The army had not yet fought, but the Steppe Rangers and the Central Capital Scouts had already begun to fight. After three days, each side won and lost, and it was a draw, and after each side left hundreds of corpses, they died down.

Xu Lin's army was approaching the small hill day by day, and the grassland garrison of the small hill had begun to retreat one after another.

At the same time, Akiba quietly left the royal court with more than three hundred Dao Sect disciples. At the same time, Autumn Leaves also used the seal letter of the first disciple of the Dao Sect, and ordered all the disciples of the Dao Sect in the five northwestern states who had been controlled by the secret guards to enter the grassland from now on.

Over the years, Da Zheng has been intentionally or unintentionally weakening the secret guard, separating the peony from the secret guard is just one of the countless means to suppress the secret guard, since Xiao Lie became the governor of the dark guard, he has always been very clear about this situation, but he has taken an attitude of inaction. Until today, after the Northwest Secret Guard was like a paper tiger being easily torn to pieces by the real tiger of the Dao Sect, the Eastern Capital Zhugong woke up in hindsight.

In the 40th year of Zhengming, Emperor Zheng's 70th birthday is approaching, but it is destined that it is impossible to have a good life this year, and even this year has not been good.

On the third day of the first lunar month, the yamen of the eastern capital have been opened.

Because of two pieces of news, the government and the opposition were shaken.

The first news is that the Northwest Secret Guard and the Daoist Demon Sect have started a full-scale war, and the elite of the Secret Guard has been defeated again and again, and all the Northwest Five States Secret Guards have been dispatched, all of them have been broken and sunk in the sand, and the whole army has almost been wiped out. After this battle, the Xiao family in the eastern capital has become a rat crossing the street, if it weren't for Xiao Lieyu Wei still there, and the face of Princess Ling'an, I'm afraid Xiao Jin's fate would not be as simple as dismissal.

In fact, there are also many clear-eyed people among the princes of the Eastern Capital, how can they not know that weakening the secret guard is to sharpen the long knife in their hands, although they can't hurt themselves, they can't hurt the enemy.

It's just that the world is big, his official position is the largest, and the secret guard has nothing to do with his current official position, since His Majesty wants to weaken it, then follow His Majesty's will.

The so-called rat's eyes are bright, and it is better than that.

The second news is that Xu Lin, the governor of Zhongdu, was promoted, and Zhongdu rode to the grassland.

In this regard, the court is united in their hearts, and they all agree that Xu Lin will definitely be like a bamboo, and hit the royal court city in one fell swoop, and Xiao Yu's best result is just to escape from Atami.

The dream of the western capital of several generations of emperors of Dazheng seems to be in sight.

The eyes of the Dazheng government and the opposition were all focused on the northwest, a bitter cold place that they never disdained to take a look at in the past.

It seems that Xu Lin attracted the attention of Emperor Zheng and the Manchu courtiers, while the princes' party paid great attention to the movements of Qin Quan, the king of Jin, and the Min line on the right became somewhat unnoticed.

No one would have thought that the young ruler on the grassland was most concerned about the right army of Minxing.

......

Xiao Yu took Zhuge Gong all the way down the Duolun River, at this time Minxing was less than 500 miles away from the Duolun River, and Xiao Yu's military camp was stationed on the Wusi Yuan north of the Duolun River.

Xiao Yu's integration of the royal court is not yet complete, and it can probably be divided into three factions, the first faction is the faction of Xiao Yu and the royal court relics headed by Bonu, Zhuge Gong, and Lu Shixing, relying on Taoism and orthodoxy, and now it has the highest momentum. The second faction is Huang Hanji and Shen Dongzan, the two of them, the two of them are each other's Olympic aid, and they are in the same spirit, although there are inevitably some small dirty between the two, but on the whole, it does not hinder the overall situation. The third faction is the Yousan Taiji, led by the three orthodox Taijis of Amurmendu, Jiri Mutu, and Tubuxin.

This time, Xiao Yu's division of troops was probably divided according to factions, but when he put Shen Dongzan in the middle lane, he also had the intention of restraining each other.

The three factions are clearly distinguished, compared to Da Zheng, this is just a small thing, not worth mentioning.

