependent
, but also lost a certain amount of initiative. This is what Wu Xian is more worried about.
He wants to seize the initiative and plan for the future.
If the two families can work together to defeat Huang Liezhanghe's troops, the final winner of the situation in the northwest continent will be chosen from among them. If it were Shen Tang before participating in the Dragon Slaying Bureau, Wu Xian would definitely eat the meat and she drink the soup. But
After the melee in the Dragon Slaying Bureau, Shen Tang made up for the lack of high-end combat power in one go and expanded his troops. Wu Xian really didn't have the confidence to do anything to her...
In his case, the best situation is for the two families to share the northwest continent, and then join hands to help each other, becoming allies, and resisting other bordering countries on the continent. It is slightly worse, with Shen Tang occupying six and he occupying four, and the two families help each other as allies and benefit from each other.
…
Of course, the premise of all this is that they want to survive.
Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the blueprint is, it will be in vain.
Shen Tang said: "My idea is to 'wait'!"
Wu Xian was slightly surprised: "Wait? What are you waiting for?"
"Wait until Huang Lie and the others finish dealing with the other forces."
"This can't be done! Isn't this raising a tiger to cause trouble? Once Huang Lie and others successfully annex other large and small forces and cannibalize the rest, it will be a huge force that even you and I will be unable to shake!"
You must know that this "other force" is not only the coalition forces of the Dragon Slaying Bureau, but also the soldiers and horses of Zheng Qiaogeng's country who have not been eliminated on the frontal battlefield. If you don't kill them while they are still young, but wait for them to gather, isn't this asking for death?
?
Shen Tang said: "There are advantages and disadvantages to this matter."
Fighting is a very expensive and expensive business.
Wu Xian calmed down: "I'd like to hear the details."
The disadvantages are naturally what Wu Xian said. Huang Lie's troops will enter a period of rapid expansion. It is optimistically estimated that he will eventually be able to gather 300,000 troops. After several rounds of expansion, Shen Tang and Wu Xian can only make up a mere
One hundred thousand.
There are three times as many enemies as them.
However, apart from the disadvantages, the rest are advantages.
Shen Tang pointed to the leftovers on the table: "My little sister can only eat three buckets of rice in one meal on weekdays. If it is paired with delicious food and her appetite is whetted, she may eat another bucket. But if I are forced to finish ten buckets, let alone
Can I eat it? Even if I can, my stomach is so bloated that it’s almost bursting. Not to mention facing the enemy, it’s hard to get up and take even two steps. Brother Zhaode, does Huang Lie have such a good appetite?"
Wu Xian: "..."
Everyone in the two tents: "..."
Does Shen Mei/Shen Jun have such a good appetite?
Shen Tang said to himself: "Now Huang Lie is like a man who puts ten buckets of food on the table. He can't digest it in a short time even if he eats it. Even if he can gather 300,000 soldiers and horses, he will have to piece together this stuff.
The 300,000 soldiers are on the battlefield. How can our 100,000 soldiers be obedient? The most important thing is that after Huang Xiguang eats these ten buckets of rice, there will be no food left in the warehouse. Let's wait for him to starve to death!"
She prefers to stay still.
In her eyes, Huang Lie is a greedy snake, swallowing up various forces. He looks bloated and looks threatening, but in fact he pushes himself to the edge of the cliff. One mistake, and everyone loses. By then, she will be the only one left on the chessboard.
and Wu Xian, two "snakes".
Wu Xian is full of bombs. The biggest bomb is that the factions of his subordinates are fiercely fighting. As the lord, Wu Xian not only fails to be fair and just, and distinguishes rewards and punishments, but also tries to find a balance between the two factions. He thinks he
Taking the overall situation into consideration actually made everyone feel dissatisfied.
Such behavior will be counterattacked sooner or later.
All she had to do was make a few random provocations at the critical moment, detonate one of them, and wait for Wu Xian to kill himself.
Shen Tang: "The more troops Huang Xiguang recruits, the greater the food gap he will face. We just need to wait patiently."
Wu Xian calmed down: "But waiting like this..."
Shen Tang hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, it's not just waiting."
