"Your Majesty, your subordinates are not talented, and they are willing to go to Xiongzhou with these martial arts people." Li Yan took the initiative to ask.

These martial arts people just lack a leader of the Great Shun Army, so Li Zicheng agreed and let Li Yan be the leading brother.

Li Yan left Qingdu City with a group of martial arts masters and came to Xiongzhou......

After Li Yan left, Niu Jinxing said to Li Zicheng again: "Your Majesty, the martial arts people in the rivers and lakes have always been with the imperial court, and they can't pinch clay and sand together. They are debauched and uninhibited, and the court is not easy to restrain them, just like Ouyang Changgeng of the Heaven and Earth Sect, who turned his face on the spot when he disagreed, obviously dissatisfied with His Majesty. In the future, Your Majesty will rule the world, and it will also be a problem for your henchmen."

"The prime minister has a point." Li Zicheng nodded approvingly, if he hadn't been losing the battle right now, how could he, Li Zicheng, be able to be reckless in these rivers and lakes?

Niu Jinxing leaned into Li Zicheng's ear again, "Your Majesty, Li Junshi is too close to these people in the rivers and lakes, the former is in the Ming Dynasty, he advocates peace talks with Chongzhen Chan, so that His Majesty has lost tens of millions of taels of silver and so much grain, all kinds of signs show that Li Yan has the intention of returning to the rivers and lakes, and has the heart of leaning towards the Ming Dynasty."

"I see." Li Zicheng's face sank like water, and he nodded thoughtfully, if he Li Yan really dared to betray me, I would kill him!

……

Xiongzhou. Chongzhen's camp.

Chongzhen gave Tang Wancai medicine, and sure enough, within three days, Tang Wancai's serious injury was miraculously healed as before.

Not even a single scar remained.

At this moment, everyone once again shocked Chongzhen as a celestial.

Even if Hua Tuo is alive and Bian Que is reborn, he can't do it.

In particular, Tang Wancai and Li Miniang were grateful to Chongzhen, Tang Wancai lay on the ground, kowtowed vigorously, and said that this life was given by the emperor, and sooner or later it had to be returned to the emperor, and he couldn't wait to die for Chongzhen now.

Chongzhen laughed and excused himself: "Hahaha, this is the credit of the medicine, it is all the credit of the demon beast, it was scratched by the spirit monkey, and it was cured by the gall of the spirit monkey.

Everyone laughed, and Wang Chengen felt that what the emperor said was too philosophical.

Chongzhen passed the decree, pulled out the camp, and continued to hurry.

Because of the Demon Sect's disturbance and Tang Wancai's injury, he was originally going to rest here for one night, but it was delayed for two days.

For more than 200 miles, it took two or three days for the large army to reach Qingdu.

However, Chongzhen learned that the battle of Qingdu had not yet been decided, so he was not in a hurry to hurry, so the two of them fought first.

As soon as Chongzhen's decree was handed down, a scout came to report that Ma Bao's vanguard camp was besieged by the Demon Sect.

Chongzhen sneered, "This Demon Sect is too rampant, how dare you attack my vanguard camp with great fanfare? I might as well train them first!"

Chongzhen asked for details, and sent someone to inquire about the situation of the Demon Sect.

Then he immediately took Tang Wancai, Li Yiniang, Li Moran and Lu Xiaofeng and other 1,000 Jinyi guards Pegasus to support the pioneer battalion, and let the remaining 30,000 horses and let Wang Chengen follow him......

The highest peak in Xiongzhou, Mowangling, is only more than 20 miles away from Mabao's pioneer camp, and the altitude of Mowangling is not high, only more than 700 meters.

The Demon King Ridge is surrounded by dense forests, there is a cave in the dense forest, the cave is very spacious, the entrance of the cave is a cliff, here is the location of the Mingjiao Hebei rudder.

More than a month ago, the Mingjiao Sect advocated that the Heavenly Master and the six elders of the sect gathered at the Guangming Peak of Zhongnan Mountain, the head of Shaanxi.

Because the news that Emperor Chongzhen of the Great Ming Dynasty was going to challenge the world's martial arts had come out, and Mingjiao was also involved.

This thousand-year-old sect, known as the Demon Cult, has been silent for hundreds of years, and they plan to re-emerge.

This time, they not only have to be enemies of the so-called famous and decent families in the world, but also enemies of the Ming court.

Needless to say, more than 100 years ago, the Ming Dynasty designated the Ming Sect as a demon sect, and the White Lotus Sect and the Heaven and Earth Sect were grouped together, collectively referred to as the cult, and sent troops to suppress it.

Now the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, the country is on the verge of falling apart, Li Zicheng established Dashun, Zhang Xianzhong established Daxi, and there are warlords and mercenaries everywhere who are self-respecting, do not listen to the imperial court, and are full

Qing *** is also here to harass.

The vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of the hero.

Mingjiao felt that the time for them to reappear had fallen.

At first, there were only 7 people in Zhang Tianshi, Zhang Tianshi served as the sect leader, and the six masters of his network were called the six elders of the Ming Sect.

After the six elders worshiped the sect leader, Zhang Tianshi passed down the holy fire order, ordering the two elders of Nanyue and Beichen to establish the Hebei rudder, and ordering the two elders of Tianlong and Didu to establish the Shanxi rudder. Zhang Tianshi took the two elders of Mingjiao, Nangong Xuanbei and Gongyue, to establish the general helm of Shaanxi.

After Nanyue Beichen received the order, he came to Hebei and chose Bazhou, because it was relatively close to Daming Shangjing.

The world was in turmoil, so Mingjiao developed rapidly, and in less than a month, the Hebei branch of Mingjiao exceeded 1,000 congregations.

The doctrine pursued by Mingjiao is that where there is a holy fire, there is a bright top.

At this time, in the Guangming Cave at the top of the Demon King Ridge, there were more than 1,000 believers worshipping the holy fire.

A man and a woman at the head sat at the top.

The man wears a half-mask, and the woman has a delicate face and long flowing hair.

"Burn my body, blazing with the flames. What is the joy of life, and why is it so painful to die? For the good to eliminate the evil, but the light is the same. Joy and sorrow are dust. Have mercy on me, and there is much sorrow ......

Then start kowtowing.

After worshipping the sacred fire, a delicate woman with long flowing hair asked the masked man in a sharp voice, "Have you taken a fancy to that demon girl of the White Lotus Sect?"

Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen
