Volume 1 Iron Blood Shadow Warrior Chapter 56 Inside the Dingjun City
Soon after Fan Junquan left, everyone headed south along the official road. Liu Dongzhi and Lin Yueyu rode in front of each other, and Wu Di, Qianhui and Mu Qingyu rode behind. Rong Cheng changed the horse for the car, drove the car himself, and let Lu Zijing and Liu Sanzhi sit in the car.
After Yu Jiangtao came back, he rushed into the cart, and it took a while before he got out of the cart and rode behind the palace. Along the way, Liu Dongzhi's expression was calm, and Lin Yueyu opened the sea and the sky, pointed out the rivers and mountains, and talked about everything. Lin Yueyu and Liu Dongzhi have been at war for many years, and they have not said a few words in total, but this time they talked with Liu Dongzhi, but they had a different understanding of Liu Dongzhi.
Along the way, there were constantly rangers coming to inform Lin Yueyu of the situation, and Liu Dongzhi handled it calmly and without scruples. Everyone went all the way non-stop, and the journey of more than two days took only one and a half days to complete.
Sure enough, as Lin Yueyu said, the three checkpoints were guarded by only ten non-commissioned officers who had no cultivation. Everyone went all the way without any obstacles, and after two hours, they arrived at the junction of Daying and Zhongzhou.
Liu Dongzhi raised his hand and pointed to the bustling crowd at the junction, and sighed: "The teacher often says that the responsibility of a soldier is to seek peace in the world. I don't know when we will be able to forge swords into plowshares and stop fighting? At that time, wouldn't it be nice to travel all over the world, seek the secrets, and explore the way of heaven?!" Lin Yueyu was a little moved when she heard this, and she couldn't help but nod her head.
More than 20 miles forward, more than 100 riders galloped on black horses under their crotches, like a dark cloud. Immediately, the knight was clothed in soapy armor, with a shadow knife and crossbow hanging on his waist, a longbow on his back, and a long lance hanging on his horse. Behind the head and horse, the battle flag fluttered, and above the battle flag were two hideous tigers, and the two tigers reached up with their front paws, holding up a big 'moving' son.
"Moving Camp!" Wu Di exclaimed excitedly. The Hundred Cavalry is subordinate to the first battalion of the downstream of the general manager of the Great Shadow Ding Military Road, the camp of movement.
"Raise the sword!" With the order of the leading captain, more than 100 knights brushed the ground and raised their knives in front of their chests, and the momentum of a hundred horsemen galloping suddenly came, and they stopped two feet in front of Liu Dongzhi's body, and the birds were silent. "Zhang Zhongqun, the captain of the moving battalion, greets the commander. ”
"Go back to the city!" Liu Dongzhi nodded and ordered. "No!" Zhang Zhongqun waved his long knife, and more than 100 horses rushed to the two compartments for a while.
After many years of fighting, Lin Yueyu didn't feel much every time he saw this moving battalion that acted erratically and had strong combat power, and at this time, he secretly asked when I would be able to have such a ranger under my command!
Liu Dongzhi ordered the war horse to stand side by side with Lin Yueyu, and said with a smile: "General Lin, no... Yue Yu, let's say goodbye! November 15 Shadow Wu Academy will start the test, and I will be waiting for you in Xing'an at that time!"
Yu Jiangtao rode past Lin Yueyu and said with a smile: "General Lin, the eldest of my family is handsome and martial, thirty years old, and has not yet been married. It is reported that General Lin is also alone, and he has already reached the age of marriage, why don't you choose my senior brother and marry into the big shadow?"
Seeing that Lin Yueyu's reddish face was gradually rising with anger, Yu Jiangtao laughed for a long time, and slammed the horse and drove away, leaving Lin Yueyu staring at the distant figures of everyone, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
Xingjun City is not big, stuck between the Tianshan Mountain and the main trunk of Tianhe in the western section, and the city wall is towering and majestic, and it is extremely thick. In the west, the cliffs of the Broken Tianshan Mountains are towering into the clouds, and the birds are nowhere to be seen; in the east, the vast Tianhe River flows slowly, and the tidal flats are criss-crossed and ravines, and the horses are densely rejected.
