Chapter 242: Purge
Qu Shang saw that Feng Chang and Chen Wen were coming, and without waiting for the two of them to join the battle, he took the lead and sneered and said to Yin Xuan: "I thought that Prince Dayin had some backbone, at least he wouldn't bully the few with more and the widow with the others, and he just wanted to fight alone with me like a man, but I didn't expect that you also brought two helpers." ”
He scoffed, "If you think you can't beat me, why do you come along?" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Yin Xuan to refute anything, he said again: "It's still that you came here just to make a show, so that people can see the majesty of your Great Prince Yin, but in fact, you are just a puppet straw bag." ”
In fact, Qu Shang knew that Yin Xuan was not a puppet straw bag, and in the past six years, Yin Xuan's reputation had already spread after successive wars.
No one would think he was a straw bale.
But Qu Shang still said so, it was nothing more than agitating Yin Xuan.
Who is Yin Xuan?
Even though he is not very old, he has a great city government since he was a child, and he is far more calm than his peers, he knows very well what he wants and what he should do, and he will never be influenced by any outsiders.
Qu Shang wanted to provoke him, but it was completely useless.
Yin Xuan listened to Qu Shang's words, his eyebrows were raised, a thin sneer escaped from the corner of his lips, and he said in a contemptuous and even full of three-point anger tone: "It's true that I'm the prince, but I'm not a gentleman, if you can win or win, no matter what method he uses, didn't you also use a lot of indiscriminate tricks?" If you can use it, why can't we? Originally, I really didn't want to use one to three, to bully the few, to bully the widow with the many, but now that you say this, I think it's good to be angry with you, I really wanted to kill you with my own hands, and I didn't plan to let others interfere, but now I think that as long as I can kill you, it doesn't matter if I killed you with my own hands, it's my style to fight quickly. ”
After he finished speaking, he didn't give Qu Shang a chance to speak again, and shouted loudly: "Feng Chang, Chen Wen slashed, kill him together!" ”
With Yin Xuan's words, Feng Chang and Chen Wen slashed without stopping, slashing and arrowing, and attacked from behind resolutely.
Qu Shang can win one-on-one hanging, and now it is one to three, and soon it is full of colors, with more gas and less air intake.
When he was stabbed off the horse by Yin Xuan's arrow, he looked up at Yin Xuan in front of him with his bloody face, and laughed: "Originally, I just wanted to die with you alone, but now you have two more cushions, and you are still the two great generals of the Great Yin Empire, and it is worth my death!" ”
The words fell, the laughter fell, and he quickly took out the fire fold from his bosom, lit it, and threw it somewhere underground.
Yin Xuan, Feng Chang and Chen Wen were puzzled by his behavior, and in a blink of an eye, the fire rushed to the sky, flying up from the foot of the city wall, and the burning city walls were all in danger, making a cracking sound, and then the fire was extremely fast, down the wind, and soon turned from a point to a line, and then turned into an arc, encircling Yin Xuan, Feng Chang and Chen Wenqi.
Seeing that the fire was besieging them, Qu Shang laughed louder and more rampantly.
Of course, because he was also in the battle, he was also surrounded, but he was not afraid, he stood there and said to them: "You also taste the power of this oil fire, what was invented by the ancestors of Da Yin, as the prince of this generation, as a general, you should really appreciate it." ”
Qu Shang was seriously injured, he was a little physically exhausted, and he sat down.
Although it was not close to the area of the oil fire ring, when the fire started, the fire was full of fire, and the heat rushed like a wave, and the burning people's faces hurt.
Qu Shang didn't plan to escape, he sat there and didn't move, looking coldly at Yin Xuan, Feng Chang and Chen Wenqi's faces suddenly changed when they saw the fire rushing up, and they were furious.
The three of them looked at the fire that was about to be dyed, and knew that there was no time to delay, so Yin Xuan immediately made a decision and let Feng Chang and Chen Wen rush out first.
Feng Chang and Chen Wenqi both looked at him with solemn faces: "Let's go together." ”
Yin Xuan turned his head, looked at Qu Shang, who was almost overwhelmed by the fire, and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to kill him first." ”
As soon as Feng Chang heard this, he immediately grabbed his arm to prevent him from really rushing into the fire, glanced in the direction of Qu Shang, and said coldly: "He will definitely die, you don't need to do anything more." ”
Chen Wenqi also said: "The fire is too big, if you rush over and come back like this, you may miss the best opportunity to escape, he is seriously injured, and now he is digging his own grave, and the gods can't save him." ”
Yin Xuan knew, but he had to slaughter Qu Shang with his own hands to rest assured and relieve his anger.
