Chapter 279: Once Upon a Time in the Yellow Sands
The long night is silent, and the moon is condensed.
Under the mottled shadows of the trees, the two stood staring at each other.
Hearing that Baili said that the person who was held hostage as a proton was himself, Mo Yiyue couldn't help but let out a long breath in her heart. I don't want him to be a generation of military gods, and he was so bumpy when he was a teenager.
"I have been dormant in the imperial city for 20 years, and in the past 20 years, I have been bullied, tasted the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and seen the vicissitudes of the world. In the end, he followed a strange man who lived in seclusion in the imperial city of Xiliang and learned a skill. I also have a junior brother, who is the smoke cloud of the Xinghai Sect.
And my teacher, we didn't know his name until he died.
Later, the news of my father's death spread to the imperial city, and Yin Lan found me and asked me to return to Xiliang to succeed the monarch.
At that time, the situation in Xiliang was already very serious. After my father's death, except for Anmo City, the other five cities have become independent. Quicksand City and Huangsha City have repeatedly besieged Anmo City, but they have not succeeded, while Wind Sand City, Mingsha City and Mohai City have been fighting over water problems. Years of war have made Xiliang, which was not wealthy, even more desolate, and it is not an exaggeration to describe Xiliang at that time as the people were not happy. In addition to these, the Mofengling Bear Clan, who has always been eyeing the Six Cities, is also a big problem for Xiliang.
I knew that this was Yin Lan's strategy, he just wanted me to return to Xiliang to succeed the monarch, and then make An Mocheng the target of public criticism. Then the six cities fought each other, and the dynasty army reaped the benefits. In this way, within a few years, the six cities will be able to return to the dynasty without a single soldier.
But I know that Anmocheng is the center of Xiliang, not only connecting the five cities, but also the only way for Xiliang to enter the Central Plains.
Moreover, Anmo City extends in all directions, and if you enter, you can directly attack the imperial city and control the Central Plains; if you retreat, you can hold back the five cities and block Xiliang. It's the best place to use it, and it's not something that the idle can control.
So I readily agreed to Yin Lan's request, and with the help of the Wang Dynasty's army, I successfully succeeded to the throne and became the monarch of Xiliang.
And my action obviously angered the other five cities, and they began to unite against me, but how could this group of fish and turtles be my opponent?
However, as I gradually unified Xiliang, the more Wang Chaojun felt more pressure on me.
During this period, Yin Lan asked me again for conditions, but I flatly refused. Yin Lan was furious, and then ordered Lu Zhiqiu to move westward. At that time, the dynasty army was more than 200,000, and although our army was inferior in numbers, I fought with Lu Zhiqiu several times and did not taste defeat. In the end, he trapped the tiger of the yellow sand in Xiaolangzhou, and killed him with his own hands. Since then, I have become famous all over the world, and I have been named the god of war by the world.
And my only regret is that I didn't fight Su Qiji, he was sick and died on the way back from the victory of Nanqiu Jiuli, which can be described as a jealous talent. I felt sorry for him, but now it's okay for me to meet you again. ”
Mo Yiyue's eyes slowly raised, and after exhaling deeply, the corners of her mouth showed a smile of self-reproach: "The grain cart of the grass spirit clan was hijacked by you, right? And then you asked Bi An to take back the grain cart, so as to create a misunderstanding between the human race and the grass spirit clan, and even a misunderstanding between us and King Ning!"
"Yes, I did that. "Baili nodded a little, and there was no concealment at all.
"But it seems to work pretty well, otherwise you wouldn't have killed yourself here. Presumably you have also seen Yi Xiao's face clearly, he is narrow-minded and can't tolerate things, he is so happy and self-serving, you have only a dead end if you follow him. The old man is the most important hero in his life, and you are young and promising, and you are very resourceful, which I admire. That's why I refused to kill you again and again. I don't want to see you cast your pearl in vain. ”
Mo Yiyue turned her head when she heard this, her eyebrows were as solemn as the moonlight, and she was silent for a long time before she replied: "My predecessors don't want to see me in the dark, do you want to see me abandon the bright and dark? My personal future is not worth mentioning at all compared with the future of the entire Great Wilderness." All I seek is inner peace, and as long as I act worthy of my friends, relatives, and justice, then I have no regrets. ”
"Do you still want to reject me? You know, no one can refuse me twice!" Baili was stunned with a thunder slash in his hand, and his eyes were more unwilling and regretful than anger.
