The Proud Wind and Cloud Chapter Thirty-One, Heavy Casualties

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    If it wasn't for the old man's reminder, Li Mu almost forgot that the "insider" who lured the enemy up the mountain hadn't been dealt with yet.

    It is not without support that one dares to come out in full force.  The terrain of Huashan is steep, and there are many checkpoints along the way. If there are foreign enemies invading, the mountain should have issued a warning long ago.

    If the news had been received earlier, the outcome of this battle would have been completely different.  It is enough to set up an ambush at a dangerous intersection, use rolling stones, bows and arrows, and kerosene to delay time, and stand by for help.

    If there is no geographical advantage to rely on, the Five Sacred Sword Sect is separated in the north and south, and has been defeated by the Demon Sect long ago.

    People from the Devil's Cult were only able to touch the mountain before they were discovered. Obviously, someone cooperated with the outside world and solved the hidden whistle in the door in advance.

    Thinking of arresting the "insider traitor", Li Mu secretly complained.  He has no clue, no capable manpower, how can he investigate?

    What's more, since people dare to betray, it is impossible to be completely unprepared. Maybe they have already run down the mountain to enjoy themselves.

    However, he still can't escape now, and the middle and high-level people who can still breathe on the mountain are on the ground with this old man.

    The few surviving senior brothers were all wounded, and Li Mu himself was the only one who was intact.  No matter how much you kick the ball, you can't throw it to the juniors and sisters below.

    Fortunately, the reinforcements composed of retired disciples arrived and took on the heavy responsibility of treating the wounded and collecting the bones of the dead, otherwise Li Mu would have been even more worried.

    Can't expect too much, everyone has withdrawn from the arena, and it is already very interesting to be able to come to support with a sword in the first place.

    The question of whether the traitor is not a traitor can be discussed later. First, report the great changes that have taken place in the mountain gate to the high-level frontline.

    A preliminary count of the number of casualties shows that a total of 317 people from the Huashan faction were killed in this battle, including six old elders, 137 inner disciples, and 93 outer disciples.  It's a handyman servant.

    The team that came to the rescue also killed eleven people because of encounters with the Demon Cult.

    Li Mu didn't count the number of injured people at all. Anyway, except for himself, there were only a group of new disciples who were incapable of participating in the battle.

    Compared with the heavy casualties, the record is simply ashamed to see others.  Although six or seven first-class experts of the Demon Sect were killed, the two most important elders of the Demon Sect ran away. As for the other miscellaneous fish, they didn't even have the qualifications to stand on the stage.

    Li Mu didn't know how to organize his words when he picked up his pen several times.

    That's all for outer disciples, except for the value of cultivating from a young age, other halfway recruits can accept as many deaths as possible.

    Inner sect disciples are different, each of them was cultivated at great cost in the sect, and so many are scrapped before they can be used, it is already hurting.

    There is no impenetrable wall in this world. The Huashan School's disciples have suffered such a heavy loss, and Guanzhong will definitely shake.  It is estimated that the next recruiting of disciples will probably be affected as well.

    According to the usual practice, in such emergencies, the recruitment of new disciples will be postponed.  It will not start again until the fear in everyone's mind is gone.

    The loss of the old man in the door is even more permanent, and there is no chance of making up for it.  This battle can also be regarded as the final curtain call of the masters.

    If they hadn't fought desperately just now and saved some vitality for the sect, it would have been too late for the Huashan faction to cry this time.

    With such a big thing happening, someone has to come out and take responsibility.  The one who bears the brunt is naturally Senior Brother Bai, who is in charge of the security work on the mountain, but he has already died a heroic death in the previous battle in order to defend the Huashan faction.

    Not only was he the number one person in charge gone, but the disciples who were in charge of guarding the checkpoints also lay dead collectively.

    The dead don't need to take responsibility, no matter how big their faults and stains are, they have been washed away with their own blood in previous battles.

    The person directly responsible is gone, so start with the high-status ones and pick the ones who might be involved.

    ?Unfortunately, the seven elders with the highest status in the mountain gate are now six dead and one injured.  Let the elders take the blame, I am afraid that the head of Ning Da would not dare to say such a thing.

    Looking further down, those who can be related are all lying in the coffin.  The rest are passers-by who can't hit eight poles. Even if they try hard to get up, they are not qualified to stand up to the thunder.

    The surviving one with a relatively higher status is Li Mu, so he can't stand up and take the blame, right?  Although this can save the trouble in the door and reduce the troubles of the high-level, but Li Mu does not have this kind of spirit of self-sacrifice.

    The main reason is that this "black pot" is too big, no matter who sticks it, it will inevitably peel off the skin.

    ?After hesitating for a long time, unable to determine the nature of the sneak attack by the Demon Cult, Li Mu simply played with Spring and Autumn brushwork.

    ? To sum it up: Huashan disciples are all heroic and heroic,?? Blame the Demon Cult for being too cunning.

    Finally, attach the record and personnel loss report, and send someone to send it out quickly.

    The rest of Li Mu doesn't have to worry about it, as long as he doesn't let himself be blamed, he doesn't care what kind of characterization is given by the door.

    After finishing all this, Li Mu not only did not relax, but became even busier.

    The shortage of servants needs to be replenished, the damaged buildings and infrastructure need to be restored, the wounded need to be treated, and the frightened juniors and sisters need to be appeased.

    The deceased colleague also needs to give an explanation. The issue of pensions can be temporarily postponed, but the funeral must be put on the agenda.

    Now the strategy in the door has reached a critical moment, and it will never give up unless it is absolutely necessary.  If the matter is not resolved for a long time, then the follow-up problems can only be handled by Li Mu.

    There is no doubt that this is hard work.  It should be done well for the affairs of the same sect, if not done well, it is inevitable to suffer "falling hang".

    Putting on a filial piety, Li Mu bumped into Ning Zhongze who was running towards him as soon as he went out.  If it weren't for his sharp eyesight and quick hands to catch him in time, it would be another scene of people turning their backs on their backs.

    "Junior Sister Ning, why are you running so fast?"

    It has nothing to do with the plot of the original novel, and he still has no interest in Ning Xiaoluoli, who is in her eleventh or twenties.

    The main reason is that the head's daughter is fine, which is something worth celebrating, at least you don't need to worry about being put on small shoes.

    Patting his chest, Ning Zhong, who came back to his senses, said anxiously: "Senior Sister Liu is about to die, brother, go and have a look!"

    Even though he is used to seeing life and death these two days and has become numb to the dead, Li Mu still felt a burst of sadness when he received this sad news.

    "Lead the way ahead!"

    The only old man in the mountain is recuperating to heal his wounds, and Li Mu, who is in charge of the overall situation in the mountain, has naturally become the backbone of everyone.

    Especially in the minds of many juniors and sisters, Demon King Li has a unique status.  I hated him before the war, but I loved him after the war.

    It can be said that this sneak attack of the Demon Cult taught everyone a deep lesson, and everyone became more mature, but it is a pity that the tuition fee is a bit expensive.
