Chapter 161: Take Keino Castle
Jiang Chao was looking forward to the good news of Han Lei and the others' triumphant return in the big tent, but unexpectedly, one of his subordinates ran in in a panic and said, "Elder, the big thing is not good, Hall Master Han and they have been defeated." ”
Jiang Chao was shocked and said, "What, defeated, how is this possible! Can you see clearly?"
The subordinate said: "Elder Hui, it is indeed defeated, and the little one saw that our troops were beaten and desperately fled in the direction of the camp." ”
Jiang Chao said, "Hurry up and inform Elder Qingfeng and prepare to respond." He walked briskly out of the tent.
Jiang Chao personally led a group of soldiers and horses towards the outside of the camp, and he didn't go far before he saw Han Lei, Qin Youcheng, and Tang Hong who fled back. Jiang Chao said: "Did the enemy chase after you?"
Han Lei said: "No. ”
Jiang Chao said: "Then hurry back to the camp." As he spoke, he led his army back the way he came.
Everyone returned to the camp, Jiang Chao said: "Han Lei, what is going on, we have the advantage of troops and strong horses, why did we lose the battle?"
Han Lei said with a guilty face: "The subordinates are incompetent, and I ask the elders to punish them." ”
Jiang Chao said: "Now is not the time to punish, you can tell me in detail about the battle just now." ”
Han Lei said: "Elder Hui, his subordinates originally thought that this battle would be won, but unexpectedly, a Taoist named Fa Yuan suddenly appeared in the enemy army for no reason, this person is skillful, he first defeated his subordinates, and then injured Qin Youcheng and Tang Hong, none of us are his opponents, although our strength is superior, but this person is too strong, and we can only escape from the enemy." ”
Jiang Chao said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, how can such a ruthless Taoist priest come out, I don't blame you for this, the three of you should retreat and rest first." ”
Han Lei, Qin Youcheng, and Tang Hong said respectfully: "Yes, Elder." He said and retreated.
After a moment of silence, Yi Qingfeng spoke: "Elder Jiang, I have a plan to capture Fa Yuan. ”
Jiang Chao was overjoyed and said: "What is Qingfeng's clever plan, let's talk quickly." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "Tomorrow, I will lead a team of soldiers and horses to meet this person, and after the battle, I will lead him to chase after him, and then let Xiang Chen, Renliang, and Qianqian set up an ambush in advance, as long as this person enters the ambush circle we have set up, I believe that the four of us will be able to capture him alive." ”
Jiang Chao said: "Okay, this plan is very good, according to what Qingfeng said." Go down and get ready. ”
Yi Qingfeng said, "Yes, Elder." Saying that, he retreated with Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, and Wu Renliang.
Early the next morning, Yi Qingfeng alone led a thousand soldiers and horses to the gate of Guiye City to call for battle, he opened his voice and shouted loudly: "The turtle grandson on the city tower, you listen to the master, hurry up and let the stinky Taoist priest who injured me yesterday Brother Han Lei, Brother Qin, and Brother Tang get out, and I will cut off his head today to feed the dogs." ”
Fa Yuan, who heard it well in the city, was on fire, and without saying a word, he led a team of soldiers and horses out of the city to meet the battle, and the two sides stood opposite each other. Fa Yuan glared angrily and said: "Stinky boy, you don't kill a nameless junior under the poor Dao sword, what is your surname, who is the teacher, report quickly." ”
Yi Qingfeng saw that Fa Yuan looked extraordinary, had a righteous face, and was not like such a traitorous villain, he paused and said: "Master, I will not change my name, I will not change my surname, and I will not change my surname, Yi Qingfeng, the elder of the Martial Arts Academy, yesterday you injured several of my eldest brothers, and today Yi Mou came to ask Your Excellency for advice." ”
Fa Yuan said with a cold face: "Good boy, he deserves the position of elder at a young age, so he must have some ability. Don't talk nonsense, let's see the real chapter under our hands. ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "Okay, then let you see the means of the master." Saying that, the Great Zhou Tianzhen Qi in his body instantly urged, only to see his body fly out violently, and at the same time, a Gang Qi several feet high rushed towards Fa Yuan between his palms.
