712 - Who are they?

After leaving, Wang Xiaolai looked at Zhao Lei's grave alone, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

Seriously, with Zhao Lei's incident, Wang Xiaolai didn't know whether his existence was a blessing or a curse for Sui Yang.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Wang Xiaolai didn't look back: "Hongxiang..."

No one answered, Wang Xiaolai raised his head slightly to look to the side, but saw an unexpected but expected person.

Zhao Lang knelt down next to Wang Xiaolai, took out incense from his body, and worshiped his father's grave.

Wang Xiaolai looked back, and Hongxiang waved at him thirty or forty steps behind him.

"Master Taifu came early." Zhao Lang's expression did not fluctuate, and he said while worshipping.

Wang Xiaolai nodded and snorted.

Zhao Lang asked rhetorically: "Doesn't Master Taifu hold a grudge against his father?" โ€

Wang Xiaolai smiled bitterly: "What do I have to hate the old prince." โ€

Zhao Lang put down the work in his hand, changed his knees to sitting, tidied up the clothes on his body, and looked at Wang Xiaolai and said: "My father Wang conspired to assassinate Master Taifu, did Lord Taifu really let go?" โ€

Wang Xiaolai sighed: "Why don't you let it go, the old prince is dedicated to Sui Yang, I, an outsider, in the eyes of the old prince, is naturally a thief and a thief, for the old prince, I have to disappear in public and private." โ€

Zhao Lang stared at Wang Xiaolai faintly: "But instead of dying, you begged Your Majesty to make me the deputy commander of the National Protector Legion." โ€

Wang Xiaolai generously admitted: "Yes." โ€

"If you had done this, my father would not have died." Zhao Lang said.

Wang Xiaolai said: "If I had discovered the old prince's intentions, things would not have come to this point." โ€

Zhao Lang shook his head: "It's not too late to find out now." โ€

Wang Xiaolai: "ยทยทยท"

Zhao Lang continued: "I heard that on the day my father was killed, you made an oath. โ€

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Yes, in front of Your Majesty, in front of the Mother of Heaven and Earth, I have made a decision that I will never rebel, and I will rebel, and I will not obey, otherwise the sky will thunder." โ€

"I hope you can do it."

"Yes."

"In the future, you and I will be enemies, treat enemies, I believe that Master Taifu should not be polite and greet each other with a smile, right?" Zhao Lang asked.

Wang Xiaolai asked rhetorically: "The prince should not be able to assist the enemy wholeheartedly, right?" โ€

Zhao Lang smiled, that's how talking to smart people.

"I am monitoring you on behalf of the clan and the ministers, and I hope that you will not have any power in my hands." Zhao Lang said.

Wang Xiaolai said with a smile: "I hope that I can give you some handle, so that you will not be too tired." โ€

"It's easy to grab the handle of Master Taifu, you are content to enjoy it, obsessed with money..." Zhao Lang said quietly.

Wang Xiaolai lowered his head and sighed, then looked up and smiled: "People always have some small problems, right?" โ€

Zhao Lang laughed, laughing wildly, and a little sad: "I am different from my father, I don't take the rumors in the market to heart, I listen to them." โ€

As he spoke, Zhao Lang's body suddenly leaned forward, and he pointed at Wang Xiaolai's heart with his hand: "I only hope that in the future, Lord Taifu, Hugh will abandon his heart." โ€

was pointed at his chest by Zhao Lang, Wang Xiaolai didn't speak, just nodded.

Zhao Lang was satisfied: "Even so, the king has nothing to say." โ€

With that, he got up and left.

Long after Zhao Lang left, Wang Xiaolai also stood up.

Hongxiang ran over to support Wang Xiaolai and asked, "Childe, what did he tell you?" โ€

Wang Xiaolai smiled: "It's okay, it's just a few words of chatting with parents, let's go, let's go back." โ€

Hongxiang snorted.

Zhao Lei's matter has been almost a month now, and when he came out of the imperial tomb, Wang Xiaolai felt the cold chill that was coming in the October sky.

Tightly wrapped in the cotton clothes on his body, Wang Xiaolai lowered his head and sneered: "It's ridiculous, I'm obviously a young man, but I'm dressed like an old man." โ€

Hongxiang glanced at Wang Xiaolai: "Son, you are injured, what should you do if you don't pay attention to keeping warm?" When the time comes, His Majesty may be angry again. โ€

Wang Xiaolai looked at Li Baiyi, who had his hands in his sleeves, his neck shrunch, and he pretended not to hear.

