Chapter 965: Shaokang Sacrifice Heaven Sudden Change
In the summer of the fifty-fourth year of Han Xun, he was besieged by hundreds of thousands of troops under the command of Han Xuan, the second prince of the Great Han Dynasty. After a tragic fierce battle, he finally succeeded in breaking out of the encirclement, and retreated to the south of the Jiangnan that had been completely mastered by Shaokang with the Shaokang soldiers, and the second prince Han Qi has been closed since returning from the battlefield, some people say that they have seen Han Qi being pointed at the throat by a white-bearded old man with a sword, although I don't know why the old man did not kill him, but Han Qi has also left a shadow in his heart, and the screams from the Han Qi Mansion from time to time every night seem to confirm this.
After this battle, Han Xun did not punish Han Xun wantonly, but ordered him to think about it behind closed doors, and the folk speculated that Han Xun could not bear to punish his son, after all, tiger poison does not eat children, but the attendants in the palace knew that Han Xun did not want to punish Han Xun, but because he had no time to punish Han Xun at all, since the burial of Yu Jizi, Han Xun seemed to have changed a person, all day long, and always locked himself in the imperial study all day and did not come out, even the order to let Han Xun think about it behind closed doors was issued by Queen Chunhu in his name。
On the other hand, Fu **, who returned to the land south of the Yangtze River with Shaokang, was not immediately disbanded by Jiang Yihuai, it stands to reason that the purpose of Fu ** is to revive the Great Xia Dynasty, and now the orthodox Shaokang of the Great Xia Dynasty is in front of him, Jiang Yihuai should immediately dissolve the Fu **, will be restored** Merging into Shaokang's command is, so that after the two are united, their power will definitely increase greatly, plus they have just successfully escaped from the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of thousands of troops of the Great Han Dynasty, as long as they operate it well, they can definitely win huge prestige, so what is Jiang Yihuai's plan?
In fact, Jiang Yihuai is very aware of the benefits of the merger of the two armies, and he also agrees with the merger of the two armies in his heart, but he knows very well that the timing is still a little lacking at this time, because their strength has not yet reached its peak, and it is not enough to confront the Great Han Dynasty head-on. The two major forces of Shaokang are just at odds with each other, so that they can buy some time and make final preparations for their great cause of recovering the country.
In the spring of the fifty-fifth year of Han Xun, after nearly a year of preparation, Jiang Yihuai and Shaokang both thought that the time was ripe, after a few months of recuperation and recruitment, the strength of Shaokang's side had recovered to more than 200,000, although it was still very small compared to the million army of the Great Han Dynasty, but as long as it was properly manipulated, it was not impossible to overthrow the Great Han Dynasty, so Jiang Yihuai, who was known as Bo Mi, directly announced that he would return to Shaokang and would support Shao Xingxing the Great Xia Dynasty.
And on the same day, Shaokang also announced in public that he officially became the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, and would overthrow the rule of Han Xun and restore the glory of the Great Xia Dynasty as his own responsibility. The three forces of the Eight Great Sects, which were regarded as henchmen by Han Xun, finally gathered together and prepared to launch a final attack on Han Xun's rule.
The entire Great Han Dynasty, no, the whole world thought that Han Xun would be furious when he heard the news, and then he would send a large army to exterminate them again, but he didn't expect that this time Han Xun was unusually calm, he didn't say anything after learning about it, and it was not much different from when he didn't know, as if he hadn't heard the news, and he didn't show even a trace of wanting to send troops, which made everyone in the world a little confused.
"What does Han Xun want to do?" Jiang Yihuai under the moonlight stroked his beard and frowned and said, Jiang Yihuai had studied Han Xun's style of doing things, and he found that Han Xun's style of doing things was four words 'simple and rude', Han Xun didn't like to use intrigue and tricks, but liked that kind of simple and straightforward approach, plus Han Xun didn't like others to disobey his own ideas, so he had the name of Han Xun's tyrant, so after finding out that Han Xun actually ignored their actions, Jiang Yihuai felt a little bottomless in his heart.
"No matter what Han Xun wants to do, it is imperative to revive the Great Xia Dynasty!" Shao Kang said with a stern face, although he was also a little worried in his heart, but Shao Kang knew that now that the arrow was ready to be sent, no matter how much worry was useless, it was better to put aside these worries and focus on the future road, only in this way could they achieve the final victory, Jiang Yihuai, who heard Shao Kang's words, nodded with a look of relief.
"It's not early, His Royal Highness the Prince, please go to bed early, tomorrow ...... It's going to be a busy day!" Jiang Yihuai said and turned to leave, after Shaokang saw Jiang Yihuai's figure leave, he said that he looked at the moon in the sky again, and after a long time, Shaokang sighed slowly, I don't know whether Shaokang sighed for the uncertain future, or sighed for the end of his relatively idle days, all in all, this sigh contains a lot of feelings.
