Chapter 297 Slaying the King of Wei (nearly 20000 words super chapter)
The Allied Forces of the Western Regions took the lead in launching the charge.

In their view, without the protection of the strong city wall, these Central Plains people are as vulnerable as a group of two-legged sheep.

As long as they launch a wave of charge, they can disperse all Anxi's troops.

The limited space in the city is not conducive to the cavalry charge, otherwise their offensive can be more fierce.

Liu Lin's eyes widened with anger, and the flames of hatred almost filled his eyes.

Street fighting is the most tragic, because there are not many changes in the limited space.

"General Protector, they seem to be avoiding Mo Dao Shou."

"Um…"

Liu Lin also realized this.

The enemy deliberately avoided Mo Dao Shou during the charge.

These allied forces of the Western Regions have been with the Anxi Army for a long time, and they have a very clear understanding of the situation of the Anxi Army.

They knew very well that Mo Dao Shou was the elite of the Anxi army's elite, the trump card of the trump card.

Their strength is not enough to fight against Mo Dao Shou, so avoiding the strongest existence of the enemy army and attacking the weak link is the most suitable choice at the moment.

At the moment when the soldiers met, they could only hear the clang of the swords, the thud of the armor, and the roar from the lungs.

At this moment they fight each other like wild animals, following the most primitive principles of nature.

Survival of the fittest, the jungle of the jungle.

War never sympathizes with the weak, and the weak will always be the loser.

Almost everyone's emotions were completely ignited in the crazy roar.

There are no cowards at this moment, and everyone is thinking about how to kill each other as much as possible.

At this time, tactics are not important, what is important is courage.

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, and only the brave can survive to the end.

"Destroy the enemy, destroy the enemy!"

Mo Dao Shou naturally noticed the strangeness of the enemy.

The enemy is deliberately avoiding them, but they will not let the enemy do what they want.

Although their movement is not as flexible as other robes, they still try their best to rush towards the area where the enemy troops gather.

A Mo Dao hand held up the Mo Dao and slashed down fiercely.

This powerful knife cut directly on the neck of a Hu Bing, and then slid down, obliquely cutting the Hu Bing from the Western Regions into two pieces.

Hu Bing from the Western Regions couldn't believe that he had been chopped into two sections until he died, his eyes were wide open like cowbells.

The Mo Dao hand swung the Mo Dao again, and this time he directly chopped off the head of a Hu Bing.

Blood gushed out from the neck like a fountain.

The headless corpse took a few steps forward by inertia, and then fell to the ground with a plop, kicking up countless dust.

The head immediately rolled to the ground, was trampled on, and kicked back and forth like a sepak takraw ball.

The blood of Anxi soldiers was ignited, and the sandbar soldiers were not cowards.

Their duty is to guard Shazhou City, even if the enemy has already entered the city, they will not hesitate at all.

...

...

The ferocity of the Anxi Army far exceeded He Yanwoer's imagination.

The city gate fell, and the enemy attacked at night.

Under such circumstances, they can still remain calm, line up to meet the enemy, and go all out in bloody shopping, which is really admirable.

If the opponent is not an enemy, Heyan Wall even wants to take them under his command.

It's a pity that the Anxi Army is the enemy after all.

It is the enemy who can only show respect at most, and finally kills him.

Under the order of Heyan Wall, the coalition forces of the 36 countries in the Western Regions launched a more rapid offensive.

As for the defected Liangzhou Army and the Shazhou Army, they began to fight against each other.

The Shazhou army has always hated these white-eyed wolf traitors.

If these "Liangzhou reinforcements" hadn't been let into the city, Shazhou City wouldn't have been broken so easily.

"Brothers, kill these uncooked things!"

"Yes, they are not worthy of being soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so take off that layer of skin on them!"

"Kill them!"

Hand-to-hand combat, hand-to-hand bloody battles.

This is naturally cruel.

No one can guarantee that they will not die in battle.

The best way to save your life is to step forward without fear.

According to the experience summed up by the veterans, the more cowardly people on the battlefield, the faster they die.

On the contrary, those brave and fearless soldiers will live to the end.

Because of their fearless temperament, all opponents who meet their eyes will be shocked by their temperament.

In this case, the natural combat effectiveness will attenuate, and even flee.

It is extremely stupid to give your back to the opponent on the battlefield, because the opponent can easily catch up with you and swing the long knife to harvest.

Even if a knife does not hurt the vitals and kills people on the spot, a big gash with a knife will cause bleeding.

In the absence of timely medical treatment on the battlefield, most soldiers will die due to excessive blood loss.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army showed fear.

It was a kind of fear expressed from the bottom of my heart, and I couldn't fake it.

"Why are these guys so desperate?"

"Nonsense, if you lose the battle, your head will be cut off and hung on the city wall as a public display. If it were you, you would do your best."

This battle is really different for both sides.

If the Liangzhou army loses, they can withdraw from the city and start all over again.

If the Shazhou Army loses, all that awaits them is death.

Facing the fear of death gave them incomparable courage, all the soldiers gathered together and declared war on the Liangzhou army.

Two soldiers wrestled together.They had already lost their weapons, so they fought with bare hands.

They have the same color of skin and hair, and they all look like people from the Central Plains.It is likely that they are still the country party.

But at this moment they are enemies, enemies who must fight to the end.

To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself.

This is what the generals often say.

They are cited as creeds.

If you want to survive and avoid being killed, you have to learn how to kill.

This is the first criterion of battlefield survival.

They hit with their fists, with their heads, and with their teeth.

They obey their survival instincts and survive like a wild animal.

Wild animals hunt with sharp teeth.

Although their teeth and claws have degenerated and are no longer suitable for fighting, this is still the simplest and most direct way to kill an opponent without a weapon.

"go to hell!"

"Damn you!"

None of these two soldiers gave up the hope of living. They frantically tried to survive and tried their best to do so.

...

...

The battle lasted for several hours, from dark to dawn.

During the entire combat process, the dominant side changed several times, sometimes the Anxi Army and the Shazhou Army were dominant, and sometimes the Western Regions Alliance Army and the Liangzhou Army were dominant.

But in the end, the Shazhou Army and Anxi Army were more resilient.

With only one breath left on both sides, they finally persisted to the end and defeated their opponents.

The defeated Allied Army of the Western Regions and Liangzhou Army had no choice but to escape from the city in embarrassment.

"Damn, how can these guys be so good at fighting, I was careless."

He Chun held the rein of the horse with one hand, spat out thick yellow phlegm, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

They seized the first opportunity, but they played a good hand of cards to pieces, and finally lost.

In other words, no one can accept it.

Also unacceptable is Heyan Wall.

As the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, it was he who repeatedly insisted that all the armies stay in the end.

They wanted to make a big vote, but the result was not satisfactory.

They were only one step away from victory, but were finally driven out by Anxi's army.

This humiliation made Heyan Wall find it difficult to explain to the coalition forces.

"No, we can't just let it go!"

The anger in Heyan Wall's eyes was about to burst out.

"Revenge, you must have revenge!"

"Yes, General, we still have a chance for revenge."

He Chun swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said following the other party's words: "They are now at the end of their strength, and they are only hanging on with one breath. We only need to kill one more carbine at that time, and we will definitely be able to take Shazhou City."

Heyan Wall did not immediately respond.

The silence made He Chun feel a little embarrassed.

After a long time, Heyan Woerfang cleared his throat and said, "Maybe we should change our thinking."

"Change your mind?"

He Chun was taken aback for a moment: "The general might as well make it clear."

Good guy, co-authors are playing charades here.

"Since the sandbar is a hard bone, we don't have to chew on it."

Heyan Walton paused and said, "Let's go around and go straight to Liangzhou."

"Go straight to Liangzhou..."

He Chun read it aloud and didn't know what to say for a while.

This was totally out of his plan.

But the failure of the sandbar project was also unexpected.

If all goes well, there is of course no need to change plans.

But now that the action has failed, only by changing the plan can it be possible to achieve the original goal.

Hanging from a tree is never a wise choice.

"Let me see..."

The reason why He Chun hesitated was because he did not possess arbitrary power.

This time he was leading the army as an acting coach.

In other words, his power was given to him by King Wei.

But the king of Wei only asked him to join forces with the Hu people in the Western Regions to take the sandbar.Then send troops to Liangzhou.

