Chapter 108: Victory (Finale)
After the two sides met the salute, Duan Xing asked directly: "General Banonka, can the army go to battle?"
"Anytime, Your Highness. Bannonka replied respectfully. But in his heart, he thought: "I heard that the Five Poisons Sect has a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still have dealings with these people." Do you want to tell Bixia and King Zhennan about this and let them know?"
No matter how high Duan Xing's skill is, it is not so high that he can see through people's hearts at a glance, and he doesn't know what thoughts Banongka is thinking in his heart. Since the army could set off, he said to Banunka: "In this case, immediately gather your troops and set out for Sayelang." ”
Bannonka was taken aback, so quickly, and asked hesitantly, "Doesn't Your Highness need to take a rest?"
Duan Xing smiled and said, "The soldiers are very fast, General Banunka should quickly go and gather the soldiers." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. Banungka saluted and hurried out.
Two days later, the troops moved into the woods near Sayerang's house.
"General Banonka, has Lewang confessed?" Duan Xing asked flatly.
"Back to Your Highness, according to the spies sent by the last general. The defender of the Sayalang Mansion only sent a wave of messengers to report to the king of Jiaozhi State, and the content was only about Liewang's ill intentions, his intention to rebel, and his capture alive by Ritivan, and it did not involve my Dali Kingdom. Banongka looked at Duan Xing and said respectfully, but from Duan Xing's face, Banongka couldn't see any expression that could reflect Duan Xing's inner activities.
Duan Xing nodded and said, "In this way, Liewang hasn't told us yet. Fortunately, the people who were sent to Levan at that time were slave soldiers who didn't know anything. Otherwise, even if Levan didn't say anything, the soldiers would confess. It seems that more slave soldiers from other countries will be used in the future. ”
"Your Highness is very right. Banonka duly slapped a small sycophant past.
"Elder Zuo, I'm going to bother you this time. Duan Xing arched his hand and said with a smile at the three people of the Five Poisons Sect.
Elder Zuo smiled and replied, "Your Highness is too polite. Not to mention the cooperation between His Highness and our sect leader, even if His Highness gives us so many silver taels for the three old immortals this time, we have to solve problems for His Highness, otherwise I am sorry for His Highness so much white silver, with silver, we can do many things again. "Elder Zuo, who is already ugly. Smile at this point. The wrinkles on their faces trembled with smiles, and some even squeezed together, eager to make people evil. But Duan Xing pretended not to see it, and his face was still smiling as before. Bannonka next to him was greatly impressed: "Your Highness." It's amazing. ”
"The general. Please send someone familiar with the city to take the three of us inside. Elder Zuo said politely to Bannonka.
sub-hours.
The Green Snake Envoy appeared in front of Duan Xing like a ghost, and said with some flattery: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Elder Zuo has completed the task. During the day, the water sources and barracks in the city were sprinkled with the unique poison of our Five Poison Sect. When the concubine had just set off. Elder Zuo is urging the Smoke of Silence to Destroy the Soul. Even if someone doesn't drink the water source in the city, as long as they inhale a little bit of Elder Zuo's poisonous smoke, they will ensure that their whole body is sore, weak and unable to move, and they will be slaughtered by others. ”
Why the Green Snake Envoy would flatter Duan Xing has her own reasons. The Five Poisons Sect is divided according to power, with the sect leader at the top, then the left and right elders, the five poison envoys below, then the four ghosts, and then the numerous sect members. Although the Green Snake Envoy is already a high-level figure in the Five Poisons Sect, she is always worried about it, for fear that others will poison her and secretly harm her. She wasn't the only one, in the Five Poisons Sect, everyone was like this, except for the leader of the Five Poisons Sect. Each successive Five Poisons Sect Leader is directly appointed by the previous Sect Master. Therefore, the Left and Right Elders, the Five Poison Envoys, and the Four Ghosts are the most competitive positions in the Five Poisons Sect.