Fa Yuan was not to be outdone, and at the same time as his body swept out, the long sword in his hand slashed out several cold rays of light to meet him, and a roaring sound came, and the attacks of the two men were all in vain.
Yi Qingfeng deliberately wanted to lead the source of law into the game, so he didn't use all his strength to fight, the two sides came and went, and in the blink of an eye, they exchanged more than a dozen moves. Yi Qingfeng fought and retreated, making Fa Yuan mistakenly think that he had the upper hand, and suddenly the gossip plate in Fa Yuan's hand was cold, and with an angry shout, the gossip plate smashed towards Yi Qingfeng's chest at a very fast speed, Yi Qingfeng saw the gossip plate flying, and said secretly in his heart: "I'll lie to you." As he spoke, he screamed and flew out to the side, pretending to be injured by the gossip disk.
When he got up, he shouted, "Brothers, withdraw." Saying that, he led his soldiers and horses to flee in embarrassment, Fa Yuan was overjoyed when he saw that Yi Qingfeng was injured by the gossip plate, and he yelled: "Everyone chase after them, don't let them run." Saying that, he unfolded his body and chased after Yi Qingfeng.
Yi Qingfeng secretly rejoiced when he saw Fa Yuan, and he led Fa Yuan to a valley. At this time, in the woods of the valley, Xiang Chen, Mu Qianqian, and Wu Renliang had already been in ambush for a long time. Yi Qingfeng stopped and said, "Fayuan, you as a cultivator should clearly distinguish between right and wrong, why do you act for the tiger and be willing to work for that thief of Ji Peng?"
Fa Yuan sneered: "Boy, you are dying, and you still have to bother with these tongues, I think you should go to the Netherworld Mansion and think slowly." As he spoke, he was about to rush forward with a wave of the long sword in his hand.
Yi Qingfeng shouted: "Slow, do you really think that I can't beat you, it's ridiculous, you can look around and make a conclusion." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiang Chen, Mu Qianqian, and Wu Renliang each led a group of soldiers and horses out of the woods, surrounding Fayuan's troops.
Fa Yuan suddenly realized, and he said angrily: "The surname is Yi, you are so insidious, you dare to calculate me." ”
Yi Qingfeng sneered: "I brought you here just because I was afraid that you would run away, and you would die!" As he spoke, his hands wearing the Vulcan gloves were red and bright, and as his fists swung wildly, a fiery red flame ten feet high was heading towards Fa Yuan with a overwhelming momentum.
Fa Yuan woke up like a dream, and he knew that the previous battle was not intentional by Yi Qingfeng. He roared: "I'll fight with you." As he spoke, the gossip disk in his hand was violently swung out, only to see countless cold lights burst out, and then a gossip phantom several feet high appeared in the air, heading towards the flying fiery red flames.
A loud bang came, and Fa Yuan was hit by the huge energy and took a few steps back. Seeing that the situation was not good, he turned around and fled, Xiang Chen on the side had already been on guard, and a lightning shock slashed out between his palms and blasted towards his chest, Fa Yuan was horrified, and he waved his sword in a panic to resist, and after a bang, he took a step back again.
At the same time, Yi Qingfeng's kick had swept firmly on his ribs, Fa Yuan fell to the ground with a scream, Yi Qingfeng stepped on his chest and said, "Don't move, otherwise you will be killed on the spot." ”
Fa Yuan secretly sighed and gave up resistance, and at this time, Wu Renliang, Mu Qianqian and others had already wiped out the team brought by Fa Yuan.
