Chapter Ninety-Three: Breaking into the Heavenly Mountains
Wu Fengying briefly told Bai Yu'e about the recent battle situation.
The 30,000 elite soldiers hidden in the forest saw that Bai Yu'e had come to deliver grain and grass, and they all appeared.
The officers and men of the three armies immediately buried the pot on the spot and cooked a full meal. Bai Yu'e flew to the outside of Shezhou City, sneaked into the Annan country's military camp incognito, came to the grain and grass warehouse, set a fire, turned into smoke and left. When the fire engulfed half of the grain and grass, Zheng Chunqiu, a Lingbao Daoist, appeared again, raised water and fire beads, and extinguished the flames.
The next day, Li Huaizhu led his troops to the north gate of Shezhou, and waited for the soldiers of Annan to face him.
Cheng Jizong rode on his horse and shouted, "Ah! Tang Man listened, I Xu Guo will not die, and I will be able to drive straight into Chang'an, behead Li Yuan, and sit on your Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Huaizhu said: "Haha...... You're a kid with a lot of imagination, you're daydreaming, thinking about good things. Now that Shezhou is shattered and Niu Jianguang is captured, you Xu Guo obviously no longer exists, why did you destroy the Tang Dynasty? Acquaintances are waiting to surrender quickly, maybe my Heavenly Dynasty can not blame the past, and bow to all the kings. ”
Cheng Jizong said disdainfully: "I'm bah! Who is rare that you Tang Dynasty bird king dog marquis, today swear to fight to the death with you. ”
The two armies did not speculate, and suddenly went to war.
Li Huaizhu, urging the war horse, the meteor treasure hammer was thrown in the air, and he swore to fight to the death with the enemy. Zhang Meiying, showing her might, slashed back and forth with a cold knife, and the knife did not leave the enemy's neck bone. Wu Fengying, swinging the gun, slashing the head and covering the face to kill, the gun stabbed into the hearts of the people, killing the enemy soldiers in a series. Bai Yu'e, not showing weakness, danced the long whip "whirring", the enemy soldiers who smoked screamed, and the blood flowed into a river in an instant. The soldiers of Xu Guo were worried, and the soldiers shouted bitterly in their hearts: "Emperor Xu Guo has lost people and provoked a group of ancestors of the Tang Dynasty." "The blood of the Tang army was boiling, and the slashing and stabbing were as fierce as tigers. The enemy soldiers who were killed fled south.
Hu Fenglian, looking inside the city, saw that the morale of the Tang army was strong. Raise the drum and beat the war drum, "knock knock knock" shook the Quartet. The more the two armies killed, the more hateful they became. Shouting like thunder, fighting hard. Bai Yu'e, seeing the difference, jumped into the crowd with a whip, and smashed dozens of people with a whip.
Zheng Chunqiu, rising in the air, set up a bead of water and fire, and breathed fire and drained water, frightening the Tang army to flee in all directions. Wu Fengying. Flying fairy sword, swinging and dancing to slash the thief. Zheng Daoren, laughing, floating around and flashing fast, set fire to Tang Bing. Li Huaizhu was busy and quickly led his troops to withdraw into the city.