But now the situation has changed, and they went straight to Liangzhou with the Western Regions Allied Forces without taking down the sandbar.

The gap between the two is still quite large.

Does he have the right to make his own decisions?
Will His Royal Highness King Wei blame him afterwards?

These are all issues that He Chun must consider.

As Wei Wang's retainer, stalwart, and confidant, He Chun is deeply branded by Wei Wang.

He and the king of Wei are both prosperous, and both are lost.

So what he had to consider was not only whether King Wei would blame him, but also whether King Wei's great cause would be affected by this temporary decision.

To put it bluntly, this is the side of the Qing emperor, which is essentially a rebellion.

If it fails, the family will have to be ransacked.

Thinking of this, He Chun instinctively shivered.

"What if we are caught between two ends?"

He Chun raised a concern.

The hidden danger of not taking Shazhou is that after they go to Liangzhou, the Shazhou Army and Anxi Army are likely to react, and then send their troops eastward to encircle them with the Chang'an Army.

Although Liangzhou was in the hands of King Wei, at that time, Liangzhou would be surrounded by two sides.

If Shazhou is won, the situation will be completely different.

They can advance, attack and retreat.

A small difference can set off a completely different chain reaction.

"If you are really worried, you can leave a small army to hold them back."

Heyan Wall seemed a little impatient, and waved his hand: "Now they have just experienced a big battle, and they are already fighting."

After a pause, Heyan Wall continued: "As long as they see troops stationed outside the city, they dare not leave the city rashly."

"But paper can't contain fire after all."

He Chun sighed: "Of course they won't come out in full force, but as long as they send out some scouts, they will be able to achieve the effect of investigation. If they find that we are just bluffing, then..."

"If you look forward and look backward, you can't achieve great things!"

Heyan Wall was completely angry now.

"This won't work, and that won't work. How can you be satisfied? How about I lead the coalition army back to the Western Regions, and you return to Liangzhou, and we'll break up at this point!"

He Yanwool's threat made He Chun startled.

He hurriedly said: "Uh, I have something to say, I have something to say. General, I will follow your orders and we will send troops directly to Liangzhou."

He Chunxin said that he must not offend He Yanwoer now, he must be steady.

The best way is naturally to follow the other party, what the other party says is what.

He Yanwoer thought to himself that this is more or less the same.

These Central Plains people are really a bunch of cheap bones.

Give them a little good looks, and they will push their noses on their faces.

You have to yell at them to make them understand their identity and status.

Heyan Wall is now looking forward to going to Liangzhou.

In his opinion, going to Liangzhou is not the purpose, he just regards Liangzhou as a springboard.

His real goal is Chang'an.

He only heard about Chang'an from merchants traveling on the Silk Road.

In the minds of these merchants, Chang'an City is an extremely prosperous city with gold everywhere.

All you need to do is take a chisel and chisel the ground to make a gold brick.

The population of Chang'an City is more than 200 million, which is half of the total population of the 36 countries in the Western Regions.

It is difficult for Heyan Wall to imagine how big a city can be to squeeze so many people.

The city must have been unimaginably rich.

As long as the wealth in this city is plundered, they will not only be able to dominate the Western Regions, but even share the world with the Great Zhou.

Cooperation with King Wei?

The premise of cooperation is based on the fact that the combat power of both sides is equal.

If their strength far surpassed that of the other, cooperation would naturally be unnecessary.

As for credit...

In Heyan Wall's view, it is not worth mentioning at all.

History books will only record the strong, and will only record their great achievements according to the wishes of the strong.

The historians will erase the dishonorable parts and leave only the essence.

Those who achieve great things are not careful about the little things.

As long as he can aspire to the Central Plains, Heyan Wall will not hesitate to bear the infamy for a short time.

And his stupid Wei Wang and his confidants must have no idea.

...

...

From Shazhou to Liangzhou, head east all the way, passing through Guazhou on the way.

After the painful experience of attacking Shazhou, the coalition forces of the 36 countries in the Western Regions and the Liangzhou Army naturally learned a lot of wisdom, and lost the desire to attack Guazhou.

Both He Yanwoer and He Chun are very clear that their best choice now is to keep a low profile and keep a low profile.

Try not to attract the attention of the troops stationed along the way.

After all, if the Guazhou garrison really realized something and reported to the Shazhou Army in time, the army there would also realize that the main forces of the Western Regions Allied Forces and Liangzhou Army were no longer in Shazhou.

At that time, the Shazhou Army sent troops to attack and gathered with the Guazhou Army to attack from inside and outside. At that time, the Western Regions Allied Forces and Liangzhou Army will be in a very difficult situation.

They don't want to be crushed when they are doing well.

At least before arriving in Liangzhou, keeping a low profile is the best choice.

As for the choice after arriving in Liangzhou, it depends on the specific situation.

Liangzhou City, Wei Wangfu.

During the banquet, Wei Wang Li Lian delivered a speech as the absolute protagonist.

The core content of the speech is to welcome the imperial consolation team to Hexi and Liangzhou City.

As the vassal prince stationed in Liangzhou, he will give the most warm reception to the officials of the imperial consolation group.

The officials of the imperial consolation team represented by Wu Zhenqing expressed their gratitude to King Wei.

The scene was very embarrassing.

Zhao Xun really hates this kind of business bragging, but this is the most common thing in the court.Even if you don't want to accept it, there is nothing you can do.

Zhao Xun can only be himself, as for others, he can't control them.

"Great Zhou Shangwu, this king also has the determination to guard the border for the emperor. Since everyone has come to Hexi, it is natural to appreciate the characteristics of Hexi."

After finishing speaking, Wei Wang Li Lian clapped his hands, and saw two swordsmen trotting through the moon gate.

"See His Royal Highness King Wei."

"Well, let's perform a sword dance for everyone."

Aristocrats obviously prefer swords to knives.

Because knives are rude and barbaric in their eyes, compared with swords, they are much more elegant.

Sword dancing is an art form that nobles like to appreciate most.

After the two swordsmen saluted King Wei, they began to dance their swords.

If it was Zhao Xun from before, maybe he would take a serious look at it.

But now that he is already a cultivator, and he is still a cultivator of high grade, he naturally doesn't have much interest in this kind of pediatric sword dancing.

The two swordsmen were dancing, and one of the swordsmen suddenly jumped up and stabbed at Zhao Xun's position.

With such a sudden change, the guests at the banquet were shocked for a while.

But Zhao Xun didn't panic at all.

Because for a sixth-grade cultivator, the opponent's movements are too slow, Zhao Xun is like experiencing slow motion.

Relying on this speed to kill me?It's kind of funny, right?

Zhao Xun sneered, he didn't even need to summon the special protective cover of the sixth grade, that would be equivalent to killing a chicken with a bull's knife.

Zhao Xun directly forced out his true energy, pulled out Minghong Dao, and with a light flick, the sword in the opponent's hand flew away.

Immediately, Zhao Xun put the knife on the swordsman's neck with lightning speed.

From the very beginning, Zhao Xun noticed something strange, but he was not sure of the other party's true intentions, so he kept observing secretly.

After confirming that the other party is indeed Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, Zhao Xun is ready for this step.

It's like the two sides are playing chess, the opponent is still on the first floor, and Zhao Xun is already on the tenth floor.

How do you play this game?
This swordsman is doomed to lose.

Zhao Xun smiled lightly: "If you want to be an assassin, you are too young to be a dead soldier. The professional level is not good enough."

Wei Wang Li Lian's face was ashen, but he had to bite the bullet and come out to rescue the swordsman at this time.

He coughed lightly, and took a few steps closer and said, "Haha, Mr. Zhao misunderstood. He just wanted to show Mr. Zhao the ultimate art of sword dancing, and he used too much force. Isn't it?"

The swordsman was already shaking with fright, and only after hearing King Wei's words did he wake up from a dream.

"Yes, yes. What His Royal Highness King Wei said is very true. A certain person just indulged in performing a sword dance and used too much force for a while. I hope Master Zhao will forgive me."

Zhao Xun didn't intend to take the swordsman's life at first, but just wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate the king of Wei, so he retracted the sword, but cut off the swordsman's belt when he retracted the sword.

The swordsman only felt his legs get cold, and when he looked down, he saw that his pants had fallen off, and his face turned red instantly.

Being so obedient and ugly in public, the swordsman wished he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

He quickly lifted his trousers and trot away.

