Chapter 109: Conspiracy
It is more than 900 miles southeast of Jiuhua City
There is a city
Although the scale of this city is not as large as that of Jiuhua County, the city wall is very high, and there are arrow towers on all sides.
After decades of fighting against the invasion of the Tianxuan Kingdom, it has become the gateway to the southeast border, this is the Lonely Goose City!
And now, there are soldiers on this wall to defend day and night.
Outside the city gates on all sides, there are heavy sieges of a hundred battle armies.
Under the city wall, the faint smoke of gunpowder is messy in the wind, and the two sides have fought several times, but the city is stubbornly defended, and the army outside the city needs to pay a great price if they want to break through. So it's a situation where we're fighting now.
The night receded, and dawn came.
Chen Tian rested for one night and recovered most of his injuries. He was standing outside the tent, watching everything under the Lonely Goose City.
Last night, he followed Luo Cheng all the way back to the camp. Luo Hao was arranged to heal, perhaps because he saved Luo Hao, in short, no one came to deliberately monitor him anymore
Looking at the scene of the city in disarray and blood, it is not difficult to imagine the tragic situation of the offensive and defensive battles that broke out before, and there were not a few casualties.
Chen Tian felt more and more that his choice to risk his life to save Luo Hao was not wrong.
"War is cruel, and death and injury are inevitable!" a slightly weak voice sounded around him
Chen Tian didn't look back and responded, "Are you okay with your injuries?"
The person who came was Luo Hao, and he shook his head
"Why don't you risk your life to save me?" Luo Hao pondered for a moment, and then added: "You obviously know that I am suspicious of you, it is easy to leave with your strength, why do you want to come back?"
Chen Tian just looked ahead lightly: "For the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in and outside this city, and for the two countries of Heavenly Sword and Tianxuan not to be provoked by traitors and cause rivers of blood!"
"Once the war has begun, it will never stop easily! You may stop it for a while, but the war will continue, and death will happen at any time!"
"Then do my best to stop as long as I can! ”
"In troubled times, everyone is in danger, and even my father does not dare to say that he can stand in troubled times. Your mindset will only put yourself in danger!"
Chen Tian's face was excited, and for some reason, he had a paranoid attachment to peace in his heart
"General Luo, the nine kingdoms are so big, why can't they coexist, and the war can solve the problem? It will only make this southern wilderness land more vicissitudes and suffering, and in that way, in the end, it is not only the people of Li who will suffer, but also the thousands of warriors who will be implicated!"
Luo Hao looked at Chen Tian deeply, for a long time, and smiled bitterly: "Since ancient times, there are not a few people who are worried about the country and the people, but no one can succeed, you and I are just two grains in this thousands of dust, insignificant, it is still difficult to settle down, how can we talk about the common people?"
"Besides, when war should break out, the royal families of the Nine Kingdoms may not be able to stop it! There are many factors that even the emperor has to submit to, interfering with the development and direction of the Nine Kingdoms?"
Chen Tian was suddenly taken aback: "Among the Nine Kingdoms, it is not the emperor who is the most?
Luo Hao shook his head slowly: "I just heard my father mention it, I don't know how it is, but if the cultivation is strong enough, what is the royal family and the Nine Kingdoms?"
Chen Tian was silent, and he had to admit this. The motivation and pursuit of many martial artists to cultivate desperately, in addition to immortality, is power, wealth and status!
Suddenly, Luo Hao's expression was straight, and he took out two jade bottles from his arms and handed them to Chen Tian
"Although I don't know what method you used to lure Fu Benchu away, but I see that you have lost a lot of qi and blood, so I think it has something to do with it. These were two bottles of third-order demon beast essence blood. Thank you!"
Chen Tian pondered for a moment, and without being polite, he took the essence blood, and now he needed the essence blood!
Luo Hao bowed slightly politely: "The grace of saving life, Luo Hao remembers it in his heart, if you need it, you can speak at any time, as long as I can, I will not give up." If you want to leave, you can leave at any time, no matter where you go, I will not stop you. ”
Chen Tian bowed slightly, although this Luo Hao is a general, he is not informal, he conspires peacefully, understands the overall situation, and knows kindness and righteousness! A rare general! No wonder he can be ranked as the youngest third-grade general!
After Luo Hao finished speaking, he turned around and left, how Chen Tian chose him will not interfere or retain, it is enough to express his goodwill and sincerity! In addition to gratitude, Luo Hao also has his own plans, Chen Tian has the world in mind, his qualifications are amazing, he acts strategically and then acts, and he is upright, and his achievements in the future will definitely not be low.
Glancing back, the tired defenders on the city wall, Chen Tian sighed.
"I don't know what happened to Jiuzhen and them, judging from the traces, they also came to this Lonely Goose City. I just don't know if I've entered the city!"
He went to inquire about the generals of the Hundred Battles Army, and no outsiders had entered the city in recent days.
However, a battle broke out last night, and after knowing that Luo Hao was in danger, Luo Cheng collected his troops and went to the rescue.
Chen Tian thought about it for a long time, and he felt that Yijiu was really mysterious, and there was a good chance that they had entered the city.
He found Luo Hao and explained his intentions. Luo Hao hesitated for a moment and said that he wanted to ask Luo Cheng for instructions.
......
