Volume 5 [Blood Moon Demon Sorrow] 387: A clever plan to move flowers and trees
The next day, Xiao Sheng led his troops to Canglan, where he did not come out and threatened to attack Tianya Wanghai Pavilion. Deliberately let the news spread to Shengjie Mountain. When Xiahou Yan learned of the urgency of the situation, he immediately sent the head of the Xueyu faction and the big boss of Tongtai Town to Canglan overnight to fight against the Xiao Jiajun who was condensing incense.
Tang Juan saw that Xiahou Yan sent troops to Canglan, and mistakenly thought that the plan to attack the east and the west had succeeded. Quickly dispatched troops to besiege Shengjie Mountain. Mei Sanniang remembered that Tang Juan killed 200,000 troops in Mobei in the Battle of Zunwumen. So he took the initiative to ask for a battle and led the Black Bat General, Dan Mozi, Li Baomu and other manpower to resist Don Juan. In the end, he defeated Tang Juan with the steep advantage of Shengjie Mountain, and put Tang Juan in the prison behind the Sanshan Palace.
Condensing Xiang didn't expect that Xiahou Yan had so many people under him who could fight well. After falling short, he could only retreat and order Xiao Sheng to take the vicissitudes. After experiencing a bloody storm, Tianya Wanghai Pavilion fell into the hands of Xiao Sheng. Less than two days after Xiao Sheng occupied Tianya Wanghai Pavilion, he received a secret letter from Condensing Incense: "Don Juan is defeated, go to the rescue quickly." β
Xiao Sheng won the order, and he didn't have time to rest. Immediately reorganize the troops, and the next day send troops to attack Shengjie Mountain for the second time to rescue Don Juan. Xiahou Yan experienced the previous battle with Don Juan, and in less than three days, Xiao Sheng's second attack was ushered in. That is, the presiding officers of the two temples of Dalan and Gu Sin led troops to resist Xiao Sheng's encirclement and suppression. The two sides are evenly matched. After three days of hard fighting, both sides were defeated.
Xiahou Yan was forced to use Don Juan to threaten Xiao Sheng to withdraw his troops. Under Xiao Sheng's instructions, Condensation Incense finally made a concession. The front foot let Xiao Sheng withdraw the army, and the back foot issued an edict, so that the new official took office Guangsui Admiral (Chen Gongmian) led the troops to exterminate Shengjie Mountain.
Chen Gongmian received the holy decree and knew that it was promulgated by Prime Minister Leng Cheng. So, in the first time, the content was delivered to Changsheng Mountain. After discussing with all the sisters, Dao Meimei agreed that this was the perfect time to recapture Shengjie Mountain.
Xingyun said: "Since Condensing Incense has already believed in Chen Gongmian and asked him to send troops to attack Shengjie Mountain. Then we might as well do what we plan and act according to the decree of the condensing incense. Once successful, Shengjie Mountain will inevitably return to our hands. Condensation incense never imagined that we would use Chen Gongmian to move flowers and trees. β
Dao Meimei worried: "Then once we recapture Shengjie Mountain, will Chen Gongmian be in danger?"
"Of course! Condensation Xiang didn't know that Chen Gongmian was our person. Once she discovers that Chen Gongmian is secretly colluding with us, she will definitely issue an order to remove Chen Gongmian from his position as the commander of Guangsui and make every effort to arrest him. So we need to protect Chen Gongmian's safety. So, I have a plan!"
The crowd asked, "What is the plan?"
"Condensing Incense sent Xiao Sheng to attack Shengjie Mountain for the second time, but failed! She will definitely let Xiao Sheng recruit troops and horses in various places to enrich the army. Therefore, this is the time when Canglan's defense is at its weakest. We might as well take this opportunity to lead the 100,000 soldiers on Bengbu Island to attack Canglan. Once the vicissitudes are successful, the next step will be to take Guangning and Suining. At that time, we will be able to connect Canglan, Guangning, Suining, Changsheng Mountain, Shengjie Mountain, and even Banya Mountain. Divide Daming into two, and then take Long San to ....... β
Without waiting for Nebula to finish speaking, Dao Meimei had already understood Nebula's intentions. He strongly agreed: "Yes! Next, as long as we take Fanzhu, we can occupy half of the country." At that time, we can set aside the condensation incense, let her guard the empty court and field in Daming Palace, and make her spring and autumn dreams!"
