A day later

Four ghost-like figures swept into the Beimang Imperial City,

Cheng Long, Luoyang, Huang Zhentu, Wu Liuding.

The four of them entered the Beimang Imperial City without stopping for the slightest, and swept directly into the palace.

At this moment, the Empress Beimang, who is famous for her iron blood, is having a routine court meeting.

After a few breaths, before the Empress Beimang could shout out the retreat, the guards outside the hall flew into the hall one after another.

Immediately, Cheng Long and the four of them slowly walked into the hall.

Empress Beimang sat on the golden dragon chair, raised her eyebrows and looked at Cheng Long, who was in the lead, and sneered: "The Jianghu people of Liyang? There are many Jianghu people who have entered the palace to assassinate me over the years, but you are still the strongest group, let's talk about your purpose." ”

Speaking of this, the Empress Beimang seemed to be asking and answering herself, and quickly continued: "Famous in the world, glory and wealth, I can give you these, as long as you stay and die for my Beimang, how about it?"

When the words of the Empress Beimang fell, the Tuoba Bodhisattva led by the military generals stepped out and stopped the way of the four people approaching the Empress of Beimang, and a large number of martial artists with cultivation close to the first rank and so came out of the hall.

"Lao Huang, take out the sword. ”

Cheng Long grinned, he didn't mean to deal with the Empress Beimang at all.

Huang Zhentu gently patted the sword box, nine famous swords came out of the box, the qi machine controlled the eight sword weapons, and the Yellow Reed Sword that was retrieved from Emperor Wu City in his hand, with his own strength, he forced the masters raised by the Beimang Imperial Court to leave the palace.

Luoyang's eyes turned into purple and red again, and he stopped in front of Tuoba Bodhisattva with a smile, and said in a deep voice: "The world says that you are the first person in the Beimang military and the first person in the Beimang rivers and lakes, I don't believe it." ”

Wu Liuding pressed his right hand on the hilt of the sword, and stood silently beside Luoyang, although he didn't speak, but the momentum emanating from his body made everyone feel suffocated.

This group of people, it seems that their combat power can be ranked in the top ten of the martial arts evaluation!

Such beings are gathered together, and unless a large army is mobilized, who can stop them?

Empress Beimang also straightened her face, sat up straight from the golden dragon chair, her eyes fell tightly on Cheng Long's face, and she raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that you are their leader, and you can gather a few such strong people, I am starting to be a little curious about you." Tell me, what are your requirements?"

Empress Beimang is a legend, but when she and Cheng Long look at each other, she still feels an inexplicable awe.

It seems that the one standing in front of him is not a living martial arts knight, but a god who came out of a certain mythical story!

"I want you to go north, raise troops to the south, and attack Liyang!"

Cheng Long put his hands on his back, and a faint smile appeared on his white face.

"Attack Liyang, is this kid crazy?"

"Not to mention that Liyang's territory far exceeds my Beimang, and the 300,000 Beiliang Iron Riders are also an insurmountable barrier!"

"It's really ridiculous, do you think that with a little force, you can control my Beimang court?"

The civil and military officials of Beimang also discussed a lot, and scoffed at Cheng Long's request.

"The widow once said that he didn't want to see Xu Xiao's heroic twilight, and he didn't want to ruin his reputation with his own hands, so as long as Xu Xiao didn't die for a day, the widow would not raise troops to go south!"

Empress Beimang stared at Cheng Long directly, as if she wanted to see through Cheng Long's whole person.

"Snort. ”

Cheng Long sneered, shook his head gently, and said loudly: "It's just a nice thing to say, you don't want to attack Liyang because you know very well what kind of man Xu Xiao is, and you also know very well that although the Beiliang Iron Cavalry claims to be 300,000, if Xu Xiao is in charge, the number of Beiliang men who dare to die is definitely more than this number, plus Chen Zhibao will definitely rebel after Xu Xiao's death, so you want to take advantage of the fisherman." ”

Cheng Long's words expressed the true thoughts of the Empress Beimang.

