The Fruit of Surgery

"Damn it, damn it."

The screams of the Khitans around him made Kugo furious. He was about to order his men to hold their ground, but at this moment, he felt extremely dangerous. The next moment, Kugo rolled to the right side of the horse. At this moment, a sharp arrow pierced the horse under him. If he had reacted a little bit, the arrow would not have pierced the horse, but him.

"Charge, kill them."

Kugo, who felt the danger, originally wanted his men to retreat, but now he just wanted his men to cover his escape. After issuing the order, he immediately hid his figure among the crowd to avoid being targeted by arrows.

At first, some people obeyed Kugo's order and rushed out of the smoke, but soon more screams were heard.

"Brother Ku, accept your fate."

Accompanied by a roar that resounded throughout the entire Liangcheng, a huge blue blade light fell from the sky, covering Brother Ku who was trying to go out of the city. Before the blade light landed, the temperature around him plummeted, and blue ice crystals appeared in many places on the ground.

Looking at the people around him, their bodies began to freeze under the cover of the blade light. Brother Ku knew that if he couldn't block this knife, his result would not be much better than those around him. In an instant, Brother Ku burst out with powerful true energy, and the double axes in his hands chopped towards the blade light in the sky.

Boom.

The collision of the blade light and the axe made the ground of the entire street shake several times. The powerful true energy riot directly blew away all the Khitan people around Brother Ku. As for the Khitan, he knelt on one knee with his right leg and sank deep into the ground. Only one of the double axes in his hand was still in his hand, and the other was covered with ice crystals and fell not far in front of him.

How could the hastily reacting Kuge resist Kou Zhong's long-prepared sword?

"Protect the prince."

Seeing Kuge in danger, many Khitans immediately roared and drove their horses to rush towards Kou Zhong. Kuge was the eldest son of a chieftain of the Khitan clan. Because of the influence of the Central Plains culture, many ethnic groups outside the Great Wall now call themselves princes, such as princes.

Of course, the identity of the prince Kuge cannot be compared with that of the prince Fuqian, after all, the current strength of the two sides is very different.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh.

The Khitan knights who rushed towards Shen Fei were shot through the body by continuous arrows before they approached Kou Zhong. On the third-floor roof of the restaurant where Kou Zhong and the other two had been drinking, Xu Ziling held a strong bow and kept taking arrows from the quiver on the side.

In front of Xu Ziling's right, about five rooms away, Du Fuwei also held a bow and arrow and kept harvesting the lives of the Khitans.

Bows and arrows are powerful weapons on the battlefield. This is the reason why Kou Zhong wants to fight against the East Sea Alliance with three people. In the original book, Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Ba Fenghan encountered Jie Li's siege outside the Great Wall. They relied on the three unique strong bows in their hands to achieve such a great record.

Although Shuanglong does not have such a strong bow now, there are many ordinary strong bows. With Shuanglong's strength, even ordinary strong bows in his hands can exert terrible power. As for the knowledge of bows and arrows, he learned it from Shen Fei when he was in Luoyang.

One of the six arts of Confucianism is shooting. Occasionally, when he is free, Shen Fei will practice shooting, after all, he has the Kaiyuan Chasing Moon Bow.

Both sides have very good talents. Even if they just practice for a few days, they are already better than some archers who have practiced hard for more than ten years.

"Dang."

Facing the kneeling Kuge, Kou Zhong did not say any nonsense, and swung the Moon in the Well in his hand again. Kou Zhong had already known what the East Sea Alliance had done from Ren Meimei, so he was naturally merciless. In the crisis of life and death, Kuge did not care about the trembling of his body and the chaos of his internal Qi, and barely blocked Kou Zhong's knife with the axe in his hand.

The powerful force from Kou Zhong's knife made Kuge's hand, which was already trembling due to the cold, unable to hold the axe in his palm. The axe flew with a sound, and then Kuge saw a flash of knife light. In confusion, Kuge seemed to see his own body, and then he fell into darkness completely, and his head was beheaded by Kou Zhong's knife.

"Revenge for the prince."

After experiencing the initial chaos of black smoke, the smoke had dissipated a lot at this time. After seeing Kuge being killed, many of the remaining Khitans immediately turned pale. Kuge was of extraordinary status. If he died here, the Khitans present would undoubtedly be held accountable after returning, and if he was not careful, it would even implicate his family.

In a frenzy, many Khitans immediately bent their bows and drew their arrows, wanting to kill Kou Zhong to avenge Kugo, but at this time Kou Zhong had already rushed into an empty room on the side of the street, making all the arrows miss.

