Kang Shi showed great power.
This put a lot of pressure on Xun Zhen.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured.
"Mr. Shen has so many talented people under his command..."
He knew that the scholar that Yan An liked must have outstanding qualities, but he did not expect that Kang Shi's fangs would be so strong and dazzling.
This is good, it makes me feel more at ease.
In fact, Xun Zhen felt a little regretful.
Do you regret making a decision too quickly
Do you want to meet Mr. Shen in person before making a decision
If Mr. Shen dislikes him, wouldn't this action of his be like trying to please someone and making himself look bad
Looking at the overall situation, Shen Tang has some advantages except for his reputation, but the rest are disadvantages. The foundation is too weak, Longwu County is in a remote location, and it is not easy to develop in any way. It is conceivable how difficult it is to gain a foothold in the Northwest Continent where wars are endless.
I am in this situation, it's too expensive.
The construction of the Palace of Literature and the development of the ways of scholars are all related to "money", which is the foundation for scholars of literature and art to establish themselves.
Moreover, it is not enough to just spend money, but there is another fatal "threshold" to truly activate the Way of the Scholar...
The skill that Kang Shi and Chu Yao showed today was like a reassurance to him - a recommendation from Yan An might not mean anything, after all, Yan Xingning also had his mistakes, such as that annoying junior brother, but to make Chu Yao and Kang Shi sincerely assist him, this Mr. Shen must have extraordinary abilities that he didn't know about. The boat he picked might be more stable than he thought.
in this way-
"It's not easy for me to hide it..." Xun Zhen didn't have the patience to gain Shen Tang's trust, sit on the bench for two years, and slowly plot to gain his favor. What he wanted was to be favored as soon as he entered the government, not to use him as a talent.
So, this battle is crucial.
Even if he cannot surpass Chu Yao and the other two in terms of military exploits, he should at least be on par with them so that people will not dare to neglect him.
Xun Zhen made up his mind, and his eyes turned colder as he looked at the two major military formations on the flanks of the Shiwu. Every step taken by the chess pieces in his hand was born to achieve his goal!
A stepping stone should stay as a stepping stone!
Bang!
Fingertips point empty.
The shiny chess pieces formed by the literary energy fell one by one.
The evil spirit raged on the chessboard, sometimes with the flash of swords and sometimes with the roar of dragons and tigers. The chess pieces turned into powder and then reunited. If someone was by his side, they would see the layout of the black and white pieces on his chessboard, which matched the situation below.
The chess situation is constantly changing.
Xun Zhen understood it clearly.
The two wings of the Ten Crows tried to break through, but were held back by the evil spirits that Xun Zhen had brought with him. The latter moved in unison and reacted quickly, and it was obvious that someone was behind the scenes controlling and directing them. The Ten Crows were unable to advance or retreat.
At the border where the two armies clashed, blood gathered into a "river" and broken limbs and debris could be seen everywhere, which shows how brutal the battle was.
The casualty figures continue to rise.
Shi Wu was naturally furious.
The total number of troops that went to fight at Yonggu Pass was no more than 30,000.
Only 30% of them are alive.
The heroes were charging in front, and the living soldiers were supporting them from behind. Although they had made some gains, they had not killed many living people. If they continued like this, the losses would be incalculable. The most hateful thing was the scholar, who seemed to have seen through the weakness of their own army.
The Shiwu faction immediately ordered an attack to kill Kang Shi.
But Chu Jie and Zhao Feng are not just for show.
How could we let them succeed so easily
Even in a dangerous battlefield, Kang Shi showed no fear. He was not only confident in himself, but also trusted his colleagues.
In the main tent of the central army, the Ten Crows King had a gloomy look on his face.
"Don't we have any capable men in our army to fight against them?"
No one spoke, nor dared to speak.
Shiwu also raised a lot of scholars who assisted the army or commanded the overall situation. They also tried to play games with scholars like Chu Yao, but no matter how they deployed their troops, they were suppressed by the opponent. Especially the scholars on the left and right wings...
No one knows where the enemy assassination comes from.
A brave one trembled and said, "Your Majesty, the people at Yonggu Pass seem to have the skills of a palace scholar or a scholar..."
To put it bluntly, the gap between scholars with these two things and ordinary scholars is greater than that between humans and dogs.
It's not at the same level at all.
The Ten Crows King asked, "We don't have any?"
Everyone was silent.
Yes, there is...
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. The Ten Crows had plenty of money, and they spent money to recruit many talented scholars to work for them.
but-
The literati are not the main force in the front line. Since the two armies started fighting, the literati have never slacked off in their duties. We can't ask them to fight the enemy head-on with weapons, right? Your Majesty's question is not very smart.
The Ten Crow Kings suppressed his anger.
"Is there no way to restrain it?"
