Chapter 562: Traitor
In this way, in front of Chen Sheng and the guards of the Three Thousand Marquis Mansion, Wu Qiutian separated those who had families from the queue one by one, and gave them enough spirit stones so that they could live and work in peace and contentment.
The others, all stayed, waiting for the instructions of the witch and the heavens.
The Great Xia Empire's national war has not happened since it was split by Xingtian's reckless man with an axe from the six continents, and the three forces have their own fears.
The battle of life and death is unattainable in the eyes of the soldiers who are accustomed to peace, and when war comes, no one can avoid it, and when they usually wear armor and appear in front of people, they can think that there will be today. Many people knew that the war would come sooner or later the moment they picked up the knife and gun, but compared to what they expected, this war was launched in advance because of the appearance of the little man Wu Qiutian.
Fighting is nothing more than the soldiers using their lives, the generals know strategy, the swords are sharp, and the armor is strong, but the bigger the war, the more people will be fought in the end.
No matter who started the war, the final outcome of the war was dismal, and the more people died, the less balance there was in the world.
War is never just.
Looking at the young face in front of him, Wu Qiutian instantly thought a lot, if this kind of unjust war is just for revenge, it is completely meaningless to continue, he will definitely not force him to stay, and if he is not willing to go, he will stay as a brother who follows him to death.
He knows he's selfish, but he's not a saint either.
"Brothers, from today onwards, the defenders of Pingyang City are no longer the army of the Hou Mansion, Wu Qiu Tian has established himself as the King of Breaking Heaven, and in the future, this desert will be the sphere of influence of my King of Breaking Heaven, whether it is the Emperor's Mo Yuwei or the Hou Mansion's guards, as long as they dare to invade my desert, they will all be killed!" Wu Qiu Tian sent those young people who were unwilling to waste their lives in the army to leave, and then shouted to the people who remained.
Tang San knelt on one knee and raised his hands up: "Please give his subordinates the vanguard long blade, and the last general is willing to lead his soldiers to guard every inch of land in the northwest of the Chuiyun Continent!"
Expressing loyalty is naturally indispensable to the captain of the guard, Qi Jiugang, who knelt on one knee and held up his hands in the same way: "Please give your subordinates the short blade of the guard, and the last general is willing to lead his soldiers to protect my king's left and right, and not let any Xiaoxiao get close." β
What surprised Wu Qiutian was that Lu Jian also chose to kneel on one knee at this time: "Please give the King of Heaven Breaking the position of the Lord of the Sunset City, and the last general will swear: Follow in the footsteps of the King of Heaven in this life, and the place where the blade of the King of Heaven is pointed to is the place where Lu Jian kills people." β
With these three people taking the lead, the others all knelt on one knee, and one by one knelt on the ground, and the huge school field was full of soldiers who swore allegiance to the death: "I will follow the King of Heaven to the death!"
This is only a small part, but 500,000 horses, and the rest are stationed in the vast desert, protected by a magic circle, and even if the sandstorm in the desert arrives, it will not be able to enter the camp.
Those soldiers naturally have someone to appease them, and there are these soldiers who have spread the word of mouth, but I am afraid that except for those soldiers who are really unable to go to the battlefield, most of them will stay in Pingyang City honestly for a chance to get promoted and make a fortune.
It took 15 days to stabilize the army's heart, and the 5.74 million Pingyang army left 390,000 people, all of whom were bound by their families, and a large part of them were people who were still alive after the Praetorian Guard.
Wu Qiutian didn't embarrass them, they were just some small people, and it didn't make any sense to embarrass them, but it would make the army unstable. Many of them did not have their homes in Pingyang City, and they traveled thousands of miles to serve as soldiers in Pingyang City, and the reason was simply that they were abandoned by the guards of the Hou Mansion.
The abandoned people, even if they betrayed the latest insight in Pingyang City, they would not get a chance to go back, not to mention that these people all had a lot of spirit stones in their hands, which were enough for them to leave the Chuiyun Continent and find a good place to spend three lives.
With such treatment, except for a very small number of people whose hearts are higher than the sky still want to go to the Hou Mansion Gaomi, most people will not choose to go against the Heaven Breaker.
Anyway, Wu Qiutian is not afraid that Tianao will know that he has become a thief, he calls himself the King of Breaking Heaven, but Tianao is just a marquis of the Mo Cangfeng, and in name, he is even bigger than Tianao.
Some of those who were dismissed returned to the Chaos Spirit Domain, and some chose to go to other continents, anyway, the Mo Yu Guards guarding the Demon Beast Canyon basically would not attack the common people, as long as they changed into the clothes of ordinary people and did not enter the camp guarded by the Mo Yu Guard, the Mo Yu Guard could turn a blind eye. The other group of life-killing guards belonging to the Prime Minister's Mansion would not embarrass the soldiers in Pingyang City who wanted to leave, and for the sake of Wu Qiutian's face, they were very happy to let them go.
