Chapter 716: Scream
In the main tent of the stockade, there is a huge sand table in the middle, which is the terrain of Yongxi.
Needless to say, this is the White Lotus Sect's high-level deducing the battle situation, but no matter how you deduce it, the result is not so good.
Around the sand table, several men were fiddling with the battle flags above and checking with their companions to see if the information was wrong.
That's right, even if they are outside the pass, they still have their own secret intelligence system, which is an intelligence route that does not need to go through Luoyun Pass.
To put it simply, it is to climb over the Luoyun Mountains, which is extremely difficult and dangerous.
At this time, sitting at the head of the big tent was an old man, who had a white beard and hair, and was wearing a moon-white robe, which at first glance looked like a god in the sky.
But this can only be seen at first glance, because at this time the old man has his hair scattered, and his eyes are full of anger.
This person is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, his big name is Zhang Xianhong, and he is now in his sixties.
And below him, there were two old men standing on the left and right, who were the left and right protectors of the White Lotus Sect.
Zhu Xiuzao, who arrived here in a hurry, although he is also in his forties, is the youngest among the big guys.
At this time, Zhu Xiuzao really regretted it, he shouldn't have come to the ghost place of the White Lotus Sect, these people are too unreliable.
The said vigorous uprising seemed lively at first, but now it is obvious that it has reached the end of the crossbow.
He Zhu Xiuzao came to take advantage of the situation, but now the White Lotus Sect is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect itself.
It's just that Zhu Xiuzao didn't think about it, and the lieutenant general he promised to respond to the call was inconclusive.
Therefore, the White Lotus Sect is now declining, and Zhu Xiuzao is partly responsible, because what he said caused a strategic miscalculation to the White Lotus Sect.
Therefore, in order to protect his father and son, Zhu Xiuzao sent his son out and told the people of the White Lotus Sect that he was going to ask the Hu people to help.
But before Zhu Chengqi left, Zhu Xiuzao whispered to his son in private that he would never come back after he went out.
It can be said that now Zhu Xiuzao is alone, and he can be at ease here.
At this moment, several men who were fiddling with the sand table stopped what they were doing, and one of them said, "Sect Master, it's been set up anew!" ”
When the two Dharma protectors on the left and right heard this, they immediately came forward to check, but the sect advocate Xianhong had no intention of moving.
"You don't have to look at it, what good news can there be?" Zhang Xianhong said in a deep voice, although his voice was small, it had absolute majesty.
The left and right protectors stopped, they actually knew that the general trend had gone, but they were still a little unwilling.
Seeing that his subordinates were worried, Zhang Xianhong continued: "They are all dying, although the hard work of the Northwest Land is wasted, we still have other forces, and they can't hurt our vitality!" ”
On the surface, these words are uplifting, but even Zhang Xianhong himself disagrees with this in his heart.
The situation in the Northwest Land was created by the previous generation of sect masters, and it can be said that half of the resources of the White Lotus Sect were concentrated.
Although there are also White Lotus Sect organizations in other parts of the Ming Dynasty, they don't have much appeal at all, and it can only be said that they have kept a spark.
Now that the Northwest Land is finished, it has actually hurt the vitality of the White Lotus Sect.
And this is still in the case of the imperial court's left and right, and Yongxi has transferred the elite...... It shows that it is more difficult than everyone imagined.
"Lord Wang, your son went to the Hu people to borrow troops, why hasn't there been a result yet, are you going to tease us a second time?" Zhang Xianhong looked at Zhu Xiuzao at this time.
Zhu Xiuzao didn't panic, and said slowly: "Sect Master, the Golden Horde is also fighting in Liangzhou, even if they are willing to cooperate with us, it will take time to draw out troops!" ”
Zhang Xianhong couldn't help but sneer, and then said: "You're not in a hurry at all, it seems that you are putting life and death out of the way!" ”
Zhu Xiuzao sighed and said, "Sect Master, I'm a hard-working person, maybe I'll be liberated if I die!"
He can now be regarded as a wife who has been separated, and the palace has also been copied by Jinyiwei, so everything has been seen.
Now that Zhang Xianhong has already shown his killing intent, if he didn't dare to say it in the past, Zhu Xiuzao can also have the courage to ask this time.
I only heard him say, "Why...... It's to win the ancestral inheritance, to live a personal life, so I plan to make my uncle's rebellion! ”
"Sect Master, you and your subordinates are in trouble, is it also for the dragon chair?" Zhu Xiuzao asked with great concern.
It's not that he looks down on people, the White Lotus Sect is a rabble in his eyes, so he really thinks that these people are toads who want to eat swan meat.
Zhang Xianhong squinted slightly, and after looking at Zhu Xiuzao for a while, he was sure that this person was really letting go, and this guy was very well-behaved in the past.
"What? The people of your Zhu family are destined to be superior? Just look down on us reckless people? Zhang Xianhong sneered.
"Do you know what all of you have been through?"
At this time, I saw Zhang Xianhong stand up and slowly walked towards Zhu Xiuzao.
"Fifty years ago, the old man was still a country boy, and his parents and siblings were all there, but ...... The government expropriated and extorted ......"
In the next story, Zhu Xiuzao didn't need to listen to it to know what was roughly happening, and it turned out that he was not wrong.
Because of the corruption of the government, Zhang Xianhong's family was ruined and joined the White Lotus Sect, and he vowed to overthrow the imperial court.
After listening, Zhu Xiuzao said calmly: "So, now you can kill me, which can be regarded as revenge!" ”
Zhang Xianhong turned around, walked to his position again, and said at the same time: "Forget it, it's too cheap to kill you now!" ”
Indeed, killing Zhu Xiuzao now only takes away a human life, but his identity as a prince can play a greater role.
At the very least, it can also be used to humiliate the Zhu royal family.
After sitting back in his position, Zhang Xianhong said to the left and right protectors: "Go and give orders, let's leave early tomorrow morning and go to the southwest!" ”
"Sect Master, think twice!" One of the Dharma Protectors said.
In any case, the current army in the Church is only showing its decline, and it has not reached the point of exhaustion at all.
Therefore, choosing to give up at this time is very likely to affect the morale of the front, and there is really no hope at that time.
"No need to waste time, useless...... The situation is irreversible! Zhang Xianhong said in a deep voice.
He's the leader, he's the absolute authority, at least in this stockade.
In fact, Zhang Xianhong didn't say everything, and the delicate relationship between him and King Xi was also the inducement for him to make such a decision.
But how can he say these thoughts!
The left and right protectors couldn't change the sect leader's decision, so they could only prepare to go out and give orders.
But at this moment, I only heard two screams outside, as well as the sound of gongs and drums warning me.
"Something's wrong!" These three words popped up in the hearts of everyone in the big tent.
Several men in the big tent immediately escorted Zhang Xianhong, and the two Dharma protectors on the left and right accelerated their pace and rushed out, vowing to see what was happening.
And Zhang Xianhong, who was protected in the middle, had a cloudy face at this time, and then saw him get up again.
"Let's go, go out and have a look!" Zhang Xianhong said coldly.
The sect members who were guarding him didn't dare to mess around, and someone immediately advised: "Sect Master, don't do it!" ”
"What must not? Is it safe to keep this rag in the way? Zhang Xianhong said angrily.
That's really the case, so the sect members had nothing to say, so they could only escort Zhang Xianhong to the outside.
