Three days passed in a hurry, and unexpectedly, during this time, Xuantian Sect did not have any superfluous movements, and it was a little terrifyingly calm!

This is a very abnormal behavior, normally speaking, since you choose to move, you should beat the opponent in the shortest possible time, how can you suddenly stop and give the opponent time to react?

Halfway through, it came to an abrupt halt, if it weren't for the lack of strength of the Xuantian Sect, it would be holding back the big move, brewing a more violent storm!

Tang Emperor Li Junlin's edict has been issued, and the troops of nearby states and counties are converging towards Chang'an City, and it is Xuantian Sect who is on guard.

Xue Potian's "Iron Floating Slaughter" did not withdraw, and he camped on the spot outside Chang'an City, ready to put on armor and go into battle to kill the enemy!

The "Iron Floating Massacre" was highly disciplined, but in order not to disturb the people, they did not choose to enter the city after repelling the white-clothed people, which could also react quickly when the enemy came, and not be passive.

Above the court, the relevant debate about the corresponding strategy of the Xuantian Sect has been going on for a long time.

During this time, they were basically divided into two factions, and the generals led by the "Gun God" Forestry and Xue Potian insisted on carrying out the war to the end, and they must fight to the death with Xuantian Sect!

As for the Wenchens, they were relatively calm, Xuantianzong paid a lot of price this time, but the same was true of the Tang Kingdom. And if it continues, Tang Guo may not be able to win, in their opinion, the best way is to negotiate peace and buy time.

Since no one can please if you continue to fight, why not stop the loss in time?

Zuodu Yushi Yuanzhi said: "Your Majesty, according to what the minister sees, the current situation is really not suitable to continue to fight with Xuantianzong, after all, now that the Southern Barbarians and the Western Wilderness are invading, there are rebellions in the border, and there is pressure from the Northern Desert Buddha Kingdom. ”

When the words fell, many officials seconded the proposal.

The "Gun God" Forestry came out of the ranks, first glanced at Yuan Zhen, and then arched his hand to Emperor Tang and said: "Your Majesty, according to what the ministers have seen, Lord Yuan is very wrong in what he said!" ”

"That Xuantian Sect's wolf ambition is now known to passers-by, if it can't be completely defeated this time, then I'm afraid that if we can't wait for the next day, my Tang Kingdom will usher in doom!"

Yuan Zhi sneered: "General Lin only sees the threat in front of him, but he doesn't see that if he continues to fight, it will be my Tang Guoben who will be shaken." ”

"Besides, although the Xuantian Sect is the leader of the Dao Sect, my Tang Kingdom is not at the mercy of others, if they are desperate, it will inevitably cause other sects to take advantage of it, I believe that they will not want to see this situation!"

"So, a temporary suspension is a good thing for both sides. In order to ignore the country for a while, in fact, he fell behind! ”

The yin and yang in his words are weird, ironic that forestry only knows about fighting, but he is short-sighted and can't see the problems behind it.

"Hmph, it's just a puppet, after all, he only knows how to convince people with his strength, and he is very vulgar!" Yuan Zhen thought so in his heart, but on the surface, he was thinking about the overall situation.

Forestry was not used to him either, snorted coldly, and said, "When Xuantian Sect attacked the city in white clothes, I don't know what Lord Yuan was doing? Now it's talking about it in this court, it's really sharp-toothed! ”

This angle is not tricky, but it is a fact, and Yuan Zhen can't refute it.

When the white-clothed people attacked the city, he naturally received the news, in fact, who among the princes of the court was not a deaf and clear-sighted person, how could he not know about such a big thing?

But most of them chose to wait and see, there are many parties in the court, the forces are complicated, and the interests of all parties are entangled, and they are not loyal to the king, but to the person sitting on the dragon chair!

There is a big difference between this, frankly speaking, even if the dragon chair is sitting on the crown prince Jianyuan, as long as the interests are enough for them, it is acceptable.

At this time, the secretary of the military department came out and said: "Your Majesty, now the defenders of Chang'an City have suffered serious losses in the previous battle, and they should rest and recuperate, and they should not start a war again!" ”

Hearing this, Forestry frowned, and was about to speak, but when he saw Xue Potian coming out, he looked around the audience and said, "Have you forgotten something, this battle is not for me Tang Guo to fight, but to fight!" Xuantian Sect has already wielded the butcher's knife, if he doesn't resist at this time, will he wait for the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species? ”

The military department was about to refute, but when he saw Xue Potian's fierce gaze sweeping over, there was an endless chill in it, which made the former tremble violently in his heart. He has been in the court for a long time, and he has enjoyed peaceful days for a long time, but Xue Potian has been fighting abroad for many years, and the ferocity on his body is undisguised!

