"My Lord, what should we do?"
"Lin Che is almost ready to declare himself king, yet Your Majesty still maintains this attitude. How can we prove his guilt for rebellion?"
The deputy general of the Tian Ce Army was a typical warrior, with strong limbs, brave but not wise, and no direction at all.
Jiang Shangwu, however, was already confident. He patted the deputy general on the shoulder and said:
"If a person is condemned by thousands of people and faces the wrath of the world, even our Majesty cannot forcibly protect him."
"Doesn't he like writing poetry? Go tell the chief steward to ask the Grand Secretary Guan Dui to copy it. The handwriting must be exactly the same!"
After hearing this, the deputy general finally understood and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and compliment him.
"Brilliant! Your Highness, this move is absolutely brilliant! This kid likes to write poetry and likes to be in the spotlight, so let him continue to be famous throughout the world. Hahahaha."
The second deputy general took the secret letter, read the poem twice, and said worriedly:
"Your Highness, this Lin Che is able to write such murderous poems. If, as the secret letter says, he has achieved another breakthrough, he will become a great scholar. If we were to take action against him, I'm afraid all the Confucian scholars would stand up..."
Jiang Shangwu raised his head proudly, looked at the mountains in front of him, and said loudly:
"So, we can't just come straight in! We have to make His Majesty give up on him first. As for the Confucians, they're just useless scholars, so don't bother with them!"
"Then, Your Majesty, do we still need to encircle and suppress those villages now?"
"Of course—they're stubborn. Burn down a few of their villages first, and they'll come out and talk!"
"yes--"
The Tian Ce Army accelerated again, crossed mountains and rivers, and rushed towards the village in a dangerous place.
Because the Tian Ce Army members have high cultivation levels and do not need to bring war horses, they are very fast.
At sunset, the front team had already arrived at the first village.
"It's so quiet, where are they?"
The leader of the team was also a little confused. They had not been exposed along the way and had not met anyone from the village. But why was there no one when they arrived at the village?
It’s already this late, don’t people in this village need to cook dinner?
"Go in and search! Catch him alive."
"Understood!"
Thousands of Tiance soldiers rushed into the village, and when they reached each house, they kicked the door open. From many houses, the screams of poultry could be heard, and chickens and dogs fled.
Boom!
One soldier lost control of his strength and used his true energy to kick the wall open, causing the entire wall to collapse.
"No."
"I don't have any here either."
"They've stewed all the animal bones. There must have been someone there during the day. They must have noticed us coming and ran away. What a bastard!"
After a while, all the soldiers who entered the village to search came back to report that they really didn't find anyone.
This must mean that the entire village received the news in advance.
"An entire village of mountain people has disappeared. Where could they hide?"
The leading officer looked at the surrounding mountains. It was already very dark, and the mountainside was covered with poisonous fog.
He simply ordered a group of soldiers to shout towards the mountains:
"Is there anyone here? Get out!"
"I'll give you a quarter of an hour. If you don't come out, we'll set fire to the village!"
A group of soldiers used their Qi to shout, and their voices echoed in the valley and could be heard no matter how far away they were.
In the forest, there was a group of disheveled villagers squatting.
They were all looking at the situation in the village. Those soldiers were holding torches, and it was obvious that they had come with ill intentions.
"These beasts really came."
"If the Son of God hadn't warned us a few days ago, we wouldn't have been on guard and would have been caught by them. Son of God, please come and punish them."
"What should we do, Chief? Should we go down? Judging from their behavior, they won't really burn our village, will they? We have all our food at home."
"Don't move, don't make any noise—if the food is gone, it's gone. Just keep people alive."
"Chief, I'm hungry. Even if I don't eat, my baby needs to eat too."
It is not easy for a group of mountain people in the village to hide.
At this moment, the voices of the Tian Ce Army suddenly changed again, and then the fire in the village began to grow bigger and bigger.
"Ah—they, they really set our house on fire."
"No, no, damn it. I need to go back and put out the fire."
"Don't go down the mountain, don't go down."
"Ahhh. That's our house, and it's gone."
Soon, the whole village was engulfed in flames.
The mountain people who have lived in this dangerous place for countless lifetimes now have to watch their houses burn down.
Under the reflection of the blazing fire, a group of ferocious Tiance Army continued to shout:
"Tomorrow morning, if you don't show up, I'll burn down your second and third villages! Finally, I'll burn down all your villages!"
…
The sun is shining brightly.
A strong wind swept across the grassland, and the main flag of the Shenji Camp fluttered in the wind, emitting a faint glow.
Lin Che was practicing with his eyes closed in the main tent.
He finally learned the unique skill of great scholars to transmit sound over thousands of miles.
Boom!!
Lin Che's mind roared, and he felt as if he had entered another special world. This place, overlooking all living things on earth, was filled with righteousness.
He looked up and saw a world like a starry sky.
Among them, there are a few stars that are the most dazzling, and the righteous energy they exude is the most familiar.
