When the whole south gradually became stable, Xiliangshan became a place of concern for all the southern monks. To be precise, it was to cross the Xiliang Mountain and enter a city in the Heyang Mountain, which became the point of view of the vast majority of southern monks.

No one knew where the news came from, but in a short time, many people began to talk about one thing - thousands of Central Plains monks were annihilated in Xiliang Mountain.

In a total of two battles, thousands of Central Plains monks were annihilated, and such a record had a great impact on any force in the south. Even those great cities that have not yet returned to the king of Shunning, when they heard the news, many monks were extremely shocked.

You must know that the reason why these monks were able to fight against King Ning was mainly because during the chaos in the south, they themselves also resisted the attack of the Central Plains monks, but the monks who had fought against the Central Plains monks knew the terrible Central Plains monks, and those low-level monks who were obviously low in cultivation, but had a good degree of cooperation, were able to exert amazing combat power on the battlefield.

Even if it was them, they only repelled the Central Plains monks in the end, and never thought that they would be able to annihilate a group of Central Plains monks.

When King Ning began to appease other forces in the south, although he also staged a good show of repelling the Central Plains monk clan again and again, he never only repelled it, and there was never a large-scale annihilation record.

However, it is rumored that a young man named Li Mingyang, with a team mainly composed of more than 10,000 civilians, with a total of nearly 1,000 monks, has defeated the Central Plains monks twice, and it is annihilation rather than a simple repulsion.

This situation may not be very effective if it is just a few people who talk about it lightly, but many people in the Zhenling Pavilion all over the south are also talking about it constantly, and some of them even have witnessed the first battle.

As many monks continued to relay it, and the news of the second battle spread again, the name Li Mingyang began to resound in the south. In the south, which was plagued by the monks of the Central Plains, many people did not even want to inquire into the truth of the news, believing that this qiē was true, because they needed such a real and hearty victory over the monks of the Central Plains to inspire people.

But with the news of the second war, many people also heard some strange news.

King Ning, who had already integrated most of the south, had an affair with the Central Plains monks. According to rumors, these Central Plains monks who fought in the south were completely recruited by King Ning himself, and they fought in the south, completely disrupting the pattern in the south, and then he came forward to save thousands of southern monks from fire and water, and reaped the benefits of the fisherman.

The spread of this news instantly set off a thousand waves in the south. The south, which had finally calmed down, became boiling again. In fact, many people were equally skeptical about the news that came out suddenly, the first point is that this news came with the news of Li Mingyang's second victory over the Central Plains monks, but about the second battle, the vast majority of monks have only heard that almost no monks can stand up in this battle and say that he has seen it with his own eyes.

The specific description of the second battle is also quite vague, almost only the word win, and the comparison of the strength of the enemy and us is very exaggerated. One thousand against seven thousand, or even almost total annihilation, people certainly like to hear the news that the Central Plains monks were completely annihilated, but such a battle is unbelievable to the vast majority of monks. The strength of the Central Plains monks has already been appreciated by the southern monks, and if it is said that the 7,000 southern monks have completely annihilated 1,000 Central Plains monks, it is possible to believe it.

For a time, there were different opinions, some people believed, some doubted, and some even mentioned that they would go to Heyang Mountain to find out. It's just that more sane southern monks are paying attention to one point—how King Ning will respond to this matter.

If you want to say that the news that came out with the second battle, the one who was most affected was definitely King Ning. Today's King Ning is no longer the idle prince who used to be in a corner of Xuanhua Mansion in the past, after integrating most of the south, King Ning's strength is unprecedentedly strong, and this strength needs a good stability to maintain. Obviously, this news will make many forces who have just returned to the king of Shunning have doubts in their hearts.

This news may sound absurd, but it seems to stand up to scrutiny. In the south now, about the two major battles between Li Mingyang and the Central Plains monks, although the second battle can only be regarded as a legend, the first battle has really happened. Maybe Li Mingyang is different from ordinary people, and his subordinates are strong, but no matter what the reason, Li Mingyang can defeat the Central Plains monks, and even annihilate 2,000 Central Plains monks with inferior troops, this battle makes people realize that the Central Plains monks are not invincible, as long as they have enough strength.

