In a bleak plain, the army marched in a hurry, compared with the elation of ordinary fearless soldiers, Wu Gan's heart was like the increasingly cold wind, becoming more and more cold.

After defeating Ji Jing and the men and horses of various families, the forces that could pose a threat to the dreadnoughts along the way were almost non-existent.

Ji Jing's southern army has all been assigned to the command of Wu Gan, and as for the soldiers and horses of each family, they will be under the command of Nie Bi, and they will be used according to the situation after taking Hanlu City for screening.

When Nie Bi saw Ji Xin, he quickly expressed his determination to change his past and be loyal to his lord, and for the sake of balance, Ji Xin handed over these troops to him.

Along the way, they met two groups of family members who came to support Ji Jing, they had not yet received the news of the defeat of the southern army, and when they saw Ji Xin leading so many people forward, they all looked panicked and didn't know where to go.

Wu Gen was already in a bad mood, and when he saw these reinforcements, he immediately asked Nie Bi to take people to fight. Nie Bi and his subordinates were also eager to atone for their sins, and they did their best to fight and quickly defeated these reinforcements.

In the carriage, Wu Gen was bored and talked about playing with Ji Xin's forehand, but both of them were stinky chess baskets, and they scolded each other after a short time and overturned the chessboard.

"Why are you fighting these new families, they are obviously grass on the wall, just drive them away, why bother so much and delay the return time." Ji Xin pointed to a few rows of captives in the distance, all from the newly supported family.

"I'm going to wait for the situation in the province to stabilize and destroy all these guys. If they don't fight a dozen, they will not be accused of rebellion." Wu Yan made a gesture of cutting off his head with his hands, "After Ji Ye ascends the throne, there will definitely be many people in the province who are not convinced. If I can cut off some more heads, and my notoriety is mine, he will be safe to be his emperor."

Ji Xin was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this guy who seemed to be a little crazy and had no manners to speak of, would be able to think of so much.

"According to the rules of your human race, holding great power in your hands, and blackmailing the lord to order the families, you have no further thoughts." Ji Xin stared at Wu Gen with a smile, and there was a hint of murder in his sunken eyes.

Wu Yan turned his head and looked around, and suddenly realized: "Yes, yo, at this time, there is no one in front of Hanlu City to stop me, it seems that I have to slaughter you, and then blame Ji Chen and kill him."

Then take Ji Ye back, stuff his cronies into the court, and let him just be a puppet on the table. When the situation is stable, he will make himself a general or something, and lead the army to exterminate all the families one by one.

By that time, no one in the entire province would dare to resist me. Hehe, pry the courtiers to come up with a Zen trick. Of course, the rule of three invitations and three resignations is indispensable, and when Ji Ye cries and shouts and kneels to make me the emperor, he will reluctantly accept it. Once in power, he killed the people of the Ji family, degraded them, rewrote the history books, and no longer had the name of Ji. Lord, look at my plans."

Ji Xin pointed at Wu Yan and looked up and laughed, so that tears burst into laughter, "Sure enough, it's a good means, Ji Ye can have a brother like you, and I can rest assured that I will die." As he spoke, he took out the wine he hadn't drunk for many days and handed Wu Yan a pot, "People are easy to suspect when they get old, don't mind, drink it."

Wu Yan took it angrily, took a sip of it, leaned on the body, and looked at the field in the distance, "Ji Chen, what are you going to do."

"You can do so much to prepare for Himeya's accession to the throne, I have to clear the way for him." Ji Xin put down the wine in his hand, and his eyes gradually narrowed.

Wu Yan didn't talk, but sighed slightly.

When there were still more than 100 miles away from Hanlu City, a large army came from the north, Wu Yan hurriedly set up his soldiers and horses to prepare to deal with it, this army was the southern army, and he couldn't say that he would fight to the death for Ji Chen.

After setting up the position, the other party stopped and did not take advantage of the situation to charge. The two families faced each other in such a strange way, and no one attacked and charged.

Ji Xin let the carriage drive to the front of the formation, looked at the 30,000 horses on the opposite side, got up and shouted, "I didn't fight with Xian Yu's family in the north, but I ran here, roll over."

