Zengtou City was in a mess in the early morning. The broken village walls, collapsed houses and tents, scattered weapons and corpses all told of the fierce battle last night. The sunlight shone through the clouds onto the battlefield, reflecting a sad and beautiful scene.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people feel nauseous. The bloody smell on the battlefield attracted flocks of crows and wild dogs to come and look for food. These animals shuttled between the corpses, making creepy calls, and were not very afraid of people.

The mountains in the distance were looming in the morning light, adding a sense of mystery to the battlefield. The trees in the mountains swayed gently in the morning breeze, as if mourning for the lives lost.

The people of Liangshan did not dare to relax for a moment. The scout camp and the military intelligence department were still outside closely monitoring the various government troops. Du Fu led the cavalry to take turns on guard outside.

In a corner of the battlefield, Liangshan soldiers were busy cleaning up the battlefield. They carefully carried the bodies of their comrades, wrapped them in cloth, and prepared to transport them back to Liangshan for burial. Their faces were full of grief and fatigue, but they still adhered to their duties.

Some of the wounded were placed in makeshift tents, and Wang Li and the medical battalion were treating them intensively. Their faces were filled with hope and courage, and despite their serious injuries, they still firmly believed that they could survive the difficulties.

Li Zhu led the navy that arrived to clean up the spoils, while Zheng Da led his men to search for means of transportation to transport the bodies of the Liangshan soldiers and the spoils.

Hu Xian said to Zhang Shun: "Deputy Division Commander, the army was killed so miserably!"

Zhang Shun replied: "Why, you also want to participate in such a battle?"

Hu Xian said subconsciously: "Yes!"

Zhang Shun had commanded naval battles before. He shook his head and said, "Don't be envious. If they die in battle, they may still have their bodies intact. But we, the navy, can forget about it."

Although Hu Xian had never participated in a large-scale naval battle, he had fought on the water and knew the situation. He nodded silently and continued to move the spoils.

Wang Li was busy until the afternoon before he went to find Shi Wengong and Su Ding. The two were leading people to clean up the bodies of the Han soldiers in Zengtou City. The wounded were all sent to Wang Li.

After the melee last night, there were only about 400 soldiers left in Zengtou City. In their eyes, they hated the Jurchens even more, so they charged the most fiercely and were not wearing armor. The Jurchens regarded them as traitors and would selectively kill them first. That was why their casualties were so great.

When they saw those women, they burst into tears again. A few of them even found their relatives, and they also knew that those who died in the battle last night had not died in vain.

When the group of people saw Wang Li coming to them, they all bowed and said, "Thank you, Village Chief Wang!"

Shi Wengong and Su Ding knelt on one knee and said, "The criminals Shi Wengong and Su Ding are willing to surrender to Liangshan. We hope the leader will take them in!"

Wang Li helped them up and said, "Please stand up, two teachers. You are innocent. The guilty ones are these foreigners. You will stay in Liangshan from now on and go back to arrange your positions!"

"Chief, I want to go to Liangshan too!" After the first one knelt down, the remaining four hundred people knelt down as well.

"Alright, come on! Come on!"

"Thank you for taking me in!"

Wang Li patted Shi Wengong on the shoulder and said, "We'll arrange a welcoming banquet for you when we get back. Go get busy first. Go to the navy later and transport these women away first!"

The two nodded: "Yes, Brother Village Chief!"

Wang Li was very pleased to have subdued two more powerful generals.

Wang Li came out and found Li Zhu and asked, "Brother, how are you? When can you come back?"

Li Zhu said, "Brother, it seems that it is midnight. In yesterday's battle, we lost 863 people, more than 200 were injured or disabled, and countless were slightly injured."

Wang Li said, "Count the people from Zengtou City as well!"

Assistant Li nodded and continued, "This time we seized more than 3,000 war horses, and the money and grain are roughly estimated to be more than twice that of Zhujiazhuang! In addition, there are various medicinal herbs, furs from Liaodong, and a lot of pig iron and military equipment from the Song Dynasty!"

Wang Li nodded!

In this battle, Zengtou City suffered a loss because they had no armor. Although they were arrogant and domineering, they did not dare to touch the bottom line of the Song Dynasty, which was to hide armor privately. The Song Dynasty regarded the private possession of armor as an extremely serious crime! Therefore, even the Five Tigers of the Zeng Family only wore leather armor.

While Wang Li was thinking, a messenger suddenly came to report.

"Report~ Village leader, more than 5,000 troops from Qingzhou are attacking, and judging by the banner, it belongs to Qin Ming, the commander-in-chief of Qingzhou's army!"

"Got it. Let Du Fu take people to stop them!" Wang Li said as he took out a token.

"Yes!"

Du Fu can stop this guy Qin Ming, Wang Li continued to think, and suddenly someone came to report.

"Brother, there's a Taoist priest outside, calling himself Yiqing Taoist!"

"Where is Taoist Yiqing?" When Wang Li heard Taoist Yiqing, he immediately went out to greet him. This was Ruyunlong.

