"Mr. Wei Zhuang, what did you mean when you just said that the Southern Expeditionary Army encountered strange things?"
Fan Zeng stroked his gray beard and asked Wei Zhuang seriously.
He is also a military strategist, so he is naturally strict and serious about war. Wei Zhuang said something "strange" inexplicably. What could be strange in a war?
This is a transit point prepared in advance by the Xiang family, located in a forest. The Xiang family disciples have set up low tents and are burying pots for cooking.
Senior figures such as Xiang Liang and Wei Zhuang were sitting together to discuss matters.
"Long before the empire's 500,000-strong army marched south, I said that the empire would fail in this war. The reason for this judgment is Hidden Bat."
Wei Zhuang glanced away and motioned for Hidden Bat to come out and explain to everyone.
Hidden Bat is the guy who was said to look like a bat before. He has an ugly appearance and fierce eyes. He practices a martial art called "Bat Blood Technique". He needs to suck human blood from time to time, and there are tattoos on his back.
With a pair of bat wings, it is quite alien.
"Yes, leader."
Upon hearing Wei Zhuang's words, the Hidden Bat flew out of the forest, landed outside where everyone was sitting, and bowed his head respectfully to explain.
"I am not from the Central Plains, but from the land of Lingnan, which is the direction where the Imperial Southern Expedition is attacking. The reason why I came to the Central Plains was a terrible accident."
Hidden Bat recalled the past. He was such a bloodthirsty person, and his pupils were trembling, full of fear and fear.
"The area I live in, unlike the Central Plains Empire, has one emperor who directly rules the entire country. There are various tribes in Lingnan, and the supreme ruler among them is the leader of the tribal alliance recognized by most tribes. We will also call him
Being a king has a completely different meaning from that of a king in the Central Plains.
Just six years ago, for some unknown reason, the King of Nanyue seemed to have gone crazy. He was expanding outward crazily, aiming to annex the lands and populations of other tribes. Unlike before, he only needed the submission of other tribes.
The troops under his command were all a bunch of lunatics. They were not afraid of bloodshed and had no sense of pain. They devoted their lives to conquering one tribe after another for the King of South Vietnam.
I thought it was impossible for the Nanyue King to succeed in killing tribes like this, and no one would truly surrender to him.
But later, I watched with my own eyes the people in my tribe, their beloved relatives and friends, all fell in a pool of blood of massacre. But the remaining group, they raised their weapons fanatically, and they all became willing to be smashed to pieces for the King of South Vietnam.
warrior.
I thought they were possessed by some kind of witchcraft, but what kind of witchcraft can completely change a person's entire existence like this!
I tried my best to escape and fled north. The entire Lingnan area had completely become a concentration of monsters.
Can you imagine that a person whose head was decapitated by me fell to the ground, his teeth were still dripping with saliva, and he continued to bite me. The headless corpse could continue to wield weapons with his hands!
It’s so terrible~ It’s so terrible~”
The Hidden Bat covered his head with both hands and knelt down on the ground with his body crouched, his whole body trembling. His sweat not only soaked his clothes, but even formed water stains on the ground.
"this……"
"This is real?"
"How can it be?"
It was hard for everyone to believe that according to Hidden Bat's description, the land of Lingnan was what kind of devilish purgatory. If the King of Nanyue really had that outrageous ability to control people and had such a terrifying-sounding army, he would probably have unified the entire Lingnan.
Launched an attack on the Central Plains.
Fan Zeng frowned deeply, hesitant to believe these unbelievable things, "Mr. Wei Zhuang, is it because of this story that you judged that the Empire's Southern Expedition was destined to fail a few years ago?"
Wei Zhuang's face remained calm, and he asked quietly: "Why, you don't believe such a story."
"This... with all due respect, no normal person would believe this bizarre statement."
Fan Zeng pointed at the Hidden Bat who was still deep in fear and said, "If a person is extremely afraid, he is likely to have various fantasies about the object that scares him. I would rather believe that the Hidden Bat is like this."
"The son is silent and his strange power confuses the gods."
Gai Nie also spoke, "Xiaozhuang, if there is such a bizarre thing, then all it takes is the magic of controlling people. If the king of a country governs the place, works conscientiously, ensures agriculture, and develops the army, wouldn't everything be done?"
Empty talk.”
No one believes that there are such outrageous things in this world until they see it with their own eyes.
Kuai Che even mocked him directly: "Humph, Senior Brother Wei Zhuang, if you believe such a story, is it possible that your brain is on the same level as Hidden Bat's?"
Xiang Liang saw that almost everyone present did not believe it, so he clasped his fists at Wei Zhuang and said: "If what Hidden Bat said is true, then the King of Nanyue has at least unified the entire Lingnan. In this case, whoever is fighting against the Imperial Southern Expeditionary Army will
, what is it again?”
"This is why I ask you to ask for information. If the King of Nanyue's army launches an attack, the Empire's Southern Expeditionary Army will definitely be vulnerable."
Wei Zhuang's words made everyone in the Xiang family helpless for a while. They thought Wei Zhuang was very capable, but in the end, you judged that the empire's southern expedition would be a failure because of such outrageous news? Isn't this a joke about the anti-Qin plan?
.
"Hidden Bat, go down."
"Yes, yes, leader."
Wei Zhuang stood up, ignoring the people sitting there, looking at the sunset in the distance, "Humans, even now, humans have never explored the depths of Yunmeng Daze. The land of Lingnan, Shu in the west
The country, the extreme northern ice sheet, the boundless ocean... No human being is qualified to deny any possibility in this world. Ten years ago, the Qin State suffered a natural disaster from a beast that had not been seen in thousands of years. Everyone in the world said that it was the retribution of heaven. You
Do you believe it?"
Gai Nie looked at Wei Zhuang in surprise. With his humble status as a human being and his reverence for the nature of heaven and earth, could his junior brother really say this?
It seems that you have changed a lot over the years, Xiaozhuang.
Gai Nie let out a relaxed breath, and then thought about Wei Zhuang's words:
If what Hidden Bat describes is true, then the current Southern Expedition is just a conspiracy. And the empire and Ying Zheng know nothing about it.
The bizarre natural disaster that convulsed the entire Bashu ten years ago disappeared very unusually. Everyone said it was because of evil witchcraft. And what Hidden Bat described...
correct!
Although it was Wang Jian who put down the turmoil in Bashu at the beginning, many masters from Nong Yu and Lu Yan's line, as well as Zhang Han's secret guards, had all participated in it.
The news has been blocked intentionally. There is a more secret reason behind the Bashu natural disaster. If we can contact Nongyu, we may be able to know the truth about the Bashu natural disaster.
There is a truth to the natural disaster in Bashu, and there is definitely a truth to the strange behavior of the King of Nanyue. Perhaps humans may not understand it yet, but such truth must exist.