But Yin Xuan also knew that if he rushed over at this time, he would definitely be blocked by Feng Chang and Chen Wen, so he hummed in a low voice, took the hands of the two of them and rushed out of the fire ring.
When the fire trigger is ignited, all the oil fire buried in the ground will burst into flames, and the ground will be burned beyond recognition, and the three people will rush out by stepping on the foundation stone of the ground burning the oil fire.
They had no shield, so they could only protect their heads with their hands and protect their bodies with internal force, and rush outward.
But seeing that he was about to rush out, Yin Xuan suddenly opened his arms again, hit Chen Wen on the back with his left hand, and hit Feng Chang on the back with his right hand, and when the two of them were defenseless, they beat the two of them out, and when the two of them yelled angrily and shouted the word "Yin Xuan", Yin Xuan quickly turned around and rushed towards Qu Shang.
The sword of the Son of Heaven split the fire, and a sword pierced Qu Shang's forehead, even if he died, Yin Xuan wanted him to die without a place to be buried, when he took back the sword, the sword flower swept away, and the fire was actually wrapped around the tip of his sword, and was driven by his internal force, and then the fire was like a fire dragon flying out, roaring into Qu Shang's forehead, and then jumped into his body, burning him to ashes.
Everyone saw it when the fire spread from the walls.
The soldiers on both sides of the battle paused their movements and looked towards the city walls.
As soon as the left wing saw that the oil fire was burning, he knew that Qu Shang must be more than lucky, he shouted, and desperately swung his sword to slash and kill the Da Yin soldiers, seeing that one by one, cut until his eyes were red and his wrists trembled, and he didn't stop.
Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei and Yin Tianye didn't know where Qu Shang had led Yin Xuan, nor did they know where Feng Chang and Chen Wen had gone, they only knew that there was a fire burning along the city wall, and they didn't know that that place was the place where Qu Shang and Yin Xuan fought a decisive battle.
Seeing the fire coming, the three generals immediately ordered the soldiers to enter the city, and then the soldiers of Dayin rushed into the city like crazy.
The war was in full swing, and the blood swept through the sky over the Shang Kingdom.
Seeing that Qu Guo, who was fighting for the state, immediately sent troops to support him.
But it was useless, Qu Shang died, the left wing was also surrounded, the left sword and the right sword were injured, and finally died in battle, and the Shang soldiers scattered as birds and beasts, died and fled.
The city wall was burned down by the fire, and it was broken inch by inch, and after the oil fire burned out, the ground was all charred, and as far as the eye could see, there were ruins and broken tiles, which was unbearable to see.
Nie Qingwan didn't enter the city, Ren Ji and Nie Yin had been guarding her, and there were a thousand Da Yin soldiers left behind her, who were also guarding her.
When the fire burned, Nie Qingwan saw it, and Ren Ji and Nie Yin also saw it.
Ren Ji said: "If it burns like this, the city will be destroyed." ”
Nie Yin said: "This is probably Qu Shang's bad intentions, I would rather destroy it than let Da Yin get it." ”
Ren Ji said: "Even if it is destroyed and razed to the ground, Da Yin can transform it into a rich land, and the abacus of the Qu merchant will not work." ”
After speaking, he looked at Nie Qingwan: "Does the Queen Mother think what the slave said is right?" ”
Nie Qingwan said lightly: "That's right, Qu Shang actually knows this truth, but he is willing to destroy this place, he not only destroys the land, but also destroys the people, which shows how deep his hatred for Da Yin is." ”
Ren Ji sighed slightly: "Da Yin has existed for so many years, and there are many enemies, and it is not strange to have one or two enemies like Qu Shang. ”
Nie Qingwan answered: "Yes, so the grass must be cut to the roots, otherwise there will be endless troubles." ”
The two of them thought it was true, thinking of the last time the Queen Mother ordered the slaughter of the city, and at the same time, the two of them sighed and couldn't help but be impressed by the Queen Mother's calmness, wisdom and ruthlessness.
Slaughter all the people in the city, whether old or young, women or young, even animals.
Not everyone can be so ruthless.
It is rare for a sixteen-year-old woman to have such courage.