Xingjun City is really a natural danger, and the champion city of Weishui East and East Tianxi behind it is a mutual angle, firmly holding the only way from Zhongzhou to Daying.
Everyone did not stop at Xingjun City, but simply changed carriages and horses, and then set off to Dingjun City behind Xingjun City. At the beginning of the hour, the bustling merchants in the Xingjun city drove their horses and drove to the west gate.
When he was about to reach the West Gate, suddenly an unkempt and ragged old man on the side of the road shouted: "Wu Langjun, Wu Langjun!" Wu Di's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that the old man was Rong Laosan, Rongcheng's grandfather!
Wu Di jumped off the horse, and at the same time beckoned to the car: "Xiaocheng, your grandfather is there!" Rong Cheng was sitting in a big car with Liu Sanzhi and Lu Zijing. Hearing Wu Di's summoning, he was overjoyed, hurriedly got out of the car, and when he ran to Rong Laosan, he was already teary-eyed, looking at his embarrassed grandfather, but he was speechless with joy.
Lu Zijing lifted the curtain and said with a smile: "Old Rong! Xiaocheng, hurry up and help your grandfather get into the car, and talk about it in the car." Rong Cheng helped the trembling Rong Laosan into the carriage. Rong Laosan wanted to kowtow to Lu Zijing, but was stopped by Lu Zijing. Rong Laosan saw that the car was clean and tidy, and sat cramped in the corner of the car: "How can this make it, the old slave is better to go under the car and follow!" Liu Sanzhi smiled: "Rong Lao, don't be cramped." Sit down and tell me how you got here. ”
Rong Laosan stammered about his experience. Originally from Gong Yi, Rong Laosan found a merchant ship to go to Daying to work. The owner of the ship saw that Rong Lao had three duties and was familiar with boats, so he asked him to work on the ship.
There was nothing to do all the way, and Rong Laosan came to Xingjun City as early as six days ago. followed the merchants into Xingjun City, and Rong Laosan quit his job and waited. Rong Laosan was most afraid of missing everyone, so he stayed in the guest house every day until the night fast. At the beginning, there was Sichuan capital given by Lu Zijing, but he could still live in the lowest guest house, and in the past two days, Sichuan capital will be exhausted, only enough to live in the hotel, and it is not enough to even buy food. Fortunately, Wu Di was out on a horse today, otherwise I am afraid I would have missed it.
Although their journeys were difficult and dangerous, everyone was overjoyed when they met again, and even Lu Zijing couldn't stop smiling. Rong Cheng sat beside Rong Laosan and asked long and short questions, changing his previous few words.
Half a day later, when the night was approaching, the group finally returned to the first male city in the east of the Great Shadow, Dingjun City. The scale of Dingjun City is much larger than that of Xingjun City, and it is located on the north bank of Weishui. In the afterglow of the setting sun, hundreds of soldiers are smearing the obsidian on the towering walls. Rongcheng has never left Rongcheng County since he was a child, and Xingjuncheng has amazed him, and he was even more stunned when he saw the majestic momentum of Dingjuncheng at this time.
When they arrived at the Governor's Mansion, Dingjun Prefecture Assassin Shi, Beijia and other officials and subordinates of the Governor's Mansion were already waiting in the Governor's Mansion. Liu Dongzhi briefly asked about political and military affairs for a few days, and then asked the officials to disperse. Liu Sanzhi and the others were injured, and they were tired all the way, and after eating, they went back to their rooms to rest. Liu Sanzhi wanted to say something to Liu Dongzhi, but when he saw that Liu Dongzhi wanted to talk to Yu Jiangtao and Lu Zijing, he went with Wu Di and others.
