Chapter 453 If You Don't Understand, I Can Teach You
With a bitter smile, Lan Shuang lowered her head and fell into silence.
It's not easy to kill more monsters of the Blood Lotus Sect, not to mention the huge power of the Blood Lotus Sect, what can Lan Shuang only do with a martial artist realm?
To put it bluntly, even if a member of the Blood Lotus Cult stood up and let Lan Shuang kill him, how much could he kill until he was exhausted?
Understanding the helplessness in Lan Shuang's heart, Bai Yang thought for a moment, narrowed his eyes and said, "No matter how high a person's cultivation level is, his strength is always limited. Now there is an opportunity..."
Lan Shuang's heart skipped a beat, and she raised her head for some unknown reason.
Bai Yang was about to continue talking when footsteps sounded outside the mourning hall.
Turning around to look, there was a young man in white walking quickly. He looked about ten or twenty years old, a little chubby, but not ugly, with a calm posture.
A few black-clothed guards followed the chubby young man, looking around vigilantly.
When this person arrived, the servant did not report his name, obviously he was not acquainted with the Lan family.
I don't know how to call "a guest is here", so the servants can only remind him like this.
The other party must have some background, Lan Qingfeng got up and walked over and asked in doubt: "I don't know what to call this young master? My Lan family has encountered a catastrophe. If there are other things, please come back another day."
The other party bowed his hands very politely and said: "Xia Tang Xu, under the order of the county lord, came to temporarily take the post of guard of Deyang Town."
Lan Qingfeng frowned slightly, and said with a wry smile: "It turned out to be the guardian, I'm disrespectful, but, my Lan family is now... poorly entertained, please forgive me"
Why isn't this new town guard here to manage the mess in Deyang Town?
"Don't say that. It's my fault to bother you. Uncle Lan is the mainstay of Deyang Town. There are still many places to rely on in the future. Although I am new to the Lan family, I have heard about it and express my deep sympathy. Uncle Lan , mourning and change," Tang Xu said with a face of understanding.
This is the new guard? The county lord moved fast enough.
Bai Yang watched from the side and didn't speak. He could tell that this Tang Xu was not a martial arts practitioner, and his physique was not much better than that of ordinary people like him. When it comes to fists, he is almost a scumbag in this world.
He secretly observed the other party with his thoughts, and he was not a member of the Blood Lotus Sect pretending to be, so Bai Yang was relieved.
I'm afraid that after killing a group of people from the Blood Lotus Sect, another group will come again endlessly.
Tang Xu exchanged greetings with Lan Qingfeng, took the three sticks of incense from the servants, and he also lit the incense in a proper manner, then went straight to Baiyang.
With raised eyebrows, Bai Yang didn't speak.
Coming after me?
This guy came here in a hurry as soon as he came to Deyang Town. If he said that he came here to revoke it, he wouldn't believe it. Moreover, given the current situation of the Lan family, it is impossible for him to discuss things with the Lan family...
"You think this is Young Master Bai?" Tang Xu cupped his hands two meters away from Baiyang.
"I'm Bai Yang." Bai Yang nodded, as if you were speaking directly.
Glancing left and right, Tang Xu said in a low voice, "Young Master Bai, can you take a step to speak?"
"Okay," Bai Yang replied, glanced at the others to signal to be calm, and walked out of the mourning hall to a corner of the courtyard outside. What's the matter with me?"
"Young Master Bai, please don't do this. You can call me Tang Xu, Xiao Tang, or Brother Tang. I don't dare to call myself a guardian in front of Young Master Bai." Tang Xu smiled wryly.
Being able to come to Deyang Town to temporarily act as the guard, this guy is very shrewd, of course he knows some of Bai Yang's deeds, he is very well-behaved.
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Tang, why is Brother Tang looking for me?" Bai Yang asked helplessly.
Not entangled in this matter, Tang Xu glanced left and right, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Bai Yang, saying, "Young Master Bai, here is a letter written by the county lord, you will know it after reading it."
Confused, Bai Yang took the letter and opened it for a quick glance in front of Tang Xu.
The general meaning of the letter is that this Tang Xu is a nephew of the county lord, who came to Deyang Town to act as a temporary guard, and hoped that Bai Yang would take care of him if he could.
After reading it over and over twice, Bai Yang was speechless, then looked at Tang Xu with a smile and said, "I understand what the county lord means, if you can help me, just ask if you can help me."
What is within one's power? To put it bluntly, it depends on the mood...
Tang Xu obviously knew that this was just Bai Yang's polite words, so he didn't point it out. He pondered for a moment and said, "Young Master Bai, I just came to Deyang Town and I have something urgent to deal with, but the current situation requires the help of Young Master Bai."
With a sudden change in his mind, Bai Yang understood immediately, and asked, "Is it about the establishment of a ten thousand armed men in Deyang Town?"
"That's right, the world is in chaos today. This order was issued from the capital. All localities need to recruit manpower to deal with the current situation. I understand that the Lan family and the Niu family are the largest families in Deyang Town. If they didn't take the lead , this order is difficult to carry out, but now that the Lan family and the Niu family are like this, it is difficult for me to pass this order down, so..."
"I understand what you mean, but you have also seen the current situation, what should I say?" Bai Yang said speechlessly.
"In view of the situation of the Lan family and the Niu family, I can extend the time to five days. After five days, I will see their actions no matter what," Tang Xu said euphemistically.
This probably depends on Bai Yang's face, if not, he can use the righteousness of the dynasty to directly order the Lan family and the Niu family to act.
