Chapter 48: The Shogunate
The capital of the Jin Dynasty, the shogunate.
A large cart covered in black cloth slowly drove in, and there was a faint roar of wild beasts inside, and when one of the first people showed his token, the patrolling armored warriors checked and entered to report, and after a while, a man who looked like a scribe walked out quickly.
"Han Yu?"
The scribe took the token with a gleam in his eyes.
He glanced vaguely at the cart covered by the black cloth, only to hear a violent wheezing sound coming from inside, and then his expression became serious, and he said to Han Yu, who looked embarrassed: "The general has received the news and is already waiting in the main hall, come with me." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Han Yu responded, and then saw a warrior step forward and take over the cart.
The people who drove the car before were removed and driven away by the people here, and then the scribe led all the way into the depths of the shogunate, Han Yu followed behind with his head down, his heart was blocked, and there was silence along the way, only the creaking sound of the wheels falling on the stone slab ground sounded.
Along the way, the courtyard is deep, the pavilions are lined up, and the road is winding.
"It's here!"
Han Yu raised his head when he heard this, and his eyes suddenly brightened.
A temple appeared in front of him, and at this time, a middle-aged man surrounded by many armored warriors, wearing regular clothes, and with a majestic figure, greeted him, he first glanced at Han Yu, and then looked at the cart covered by the black cloth, his eyes calmed.
"General!"
The scribe hurried forward to salute.
This is Qi Rong, the general of the Jin Kingdom, and then saw the other party waving his hand to excuse him, and said concisely: "Enter the palace with this seat." ”
Everyone whispered, and then a large number of warriors stepped forward, lifted the cart together, and walked slowly towards the main hall, the scribe and Han Yu hurriedly followed, and entered the main hall with Qi Rong.
"Herald, martial law here!"
When the cart covered with black cloth was placed in the center of the main hall, Qi Rong ordered in a cold voice.
In a bang, the sound of armor colliding sounded, and a large number of warriors rushed out according to the swordfish, guarding outside the main hall, and only a dozen people were left at the scene, including Han Yu.
"Uncovered."
Qi Rong sat on the main seat of the main hall, his expression was still calm.
An elite warrior who was waiting with him pulled out his sword at his waist, walked over, picked up the black cloth with his blade, and then stirred it up, and ripped off the black cloth with a bang, revealing a wooden cage inside.
Whining!
The cage shook, and several of the unkempt figures in it were chained to the ground on all fours, shaped like wild beasts, when they suddenly saw the light of day, and their expressions were panicked and vicious, and they immediately bared their teeth and roared.
"Qi Xiao followed this seat when he was six years old."
Qi Rong, who was sitting on the main seat of the main hall, got up at this time and paced towards the cage.
His eyes were deep, looking at the cage, a man wearing scale armor and a hideous scar on his pale face, his tone was light, he couldn't hear joy and anger, and then said: "Qi Biao has gone through more than 70 battles with this seat, braved the rain of arrows, fought to the death, and did not retreat, and blocked dozens of swords and soldiers for this seat, and was wounded, although he is the leader of the warriors under this seat, he is really the younger brother of this seat!" ”
"How can you now suffer the humiliation of this prison cage!"
When Qi Rong said this, he was immediately furious, and suddenly drew his sword and cut open the cage.
Immediately, the iron chain collided suddenly, and the man with scars on his face inside pounced, and several armored warriors flew forward together, suppressed them on the spot, and said in their mouths: "The leader of Qi Yu is now delirious, general, please don't put yourself in danger!" ”
"Herald!"
Qi Rong looked sad: "Gather the great doctors of the Jin Kingdom, Qi Biao has never married in his life, and now he has suffered this catastrophe, this seat must not be saved, if it is irretrievable, he will be raised by his younger brother!" ”
"Yes, General!"
Everyone listened to the order, and then a large number of armored samurai entered the temple.
After seeing the scene, although his eyes were frightened, but his expression was still calm, Qi Rong moved the cart out with the warrior guards, his mood stabilized, and he turned his head to Han Yu and said, "Let's talk about this battle situation in detail with this seat." ”
"Yes!"