The next day, a more solemn ceremony was held as scheduled, Shaokang, the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, personally held the ceremony of worshipping the sky, Shaokang's military officials, and the masters of the eight factions all attended the ceremony, plus the envoys of the country and the country of Yu who had already received the message from Shaokang, this ceremony can be regarded as quite large-scale, and even the fantasy who has lost his memory is accompanied by Wanling to attend the ceremony.
"The auspicious time has come, and the sacrifice to heaven begins!" With the shouts of the ceremonial officials, the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens finally began, Shao Kang wore a prince's golden robe embroidered with eight five-clawed golden dragons and slowly ascended the altar, he held a huge scroll in both hands, this scroll is the genealogy of the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty, although the Great Xia Dynasty has been passed down for only a few generations, and the royal family of the past dynasties together is only more than ten people, but don't forget that the family line of the Great Xia Dynasty is inherited from one of the three emperors, the human emperor Xuanyuan, and the Xuanyuan family has many children, plus so many years of branches, it is not strange to have such a huge family tree。
"Tell the heavens to worship the ancestors, the Great Xia will prosper!" Shaokang said with a stern face, he did not say a long list of words like others sacrificed to the sky, but only said this sentence, but at the moment when he finished saying this sentence, the power of the dynasty that belonged to the Great Xia Dynasty that had not yet dissipated began to gather continuously with Shaokang as the center, and the golden dragon of luck belonged to the dragon head part of the Great Xia Dynasty, and suddenly opened his mouth to let out a silent dragon groan. The people who watched the qi all issued a common sigh, the Great Xia Dynasty is about to be revived!
"Hehe, it's a good job!" Jiang Yihuai stroked his beard and smiled, his laughter also represented the voice of everyone, they are all high-level cultivators, naturally they can feel the changes in the underworld more or less, they know very well in their hearts that as long as this sacrifice ceremony is completed smoothly, the luck of the Great Xia Dynasty will converge on Shaokang, and at that time, with the help of the dynasty's luck, they will also have the confidence to fight with the Great Han Dynasty, how can this make everyone unhappy?
"The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony must be stopped!" A figure in the darkness said viciously, since some people want the completion of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, naturally there are people who do not want the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony to be completed, and this figure in the darkness is one of them, I saw that he took advantage of the opportunity when no one noticed him, stretched out his finger to Shao Kang on the altar and pointed at the sky, and a wave that was difficult to see with the naked eye shot out from his finger, and its target was Shao Kang's heart!
"Be careful, someone has a sneak attack!" Master Xuansu, who had a keen perception, immediately reminded everyone, and at the same time waved his hand to send out a black and white fluctuation that deflected the invisible fluctuation, and the figure in the darkness saw that the sneak attack failed and did not give up, he knew that he had just made a move that had exposed his position, so he simply jumped out of the darkness and attacked Shaokang again in the air, and the pitch-black mana turned into countless black feathers and shot at Shaokang.
"Don't think about it!" This time, everyone who was prepared shot to block this person's attack, although the number of black feathers was extremely large, but under the moves of a group of masters, it was impossible to break into the range of the altar, but at this moment, the black figure suddenly showed six black wings behind him, he shook the six wings behind him, and the whole person rushed into the altar at an unimaginable speed, but when everyone reacted, it was too late, and the person had already come to the place three meters behind Shaokang!
"Die, Shaokang!" The man condensed into a two-and-a-half-meter-long spear with dark mana, and stabbed it at Shaokang's back, only to see that the dark spear was burning with a raging black flame, although it did not directly touch this flame, but anyone who saw it would understand very well that once Shaokang was pierced through his chest by this black spear, even if he would not die immediately under the injury, he would be turned to ashes by this pitch-black flame!
"Ang!" A dragon roar suddenly sounded, followed by a very harsh sound of metal collision, the face of the black figure suddenly changed greatly, only to see that Shao Kang's body had been surrounded by a golden air flow at some point, and countless golden crystals could be seen floating in this golden air flow, and it was this golden crystal that turned into a golden barrier to block the tip of the dark spear at the moment when the dark spear was about to hit Shao Kang, and also reflected the identity of the black figure.
"Six-winged fallen angel, you are the Angel of Death Samael in the mouth of Yufel!" Shao Kang turned his head slightly and said, and this person who attacked Shao Kang and had six black wings on his back was not Samael, so why did Samael suddenly appear and sneak attack Shao Kang? Is the Ephele in Shao Kang's mouth the 'God's Virtue' Jephael? What is the sudden golden air current? We will talk about it in the next chapter.
