Yuan Shi Tian

Chapter 343 Recommend a Person

----

Rank five divine weapon!

The moment Shi Jing stepped into the fifth rank, a majestic breath suddenly surged, and Xun Shaoyu's clothes rattled amidst the surging breath.

"The heart of heaven and humanity!"

There was a touch of cold resoluteness on his delicate face, and the Qi in his body made the surrounding walls roar. As a master in the realm of physical sanctification, a single Qi of his own could collapse the void.

Especially now, when Shi Jing was promoted to the fifth level, Xun Shaoyu's Taoist heart was immersed in the overflowing Taoist charm of heaven and earth.The spirit god who has reached the realm of perfection, absorbed the rhythm of heaven and earth in the stone realm, and finally took a step forward, a key step into the realm of heaven and man.

This half-step has caused countless cultivators to suffer from hardship until they die, and how many talented Taoist heroes have turned into withered bones and decayed.

The so-called way of heaven and man is subtle and profound, and it is the end of things!

Just like a seed taking root and sprouting, a burst of vitality is born in the body, until the last melon ripens and falls, and the final harvest is obtained.In Xun Shaoyu's eyes, the whole world seemed to be alive. All things were growing and dying, all of which were signs of vitality and evolution.

Xun Shaoyu chanted in a low voice and said: "There is no body of heaven and man, no spirit of heaven and man, no god of heaven and man, but it has the heart of heaven and man!"

At this time, Xun Shaoyu was cultivating the physical body of Qi, Blood, Essence, and did not make much progress, but his whole person felt completely renewed.

By observing the way of heaven and earth with the mind of heaven and man, what we get is also the principle of heaven and man, and the wonder of heaven and man. It has all kinds of inconceivable wonders. It is the way of nature and wonderful law for heaven and man.

Once he discovered the Taoist Heart of Heaven and Man, Xun Shaoyu's own cultivation may not have changed significantly, but his ant body already possessed the nature of a blue dragon!

clang--

Xun Shaoyu snapped out a finger, and with a burst of strength from the fingertip, it hit the iron door of the quiet room.The thousand jin black iron gate exploded loudly, and the moment the strong fingers gathered like needles, they hit the black iron gate.Almost the entire quiet room was shaken into countless iron powders when this finger fell, and the scattered iron filings whizzed and roared.

"My physical body has not changed due to my cultivation, but my own combat power...may have surpassed the scope of the martial saint's way!"

…………

Qingshakou can be said to be the gateway of Miura. Hundreds of thousands of troops gathered inside, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.

Da Sima Nangongcuo personally led 20 black iron cavalry to fight fiercely with the army stationed at Qingshakou, and the blood and yang shined on this Sanpu Xiongguan.

20 black iron cavalry formed a torrent of steel. One by one, the cavalry were wearing black armor, and the horses were beating with clanking hooves. The army was killing with overwhelming force, shaking and trembling in all directions.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere on the battlefield, swallowing up life like a millstone of flesh and blood, causing cries and wailings to come one after another.A famous soldier lay dead in a pool of blood.The armored war horses neighed sadly, and wisps of sword light appeared in the cold air. Countless combat boots stepped on the blood of their former robes, and they bravely charged forward towards the Qingshakou Pass.

Chang Yunguang was wearing armor and had a green steel sword on his waist. He stood on the Qingshakou and witnessed the tragic battle below.Especially looking at the cavalry that was like a torrent of steel, his eyes flickered slightly.

"Lord Sima, Lord Sima!"

An innate general shouted loudly, his armor and robes covered with blood.With the support of two armored soldiers on the left and right, he came to Chang Yunguang with difficulty.

The armor of this innate general was almost soaked in blood.No matter how much he cultivated his innate martial arts, he still could not avoid getting injured. A large stain of bright red blood was extremely conspicuous on his chest.

Looking at the general, Chang Yunguang suddenly became furious and said sternly: "How dare you, the general, let you station at the west gate. Without a general order from the army, you dare to leave your post without permission?"

Today's Chang Yunguang is not what it used to be. Ever since Xun Shaoyu became the regent, all his subordinates have been entrusted with important responsibilities.As a close confidant of Xun Shaoyu, Chang Yunguang directly succeeded Gong Yuzhao's Sima position, ranked as one of the six top ministers of the Lu State, and became a member of the core of power in the Lu State.

Now he has been entrusted with the important task of garrisoning Qingshakou, and has the power of life and death in the place. He can be said to be an important minister. Every move he makes is majestic, his eyes are bright like a thunder god opening his eyes, and his majestic power is breathtaking.

However, this innate general was not afraid, looked directly at Chang Yunguang, looked extremely sad, and said in a sad voice: "My lord, Ximen is in a hurry, Ximen is in a hurry!!"

