Chapter 169: Jun Ru Revenge
After a day and a night of cleanup, the civil strife in the army was finally quelled. After counting, this time, a total of nearly 100,000 people were killed and injured!
However, the king of Linzi is not distressed at all, this time he can be said to have won a complete victory, and no one in the army will dare to provoke him in the future, and no one will dare to threaten him again!
"What are the prince's plans next?" The black-robed man asked.
King Linzi said: "Rest and recuperate first, after all, it took some effort this time, and if you recover your vitality, you will win Jiayuguan in one go!" This matter cannot be delayed any longer, and there is not much time left! β
However, the king of Linzi was not happy for long before he heard another bad news, only to hear a soldier report outside: "The prince is not good, a large number of soldiers have been poisoned and died!" β
The king of Linzi was shocked, got up and said hurriedly: "Why is someone poisoned again?" β
He walked out of the tent and saw a burst of yellow smoke coming in the direction of the barracks, he pointed to the yellow smoke and asked, "What is that?" β
"Poisonous smoke!" The black-robed man didn't know when he came behind the King of Linzi, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that from the beginning of the water poisoning, you have already fallen into the trap of others, and their purpose is to ask you to retreat to this place that happens to be a water source, and this place is surrounded by mountains, and they have calculated the wind, that is, to sneak attack with poisonous smoke!" β
King Linzi's face also showed a trace of anxiety, and he hurriedly asked, "Then Mr. Yi only saw it, what should I do now?" β
The black-robed man said lightly: "You can not drink water for the time being, but you can't do it without breathing, and you are helpless!" He looked sideways at King Linzi and sighed: "Retreat!" β
King Linzi looked at the yellow poisonous smoke that was gradually blown in by the wind, gritted his teeth, and immediately announced the withdrawal of his troops. But the wind suddenly intensified, and those who had not had time to withdraw were attacked by poisonous smoke, which was not highly poisonous, as long as it smelled it, it could make people all weak and faint, only to see that in the blink of an eye, countless soldiers fell to the ground.
And the rest of the soldiers saw that the poisonous smoke was so ferocious, they fled for their lives, and those who fell down were trampled on by others, and in the end, the poisonous smoke did not take people's lives, and there were indeed countless people who were trampled to death!
The king of Linzi escaped in a hurry with his people, and his mighty 300,000 horses are now less than 50,000 left, so how can he not be angry!
The black-robed man turned the king of Linzi pale, and comforted: "Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, as long as the prince returns to Linzi, there will naturally be a comeback!" β
King Linzi's eyes already showed a look of madness, "No, this king can't wait that long, this king still has 50,000 horses left, and Jiayu Pass is only 30,000, this king will definitely be able to capture Jiayu Pass!" β
The black-robed man persuaded: "Lord Wang, please think twice, such low morale, it is really not an excellent time to go to attack the city at this moment!" β
The King of Linzi looked at his remaining troops and sneered: "This king is destined to return, and he must be able to take Jiayuguan in one fell swoop!" He ordered: "Set up camp and attack Jiayuguan early tomorrow morning!" β
The summit of Mt. Aomine.
There were two figures standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at the bursts of yellow poisonous smoke, one of them smiled and said: "This time it is thanks to your merits, whether it is Zhao Ling or Huangfu Shaohua, it is all in vain, this army of the King of Linzi has not been broken by you and me!" β
The other person smiled faintly, "Those who can help the elders have already helped, so what about what the elders promised to do next?" β
The man smiled and said, "Don't worry, the old man will never break his promise, and what he promised you will naturally be done!" β
"Then you can rest assured, now that the matter here has been resolved, then you will leave first!" He paused for a moment and asked again, "So does the elder need an antidote to the water source?" β
The man smiled: "What's the big deal about dying a few fools, and Taohua County is all homeless people, it is or is also a burden for Daxiang, it is better to die clean!" β
Zhaozhi County is very efficient, no one drinks the water in the river anymore, and the number of poisoned people has begun to be curbed, and things are developing in a good direction.
Night falls.
