Back Off, Let Me Come

"Brother Zhaode, aren't you curious?"

Wu Xian paused for a moment with the wine cup in his hand.

"What are you curious about?"

Shen Tang took a sip of the goat's milk that was full of milky aroma. This goat's milk had the smell removed, and with a little maltose and tea leaves, it didn't taste bad. However, drinking milk on such occasions would be a downgrade: "Before my little sister, no women seemed to be able to practice."

Why is Wu Xian not curious at all?

Haha, how is this possible?

He was naturally curious, but Shen Tang's identity as the leader of a force came before gender. Wu Xian also wanted to promote cooperation between the two families to overcome the current predicament, so naturally he would not provoke Shen Tang without a look and pry into her secrets. Can only be silent.

"Mei Shen is willing to confide, and Brother Yu is all ears."

Wu Xian kicked the ball back lightly.

Shen Tang said: "To be honest with Brother Zhaode, I am actually not very clear about it myself, so I am able to practice inexplicably. Maybe it is because my qualifications are too high and I have exceeded the limit?"

Wu Xian: "..."

Shen Tang was amused by his expression, and Wu Xian also laughed twice.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food. Wu Xian suddenly let out a sigh of regret, and Shen Tang asked, "Brother Zhaode, is there something on your mind?"

Wu Xiandao: "Brother Yu suddenly remembered Gu Ziyi."

Since the first Xiaocheng alliance, Tianhai, Shangnan and Heyin (now Longwu) have been relatively close, and have cooperated in different forms several times. Putting aside interests and the like, he still liked Gu Ziyi, at least he was open-minded.

When Gu Ren was alive, Wu Xian was very wary. Because the two people's routes overlapped somewhat, and their forces were relatively close, he could not help but be wary. Now that people are dead and the lights are out, and there is a common enemy watching eagerly, Wu Xian can't help but feel a bit sad.

After hearing this, Shen Tang's smile faded a bit, and she said, "When Huang Xiguang is eradicated, he will be avenged."

What Wu Xian was waiting for was Shen Tang's words.

He said: "Brother Yu also has this intention. Although Huang Xiguang is powerful, you and I, brother and sister, will be able to defeat it if we join forces!"

Shen Tang responded with a smile.

We really need to join forces now, and we will discuss the matter of breaking up the partnership later. The calculations in Shen Tang's heart were so loud that Gu Chi covered his ears. His strangeness caught the eyes of others, who mistakenly thought he was unwell and were fooled by Gu Chi.

Wu Xian asked again: "Does Sister Shen have a charter?"

If Shen Tang didn't have a specific plan here, he could put it forward and take some initiative - Chaoliguan fell into Shen Tang's hands first, and all the fortresses and fortresses were occupied. Although Wu Xian, the "defender", is not considered dependent, he has also lost a certain amount of initiative. This is what Wu Xian is more worried about.

He wants to seize the initiative and plan for the future.

If the two families can work together to deal with Huang Liezhanghe's troops, the final winner of the situation in the northwest continent will be selected from among them. If it were Shen Tang before participating in the Dragon Slaying Bureau, Wu Xian would definitely be the one eating meat and she drinking soup. But after the melee in the Dragon Slaying Bureau, Shen Tang made up for the lack of high-end combat power and expanded his troops. Wu Xian really didn't have the confidence to do anything to her...

In his case, the best situation is for the two families to share the northwest continent and then join hands to help each other and become allies to resist other bordering countries on the continent. A little worse, Shen Tang accounts for six and he accounts for four. The two families help and benefit each other as allies...

Of course, the premise of all this is that they survive.

Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the blueprint is, it will be in vain.

Shen Tang said: "My idea is to 'wait'!"

Wu Xian was slightly surprised: "Wait? What are you waiting for?"

"Wait until Huang Lie and the others finish dealing with the other forces."

"This can't be done! Isn't this a problem of raising tigers? Once Huang Lie and others successfully annex other large and small forces and cannibalize the rest, it will be a huge force that even you and I will be unable to shake!"

You must know that this "other force" is not only the coalition forces of the Dragon Slaying Bureau, but also the soldiers and horses of Zheng Qiaogeng's country who have not been eliminated on the frontal battlefield. If you don't kill them while they are still young, but wait for them to gather together, isn't this asking for death?

Shen Tang said: "This matter has pros and cons."

Fighting is a very expensive and expensive business.

Wu Xian calmed down: "I'd like to hear the details."

The disadvantages are naturally what Wu Xian said. Huang Lie's troops will enter a period of rapid expansion. It is optimistically estimated that he will eventually be able to gather 300,000 troops. After several rounds of expansion, Shen Tang and Wu Xian's family can only scrape together a mere 100,000 yuan.

There were three times as many enemies.

However, apart from the disadvantages, the rest are advantages.

Shen Tang pointed to the leftovers on the table: "My little sister can only eat three buckets of rice in one meal on weekdays. If it is paired with delicious food and her appetite is whetted, she may eat another bucket. But if I are forced to finish ten buckets, let alone Can I eat it? Even if I can, my stomach is so bloated that it’s almost ready to burst. Not to mention facing the enemy, it’s hard to get up and take even two steps. Brother Zhaode, does Huang Lie have such a good appetite?"

