Chapter 23: The Storm and the Storm

The words were divided into two ends, after the officers and soldiers were frightened by Lu Li and fled to Dangshan Pavilion, these officers and soldiers finally settled down under the comfort of the soldiers.

"Guo... Master Guo, the terrifying snake immortal White Emperor didn't chase after him, right? ”

rode a horse and galloped all the way, but it made this Dangjun magistrate Xue Zhong a little unbearable.

While panting, he looked around at the sky in horror and finally shouted to Guo Ming.

"Nope! My lord, the White Emperor will not chase me in the future. ”

Guo Ming was also a little frightened, and said with a long sigh of relief.

"That's good, that's good."

Dangjun Magistrate Xue Zhong finally felt a little relieved when he heard this, but soon he looked left and right, and suddenly wondered:

"Huh? Lord Guo, where is your brother Guo Bei? ”

When Guo Ming heard this, he smiled bitterly on his face.

"My lord, my brother wants to ask the Xiandu Demon to be stunned, no matter how I shouted him when there was chaos before, he won't leave, I'm afraid that now there will be less luck!"

"Ahh Is he still at the foot of the fairy mountain? ”

"I think so, but maybe he's already ...... because we rashly angered the White Emperor."

Guo Ming didn't say the rest of the words, but Xue Zhong also understood.

Xue Zhong's expression suddenly fell into a deep groan when he heard this.

His face hesitated, and he said for a long moment before he said, "Lord Guo, do you think that White Emperor is really the White Emperor who represents my Great Qin Heavenly Mandate?" ”

When Guo Ming heard this, he was a little stunned, and then hesitated:

"I can't say it right now, but I think it's better."

"Preferably?"

Xue Zhong somewhat understood what Guo Ming said.

His eyes were cloudy, and he finally slapped his thigh, and then said to many soldiers with an angry face:

"It must be because of the snake body that Liu Ji beheaded the White Emperor before, so the White Emperor also has a dislike for all of us Qin officials!"

"As a citizen of Shaohao, but unable to protect the incarnation of the White Emperor, this is the dereliction of duty of our Qin officials!"

"Damn! I only hate that the county guard is old and frail and can't personally take the head of Liu Ji in Surabaya, otherwise I will definitely take his head to worship the White Emperor, hoping that the White Emperor can forgive us and others. ”

"Generals, are there any warriors who are willing to take the head of Liu Ji in Surabaya for me?"

"You know, that Surabaya Liu Ji is the killer of the son of Haotian, as long as you take down the head of Surabaya Liu Ji, it is easy to seek immortals and wealth!"

In the Qin Dynasty, the county guard who ate 2,000 stones could not go out of the county at will, let alone transfer troops across the border.

If the county guard wants to lead troops out of bounds, he must be ordered by the court.

For this reason, Xue Zhong's intention was naturally to find someone to assassinate Liu Bang.

The surrounding soldiers looked at each other, remembering the immortal before, the white emperor, although it was scary, but looking back, it was almost certain that it was an immortal.

Therefore, three people quickly stood out in a group of people.

"My lord, I'm waiting for you!"

"Good! is worthy of my Dangjun son! That's the kind of courage you deserve! ”

"Master Guo! Then choose dozens of elite soldiers with these three warriors, let them dress up together, and set off as soon as possible! ”

"This matter should not be slow, you must bring back the head of Liu Ji in Surabaya before the wax sacrifice, can you hear it clearly?"

"My lord, I'll hear you clearly!"

"Good! Go down and pack your bags! The magistrate of this county is waiting for the triumphant return of the warriors! ”

Xue Zhong also suddenly became resolute in this matter, and it is conceivable that he also has an inexplicable fanaticism for immortals.

The chief official Guo Ming already understood Xue Zhong's thoughts on this matter, so he didn't hesitate to go down and make arrangements with these people.

And just when Guo Ming went down to make arrangements, Zhao Yu, the eunuch who had disappeared for a while, appeared.

This Zhao Yu was frightened by the White Emperor before, and when he escaped, he fell to the ground, which can be described as extremely embarrassed.

