At two o'clock, the horizon begins to whiten, symbolizing the beginning of a new day. It's just that the west gate of Yundu City is already full of corpses, and red raindrops are floating in the air, which have fallen on Qin Tian's pale white bun one after another.

At the same moment, the Rizhao Pioneer Battalion has sneaked into the top of the city gate of Yundu West City, as Neiying's letter said, the city gate guards are not more than a hundred, and the sound of the rain hitting the city wall just covers the sound of the moon lice flapping their wings, they easily turned over the city, hanged all the sleeping soldiers, and at the same time let the moon lice guard the various crossings in the city. Qin Tiancang ordered the release of toad poison, searched and strangled street by street, and not a single person in the garrison camp of more than 100 people in the west of the city escaped from the camp alive.

After winning the first battle and successfully completing the first step of the plan, Qin Tiancang breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but secretly think to himself: It seems that the Moon Lice Legion is not weak, but it is only because the Extreme Dao has the power to reach the sky, otherwise the city would have been broken two hours ago.

Qin Yu was ordered to open the gate west of the city, and Cui Shang flew back to the other side to extradite the remaining 30,000 elite soldiers. Qin Tiancang was worried that there would be changes later, so he ordered the soldiers of the Moon Lice Pioneer Battalion to fight quickly. He personally led his soldiers to climb the high-rise building in the west of the city and look into the distance, only to see a towering building in the distance towering into the clouds, green tile jujube wall, carved railing jade thorough, it is really a fairyland on earth.

Qin Yu pointed to the distance and shouted, "Father, presumably that is the palace of Yundu!"

Qin Tiancang nodded, and then his expression was pale, and his heart was full of emotion, the defeat of Ye Yuecheng twenty years ago was a pain that he had not been able to let go. It was here that he was subjected to the control of others, and he was forced to cede the oath between Yeyue City and Yundu, and all humiliation began here, and now it should end here.

Qin Yu saw that his father was a little touched, and his face seemed to have burst into tears, he obviously had victory in his hands and it was within reach, but he still stopped and was sad here, and he was puzzled in his heart, so he walked in front of his father.

"Why does my father still have the leisure to stop here, the Yundu Palace is close at hand, and the sons are willing to lead the vanguard battalion to take the Yundu Palace directly, and dedicate the head of Yelu Jinyun to the father. ”

"Delusion, I don't want you to be arrogant and arrogant, I just want you not to have delusions, and to guard against arrogance and rashness, do you know your father's good intentions?"

Hearing Qin Tiancang's preaching, Qin Yu, who was originally impatient, could only be like a child who had done something wrong, hooking his head and nodding yes, but he was depressed and impetuous in his heart, and his expression was slightly dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Qin Tiancang no matter what.

At the time of the dialogue between father and son, the sentinel came to report that the grass and trees in Anlin were deep, all of them were high in the sky and the sun, and the flag was faintly seen waving behind the grass and trees, and it was suspected that the royal city guards of Yundu were guards.

Qin Tiancang asked, "How long will it take for the rear army to cross the Chen River?"

"It will take about two hours to return to the king. ”

"No, it's too slow, the army is slow, so that Yundu has a chance to defend, pass on the edict of Benjun, let the rear army march immediately, the Moon Lice Pioneer Battalion will count the men and horses, and gather in Anlin immediately, we will break through the defense line of Anlin when Yundu has not yet fully formed a defensive force!"

"Command!" After the sentry officer got the order, he flew to the battalions to issue the edict, but Qin Yu did not act in place for a while, he was arrogant, he regarded himself as a prince, but he did not hold any important position in the army, and he already had some resentment in his heart, this time he heard that Qin Tiancang planned to attack An Lin, and immediately wanted to recommend himself, so that he could establish military merits in the army, so that his father and Cui Shang and others did not dare to underestimate themselves.

"Father, how about attacking Anlin and letting his sons take the moon lice pioneer battalion to take the lead first?"

"Delusion, marching and fighting is a major matter for soldiers, you are still inexperienced, and your force is insufficient, how can you put the Moon Lice Pioneer Battalion under your command. ”

"Why doesn't my father believe in his son, I have followed my father since I was a child to learn the art of exorcism, practiced diligently for several years, no one among my peers is my opponent, and has been training with the army for many years, I have long been familiar with my father's weekday marching formation, and the strategy of the military is also familiar with it, today we are in sight, this little An Lin might as well let the child practice his hands, and let my father test my learning results in the army in the past two years. ”

Qin Tiancang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "The grass and trees in Anlin are deep, there must be an ambush, you can't let the soldiers fight in close combat, you can let the moon lice pass through first, and after clearing the ambush, the soldiers will pass again, so that it is foolproof." ”

"Father's words have been written down!"

