Chapter 6 Tianzhu (1)

After the battle began, there was a stalemate between the Chinese armies of the two sides. However, the left-wing troops that Daoyan focused on were smoothly inserted between the central army of the Mongol army and the left-wing troops. Borshu's central and left flank forces were forced to move to the left, so that a gap appeared in the camp of the Mongol army. Dao Yan then commanded his troops to attack the gap in an attempt to break through the Mongol camp.

At this time, the cavalry of the Mongol right flank, which had been divided, detoured back to the empty left flank of the Daoyan army, and the cavalry of the Mongol left flank army detoured to the rear of the Daoyan army and attacked its rearguard, while the main force of the Mongol army led by Borshu was squeezed to the left and swirled, and happened to attack the right flank of the Daoyan camp. In this way, the battlefield appeared in which the Mongol army was open in front of the enemy, and the Daoyan army was attacked on three sides.

Although Dao Yan commanded his troops to break through the opposing position, the troops were squeezed in the battle, so they could only continue to advance into the canyon that he had intended to use to stop the Mongol army. At this time, the ambush of the Mongol army suddenly came out of the canyon, and most of Daoyan's troops were killed in this small canyon.

Dao Yan opened his eyes, sat on the ground with a deflated ass, opened the map in his hand, and frowned to redeploy his strategy.

"I've only been a vegetarian for three days, and I want to go to the west? Although this Borshu is not a genius, he is also a famous figure of that era. Boy, don't think that if you win some cats and dogs, you will be invincible. Qi Qi said sarcastically.

"What Lingzun taught is that the disciple remembers." Dao Yan hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"That's all for today." Poor Qi drank.

"Xie Lingzun, the disciple retires." Dao Yan bowed deeply and slowly stepped back.

Since the departure of the Morris father and daughter, Zong Kai still arranged for Dao Yan to be responsible for cleaning the 'Zunsheng Tower'. Dao Yan entered the 'Great Wei Ruyi' every day to learn the battle formation strategy in the illusion created by Qiqi, so as to save himself from the suffering of lovesickness. 'Tai Chi' carries water and grows vegetables every day, and the days are spent in the slow passage of time.

On this day, Dao Yan was preparing breakfast, and suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it was his master Zong Zhen, who had been missing for many years, followed by a young monk who was not good-looking, but his eyes were resolute.

"Master." Dao Yan hurriedly ran over to give a salute.

"Hey, are you cured of your ear disease?" Zong Zhen asked in surprise.

"Well, Master Mo has mixed a dose of elixir and cured his disciple's ear disease." Dao Yan replied.

"I haven't seen you in a few years, but you're a lot stronger." Zong Zhen patted the top of Dao Yan's head lightly and said with relief.

"The master has been gone for many years, and the apprentice misses you very much." Dao Yan said with emotion.

"The master also remembers you very much, come, the master will introduce you to you, this is your Rujing senior brother, the common family name is Hong, the name is Yuanxuan, it is a disciple who was accepted by the master when he was in Diming Temple, he started earlier than you, and he is older than you." Zong Zhen introduced Hong Yuanxuan to Dao Yan.

"Senior brother has seen senior brother." Dao Yan saluted Hong Yuanlu.

"Senior brother doesn't need to be polite, on the way here, the master has already told me a lot about you, but you are not as weak as described, I think you have also practiced hard in the past few years." Hong Yuanxuan said with a kind face.

"My master didn't teach me martial arts, I guess it's because I can hear voices and feel better after my ear disease heals," replied Dao Yan

"Not only are you in good spirits, but your personality is much more cheerful, we have been traveling overnight, and we haven't eaten yet, you go and get some food, and we will talk while eating." Zong Zhen said with a smile.

