81. Emergency military intelligence

The old monster who has lived for more than two hundred years understands things that ordinary people can't imagine, just like summer insects can't understand ice crystals in winter, and Zhiwei and I are also eye-opening to some common sense in the cultivation realm that Ji Qingyang talked about next. For example, the condensation of Jindan, the conception of the Yuan Infant, the characteristics of the Jindan Period, the unique skills of the Yuan Infant Period, and how to move mountains and reclaim the sea during the Mahayana Period, hang and beat the cultivators of the world, etc., everything is like a dream. The legendary immortals seem to be within reach all of a sudden, but they seem to be out of reach, making people yearn for the world of cultivation leisurely.

It's a pity that we are still mortals after all, and we can't completely get rid of the red dust, Mei Jian walked in at this moment, and said softly: "Daliao Xiaofeng Daxia is visiting, I hope to interview you, and it seems that there is something important in his expression." ”

I nodded and said apologetically: "Shizun, Uncle Ji, there are still some mundane things to deal with, so let's retire first, you haven't seen you for many years, but you can catch up on the old days." Mei Jian asked people to take the best tea to worship the two Venerables. ”

Ji Qingyang said disapprehantly: "Where do cultivators come from, only the Heavenly Dao is the only pursuit, how can you go too far on the Heavenly Dao?" ”

I stopped and replied seriously: "The disciple thinks that everything in the world can be the Tao, and cultivating in the deep mountains and old forests is the Tao, and practicing in the red dust is also the Tao, as long as the Dao heart is firm, where can you not cultivate, and when can you not cultivate?" With that, I seemed to let go of something, and left the side hall with brisk steps.

Here, Ji Qingyang was silent for a while, and finally sighed: "Elder Jiang has found a good apprentice." Jiang Huaiyuan smiled silently when he heard this.

In the main hall, Xiao Feng was sitting motionless, looking at his nose and nose, looking at his heart, awe-inspiring like a mountain. I secretly sighed that I have won many adventures this year, but this Xiao Feng hero is also making rapid progress, after getting rid of the fetters of the Central Plains martial arts, he has been reborn, and the realm of martial arts seems to have reached a higher level.

As soon as I came in, I said: "I haven't seen you for a few months, Brother Xiao's martial arts have improved a lot, congratulations, I don't know if you came here today, do you have any advice?" ”

"I don't dare to advise, Murong Sword God is well-known in the martial arts, and everyone expects it, but Xiao Feng came here today because he has a difficult matter and wants to ask Brother Murong for advice, and I hope that Brother Murong will help me refer to one or two." Xiao Feng said.

I laughed and said, "Brother Xiao, it's okay to say it. ”

Xiao Feng said solemnly: "Recently, Yelu Hongji, the emperor of my Liao Kingdom, was suddenly bewitched by the demon and wanted to gather troops and horses to invade the Great Song Dynasty in the south, has Brother Murong heard of it?" ”

I frowned slightly: "Recently, Murong has been busy fighting with the Tubo Mi people, and he has paid less attention to national affairs, but he doesn't know why the emperor of Liao has raised troops, you must know that the current Song Liao offensive and defensive situation is changing." Our army is strong, the Xia State has formed an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty and provided a steady stream of war horses, and the Western Army on the Western Xia border can withdraw at any time to deal with any threat - to be honest, it is already a blessing for the Liao Dynasty that we do not take the initiative to attack the Liao State. ”

Xiao Feng shook his head and said: "At present, the three kingdoms of Song, Liaoxia and Xia are fighting, and the three kingdoms have ears and eyes for each other, so how can they not know each other's situation. I not only analyzed the situation of the Great Song Dynasty to the Liao Emperor one by one, but also emphasized the strong strength and heritage of Brother Murong and the Central Plains Martial Arts, but Yelu Hongji ignored this as if he was obsessed, and instead repeatedly emphasized and assured me of the strength of the Holy Clan, telling me to attack the Great Song Dynasty with whomever he wanted. But I don't know how many people will be displaced and their lives will be destroyed once the sword soldiers rise, so Xiao Feng also came to the Great Song Dynasty when Da Liao had nothing to do, hoping that Brother Murong could work with me to stop this senseless war. ”

