Daesang Castle.

This is a small city south of Danshui and one of the granaries of Tianzi Peak.

In a quiet room in the city, two middle-aged men held chess pieces and played against each other.

An extremely handsome young man watched the game between the two, but his brows showed an unconcealed worry, and his lips moved, as if he wanted to speak.

The Ruguan scribe in green clothes waved his hand to stop him, and sighed lightly: "Door master, I lost. ”

Xue Yiren said with a smile: "At the time of life and death, the joy of playing chess is more and more apparent. Why don't we do another game?"

"Uncle, uncle......" The young man finally couldn't help but speak.

Xue Yiren turned his eyes to look at the young man: "Shanyu, do you think this battle will be lost, so it is meaningless for me to play chess here, yes or no?"

Wu Shanyu was stunned and sighed.

Xue Yiren waited for Xue Dingye's follow-up troops in Shangyong County, but when the army arrived, Xue Yiren keenly sniffed out that something was wrong.

Xue Dingye commanded the army to attack like lightning, and the banner of Yingzi flew in the military array.

Up and down Tianzi Peak, there have always been rumors that Xue Dingye is the son of Ying Wuji, and according to the time calculation, his pregnancy time is less than eight months, which is extremely suspicious.

In fact, Xue Yiren had an affair with Mrs. Ying before, of course he knew that Xue Dingye was his son, and the reason why he ridiculed him more was nothing more than hating iron and not steel.

Xue Yiren connived at this rumor, which was out of his strategy to stabilize people's hearts, so that the wealthy families loyal to the Ying family thought that the position of the master of Tianzi Peak would eventually return to the Ying family.

But Schrödinger in turn took advantage of this rumor and achieved his righteous reputation. Now that he claims to be the son of Ying Wuji, the crusade against Xue Yiren is by no means an act of killing his father, but a righteous act of avenging his father.

The high-pressure rule of the Xue Yi people in Hanzhong made most of the leaders of the Hao clan dare to be angry but did not dare to speak, but no one could unite them. In the blink of an eye, Xue Yiren tasted the taste of being an enemy country.

With exquisite command, Xue Yi people got rid of Xue Ding's attack, brought the army into Dasang City, fortified the city and defended itself, Xue Dingye after the siege was unfavorable, the army was stationed in the north of Danshui to confront Xue Yiren, and at the same time blocked the Hanshui artery in the direction of Weixing County, cutting off Xue Yiren's return route.

Xue Yiren smiled and said: "The prime minister of the Middle Ages played chess to stabilize the morale of the army before the war, because there was still a chance of winning two or three percent. But now I don't have the slightest chance of winning. ”

"But when my fate is finally over, and I understand this, is it not far better to die freely than to die in fear and sorrow?"

With a flick of the sleeves between the words, the black and white chess pieces fell back into the chess box, as if they were clearly not mixed.

The Tsing Yi scribe stared at Xue Yiren and muttered, "Door Master, in fact, your mistake this time is not in the world, but in Jing Daoli." ”

Xue Yiren looked at the roof beam and stroked his long beard: "Yes." ”

Jing Daoli is his brother-in-law and the deputy head of Tianzi Peak.

He was not completely defenseless against Schröding, and the matter of organizing the follow-up troops was jointly responsible for Jing Daoli and him.

And Jing Daoli's real identity is his own brother.

He felt that he needed a helping hand to pacify the complicated internal situation in Hanzhong, so he asked his younger brother to come from the Western Regions and work with him as his righteous brother to stabilize the situation and suppress the tribal clans.

When Xue Yiren knew that Xue Dingye was rebelling, he understood that Jing Daoli, who was supposed to monitor Xue Dingye, joined forces with Xue Dingye instead.

He was puzzled for a moment.

If it is said that the leader of the Hao clan followed Xue Dingye, it was because Xue Dingye was willing to compromise with them and return the territory expropriated by the Xue Yi people to them. So he has never treated his younger brother badly, and Jing Daoli is already the deputy head, following Schröding, what can Schrödingye give him?

But now Xue Yiren has figured it out.

Betrayal is not necessarily due to greed, but may also be hatred brought about by extremism.

When his father returned home with a serious injury, he impersonated Xue Yiren after changing his appearance.

However, he also looks very similar to his father.

Jing Daoli thinks that if his father chose himself back then, he should be the lord of Hanzhong now!

