Follow the sound to the east and strike to the west, making a feint.

The main force of the army is approaching the North Desert camp.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour.

Near the end, someone suddenly said: "According to the past practice of the northwest countries, before dispatching the main force, it is necessary to offer sacrifices to the sky to reward the gods and comfort the heroic spirits here for protection..."

Shen Tang subconsciously looked at Chu Yao.

She didn't understand these customs, but Chu Yao should be familiar with them.

"Is there such a thing?"

Chu Yao nodded: "Yes."

The main purpose is to boost the morale of the three armies, which is similar to the process of sacrificing flags before going on an expedition. Over the past hundreds of years, although the northwest countries have had the upper hand and built Beijing temples in Tuocheng nine times in a row, it does not mean that the northwest countries have not made any efforts. It's a price.

The damage was particularly serious last time.

If Chu Yao hadn't accidentally joined, the losses would have doubled.

Over hundreds of years, countless heroic souls who could not return home have been buried here, especially Yaoriguan. The number of sleeping heroic souls here is dozens of times that of Chaoliguan. Over time, the northwest countries have left sacrifices to the gods to comfort the spirits. customs.

After all, war affects other people too.

It’s always good to establish a good relationship in advance.

Shen Tang nodded: "Okay, let's get someone ready."

The proposer asked again: "What about the sacrifice?"

Shen Tang said: "Sacrifice?"

Chu Yao said: "That's enough, no need to prepare anything special."

Seeing that the people at the bottom spontaneously arranged things properly, Shen Tang felt at ease and left the shopkeeper until nightfall. The camel city in this season is prone to wind, especially after dark, the night wind is stronger. The flags in the city are blowing and the bonfires are crazy. dance.

Temporarily built general point platform.

Dozens of bonfires surrounded it.

Shen Tang was familiar with all the processes, and her specialty was to inspire and inspire the troops. The troops who were about to go on the expedition shouted in unison, and their morale soared into the sky. The dark clouds in the sky broke away, revealing the bright white moon. The moonlight poured into each piece of fighting spirit. The high-spirited young faces also illuminated the faces of decadent and lifeless faces - nearly a hundred tied-up people were pushed out.

They are all men.

Body types range from tall to short, fat or thin, and hair colors vary.

The only thing they have in common is their luxurious and exquisite clothing - although the materials of the clothes have long been dirty and the original color cannot be seen, it is not difficult to see how expensive they were originally. Shen Tang was a little surprised by their appearance, but it was not good. Ask in public.

Vaguely, she guessed something.

These are the Northern Desert nobles imprisoned in the dungeon of Tuocheng, the original owners of the mansion in the center of Tuocheng. Every house is full of concubines and countless slaves. In recent years, they have been running rampant in Tuocheng, secretly extorting money. Merchants who come here to do business.

To put it bluntly, it is "protection fee".

In addition to "protection money", he also embezzled a lot of other things.

Tuocheng was controlled by Shen Tang's soldiers and horses. All these people had their homes confiscated and were thrown into dungeons. When the people of Tuocheng found out, they all clapped their hands and cheered. Among them were many merchants from the Northern Desert.

This shows how disreputable these people are among the people.

These businessmen understand the fate of these people better than Shen Tang.

They are the sacrifices that go out to sacrifice the flag.

At the same time, it is also the most basic level of Jingguan.

Although this battle is between the Kang State and the Northern Desert soldiers and horses, the people are more optimistic about the Kang State. Who has allowed the Northern Desert to lose for so many years? Some people are even secretly talking about whether there will be a tenth Beijing Viewing. If it can Built, the momentum of the Northern Desert has not been driven into the abyss?

"All kneel down!"

The soldier escorting these people raised his foot and kicked the person's leg.

Thump, thump, thump——

The soldiers who were blushing with excitement all fell silent.

The only sounds left in the air were the night wind blowing the flags and the bonfire, and the sound of the knee colliding with the ground was particularly clear at this moment.

Some people just groaned, while more people were horrified, kowtowed and begged for mercy, trying to use the wealth they had accumulated over generations and the beauties they had worked so hard to collect in exchange for their own lives. Some even hoped that their sons and daughters could be beheaded on their behalf, just to keep themselves alive. .

The soldiers did not stuff their mouths with anything.

Let them show their ugly face.

Seeing that bribery was not enough and begging for mercy was not enough, she was willing to exchange information about the Northern Desert for a chance of survival. At this moment, Shen Tang's expression finally changed, and she said: "Oh? What do you know?"

"I, I know, I know everything!" The speaker's hands were tied behind his back and he could not crawl. He could only kneel down in desperation. He looked eager, fearing that the opportunity would be snatched away.

"I, I know better."

"My Aweng is..."

"Who is your Aweng? My Azu is..."

He was indeed someone who could occupy a prominent position in Tuocheng. Everyone had some background. Shen Tang's eyes fell on the first person.

She said: "Speak first."

The man was humble and frightened.

His voice was hoarse, and his speech was difficult and vague. Kang Guo's elegant speech was not very good, and it was difficult for outsiders to listen. Shen Tang asked people to come closer and listen carefully. His throat rolled up, and he spat at the person who came up to him. He had bloody phlegm and laughed wildly: "Ahaha!"

The visitor reacted quickly, but his saliva got on his clothes.

"you--"

The man's voice was hoarse, as if he had used the strength he had gained from burning his life, and shouted out his last words: "Destiny is in the north, and our clan will win!"

Did Shiitake ever say that she lost weight because her physical examination revealed severe fatty liver and high blood lipids, which were quite dangerous? Before she made up her mind to lose weight, Shiigu had such heart palpitations that night that her eyesight turned black, and she thought she couldn't survive it.

To put it bluntly, I weighed around 110 before I went to college. After I started working in the industry in my freshman year, my life was chaotic, coupled with my relative financial freedom (in fact, the royalties were very low, but for someone who once only had a pocket money of 50 a week, it was really (a lot of money, but I can still fully control it), I became increasingly addicted to carbonated drinks, desserts and various fried takeaways, which were heavy in oil, salt and calories, and my weight increased. I gained weight and stayed at home after graduation, too lazy to move.

From the time I entered the industry as a freshman to now, my weight has been around 150. This year after my confinement, it reached a peak of 65, and dropped back to 9 before I started losing weight.

I lost weight ruthlessly in order to survive, not because some people spread rumors about serving in the US military. Have you ever seen someone who served in the US military and failed for ten years?

Moreover, I also found a personal trainer to lose weight, and I conscientiously changed my diet and exercised. I worked hard, rain or shine, and I still have four days to go until I am three months old. During this period, I did not lose weight in extreme ways to please anyone.
