Chapter 27 Mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village
(7,000 words)
A thunderclap sounded in the sky, and the crackling sound exploded in Cui Linglong's heart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoThe sky has become gloomy at some point, and the dark clouds are like ocean waves, wave after wave, and like a frightened flock of sheep on the grassland, rushing in panic. A flash of lightning swept under the dark clouds, like a nightmare that woke people up in the middle of the night, and the bright light was like a sharp sword, slashing down on the head, reflecting Cui Linglong's pale face.
The Luming Temple on the mountain was originally a pure place for Buddhism, but at this moment, it is like a gate of hell that needs to be opened above the temple.
In the afternoon, the courtyard was dim, the wind rose from the ground, the sky and the earth changed color, and there seemed to be King Kong angry eyes and Bodhisattva low eyebrows in the sky.
The small temple in the lonely mountain is so humble, with a seven-foot body, what a different ant.
With a bang, Zhao Xiangyao pulled out the knife out of the sheath, the sound of metal friction was short and urgent, the cold light flashed away, and when he slashed at Cui Linglong, lightning was falling behind him, and the outline of his long hair dancing in the wind was as clear as a knife carving.
Cui Linglong screamed violently, pulled out and hurriedly retreated, escaped behind the Dark Tiger Killer, drew a knife in front of him, and shouted loudly: "I don't believe it! β
The courtyard was not wide, and at this time, more than a dozen people on each side poured into it, which immediately made the space extremely cramped. For the officers and men in the army, they are accustomed to fighting in formation, and the narrow terrain does not restrict their movements, but for the MI and the Dark Tiger Killer, without shields, iron armor, and no space to move, the fight immediately seems bloody and cruel.
Just one face, someone on both sides fell under each other's knives and fell in a pool of blood.
Zhao Xiangyao ran forward with a knife, swinging his blade like lightning, and before the Dark Tiger Killer in front of him could react, the long knife stabbed into the opponent's chest, and the blood-stained blade was exposed from the opponent's back.
There is hardly a more eye-catching object in the world.
Zhao Xiangyao pushed the Dark Tiger Killer forward two steps, crashing into the opponent's formation, and when he drew the knife, blood splattered several feet, leaving a dazzling scarlet on his face.
Zhao Xiang smiled fiercely: "I don't want you to believe it, I just want your life!" β
With a bang, a bell rang from the temple, and the Sanskrit sound echoed. I don't know who pushed the firing pin at this time.
Cui Linglong hurriedly looked around, but saw that there were also killers on both sides who were fighting outside the courtyard, and everywhere near and far, whether it was a quiet and peaceful path, a stone step that did not stir up dust, or a solemn and sacred Buddhist shrine, it was stained with hot and humid blood.
In a critical situation, although Cui Linglong was anxious, she did not make a big mess, she raised her knife and turned back to meet Zhao Xiangyao, "I don't believe you can kill me!" I don't believe in you more than I am! β
Whoever kills the deer has to fight to find out.
Zhao Xiangyao lowered his body to avoid the flat slash of the dark tiger killer on the side, his steps were slightly wrong, he approached the other party closely, and the horizontal knife pierced the opponent's lower abdomen, and the blood in the abdomen flowed out like a gurgling stream along the bloodletting groove on the knife body.
Twisting his wrist, the blade of the knife stirred in the opponent's abdomen, and then pulled out the horizontal knife, and immediately blood splattered five steps, and the liver and sausage spilled. Zhao Xiangyao stepped forward and raised his knife to slash at Cui Linglong, without saying a word, the blade was already close to Cui Linglong's forehead.
The Dark Tiger Killer screamed and threw away his long knife, his face full of horror, he clutched his abdomen, but he couldn't stop the blood from flowing out of his intestines. He fell to the ground, scarlet blood gushing out of his mouth, he opened his mouth and screamed, desperately stuffing his liver and sausage into his stomach, but he became weaker and weaker.
I don't know who it was, moving his feet in the fight, stepping on the killer's hands and his intestines, the sound of the chirp made people want to be sick, and the intestines burst, and the filth inside squeezed out, and there was still heat.
Probably because the liver sausage was too slippery, the foot stepped on the intestines and rubbed them on the ground a few times, almost rubbing the intestines into the dirt.
The killer looked at his trampled liver sausage, his eyes were suddenly full of despair and horror, his eyes turned upwards and stared at the person in front of him in a daze, trying his best to speak, but he couldn't make a sound, his stiff expression, full of resentment towards the world.
The small pavilion in the courtyard, in the face of the rolling clouds and fierce killing, looked extremely small and pitiful, like a cat shivering in the cold winter.