Xingyun continued: "Not only that, but we have the emperor as the will of the people, and we are the righteous teacher of the Ming Dynasty. Although the condensation incense has the jade seal in hand, the people will still support us. Moreover, we still have the support of the elders of the Cirrus Cloud Cave Pang in Qingmang Mountain, and Qingyun Nunnery is a Dharma temple that maintains the queen, so everything is only subject to the queen's orders. With these public opinion bases, sooner or later we will take back that half of the country. Therefore, Canglan, Fanzhu, Guangzhou, and Sui provinces, we are determined to win, and we cannot afford to lose. β
Xian'er volunteered: "Then leave this matter to me and Zimo! Let's go to Bengbu Island and lead 100,000 soldiers to fight into the Tianya Wanghai Pavilion and take over Canglan." After that, he went west to Guangzhou and Sui provinces to ensure the safety of Chen Gongmian. β
Xingyun agreed, and said to Damuti and Lu Feiyan: "Since Xian'er and Zimo are willing to attack Canglan, then the two of you will go to Shengjie Mountain! This matter is related to Chen Gongmian's life and safety, and you must not let Condensing Xiang know your identity in advance. And my third sister and I tried to find a way to rescue the emperor. β
So, under the planning of Baili Xingyun, the sisters were divided into three groups: a group of Black Dragon Legions led by Damuti and Lu Feiyan, disguised as ordinary soldiers, mixed in the military camp of Admiral Guangsui, waiting for an opportunity, and the other group led by Xian'er and Bai Zimo to lead the soldiers on Bengbu Island to attack Canglan. The third batch was implemented by Xingyun and Dao Meimei. β
The next day, Chen Gongmian followed the instructions of the Queen of the Sword to revise the table and write to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Let Prime Minister Leng send troops to gather at the shepherd slope near Shengjie Mountain, so that they can rush to help at any time.
Condensation Xiang thought for a moment: "Tang Juan and Xiao Sheng failed to take Shengjie Mountain twice, and Chen Gongmian obviously did not have the confidence to succeed in one fell swoop. Therefore, his request is reasonable. Now, the vicissitudes are in my hands, and Fanzhu, the Western Regions, and Mobei are all under my control. As long as I win Shengjie Mountain, then I will have no worries, and Daming will definitely fall into my hands. Although there are few soldiers now, you might as well fight to the death for the Ming Dynasty. If I win, the world will belong to me, and losing will not hinder my way to the championship. So Yun Yue ordered Xiao Sheng to fully cooperate with Chen Gongmian to encircle and suppress Shengjie Mountain.
Chen Gongmian successfully won the trust of Condensation Incense, and took the 30,000 elite soldiers led by Xiao Sheng, and let them hide in the Shepherd Slope, ready to rush to the aid at any time.
In late May of that year, Chen Gongmian was 'ordered' to send troops and led the Guangsui army with a total of more than 60,000 people to attack Shengjie Mountain. Xiahou Yan didn't expect that Condensing Incense would attack three times in a row within a month! When Tang suddenly responded to the enemy, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Shengjie Mountain is really an eventful placeββ Tara, how many available troops does the Moyan tribe have now?"
"If you go back to the Demon Lord, you will go to the old, weak, and disabled, and there are less than 50,000 soldiers who can fight!"
When Xia Houyan heard this, the strength of the two sides was not much different. So he ordered the presiding officers of the two temples of Dalan and Gusin to take command again and go down the mountain to meet the enemy.
Abbot Da Lan said, "Demon Lord, this is our only 50,000 disciples left. If we are wiped out this time, we will lose everything!"
Tara said in the side, "What do you mean, are you afraid, or are you trying to persuade us to escape?" Because she knew that she and Xiahou Yan had nowhere to go. In addition to sticking to Shengjie Mountain, there is no other way to follow. So he used Da Lan's words to try to wake up Xiahou Yan.
And Xiahou Yan also knew that once Shengjie Mountain was lost, he and Tara would return to the starting point and become alone. Therefore, he put pressure on the host of Dalan: "You must go all out, this time you are only allowed to win, not defeated! If you lose, you don't have to come back to see me!"
Although the two hosts, Da Lan and Gu Sin, were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to contradict it. They also knew that they had been tied to Xiahou Yan's chariot and could not turn back. can only reluctantly lead the troops down the mountain to fight.
