Zhike's hand rose and fell, his movements flowed, he didn't have any fancy movements, he maintained a subtle rhythm, harvesting the lives of the disciples of Burning Flame Valley one after another, and there was no fluctuation on his face, and this deadly rhythm made the old man palpitate even more, he knew in his heart that if the person in the ring was replaced by him, it would definitely not be as easy as Zhike.

Soon, only about a dozen of the fifty or so disciples remained, and the rest were all killed! They no longer dared to get close to Zhike for half a minute, and retreated behind the old man one after another, looking at Zhike with fear in their eyes, and the bloodied Zhike was no different from the Grim Reaper who had hooked his life in their eyes!

Although he killed more than thirty people, Zhike still didn't feel tired, his eyes were still so cold, he saw that the old man's heart was cold, and his tone trembled a little.

"You...... Who the hell are you?"

Zhike slowly raised his head, wiped the blood from his face, and said lightly: "Zhike." ”

"Zhike?" The old man frowned, he seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and after a while, he suddenly realized, his legs were weak and he almost fell to his knees, and said in a trembling voice: "Qiyunguan Ice Vein Mountain Gate...... Acquaintance?"

Zhike nodded slightly.

Zhike's fame had spread throughout the Central Plains ten years ago, and he was outrageously famous in the Central Plains for his cultivation speed, and everyone knew that Qiyunguan had a cold-faced god.

"Your Excellency, why did you come to my Burning Flame Valley to slaughter my disciples? I remember that the Burning Flame Valley did not provoke you, let alone Qi Yunguan!"

"What have you done, don't you know?"

The old man's heart sank, and he finally understood why Zhike would come to the Burning Flame Valley to kill, after all, the Burning Flame Valley's behavior of helping the Tatars had touched the bottom line of the Central Plains Sect!

At this time, a disciple beside the old man said in horror: "So, Elder Wu ...... him"

The old man sighed and said in a deep voice: "I am also forced to do it, since the matter has been revealed, Your Excellency can take my life, but my disciples are innocent, and I hope you will not pursue them." ”

Zhike nodded, put away the sword in his hand, and just as he took off his guard, the remaining dozen or so Burning Flame Valley disciples were shocked, and then rushed towards Zhike again with their weapons, but their eyes were full of innocence and despair.

Zhike snorted lightly, and at the moment when these Burning Flame Valley disciples rushed over, the old man suddenly turned into a ball of flames and immediately disappeared!

"I didn't expect you to use puppetry to let your disciple contain me in order to escape, and practice forbidden arts, the sin is unforgivable!"

Puppetry is a great trick of the Devouring Sect, it is a yin and evil spell used to control others, also known as necromancy, it is a first-class forbidden technique recognized by the Central Plains Orthodox, as a cultivator in the Central Plains, everyone must abide by this iron law, seeing the old man perform the puppet technique, the killing intent in the eyes of the acquaintance is even stronger!

The controlled Burning Flame Valley disciples rushed towards Zhike regardless of life or death, and Zhike drew his sword again, stabbing out one sword after another, and was quickly killed, but it also delayed Zhike for some time.

Although Zhike cultivated to a high level, he could not find out the direction of the old man's escape, and he had already completed the task given to him by Akizawa, so he had to give up and throw the fire sword straight into the nearby house, and under the effect of the flames of hell, the Burning Flame Valley soon became a sea of fire.

Retracting the sword, Zhike returned with the sword, and flew quickly in the direction of Yanghe.

————

In Yanghe's official residence, Zhu Houzhao was closing his eyes to recuperate, and a soldier ran in quickly, knelt on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "Report! The Tatar army has reached fifty miles outside Yingzhou City, and it should have been fighting with our army in Wuli Village at this time!"

Zhu Houzhao suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "How many people?"

"The fog is too great to distinguish, and judging by the horseshoe prints, there are at least 50,000 people. ”

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand: "Got it, go down." ”

When the soldiers retreated, Qiu Ze smiled and said, "Everything is going according to your plan. ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "Although I used a strategy to lure the little prince to attack Yingzhou, Wang Xun does not have many troops in his hands, and I am worried that he will not be able to delay the reinforcements to meet." ”

Qiu Ze said with relief: "Don't worry, I have sent the disciples of the Ice Vein and the disciples of the Eighteen Halls to follow the Tatar army in the fog, with them, the little prince will never be able to step into Yingzhou City within half a month!"

The first thing Zhike did when he returned to the Central Plains was to gather his disciples, after the first battle of Qiyunguan, the ice vein suffered heavy losses, and only a few people could be summoned by Zhike, but the disciples of the ice vein were cultivated to a high level, although the number was small, but it could also make Zhu Houzhao feel at ease, as the emperor, of course, he knew the power of Qiyunguan Ice Vein.

"Okay, then, it's time for us to appear!" Zhu Houzhao immediately called a few cavalrymen, and then wrote a long list of military orders and handed them over to them.

After doing this, Zhu Houzhao turned around, handed Qiu Ze a letter, and said to Qiu Ze: "In this way, it will be troublesome Your Excellency." ”

Qiu Ze smiled slightly, stepped on the Taigu Frost, and sped away in the direction of Yingzhou.

————

Yingzhou, foggy.