The most embarrassing thing at this time was Wei Wang Li Lian.

What Zhao Xun did just now seemed to be humiliating the swordsman, but in fact he was humiliating Wei Wang Li Lian.

However, King Wei couldn't show his anger, because this would confirm his desire to kill Zhao Xun.

"What are you doing in a daze, then play music and dance."

In order to ease the embarrassment, King Wei had to order the musicians to divert attention.

The musicians immediately started playing after receiving the order, and the atmosphere of the banquet was restored.

Sitting next to Zhao Xun was Wu Zhenqing, the imperial commissioner of the imperial mission.

He was really frightened by the dangerous situation just now.

King Wei and Zhao Xun had a grudge, and he knew it.

But he would never have thought that King Wei dared to act in the palace and arranged for assassins to assassinate Zhao Xun in the name of dancing swords.

If Zhao Xun was really assassinated, how would King Wei end up?
Probably to execute the assassin directly to silence him?

This king of Wei is really vicious.

After the banquet, the ministers of the imperial mission dispersed one after another.

After returning to the residence, Wu Zhenqing immediately called Zhao Xun to the room.

After closing the doors and windows and confirming that no one was eavesdropping, Wu Zhenqing lowered his voice and said, "Lord Zhao, it was really extremely dangerous just now. I didn't expect that King Wei would dare to commit murder in the palace. But it seems that the assassin is not yours at all. opponent."

"Because I am a disciple of the head of the mountain, I am naturally a practitioner."

Zhao Xun knew that it would be impossible to hide at this time, so he simply had a showdown.

"That swordsman is at most eighth-rank or ninth-rank. In my opinion, he is a low-level existence."

Zhao Xun said indifferently: "So this guy is not my opponent at all. I want to kill him as if I wanted to get something out of a pocket. The reason why I didn't kill him but just humiliated him is because I was afraid of the imperial mission. If it was just me Man, he's died ten thousand times."

Zhao Xun's words moved Wu Zhenqing very much.

"Master Zhao understands righteousness deeply, and I am very impressed. Let's let this matter go, let's get out of this wrong place as soon as possible."

Wu Zhenqing was afraid that King Wei would not be willing to kill again, so he wanted to leave Liangzhou as soon as possible.

Zhao Xun himself didn't care, the soldiers came to block the water and cover them with soil.

He didn't believe how much power King Wei could have.

Just a feudal lord who has fallen out of favor, even if there are followers around him, there will not be many masters.

Taking a step back, even if King Wei really has martial arts masters around him, how can he still be better than the brothers and sisters in the academy?

Do you really think that practitioners in this world are worthless like Chinese cabbage?
Of course, since Wu Zhenqing said so, Zhao Xun had to give him this face.

After all, Wu Zhenqing is the head of the imperial consolation team, and also the teacher who taught Zhao Xun how to draw talismans.

In addition, Zhao Xun didn't want troubles to arise. After all, King Wei is still a prince. If Zhao Xun kills King Wei in Weiwang's mansion, Emperor Xianlong's old-fashioned personality will definitely be the same as Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun felt that it was not necessary to go to that step, so let Wei Wang's head be stored on his neck for a while.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the officials of the imperial mission had breakfast in another courtyard.

The supply of breakfast is still very rich, varied and exquisite, but the taste is quite different from Changan's breakfast.

But compared with the dry food they ate along the way, this was already a huge improvement, and all the officials began to feast on it.

Just as Zhao Xun was chatting and laughing with Wu Zhenqing, Wu Zhenqing's personal servant came trotting all the way to him, and said with a bitter face: "Master, King Wei invites you to come to the mansion for a while."

"what?"

Wu Zhenqing looked very astonished.

According to his original plan, they would leave Liangzhou after breakfast and would not stop in Liangzhou too much.

This is naturally to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After all, the grievances between King Wei and Zhao Xun must be sparked at once.

The swordsman's assassination in Wei Wang's mansion may be just the beginning, if it really gets out of hand, it's not what Wu Zhenqing wants to see.

King Wei wants to see him at this time, or see him alone, what exactly is he trying to do?
Wu Zhenqing's mind was running fast and calculating.

After thinking about it, he still couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

After all, King Wei is a vassal king, even though he is an imperial envoy, he is still half a head short.

It's no joke to blatantly refuse the order of the vassal king.

"Ahem, Mr. Zhao, you wait in the other courtyard first. I will go to Wei Wangfu, and I will go back."

"it is good."

Zhao Xun didn't think it would be a problem either.

There is a grievance and a debtor. Even if King Wei wanted to seek revenge, he would definitely come for Zhao Xun, and he would not lay a poisonous hand on Wu Zhenqing.

At worst, just wait.

Outside Liangzhou city.

The Allied Army of the Western Regions and the Liangzhou Army camped outside the city.

He Chun personally brought a group of followers to the city gate and called for the door.

To his surprise, the city gate was not opened.

Even if he yelled loudly, the soldiers on the top of the wall were like wooden men, they didn't respond at all.

He Chun couldn't help being furious.

Anyway, he can be regarded as the confidant of His Royal Highness King Wei, are these big soldiers Qiu Ba desperate for their lives?
"Open the city gate quickly!"

This time He Chun raised his voice to the highest level, as if he was roaring.

"Reporting to my lord, His Royal Highness Wei Wang has ordered that no one is allowed to enter or leave Liangzhou City."

This time, the top soldier on the top of the wall finally gave a response.

Now it was He Chun's turn to be stunned.

What does it mean?
Why are you not allowed to enter and leave the city?
"Go and report to His Royal Highness King Wei and say that He Chun is back!"

He Chun could only shout out from the air, his lungs were about to explode.

"promise!"

The soldier nodded, and then flew away.

Wei Wangfu.

Wei Wang Li Lian and Wu Zhenqing sat in the study and talked for a long time.

Li Lian expressed his attitude unabashedly, hoping that Wu Zhenqing could hand over Zhao Xun to him.

Naturally, it was impossible for Wu Zhenqing to accept this.

Not to mention that he and Zhao Xun got along quite well, even if Zhao Xun didn't have any friendship with him, it was impossible for him to do such a thing of betraying his colleagues.

What Wu Zhenqing didn't expect was that King Wei was so bold that he dared to openly murder court officials.

"His Royal Highness Wei Wang doesn't need to say more, I will pretend that I haven't heard about today's incident. Farewell!"

Wu Zhenqing cupped her fists and was about to turn around and leave.

But Wei Wang Li Lian sneered and said: "Wait! Master Wu still wants to leave after listening to this king's heartfelt words. Do you think this king is a three-year-old child?"

Wu Zhenqing's face changed suddenly: "What does His Royal Highness King Wei mean, I don't understand."

"do not understand?"

Li Lian said coldly: "To tell you the truth, I give you two choices. One is to hand over Zhao Xun, and then the mission can continue westward. The other is, don't leave any of you."

Facing Li Lian's threat, Wu Zhenqing was not frightened.

He laughed loudly and said: "We are officials appointed by the imperial court and imperial envoys appointed by His Majesty. Is His Royal Highness Wei Wang detaining us for treason?"

"presumptuous!"

Wei Wang Li Lian was furious when he heard the words, and reprimanded him: "Believe it or not, I will punish you for disrespecting the vassal king right now."

Just when the tension reached its peak, a young eunuch of the palace entered the room and whispered something in Li Lian's ear.

Afterwards, Li Lian's face turned ashen.

"Take a good look at him, I will come back as soon as I go."

He Chun would never have imagined that King Wei's response would be to lower a bamboo basket from the top of the city.

The city gate was not opened, only a bamboo basket was lowered.

This means that it is obvious that King Wei only let him sit in the bamboo basket alone, and then asked the soldiers to lift the bamboo basket to the top of the city.

He Chun was so angry that he almost fainted.

Why is this so?
Could it be that His Royal Highness the King of Wei has been bewitched by something evil?
He was struggling with motivation in his heart, should he obey or disobey?

Obedience sacrifices dignity.What was sacrificed by disobedience was the trust of King Wei.

After weighing the pros and cons, He Chun finally gave up his dignity.

As a courtier, it is nothing more than choosing who to be a dog for.

From the moment he entered Wei Wangfu and became Wei Wang's guest, he had no other choice.

"Come on, pull me up."

The soldiers on the top of the city pulled together the rope and lifted the bamboo basket up little by little.