Liu Dongzhi waved away the slaves and servants, and only himself, Yu Jiangtao, and Lu Zijing were left in the hall. Lu Zijing has taken the medicine, and his spirit has improved a lot. "Senior brother, have you sent someone to report to the master?!" Lu Zijing said half-lying on the couch.
"As soon as I joined the Xing Army, I have already sent people to Xing'an. "The way of willow movement. "Now Master, his old man should be able to rest assured. Wait for Xiaoxiong and Shaofeng to come back. You will raise it for two days, and then we will set off for Hung Yen. ”
"This time, Tianyi Fengming and his entourage not only brought back to hold a scripture, but also accidentally got seven original pearls. I hope it will be of great help to Master's recovery. "The way of willow movement.
Lu Zijing smiled bitterly and shook his head, and briefly said the cultivation method of hugging a classic. Holding a sutra is only suitable for the cultivation of the bloodline of the Tianliu Imperial Family. Liu San's Qi Sea and Qi Yuan were shattered, completely relying on the power of the direct bloodline and the Mixed Yuan Technique, and by chance, it was only by luck that it could be re-condensed. Liu Dongzhi and Yu Jiangtao were also very regretful and disappointed.
Lu Zijing said in detail the secret hiding of the human emperor again, and when Lu Zun was mentioned, the three of them sighed again and again, and they were speechless for a long time.
is still Liu Dongzhi's open-mindedness: "Okay, don't mention the second child for the time being." Sixth, the man in black you met in the secret vault of the Human Emperor, you can't see any clues?"
Lu Zijing shook his head: "That person's cultivation is very high, and he deliberately conceals his own exercises, and his body method is swift and fluctuating. I can't think of a famous master. ”
Yu Jiangtao interjected: "Don't worry about him, just let the old guys of the Zhongzhou League have a headache." It's the person who is suspected of being the fourth uncle, boss, tell us about it?!"
Liu Dongzhi said with a smile: "That involves the past when the master was in his prime, and many years have passed. Back then, the first king, master, my grandfather and other five people were all brothers with different surnames, roaming the world, challenging the masters of the five sects, and the end made the five sects have a headache. Yu Jiangtao said suspiciously: "I can cross the five sects with the master, why have I never heard of their deeds over the years?"
Liu Dongzhi said: "You were challenged by people blocking the mountain gate, and you have been defeated repeatedly, but you are embarrassed to say it? Besides, the master has a special identity, how can you show your true face?"
Yu Jiangtao nodded, and said: "Why didn't the five of them come to the big shadow together to plan the world together?" Liu Dongzhi shook his head and said: "Master once said that the five of them are all arrogant people, although they have the same ambition but different positions, and finally go their separate ways. It's a pity that my grandfather is obsessed with holding a warp, otherwise... At the mention of his father, Liu Dongzhi's face couldn't help but darken, and he felt sad.
Lu Zijing saw that it touched Liu Dong's heart, and hurriedly diverted the topic: "Senior brother, the fifth senior brother led the troops north, how is the current situation?" Liu Dongzhi came back to his senses: "A few days ago, I received a report that Ronghai converged with 50,000 allied troops in Zhongzhou, ambushed the Zhenrong Seven Coalition Army in the north, broke it, beheaded 20,000, captured 40,000, harvested countless cattle, sheep and horses, and drove Zhenrong directly out of the Jiyu border 300 miles away. He will return to his division in the near future. ”
Yu Jiangtao rubbed his hands excitedly and said regretfully: "Let the fifth child make meritorious service again." Boss, let me just say, why do Master, Master, and you just ignore my every attempt to fight? I have been in Lingzhou for several years, and I have not suffered any major battles, and I have been idle to death! How long have you let me be idle?"
Liu Dongzhi sneered: "Don't shout at me here. You have the ability to call in front of the master!" Yu Jiangtao muttered vaguely, not daring to speak. Liu Dongzhi said: "The real force is great, otherwise the Zhongzhou League will not sign a contract with us." Although Rong Hai helped the Zhongzhou League to repel the Zhenrong Seven Divisions this time, it was only a small setback to Zhenrong's spirit. Master once said that in the future, if Zhenrong rises, sooner or later it will threaten my Great Shadow Northwest, and your Lingzhou will be a place where you will face the enemy directly with Zhenrong. You can fight it!"
