Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

Chapter 157: Xiaozuka Order, Sky-High Reward

As for the mastermind behind the previous raids on Liangtianlingcheng, Zaoyangxian County and Zhuanghongxian County, the truth finally came to light after the Japanese Xuanji Pavilion conducted intelligence investigation.

Just as the Japanese army was dealing with the four important cultivation resource sites in the secret territory of northwestern Shanxi.

At this moment in the secret land of northwest Shanxi, many villages and even smaller Japanese strongholds were being cleaned up by battalions of the Eight Desolate Army whose origins were unknown. The news spread...

"When Xiaozhong Ling learned that the three key training resource sites were actually captured by the troops led by Cao Geng and Ding Wei, he was furious."

"Cao Geng, it's that Cao Geng again..." Shinozuka Yoshio gritted his teeth, regarding Cao Geng as a thorn in his side. If it weren't for the taboo, he would have crushed Cao Geng to dust.

"Besides, the numerous villages and their subordinate strongholds throughout the secret territory of Northwest Shanxi have also been completely cleared out by the mysterious and unpredictable elite teams of the Eight Desolate Army?"

Yoshio Shinozuka's face turned pale as he realized that these mysterious Eight Desolations Army had launched a sweeping attack on the Japanese strongholds in the secret territory of northwestern Shanxi from all directions, which was obviously a long-planned attack.

He actually dared to launch a surprise attack when the Japanese army was processing the cultivation resources, as if snatching food from a tiger's mouth. He really didn't know how to live or die!

"I'm afraid this matter cannot be separated from the direct order of the commander-in-chief of the Eight Desolations Army." Yoshio Shinozuka's face was extremely gloomy.

In his opinion, only when the Japanese army began to deal with the remaining cultivation resources in the four major counties could the Eight Desolations Army carry out such a large-scale raid on the Japanese strongholds. This was undoubtedly a secret order personally granted by the commander-in-chief of the Eight Desolations Army.

Otherwise, who in the Eight Desolations Army could suddenly mobilize such a large force, gather from all directions, and launch a thundering attack on their Japanese strongholds?

However, Yoshio Shinozuka did not know that this so-called "mysterious" Eight Desolations Army unit did carry out a counter-purge in retaliation for the Japanese army's large-scale purge in the secret territory of northwestern Shanxi.

But in fact, the orders these troops carried out did not come from the commander-in-chief of the Eight Desolations Army, but from Cao Geng, the person he was worried about day and night and wanted to get rid of as soon as possible!

"Since the Eight Desolate Army dared to touch my tiger whiskers, then from now on, you, the Eight Desolate Army, will never escape this disaster."

After calming down for a while, Shinozuka Yoshio's face was still gloomy. Then, he gave an order to his adjutant:

"Since our army has solved the problem of cultivation resources in the secret territory of northwest Shanxi, now is the time to restart the war machine."

The war machine here refers to the large-scale cleansing operation that the Japanese army is about to launch again in the secret territory of northwestern Shanxi.

After solving the problem of cultivation resources, they would naturally start this plan again.

At the side, the adjutant bowed his head respectfully, as if listening to instructions: "Lieutenant General Shinozuka, please give me your instructions."

Shinozuka Yoshio decisively waved his hand and ordered: "Immediately inform the entire army to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth cleanup of the secret territory in northwest Shanxi!"

......

"If you encounter a disciple on the immortal path, you must kill him without mercy!"

"If you encounter a mortal Chinese protecting a disciple of the Immortal Path, kill him immediately as a warning!"

"On the contrary, if any Chinese people are willing to reveal clues about the whereabouts of the Immortal Path disciples, our department promises to reward five gold crystals for any valuable information!"

Even in the eyes of Master Suizhu, the Chinese people are like grass and dust.

But as a leader, he is well versed in the art of ruling.

Only by clearly defining rewards and punishments can the enthusiasm of the Chinese people be stimulated to reveal the whereabouts of the disciples on the immortal path.

however,

Once the Huaxia people really provide clues about the immortal disciple Cao Geng,

It is unknown whether those promised five gold crystals can actually fall into the hands of the Chinese people.

"In addition, the clearing operation has been launched again. It must be carried out in an orderly manner. In addition, our exploration of Cao Geng and his immortal path lineage must not be slackened..."

True Man Suizhu said this.

Since the battle of Huaian City, the disciples of the Sun and Moon Sect led by him spent a whole month looking for Cao Geng's team.

During that period of time, Cao Geng and the immortal lineage he belonged to seemed to have disappeared from the world. No matter how hard Master Suizhu tried, he could not find any trace of Cao Geng.

But now that Cao Geng has reappeared in the arena,

True Man Suizhu would certainly not let this big fish that had just returned to the net slip away quietly.

However, after issuing this order, Master Suizhu realized that it would be extremely difficult to search for and eliminate Cao Geng and his disciples relying solely on the power of the Sun and Moon Sect.

After all, Cao Geng was an extremely cunning person.

In an instant, Master Suizhu suddenly had an inspiration:

"So, from now on, not only will our army go all out to hunt down Cao Geng and his Immortal Path lineage throughout the entire Beilu Continent, but we will also simultaneously announce to the outside world throughout the entire Beilu Continent that a bounty order has been issued for Cao Geng..."

"If anyone can personally take Cao Geng's head and deliver it to any of our bases, we will give him three million gold crystals for free and immediately make him the closest ally of the Sun Moon Divine Cult in China!"

"If anyone can provide clues to Cao Geng's exact whereabouts, once confirmed, our department will also give 50 gold crystals as a reward!"

Indeed, gold, silver and fine wine are the easiest to move people's hearts.

With the huge bounty of 300 gold crystals, it is expected that there will be many people in the entire Beilu Continent who are willing to assist the Sun and Moon Sect in finding and eliminating Cao Geng.

Master Suizhu is convinced that

Among the various groups of people who are eyeing the huge bounty, in addition to the Sun Moon Divine Sect and its affiliated Japan-China Alliance, there must be many neutral factions among the Chinese cultivation forces.

This move by Master Suizhu can be said to be a brilliant strategy.

In order to capture Cao Geng, he cleverly used a large reward as bait and brought those originally neutral Chinese cultivation forces under his command.

"Yes, sir!" After receiving the order from Master Suizhu, the adjutant did not hesitate and immediately prepared to carry out the mission.

As expected, after True Man Suizhu issued a bounty for Cao Geng, the entire Beilu Continent was instantly shaken and caused a huge uproar.

original,

......

In the era when immortals and demons were intertwined, when the Japanese army invaded China, many Chinese cultivators did not resist the foreign aggression unitedly.

It happened that Yoshio Shinozuka issued a large reward for Cao Geng. The pro-Japanese elements and neutral factions in the Chinese cultivation world were all moved by the huge reward.

It’s a huge amount of three million spirit stones.

Gold, silver and fine wine are enough to shake the hearts of ordinary people.

What do three million spirit stones symbolize at this moment?

It is the freedom of cultivation that allows any Chinese cultivator to travel freely in this vast land of China.

If this money were converted into cultivation resources, it would be enough to purchase more than 60 cultivation mansions in the most advantageous locations in the capital!

Or if you use it for pleasure, it would be enough to consume a person's life and never be able to spend it all!

Originally, there were many practitioners in the Shenzhou Continent who were smart in protecting themselves.

In the past, although they were not enthusiastic about resisting aggression, their sense of honor as Chinese monks prevented them from colluding with the demonic Japanese country.

However, at this moment, with the arrival of the 300,000 ocean reward offered by the small Japanese country on Cao Geng, their attitude towards the Japanese army changed drastically.
