Chapter 56: Shock and Awe
The reason why he told Suo Zhang about this was that Suo Xun's purpose was very clear: to gain his wife's understanding and support. After all, Suo Zhang is Zhang Yichao's daughter, and her prestige among the Zhang family is not low.
Suo Xun has been doing this, and it has been basically confirmed, otherwise, he would not have told his wife this now, but imprisoned her. Now, when the big event is launched, it is good to strengthen the morale of the wife.
Putting on his armor, Suo Xun came to the council hall.
The subordinate officials and staff members in the palace have been waiting for a lot of things, and his cronies and generals in the army, including some Guiyi Army worshippers in Guazhou, the Great Monk of the True Human Realm, have also been notified and rushed over.
Launching a mutiny and mastering the Guiyi Army is a major event that Suo Xun and his own people have planned and prepared for many years, and Shimen's action in the northwest is just to advance this action. When Suo Xun succeeded in luring Zhang Huaiding, he had already given these wings and henchmen to his wings and henchmen to rush over.
In addition to Suo Xun's own people, there are also some high-ranking people in the council hall at this moment, including one commander and one Du Yuhou, and two real people who are worshipped, and they don't have a good relationship with him. The news these people received was different from the people who came before.
As the highest leader of the Guiyi Army in Guazhou, Suo Xun has the power to let these people come from the family to discuss matters.
Suo Xun walked into the council hall, came to the main seat and sat down, and looked around everyone calmly.
In the process, his henchmen bowed their heads slightly one after another, signaling that they were ready and ready to act according to the plan. Suo Xun nodded imperceptibly, and gave the order to act at the right time.
"What is the current situation in the northwest, I don't think I need to say more, everyone knows it. The 100,000-strong army of Shimen attacked from both sides, so that the Guiyi army fell into a situation of life and death, and all of this was because of the Jiedu Envoy's suppression of Shimen. ”
Suo Xun looked at everyone, and his eyes focused on a few generals who were obviously biased towards Zhang Huaishen, "The general has already found out that the Jiedu envoy has secretly communicated with the Uighurs, and wants to lead the Mingjiao army into the two states of Sha and Gua, although under the guise of eliminating the monks of the Liberation Gate, in fact, he is collaborating with the enemy and treason, and he has already accepted the title of prince canonized by the Uighur Khan!"
As soon as these words came out, the two generals and worshippers of the Guiyi Army who finally Zhang Huaishen were all discolored.
The commander immediately asked Suo Xun: "What evidence does General Suo have to slander the envoy like this?
Before he finished his words, his expression suddenly froze, and he hurriedly dodged to the side!
He is also a real human realm, his combat power is very high, and he noticed it in time, and the other commander standing on his left suddenly slipped a magic dagger from his sleeve, and stabbed at him with concealment and speed!
He had just dodged to the right, and the sharp stabbing pain in his right waist was unbearable, and even his whole body froze, which made him look at the right side in disbelief, and the name who came with him was waiting for him.
This Du Yu Hou has always been at odds with Suo Xun, everything he does on weekdays is based on the orders of the envoys, and he has always been led by the commander to take him as a confidant, never thought that the other party would stab himself with a knife!
"Why are you?!" When the commander froze, the dagger in the hand of the general on the left had already reached his neck. But he didn't realize it, just stared at Du Yu with tears in his eyes.
Du Yuhou just smiled and didn't answer out loud, with a clear look of banter in his eyes.
Although the commander did not get an answer, he also reacted at this moment, this person is only afraid that he has already taken refuge in Suo Xun, maybe he has always been Suo Xun's person! On weekdays, he has a face that respects the Jiedu envoy everywhere, just to get close to himself, confuse himself, and get all kinds of information from the Jiedu envoy from here!
At this time, Suo Xun's unhurried voice sounded, "Everyone, Jiedu has betrayed the righteous army, and everyone will be punished, who has a different opinion?"
No longer concealing it, everyone turned to face the two worshippers, faintly surrounding them. There are five of them in the True Human Realm, and with Suo Xun, it is six True Human Realm!
The faces of the two worshippers were blue and white, the soles of their feet were cold, and the beads of sweat on their foreheads were like nets, and they couldn't move for a while. Both of them are from other major clans in Guazhou, and their identities are unusual, but they didn't expect that Suo Xun had already killed them at this moment.