"I have five thousand soldiers guarding the west gate. We fought bloody battles for five days and five nights without sleep. Now there are only eight hundred old soldiers left to garrison. They may be attacked at any time! General, I would like to ask you to think twice before allocating another thousand soldiers to garrison. Only I will The eight hundred old soldiers at Ximen are really unable to stop the Song army."

"A thousand soldiers?" Chang Yunguang raised his brows as he almost screamed, looking at the sad and decadent general, and said calmly.

Over the past few days, there have been many wounded generals who came to ask for soldiers, armor, and supplies, some of which were even more miserable than the generals in front of him. It was not like Chang Yunguang had never seen them before, but Chang Yunguang had never let go.

But Chang Yunguang himself was not completely heartless, he also had some compassion.It's just that the 20 Song troops outside Qingsha's mouth brought pressure to Chang Yunguang and even to Lu Guo.This made Chang Yunguang unable to ignore the overall situation of Lu State just for the so-called compassion.

The current situation has made Chang Yunguang do his best to support him. If it weren't for the extremely dangerous situation of Qingsha Pass, it would be a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It has the potential that one man can hold the gate and ten thousand men can't open it.No matter how hard the Song army attacked day and night, it would be difficult to truly break through in the short term.

As the saying goes, kindness does not lead to troops. The strategic direction of the Lu State is to "conquer the outside world before settling the country inside". Chang Yunguang's current purpose of stationing at Qingshakou is to restrain the 20 Song army and prevent the Song army from going south.

At this critical moment, in order to maintain the strategic deployment of the entire Lu State, the life and death of a mere [-] armored soldiers was already insignificant.

Chang Yunguang said in a deep voice: "The regent gave me a total of [-] soldiers and asked me to garrison at Qingshakou to prepare for the invasion of the Song army. There are [-] soldiers, and you and other three gates will be divided into one. There are [-] armored soldiers, and there are [-] armored soldiers left in reserve.”

"This reserve of [-] armored soldiers should not be used lightly unless there is a critical moment. Ximen currently has [-] old soldiers. It is not yet a critical moment, so there is no need for reserve armored soldiers."

Chang Yunguang showed no mercy, making this innate general look even more bleak.

This innate general cried out blood and cried: "Sir, you can't, you can't... The eight hundred old soldiers have exhausted their fuel and the lamps are dry. The Ximen soldiers are almost completely destroyed, and there are no more soldiers to support them. Ximen is hard to defend!!"

Chang Yunguang showed an angry look on his face and said: "It's difficult to defend? It's difficult to defend, but you have to defend it. There are three gates in the east, west and north, but the west gate is difficult for you? How can the other two gates be held up? Just tell me how to hold them down."

Qingshakou has three gates, namely the east, west and north gates. Each gate is guarded by [-] soldiers, a total of [-] troops.

20 Song troops attacked Qingshakou, and Qingshakou only had 20 soldiers, who could only barely defend their respective gates.Even with the addition of [-] reserve men, under the onslaught of the [-]-strong army, they were still as helpless as a chariot.

Therefore, how to make good use of [-] armored soldiers to defend the crumbling Qingxiakou is Chang Yunguang's biggest problem at the moment.

Chang Yunguang's expression was cold, and he said: "Abandoning duty without permission, I should have taken your head as a warning to the three armies. But now it's time to employ people, and I will give you one last chance to pull him back."

The two armored soldiers remained silent and immediately took a few steps forward, pulling the general to retreat.

This general struggled and cried out sadly: "Master Sima, Master Sima, brothers really can't bear it anymore, really can't bear it!!"

"Even if I can't bear it, I, Chang Yunguang, would rather die for my country than take a step back."

Chang Yunguang's face was cold, and he waved his armor heavily, looking at Song Jia surging under the pass, with his palm on the hilt of the saber at his waist, his eyes were full of coldness.

…………

Yeting, Lingyan Pavilion!

Xun Shaoyu was dressed in a brocade robe, sitting firmly on the throne, his skin like mutton-fat white jade, vaguely revealing the luster of jade.

Ever since he stepped into heaven with his Taoist heart, although his true cultivation was still the physical sanctification, his demeanor seemed to have completely changed, and there was a trace of aloofness in his demeanor.

Among the four levels of body, energy, body, and heart in the way of heaven and man, Xun Shaoyu only perfected the heart level. There is still a big gap between the perfection of the four levels of heaven and man and the realization of the final leap of the essence of life.

"Regent, the current chaos in the northwest has not yet been resolved. Young Master Ze and Young Master Yang have joined forces to make our army of one hundred thousand unable to move under the restraint. Zheng Guo and Song Guo took advantage of this gap to kill me with their large armies. , Tiannan two major passes."

