Chapter 207 Building the Beijing Temple!
On the city wall, both sides attacked and defended fiercely, fighting hard.
Although the defenders of Jueshan Pass had the advantages in numbers, weapons and geographical location, they were still exhausted and the battle situation was extremely anxious.
Fortunately, Wu Xiaoyi had already had experience, promised huge profits, and sent a team to supervise the battle to suppress, and he could barely withstand the pressure of the barbarian army.
However, during this process, Wu Xiaoyi also discovered that there was an area on the left side of the city wall. Not only did the barbarians not climb the tower, but they began to hunt down the barbarians in an orderly manner.
At a cursory glance, the corpses of foreign barbarians were piled under that section of the city wall, forming an obvious mountain of corpses.
“Why is this?”
Wu Xiaoyi’s attention couldn’t help but be attracted.
I found that the more than twenty soldiers on top of the city were all brave and fearless, and all of them were extremely brave.
Not only are their morale high, but they all seem to be tireless. They become more and more courageous as they fight. Even if they engage in hand-to-hand combat with ferocious barbarians, they do not show any signs of timidity.
One of them had a large gash in his stomach with the barbarian's giant axe.
My intestines were leaking out, and she looked terrible.
But the soldier put his intestines back into his stomach with a piece of cloth, and then wrapped his stomach.
He continued to fight hard, and even though the blood from both sides dyed him red, there was no trace of timidity or flinching in his eyes.
Wu Xiaoyi even felt that he might have seen it wrong.
There seemed to be not only no fear in the soldier's eyes, but also a hint of emotion.
It seems like... excitement and pleasure?
He actually felt excited on such a battlefield that looked like a walking dead?
The battle lasted for half an hour before it ended.
The group of 'warriors' who were clearly out of tune with the surrounding soldiers were not in a hurry to leave the battlefield.
He even refused the diagnosis and treatment of the military doctor, and after hastily bandaging the wound, he followed the team cleaning the battlefield out of the city gate.
When these twenty or so people came under the ‘mountain of corpses’ they had created, the smiles on their faces became brighter and their excitement was palpable.
I saw them stepping forward and cutting off the heads of these barbarian corpses.
Then they were placed in the open space, one by one, placed very neatly, as if they were piled up into a small tower.
Wu Xiaoyi’s face changed slightly when he saw this scene on the city wall.
Understand that these people’s actions are ‘building a view of the capital’.
Building the Jingguan Temple is an extremely bloody and cruel scene of horror, intended to demonstrate military exploits and intimidate the enemy.
However, hundreds of years ago, Taizu Taizu of the Qi Dynasty felt that the construction of the Jingguan was too cruel, and it would easily accumulate the resentment of the dead souls, which would instead cause more evil and strange things.
Therefore, he rejected the general's suggestion to build a temple in Beijing several times.
Following the established convention, many generals in later generations had no intention of building a Jingguan, fearing that such a move would not go well.
If an official from Chao Zhongyan reads this book, it will cause a lot of trouble for nothing.
"My lord, do you want to order that these soldiers who built the capital privately are arrested and punished?"
"No need." Wu Xiaoyi thought for a moment, then explained:< br>
“They have finally been able to inspire some morale, and we must not destroy their morale easily.”
“Besides, heavy laws are used in troubled times, and now the border is in danger.”
"No matter how unscrupulous the method is, as long as it is effective, we must use it."
Finally, when Wu Xiaoyi left, he specifically told his subordinates not to embarrass those soldiers.
Instead, send someone to commend them for their bravery in killing the enemy today, reward them based on their merits, and promote those who should be promoted as soon as possible.
Tonight he will personally commend the achievements of these warriors at the celebration banquet.
Wu Xiaoyi had not seen such brave soldiers for a long time. In order to boost the morale of the border guards, which had been declining for a long time, he was determined to set these soldiers as role models. This can inspire other soldiers to learn from them and also energize them to fight the enemy bravely.
At this time, Xu Ke, who felt a pure evil spirit pouring into himself, also nodded with satisfaction.
Now he can transform his fictitious earth spirits into statues, which can perform various miracles when people visit them.
These days, Xu Ke has asked Zhao Yuanbai to call himself the ‘blood god envoy’.
Then spread your beliefs about yourself at the border.
The general content is that as long as you believe in the Blood God, the Blood God can help you be invincible and kill all enemies.
As long as you hold a weapon and kill in his name, you will be favored by him.
When you hear his horn, the craziest anger and destructive desire will burst out in your heart, killing all enemies in madness.
Only the blood and death cries of their enemies can give them pleasure.
Xu Ke even said:
"The sound of blood gushing and bones breaking is the best prayer."
Of course, with these blank words, Xu Ke could not convince the believers.
Therefore, Xu Ke specially used a precious blessing to bless his statue.
As long as they chant the name of the Blood God and kill, the Blood God can grant them courage, madness and strength.
In Xu Ke’s view, if natural disasters take away the precious positive qualities of these gatekeepers.
Then he gives them negative madness, cruelty and bloodlust.
In this way, as long as the war does not stop and the enemy still exists, believers who believe in him can fight endlessly.
After several days of hard work, Zhao Yuanbai also successfully won over hundreds of followers composed of defenders for Xu Ke.
I felt doubtful and contemptuous at the beginning, but later I really felt that the timidity in my heart disappeared, and strength and courage surged into my heart.
They immediately became loyal believers of the ‘Blood God’.
Until today's war, some of Xu Ke's followers have successfully emerged.
The scene of brutal killing caught the eyes of Wu Xiaoyi, the commander-in-chief of Jueshan Pass.
This is also Xu Ke’s biggest goal.
Only with the help of Commander-in-Chief Wu Xiaoyi, was it possible for Xu Ke to spread the belief in the 'Blood God' throughout Jueshan Pass in a short period of time.
When the time comes, he will have 100,000 followers who have practiced Buddhism, and his strength will definitely rise, and he will reach a big level again.
At the same time, after these defenders abandoned their confusion and timidity, they were able to double their original strength.
This is true win-win cooperation.
Xu Ke is confident that after these 100,000 border troops convert to the Blood God, border troubles will no longer be a problem.
It can even give Xu Ke, who has a new force, a bargaining chip to compete with all the major forces in the world.
And for Xu Ke, these soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles and have great strength will not face complete death after dying in battle.
After believing in Xu Ke, Xu Ke can turn their souls after death into a more powerful existence than in life at the cost of consuming part of the Yin Qi.
Putting it in the teachings of the Blood God is:
Those who die in battle can be picked up by the Blood God’s envoys and become heroic spirits, possessing more powerful power to defeat your enemies. .
This can relieve the believers' last worries and completely turn them into madmen eager for war and killing.