Qin Yu finally got the approval of his father, and kowtowed one after another to thank him. On the way back to the camp, he was in high spirits, and immediately ordered his troops, and he never got tired at all.

Cui Shang learned that Qin Yu led his troops to beat An Lin, and he panicked in his heart, and hurriedly met Qin Tiancang.

"What's wrong with Benjun letting Yu'er lead the troops to attack Anlin, don't say that he is Benjun's biological son, even if he is not, just say that he is not afraid of success or failure, and Benjun should also agree to the determination to take the initiative to ask for battle. ”

Qin Tiancang's words were majestic, but Cui Shang's words came to his lips but he was suffocated. At this time, he suddenly understood the true meaning of the four words 'intimate intimacy', the monarch agreed to Qin Delirium's request, in fact, it was to let Qin Delirium increase his prestige in the army, but as soon as the war began, it was a matter of death. Then he slandered himself for colluding with Yundu, completely ignoring the kindness of saving his life, so he was so stubborn, and the inheritance of the unification in the future would be the end of the sunshine.

Cui Shang thought to himself, it is better to let him go to capture Anlin first, and he will step up the work of crossing the river with the rear army, if Anlin is not captured, there will still be 30,000 Rizhao elite soldiers to suppress the realm, and even if Yundu has the help of cultivators, it will definitely not change the situation of the battle.

Cui Shang thought of this and dispelled the idea of dissuasion, and it happened that there was another matter that needed to be reported urgently, just to eliminate Qin Tiancang's doubts.

"The king asked the prince to lead the troops, how dare the ministers say more, I came for another thing. ”

"Cui Shang, could it be that someone from the inside has already been contacted?"

"The king is clever, and the person who should be in the camp is now in the camp. ”

"In that case, take Benjun to meet him immediately!"

Taking advantage of Cui Shang taking Qin Tiancang to meet the people of Yundu, Qin Yu wanted to establish military merits as soon as possible, so he did not pass it on, and took one hundred soldiers of the Moon Lice Pioneer Battalion to Anlin, who knew that one hundred and one people went to attack Anlin, and Chen Shi fled back in embarrassment More than 80 Moon Lice soldiers came back to be punished, Qin Yu did not return with the soldiers, but was captured by the enemy.

Cui Shang heard the news but didn't think so, in his opinion, Qin Yu insisted on being arrested for nearly an hour before he was seriously impressed, but it was not easy for the monarch Qin Tiancang to explain, and at this time he was secretly talking with the people in Yundu in the Zhongjun tent.

Cui Shang whispered outside the curtain: "The subordinates have something important to do!"

Qin Tiancang's voice came faintly from inside: "Is it just you?" ”

"There is only one subordinate. ”

"Come in. ”

Cui Shang lifted the curtain and walked in, seeing that there was no oil lamp in the tent, the light was dim and abnormal, and he saw that a person sitting on the main seat was the king Qin Tiancang, and there was also a person sitting in the guest seat, with a hat on his head, a mask on his face, and a night outfit on his body, and his appearance could not be distinguished. However, although it was impossible to verify the appearance of the figure, Cui Shang was sure that this person was the person who should be in the cloud capital.

Cui Shang waved at the masked man, and the other party replied with a fist on his head, Qin Tiancang saw Cui Shang's anxious face, so he said: "Everyone present is his own people, what is Cui Shang's important thing to say?"

"Back... Returning to the king, His Royal Highness the Prince... He was defeated in Anlin and was captured alive!"

"What!" Qin Tiancang's eyes darkened, and his limbs fell limply on the seat.

Seeing this, Cui Shang hurriedly stepped forward to protect Qin Tiancang's heart, but saw Qin Tiancang's face haggard, his lips trembling, like an old man who was about to die.

Cui Shang persuaded bitterly: "Don't panic, the subordinates will definitely fight to rescue His Highness." ”

Qin Tiancang said sadly: "This monarch shouldn't let Yu'er lead the troops alone, I hurt him!"

"Your Majesty, the subordinates see that His Highness has no worries about his life for the time being, and Yundu will definitely take him as a hostage to force our army to surrender. ”

"This time the troops are expensive in the use of troops, now for the sake of the dog caused the army to stagnate, once the defenders of Yushan Mountain learned the news of our country's conquest of Yundu, they will inevitably divide their troops back to the city to defend, once the fighter plane is delayed, it will fall into a fierce battle, our army waded into the water for a long time, and the delay will be unfavorable to our army. ”

Cui Shang asked, "Now that the prince is detained, will you send someone to negotiate?"

Qin Tiancang sighed: "Let me think about it again." ”

Suddenly, there was laughter in the banquet, Qin Tiancang looked up, and saw that the laughter came from the mouth of the masked man, he was worried, but when he heard someone laughing, he was unhappy in his heart.

"Why is the gentleman laughing?"