However, the Queen Mother can provoke a country's pillar at the age of ten, and it is indeed not comparable to ordinary women.
The two of them stopped talking, quietly guarding Nie Qingwan's side, looking up at the land in front of them that was gradually silent.
Soon, the city died, and the Shang Kingdom, along with the Qu Kingdom, disappeared under this sky.
When the Great Yin Army Flag was planted on the scorched ground by the soldiers, Nie Qingwan took Ren Ji and Nie Yin, as well as the 1,000 Great Yin soldiers, to the scorched earth.
When Nie Qingwan entered the territory, Yin Xuan, Chen Wenqi and Feng Chang also joined up.
Yin Xuan just shook Feng Chang and Chen Wen out of the fire circle with his left and right palms, he ran to kill Qu Shang with his own hands, and then used the Son of Heaven Sword to lead all the fire to Qu Shang, and after exiting safely, Feng Chang and Chen Wen slashed at him left and right.
Although he was fine, they still counted him down on the road for a long time.
After meeting with Nie Qingwan and Nie Buwei, Nie Xifeng and Yin Tianye, he didn't forget to talk about Yin Xuan's actions again in front of them.
Several people listened and looked at Yin Xuan.
Yin Xuan's thirteen-year-old handsome face was red from the fire, and his hair was burned and curly, his face should have been black before, but he had wiped it with his sleeve, so there were black marks on some parts of his face, and with the red skin, it looked a little infiltrating.
Nie Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted.
Nie Yin held her with both hands and sent her off the horse.
When Nie Qingwan went down, she lifted her skirt and walked in front of Yin Xuan.
After reading his face, I went to see Feng Chang and Chen Wen's slash.
Their faces were red and black, and their hair was charred and curly.
Nie Qingwan asked, "The fire just now was ordered by Qu Shang?" ”
Yin Xuan nodded.
Chen Wenqi and Feng Chang also nodded.
Feng Chang said: "At first, we didn't know, but later we learned that Qu Shang deliberately led us there, which is the place to light the fuel and fire primer, and he wanted to die with Yin Xuan, but he didn't know that Yin Xuan's sword could block oil and fire, and it could also cause fire to burn himself." ”
After Feng Chang finished speaking, he told the story of Yin Xuan using the Son of Heaven Sword to lead a fire to Qu Shang just now.
After hearing this, several people were surprised again.
This is the first time I've heard that the Son of Heaven Sword is still so powerful.
Of course, they didn't know what the power of the Son of Heaven Sword was, because it had never been used.
And they are still young, and the Son of Heaven Sword and Heavenly Son who follows is Yin Xuan, even if Feng Chang has followed Emperor Yin Zu, but how old is Feng Chang now, how old is Emperor Yin Zu, when Feng Chang followed Emperor Yin Zu, Emperor Yin Zu did not go out in person, so Feng Chang has never seen the true power of the Son of Heaven Sword.
A few people paused, Yin Tianye said: "The oil rocket was invented by the ancestors of Great Yin, this oil rocket is powerful, and the oil fire is even more powerful, as a pioneer and ruler, they will definitely find a way to restrain it, and they must have made some improvements on the Son of Heaven sword, which is specially designed to resist this kind of extremely lethal oil fire damage, thinking that just now in a very dangerous situation, Yin Xuan just exerted this ability of this sword, so he had to use this fire to Qu Shang to protect himself." ”
After listening to this, several people felt that such an explanation was reasonable.
The ancestors of Great Yin were a group of crazy people, they could create oil fire, and naturally they could also create other things that could compete with them.
It's just that it's possible that the materials are too scarce, so it's only used on the Son of Heaven Sword.
Nie Xifeng nodded and said, "It should be like this." ”
Nie Buwei also nodded, echoing the same words.
Feng Chang and Chen Wenqi also felt that this was the case, and it was right.
Yin Xuan pursed his thin lips lightly, he didn't echo anything, he just lowered his head and glanced at the Tianzi Sword on his waist, just now, he just instinctively wanted to cut the fire, and the fire was wrapped around the tip of the sword, he didn't think much about it, now it seems that the fire can wrap around the tip of the sword, not because he controls it with internal force, but that the sword itself has the characteristics of resisting fire and causing fire.
Yin Xuan thought to himself, next time he would try it with fire.