The Great Tent of the Hundred Battles Army
"No, I don't agree to this! How can a person who can escape under the nose of the Jade Bone Realm be underestimated, and let him enter the city, isn't that a tiger returning to the mountain?"
Luo Cheng's dull voice echoed
Luo Hao smiled cautiously and said: "After all, he saved my life, only this kindness, our Luo family should be grateful! Besides, Qiu Hao is already a trapped beast, even if Chen Tian helps him, will he be his father's opponent?"
"Don't pat your old man's ass here, I will never agree to this, the two armies are facing each other, and no factor can be taken lightly. That kid saved my son's life, but I also gave out two third-order demon beast essence blood."
Speaking of this, even Luo Cheng was a little distressed: "Our Luo family has a total of three bottles, I asked you to send one bottle, but you will send out two bottles at once, which is enough to offset his sacrifice to save him!"
In the face of his father's stubbornness, Luo Hao was also a little annoyed in his helplessness: "The bottle in the City Lord's Mansion was also given away by me." ”
Luo Hao came out of the camp, and behind him was Luo Cheng's angry and ruined scolding of the loser.
When Luo Hao came over, looking at the depressed expression, Chen Tian knew that most of the things didn't work out.
"It's okay, understand"
After knowing that someone was secretly dividing the relationship between the two armies, Luo Cheng was not in a hurry to attack Lonely Goose City, and was just besieged all day.
And the situation of the soldiers guarding the city seems to be very unoptimistic, according to the previous Jiuzhen information, the grain and grass in Guyan City have been burned, and it is very good to be able to hold on until now.
The current Lonely Goose City can be said to have run out of ammunition and food, and it can't hold on for a few days. It was only a matter of time before the city broke.
......
Eighty miles away from Lonely Goose City
An army was stationed
If there are generals here, it must be seen that the position occupied by this army can be attacked and defended when retreating
This army is all white armor, and it is also a subordinate of the Jiuhua Army
One of the tents was decorated with flowers and greenery, all for women
Fu Benchu, Ma Jian and others stood below, lined up on the left and right, and there were still two big slap prints on Fu Benchu's face that did not disappear
Jade King Du Huaiyue sat on the top, and two handsome men stood beside him, one rubbing his shoulders and the other pinching his legs. Du Huaiyue combed her long straight hair with a wooden comb and listened to the reports of her subordinates
"King Jing's side has already begun to take action, the military advisor of the Jiuhua Army is a character, he failed to get into the scheme, with his help, King Jing will be a lot smoother!"
Another subordinate also respectfully reported: "It is rumored that the soldiers in Black Tiger City are ready, as long as the time comes, King Ming's side will deliver a fatal blow!"
"Hmph, those two guys are very anxious! Right now, the timing is good, and they are all waiting to defeat the enemy, so that they can ask for credit in front of their father. If you are anxious for quick success, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later" Du Huaiyue rolled her eyes, a little disdainful
Instead, he seemed to remember something, made a move in his hand, and looked at Fu Benchu and the others coldly: "If it weren't for the unfavorable handling of a few of you, Luo Cheng and Qiu Hao would have been defeated by now, let's sit back and reap the benefits." ”
"You can also take the lead to get rid of Qiu Hao, the father's trouble. The credit is small, but if I can take over Qiu Hao's military power, then the throne is in my pocket!"
"But it was ruined by a few of you waste!" said the excitement, Du Huaiyue's face was distorted, and when the spiritual power was shocked, the two male attendants rolled to the ground together, facing the high Jade King, they prostrate on the ground, not daring to raise their heads
Fu Benchu hurriedly knelt down
It can be seen that Du Huaiyue's majesty must also be a figure in the court
After venting, Du Huaiyue's anger disappeared a lot, and he looked at the kneeling few people with disgust, if it weren't for his own plan to use these people, he would have killed them all.
"Chen Tian, dare to spoil my good deeds, wait until I clean up the fools of the Three Kingdoms, and then come to clean you up!"
Du Huaiyue raised her head and asked, "Is there any news from Uncle Huang?"
"Taiguo Gong sent a message saying that he would send a master to help, so that the general could just do it boldly!"
......
night
Chen Tian walked around the barracks, thinking about how to determine the safety of Qiu Fengyi and the others.
"Huh?"
Chen Tian was surprised, because it was late at night, but he found that the soldiers who were supposed to rest were all dressed neatly, and many were packing their bags.
Isn't it going to be a war? What's the matter with packing up, is it going to be withdrawn?
Maybe it was his own words that touched Luo Hao a lot, and he finally figured it out? No, Luo Hao couldn't even say that he let him enter the city, his father Luo Cheng. How could it be possible to let Luo Cheng withdraw from the army
found Luo Hao and asked the reason
However, to Chen Tian's surprise, even Luo Hao didn't know what was going on
Stopped a soldier casually, Luo Hao asked
"What are you packing your bags for?"
"It's General Luo Cheng"
"Father is retiring from the army?"
"I don't know about this little one!"
Luo Hao was very puzzled, why did he let himself rush to help overnight if he wanted to retreat from the army?
When he came to Luo Cheng's tent, without waiting for him to ask, Luo Chengcheng said directly
"I know you have doubts, but the situation is urgent, you clean up, let's return to Tianxuan immediately!"
"We finally crossed the border river! Now the Lonely Goose City is about to be broken! You want to withdraw at this time? Why?"