Xiahou Yan felt that it was not a way to go on like this, even if he was lucky enough to survive this crisis, but Condensation Incense had already come three times, and there would be a fourth encirclement and suppression. If she did it again, she would be on her own. Instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to take the initiative. So he said: "The condensation incense is simply endless! If this woman does not get rid of it, her hatred will not be eliminated!"
Tara heard what Xiahou Yan meant, so she borrowed the wind to rudder and said: "Demon Lord, then we might as well do nothing! With the Demon Lord's ability, isn't it easy to kill her?"
Xiahou Yan also had this intention, so he took the case: "Okay! I'll go and tear up the thief!" After that, he turned into a cloud of black smoke and flew out of the ...... of the Three Senses Hall.
Xiahou Yan's departure happened to give Damuti and Lu Feiyan an excellent opportunity to seize Shengjie Mountain. Without Xiahou Yan, a strong opponent, the Moyan tribe was left with only a group of rabble. So in one go, he led the army of black dragons to the top of the mountain like a bulldozer.
According to Damuti's instructions, Chen Gongmian captured all the 30,000 elite soldiers gathered in Xiao Shengtun at Muyangpo. Xiao Sheng never dreamed that Chen Gongmian would actually defect, and he didn't expect that it was not the Guangsui soldiers led by Chen Gongmian who attacked Shengjie Mountain, but a group of mysterious fighters disguised as Sanshanmen.
In anger, Xiao Sheng scolded Chen Gongmian: "Chen Gongmian, you are so bold, you dare to deceive the prime minister! The prime minister will definitely destroy your nine clans if he knows about it!"
However, Chen Gongmian was not moved by his cold words, after all, he was a sage who had read poetry and books, and he always knew what he should do!
Condensation incense was restless in the Prime Minister's Mansion, pinching his fingers from time to time to calculate the time, expecting Xiao Sheng to bring news of victory. But the news of the victory did not come, but a cloud of black smoke came. The black smoke turned into Xiahou Yan and suddenly appeared in front of Condensing Incense, so startled that Condensing Xiang hurriedly retreated a few steps: "Xiahou Yan?ββ is it your ......?"
Xiahou Yan said with a gloomy face: "I really didn't expect that back then, I and the King of the Underworld relied so much on you, and we also obeyed your arrangement to participate in the Demon Sealing Ceremony. Now, you've become my worst enemy. A mortal female stream, want to fight with me, today I will let you know how powerful my Xiahou Demon Lord is!" With that, he quickly threw out his cloak, and the cloak spun out, turning into a smoke array composed of many black dots, covering the sky above the condensation incense like a net.
Condensing incense used Yu Wenchi's divine power, and a fire palm pushed it towards Xiahou Yan's chest, and escaped from the smoke array.
Xiahou Yan released Taiyi Tiangang, a body of Gang Qi to protect his body, and with a 'bang', the condensation incense shook out two feet, and fell on the Luohan couch. And with a bang, he flew into the air, waved his arm, and slashed at the key point of the condensation incense with a palm.
Although Condensing Incense can use Yu Wenchi's divine power, her moves are too low-energy. Knowing that he could not escape the clutches of Xiahou Yan, in despair, he buried his head on the pillow of Luohan's couch.
It was too late to say that it was too fast, and at the moment of desperation of the condensation incense, a crisp sound was suddenly heard.
'-Ding!'
A tungsten steel knife blocked Condensation Xiang's head, dissolving Xiahou Yan's moves.
Xiahou Yan's hand almost touched the blade, and he quickly retracted two and then fell to the ground, looking at it fixedly. A long-lost man, holding a knife case in one hand and a slender steel knife in the other, looked up at his .......
Condensation Xiang hurriedly grabbed Wu Zhe's shirt and hid behind Wu Zhe in panic: "Xianggong, help me kill him!"
Xiahou Yan looked up to the sky and laughed: "Ahahaha, who should I be! It turns out that you are the little white face who eats soft rice again." - Wu Zhe? I haven't seen you for a long time, you are good at what you can do, and you can actually stand up to my Taiyi Tiangang?"
Wu Zhe has experienced so many days of silence, and he has also figured out a lot of truths. If he had heard others count him like this before, he would have expressed his anger. Age, however, is a catalyst that changes temper from irritable to forbearance, turning a rebellious prodigal son into a calm monk.
He smiled slightly, and said to Xiahou Yan: "Xiahou Yan, I don't care about 'Taiyi Bayi'! I don't want to quarrel with you, get out quickly." As long as I'm here, you don't want to touch my lady at all!"
