It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Zhenwu Hall, a pure green light,

Penetrate the dome and shoot straight at the bull.

Lu Danyang was overjoyed.

A saint finally appeared in Longhu Mountain!
The new saint was none other than He Xiu'gu, who almost died in the underground palace of the imperial city.

No one expected that He Xiugu, who was almost on the verge of collapse,
With Lu Yuan's elixirs and the careful care of his fellow disciples, he miraculously recovered by more than half.

What’s even more amazing is that he only relies on half of his spiritual power.

He Xiu Gu broke through the realm in one fell swoop and entered the realm of saint.

At this moment, her white hair turned black, and her skin became smooth and soft.

He returned to his original, innocent appearance when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Congratulations, Junior Sister, on becoming a Saint!"

"Congratulations, Master, on becoming a Saint!"

Waves of congratulations rang out from all directions.

For the first time since the death of the former leader Huang Xuanyi, the Dragon and Tiger Sect was excited.

Although Tianzun is rare, he is not uncommon.

Which major sect doesn’t have one or two such people?

Even the eight border armies have dozens of them, but saints are different.

Someone once commented: Below a saint, we are all ants.

Although it is too exaggerated, it at least shows that saints are the top combat force.

Amid the thunderous congratulations, He Xiu Gu was not very happy.
Instead, he said to Lu Danyang calmly, "Thank you, Senior Brother, for protecting me!"

Lu Danyang respectfully handed over the master's token.

"According to the sect rules, Junior Sister is now the head of Longhu Mountain."

On the path of cultivation, realm is what matters most.

He Xiu Gu was the first to break through to become a saint and took over as the head of the sect legally and legitimately.

However, she shook her head and said:
"I want to continue my retreat and practice, so I'll let my senior brother take on the responsibility of being the sect leader..."

"Even if Junior Sister wants to practice, it won't prevent her from taking over as the headmaster, right?"

He Xiugu said:
"I don't have the energy to manage sect affairs right now.
Only by continuous improvement can we break through the realm of the True Immortal, please understand, Senior Brother..."

Lu Danyang was very surprised for a moment.

Han Dieyi thought for a moment and said:

"Since Xiu Gu is concentrating on cultivation, it is understandable that Senior Brother temporarily takes over as the head of the sect."

Lu Danyang could only take back the leader’s token.

He Xiu Gu glanced around and waved to someone:
"Spirit Tiger, come here."

Zhang Linghu is the commander of China's first mixed brigade and a great master at the peak of his powers.

Following Lu Yuan's orders, he led two thousand elite guards.

Stationed in Longhu Mountain to guard against surprise attacks by the Southern Zhili Army.

During this period, both parties became more familiar with each other.

Although He Xiu Gu looks like a young girl, she is actually over a hundred years old.

Zhang Linghu did not dare to neglect it and immediately stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Saint He, please tell me what I need!"

"You have contact with Incheon, right?"

"Yes! Normally, once in the morning and once in the evening."

"Please inform them that I will be going to Incheon soon to pay a visit to your King and Queen Zuo."

Lu Danyang, Han Dieyi and others immediately understood.

He Xiu Gu wanted to find two powerful immortals to ask for advice on spiritual cultivation.

Zhang Linghu immediately clasped his fists and said, "Yes! I will go back and send the letter right away!"

After everyone left, He Xiu Gu looked around at her fellow disciples.
She smiled and said:

"The opportunity for this breakthrough lies in a moment of enlightenment...

Just now, I met Senior Brother Da and Senior Brother Tong Xuan,

Do you know what they said to me?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. If she hadn't been successfully promoted, they would have thought she was talking nonsense.

"The eldest brother said: What is the joy of life, and what is the sorrow of death?

Being too persistent will never lead to success.

I asked him: Since you know all this, why haven’t you achieved the right result?

He said: "Thinking about it and doing it are two completely different things."

Everyone listened attentively, chewing over and over again.

He Xiugu said again:
"Senior Brother Tongxuan told me: The essence of the world is reincarnation.

Like Yin and Yang Tai Chi, there is stillness in movement and something comes from nothing.

