Chapter 937: Lie Prajna's Wisdom
Lingmen Mountain is an ordinary mountain located west of the Eastern Eight Heavens. However, because the main peak of this mountain is really huge, there are many branches, and it has been shrouded in fog that is enough to disturb the divine sense for a long time, it gives people a sense of conspicuousness and mystery, so it has a name.
However, Lingmen Mountain is generally seldom visited. Because this mountain is really far away from the Eastern Eight Heavens, even if an ordinary army marches quickly, it will take seven or eight days to arrive.
The reason why Lie Prajna is related to Lingmen Mountain is that the high-level military received intelligence that there is a group of old bandits with unknown strength hidden in Lingmen Mountain, so they issued orders to all parties to prepare to mobilize troops to suppress the bandits.
The so-called "old bandits" in the heavens are a very special name. The only ones who can be called old bandits are those who still firmly support Emperor Shitian today, even if they know that Emperor Shitian has fallen long ago, they still resist stubbornly and choose not to submit to Luohou.
Such forces are large and small, most of them are hidden somewhere in Mount Xumi, trying to grow and develop. And such forces basically have several common characteristics: first, they firmly support Emperor Shitian and wait for the return of the true master of the heaven; second, they are basically the people of the heaven; third, they are not afraid of death; fourth, they will appear in uncertain places from time to time to harass and plunder their targets, and even when they are strong, they can cause the annihilation of some regular troops.
Although these forces are scattered, they have highly unified goals, and there are many capable people and truly strong people. They firmly believe that they can rebuild the heaven through their own efforts and welcome Emperor Shitian back. Therefore, once they appear near a big heaven, they will most likely cause a lot of trouble to this big heaven. It is a headache for every big heaven, and it is also a problem that will be solved with all efforts once they are caught by a big heaven.
The order from the top of the army was naturally issued to the hands of Lie Prajna, the general. When Lie Prajna saw this order, he immediately moved his heart and sent someone to privately inquire about the strength of this group of old bandits.
Later, after some inquiries, Lie Prajna got the news that this group of old bandits was not strong and not to be feared. At least so far, there has been no record of this group of old bandits causing violent rebellion.
Lie Prajna was so happy that he almost jumped up when he got the news. He liked the old bandits who were not strong the most.
Because once the task of eliminating the old bandits is completed, due to its special nature and the importance of the old bandits to the major heavens and even the central Shanxian heaven, a lot of military merits can be obtained. However, if the old bandits are strong, Lie Prajna would not dare to accept the order easily. Because he was afraid that he would lose his troops and might even fail to complete the task in the end. But the old bandits who are not strong are different. He can easily eliminate them, and a lot of military merits will be at his fingertips. Isn't it wonderful?
So soon after that, Lie Prajna immediately used his background and relationships in the army to actively operate and finally took over the task of eliminating the old bandits. Then, he decisively sent his most capable commander, commanding more than 300 elite soldiers, to Lingmen Mountain to suppress the bandits.
The commander sent by Lie Prajna had reached the late stage of life nirvana. Although this commander did not bring all the troops, he brought all the elite troops. Therefore, Lie Prajna thought that the weak old bandits were just waiting for his troops to crush them, and he had already taken more than half of his military merits.
In the past few days, Lie Prajna had put the matter of suppressing bandits behind his mind. He felt that it was a matter of easy capture and he didn't need to worry about it at all. He just needed to wait for a good news. But he didn't expect that the messenger ran in in a hurry and said "the whole army was annihilated".
"How could this happen..." Lie Prajna felt that he was stunned. The news was too sudden. And the most important thing was that one of his elite troops was annihilated. His heart was bleeding.
"Could it be that the information I got about the strength of the old bandit was wrong..." Thinking of this, Lie Prajna immediately asked: "Then after this operation, have we further explored the true strength of the old bandit?"
The messenger wiped the sweat from his forehead and said truthfully: "To reply to your words, no one in the army who went there survived, so... so..."