Wu Renliang stepped forward and said, "What's the use of keeping this stinky Taoist priest, it's better to cut him off with a knife." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "No, find someone to tie him up, I will keep him useful for myself." Plus, you have to find some more people to strip the enemy soldiers' clothes. ”
Wu Renliang nodded and said, "I guess what you're going to do." As he spoke, he took the order and left.
Yi Qingfeng and the others escorted the five-flower tied Fa Yuan back to the camp, Jiang Yuan said: "This fight is my subordinate, today fortunately you captured him alive, according to my opinion, he should be pushed out and beheaded, I don't know what Qingfeng wants?"
Yi Qingfeng whispered in Jiang Chao's ear: "Elder Jiang, this person doesn't look like a traitorous villain, there may be other hidden reasons for working for Ji Peng, if you can make him obedient, it would be a good thing." ”
Fa Yuan saw Yi Qingfeng and Jiang Chao muttering non-stop, and said impatiently: "The surname is Yi, the poor Dao skills are not as good as people and fall into your hands and have nothing to say, I just ask you to give the poor Dao a good time." ”
Yi Qingfeng walked up to him and untied the rope that bound him, then knelt down on one knee and said, "Dao Chief, Yi has offended a lot, and I ask Dao Chief not to be surprised." ”
Fa Yuan was confused and said: "The surname is Yi, which one are you playing, the poor Dao is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, if you want to kill, you have to listen to it." ”
Yi Qingfeng got up and took his hand and said: "The Taoist is really a hero, Yi must not have looked away, presumably the Taoist must have a secret for Ji Peng?"
Fa Yuan sighed and said, "If it weren't for Ji Peng's dog thief who arrested all the disciples under the Poor Dao Seat as a threat, how could the Poor Dao be willing to work for him." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "I see, the Taoist chief was originally coerced, Ji Peng, this dog thief, is really despicable." Dao Leader rest assured, as long as you are willing to submit, Yi guarantees that your disciples will not lose a single cold hair. ”
Fa Yuan said with tears in his eyes: "Thanks to Yi Shaoxia's love, if Fa Yuan is good or bad, and lives up to the good intentions of Shaoxia, it is really inferior to pigs and dogs." Although the young man spoke, the poor man was willing to obey the command of the young man. ”
Yi Qingfeng said happily: "Okay, quickly show the Taoist Chief, from now on the Taoist Chief will be one of us." As he spoke, he made a plan and laid out his plan.
Everyone nodded their heads after hearing this, and then dispersed to prepare.
After everything was ready, according to the plan drawn up by Yi Qingfeng, Xiang Chen, Mu Qianqian, Wu Renliang and a group of soldiers all put on captured enemy uniforms and disguised themselves as enemy troops, while Yi Qingfeng was tied up by the five flowers and held at Fayuan's side, and Fayuan led this disguised army towards Guiye City.
When everyone arrived at the city gate, Fa Yuan shouted, "Quickly open the city gate and let the chief of the road enter." ”
Liao Yuan, who was on the tower of the city, was overjoyed when he saw Fa Yuan returning: "Did the Taoist master capture the prisoner?"
Fa Yuan said: "Exactly, this person is the general of the enemy army, and Poor Dao intends to hand it over to the general to wait for his fate." ”
Liao Yuan did not doubt that he had it, and he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to open the city gate.
Seeing the city gate open, Fa Yuan quickly led Yi Qingfeng and others to rush in.
After Yi Qingfeng entered the city, he immediately ripped off the ropes on his body and opened fire on the enemy troops in the city, while Xiang Chen, Mu Qianqian, Wu Renliang and others also led their subordinates to fight with the enemy army.
The enemy was caught off guard and was killed so much that people turned on their horses and screamed bitterly, Liao Yuan suddenly woke up, and he said angrily: "Fayuan, you bastard, you actually surrendered to the enemy. ”
Fa Yuan snorted coldly: "Dog thief, you detain my disciple and force me to fight, why do you have the face to say such things?"
