Chapter 65: Evil Opponents
Because they had launched a surprise attack after midnight, the enemy was killed in the darkness of the night before they could figure out what was going on, and many of the soldiers even died in their sleep.
The soldiers who escaped by chance seemed to have a real nightmare, only remembering that the moonlight was red that night, and there were occasionally a few dark clouds in the sky, and the Gartnu army that quietly attacked was not ordinary soldiers, because their appearance was too terrifying, and the methods of slaughter were extremely cruel.
No one knew what was going on, but they fled for their lives in the firelight, and if they moved a little slowly, they were slashed to death by the swarming skeleton soldiers.
Since then, Gartnu I's military exploits have become more and more, and with his invincible conquest, the power of the Gartnu family has gradually become stronger, and even the former opponent Nongqi family has been suppressed by him little by little. As for the other rivals, they were either embarrassed by the forces of Gartnu, or they were inexplicably strewn on the streets.
The people of Capricorn had to swallow their anger at the Gartnu family, and even dared to be angry.
However, Gartnu I always had a pimple in his heart, that is, the souls of him and the heirs of the family will always be mortgaged in the hands of evil spirits, and no matter how he tries his best, there will only be one male heir to his family, and every time at midnight on a full moon night, he will become miserable, as if he has been drained of all his blood, and his complexion will become pale and bruised, like a blood-sucking zombie, and he can only be miserable*.
Gartnu I knew very well that as long as he didn't return the spear to the evil spirit, then the curse would last, but even if he returned the spear to the evil spirit, then the curse would definitely be removed?
Gartnu knew that the other party was a cunning and terrible demon, so the answer was unknown. Gartnu I knew very well that he regretted that he had drawn the spear that sealed the evil spirits out of a moment of greed, but there was no regret medicine in the world.
He knew that unless he killed the evil spirit, he and the heirs of his family would never be able to free himself from this curse and would continue to suffer forever.
When Gartnu I learned from a visiting envoy that there was a magical book hidden in the Central Plains.
From the description in the envoy's mouth, he learned that the Book of Heaven had magical powers, which could allow people to absorb the infinite divine power of the universe, conquer everything, and even kill all powerful enemies. But this book has been missing for a long time, and no one knows where it went.
So Gartnu I thought that if he obtained the magical power of this book of heaven, wouldn't he be able to kill the evil spirits with the help of divine power, thus breaking the curse of the evil spirits and reclaiming their souls?
Therefore, since then, Gartnu I has continuously sent reliable subordinates to the Central Plains to find the whereabouts of the book of heaven.
Until one day, when the eyeliner sent out heard that the Book of Heaven was hidden in a secret cave on the Jade Void Mountain, King Gartnu I was overjoyed, but he was already too old, so he sent King Gartnu II to personally lead people to find the Book of Heaven.
Later, the story of the Great White Snake fighting the Exotics happened.
The Great White Snake family gave their lives to protect the Book of Heaven, and Gartnu II was also killed by the Great White Snake.
The sorcerer and the two warriors who had escaped had stolen the Qiankun Sword and Dragon's Bloodstone, but they had no idea of the value of the two treasures. But because the Book of Heaven was taken by the Xuanji hermit at that time, fortunately it was not stolen.
And because the three wizards didn't know the value and use of the Qiankun Sword and Dragon's Blood Stone, they sold these two priceless treasures to the people, and just took the money and fled separately.
With the summoning power of his spear, the heir of General Gartnu has won every war that is considered difficult by others, so his family is inviolable and mysterious in the eyes of outsiders.
Others don't know much about the affairs of the Gartnu family, only that they have made countless military exploits and are in power.
This time, the descendants of King Aroldo of Capricorn ordered Gartnu III to lead a large army to attack the Western Regions in order to gain more tribute and spheres of influence.
Gartnut III then led his army all the way to the border city near the Central Plains. Along the way, he burned and looted countless city-states, and mourned all over the field for a while.
Gartnu's army was very ruthless, so they were invincible and invincible along the way, and they approached the Central Plains.
When the news reached the capital, it coincided with the school competition, so the emperor decided to let Huyan Ruiqi, who won the crown of martial arts, and Huyan Liexiong, the general who protected the country, personally lead 300,000 male soldiers to conquer the border cities of the Western Regions, so as to quell the invasion of the Capricorn Kingdom and show the might of our great power.
I don't know what the result will be, and even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty don't know the certainty of victory or defeat.
You must know that everyone has heard some rumors about General Gartnu, although the rumors are miraculous, but those soldiers who have survived the catastrophe and even seen the battlefield with their own eyes are talking about the tiger's color.
Therefore, many people seem to understand something, and they know that Huyan's father and son may be more than lucky.
Although Huyan Liexiong is old and strong, and he also brought an army of 300,000, but for a Capricorn general who is protected by evil spirits, it is impossible to predict the outcome of those rumored ghost soldiers alone.
Huyan Liexiong and his entourage left the capital and returned to the foot of Yuxu Mountain to rest for half a month.
Murong Zhongyong learned that Huyan Ruiqi had won the martial champion and obtained the title of General of Dingguo, and brought his family to the Protector General's Mansion to celebrate.
As soon as he entered the door, Murong Zhongyong smiled and arched his hand and said: "Brother Huyan, congratulations! Your Ruiqi is the best and the best! And he also won the title of General of Dingguo, which is simply a glorious ancestor!"
Huyan Liexiong saw that Murong Zhongyong came to celebrate so enthusiastically, and hurriedly let him sit on the throne to serve him with good tea and wine.
When he learned that half a month later, Huyan Liexiong would lead troops with Ruiqi to quell the war in the Western Regions, Murong Zhongyong looked concerned.
"Brother Huyan, this expedition, I don't know if my brother has a chance of winning in his heart?"
Huyan Liexiong showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, he had heard the rumors of the Gartanu family of the Capricorn Kingdom in the capital as early as in the capital, and he knew that it was very risky to go here, and this was not a regular war.
For this crusade against the Capricorn Kingdom, Hu Yanlie was extremely uneasy, but since the emperor was in his body, he couldn't shirk it.
So Huyan Liexiong settled down, and Kan Kan said: "Since the emperor has named Ruiqi as the general of Dingguo, and he is the current martial champion. The emperor entrusted my father and son with such a heavy responsibility, of course, we will never give up. As for whether there is life or death on the battlefield in the future, it will depend on the emperor's grace. As the old saying goes, life and death are destined for wealth and wealth, no matter how strong the Gartanu of Capricorn is, we must go all out. ”