Both of them know very well that as long as they say a word, their lives will be in danger immediately!
However, to ask them to admit that Zhang Huaishen was treason and colluded with the Uighurs, such a crime of reversing black and white was really difficult for their conscience to accept.
The two looked at each other, and both saw the hesitation in each other's eyes.
Why didn't they see that Suo Xun, a seemingly loyal and virtuous guy, had such bad water hidden in his stomach?
There was no trace of it before, and once the mutiny was launched, it was so violent that people had no chance to react at all!
Sure enough, he is a treacherous and cunning man!
"Two, the general doesn't have extra patience, ask you two again, do you want to lead the family, follow the general, and eliminate the traitors in the Guiyi army?" asked Suo Xun righteously.
Speaking of this, seeing that the other party was still not moving, he pretended to sigh in grief, "It seems that the two of you need to make up your mind for you." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at the commander who had a knife in his waist and was compared to his neck with a dagger, "I originally wanted you to live, but the situation is like this, if I don't borrow your head to make an example, I'm afraid it won't work." ”
As soon as the words fell, the two worshippers shouted at the same time: "Stop!"
Suo Xun ignored it, "Kill!"
The general with the dagger in his hand laughed fiercely, and the dagger in his hand was about to slash past the commanders who were glaring at him!
Poof.
Blood splattered.
Screams rang out.
Something flew sideways.
Everyone's pupils shrank, some looked weird, some were surprised, some were shocked, and some exclaimed.
It is not the head of the commander who flies.
It's a severed wrist-length hand!
The hand that still holds the dagger.
The general stared at his blood-spurting severed hand, still in a trance, as if he couldn't believe that his hand would suddenly be severed smoothly.
The people who had been staring at the two worshippers, beware of their escape, did not see clearly how this hand suddenly flew into the air.
When they heard the screams and turned back, they saw a green leaf flying straight up in their sight.
No, not a green leaf!
It's countless flying leaves!
Ten thousand leaves are like flowers, from the soles of everyone's feet suddenly whirl, sharp, strong, as soon as the Wu appeared, it was overwhelming, covering the entire field of vision!
At the same time, streams of blood flew across the country, and screams came out one after another!
Everyone present, except for the injured Commander and the two encircled worshippers, were shrouded in the whirling furious leaf curtain, and were attacked indiscriminately at the same moment!
Every green leaf is an aura flying blade, although it is small, but its lethality is amazing.
Those subordinate officials and staff members who had cultivated below the realm of real people were instantly pierced through their bodies by countless flying leaves! Each flying leaf flew with a touch of blood mist, and their bodies instantly became blood gourds, trembling, spasming, screaming, or flying, or toppling, and falling to the ground one after another!
Even if it is a real human realm, being slid through the body by a flying leaf, it will leave a bloody hole that is more than an inch deep, and the wisps of blood that burst out are splashed like ink, making the field of vision full of red for a moment!
The change came so suddenly, everyone didn't even notice it before!
The five True Realm Great Cultivators present were attacked by their opponents and were bruised all over their bodies, and they couldn't even lock the opponent's position, so they could only try to form layers of spiritual energy barriers, while looking left and right to find the existence of the other party.
The only one who noticed the appearance of an anomalous aura a little earlier was Suo Xun.
On the eve of the general's broken hand, he wanted to make a warning, but he immediately tensed. Because he suddenly felt that an extremely strong aura had locked him! Before he could jump up from the main seat, a white sword flew in through the window like a giant python out of a hole, and instantly came to his face!
At this time, there is a Manyo hurricane blowing in the field!
Suo Xun immediately let out a low snort, and without thinking, he pulled out his waist sword and slashed straight down towards Bai Lian.
When the blade came into contact with Bai Lian, Suo Xun felt as if he had slashed into a mountain torrent, and the huge anti-shock force made his mouth numb, and in an instant, his arm seemed to be unconscious, and at the same time, a stream of blood burst out of the tiger's mouth.
The opponent's cultivation and combat power are much higher than his own! Suo Xun was suddenly shocked.
Half a year ago, he had already achieved the Yang God True Human Realm, and in the entire Guiyi Army, only Zhang Huai had cultivated a little higher than him, but the other party was only in the middle of the Yang God True Human Realm, far from the late stage. And the opponent in front of him completely crushed him in terms of cultivation power, which means that he is stronger than Zhang Huaishen's combat power!
