Chapter 339: City Guard (Fourth Watch)
This innocent old man is like a person who doesn't know martial arts.
When others saw it, they would never think it was a master, they just thought it was an ordinary old man.
Li Chengkong looked at him with a solemn expression.
The old man smiled and nodded at him, then walked straight past them and continued on his way, his steps light and dashing, and soon he turned into an alley and disappeared.
"Master?" Yuan Ziyan frowned and said, "There are actually two great masters in Zhennan City, and they are really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!"
She never expected that there would be two great grandmasters in this remote and desolate Zhennan City, and there were only three great grandmasters in Jingshi!
This is very abnormal, and I can't help but say: "Master, this is not quite right, is it the emperor's ......?"
Li Chengkong shook his head: "Listen to the great grandmaster of the Chao Sword Pavilion. ”
"Two Great Grandmasters?" Yuan Ziyan was surprised.
Li Chengkong nodded slowly.
"Master, then we have offended a great sect, I'm afraid this Chaojian Pavilion is not easy to provoke. Yuan Zi flute.
There are two great grandmasters, they must be top sects like Qingwei Mountain, once they completely make enemies, there will be endless trouble.
If you kill a great grandmaster, you will have a complete revenge.
Listening to the tide sword pavilion, I don't know how to retaliate.
Li Chengkong stared at the direction in which the old man disappeared.
Is this old man because he sees that he and Yuan Ziyan are both great grandmasters, and he is not sure of victory, so he doesn't do it?
Nine times out of ten, this is true.
In this way, it is not in vain to help Yuan Ziyan break through to the realm of the Great Grandmaster.
No matter how powerful she is, at least the deterrence is enough.
Seeing that Li Chengkong didn't move for a long time, Yuan Ziyan couldn't help but say, "Master, we really don't want to go in?"
Li Chengkong shook his head: "You go back to Qingwei Mountain, you Qingwei Mountain should have a great master martial arts." ”
"Yes. ”
——
In the early morning, Huo Yuting came to the outside of Dugu Shuming's wooden house and smiled at Xiao Miaoxue and Xiao Meiying, who were standing outside the house.
Xiao Miaoxue said: "Shizi, what's the matter?"
"Ask the princess when she will leave. ”
The princess said she would leave immediately. ”
"Oh. Huo Yuting stood outside and had no intention of leaving.
Xiao Miaoxue said: "What else is the matter with the son?"
"I just want to tell the princess in person. ”
"The princess still has guests. ”
"Which one?"
"Miss Lu. ”
As he was talking, Lu Qingluan came out of the curtain, wearing a lake-green shirt, with a smile on his charming jade face, shining brightly.
Huo Yuting was illuminated by her appearance, and he was in a trance for a while.
Lu Qingluan glanced at him, the lotus steps did not stop, and after flashing twice, he disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint fragrance, which made Huo Yuting feel a little melancholy inexplicably.
Dugu Shuming came out of the curtain and saw Huo Yuting: "What is the prince still doing here, ready to go!"
"Princess, we need to rush to Zhennan City as soon as possible?"
"Yes. ”
"But when we get to Zhennan City, what can we do?" Huo Yuting frowned and said, "You won't take these guards to attack the city, right?"
"Li Daoyuan has passed, there will always be a way. ”
"I know that Lord Li's martial arts are unfathomable, but no matter how strong his martial arts are, it is impossible for him to win a city with just one person, right?"
"There will be a way. ”
"It seems that the princess has deep confidence in Lord Li. ”
He inexplicably felt that it was not a taste.
The princess trusts this Li Daoyuan too much, right?
Li Daoyuan is a great master, but he is only strong in martial arts, but his wisdom may not be gone, otherwise, he would not have let the Xianwang Mansion fall into such a field.
If he really wants to be extremely wise, he should save the Xianwang Mansion from fire and water, and even make himself the crown prince.
But he was good, not only did he fail to save the Xian Wangfu, but instead pushed the Xian Wangfu into the fire pit.
was exiled to Zhennan City, and the responsibility lies with Li Daoyuan!
It was because he overthrew King Long and angered the imperial grandfather that he was exiled here by the imperial grandfather!
"Shizi, please go back if you have nothing to do, let's go!" Dugu Shuming waved his jade hand, too lazy to speak.
"Okay!" Huo Yuting clenched his fists and turned to leave.
Xiao Miaoxue smiled and said, "Princess, this life is a little too enthusiastic, right?"
Xiao Meiying said: "Is it because of the grace of saving lives?"
Xiao Miaoxue said with a smile: "It's still a person who knows how to repay his kindness, not bad, but he doesn't seem to be so grateful to Master Li." ”
Dugu Shuming frowned and glanced at her.
Xiao Miaoxue hurriedly closed her mouth: "Then princess, let's go." ”
"Let's go. ”
A group of men and horses slowly left the valley and continued southward, this time at a faster pace until the evening.
In the days that followed, they all maintained a high speed, and the speed of advance suddenly accelerated several times.
During this period, there were several attempts to commit crimes, but they were all repelled by the guards, and the further south they went, the more rampant the thieves became.
Dugu Shuming saw that Zhang Tianning was already weak, and the guards began to mess up, so he personally commanded the battle.
The last time she was in Tiexiguan, although Li Chengkong was on her side, it was not all Li Chengkong who was responsible.
She also personally went to the battlefield to direct the battle, and Li Chengkong reminded her at a critical time and revised her orders.
If her order is not wrong, Li Chengkong will follow the order, if there is a mistake, point it out, and point out where it went wrong, why it went wrong, and how to avoid it next time.
This kind of hand-to-hand teaching has made Dugu Shuming's command ability improve by leaps and bounds, far better than ordinary generals.
At this time, he personally commanded the guards, such as killing chickens with a knife, skillful and precise, which made Zhang Tianning breathtaking.
He couldn't help but sigh in Huo Yuting's carriage: "Lord, our princess is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go, she is so powerful, I never expected to be so good at commanding on the battlefield!"
Huo Yuting was sitting cross-legged on the cushion, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned: "The princess is indeed powerful, heroic and compelling." ”
"It's a pity that the princess is a woman, if it is a man, she will definitely be able to win the name of an invincible general. ”
"I only complain that we have no soldiers available, and no matter how powerful the princess is, she can't show it, but it's a pity. ”
"Lord Wang, in fact, we have soldiers. ”
"Uh-huh——?"
"The city guards in Zhennan City, although there are not many, but after all, they are also our army!"
In the entire southern border, there is only this army of soldiers and horses, although the combat strength is worrying, but it is better than the number of people.
"Zhennan City Guards, if they can listen to me...... What's more, these city guards are all veterans and can't be counted on. ”
As the prince of the Xianwang Mansion, he is not so unlearned, at least he knows that the city guards in the south are divided into two parts.
Some of them were sinners, who were sent by the imperial court to serve in the southern border.
Some are after the sinners.
They are the offspring of sinners, and they will also serve in the army, and they cannot leave the army.
The combat power of these people can be imagined.
It may be wrong to say that they don't have a good thing, but most of them are not good things and you can't be wrong.
The imperial court had an incentive policy that if you could make enough military achievements, you could break away from the city guards.
But the city guards have hardly won battles, so why should they make meritorious contributions?
Therefore, this policy has become an ornament, and the city guards have no hope, and their combat power can be imagined.
They were overwhelmed by the thirty-six holes, so as the city guards of Zhennan City, they had to look at the faces of the thirty-six holes.
When he thought of the dignified prince, but he wanted to see Nanyi's face and listen to Nanyi's mercy, he was extremely embarrassed.
What's more, now Zhennan City has been taken away!
