Chapter 44: The Seizure of Military Power

Yan Qinghan and they took the soldiers and horses all the way to stop and stop, Lu Yan didn't know how many times he asked the repair team to repair, it was obvious that he was deliberately delaying time, Mu Sheng was already anxious about the situation in Dongchuan, but now that she was procrastinating, she was even more anxious, and finally when Lu Yan wanted to stop and rest again, Mu Sheng couldn't bear it anymore.

"General Lu, we were originally able to leave the territory of the Ten Thousand Dynasty at noon, but now that the time has passed, we haven't left the country yet, as a general who has led troops for many years, can you not stand it like this?"

Lu Yan didn't take Mu Sheng in his eyes at all, even if he knew that Mu Sheng was arranged by his aunt to go with him, but how could she look down on Lu Yan like this.

"It's because Ben will lead the troops for many years, so he knows that the soldiers and horses need to have sufficient physical strength, otherwise when they arrive in Dongchuan, where will they have the strength to fight, how can they understand this."

"You!" Mu Sheng was angry for a while and no longer paid attention to him.

Yan Qinghan also noticed that since he left the palace and out of Wanchao City, Lu Yan's true face has become more and more obvious, and he must have expected that he would not dare to do anything with him, so it would be like this.

"General Lu, what Mu Zhaoyi said is right, Zhaoyi is still full of physical strength, and she is a soldier who has been on the battlefield for many years, how can her body be so fragile."

"Since the emperor has said so, the whole team will set off, otherwise it is really not as good as a weak woman." Seeing that Yan Qinghan opened his mouth, Lu Yan gave orders with reluctance.

So the team set off again.

And Xiaoyi and the others, who had already rushed to the territory of the Wan Dynasty, had been in ambush here for a long time, seeing that Yan Qinghan and they had not arrived for a long time, Xiaoyi guessed that Lu Yan was deliberately embarrassed on the road.

"Master, the sun is about to set, when will the emperor's team arrive?"

Xiao Yi naturally knew that he was waiting like this, and the disciples were also very tired, after all, they arrived here late yesterday night and began to set up an ambush formation.

"Let all the disciples rest and adjust here first, and go to the front for the teacher to investigate, and remember to stay where they are and not expose their whereabouts." Xiaoyi advised.

"Yes, Master, disciple remember."

After settling the disciples, Xiaoyi left to investigate.

Xiaoyi walked not far forward, he listened to the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps not far away, it seemed that Yan Qinghan Musheng and they were already out of the Wanchao Territory, not far from him, he quickly returned to the ambush site.

"The emperor is out of the territory of the Wan Dynasty, and we are only a few hundred miles away from Dongchuan, so why don't you go to the front and let the soldiers rest for a while?"

Yan Qinghan looked at the direction that Lu Yan was pointing, and it was estimated that he would be able to reach the place where Xiaoyi and them were ambushed in a short time, since this Lu Yan said it himself, he didn't need to bother anymore, and responded casually: "Okay, it's better to go forward, there are more open spaces there." ”

Seeing that Yan Qinghan agreed so happily, Lu Yan felt a burst of happiness in his heart, he thought that Yan Qinghan knew that he had been out of the Ten Thousand Dynasty, and his situation was more dangerous, so he would be so obedient to himself.

Then, Lu Yan rode his horse and sped up his speed, while Yan Qinghan retreated to Mu Sheng's side and stood side by side with her.

"Not far away, your master and they have been in ambush here for a long time, as long as Lu Yan appears, they will make a move."

Mu Sheng nodded, and the two of them sped up and followed.

After Xiaoyi returned, he alerted the disciples and waited for the arrival of Yan Qinghan and the others.

At this time, Lu Yan didn't know that he was walking into the trap set for him step by step.

There was no sound on the open road in the mountains except for the sound of neat footsteps and horses' hooves.

Lu Yan always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't think of what was wrong.

Yan Qinghan and Mu Sheng's hearts were also very nervous at this time, getting closer and closer, closer and closer to their plan.

