Chapter 363: Begging for mercy
Chapter 363: Begging for mercy
In a dense mountain thicket, the 160,000 overlord soldiers were exhausted, lying on the ground at will, sleeping soundly with their eyes closed, this was the first time they had rested since they attacked the Heavenly Sword Palace.
"General, the ancient lord issued an edict declaring that we are not guilty and we can return to China!"
A general flew in from a distance, and said emotionally, this is the news he found when he went to the nearby main city, with the influence of the current Ming Ancient Dynasty, any little news will spread all over the primeval continent.
"The ancient lord didn't doubt the general, it's great!"
Xiang Yu, who closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly opened his eyes, his tiger eyes were full of tears, and he showed a trace of excitement, he knew that he would not blame him for the rest of his life.
What made him happy was not just the edict of forgiveness of the crime, but the fact that he did not doubt him for the rest of his life and trusted him as always.
Having this king is the luck of a military general!
"General, we can go home!"
The deputy general smiled and said, the home of the overlord army is the Ming Dynasty, if there is no Ming Dynasty, it will become a duckweed that goes with the flow.
"Passing on the general order, return to the dynasty!"
Xiang Yu stood up and ordered loudly.
"No!"
The overlord sergeant who was still tired just now, like a chicken blood, reached the peak of his spirit, and quickly lined up, the national flag of the ancient Ming Dynasty and the banner of the overlord army, waving in the wind.
Xiang Yu rode on the black horse, pulled the reins, and walked forward, preparing to walk out of this jungle and return to the official road.
But he didn't notice that the number of plants and shrubs around him had quietly increased a lot, and the canopy at the end of the jungle was also shrouded in a thin layer of mist, which was extremely evil.
"Turn!"
An illusory figure, floating in the jungle, walked into a 10,000-year-old tree, and dissipated without a trace.
Thundered!
The ground began to tremble, the bushes began to move irregularly, and the clear sky, covered with a layer of blood, lost its color.
"Attention everyone!"
Xiang Yu was startled, raised his spear high, and looked around vigilantly.
Hundreds of thousands of overlord sergeants hurriedly set up formations, and when they encounter danger, this is already a body memory that goes deep into the bone marrow, and it can be done without human orders.
At this moment, the light of the ancient tree bloomed, forming countless mystical runes.
After the light dissipated, the Overlord Army was surprised to find that the trees that had just returned to green had now turned into countless gun-wielding soldiers, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, but judging from the formation of the battle columns, they were definitely the elite of the elite.
"Welcome to the Land of Despair, pass the general's test and get the general's inheritance!"
In the army transformed by the ancient tree, a tall general with a wooden spear walked out, his face was blurred, and he exuded a powerful charm.
It is this kind of rhyme that makes Xiang Yu's complexion change dramatically!
Military Road!
These tree-transformed armies are actually a god-level legion.
"Land of Despair, what is this place?"
Xiang Yu asked, unfamiliar with this place name.
"This is the place that can make you feel hopeless!"
The general holding the wooden gun laughed, the wooden gun pointed high, and countless trees transformed the soldiers, arranging a large array, and the power of the bloody spear military path filled the sky.
Xiang Yu and the others felt a sense of weightlessness hit them, and they lost consciousness.
"Ben General's Mausoleum, there are still fifty years to open, I hope you have the opportunity to obtain the full inheritance of Ben General. ”
Outside the jungle, Luo Champion stood on an ancient tree and muttered to himself.
Turning trees into soldiers is his handiwork!
......
Taiqing Sect!
"Ancestor, the plan has failed, this group of wastes in the Heavenly Alliance is actually not the opponent of the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty!"
The Taiqing Sect Master walked into a stone room and reported respectfully.
"Why is the power of the Ming Dynasty so strong?"
Taiqing Ancestor opened his eyes, revealing a trace of doubt, mixed with a little tiredness, and the whole person looked weaker and void than before.
This is the backlash of "Five Reincarnations of Life and Death"!
Within five years, if he can't take away the sexual purity of the most holy peak, he will explode and die under the backlash of the exercises, and hundreds of thousands of years of planning will come to naught.
Fortunately, the Taiqing Holy Son has already entered the Taiqing Secret Realm, and when he leaves the customs, he will have the peak cultivation of the Most Holy Peak!
The Taiqing Sect Master stood on the side and did not reply.
The strength of the ancient Ming Dynasty is like a fog, and for any force, it is impossible to spy on one or two, and can only use the word mystery to summarize everything.
"What realm has the Holy Son cultivated?"
After the Taiqing Ancestor was surprised, he returned to tranquility, the Great Ming Dynasty was far away from the Taiqing Sect, even if he had the heart to dominate the continent, it would not be able to affect his plan for a while.
"Back to the ancestor, it has reached the middle stage of the sainthood, and it is expected that within a year, it will be able to get out of the customs!"
The Taiqing Sect Master was stunned for a moment, he had a strange feeling, it seemed that the Ancestor was very concerned about the cultivation of the Holy Son, and he was a little anxious.
Cultivating in the Taiqing Secret Realm, breaking through to the peak of the Holy Peak is already a sure thing, why bother?