It seems that this judgment seems to be a complete nonsense, and it is precisely because of the lack of strength that the Southern Monk will die and flee under the butcher's knife of the Central Plains Monk. However, the elite soldiers under the command of King Ning are also very powerful, and the reason why many forces have taken refuge is because they have seen the strength of King Ning. Many small forces in the south may not have the strength to confront the Central Plains monks, but King Ning certainly has the strength.

It's just that there is one thing that really puzzles many people, that is, why King Ning has only driven away the Central Plains monks until now, and there has not been a real killing. Every time King Ning went out, he led 10,000 elite soldiers under his command, and every time he faced the Central Plains monks, there were only about 3,000 at most, but 10,000 against 3,000 was only a "big battle", and then he couldn't even leave the body of a Central Plains monk.

At first, no one questioned this too much, all they prayed for was stability in the south. It's just that when the news of King Ning's collusion with the Central Plains monks spread, people who care about it can't help but think of this.

The news of the two wars continued to spread, and the fame of the genius boy Li Mingyang began to spread in the south. It's just that there are quite a few people who question him. But now, the number of people questioning King Ning has also quietly increased.

But in any case, Heyang City in Heyang Mountain has completely become the place that the southern monks pay the most attention to. Li Mingyang's feud with the Central Plains Monk is a foregone conclusion, no matter how King Ning will deal with the "rumors" about him next, at least the Central Plains Monk will definitely not give up. Unless they had already fled from the south, otherwise, the Central Plains monks would inevitably go to Heyang City to seek revenge.

Everyone is waiting for this day to come.

Ningwangfu.

King Ning no longer has the calmness of the past, and he can't even see the excitement on his face after integrating the south, King Ning walked around the hall with an irritable face, and many of the generals under him didn't dare to take a breath. They all knew why King Ning was manic, but this matter was something they couldn't solve either.

"Who, who the hell, say, tell me, who the hell leaked this. King Ning grabbed a general casually and asked in a sharp voice.

The general looked at the others helplessly, and didn't dare to say a word back to King Ning.

Yun Tao's face was also gloomy at this time, and at the same time that King Ning received the news of his own defeat, Yun Tao also received the news that Zong Shen had died outside Heyang City. When he heard the news, Yun Tao was stunned.

Zong Shen is the number one general under Yun Tao, and even in fact, there is not much difference between Zong Shen and Yun Tao, how exquisite Zong Shen's way of using troops is Yun Tao knows very well, otherwise he would not be at ease to hand over the five thousand men to Zong Shen. It's just that he can't accept it no matter what, Zong Shen, who led five thousand elite soldiers, and even united two thousand monks from the Ning Palace, ended up dying outside Heyang City, and even had no bones.

Yun Tao couldn't accept this reality, but all the deserters who fled back made him have to face this result.

Seeing King Ning restlessly venting his anger on his subordinates, Yun Tao also felt a burst of irritability in his heart. If it weren't for King Ning's anxious action and closing the net when he shouldn't have done so, they wouldn't have withdrawn from the battlefield in advance, and they would have proceeded according to the plan, and there would have been no such changes.

In a fit of rage, Yun Tao suddenly stepped forward and pulled King Ning's hand away, and said coldly: "What's the use of using your subordinates to be angry now, it's just a little bit of groundless news, is it possible that you are still worried that it will affect your current power because of this?"

"A little bit is groundless?" King Ning looked at Yun Tao with a hideous face and sneered: "What do you mean that there is no basis, these monks who have escaped are not people?

"Will you let them tell these things?" Yun Tao asked directly: "The people who died are all our people, and the people who escaped back are also our people, and those monks outside are just chasing after the wind and shadows and spreading some news indiscriminately, can't you even suppress this little thing?"

