Chapter Forty-Four—The Wind Gallops Civil Strife

The breath of spring on the Demon Spirit Continent has spread, and it has gradually completely replaced the original cold and icy winter feeling. It's just that this spring is destined to be a poetic spring for Qi State, this spring, whether Qi can still enjoy that kind of warmth is a bad thing, right now, internal and external troubles wrap around this country that is fragile on the outside and fragile on the inside, making Qi a piece of fish meat that can be slaughtered. The State of Qi has fallen into the biggest crisis since the sinking of the Nine Domains of the Demon Spirit Kingdom and the establishment of the capital Xuancheng.

In the past two days, the two armies of Fengchi Yunpin, which originally seemed to be alone, have already gained a firm foothold in the territory of Qi State, and the reserve grain transportation team has also begun to transport grain and grass to the front line in a step-by-step manner, supplying the two armies of Fengchi Yunpin. And the Wind Gallop Army is even worse, and now they have all assembled to prepare for the final blow against Xuancheng, the capital of the Qi Kingdom. At this time, the news quietly came that Yuan Tao, the leader of the Fengchi Army, occasionally felt the wind and cold and could not go to the battlefield to command and supervise the battle. Yuan Yu's personal soldiers also temporarily sent out the general's occasional cold, and the attack on Xuancheng, the capital of Qi, was suspended for two days.

This news was originally top secret, except for Yuan Tao's own personal soldiers of 300 people, no one else knew the intention of Yuan Tao to issue this order now. And during this period of time, some of the fierce-tempered soldiers who would be planted in the Fengchi Army by the Feng Zhan Society did not know Yuan Yu's intentions. They believe that now even Yuan Yu is not able to command the army. As long as the Fengchi army continues its current majesty and siege posture, as long as it takes less than three days, Xuancheng will definitely be broken. And if the news of the loss of the Qi country spreads throughout the Qi country, then the resistance of the rest of the Qi country will already become meaningless.

These members of the Feng Zhan Guild really couldn't hold back the situation they couldn't figure out in their hearts, they almost responded to the call, and entangled more than 700 people to go to the big tent where Yuan Yu was located. And these more than 700 people, almost all of them are soldiers who will be planted in the Wind Gallop Army in the Sealed War. And some of the soldiers did not hear about the movement of the Chinese army because of the distance they were stationed.

More than 700 people gathered in the big tent where Yuan Yu was, and some unreasonable soldiers followed them to Yuan Tao's camp. Looking at the guards guarding there around him, the golden armor galloped through the elite soldiers. These members of the Feng Zhan Guild didn't realize what was happening, so they still asked very indifferently to the four galloping soldiers guarding the edge of Yuan's big tent in front of them, "Why is it convenient for General Yuan to let us in and say a few words?" Among the more than 700 people, the two leaders are two middle-aged men with higher official ranks in the Feng Zhan Society, but even if their official ranks are higher, the domineering appearance of the Feng Zhan Hui over the years is indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and these members who are proud of the Feng Zhan Gui are not willing to beg Yuan Yu in such a low voice to beg Yuan Yu, a general they didn't care much about in the first place.

On the edge of the camp where General Yuan Yu was located, there were all soldiers who were loyal to Yuan Yu, and these soldiers had now been mobilized to attack Xuancheng, and these camps were extremely quiet, and it seemed that no sound could be heard at all. It is precisely for this reason that these soldiers of the Sealing War Society dared to attack at this time, and stood out to prepare to use force to seize power and expel Yuan Yu, who they had already looked down on, from the leading figure of the Wind Gallop Army.

The four guards guarding the door of the tent, their faces still did not change, and the four of them said slowly: "The general is feeling the wind and cold now, doesn't anyone give orders, why do you still come to disturb" The faces of the four wind gallop guards showed a trace of coldness, and their voices were filled with a trace of coolness, filled with a chilling feeling.

The two leading members of the Sealing War Society naturally couldn't stand these Wind Gallop soldiers talking to them like this, and the more than seven hundred soldiers behind them naturally unconsciously held the lacquer muskets in their hands, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why, now is the best time to attack Xuancheng, why did General Yuan Yu suddenly fall ill, and even if he was sick, he shouldn't be at this time?"