"Very good!"
The Taiqing Ancestor bowed his head, glanced at the Taiqing Sect Master, and said in a deep voice: "The ancestor's longevity, I'm afraid it's going to the limit, your talent is limited, and it is difficult to break through the Great Emperor Realm unless it is against the heavens!"
"Although the Holy Son is young, he is dozens of times more talented than you, and he has a great hope of breaking through the realm of the Great Emperor, and after the death of the ancestor, he can continue to sit in the Taiqing Sect instead of the ancestor. ”
Taiqing Ancestor's helpless voice was mixed with a hint of sadness, and those shrewd eyes were like rotten wood.
"Ancestor, you...... What's wrong?"
The Taiqing Sect Master was shocked and hurriedly asked, the Taiqing Ancestor is really too important to the Taiqing Sect.
If there were three longs and two shorts, the Taiqing Sect would suffer an unprecedented catastrophe.
"Don't worry, in a short time, the ancestor can still support!"
"You don't have to be too embarrassed, no matter what, before the fall of the ancestor, the ancestor will let the Taiqing Sect add a new Great Emperor Warrior. ”
Taiqing Ancestor said in a deep voice, with gray hair, no wind automatic.
"Ancestor Shengming!"
The Taiqing Sect Master was moved, prostrate on the ground, and shouted loudly.
......
Immortal Burial Ridge!
The lord of the main forces of the Heavenly Alliance, gathered together, looked a little decadent.
This military operation dealt a serious blow to their confidence, and the forces in the alliance were almost out, but they were still severely damaged by the Ming Dynasty and fell two great emperors.
Even against the Evil Spirit Clan, there is no such great sacrifice!
This time, everyone was a little panicked.
In case of......
The Ming Dynasty launched a retaliation, how should they resist?
"Alliance leader, you're talking!"
The Mandarin Duck Ancestor asked in a deep voice, from the perspective of the division of forces, the rear of the Abyss Emperor Dynasty is the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, if the Ming Dynasty retaliates, it will definitely be the first to be unlucky.
"Let's make peace!"
The Great Yan Emperor's eyebrows moved slightly, his fists were clenched, his green tendons exploded, and his face was full of grievances.
Sue for peace!
Since he ascended the throne, he has never delayed compromise, he has always bullied others, when has he ever suffered?
This time is different, though......
"That's all there is to it!"
Many emperors looked at each other, and they all saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.
Seeking harmony is not their original intention, but it is the best way at the moment, although they do so, they will sit and watch the Ming Dynasty become powerful.
But!
And what can be done?
If the strength is insufficient, you can only endure it and hold it!
"Let's talk about the Evil Soul Clan again, during this time, the Evil Spirit Clan is too quiet, and I have a hunch that this is just the calm before the storm. ”
The Great Han Emperor's words changed and said in a condensed voice.
Don't look at the Tianmeng and the Ming Dynasty, but the main contradiction still comes from the evil soul clan, one side is civil strife, and the other side is the invasion of foreign enemies, which is more important, it is obvious.
"It's not easy to do, the Heavenly Sword Ancestor and the Hongli Clan Patriarch have fallen, our strength has decreased sharply, if the Evil Spirit Clan attacks, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist. ”
The Demon Emperor shook his head and said, during this period of battle, although the Heavenly Alliance successfully blocked the invasion of the Evil Spirit Clan, the strong men and troops sacrificed were at least several times that of the Evil Spirit Clan.
The atmosphere in the hall has become solemn again!
The Spirit Emperor, the Abyss Emperor, the Great Cang Emperor and others were all silent.
"Or, let's ask the Ming Dynasty to take action and resist the invasion of the evil soul clan together?"
Impermanence Ancestor spoke up, in his opinion, this is the best way to resist the Evil Spirit Clan, and even defeat the Evil Spirit Clan, kill the Ten Thousand Evil Emperors, and avenge the Impermanence Mansion.
The Great Yan Emperor who was sitting in the first place frowned, a little displeased, and invited back to the Ming Dynasty again, then his position would be more embarrassing.
After all, some time ago, he was still spreading rumors on the mainland that the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty had defected to the Evil Soul Clan, once the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty returned to the Heavenly Alliance, the rumors were self-defeating, so the previous efforts would not be in vain?
With the strength of the Ming Dynasty, can he keep the position of the leader of the alliance?
There is another person who is also hostile to the return of the Ming Dynasty to the Heavenly Alliance, and that is the Abyss Emperor.
Xiang Yu led the overlord army and defeated the Abyss Emperor Dynasty back to the Abyss Ancient Dynasty, and the country was destroyed, so that he had no place to stay until now, which can be described as a loss of face.
With this kind of hatred, how could he be willing to return to the Ming Dynasty?
"I don't agree!"
The Abyss Emperor said sonorously and powerfully.
The Great Yan Emperor's eyes flashed, he didn't speak, and he didn't know what the hell he was thinking.
"Since you don't agree, then you should come up with a solution to the evil soul clan!"
The reincarnation ancestor said.
