Chapter 305
After a few glances, Yu Shenzhao rode his horse and raised his sword, although he was still very majestic, but it was far from the first time he saw it, and he didn't know if Li Xunlian's strength had improved to be able to casually beat Yu Shenzhao After his heart changed, or if this person really encountered something, resulting in a change.
After pondering for a moment, Li Xunlian instructed the green demons not to show up, and he was going to go down to chat with Yu Shenzhao.
Of course, this is definitely not a reminiscence, he wants to find out Li Huangting's intention to send troops at this moment, and also say hello in advance, after all, there are many soldiers and horses, in case anyone who doesn't have long eyes takes a look at the mountain, and happens to find the existence of one hundred and two demons, things will be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Li Xunlian flashed out, Yu Shenzhao felt in his heart as the peak of Tianhe, and the big bow carved with a dragon pattern phoenix in his palm was immediately full, and Zhang Bow wanted to release the arrow.
However, Li Xunlian's speed was extremely fast, and by the time he completed a series of actions with his bow and arrow, he had already reached a distance where the other party could see his face clearly.
Yu Shenzhao saw that he was a little familiar, and although the bow and arrow in his hand were still not put down, he was obviously not ready to open the bow directly.
"Who?"
He stood on his horse and shouted.
"Commander Yu, long time no see!" Li Xunlian urged him to be as fast as the wind, and his extraordinary speed brought an incredible scene.
It seems that his figure arrives first, and his voice arrives later!
As soon as this hand was revealed, countless soldiers were dumbfounded, and several lieutenants around Yu Shenzhao pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, their faces full of nervousness.
And Yu Shenzhao was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized, no wonder this person looked familiar, it was actually an innkeeper!
"Childe, I met here, I really didn't expect it. Yu Shenzhao turned over and dismounted, and said with his hand.
It didn't matter if he got off the horse, the sound of a string of armor shaking in the hula, and all the soldiers and generals followed the brush and rolled off the horse.
Li Xunlian was a little embarrassed by this situation, but the etiquette was indispensable, so he also smiled and said: "I happened to be talking about something with a few friends on the top of the mountain behind, and after hearing the sound of horses' hooves, I glanced at it, but I didn't expect it to be Commander Yu." ”
"It's a coincidence, disturbing the son's conversation with friends, and Yu is really guilty. Yu Shenzhao was very polite, even in front of more than 10,000 troops, he did not show some official spirit.
This is where he is good, and it is also where Li Xunlian is particularly impressed by him, this person cannot be said to be neither arrogant nor humble, but at least he can be the same on the outside.
If it was changed to other officials, such as the group of goods who followed Zhu Tong during the Southern Expedition, in front of Zhu Tong and the soldiers, they all looked like "Hmph, who are you" to Li Xunlian, and behind the scenes, they all wanted to kneel in front of Li Xunlian and kneel and lick, the gap between the two sides is like this, and fools can see which one is more worthy of being remembered.
"Commander Yu is serious, this is not Divine Sword Peak, how can there be any such thing as disturbing or not bothering. Li Xunlian smiled, pretended to be puzzled, and said, "What's going on, is the imperial court going to send troops to the Buddha Sect?"
"No, no, no, the Buddha Sect is benevolent, how can the imperial court use force against the Buddha Sect, Yu Mou led the troops here this time to help the Buddha Sect jointly suppress the walking dead who are active in the western land. Yu Shenzhao hurriedly began to explain.
"Oh......" Li Xunlian nodded with a pretended enlightenment.
"Why did Childe come here suddenly, the Western Land is very chaotic now, and you and your friends are also here to check on the situation of the Walking Dead?" asked Yu Shenzhao.
It sounds like the imperial court shouldn't know that their so-called walking dead are the living dead of yin fire, otherwise Yu Shenzhao wouldn't be able to say so awkwardly, of course, it may also be that only the highest level is qualified to know, in order to appease the government and the opposition, and not panic.
And Yu Shenzhao, although he is the commander of the Qinglong Guard Forbidden Army, he doesn't seem to have the identity to know the top secret.
"No, I'm just idle, but recently I wanted to come to the West to find a friend, so I came. Li Xunlian said with a smile.
Yu Shenzhao's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said in his heart that he had glanced at the innkeeper before? At this time, how could he still have the heart to travel in the mountains and rivers, couldn't he see that the Kyushu Continent was about to overturn, and the demons and monsters were rampant?
"Hehe, Childe is so elegant. Yu Shenzhao smiled awkwardly, and wanted to find an excuse to get on the horse and leave.