In the process of chatting, Dao Yan learned that Zong Zhen turned out to be the world-famous 'Peng Monk' in the rebel army rumored by the people in the streets and alleys - Peng Yingyu, every time the uprising failed, he turned into a monk to find a temple to take refuge, and waited for the opportunity to organize an uprising again after the limelight passed. The purpose of their visit was to assassinate an important official of the imperial court, and according to the information they received, the official would go to the underground palace of the 'Zunsheng Tower' tonight to do an important business. They planned to lay an ambush here, and later they would be joined by someone from another group of rebels to work together to complete the matter. After eating, since the rendezvous had not yet come, Peng Yingyu went to rest and recharge for the evening's actions. In the process of talking, Dao Yan found that although this senior brother was thin and mediocre, he had great ambitions and thoughtful thoughts, not at all like a monk, like a heroic character, Dao Yan couldn't help but have a kind of respect for Hong Yuanxuan from the bottom of his heart. It was almost noon when two men from another group of rebels arrived, and they were delayed for a moment because they needed to find weapons from the local rebels. After introducing each other, Dao Yan knew that among the two, the man who was close in age to the master was named Xu Zhenyi, and the younger one named Ni Manzi was Xu Zhenyi's disciple, and they were both White Lotus Sect members. After inspecting the weapon, Hong Yuanxuan introduced the situation inside and outside the tower that he knew before, and led the two of them to go around inside and out with Peng Yingyu, and then told everyone about his assassination plan, and everyone thought it was feasible. So it was decided that Peng Yingyu and Xu Zhenyi would lie in ambush in the dungeon, and assassinate the target after entering the dungeon, and Hong Yuanxuan and Ni Manzi hid in the tower with strong bows, so as not to escape from the dungeon by the target, and provided cover for retreat afterwards. After the discussion, when everyone was preparing separately, Xu Zhenyi came to find Peng Yingyu.

"Master Peng, there is one thing I have some concerns about." Xu Zhen is together.

"Mr. Xu, please speak." Peng Yingyu said.

"Is your apprentice Dao Yan a member of the Rebels?" Xu Zhenyi asked.

"No, he was an orphan I adopted during my refuge in the White Pagoda Temple, and he was weak and sick since he was a child, but he was only taken as an apprentice, and he was never allowed to join the rebels. Mr. Xu has something to say. Peng Yingyu said.

"Master Peng, with all due respect, for the sake of prudence, can you let him ambush in the underground palace with the two of us." Xu Zhen said in a deep voice.

Peng Yingyu knew that Xu Zhenyi couldn't believe it, and he was afraid that he would leak the news, although he was angry in his heart, he couldn't refuse, so he had to nod and agree.

After letting 'Taiji' hide in the 'Phoenix Well', Dao Yan returned to the tower and entered the underground palace with Peng Yingyu and Xu Zhenyi.

After a long time, Zong Kai walked into the tower with the military general who came here a few years ago to send 'Dawei Ruyi'.

"Daoyan, Daoyan... This wild boy doesn't know where to run and be lazy. Zong Kai shouted twice, but seeing that no one answered, he cursed in a low voice and lit the oil lamp.

The military general went down to the underground palace alone, and when he opened the door lock, he found that the mark left by the year had disappeared, so he shouted: "Abbot". At this moment, he saw a flash of cold light, and the military general hurriedly dodged sideways, and a sharp arrow trembled and nailed its tail feathers to the door of the underground palace next to his face.

"There are assassins." The general shouted, and his face was marked with blood by an arrow.

"There is not enough success, and there are more failures." After seeing Ni Manzi ruining the entire plan due to nervousness, Hong Yuanqi immediately got up and jumped out of the tower with Ni Manzi's back collar in tow.

The door of the underground palace suddenly opened, and Peng Yingyu rushed out, but she was immediately hit by an arrow in her leg. As soon as Xu Zhen saw the situation, he waved his steel knife and slashed at Dao Yan, and shouted viciously: "It was you who asked that beast to report the letter to Yuan Bing, see that I don't kill you." Dao Yan was shocked, seeing that the steel knife was about to be avoided, and hurriedly put his hand into the iron box in a hurry. Xu Zhen was at a loss when he saw Dao Yan disappearing without a trace like a ghost, and after hearing Peng Yingyu's shout, he had to turn around and wave a steel knife and rush towards the outside of the underground palace.
