Chapter Forty-Seven: Soldiers Coming to the City of Ink

The extreme east of Nanzhou, the Great Chu State, Mocheng.

In the hall of Xia Mansion, Xia Yu sat on the side seat, and the main seat was vacant, which was reserved for Xia Yi. Below, Xia Xiu and Xia Lin sat on both sides. Xia Yu frowned, his face was gloomy, and he asked Xia Lin: "Third brother, how long can the remaining grain reserves last?" Xia Lin immediately said: "Big brother, now my Xia Mansion has stored grain, which is enough for my Mocheng for three years!" Xia Yu nodded, looked at Xia Xiu and asked, "Second brother, how is the battle situation recently?" Xia Xiu said: "In the past few years, the 100,000 elite soldiers of the Great Chu Royal Family have been stationed outside my Mocheng, blocking the trade route, besieging but not attacking, it seems that we want to wait for the reserves of my Mocheng to be exhausted, and it will be self-defeating!"

Xia Yu shook his head and said slowly: "Zhu Tongwu, coming soon!" When the two heard this, their faces changed slightly, and Xia Yu said again: "Yesterday, the general Xiang Wuchu and the prime minister Zou Yan were all deposed and returned to their hometowns. Zhu Tongwu has reappointed Tian Bixiong as the general, and allocated 200,000 troops to him to attack our Mocheng!"

Tian Bixiong, it is said that this person was at the peak of the acquired realm three years ago, and there is only a line away from the innate realm! Now I don't know how much his cultivation is, and he even came with an army of 200,000 people, and Mocheng will inevitably have a bloody storm! Xia Xiu heard this, and immediately said: "Now that my Mocheng is as solid as gold, and many dark grids on the city wall are equipped with crossbow arrows, if he Tian Bixiong's army is overwhelmed, let him taste the pain of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart first!"

Five days later.

Under Mocheng, a burly figure wearing armor and sitting on a tall horse was none other than Tian Bixiong! Tian Bixiong held a long knife and shouted at Xia Yu on the city wall: "The Xia family sits in Mocheng, and everyone knows the intention of rebellion, and this general is ordered by the emperor to come to eliminate the thieves!"

Xia Yu was dressed in armor, standing on the city wall, overlooking the bottom, and sneered: "It is worthy of being the general of Tian Bixiong, and he said it so high-sounding when he was a thief! My Xia family is the richest man in the Great Chu State, if your royal family does not covet my Xia family's wealth and rival the country, what reason is there to raise troops to come here, hum!

Tian Bixiong was a little overwhelmed by this, and immediately ordered the army behind him: "All soldiers, attack the city and exterminate the thieves!" The 300,000 army received the order and immediately rushed towards Mocheng. At this moment, Xia Xiu put on the city wall in a military suit and said to the soldiers defending the city: "Soldiers, the safety of Mocheng will be in your hands!

These soldiers defending the city are all masters of the acquired realm in Xia Xiu's Yunyan Pavilion, if they are against those armies below, they are all heroes who are one against ten! On the city wall, Xia Lin has already built a dark grid, equipped with countless bows and crossbows and arrows, these positions and angles are tricky, and it is difficult to attack under the city. At this moment, 50,000 vanguard troops had come to the city, and they were in high spirits, erecting ladders on the city walls and beginning to climb up. At this time, Xia Xiu on the city wall ordered: "All soldiers, release arrows!"

Suddenly, countless arrows were shot from the city wall, and Tian Bixiong's vanguard troops were covered by an overwhelming rain of arrows, and the city was in a mess. Then, on the city wall, four or five big men jointly lifted a huge stone and threw it down the city, and the huge stone pressed on the body of several soldiers below with great force, causing a large number of dead and wounded in an instant. Seeing this, Tian Bixiong immediately ordered: "Withdraw the troops!" The 50,000 vanguard troops fled in defeat as if they had been granted amnesty. In Mocheng, an earth-shattering cry sounded to celebrate the victory!

