Chapter 153

Benevolence is not in charge of the army. Any effective means is cruel!

At this time in the city, the people have already appreciated the cruelty.

Tuoba Hong felt incredible. He didn't understand why it happened.

Who did you offend?

No?

With whom?

No!

But also at this time, he recalled one thing.

I remember that not long ago, my son seemed to have asked for a military talisman and mobilized his troops to do something At that time, he didn't ask directly. Instead, he was asked afterwards. He said that the young master fell in love with a woman and seconded soldiers to fill the scene

Now I think there is no connection between the two things, right?

"No, no!"

Tuoba Hong comforted himself and immediately sent a messenger flag out of the city to inquire.

No matter who moved the hand, there must be a reason, right?

There's always a reason, right?

The emissary went out of the city and was not attacked by the arrow rain. He came all the way to the nearest place and cried out, "I am the emissary. Please answer me!"

Xue turned his head and looked at Qin Murong in the distance. Qin Murong waved his hand casually.

Xue Dazui immediately went to the emissary. He arched his hand and said with a smile, "what's the matter with the emissary?"

The emissary asked bitterly, "where does the comer belong? Why attack our city? What's the matter? Because where is the tour going? "

Xue turned his head and looked at Qin Murong again, but Qin Murong still waved his hand at will.

When he became famous, he said, "I'm manager Xue, the son of the chamber of Commerce of the Qin family! Today, Tuoba is trying to bully his mother and endanger his life. When he goes to Gaogang, the chamber of Commerce of the Qin family naturally wants to get back a statement. Today, he will wash your capital with blood and kill all your subjects, so that the world will know that those who offend the chamber of commerce of the Qin family will pay an incalculable price! "

The messengers were confused.

He didn't know about it at all, so he quickly said, "please ask manager Xue to stop the attack first. When I go back to have a clear understanding, it may be a misunderstanding!"

"Oh? Then go back and ask. "

With a wave of Xue's hand, all the crossbows stopped immediately.

The messenger quickly arched his hand and ran back to tell Tuoba Hong about it.

After hearing this, Tuoba Hong was very angry. He took out his sword and cut down the table. He walked back and forth in the hall for a few times. After a step, he called out a rebel.

The messenger quickly asked, "general Tuoba, how should this matter be handled?"

"How to deal with it?"

However, Tuoba Hong bit his teeth and said, "others have hit us in the face. What else can we do? Who to deal with? Who needs to be dealt with? Since they want to fight, then fight! Our walls are high, and they can't get in even if we measure them! "

The messenger was bitter, bent over to say yes, and then stepped down.

At the same time, a maid also quietly left the hall.

A quarter of an hour later, the Lord learned the news.

The old man almost lost his breath. When he recovered, he began to scold. He stood up and called out: "give me Tuo Ba Hong! I want to ask him if he knows what his son has done! "

The herald soon arrived at Tuoba Hong, but was kicked out of the door by Tuoba Hong.

"Old man! I thought that you didn't have a few days to live, so I asked you to sit in that position for a while. Do you really think that you were once the emperor of civil and military? "

A subordinate beside him grinned and asked carefully, "general, there are powerful enemies on the outside and imperial edicts on the inside. What should we do about this? After all Four thousand elite soldiers in the city only know your Majesty's talisman. Today our armour is seriously damaged. If the old man takes the opportunity to make trouble, I'm afraid it's...... "

"Well?"

Tuoba Hong was stunned for a moment, and then he broke into a cold sweat.

"How many soldiers did I send before?" he asked in a deep voice

The subordinates said: "you were angry at that time, and sent seven thousand at a time..."

"What?" Tuoba Hong was surprised and asked quickly, "how much are you back?"

"One..."

"A thousand?"

"None of them came back."

"Waste!"

Tuoba Hong roared.

Reach out to hit people, but look at each other's appearance, can only give up.

Only 11000 people were deployed in the city. Now 7000 people have gone, and there are only 4000 left, and they are all old and weak.