I said: "The Khitan people think they have some strength, they invade if they want to, they come to the border of the Great Song Dynasty to fight the grass valley when they are hungry, and when they encounter the weakness of the Central Plains Dynasty, they burn, kill, loot and do all kinds of evil, how can we connive." Yelu Hongji will come when he comes, and Murong Fu's sword is not hung on the wall to decorate. I will let the Khitan people taste the strength of our Han people! ”

Xiao Feng frowned and said: "Brother Murong supports the Great Song Dynasty, which is naturally moral, but I think that between countries, no matter how open and secret battles are fought, it is best not to put them into swords, you must know that swords and soldiers together, disasters stretch for thousands of miles, and the people suffer, Xiao Feng has been influenced by the Buddhism of Master Xuanzhu since he was a child, and he really can't bear to see the common people suffer from this unjustified disaster." ”

I quietly looked at this great hero who was admired by countless people in my dreams and in reality, and Xiao Feng also calmly looked at me, his eyes were blazing, with an awe-inspiring righteousness and calmness, as selfless and natural as sunshine. I smiled slightly and said, "Murong understands, if Brother Xiao wants to stop this tragedy, what if you let Murong accompany you to the side stop." But I don't know what basis Yelu Hongji has now, and he dares to wave his troops south? ”

Xiao Feng was overjoyed and said: "Brother Murong is really from my Dao, to be honest, although you and I belong to different countries and nationalities, and even the ancestors of the Murong family are not Han, but Brother Murong is so chivalrous and still makes Xiao have to admire." Xiao Feng thanked you on behalf of the people of the world. After saying that, he really stood up and bowed to me.

I grabbed his shoulders with both hands and tried to stop him from bowing, but found that there was a strong internal force from his shoulders to resist, and in the end, my internal strength was superior, and I only made him bow halfway, and the two of them looked up and laughed, both of them had a rare feeling of confidant.

After the two sat down again, Xiao Feng stared ahead with his eyes and thought: "If you want to talk about Yelu Hongji's battle, I have also visited, but it is the strong support of the Prairie Holy Clan, they not only dispatched many Holy Clan masters, but also sent more than 10,000 black-clothed cavalry to participate in this attack. It is also guaranteed to greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army through various secret techniques, I have seen soldiers who take the secret medicine of the Holy Clan, instantly become infinitely powerful, do not know pain, like monsters who do not know life and death, and can even compete with the masters of the Central Plains martial arts. There are also soldiers who have been blessed by the Divine Comedy Dance of the Holy Clan, and they have obviously become high morale and fearless, such a powerful army I think is difficult for ordinary Great Song troops to resist. ”

I sneered slightly, "Holy Clan? It's the Mi tribe. It's just a group of cultivators on the grassland who are relatively poorly mixed. With a little legacy left by our ancestors, we dare to set off a bloody storm in the world, but we don't know the cycle of cause and effect, and now is also the time for us to go straight to the Yellow Dragon and eliminate this scourge in the world. That's it, I just need to use the power of the Great Song Dynasty to jointly eliminate this gang of stubbornness. Brother Xiao might as well follow me to carry out this feat of slaying demons and. ”

Xiao Feng nodded again and again: "There are indeed masters in them, I have been in contact with them for a while, if they fight alone, Xiao Mou asked himself except for a few of them who are threatened, the rest are not afraid, but if the other party rushes up, even the Shaolin sweeping monk is difficult to resist." With the support of Brother Murong and the Great Song Dynasty, it is believed that Yelu Hongji's ambitions should be thwarted. “

I nodded and said: "If it is the opponent's martial arts master, I believe that it should not be difficult to get rid of the other party by uniting the strength of the Central Plains martial arts, but if it is the Liao State army pressing the border, it is still necessary for my Great Song Dynasty border soldiers to prepare for the battle to meet the enemy is the right way, although you and I are excellent in martial arts, but God has the virtue of good life, we really should not make more killings, if we can capture and kill the other party's head in the army, it would be great." “

Xiao Feng stood up and said: "Brother Murong is not only excellent in martial arts, but also has profound martial virtues, and he is really a model of my generation of martial artists. “

I shook my head and said: "You and my brothers, how can we divide each other, Brother Xiao's character, Murong has always admired him, there is no need to be so polite, I will instruct Brother Xiao to follow me into the palace to meet the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, and discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy." “

The military situation brought by Xiao Feng was very urgent, the attack of the Great Liao was very sudden, completely disrupting the deployment of the Great Song Dynasty in the north, Yanmen Pass had been taken, and the monarchs and ministers of Tokyo City had not yet received the news from the front line, and the enemy rode south, and it was not long before he arrived.