I thought that Zhang Huaishen had killed the horse pistol, but Suo Xun still had the desire to survive in his heart, after all, there were still five real people in the hall, and it may not be impossible to fight together. But now, the person who came turned out to be even more powerful than Zhang Huaishen, so it must not be Zhang Huaishen's person, which made him at a loss.
What is the origin of the other party?
Why are you suddenly attacking yourself?!
"Who are you!" Suo Xun was frightened, and changed his left hand to hold the knife to meet Bai Lian, who was rolling towards his neck!
At this moment, the situation has changed dramatically.
The commander who was stabbed in the waist saw the enemy's severed hand flying up from his eyes for the first time, as a decisive battlefield general, he was suddenly overjoyed in his heart, without any hesitation, he turned around and punched, and smashed it heavily on the neck of Du Yuhou, who gave him a knife!
Du Yu Hou and Du Commander, the official positions are two levels apart, and there is also an obvious gap between the cultivation of the two, so the commander only thought about dodging the surprise attack of the generals in front of him, and he didn't expect that the "friends" behind him would attack him, so he was premeditated by the other party.
At this moment, the other party was in shock, but he was the first to react and shoot, even if there was a wound in his waist, this punch was full of anger, even if the power of cultivation was affected, but it also broke out with extraordinary power!
When the punch slammed into the opponent's neck, there was a crisp click of broken bones.
Seeing Du Yu, who was still at a loss, the commander immediately twisted his neck and crooked it like a broken ball, and his body flew out violently, slamming into the pillar, falling to the ground with a bang, and then not moving.
The commander of the avenger let out a hearty low laugh, completely ignoring the blood still gushing out of his mouth.
The two worshippers who were deeply encircled, while the whirlwind of ten thousand leaves was blowing around them, saw that the people besieging them were either surrounded by blood mist that burst open, or rushed out of blood springs, but they were all right, where they didn't know that the reinforcements had arrived, and immediately rushed to a real person realm without hesitation, and with a loud roar!
Suo Xun's mutiny they were unexpected, and the sudden arrival of reinforcements was even more unexpected, until now, the two worshippers did not know what kind of confrontation the situation was experiencing, they only knew one thing: Suo Xun was going to launch a mutiny, but he was broken in advance, and sent a master to destroy it at a critical moment!
Could it be that the festival made it detect Suo Xun's objection in time?
But he had only come to see Suo Xun not long ago, and he had left for Yangguan again.
Is this the return of the knots?
They couldn't figure it out.
But both of them were unwilling to echo Suo Xun, seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the five real people in the house were covered in bruises in an instant, looking very serious, and their confidence suddenly increased, and the key was that they didn't see who was making the move!
It is obvious which is stronger and which is weaker, and the two worshippers know how to choose, both emotionally and intellectually.
The battle came abruptly and ended just as quickly.
The two Offerings easily defeated the two True Realms.
It's not that the two of them have outstanding combat strength, but the other party was not lightly injured by Ye Blade, not to mention, and it greatly limited their mobility, and they just attacked and took down their respective opponents.
And when the two of them eliminated the enemy, the other three real people fell in a pool of blood almost at the same time, and they did not have an inch of good flesh and bones in their bodies.
Suo Xun was wrapped around Bai Lian's neck, and the sword that intended to block Bai Lian cut his neck under Bai Lian's entanglement. If he hadn't put the treasure knife into the storage bag in time, he was afraid that his head would have moved.
Suo Xun, who was tied into a zongzi by Bai Lian and thrown in the hall and rolled straight away, finally stopped his body and barely straightened his waist, and was speechless by the scene in the hall.
His subordinates and staff members were all over the ground, and there were very few corpses left for identification, and the big pool of blood was spreading outward, and the pillars, curtains, walls and windows were full of spilled blood.
Several real human realm corpses are still complete, but they are also blurred and unrecognizable.
There were only three people standing in the hall.
Two of the two men who refused to accept his offering, and the commander who had been wounded in the waist.
The three of them were all looking down on him, their eyes full of contempt and hatred, especially the commander, who gritted their teeth, and seemed to want to come over and break him to pieces.
