Chapter 160: The ambush army has been here for a long time
The military camp stationed in the north was originally established to balance the Shatuo state, but in March, the Shatuo army attacked Suzhou along the way through Tianmen City and Yanzhou, and the military camp stationed in the north did not send a single soldier and a horse! What is strange is that after a month and a half, Zhao Qianming has not received the edict of the imperial court for a long time, and the more this happens, the more panicked he becomes, "The emperor will neither come to demote me nor reduce my salary, so naturally he wants to take my life!"
He was a general of the Quartet with an army of 50,000 in his hands, so how could he sit back and wait to be killed? At this time, the Shatuo State and the Turkic State successively sent people to lobby him, and both of them offered extremely favorable conditions. One evil invades each other, and two benefits are tempted, and it is not difficult to make a choice. The only thing that made it difficult for him was that both sides wanted him to show sincerity in order to cut off his way back to China one day.
"Damn, it's not a fuel-efficient lamp! I, Zhao Qianming, am not an ungrateful person, if you hadn't pushed me into a hurry, how could I have ever thought of killing you? Now I have no way out, and I can't blame Lao Tzu!" Zhao Qianming thought viciously. He had already accepted Azig, and led his army to Tianmen City before the seventh day of the sixth month, where he besieged and killed the Xia Mu Dynasty, and then returned to Shatuo. Dahua wants to kill him, and he doesn't want to die. He didn't want to die, so he had to go to the enemy for refuge.
"Hehe, I, Zhao Qianming, have become the first rebel general in Dahua in a hundred years!" he stood outside the tent camp, looking at the banner of "General in the North" fluttering in the wind, and laughed at himself angrily. He hated Xia Muchao, Xia Muyan, Duanmuyu, and Azig, but he hated himself even more.
... ...
The sixth day of the sixth month of June finally arrived, but the presiding officer of the conference was not King Yun, but King Duan, and the place was not Sikong Mansion, but Duan Wang's Mansion.
On the rivers and lakes, there was originally a martial arts alliance leader, however, since the death of the dust Zen master in the Liuturbid Temple fifty-seven years ago, there has been no martial arts league. In recent years, there has never been a person on the rivers and lakes who can convince the heads of various major sects in terms of prestige, prestige, martial arts, and resourcefulness.
Yi Qilin, Xu Xiaoyi, Zhang Suiguang, Yun Xiaomeng and other sixteen sect principals sat separately, and Lao Duanwang was sitting on the main seat, chuckling and saying to everyone: "Friends on the rivers and lakes, please drink tea first!"
Everyone took a cup of tea according to their words, and for a while, there was a crisp sound of porcelain hitting in the hall from time to time.
The tea has been drunk, and everyone has been sitting for a long time, but they have never seen the old duanwang speak.
"His Royal Highness King Duan, a few months ago, the gangsters of the Turkic country came to the capital to do evil, and killed many ministers of my Dahua. I am called here today, hoping to share the difficulties of the imperial court. Yi Qilin got up from his seat and bowed down to ask.
King Duan held the teacup in his left hand and the lid of the cup in his right hand, and suddenly laughed and said: "Master Yi has such a heart to serve the country, this king is very pleased!
"Oh?" everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
"Summoning you here is just a trick. The people who really went to assassinate the relatives of the Emperor of the Turkic Kingdom had already arrived in Yinyang City!" King Duan said with a cold face.
"It turns out that summoning the masters of the rivers and lakes into the capital is just a cover made by the emperor!" Zhang Suiguang was shocked in his head and couldn't help but think.
... ...
Yinyang City is the richest place in the Turkic country, although it is not comparable to the capital city of Dahua, but it can be regarded as one after another.
A white-haired and green-clothed Taoist sat on the desk by the door, put down the black long sword in his hand, and smiled at the guy running to the side: "Xiao Er, give me a bowl of noodle broth!"
"Okay! Dao Ye wait a moment!" Xiao Er nodded, and walked towards the back hall happily.