The bamboo basket kept shaking as it slowly moved up, He Chun was so frightened that he closed his eyes.

He was originally a civil servant among the officials of the royal family. The reason why he served as the commander-in-chief of the Liangzhou Army was because this matter was very important. King Wei could only choose his confidants, so he was kicked out of the market.

He doesn't really know anything about commanding troops to fight, and naturally he doesn't have much courage.

Being able to do this is already his limit.

He Chun felt that time passed very slowly at this time, as if it had stopped.

After an unknown amount of time, the bamboo basket, which had been shaking, stopped.

He Chun opened his eyes and found that he had come to the city wall.

He stretched out his feet cautiously, and he breathed a sigh of relief the moment his soles touched the ground.

He Chun knew that something important must have happened in Liangzhou city at this moment.

Otherwise, His Royal Highness King Wei would not be so cautious.

His Royal Highness King Wei is extremely willful and casual.

At this moment, He Chun just wanted to see His Royal Highness King Wei quickly and find out what happened.

But he said that He Chun ran all the way down the horse path and headed for Wei Wang's mansion.

He Chun has been following him ever since the king of Wei took control of Liangzhou.

So he can be said to be familiar with the location of Wei Wangfu.

After trotting and galloping all the way to Wei Wang's mansion, He Chun went straight to Wei Wang's study.

Based on his understanding of His Royal Highness King Wei, King Wei usually meets officials in the study.

Sure enough, when He Chun arrived at the study, King Wei was drinking tea.

"My subordinates greet Your Highness."

He Chun numbly fell to his knees, pushed the golden mountain and turned the jade pillar upside down, and made a big salute.

"Why did you come back?"

Wei Wang Li Lian didn't mean to make He Chun get up, but asked him coldly.

This question really gave He Chun a chill.

"Your Highness, this subordinate misses His Highness."

After holding back for a long time, He Chunfang managed to choke out a word.

"Oh? So the sandbar has been taken?"

Wei Wang Li Lian's voice carried a murderous look, and the chill was overwhelming.

"Uh"

The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law. He Chun knew that this day was inevitable, so he lowered his voice as much as possible and said, "Reporting to Your Highness, there was an accident on the sandbar."

"what!"

Li Lian was furious when he heard the words, and rushed in front of He Chun with a stride, and asked in a deep voice, "What did you say, what's the accident?"

"Your Highness, listen to your explanation."

Although He Chun was scared out of his wits, he still had to bite the bullet and forcefully recount the events of the Battle of Shazhou to Li Lian.

Of course, He Chun would tell King Wei how resourceful he was in setting fire to Shazhou City and how he led his troops to break through the siege.

Of course that's not what Wei Wang Li Lian wanted to hear.

He only pays attention to the result, and right now, the result is obviously not what he wants to hear.

"So, did you take this king's words as wind? Didn't this king tell you that if you fail to take the sandbar, you don't have to come back?"

Facing King Wei's questioning, He Chun was terrified, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Your Highness, King Wei, please forgive me. This subordinate has tried his best, but the enemy is outnumbered, and this subordinate led his troops to break through the encirclement through desperate efforts. But Although my subordinates failed to take the sandbar, they persuaded the coalition forces of the Hu tribe in the Western Regions to go with them. Now they are stationed outside Liangzhou City. Your Highness’ plans will not be affected.”

"What did you say!"

Hearing this, Wei Wang Li Lian's anger was suppressed a bit.

But when he thought about it again, he felt that something was wrong.

"But in this way, if the army in Shazhou or even Guazhou responds and comes to pursue them, what should we do?"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness."

He Chun tried his best to calm down, and then said in a deep voice: "This subordinate has already considered this, so he specially ordered a partial division to station outside Shazhou City, giving the army in the city the illusion that we have not gone far. They definitely won’t be able to react in a short time. By the time they react, we’ve already reached Chang’an.”

He Chun knew very well that King Wei's real goal was Chang'an, and everything before that was just a foreshadowing.

That being the case, as long as the main line is not disturbed too much, it is not a big problem.

Wei Wang Li Lian began to pace up and down in the study with his hands behind his back, the atmosphere was tense and depressed for a while.

After a long time, Wei Wang Li Lianfang sighed and said: "This is the only plan for now. But right now we have to solve a problem first."

"Your Highness, please give me your instructions."

"Get rid of Zhao Xun."

Li Lian said coldly.

Wu Zhenqing did not return to the other courtyard for a long time, Zhao Xun felt that the situation was not good.

Based on his understanding of King Wei, this fellow should not swallow this breath so easily.

He will definitely look for opportunities to retaliate and save face.

It's just that Zhao Xun didn't expect that King Wei would choose Wu Zhenqing as a breakthrough.

Really don't even want a face.

Anticipating that something big will happen soon, Zhao Xun felt that to be on the safe side, he should inform his brothers and sisters in advance.

After all, the brothers and sisters are not far from Zhao Xun.

They accompanied them all the way, and Zhao Xun could not ignore their kindness.

"There is no class in teaching, Pippi Shrimp, let's go."

Zhao Xun shouted a formula, and Bai Jiaolong flew out from the chessboard space.

Zhao Xun jumped onto Bai Jiaolong's back with a sudden leap, and then walked away.

"What, King Wei wants to kill you!"

The third brother Long Qingquan was furious when he heard this sentence.

"Who gave him the guts? Do you really think he can do whatever he wants as a prince?"

"That's right, Junior Brother, what kind of enmity is there between you and this King Wei?"

Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, also asked.

"."

Zhao Xun didn't know what to say for a while.

"Well, I'm afraid it's the kind that never dies."

Zhao Xun had no choice but to tell all the brothers and sisters about his quarrel with King Wei in detail.

"Good guy"

Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan was shocked.

"So you still have such a past. Is it no wonder that King Wei wants to kill you?"

Although Long Qingquan had no intention of paying attention to government affairs, he also knew that power was the most important thing to these princes and grandchildren.

As long as there is the slightest chance to fight for the throne, these members of the royal family should not give up.

And Zhao Xun's accidental fall made King Wei completely lose the chance to compete for the throne.

How can King Wei not be angry?

I'm afraid that Zhao Xun's heart will be torn apart.

From the point of view of King Wei, there is really no problem in doing so.

But as a human being, everyone has a position.

But Long Qingquan's position is naturally to protect Zhao Xun, and everything is in Zhao Xun's interests.

Now that the king of Wei wants to kill Zhao Xun, he is going against the academy.

As the third teacher of the academy, Long Qingquan was the first to refuse.

King Wei?Prince?What a fart?
"Little brother, don't worry, if this guy really does something, we will take his dog's life."

"Thank you third brother."

Zhao Xun cupped his fists at Long Qingquan and said, "But the most urgent thing now is to rescue Master Wu. Master Wu is now trapped in the palace, and he may be detained by King Wei."

"Well, let's save people now."

Zhao Xun returned to Liangzhou City on a white Jiaolong.

As for the brothers and sisters of the academy, they are flying with the sword.

It wasn't that they were trying to be handsome, but they were worried about crushing Bai Jiaolong.

After all, these people weigh several hundred catties together, and Bai Jiaolong is still a young dragon, so he may not be able to carry so many people.

After returning to the other courtyard, Zhao Xun found that the other courtyard had been completely blocked by Liangzhou's army, so he jumped off Pippi Shrimp's back, strode forward and asked, "What are you going to do?"

The soldiers from Liangzhou who were ordered to come here originally wanted to arrest Zhao Xun. Seeing that Zhao Xun was not there, they sealed off the entire courtyard and prohibited any personnel from the imperial envoy from entering or leaving.

Now Zhao Xun is back again, which makes them feel a little unbelievable.

I just wanted to sleep, and someone handed me a pillow.

"Come on, take him down!"

Zhao Xun sneered, "Overthinking one's abilities."

He pulled out the Ming Hong Dao, pouring awe-inspiring aura into the blade of Ming Hong Dao, and with a light slap the soldiers were blown away by the powerful Gang Qi.

Zhao Xun approached a soldier of the Liangzhou Army who was blown away, and lifted him up by his collar.

"Say, where is Lord Wu now?"

"I don't know."

The soldier of the Liangzhou army was obviously frightened, and his voice was already crying.

"Should still be in the palace"

Another soldier of the Liangzhou Army muttered in a low voice.

Zhao Xun didn't intend to embarrass these soldiers at first, he knew that these were also wage earners.