The long-term resentment has made Jing Daoli lose his mind, and even if he doesn't get any benefits, he will destroy his brother, who has always been a hundred times more dazzling than himself, with his own hands.

Xue Yiren said to himself: "Little brother, your talent may be enough to make my son-in-law a general, but after you do this, you obviously won't get any benefits, but you are destined to fight him endlessly." If he does rise, how long will you survive in front of his soldiers?"

There was not a trace of resentment in his words, and he seemed to see through it completely.

Wu Shanyu's voice became hurried: "Uncle, uncle, since there is no chance of victory, why do we still have to fight this battle? We only have more than 2,000 soldiers, and the subordinates of Shizi alone have more than 10,000 soldiers! Leave, looking for an opportunity to make a comeback, can't you?"

Xue Yiren smiled: "Ying Wujian once escaped and defected to Su Mengzhen, becoming a puppet in the hands of Su Mengzhen and a righteous crusade against me, and was ruthlessly abandoned by Su Mengzhen, who was eager to flee for his life, in the battle of Hanshui, and was finally killed by me myself." Do you think I'd like to live like this?"

The name is tiring, he is the head of a faction, and he is destined to fall into the hands of others, and he will only become a signboard for attacking Hanzhong, and there will never be a chance to start over.

Wushan was speechless, but his eyes were still flickering.

He lost his father when he was a child, and it was his uncle Wu Qiliang who raised him to adulthood, and his uncle Xue Yiren also took care of and guided him.

Now that Xue Yiren is determined to die in battle, my uncle, as a close confidant of Xue Yiren, is afraid that he is also determined to be martyred.

"I'll stay too. His lips twitched, and he finally said with difficulty.

He was still young, did not enjoy the beauty of life, and had a deep fear of death.

But in front of Jieyi, Wu Shanyu was unwilling to let himself be a coward.

Wu Qiliang shook his head: "Shanyu, it's still too late for you to leave now." ”

Wu Shanyu was stunned: "Why?"

Wu Qiliang said calmly: "There are no eggs under the nest, our Wu family can't escape the disaster of annihilation, if I guess correctly, now my sons have been hunted and killed by the son." If you escape now, you can still leave a bloodline for the Wu family. ”

Xue Yiren centralized power within Tianzi Peak, and if he wanted to cut off the territory and power of the old family, he must also reuse certain families as sharp blades in his hands.

The Wu family is one of them, and over the years, they have received a lot of favors from the Xue Yi people, and their power has increased greatly, but they have also become the target of public criticism.

Just returning the seized territory, Xue Dingye is not enough to satisfy the appetite of those wealthy clan leaders, and of course, he must eliminate some families that are too close to Xue Yiren, and use their flesh and blood as a reward!

Wushan Yu was completely frozen.

He remembered the smiling faces of several cousins, the youngest of whom was not yet five years old.

Hanzhong has been peaceful for too long, so he can't feel the atmosphere of troubled times.

However, the law of troubled times is so cruel, the loser, the annihilation!

He knew why his uncle, who had always been better at chess than Xue Yiren, was defeated.

Wu Qiliang pressed his palm on Wu Shanyu's shoulder, and although his voice was calm, his arm was trembling faintly.

"Remember, revitalize the Wu family. ”

Wushan Yu choked up in an instant.

He saw Xue Yiren's gaze towards him.

He suddenly showed a somewhat stubborn look.

"I don't take refuge in Wu Feng. ”

"It's fine. Xue Yiren nodded and said, "Go where you want to go." ”

He knew that Wu Shanyu was not very convinced by Wu Feng, since this was the case, it was not a bad thing to defect to others, with Wu Shanyu's talent, he would not be able to get ahead.

However, the power of fate is unstoppable, and the two people who are destined to converge can not be stopped by a momentary mind!

When Wu Shanyu's figure disappeared from the field of vision of the two, Xue Yiren easily dusted off his sleeves: "Next, you can fight this last battle without distraction." ”

At this moment, a white dove hurried in through the window and turned into a beautiful woman in a white dress and white dress.

"General Ross. Xue Yiren glanced at her lightly: "Is there a new military situation?"

"The new aunt has already sent troops, and he probably didn't consider my advice......" Luo Shuang's voice was hurried: "The number of troops - less than four thousand!"

Xue Yiren and Wu Qiliang looked at each other.

Then he slammed the table.

"This idiot!" Xue Yiren yelled with wide eyes.
