Chapter 537: Savage (second more)

6 min read1,376 words

Until now, no one knew how many soldiers and horses Beiman had sent.

Overnight, the entire Longxi Mansion was messed up.

Xiangyi Mansion adjacent to Longxi Mansion, because of Shen Wansheng's timely

response, temporarily stopped the Northern Barbarian Cavalry going south, but

Donglin Mansion and Qifeng Mansion near Longxi Mansion had already been

affected.

"Big Brother, is there no way to force Beiman to fight a decisive battle?"

Shen Wansheng is really having a headache now.

He has sent people to deploy defenses in the place where Longxi Mansion must

enter Xiangyi Mansion, but if the Beiman entering Longxi Mansion cannot be

cleared out, he has to keep people on those official roads.

If the situation deteriorates further, Xiangyi Mansion will have to defend the

official pass that connects Donglin Mansion and Qifeng Mansion. But in fact,

Xiangyi Mansion didn't have so many troops at all.

The combat power of the recruits temporarily enlisted is almost zero. Once

they encounter the attack of the Northern Barbarian, they may be defeated in

one battle.

"Second, the purpose of Beiman going south this time should be to plunder."

"We are so cold here, but Beiman is afraid it will be even colder."

"Today's Beiman is to survive!"

Father Xu didn't want to drive Beiman out, but it was really difficult.

In the battle last year, they had prepared well, and with a thousand Ba Niu

crossbows, they were almost assaulted by the North Man at Huangfengkou Pass.

If it wasn't for good luck, and the Xiangyi mansion town army who went to

fight desperately, he and the two sons might have no idea where to bury them.

He used to escape, and in order to survive, he rushed all the way.

And on the way to escape, he saw the madness of too many people in order to

survive.

In the cold of spring, natural disasters kill people.

What is the situation in Beiman now, Father Xu can guess one or two as long as

he thinks about it. Today's Beiman, I am afraid that it has already become a

purgatory on earth.

In order to survive the North Barbarian, the madness that broke out is

absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.

"Second, now, I can only guard and see what the court decides!"

Father Xu sighed, "Also, Beiman broke through this time. If the court does not

deal with it properly, the world is likely to be in chaos. You have to prepare

early!"

"what……?!"

Shen Wansheng's eyes were dumbfounded when he heard what Old Man Xu said.

"Big brother, what do you mean?"

Mr. Xu sighed faintly and said, "Why do you think I should pretend to be

sick?"

"I was planning to go to the south of the Yangtze River on this trip, but in

the city of Jiangling, I accidentally discovered that Jieyundao was buying

food secretly. I guess Jieyundao might be rebelling!"

"Now, Beiman has broken through!"

"If the current cold spring becomes a disaster, it will inevitably affect the

spring seed. This internal and external trouble..."

Speaking of this, there is no need for Mr. Xu to speak any more. Shen Wansheng

himself is also a wise man, and he naturally understands what will happen to

this internal and external trouble.

A careless Datang, which has been founded for more than a century, may

collapse in one fell swoop.

"Big brother, I know!"

After hearing what Old Man Xu said, Shen Wansheng finally understood that the

situation was more serious than he thought. When he came, Shen Wansheng was

only worried about Beiman, but now, he felt that he should be worried about

this world.

When the cold spring came, Shen Wansheng just felt that it was cold.

He was born in the Shen clan of Changshan, but he was a descendant of a

family. He knew a little about the farming work in the fields, but he was not

proficient. He didn't think of spring planting because of the coldness of

spring, and naturally he couldn't think of the situation of crop failure.

Now that Mr. Xu wakes up, Shen Wansheng feels that the situation is serious

for the first time.

It's cold!

It's not just a matter of Xiangyi Mansion, Longxi Mansion is even colder. And

in his mother's home book, it also mentioned that it was very cold this

spring.

The Shen family of Changshan is located in the Changliu Mansion in the

hinterland of Datang.

Changliu Mansion is also suffering from a cold spring, so calculating, the

entire Datang, I am afraid that half of the territory is suffering from this

abnormal cold.

After leaving Lingshui Village, Shen Wansheng wrote a letter immediately,

asking the guards around him to send him back to the Shen family in Changshan.

Store food!

hiring!

Shen Wansheng, who is an official, has already deeply understood the profound

meaning of the phrase "the people take food as the sky".

People, if they don't have food to eat, they can do everything.

...

Dongming Mansion is located in the east of Datang, next to Bailuo, which is a

vassal state of Datang.

There are no four seasons in Dongming Mansion here, only two seasons a year,

winter and summer.

Xueji Pass is the main pass for Bailuo to enter Dongming Mansion.

However, since the establishment of the Great Tang and Bailuo surrendered to

the Tang, this Xue Jiguan has been described as a fiction. Although Datang has

arranged a garrison at Xueji Pass, the number is only a mere 500.

Of course, the five hundred town army is only the number on the book. In fact,

the number of town army guarding Xueji Pass is less than two hundred, and most

of them are old and weak.

This is not only unique to the North and the South.

Throughout the Tang Dynasty, there were empty salaries everywhere.

Lin Ao, as the guard of Xueji Pass, has long sincerely sincereed the Tu

emperor of Xueji Pass.

But at this moment, Lin Ao was kneeling on the ground like a dog, knocking his

head like garlic.

Around him, corpses were everywhere, blood stained the white snow.

"killed!"

A burly man dressed in animal skins like a savage waved his hand casually.

Following the man's wave of his hand, the savage next to him who was also

wearing animal skins suddenly waved the stick in his hand and slammed it

heavily on Lin Ao's head, blasting Lin Ao's head with one blow.

When the group of wild men wearing animal skins left, Xueji Pass had already

lit up raging fireworks.

On the white snowy ground, savages in animal skins escorted a large number of

Xuejiguan people to the north of the snowy forest.

In the Xueji Pass shrouded in flames, the old and the weak were crying.

...

Xuejiguan was ransacked by savages in the north, and the news of being burned

was only discovered two days later. When the beacon and the wolf smoke entered

Beijing, Emperor Yongping was already ready to conquer the northern savages.

When Emperor Yongping learned that the Northland Savage had attacked

Xuejiguan, he did not take it seriously. After all, the Northland Savage

appeared to him like a group of uncivilized beasts.

However, a group of savages dared to kill the people of Datang, and Emperor

Yongping certainly couldn't ignore it.

"Duke Dingguo, over there at Xueji Pass, I will bother you to take a trip!"

Emperor Yongping only thought about it a little, and handed over the task of

destroying the savages in the north to Dingguo Duke Xu Shuo.

It is true that Emperor Yongping felt that Xu Shuo was a idiot.

However, in his opinion, Xu Shuo should not be a problem to clean up an

uncivilized savage like the Northland Savage.

"The minister leads the decree!"

Xu Shuo was appointed by Emperor Yongping, and he took the job happily.

Packing up a group of savages, relying on Datang's armaments, is definitely a

weapon for killing pigs.

"I will give you a guard of soldiers and horses, and I will definitely kill

the savage tribe!"

Emperor Yongping glanced at Xu Shuo, "Feasible?"

"Please rest assured, the sage, the minister will cut the grass and roots of

the Northland Savage!"