Zhao Xiangyao and Cui Linglong fought together, the two of them were almost the same, and they shot mercilessly, and after a while, there were a few more wounds on their bodies.
There was an indiscernible sound, the clothes were cut by the blade, the incisions could not be more neat, the rolled muscles began to turn white, like sponges, and after a while the blood oozed out, and the outflow of blood was out of control, and it flowed down the limbs, falling to the ground little by littleβor being dropped by the limbs.
The clothes were soaked one by one.
Both of them have gone crazy, and under the stimulation of pain and blood, they forget everything, only remember to kill the person in front of them, and use all means to add a few more wounds to each other's body before they fall.
If the devil sees two people with long hair dancing wildly, their eyes bloodshot, and their crazy expressions, they must retreat.
It's just that at this moment, there is no Buddha to cross them.
In the face of the crazy killing, the Buddha in the temple could not protect himself.
A place of purity, no more purity.
People who have no reason to speak of need faith.
......
In the end, Cui Linglong fell.
Several long knives with blood were placed around her neck.
In the courtyard, the corpses were scattered all over the place, and the dry dirt floor had already been soaked with blood, and there was no one standing in front of him.
Zhao Xiangyao spat blood on the ground, and looked down at Cui Linglong, "It's so fucking ruthless!" β
"If you have the ability, you will kill me!" Cui Linglong, who was still boiling with blood, screamed at the neck, not caring that because of this action, a few thin cuts were cut out of the neck by the blade.
"The loser is not qualified to make a claim." Zhao Xiangyao laughed.
Because of the bruises all over his body, he looked ragged, and his long hair was scattered in a disorderly manner, Cui Linglong's eyes shot a resentful light, staring at Zhao Xiangyao, eager to bite him to pieces.
Zhao Xiangyao looked at Cui Linglong, with a hint of appreciation for the masterpiece in his eyes, "If you are willing to let the people of the Dark Tiger put down their blades, I can bandage your wounds and spare your life!" β
"Don't you think about it!" Cui Linglong let out a terrible howl, the loud sound made the eardrums uncomfortable, and at this time when defeat meant nothing, she could only use the loudest voice to express her hostility and cover up the fear in her heart.
Zhao Xiangyao waved his hand and instructed the sharp soldiers of the Military Intelligence Department: "Go, pass my order, and those who surrender will not be killed." β
Inside and outside the temple, the manpower of the military intelligence department is not much different from that of the Dark Tiger, and after the Dark Tiger Killer knew that Cui Linglong had been captured, although there was sporadic resistance, most of them still chose to lay down their weapons.
"Gather the Dark Tiger Killers in one place." Under Zhao Xiangyao's order, one hundred and ten dark tigers were gathered in the open space in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and around them were the sharp soldiers of the military intelligence department who were holding swords.
Zhao Xiangyao took Cui Linglong here, glanced at those dark tiger killers, and suddenly raised his hand, the male duck's voice was calm at this moment, "Kill, don't leave a single one!" β
At the sound of an order, one hundred and ten Dark Tiger Killers all died. Occasionally, those who fled and resisted were immediately surrounded by the sharp men of the Military Intelligence Department and hacked to death with knives.
Cui Linglong saw this scene, her eyes were split, these were the elites she had cultivated at a great price, and she died like this, she couldn't help but roar at Zhao Xiangyao, "You mad dog, you said that those who descend will not be killed!" β
Zhao Xiangyao glanced at Cui Linglong coldly, and said indifferently: "This is the boundary of Xiazhou, not Lingzhou, what reason do I have to keep them?" It's war! β
......
Cui Linglong didn't expect the fifth girl to appear in Luming Temple.
The dark clouds passed through and disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the rain only fell a few times, and even the ground was not completely wet.
The bright red dress was sitting on the stone steps in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and when Cui Linglong looked at the fifth girl, she could see the huge Buddha statue behind her.
When the MI Department killed the Dark Tiger, the fifth girl had already appeared, and she sat on the stone steps and watched quietly, until the corpse was carried away one by one, and she still did not say a word.
The sporadic rain did not wash away the smell of blood, but only made it stronger.
Cui Linglong sat on the ground, not afraid of the slight dampness of the ground. She had calmed down, she knew what she was going to face next, but she didn't seem to be afraid.
"I don't understand." Cui Linglong looked at the fifth girl.
The fifth girl rested her elbows on her knees and rested her chin on the back of her hands, which made her look a little less murderous, but enough to be a warrior, "I understood everything you said. β
"It turns out that you were already in Luming Temple at that time." Cui Linglong was stunned.
"I'm here before you." The fifth girl said.
