Transmigration begins with archery training
Chapter 258
Chen Sanshi remained silent.
"Brother Chen!"
Liang Jinian struggled to his feet: "The Great Sheng Dynasty is corrupt and its fate is sealed! Why should you risk your life for the Cao family? With such great talent and ambition, why not join me in building a great empire? Who knows, this country might even belong to the Chen family in the future!"
Got no answer.
Liang Jinian picked up the golden book and continued to persuade him, "Brother Chen! Do you see this? This is a celestial book, a celestial book bestowed upon me by an immortal! If you kill me, the celestial book will be presented to the imperial court, and you will get nothing. But if you cooperate with me, I can give you the book!"
Dead silence.
He finally realized that he was truly at his wit's end.
"Alright, let's get started..."
Liang Jinian closed his eyes.
But the death he had imagined did not come. He opened his eyes and questioned, "You, surnamed Chen, what are you waiting for? Are you trying to humiliate me?"
Chen Sanshi ignored him and simply looked quietly to the south.
Finally, a troop of cavalry came rushing towards them.
A woman and an old man were brought in as escorts.
"grown ups!"
Zhao Kang clasped his hands and said, "His family members have all been captured. The two maids were killed, and only these two remain!"
"Miss!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
"You surnamed Chen, I'll kill you!"
Liang Jinian picked up the sword from the ground, ready to fight to the death.
"Your Majesty!"
Zhao Kang kicked him and broke his right leg, causing him to roll in the mud in pain.
"Ah!"
He struggled to crawl forward, his tone shifting from anger to pleading: "Chen Sanshi, Lord Chen, I beg you, this has nothing to do with my wife! The rebellion has nothing to do with her! Don't let her family be implicated, please let her go, even if it means being slowly sliced to death!"
"Should the misfortune not extend to family members?"
Chen Sanshi finally spoke, lowering his body slightly and enunciating each word clearly: "Liang Jinian, do you know how many cities your men have slaughtered along the way? You have family, but don't they?"
"I……"
Liang Jinian was stunned and speechless.
"Give your woman some dignity."
Chen Sanshi said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, we'll have to take her away. I won't care what happens to the brothers who are guarding her then."
"what!"
Liang Jinian clutched his head and roared in anguish.
“Young man, I don’t blame you.”
Gao Peiwen picked up a knife from the ground and, before the scholar could react, committed suicide.
Following closely behind was Butler Wu.
"Kill him."
Chen Sanshi gave the order calmly.
"Click——"
The knife flashed, and Liang Jinian's head fell to the ground.
Chen Sanshi then dismounted.
"Commander Chen, shouldn't we capture him alive?"
Lu Shuhua asked in confusion, "The merit of capturing them alive is greater than that of killing them before."
"There are still pursuers behind us. It's inconvenient to travel with living people in tow. It will take some time before we are truly out of danger."
Chen Sanshi calmly said, "With his head and the Heavenly Book, it's enough to crush the morale of all the rebels. There's no need to bring in another burden."
"rational!"
No one objected.
Chen Sanshi stepped forward, bent down, and picked up the Heavenly Book.
The texture of this thing in your hand is like that of gold leaf.
He glanced at the people behind him: "Come and see if you want."
"Thank you, Brother Chen."
Yan Changqing was the first to come over.
After receiving permission, Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu also approached.
Bai Tingzhi, however, showed no interest whatsoever. He went over to examine each of the corpses to see if any were still alive.
"My lord, the characters on this don't seem to be from our Central Plains, nor do they seem to be from the surrounding four countries!"
"Yes, it really was written by an immortal!"
"..."
Chen Sanshi gently turned the pages of the booklet.
He looked at the flowing golden characters and found that they were the same as those in the "dictionary" translated by his fourth senior brother, which recorded the "sword qi technique." Others couldn't understand them, but he could.
What was written inside were indeed some formations.
It wasn't just military formations.
There are also some real magic arrays.
However, these magic arrays require all sorts of magical artifacts to create.
The remaining formations, composed of people, include both large military formations and small formations.
Small formations include all sorts of messy sword formations, magic formations, demon-suppressing formations, and evil-slaying formations. He could understand each individual rune, but when they were all connected, he couldn't understand them anymore.
These things can only be used by those who cultivate immortality; they are of no use to ordinary people.
The same applies to large military formations.
While formations can indeed draw upon the power of heaven and earth, the prerequisite is that the person using the formation must also have a foundation of cultivation. Martial arts practitioners cannot do it, and ordinary people, who are merely formation soldiers, are even less capable.
So how did the Red Eyebrows Army manage to do that?
gas!
The white, firework-like, mist-like mystic energy, when combined, can, to some extent, replace cultivation to form an array.
However, there is no record of "qi" in the celestial book.
"Brother Yan, is it alright to entrust the Heavenly Book to you for safekeeping?"
Chen Sanshi possessed a photographic memory; after reading it once, he deeply engraved everything he could and couldn't understand into his mind. The Heavenly Book itself had no special function, so it was useless for him to possess it. Instead, it would only arouse the suspicion of the imperial court.
and……
Just after Liang Jinian died.
The others still had the "willing to fight to the death" attribute on them, including Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu, who were initially very dissatisfied with him, but were still willing to charge into battle.
On the contrary, it was Yan Changqing, who seemed to have a good relationship with the two of them starting in Liangzhou and who was quite supportive of him in Mingzhou, whose descriptive attributes disappeared.
He was, after all, a person sent by the imperial court.
He is the grandson of the Grand Secretary.
They represent the imperial court and the emperor's interests.
After the war ended, the two were no longer on the same path.
"Isn't that inappropriate?"
Yan Changqing politely declined, saying, "I haven't reached the Transformation Realm yet. This item is of great importance, so it would be best if Brother Chen kept it safe."
"it is good."
Chen Sanshi said to the crowd, "Then I ask my brothers to be my witnesses. I will accept the goods first, and hand them over to the imperial court as soon as the war is over."
"President Chen, what do we do next?"
Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu, one on each side, unfolded the map in front of the general.
"Wait."
Chen Sanshi pointed to the location of Luotian Pass: "The troops here probably don't know about Meishan Prefecture yet. In another ten days or half a month, the imperial army from the capital should be able to cross the Great Wilderness and attack Luotian Pass."
"What we need to do next is wait, and then attack from both sides with the capital to take Luotian Pass. Then, based on this, we can stabilize the situation in the south of Mingzhou, and cooperate with the other generals, such as Lü and Rong, to slowly wipe out the remaining rebels and the troops of the Western Qi Kingdom."
"These next few days, everyone can have a good rest in Meishan Prefecture. Remember our rules: do not disturb or bully the people, or I will kill them on sight."
"As ordered!"
The army slowly entered the city.