Qing Xuan looked at the crowd outside the store, and always had a faint smile on his face. "It's good to be able to live freely!"
Xiao Er came out of the back hall and shouted from afar: "Hey, Daoye, your broth noodles are coming!" After a few broken steps, he came to Qingxuan's table, put down the boss's bowl of hot noodle soup, rubbed his palms and smiled: "Your broth noodles, Daoye, please use it slowly!"
"Are you satisfied with your current life?" asked Qing Xuan.
"Drink, how can you be dissatisfied? The world is calm, the years are rich, and the livelihood is acceptable, what else can you be dissatisfied?" Xiao Er replied, always smiling.
"Do you know that your ancestors were originally in Dahua, do you still want to go back?" Qing Xuan asked again.
Xiao Er shook his head, swallowed his saliva, and sighed: "Well, how many years have you been? What are you going to do when you go back? Isn't it good to go back to the Turkic country, why do you want to go back? What's more, it's the land of Dahua, how can you let us go back." Hey, what's the difference?
"Thank you, little two!" Qing Xuan thanked from the bottom of his heart. He was the hundredth person Qing Xuan asked, and his answer was the same as the other ninety-five.
After eating a bowl of noodles, Qing Xuan paid the bill and walked out of the "Pingtai Noodle Restaurant" with a sword, and disappeared into the vast sea of people...
... ...
At the foot of Pingshan Mountain, hundreds of people in black gathered together.
"The horses are all set?" Chu Zhong asked in a low voice.
"Back to Master Chu, our people have found a secret place, the horses are all fenced, and there are ten people guarding it, there is no problem!" replied a masked man in black.
"Okay, find a secluded place and rest first. Chu Zhong ordered.
"Master Chu, aren't you going up the mountain? The people from King Yun's Mansion, the Salt Gang and the Nine Palaces went up two hours ago. The masked man in black asked, leaning over with his hand. These hundreds of people are the dead soldiers of Baiweitang, and they came in two batches, and the latter group was brought by Chu Zhong. A group of people who came earlier have been monitoring the wind and grass up and down the mountain, and naturally the people who know King Yun went up the mountain early in the morning.
"Hehe, we don't have to go to the mountains for the time being, we are not here to kill. Chu Zhong said with a smile, "You can take people to put more roadblocks on the way up the mountain, we won't go, but we can't let the people of the Divine Outpost Camp go up to the bad things!" In order to stop the Shenshao Camp from Shangping Plain, they spent a lot of effort to put obstacles behind them, cut bridges, and pushed stones to block roads.
He came here with hundreds of people to reap the profits, not to fight hard, and not to allow others to surprise the catch.
"Subordinates understand!" The masked man in black received his instructions, clenched his fists and retreated, leading more than a hundred people into the forest.
... ...
Pazhou is a sparsely populated and rugged state in the northwest of Pinan, but it is the only way to Shengjun. Xia Muyang and his party of 300 and 2 people rode all good horses, and they had already run nearly 300 miles in just two hours. However, when he arrived in the territory of Pazhou, the footsteps had to slow down, just because the road was bumpy and narrow, and the horses were unstable and did not dare to go fast.
"Huh!" Tang Su was at the front, reined in his horse, turned his head and said to Xia Muyang behind him: "Lord Wang, the road ahead is dangerous, there are mountains on one side and cliffs on the other, so my subordinates will explore first?"
Xia Muyang looked at the narrow path hundreds of zhang long in front of him, his face also showed hesitation, and said softly to Tang Su: "Be careful!"
Tang Su answered "yes" and led dozens of people over.
... ...
"My lord, someone's coming!"
"Let it go, it's just a way out, the big dish is behind!"
... ...
"Kick, kick, kick!" Tang Su grabbed the reins of the horse in front of Xia Muyang and reported: "Lord Wang, there is nothing unusual about the road ahead. ”
Seeing that he had returned safely, Xia Muyang breathed a sigh of relief and yelled: "Go!"
"Kick... "Three hundred and two rode briskly towards this narrow path, and the sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground resounded through the valley, as if to see someone off.