The Eight Sages King led the Thunder Fire Iron Cavalry, crossed the Saibei Corridor, passed through the original Nanting tent of the grassland, and entered the northern part of the grassland.

Here, the flames of war have spread.

Shen Yijing was seriously injured, which led to the loss of the Frozen Canyon Fortress.

At this time, Shen Yijing's department and Min Chao's department joined forces, and within a month, they blocked the footsteps of Yiren going south.

Of course, they don't know yet, the situation of the Inhumans.

From the generals to the soldiers, they all thought that what attacked them was just a bunch of wild beasts with little intelligence.

And the truth of the matter is true, it was indeed a group of wild beasts that attacked them.

But in this way, the army of 100,000 also plummeted by two percent in this month's fighting.

Min Chao, like Shen Xiping, is a reckless man, a general born in a tough battle, and at the same time, they only know how to fight a tough battle, and fight a tough battle with a group of beasts that they have never seen or heard of.

The Eight Sages King rushed to the main battlefield, successively mobilized 60,000 troops, united with Min Chao and Shen Yijing's subordinates, and established a new line of defense based on the royal capital established by Huyan Zhuozhuo in the Northern Court.

Excluding the wounded soldiers who could not continue the battle, 140,000 soldiers were ready to fight against the unknown monsters.

The Eight Sages knew that they could not tell the news of the Inhumans to the soldiers before they had won the victory over the Inhumans, so every time they mobilized, the Eight Sages always belittled the enemy and exalted themselves.

Shen Xiyuan was a rare wise general in the Northern Legion, and he was worried that the Eight Sages King would be a little swollen if he continued like this, so he privately approached the Eight Sages King several times to express his worries.

But after a few words, Shen Xiyuan was persuaded by the Eight Sages King and didn't talk about anything.

On the fourth day after the construction of the royal defense line, the monsters that swept the earth like a storm chased after them.

Led by thousands of Inhumans, tens of thousands of monsters were displayed in front of the royal capital's defense line.

If nothing else, just looking at that ant-like monster can scare people half to death.

The Eight Sages were prepared for this, and he responded calmly and commanded properly.

With the Eight Wise Kings in charge, the soldiers were not as frightened as before, on the contrary, when they fought back, they were all calm and calm.

It seems that the attack of the monsters was really stopped by the Eight Sages King.

This situation lasted only about ten days, and with the arrival of the second group of strangers, the peace between the two sides was completely broken.

The second group of Inhumans brought more monsters to drain the living forces of the Northern Legion.

You know, Inhumans keep monsters in captivity as cannon fodder, and naturally think of the morale of the monsters.

There is a kind of beast soul in their hands, as long as it is ignited, it can stimulate the minds of monsters, and each of them goes berserk.

The two groups of Inhumans add up to no less than 10,000 people, and the monsters add up, the number is immeasurable, at a glance, it seems to be innumerable, and the Inhumans don't need to take the initiative to attack, they only need to be dispatched by monsters to break the defense line of the royal capital.

On the first day, the Eight Sages King sat firmly in the big tent of the Chinese army and commanded all the soldiers and horses to resist the enemy.

The next day, the Eight Sages sent troops to drive away the monsters that climbed the city first, and bought time for the auxiliaries to repair the defensive line.

On the third day, the Eight Sages came out of the tent, appeared at the head of the city, drew his sword and commanded.

On the fourth day, the Eight Sages led the personal guards and personally participated in the battle.

In four days, the two sides fought countless bloody battles.

The Northern Frontier had never suffered such a battle loss, with nearly 50,000 casualties in four days, and even in the largest battle against the steppes, there had never been such a battle loss.

Although, there are nearly 100,000 of those monsters that have been spelled out, but they are all cannon fodder raised by Inhumans in batches, no matter how many people die, Inhumans will not feel distressed.

On the night of the fourth day, the monsters' attack was repulsed, but after a few days of fighting, a feeling called fear spread among the soldiers.

What's the deal with these long, monstrous beasts? Where do they come from? Why attack us?

And why do you have to go to war with these beasts, and what about the giants who can drive monsters crazy?

As the saying goes, what is sent by the top must be done by the bottom, and the soldier is not like this.

However, when the soldiers found those giants, those monsters, eating the corpses of their comrades who had died in battle and had been dragged down the city walls on the third day, they had already lost their hearts.

These men who served as soldiers were not afraid of death or bloodshed, but they were afraid that after their own death, they would become rations for this group of enemies who did not know the situation.

Now there are the Eight Sages King in town, so the soldiers can still hold on, but as the battle gradually escalates, this will undoubtedly become a hidden danger enough to destroy the soldiers' psychological defense...
