Chapter 66: Sword Fights for the World
The news that Bi Xuan and Meng Xunzhen were defeated in a duel was like a thunderbolt, which shocked everyone on the prairie. The shock was followed by complete madness. In the prairie that advocates martial arts, the name "Wuzun" Bi Xuan has even transcended the boundaries of the famous clan and has become a heavenly god revered by everyone. His death in battle also became a shame imprinted on all the steppe warriors.
Jieli is worthy of a generation of heroes, although he is also angry at Bi Xuan's death, but he is more keenly aware that this is a God-given opportunity for him to dominate the grassland and even enter the Central Plains. Therefore, he immediately raised the banner of revenge for Bi Xuan, and called on all the grassland peoples to contribute their greatest strength to form an unprecedentedly powerful coalition army, and use the blood of all Han people to wash away the shame that Meng Xunzhen gave to the grassland warriors.
For a time, the wind and clouds were surging on the prairie, and the depressing clouds of war were slowly approaching the Central Plains.
At the same time, the Central Plains is also changing, and the most shocking thing for the world is that the Song Valve in Lingnan finally revealed its long-hidden minions and officially intervened in the world's dispute. A month after Kou Zhong's secret visit to Song Valve, Song Que and Kou Zhong, two military geniuses, old and young, made efforts at the same time, echoing each other from afar in the south and north, and launched a lightning offensive against the large and small forces that had seized the south of the Yangtze River with the momentum of the wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. The two armies of Song Que and Kou Zhong were like the two world-famous divine weapons "Heavenly Sword" and "Moon in the Well" in their hands, and everywhere they went, they were like devastating and decaying, Yu Wenhua, Li Zitong, Shen Faxing, Zhu Can, and even the strongest Du Fuwei, Xiao Mo and Lin Shihong, successively hated under the soldiers of Song and Kou, among them, except for Li Zitong who fled overseas by boat, and Du Fuwei was disheartened and surrendered after being defeated by his godson Kou Zhong again, the rest all died with the fall of the kingdom they established.
After joining forces to level the south of the Yangtze River, Song Que announced the world, and the Song valve officially attached to the "Great Sui" that was nominally dominated by Yang Dong, but in fact controlled by Kou Zhong, and after Kou Zhong announced the reunification of the world, he would marry Song Yuzhi, the daughter of Song Que, as the main concubine. Everyone in the world has naturally guessed it. On the day of the unification of the world, Kou Zhong, who is now the king of Han, will definitely be promoted to the emperor as a matter of course, and Song Yuzhi will naturally become the queen of the main palace of the world.
Jiangnan has been decided, and Kou Zhong's eyes turn to the north. Dou Jiande, who is located in Hebei, is also a hero in the world, and because the relationship between Zhai Jiao and Liu Heimin has always been friendly, Kou Zhong also directly used troops, but asked Dou Jiande to have a meeting at the junction of the two forces. After some secret talks, Dou Jiande declared the world, led the whole army to reform, and joined the Great Sui. Dou Jiande has fallen. Youzhou Luo Yi and Yuyang's Gao Kaidao were quite self-aware and took the initiative to join Kou Zhong.
Since then, the general trend of the world has finally become clear, forming a dispute between Li Tang and Kou Zhong, and Kou Zhong, who sits on the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River, undoubtedly occupies a great advantage, and the only variable to change this situation is that Bashu has a rich and precipitous Bashu, and has not yet expressed his attitude Xie Hui.
In order to find out Xie Hui's attitude, Kou Zhong decided to make an appointment with him for a face-to-face meeting. The so-called "son of a daughter, can't sit down", with Kou Zhong's current identity. It was impossible to go to Bashu, where the enemy was not yet clear, so he asked Song Que to write a letter as a guarantee, and asked Xie Hui to meet at Pegasus Ranch.
On the appointed day, Xie Hui really arrived as promised. But the one who accompanied her was actually the elegant and immortal concubine.
Seeing Shi Fei Xuan, Kou Zhong's heart sank, remembering that Song Que seemed to have inadvertently talked about a past incident between him and Xie Hui and Fan Qinghui back then, and immediately understood why Song Que was not optimistic about the results of his trip before.