Hearing this, Han Yu knelt down and kowtowed.
He described the witheredness, with a trace of blood in his eyes, and at this time, he forcibly collected his mind, and recounted the scenes from the discovery of Xie Yun's traces, to the night battle in the forest, the siege of the wasteland, and the advent of heaven and man.
"Shhh
The scribe next to him gasped.
When he heard that the army knelt down without even seeing the other party's face clearly, and the samurai leader and others were reduced to brutes and could not recover, his expression was extremely frightened, and then he said to Qi Rong: "General! ”
"If you spread the power of heaven and man today, you are known as the first person in the world."
He shook his head as he spoke, and sighed in his tone: "My subordinates thought that the world was ignorant and spread falsehoods, although they got the war report, but they were vague and could not know the truth. ”
"In that case."
Qi Rong sat back on the main seat of the main hall, his eyes were contemplative, and then he pressed his sword and asked, "Sir, what is the plan?" ”
Hearing this, the scribe's eyes flashed, and he thought and said: "General, since the lord of the Taishang Palace has retreated, this matter has been stopped, there is no need to worry for the time being, the top priority is still that the Jin Kingdom has lost its king, the heirs are weak, and under the competition for the throne, there is a sign of chaos and domestic trouble!" ”
"The Great Jin has been fighting for many years, and strong enemies are waiting, this is an external trap!"
The scribe said at this time, knelt down and kowtowed, and said coldly: "At this time when the internal and external troubles are in trouble, my subordinates implore the general to quickly cut through the chaos, sweep away the country's evils, and display the border of the soldiers, so as to predict the unforeseen danger!" ”
"Sir."
Qi Rong's mind was unstable at this time, and he put aside this matter and asked: "Is the power of heaven and man controllable?" ”
The scribe knew that Qi Rong was extremely insecure after experiencing this battle, so he said categorically: "General, the power of heaven and man is the one who can control it, and the princes of the world gather together to attack the whole world, this is a delusion, and it is not a wise man!" ”
"This is one of them!"
He first dispelled Qi Rong's intention to continue to try to resist the other party, and then pointed out the way to retreat: "Second, Jin and his disciples had a grudge and died with the King of Jin. ”
"Now those who fear the might of heaven and man are not the generals, but the princes of the world!"
The scribe kowtowed and raised his head, his eyes were blazing, and he said awe-inspiringly: "The people of the world are ignorant, and they should be deceived by the princes, and attack my Jin on the grounds that Jin has lost the way and the heavens and people are coming to the world. ”
"What the gentleman says is like Huang Zhong Da Lu!"
Qi Rong was moved when he heard this: "With the help of Mr., why worry about the great cause?" ”
He is also an extremely decisive person, at this time he knew that he could not do anything, and if he wanted to kill Xie Yun to avenge the king, the plan to obtain the righteousness of the country was immediately overturned, and a trace of the newly raised desire to resist the heavens also sank into the bottom of his heart.
"Herald!"
Qi Rong pressed his heart at this time, and ordered in a deep voice: "Invite the vassals of the lords of the country and the above Wanyi to gather in the suburbs of the royal capital to drink and discuss matters in ten days, and say that the Great Jin is afraid of being overthrown, and this seat respects the marquis!" ”
"Yes, General!"
A samurai in armor answered, and then the armor collided and strode out.
The scribe looked at Qi Rong again and found that the other party had recovered that graceful bearing, and at this time he gave orders, life and death, clear organization, and proper planning, and immediately had a bit of the atmosphere of a human master.
……
At the same time, the state of Chu, the royal capital of Daying.
"Meet the King!"
A general in hideous armor pressed his sword to the hilt and knelt on one knee.
Behind him was a black and oppressive warrior in armor and sword, kneeling in the huge camp school yard at this time, and his voice was like a mountain and a tsunami: "Meet the king!" ”
"Excuse me!"
The King of Chu, who had a thick beard and a majestic momentum, was dressed in a robe and a crown on his head, and at this time he waved his hand, and the school field responded violently, and suddenly the sound of armor colliding was undulating.
At a glance, they are all samurai with a strong temperament and a high posture standing in armor and swords.