After shocking the military department, Xue Potian continued: "The princes have been calm in Chang'an for too long, I'm afraid they have long forgotten what war is!" That's not a matter of words, it's a territory that needs the blood and lives of thousands of soldiers to protect, at this time, we can't retreat, once we retreat, it will be difficult to have a chance to fight back! ”

"To put it mildly, then Xuantian Sect has already regarded my Tang Kingdom as fish and meat on the chopping board, just waiting to boil the pot under water and feast on it! It's ridiculous to talk about peace now! ”

Zuodu Yushi Yuanzhi frowned and said, "How is General Xue treated?" ”

Xue Potian said loudly: "One word, fight!" ”

"Dignity is made out, not spoken! Even if it is the leader of the Dao Sect, who have I ever been afraid of in the Tang Kingdom for so many years? ”

Forestry clapped his hands and said, "Well said! ”

As a hot-blooded man, the enemy has bullied your head, how can you bear this breath?

The forestry character of the military general is straightforward, he doesn't know how to compromise, and he doesn't care about any interests, what he cares about is the dignity of the country, so he should not retreat!

Compromise at this time, how can you be worthy of the many dead soldiers, how can you face the people of the Tang Kingdom, how can you be qualified to say that you are a Tang person!

At this moment, the guards outside the palace hurriedly came to report and interrupted the discussion.

It's actually very unruly, but if that's the case, it means that something terrible may be happening!

The guard knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, there have been changes in Qizhou, Huazhou, and Shangzhou, and the people in the city have disappeared, and now it has become a dead city!" ”

When these words fell, the princes in the court were in an uproar, Tang Huang's body trembled, his uncontrollable body leaned forward, and shouted: "Can you find out the reason?" ”

The guard shook his head and said, "The news has just come back, and there is nothing unusual before this. ”

In the deathly silence, the same sentence seemed to come to everyone's hearts: "How is this possible?" ”

From their stunned faces, they could feel the shock brought by this sudden news! It's like smashing a boulder down in the calm waters of a lake, and in an instant it stirs up a stormy wave!

Xue Potian's face was gloomy, the distance between these three states and Chang'an is not too far, although the area is not large, but there are hundreds of thousands of people combined, and now they have disappeared suddenly, this is an unimaginable event!

"The house leak happened to rain overnight", now that the crisis of Xuantian Sect has not been resolved, but such a major event has happened, is it true that the national fortunes of the Eastern Tang Dynasty have begun to decline?

At the same time as the war between Xuantian Sect and the Tang Kingdom started, such a strange thing happened in Sanzhou, Xue Potian instinctively felt that there might be a key to these two things with his intuition of marching and fighting for many years, but it was difficult to sort out the key for a while!

The next thing that needs to be discussed is one more thing, Li Junlin sat on the dragon chair, and the sadness between his eyebrows became more and more solemn......

……

Meng Yifan and Feng Lao returned to the academy after the battle, and the latter had a broken arm, and his combat power was weakened before his injuries healed.

After Lin Yan said goodbye to the two, he did not return to the academy for the time being, after all, his identity as a descendant of the Momen is still relatively sensitive, and there are many people in the academy who are hostile to him.

He took Mingya back to the old man Yang's small courtyard, although the old man complained about Lin Yan on the surface, but he was quite happy in his heart.

The old man has no children and no daughters living here alone, and when Lin Yan and Mingya are there, it is a happy time for him.

Later, both of them left, and he also knew from some channels that something happened to Lin Yan, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. See you now, but it's a surprise!

Calling Xue Nishang and Xu Dahai here, together with some friends from the academy at the beginning, such as Mo Li, Tao Xiaotao and other women, everyone looked back on the past and couldn't help but sigh for a while.

Now only in the past few years, there are some things that are wrong, Li Zongsheng joined the army and fought abroad, and some students of the same generation have their own opportunities, and their lives have developed along different trajectories.

Lin Yan is now a martial artist of the Innate Realm, and he has even shined in that battle, which has attracted a lot of attention, but he himself doesn't care much about it.

The successive battles with high-level martial artists made Lin Yan's heart feel quite deep, and his state of mind became more and more complete, and his understanding of sword techniques deepened.

The road of martial arts is long, the road is difficult and difficult, it is impossible to achieve it overnight, no matter how amazing Lin Yan is, it is impossible to make another breakthrough in the short term, he can only improve from other aspects and continue to improve.

In the past few days, he also deliberately took the time to go to "Xu Ji", where there are still a lot of dividends! No matter what time it is, silver is still very important!

Of course, he mainly wants to meet Xu An, and it is not necessarily a good thing to continue to cultivate after he has some understanding.

Xu An was naturally very happy to see Lin Yan, who taught some small tricks of tricks. It is inconvenient for Lin Yan to reveal profound things, and it will set Xu An on fire as an ordinary person, but fortunately he is just making some small objects, and superficial knowledge is enough.

Xuantian Sect will inevitably make a comeback, and Lin Yan doesn't plan to leave, he wants to fight here, not for the court, not for the king, but for the sake of the spirit in his chest!

In the past few days, he has better understood why he is pulling out his sword, what he is facing, and what he wants to protect!

He is not guarding this city, but the people who value it!