In the middle of the night, hundreds of figures flew out of the city and quietly entered the barracks of Tian Bixiong's army. These people are the three hundred innate realm masters in Xia Xiu's Yunyan Pavilion, who have been personally tested by Xia Xiu, and are loyal to the Xia family, and have been taught by Xia Xiu the innate exercises-Bull Demon Breaking Heaven! At the beginning, Xia Yi obtained the Bull Demon Breaking Heaven Strength and Thunder Falling Zixiao Secret from Zhou Mo Commander of Baiyun Palace, and later he met Gu Yuru, so he hid the Bull Demon Breaking Heaven Strength in the token, and asked Gu Yuru to hold the token to see Xia Yu.

On the second day, 100 high-ranking officers suddenly disappeared in Tian Bixiong's barracks, and the whole army was shocked, and Tian Bixiong was furious! He led his army to the bottom of Mocheng, only to see 100 of his own officers tied up on the wall of Mocheng, and they were stuffed with their own clothes in their mouths, unable to speak, and their faces were humiliated. Seeing this, Tian Bixiong scolded: "Xia Yu, despicable villain, broke into my military camp at night and kidnapped my officers, don't release them quickly!"

Xia Yu is wearing a long shirt today, holding a paper fan in his hand, and he is graceful. He said slowly: "General Tian, my Mocheng plus the people in the city, there are only 50,000 people, and now you are leading 300,000 troops to the city to rob my Xia family's property, you say, who is more despicable, hum!" Xia Yu glared at his eyes and shouted: "My Xia family is safe and guarded, I don't take the army in Mocheng, I don't take care of the government, and the first emperor has never embarrassed my Xia family! Now that Zhu Tongwu has just ascended the throne, he sent an army to attack while my father-in-law was out, who is more despicable!!"

Tian Bixiong was speechless for a while, thought for a long time, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xia Yu: "Tian Bixiong listen, limit your 300,000 troops to withdraw three hundred miles outside my Mocheng within one day, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Tian Bixiong was angry by this sentence, and immediately ordered the army to come forward and attack the city.

Xia Xiu, dressed in military uniform, lifted a bound officer with one hand, and raised the knife in his hand. The officer screamed miserably, and saw that Xia Xiu was holding an ear in his hand, which was the officer's left ear! The army below was about to attack the city, and they all stopped at this moment and looked at Xia Xiu. Tian Bixiong said angrily: "Xia Xiu, if you dare to hurt my soldiers again, General Ben will let your Mocheng bleed like a river!"

Xia Xiu threw the ear at Tian Bixiong, laughed twice, and then said: "Tian Bixiong, if you don't retreat, the hundreds of officers on this city wall will not just cut off their ears!" Tian Bixiong clenched his fists, his face was hideous, he glared at Xia Xiu on the city wall fiercely, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Withdraw the army!" , and the 300,000 troops withdrew. In the Xia Mansion, Xia Yu sat in the courtyard in a yellow shirt and said to Xia Xiu: "Tian Bixiong is so uncontrollable, he will definitely sneak into Mocheng at night." Second brother, you ambushed those 400 innate masters at the east gate and the long pavilion respectively...... These places, with Tian Bixiong's character, he will definitely enter my Xia Mansion from these roads!" Xia Xiu said: "I will go down and order immediately!"

Tian Bixiong was furious and led the army to be stationed 300 miles away from Mocheng, and he had no doubt that if the army entered that area, those officers on the city wall would definitely be killed by Xia Xiu in front of the 300,000 army! At that time, the 300,000 army was cold, and who else was willing to fight for him! In the evening, Tian Bixiong sat in the camp tent and thought for a long time with a bitter face, and suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, and he said: "You Xia Xiu can break into the military camp at night, can't I, Tian Bixiong, break into your Mocheng at night?" Immediately, he immediately went to select elite soldiers and prepare a plan to break into Mocheng at night.

At night, when it was the most exhausting time of the day for normal people, Tian Bixiong led a small team of elite soldiers who were good at stealing and quietly entered the ink city. Along the way, Tian Bixiong evaded the soldiers on duty and gradually approached the Xia Mansion with a team of men. At this time, it has already arrived at Dongping Lane, and as long as you cross two more streets, you can reach Xiafu. A soldier beside Tian Bixiong said in a low voice: "General, our trip is too smooth, isn't it! The army of Xia Mansion is at this level?" Tian Bixiong lowered his voice and said: "Xia Yi's army is just some family army, and it can't be on the battlefield at all! However, don't take it lightly!" The soldier said, "Yes!"