She still has a lot of work to do.
Shen Tang looked at Wu Xian's face with a smile that sent chills down his spine: "To be honest, Brother Zhaode, my little sister is in short supply right now."
She smiled and rubbed her hands.
Wu Xian: "..."
The two families have too many soldiers and horses, and they can't all be accommodated in Chaoliguan. The extra manpower can be sent out to do many things.
As for what to do——
Wu Xian, who had experienced it before, had an ominous premonition.
Before he refused, Shen Tang said, "I'll provide the food!"
Land reclamation! Land reclamation! Land reclamation!
Pull them all over to open up wasteland!
Wu Xian agreed immediately: "Okay!"
Working every day consumes food, and even not working also consumes food. Lending soldiers and horses to Shen Tang is equivalent to her paying to help herself raise these soldiers, which greatly reduces the pressure on logistics and food supply. Why not?
I am afraid that I will miss out on good things if I am too slow to agree.
In this transaction, both parties felt that they had taken advantage.
------------------
Compared with ordinary people who are infirm, soldiers, especially those with martial spirit, are less likely to be infected by diseases.
With Wu Xian joining the team, the manpower that was previously stretched suddenly became abundant. So Shen Tang waved his hand and dispatched medical rescue teams of varying sizes to each county.
Although it is said to be a rescue force, there are actually not many people who know medical skills. The only ones who know medical skills are army doctors who are good at surgery. These doctors have been trained by Dr. Dong over the years. Since the epidemic was discovered in the Heyin area, Dr. Dong has studied many ancient medical books.
, summarized a set of disease prevention and control procedures. Although there is a lack of medicinal materials, if the infection route can be controlled, people and the source of infection can be isolated, and then the sick people can be carefully targeted and treated, the spread of the disease can be controlled...
This epidemic originated from flooding.
Water for common people must be boiled before it can be consumed.
The filth washed out by the flood and the corpses that were too late to be disposed of should be collected and buried, and different areas should be set up to separate the sick and non-sick people. The medicinal materials that could be collected in the city were collected, managed and distributed centrally...
Similar scenes were staged in counties within the Chaoli Pass.
Somewhere, outside the city.
Two pale-skinned corpses hung at the city gate.
Occasionally, hurried passers-by would glance at him with disdain and quickly lower their heads to go about their own business. He hung there for three days in a row. As the weather got hotter, he could still smell some corpse odor when he got closer. Someone asked: "City
Who is hanging?"
Pedestrian: "The shopkeeper of the largest drug store in the city."
The person who asked was horrified: "What did you commit?"
The passerby said: "He refused to buy medicinal materials."
"Kill him if he refuses? How pitiful he is to suffer such a misfortune!"
The passerby snorted disdainfully, "How pitiful? This man collected all the medicinal materials nearby and sold the medicine that usually cost fifty cents a pair for five hundred cents. Someone came to the door and offered to pay a hundred cents for the medicine, but he was beaten to death while pushing him.
Mr. Shen offered to buy the medicine at twice the price, but he refused. He said, "What poor man dares to think of my medicine? Mr. Shen has never heard of it." So he was hanged."
Hearing this, the man sighed: "You really deserve to die!"
He added: "But it's not allowed to kill people and seize medicine..."
Due to the impact of floods, there are fewer medicinal materials in the market - most of them have been looted by the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces under various excuses, and there are not many left. Things are rare and valuable, and epidemics break out, and the common people who are infected
The only option is to endure it hard.
If you can survive it, your life will be hard, if you cannot survive it, you will die.
The remaining medicine was also looted by one force. I could have paid a high price for the medicine, but now I can't get it no matter how much money I have.
This Mr. Shen is not a good bird either.
Unexpectedly, passers-by said: "Mr. Shen is a very good man."
The medicinal materials collected were used on the sick people, and anyone who was sick at home could be sent to the temporary medical center for treatment.
One spreads to ten, and ten spreads to a hundred.
Shen Tang is frantically harvesting his good reputation.
However, Shen Tang was not happy at the moment.
