The king will never go to court

Chapter 236 Chapter 245: No Man's Land

Most of them had accompanied the Crown Prince of Qian Kingdom on the southern expedition, and now the Crown Prince has established a foundation in the southern part of Yan Kingdom.

If they want to evacuate, General Longyao Li Fengze is currently in a dilemma.

Long Yaojun's relatives are all in Qianguo. If they go to the south, they will definitely be favored by the prince, but Dajun's family members are still in Qianguo.

If they withdraw to the north, once they are severely fined, it will inevitably cause another riot.

At this time, what Li Fengze was worried about was also the worry in the hearts of all the lieutenant generals.

Although the elders of the various sects sitting on the side were dissatisfied with the "mountain, river and forest affairs" promulgated by the imperial court, they could only take one step forward and watch one step without getting the final decision of the sect.

"So that's the case, don't worry about that."

Thinking that some major event had happened to Long Yaojun, the old head of Tianyan Academy looked softly, and slowly swept over the people in the tent, and then said, "Actually, the king of Wu knew about our coming here. King Wu asked us to come here to investigate the blood sacrifice."

"really?"

Li Fengze was full of joy in his heart, if Lao Shanchang came forward, it was at the invitation of King Wu, I believe that the Long Yaojun under his command would not be so popular anymore.

"Lao Shanzhang, King Wu really wants me to watch the north retreat?"

Many generals present showed joyful expressions on their faces.

There was really nothing they could do about the terrifying blood mist outside the capital.

It is useless to stay here all the time, and even have to keep losing lieutenant soldiers.

The old head of Tianyan Academy shook his head, "That's not true, King Wu just asked the gentlemen of Tianji Pavilion to investigate the matter of blood mist."

"This!!!"

The sliver of hope that everyone had originally had, under the explanation of the old mountain chief, fell into a trough again.

"However, I believe King Wu will not disregard everyone's lives."

Lao Shanchang saw that the crowd showed disappointment again, and comforted him, "Everyone from Tianji Pavilion and I came here to hope that Long Yaojun can stay near Kaijing for the time being."

"Why?"

As a student, Li Fengze didn't want to interrupt the teacher's words, but the life and death of tens of thousands of troops were at stake.

If it wasn't for the arrival of the old mountain chief and the disciples of Tianji Pavilion, they would have planned to withdraw their troops privately.

"We've actually been in the east for a while, if it wasn't for the weirdness of the blood mist. We should still be in the east at this time."

Lao Shanzhang's eyes fell on the white-robed man, and he continued, "I am afraid that Kaijing City has been completely controlled by this strange blood mist."

"Yes, that's why we Tianji Pavilion decided to come here with the elder brother."

The white-robed man nodded slightly, responding to the old mountain chief's words.

Hearing this, everyone in the camp showed a look of horror, and many people's faces were already a little pale.

At first, everyone just knew that the red blood mist was terrifying and could make people lose their minds. Unexpectedly, Kaijing City was completely controlled by the blood mist.

"According to our observation, this blood mist needs to be nourished by living beings. Therefore, we need to open up a no-man's land outside Kaijing City."

"This no-man's land must completely block all living beings, and the red blood mist around the capital cannot be allowed to get any nourishment. Therefore, the old man hopes that you Long Yaojun can stay."

"this."

Li Fengze hesitated for a moment, then looked at the many lieutenant generals behind him.

Everyone bowed their heads silently.

"Millions of people in Kaijing City have completely lost their sanity and become blood-colored puppets. I'm afraid the tens of thousands of us can't do anything useful if we stay here."

"That's right, let's leave this place as soon as possible. Whether it's going to the south or Bohai County. In short, this place is too dangerous!"

"General, you have to think twice, these are all the children of Long Yao. You must not choose the wrong one!"

Behind Li Fengze was an old general with white beard and hair, who came to him and reminded him in a low voice.

"Yes, here are all the children of Longyao brought out by myself. Any decision I make is responsible for their wives, children, and children."

Li Fengze was deep in thought. If he evacuated at this time, the army might be spared, but if he stayed, many people would be swallowed by the red blood mist.

Just when everyone was hesitating, the man in white robe stood up, came to the old mountain chief, and said in a deep voice to the people in the camp, "Everyone, listen to me."

For a while, the tent became quiet.The person in front of him was from Tianji Pavilion in Yunan City, and everyone in the camp, whether they were the elders of the sect or the generals in the army, all looked over.

"Sir, please speak!" Li Fengze lightly raised his right hand, signaling for everyone behind him to silence.

"Before, I was a guest at Tianyan Academy in Kyoto with my students. It was your King Wu who ordered someone to send you news about the blood sacrifice in Kaijing City. That's why I came here with my students and Brother Shanzhang."