Now because of the task, the Green Snake Envoy has climbed the big tree of Duan Xing, and he began to make his own calculations in his heart, if she can break away from the Five Poisons Sect and attach herself to Duan Xing, she will not ask for anything else, and she will not have to worry about others poisoning and assassinating herself all day long, so that she can live for many more years. Considering the strict rules within the Five Poisons Sect, even if he couldn't be attached to Duan Xing, if Duan Xing said a few good words about himself to the sect leader and supported himself a little, the rest of the sect would not dare to casually assassinate him. With such a purpose, the green snake made him a little older, but when he had the opportunity to be alone with Duan Xing, he would still pretend to be a twenty-eight woman to speak, just to make Duan Xing feel more good about himself.
Duan Xing knew the flattery of the green snake in his heart, and he didn't say anything about it. Since the other party is like this, when Duan Xing explains the task, the other party will inevitably do his best, and Duan Xing is also happy to continue to exist in this state. If Zuihou can achieve his own goals, it is not a big deal to say a good word or two for the other party.
"Elder Zuo poisoned the virus during the day, and no one has found out until now?" Duan Xing asked.
The Green Snake Envoy patiently explained: "Your Highness, Elder Zuo's poison under the sun is the famous 'Midnight Soul Breaking' that we taught. No matter what time of day this medicine is consumed, it can only start to slowly emit its power after midnight. Those who are poisoned will be listless, tired, and confused, like the walking dead. ”
Duan Xing asked curiously: "Listening to the names of these two poisons, they are the most poisonous things in the world, but how can they not cause death?"
The Green Snake Envoy replied with a flattering smile: "Back to Your Highness, this is Elder Zuo's order to consider His Highness's future great cause, and he can't kill more, which is a loss of peace in heaven." Therefore, the formula of the medicine has been slightly changed, and if you want human lives, Your Highness can control the city later, and then order the soldiers to kill them one by one. ”
"Then what effect can these two poisons have if they are according to the original prescription?"
"'Smoke of Silence' will cause ulcers, abscesses, and rot all over the body. "Midnight Soul Breaking" will make people disappear without realizing it, and the blood in the whole body will be exhausted and they will die. The Green Snake Envoy said with a slight smugness.
Duan Xing felt a little uncomfortable in his heart when he heard this, and he only felt that poison was really too terrifying, and it was not as pleasant as killing with a real knife and a real gun. But now that there is a request for others, he didn't say much, and the other party kindly changed the formula to reduce the medicinal properties, if he said this and that, he couldn't help but chill the other party's heart. Showing a smile, Duan Xing said kindly, "Well, Elder Zuo has a heart. ”
The Green Snake Envoy said softly: "Your Highness, the recipe of "Silent Soul Snatcher" was re-concocted by the concubine. Here is the antidote to "Smoke of the Soul-Destroyer", melt in the water, let the soldiers drink a bowl of it, and it's fine. ”
Duan Xing smiled and said, "I also want to thank the green snake to make it more troublesome." ”
The green snake pursed his lips and smiled, but said no more. The Green Snake Envoy is only thirty-six this year, but because of his cultivation of poisonous skills, he looks like a woman who is almost fifty years old. The skin is dull and rough, and the face is sickly gray.
"General Bannonca!"
"The last general!"
"Half an hour later, attack Sayalang Mansion!"
"Commanded. ”
Two hours later, Duan Xing's army took full control of Sayerang Mansion without bloodshed. also rescued the humanoid and dying Levan who had been tortured.
Banongka was once again impressed by Duan Xing's ability.
Within a few days, Duan Xing received a secret decree from Emperor Baoding and was told that Gao Taiming was coming.
"General Bannonka, I think we should slow down at this time and see what moves Gao Taiming's side has, and then decide on our next strategic layout. Duan Xing said calmly.
"Your Highness, but we can't hide the matter of our capture of one prefecture and two counties in Jiaozhi Country for long. Recently, the scouts reported that because the policy of only entering and not leaving the three places was too strange, the king of Cochin had sent three separate men to find out the situation. Although these horses have been captured by us and delayed for us for a little time, I am afraid that after a while, it will be the army of the Cochin Kingdom that will come to explore the situation again. The last general thought that since His Highness wanted to delay the pace of the attack, it was better to mobilize all the troops of Dingnan Province at this time and garrison Sayalang Province. In this way, no matter what His Highness wants to do next, he can advance and retreat freely. (To be continued......)