Besides, the messenger returned to Chang'an, faced the saint, and said: "Your Majesty, our army has broken Shezhou." Now that Niu Jianguang has been captured, please make a decision. ”
Gaozu Li Yuan said: "Immediately behead the traitor and show it to the public as an example." Let those small countries know that our Heavenly Empire is sacrosanct. ”
Zhang Xuansu came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a word, I don't know if I should say it?" ”
The Son of Heaven said: "Zhang Aiqing has something to say. ”
Zhang Xuansu said: "Your Majesty, then Li Huaizhu commanded 100,000 soldiers and went down to Shezhou, sooner or later he will have ambitions, and I am afraid that there will be a situation of dividing the territory again." In the opinion of the ministers, it is better to choose another person to be the supervisor of the army and reduce some of Li Huaizhu's military power. I don't know what your majesty wants? ”
Lu Guogong Cheng bit the gold and said: "Your Majesty, the so-called suspects don't need it." There is no doubt about employing people, and Mrs. Zhang is obviously jealous and jealous. How rampant Annan is at the moment. Apart from the Li family, who else can go on the expedition? ”
Zhang Xuansu said: "Lu Guogong's words are wrong, I think that I have many generals in the Tang Dynasty, except for him Li Huaizhu, how can no one go to the battle?" Does General Cheng think that there is no capable person in our dynasty? ”
Cheng bit Jin Qiaoxu and said: "Lord Zhang, just think about it, Li Jing's army went to aid Beiping, Chai Shao's army was stationed in Bingzhou, the prince, the king of Qin, and the king of Qi were all fighting in Suizhou, and even my old Cheng became a grain transport officer, do you want this old man to go to Annan?" ”
Wei Zheng said: "Lu Guogong's words are serious. At present, although Li Huaizhu is the best candidate for the Southern Expedition, it is not unreasonable to send someone to serve as a supervisor to weaken Li Huaizhu's military power. ”
Cheng bit Jin Xin and said: "These two people are from the East Palace Prince's Mansion, and they will definitely be a stumbling block for the King of Qin of our family in the future, and their suppression of Li Huaizhu is obviously equivalent to weakening the power of the King of Qin." Thinking of this, he said: "Your Majesty, Li Huaizhu's younger brother is staying in Beijing to wait for his post, and his family members are also in the capital, how dare he rebel?" According to the minister, the imperial court does not need to worry, and let the Li family general go to conquer Annan. ”
The Son of Heaven said: "Well, what Lu Guogong said is right, I believe in General Li's loyalty. However, there is someone to help me in the southern expedition, and I feel more secure. Zhang Xuansu, I ordered you to be the southern prison army and fully assist the Li family's army. ”
Zhang Xuansu said quietly: "The ministers obey the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Cheng bites the golden beard and glares.
Zhang Xuansu retreated from the Taiji Palace, changed into armor, took the guards, and went south with the letter officer of the military department.
Li Huaizhu entered Shezhou City and gathered on the main hall with all the generals.
Zhang Meiying said: "The water and fire beads are the treasures of the Tianshan Mountains, and they have always been kept by the Lingbao Dao people. ”
Li Huaizhu asked: "In the opinion of my younger brothers and sisters, what can break the water and fire beads?" ”
Zhang Meiying said: "Venerable Tianshan has always been strict with the mountain, and no disciple is allowed to bring treasure down the mountain. In order to avenge the great revenge of his senior brother Xu Wance, the Lingbao Daoist privately brought water and fire beads to Annan to fight the Tang army, and he has already committed a mountain return, as long as we inform the Tianshan Venerable of this matter, we can make the water and fire beads no longer cause trouble in the world and intercept our army. ”
The Kunlun faction has a deep relationship with the Tianshan faction, and Zhang Meiying is a disciple of the Kunlun faction, so she knows the mountain rules of the Tianshan faction.
Wu Yueying asked, "Who do you think the third sister should send to Tianshan?" ”
Zhang Meiying said: "This place is far away from the Tianshan Mountains, if you use ordinary flying skills to travel, I am afraid that you will need to travel for five days, it is better to let Sister Yu'e go." ”
Li Huaizhu said: "Then General Lao Bai will go once." ”
Without waiting for Bai Yu'e to speak, Zhang Meiying said again: "But the fifth sister is a disciple of the Huashan faction, and she may not be able to invite the Venerable of Tianshan if she goes." ”
Li Huaizhu sighed and said, "What can I do about this? ”
Wu Fengying said: "Marshal Mo Chou, there will be a water spray beast in the end, but you can travel thousands of miles a day, I am willing to go to Tianshan with my third sister." ”
Wu Yueying asked worriedly: "Tianshan is an important place for cultivating immortals, can you see the Venerable Tianshan alone?" ”
Zhang Meiying said: "With the mana of the two of us, it is indeed extremely difficult to climb the Tianshan Mountain. If only Sister Xiulan was here. ”
Wu Yueying said: "Chang Xiulan and her Meishan faction were originally also a branch of the Kunlun faction, if she can go to Tianshan, whether it is mana or relationship, she is the best candidate." ”
Wu Fengying said: "Although what my sister said is reasonable, but Xiulan is in Chang'an, we are in Shezhou, this is thousands of miles away, and it is difficult to quench the thirst of the distant water?" ”
Li Huaizhu said: "What's so difficult about this? We can use the Immortal Summoning Technique to inform Xiulan and let her set off directly from Chang'an and rush to Tianshan. ”
Wu Yueying said: "This is the method of Lao Fujun Shi Xian. ”
Li Huaizhu lit the three pillars of incense, did some magic, and said something in his mouth.