"If so, your King Wu doesn't know what's going on outside the Kai capital, so how could you let us come here?"

Listening to the white-robed man's explanation, everyone in the tent nodded.Although they still didn't understand King Wu's intentions, everyone did not show resistance anymore.

The white-robed man went on to say, "Right now, there is nothing wrong with you if you choose to leave. But let this weird blood mist continue to spread. It is bound to spread to the north. Maybe it will spread to Qianguo, or even the entire southern region."

"At that time, you, as well as your wives, children, and children will all become nourishment for the blood mist. At that time, where else can you hide?"

"This" everyone showed a look of panic.

The white-robed man saw everyone's facial expressions in his eyes, including panic, astonishment, worry, and bewilderment.

Everyone in the camp fell into a depressing atmosphere.

First Yan Country was shrouded in blood mist, and then Qian Country, everyone lost their vitality and became puppets just like the blood-colored puppets they had seen.

While everyone was still in shock, the next sentence of the white-robed man woke up everyone in the tent.

"If we can't control the spread of the blood mist, we can only completely isolate the entire Gan country!"

Even the old head of Tianyan Academy sitting behind him frowned tightly when he heard this.

Among the dozens of dynasties in the Southern Region, the Feng family would definitely choose this way for their own rule.

"At that time, even if some of you want to escape from Qian State and try to go north to Jin State or Chu State, I'm afraid it will be impossible."

"Sir! Will there really be such a day?" Li Fengze woke up from the horror, and the original terrifying picture in his mind was finally completely wiped away by him.

"The scariness of the red blood mist, you should have seen it before."

The old mountain head of Tianyan Academy gave the white-robed man a look, signaling him to sit back to his original position first.

"Nowadays, the only way to save ourselves is to completely create a no-man's land."

"Shan Zhang, just tell me, what do we need to do?"

Without waiting for everyone's consent, Li Fengze has made up his mind to lead everyone to create a no-man's land.

"Will"

The old general on the side wanted to dissuade him, but he still didn't have time.

"It's about ten miles away from the nearest edge of the blood mist."

The old mountain head of Tianyan Academy cast a questioning look on everyone.

After a moment of silence in the camp, a young general in charge of scouting came out from the crowd and replied respectfully, "Reporting to the head of the mountain, this camp is about forty miles away from Kaijing City, and less than ten miles away from the edge of the blood mist last night." .”

"Who are you?" The old mountain head of Tianyan Academy asked immediately when he heard the other party calling him mountain head, but he had no impression of this person in his mind.

"Hui Shanchang, he is the student's son, Li Rubin." Li Fengze replied with an embarrassed smile.

"So it's Fengze's child."

The old mountain head of Tianyan Academy showed a kind smile and nodded slightly, indicating that he already knew.

Then he looked in the direction of the man in white robe and asked, "Can you deduce a safe distance?"

"I'll try again. No problem"

The white-robed man replied without hesitation.

Hearing such an affirmative answer, everyone in the camp smiled happily, as long as they can be saved.

Evacuating from the hill last night, the white-robed man has been deducing the flow speed and trajectory of the blood mist in the formation.

Now that we know the closest distance, we can gradually deduce the layout of no man's land.

"We withdrew for fifty miles one after another." The white-robed man finally said after deduction, the phantom of the Taiji diagram on his fingertips continuously reflected the mountains and rivers here.

"Fifty miles?!"

With a serious expression on his face, the old mountain chief asked, "Is fifty miles enough?"

The rest of the people felt a little relieved when they heard that they could retreat fifty miles.

But after hearing Lao Shanchang's worried tone, he frowned again and looked in the direction of the man in white robe.

"Fifty miles is the innermost circle, that is, with Kaijing City as the center, within a hundred miles is the flow range of blood mist. From one hundred miles to two hundred miles, we want to create a no-man's land and drive out any creatures in it." go out."

The white-robed man pointed to the phantom of the Taiji diagram reflected in front of everyone's eyes, and his fingertips streamed to draw a circle on the diagram. The innermost circle was a red eye-catching circle, and the outermost circle was a yellow circle.

There is blood red inside the red circle.

"All cities, villages, and sects within a hundred miles from the yellow circle to the red circle must be relocated. No living things can be left behind. All trees, mountains and rivers will be destroyed, and hundreds of feet of ground will be dug."

The white-robed man looked at the people in the tent and continued, "Do you understand?"

"As for the matter of digging the ground, I will trouble the disciples of the major sects accompanying the army this time."

After the white-robed man finished speaking, the old head of Tianyan Academy said in the direction of the elders of the various sects.

