The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1552: Failed the Exam

Liangjie Mountain Juren Qu Tong and Jie Bingzhi led the Zhujiang Army to the military camp under the Liangjie City Wall. Qu Tong rarely spoke, while Jie Bingzhi patiently explained some matters.

"Your group of literary troops are lucky, because just a month ago, the demon world launched a massive charge, including some demon kings. You also know that according to the rules of the Ten Thousand Worlds, only the Great Demon King, Great Barbarian King or Great Confucian can be considered as kings, and ordinary demon kings and barbarian kings are not kings in the true sense. That time, the demon world sent more than a hundred great demon kings and great barbarian kings to attack the city, and the number of great Confucian scholars of the human race was seriously insufficient, so the loss was heavy."

"However, our human race has long prepared powerful mechanisms and light iron arrows and other items, and successfully repelled the demon kings. The number of kings in the demon world far exceeds that of the human race, but thirty-seven demon kings died in that battle alone. They will not use kings to attack the city in the short term."

The generals of the literary world were secretly amazed. There were only more than ten great Confucian scholars in the entire Confucius literary world, but the demon world could mobilize hundreds of them in one siege.

"This is good news and bad news. It means that your group of literary soldiers will no longer be able to enter the military merit book, and there will be no additional benefits."

"What benefits will be obtained if you enter the military merit book?" Fang Yun asked.

"For example, the top ten armies will be provided with whatever they want to eat by Liangjie Mountain, even if they eat big fish and meat every day. Of course, this is just basic treatment. What is really useful is that they can decide at any time whether to stay on the city wall to fight or go down the city wall to rest. Their weapons or mechanisms are the best in the entire Liangjie Mountain and even in all human beings. For example, the 'giant crossbow mechanism', 'light iron arrow' or 'holy page' or even literary treasures, the army that is not on the military merit book has no right to obtain them, and can only wait for the army to allocate them passively. But the top ten armies do not need the documents of the Ministry of War, and can directly take a certain amount of mechanisms or treasures from the warehouse to help in the battle."

"Those higher-ranked armies will eventually exchange their military merits for generous pensions to ensure that the families of the soldiers who died in battle can have better Life. The successive great scholars who guarded the Liangjie Mountain attached great importance to the pension. There were often great scholars who said that if the families of martyrs could not live a stable life, then there was no need for such a country to exist. However, most soldiers care about being able to protect their offspring. For any army that has ever ranked in the top three in the military merit book, one of the offspring of each soldier can obtain a recommendation letter from the Holy Academy. With the recommendation letter, they can directly study in the official academy of literature in their registered place of residence, and the possibility of passing the imperial examination is much greater than that of students studying in ordinary private schools. Liangjie Mountain is full of soldiers and everyone can study. Originally, there is no need for such a recommendation letter, but with the recommendation letter, their descendants will have a higher status. "

"And..."

Xie Bingzhi talked endlessly, and the generals of the Pearl River Army listened carefully.

While listening, Fang Yun looked at the two-hundred-story high city wall. Others could not feel it, but he could clearly feel that the vitality of the heaven and earth above was almost completely crazy, and even if he was dozens of miles away, he could feel that the wall of the boundary mountain was constantly shaking slightly.

It seemed that there was a force that obscured the battle on the city wall, so that not only could no sound be heard inside the city wall, but also no light from war poems or magic could be seen.

Only the busy elevators indicated that the war was still going on.

The majestic Jieshan city wall kept all dangers out, protecting the entire Liangjie Mountain and the entire Shengyuan Continent.

"That's the real battlefield!" Fang Yun stared at the towering city wall that seemed to be in the clouds.

On the fourth day of September, the ordinary soldiers of the Pearl River Army were still conducting high-intensity training, and all the scholars above the level of Xiucai went to a place full of mechanisms to conduct mechanism operation training.

The human race's mechanisms are a major help in defeating the monsters and barbarians. Generally speaking, they are controlled by the scholars of the Gong family. However, once the Gong family scholars are severely injured or killed, the soldiers nearby must operate the mechanisms as soon as possible.

Whether the mechanism is operated or not often affects the outcome of the battle.

There are all kinds of mechanisms, such as strong crossbow mechanism, crossbow mechanism, boiling oil mechanism, rolling stone mechanism, stone throwing mechanism, flame mechanism, etc. Fang Yun tried them personally, and some of them were very enjoyable to use.

For example, the flame mechanism, once used, is enough to turn the fifty feet in front into a sea of ​​fire. Anyone who touches it will die. Only the demon commander or more powerful demon barbarians can resist with blood armor.

While operating the mechanism, Fang Yun also learned about the recent situation of the demon world. It turned out that in these years, the demon barbarians have not been idle. They have been forcing the human race in the demon world to cooperate with the barbarians to build various siege equipment. The demon barbarians always have various ways to send the demon barbarians to the top of the city, and even try to destroy the human race's mechanism.

On the morning of September 6, Fang Yun had breakfast and rode a black dragon horse to the parade ground near the military camp.

The fourteen new armies of the literary world were neatly arranged there. In front of each army, there were many large flags, including national flags and military flags.

None of the fourteen armies set up their own heritage flags, because they could only be revealed after victory.

The fourteen square formations stood quietly in the parade ground, and the marshals of each army rode their horses and stopped in front of the army.

Fang Yun glanced at the other thirteen marshals, some of whom were indifferent, some ignored, and some nodded gently.

Among them, the marshal of the Fei Lian Army, one of the strongest armies of Zhao State, and the marshal of the Tianshui Army, one of the upper armies of Qin State, responded most enthusiastically. Fang Yun had also talked with the two these days, but the relationship was not deep.

Not long after, people from the Wenjie Division of the Ministry of War arrived. This time, there were more than fifty people, and two people who looked like Hanlin walked in the front.

Fang Yun frowned slightly, secretly sighing that the status of the literary warriors was really low.

The chief of the literary department is a university scholar, but he has not appeared so far. It has always been the left and right chiefs who communicate with the literary army, and the real responsible ones are the general managers of the candidates.

Pang Zhong, the right chief of the literary department who received Fang Yun that day, was also among them. He stood in front of the fourteen armies and said with thunderous words: "Today is the time for you to step on the wall of Jieshan. However, I have to say that you can only stand behind the wall and watch for three days, and you are not allowed to fight. Because... I am afraid that you will be wiped out in one battle."

Pang Zhong's words made many literary people angry, but no one dared to refute.

Pang Zhong held the official seal in his hand, looked at the time, and said: "Please wait a moment."

Everyone waited quietly, and Fang Yun looked in the direction of the military merit book. A few days ago, the Qin Dynasty's imperial guards were still in the 97th place, but only four days later, they were caught up by other armies.

So far, the military merit book has no ink on the literary army.

After a full hour, a large group of people came in from the gate of the parade ground and slowly approached.

The uniforms of these people were different, and they were divided into seven teams.

Fang Yun saw the uniforms of the Chu State first, and then recognized the uniforms of the other six countries.

Everyone suddenly realized that these should be the army of the literary world who withdrew from the wall of Jieshan City, and then their whole bodies were cold.

Confucius Wenjie sent out more than 5 million troops, but there were less than 50,000 in front of him! .