"Next, it's time for the guerrilla warfare that Brother Shen mentioned."

After the black smoke dissipated, Shuanglong and Du Fuwei immediately hid, and from time to time used bows and arrows to harass the Khitans in the city.

Kugo brought a total of 500 people this time. In addition to leaving 100 people outside the city for guard, the other 400 people all entered Liangcheng.

These are 400 people. Even if Shuanglong is powerful now, plus Du Fuwei, it is impossible to kill these 400 people head-on. They can only use harassment tactics to slowly clean up.

After losing Kugo, the remaining Khitans had no one to lead them, and soon they began to fight internally. The reason was that the Khitans began to target the Central Plains scum who led the team, thinking that they had betrayed them. As they talked, the two sides started fighting.

The local internal strife, coupled with the fact that they were in Liangcheng, there was no way to play the advantages of cavalry. Under the leadership of Kou Zhong and the other three, and with the help of Ren Meimei and other members of the Pengliang Society, the four hundred people who entered the city were slowly strangled to death.

These were the Khitans in the city. As for the one hundred people outside the city, they became confused after discovering that the suspension bridge was raised. Although Liangcheng was not a big city, it had moats and city walls. It was not something that the East Sea League could capture without siege equipment.

The reason why Liangcheng was so afraid of the East Sea League before was mainly because there was no leader. When the ghost claw Nie Jing was still alive, the Pengliang Society would not flee from the East Sea League.

"Ku Ge is dead. The East Sea Alliance will not dare to attack here in the short term. You should stabilize the order here first. Someone will come to take over here soon."

After almost completely annihilating the members of the East Sea Alliance who came to attack this time, Kou Zhong immediately began to tell Ren Meimei what to do next, and then left Liangcheng with gratitude from Peng Lianghui and others.

"It seems that we can only wait and completely eradicate the Luoma Gang and the East Sea Alliance later."

Although the East Sea Alliance suffered heavy losses this time, it will not be completely exterminated. It lost the Khitans, and other Koreans, Tubo people, etc., not to mention those scum gangs that took advantage of the chaos in the world to cooperate with the East Sea Alliance.

Even though the annihilation of Ku Ge was very smooth this time, Kou Zhong was not so arrogant that he could break into the opponent's gang station alone and kill them. The reason why Ku Ge was completely wiped out this time was that he was too arrogant.

"Sure enough, you are Shuanglong."

Shen Fei was not surprised that Shuanglong persuaded Du Fuwei to surrender. For Shuanglong's sake, he gave Du Fuwei the highest treatment. He personally received him and gave him a good position. Of course, there was no red book, iron certificate, or golden medal of immunity from death.

After that, the follow-up handling of the Jianghuai Army was handed over to Shen Luoyan. The discipline of the Jianghuai Army was a big problem and it must be dealt with strictly.

"Donghai League, Luoma Gang, no problem, leave it to you to deal with."

Du Fuwei's matter was very simple. After the solution, Kou Zhong immediately talked about the problem of the Donghai League, which made Shen Fei's face cold. Then he asked Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to take his personal guards and drive the mechanical Suzaku to deal with them.

"No one came to rob the execution ground. Fan Qinghui is really cold and ruthless."

When Shuanglong and his men took people to deal with the Donghai League and Luoma Gang, Luoyang, after large-scale propaganda and trials, also began to execute the four Dharma protectors of the Pure Mind Zen Sect. Originally, Shen Fei thought that facing this situation, Fan Qinghui would be more or less tempted, so he made some arrangements around the execution ground, but there was no accident.

The four Dharma protectors were not executed together, but one by one. As for Luo Kong, he was undoubtedly the last one to be executed.

At the same time, the arrangement of Master Fahai of the White Horse Temple also began to ferment, that is, what is a real Buddhist disciple? He said that under the greed of some scums, a large number of people with ulterior motives have mixed into Buddhism. People who can't even read Buddhist scriptures are not Buddhist disciples. Thus, the term "ordination certificate" was officially introduced.

At the same time, Shen Fei officially took out the Heshi Bi and used it as a jade seal. As for where the Heshi Bi came from, it was naturally not obtained from the Jingnian Zen Sect. Under the testimony of Master Fahai, Cihang Jingzhai, Jingnian Zen Temple and Ning Daoqi did not have the real Heshi Bi at all. Their so-called selection of the emperor on behalf of the heaven was deliberately using a fake Heshi Bi to fool people.

As for the real Heshi Bi, it was found in an ancient tomb not long ago, and was immediately presented to the king of Shen Tang. As a result, Shen Fei's prestige immediately increased, and at the same time, the prestige of Buddhism fell again.

