Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 946 Sun Festival Ceremony
  The sun tilts southward and it is noon.

Meng Tian rode his own blood-red horse and horse, holding the reins with one hand and holding the sword at his waist with the other hand. He raised his head and looked at Shushan Mountain not far away.

At this time, Meng Tian's deputy rode over, bowed his hands and said, "General, the road has been cleared."

The people in Shushan have laid a large number of simple traps nearby, and the army has been clearing these traps for some time.

Shushan people have lived in the mountains and forests for generations. Hunting is the most important source of products, and they are naturally good at setting traps.

However, this depends on who you compare with. They are naturally much stronger than the ordinary Orions, but compared to the two major institutions of the Mo family, which are public losers, they are not worth mentioning.

The mechanism skills of these two companies can be experienced by the soldiers of the empire from time to time. The little tricks to deal with Shushan are no longer a problem, they just waste some time.

Meng Tian nodded when he heard this and asked, "Have you given all my orders?"

The lieutenant general nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, general, I have already given your orders."

"Very good!" Meng Tian smiled with satisfaction and gave his own assurance at the same time, "This mission was personally ordered by His Majesty the Emperor. It is the top priority. As long as you obey the order and return to the capital after the success, you will be successful." No credit will be lost.”

"Thank you, general, thank you, general!" the deputy general thanked him repeatedly.

"Okay." Meng Tian waved his big hand holding the reins and ordered, "Regulate the soldiers and prepare to attack the mountain!"

"Follow the order!" the deputy general responded and retreated.

Meng Tian was still stationary, looking at the Shushan Mountains with half-open eyes.

So, what exactly did he order before?

In fact, it was nothing. They just asked the soldiers to only hurt people and not kill people, and they were not allowed to attack defenseless women, children, old and young. The purpose was naturally to sell Gu Xun's favor.

For the soldiers of the Qin Army, this kind of order is inexplicable. It will not only reduce their military merits, but may also cause additional casualties to their own side - which will offset part of the military merits.

After calculating the two ends, wouldn't a battle be fought in vain?

Under normal circumstances, soldiers would not pay attention to such orders. After all, who can take this into account in a war? Unless they really have to do so for some reason, even the general of an army cannot punish soldiers for their own personal reasons.

However, this operation was quite special. It was related to Ying Zheng's dream of immortality. No matter how many heads he killed, it could not compare with the success of successfully transporting the Fuso sacred tree back. Meng Tian could naturally use this to replace the soldiers' desire for military glory.

As long as the military merits are in place, there will be no trouble.

To put it bluntly, it is not suitable to use the Golden Fire Cavalry he brought to attack the mountain. Otherwise, he would not have to use this method at all. With an order, any order of the Golden Fire Cavalry can be absolutely carried out.

After all, his control over these soldiers transferred from Lantian Camp was limited.

Fortunately, this mission is not difficult and does not require him to control this unit to the extent that he can control it like an arm and a finger.

Meng Tian didn't even direct the attack on the mountain - he had almost explored the environment around Shushan in the past two days. There was no danger to defend at all. At most, he had the advantage of being condescending. He needed to pay attention to the bows and arrows of the Shushan people, but They have little communication with the outside world, and the quantity and quality of their ordnance are very worrying.

In such a war, which is almost equivalent to an encounter, there is still a gap of more than five times in the strength of the two sides. Coupled with the gap in armaments and military literacy...

To sum up, basically F2A is done once it is installed. There is really no need to incorporate any technical content, or in other words, no technical content can be incorporated at all, and there is no room for manipulation.

As long as the deputy general follows the plan and advances the front line steadily.    ……………

Shushan Shanyin, Yuyuan's sealing place.

Gu Xun's ears twitched slightly, and he vaguely heard an almost imperceptible noise. He had a rough idea in his mind, and said to the Great Elder and Shi Qing, "It seems that the battle has officially begun."

The location of Yu Yuan's seal is too remote, and the sound can be transmitted here. Even if it is just such a weak noise, it can only be called the thunderous movement caused by tens of thousands of people fighting.

When the great elder heard this, the kind smile that had almost always been on his lips finally disappeared, and a sad look appeared on his face. When people were about to die, the people he was most worried about were his own clansmen.

Although he has protected those who should be protected, preserved those who should not be killed, and indulged those who are not afraid of death, and has almost made what he thinks is the most appropriate arrangement, but... if possible, he still hopes that everyone on Shushan will be safe and sound. , everything is as before.

Shi Qing's eyes also turned red, no longer as cold and quiet as before.

Those are the tribesmen they live with day and night, life and death... are always the most difficult for people to look away from, whether it is their own or others.

Gu Xun stood aside and could only remain silent.

The great elder had a bitter look on his face, but he still remembered his mission. After calculating the time, he said to Shi Qing, "It's noon, which is the most suitable time. Qing'er, we can't waste any more time. "

"Huh..." Shi Qing took a deep breath, suppressed the sadness in his heart, and nodded solemnly, "I understand, Great Elder."

Gu Xun took his leave at this time and said, "Gu can't help me, so I won't bother you two."

"It's better to leave it to you here."

"Two of you, let's just say goodbye!" Gu Xun clasped his hands and said goodbye solemnly.

The great elder forced a smile at this time, raised his hands and returned the greeting, "Then, farewell, Mr. Gu."

"At this last moment, I would like to thank you once again for your help to Shushan."

"Anyway, without you, Shushan's situation would be even worse than it is now."

Gu Xun didn't say anything, just waved his hand, turned around and disappeared.

After Gu Xun left, the great elder removed his smile, showed a solemn look, and said to Shi Qing in a solemn voice, "Qing'er, prepare... for the sun ceremony."

The Sun Festival Ceremony is the most important and grandest ceremony in Shushan, and it is also the least-held god-sacrifice ceremony, because every time it is held, it means that there is a big problem with Yu Yuan's seal.

It is precisely in order to stabilize the seal and ensure that there is no problem with the seal that Shushan will hold this kind of god-sacrifice ceremony, using the lives of the Shushan elder and the Shushan princess as sacrifices, and praying for the protection of the sacred tree.

In theory, this kind of sacrifice must be attended by the entire Shushan clan, but this is just a rule set simply for the sake of ostentation, and has no meaning for the sacrifice itself.

The only two people who are truly indispensable are the Great Elder of Shushan and the Princess of Shushan.

The current situation in Shushan obviously does not allow any more ostentation, so the Great Elder hastily obeyed the authority and omitted all unnecessary links, retaining only the most critical part.
