Chapter 572: The Battle for the Throne After a Year's Lapse
Chapter 572: The battle for the throne after a year
Ju Yuan Dan, Leng Zhuo refined a total of six before and after, it can be said that the low success rate is a little scary, the seventh-order spirit core can refine seven to ten Dan embryos for the Yuan Core, while the eighth-order can refine twenty to thirty Dan embryos, but the next two refining, one out of three, once only two out, the rest of all turned into Dan crushing powder.
Of course, although the Cheng Dan rate is low, it is scary, but there is no mistake in the refining process, otherwise Leng Zhuo will have the heart to die, Leng Zhuo still has two eighth-order king-level spirit cores in his hands, but he does not plan to refine them in the near future, firstly, the refining time is too long, and secondly, the consumption of this Juyuan Dan is too large, and the medicinal materials in Leng Zhuo's hands are not enough, and there are six pills that are enough for the time being.
One was given to Qin Liangyu, and the remaining five, Leng Zhuo also thought of a candidate, Dian Wei, Tan Daoji, Zhang Han, Chen Qingzhi, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, promoted to Heavenly Spirit, in addition to the strength of reaching the top of the earth spirit, it is also necessary to consider the length of the generals' psychic, the time is long, the accumulation time is relatively long, and the mastery of spiritual skills and the use of spiritual power are also more profound, so that after the promotion, it can exert a strong combat power.
And the newly summoned batch of generals, although they have improved quickly, they have been promoted to the earth spirit level in two or three months, and they have already used pills to pull out seedlings, if they are making Juyuan Dan, of course, they may also cross that threshold and advance to the heavenly spirit, but this heavenly spirit is inevitably congenitally insufficient, and there is not much potential to explore.
If it weren't for Leng Zhuo's urgent need to improve his strength, this Juyuan Pill would even plan to put it for a year or two, and then use it, the effect would be better, but right now, it was very necessary to improve some heavenly spirits.
In addition to the elixir, Leng Zhuo also plans to open the third layer of the Baijiang Library again after a day or two of rest, and obtain new spiritual skills for Leng Zhuo's generals and masters to learn.
The ghost golden sheep that escaped before also has to be caught, this doesn't need Leng Zhuo to make a move, just hand it over to the generals under his command to do, as for who this ghost golden sheep is for, Leng Zhuo is still hesitating, forget it, why do you want to do so much now, the long night is long, and there are three beautiful women around you who are like flowers and jade, and they should fight for another three hundred rounds.
Yunzhou, the west wharf of Wanlong City, the imperial capital, although since the collapse of Emperor Huiwu, the rivers and mountains of the Tianlong Empire seem to have begun to crack and shake all of a sudden, and they are not so stable, but the centuries-old imperial heritage is still there, and the elite army of more than 30 elite legions is still there.
And this Wanlong City, instead of withering due to internal strife and external disasters, has appeared far more prosperous than in the past, a large number of wealthy families poured into Wanlong City, as well as the issuance of large orders for ordnance and materials issued by the empire, which has created an alternative prosperity on the Yunzhou Great Plain.
If the empire of the past was like a pool of stagnant water, then this time the external and internal troubles are like a stick, completely stirring up this pool of stagnant water, and the whole country seems to be on the strings and began to run at a high speed.
Wanlong City west of the city is adjacent to the Yunzhou River Tianlong River, the distance is not more than five or six miles, this river originates from the north of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, the water is abundant, the river is wide, all the way to the south, and finally into the Tianhe River, and the area where the two rivers meet also forms the largest plain in the north, the Yunzhou Plain.
Along the course of the Tianlong River, riding the southeast wind all the way up the river, you can see the spectacular scene of thousands of sails competing on the river surface along the way, and in the river, more than a dozen large transport ships are tightly covered, and the sailors are on the deck with sails, skillfully shuttling on the river surface.
And in the cabin of these dozen or so big ships, there is a person sitting densely, these people are not how to be sold slaves, each of them is wearing bright armor, in the dark, you can't see the face under the helmet, but in the cabin at the moment, the atmosphere is very depressing.
At the very front of the ship, on the deck, there were several men, and the sailors tried to avoid them, like mice touching cats, for fear that they would get close and swallow not even the bones and slag left.
The Nine Emperor Princes, Prince Yun Situ Ming stood in the middle of the bow of the boat, Situ Ming was not wearing treasure armor, nor did he wear his princely clothes, but wearing a rich merchant young master's brocade silk, holding a fan in his hand, carrying the breeze blowing on the river on his back, but there was a bit of a squirrel.
On the side, Dongfang Jiran was dressed as a big butler, waiting on the side, while on the other side, he was dressed in leather armor with white eyebrows, but his body was full of murderous intent, but he was dressed as a guard, and this kind of dress did not attract much attention.
The ship marched across the Baxia Bridge, through the arched bridge hole, and continued to move forward, you can see the Wanlong City that is like a coiled dragon coiled on the bank of the Tianlong River, although the Wanlong City has only been built for a few hundred years, but the scale is magnificent, separated by more than ten miles, looking at it, but you can still see the towering gate tower of Wanlong City and the highest Yunzhong Palace in the city.
Wanlong City is not flat, but built on a slightly arched hillside, which may not be felt in the city, but in the distance, you can see the pattern of Wanlong City, which is high and low all around.
