Zeng Dong and Ning Buxiu not only have no friendship, but it can be said that there is a lot of trouble between the two. When the Yan Kingdom fell, Zeng Dong was the main force of Yan Felling. Now that Ning Buqu is willing to let Zeng Dong land from Penglai, and Zeng Dong can help Ning Buqu block Sun Zhongmou, it seems that the person behind this is not simple. Deng Yuanjue muttered to himself while thinking deeply.

"Could it be that Jiang Huanyan is really not dead?" Zhou Yunjing suddenly had a chill down his spine, among all the generals in the tent, only he really saw Jiang Huanyan's power. And apart from Jiang Huanyan, he couldn't imagine that there was anyone else who could have such a ability.

Deng Yuanjue shook his head: "I also suspected that Jiang Huanyan was manipulating behind his back at first, but it is impossible to think about it, Ning Buqu and him have an indirect vendetta against killing their father, the possibility of the two cooperating is too small, and I can also conclude that Jiang Huanyan is dead." ”

"Who the hell is that? Although Tian Wuji also has this ability, he is the same as Jiang Huanyan, and it is impossible for Ning Unyielding to cooperate with him. As for Jiang Huanchu, he has been busy recruiting troops in Kaifeng recently, how can he still have the energy to take time out to plan such a big game of chess. As for our Great Song Dynasty, Yan Da Sima was preparing to send troops to attack Jining in Liaocheng, and it didn't seem like he did it. Wu Teng analyzed all the people he could think of.

Deng Yuanjue was silent for a while and said, "There is another person that we have all overlooked, and that is the Tianluo Sect that has risen recently. ”

"Tianluo Sect?" Everyone was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's them, because they have been under the guise of the Jianghu sect, so we haven't paid attention to them subconsciously. Looking back now, they have only been active on the mainland for only three years, and they already have Xichuan and Yungui, and have occupied most of the Qin State, how can this be done by ordinary Jianghu sects? Deng Yuanjue concluded.

"Ten years ago, the lord of the castle, Shigeharu Takenaka, uncharacteristically began to expand abroad, annexing Osumi Island, Daito Island, and Sakishima Island successively, and then unified the entire Ryukyu Islands. Since then, overseas trade has been expanded, and now it has influence in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and even the Indian Ocean. "Among the generals, only Lei Zhengming was stationed in Xiakou, and he heard Xun Yuqing and Yue Shouming occasionally talk about some overseas things.

"So, this mysterious Tianluo Sect Leader may be the city lord of Naha City, Shigeji Takenaka? It is also possible for them to take advantage of the turmoil in the five countries on the mainland to march into the Central Plains. Wu Teng inferred.

Deng Yuanjue shook his head: "You are wrong, the Tianluo Sect did not rise in Naha City, before they went to Naha, I had heard of this sect, speaking of which, the place where they established the sect was still within the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, have you heard of Changxing Island?" ”

Back then, Shi Luosheng established the Tianluo Sect on Changxing Island under the guise of Xiao Yan, although very few people knew about it, but Deng Yuanjue had heard of it, but he didn't know that this force also had a name called the Tianluo Sect.

Later, with Shi Luosheng's fake death and going overseas, and then the rise of the Tianluo Sect in Naha, he had to suspect that there was some connection between the two.

"Changxing Island? Isn't that always occupied by pirates, and they actually have something to do with the Tianluo Sect? The generals were a little surprised.

"When Jiang Huanyan led the army to attack Penglai of Yan State, Luosheng once united several pirates in the Xianghu Sea to come to the rescue, and finally not only repelled the Qi army, but even the four pirates were integrated. Among them, Li Zhixi of Boracay Island was exterminated, Huang Songsheng of Xiachuan Island surrendered to our Great Song Dynasty, Niu Qingyuan of Shangchuan Island surrendered to Yan State, and only one Changxing Island remained independent. With the means of ascension, how could he be left alone? "During the period when Deng Yuanjue pretended to be sick, because he couldn't leave the camp, he had a lot of time to calm down and summarize the gains and losses over the years, including a lot of things about Shi Luosheng and Changxing Island.

"Is the Great General suspecting that the Tianluo Sect has something to do with Falling Ascension? But he died with Xiang Tong more than ten years ago. Wu Teng's heartbeat increased a little, and he vaguely sensed something.

"Has anyone seen the death of the ascension? The few bodies found at that time, including Xiang Tong, were all unrecognizable, and we only judged from their clothing and the items they carried with them that they were them. ”

"So it's possible that they're not dead?" After speaking, Wu Teng immediately shook his head again: "Impossible, if Xiang Tong hadn't died, he wouldn't have watched the decline of the Chu State and ignored it, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was because of his death that the current situation on the mainland was caused." ”

"What if only Xiang Tongzhan died in that battle, and Luo Sheng, Zixuan, including Wang Lun, were all alive?" Deng Yuanjue asked again.

Zhou Yunjing, Lei Zhengming, Wu Shuang and others all joined Deng Yuanjue's army later, and they only heard of Shi Luosheng, and they didn't know him very well.

But Wu Teng and Deng Wenhao fought side by side with him back then, although they all said that Shi Luosheng was not as good as Deng Yuanjue, but deep down they still faintly felt that Shi Luosheng's wisdom was not under Deng Yuanjue.