In Chang'an City, Chang Xiulan was cultivating in the mansion, and suddenly heard the eldest brother calling for herself, she listened carefully, and the eldest brother said: "Xiulan, Lingbao Daoist Zheng Chunqiu used water and fire beads to trap our army in Shezhou City, you quickly go to Tianshan Mountain to inform Tianshan Venerable of this matter, and ask him to uphold justice." She replied with the use of the immortal summoning technique: "Big brother, don't worry, Xiulan will leave for Tianshan." Chang Xiulan escaped out of the city, plunged into the clouds, and flew west.
Half a day later, Chang Xiulan came to the foot of the Tianshan Mountain and walked towards the mountain. As he was walking, a beautiful woman decorated with various flower petals suddenly flashed in the forest, blocking the way. Chang Xiulan asked puzzledly: "Girl, who are you and why did you stop me?" ”
The woman held the flower vine in her hand and said, "I am the Hundred Flowers Fairy, a disciple of the Venerable of the Tianshan Mountain, and I am responsible for guarding the first pass of the Tianshan Mountain. Hum! Tianshan Holy Land, how can you come? Get out of here! ”
Chang Xiulan hugged her fists and said: "It turns out that the master is the Hundred Flowers Fairy." The troublesome fairy went back to the mountain to report to the Venerable, and said that the little woman had something important to tell her. ”
The Hundred Flowers Fairy said impatiently: "Who can see my master if he wants to?" Look at the vine. "She threw the vine and struck.
Chang Xiulan swung her knife to meet her, without fear. The two sides jumped into the air and fought for 500 rounds, all the way to the ground. Chang Xiulan suddenly slammed out a palm, knocking the Hundred Flowers Fairy to the ground, and she flew up the mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, a strong man appeared in the middle of the road, seeing that he was one zhang two tall, nine feet three in width of his shoulders, his head was like a bucket, his eyes were like copper bells, his body was covered with armor, he had a copper helmet on his head, and he was holding two huge axes to open the mountain. Chang Xiulan asked, "Who are you?" ”
The man said, "I am the mountain keeper Gai Tianshu." ”
"Are you going to get in my way?"
"Exactly."
Chang Xiulan didn't say anything more, and put the knife on it. Gai Tianshu swung his axe and split each other, his strength was as strong as an ox, and his axe technique was extremely sharp. The two of them fought with color, and the branches and rocks that collided flew one after another. Hundreds of fights in a row, Chang Xiulan escaped up the mountain, and Gai Tianshu then chased after him. As soon as she reached the top of the mountain, an old man was blocked in front of her, Chang Xiulan jumped out of the ground, took dozens of photos with the old man, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The old man said: "I am Shi Renyi, the eldest disciple of the Venerable Tianshan and the head of the Tianshan faction. ”
Chang Xiulan hugged her fists and said: "It turned out to be the head of Shi, who was disrespectful and disrespectful." Please take me to see the respected teacher, and the little sister has something important to return. ”
Shi Renyi asked, "Who are you?" ”
Xiulan said: "I am Chang Xiulan, the niece of Meishan Chang Feihong. ”
Gai Tianshu chased after the general, and fought with Chang Xiulan for five rounds with the axe, and said: "Senior brother, Hugh let this person into the mountain, she injured the little junior sister." ”
Shi Renyi asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Chang Xiulan said: "I really have something important to find the Venerable of the Tianshan Mountain, and I inadvertently injured the Hundred Flowers Fairy, please forgive me." ”
Shi Renyi said: "It's okay to see my master if you want to, but you have to pass my level." As he spoke, he made a gesture.
Chang Xiulan swung forward. Shi Renyi punched with his bare hands, flashed left and right, and slapped Chang Xiulan's waist with his palm. Chang Xiulan twisted her waist to avoid it, and swept the opponent's waist bone with a backknife. Shi Renyi disappeared. Chang Xiulan ran incognito. As soon as he entered the entrance of the cave, he saw a dark shadow blocking the way. Chang Xiulan carried a ball of blue qi in her palm and threw it along the black shadow. The black shadow flashed, and I didn't know where to go, and the blue gas "bang" fell to the ground, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains. At this time, a white-haired and silver-bearded man appeared in the cave, wearing a black Taoist crown, wearing a gray-white Taoist robe, stepping on black and white striped Taoist shoes, and holding a dusty old Taoist in his hand. Seeing that he was gentle and elegant, and quite a bit of an immortal, Chang Xiulan Shili asked, "Do you dare to ask if this old immortal is the Venerable of the Tianshan Mountains?" (To be continued)