For more than ten years, he seldom fought, but it made him judge things wrong. As soon as he heard that someone was close to him, he even sent a large army out of the city directly regardless of the strength of the other party, which was a big taboo in the army!

Now, none of them come back?

Doesn't it destroy the Great Wall in an instant?!

At the same time, Xue Dazui had retreated to Qin Murong's side and said bitterly, "young master, why do you want me to tell you the truth? Shouldn't you cheat me? "Qin Murong laughed and said, "how many people did they come out just now?"

"There should be six or seven thousand."

"How much back?"

"If there is no one, ten thousand people are ready to send crossbows and arrows, and there are weak generals and miscellaneous soldiers on the opposite side. If they are asked to flee back, the moon sect will be a bit too unbearable."

Qin Murong nodded and asked, "this city, 20 Li in the southeast, is built on the mountain. It's not easy to have 200000 households in it. How many troops can be stationed in a city with less than 200000 households?"

Xue Dazui Leng for a while, carefully calculated, said: "poor luxury extremely martial state, there are 100000 people."

"What if there is no war in peacetime?"

"At most Twenty thousand. "

Qin Murong said with a smile: "yes, at most 20000 soldiers, but because he didn't know which idiot ordered him, he lost 6000 or 7000 people, that is to say, there were only more than 10000 people in the city at most."

Xue said: "if more than 10000 people only focus on guarding the city, if they don't have 30000 troops, they won't be able to fight down."

Qin Murong said with a smile: "there won't be so many people, and Even if there are more than 10000 people here, they are not for one person, Tuoba family After all, it's the Tuoba family. It's a small country. It's not named Tuoba! "

"What do you mean, young master?"

Qin Murong said: "if the leader of this small country doesn't have any military power in his hand, what kind of legal right to rule such a country? If you can take it directly without damaging the foundation, the Tuoba family has already taken it! The reason why the Tuoba family is still the Tuoba family is that the country leader must have some power to check and balance. The military power is the heaviest. Whether it is in the hands of the country leader himself or someone else, it certainly is not all in the hands of Tuoba. "

Speaking of this, Qin Murong suddenly sneered and said, "look? If people in a place are domineering for too long, their brains will rust, and then they will get into the water and rot directly. When the army came, he did not know himself and his enemy, and he did not talk about the cause, so he directly sent the main force to fight Oh, how rampant is it that makes such a stupid thing? To tell you the truth, I really want to see how the Tuoba family owner looks and whether his eyes are on the top of his head. "

Xue Dazui's eyes lit up in an instant.

Then he looked at Qin Murong blankly for a long time and said, "now I finally know why Mingyue sect suffered two losses under the childe's hands The right emissary didn't mean to blame at all. If I were you, I wouldn't want to be against you! "

Qin Murong waved his hand and said, "this flattery is not comfortable at all. I really don't know how to fight. If I really want to command the square array to kill the enemy or something, I really can't help it. It's just that people's hearts are always the same, whether you are civil or military, whether you are high or low. "

Xue said: "so now we are sure to win? So Are you going to attack the city? "

Qin Murong shook his head and said, "no, the reason why I want you to be honest is because I don't want you to go to the city. Even if these people are from Mingyue sect, they are here to help me after all. I don't want to see you sacrifice fearlessly."

"You mean Will we lose if we rush into town? "

"The possibility of losing is not great, but the loss is inevitable. Look at this city. It's weird! It's strange to build half a city on the hillside, or even hang half a city on the hillside. I'm afraid the streets and alleys behind the city wall that we can't see are also very strange. It's totally strange. There's a place beyond our habits. Going in is street fighting, and it's extremely unfavorable for us. Under the fighting, there must be heavy casualties. I don't think it's worth it. "

Xue Dazui was stunned for a moment, then he said with a smile: "if you let the right envoy hear this, I'm afraid it's going to make a laugh."

"That's not necessary," Qin Murong said with a shrug of his shoulders. "I'm not a shady guy. If others help me, I'm looking forward to others' death."