The wind blows, and the dust is rolled up. Lu Yan seemed to sense the unusual movement in the valley, and he stopped his horse and stopped moving.

"General Lu, why don't you leave?" Yan Qinghan's voice became cold, and he asked in a solemn voice.

"Your Majesty, the last general feels that something is wrong." Lu Yan turned his horse to look at Yan Qinghan, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

A sneer flashed on Yan Qinghan's lips, and he said quietly, "What's wrong?" This is the burial place I have carefully chosen for you! ”

Instead, Mu Sheng pulled out the flowing water hidden in his waist and went around behind Lu Yan, although Lu Yan was surrounded by the two of them, his face still did not change.

"What does the emperor mean by this?" Lu Yan looked at Mu Sheng behind him in surprise, and there was a little mockery in his tone.

"Knowingly ask!" With that, Mu Sheng flew up directly from the horse and stabbed at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan bent down and dodged Mu Sheng's long sword.

Mu Sheng rushed directly past him and stood in the same direction as Yan Qinghan.

And the 20,000 soldiers and horses behind them, before they could figure out what the situation was, a group of white-robed disciples rushed out of the woods and valleys on both sides and rushed straight towards them.

A battle unfolds in this open field.

Yan Qinghan took out his sword and rushed directly towards Lu Yan, who also drew his sword and used it to defend against the attack.

The two of them rose from their horses and spun down in the air, landing on the ground.

Lu Yan looked at Mu Sheng and Yan Qinghan in front of him, and laughed fiercely, "Does the emperor think that with your ability, you can beat me?" ”

"Megalomania!" Xiao Yi appeared behind Lu Yan at some point, and attacked him several meters away with one palm.

Lu Yan slashed the ground with his sword and retreated, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Phew! It's up to you to do it! Lu Yan said and rushed straight to Xiaoyi.

Mu Sheng has always been around Yan Qinghan, repelling the soldiers who attacked them.

Yan Qinghan had no military power, so these soldiers naturally would not obey him, and when they saw Lu Yan being attacked, they became the targets of these soldiers.

At this moment, the sword qi attacked people, and the heaven and earth were full of desolation and murder.

Yan Qinghan slashed one soldier after another in front of him, blood falling from the sword body, and the smell of blood suddenly spread.

In a blink of an eye, seeing that Xiaoyi and Lu Yan were still fighting, Yan Qinghan rushed towards the two,

"Go help Mu Sheng!" Yan Qinghan shouted to Xiaoyi.

Xiaoyi saw that Mu Sheng was besieged and went straight to Mu Sheng.

Lu Yan and Yan Qinghan flashed the sword light in their wrists at the same time, and flew into the wind where the other party was, only to hear the shattered cold light flashing in front of them, Lu Yan turned his arm, and the sword actually spun between his fingers, stirring the sound that diffused in the sky and fell, almost stirring Yan Qinghan's hand into it. Yan Qinghan let go of his hand and shook the end of the sword with his internal force, defusing Lu Yan's attack.

Seeing this, Lu Yan didn't expect Yan Qinghan to have such a strong internal force, and he was slightly stunned.

Then, the two of them jumped up again in unison, jumping between the dust, and the sword qi of both of them had reached the limit of collapse.

The battle, so fast that they could only hear, quickly exhausted their lightning speed. Finally, Lu Yan was suddenly shocked and fell to his knees, blood gushing out of the corners of his lips, while Yan Qinghan stood firmly, looking at him with melancholy and indifference.

Immediately, he used his long sword against Lu Yan's neck.

He said coldly: "Lu Yan, you don't really want to lose your life here, do you!" ”

"Hahaha, there are only a few thousand people, and you want to compete with 20,000 soldiers and horses, Yan Qinghan, you can't help but be too confident!" Lu Yan looked up at Yan Qinghan fiercely, still arrogant.

Yan Qinghan frowned slightly, he didn't expect this Lu Yan to be so blind and not cry.