The words of the two leaders were only halfway through, and suddenly, a sharp golden light flashed in front of the eyes of the two of them, accompanied by an indifferent command, "Do it!", as soon as the words fell, before they could see the situation in front of them clearly, they had already fallen to the ground in an instant. And the more than 700 people who followed behind them saw the current situation clearly, it was the four Fengchi soldiers who were guarding the camp where Yuan Yu was in front of them pulled out the short blades they were wearing on their waists, and killed the two members of the Fengzhan Society in front of them with the fastest speed.

Seeing that the two leaders who led the way had been killed, the more than 700 people did not make any action for a while. Then he saw the tents on both sides of the tent in front of him opened, and out of it came a man with a white robe on his shoulder, wearing white soft-soled armor, and holding a golden sword in his hand, which was wrapped in a brilliant golden gem. On his head, he wears a white round-bottomed helmet. With a heroic face and deep eyes, although from the outside, the figure of the man dressed as a general is not very burly, but the momentum on his face is comparable to ordinary people.

When the "general" saw this group of men in white clothes walking out of the camp tent, the four galloping soldiers who had just killed the two generals who took the lead in the battle in front of them with lightning speed saw the general who came out in front of them, they bowed down on one knee and said in a deep voice, "How to deal with the general" When they said this, they didn't see the fierce killing intent in their eyes.

The general who came out was dressed in white, about forty years old, and the long sword in his hand was like a symbol of power, and the more than 700 soldiers around him did not dare to look at him at all. It seemed that unconsciously, the hearts of these more than 700 soldiers suddenly surged with a fierce killing intent to the bone.

"Leave no one" The white-clothed general's face was as indifferent as usual, and he just said a word so lightly and turned around and walked into the big tent behind him. At this time, the four guards of the Wind Gallop Army had already raised the short blades in their hands and shouted sharply: "General Yuan ordered that some of our Wind Gallop Army people intend to rebel, and the crime cannot be punished!"

Before the more than 700 soldiers could react, the surrounding camp tent was silent and suddenly shouted to kill, and one team after another of pikemen came out of the camp, and then behind them was a team holding longbows, bending bows and arrows aimed at more than 700 people in front of them. And the galloping army standing in front has begun to besiege these more than 700 people, their faces are as cold as frost, and they do not have the slightest sense of comradeship that once fought side by side. On their faces, there is only hatred and disdain for traitors.

The more than 700 soldiers were stunned, but they were well-trained troops after all. Knowing that this time had come for them to have no chance of survival. They simply made a desperate bet and chose to directly wave the weapons in their hands to kill the galloping army that appeared in front of them. Although there is a slight difference in numbers, the difference will not be apparent anytime soon. At least now, these more than 700 people have not been completely surrounded and annihilated. It's just that the Wind Gallop Army, relying on the cover of the strong bow, has narrowed the encirclement step by step, and some of the more than 700 soldiers continue to fall.

Far away from this battlefield that is now full of gunsmoke, Yuan Tao, the commander of the Wind Gallop Army, has already returned to his big tent, only to see him kneeling down on one knee and saying respectfully: "The prince's plan has been successful, but I don't know what we should do next, and I hope the prince will give you some advice."

In the room of Yuan Couch, the commander of the Wind Gallop Army, a man wearing a black python robe and playing with a silver air bottle with an octagonal open hand was sitting on the place where Yuan Couch was, only to see a trace of pride on his handsome face, and then said as if talking to himself: "No matter what the two Feng brothers say, they can be regarded as my senior brothers, and I should help them, this is their foundation after all, and as for what to do next, General Yuan must also be confident."

Yuan Yu nodded lightly, and then whispered a few words in the ear of the prince in the black python robe. At the same time, he deliberately raised his voice and said outside: "Lingfeng Wang Buqi is here, let us shine, but it's a pity that now, your time is running out, our Fengchi Army is no longer something you can stop, Xuancheng, the capital of the Qi Kingdom, we must take it!"

The middle-aged man in front of him in a black python robe was Ling Feng Wang Buqi, the younger brother of Guangwujun, the previous monarch of the Feng Kingdom. That is, the prince who met Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue before, and now he has infiltrated the Fengchi Army, and successfully contacted Yuan Yu with the jade pendant and identity in his hand. It's just that he didn't expect that Yuan Yu, a general who seemed to be attacking fiercely, was actually a general who was unwilling to submit to the iron-fisted rule of the Holy Emperor. In this way, if he wants to unite the two armies to fight back, the success rate of the sealing battle will be much, much greater.