When the masked man saw Qin Tiancang asking, he suppressed his laughter and bowed and said, "Your Excellency, it's just right to hear the conversation between the two and find something interesting, so he laughed." ”

"I wonder where Mr. thinks there is something to laugh at?"

"My Xiaoyun is already a place at my fingertips, is it not as important as an heir? Today's situation is already on the verge of being sent on the string, sacrificing a person's life in exchange for this splendid river and mountain, which is more important at a glance, why doesn't the king understand this truth?"

"Mr. does not know, this son is born to the same wife of the king, after the wife mourned only this one man, although the king has a new love, but unforgettable old love, so the child is spoiled, more interested in the throne to him, this monarch this year sixty three, he is a day, the rivers and mountains of the country of Rizhao also need someone to take care of it. ”

"In this way, the king's intention has already been made clear, if you really want to save the prince, since you have already made up your mind, why hesitate?"

Qin Tiancang nodded noncommittally, and when he saw that the masked man looked like he was in his chest, he politely persuaded him: "Since Mr. knows Benjun's intentions, please ask Mr. to help Benjun rescue the prince." ”

The masked man took out a folding fan from his waist, tapped his palm a few times and said: "It's not difficult to save the prince, just let me make a move, my identity is very easy to be revealed, there are only two conditions in the next place, if the king is willing to accept it, then the matter of saving the prince is on the next body." ”

"Sir, but it doesn't matter, as long as this gentleman is within his ability, he will definitely agree to sir. ”

"Jun Yi has always been convinced, then he has the courage to put forward two conditions, the first thing is that Rizhao must not withdraw its troops, I want the Rizhao soldiers to occupy the Yundu Guiyuan Hall in the cold dew tomorrow, and force Yelu Jinyun to abdicate and go into the wilderness. ”

Cui Shang interjected: "We are here for this matter, why do we need to say more, but if we can't save the prince and insist on using troops, wouldn't it hurt His Royal Highness the prince." ”

"As I said, it is my business to rescue the prince, and you can only conquer the city. ”

Qin Tiancang opened his mouth and said: "If Mr. is willing to make a move, the prince will definitely be able to save it, this gentleman promises you the first condition, and please say the second condition." ”

"This second condition is exactly what the king proposed to let me hand over the 'Heavenly Ribbon Heart Sutra', this scripture is the treasure of Yundu cultivation, not to mention whether the Heart Sutra can be found, that is, I found it, I really don't dare to use it as a bargaining chip to give it to others, I hope you will see the difficulties below. ”

Qin Tiancang and Cui Shang glanced at each other, and Qin Tiancang then explained: "I don't have a person who cultivates the fate of the hidden yuan in Rizhao, but it is entrusted by the queen, so I want to borrow it to read, if Mr. feels embarrassed, I don't want it in Rizhaoguo!"

It is rumored that Queen Zhen is talented and intelligent, and she is intellectual, and one person knows the respective cultivation methods of Rizhao, Yundu, and Luosheng, and the three are integrated into one method, and there is this moon lice domestication technique, which has been admired for a long time, but there is no chance to visit, if there is a chance to find the whereabouts of the Heart Sutra in the future, he should personally take it to Queen Zhen for correction. ”

"Sir is serious, but I wonder what Mr. can do to save the prince?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince must have been captured by He Pei, He Pei has a large array of 'Peiyu Fengwu' in Anlin, this formation is easy to lose the true element, but within the formation, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it should be the first big formation to reject the crowd. ”

"This array has been seen when the monarch is not lacking in the battle with the extreme, although it is extremely powerful, but it is not difficult to break, if the moon lice army concentrates on releasing toad poison, the caster in the formation is difficult to resist, and he will definitely die of poison. ”

"The king may not have figured it out, Zai Xia does not mean to kill He Pei, He Pei has no chance of winning against me, it is easy to kill her in Xia, but killing her will provoke Chong Wanzhong and even several other Si Tian to deal with me together, so wouldn't Xia become the public enemy of Jiali Temple, and how can he serve as a deacon of Jiali Temple in the future?"

"What do you mean, sir..."

"He Pei is just a female streamer, it is useless to kill her, but she can be used as a dissemination for me, or a chess piece to balance Xiao Luo, which will be useful in the future. ”

Qin Tiancang was still skeptical, and the masked man was relieved: "If you still have doubts, you might as well make an agreement, tomorrow is the season of cold dew, and it happens to be a great opportunity to break through the palace. ”

"Okay, in this way, this monarch will continue to lead troops across the river, and when Mr. saves the prince, he will definitely follow the oath and attack the Yundu Palace with all his might!"

"As soon as the word is decided, I will go back to rescue His Royal Highness the Prince now, please stay. ”

After the masked man saw Qin Tiancang agree, he immediately left the camp to do business, Qin Tiancang had no master of the six gods in his heart at this time, and he forgot to ask for advice on how to break through An Lin for a while, until the masked man left, he suddenly thought about it, and immediately felt annoyed.