As soon as Wang Li went out, he saw a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and with an immortal look coming towards him. He bowed slightly when he came to him. "Wulian Tianzun, I am Yiqing, and I am honored to meet you, Daoist Wang!"

Wang Li also returned the greeting and said, "I have met Taoist Master Yiqing! I have long heard of your great name. Please come in, Taoist Master!"

Wang Li ushered Gongsun Sheng in, and they sat down. After the guard poured tea, Gongsun Sheng asked, "Fellow Daoist Wang, do you know me?"

Wang Li lied, "I heard from my master that Master Luo has a talented disciple!"

Gongsun Sheng nodded and said, "Master Miao An is so kind. I am ashamed to accept it!"

Wang Li asked, "I wonder why the chief came here this time?"

Gongsun Sheng paused and said, "I came here to inform Daoist Wang and Madam that you are not allowed to use magic on mortals. This is the rule set by our Taoism after the end of the Shang Dynasty! Otherwise, you will be judged as an evil cultivator, and the righteous will come to destroy you!"

Wang Li hates this the most. He has never used it. In this era, magic is regarded as a nuclear weapon? However, as a time traveler, he does not reject such a rule!

Wang Li said, "Master, are you mistaken? My wife and I have never used magic on mortals!"

Gongsun Sheng still smiled and said, "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Wang. It has been decided by my master and the seniors that your wife and Fellow Daoist Wang's exotic beasts should not be used on the battlefield in the future."

Wang Li felt annoyed. I went to greet you with great joy, and you came here to do this? But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. He, his wife and his senior brother can't beat him, not to mention that there is an even more powerful old monster behind him?

Next, Wang Li asked some questions about how magic could be used, that is, Liangshan could only take action when others used magic to attack Liangshan.

Of course, if a mortal offends, he can be punished slightly, such as the incident with Zhang Zhongxiong.

In addition, the art of speed can also be used, such as delivering letters and traveling like Ma Ling and his daughter, but it cannot be used against mortals.

If this goes on, Wang Li and his wife and Li Zhu will not be able to take action at will. Fortunately, he now has two super five tigers under his command.

Wang Li asked unwillingly, "Master, can't we do anything to aliens?"

Gongsun Sheng shook his head and said, "The Jurchens also have shamans, who are also experts. Didn't the Jurchens not take action when they were bullied by the Liao Kingdom?"

Wang Li asked again: "What about Gaoli?"

Gongsun Sheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "If Gaoli didn't have it, it would have been destroyed long ago!"

Wang Li understood everything now. It seemed that the Song Dynasty was hanging on by a thread because of this. In the end, Mongolia recruited talents from almost all of Europe to suppress the Taoists in the Central Plains. Maybe one of the masters of the other side suddenly encountered an accident, and then they immediately counterattacked and established the Ming Dynasty!

Perhaps it was not until the emergence of hot weapons that this balance was broken. At that time, there was a saying that "even gods are afraid of a puff of smoke"! These are just Wang Li's own imagination.

Gongsun Sheng watched Wang Li thinking, and added, "They only have two level 6 people backing them up now. They won't take action unless the country is in danger of being destroyed. The same is true for other countries!"

Wang Li was delighted and understood what Gongsun Sheng meant. He meant that the masters of other countries might participate in state affairs to some extent, but Goryeo did not seem to do so.

Gongsun Sheng meant that they, the master and his disciples, also wanted to intimidate the Liao Kingdom within its territory, but they would not take action against corrupt officials and incompetent rulers, as they believed that these were God's will.

Wang Li stood up and said, "Thank you, Taoist Priest, for clearing up my doubts!"

Gongsun Sheng shook his head and said, "You're welcome. My ancestors also participated in Yang Guang's Eastern Expedition!"

Wang Li beat the snake and said, "I wonder if the Taoist priest can lend a helping hand when the time comes?"

Gongsun Sheng stood up and said goodbye, and finally said: "We'll talk about it later. I'll go to the court first to stabilize the current emperor!"

Wang Li said solemnly: "Thank you, Taoist Priest!"

Gongsun Sheng left, and Wang Li completely understood what role this guy played. He was like the world policeman. In his previous life, he went to Liangshan just to maintain balance. He destroyed Fang La because the other party was Manichaeism. He left in the end because of a certain agreement. Before he left, he trained Fan Rui for Liangshan...

The world is becoming more and more complicated. These so-called masters, after all, treat ordinary people like ants!

(The purpose of writing this chapter is that I don’t want to mix too much magic in the future. Many book friends say that this is boring.

However, Tan Lang will respect the opinions of all book friends on whether magic is mixed in. If you have any suggestions, please leave a message in the book review area and Tan Lang will see it directly.

The writer level of Tanlang is not high enough, and you have to flip through the comments page by page. As for modern military ranks, we may have to wait until a large number of generals who are regular soldiers appear on Liangshan Mountain, and then we can change it.)
