: Trivial skills and tricks
The old oil seller was once a general.
At that time, Donghu went south and attacked Chang'an for the first time. King Qin's troops from all walks of life gathered together, causing Donghu's army to return without success.
When the next year came, all the elite troops of Donghu came out to attack Chang'an for the second time, but King Qin's army did not have time to catch up.
It was he who led a force of 30,000 troops and fought bloody battles. After the Donghu army was driven back, there were still more than 10,000 people left.
Thirty thousand people can defeat the army, which is 20,000 fewer than the 50,000 forbidden troops at this time.
This is why the old oil seller was so disappointed.
Twenty years ago, the Han Dynasty was still able to organize troops, fight bravely against the enemy, and defend the capital.
Even during these twenty years of losing battles, the Han Dynasty moved the capital five times. They only waited for the city to be broken before escaping hastily. Not once did they give up and move the capital.
The Han Dynasty is not good, it is riddled with holes, otherwise it would not have reached the point of subjugation.
But anyone can say that big men can't do it, but they can't say that big men can't fight.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has gone through Guangwu, Zhaolie, and brought order to chaos twice, and it has lasted more than a thousand years.
From top to bottom, a big man can say that when he dies, he dies standing up.
Well, now, the king of the subjugated country has set a precedent and directly made a magic stick to fool people.
The people don't know whether this magic stick is real or fake, and you still don't know?
When the people on the street greeted him, the old oil seller was excited for a moment and thought about becoming a general again and fighting for the Han Dynasty for five years.
Now?
Forget it, it was right to resign and spend all your wealth back then. Being a Han general would be worse than selling oil!
The moment Chang'an City opened, it was a nightmare for the big man.
In the following decades, the land of the Central Plains was ravaged by war, leaving only nine empty houses and thousands of miles of bare land.
Now that Qiongzhou City has reopened, the big men are gone, and the nightmare should be over.
Guo Lianhua naturally didn't know what the people in the city thought. He only knew that with so much gold and silver, he would be happy in the future.
If the Great Khan of Donghu was as easy to deceive as the Emperor of Han, that would be great!
God Guo Lianhua muttered a curse, took out a piece of talismans, waved the magic sword in the air, and muttered:
"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast, the sun and the moon are waxing and waning, the stars and constellations are arranged, the cold comes and the summer comes, the autumn harvests and the winter stores!"
Then he stretched his magic sword forward and pointed directly at the Donghu Camp in the distance:
"Liu Ding Liujia, show up quickly!"
You rogues, look at me, and I look at you: Do we have the body protection of the Six Ding Liu Jia God?
Guo Lianhua gave them a hint in her eyes, enemy, you have been strengthened, go and deliver it!
If he seeks wealth in danger, he will definitely be caught if he runs away, or he will be shot into a sieve by the defenders on top of the city.
It's different to bring this group of "strengthened" rogues with you. They can confuse the audience and delay time.
Coupled with the previous requirement to evacuate the city gate defenders and gather the people, the safety of the escape was increased to the greatest extent.
When we returned to the city, there were so many idiot believers in the city that it would not be difficult to find a place to hide.
Hide for a few days, and when the Donghu people attack the city, you can come out freely, and maybe you can break the city!
Liu Ke on the top of the city was angry and no longer looked respectful as before:
"Dog Taoist priest, he doesn't know the slightest bit of magic. How could Liu Ding Liujia be summoned like this?!"
"You should be deceived and deceived!"
As he spoke, a chessboard was smashed down, hitting Guo Lianhua right in the head.
He walked directly out of the city gate, cut off Guo Lianhua's head, threw the body aside, and occupied the altar.
"How dare you show off your skills in front of a real dragon?!"
Yue Shaoqian, who was on the top of the city, felt anxious again. If the fake Taoist priest dies, he will die. Why do you want to be the real emperor?
With no choice but to dispatch the defenders, they strictly guarded the city gates.
He finally understood that the emperor's action should be to prevent riots from happening while defending the city.
In the hearts of the people in Qiongzhou City, there is no doubt about Guo Lianhua's status. Basically, the people will believe whatever the demon says.
If the Donghu people besiege the city and use Taoism to make some fuss about it and make the people riot, it will be a big trouble.
But if you kill Guo Lianhua, won't there be any trouble?
Essentially, it is the divine power that threatens the imperial power. When the imperial power is strong, one or two popular charlatans cannot make any trouble.
But now that foreign enemies are attacking and the Han Dynasty is in decline, it is easy to cause trouble as long as the people are inflamed.
This was the trouble left by the late emperor's use of magic sticks to stabilize people's hearts. At that time, drinking poison was the only way to quench thirst.
Now, simply killing a Guo Lianhua is of no use at all.
There will be the next Guo Lihua and Guo Furong. These people will definitely not be as influential as Guo Lianhua, but as long as there are signs, they will be equally difficult to deal with.
Xiao Yuanchang was also anxious, but he was not as anxious as Yue Shaoqian.
But I felt that the emperor's approach was too hasty.
Guo Lianhua's popularity has been deeply rooted since the epidemic that year, so killing her like this will only make the people dissatisfied.
However, Guo Lianhua was indeed an unstable factor when defending the city.
But killing is not the solution, it is better to use.
Just like during the epidemic, using the Taoist sect to stabilize people's hearts is the worst solution. They should be imprisoned and declare to the outside world that they respectfully ask the Heavenly Master to protect the great man.
It's just that people cannot be resurrected. This can be seen from the expressions of the people who followed.
I didn’t say anything for the time being, but I definitely felt uncomfortable. This was the Celestial Master Saint who usually gave them incense ash and talisman water!
Many people also held tight the talisman they had just spent a lot of money on. After Guo Tianshi died, the talisman was out of print!
“Something’s wrong”
Only the old oil seller had extraordinary eyesight. He looked through the crowd and saw Liu Ke's movements in front of the city gate.
"Treading the Gang and fighting on foot!"
I saw Liu Ke, who had occupied the altar, taking steps in a very orderly manner, which actually seemed a bit mysterious.
Then, he used this to list the magical weapons.
"incense burner!"
"Alchemy furnace!"
"Red candle!"
"Fa Ling!"
"Leimu!"
Liu Ke arranged the magic weapons in his hands and exerted force between his fingers.
"Start the confession!"
The tributes on the altar were replaced again, and all the tributes prepared by Guo Lianhua were swept to the ground by him.
Five fruits, six fasts, tea, wine, flowers, and incense are obviously carefully prepared.
Suddenly, he took a sharp breath.
"Concentrate your mind, have no distracting thoughts, and imagine that God Liu Ding Liujia will descend in front of the altar!"
Liu Ke slammed the thunderwood, turned the magic sword in his hand, and used the Liujia Talisman and the Six Eyes Talisman drawn with cinnabar to stick to the legal sword body, and ignited it with the fire of the red candle.
When the talisman was completely burned, he shouted loudly!
"God is coming!"
Coincidentally, a gust of wind blew by, causing his hair to flutter wildly, but the man in the wind remained motionless.
In an instant, the only sounds left in the city and outside were the howling of the wind and the ringing of the Dharma bells.
Clang, clang, clang, and it was like the wind blowing the armor of the god general in the sky.
The defenders in the city were stunned. Would our Majesty still do this?
It's impressive, and compared to the other two, it looks like it's more virtuous than the famous Celestial Master Guo Lianhua!
Donghu Tanma, who noticed the movement under the city further away, was also confused.
At the beginning, it was a Taoist priest dancing to the Great God.
To be continued...