Under Dazheng, under the emperor, there was the struggle for the throne between the prince's party and the prince's party, the dispute between the Jiangnan scholars and the northern scholars, the dispute between the central places between the temples and governors in the eastern capital, the dispute between the herdsmen in the northern capital and the five major governors' offices, the dispute between the prime ministers of the first and second assistants of the cabinet, and the chaos of the eunuchs and eunuchs, relatives, clans, and mothers in the inner court and deep palace, which was chaos.

Fortunately, the Dazheng royal family is sparse, and there is no feudal king on the fief side, so there is one less dispute to cut the domain.

Xiao Yu turned over and dismounted, stood by the Duolun River, looked at the thick ice on the river, and was silent.

Zhuge Gong cautiously accompanied Xiao Yu and looked around.

Xiao Yu suddenly turned his head and saw a young man standing on the glacier, with a broken arm, his expression was gloomy, he walked down slowly along the glacier, and the killing aura on his body seemed to be far inferior to Xiao Yu, who made Emperor Zheng use hundreds of thousands of troops.

Xiao Yu raised his hand and motioned for Zhuge Gong to step back.

The young man of the Yin Owl glanced at his broken arm, and then at Xiao Yu, a trace of hideousness flashed on his face, "Xiao Yuma!"

Xiao Fuma, who had been sitting in a position of power for a long time and had learned to be patient without haste, nodded lightly, "It turned out to be you." ”

The young man sneered, "Do you remember me?"

Xiao Yu seemed to remember something, and laughed at himself, "I have a good memory, whether it is a supernatural power or a human, I will never forget it, your name is Wang Dongle." ”

Xiao Yu can steal ten thousand laws, of course, his memory will not be bad, not to mention that this mad dog-like Wang Dongle left him a deep memory, and this mad dog also has some snake characteristics, such as being bitten by a snake instead of dying when fighting a snake.

Last time, he failed to leave Wang Dongle in Xiheyuan, and Xiao Yu regretted it.

Wang Dongle sneered, "In the past year, I don't want to rip out your heart and lungs, peel your skin and cramp, and then cut off your limbs and make a human stick." ”

Xiao Yu frowned, "Have you achieved the realm of heaven and man?"

Wang Dongle was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "No, but it's enough to want to kill you." ”

Xiao Yu praised insincerely, "Good courage." ”

Even if it is the realm of heaven and man, as long as they have not survived the catastrophe, few people dare to say that they can kill Xiao Yu.

Qin Quan's praise of Xiao Yu as the first person under heaven and man is not entirely a scene.

Wang Dongle stared at Xiao Yu's face, and couldn't tell whether it was anger or jealousy, why did this kid sit on the princess, dominate the grassland, and be favored by Taoism, let him get any good thing, this kind of person should be a human stick to relieve his anger!

Xiao Yu said coldly: "Today I came out to relax, and there is still an hour of kung fu to play with you, if you play well, I can let you die happily." ”

Wang Dongle laughed loudly, as if he had heard a big joke.

Xiao Yu's face remained unchanged, he stood with his hands in his hands, and looked up at the sun.

Wang Dongle suddenly restrained his smile, his face was gloomy, and there was an extra black and red long knife in his one-armed hand.

In the past year, he has killed the secret guards, killed the guards of the Central Capital, killed the monks of the Molun Temple, killed the wizards of the grassland, and walked on the edge of life and death again and again, and almost died again and again.

In his opinion, no matter what Qiuyue or Murong is, they are just some wastes who have an empty realm of cultivation and will not work hard, and in the same realm, he is confident that no one is his opponent.

Although he lost to Xiao Yu last time in Xiheyuan, in his opinion, Xiao Yu is still in the frost realm, and the victory or defeat between the two is only five or five, and now Xiao Yu is already in power, and he dares to fight hard?

If you don't dare to fight hard, then it must be Xiao Yu who dies!

Wang Dongle sneered, the person who took advantage of Lao Tzu has not been born yet!

The next moment, Wang Dongle's figure burst up, and the long knife in his hand swept the black rainbow.

In an instant, the wind and thunder.