"The little girl likes to hide and listen to people." Cui Linglong scoffed.
"People who are old don't like to admit their failures." The fifth girl didn't move.
The corners of Cui Linglong's mouth twitched, but in the end, she didn't continue to argue with the fifth girl, and instead said, "I think my plan is seamless. β
The fifth girl said, "A seamless plan will not fail. β
Cui Linglong said: "What's the problem? β
The fifth girl said: "No problem is a problem." β
Cui Linglong thought for a moment, "You mean, all of General Yang's actions are too reasonable?" β
The fifth girl said, "If the trap is not disguised and is no different from the flat ground, no one will step into it." β
Cui Linglong sneered: "Since there is no difference, it should not be suspected. β
The fifth girl said: "It's not that there are no doubts, but it makes you feel that we don't have doubts." β
Cui Linglong was stunned, and then became angry, "How could I be deceived by you?" β
The fifth girl said, "If you had not been deceived by us, you would not have fallen into our hands. β
Cui Linglong shouted: "You don't want to insult my wisdom!" β
The fifth girl said: "There are doubts, but do not show doubts, only in this way will the opponent be defenseless, and you can find more suspicions." If more suspicions are revealed, it means that the suspicions are corroborated. On the contrary, to be suspicious from the outset, to be alerted by the opponent, is not cleverness, but stupidity. β
Cui Lingling sneered: "Just because of a suspicion, I hid hundreds of soldiers in Luming Temple, and you came here in person?" Are you too idle? β
The fifth girl said, "That's another question. β
Cui Linglong sneered again: "It's not necessary to be tricky at this time, right?" β
The fifth girl's gaze always moved forward, not deliberately falling on Cui Linglong, she said: "If you really want to use the fact that the Military Intelligence Department and General Yang are trading news to arrest some Military Intelligence Department personnel and make some so-called contributions, you don't have to go to Changze County." β
Cui Linglong said: "If you act in Xiazhou City, I'm afraid you won't dare." β
The fifth girl said: "You have thought so well for us, obviously you are worried that we will not take the bait." β
Cui Linglong said: "If you don't take the bait, I will naturally not be able to catch you." β
The fifth girl said: "It takes so much thought, but it is only for the capture of some MIA personnel, it is too worthless." β
Cui Linglong said: "Are you the roundworm in my stomach?" β
The fifth girl said: "What you want is to attract the attention of my military intelligence department, so that my military intelligence department can focus on Changze County and General Yang." β
Cui Linglong said contemptuously: "This is really a big conspiracy!" β
The fifth girl continued: "The duty of the MIA, in the final analysis, is to serve the war, the MI is the eyes of the army, and the news of the MI plays a vital role in the deployment and operation of the army. β
Cui Linglong said: "So what? β
The fifth girl said: "Therefore, the military operation of the Dingyan Army has begun at this moment. β
Cui Linglong said: "You can talk a little more." β
The fifth girl responded to her request: "Changze County is in the south, so the action of the Dingyan Army must start from the north." β
Cui Linglong smiled, "The Military Intelligence Department is now focusing most of its forces and sights on Changze County, and the north is bound to be empty, and it is naturally difficult to detect the actions of the Difficult Army, and if you don't get the news from the Military Intelligence Department, the Shuofang Army will inevitably be unable to deal with it." β
The fifth girl said: "That's why I came to Luming Temple. β
Cui Linglong said: "Even you have come to Luming Temple, it can be seen that the Military Intelligence Department has indeed been tricked." β
The fifth girl smiled, "I'm glad you think so." β
Cui Linglong pursed her lips and said, "Isn't it?" Isn't it the Fifth Commander who sits before me? β
The fifth girl's words thundered on the ground, "I'm just a cover, a cover for the Dingyan army to think that the military intelligence department has been tricked, and the Shuofang army has not responded enough to the north. β
Cui Linglong gritted her teeth and said, "I don't believe you saw through this earlier!" β
The fifth girl smiled, "Zhao Xiangyao was in the area of Woyebo, and the warriors who saw the Dingyan military exercise were not just for martial arts, they themselves were the ones who would go west. β
Cui Linglong suddenly changed color, "This is impossible!" β
The fifth girl said: "What you mean by this sentence is still your arrangement that I can't see through." People who are annoyed and angry are all reactions from you. β
Cui Linglong shouted: "How the hell did you see through it, how could you think of this?!" You're just the fifth girl in the MIA, not the Mo Li Mo Divine Machine! β
The fifth girl looked at Cui Linglong, her eyes were full of pity, "That's not how accounts are calculated. β
Cui Linglong was stunned, "What's the account?" β