"This is also..."

Xue dabou touched his nose, and then suddenly said, "I hope Mingyue sect can kill more people."

"Why?"

"Because the moon religion is not what it used to be."

"Too big"

"yes It's too big. "

"That's why I tried my best to arrange several big tasks, and I had to make a mess of the world?"

"Yes, if it is backfired, or even nearly destroyed That's good. "

"It's like you have a grudge against Mingyue sect."

"Haha, only in that way can Mingyue religion be reborn and become the former Mingyue religion, which can change the existence of the general situation of the world as long as we do it!"

"So I don't quite understand. It's really hard to understand what Mingyue religion is going to do."

Qin Murong turned his lips, because he clearly knew that a person who wanted to get some kind of teaching in the world would never succeed.

Xue Dazui thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "young master, do you know anything about the world?"

Qin Murong said: "I know a killer in the world, and then you Mingyue sect. But from the beginning to the end, it seems that Mingyue sect is more like a power wandering in various countries Strange forces, it seems that they are different from the rivers and lakes. ""What do you think the world should be like?"

"Such as Ranger, great Xia, um Wulin experts, the ranking of the world, the leader of the Wulin alliance and so on, and all the messy things together, can be regarded as the rivers and lakes. "

"Yes That's right. "

Xue dabou rubbed his eyebrows and said, "these All of them

"Ah?"

Qin Murong was stunned and said, "why don't I know?"

"This..."

Xue said with a bitter smile: "it seems that you have never communicated with ordinary people? If you have nothing to do, just stay at home. Even if you go to Beiqi, it's a long journey, but you spend it on the carriage of the army, right? So I don't know. It's normal

"I've heard people talk about it, but I didn't say anything about Wulin experts."

"That's because..."

Xue Dazui sighed helplessly and said: "in recent years, the state court of Daliang has been unstable. Many people pay attention to the court. This is the topic after dinner, plus Young master, you have been in the limelight these years. When ordinary people chat, they are usually talking about your deeds. Otherwise, they are talking about some new things, so you can't hear anything about the world. "

Qin Murong took a look at the city in front of him, and then said with a smile, "anyway, I'm free. Tell me, what's the place in the world?"

Xue said bitterly: "in fact, you are far away from the Jianghu. After all, you are a member of the temple and have the power to change the world. So you may not have much contact with the Jianghu in your life. But it doesn't mean that if you don't care about them, they won't exist. For example, the moon religion can be regarded as the Jianghu, but in the eyes of the people in the Jianghu, It's just a demon sect. It's the existence that all the people in the Jianghu resist. "

"Boycott? Just a boycott? There is not a thing that the Wulin league can do to fight against the demon sect? "

Qin Murong asked curiously.

Xue dabou wiped his sweat and said, "there is resistance, but hostility Not really. Even the two sides have a lot of cooperation, and the rivers and lakes will also be involved in the country. For example, some countries directly use the rivers and lakes forces as their own army, such as this Dongli. Why can Mingyue cult come so many people at once? Do you think these 10000 people are the rivers and lakes forces or the army? "

"It's more like an army. After all, whether it's the method of crossbow or the arrangement of troops, it's not the kind of chaos in imagination."

Xue Dazui nodded and said, "yes, because many small countries are far away from the East. They all directly use Mingyue sect as their army."

"Ah?"

"In Daliang, northern Qin, Southern Jin and Western Zhou, these big countries are not friendly to the people in the rivers and lakes, but in other small countries, the forces in the rivers and lakes have complicated relations with the imperial court. Some small countries even have symbiotic relations, which is the root of the rise of Mingyue religion."

"The world It seems to be more complicated than I thought. In my opinion, there must be killers, meat business, prohibited goods and smuggling in the world Of course, there are also merchants. "

"That's not a mistake."

Xue said with a sigh of relief, "in this way, you can understand some things better."

"What's the matter?"

"Such as going into business."

"Oh?"