Injustice has its head, and debt has its owner.

Even if Zhao Xun wanted revenge, he would seek revenge from King Wei.

Originally, Zhao Xun had an attitude of calming things down, but now it seems that sometimes people can't be too tolerant.

People who are good are bullied by others, and horses who are good are ridden by others.

Your kindness will be considered weak by others, and they will squeeze and bully you even more.

"Oh, then I will go to Wei Wang's mansion and rescue Master Wu. Anyone who stands in my way will die."

At this moment Zhao Xun is extremely domineering, his eyes are full of killing intent.

Wei Wangfu.

Wei Wang Li Lian came down to the gate surrounded by a group of royal guards.

Seeing that there were only a few people behind Zhao Xun, Li Lian laughed loudly and said, "That's it?"

At this moment, he didn't want to make any more concealment, and sneered again and again: "Zhao Xun, you never thought that you would have today, right? You have caused this king so badly, and today this king will make you pay back all your capital and interest." return."

Zhao Xun just thought it was funny, and pointed a middle finger at King Wei and said, "Aren't you funny? You think you are a victim? I still think I am a victim. Besides, it is His Majesty who made you surrender in advance, so to speak Come on, do you also have to settle accounts with His Majesty?"

"you!"

King Wei was choked by Zhao Xun, but he was dumb and couldn't tell if he was suffering from Coptis chinensis.

He can't really complain that it's Emperor Xianlong's fault.

Even if he raised troops, even if he united with the Hu tribe in the Western Regions, it would still be a slogan on the side of the Qing emperor.

It is absolutely impossible for him to openly shout against his Lao Tzu, because then he would lose the legitimacy of his succession.

The father dies and the son succeeds, and the brother ends up with the younger brother.

This is the core essence of the change of power in the feudal dynasty.

"What a sharp-tongued fellow, this king will tear you apart to see if you can still speak hard."

"You are afraid that you have misunderstood your own strength."

Zhao Xun shook his head and said, "Do you think you can do anything against me with your few soldiers and crab generals?"

"Crazy, continue to be crazy."

Li Lian, king of Wei, gritted his teeth and said, "This king will peel off your skin and make it into a drum, beating it every day."

"I'm afraid you don't know yet, the entire Liangzhou City is now surrounded."

"Surround?"

"You mean the armies outside the city?"

When Zhao Xun went out of the city, he saw many troops stationed outside the city, but what did King Wei mean by surrounding?
"The coalition forces from the 36 countries in the Western Regions have already arrived in Liangzhou. They happened to be bumped into by you. Do you think you still have a way out?"

Li Lian said proudly.

"The Allied Forces of the 36 Nations in the Western Regions? You mean you are colluding with the Hu tribe in the Western Regions?"

Zhao Xun couldn't believe his ears.

The king of Wei was ordered by Emperor Xianlong to go to the edge of Liangzhou Jiufan Town.

Liangzhou is an important town and an important node at the eastern end of the Hexi Corridor. Instead of fulfilling his responsibilities as a vassal king, King Wei colluded with foreign enemies.

Wang Zhongyi's death was wronged. He obviously did nothing but was deemed by Emperor Xianlong as collaborating with the enemy and treason, and was hacked to death in Xishi.

However, Emperor Xianlong's good son, Wei Wang Li Lian, went so far as to collude with the Hu tribe in the Western Regions, and he did not hesitate to betray his country and people.

"It's borrowing troops to clear the emperor's side."

Li Lian said without any sense of shame: "There are traitors bewitching the emperor in the court today, and this king wants to be on the side of the Qing emperor, so that the world will be bright and bright."

Li Lian's move completely angered Zhao Xun.

At the beginning, Zhao Xun was still thinking about whether to hurt King Wei's life.

But now it seems that there is no need to think about it.

If it only involves personal grievances, then Zhao Xun may still save his life.

But now it involves national hatred and family hatred.

Zhao Xun felt that he had to do justice for the sky today.

"brute!"

Zhao Xun scolded without hesitation: "I have never seen such a shameless person. You are simply a beast. Do you think that you can treat the people as pigs and dogs because you are a prince? I will let you understand today, you Big mistake."

Zhao Xun suddenly jumped up and flew towards King Wei.

Although Wei Wang Li Lian was furious, he still understood that his strength was not enough to fight against a practitioner, so he took a few steps back.

The practitioners and guards of Wei Wangfu rushed forward, forming a human wall.

What they eat is Wei Wang's salary, so naturally they must try their best to protect Wei Wang.

There are hundreds of guards in the Wei Palace, and their cultivation levels range from high to low.

The one with the highest level of practice is named Tao Chengyin, who practices martial arts and has a full three ranks.

The third rank of the martial arts system is the Martial Spirit Realm.

The characteristic of the Wuling realm is that it can summon a general of the Wufu system.

This general can be from ancient times or from the Great Zhou Dynasty, as long as it is recorded in the history books, it can be summoned.

The summoned general can last for a stick of incense, and will disappear automatically after a stick of incense.

But now he obviously has no intention of making a move.

Because he could feel that the opponent's cultivation level was only at the sixth rank.

But he couldn't determine what the other party's practice type was.

Some are like the Wufu system, some are like the Wenzong system of scholars, and some are like the Taoist system.

If you follow the Confucian Wenzong system, the sixth rank can just create a protective cover that is almost invincible.

In the time of a stick of incense, this practitioner is invincible.

This can perfectly avoid the general summoned by the third rank of Wufu.

So Tao Chengyin planned to wait.

If the other guards of the practitioners of the palace can force out Zhao Xun's protective cover, he will make a move after a while to ensure that everything is under control.

In this way, Zhao Xun will surely die.

The best way for him to show courteousness to His Royal Highness King Wei is to remove Zhao Xun's head.

From the moment the army started, His Royal Highness King Wei had no way of turning back.

Zhao Xun and a group of officials from the imperial envoy collided with each other, and it was a death for nothing.

Tao Chengyin knew very well that weeds had to be rooted out, so apart from Zhao Xun, all other officials of the imperial envoy had to be killed as well.

Although Zhao Xun's practice level is only the sixth rank, he has experienced countless actual combats, and his combat experience can be described as very rich.

The practitioner guards in Wei Wangfu are a mixed bag, some with rich experience in actual combat, and some with appearances.

"Canglang Saber Technique, start!"

In an instant, the Canglang Dao, which was imbued with awe-inspiring righteousness, became several times larger.

One knife splits the road of life and death, this knife technique is about domineering.

These palace practitioners had never seen such a powerful saber intent before, and they were shaken away by the stellar energy, spitting blood from their mouths.

"That's it? Can we go together? No one can fight, it's boring."

In terms of pretentiousness, Zhao Xun has never lost.

Not to mention facing old enemies.

King Wei is just like his Lao Tzu, Emperor Xianlong.

Zhao Xun had no way to deal with Emperor Xianlong in a short time, but his son King Wei was still captured if he wanted to deal with him.

As long as the crime of Wei Wang's rebellion is confirmed, Zhao Xun can completely kill him.

At that time, Emperor Xianlong would not be able to kill Zhao Xun even for the sake of the court's face.

Because this shows that the court recognized that Wei Wang's rebellion was legal.

No matter how upset Emperor Xianlong was in his heart, he could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and could only swallow his anger and admit it.

If Emperor Xianlong was unhappy, Zhao Xun would be very happy.

Tao Chengyin couldn't stand it any longer.

These bastards are really worrying.

Forget it, since that's the case, he made an early move.

Tao Chengyin is a third-rank Martial Spirit Realm. Apart from being able to summon an ancient general to fight as a summoned beast, he also possesses extreme speed and agility.

He quickly came to Zhao Xun's back and patted Zhao Xun with his palm.

With this palm, he was full of true energy, if he hit the truth, Zhao Xun's internal organs would be shattered, and there is no possibility of survival.

But Zhao Xun seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and he dodged to avoid it.

"So fast!"

Tao Chengyin didn't expect Zhao Xun's movements to be so fast, he didn't even see Zhao Xun's dodging route clearly.

It stands to reason that a sixth-grade practitioner would not have such a fast speed.

"go to hell!"

Tao Chengyin only felt that he was being played with and humiliated.

It is a huge gap for a practitioner to be one rank apart, let alone a difference of three ranks.

He couldn't take it any longer and had to make a quick decision.