Everyone: “…”
If there really was a way, they wouldn't have kept it secret. In this case, we can't blame their scholars for being weak, but only blame the other scholars for not following the usual path. Just to put it simply, who has ever seen a scholar who is more ruthless than a brave warrior? Three of them at once!
I don’t know where Chu Jie got the help from.
Or maybe that bastard Zheng Qiao had anticipated this and had ambushed his troops and men long ago, just waiting for them to fall into the trap
Some people have already begun to regret sending troops.
It makes sense if you think about it. The lowly people in the inner city are cunning and low-class. This may not be a conspiracy to lure you into a trap...
The Ten Crows King was about to break his back teeth, so he took a deep breath to calm down and asked, "What did Su Shiyilu say?"
Su Shiyilu went to the front line to fight with his old rival Chu Jie at this time. He allowed such a brave warrior like Chu Jie to enter the battle and kill indiscriminately. This guy had scholars assisting him at the side. His martial energy would not be exhausted in a short time, and no matter how many people there were, they would not be enough for him to kill.
"My king, the general said we cannot retreat now."
The Ten Crows King frowned: "Reason?"
"Yonggu Pass may seem difficult to attack, but 70% of their troops are heroic spirits, so they can't hold out for long."
Although the heroes fight bravely, the price is not small. Every breath consumes a huge amount of the luck of the border barrier.
They can waste time and delay.
As long as we can hold on until then, we will win!
Immediately, an important official who was at odds with Su Shiyilu stepped out and questioned, "It can't be maintained for long. What does 'can't be maintained for long' mean? It must take at least an hour, right? If our army delays for a little longer, the casualties will increase. Is he responsible for all this?"
"that is!"
"… Is it an hour, half a day, or a day? It's not a good idea to waste time like this…"
Previously, they thought they would win the battle, and everyone rushed to fight and kill the enemy. They arranged the elite troops of their own tribe in the vanguard of the central army and on the left and right wings. As a result, the battle situation developed unfavorably.
The casualties are still unknown.
If the battle dragged on for too long, they would lose everything, which also meant that the strength of the tribe would decline significantly.
There is a huge risk of being annexed after returning.
Several adult princes who thought they could gain merit in this battle and increase their political bargaining chips were also anxious and said, "… How about we withdraw our troops for the time being and make plans for the future?"
Once someone took the lead, more people chose to withdraw their troops. They chattered and argued endlessly. They didn't want the elite of their tribe to be used as cannon fodder to delay the enemy.
The Ten Crows King closed his eyes tightly, his face trembling, unwilling to give up: "…Sound the horn to call off the troops, and fight again another day!"
So, when Su Shiyilu heard the order to withdraw, he was so angry that he started cursing and was kicked by Chu Jie.
"Hahaha—you're withdrawing!"
Su Shiyilu's eyes turned red with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
Today's battle was indeed frustrating.
Every step of development was not in line with expectations.
"Just wait, I will take your head next time!"
Chu Jie almost told him with a handkerchief in his hand—
Uncle, come again next time.
Su Shiyilu was almost choked by a mouthful of blood.
The Ten Crows took the initiative to withdraw their troops, but some people disagreed.
"You can't come and go as you please here!" Xun Zhen was thinking about his next step, but he didn't expect the Ten Crows to retreat at this critical moment. If they retreated, where would his military merits be? He immediately flipped the chessboard in front of him with a palm.
Launch the way of the scribes.
Think quickly and be smart.
The superficial understanding of this way of the scholar is that in a critical moment, a good idea comes to mind, and the IQ soars to the sky, but the actual application is not like this. The real magic is to resonate with the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas and obtain the most needed spiritual words at the moment. No matter whether Xun Zhen has learned it or not!
Once launched, it will be full force!
"It is better to pursue the enemy with the remaining courage—" The evil spirit's movements paused, and the next moment the evil spirit burst out from the inside out, lingering around the body, and transformed into a full set of armor with a sinister aura. Although the armor was heavy, their speed was more than doubled.
Kang Shi, who was exhausted but still pretending to be calm, couldn't help but open his eyes wide -
This is a scale of tens of thousands of people!

"My gold nugget!"
A scream came out of Shen Tang's mouth.
The only dime of gold she had kept in her purse, which she treasured, also turned into golden mist and flew away...
"Kang-Ji-Shou-"
Shen Tang was so grief-stricken that he gritted his teeth!
Stamp your feet hard and vent your anger!
"Wait for me to come back! You've been waiting for 007 your whole life!"
She was so angry that she was shaking all over. Even if she was criticized as a capitalist who should hang street lamps, she would squeeze Kangshi to death!
Gu Chi and Jiang Sheng rushed over immediately after hearing the noise, but their expressions were completely different. The former tried to hold back his laughter, as he couldn't watch his master's excitement at any time. The latter was stunned for a moment, guessing -
What did he see
