Chapter 1942 Sealing the Body
The wind whistles.
Dark clouds cover the sun.
In the southwest territory of Dashang, ten thousand cavalry galloped past, leaving the Mobei camp, not knowing where to go.
Half a day later, in front of each village, Mobei's cavalry arrived and rushed directly into the village. Except for children and old people who could no longer walk, all the others who could be captured were taken away, including some who were helpless.
A strong woman.
For three consecutive days, dozens of villages were looted by Mobei cavalry, and all people and food were looted.
The villages that were looted were all close to a relatively large city in the southwest, Shadu City.
In the city, 20,000 defenders stood ready. After noticing the movements of the Mobei cavalry, they immediately took the time to reinforce the defenses.
At the same time, in the military camp of the Mobei West Road army, large carts pulling siege equipment left and headed to the next city.
In the camp, Li Ziye looked at the siege equipment being pulled away by the cart, his expression darkened.
No wonder the Mobei Eight Divisions can march so fast. It turns out that their siege equipment can be fully assembled and disassembled, which is really amazing.
"How about it? I learned the Eight Parts of Mobei quickly enough, right?"
On the side, Lord Bai Di said calmly, "These are all techniques from your Central Plains. We took them and improved them to achieve today's results."
"Where did the craftsmen come from?"
Li Ziye said in a deep voice, "Without talents in this field, even if you learn from it, you won't have the ability to improve."
"You have to ask the Tantai Goddess."
Lord Bai Di answered truthfully, "In recent years, all the craftsmen you look down on in the Central Plains have been poached by her Tantai tribe. That woman is indeed powerful. She has already been thinking about the eight tribes going south. When we decided
After going south, those craftsmen and their research results have become our Mobei Eight Tribes’ biggest weapon against your Great Shang Dynasty.”
Having said this, Lord Bai Di looked at the people beside him and asked, "There is one thing that I don't understand. Why do you people in the Central Plains look down on those craftsmen with extraordinary skills?"
"Everything is inferior, but reading is superior."
Li Ziye's face darkened and he replied, "Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants are the eternal class distinctions in the Central Plains. Studying and becoming an official is the upper choice, farming is the lower choice, craftsmen are the lower choice, and merchants are only higher than slaves.
, it’s your next choice.”
"Don't understand."
Lord Bai Di sighed softly and responded, "You have so many resources, but you just put them there and waste them. It's really unbelievable."
"No more talking."
Li Ziye didn't want to say more on this topic. He glanced at the military camp and asked in confusion, "Where is the Tantai Goddess? Why haven't I seen her today?"
"In your own account."
Lord Bai Di responded, "The goddess Tantai is still somewhat injured and needs time to rest."
"I'll go see her."
Li Ziye frowned, turned around and walked towards the tent not far away.
Lord Bai Di followed behind and did not stop him.
Soon, the two came to the king's tent in Tantai Jingyue. The guard outside the tent saw Lord Bai Di coming in person, stepped forward, bowed, and said respectfully, "I have met the king."
Lord Bai Di nodded and asked, "Are your goddesses in the tent?"
"Yes." The guard responded truthfully.
"I"
Just as Lord Bai Di was about to say something, behind him, Li Ziye had already opened the royal tent and walked in.
When the guard saw this, his expression changed and he was about to take action immediately.
Lord Bai Di stretched out his hand, shook his head, and said, "It's okay. This is the doctor who is treating the goddess of heaven. He is a bit impatient."
When the guard heard Lord Bai Di's response, his expression softened a little.
Then, Lord Bai Di and the guards entered the tent one after another.
Inside the tent, Tantai Jingyue saw three people barging in one after another. She opened her eyes and said calmly, "Is something wrong?"
Li Ziye looked at the Tantai goddess who was meditating and adjusting her breath on the bed, and frowned again. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
"fine."
Li Ziye grinned and replied, "I was just worried about the goddess's injury, so I came here to take a look."
"My injuries are not serious."
Tantai Jingyue stood up, walked off the bed, and waved her hand to indicate to the guards that they could go out.
The guard understood his master's intention and turned around to leave the tent without hesitation.
"Why, is Mr. Li so worried about my injury?"
After the guards left, Tantai Jingyue looked at the person in front of her and asked with a half-smile.
"Of course."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "After all, we are now allies who live and die together."
"Don't worry, my injury will not affect the battle with Hades twenty days later." Tantai Jingyue responded.
Li Ziye nodded, didn't say anything more, just found a reason and left.
The next day.
The army set off and marched for a day, setting up camp again at sunset.
Li Ziye finally judged Mobei's purpose based on Mobei's marching direction.
Shadu City!
In the next three days, the army stopped and went, getting closer and closer to Shadu City.
As for Tantai Jingyue, even when he was marching, he rode in a carriage and rarely appeared in front of people.
Li Zi nightclub felt something was wrong, so he went to Tan Tai Jingyue several times.
However, every time, Tantai Jingyue was in his tent or carriage, and there was nothing unusual.
Late at night.
In the handsome tent, Li Zi tossed and turned all night, unable to fall asleep.
"What, can't sleep?"
On the bed not far away, Lord Bai Di opened his eyes and asked.
"My Majesty, do you have any conspiracy?"
Li Ziye sat up and said seriously, "We are already so familiar with each other. How about we talk about it? Anyway, I can't leave the military camp now and I can't reveal the secret."
"conspiracy?"
Lord Bai Di was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
Li Ziye observed the expression of the big boss in front of him, and for a moment, he didn't see anything unusual.
strangeness.
This guy doesn't seem to be lying. What's the problem?
at the same time.
Under the dark night, one figure after another passed by. In front of a city, five figures passed by. Without any pause, they jumped over the city wall one after another.
Half an hour later, blood flowed out silently from the mansions in the city, dyeing the night red.
At dawn, before dawn, when the army was setting off, a soldier came over and handed over a secret letter.
Lord Bai Di opened the secret letter and after reading it, a strange color flashed in his eyes.
sharp!
The army then set off, and the generals mounted their horses and accelerated their march.
"wrong."
On the horse, shortly after following the Mobei Railway Cavalry Army, Li Ziye sensitively noticed something unusual, looked at the sun in the sky, and his face darkened.
Wrong direction!
This direction is not to Shadu City, but to Binan City!
The Mobei army changed its marching direction.
Trouble.
"You big businessmen have become smarter recently."
On the side, Lord Bai Di saw that the young man beside him was aware of their purpose, and said calmly, "Defend the city with all your strength, and no longer leave the city to reinforce the besieged city, so as not to be caught on the way of reinforcements by our Mobei Iron Cavalry."
Get rid of the reinforcements, but since then, the people in the city you are attacking will be panicked and too nervous, because they know that no reinforcements will arrive."
