Reborn Black Lotus can read minds

Hearing this, Ye Jin and Da Jiang were both shocked. How could the mountains become so transparent?

"Although Ye Jin is not smart, fortunately he is almighty. Da Shan is thoughtful and calm in his work." Xiao Xingyun glanced at Da Jiang, "What about you, what are your strengths?"

Dajiang suddenly became speechless.

He and Dashan joined the army together, and because they were about the same age, they were given the names of brothers.

Dajiang was stunned on the spot, Xiao Xingyun's eyes flashed, "Some of the 180 seven arrows shot by Huaqin Tower were extremely powerful and penetrated the wood in the building."

He turned sideways and said, "Although your accuracy is not high, your strength is excellent."

"I don't need a sharp archer," he paused, "I can still train one."

Dajiang instantly understood what he meant and knelt down, "Dajiang is willing to practice bow and arrow hard and go up mountains of swords and seas of fire for Master Xiao!"

Xiao Xingyun replied: "You don't have to do that kind of stupid thing."

The expression on Dajiang's face was stagnant, and he was a little embarrassed.

"Call Yang Xian." Xiao Xingyun stood up and straightened his posture, "Call Feng Ling and Shen Yuan as well."

Ye Jin said yes and walked down quickly.

When Yang Xian arrived, he felt uneasy.

It's so late, I wonder why the military master summoned him...

He took a sneak peek and saw Feng Ling and Shen Yuan standing beside Xiao Xingyun, one on each side.

Feng Chime's expression was so cold that Yang Xian trembled with fear after taking one look at it.

Looking at Shen Yuan again, although Shen Yuan doesn't smile, his face is round and his eyes are big. He looks quite innocent and cute. His harmless appearance makes people's panic less.

Xiao Xingyun knocked on the table dissatisfied, "Lieutenant Yang County."

Yang Xian immediately looked back,

Shivering, he knelt down and saluted: "See you, Lord Military Master."

What's going on with Yang Xian? His eyes are glued to Shen Yuan every time, and he can't even prick them off.

"My master called you here today to understand the process of your negotiation with the Huns." Ye Jin held the sword in his hand and said in a calm tone: "By the way, I want to understand the internal situation of this Huns army."

Yang Xian carefully observed Xiao Xingyun, lowered his head, and said: "There is a Huns named Sa Man who can speak the Central Plains dialect. He comes to negotiate with me every time... The Xiongnu royal family is quite chaotic and divided internally. They became the Northern Xiongnu and the Southern Xiongnu. The leader of this Xiongnu army was the sixth son of the Southern Xiongnu Chanyu, named Huyanmo. He was young and strong and dared to risk his life. However, because he was born from a prostitute, he had no status in the royal family and was only in charge. A small tribe in the area governed by the Southern Xiongnu."

"A few months ago, a heaven-sacrifice ceremony was held outside Longcheng." Xiao Xingyun picked up the case file on the table and looked at Yang Xian, "You went?"

Yang Xian felt suffocated.

This new military master is really no ordinary person, he can find out all this.

"Yes, yes, Lord Jun... After several days of rain in March, we finally had a rare sunny day. Huyanmo held a grand ceremony to worship the sky in Longcheng. , the Xiongnu Great Chanyu should have presided over the heaven-sacrifice ceremony in person, but the Chanyu did not go that day. Only Huyanmo led the tribal people to gather around. According to the custom of the Xiongnu, the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was solemn and sacred, and the Chanyu would hardly be absent. This day After the incident, there were rumors within the Xiongnu army that there were many conflicts between the Great Chanyu and Huyanmo..."

"What are you doing?" Xiao Xingyun asked.

Yang Xian is in a hurry

Explanation: "The military master does not know that the Huns' heaven-sacrifice ceremony has two main purposes. First, to give the Great Chanyu rationality and authority, and to make the tribe obey the Great Chanyu. Secondly, to pray for luxuriant pasture and prosperity of livestock. , a lot of hunting, less wind and snow, tribal unity, etc. As a symbol of their unity with the Central Plains, I must be there in person to complete this ceremony..."

Xiao Xingyun flipped through the case file in his hand and said, "Last month, Saman held a sacrificial ceremony in Taoxian County. Did you preside over it?"

Yang Xian trembled with fright and immediately knelt down: "Master Jun, I don't mean to make friends with the Xiongnu. This is Saman's request. He said that in the middle of every month, he would hold a sacrifice in Taoxian County to pray. The weather was favorable and the crops were growing well. In order to show the Xiongnu's sincerity, he also brought the Huns' beef, mutton, and tribute wine as food..."

Xiao Xingyun said: "How many people are coming?"

"Saman and the few soldiers he brought with him total no more than ten people."

Ye Jin was surprised: "It's coming in the middle of the month... It's already halfway through the month, isn't it coming soon?"

Yang Xian nodded: "Master Ye Jun is right. The kids are currently preparing to set up a stage and rehearse the show to welcome Saman's arrival..."

Ye Jin couldn't help but said: "Welcome?"

Yang Xian said helplessly: "There is nothing we can do... Every time Saman comes to Taoxian County in the middle of the month, he will inevitably humiliate us... Later, they intensified their demands on the women of Taoxian County. Dance for them, and if there is anyone you like, they will be there..."

Shen Yuan and Feng Ling both turned their heads away, not daring to listen.

go with.

Xiao Xingyun interrupted: "You can leave."

Yang Xian was a little surprised, so he just let him go?

In the past, when the imperial troops came to Taoxian County, the first thing they did was not to send them to search every household for food?

After so many days, why does this military master look like he has no such intention at all?

I don’t want the women who were given as gifts, I don’t want the free food... What I fear most is not that the military master wants anything, but that he doesn’t want anything.

After Yang Xian walked away, Xiao Xingyun glanced at Feng Chime and asked, "How is the training of the new recruits?"

As the captain of the guard, Feng Chime also has the responsibility of supervising the training of new recruits.

Feng Ling bowed respectfully and said, "Master Xiao, I still have some problems. In terms of weapon training, the accuracy and strength of bows and arrows are abysmal. When practicing swordsmanship, they are not agile enough. Most of the soldiers are clumsy. The sword... is even more fancy." , without any combat effectiveness. In terms of physical training, the average weight per person is less than 20 kilograms, and in terms of formation formation... a pot of porridge."

The concise report was particularly harsh.

Ye Jin gasped.

In this situation, it would be difficult to fight the Huns and the refugees, even the old, weak, sick and disabled in this city!

Shen Yuan also didn't expect that the situation would be so bad.

She thought of the letter she wrote to Tang Jianchun.

——The situation in the Northern Desert is chaotic, but Xiao Xingyun is confident.

Now it seems that Xiao Xingyun is very confident!

"The notice will go down and a gladiatorial battle will be held in five days. The unqualified soldiers will retreat to the second line and serve as laborers." Xiao Xingyun looked at the case file in his hand carefully.

Wind Chime was shocked when he heard this.

The main duties of the working soldiers are to dig tunnels, build forts, build roads, transport grain, and build basic

This is just for doing chores. If you do too many chores, you will basically be disabled when you go to the battlefield. Master Xiao's order is too ridiculous. Originally there were thousands of elite soldiers who could fight against the enemy, but now they have been reduced to such a few people. How can they fight against the Xiongnu?
