On the 24th day of the twelfth month of the Nanshan calendar, under the order of the national teacher Lu Zhen, the defenders of the four major mountains of Nanshan State, the two boundary mountains, Xiangshan, Fengxiang Mountain, and Yunshan were all evacuated.Overnight, more than 30 cities fell.The beasts of the four mountains rushed like a flood to all directions, stepping on the great road that was once only accessible to humans, entering towns that were once inhabited only by humans.The farmland cultivated by humans has been trampled by wild beasts, and the domestic animals raised by humans have become food for wild beasts, and the homes that humans have been operating for a long time have become a den of wild beasts.There are also some people who have not had time to evacuate, or who are unwilling to leave their homeland, and have been slaughtered by wild beasts.Some of the people who survived were panicked, but they also found that there was no way out, so they could only bite their tongues and kill themselves, or take a rope and hang themselves on a branch.Some people are frightened and crazy, and they can't escape the blood of the beast, but they also avoid the fear of death.Perhaps it was only then that these people realized that the beast threat mentioned by the court was not groundless, nor was it exaggerated.It's a pity that it's too late to regret it.…… Most of the people are lucky.Under the fierce onslaught of wild beasts, the defenders of the mountains held out for seven days, buying precious time for the evacuation of the people of the cities.Under the leadership of the city lords, most of the people retreated to the cities behind.When the defenders of the mountains retreated, they took some of the people with them.In total, about eighty percent of the people were evacuated safely.As for the remaining two floors......
With the arrival of the people in the cities and towns in front, several nearby cities in the rear were overcrowded for a time and supplies were in short supply.There are those who hoard and live in strange places, there are those who make profits at high prices, and there are those who fish in troubled waters.All of a sudden, the security of these cities became chaotic, and Lu Zhen, who was busy thinking about how to deal with the beasts, had to divide a part of the army to help maintain order in several cities.Of course, there are also some people who heard about the fighting in front of them and thought that the city where they were located was not safe, and after selling their property, they dragged their families and evacuated to the rear, which slightly relieved some pressure on several cities.…… In a camp outside the Acropolis, Lu Zhen sat cross-legged at a table, reading a mountain of books.It is impossible to say that it will not interfere in the affairs of the government.As the lord of the country canonized him as a national teacher a few days ago, there were more letters on the desk, some from the ministers of the court and some from local officials.Some people expressed their loyalty, some analyzed the situation and recommended themselves, and of course some people questioned his retreat and wrote letters to scold him.Overall, there was little opposition.In fact, Lu Zhen himself was still satisfied with this retreat.Although some people died and some land was lost, it was all within acceptable ranges.The beast is powerful, and there is always a price to pay.Of course, the most dissatisfied with this evacuation should be the people who failed to evacuate, and it is obvious that their voices cannot reach Lu Zhen......
After reading the book for a while, Lu Zhen was a little sleepy, and was about to take a nap at the desk when a voice came from the door: "National Teacher, Immortal Master Li asks to see you." ”When Lu Zhen heard this, his spirits perked up, and he got up to greet him at the door.The two entered the room and talked about what to do in the future.Among the four mountains, the Two Realms Mountain, Fengxiang Mountain, and Xiangshan Mountain are all in the frontier, and it is nothing to abandon a few cities, only into the cloud mountain, which is in the middle of the Nanshan country, and not far behind is the retreat of the Jingshi without retreat.After abandoning Jiangyin City and several other cities, only the small barrier of the Acropolis was left in Jingshi, and some ministers in the DPRK and China had proposed to move the capital.It is impossible to move the capital, and abandoning the previous cities is already Lu Zhen's bottom line.If the capital is moved, not to mention the loss of labor and money, it is easy to make Nanshan lose its fighting spirit and fall into a state of reluctance.Of course, it is also about the face of him, Lu Zhen, the sect master.Since it is impossible to move the capital, it can only be strictly guarded, and the beast cannot be allowed to take another half step forward.There were also ministers who proposed to withdraw the northern defenders and return to the Beijing Division, but Lu Zhen also rejected them.There is such a tiger and wolf country as Jingguo in the north, if the defenders are withdrawn, wouldn't it be equivalent to opening the door to Jingguo?
Li Zheng agrees with this.In fact, Li Zheng advocated that not only should the defenders not be withdrawn from the north, but the focus of defense should be on the north."
Huh?"
Lu Zhen was a little puzzled, although he didn't agree with giving up the defense in the north, but he felt that the defense of the beast on this side was equally important.Li Zhengdao: "National Teacher, I'm not saying that the defense here is not important, but because, I think, the beasts on this side don't pose much of a threat to us. ”"How much of a threat is it anymore?
