Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 887 Xiangyang!I will definitely be back!
"Have you left?"

Li Yan stood on the Han River with his hands behind his back. It was still a flat boat, surrounded by empty boats floating on the river.

This scene is quite poetic, if it wasn't for the package at his feet, which contained seven heads of Mingzunjiao Dharma protectors...

If it is said that Zunjiao was defeated in the capital, hundreds of congregants were killed and arrested, and lost a secret library that the stingy opponent has never forgotten, which can be said to be a heavy loss, then after this battle, he was severely injured and his vitality was great. hurt.

In just a few years, from one Mingzun, four bishops, twelve Dharma protectors, a powerful religion with hundreds of elite backbones...

It became a weak sect with one Mingzun, two bishops, and three protectors, and more than half of its elite backbone was broken.

Of course, Li Yan was not sure whether the lost bishops and protectors had been replenished in time, but it was okay to have newcomers.

Because of the head of the guardian, once the specific identities of this group of high-level officials are determined, more cult thieves are bound to be dug out through their connections.

Pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, coupled with several provocations in the battle, and killing all his subordinates under Mingzun's attention, this person was able to hold back from the beginning to the end, without showing the slightest flaw, he is indeed the leader of the cult.

But just like this, Li Yan's heart to eliminate evil became more and more determined.

Ming Zun teaches everyone, and the one who gets the most energy is the so-called Ming Zun who walks in the world instead of King Ming.

From the battle just now, it can be found that this person can even control it very flexibly, allowing the Dharma Protector to temporarily have the effect of "King Ming surrenders the Dharma". It can also restore the Mingzun Sect to its heyday.

"Other forces wiped out the high-level elites, leaving only a bare-handed commander, so it is not a big threat, but Mingzun is really different, this person must die!"

So Li Yan turned his gaze to Fang La's barracks.

There's one thing he's curious about.

Will Mingzun give up on Fang La?
If you don't give up, how can you explain to Fang La who has been waiting for Ming Zun's teaching for eight days?

……

"What's going on! Why has there been no news from Mingzun Sect?"

In the Chinese army camp, Fang La pursed her lips tightly and paced back and forth, causing the surrounding guards to look slightly sideways.

It has been [-] days since the siege of Xiangyang, and there is a sense of anxiety brewing in the army.

Attack, unable to attack, retreat, unable to retreat, this is the most tormenting emotion.

But others can be restless. The impression of this Shenggong has always been calm and confident. Is it the backbone of everyone, or is it the first time I have seen Shenggong so anxious...

"Ugh!"

Fang La sighed secretly. In fact, he didn't want these guards to see this appearance, but he was worried about his own safety, so he didn't dare to let the guards stay too far away.

After all, after winning "Zuo Ming", he was still planning to assassinate and seize Xiangyang. If the other party had a similar plan, he couldn't stand under the dangerous wall for the sake of face.

"As long as there is good news from the Mingzun sect, Dong Yunzi will be able to attack again and remove the generals who insist on standing firm. Whether the remaining generals want to avenge the master general or are tempted to capture me, the possibility of leaving the city is very high. increase……"

"But why didn't the other party come for a long time?"

"It won't be...the whole team will be wiped out!"

Fang La murmured, getting more and more frightened, stopped on her feet, and finally couldn't help it: "Go and invite Taoist Master Dong Yunzi!"

After more than an hour, Dong Yunzi appeared in front of him: "I don't know if the Holy Duke is recruiting, so why?"

Because Ming Zunjiao and Taoist Buddha were at odds, Fang La couldn't get the two sides to join forces, so he could only say: "I arranged for some people to enter the city, but there is no news so far, and I don't know whether they will win or lose with 'Zuo Ming', please tell me It's for this purpose!"

Dong Yunzi said indifferently: "Then 'Zuo Ming' has amazing skills, even Pindao's 'Xuantian Hunyuan Sword' can't beat it. I'm afraid Shenggong will be disappointed..."