But it's okay to change your outfit at this time.

It's just that he came to find Xue Zhong obviously not for the matter of the White Emperor before.

"Lord Xue, come and report quickly, that Chen Sheng's thief army has already attacked Chen County, the capital of Huaiyang County, after only slightly repairing it, I am afraid that now these rebels have surrounded Chen County!!"

"Lord Xue, I'm afraid we don't have to make plans now!"

"Once these thieves take Chen County down, then they can attack the attack directly!!"

Zhao Yu's face was no different at this moment than the one he had been frightened by the White Emperor before.

Not only was the eunuch Zhao Yu frightened, but Xue Zhong himself was also frightened.

"How is that possible? How dare these thieves? ”

Xue Zhong's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he was still muttering as he paced:

"Huaiyang County shouldn't lose Chen County so quickly, right?"

"No, now these thieves can have at least one or two thousand chariots, fifty or sixty thousand foot soldiers, if you gather some rebellious remnants of the Six Kingdoms along the road, I am afraid that the army will definitely exceed 100,000~"

"As soon as the 100,000 army arrives, there is no possibility of winning at all with the little strength of Huaiyang County!"

"Haotian is above! What is Your Majesty and the court doing? Why is there no intention to gather troops until now, even if the court is worried about the gathering of troops in various counties, but it should always gather some large troops from Xianyang to suppress this thief army, right? ”

"Why is the situation so rotten?"

Xue Zhong's face looked extremely distressed.

"Lord Xue! Now is not the time for you to say this, the situation has eroded, and we must recruit the troops of the remaining counties as soon as possible! ”

"If the thief army takes Huaiyang County, I'm only afraid that they will make a comeback, not to mention that we have the White Emperor here!"

Prison Shi Zhao Yu's face looked very eager.

"That's right! We have the White Emperor here! ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Xue Zhong suddenly burst out laughing as if he had found a life-saving straw.

"Lord Zhao, you are really a person who wakes up in a dream, the old man will order someone to send a message to Xianyang, and the news here will be transmitted to Xianyang as soon as possible!"

"In addition, this is not enough, we must also immediately spread the news of the birth of the White Emperor in Mangdang Mountain, and it is best to let Chen Sheng's thief army know all this as soon as possible."

Eunuch Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment.

Then he looked a little puzzled and said, "Lord Zhao, what do you mean by this?" ”

Looking at the stupid appearance of the eunuch Zhao Yu, Xue Zhong forcibly suppressed the ridicule in his heart, and immediately explained:

"Your Majesty and the court don't let the counties gather troops, and may even block the news, is it just that they are afraid that someone will take the opportunity to cause trouble?"

"But if the matter of the White Emperor reaches Xianyang, Lord Zhao, do you think Your Majesty will still be able to sit still?"

"As long as Your Majesty gathers troops to come, then there is a great possibility that this thief army will be defeated, and it can also deal a major blow to those who still have ambitions in the land of Zhuxia."

"In addition, even if Xianyang is still unmoved, can the thief army be indifferent after learning about the White Emperor? As long as they dare to come, hehe~ Not to mention the anger of the White Emperor, we can also be regarded as buying the last time for my Great Qin Guozuo. ”

"So, does Lord Zhao understand now?"

When the eunuch Zhao Yu heard this, his brows immediately furrowed.

Although he is not too smart, he understands a truth, that is, the power of immortals is mysterious and unpredictable.

"Lord Xue, let's not talk about the sacrifice to the White Emperor that we said before, if you use the White Emperor like this, you are not afraid of being seen through by the immortals?"

"You're not afraid of being hated by the immortals, I'm terrible, I won't stop you if you want to do this, but don't count me in, I won't do this with you."

Zhao Yu has already seen immortals, although he is not good at learning as a eunuch, he is superstitious, so he has been so frightened before, he directly drew a line with Xue Zhong.

Xue Zhong hesitated for a moment when he heard this, but finally sighed deeply.

"Okay, this matter should be done by the old man alone, for the sake of Daqin, for Your Majesty, there is only so much I can do, and then I will leave it to Providence~"