Seeing this, Mo Yiyue smiled and arched her hands, squinting her eyes to make people feel warm by the breeze.
"Senior, thank you for teaching me how to persevere and cherish. However, when you and I meet on the battlefield in the future, I will still not show mercy, because behind me is justice, justice, and the common people in the world. So saying, he jumped down, his robe was blown by the strong wind, but the man was like a kite, with his arms outstretched, and slowly drifted down the cliff.
——
Mu Yuncheng, who had searched for Mo Yiyue several times to no avail, returned to the camp in frustration, and when he passed by King Ning's tent, he saw that there were many people inside and the lights were bright. It seems that they are discussing the military situation.
Mu Yuncheng opened the curtain and saw that Yi Xiao was discussing with a group of staff officers how to divide the troops to capture Kurong Mountain as quickly as possible, and immediately secretly said that it was not good. This Kurong Mountain is the holy land of the Grass Spirit Clan, could it be that King Ning really wants to start a war with the Grass Clan first?
"You're just in time, I'm just about to send someone to inform you. Yi Xiao saw that it was Mu Yuncheng who came in, and a friendly smile appeared on his face.
Mu Yuncheng took half a step back, deliberately avoiding King Ning, and said in extreme disappointment: "I thought you were just talking for a while, but I didn't expect you to really abandon the common people in danger and ignore it." ”
Yi Xiao's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he looked at Mu Yuncheng's gaze with a slight puzzlement: "How can I abandon the common people in danger and ignore it? The grass spirit clan is entrenched behind, if I abandon our army and form an alliance with the Xinghai Sect, it will definitely become a big trouble for our army." ”
Mu Yuncheng shook his head: "Whether the grass spirit is an enemy or a friend is all in the mind of King Ning, and what the Xinghai Sect wants to see most is that our army and the grass spirit are in the same room, so they can watch the fire from the other side and reap the benefits of the fisherman." Now that Yi Yue has left us, do you want to force more people away?"
"What, Mr. Mo is gone?" Yi Xiao was also slightly surprised when he heard this, but Mu Yuncheng didn't know if he was pretending to be surprised, or if it was sincere.
"Do you know why he left?" Mu Yuncheng asked with red circles in his eyes and a light bite on his lower lip.
Yi Xiao shook his head, only to see Mu Yuncheng glance away, and said abruptly: "Because of your sentence 'If you are not of my race, your heart will be different!'"
"This ......" Yi Xiao was also very aggrieved when he heard it, why did his words stimulate Mo Yiyue?
"He is a dragon clan of the East China Sea, not a human race. Mu Yuncheng closed his eyes and sniffed, more like swallowing a tear in his throat.
"Ah! Yi Xiao was quite shocked by this, he really had never heard anyone say that Mo Yiyue was not a human race, and he didn't want to provoke Mo Yiyue like this.
Up to now, Mu Yuncheng actually didn't mean to blame Yi Xiao, as the so-called ignorant is not guilty, he is indeed an unintentional mistake. But he must stop King Ning from sending troops to Kurong Mountain today.
"Therefore, please also ask King Ning to take back his order, no matter what, our army must not start a war with the grass spirit. ”
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the tent.
"No, King Ning must go to war with the Grass Clan this time!" After the words fell, it was Mo Yiyue who walked in from outside the tent.
"Yi Yue!" Mu Yuncheng was surprised and delighted, but when he saw Mo Yiyue say such a thing, he suddenly became puzzled. Is this person really Yi Yue? How could he say such a thing, shouldn't he be controlled by people like Xiaoxiao!