As a landlord, Shang Xiuxun invited everyone into the hall to talk. After the guest of honor is seated. Kou Zhong restrained the smile on his face, looked at Xie Hui on the other side and sighed, "It seems that the Lord of Xie Castle has made a choice!" Could it be that Fan Qinghui's face is more important than the peace of thousands of people in Bashu? ”
Xie Hui didn't expect Kou Zhong to be able to explain his thoughts in one word, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
The concubine on the side said: "King Han's words are wrong. The lord of the castle is not to take care of anyone's face, but for the peace of the world! Meng Xunzhen, a friend of the King of Han, acted recklessly outside the Saiwai, but brought disaster to the people of the Central Plains. As far as Fei Xuan knew, Jieli Khan had gathered 400,000 troops from all ethnic groups in the steppe, and he would soon march south. On the occasion of the life and death of Middle-earth, the king of Han did not think of uniting the heroes of the world to resist foreign humiliation, but instead launched a great expedition, wasting the strength of my Middle-earth in vain, how unwise? Concubine Xuan and the lord of Xie Bao came here to make a statement to the king of Han on behalf of the common people in the world, hoping that the king of Han could focus on the overall situation, take a break from fighting with Li Tang, and work together to overcome the catastrophe in front of him. ”
Xie Hui finally spoke, and said solemnly: "Xie can promise the King of Han that as long as the King of Han is invited by the concubine, Bashu will still remain neutral and will never fall to any side." ”
Kou Zhong snorted: "Brother Xunzhen once said that the sharpest thing in Cihang Jingzhai is not the sword but the tongue, and the younger brother completely believed it today." After a few words, the fairy put a big hat on the little brother's head. If the younger brother insists on starting a war with Li Tang, he will not only force Bashu to fall to Li Tang immediately, but also become a villain who disregards the safety of the common people. It's just that the younger brother still has something unclear, if the fairy really thinks about the common people, why not just persuade Li Tang to surrender to me Kou Zhong? You must know that the spread palm is always not as strong as the clenched fist, not the younger brother boasting, if the power of Li Tang is integrated again, I am fully sure that the Jiaojie profit will not come and go, and even counterattack the grassland, repeating the Wei Huo incident of the past, making it difficult for the grassland tribes to threaten Middle-earth within a hundred years. If you follow the fairy's plan, not to mention whether Li Tang can work with us with one heart and one mind, just the dogskin reversal between Jiancheng and Yuanji, if you don't drag me Kou Zhong's hind legs, it will be considered an eye-opener, what else can you talk about working together to resist the enemy? ”
Concubine Xuan didn't expect Kou Zhong's words to be so powerful, and she was speechless for a while, and only after a while did she smile bitterly: "Although what King Han said is not unreasonable, it is too idealistic. Li Tang's matter involves too much, how can Concubine Xuan decide it in one word? ”
"It turns out that the fairy can't settle Li Tang, so he came to me for Kou Zhong's trouble!" Kou Zhong was stunned and sneered, "Could it be that Kou looks like a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others?" ”
"Zhong Shao, don't be impatient." A clear voice came from outside the hall.
"Looking for my true brother!" Kou Zhong's face showed a look of sincere joy, got up and ran out with a gust of wind, and walked opposite Meng Xunzhen who stepped into the door, and immediately raised his thumb with a smile and praised, "Great, the little brother thought that Brother Xunzhen was casually joking, but I didn't expect that your trip to the grassland really killed Bi Xuan!" ”
Meng Xunzhen smiled: "You have done a good job here, you have already won two out of three in the world, it seems that it won't be long before I will change my name to you 'Majesty'!" ”
Kou Zhong smiled slightly embarrassedly: "Brother Xunzhen, don't make fun of the little brother. ”
The two walked into the hall with a smile, Meng Xunzhen met Shang Xiuxun and Xie Hui, Shi Fei Xuan and others, and said leisurely: "I have heard the words of Miss Fang Cai Xuan and Zhong Shao, Meng thinks that although foreign enemies must be guarded against, there should also be an ending to the battle between Middle-earth." Since Miss Concubine Xuan was worried that Li Tang's rivalry with Kou Zhong would deplete her strength against foreign enemies in the future, we might as well limit this war to a minimum. ”
Concubine Xuan was stunned for a moment, then showed shock, and her voice became extremely dry: "Brother Meng means ......"
Meng Xunzhen said lightly: "In the final analysis, the battle for the world depends on whose sword is sharper." I have admired Ning Daoqi, the first person in the Central Plains, for a long time, so I want to invite him to discuss sword competition. Let's put some bets on this joust. If Meng is defeated, according to what Miss Concubine Xuan said, Kou Zhong and Li Tang will temporarily stop fighting and join forces to defend against the enemy. ”
"Can Brother Meng be the master of the Han King?" Concubine Xuan asked, but her eyes glanced at Kou Zhong on the side.
Kou Zhong laughed and said, "What Brother Meng said is equal to what Kou Zhong said. ”
Concubine Xuan asked again: "If Brother Meng wins, what should we do on our side?" ”
Meng Xunzhen said casually: "Li Tang's lord Jingzhai can't do it, but he should do it for himself and Bashu." If Meng is lucky to win, he will ask the lord of Xie Bao to lead Bashu to join Kou Zhong, and at the same time, Miss Concubine Xuan will immediately return to the mountain gate, and within a hundred years, the disciples of Jingzhai will not be born! ”
With the cultivation of the senior concubine, his face couldn't help showing a look of anger, and he said with a slight anger: "Brother Meng, don't you think the bet between you and me is too unfair?" ”
"Haven't Miss Concubine Xuan heard a word?" Meng Xunzhen shook his head and smiled, and then said word by word, "Weak countries have no diplomacy!" ”
Concubine Xuan's face stiffened, and after a while, she said a little depressedly: "Concubine Xuan is taught." However, this matter is very important, and it is not up to Concubine Xuan to call the shots, and she has to ask her master before she can give Brother Meng an answer. (To be continued......)