I asked him: How to get rid of reincarnation?

He smiled and said: "No one can get rid of it, just let it go."

Everyone became even more confused and looked at He Xiu Gu.

He Xiugu sighed and said quietly:
"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name...

Some things can never be forced.”

Lan Lanlu suddenly asked, "Does it mean 'Tao follows nature'?"

He Xiugu smiled and said:

"Practice the great way, each person has his own way. If I say yes, do you really believe it in your heart?"

As she spoke, she stood up and walked briskly.
Walk all the way to the temple gate and look to the northeast.

"I came, I saw, I left, that's all."

Although what He Xiu Gu said was very mysterious,

But, my fellow disciples who are Heavenly Lords all understand.

Opportunities and insights cannot be expressed in words but can only be understood.

Zhang Linghu returned to Shipai Town at the foot of the mountain.
Write He Xiugu's request in code.

It was loaded onto three carrier pigeons and released.

Longhu Mountain is 3000 miles away from Incheon. If nothing goes wrong, it can be reached in two days.

After sending the secret report, Zhang Linghu strolled around the town with a box gun.

Before he knew it, he arrived at a small hill outside the town.

This is a firepower point, equipped with machine guns, mortars, bunkers, and trenches.

Moreover, you can also see the fortifications built by Shenling’s army ten miles away.

For the organization of the mixed brigade, Lu Yuan directly copied the "regiment, battalion, company, platoon" system.

The battalion commander who was guarding this place came running over happily.

"Boss, I heard that a saint appeared in Longhu Mountain?"

Zhang Linghu nodded and said, "Yes, it's Saint He."

The commander of the first battalion is at the peak of the Heavenly Master realm and is an expert in fighting.

He said enviously: "Wow! Breaking through to the Saint Realm, how awesome is that!"

Zhang Linghu didn't respond.

He has been at the peak of the Grand Heavenly Master for several years, but he has not been able to find an opportunity.

It makes me feel bad to see others get promoted.

"Is there any movement on the other side?"

A battalion commander said, "Oh, don't mention it.

These lazy pigs only know how to drink and eat meat all day long, and none of them are willing to show up..."

Zhang Linghu raised his eyebrows and said, "What? You touched him again?"

The battalion commander immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn and said quickly, "No..."

"No? Then how do you know that they drink and eat meat?"

Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, the battalion commander had to tell the truth.

"Boss, you can't blame me.

They were having a barbecue in the bunker, and it was filled with smoke.

I thought they were using smoke bombs... to attack..."

Zhang Linghu kicked him:
"It's a bullshit attack from a distance of ten miles!

I see you're just itching to do something!"

A battalion commander was kicked, but he still had the nerve to come forward.

"Boss, I see the other side is in a mess.
Anyway, brothers, you are free now, why not kill them?

As long as you give the order, I promise to end the battle in a quarter of an hour!"

In fact, after the 1st Mixed Brigade stationed at Longhu Mountain,

The surrounding government troops consciously retreated ten miles to guard the important checkpoints.

It’s no wonder that they passively avoid fighting, it’s because “the other side is too strong”.

At that time, the 100,000-strong army of Nanzhili failed to capture the city, and even the commander-in-chief died.

These local armies, which have not fought a war for many years, are more cunning than ghosts.

It's just a job to get by. Just try to fool the people above.

Therefore, when Zhang Linghu arrived at Shipai Town, he didn't see a single ghost.

To be honest, Zhang Linghu wanted to fight.
However, the 2nd Mixed Brigade had not arrived yet, so he could only endure it.

Calculating the time, the first batch of troops of the Second Brigade will take another ten days...

Wait till they come before we can start fighting.
The first step was to clear out the county governments around Longhu Mountain and fight westward to the Hunan-Jiangxi border.

Then wait another month.

When the Third Brigade arrives, we can capture Shonan Province and use it as a base.

Once southern Hunan is captured, the situation may change.

To the south is Guangdong and Guangxi, to the west is Sichuan and Shu,

To the north was Wuchang, the important center of the empire, and to the east was Southern Zhili.