As for the truth of the Heshi Bi, the common people don't care at all. Whoever can make their lives better, they will naturally support him. If the lower-class people are living in poverty, let alone one Heshi Bi, even if there are 180 Heshi Bi, it will be useless.

"How dare he?"

Looking at the latest rules and regulations about Buddhist disciples in the latest Datang Daily, Fan Qinghui, who was in Yuhe Temple in Chang'an, couldn't help but spit out a large pool of blood.

The latest Buddhist rules and regulations directly made Buddhism lose its transcendent status. It must be placed under official management, must pay taxes, and has no right to accept fixed assets such as land offered by believers. Therefore, Buddha statues can only be clay sculptures or stone sculptures, and bronze, gold and other precious objects cannot be used. Shen Fei took the modern religious management law and combined it with the current situation of the Shuanglong world. .

Fan Qinghui naturally couldn't accept this system, plus Fahai's backstab.

But even if he couldn't accept it, it was reality.

"Mohist mechanical beast, how do you think we should deal with it?"

In the Qin Palace in Chang'an City, Li Shimin shared the information about Shen Tang's mechanical beast with his subordinates with a serious face, asking them to think about how to solve the problem of mechanical beasts.

After the Mohist mechanical beast appeared in the world, Li Shimin immediately understood that Li Tang was in big trouble. Once the mechanical beast could be used on a large scale, the current war situation could be said to have completely changed.

After seeing the information about the mechanical beasts, Li Shimin was thinking about how to deal with it, but in the end, he had no way to deal with it. If it was a small number of mechanical beasts, it would be fine, but if they could be equipped in large quantities in the army, even his carefully crafted black armor soldiers would be vulnerable to mechanical beasts.

"So that's how it is."

Xu Shiji looked at the information about the mechanical beasts in his hand and immediately frowned. At the same time, he understood why Shen Luoyan chose Shen Tang. If he had known this at the beginning, he would probably not have chosen Li Tang.

As a military expert, Xu Shiji knew very well what role the mechanical white tiger and mechanical red bird could play in the war.

Li Jing frowned like Xu Shiji. What Xu Shiji could see, he could naturally see.

Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin, who were sitting at the edge, saw the mechanical beasts. Like Xu Shiji, they figured out one thing, that is, why Shen Luoyan was not interested in recruiting them.

When Shen Luoyan was in the Wagang Army, he promised a lot of conditions to recruit Qin Shubao, and even made a bet. However, when he was in Shen Tang, he only mentioned it to Qin Shubao, and after being rejected, he never mentioned it again. This is not normal at all. Qin Shubao didn't care about this before. Now he understands that Shen Luoyan doesn't care whether he joins Shen Tang. If you don't want to, there are plenty of people who are willing.

"Li Jing, what do you think we should do?" Li Shimin saw that the members of the Tiance Mansion below didn't speak for a long time, and he couldn't help but turn his eyes to Li Jing.

"For now, it's best to find out the specific data of these mechanical beasts first, and see if we can find a way to get some samples." Li Jing said immediately after a moment of silence.

Li Jing's words made Li Shimin nod gently. He thought so too, and even thought of several strategies in his mind, but in the end, Li Shimin gave up, fearing that he would make a mistake of losing both the lady and the army.

Li Jing and Shuanglong have a good relationship. Li Shimin wanted to take advantage of this relationship, but considering that if Li Jing left and never came back, it would be a loss of both the wife and the army.

The Song clan plus the Mo family mechanical beasts, in this era of war and no loyalty, Li Shimin and even the people in the Tiance Mansion under his command did not trust them too much.

It was also thanks to the growing strength of Shen Fei that Li Shimin was originally deeply afraid of Li Yuan, but as the threat of Shen Tang increased, Li Yuan had to rely on this son with outstanding military achievements.

"Everyone will consider it." Seeing that after Li Jing spoke, the others still had no intention of speaking, Li Shimin did not continue to ask. After the people in the Tiance Mansion left, Li Shimin showed a smug smile at the corner of his mouth.

Although Shen Tang is now in his heyday, one of his fatal weaknesses was discovered by him.

In Guanjun City, Xu Xingzhi, who had just finished his work today, was about to go back to rest. As soon as he opened the door of the room, he suddenly found himself in a sword beam. The boundless sword beam completely blocked Xu Xingzhi's vision.

Then the sword beams in the sky suddenly disappeared, and only a pitch-black long sword appeared silently in front of Xu Xingzhi's forehead, and it seemed that it was about to pierce his forehead. But at this moment, a golden light suddenly appeared around Xu Xingzhi's body.