The fifth girl said: "You are just a warrior of the envoy of the feudal town, and I am a warrior of His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, the envoy of the feudal town is destined to not be able to fight His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, how can you beat me?" β
Cui Linglong was stunned for a long time, she suddenly smiled and said: "Your arrogance, if you can maintain it until dawn tomorrow, I will really obey you!" β
The fifth girl said: "You have been calm just now, you should not be calm so quickly at this time." β
Cui Linglong said proudly: "My calmness naturally makes sense!" β
The fifth girl said: "This is Changze County, the land of Xiazhou. β
Cui Linglong said with a smile: "No matter how many people come from the military intelligence department, how many can there be?" One hundred, or five hundred? β
The fifth girl said: "No matter how many military intelligence offices there are, if they are surrounded by the army, they will not be able to get out." β
Cui Linglong said: "I don't believe it, your military intelligence department has also dug tunnels in the mountains, which can lead directly to the wilderness below the mountains!" β
The fifth girl said, "Of course it's impossible. β
Cui Linglong smiled more and more happily, "So you're dead!" β
The fifth girl said: "It seems that when you came, you were not unprepared, and the garrisons near Changze were all mobilized by you." β
Cui Linglong said: "I have this power, and I also have this meticulous mind. β
The fifth girl said: "Choosing the place in the Luming Temple on the mountain outside the city is too special, and the more special it is, the easier it is to arouse suspicion." β
Cui Linglong said: "Although I don't know that Luming Temple was built by your military intelligence department, and I don't know that you dug a hole in Luming Temple to hide soldiers, but since I have doubts, I must be prepared, this is foolproof!" β
The fifth girl said, "You look very happy." β
Cui Linglong said: "I'll make a bet with you." β
The fifth girl said, "Although I am not in the habit of betting, you can talk about it first." β
Cui Linglong said: "I bet that the strategy of the Dingyan army that you just deduced is not a very early conclusion, and I bet that the Shuo Fang army does not know these things yet, and has not made corresponding defensive deployments." β
The fifth girl said, "So if I can't go back safely, you will win in the end." β
Cui Linglong laughed, she was extremely happy at this moment, "This is originally my win!" β
The fifth girl said, "I'll make a bet with you too." β
Cui Linglong was interested, "Although I don't bet from time to time, you can also talk about it first." β
The fifth girl said, "I bet that Shi Jingjiao will give up on you." β
Cui Linglong was stunned, "What are you talking about?" β
The fifth girl stood up, "Shi Jingjiao will order the army to give up to save you, and let you be taken away by me." β
......
As Cui Linglong said, the 3,000 garrisons of Changze County have already marched to the foot of Luming Temple.
This war, which was started by the intelligence agencies of the two sides, is no longer a fight between the intelligence officers of the two sides. As the fifth girl said, the purpose of the existence of the intelligence agency is to serve the war, and sometimes it can even determine the victory or defeat of the entire war, and its importance is self-evident. The transfer of 3,000 garrisons is really not a big deal.
And for Cui Linglong, no matter whether the Shuofang army is ready to deal with the sudden attack of the Dingyan army in terms of troop deployment, as long as she can catch the fifth girl back this time, or kill her on the Luming Temple, it will inevitably cause chaos in the Lingzhou Military Intelligence Department, even if this chaos will not last too long, but at such a critical moment, it is enough to have a great impact on the war.
Of course, the most important thing is that as long as the fifth girl is held in his hand, the battle between the Dark Tiger and the Military Intelligence Department is a victory for the Dark Tiger, even if the victory is tragic, even if Cui Linglong dies in the end, the worst is a draw. This is the problem that Cui Linglong cares about the most, she can't bear to be defeated again and again in front of Shi Jingjiao with the dark tiger. That was the most painful thing for her.
So when the fifth girl said conclusively that Shi Jingjiao would give up on her, Cui Linglong's heart hurt as if she was pricked by a needle, even if she was just mentioned, she couldn't bear it.
However, the facts made Cui Linglong feel a great crisis.
At the foot of Luming Temple Mountain, more than one army appeared.
In addition to the Changze garrison, there was also a cavalry of 3,000 soldiers and 6,000 war horses.
The two armies confronted each other at the foot of Luming Temple Mountain.
Standing on the mountain with a wide field of vision, seeing the two armies neatly arrayed and eyeing each other at the bottom of the mountain, Cui Linglong's heart shook so much that even the fifth girl could understand a lot.
"How did the gentlemen end up here?" Cui Linglong saw the banner clearly, and her heart was in turmoil.
