Chapter 46: Charming General
Afterwards, Song Yufei and Hou Tu discussed in the living room for half an hour. Hou Tu sent an order to gather all the warriors in the tribe together and divide them into two teams according to their number. They dug trenches on the west and south sides of the tribe and covered them.
Climb the branches as a trap. After that, dig out the river on the east side and divert the channel to form a defense. Because the ghost general plans a sneak attack, the number of enemies may not be very large, so most of the soldiers are concentrated on the north side to defend against the enemy.
Song Yufei also guided the soldiers to form the Crane Wing Formation, which was both offensive and defensive. Hou Tu led 100 people in the formation to command the offense and defense. Song Yufei and Chishui each led 50 people on the left and right wings, and the remaining soldiers were divided on the remaining three sides to defend against the enemy. However,
Beating the drums when someone has discovered something is a sign of trust; the drums sound slowly because the enemy is discovered; the drums sound urgently because support is needed.
When the tribesmen of the Hu tribe learned that they might encounter an enemy situation, they also joined in to help dig the trenches. It only took half a day to dig the trenches. After all the defenses were in place, Houtu gave an order for everyone to rest in preparation for the enemy attack.
At night, with the bright moon in the sky, Song Yufei sat alone on the roof, looking up at the vast starry sky, recalling her experiences and let out a long sigh with emotion.
"What's wrong? Can't you sleep?" Chishui appeared next to Song Yufei at some point and asked softly.
Song Yufei nodded and said, "Do you know what the era I live in is like?"
Chishui was stunned for a moment and shook his head. Song Yufei chuckled and said slowly: "After thousands of years, this land will undergo earth-shaking changes. There are many machines and tall buildings that cannot be described in simple words."
Chishui blinked his eyes in confusion and asked: "At that time, was there still a war?"
Song Yufei trembled, lowered her head, and said: "No matter what era there are wars, it's just that all wars are related to interests. Human beings will do many terrible things for their own interests. Many people will do it because of
Being involved for the interests of certain people, families were ruined..."
Chishui paused and asked: "Is it true that only war can solve the problem of the interests of these people? Is there no other way?"
Song Yufei was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
At this time, Hou Tu's voice sounded: "There are many things that are unavoidable. We must learn to face them. War cannot avoid killing. This is due to our nature. There is a balance in the universe. As long as the balance is not broken, there will be
Continuous progress and development..."
Chishui and Song Yufei turned around at the same time and saw Houtu standing behind them with his hands behind his back, looking up at the night sky. Song Yufei cupped his hands and said, "Master Houtu..."
Hou Tu stretched out his hand to interrupt him and continued: "Human beings... In fact, we are all created in the universe, but our intelligence is higher than other species. There are many other beings like you and me in this universe...
…Wisdom brings many benefits and gives us the ability to think, but it also brings disadvantages, namely selfishness and greed. Once these disadvantages are brought to the extreme, they will bring many unexpected disasters... However, we
There is another ability, and this ability has unlimited power!"
Chishui hurriedly asked: "Master Houtu, what kind of ability is this and can we master it?!"
Hou Tu smiled slightly and said: "All of us have this ability, but many people have been deprived of this ability by their disadvantages, but there are still more people who have this ability. This is -
like!"
Song Yufei's heart was beating fast, love! The emotion between people, the love of a father, the friendship of friends, the care for the weak, the fraternity of the wise...
Indeed, this is an extremely powerful force, powerful enough to make people give unconditionally without asking for anything in return.
Chishui tilted his head thoughtfully, knitted his eyebrows together, pouted his mouth and murmured: "I still don't quite understand..."
Hou Tu laughed and said, "Slowly you will understand."
After saying that, he looked at Song Yufei. Song Yufei hurriedly bowed and clasped his fists, but still turned his eyes to look at Chishui, who was full of doubts.
How could this small gesture be hidden from Hou Tu's eyes? Looking at Song Yufei, his eyes showed kindness and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
The sky had just become bright and the sun had not yet fully risen. On a small road twenty miles away from Hubu, five men dressed as hunters were walking slowly on a small road.
One hunter said: "This time I only managed to catch these wild animals with the help of my brothers. I really don't know how to thank you two."
A tall, thick-set man with a full beard said: "It's a small thing, no need to thank you. My two brothers happened to be passing by here and it was easy to do with a little help, hahahaha!"
Another person with a gray face said: "There is really no need to thank you. I just want to ask three of you, how far is it from the Tiger Department?"
The hunter said: "It's less than twenty miles away from Hubu. You two can go with us."
The gray-faced man smiled and said: "Then I'll help you three. However, before we go, my two brothers have to go to Beiyuan. We just don't know how to get there, so I hope you three can give us guidance."