The dirty streets in the daytime also fell into silence for the time being, and the entire Taohua County seemed to fall into sleep, appearing peaceful. On the quiet street, I saw a black figure walking quickly, and then I saw Murong Xun walking out from behind her, looking at the black figure and saying, "It's so late, where is my sister-in-law going?" β
The black shadow paused, quickly turned around, and looked at Murong Xun with a frightened gaze, "How could you be here, shouldn't you ......"
A sneer appeared on Murong Xun's lips, "You put sweat medicine in the porridge, I should be asleep at the moment, but you ignored one thing, Uncle Gu is a person who is proficient in medical skills, how can he not taste the little sweat medicine?" She glanced at Junru and asked, "So, sister-in-law can tell me now that it's so late, where are you going?" β
A trace of panic flashed on Jun Ru's face, and he forced himself to calm down: "Sleepless at night, just take a walk!" β
Murong Xun looked at Jun Ru coldly and said, "Do you still admit it now?" She took out a letter from her sleeve, looked at Jun Ru and said, "This is the letter you wrote to the King of Linzi, and you still said that you didn't want to collaborate with the enemy?" β
Jun Ru put down the hat on his head, revealing a clean face, looked at Murong Xun coldly, and said with a smile: "Since you found out, I have nothing to say!" β
Murong Xun opened the letter paper, only to see that there was only a piece of white paper inside, and Jun Ru's eyes froze.
Murong Xun said lightly: "Your people are very loyal, and they ruined the letter!" β
Jun Ru turned his gaze away and did not speak again.
Murong Xun looked at Jun Ru and said suspiciously: "I'm just here alone, but there is one thing I don't understand, since you have been in Taohua County for a long time, if you want to collaborate with the enemy, you can lead King Zi to enter the customs through the secret passage of your Jun family earlier, why is it at this time?" β
Jun Ru glanced at Murong Xun lightly, bit his lip, and did not speak.
Murong Xun looked at Jun Ru with a torch in his eyes and asked, "Why?" What's in it for you? β
A faint smile appeared on Junru's lips, and she brushed the shredded hair hanging down her cheeks, "What are you going to do now?" She pointed her finger to the quiet street and said, "Now the victims of Taohua County regard me as a lifesaver, now as long as I scream, what do you think they will do?" As long as they are fed, these desperate people are an army! β
"So what exactly is your purpose?" Murong Xun stared at him and asked.
"Zhao Ling! I want Zhao Ling's head! Jun Ru suddenly said coldly, she looked at Murong Xun with cold eyes, and said: "The chaos in the world is not what I want, but I have to take Zhao Ling's life!" She looked at Murong Xun compulsively, and said: "You will give Zhao Ling a letter of resignation now, and ask him to come to Taohua County, otherwise, I will do something, no one can say that it is not necessarily!" β
Murong Xun took a deep breath, looked at Jun Ru inquiringly, and asked, "What is the deep hatred between you and Zhao Ling, and you have to die for him?" β
Jun Ru looked up to the sky and laughed, she looked at Murong Xun with fierce hatred in her eyes, "Does the revenge of killing her husband count!" β
Murong Xun was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "But my brother is not dead, how can I kill my father's revenge?" β
Jun Ru shook his head, his eyes showing pain, "It's not Murong Yao, it's not him!" It's my fiancΓ© before I married your big brother! He is a general under Zhao Ling, we met, fell in love, made a private agreement for life, and agreed to marry me after he achieved meritorious service, but I waited for two years but waited for the news of his death in battle! Later, I inquired and found out that the reason why he died in battle was all framed by Zhao Ling, and when he saw that my fiancΓ© was too sharp, he had a murderous intent, and ordered him to lure the enemy thousands of miles away, enter the tiger's den alone, and finally die on the battlefield! From the moment I knew the truth, I vowed to avenge my fiancΓ©! β
Murong Xun's face froze, and he said, "Although I don't know where your news came from, but with my understanding of Zhao Ling, he will definitely not be a villain who is jealous of the virtuous and powerful!" There may be any misunderstanding in it, I can write to him to come to Taohua County to clear up the misunderstanding between you, but please promise me not to act impulsively! β