Tao Chengyin yelled violently, and then a huge white tiger appeared on his body.

"His natal guardian is the white tiger."

Every practitioner above the fourth rank has his own natal guardian, which is different from the natal guardian, which can fight independently.

The white tiger is a very ferocious beast among the guardians of its natal life. Its attack range is extremely wide, and it can kill the enemy in a short time.

It will bite the enemy's neck hard until the enemy is suffocated.

This is quite in line with the habits of big cats.

When hunting in the wild, big cats will try to ambush their prey as much as possible. They will first get as close to the prey as possible, and after confirming that the prey is within their attack range, they will jump up and pounce on the prey, biting the prey hard. neck.

Zhao Xun naturally knows these details, you have your natal guardian, and I have a spirit beast.

In a one-on-one situation, Bai Jiaolong may not be at a disadvantage.

Zhao Xun shouted: "Pipi Shrimp, stop it."

Bai Jiaolong has a spirit, and rushed over immediately after hearing Zhao Xun's call.

The moment it saw the white tiger, it understood what had happened, and swept it away fiercely.

The white tiger was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back to avoid the blow.

Then it showed its fangs and began to hail the dragon.

This is also one of the characteristics of felines.

Tao Chengyin was taken aback when he saw this.

He never thought that there was such a spirit beast beside Zhao Xun.

The level of Bai Jiaolong among the spirit beasts is quite high. Generally speaking, when fighting between spirit beasts, the level is first considered, and the individual differences are second.

Of course, the fight between the spirit beast and the natal guardian is another matter entirely.

Bai Jiaolong was very ferocious, obviously he didn't intend to give Baihu a chance to adjust.

It won't let anyone down, biting the white tiger's vitals one after another.

For this kind of fierce beast fight, whoever bites the opponent's vitals first will have an absolute advantage.The active party also needs to avoid being picked up by the other party.

After all, advantage is not equal to victory, and no one knows what will happen until the last moment.

Here, Bai Jiaolong and Baihu are indistinguishable from each other.

Tao Chengyin did not intend to be idle over there.

He knew that things would change later, this Zhao Xun obviously came prepared, God knows what will happen, it's better to end it early.

Tao Chengyin directly summoned Cao Kangshi, an ancient general of the Great Qin Kingdom.

This General Cao, also known as Cao Rentu, once commanded an army of 20 to flatten the Tang Kingdom.

The 15 Tang army was killed by Cao Kangshi in Donghai County.

There is one more Cao Rentu in the history books.

But more people only know that he is a good leader in battle, but few people know that Cao Kangshi is also a top practitioner.

Although at that time there was no division of the nine-rank practice system.

But according to Tao Chengyin's estimate, Cao Kangshi's grade is at least the first grade.

First rank martial artist!
A golden icon appeared in front of Tao Chengyin.

"kill him!"

Tao Chengyin ordered.

The summoned ancient general has no thoughts of his own, and can only completely obey the orders of others. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a marionette.

Cao Kangshi, who was exuding golden light all over, rushed towards Zhao Xun.

"Fuck, summon again, don't talk about martial arts."

Seeing Tao Chengyin using summoning skills one after another, Zhao Xun couldn't help but swear.

Since you don't talk about Wude, don't blame me.

"Change!"

Zhao Xun shouted, and then a golden protective cover appeared around his body.

This is the unique ability of the sixth-grade scholars.

In the time of a stick of incense, the protective shield they summoned can ensure that they are unscathed and almost invincible.

"Come in if you have the ability."

Zhao Xun continued to talk.

The brothers and sisters of the academy who had been watching the battle at this moment knew that it was time for them to make a move.

Third senior brother Long Qingquan was the first to stand up.

"Sword come!"

Long Qingquan let out a loud cry, and the Buried Flower Sword came out of its sheath and fell into his hand automatically.

The funeral flower swordsmanship emphasizes the details, and the greatest power can be revealed between needles and threads.

Tao Chengyin was obviously aware of Long Qingquan's fierce sword intent, and immediately drew his sword to fight.

Only a swordsman knows a swordsman best.

Tao Chengyin knew that the level of cultivation of the swordsman in front of him was even higher than his.

As for the strength gap between the two sides, we have to fight to know.

There was a crisp sound when the two swords collided.

Then Tao Chengyin felt that his tiger's mouth was split open, and blood seeped out from the tiger's mouth.

"It's so powerful."

The other party's realm is at least second rank.

Tao Chengyin's heart sank.

The difference in cultivation level is a whole level, is this really a win?

The duel between practitioners pays attention to momentum.

In the case of occupying absolute momentum, it is difficult to make a comeback.

That's why the level of cultivation is so important.

Because the party with the higher level of cultivation has a considerable psychological advantage.

And the disadvantaged side will be snowballed, and the more they fight, the more they feel disadvantaged, and the more they fight, the more difficult it is to come back.

Tao Chengyin felt this way at the moment. After fighting Long Qingquan several times, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't beat the man in front of him.

Can't beat what to do?
The best way to deal with it is naturally to run away.

But now Tao Chengyin couldn't run away.

Because he is the guest of King Wei.

If he runs away, what will His Royal Highness King Wei do?
Food for the king, loyalty to the king.

Since he is a guest of King Wei, he has to work for King Wei.

Now it is difficult to compete with King Wei only by his own strength.

So he needed to mobilize Cao Kangshi, the general of the Qin State, who had been summoned to attack Long Qingquan.

Anyway, Cao Kangshi had no choice but to face Zhao Xun who was hiding in the protective cover, and the summoned creature could only last for a stick of incense, so he had to use this time to do something.

"First rank martial artist."

Long Qingquan could feel the aura of this summoning general, and immediately gave an assessment.

"So what about first-rank martial arts, don't you know that academy disciples can kill people across borders, let alone you are just a summoner."

Although the summoned object is powerful, it is not a real person after all, not only has a duration limit, but its performance in actual combat will still be compromised.

Because the battle between practitioners is a test of on-the-spot response, and summoned objects will not be on-the-spot.

"Burial flower swordsmanship!"

Long Qingquan activated the Flower Burial Sword, first drew a circle, and then dodged behind Cao Kangshi.

He drew a cross lightly, and then flashed back.

Long Qingquan acted like an assassin, turning around and jumping repeatedly.

Cao Kangshi is a powerful warrior.

Even Cao Kangshi himself belonged to the type of one force falling ten quickly.

But now he is just a summoned object, and all the indexes have dropped.

The reaction force is much weaker.

To put it bluntly, he is now being played by Long Qingquan.

"This thief is delaying time"

Tao Chengyin's scalp was numb.

He can't beat Long Qingquan, Long Qingquan can't beat Cao Kangshi, and Cao Kangshi is a summon that has a duration.

It's like a dead loop.

And the more delays, the more unfavorable Tao Chengyin will be.

But what can he do?

The face of Wei Wang Li Lian was a little ugly.

Even if he is not a practitioner, he can understand the situation.

Right now, his disciple Tao Chengyin is showing signs of decline. If the battle cannot be resolved within a stick of incense, the consequences will be disastrous.

If it was before tearing his face, Li Lian would not be so flustered.

But now he has completely broken his face with Zhao Xun, and Zhao Xun also knows his real purpose, so he can only bear it to the end.

The loser has no right to speak out.

"Your Highness, why don't we withdraw."

"Yes, Your Highness, the situation is not right now, just to be on the safe side, let's withdraw."

Facing the slightly noisy persuasion from the doormen, Li Lian's face turned pale.

How can I tell him to withdraw at this time?
If he withdrew, wouldn't that be tantamount to admitting that he was inferior to Zhao Xun?
This simply made him slap his own mouth hard.

Li Lian is a very face-saving person, he really can't do it.

"Don't talk about this anymore, now the king is on the verge of attacking. Run? Where are you going?"

Li Lian clenched his fists and said, "Today either he will die or I will live."

"Hit him, hit him! Well done!"

Zhao Xun watched the third senior brother Long Qingquan beating up the doormen of Wei Wang's mansion fatly in the protective cover, and he just felt so refreshed.

It seems that he really brought the brothers and sisters from the academy right.

Having them in Zhao Xun is equivalent to having an extra amulet, no matter how disadvantaged the situation is, you will not feel panic, because it may turn around at any time.

So far, the academy has only dispatched the third brother Long Qingquan.