Wu Xian: "..."

Everyone in the two tents said: "..."

Does Shen Mei/Shen Jun have such a good appetite?

Shen Tang said to himself: "Huang Lie today is like a man who puts ten buckets of food on the table. He can't digest it in a short time even if he eats it. Even if he can gather 300,000 soldiers and horses, it's just a matter of patchwork. The 300,000 soldiers are on the battlefield. How can our 100,000 soldiers be obedient? The most important thing is that after Huang Xiguang eats these ten buckets of rice, there will be no food left in the warehouse. Let's wait for him to starve to death!"

She prefers to stay still.

In her eyes, Huang Lie is a greedy snake, swallowing up various forces. He looks bloated and looks threatening, but in fact he pushes himself to the edge of the cliff. One mistake and everything will be lost. By then, there will be only two "snakes" left on the chessboard: she and Wu Xian.

Wu Xian is full of bombs. The biggest one is the fierce fighting among the factions among his subordinates. As the lord, Wu Xian not only fails to be fair and just, and distinguish rewards and punishments, but also tries to find a balance between the two factions. He thought he was taking care of the overall situation, but in fact it made everyone feel dissatisfied.

Such behavior will be counterattacked sooner or later.

All she had to do was make a few random provocations at the critical moment, detonate one of them, and wait for Wu Xian to kill himself.

Shen Tang: "The more troops Huang Xiguang recruits, the bigger the food gap will be. We just need to wait patiently."

Wu Xian calmed down: "But if you wait like this..."

Shen Tang waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, no, I'm not just waiting."

She still has a lot of work to do.

Shen Tang looked at Wu Xian's face with a smile that sent chills down people's spines: "To be honest, Brother Zhaode, my little sister is in short supply right now."

She chuckled and rubbed her hands.

Wu Xian: "..."

The two families have too many soldiers and horses, and they can't all stay in Chaoliguan. The extra manpower can be sent out to do many things.

As for what to do——

Wu Xian, who had experience, had an ominous premonition.

Before he refused, Shen Tang said, "I'll provide the food!"

Open up wasteland! Open up wasteland! Open up wasteland!

Pull them all over to open up wasteland!

Wu Xian agreed immediately: "Okay!"

Working every day consumes food, and even not working also consumes food. Lending soldiers and horses to Shen Tang is equivalent to her paying to support these soldiers, which greatly reduces the pressure on logistics and food supply. Why not? I am afraid that I will miss out on good things if I am too slow to agree.

In this transaction, both parties felt that they had taken advantage.

——

Compared with ordinary people who are infirm, soldiers, especially those with martial spirit, are less likely to be infected by diseases.

With Wu Xian joining the team, the manpower that was originally stretched was suddenly abundant. So Shen Tang waved his hand and dispatched medical rescue teams of varying sizes to each county.

Although it is said to be a rescue force, in fact, few of them know medical skills. The only ones who know medical skills are army doctors who are good at surgery. These doctors have been trained by Dr. Dong over the years. Since the epidemic was discovered in Heyin area, Dr. Dong studied many ancient medical books and summarized a set of epidemic prevention and treatment procedures. Although there is a lack of medicinal materials, if the route of infection can be controlled, the person and the source of infection can be isolated, and then the sick people can be carefully and targetedly treated, the spread of the disease can be controlled...

This epidemic originated from flooding.

Water for common people must be boiled before it can be consumed.

The filth washed out by the flood and the corpses that were too late to be disposed of were collected and buried, and different areas were set up to separate the sick and non-sick people. Collect the medicinal materials that can be collected in the city, centrally manage and distribute them...

Similar scenes were staged in counties within the Chaoli Pass.

Somewhere, outside the city.

Two pale-skinned corpses hung at the city gate.

Occasionally, passers-by in a hurry would glance at her with disdain and quickly lower their heads to go about their own business. It hung there for three whole days. As the weather got hotter, I could still smell a bit of corpse odor when I got closer. Someone asked: "Who is hanging on the city?"

Pedestrian: "The shopkeeper of the largest drug store in the city."

The person who asked was horrified: "What did you commit?"

The passerby said: "He refused to buy medicinal materials."

"Kill him if he refuses? How pitiful he is to suffer such a misfortune!"

The passerby snorted disdainfully: "How pitiful? This man collected all the medicinal materials nearby and sold the medicine that usually cost fifty cents a pair for five hundred cents. Someone came to the door and asked for the medicine for a hundred cents, but he was beaten to death while pushing him. Mr. Shen was willing to pay double the price for the medicine, but he refused. He also said, "What poor guy dares to think of my medicine? Mr. Shen has never heard of it." So he was hanged."

Hearing this, the man sighed: "He really deserves to die!"

He added: "But it's not allowed to kill people and seize medicine..."

Due to the impact of the flood, there were fewer medicinal materials that were already lacking in the market - most of them had been looted by the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces under various pretexts, and not much was left. Things are rare and valuable, and when an epidemic breaks out, the common people who are infected can only choose to endure hardship.