After a while, Yuan Xin rode towards this side. When he arrived in front of the carriage, he turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty, "Lord, your subordinates are guilty."

"Yuan Xin,

Who made you abandon the front line, and the war is here?" Ji Xin looked indifferently into the distance.

"Yes...... It's the Young Master." Yuan Xin didn't even dare to raise his head, and whispered.

"I can change it, I can change it." Ji Xin didn't even look at each other.

"My subordinates are loyal to my lord." Yuan Xin bowed his head and said loudly.

"Ji Zhen." Ji Xin called softly.

Ji Zhen, who was not far away, hurriedly urged the horse over, turned over and dismounted and knelt down, "Subordinates listen to orders."

"You go and take over Yuan Xin's position, lead the southern army back to the north, block Xian Yu's family and horses, and if you lose the city, you don't want to come back. Go ahead, go now." Ji Xin commanded coldly.

"Subordinates receive orders." A trace of cold sweat broke out on Ji Zhen's forehead, and without saying a word, he got on his horse and ran to the southern army, and after a simple handover, he took people away.

This southern army came and went quickly, as if it had come to meet Ji Xin.

"Yuan Xin, the guards will be handed over to you to command." Ji Xin gave an order, then he ignored the other party, lowered the curtain, and the carriage continued westward.

In just a few words, the two military leaders easily exchanged military powers. At this time, Ji Xin no longer had the kind eyebrows and kind eyes when he got along with Wu Yan in the car, and he regained the momentum that a violent tiger should have.

Wu Yan smiled and rode in front of Yuan Xin, "Yuan Zhenfu, is your head knocking fast, didn't you come to fight my dreadnought."

Yuan Xin's neck stiffened, and he glared at Wu Yan angrily, "What can I do, a foreign surname Zhenfu is a dog raised by the master's family, the big master is not there, and the second master has to do whatever he wants, otherwise he can still live." Ji Jing."

Wu Wang's smile froze and he sighed, "He didn't live as well as you, so he committed suicide."

"Alas, he is too straight and too hard, in fact, as the current situation, it is impossible for the lord to kill everyone, and if he kills again, how many people in the Ji family can fight, he is a little bit of a bull." Yuan Xin also sighed, he was originally ordered by Ji Chen to return to support Ji Jing, but he didn't want to be gone.

"Everyone has their own way of life, if we say it well, it means that it is through power and change, and if it is ugly, it means that we see the wind and steer the rudder, and we are shameless, and there are still some upright people in the world." Wu Qian looked at the winding and undulating horizon in the distance and sighed faintly.

"You have made great achievements now, and you can't say that you are also a person who ranks among the three princes in the new dynasty. Congratulations, it's time to promote your brother more." Yuan Xin arched his hand, bypassing Ji Jing's topic.

Wu Yan didn't show any joy, he turned his head and glanced at the other party, "When this is over, I'm leaving."

"Gone? Not in the new dynasty?" Yuan Xin's eyes widened, and suddenly he suddenly realized, "You are a human race, you will not stay in the Iron Hand Province, speaking of which, your kid is quite ambitious. Why don't you take me away, and it will be more comfortable to fight with you."

Wu Yan sneered when he heard this, "You are willing to leave this *** Houlu, forget it."

"I'm serious." Yuan Xin's face became serious, he turned his head to look behind him, and said in a low voice, "I don't believe that you haven't recruited Ji Jing, we are a few people, there is nothing to do at the moment, as long as the lord is alive, he may be liquidated in the future, it is better to find a way out earlier."

Wu Yan also restrained his smile, and said, "Don't worry, you can keep it, after this experience, Ji Xin is already a little disheartened, he has decided not to take the position, but is ready to directly support Ji Ye." As long as you don't have different intentions, I believe that Ji Ye will not pursue you and wait. Help him with a horse, and when the situation is calm, if you want to come, you can go to Liangsha Mountain to find me."

"Okay, that's it." Yuan Xin stretched out his left hand and slammed it with Wu Gan's palm.

Towards evening, the vanguard of the army had arrived at the city of Hanlu, the gates of the city were closed tightly, and the soldiers of the city watched nervously at the men and horses rolling under the city.