This legendary emperor, although he has the meaning of friendship with Xu Xiao, but he is more afraid of the cohesion of the entire Beiliang when Xu Xiao is alive, sitting in this position for so many years, if the Empress Beimang has no ambition, the civil and military officials under her will not rely on her.

"Humph!"

Empress Beimang snorted coldly, frowned and said: "Whether the widow is concerned with the friendship with Xu Xiao or the jealous of Xu Xiao who is alive, there is no difference in essence, if Xu Xiao does not die for a day, it will be impossible for the widow to raise troops to the south for a day, you should know this very well!"

Empress Beimang's words made the civil and military forces in the court echo one after another, if they had a choice, of course they would be more willing to face a Bei Liang without Xu Xiao.

"But if you don't fight now, you'll miss the best opportunity!"

Cheng Long's angry shout directly shocked the Chinese Wu, and then continued: "Now that Xu Xiao is far away in Tai'an City, it is impossible to return to Beiliang in the fastest time, the son Xu Fengnian has not established enough prestige, he can't lead the army at all, Chen Zhibao is also alone in Shu, maybe he is still in a certain area, being chased by the Beiliang Eagle Dog, at this time, if you don't attack, when Xu Fengnian becomes the next Xu Xiao, can you still kill Xu Fengnian?"

"Xu Fengnian... The next Xu Xiao?" Empress Beimang frowned slightly, "But, you are just an outsider, why should I believe you?"

"Huh. ”

Cheng Long sneered, and responded in a cold voice: "Of course you can not believe me, then you can see how long Tuoba Bodhisattva can protect you, and see how the children of your Murong family died in our hands one by one." You can also see how these civil and military officers under your command died tragically at home one by one! You can not fight, but they will force you to fight! I will give you a chance to choose, not a chance to bargain. ”

......

Three days later

Liyang Dynasty

Tai'an City, Imperial Palace

Now that Zhao Dan, who is the king of a country, he slammed a seal in his hand on the table, and his face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping.

Not long after the news of Han Shengxuan's death came out, a civil official immediately played an impeachment, saying that the power that the eunuch group now controls is too great, and it used to be because Han Shengxuan served Zhao Dian for nearly half of his life and did not say it directly, but now that Han Shengxuan is dead, some things have to be done.

In this case, Zhao Dian would mostly sneer and scold angrily in his heart: "Bullshit!"

This group of so-called Qingliu civil officials is looking at the face of Han Shengxuan who has served him for most of his life, these people are completely worried that Han Shengxuan will kill people in anger, and now after the news of Han Shengxuan's death spreads, no one has come forward to refute the rumors so far, so they jumped out and eagerly wanted to take away the rights of the eunuch group!

Replacing Han Shengxuan's service to Zhao Dan, he was a little eunuch with red lips and white teeth.

Seeing Zhao Dian so out of shape, the little eunuch stood silently and waited, and waited until Zhao Tun's anger was almost gone, and then he slowly spoke: "Holy Lord, the spies on the Beimang side sent back the news, saying that the Beimang Eight Prefecture Iron Cavalry was assembling at the border. There are also spies from Beiliang who also came back with news, saying that Chen Zhibao seriously injured Xu Weixiong, although Qi Dangguo led troops to save Xu Weixiong in time, but now Xu Weixiong is still unconscious in Beiliang Palace, and it is said that the best result is also lifelong disability. ”

Zhao: "......"

After a moment of silence, the emperor, who played most of the world, nodded slightly, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

It wasn't until today that he understood what it meant to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.

Xu Xiao is still in Tai'an City, Chen Zhibao is alone in Shu, and the generals who can be used by Beiliang are none other than Chu Lushan, Qi Dangguo, and Yuan Zuozong, but these three people are considered top generals under Xu Xiao, and it is tantamount to a fool's dream to let them lead the army alone to fight against Beimang!

"Pass on General Gu Jiantang, pass on Xu Xiao, King of Beiliang!"

Zhao Dian looked at the little eunuch with red lips and white teeth, and gritted his teeth and said.

This matter involves the safety of the country, it is not just a political struggle, he didn't expect his two-pronged strategy to work so quickly, so fast that even he himself was not prepared, and Beimang's side had already begun to act!
