Chapter 1577: Discovery of the Conspiracy
Ye Li and Huo Xing looked at each other with a look of surprise, and Ye Li said, "Holy Venerable, have you sent troops?"
The White Lotus Saint Venerable nodded and said, "I have already sent 20,000 people over, and these 20,000 people have been completely wiped out by the other party!"
Ye Li's expression changed, and he said, "What do you mean, aren't the 20,000 people you sent out the opponents of the Tianshui clan!?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable's expression was already a little ugly, and he said: "Originally, the Tianshui clan did not have such a strong strength, according to our intelligence, it would be very good for them to have 10,000 troops, where could they completely destroy our 20,000 Qinglian army."
However, what we didn't expect was that the other party didn't know where to get more than 20,000 people to come.
An army of 30,000 men in total attacked us in an ambush and wiped out almost all of our 20,000 troops.
Only a small number of Qinglian soldiers escaped and told what had happened.
The people of the Tianshui clan seem to be very arrogant, so I have ordered the remaining 50,000 people of the Qinglian Army to be assembled yesterday, wanting to annihilate the other party in one fell swoop.
Now our battle with the Tianshui clan is not only for Zhuo Huo, but also for the 20,000 Qinglian troops we have died in battle. ”
When Ye Li and Huo Xing heard this, their hearts were full of uneasiness, and said, "Holy Venerable, these 50,000 people of yours are on the expedition, are you sure that they will not encounter accidents, for example, the other party has more troops!?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable also had the same uneasiness in his heart at this time, according to what Ye Li had told before, the situation of the Tang Kingdom and the Great Yuan Kingdom, the current situation of his White Lotus Kingdom was likely to have fallen into some traps.
After pondering carefully for a moment, the White Lotus Saint Venerable shouted outside, "Come and see me immediately!!
Hearing his order, a guard immediately ran out of the White Lotus Palace, and almost a quarter of an hour later, a tall middle-aged man hurriedly walked in from outside.
"Holy Venerable!"
The man knelt down and saluted the White Lotus Venerable.
"Get up, let me ask you, have there been any strange situations in my White Lotus Country recently!?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable asked.
After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, you don't ask me what I don't think, and when you ask, I really think the recent situation is a little strange."
Before the 50,000 troops of the Qinglian Army set out, the guards of more than a dozen cities were conducting actual combat exercises, saying that they were anti-bandit operations.
At the time, I wondered why so many of the city's guards were fighting bandits at the same time, but now it seems a bit strange. ”
Hearing this, the White Lotus Saint Venerable's face changed suddenly, and then after thinking about it, he immediately said, "Heart, have the people of the Burning Lamp Sect made any recent moves?"
After thinking about it, he said: "It seems that there are some moves, some of my subordinates have reported before, the Burning Lamp Cultists from all over the country have left the city, and they have all left one after another recently, and there are hundreds of people in each city, and I don't know where they went."
Because we have a close relationship with the Burning Lamp Sect, and we have never interfered much in their actions in the past, I didn't ask too much about this matter, and then I stopped it.
Holy Venerable, is there something wrong? ”
Hearing Xin's words, Ye Li and Huo Xing already knew in their hearts that these manpower that had been mobilized in a short period of time was probably prepared for the 50,000 troops of the Qinglian Army.
The White Lotus Saint Venerable's face also became very difficult to look at, and he said, "It seems that my White Lotus Kingdom will also experience the same thing as your Tang Kingdom, and the people of this World Alliance have infiltrated it."
I really didn't expect that the Burning Lamp Sect would actually stand on the side of the Tianxia Alliance, how long have they been secretly plotting, I haven't heard any rumors. ”
Speaking of the back, the White Lotus Saint Venerable's eyes were a little lost and uneasy.
Ye Li and Huo Xing were completely able to understand the changes in each other's emotions, after all, as the ruler of a country, he didn't even notice the hidden waves under his hands, this situation made him too uncomfortable.
The White Lotus Holy Venerable must have thought that he had mastered all the circumstances of the entire country at the beginning, just like Li Rushan, but when the rebellion broke out, he realized that he knew nothing about the enemy's plots.
If it weren't for Ye Li and Huo Xing to warn him, he wouldn't have noticed the current situation at all, and it shouldn't have been possible for him, the position of the White Lotus Holy Venerable, to sit for long.
Once the other party's conspiracy succeeds and he loses another 50,000 people, then the 70,000 people that the White Lotus Kingdom has lost in a row will reduce his strength to the extreme.
If there is still an army in the White Lotus country that is controlled by the other party's people, then if civil strife breaks out, it is likely that he will not have enough strength to resist it at all.
"If you have a heart, immediately mobilize the White Lotus Army for me, and I will personally conquer the Tianshui clan!!"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable spoke.
Still a little dazed, he said, "Holy Venerable, what happened!?"
The White Lotus Saint Venerable said: "The 50,000 Qinglian Army is in danger, the forces you just mentioned have abnormal movements, and the soldiers who left are likely to have all gathered to the Tianshui Clan, and they are going to plot against the Qinglian Army."
The military strength that the other party is now gathering should be about 70,000 people, and if the Qinglian Army is ambushed, it is likely that most of the 50,000 people will be annihilated. ”
Hearing this, his expression became extremely shocked, and he said, "What...... How so!?"
"Heart, don't ask so much, you immediately mobilize the White Lotus Army, I want to go out immediately, I must save the Qinglian Army before it is plotted by the other party!!"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable's expression was extremely serious.
When he heard this, he didn't dare to say anything, so he hurriedly turned around and ran out of the White Lotus Palace, and was ordered to mobilize the White Lotus Army.
"Holy Venerable, are you only sending 30,000 people?"
Ye Li asked.
"Enough, the White Lotus Army is the strongest legion in my White Lotus Country, it may not be as powerful as your Xuanwu Army, but it is definitely stronger than your Zhenzhong Army.
These 30,000 people should be able to snuff out the enemy's conspiracy.
Moreover, my 30,000 people may not need to fight to kill the other party, after all, the other side has the guards of many of my cities.
Even if I don't personally control these armies, there are probably many of the soldiers who are loyal to me.
As long as I appear on the battlefield, these people may not be willing to listen to the leader's dispatch and then attack the Qinglian Army. ”
The White Lotus Holy Venerable spoke.
Ye Li and Huo Xing nodded when they heard this, they believed that the White Lotus Holy Venerable had his own sense of proportion in his heart.
The White Lotus Saint Venerable glanced at the two of them and said, "Two, thanks to your warnings this time, I discovered the conspiracy in advance.
Please stay in my White Lotus City for a few more days, and I will come back as soon as I crush the enemy's plot, and then we will discuss the relevant plan for joining forces against the enemy!!"
Hearing the words of the White Lotus Holy Venerable, Ye Li and Huo Xing glanced at each other, and then nodded, the current situation has exceeded their expectations, but it is finally a good thing.
If they hadn't found out about this, and by a few days later, all 50,000 people under the White Lotus Holy Venerable had died, then it would be too late for them to say anything.