And Mu Sheng and Xiaoyi were still struggling to resist and fight, but the disciples in the door fell one after another, Mu Sheng looked at the corpses lying all over the ground, and his heart was bitter.

Life that was alive not long ago can only turn into dust and merge with the earth.

"Be careful!" Mu Sheng was distracted, and a soldier took advantage of her unpreparedness to go towards her, Xiaoyi's voice was eager and worried.

Mu Sheng raised his arm and knocked down the sword in the soldier's hand, and stabbed him in the abdomen, and the man was lifeless.

Xiaoyi saw that she was fine, so she breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards her, "What are you thinking about at this time!?" Almost had an accident! Although there was reproach in Xiaoyi's tone, his face was worried.

"It's nothing, our people can't hold on, there are too many of them."

No matter how powerful a few thousand people are, they can't withstand a few attacks on one.

"Your general has been captured, and you still don't stop!" Yan Qinghan shouted loudly.

"Leave us alone, kill them all, and leave no one behind!" Lu Yan's voice sounded, and the soldiers who had stopped killing again as soon as they heard Lu Yan's order.

"Yan Qinghan, I have a talisman in my hand, they won't listen to you, even if you are an emperor and don't have military power in your hands, what's the use!?" Lu Yan knew that Yan Qinghan had no way to take him, as long as he didn't hand over the military power, it would be impossible for him to kill him.

"Do you really think so?"

Not long after Yan Qinghan's words fell, Qi Guang rushed over from not far away with a group of soldiers and horses, a full 40,000 elite soldiers, even if they were dead, they could carry it down.

Seeing Qi Guang's figure, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, there was hope, this time there was really hope.

"You!? How so!? When Lu Yan saw Qi Guang, his face was shocked.

He knew that Qi Guang was Yan Qinghan's henchman, so before he set off yesterday, he found someone to drug Qi Guang's food and locked him up, as long as Yan Qinghan was without Qi Guang, he would no longer have a credible person by his side, and his plan would naturally not be able to carry out.

Obviously, yesterday he saw that Qi Guang had been locked in a secret prison by him, why did he appear here with soldiers and horses now!?

"Isn't it incredible, do you think that little trick you came up with, we won't be able to guess?"

Yan Qinghan said sarcastically.

With Qi Guang's support, 20,000 soldiers and horses were quickly defeated, and Lu Yan saw that his defeat was decided, although he was still unwilling in his heart, he couldn't resist.

"It doesn't matter, if you don't plan to hand over the military power, I will kill you, and then return to the Wan Dynasty, and then say that General Lu was attacked by ambushes and sacrificed to protect me, and the queen mother will not do anything with me."

Even if Lu Yan is sincere to Lu Lan, but let him pay for his life to this extent, Lu Yan still won't do it, as Yan Qinghan said, if he hands over the military power at this time, there is still a way to live, if he would rather die than hand it over, he will die horizontally and vertically, and he will be unlucky no matter how he thinks about it.

After figuring it out, Lu Yan immediately changed his face, and looked at Yan Qinghan with a begging for mercy and fearful expression: "Your Majesty, the last general is confused and loyal to the wrong lord, and the last general will hand over the talisman and military power in his hand, and ask the emperor to spare the last general this time!" ”

After that, he took out the talisman from his arms and handed it to Yan Qinghan.

Yan Qinghan took the talisman and showed a satisfied expression.

Then he kicked Lu Yan to the ground and ordered: "The soldier is here, and all the soldiers will obey my orders from now on." Let me suppress this traitor and wait for him to fall. ”

Hearing Yan Qinghan's order, everyone stopped fighting, and when they saw the talisman in Yan Qinghan's hand, the soldiers put down the long swords in their hands one after another, knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "You all listen to the emperor's orders!" ”

Mu Sheng and the others also showed a relieved expression, Xiaoyi's move really came true, although he sacrificed the lives of nearly half of the disciples in the sect, but this vicious battle was finally won.