A few people stood there talking, and asked Yin Xuan, Feng Chang and Chen Wenqi if they were injured, and when they saw the three of them shaking their heads, they were relieved when they knew that the three of them were fine.
Nie Qingwan was originally worried about Yin Xuan, but when she heard him say that it was okay, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
But seeing his burning red and black face, he still couldn't control it, and raised his hand to touch it.
It was very light, but Yin Xuan still felt the pain.
After all, there were minor burns.
He originally wanted to endure it, because this little pain was unbearable for him, but as soon as he saw Nie Qingwan's concerned eyes, he didn't want to endure it much.
Yin Xuan, who grew up slowly, also tasted it, as long as he was injured or a little uncomfortable, she cared about him very much, felt sorry for him, and even took care of him personally, and stayed with his bedside, and slept with him when he was not at ease.
Therefore, Yin Xuan, who was not very painful, gently 'hissed' after Nie Qingwan's hand stroked.
This 'hiss' was very light and low, but it was still heard by Nie Qingwan.
Nie Qingwan immediately asked him, "What's wrong?" Does it hurt? Is it still burned? ”
Yin Xuan's long eyelashes were gently dusted, and she looked at her and said, "It doesn't hurt." ”
Nie Qingwan said: "It hurts, it hurts, no one says about you." ”
Yin Xuan lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Nie Qingwan went to see Chen Wenqi and Feng Chang again, and asked them, "Are you also burned?" ”
Feng Chang and Chen Wen's situation was better than Yin Xuan's.
The two of them didn't feel burned, and their faces were a little uncomfortable, but they were far from the word 'injury'.
The two of them looked at Yin Xuan with a little puzzlement, not understanding how he could make a sound in pain, was it so painful?
The two of them didn't hurt, so they shook their heads at Nie Qingwan and said it was okay.
However, the two of them had just exited the fire circle at a very early stage, but Yin Xuan went in again, and it took a long time before he came out, and during that time, he suffered a second injury, which was more serious than them, and it was reasonable.
So the two of them also said to Nie Qingwan that Yin Xuan's face might be really burned, and he had to let Nie Zong take a look.
The kingdom of Qu and the kingdom of Shang have died, most of the land has been burned to charcoal, and the people are dying and running, and there is no one at this time.
But some rooms can still be used, Nie Qingwan asked people to go to the nearest room to let Yin Xuan rest, and asked Nie Zong to show his face, and asked other military doctors to show the soldiers to see the wounds and bandage.
Rest in place.
This break is ten days.
In the past ten days, Nie Qingwan has not been idle, first wrote a letter to Yin De, and then wrote a letter to Xia Qian, explaining the current situation to them, and asked Yin De to lead the ministers to discuss the division and naming of the state and town, etc., and also asked Yin De to discuss with Nie Wujing, dispatch the soldiers of Great Yin, and let Xia Qian recommend some people to come over to govern.
The letter fell into the hands of the two ministers, and they immediately went down to prepare.
Yin Xuan's face is burned, it is not serious, just apply the medicine.
Chen Wenqi and Feng Chang were not injured much, but they also applied medicine.
Yin Xuan applied it for five days, and they applied it for three days, and after that, the faces of the three people all returned to their original appearance.
After that, Nie Qingwan looked at the map of the remaining small countries with them, and then made the remaining siege plans.
There are not many small countries left, there are only a few, and the last one is Bayi, so Nie Qingwan means that after occupying Bayi, she will rest in Bayi for a while before making plans.
Do the math, starting in May, you won't be able to reach Bayi until at least August.
Fengqiu has been destroyed, all the small countries in the south have fallen into the hands of the great Yin, the war has been devastated, the people are not able to make a living, the only good thing is that under the poison of such war, the locust service that ravages in the south every summer has completely disappeared.
This was probably the only thing that all the surviving citizens of the small country saw in this war.
Naturally, it was also a gratifying thing that Nie Qingwan saw.
Qu Guo was destroyed, Shang Guo was destroyed, Qu Shang and some of his henchmen were all wiped out, and Nie Qingwan was really relieved at this time.
Yin Xuan was also relieved, he was a Qu merchant with his own hands, and he was not afraid of his cunning rabbit three holes.
The biggest bandit leader is dead, and everyone is relieved.
For the next siege plan, they are very confident.
After ten more days of rest, the group prepared and went south again, and it did not take three months, but almost two months, and at the end of July, the group reached the last city, where they would end the six-year war.