As one of the important ministers of the Six Ministers, Sikou Meng Zifei remonstrated in a deep voice, saying: "The two major passes of Qingshakou and Tiannan are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they occupy an advantageous terrain, but the two countries have nearly 40 troops. Our Lu State How can we stop it?"

You must know that at this time, there were less than [-] soldiers in the two major passes. Most of Lu's soldiers were hoarded in the northwest to destroy the forces of Gongzize and Gongziyang.

Several important ministers at the rank of superior had serious expressions on their faces, and their minds could not help but ponder over how to break the situation.

With Xun Shaoyu's ascension to the throne, Gongzi Ze and Gongzi Yang seemed to be in doom, but the Zheng and Song states standing behind them became more and more aggressive, which once frustrated the Lü state's army.

Now most of Lu's troops are concentrated on the northwest battlefield, and Xun Shaoyu is very determined to eradicate Gongzi Ze and Gongzi Yang.However, under the current situation, there is no truly trustworthy commander among the 10,000+ army.

Although Xun Shaoyu did not lack the talents of one or two charge generals, he really lacked one handsome man who could have the final say.

"The reports from Qingshakou and Tiannan are one after another. The battle situation is urgent and fierce, and each one is better than the last."

Just by looking at the military intelligence reports, Xun Shaoyu knew how fierce and cruel this battle would be, with countless blood and tears mixed in it.

With less than 40 soldiers, they can withstand the attack of [-] troops, which is enough to show how terrible the coral on the battlefield is, and how shocking it will be.

"Regent, the military situation in Qingshakou and Tiannan is tight, so we might as well call in new soldiers to supplement. It's just that the northwest has restricted too much of the power of the Lu State. Otherwise, how could Zheng and Song dare to be so aggressive?" Situ Xun Taiyong said in a deep voice. .

"The chaos in the northwest must be settled as soon as possible, otherwise the national power of Lu State will be seriously damaged. Will there be a place for Lu State in Yuzhou in the future?"

After Xun Shaoyu powerfully united the hearts of the ministers, his ministers and officials had given up the idea of ​​seeking peace.However, the two countries of Zheng and Song took advantage of the civil strife in Lu and cut a lot of flesh from Lu.

Lu Guo does not have the strength to counterattack Zheng and Song's lands now, but for the 40 troops attacking Qingshakou and Tiannan.Lu Guo may not have no appetite to eat it together, so he let out a bad breath.

It's a pity that Yuzhou and Jizhou are far apart. Even if there are officials who are ordered by Emperor Qiu to ask for the title, it will take more than half a year to go back and forth.During this period, without the deterrence of the emperor's approval, the ambitions of Song and Zheng became unprecedented.

"Qingshakou and Tiannan must do their best to maintain the state and prevent the Zheng and Song armies from invading the Sanpu area. As for the chaos in the northwest, there must be a capable person who has the ability to calm down the chaos in the northwest, and then return to Sanpu and Zheng, Song’s hundreds of thousands of troops care about it.”

Hearing this, Xun Shaoyu said calmly: "From the perspective of Sikou, who has been in charge of the government many times, can there be such a capable person?"

Among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, there were only a handful of people who could take on important responsibilities. There were only two or three of them.It's just that among these two or three people, Xun Shaoyu has his own concerns. It can only be said that he can use his talents, but he can't use them to their full potential.

Meng Zifei said without hesitation: "Regent, among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, there is only one person who has this ability!"

"As long as this person comes out of the mountain, Gongzi Ze and Gongzi Yang will undoubtedly be defeated. The situation in the northwest is stable. With this person's prestige,

Seeing Meng Zifei's decisive words, Xun Shaoyu's eyes showed a strange look, and he said slowly: "Sikou values ​​this person so much. This is not like Sikou's temperament."

"I am just telling the truth. I am open-minded and have a clear conscience." Meng Zifei said solemnly, his eyes clear and bright.

Xun Shaoyu said: "What a frank and frank person. I believe this..."

Mencius, the military commander, was not his own person. He did not have any advanced magical skills, and his martial arts was just commonplace. Being able to rise to the position of military commander of a country depended on his uprightness.

This kind of integrity is extremely rare among ministers. Facing other courtiers, Xun Shaoyu may have calculated the pros and cons.However, Xun Shaoyu had to take Meng Zifei's words personally.

Therefore, the importance of the first impression at least determines the five-point credibility of a person's speech.

Meng Zifei lowered his head and said: "Old minister, thank you for the regent's praise. I feel ashamed to deserve it."

The eyes of several important ministers were focused on Meng Zifei at the same time. Meng Zifei said solemnly: "Regent, I am sure you will not forget that elder who was famous in four dynasties... Grand Master Wen Yuanming!"

As if this name carries a sense of intimidation, after Meng Zifei said this name, Xun Shaoyu's expression suddenly changed, and several important ministers also lowered their heads and looked at their feet in silence.