She was busy dealing with disaster relief and medical treatment these days, and with Wu Xian's interference, she simply forgot about her evil thoughts. She forgot, but the evil thoughts were not forgotten.
"What the hell - what are you doing?"
Shen Tang stayed up all night processing official documents, and fell asleep on the table without realizing it. When he woke up, he was facing the cold face of his evil thoughts, and the remaining sleepiness flew away.
"You have to respect martial ethics, I tell you -"
Shen Tang jumped up and down, widening the distance, fearing that evil intentions and lack of moral integrity would sneak up on her.
"If I wanted to sneak attack you, you would be dead just now."
After hearing this, Shen Tang calmed down, scratched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile: "You are quite a good person, with a lot of martial virtue."
Also, if evil thoughts really gave rise to murderous intentions, Shen Tang would have woken up long ago. How could he have slept until dawn?
Shen Tang asked her: "What are you doing out here this time?"
The evil thought said: "Let's settle this."
In fact, she didn't want to rush him, but if she didn't take the initiative, Shen Tang wouldn't even remember her existence...
As she spoke, she raised her hand and transformed into a Mother Sword.
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows and asked, "When will it start?"
Evil thoughts looked at the high-spirited young man himself, and finally there was a smile on his indifferent face: "Start now!"
After saying that, he rushed forward with his sword in hand.
Shen Tang walked around the pillar without saying a word.
A flash of sword light struck, and the pillar was destroyed on the spot.
The remaining sword energy left a streak of blood on Shen Tang's neck. Although the pain was not obvious, the opponent did have murderous intent.
Shen Tang shouted: "You are serious!"
The sword finger of evil thoughts passed across the blade of the sword, and a faint blush spread. She smiled half-heartedly: "I'm serious, please bear with me."
Chaoliguan welcomed the rising sun amidst Shen Tang's screams. When the soldiers raised their heads, they could see their lord chasing him.
"Hanzhang - Hanzhang - Hanzhang -"
"It's extremely urgent, Xun Hanzhang——"
One lord was running away in front, and the other lord was chasing after him with a sword. When he caught up, he raised his sword and poked the front lord in the butt. This is where Shen Tang's scream came from.
"What happened?"
Everyone was confused by this scene.
Both are lords, and their auras are exactly the same.
At the end, someone whispered: "Could it be that you are so bored that you have to create your own avatar to play with yourself?"
The soldiers at the bottom are weak in strength and do not know how to break through the bottleneck to kill evil thoughts. They only think that they are the incarnation of civility/martial spirit. And those who know this common sense do not expect that the evil thoughts in the rumors are actually awe-inspiring and pure, and there is no evil and violent evil spirit that evil thoughts should have.
?
Those who knew the news, such as Wei Shou, Ning Yan and Cui Xiao, were either sent out on business trips or were in other places within the pass.
The first one to "sniff" out the clues was Gong Xiqiu.
"Gong Xiqiu——"
Mama, who was being hunted, called his name from afar.
Gong Xiqiu's reaction hit people's hearts. He took a step back, crossed his arms and said, "Mama, you can only rely on yourself."
If you don’t even have the courage to face the killing in your heart, and you need to rely on the help of others to kill the evil thoughts you created, it will be difficult to make further progress in martial arts in the future. If you choose this path, you might as well learn from that coward Jiang Ao and hide in the east.
.
Shen Tang shouted: "Then tell me where Hanzhang is!"
One hundred thousand fires, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry -
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao comes.
Xun Zhen was confused when she was told that her lord was looking for him. Before she could think about anything, she saw Shen Tang running wildly from a distance.
"Hanzhang——"
"Use your scribe's skills quickly!"
"Wiseness arises out of haste!"
Before Xun Zhen could figure out what was going on, she heard a similar voice coming from behind her lord, but with a more mature voice: "Shen Youli, you have this idea? Is this all you have?"
Shen Tang was proud: "You are stupid and you blame me for being smart?"
Xun Zhen's body is faster than his brain.
【Come back after all the money has been spent!】
【Anxiety brings wisdom! 】
No wonder he reacted so quickly. This was the first time that the lord asked him to spend his family. How could he not agree?
