Chapter 251: Before the Death Battle

According to the records in the history books, the wolf lord of the demon clan at that time, the monkey king Takuno was a great monster, he was brave and far-sighted. Only then was he able to unify the north and then destroy the Southern Jin Dynasty.

In later generations, I don't know if it is to cover up the incompetence of the Southern Jin Dynasty human race, or if it is a cause of historical nihilism, and the evaluation of the wolf lord of the demon clan is getting higher and higher. Even the wise scholar class, most of them believe that Monkey King Tuo is at least wise and brave, and can also rank in the top ten among the founding kings of the past dynasties.

It was with such an idea that the surrender faction went forward to join the demon clan one after another. Chen Jian probably had this idea, but in the process of getting along with Monkey King Tuo, he became more and more shaken.

Especially today, Monkey King Tuo actually wanted to kill the general when he heard the words, which made Chen Jian even more puzzled. He hurriedly admonished: "The wolf lord is slow, and Chang Sheng is a heavy general of our army, and it cannot be easily disposed of." also asked the wolf lord to summon Chang Sheng, confront him, and ask him what conspiracy he had with Ye Xingyuan. ”

Monkey King Tuo said impatiently: "What is a mere human general? Besides, since the Nanren already know that we are secretly training sailors, the significance of winning this strange soldier is much smaller, and it is not a pity to kill him!"

The life of the human race is like an ant in the eyes of the monsters, and the Baoju people on the side are in a cold sweat when they hear it, and the generals who often win such a position still say that they will kill them, so aren't their lives also between the words of the big monsters?

Chen Jian had no expression on his face, and only continued to persuade: "Having said that, he has to let him die to understand." Just let Marshal Helian take over the water division and level the south in one fell swoop with the strong troops of the demon clan. ”

He has also been prepared for a long time, and with this group of people who are familiar with history, it is impossible for a surprise attack on Linjing to be as easy as in history. After all, not everyone is a capitulation faction, they have long known about Chang Sheng's compilation and training of sailors, and in the face of conclusive evidence, even if the corrupt Southern Jin Dynasty court does not have any decent response, it will always take some precautions.

Therefore, after Chen Jian won the trust of the Monkey King. It was immediately suggested that in addition to the constant victory, the demon clan would train another sailor to prepare. Take this opportunity, regardless of whether Chang Sheng really has any objections, simply plan and just get rid of Chang Sheng and unify the sailors in one fell swoop.

Monkey King Tuo said absentmindedly: "Since you have an idea, then do what you say." The decree often prevailed, so that he immediately entered the palace and argued for fornicating with the southerners. ”

Chen Jian took the order and left. As soon as the will came to the place of victory, this hero did not hesitate to give up fame and wealth. With a few boats from his cronies, he went down the river and escaped into the sea. This is tantamount to not admitting himself, and as soon as the news reached the ears of the Monkey King, it made him even more furious.

When Ye Xingyuan heard the news in the Runzhou Water Village, he was overjoyed and said: "Chang Sheng is gone, I don't have to worry about it." ”

He calculated the time, and said: "Chang Sheng will pass through Runzhou in these three or five days, and he will definitely come to see me, and you will step up patrols on the river." Don't neglect your guests. ”

His adviser was stunned and said: "Ye Gongzi's letter ruined Chang Sheng's future, he will hate Gongzi deeply in his heart, how could he come to meet him? Although there are geniuses, they are not available, and the son must not have the heart to solicit. ”

Ye Xingyuan said with a smile: "In today's situation, it is inevitable to win and run away. My letter was just a fuse. He also understood very well in his heart, not so much hating me, but hating Monkey King Tuo and others more. As for solicitation. I don't dare to recruit this King of Jinghai, but he comes from the north, and he must know the reality of the demon clan's sailors, which is the key to defeating the enemy. ”

This discordant plan is not so much to take advantage of the stupidity of the Baoju people and the rigidity of the monkey king, but more importantly, the inevitability of the change of the situation. Chang Sheng's situation on the demon clan's side was already embarrassing, and as long as he pushed it lightly, he could force him to a dead end.

And Chang Sheng is a person who will repay him, how could he be willing to leave like this? If you want to take revenge on both sides, the best way is to let the demon clan and Ye Xingyuan both lose, now that the demon clan is strong and the human race is weak, no need for Ye Xingyuan to ask, Chang Sheng will take the initiative to provide information.

Sure enough, three days later, when the river wind was blowing, the wind and waves were endless, and a few clippers came through the waves, and they left a book for archery and said that they were often better than the border, and they were willing to spend a while with Ye Xingyuan in the heart of the river.

Ye Xingyuan went to the appointment with great emotion, took a big boat, and slowly sailed to the center of the river, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged man with a thin and tall figure and a gloomy face standing at the bow of the boat. Although standing on the stormy waves, it is like walking on the ground, and it is indeed the Jinghai King who is good at subjugating waves.

Ye Xingyuan arched his hand across the river and said solemnly: "But the commander is often in front of him? Now the demon clan has no way, forcing the general to hang up the crown and flee away." Since then, the rivers and seas have been stormy, doesn't the Admiral have the heart to retaliate?"

The person who came looked at Ye Xingyuan quietly for a long time, and then nodded and said, "I am Chang Sheng." Ye Xingyuan, you don't have to provoke me, I'm here today, first, to see what kind of character this young hero who ruined my plan, and second, to see if your water village can stop Helianxiong's Chishui Army. ”

Ye Xingyuan said happily: "It turns out that it was Helian Xiong who succeeded Admiral Chang, I don't know what the word 'Chishui' means?"