Li Xunlian saw what he meant, but he didn't ask what he wanted to ask, so how could he just let him go. So he quickly changed the topic and said, "Commander Yu, I heard that something happened in the imperial court recently, is it serious?"
His words were purely deceptive, because he walked in the deep mountains and old forests, so how could he have any chance to hear about it. And the reason why he is so deceitful to Shenzhao is because of the inopportune consideration of the imperial court's dispatch of troops, and it has also been analyzed before, the imperial court is not suitable to send troops to the western land at this time, no matter from any point of view, if it is not for Qingxiao Emperor to be confused, then it must be something happened to the imperial court that makes him have to make this decision.
Obviously, this sentence was deceived by Yu Shenzhao, because his face changed again.
"Childe, don't be sloppy with me, how can you not know about this matter, I just met Childe today, Yu Mou wants to hear Childe's opinion on this matter, so as to solve my doubts. Yu Shenzhao arched his hand and said.
Li Xunlian was a little confused when he heard this, he looked at Yu Shenzhao deeply, but he couldn't find any abnormality from the latter's expression, so he couldn't analyze whether the other party really thought he already knew something, or he was testing himself in reverse.
"I haven't heard much about this, so Commander Yu might as well tell me about it carefully. Li Xunlian was not prepared to make a painstaking cliché, and with the intention that it was best to ask and pull down if he couldn't ask, he said so.
However, Yu Shenzhao obviously really wanted to ask Li Xunlian to solve his doubts, so he said: "That is the case, then Yu will talk to Childe, but after Childe listens to the specific situation, no matter what, please refer to Yu for details." ”
His voice was a little low when he said this, and even after speaking, he stretched out his hand and invited Li Xunlian to take a step to speak.
What's going on, it's still so mysterious.
Li Xunlian was full of curiosity, and after following Yu Shenzhao to a distance, he asked: "Commander Yu has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, you didn't embarrass me when you were in the imperial city in the past, if you need any help, I'm still happy to help." ”
He was naturally polite when he said this, because at that time, it was not that Yu Shenzhao did not embarrass him, but that Yu Shenzhao did not dare. This is a difference in nature, and not daring and not doing it are completely different things.
But since Li Xunlian spoke like this, he would naturally say the same thing, because he felt that Yu Shenzhao was not bad, although he didn't have anything to do with him, but at least he looked pleasing to the eye, you know, in Kyushu today, there are fewer and fewer people who can look pleasing to the eye.
Of course, Li Xunlian also knew that Yu Shenzhao would not really ask him to help him, because if Yu Shenzhao was that kind of person, Li Xunlian might also look at him pleasing to the eye.
"Ahem, Childe listened to me, not long ago, Princess Xi committed suicide. Yu Shenzhao spoke in a low voice, obviously this matter is a taboo topic at present.
What, Zhu Xi committed suicide, a woman like her can still commit suicide, what must be something that makes her unable to think about it......
Li Xunlian was really stunned for a while, and then said, "Because of what?"
"After all, it is a matter involving the face of the imperial court, but Yu heard that it seems to be because of the only son of the king, Zhu Cheng. At this moment, Yu Shenzhao's expression is actually very funny, and it doesn't match his majestic image at all, but Li Xunlian understands that this matter will inevitably involve many decisions of Emperor Qingxiao, and it may even be related to Yu Shenzhao's expedition, and he probably thinks that some of the decisions made by Emperor Qingxiao because of Zhu Xi's suicide are a bit inappropriate, so he will show this strange expression.
What the hell is going on, Yu Shenzhao sighed and spoke again......
Yu Shenzhao was quite helpless in the process of telling, probably meaning that he was complaining that Emperor Qingxiao was no longer as virtuous as before, and for Zhu Xi's death, he carried out all kinds of big actions in the imperial court for no reason.
Regarding what he said, Li Xun was quite surprised after hearing it, in his understanding, Zhu Yi has always been a very calm and decision-making person, Zhu Xi's death will certainly cause him a considerable blow, thinking that Emperor Qingxiao's favor for his daughter is known to the world, but it is indeed a bit unreasonable to make so many inconsiderate moves.
It's okay to abolish the prime ministers left and right, but it's understandable to abolish the two prime ministers who are not worthy of the name. But there are several situations to send troops to the southland again, you must know that since he ended his personal expedition to the southland last time, the Qingxiao country's military reserves have fallen into an overloaded state.
Of course, the so-called overload does not mean that the military reserves have been exhausted, but as a monarch, he should be able to see the current situation clearly, and there are too many places that need to be used in the near future, and in contrast, the influence of the southern land is no longer enough to send troops as the first element, which he should be very clear about.