As for the senior sister, second senior sister, sixth senior brother, tenth senior brother and other one-vote masters, they haven't made a move yet.

Tao Chengyin naturally realized that he was at the end of the road.

The summoned object will disappear immediately, and once the summoned object disappears, he will surely die.

If you don't withdraw at this time, when will you wait?

What he was thinking about before was honor, and he couldn't abandon King Wei in consideration of this.

But if he didn't run now, he would not only lose his honor but his life.

Faced with the situation of his own death or the death of King Wei, Tao Chengyin would choose to let King Wei die without hesitation.

It's not just talk that a dead fellow Daoist will not die a poor Taoist.

His agility points are maxed out, as long as he wants to run, Long Qingquan will definitely not be able to catch up.

What's more, there are still summoned objects dragging Long Qingquan.

Tao Chengyin flew up and ran away as if there was wind under his feet.

Wei Wang Li Lian's eyes stared like cowbells in the distance, and he couldn't believe what happened in front of him.

"Just run away like this?"

King Wei felt that he had raised a white-eyed wolf.

Tao Chengyin was already the top practitioner he could recruit.

Therefore, the king of Wei has always given Tao Chengyin preferential treatment, and even spared no effort to be a corporal, giving Tao Chengyin the best treatment.

But now.
Sure enough, people in this world can't choose to believe in others, they can only choose to believe in themselves.

But Zhao Xun obviously didn't intend to let Tao Chengyin go, he shouted: "Pippi shrimp, end him."

Bai Jiaolong Youling understood what Zhao Xun meant, and immediately ran after him.

Tao Chengyin's lightness kung fu is so good that ordinary people may not be able to catch up with him.

But Bai Jiaolong is not a human, but a spirit beast.

The speed of the spirit beast is definitely beyond ordinary people.

Tao Chengyin never thought that he would be caught up after running so far.

Looking back, he saw that it was a white flood dragon with its bloody mouth wide open. Everyone was scared to pee.

He is just an ordinary swordsman without the guards and summons of his life.

Ordinary swordsmen cannot fight against spirit beasts, especially high-level pure blood spirit beasts.

Now he can't fight and can't run, and he can't run away, not to mention how desperate he is.

Bai Jiaolong didn't give him a chance to react at all, so he bit on it.

Tao Chengyin wanted to dodge, but it was impossible in front of Bai Jiaolong.

Bai Jiaolong bit Tao Chengyin with one bite, tearing Tao Chengyin to pieces with all his might.

What the hell!

Zhao Xun was surprised when he saw this.

In his impression, Pippi Shrimp has always been a cute pet, but he didn't expect it to be a beast.

A third-rank cultivator was torn apart by Pippi Shrimp, which is enough to show the strength of Bai Jiaolong.

A ferocious beast is a ferocious beast, and it is not something ordinary people can compare to.

"The next step is to clean up the trash."

Zhao Xun looked in the direction of King Wei and said coldly.

After Tao Chengyin died, the remaining diners in Wei Wangfu were like chickens and dogs.

Now Wei Wang Li Lian really panicked.

He didn't want to run at first, but now he wanted to run and found that he couldn't.

Zhao Xun stepped out of the protective cover and walked up to Li Lian step by step.

Zhao Xun raised his hand, and slapped Li Lian hard across the face.

Snapped!
With a crisp sound, a very obvious slap print appeared on Wei Wang Li Lian's cheek.

Li Lian only felt that his cheeks were hot and burning, as if he was being roasted by fire.

"Do you dare to beat me?"

Until now, Li Lian still couldn't believe that Zhao Xun dared to beat him.

One must know that he is the majestic Prince of Zhou, while Zhao Xun is just a prince of the state.

A prince of a country dares to fight the vassal?
"What happened to you?"

Zhao Xun sneered, and then slapped again.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!"

Zhao Xun shot his bow left and right, and with one operation, King Wei was turned into a pig's head.

Li Lian's whole body was about to faint.

"Do you know what's the worst thing you've ever done in your life?"

Zhao Xun put it in front of Wei Wang Li Lian and asked in a low voice.

"what."

King Wei asked instinctively.

"It just pushed me off the restaurant. The original Zhao Xun died, and I possessed Zhao Xun."

"Aren't you Zhao Xun?"

Wei Wang Li Lian woke up like a dream, he just wanted to shout out, the next moment Zhao Xun wiped his neck with Minghong knife.

Li Lian, whose vocal cords had been severed, could not make any sound at all, and blood gushed out from his neck.

"Uh uh uh."

He desperately blocked the wound with his hands, but blood still flowed out from the gap between his hands.

"I advise you to go to Yincao Difu and say more good things, try to get a good baby, and don't be reborn as a royal family in your next life. Your IQ won't last more than three chapters in Gongdou's novels."

Then Zhao Xun swung his knife vigorously and chopped off the head of Wei Wang Li Lian.

The headless body slammed forward to the ground.

Zhao Xun held Wei Wang Li Lian's head and yelled at the retainers and guards of the palace, "Wei Wang Li Lian intended to rebel, but I have already been killed by this officer. The rest immediately put down their weapons, otherwise they will be killed on the spot."

These guards of the royal palace were frightened.

They couldn't believe that His Royal Highness King Wei was killed just like that.

Now that King Wei is dead, why are they still fighting?

All the guards dropped their weapons one after another.

Then they fell to their knees.

Zhao Xun knew that this was only the first step, and the battle was far from over.

There are hundreds of thousands of troops outside Liangzhou City, some of them are Liangzhou Army, but most of them are Western Region Allied Forces.

The Liangzhou army would probably throw away their helmets and armor after seeing the head of Wei Wang Li Lian, but the Western Regions coalition army might not.

There is also a possibility that the Liangzhou army knows that it has reached a dead end and will go all the way to the dark.

If this is the case, the pressure that Zhao Xun and others face is not ordinary.

Of course, for Zhao Xun, the most urgent task now is to rescue Wu Zhenqing as soon as possible.

Anyway, Wu Zhenqing is also the leader of the imperial consolation team.

With Wu Zhenqing in charge of the overall situation, the situation should be more stable.

Zhao Xun is still suitable to be a thug to do things, and when it comes to buying people's hearts, these veterans in the officialdom are better at it.

Zhao Xun carried the head of Wei Wang Li Lian all the way to the city of Liangzhou.

The defenders of Liangzhou City were terrified when they saw this scene.

"Whoever stops me will die!"

Zhao Xun is full of domineering aura, and feels like the protagonist of an online article with his own halo.

Zhao Xun quickly climbed to the top of the city, and then hung the head of Wei Wang Li Lian on the city wall.

Afterwards, he used his true energy to amplify his voice several times: "A certain person is Zhao Xun. Wei Wang Li Lian colluded with the barbarians to rebel, and now he has been killed by this official. All Liangzhou soldiers quickly put down their weapons, and they can be punished lightly. If you are stubborn Those who do will be killed."

Zhao Xun knew that at this time, the psychological defense of these ordinary soldiers must be defeated.

The more people surrender, the less pressure they will then face.

There are many ordinary soldiers who don't know what happened. They just obey their immediate superiors and simply follow orders.

As long as Zhao Xun gave them a chance to choose, most of them would put down their weapons and throw themselves at Da Zhou.Because they were originally from Dazhou.

"What, His Royal Highness King Wei is dead?"

"No way?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei is a prince, how could he die?"

"Haven't you heard that King Wei was punished for treason?"

"A courtier dares to kill the prince?"

"This is no ordinary person, he is Zhao Xun. Haven't you heard of Zhao Xun's deeds? He is the most powerful new villain. Zhao Xun solved countless cases in the capital. Later Zhao Xun went to In order to fight against monsters and beasts in the Jiangnan Road, and defeat the monsters with one's own strength, the end is to return the people of Jiangnan to a bright future."

"Tsk tsk, no wonder, it turned out to be Zhao Xun and Zhao Mingyun. I heard that this Zhao Xun was a Wenqu star who descended from the sky, and was later accepted as a disciple by the head of the academy. Think about what kind of person the head of the mountain is, he is the number one in the world." A strong man. Will the character he likes by the old man be bad?"

"That's true. And not only the head of the mountain, but even the national teacher Yuan Tiangang recognized Zhao Xun as his adopted son. This is also a super strong man. Sure enough, the eyes of the big brothers are the same."

"Why did Zhao Xun come to Liangzhou?"