Liao Yuan was speechless and said angrily: "Okay, it seems that your disciples don't want to live." As he spoke, he unfolded his body and fled towards the barracks.
Yi Qingfeng shouted: "The thief is gone." Saying that, the Great Zhou Tianzhen Qi in his body instantly urged, and swept out like an arrow off the string, and he slapped a fiery red flame towards Liao Yuan's vest between his palms in mid-air.
Liao Yuan sensed the attack coming from behind him, and hurriedly waved the big knife in his hand to meet it, only to see a huge cold light roaring out, and a bang came, and Liao Yuan was slapped by Yi Qingfeng's palm and flew upside down more than ten meters away.
He got up in embarrassment and roared like crazy: "Lao Tzu fought with you." As he spoke, he waved the big knife in his hand and slashed at Yi Qingfeng, only to see powerful cold lights flying out from all directions, rushing towards Yi Qingfeng's whole body.
Yi Qingfeng saw that there was no fear in his eyes, his body rose to the sky, standing proudly in the air, like a god descending from the sky. As a piece of golden light flashed, a fiery red flame that was ten feet high met it with a overwhelming momentum, and a huge explosion sounded coming, and Liao Yuan was so blasted that he vomited blood and fell to the ground.
At this time, a group of enemy troops at the city gate had been wiped out by Xiang Chen, Mu Qianqian, Wu Renliang and others, and everyone continued to kill the city with all their might.
Ji Peng and Zhang Xing, who heard the news, hurriedly led their soldiers and horses to meet the enemy, and when they saw Fa Yuan surrendering to the enemy, Ji Peng was so angry that his face was like gold paper and said: "Fa Yuan, you brute, you have no faith, how can you betray your righteousness and take refuge in the enemy?"
Fa Yuan sneered: "Before General Ji speaks, please think about whether you are qualified to say this, Poor Dao agreed to work for the general just because he was coerced by you, and now Poor Dao has abandoned the secret and turned to Ming, how can he say treachery?"
Xiang Chen on the side said: "Don't talk to him, it's not a pity for these thieves to die for doing a lot of evil, and we will correct them on the spot." As he spoke, he shouted angrily, unfolded his body and turned into a streamer of light and rushed towards Ji Peng.
Zhang Xing saw Xiang Chen rushing over and yelled: "Thief, Hugh is rampant." Saying that, waving a long axe to meet him, Xiang Chen flew in the air with both palms, only to see a lightning impact with the thickness of a bowl mouth slashing at Zhang Xing's head, Zhang Xing didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly raised the long axe to slash out a fierce gang qi to resist, a roar came, and he was hit hard from the horse by the huge energy impact.
Zhang Xing got up in embarrassment and said angrily: "Bastard, Lao Tzu killed you." Saying that, the long axe in his hand waved wildly, only to see countless cold lights flashing, and then a long axe phantom several feet high flew out and slashed towards Xiang Chen's head, Xiang Chen was not to be outdone, and once again shot out a sharp lightning impact between his palms to meet it, only to see a huge lightning quickly hit the long axe phantom that pounced, a loud bang came, the long axe phantom was defeated by lightning, and a huge energy impact hit, and the two were blasted out of a big pit within a radius of several meters. Then Zhang Xing snorted and took a few steps back, and then blood gushed out of his mouth, obviously hurting a lot.
Xiang Chen shouted: "Suffer death." As he spoke, he turned his palm into a knife, and slashed out a cold light and rushed towards Zhang Xing's chest, and Zhang Xing fell to the ground with a scream.
At the same time, under the joint siege of Yi Qingfeng, Mu Qianqian, Wu Renliang, Fa Yuan and others, Ji Peng's soldiers and horses were killed, and more than half of them were killed and injured in a blink of an eye.
Then Jiang Chao led the army into the city and cleaned up the mess.
After nearly two months, Keino City finally fell into the hands of Jiang Chao.