The so-called overload of troop reserves is also said about this. Load refers to the inability to match what is needed, not the literal overconsumption.
Undoubtedly, his choice to send troops to the Southland at this time was a rather risky and unwise decision.
You must know that there is a demon clan in the south to support him, if it weren't for his personal conquest, how many soldiers he sent in the past would basically be in vain, and a single Chimu Spirit would be able to keep the 30,000 troops of the imperial court outside Blackwater City, not to mention that Aichen has never made a move, and for such a long time, how many strong hands will be sent to the Xinghe garrison is something that cannot be predicted.
Moreover, this is only secondary, and mobilizing Qinglongwei to go to the west is the most confusing move.
Qinglongwei is the imperial court guard, aiming to protect the peace of the imperial city, and at any time to deal with the chaos that may break out at any time in the imperial court, if there is another "Cheng Wang" at this time who chooses to launch civil strife, what will the imperial court rely on to suppress, only rely on the super strength of the Qingxiao Emperor himself?
I have to say that his ability is indeed enough to protect himself, but what you must know is that he is the king of a country, and he has no problem killing an army of 1,000 people with one finger dragon, but what about the people in the imperial court, will they also suffer?
The power of the Jue Long Finger is indiscriminate, within the range, no matter what you are a human being, all of them will be wiped out and razed to the ground.
mentioned another king earlier, that's right, there is only one king in this world, and he has been blocked in the south and can't get out at all. But what you must know is that there are two princes and kings like him, especially King Liang, this person is not as scheming as King Cheng, and his strength is not as good as King Cheng, but his ambition is never worse than King Cheng.
Now that Emperor Qingxiao has sent troops to the south and the west at the same time, even the Qinglongwei who is responsible for defending the imperial city has been transferred out, and the imperial city is empty, which is just a good time for King Liang to start an incident, although he does not have any eloquence, but this vision is still there after all.
In addition, not to mention the imperial city, and only to talk about the 30,000 Qinglongwei, Qingxiao Emperor was angry and easy to say, but to put the "distribution" here regardless of their life and death, wouldn't it make the soldiers feel cold?
The result is obvious, the chill is unavoidable, and even a once loyal general like Yu Shenzhao has a whisper, let alone others.
You must know that the current situation in the western land is simply a huge swamp, and it can't be filled without more than 200,000 lives, even if it is converted into Xuan Xiu, I'm afraid it will take more than 10,000 people to compete with the Yin Fire Living Dead.
Of course, if he joins forces with the Buddha Sect, he can effectively reduce casualties, but if that is the case, standing in the position of Qingxiao Emperor, isn't he busy in vain, it is better to send troops from the beginning to win the favor of the people.
Up to now, the reputation of Buddhism has not collapsed, and the imperial court has sent troops so late, it can neither buy people's hearts, nor make an effective comparison with Buddhism, and in the end, it has to rely on other Buddhism to reduce casualties, what is the intention.
Therefore, Yu Shenzhao complained in his heart, so he felt that Emperor Qingxiao was no longer virtuous as before, and the reason for all this was blamed on Zhu Xi's suicide.
Li Xunlian didn't dare to guarantee this, but he felt that the possibility was very great. No matter how much trouble Zhu Xi made during his lifetime, it was just trouble, and how many people she killed were just ordinary people and soldiers of the three armies, in the final analysis, they were all existences that had no blood relationship with Emperor Qingxiao.
There is a saying that loves the people like a son, but this sentence is pure fart, countless emperors since ancient times, they have never loved the people, but their own position, the smart are better to the people, because they know that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and those who are not smart have never put the life and death of the people in their eyes.
There is also a saying that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, but looking at the ancient and modern times, which Son of Heaven is really guilty of the same crime as the common people, if they do something ugly and accidentally spread all over the world, the solution has always been to pretend to be heartbroken, pretending to have to do things according to the rules, but in the end, it was many ministers who persuaded and persuaded them, and "forced to helpless" to replace them with dragon robes.
This kind of thing, Li Xunlian is definitely a fart, what can a robe represent, just say that he doesn't want to die.
Now the same is true of Qingxiao Emperor, before this, Zhu Xi's 100,000 army of Zhu Xi was wiped out, he seemed to be very sad, and immediately launched a large army to conquer the south, but is his real sadness because of the 100,000 army?
Even said that he didn't have any sadness at all, he was just anxious that Zhu Xi fell into the hands of King Cheng, and his feelings for those soldiers who died in battle were exactly the same feeling that the grain in the people's granaries was stolen by rats.