"Before the Qin family chamber of Commerce, business travelers from all over the country had their own way, and they also had people in the Jianghu. For example, they hired some sects to help escort them, or they just let those sects escort them. There are also some manors, such as wine makers and weapons makers, which are actually part of the world. "

"Oh, the escort agency and the villa?"

Qin Murong finally heard a little familiar with their own point, quickly said up.

"Escort agency?"

Xue Dazui is obviously unfamiliar with the word.

Qin Murong quickly said: "Oh, it's a name I used to use, which refers to those who specially help people transport goods Er, sect. "

"Oh, it's strange that you call them, but that's what you mean."

"What did you say to me just now? Is it good if I can understand? "

Xue took a deep breath and said, "the emergence of the Qin family's chamber of Commerce has affected the interests of many young masters' escort agencies. Those sects are not prosperous because of the existence of the chamber of Commerce. According to the rules of the river, they will send people to deal with young masters."

"I haven't seen anyone."

Qin Murong said suspiciously.

Xue said bitterly: "I haven't seen It doesn't mean they don't exist. "

Qin Murong was surprised and asked, "Mingyue religion Helped me out of the disaster? "

Xue Dazui nodded slightly and said, "it's not that I want you to appreciate me. Now I'm a man of you. I shouldn't have talked to Mingyue sect, but they do help you where you don't know. After all Childe is the only descendant of Zuo Shi and the only one who has the right of inheritance, so... ""What do they want me to be?"

"Not everyone."

Xue Dazui said: "now Mingyue cult is divided into three waves in the matter of Childe. One side thinks it can properly protect the childe, but does not want the childe to go back to Mingyue cult. The other side is eager for the childe to go back and bring new atmosphere to Mingyue cult. As for the last side..."

"What happened to them? Why do you hesitate? "

"They want you to die."

"This They belong to the same organization. There is a big difference between them... "

Xue Dazui knew that he was talking a little too much. He quickly changed the topic and told Qin Murong a lot about the world.

Some things are more magical, some things are more interesting, and some things seem so incredible.

Especially a legend, let Qin Murong some sniff.

It's said that there is a guy with ranking in the Jianghu who killed a country by himself! He also said that by killing everyone, a country has become a dead place, and so far no one dares to go, and its capital has become a ghost city.

This It's a bit too much!

People in the Wulin, killers, besides Feng Xiaoxiao, Qin Murong also met one, and let the black tiger lose his life there. It's really fierce, but it's just like this. Facing the military, they can't do anything.

What will destroy the country?

That's bullshit!

How powerful is a country? No one knows better than Qin Murong!

But it's interesting to hear this kind of thing as a story.

He looked up at the capital in front of him and thought about it carefully Do you challenge a country alone?

I don't know how it's defined.

A soldier came and reported: "young master, there has been no movement in the city for a long time. Do you want us to..."

"Wait a minute. I can't worry about this kind of thing. I give the country's leader a chance to see if he can grasp it. If he wins, I'll lose a crime of destroying the country. If he loses Let's take revenge for him. Maybe it's nothing wrong

"Good All right

The soldier's face was cold and sweaty. He didn't know what Qin Murong thought. It was a good thing to attack other countries?

Anyway, the young master said it was a good thing. That's a good thing. There's no need to argue about this kind of thing.

Stop the siege here and wait patiently. All the crossbowmen around hide their tracks as if they never existed.

Qin Murong is very comfortable, enjoying the scenery with tea and wine in the pavilion, but in fact he hides his anxiety.

Jiang yingyue is still on the mountain, and Qin Murong doesn't forbid the city to be empty. They are allowed to make carrier pigeons and beacon fires, but the people on the other side of the mountain just don't go back

The tactic of "encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao" didn't work, which made Qin Murong a little frustrated and even doubted himself.

But under, can only continue to use this not so ingenious method, can only wait for the opportunity to attack, draw money from the bottom!

So another day passed.

When the subordinates return, it's not that there's something going on inside the city, but that there's something unusual outside the city.