Smack, Situ Ming put away the fan in his hand at once, but there was a flickering light in his blazing eyes, Dijing, this king is here: "Bai Qi, two thousand soldiers and horses, seize the West Gate, and hold on until our army arrives, you can be sure"
"Your Highness, rest assured, as long as Bai Qi does not fall, the door of the imperial capital will always be open for His Highness" Bai Qi was not too excited, but under that calm voice, he had great confidence.
Everything went according to the plan, using the extermination of Li Tang's rangers, first dispatched Bai Qi's subordinate to the north, and then Situ Ming in the army meeting, pretending to be sick of heat fever, put forward a three-way plan for soldiers and horses to attack Chang'an, and the soldiers and horses were dispatched to the south again, and then, Situ Ming was seriously ill in the name of being locked in the camp and hidden, but he took advantage of the night to come out, and after converging with Bai Qi, he led hundreds of horsemen to a wharf on the Tianhe River, and after controlling there, he gathered the soldiers and horses who came later, and went to Yunzhou by boat.
On July 18, that is, today, they will attack the western city of the imperial capital, and the soldiers and horses sent before will arrive one after another in the next one to three days, and the fastest soldiers and horses will also arrive at night, and the number is only about 1,000 to 2,000, and in these three days, these thousands of soldiers and horses will face the siege of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding the imperial capital.
Can Bai Qi hold out until the arrival of the army, and then drive all the way into the palace, let him sit on that throne, and achieve his Situ Ming's dream of the emperor Situ Ming can be said to have pressed everything, and if he succeeds, he is the second Shenwu Emperor, and if he fails, he will go to the guillotine.
"This king is all up to you, this king swears by the heavens: as long as this king ascends to the throne, the two of you are the marshal and prime minister of the empire, three generations of hereditary marquis, if you violate, heaven and earth will be destroyed"
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The wind gradually rose, and in the sky, a dark cloud condensed, and a stormy posture was coming.
More than a dozen ships slowly approached the wharf in the west of the city, and the tax collector at the wharf still wanted to come forward to ask for taxes, but when they saw the elite soldiers with armor gushing out of the cabin like a tide, as well as the killing aura emanating from the body, they suddenly trembled like chaff and almost peed their pants.
"The forbidden army is transferred to change the guard, give way, give way" Li Niu, who is five big and three thick, is now not what it used to be, although he is not psychic, but he is practicing the murderous qi trick modified by Bai Qi, this murderous qi trick can be cultivated without spiritual power, of course, it is not as strong as the original version, but for a soldier, it is enough.
Under Bai Qi's command, as long as he can survive in the three major battles, he can be taught this murderous aura, maybe a soldier's murderous aura is not much, but when hundreds or thousands of people stand together, the murderous aura released is even stronger than the murderous aura released by Leng Zhuo's grandfather.
Li Niu's shout, although the people in the four places were frightened, but they were relieved, after all, this army of soldiers and horses is a forbidden army, not an enemy, so there is also chaos, only some small congestion, and the people who stopped busy looked towards these terrifying soldiers, guessing that this army of soldiers and horses belonged to which forbidden army.
From the wharf to the west of the city, the Golden Dragon Gate is only four or five miles away, along both sides of this big stone street, almost all of them are some big car stacks or warehouses and the like, and there are some open shops, but there are different shops in the city, the shops here only talk about buying and selling, but the goods are in large quantities, originally outside the city is not allowed to build shops and the like, but although the imperial capital rarely experienced war, so gradually the rules were dispersed.
Now there is only an empty field within a mile outside the moat, which is the final bottom line, Bai Qi has changed into the god-killing helmet that Leng Zhuo gave him, the god-killing battle armor, and the god-killing spear in his hand, but he walked away, because with the improvement of Bai Qi's strength, ordinary mounts have long been unable to ride, even ordinary demonic beast mounts, right?
Outside the Golden Dragon Gate, the commander of the guard in charge of defending the city has received the news, but he is puzzled, when was the order to change the guard issued, why didn't he find out: "There has been an official document from the guard yamen in the past two days, haven't I read it?"
"Back to the commander, in addition to the daily walking of official documents, there are no other official documents in the past two days, and it is impossible to miss anything" The secretary in charge of the official document is very categorical, this is related to the problem of jobs, and there can be no negligence.
"No, then where did this army of soldiers and horses come from?" The commander didn't expect that Bai Qi's line was here to rob him of the Golden Dragon City gate defense, so just when he was puzzled and wondered, Bai Qi had already led people to the Golden Dragon Gate.
"Stop, which garrison are you, but there is a troop transfer token, the official document of the military department" The battalion captain of the city gate watched Bai Qi and the others separate the crowd and only came towards the city gate, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
Bai Qi glanced at the defenses around the city gate, and then glanced at the city gate tower, snorted disdainfully, and a clear and low word came out of the corner of his mouth: "Kill"
Li Niu, who was on the side of Bai Ren, took the lead in breaking out, and directly pulled out the combat knife on his waist, the sharp blade directly cut through the air, flashing a cold light, and cutting the battalion captain who was completely caught off guard.
Blood splashed, it looked so dazzling in the sun, and the crowd that had not escaped far from the surrounding people who had gotten out of the way saw the blood, and suddenly flew up like a flock of ducks, and the city gate was suddenly chaotic.
But Bai Qi was a meteor in great stride, leading his subordinates to go straight to the Golden Dragon Gate in the west of the imperial capital.