"I don't care about anything else, but the Ming Dynasty resolutely can't return to the Heavenly Alliance. The Abyss Emperor stood up and strode out of the temple: "Between the Abyss Emperor Dynasty and the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty, there can only be one force left in the Heavenly Alliance!"
"Abyss Emperor Dynasty, it's the Abyss Ancient Dynasty now!"
The reincarnation ancestor muttered coldly, not loudly, but all the great emperor warriors present were naturally heard clearly.
The Abyss Emperor stumbled and almost fell to the ground, but he didn't care about refutating and hurriedly left.
It's a shame!
"Ahem......"
The Great Yan Ancient Dynasty put his hand to his mouth, pretended to cough, attracted everyone's attention, and said: "Whether the Great Ming Ancient Lord returns or not, this matter will not be discussed for the time being, or solve the impact of the battle first, who is willing to send the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty?"
When the Emperor of the Great Han and the others heard this, they tilted their heads to the side and pretended not to hear.
This made the Great Yan Emperor Extremely speechless, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Since no one wants to go, then I, as the leader of the Heavenly Alliance, should also make a contribution, and I will send the Great Ming Ancient Dynasty!"
"Good!"
The Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty turned his head, learned from the old Taoist priest in the deep mountains, and arched his hand.
......
The Great Ming Dynasty!
"Ancient Lord, five days later, the Great Yan Emperor will make a state visit to our country on behalf of the Heavenly Alliance!"
Guo Jia walked into the Tai'an Hall and said with a smile, Emperor Dayan, as the lord of the Heavenly Alliance, came to visit the Ming Ancient Dynasty, which is equivalent to surrendering defeat in disguise.
After all, the two sides are in a hostile relationship!
"Entertained as an ordinary state visit!"
The rest of his life is plain.
The state visits designated by the Ming Dynasty are divided into three levels, tributary visits, ordinary state visits, and reciprocal state visits.
Tributary visits, which is easy to understand, are the vassal forces of the ancient Ming Dynasty, every once in a while, or at important times, send envoys to the ancient Ming Dynasty.
Ordinary national visits, but weak forces, sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty, greeted by officials of the Ministry of Rites, not too much attention.
A reciprocal state visit is an exchange between forces of the same level in the ancient Ming Dynasty, which was greeted by the prime minister or the king and led by officials to show importance.
The Great Yan Emperor came to visit, and he only started ordinary state visits for the rest of his life, which shows that he no longer took the Great Yan Emperor in his eyes, or he didn't take the Heavenly Alliance in his eyes.
"No!"
Guo Jia nodded in agreement, and after saluting respectfully, he withdrew from the Tai'an Palace.
Ministry of Rites!
This institution was not too important in the ancient Ming Dynasty, except for the sacrificial ceremonies, it did not have much presence, and it was not as good as the Ministry of Commerce where Heshen was located.
"Prime Minister, only sending five-grade officials to greet you is a bit out of line, after all, the identity of the Great Yan Emperor ......"
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stood on the side, his face in danger.
"Don't worry, this is an order issued by the ancient master, you just need to follow it, what do you need? ”
Guo Jia sat in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, his body was dissolute, without regard to etiquette, and drank the wine in a big gulp.
This person, when he is in a good mood, he can't help but have a drink and cultivate his sentiments.
"This ...... Alright!"
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief and said with his hand.
......
Five days later!
The east gate of Zhongjing City!
Lu Lu, the official of Wupinsan, with a few small officials, stood at the gate of the city, a red silk carpet, spread out from the city hole, fifty zhang long, and there were several old men on both sides who lost their teeth, standing tremblingly on the side.
This scene, Lu Lu has a toothache to watch!
"Is this to welcome the foreign envoy? or the Great Yan Emperor, the Lord of the Heavenly Alliance......
Lu Lu muttered to himself, if he wasn't honest and never offended anyone, he would even have to wonder if someone would be playing tricks behind his back and trying to fix him.
Above the city tower, Guo Jia and Wang Yangming played against each other, as long as they walked under the city, they could see the two figures.
"Prime Minister, isn't this a bit unauthentic?"
Wang Yangming held a black chess piece and landed on the chessboard, and the righteousness was pervasive, forming a general trend in the world.
"Didn't you come too?"
Guo Jia chuckled and dropped a white piece, and the Confucian spirit lasted forever, making the chessboard appear in the form of two tigers contending.
Under the two of them, there is the city cave!
Zhongjing City is forbidden to fly, if you want to enter the city, you can only go to the city cave, usually, no one is allowed in this location.
If you stand on someone, it means trampling people under your feet!
And this time, Guo Jia pulled Wang Yangming to play chess here, and Emperor Dayan entered the city from the city cave again, so ......
Silent humiliation!
Half an hour later, a streamer flew from the sky!
Emperor Da Yan led the team of envoys and landed at the gate of the city, when he saw Lu Lu, the official of Wupinsan, and Guo Jia and Wang Yangming, who were playing chess in the city tower, the expression on his face, not to mention how exciting!
"Ming Ancient Dynasty, you deceive people too much!"
The Great Yan Emperor roared in his heart, when he came, he thought that he would be humiliated, but he didn't expect it, just after arriving at the city gate, he encountered a problem.
Is it to go?
Or not to go?