Taiyuan Mansion, at this time is a tense situation, the soldiers who retreated from the front line have been taken in and reorganized, and the news of the fiasco of Yanmen Pass has been continuously improved, and the case of the Northern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers has been continuously gathered through flying pigeons and fast horses, forming such a picture in the minds of the monarchs and ministers: countless Liao soldiers are constantly attacking towards Yanmen Pass, although the arrows are raining down, but they cannot repel the Liao soldiers who seem to have eaten aphrodisiacs. Although relying on the steepness of Yanmen Pass, the Song army was able to hold the city wall for the time being, but it was also in danger. At the critical moment when the two armies were stalemate, a group of monsters who were not afraid of death climbed the fifteen-zhang high city wall with their bare hands, each monster was an enemy hundred, and did not know the pain, in addition to cutting off the opponent's head to stop the attack, in such a situation, the Song army was defeated and retreated, after the main general was killed, the city gate was lost, and finally the Yanmen Pass was occupied in its entirety.

Xiao Feng and I sat down and watched Zhao Xu and Zhang Chun and the ministers think hard about what to do. The Liao army's attack was even more fierce than expected, and it seems that the Liao State has received a lot of help from the Mi people. However, I have already stated in advance that although I will go to Taiyuan to assist in resisting the enemy, the main combat force still depends on the Song army itself.

Zhao Xu looked at the front-line colonel with an ugly face: "Is what you said true?" Is it possible that the front-line soldiers deliberately exaggerated the strength of the enemy army in order to shirk the responsibility for the defeat? “

"Report to the official family, we have never exaggerated the strength of the Liao State, on the contrary, the enemy may still have means that have not yet been demonstrated, General Yang asked the official family to send troops to support Taiyuan as soon as possible, otherwise Taiyuan may be lost."

Zhao Xu frowned and said: "The Liao army is fierce, and the most tricky thing is that the dead soldiers of the other party's attack are very difficult, I don't know how the other party has cultivated so many masters, Murong Guoshi has a good plan for this."

I shook my head and said: "Murong has never heard of this kind of cultivation method, but the Demon Gate Qimen Strange Sect Strange Techniques are endless, this is probably a way to take a certain medicine or drive a certain exercise to achieve a temporary enhancement of the physique several times, this method often cannot last, because the Heavenly Dao is eternal, cause and effect are lawful, there is no power to get out of thin air, and you have to pay as much as you want." Therefore, I don't think we need to be overly afraid of each other's monsters, as long as we strengthen the bow and crossbow, spears, and long knives, a dozen people on the battlefield should be able to resist. It's just that Song Jun encountered this kind of monster for the first time, and he was not familiar with the characteristics of the other party, so he was a little afraid psychologically. ”

Zhao Xu's mood gradually calmed down, and suddenly said: "What the national teacher said is that it's just that the Liao State is menacing, and after the Yanmen Pass is lost, the Liao army can divide its troops at any time to attack the various cities of our Great Song Dynasty, and Hedong, Hebei and even Kaifeng Mansion will be attacked by the other party at any time, and the people will also fall into the flames of war, and I also ask the national teacher to help me." ”

I bowed my head lightly and said: "Even if the official family doesn't say it, Murong is a national teacher of the Great Song Dynasty, and the people are in trouble, so it is naturally incumbent on him, the current military situation is urgent, as soon as the Yanmen Pass is broken, the enemy's offensive options will change a lot, and the Central Plains is full of battlefields." I plan to leave for Taiyuan early tomorrow morning, hoping that the officials and ministers will hurry up the rearmament and war, send troops to aid the front line in time, and in addition, Kaifeng City will also be prepared to guard against a sudden attack by the Liao army. ”