Tian Bixiong gave a sign language backwards, leading the team to move forward, when suddenly, dozens of figures rushed out from all directions, surrounding Tian Bixiong and the others! Tian Bixiong pulled out the big knife from his back, exuding a powerful aura all over his body, and slashed at everyone in front of him. On the blade, a snow-white blade quickly appeared, turning into a streamer and flying out. This Tian Bixiong turned out to be a master of the innate realm! The eyes of the soldiers behind Tian Bixiong lit up, and the general of the innate realm turned out to be the innate realm!!

They are just the army of the secular world, and the best of them are equivalent to the first-class masters in the martial arts, and at most they are only in the realm of the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow, when have you ever seen the innate masters! Now, as soon as Tian Bixiong made a move, he immediately revealed his identity as an innate master, and the fear in the hearts of the soldiers behind him suddenly disappeared, and all the dragons and tigers fiercely killed these people who surrounded them.

Tian Bixiong's sword gang instantly flew closer, and one of them was holding a big knife, and the blade also exuded a snow-white sword gang, and instantly slashed towards the attacking knife gang. "Boom!" there was a bang, and the two swords disappeared at the same time. These people raised the weapons in their hands and killed Tian Bixiong and the others, and in an instant, the swords, swords, and guns swept over, and Tian Bixiong was shocked in their hearts, these people were all congenital masters!

At this moment, Tian Bixiong's eyes showed a trace of fierceness, and he instantly flew out of the encirclement and fled quickly into the distance, leaving behind his brother who lived and died with him! These soldiers showed a desperate look in their eyes, watching Tian Bixiong's figure disappear into the night little by little, and immediately gave up resistance and stopped struggling.

Tian Bixiong fled frantically in Mocheng, but after all, he was only a congenital master. In Mocheng, four hundred innate masters had already ambushed him in the place where he had to pass, just waiting for Tian Bixiong to throw himself into the net. For a while, Tian Bixiong was like a sheep into a group of tigers, and it didn't take long for him to be captured alive.

In the Xiafu prison, Tian Bixiong was unconscious, bound by a thick iron chain, and imprisoned in a specially built prison, which was specially built to specifically imprison innate masters! At this moment, a man with an ordinary face and a short stature was standing in front of Tian Bixiong, who was staring intently at Tian Bixiong's face, carefully modifying the human skin mask in his hand.

Inside the prison, Xia Yugao sat aside, protected by six innate masters, his eyes staring at the diminutive man holding the human skin mask. For a long time, the man did not modify it in his hand, and carefully dragged the mask he had made, and looked at it carefully, as if admiring a beautiful work of art. Seeing this, Xia Yu asked, "Thousand-faced man, how's the progress?" The thousand-faced man turned around, saluted Xia Yu respectfully, and said, "Eldest prince, everything is ready!" Xia Yu nodded and said to one of the attendants beside him: "Zhang Yun, you go and try." Zhang Yun's figure was almost the same as Tian Bixiong, he stepped forward and put the human skin mask on his face, only to feel that his face was cold for a while, and then looked in the mirror, he turned out to be Tian Bixiong's appearance!

Xia Yu stepped forward, watched carefully, and immediately clapped his hands and applauded: "Okay! The thousand-faced man really deserves his name!" This thousand-faced man is a doorman in the summer Lin Juxian Village, who is proficient in the way of disguise, and is now seconded by Xia Yu to complete this plan. The thousand-faced man bowed slightly to Xia Yu and said: "The eldest prince is polite, the king of food, naturally he has to bear the worries of the king, and now that the Xia Mansion is in trouble, it is naturally incumbent on him to do so!" Xia Yu stepped forward, picked up the thousand-faced man, and sent him out of the prison.

Xia Yu returned to the prison and said to Zhang Yun: "You go and change into Tian Bixiong's armor, go to the barracks of the 300,000 army, and act according to the plan!" Zhang Yun knelt on one knee and said, "Yes!"