The beast is menacing, and may not be satisfied with the cities we have abandoned. ”Li Zheng smiled slightly and said, "The burden on the shoulders of the national teacher is too heavy to see the situation clearly.Compared to us humans, those beasts are loosely disciplined, and now that we have abandoned so many cities, they are afraid that they are not all over the mountains and wilderness.The beasts gathered together, of course, are extremely fierce and difficult to beat, and now that the beasts are scattered everywhere, how much more threat can they pose to us?
”Lu Zhen lowered his head and pondered for a while, then nodded: "Immortal Master Gao Zhi." ”Li Zhengdao: "The national teacher is too prestigious, and the bystanders are clear."
In addition, there is one more thing to talk about with the national teacher. ”Lu Zhen said: "The immortal master is talking about that strange person?
I have already arranged this matter, and the immortal master does not have to worry about it. ”Li Zhengdao: "In addition, there is one more thing. ”Lu Zhen: "One more thing?"
”Li Zhengdao: "Yes, during this time, I observed on the battlefield and always felt that it was wrong.Fake things are in the same vein, fake words are the sect, but on the battlefield, I always feel that we still rely too much on our own strength, and we have not brought out the essence of this fake word. ”"The essence of fake words?
Immortal Master refers to those strange and ingenious techniques?
”Lu Zhen is worthy of being the sect master of the fake lineage, and when Li Zheng mentioned it, he immediately reacted.Li Zhengdao: "Yes, when I first arrived at Yunshan Mountain, I saw an old man surnamed Leng who didn't know what props he could use to keep himself flying in the air. ”Lu Zhen said: "Yes, his name is Leng Feng, he was originally an elder of my fake lineage, and he has a high affinity for the wind, but unfortunately, he is obsessed with flying, and he has gone crazy, not only has he turned himself into a person who is not a ghost or a ghost, but also has a great change in temperament, hurting many of our disciples, I have no choice but to drive him out of the sect, who knows that this guy has actually thrown himself into the camp of the beast......
"Actually, in addition to Leng Feng, there are also other people in our fake lineage who are too involved in cultivation and mutate, some can barely be saved, and some can only be killed in pain......
Although my fake thing is based on fake characters, it has strict restrictions on disciples, and it is not allowed to be too contaminated with all kinds of strange and obscene techniques, so as not to mutate. ”Li Zheng smiled and said, "Master Guoshi, are you choking on food?"
When people eat and are choked, is it the fault of the food?
How can food be wasted because of this?
It's a big deal, just be careful when eating in the future. ”"I cut vegetables with a knife and accidentally cut my finger, is it the fault of the knife?
How can you stop using kitchen knives because of this?
It's a big deal to be careful when cutting vegetables in the future. ”"The so-called tricks and tricks are the same.Just because someone is too addicted to it and it causes mutations, you can't think that there is something wrong with these things themselves.It's the people who are in trouble, not these things. ”"Since it is human beings who have problems, we avoid them from the human aspect, how can we abandon them?
Think about it, Master Guoshi, if we had all kinds of automatic devices when defending, and we could strike at wild beasts without human exertion, how could we fight so hard?
”"However, the mutation ......"
Lu Zhen was still worried.Li Zhengdao: "Children with big knives, have you heard of the national teacher?"
When a child holds a big knife, it can hurt others, but it can also hurt himself, because his strength is insufficient.As long as it grows its strength, the broadsword will no longer be a scourge, but can become a sharp weapon.People who are contaminated with strange skills and tricks are prone to mutation because they have too much desire and insufficient concentration.As long as we cultivate their concentration and prevent them from becoming too addicted, we will not have to worry about mutation. ”After Li Zheng finished speaking, Lu Zhen's eyes lit up.Yes, timid, how can you be a big husband?
If there is a problem, just solve the problem, how can you arbitrarily say that this road is not working?
The fake vein, with the fake as the sect, it seems that the fake vein is going to be carried forward in his Lu Zhen's hands.Lu Zhen seemed to be able to see that after unloading this heavy burden, the road of the fake thing would get wider and wider.After Li Zheng left, Lu Zhen no longer had a trace of sleepiness, and summoned the following elders to discuss the development of strange and skillful techniques.It is foreseeable that the struggle against the beasts will continue for a while, maybe years, maybe decades, but with the help of auxiliary items, these beasts are fierce, but what is there to fear?
Jing Guo in the north is eyeing the tiger, and the strange and ingenious techniques he has developed can also be used in battle formations against enemy countries in the future.Internal and external troubles, intertwined and persecutive, seem to pull Nanshan Kingdom into boundless darkness, and the tricks and tricks will become a bright light to light up Nanshan Kingdom.