If the outcome of the first battle of that year was Shi Luosheng's defeat of the Chu army, and he returned with all the battles, they would not be surprised at all. But the same ending was revealed ten years later, which made it a little difficult for them to accept, after all, it was something they had believed in for ten years.

Deng Yuanjue saw that they still didn't believe it, and said: "Don't forget that the head of the Tianluo Sect in Rongcheng is called Shi Pre, I thought it was a guy with the same name and surname, but now it seems that this Tianluo Sect's Shi Pre is the Shi Pre who was a staff member under my account back then." ”

Now everyone in the mainland knows that Shi Yu, Yang Yi and Zu Qingzhi are the three giants of the Tianluo Sect, and the next one is Gao Kegong. As for Ling Zhen, because he has been guarding the southwest in the past few years, he has hardly fought a war, so he is not known to outsiders, otherwise Deng Yuanjue would not have to suspect that Shi Yu has the same name as others.

"If the Tianluo Sect really has something to do with Luosheng, then why did he let Ning Buqu's troops come to our Jizhou County?" Although Wu Teng believed it a little, he still didn't understand why he wanted to go against his side.

Deng Yuanjue smiled, the relationship between him and Shi Luosheng had long been provoked by Xiao Daocheng, leaving an irreparable rift, not to mention that he had ulterior motives for accepting Shi Luosheng as a righteous son.

Shi Luosheng and Deng Yuanjue are both political careerists, the former can't believe that the latter will be generous because of Xiao Daocheng and not anger himself, and the latter also because he doubted the former's position between the family and the royal family, so he didn't dare to trust him absolutely, resulting in the relationship between the two forever irreparable.

"I heard that Xiao Yan ceded Jeju County to the Tianluo Sect in exchange for an alliance between the two. Maybe it was because of this that the Tianluo Sect let Ning Buqu go all the way north. ”

After speaking, Deng Yuanjue sighed again: "Regardless of whether the Tianluo Sect is related to the ascension or not, there will always be a battle between us and him. Although we now have the upper hand over Xiao Yan, the overall situation is still unfavorable to us, Yan Chixing has sent troops from Liaocheng, leaving Wu Changchen to garrison Yanzhou. Jiang Huan Chu, Tian Wuji, Xiang Chu and Xiao Yan also reached a verbal alliance, once Ning Buqu invaded our Jizhou, then they would not hesitate to send troops, and then we may have to face the Sixth Route Army at the same time, everyone must be mentally prepared. ”

"General, the last general asked to go to Rongcheng to envoy Tianluo Sect, to see if this stone is the one we know, if they really have something to do with Luosheng, the last general must find a way to persuade them to withdraw from the army." Wu Teng asked himself that he had a good relationship with Shi Luosheng and others back then, but now that the situation is delicate, he wants to try to convince the other party.

Deng Yuanjue thought for a while and said, "Your proposal can be tried, but now is the critical moment of attacking Yuzhou, you can't leave for the time being, let's let Master Ding and Senior Brother Lin go." The other party is nominally only a martial arts sect, and letting Ding go out is considered equal status. ”

Although Wu Teng is the number one person under Deng Yuanjue, he is also a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and it is not easy to insist on anything when he hears this arrangement.

Soon Ding Jiaxuan and Lin Wenying came to the camp, and after Deng Yuanjue finished the task, he said to the two of them: "You go to Rongcheng this time, if Shi Yu is willing to see you, of course it is the best, even if you can't see him, you have to find a way to confirm whether he is the chief staff member under my account back then." ”

Before Ding Jiaxuan could speak, Lin Wenying said disapprerovingly: "Don't worry, senior brother, this Shi is not skilled in martial arts, even if he refuses to see us, I will sneak into his mansion and meet him." ”

Deng Yuanjue shook his head: "In Rongcheng, the strength of the Tianluo Sect is unfathomable, three years ago, they united with the Tianqi Sect to besiege Tianzhu Peak, and even Shen Nanxing, the first person in the martial arts, was defeated under the hands of the Sect Master Zu Qingzhi. The Hidden Star Sect has also been co-opted by the Tianluo Sect, and now they are masters in the sect, and they can even fight against the entire martial arts, so you must not conflict with each other when you go. ”

Ding Jiaxuan nodded, he had also heard about the things on Tianzhu Peak, and he just took this opportunity to take this opportunity to see it.

In Jeju City, Guo Xu and Xun Yuqing were worried about whether to join the Tianluo Sect.

Liu Zixuan has been here for half a month, and Guo Xu has been entertained with good wine and food these days, but he has always refused to express his position in the face of key issues.

It's not that he has an opinion about Shi Luosheng hiding from him and fleeing overseas by faking his death, nor does he want to make political speculation between Shi Luosheng and Deng Yuanjue, but purely because he has friendships with both sides, and it is difficult to choose between them.

Xun Yuqing has similar thoughts to him, but he prefers Shi Luosheng a little more.

The reason why the two are together now is because Liu Zixuan told them that Shi Luosheng would come to Jeju in person in two days.

They can drag on in the face of Liu Zixuan, but if Shi Luosheng comes in person, they must make a clear statement. Besides, the current Jeju County, Emperor Song has clearly ceded it to the Tianluo Sect, and it is not appropriate for him to occupy other people's territory all the time.