The fifth girl stood beside her and said with a smile: "What you said is really incomprehensible. The gentlemen are all among the best horsemen in the Tang Dynasty, and the army of the imperial court cannot rush to Lingzhou day and night, but it is not unimaginable for His Majesty to let the gentlemen take the first step to support the Lingzhou garrison. β
Cui Linglong clenched her fists silently, her finger joints turned white, "You know that's not what I'm talking about." β
The fifth girl continued: "Gentlemen are all unparalleled in combat power, and they are the best at running. The best at running, these simple four words, do you know what it means? Don't say that a surprise attack on Changze is a surprise attack on Xiazhou City, so what's so difficult? The dark tiger you arranged in Lingzhou, I was almost killed before I came here, and the scouts of Changze County itself were in front of the gentlemen...... It's not worth mentioning. β
Cui Linglong said: "Gentlemen suddenly entered Xiazhou, are they not afraid of provoking a war?" β
The fifth girl smiled: "It's even more boring to say, Xiazhou is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the army of the Tang Dynasty was ordered to come, why did it provoke a war?" β
Cui Linglong was speechless.
The fifth girl glanced at Cui Linglong, "What you have to worry about now is when the Changze garrison will retreat." β
Cui Linglong looked at the fifth girl and said firmly: "I won't go down the mountain, they won't retreat!" β
"Really?" The fifth girl smiled, and suddenly pointed down the mountain, with a teasing expression, "They have retreated." β
"What?" Cui Linglong looked at it in astonishment.
The garrison of Changze County under the mountain did retreat.
Cui Linglong's face suddenly turned as white as paper, her eyes lost their luster in an instant, turned into a pool of stagnant water, and her body shook even more, almost soft to the ground.
The fifth girl sighed and said slowly: "The conversation between the two armies is not difficult to deduce...... The gentlemen are all under the orders of the imperial court, and they have come here to receive the military intelligence department and return to the west, where does the garrison of Changze County dare to stop it? At the request of the gentlemen, they could only retreat. β
Cui Linglong held on to the tree beside her, and her eyes turned black for a while.
It's just a matter of retreating the Changze County garrison, but it's retreating too fast!
The fifth girl said quietly: "The garrison of Changze County retreated so quickly, naturally they didn't ask Xiazhou for anything, they knew that you were on the mountain, and you retreated so decisively, it can only show that before they set off, they should have received a secret order from Shi Jingjiao: If the Shuofang army also comes to protect the military intelligence department, Changze County is not allowed to use force with the Shuofang army." Because once the two armies are fighting, it means that the army has rebelled. β
The fifth girl looked down the mountain again, "I originally thought that the garrison of Changze County would confront the gentlemen for at least a day or two, and only after asking Shi Jingjiao for instructions would they take action, but I didn't expect them to retreat so simply...... It seems that when you set off, Shi Jingjiao thought of what might happen here, otherwise, how could he give a secret order to the Changze garrison one step ahead? β
"But it's not difficult to deduce, if you can mobilize the Changze garrison, why can't I mobilize the Shuofang army? It's just that the Dingyan army has already marched to the north of Lingzhou at this time, and the battle is about to start, Shi Jingjiao can only abandon you in order to cover up the actions of the army in the north and prevent the Shuofang army from entering the combat readiness defense one step ahead of time because of today's incident, and not affecting the overall situation of the war in the north. But the fact that he has abandoned you so simply is really hard for you to bear. β
Cui Linglong was already in tears, and sat on the ground, she was still holding on to the tree trunk, her face was full of despair, and she cried: "How can he be so ruthless, I'm working hard for him!" I have sacrificed so much for him over the years, why can he give me up so decisively? The past and present mountain alliance and sea oath say that the good two are not negative...... How could he be so ruthless! β
In the end, Cui Linglong was already crying heartbreakingly.
She is willing to die for Shi Jingjiao, but the premise must be active, not passive.
To be active means to be heroic, and to be passive means to be betrayed.
The fifth girl didn't want to look at the tragic appearance of Cui Linglong, who was defeated and betrayed, her eyes fell on the bottom of the mountain, and she said slowly: "You also hoped that my inference about the strategy of the Dingyan army was not drawn a long time ago, and the Shuofang army did not have a corresponding military deployment...... Now that all the gentlemen are here, you must already know the answer. β
With a long sigh, the fifth girl continued: "And what I want to tell you is that Shi Jingjiao's extravagant hope that he would rather abandon you and tear his face with the Shuo Fang army a few days later cannot be realized-the Dingyan army will use troops in the north, and the Shuo Fang army will take the lead in the south and seize the opportunity!" β
When the words fell, the gentlemen under the mountain suddenly moved.
They turned around and retreated to the Changze garrison in Changze County, and launched a charge unexpectedly!