This important city, which represents the power of the Ji family, has been unshaken by no one for hundreds of years, but it has been besieged twice a year, which can't help but make people sigh.

There are traces of repair in many parts of the city wall, especially near the south of the city, which has almost been torn down and rebuilt. Let the city have less vicissitudes and more restlessness. Only on the corner platform at the four corners of the city wall, the tall stone statue is still there, silently protecting this century-old fortified city.

The carriage carrying Ji Xin slowly drove towards the city gate, Wu Yan thought

sent someone to protect it in case of a sneak attack by arrows in the city, but Ji Xin refused.

The car stopped dozens of steps in front of the city gate, and Ji Xin slowly stood up, wearing the Hei Qi Sword beside him. Glancing around, Ji Xin looked at the soldiers on the city tower without saying a word.

Wu Qian waved his hand, and the soldiers and horses quickly pressed forward, surrounding Ji Xin's carriage.

There are hidden people in the city probing their brains, and the sound of hurried footsteps sounds, and some people are scolding their subordinates. But soon, the sound of swords clashing at the head of the city sounded, and in a short time, several heads were thrown off the city.

The sound of the doorshaft turning came from the hole, as if someone had let out a long sigh. As the gate opened, a column of horses galloped out, standing in two columns on either side of the gate.

"Welcome to the city." With a shout, two rows of soldiers fell to one knee and waited for the master of the city to enter the city.

Ji Xin sat back on the carriage, and dozens of dreadnoughts rode out of the way, slowly walking into the doorway. At the same time, the same slaughter was carried out in various castleheads, and soon the dreadnoughts took over the city defenses.

Entering the city, Wu Gen did not follow Ji Xin into the palace converted into the lord's mansion, but lived in Ji Ye's mansion.

Looking at the bleak and empty mansion, Wu Qian walked all the way through the hall and came to the waterfront pavilion, which was already full of dead leaves and dust.

Soon a personal soldier cleaned the place, and Wu Gan drove everyone away, put a pot of wine and poured himself a drink.

He doesn't have to worry about all the matters after entering the city, with Yang Zheng and others watching, everything will be handled properly.

The wind blows, and the drapery dances with the wind. Wu Qian closed his eyes, as if he had returned to yesterday, Gu Yangsi, Cang Yi and others were all gathering here, laughing and laughing with each other, how high-spirited.

When I opened my eyes, it was empty, these people were dead, prisoners were imprisoned, and the past was gone with the wind. Get up and caress the railing and look into the distance, gazing at the dead trees and ruined lake, there are ancient songs in the distance, like a twilight rain, turning into fallen leaves and floating red, embedded in the lake rock moss.

Life is like a reverse journey, the further back you go, the attachment and fetters of these years will eventually disappear in the rolling red dust. Born in the hustle and bustle, died in loneliness, maybe this is everyone's fate, loneliness is the constant tragedy of life.

"The owner of the village." Zhang Wuyang's voice interrupted Wu Gan's sadness.

"What?" Wu Gen didn't look back, still looking into the distance by the railing,

"The whereabouts of Ji Chen and Murong Yanyu have not been found in the city." Zhang Wuyang responded cautiously, since entering the city, the mood of his own village owner has obviously been a little bad.

"Got it, go ahead." Wu Yan waved his hand slightly.

Zhang Wuyang tiptoed back, not daring to disturb Wu Qianqingsi anymore.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a breeze in the pavilion, and a dark shadow appeared.

"Ji Chen and Lord Murong Yan have fled north, preparing to enter Shule Province." Li Qi said in a low voice.

"Where's the green bead?" Wu Jian lightly slapped the white jade railing.

"They have gone in a hurry, leaving her sister behind, and I have taken her elsewhere." Li Qi hesitated, but still told the truth.

"Okay, I know, you lead the way." Wu Yan suddenly felt a little excited, and slowly turned around, preparing to walk towards the outside of the water pavilion.

"Will they live?" Li Qi asked behind him.

"Will Ji Xin let them live?" Wu Yan flicked his long sleeves and strode out.