After the news was transmitted back to the Chaos Spirit Domain, the Dan Ze Thunder Continent, on the contrary, after hearing his report, Hou Tianao's face could not see joy and anger, he just said lightly to Dan Ze: "Dan Ze, you don't care about other things, before my divine achievements are completed, as long as Mo Yuwei's people do not attack and enter the Chaos Spirit Domain." β
In his eyes, it seemed that no amount of life lost could compare to his miraculous achievements.
After coming out of the Chaos Valley, Dan Ze couldn't help but think: Maybe the path Wu Qiutian chose was not a wrong path, or maybe the path I chose was far from the path he chose.
He didn't know why he had this thought, it may be that he has seen Tianao disregard for life many times, or he may have been influenced by Mu Suiyu from his bones.
The big steward who cut off his feelings in order to take revenge did affect many people in the Hou Mansion, and even the old people who followed Tianao before Mu Suiyu entered the Hou Mansion were more or less influenced by him.
"Big brother, is Wu Qiu naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve?" Before returning to the Hou Mansion, on the way, he met Dan Qiusheng, who was idle all day long, and he asked impatiently when he saw Dan Ze.
Dan Ze shook the sleeve of his robe that was grabbed by Dan Qiusheng: "What kind of system is it to pull and pull in front of the public, he has now called himself the King of Heaven, and his name is even bigger than that of our marquis, don't mention this traitor in front of me in the future." β
"If you hadn't asked Chen Sheng to go to Pingyang City, how could he have rebelled. Dan Qiusheng, who was extremely dissatisfied with his eldest brother's answer, couldn't help but mutter.
Dan Ze suddenly grabbed Dan Qiusheng's shirt and said word by word: "I tell you, it is the order of the Hou Ye, not something I can dominate, I don't care how good your relationship with Wu Qiutian is, before the war is over, you will honestly stay in the Chaos Spirit Domain, if you dare to take half a step in the Spirit Domain, I will break your legs." β
Dan Qiusheng, who was still a little afraid of his eldest brother, stopped speaking, wrote all his unhappiness on his face, and then muttered away. Dan Ze looked at the lonely back of his younger brother who couldn't make it, and couldn't help but sigh.
However, his troubles were not over, and after a few steps, the road ahead was blocked again, and it was a person who could not be angry casually.
This person is none other than Rainbow Child, who has been in retreat for a long time.
Without saying a word, he asked, "Danze, did Wu Qiutian rebel?"
Dan Ze didn't dare to use his attitude towards Dan Qiusheng to Tianhong, and whispered: "Hui Gongzi, Wu Qiu Tianqi is reversed, and now he is guarding the two cities of Pingyang and Sunset, and he is the king on the ground." β
Tianhong's face was instantly sluggish, and he practiced in a tone of disbelief: "Impossible, he can't rebel, he can't be a traitor." β
Dan Ze didn't know what to say, so he had to say: "Childe, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, sometimes some people show loyalty in front of you, but in fact they are not loyal generals. β
Rainbow Gongzi walked backwards, obviously Wu Qiutian's betrayal was a big blow to him.
The war is still going on, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers are spilled on the battlefield every day, and the army of the Hou Mansion can no longer bear such great attrition, in order to complete the task, Dan Ze has to recruit troops in the name of the Hou Mansion.
People who were accustomed to peace were panicked by this conscription notice, and many people decided to leave the Weeping Cloud Continent, whether it was the territory controlled by the enemy or not, at least until now, there was no news of conscription from other continents, and Mo Yuwei would not attack ordinary people.
However, if Dan Ze does not move, he will move completely, and all the intersections will be guarded by the guards of the Hou Mansion, and it is basically impossible for anyone to leave the Hanging Cloud Continent.
The road in the northwest is not blocked, but the northwest is full of deserts, and it is basically impossible for ordinary people to pass through tens of thousands of miles of barrenness, but I am afraid that before they reach Pingyang City, they will already die of thirst and exhaustion in the desert.
Even so, all the people of the Chuiyun Continent who were blocked in their retreat still chose the road of death, and when the first people arrived in Pingyang City to tell Wu Qiutian about the situation outside, Wu Qiutian decisively ordered the Sky Breaker Cavalry to go deep into the desert and pick up those who wanted to come to Pingyang City.
Those who stay can be picked up for free, and those who don't want to stay only need to pay a certain amount of spirit stones to leave from the Demon Beast Canyon.
Mo Yuwei's side wanted the ordinary people on the Weeping Cloud Continent to leave, and they would definitely not stop these people from leaving.
The situation is very unfavorable to the Hou Mansion, and the foundation laid by Mu Suiyu for so many years has basically been tossed away by Danze in a few years.
But this can't be blamed on Danze, he may be able to be a charging general, but as a leader who controls the overall situation, there are still a lot of deficiencies after all.
Will the war end for a while and a half, Wu Qiutian decided to retreat and cultivate, this retreat, his goal is to break through the Jade Void Realm and enter the legendary Huayu Realm.
Vaguely, he had already sensed that the seven orifices in the dantian had begun to expand, and he was sure that he would be able to break through the Jade Void Realm in no time.
He is indeed a genius, he has touched the threshold in such a short time, in fact, he should be grateful to the bastard, if it weren't for the bastard to give him a taste of the loss of his beloved, he definitely wouldn't have realized it so quickly.