Although Chang Sheng was just a casual sentence, he had already revealed important information, and Ye Xingyuan was of course excited. Helian Xiong is a giant demon in the north, with vast magical powers, and he commands the demon cavalry to invade like fire, but he has a big flaw in commanding the water army.

Ye Xingyuan had already vaguely guessed something from the word "Chishui", but this battle was a matter of life and death for the human race, and it was also related to the final results of the examination, so of course he had to ask clearly.

Chang Sheng said indifferently: "The demon army crossed, killing people, blood flowed and pestle, the meaning of red water is naturally the meaning of the red water of the river." ”

Ye Xingyuan knew it in his heart and thanked him. Chang Sheng snorted coldly, turned the bow of the boat and left. The clipper boat was like the wind, rolling down with the torrent of the river, and soon disappeared without a trace.

"Old horseman!" Ye Xingyuan scolded and sighed: "I knew that this person must have magical powers on the water, even if it was an archer salvo just now, with the speed of his ship, we couldn't kill him, so we could only cheapen him." The demon clan has lost this person, our chance has come!"

Chang Sheng is ruthless and harms the people of the human race, of course Ye Xingyuan has the idea of getting rid of him. Although this person has no virtue, he is really good at water warfare, and the speed of the ship alone is beyond Ye Xingyuan's reach, so he can only let him go.

If he commanded the Demon Clan's water army, Ye Xingyuan thought to himself that he would not have a chance at all, but after replacing Helian Xiong, he would at least have a chance to fight.

"Whether this layout can succeed depends on the battle on the river. Ye Xingyuan knew that defeating the strong with the weak was always taking risks, and it was impossible to be foolproof, so he instructed his subordinates: "From today on, the banner of swearing to kill Helian Xiong will be hung on the water village, and then let the brothers who stay in the north rumor that Helian Xiong is cowardly and incompetent, so be sure to provoke him." ”

Helian Xiong, this monster, has a short temper and can't be provoked, and no one can pull him back when he gets angry. Only when he commands the naval army, can Ye Xingyuan have the opportunity to launch an early decisive battle and win a chance to win.

The subordinate hesitated and said: "Now that the Southern Jin Dynasty court has an alliance with the demon clan, so hang out the banner, I'm afraid that Helian Xiong didn't call, and the imperial court sailor who lives in the center of the river will come first."

Ye Xingyuan laughed, "It's exactly for them to come over, otherwise it's useless for these warship soldiers to stay in Jiangxin, it's better to cheapen me!"

The sailors of the Southern Jin Dynasty are also a big joke, when Chang Sheng went down the river and attacked Linjing, the sailors of Jiangxin Island only dared to watch the excitement from the sidelines, let alone participate in the war, even if they interfered in the rear. What is this kind of water master Ye Xingyuan afraid of him?

Sure enough, a few days later, the imperial court was afraid of the anger of its friends, so it issued twelve gold medals in a row. Ordered the 10,000 sailors stationed on Jiangxin Island to conquer Runzhou, crusade against Ye Xingyuan, and completely destroy the Runzhou Water Village to show the friendship of the Heavenly Empire.

Although there were hundreds of boats and tens of thousands of sergeants, they were untrained and timid as rats, so they launched an indiscriminate attack on the Runzhou Water Village.

Ye Xingyuan crossed the river with iron chains, and easily trapped these ships. With a strong bow and crossbow, the commander of the other side cried and shouted for his mother to surrender, and obediently presented hundreds of boats, arrows, weapons, and soldiers, and conscientiously completed the work of the captain of the transport brigade.

Ye Xingyuan's soldiers collected Jiang Xinshui Division without blood, and immediately remixed it, leaving behind those who dared to fight. All the cowards rushed home, and together with the old department, they integrated three thousand elite soldiers and waited for the attack of the demon clan.

The news of Runzhou Water Village's oath to kill Helian Xiong spread to the north, and this monster was really angry, and he didn't care that the water division had not been fully trained, so he led an army of 100,000 people down the river, and set up a water village in Baiyaji opposite Runzhou, preparing to destroy Runzhou in one fell swoop and take Linjing easily.

The Southern Jin Dynasty still did not wake up to this point, and even sent Liu Jingzong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to express condolences to the labor army, saying that Runzhou, a handful of thieves, was doing its own thing, and the official would never agree with their thoughts and actions, and the two countries were friendly for a long time.

Helian Xiong laughed, he simply slaughtered Liu Jingzong's sacrificial chess, and made it clear that the chariots and horses were going to destroy the Southern Jin Dynasty, which made the court frightened, knowing that it was time to see life and death, he gritted his teeth and turned his head to send reinforcements and money and food to Ye Xingyuan, only hoping that he could block the demon army.

Ye Xingyuan laughed and laughed, the more reinforcements the better, he accepted it unceremoniously, but he couldn't help but have thoughts in his heart, such as "This kind of dim court is not as good as perishing".

However, even if the imperial court wants to perish because of the change of heaven, it should not be destroyed in the hands of foreign races. Ye Xingyuan knew that the big war was imminent, so he shook his spirits and lectured to the new and old generals and soldiers in the water village overnight.

His first sentence opened with a clear meaning: "Ladies and gentlemen, I, Ye Xingyuan, am just a scholar. He is young, he has not attained the path of saints, his supernatural powers are limited, and he has no power to restrain chickens, so he will not fight at all. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a buzz below. Everyone knows that Ye Xingyuan is telling the truth, but there are still many people who have hopes for him before. Now that Ye Xingyuan has brutally revealed the truth, the already demoralized generals feel even more depressed. (To be continued.) )