"Okay, I'll tell them." After pondering for a moment, Bai Yang nodded and said, this cannot be avoided.
Tang Xu heaved a sigh of relief. He obviously knew Bai Yang's weight. If Bai Yang got in the way, it would be impossible, so he said gratefully, "Then thank you, Young Master Bai."
With a heartbeat, Bai Yang asked Tang Xu: "Brother Tang, can you tell me, when a team of ten thousand people is formed, will they go to other places or stay in Deyang Town? Who will these people obey in the end?"
"This...Since Young Master Bai asked, there is nothing I can't say. When these people are formed, they will go to the county seat as soon as possible to wait for orders. I don't know who will direct them in the end. In general, their whereabouts Nothing more than three directions"
"First, to go to various places to suppress the blood lotus sect monsters who made trouble. Second, to fight against the rebels. Third, to suppress those bandits who took the opportunity to make trouble. The third destination is the most likely, after all, they did not After training, it is impossible to fight the rebels and the well-organized Blood Lotus Cult"
Tang Xu said bluntly.
Bai Yang nodded, got it, and the specific whereabouts will probably have to be arranged in detail at that time.
Then Tang Xu added: "Actually, when I set off from the county seat, most of the dozens of towns around Qingmu County had already formed their manpower and rushed to the county seat. It’s because I haven’t seen that kind of picture, the forest of swords and swords is like a torrent, shocking the soul.”
"Oh, it's just, how many people can return to their hometown alive in the end?" Bai Yi smiled wryly.
The world is in chaos, and the people at the bottom suffer...
Why can't he figure it out, in fact, these armed men formed by the people are actually cannon fodder in nature!
Want these mobs to pacify the world?
Give me a break.
At the same time, Bai Yang was also very shocked. A town needs to form an armed force of ten thousand people, and a county has dozens of towns under its jurisdiction. Adding the county seat itself, that's hundreds of thousands of troops, let's say it's half a million. , There are dozens of counties under one county seat, how many people will be gathered?
millions!
What about a state capital? tens of millions!
The whole dynasty?
...!
It’s not that I don’t know, but it’s a shock. Is it true that the whole people are soldiers?
Only this fantasy world where everyone loves martial arts can have such a situation. Because of practicing martial arts, everyone is not afraid of death, and they gather together to form a large army!
Of course, the same sentence, this kind of gathered 'army' is actually just a mob, and it cannot be compared with the regular army.
"Young Master Bai, you can help talk about the Lan family and the Niu family. I will go in person for other matters, so I will take my leave first." Finally Tang Xu looked at Bai Yang and said.
"Well, it's important." Bai Yang nodded.
Seeing Tang Xu's leaving back, Bai Yang's body couldn't help shaking.
This Chen Dynasty, with its boundless territory, is likely to become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in the future. When hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions of people gather to fight together in a torrent, what a shocking scene it is?
In that terrifying confrontation, any warrior warrior or even the grand master might be crushed into scum!
"Young Master Bai, are you okay?"
After Tang Xu left, Lan Qingfeng and Lanshuang came over to look at the pensive Bai Yang and asked worriedly, thinking that something had happened to Bai Yang.
"It's okay." Bai Yang shook his head and said.
"Then why is Young Master Bai frowning?" Lan Qingfeng asked.
Looking at Lan Qingfeng, Bai Yang thought for a while and said, "Uncle Lan, the dynasty's conscription order is still to be enforced."
"I expected this a long time ago. The order of the dynasty cannot be disobeyed, but right now, my Lan family..." Lan Qingfeng smiled wryly.
"Five days, Tang Xu said that he could give five days, and after five days, no matter what, he had to see someone," Bai Yang said honestly.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Lan Qingfeng said: "Five days are enough. Although it is in a hurry, it is enough for my wife and children to be buried."
"Yeah." Bai Yang nodded, then looked at Lan Shuang, his eyes flickered and said, "Brother Lan, if you want to kill the demon of the Blood Lotus Sect, now is your chance!"
Lan Shuang was not stupid, her eyes squinted with flames of hatred and said: "Young Master, what do you mean...?"
"That's right, taking advantage of this moment when all the people are soldiers is the easiest time to make some achievements. Once you perform outstandingly in the subsequent battles, it is not impossible to gain power. Once you have power in your hands, Brother Lan, you are afraid Can't you kill the blood lotus sect monster?" Bai Yang narrowed his eyes and said.
"But, my skills are low..." Lan Shuang said with a wry smile.
"A person with a high position is the key to mastering the overall situation. No matter how strong a person is, how many people can he kill? It is easiest to gain power in the military, especially in the current troubled times. As long as Brother Lan shows his due military talent, he can grasp the power." Just around the corner!" Bai Yang cheered him up.
"But I don't know anything about military affairs." Lan Shuang smiled wryly again.
Bai Yang smiled and said, "Learn if you don't know what you don't understand, and besides, don't you still have me?"
"You? Could it be that Young Master Bai wants to join the army?" Lan Shuang was stunned.
Sweating a lot, Bai Yang shook his head, grinned and said, "No, what I mean is that if you don't understand military affairs, I can teach you. I have a volume of Sun Tzu's Art of War here, which is probably enough for you to make a difference. If not, there is also Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are thirty-six tricks... Hehe, maybe you will have the hope of being a Marshal of the soldiers and horses of the Chen Dynasty in the future! The premise is that you don't die in the next march and battle..."
(This is also the job of the porter, um, yes...)
