Chapter 900: Signs of Southward Departure
"Did you really break through the 'Ninth Layer'?" Tong Jiuyang asked in a trembling voice.
He and Min Yijiang didn't think that Huang Xiao had broken through the 'ninth level' just now, because this 'ninth level' 'Heavenly Demon Skill' was judged from the previous 'Heavenly Demon Sect Masters', that is, the founder was only successful, so even if Huang Xiao's qualifications were against the sky, you dare to say that he was more outstanding than other previous sect masters?
So when they saw Huang Xiao for the first time just now, they just thought that Huang Xiao's skills had greatly improved, after all, Huang Xiao's age was so young, and it was not surprising that he had not seen him for seven years. This made it difficult for them to think that Huang Xiao had broken through the 'ninth level', and in this regard, the two of them were not as direct as Hong Yi. Because Hong Yi didn't think about it so much, he felt that Huang Xiao's skills had improved so much, it should be that he had broken through the 'ninth level'.
They pondered too much, and they always felt that no one could break through this 'ninth layer', even if it was Huang Xiao, it was unlikely.
But the faint aura that Huang Xiao exuded just now made him know that they were very wrong. Sometimes, thinking too much is not necessarily right, not necessarily a good thing.
"Fluke. Huang Xiao grinned.
Tong Jiuyang and Min Yijiang were both stunned, all of this was completely beyond their imagination.
After being stunned for a while, Tong Jiuyang suddenly stood up from the chair, flashed, and came to Huang Xiao, staring at Huang Xiao tightly and said, "Really?"
"Now that I'm going to lie to you?" Huang Xiao smiled slightly.
Tong Jiuyang noticed his gaffe, he coughed lightly, and then returned to his seat.
After seeing Tong Jiuyang sit down again, Min Yijiang sighed with emotion: "Brother Tong, I think we may be really old, and we have too many concerns. ”
"Yes, it's really too much to think about?" Tong Jiuyang sighed.
Huang Xiao didn't think that the two of them were thinking too much, although some of their thoughts just now were probably a little biased, but they were also for the Great Song Dynasty, in order to deal with Wu Longfeng and the others.
How can we be careless at this juncture? There must be a sound plan. If you don't think about it too much, how can you consider all kinds of unexpected situations, and how can you guard against all kinds of conspiracies and tricks of the other party?
"Wu Longfeng is powerful, but now. We also have the capital to fight him. Huang Xiao said.
"We're finally a little relieved now. Min Yijiang said with a sigh of relief.
"Elder Sun is really unkind, he didn't even tell us about your breakthrough to the 'ninth level', which is unforgivable for us to worry for so long. Tong Jiuyang said a little depressed.
"Unforgivable?Do you still want to do with Sun Lao?haha~~" Min Yijiang was in a very good mood now, and couldn't help but laugh jokingly.
Tong Jiuyang was slightly stunned. Then he laughed out loud, his words just now were a little presumptuous, but this is just to say, in fact, it is not really dissatisfied with Sun Lao, just to vent the depression in his heart.
The laughter soon stopped, however, as an announcement came from outside.
This made Tong Jiuyang's face very unhappy, what dare to disturb at this time?
"What's the big deal again?" Min Yijiang said with a sinking face.
Zhao Yuankan shouted and came in, only to see a military general coming in outside, after he came in, he saluted Tong Jiuyang and Min Yijiang, and then saluted Zhao Yuankan.
As for Huang Xiao. He ignored it directly, he was a little surprised that there were still people here, but unfortunately he didn't know it, so naturally he didn't salute.
"General Yang, is there a big deal in the army?" asked Zhao Yuankan.
Zhao Yuankan looked at this General Yang's face a little ugly, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Your Majesty, according to the biography of the border pass, the Khitan army seems to be showing signs of mobilization again. General Yang said.
When Tong Jiuyang heard this, he frowned and said: "There have been many transfers of the Khitan army, after reaching an agreement over the years. They also did not cross the border. ”
Min Yijiang and Huang Xiao also looked at this General Yang, waiting for his answer.
Huang Xiao was still a little surprised in his heart, he believed that since General Yang had come over to mention this matter, I am afraid it would not be an ordinary transfer. What can make him feel critical can only be that the Khitan has signs of going south.
"Is it Tantra again?" Huang Xiao couldn't help but think secretly in his heart.
Over the years, Tantra can be said to have frantically planted people inside and outside the Khitan Dynasty, and the army is no exception.
Especially after faintly hooking up with 'Taixuanzong', he was even more unscrupulous.
Huang Xiao knew very well that his grandfather would never let the Khitan army go south at present, so the only possibility was that Tantra was at work.
"Nope. This time is different, the Khitan army has now gathered 100,000 people, and it is still increasing, and the last general has ordered the border pass to take defensive measures, and asked the emperor to give an order to mobilize the surrounding troops to the border pass, just in case. General Yang said.
Zhao Yuankan set his eyes on Tong Jiuyang, Min Yijiang and Huang Xiao, and he still wanted to hear the opinions of the three.
"Alas, I didn't expect to make such a big move at this critical moment, Ling Tianya shouldn't make a move at this time, I'm afraid it is still related to Tantra. Tong Jiuyang sighed.
"It should be like this, Your Majesty, now that the Khitan is fighting fiercely, this part of the army is probably under the orders of Tantra, and we have to guard against it, as General Yang said, it is more appropriate to reinforce the border passes. Min Yijiang said.
Zhao Yuankan sighed: "As soon as the army moves, I don't know how much food it has to consume, and I don't know how many people will have to die?"
"It's not necessarily the worst outcome, I'll see what the final result is, I'm afraid it will depend on the result of the battle for the 'Seven Spirit Knife' in four months. Huang Xiao smiled slightly.
"Oh?" Tong Jiuyang and the three of them all set their eyes on Huang Xiao.
"If Wulongfeng is solved at that time, then are you still afraid that those people in the Tantric Sect will jump?" Huang Xiao said.
"Reasonable, reasonable!" Tong Jiuyang said with a smile on his face, "Now the Yellow Gate Master is not the Yellow Gate Master of seven years ago, and there is also a good chance to solve Wulong Peak." ”
Speaking of this, Tong Jiuyang looked at Zhao Yuankan again and said: "However, this matter still needs to be fully prepared, the army should still move, and reinforcements still need to be reinforced." At least not now. ”
Zhao Yuankan also understood in his heart, and he said to General Yang: "General Yang, I will leave this matter to you, you command the army of the surrounding state capitals, and open the border pass within three days." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general will do his best. After General Yang said this, a trace of hesitation appeared on his face.
"What else do you have to say? Zhao Yuankan naturally noticed it.
"Actually, it's about the food and grass of the army. General Yang's words were not continued.
Zhao Yuankan's face sank, it can be said that this kind of thing has happened many times.
Not only did he encounter it, but look at the past dynasties, how many wars could have been won, but in the end they were defeated because of the grain grassland. (To be continued.) )