Orion smiled and said: "It's easy to say, easy to say. There is a fork in the road not far ahead. It's still early, so I'll lead the way for you two."
The gray-faced man cupped his fists and said, "Thank you all!" After saying that, he saw that the bearded man was still in a daze and kicked him. The bearded man immediately understood and cupped his fists in thanks.
Beiyuan is in the east of Hubu, only seven or eight miles away from Hubu, and there is a hilly area between the two places.
An hour later, the five people had arrived near Beiyuan. Orion said: "You two, Beiyuan is not far ahead."
After speaking, he pointed to a forest in front of him.
The gray-faced man rolled his eyes and said: "Thank you, you three. To be honest, my two brothers came to Beiyuan for hunting. Thirty days ago, my two brothers' companions chased a herd of antelopes from the north.
Since my two brothers are the fastest, they asked me to take a detour to the North Plains to set a trap, and then drive the herd of antelopes into the North Plains, so that we can capture this herd of antelopes in one fell swoop... If the three of you are interested, you might as well join us.
Go there, and when the antelope enters the circle, there will definitely be three benefits."
The hunter had long hoped to hunt antelopes and then raise them in captivity. How could he not be tempted by the benefits before him at this time, but he still said politely: "You two have worked hard, how can we do this?
thing……"
The gray-faced man hurriedly interrupted and said: "Where, where, setting up a trap requires the efforts of three people. How can you say that you can sit down and eat? You can just come with my two brothers, no need to be polite."
The three hunters looked at each other, nodded, and said: "Then it's better to obey your orders than to be respectful. We will do our best!"
The five people slowly walked into the woods, and only heard human voices coming from the woods. The hunter frowned and thought, maybe someone else got there first. Looking at the gray-faced man, he saw his face was calm, and his eyes were happy, and he felt in his heart.
Don't worry, I just thought that this person had already made arrangements.
The five people walked through the woods, and the hunter suddenly discovered that there were hundreds of people in black standing densely in the clearing in the forest, each holding a weapon, gathering in one place to listen to the black man standing on a huge rock.
The man in clothes spoke and vaguely heard the words "raid...Tiger..." and other words. He was horrified and hurriedly stopped and said softly to the gray-faced man: "Hold on, you two. There are enemy troops gathering ahead. I'll wait.
Retreat quickly."
The gray-faced man narrowed his eyes and said, "How did you know it was the enemy?"
Orion said: "I just heard the man on the stone platform say that we are going to raid the Tiger Department. We must rush back to inform Mr. Houtu, you two...ah!"
A short knife suddenly pierced Orion's belly. The person holding the short knife was the gray-faced man. Orion's eyes were full of disbelief. He only heard the gray-faced man say: "Notice, I don't need to read it, just keep them all!"
"
The bearded man next to him also had a fierce look on his face. He grabbed another hunter and punched him in the lower abdomen. The hunter was bent down after being beaten. The bearded man went around behind him and grabbed him with both hands.
His head and neck twisted hard and cracked, and the hunter made no sound.
The third hunter immediately realized what the problem was. The two men in front of him must also be members of the enemy army. He abandoned his prey and turned around to run away.
The bearded man flew to catch up. The first hunter endured the severe pain in his abdomen, drew out his long knife with his backhand, and slashed in front of him. The gray-faced man drew the knife and jumped back, avoiding the slash. But this hunter
The purpose was not that, he shouted loudly, rushed in front of the bearded man, and blocked the bearded man's path with the knife horizontally.
The bearded man did not have a weapon in his hand, and he made several advances but was blocked by the Orion with his sword. At this moment, he only heard a "pop" sound, and a long whip whipped out, like a spiritual snake, and it instantly wrapped around this man.
The whip shook the Orion's neck, and the Orion's body flew high into the air. At this time, the long whip was withdrawn, and the Orion's body began to rotate involuntarily in the air. When he landed, he was already dead, with blood pouring out from his neck.
It's like having your throat cut with a sharp knife.
The third hunter also paid so much attention and just kept running. When he heard a soft cry from behind him, "Yin Sha Apparition", his eyes went dark and he was unable to see. Then blood spurted out from his mouth and nose, and his eyes
Only then did the stinging pain reach his brain. It turned out that his eyes had been exploded, and he fell to the ground and died without even letting out a scream.
At this time, a black shadow flashed and appeared next to his body. His long black hair was tied together, his figure was uneven, and he held a braided whip in his hand. He looked at the body on the ground coldly and said: "I want to report to Hou Tu
Well, that’s not possible~”
As soon as the gray-faced man and the bearded man saw each other, they immediately knelt down on one knee, clasped their hands and said in unison: "Master Charming General!"