Lie Prajna understood, and he felt a little overwhelmed. Things seem to be going wrong recently. There is a Xue Buping in the army who is against him, and there is an old bandit outside.
No one in the tent spoke for a while. Today's double blow has undoubtedly hit Lie Prajna's explosive point. They asked themselves that before they could think of a suitable method, it would be better not to make themselves unhappy.
"I have to kill this old bandit, otherwise I will not be able to complete the task I asked for, and I will become a laughing stock? I have to get rid of the one called Xue Buping, otherwise I will never be able to live in peace in the future. Oh, it's really annoying..." Lie Prajna became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. However, just when he was about to get angry again, an idea suddenly came to him, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
After several considerations, Lie Prajna felt that this method was indeed feasible. So, he suddenly straightened his back and said to the messenger below in a serious tone: "Seal the news you brought today. I don't want anyone else to know it, so as not to affect the morale of the army. In the next few days, I will make arrangements to personally march to Lingmen Mountain!"
"Yes!" The messenger answered loudly, then bowed to Lie Prajna and respectfully left the tent.
In the tent, only Lie Prajna and his confidants were left. The sinister woman asked: "Sir, are you going to lead the troops to personally march to Lingmen Mountain?"
Lie Prajna smiled and said, "Yes, it seems that the old bandits of Lingmen Mountain are more powerful than I thought. Since we have accepted the military mission, how can we retreat? Now, as long as I lead the troops in person, no matter how powerful the bandits of Lingmen Mountain are, can they not be destroyed?"
The woman hesitated for a moment and advised, "If you lead the troops in person, you will definitely mobilize a large number of troops, which will consume a lot of military pay and manpower. It doesn't seem worth it for a small old bandit of Lingmen Mountain."
Laughing, Lie Prajna said, "If it's just for a old bandit of Lingmen Mountain, it's naturally not worth it. But if I invite Miss Yue Xiaoxian of Yingzhaotian to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, and then try to let Miss Yue bring her Feipeng team in the Yingzhaotian Army, it will be very different."
"On the one hand, I will naturally earn military merits by suppressing the old bandits of Lingmen Mountain. bag. On the other hand, the Feipeng Squad must have a place in my vanguard attacking Lingmen Mountain. At that time, the vanguard will rush up, but my main force will not move. Do you think that the overall strength of the vanguard I arranged can be stronger than our troops that were completely wiped out this time? At that time, the Feipeng Squad will naturally be wiped out, and I will have to get rid of a big worry. On the other hand, I pretended not to know that the Feipeng Squad was Xue Buping's team, so that Xue Buping died "accidentally". At that time, even if Miss Yue knew the cause of Xue Buping's death, she could only regret it. I will attack openly and honestly, and she can't find any faults and can't blame me. On the contrary, I will eventually wipe out the old bandits with the main force and show my power. Wouldn't Miss Yue's heart be captured by me? How can I let go of such a good thing that kills two birds with one stone? "
When everyone heard it, they reacted. To be honest, this strategy must be great for Lie Prajna. However, most of the troops were mobilized for their own private affairs, and the confidants really disagreed with it.
However, these deputy generals and confidants knew that Lie Prajna had a strong backstage, so they couldn't say anything. So, they all put on a flattering smile on their faces and said repeatedly: "My lord, your plan is really great, and you are really a genius!"
"Hahaha!" Lie Prajna laughed loudly, as if you are a bunch of good-for-nothings who can't think of any ideas, and in the end, only this lord can solve the problem in person.
"So, wait for me to write a letter and send it to Miss Yue. As long as I am sincere, she will definitely not refuse me. At that time, I will try to make her lead the troops and accidentally join the Feipeng team, and everything will be settled." After laughing, Lie Prajna said with a cunning face.
Then, his face suddenly became serious, and he said to the confidants under his account: "Pass my military order, reorganize the troops, and choose a day to follow me to the Lingmen Mountain!"