"Your Majesty," Cui Shangzuo said, "I don't know how An Lin broke it?"

Benjun was so anxious that he forgot to ask Mr. Bai for advice, and he was regretting this matter at this time, if he could contact him again. ”

Cui Shang shook his head and said: "People have gone away, I'm afraid it's difficult to catch up again, but the subordinates think that there are many soldiers in the battalion, and it is not difficult to defeat He Pei, but Mr. Bai told him to leave He Pei's life, so it is not easy to start, presumably the king is worried about this matter." ”

"The delusion has not been rescued, Ben Jun is already a rat bogeyman, where do you dare to attack An Lin, but Mr. Bai's words are conclusive, it seems that he has a bamboo in his chest, and Ben Jun is not sure whether to attack or not to attack for a while. ”

"According to the minister's view, Mr. Bai is like a businessman who does business, he will never stop until he gets benefits, now that His Royal Highness is captured, Yundu will inevitably hold His Highness hostage to blackmail our country to retreat, once he retires, his desire to be a deacon of Jiali Temple will inevitably be frustrated, and even his identity will be revealed, and Yundu will not be able to tolerate him at that time. Therefore, he must do his best to help us rescue the prince, and the subordinates think that they might as well do as he said, and it is impossible to stop leading troops to cross the river, and at the same time gather the existing forces to storm Anlin, Anlin only has He Pei and a few hundred Wangcheng garrison generals, as long as they take turns to attack, when their soldiers are tired, they can take advantage of the victory to pursue, and it is not difficult to capture He Pei in time. ”

"And Rong Benjun thought about it again and again, you first ordered the sentries to continue to guide the remaining soldiers to cross the river, and whether to attack Benjun thought that he could wait for Yundu's reply before making a decision. ”

"Return! Return to the monarch, Yundu has come to the envoy to bring a letter to the audience!"

Suddenly, there were soldiers outside the tent waiting to listen to the announcement, Cui Shang said: "The guess is good, it must be that Yundu is threatening the prince, I don't think the king needs to reply to the messenger in a hurry, he should pretend to delay the time, and wait until Mr. Bai has a reply before making plans." ”

"Well, that's all I have to do now, so please come and make the account first, and then I'll talk about it when I read the letter. ”

Cui Shang saw that Qin Tiancang was meeting with the envoys of Yundu, and it was inconvenient for him to stay in the tent, so he withdrew from the deployment of troops. And said that after Qin Tiancang read the letter, he couldn't help but be worried, and hurriedly recalled Cui Shang, Cui Shang saw Qin Tiancang's frowns, so he knew that in the letter, he usually looked at what Qin Delirium had done, and he had always been opposed to rescuing Qin Delirium by withdrawing troops, but as a minister, he had to take Qin Tiancang's head as a leader, and now Qin Tiancang was undecided, and he was really worried in his eyes.

"Your Highness, is there any news for Your Highness?"

"It is indeed the news of Delirium, he has been disarmed and imprisoned in the Jiali Temple, and the letter states that if our army does not withdraw at noon tomorrow, Delirium will be escorted to the Meridian Altar for execution, what can I do!"

"Oh," Cui Shang unconsciously pinched his shallow beard with his fingers after listening, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly turned his back to pick up the letter paper on the tea case, Cui Shang's eyes were slightly overlooked, and a sly smile slowly appeared on his face. He asked, "Your Majesty, do you know who wrote this letter?"

Qin Tiancang frowned and said, "Cui Shang, your eyebrows are already burning, why do you bother with who wrote this letter?"

"Your Majesty, don't you think the handwriting of this letter is very familiar?"

Hearing this, Qin Tiancang hurriedly took the letter paper that Cui Shang was holding in his hand, and looked at it from top to bottom, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows slowly relaxed.

"It turned out to be Mr. Bai's handwriting, no wonder it is so familiar, but this letter only says that Yu'er is locked up in Jiali Temple, but it does not arrange our actions, whether it is to send troops or wait, this gentleman still doesn't quite understand. ”

"Your Majesty, I expect that His Royal Highness the Prince is not in danger of his life, so it is better to attack An Lin with all his might. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Since Mr. Bai wrote, His Highness has naturally fallen into his hands, and the location of the escort and execution written in his letter has been clearly implied, that is, we should attack and occupy the royal city and the Kali Temple before noon tomorrow, otherwise, as he said, the previous work will be wasted, and not only will he no longer cooperate with us, but His Highness's life will also be in danger. ”

"What Aiqing said is very true, then you quickly go to prepare some soldiers and horses, the moon lice pioneer battalion and the soldiers who have crossed the river all participate in the battle, this monarch will definitely conquer Anlin today, and then surround the Guiyuan Palace. ”