"Haven't you heard that he is also a member of the imperial mission. This time he is here to condolences to the Hexi soldiers."

"But no matter what, he can't kill His Royal Highness King Wei."

"The king of Wei rebelled, so he is no longer a prince. You can understand that Zhao Xun and Master Zhao killed a rebel."

Zhao Xun's words undoubtedly had a very good effect on the hearts of the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army. Under his deliberate guidance, the morale of the Liangzhou Army has been dispersed.

They realized they were serving a traitor.

So what if the traitor is King Wei?Isn't that still a traitor?

Their allegiance is to the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not to the king of Wei.

Since the king of Wei is a traitor and has been killed, what reason do they have to carry out the order of the king of Wei?

"We should make amends."

"Yes, we should make amends!"

"Turn back before it's too late."

"Don't go any further."

A group of soldiers of the Liangzhou Army suddenly woke up and began to cut off with the Allied Forces of the Western Regions.

Of course, the Allied Forces of the Western Regions were also aware of this change, but they did not stop it.

Because at this moment their mentality has also changed.

He and Yanwall are at war between heaven and man in their minds.

The reason why he was willing to go around the sandbar to Liangzhou was because there was a support point for King Wei in Liangzhou.

They can use Liangzhou as a springboard, and then attack Chang'an together.

If you win Chang'an, you can earn money, but if you can't win it, you won't lose money.

But now the situation is completely different.

Because of the killing of King Wei, the Liangzhou army turned back again.

It's just that this time they voted for the Great Zhou court.

If the Allied Forces of the Western Regions do not withdraw, they may face an unfavorable situation of attack from inside and outside.

They went deep alone, and there was no follow-up.

It is more appropriate to decide with Yanwall to withdraw troops in time.

Chang'an is like a piece of fat, although it is attractive, it is not so easy to obtain.

Putting your life on the line for eating meat is by no means a choice made by a wise person.

"Ohh Ohh ohh"

The low-pitched horn sounded, and the Allied forces of the Western Regions withdrew.

The Liangzhou Army did not pursue them.

Firstly, they have no leader now, and secondly, they are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.

The most urgent task right now is to return to Liangzhou City as soon as possible.

They dropped their weapons to show that they had no malice.

Then the city gate opened, and they entered the city one after another.

In the face of tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers, how to deal with it is definitely a headache.

After discussing with Wu Zhenqing, Zhao Xun chose to temporarily place them in the city.

But the officers in these surrenders have to deal with it.

They more or less knew the purpose of going to the sandbar, but they still chose to follow orders without hesitation, which is different from the Liangzhou soldiers who didn't know.

Zhao Xun ordered these officers to be captured and beheaded, and hundreds of heads were hung on the city wall for public display.

The Liangzhou incident was dealt with like lightning, and the situation was finally stabilized.

After losing the bewilderment of the officers, it is impossible for these Liangzhou soldiers to commit rebellion again.

The next step is to write a memorial to the court to explain the situation.

That's the real head-scratching thing.

Even if Emperor Xianlong didn't want to see King Wei, Li Lian was also Emperor Xianlong's own son, not a concubine born to the old king next door.

Tiger poison does not eat children, when Wei Wang Li Lian and Zhao Xun fought on the restaurant and pushed Zhao Xun down the stairs, resulting in Zhao Xun's "death", Emperor Xianlong just reprimanded Wei Wang and sent him away in advance When you arrive at the fiefdom, you will become a fan.

This is enough to explain Emperor Minglong's attitude.

Now that Zhao Xun cut off the head of Wei Wang Li Lian simply and neatly, it was really cool, but one has to take into account Emperor Xianlong's next thunderous anger.

Of course, Zhao Xun took the word of reason.

After all, Wei Wang Li Lian blatantly colluded with the Hu tribe in the Western Regions to rebel, and wanted to lead his troops into Beijing to usurp the throne on the side of the Qing emperor.

This was confirmed by countless people present. With so many witnesses, it is impossible for Emperor Xianlong to deny it even if he wanted to.

But Zhao Xun still had to make a backup plan.

That is, once Emperor Xianlong went mad against him, what should he do?
Not returning to Chang'an is naturally the best choice.

But what about his family?
So no matter what, he still has to return to Chang'an.

With the head of the mountain, the teacher of the state, and the head of Qinglian, Zhao Xun has nothing to be afraid of.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xun wrote the memorial, and asked the third brother Long Qingquan to use the teleportation technique to transmit the memorial to Chang'an City.

Changan.

Daming Palace, Zichen Palace.

Emperor Xianlong was enjoying his dinner.

Today, Yushanfang made a braised lion's head ingeniously.

Different from the general braised lion head, this braised lion head is made from the head of a newborn lamb, which is far more delicious than meatballs made of minced meat.

Emperor Xianlong picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth, chewing it carefully. After a moment of joy, he wanted to reward the imperial chef who made this dish.

At this moment, Zheng Jie, the internal servant, came hurriedly from the outside holding a memorial.

"Your Majesty, Liangzhou hastened to play."

"Oh, companion, let's put Zuo Shu over there. Come and try this stewed lion's head made by the imperial dining room. The taste is really amazing, very fresh."

Emperor Xianlong was obviously in a good mood, but he didn't want to read this so-called urgent report from Liangzhou.

Liangzhou is the fiefdom of King Wei, and I know the virtues of my son best.

Emperor Xianlong knew very well that Wei Wang Li Lian had no talent or virtue, and belonged to the type who could not be supported by mud.

That's why he sent King Wei to Liangzhou.

Liangzhou may not look desolate, but it is located at the eastern end of the Hexi Corridor, so barbarians can't easily beat it.

And because Liangzhou was not rich, Emperor Xianlong didn't feel bad for King Wei to toss around.

Liangzhou urgent report?What urgent report can I have from Liangzhou?

Could it be that the barbarians are calling?
joke!

"Your Majesty, this urgent report is sent by teleportation."

Seeing Emperor Xianlong's indifferent attitude, Zheng Jie could only emphasize.

"Ok?"

Now Emperor Xianlong finally had a little interest.

Teleportation is not a spell that can be used easily, because using a teleportation once consumes a lot of mana for the practitioner, and it takes a long time to recover after using it.

So once the teleportation technique is used to transmit information, it means that this matter is very important, and it has reached the point where it has to be used.

Of course, Emperor Xianlong was able to distinguish priorities.

In this case, even if he didn't want to read this memorial anymore, he still had to bite the bullet and read it.

"Bring it."

Emperor Xianlong spat out three words lightly.

"According to the order."

Zheng Jie respectfully held the memorial high above his head and sent it to Emperor Xianlong.

Having served Emperor Xianlong for so many years, Zheng Jie knew very well how much this master valued the so-called sense of ritual.

Junjunchenchen, father, father and son.

The king is the king, and the minister is the minister.

Don't overstep the threshold.

Emperor Xianlong took the memorial from Zheng Jie and unfolded it gently.

But he was stunned after just one glance.

"The king of Wei is dead."

He couldn't believe his eyes, and after confirming again and again, he couldn't believe that his son Wei Wang Li Lian was really dead.

It was still killed by Zhao Xun. .

"Your Majesty, what did you say?"

Also shocked was Zheng Jie, the internal servant.

Although he presented the memorial to Emperor Xianlong, he had never peeked at it before, so he knew nothing about the content of the memorial.

"The king of Wei was killed by that bastard Zhao Xun!"

Emperor Xianlong burst into a thunderous rage, and the whole person was in a state of madness.

"I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him!"

"Your Majesty, can I let the servants take a look?"

"See for yourself!"

Emperor Xianlong was about to be blown out of anger, so he casually threw the memorial at Zheng Jie.

Zheng Jie hastily and carefully took the memorial and unfolded it to read.

The more he watched, the more startled he became, and in the end he was already in a cold sweat.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Wei is colluding with the Hu clan to rebel. It seems that Zhao Xun has done nothing wrong."

"You fart!"

Emperor Xianlong, who was in a state of anger and dementia, obviously couldn't accept this result, and reprimanded sharply: "It is up to me to decide whether the king of Wei rebelled or not. Why should he make a decision for me as a subject. It is a capital crime for him to kill the vassal king. I want to punish him for his crimes, I want to punish him for his crimes! Someone, pass on my orders, and arrest Zhao Xun and bring him to Beijing!"