If things go wrong, Emperor Linggui will be furious.
The three mixed brigades were about to be besieged on all sides.

However, as a young member of the Imperial Guard, Zhang Linghu has always been nicknamed "Tiger Crazy" in the army.

There are wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

He is not afraid of fighting, but he is afraid that he will not have enough fun fighting.

However, military orders are military orders.

Lu Yuan asked him to "hold on and wait for help, and then launch the attack."

As a reorganized army, the most taboo is to pretend to obey but actually disobey.

What's more, there are military police watching us.

After taking a look at the fortifications on the opposite side, Zhang Linghu shouted:

"Listen up, everyone, stay here and keep quiet.

Wait another ten days, and then you can fight the battle!"

However, no one expected that
An accident destroyed the peaceful situation in Shipai Town.

Opposite Shipai Town is Sanliu Village, where most villagers are engaged in farming.

As we all know, in order to make money, every farmer household raises one or two pigs.

The problem lies with the pig.

A battalion commander sent someone to investigate.
The soldiers on the opposite side were barbecuing, eating meat and drinking wine, and what they were barbecuing was the pigs from the farmers' homes.

In the evening, the farmers found that the pigs that went out to forage for food

Since he hadn't returned to the pigpen, he took his family to look for him.

After searching for a long time, we finally found the soldiers' position.
As a result, pig hair and offal were found.

A pig carries the hope of the farmer.

The farmers naturally refused to accept the fact that the soldiers had secretly killed the animals and eaten their meat, so they started to make a fuss.

The officers and soldiers were in the wrong, and they kept denying and evading.
The farmer was honest and wanted to enter the position to complain to the officer, but the officer would not let him go.
The verbal conflict turned into a physical fight in the blink of an eye.

Then, the farmer's old wife was pushed down, hit her head against a rock, and started bleeding.

The farmer's teenage son was so angry that he picked up stones from the ground and threw them at the soldiers.

It hit the captain's nose exactly.

The nosebleed could not be stopped.
"Attacking government troops is a crime punishable by death!"

"puff!"

The soldier stabbed the farmer's son to death with one shot.

This time, I stirred up a hornet's nest.

The farmer's only son died, and the whole family had no hope.

They rushed forward one after another, scratching and biting.

Naturally, killing one person is killing, killing a whole family is also killing.

Soon, the farmer and his family set off in an orderly manner.

However, there is no wall that is impenetrable.

When the villagers of Sanliu Village learned that the government troops had slaughtered an entire farmer's family, they all gnashed their teeth.

Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer and yelled:

"These beasts eat our food and live in our houses.
They dared not fight the rebels, but massacred the people instead.

Today it's his house, tomorrow it could be ours, why not rebel! "

Someone asked: "The government will send more soldiers...what should we do?"

The leader said: "Kill these beasts.
We will take refuge in Longhu Mountain, and the soldiers will not dare to attack us..."

Hey, come on, that's a really good idea.

The people have sharp eyes.
These cowardly officers and soldiers specifically bully the defenseless farmers.

When facing the rebels, they didn't even dare to fart.

So, hundreds of young and strong men from Sanliu Village took farm tools and sneaked into the soldiers' positions at night.

After a melee, both sides were injured.

However, as the patrol team returned to defend, the situation immediately reversed.

It is so easy for the army to kill civilians.

Finally, there were only 20 to 30 young and strong farmers left. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately fled.

In the dark battle, dozens of officers and soldiers died.
Naturally, they could not swallow this humiliation and kept their eyes on the group of people, pursuing them relentlessly.

Somehow, I escaped and was chased, running around,

Two groups of people actually ran towards Shipai Town.

In the darkness, as they approached the mixed brigade's position,
Frontline soldiers, report to the battalion commander immediately.

The battalion commander thought for a moment and said, "If we are attacked, just fight!"

The military order only said that we cannot attack, but it did not say that we cannot counterattack.
Therefore, the battalion commander believed that there was nothing wrong with his order.

The company commander is a stubborn person.
Upon receiving the order, he ordered without hesitation: "Wait for them to make the first move, then kill them!"

In order to escape, the young and strong farmers instinctively ran towards Shipai Town.