"You!" King Ning's eyes glared at the boss, Yun Tao's attitude made him want to kill this guy who didn't know what to do now, but thinking of the forces behind him, he still endured it, and finally said: "Regardless of whether the people outside are chasing the wind or not, I must solve this matter as much as possible, and I must not let the situation that has just stabilized become turbulent again." ”

"It's a must, you just do yours. Yun Tao said lukewarmly.

"You need to cooperate with me. King Ning said.

"How to cooperate?" asked Yuntao.

"You send people to attack Pang Lion City, and then I take people to the rescue, and finally let me kill them. King Ning said bluntly: "Didn't they say that I never killed the Central Plains monks, I will kill them this time, and then I will see what else they can say." ”

Yun Tao looked at King Ning as if he was looking at an idiot, and the whimsy of the other party made him not know what else to say for a while, and finally he slowly said, "Are you sure you are not talking nonsense?"

King Ning's forehead suddenly swelled.

It's just that Yun Tao didn't give him a chance to be angry, and suddenly said in a cold tone: "I came here on the order of King Cheng to help you integrate the south, and I completed the plan I made before without deviation, it was you who first disrupted my plan, and now the south cannot be completely integrated, and it has become rumored again, this is all something you need to deal with again." If I could, I wouldn't refuse to play a few more scenes with you, but if you want to kill my people, sue you, you're thinking too much. ”

Still not giving King Ning a chance to speak, Yun Tao continued: "Don't forget, my Lord Ning, King Cheng supported you to dominate the south, but you have to take back enough in return, if you are really not beautiful enough, we have a way to replace you with someone else, don't doubt our ability." ”

This was the first time Yun Tao had spoken so indifferently to King Ning since he entered the south, and his attitude even shocked many of King Ning's generals around him, they only knew that Yun Tao was the person sent by the Central Plains to support this plan, but they didn't expect him to dare to talk to King Ning like this.

But what made people even more shocking was that after King Ning's face turned blue and red for a while, he actually endured it alive, and even asked with a smile: "Then you say, what should I do about this matter?"

Yun Tao looked at King Ning with a little surprise, and Yun Tao felt very fresh about King Ning's sudden awakening. At least his self-confidence has not swelled to the stupid Cheng Dù, although they are both kings, but the gap between King Ning and King Cheng is not a star and a half.

Yun Tao didn't see the viciousness in King Ning's eyes under his forbearance, but thinking of the order given by King Cheng, if King Ning really fell, he wouldn't be able to go back and deal with it, thinking about it, Yun Tao opened his mouth and said: "If nothing else, it must be the monk of Heyang City who spread the news." We all have the same enemy now, and our enemy knows this, so he has to find you as much as he can to relieve the pressure on his side. ”

The so-called common enemy is naturally Li Mingyang. Outsiders don't know, but Yun Tao knows very well that a total of 7,000 of his men died at the hands of Li Mingyang, although King Ning's people did not die as many as them, but King Ning was also affected a lot, and getting rid of Li Mingyang was the most important thing they needed to do now.

"What to do?" asked King Ning again.

Yun Tao replied directly: "Send someone over to kill him, don't have any accidents, this time you must let him die there." Then put the basin that secretly united with the monks of the Central Plains directly on his hand, and what news they transmitted, when the time comes, press it on his body as it is, I believe that there must be many people who are willing to believe it. ”

King Ning nodded decisively, but said with a slight hesitation: "Now that this is a sensitive time, will I be a little weak in attacking Heyang City rashly?" ”

Yun Tao shook his head: "You can't do anything if you are timid, and announce to the outside world that Li Mingyang is a rebel general of the palace, stealing a large number of secret methods and magic weapons and spirit stones from the palace, didn't you reward him before, but now that you know his whereabouts, what is wrong with directly sending troops to recruit him." ”

King Ning finally made up his mind, and said with hatred in his eyes: "Okay, that's it." ”

"Hmm. Yun Tao also made a decision: "This time, my people will also act with you." ”