"Who the hell are you?!Zhang Huaishen, you sinister old thief, get out of here!" Suo Xun yelled, he thought it was Zhang Huaishen who had calculated him.
He saw the man who had shot at him.
A beautiful woman dressed in a purple and black robe, with a dark and vicious temperament, is twisting her slender waist, moving her straight long legs, and walking gracefully and leisurely from the window, with a graceful temperament and a thousand graces.
Although she didn't have much expression on her face, the look of contempt in her eyes was undisguised.
Suo Xun stared wide-eyed and froze there.
This person, he didn't know.
Zhang Huaishen's old background is very clear, how can there be such a strong master around the other party? How can there be someone he doesn't know?
Could it be that the other party is more scheming than himself?
That's impossible!
The two worshippers looked at the courtyard outside the door, although they didn't stare at the boss like Suo Xun, but they couldn't hide their amazement.
In the courtyard, a petite woman floating in the air, swirled by the light of the flying leaves, was slowly falling.
The other party was dressed in a purple and white dress and a scarf, and he didn't see his true face, but just looking at those ethereal and pure eyes, he knew that it must be a rare beauty in the world, maybe there was a love of the city.
"Who are you?!" Suo Xun looked at the women in the hall and then at the women in the courtyard, a little stunned and full of unwillingness.
The gorgeous woman in the robe, the corners of her purple and black lips moved slightly, looked at Suo Xun and said lightly: "Kill." ”
The woman in the white dress who walked into the lobby came to the woman holding Bai Lian, and looked at Suo Xun who had become a prisoner, her black eyes were like a clear pool, and her yellow bird-like voice was extremely fresh, and she said calmly: "Kill demons." ”
Not only Suo Xun, but also the commander and the two worshippers all trembled at the same time, like waking up from a dream.
The older worshippers couldn't help but say, "Allure!"
The younger worshipper took over the conversation and added excitedly: "Allure the country!"
The commander finally reacted, remembering a certain famous legend, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and said with awe: "Da Shao Si Ming!"
Suo Xun wailed and collapsed to the ground on his back, his eyes no longer lifeless, and he had no intention of struggling at all.
Wanye Feihua, practicing with his bare hands, killing people and killing demons, and the young master who fell into the city and the country was ordered to face him, he didn't recognize it at the first time, even if he was unpunished, he was not wronged.
Suo Xun looked at Fang Liang with blank eyes, and murmured unconsciously: "King An, it turned out that King An didn't wonder that I would be defeated, I would be defeated so completely, I was really not wronged at all."
The commander and the two worshippers also realized that their strong reinforcement turned out to be King An!
Although King An did not face him, it did not prevent them from imagining King An's heroic posture with awe, and they also agreed with Suo Xun's words.
King An in front of the Yangguan City Tower has not been out of the sword again.
The soldiers of the two armies attacking and defending the city pass in front of them were fighting fiercely.
The muffled sound of the crossbow strings unique to the crossbow of the magic instrument bed still resounded everywhere. As the blue crossbow arrows flew out, a blood line would be cleared out of the white-clothed monk army, creating a straight blood path of corpses on the battlefield that was already full of corpses.
The mid-to-high-end Shakti monks who practiced qi kept running from everywhere to the place where the crossbow flew out. But before they could get close to the magic weapon bed crossbow array, they were stopped by a group of strong people of the Guiyi Army who were not afraid of death.
And when the battle between the two sides is fierce, the magic weapon bed crossbow will change angles or change places under the command of Peng Zushan and continue to exert its power.
Because of the frequent movement, the crossbow bolts fired by the magic weapon bed were no longer continuous, and the burden of operation was reduced, and after such a long battle, only one was damaged, and it was not exploded, but it just disintegrated, and it was repaired by Peng Zushan, and it was actually usable again.
As the battle continued, Zhang Huaishen developed a variety of tactics in a very short period of time, such as luring the enemy, gathering and destroying, confusing the enemy, and counterattacking.
The middle and high-end monks who were attracted by the ritual bed crossbow were often beaten by the heavy soldiers of the Guiyi army who were ambushed, and where they left, the monks were counterattacked by the Guiyi army because of the loss of their high-level combat power, and they disappeared from the city wall.
Through the flexible use of these tactics, although the Guiyi army fought hard and suffered heavy casualties, it managed to withstand the onslaught of the monk regiment round after round, and also caused great damage to the other party!
