Battle for hegemony at the end of the Qin Dynasty in the military god system

Chapter 257 Revisiting Devil's Valley

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Li, who was going to Yangzhou City, rushed to the Liangshan Army Camp at Gukou.

As soon as he entered the tent, Wang Li knelt down on the ground, kowtowed slightly, and shouted, "My lord, Wang Li failed to complete his mission."

Sha Pojun stepped forward to help Wang Li and asked about the situation.It turned out that the general of Yangzhou city had changed after Wang Li was captured.Now the main guard of the city is a member of Zhao Gao's lineage. After discovering Wang Li, he immediately sent someone to imprison Wang Li.Later, it was still Wang Li's old department, who secretly released Wang Li from the city and told him not to come back again. The current Yang Zhou is no longer the previous Yang Zhou.The comrades-in-arms of the past were either aggrieved and defected to Zhao Gao, or were purged by Zhao Gao.

Meng Tian was very angry when he heard this, he drew out his saber and slashed it at the corner of the table, cursing: "A bunch of white-eyed wolves!"

Wang Li hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him, "Brothers were also forced to take refuge in Zhao Gao. I think if the general and I persuade them together, they will definitely turn their backs on their ways."

Meng Tian snorted coldly, and sat down at the table angrily, without saying a word.

In Sha Pojun's view, if it weren't for the two generals Meng Tian and Wang Li who were nostalgic, he would not have considered the defenders in Yangzhou City, because it was said that the main combat force was taken by Yan Jiu to suppress the rebellion. There must be some veterans in the city, and they are also very loyal to Meng Tian.It would be even better if they could be recruited.

"Okay, two generals, don't panic about this matter. Since the Huns can surround Yangzhou City for more than ten days, why can't we. When General Meng Tian comes forward to persuade him to surrender, the effect will definitely be much better." Sha Pojun Comfort the two who are worrying.

Meng Tian stood up, put the sword back into its sheath, and said calmly: "My lord is right, I will leave this matter to you!"

Sha Pojun looked at Meng Tian with a smile on his face, patted Meng Tian on the shoulder, and said: "Leave it to the general, I am naturally relieved, but before surrendering Yang Zhou, we still have something to do."

Meng Tian thought to himself, the Xiongnu are gone, now apart from persuading Yang Zhou to surrender, there is nothing else that needs to be resolved.

Seeing Meng Tian and Wang Li's puzzled expressions, Sha Pojun replied with a smile, "Devil's Valley!"

"What happened to Devil's Valley?" The two asked in unison.To be honest, they didn't want to go in this place, even during the day.

"I went in to make sure of two things. One was to find out if there were any living people in the valley, and the second was to see if the boulder I placed was still there." Having said that, the smile on Sha Pojun's face gradually disappeared. A look of deep worry appeared on that handsome face.

To say that Sha Pojun did these two things, Meng Tian and others took it for granted, and the results were predictable.There can be no living people in the valley, and of course the boulder is still there.But what is the worry on Sha Pojun's face? Does the lord think there will be changes in these two things?

Regardless of the doubts of Meng Tian and others, Sha Pojun ordered them to go down to prepare and gather at the mouth of the valley in a while.

This time, Sha Pojun specially ordered Yingbu to bring more than a hundred knights to follow him into the valley, and it was also convenient for him to search the valley.Sha Pojun has always thought that the Devil's Valley is a large formation, just like the large formation of resurrection of the dead he saw at the seaside that day, but he didn't know what the function of the large formation in the Devil's Valley was.He felt that thousands of people were driven into the valley yesterday, so there must be some changes in the valley at this time.

Not long after Sha Po's army arrived at Taniguchi, Ying Bu arrived with more than a hundred elite knights on horseback.At this time, Taniguchi still smelled of blood, although the Liangshan army cleaned up the battlefield yesterday and cremated all the corpses.

Yingbu got off his horse and cupped his hands, saying, "Yingbu sees the lord."

Sha Pojun, who was riding on the horse, replied with a smile: "General Yingbu, you don't need to be too polite. You can just do a military salute when you see me in the future." Instead of kneeling and saluting.But after all, the mainstream way of saluting is kneeling, so many generals in Liangshan chose to kneel and salute when they saw Sha Pojun, even Meng Tian was no exception.

Yingbo smiled innocently, gave a military salute, then touched his head and replied: "I know the Lord cares about us, but the military adviser said that courtesy cannot be broken, and we should bow down when we meet the Lord." present."

Sha Pojun waved his hands, pretending to be angry and said: "It seems that after going back, I have to talk to Kuai Che and the others." Sha Pojun was thinking in his heart that if people want to change, they must first change their thinking, although they can't do it. Everyone is equal, but respect for people should still be done.Saluting is just a formality, but it can explain many problems.

When Sha Pojun was contemplating the road to reform in Liangshan in the future, Meng Tian and Wang Li arrived late, and saw Sha Pojun, Yingbo and others were already guarding the valley entrance.The two confessed: "Please punish me, my lord. I will be punished for being late."

"There are so many crimes, so hurry up, let's go into the valley." Sha Pojun didn't care about the pleadings of the two, and urged them to follow him into the valley to investigate.

……

Sha Pojun who entered the valley again could clearly feel the difference in the valley. If the scenery of the valley before gave people an unreal feeling, then this time it gave Sha Pojun the feeling of entering a fairyland.The surrounding trees are tall and luxuriant, and the flowers and plants cover the entire valley.The previous time there were no living creatures such as birds, but this time there were small creatures such as birds, rabbits, and insects.

These changes made Sha Pojun, Meng Tian, ​​and Wang Li who had entered the valley gasp.It was so weird that they were not in the mood to enjoy the view, but rushed to the exit of the valley to check whether the boulder was still there.

It was the first time for Yingbu and others to enter this valley, and they were deeply attracted by the beauty of the valley.Yingbo said happily: "It would be even better if we could build a log cabin here."

Sha Pojun glared at Yingbo. Although he had expected that the formation would change, he did not expect that the change would be so great.It seems that this big formation has a big problem!

The group of people had different ideas, but fortunately, Sha Pojun's prestige was deeply rooted in everyone's hearts, so they did not change their goals along the way, and they came to the exit of the valley smoothly.

To Sha Pojun's horror, the boulder was gone.For the things produced by the system, Sha Pojun is still very confident. He doesn't think it was the Huns who dug up the boulder.Now that the boulder has disappeared, it can only show that it is a problem with this large formation.

Meng Tian tremblingly asked: "Master, shall we continue?"

Sha Pojun rode his horse through the exit, and found that the scene outside was the same as when he came last time.He said to Meng Tian and the others: "It's a weird valley, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we'd better return to the barracks as soon as possible."

Meng Tian cupped his hands and replied: "My lord is wise!"

"Don't flatter me at this time. Besides, I don't want to do that. Hurry up! This valley gives me a feeling of uneasiness." Sha Pojun urged Yingbu and others who were still nostalgic for the scenery, telling them not to Feel free to pick the flowers and plants in this valley.