"Naturally, when encountering such an unprecedented fear, our sects will definitely do our best."

The leading elders nodded slightly in the direction of Lao Shanzhang.

Afterwards, the Longyao army stationed horseshoes in formation, and the [-] troops were divided into five groups, facing the four directions of Kaijing City's southeast, northwest, and a group of Chinese troops dispatched in the middle.

At the same time, Longyao General Li Fengze wrote two memorials about the proposals of the old mountain chief and the white-robed man in Tianji Pavilion, one was sent to the capital quickly, and the other was sent to the south in a hurry.

During the following ten days, with Kaijing City as the center and radius of [-] miles, the Long Yao Army of Qian Kingdom and the major sects began to build no-man's land.

All the warriors, people and livestock of the Yan Kingdom's sects, cities, and villages in this area can be relocated upon request.

Once someone is found fleeing in the direction of Kaijing, they will be caught and directly served as hard labor.

Faced with the persecution of Qianguo's iron cavalry, the people in the cities and villages near Kaijing all complained, but no one dared to resist, so they could only keep migrating to distant places.

After the people migrated away, the elders and disciples of Jinding Pavilion, Lingxu Sword Sect, Qishamen, Zheyue Palace, Miaoyinfang, and Xuelongzong began to "destroy mountains and forests".

All of a sudden, the empty cities, towns, and villages were burned, the mountains and rivers were dry, the earth collapsed, and the mountains and jungles were also burned.

Under the blue sky, black smoke billowed.

The common people looked at the direction of their former homes and turned into smoke, and they all cried.

Some warriors resisted with all their strength, but eventually became "tools" for the disciples of the major sects of the Qian Kingdom to practice their hands!
Pinghu County, a county of Yan State in the south of Bohai City, has now become a territory of Qian State.

Ordinary people who fled from the south can be seen on the major official roads, including some martial artists from the rivers and lakes.

Occasionally there will be some conflicts between warriors.

The Xuanhe House in the Gaomen Courtyard also has military guards to escort the convoy, but ordinary people at the bottom can only be driven to walk on the field ridges on both sides of the official road.

A convoy from north to south is extremely dazzling in this torrent going north.

He glanced at the endless fleeing crowd on both sides of the official road, including brocade clothes and rags.

Most of the people looked disheveled and hungry.

"The attack of the Qian Kingdom is really a crime! Look at the refugees along the way, where are they going?"

In one of the carriages, the deacon of Tianji Pavilion of the Imperial Dynasty in a blue Taoist robe said coldly. "When the capital is opened and the matter of the blood sacrifice is resolved, the imperial dynasty must send troops to help the Feng family manage the southern region well."

Bai Zichun, who had been resting with his eyes closed all the time, was startled for a moment, and then came back to his senses, "Don't be fooled by appearances."

"Such a large area of ​​fleeing should be caused by a major incident in the south. Didn't you see that there are still cavalry from the Qianguo in the middle to maintain order?"

Hearing this, another deacon in the car looked carefully, and indeed found that there was a team of iron cavalry among the refugees going north to maintain order.

"Are they relocating the people? The Gan people are trying to completely ruin the foundation of the Yan Kingdom. It's a desperate strategy."

The deacon who was the first to speak sarcastically expressed his thoughts.

While the three of them were discussing the refugees going north, more than a dozen strong winds rushed towards them from different directions!
"Huh? There are assassins!"

Bai Zichun's eyes opened slightly, and a breath rushed out of the carriage in an instant, directly blowing away more than ten strong winds that came from the sneak attack.

Soon, the official road began to be overthrown, and hundreds of silver armored cavalry guarding in front fought against a group of black-clothed killers!
"You gangsters! How dare you persecute the people of my country of Yan like this! I will definitely kill you all today!"

The man in black held a jet-black iron umbrella in his hand, every time he waved it was a powerful black whirlwind.

More than a dozen silver armored cavalry have been shaken from their horses.

"Assassin! Enemy attack!"

At the same moment, the horn sounded from the front of the convoy.

Hearing that there was an assassin ahead, Xie Wufeng, who was sitting in the luxury car, looked calm. When he got Li Fengze's memorial, he knew that something like this would happen.

"My lord?"

Wang He, the commander of the silver armored cavalry, asked softly outside the carriage.

"Just kill it."

The tone is flat, but it reveals endless killing intent.

The old head of Tianyan Academy and the people of Tianji Pavilion in Yunan City failed to find a way to break the blood sacrifice formation, but chose the most stupid way to create a "no man's land."

Xie Wufeng threw the memorial in his hand directly on the desk beside him, and shook his head helplessly.