"Talented. This is Chu Nanhuai's evaluation of Zhang Huaishen.
"Talent. This is Li Ye's evaluation.
"The capital of a famous general. This is Li Xian's opinion.
At first glance, Nangong saw that everyone had expressed their opinions, and each one was more incisive than the other, and each was more reasonable than the other, and he also wanted to express his insights.
But after searching my stomach and stomach, I thought about it for a long time, and I didn't come up with an evaluation that was better than everyone else, I just felt that everything I could say was said by them, and I was very frustrated for a while, feeling that I had missed a great opportunity to be in the limelight.
Make up your mind, the next time you meet someone or something that can comment, you must be the first to speak, so as not to be robbed of good words by others, Nangong is a little more comfortable in his first heart.
Glancing at the sky and seeing that it was already sunset, Li Ye called Zhang Huaishen over and said to him without reservation: "There are hidden dangers within the Guiyi Army, what do you think about this?"
Zhang Huai was taken aback, and hurriedly clenched his fists and explained: "Back to Your Highness, although there are some small battles in the Guiyi Army, no one has two ambitions, and the lower officials have confirmed it before coming, and no one will affect the battle of Yangguan, please rest assured, Your Highness!"
Thinking that he couldn't transfer all the real people to Yangguan, Zhang Huaishen felt weak and ashamed, and the last two words had no power.
Li Ye showed a vague smile on his face, "Suo Xun has always wanted to pull you off the horse, but now I am afraid that I have joined forces with Zhang Huaiding and will launch a mutiny in Guazhou." ”
Zhang Huaishen couldn't help but shake his hands, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, "How could His Highness know Suo Xun, this" He suddenly thought of something, and his face was like ashes in an instant, "Could it be that His Highness has received the news that they have changed in Guazhou?!"
If the other side really mutinies and the Guiyi Army is in chaos, how can Yangguan still be defended? How can Shazhou and Guazhou be defended? He, Zhang Huaishen, is a festival envoy, and he is guilty of great crimes! He has failed Li Ye and the others in the bloody battle, and it is even more difficult to escape the blame!
Zhang Huaishen stiffened his head and looked at Li Ye, only hoping that this incident did not happen.
"They have mobilized manpower, eliminated dissidents, and prepared to send troops to Yangguan. Li Ye's words made Zhang Huaishen couldn't help but take three steps back, only to feel that the sky was dark, and he almost sat on the ground.
However, what Li Ye said next made Zhang Huaishen come back to life in an instant, "I have already sent someone to help you settle this matter, Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding are both arrested now." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the base of the wall under the corridor, "Look. ”
Zhang Huaishen stretched out his head to look, and saw Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding, who were tied up like zongzi and thrown at the root of the wall.
"Your Highness, this" Zhang Huaishen didn't expect to see these two people in Yangguan, and he didn't know what to say for a while. When I looked back at Li Ye, I only felt that the other party was majestic, as high as a mountain, and as unfathomable as the sea, especially the smile on his face, which had the power to breathe.
It was only at this time that Zhang Huaiding discovered that behind Li Ye, there were two more beauties with different temperaments.
Li Ye patted Zhang Huaishen on the shoulder, signaling that he didn't need to panic, and smiled and said with relief: "It's getting dark, and the offensive of the monk corps will stop for a while." Telling you about this is nothing more than so that you don't have to worry about Guazhou anymore, and take advantage of the darkness to mobilize heavy troops and surround the bald donkey in front of you. ”
It is true that Zhang Huaishen is a military wizard, but the officialdom struggle is a little worse, otherwise he would not have been strengthened by Suo Xun to this point, Jin Wuzu is not perfect, Li Ye has no intention of blaming him.
Hearing Li Ye's words, Zhang Huaishen suddenly realized that it turned out that the battle in Yangguan had reached the time to divide the victory and defeat. And seeing that Li Ye handled everything so neatly, it was obvious that he had a good mind and was in control of everything, and now, as long as he could mobilize heavy troops to complete the encirclement of the monks and soldiers, he would be able to win a big victory in this battle!
Thinking of this, Zhang Huaishen could hardly suppress his urge to bow and worship, and hurriedly bowed, and surrendered happily: "The lower official receives the order!"