Qiu Ze slowly fell, the place where he was a hill, under the thick fog, he couldn't tell the direction, blew a whistle, and soon, two people in the thick fog came quickly.

One of these two people is riding a big cat, and the other is riding a big horse, which is Zi Yi and Ye Feifu.

Akisawa was the first to ask, "How is it?"

Ye Feixu shook his head and said, "We followed the Tatar army for two days, but we couldn't find the existence of cultivators, presumably they have already blended into the Tatar cavalry, and it will take some time to find them out." ”

Qiu Ze nodded: "It seems that the little prince is very well prepared, in this case, you and I will go to Yingzhou quickly, Wang Xun will not last long." ”

As he spoke, Qiu Ze took out three sets of armor from the Qiankun bag, put them on separately, and then ran quickly in the direction of Wuli Village.

Before arriving at Wuli Village, the three of them heard the shouting and killing sound in the sky, it was noon at this time, the fog was slightly lighter, standing on a high place, the three of them could clearly see that there were tens of thousands of cavalry in front of them were fighting fiercely!

Both sides were merciless, and the Tatar cavalry relied on the numerical advantage to have a slight advantage, but they could not retreat sharply from the Ming army, and the Ming army launched wave after wave of counterattack, which made the Tatar army continue to retreat.

Ye Feixu looked excited, if it wasn't for Qiu Ze pulling him, he would have already mounted his horse to support the Ming army.

"Their cultivators haven't shown up yet, if you go, I'm afraid that it will be meat buns beating dogs, you and I will find a chance to enter Yingzhou City!"

Qiu Ze said a word, and then walked towards the direction of Yingzhou, Ye Feixu suppressed his excitement and followed Qiu Ze.

Yingzhou City was full of Ming troops with bows and arrows, and when they saw three people coming, they all aimed their bows at the comers.

"Hurry up and open the city gate, I'm the Liaodong staff general Ye Fei!"

Ye Feixu rode in the front, and after confirming the identities of the three people, the Ming army let the three into the city.

After entering the city, a general-like person led dozens of people to quickly come to the three of them, and said in surprise: "How did you come here?"

Ye Feixu smiled: "The mountain people have their own tricks!"

The general smiled and said, "I'm Wang Xun, the chief soldier of Datong, and you came too timely! By the way, how many men and horses did you bring?"

Ye Feixu grinned: "Just the three of us." ”

Wang Xun's face quickly changed from excitement to loss: "Just the three of you?"

Qiu Ze arched his hand and said: "The general doesn't have to be nervous, although there are only three of us, but the three of us are enough! The emperor has already sent reinforcements, as long as we drag the little prince, in a few days, all kinds of reinforcements will arrive in Yingzhou!"

Qiu Ze handed over the letter from Zhu Houzhao to Wang Xun, Wang Xun's face looked a little better, and he bowed his hand to Qiu Ze and led everyone to the top of the city tower, at this time it was already dusk, and the Ming Dynasty cavalry withdrew back one after another to defend Yingzhou.

After several general-looking people entered the city, they came to the top of the city tower, and one of them laughed a few times: "General Soldier Wang, we are back! His grandmother's! It's so enjoyable! When did our Ming army fight the Tatar cavalry like this? It's really too enjoyable!"

The people who came all had some wounds on their bodies, but their faces were full of excitement.

Wang Xun stood up and said with a smile: "In today's battle, the deputy chief soldier and you have made great contributions, and I must report your military merits to the emperor." ”

The man at the head waved his hand: "Military merit is secondary, the main thing is that we have dealt a blow to the little prince's sharp spirit, in my opinion, we still need to fight tomorrow! It is best to defeat the little prince in one fell swoop!"

Wang Xun smiled bitterly: "Forget it, let's wait for the reinforcements from all walks of life to arrive and then make plans, with the strength in our hands, we will fight twice more and lose it before the reinforcements arrive." ”

The man hurriedly said: "But we are so sluggish, the little prince will definitely attack tomorrow!"

At this time, Akisawa spoke.

"Fight, naturally it's going to be fought, but you can't spread it out like this anymore, I look at this heavenly image, there will be fog at night, why don't you and I go to the Tatar military camp to find out, how about it?"

Only then did the man turn his head to look at Qiu Ze, his face suddenly became surprised, and he said loudly, "Qiu ...... Akizawa?"

Qiu Ze smiled: "Brother Wu Hao, long time no see!"

This person is Wu Hao and Wu Baihu that Qiu Ze had seen in Huangsha Town before!

"Since you know each other, I'll just say it. Wang Xun saw that the two knew each other, so he pointed to Qiu Ze and said to Wu Hao: "This is General Qiu sent by the emperor, the emperor has orders, and all actions are subject to his orders." ”

Wu Hao came to Qiu Ze, hugged Qiu Ze, and laughed: "Good boy, I didn't expect you to become a general now!"

At that time, Wu Hao had invited Qiu Ze to join the Ming army several times, but Qiu Ze politely declined, but he didn't expect that when he saw Qiu Ze again, Qiu Ze's power was greater than that of the chief soldier Wang Xun.

Qiu Ze laughed: "At that time, I remembered that you were just a hundred households, and now you have become the deputy chief soldier, and you are not bad!"