If you can survive it, you will die. If you cannot survive it, you will die.

The remaining medicine was also looted by one force. I could have asked for medicine at a high price, but now I can't get it no matter how much money I have.

This Lord Shen is not a good bird either.

Unexpectedly, passers-by said: "Jun Shen is a very good man."

The medicinal materials collected are used on sick people. Anyone who is sick can be sent to the temporary medical center for treatment.

One spreads to ten, and ten spreads to a hundred.

Shen Tang is frantically harvesting his good reputation.

However, Shen Tang was not happy at the moment.

She was busy dealing with disaster relief and medical treatment these days, and with Wu Xian's interference, she simply forgot about her evil thoughts. She forgot, but the evil thoughts did not.

"What the hell - what are you doing?"

Shen Tang stayed up all night processing official documents, and fell asleep on the table without realizing it. When he woke up, he was facing the cold face of his evil thoughts, and the remaining sleepiness flew away.

"You have to respect martial ethics, I tell you -"

Shen Tang jumped up and down, widening the distance, fearing that evil intentions and lack of martial ethics would sneak up on her.

"If I wanted to sneak attack you, you would have been dead just now."

After hearing this, Shen Tang calmed down, scratched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile: "You are quite a good person, with a lot of martial virtue."

Also, if evil thoughts really gave rise to murderous intentions, Shen Tang would have woken up long ago. How could he sleep until dawn?

Shen Tang asked her: "What are you doing here this time?"

Evil thoughts said: "Let's settle this."

In fact, she didn't want to rush him, but if she didn't take the initiative, Shen Tang wouldn't even remember her existence...

As she spoke, she raised her hand and transformed into a Mother Sword.

Shen Tang raised his eyebrows and asked, "When will it start?"

Evil thoughts looked at the high-spirited young man himself, and finally there was a smile on his indifferent face: "Start now!"

After saying that, he rushed forward with his sword in hand.

Shen Tang walked around the pillar without saying a word.

A sword light struck, and the pillar was destroyed on the spot.

The remaining sword energy left a streak of blood on Shen Tang's neck. Although the pain was not obvious, the opponent did have murderous intent.

Shen Tang shouted: "You are serious!"

The finger of the sword with evil thoughts crossed the sword body, and a faint blush spread. She smiled half-heartedly: "I'm serious, please bear with it."

Chaoliguan welcomed the rising sun amidst Shen Tang's screams. When the soldiers raised their heads, they could see their lord chasing him.

"Hanzhang - Hanzhang - Hanzhang -"

"It's extremely urgent, Xun Hanzhang——"

One lord ran away in front, and the other lord chased after him with a sword. When he caught up, he picked up his sword and poked the front lord in the butt. This is where Shen Tang's screams came from.

"What happened?"

Everyone was confused by this scene.

Both are lords, and their auras are exactly the same.

At the end, someone murmured in a low voice: "Could it be that you are so bored that you create your own avatar to play with yourself?"

The soldiers at the bottom are weak and don't know how to break through the bottleneck to kill the evil thoughts. They only think that they are the embodiment of literary/military energy. And those who know this common sense never expect that the evil thoughts in the rumors are full of awe-inspiring and pure aura. How can they be as evil and violent as evil thoughts?

Insiders such as Wei Shou, Ning Yan and Cui Xiao were either sent out on business trips or were in other places within the pass.

The first one to "sniff" out the clues was Gong Xiqiu.

"Gong Xiqiu——"

Mama, who was being hunted, called his name from afar.

Gong Xiqiu's reaction hit people's hearts. He took a step back, crossed his arms over his chest and said, "Mama, you can only rely on yourself."

If you don't even have the courage to face up to the killing in your heart, and you need to rely on others to kill even the evil thoughts you create with your own hands, it will be difficult for you to make further progress in martial arts in the future. If you choose this path, you might as well imitate that coward Jiang Ao and hide in hiding.

Shen Tang shouted: "Then tell me where Hanzhang is!"

One hundred thousand fires, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry -

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao comes.

Xun Zhen was confused when she was told that her lord was looking for him. Before she could think about anything, she saw Shen Tang running wildly from a distance.

"Hanzhang——"

"Use your scribe's skills quickly!"

"Wiseness arises out of haste!"

Before Xun Zhen could figure out what was going on, she heard a similar roar from behind her lord, but with a more mature voice: "Shen Youli, you have this idea? Is this all you have?"

Shen Tang was proud: "You are stupid and you blame me for being smart?"

Xun Zhen's body is faster than his brain.

【Come back after all your money has been spent! 】

【Wise out of anxiety! 】

Don't blame him for reacting so quickly. This is the first time that the lord has asked him to spend his family. How could he not agree?

Finally I can see the comments, wow wow wow. It’s just that the previous comments seem to have been swallowed. They can be seen in the background, but they don’t pop up in the front desk.

PS: I have tenosynovitis, and my left wrist is experiencing stabbing pain. I will buy a plaster to apply it tomorrow.