Yu Jiangtao said: "This master also told me. But now I only have 20,000 border troops under my command, and there are not many high-level cultivators in the army. I have the air to lead the shadow wings, but according to the system, I can't mobilize more government guards, how can I fight when the battle comes?
Lu Zijing said: "This is the rule set by the master, how can you break it?" Liu Dongzhi said: "Don't worry, third child, there will be no major events on your side for the time being in the past two years." What you need to do most now is to suppress the restlessness of your Yu clan, don't forget Master's good intentions to let you return to Lingzhou against public opinion back then! The reason why the Zhongzhou League signed a contract with my big shadow now is not only because of the heavy pressure of Zhenrong in the north and west, but also because of the unity within my big shadow and the prosperity of the army. Since the signing of the treaty, the five sects have sent people to our big shadow to contact the deceased and visit relatives and friends, but they don't intend to stir up internal disputes among us?"
More than 100 years ago, the remnants of Tianliu were in turmoil, the northwest and southwest fish countries and secret countries were destroyed, and the Tho country moved westward. No one in the Five Sects and the Zhongzhou League was willing to quell the rebellion, and the first generation of Ying Gong was ordered to lead the five marginal and sinful children and the descendants of Tianliu and Tianliu to descend 10,000 each, and 30,000 slave troops, a total of 50,000 Ma Xi sent out the army to quell the rebellion. At that time, the five sects of Zhongzhou just wanted to exhaust each other. Before he thought that the first generation of the shadow was wise and brave, it took only three years to subdue Sanrong, integrate the scattered Northwest Fish and Mi countries, and then expand the territory in the south, laying the pattern of the big shadow.
In the past 100 years, especially since Su Wu was in power, its momentum has been like a rainbow, not only the national strength is at its peak, the military appearance is strong, but also the talents are numerous, and the strong ones have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. This gradually attracted the attention of the five sects of Zhongzhou, and was gradually regarded as a thorn in the side of the Zhongzhou League, and they wanted to get rid of it quickly.
In addition to fighting head-on with the big shadow for many years, the Zhongzhou League has also used all kinds of assassination and bewitching methods. The big shadow is powerful and high-ranking families, and more than seventy percent are inextricably linked with the five sects in Zhongzhou. The Zhongzhou League moved with affection and allowed it to benefit, and the big film magnates were quite dissatisfied with Su Wu's restructuring, so there was the change in Xing'an that year. And the nobles of the two countries, there are not a few who secretly have the heart to restore the country...
The big shadow is not monolithic, and the dark tide is surging. The seven sons of Ying Wu were taught by Su Wu's words and deeds, and they were always of one mind with Su Wu, but how could the two fish and secret descendants, such as Yu Jiangtao and Gao Ronghai, not be disturbed by the clan elders? Yu Jiangtao sighed: "No matter what, the people in the clan can't control me. Master is here, I listen to Master, Master is not here, I listen to you! ”
"Phew!Phew!Phew!Phew, what nonsense, Master, his old man has no borders, it's okay!" Liu Dongzhi gave Yu Jiangtao a slap and spat on him.
Liu Dongzhi then said: "Okay, let's not talk about this. In this year's film test, why did the master insist on accepting apprentices to teach despite the king's obstruction. You all know why, right?" Yu Jiangtao and Lu Zijing nodded silently.
"In this Yingwu admission test, a few of us must do enough work to deter those who are fluctuating, so that the master's restructuring can be implemented. If anything bad happens, I will kneel in front of my sister's grave for three days and three nights. Liu Sanzhi pretended to be evil and said fiercely.
"Don't worry, the old guys in the family can't stop me! Yu Jiangtao laughed loudly.