The officers and soldiers were behind, some holding swords, some holding spears, and a few holding bows and crossbows.'

The farmers were so fast that even weapons and guns could not reach them.

Therefore, the crossbowmen could only shoot arrows at the figure in front.

After chasing them all the way, they have shot and killed more than a dozen of them, and they are immersed in the pleasure of hunting.

As luck would have it, an arrow hit the trench cover with a whoosh.

"puff!"

The nearby soldiers immediately noticed the arrows shot from the opposite direction and reported:

"The enemy is shooting arrows at me!"

The company commander is also a backbone of the young and vigorous faction. He feels uncomfortable without a battle to fight.

There was an opening today, this is a godsend opportunity!

He immediately yelled, "Fire flares!"

"call out!"

A flare rose slowly.

It's like a bright moon hanging high in the sky.

A mile away, the soldiers and farmers all stopped in confusion and stared at the flares.

Suddenly, a young farmer woke up and shouted:
"The soldiers are killing people, please save us!"

The officers and soldiers were startled.
I didn’t expect that they would end up in the Chinese Army’s territory. What should I do?

The company commander rushed out of the trench like a tiger and pounced on thirty or forty officers and soldiers.

"One row, follow me!"

Thirty figures followed closely behind him, like cheetahs.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the officers and soldiers immediately ran away.

The company commander chased after him, half-crouched, raised his bolt-action rifle and took aim.

"Snapped!"

A soldier fell.

"Crack, snap!"

Another one fell.

Seeing that the soldiers were fleeing very quickly, he stood up and continued to chase them.

The battalion commander ordered, "Fight to your heart's content!", so we could fight however we wanted.

So, the role of hunting changed.
From time to time, gunshots were heard in the pursuit team, and local soldiers were shot and fell from time to time.

A quarter of an hour later, the company commander had already reached the position of the officers and soldiers at Sanliu Village.

A platoon leader asked, "Company commander, shall we fight?"

The company commander watched four or five soldiers flee into the trenches and said with gritted teeth:

"Go! Kill them!"

There are two hundred officers and soldiers guarding the Sanliu Village defense line, which has an absolute advantage in numbers.

If they rely on the fortifications, the thirty men led by a company commander may not be able to gain an advantage.

However, when the flag officer leading the team heard that the Chinese army was attacking, he was frightened out of his wits.

He immediately mounted his horse and said:

"You guys hold on, I'll go to the back to ask the general for help..."

Oh my God!
How could he have the nerve to say such nonsense?
The flag officer didn't care about his face.

He slapped the horse's butt and ran away with a "hiss".

The hearts of the remaining 150-odd officers and soldiers suddenly fell to the bottom.

Most people have families and don't want to fight, nor have they ever fought.

So, they followed suit, jumped out of the fortifications and ran towards the rear.

When a company commander led his troops to the battlefield,
There were only seven or eight stupid young men holding knives and guns trying to stop them.

"Clap clap clap!"

After a burst of gunfire, they all lay down.

The company commander was confused.

What happened?
There were more than two hundred people during the day, why are there only these few now?
Suddenly, a platoon leader pointed to the front and said:

"Captain, they're there. If we don't chase them, they'll run away!"

After all, the captain was young and energetic, so he said without thinking:
"Alright! I'll beat the fallen dog tonight! Follow me!"

As a result, the pursuit resulted in a great defeat of the officers and soldiers.

The general flag heard from the flag officer that thousands of Chinese troops launched a full-scale attack.
He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he fled to the rear in a carriage with his followers.

The general flag officer ran away, and the army of thousands of people,

They immediately scattered like birds and beasts, all fleeing in panic.

In order to run faster, the officers and soldiers threw their armor, weapons and supplies all over the ground.

So, at dawn,
A company commander led a row of soldiers and captured the general flag camp without bloodshed.

However, Guixi County, which is next to the General Flag Camp,
Officials of all ranks surrendered, and the people lined the streets to welcome him.

The company commander and a row of soldiers were all stunned when they saw the open city gate.

Are the officers and soldiers so immune to being beaten? (End of this chapter)