Fang La squeezed out a smile: "It's because I didn't think carefully, I hope the Taoist priest will investigate the city of Xiangyang again to see what's going on!"

Dong Yunzi raised his palm and saluted: "Good!"

Watching Dong Yunzi leave, Fang La sat back and sighed suddenly: "I was wrong at the beginning, I shouldn't rely on these heretics to take Xiangyang..."

Think about Prince Dan and Jing Ke in the Warring States period, not to mention Jing Ke's assassination failed in the end, even if he succeeded, could the Yan State survive the Qin army?I am afraid that the furious Qin army will slaughter Yanjing until blood flows into rivers...

Therefore, the way of assassination is basically a trick of the rivers and lakes. In the process of fighting for the world, it may not be completely useless, but it cannot be relied on too much.

It's a pity that the importance of Xiangyang City blinded his eyes after all. After the guards didn't take the tactic of using themselves as bait at all, he should have made a decisive decision and retreated directly, so as not to get to the point where it is difficult to ride a tiger.

Just as he was regretting, there was a buzzing sound, and the writing brush on the table suddenly trembled slightly.

Fang La thought it was an assassin at first, so she got up suddenly, and the guards on the left and right immediately stood in front of her.

After watching together for a while, Fang La's eyes flickered, she walked forward, tried to hold the pen, spread out a piece of paper, and let the pen drive her wrist to write: "Shenggong, 'Zuo Ming' set up an ambush, The subordinates have failed the great trust of the Holy Duke, be careful of Dong Yunzi, this person may be an internal response."

Seeing the words "Being up to you", Fang La's muscles twitched, and he said in a low voice, "Ming Zun?"

The pen trembled slightly, but there was no response.

Fang La thought for a while, and realized that the other party might not be able to hear her, so she began to write: "Ming Zun?"

Sure enough, the pen started to write again: "It's my subordinate..."

Fang La's eyes were fixed.

Ming Zun used to be mysterious and mysterious, at least there was still a figure with a clear voice, but now he actually used such heresy methods, what is going on?

Fang La took a deep breath and continued to write: "Dong Yunzi is the internal response of the thief, how did you know?"

The pen paused and wrote: "It's just speculation..."

Fang La's eyes narrowed.

Since Dong Yunzi's time of defection was still very short, he did not fully trust the other party, but he did not doubt the other party's position either.

The reason is simply that this person is simply not keen on implementing specifics.

If it is the enemy's internal spy, he must always participate in the discussion in order to eavesdrop on the intelligence. The other party has a standard look of idle clouds and wild cranes, but Ming Zun says he is a traitor. This is not very credible. Could it be an excuse for his own failure?

However, Fang La did not get too entangled in this matter, but wrote the most urgent question: "Can Xiangyang City still go down?"

The pen began to write: "As long as 'Zuo Ming' leaves, I will teach Shenggong to go down the city..."

Fang La couldn't contain the anger in his heart anymore, with a ferocious look on his face, he danced wildly and wrote cursive script: "I conquered this place myself, and the army lasted for seventeen days. In order to wait for you and your subordinates to gather, Just nine full days!"

"People eat horses chewing horses, and the army rations are wasted. If this continues, without the Yan army attacking, my Jinghu foundation will be destroyed by itself!"

"I don't want to listen to excuses, if you can go to the city, give me a confirmation letter!!"

The pen paused for a moment, and wrote a short answer: "Please withdraw the troops, Sheng Gong."

The words on the paper slowly disappeared, and Fang La dropped the pen directly. As soon as his right hand left the pen holder, he trembled and had to hold it with his left hand, and sat down slowly, whimpering in his throat.

Not only is it difficult for him to retreat without success, but also because of this retreat, if he wants to attack again in the future, the difficulty will inevitably become greater, or even doubled!
And if the city of Xiangyang cannot be conquered, the land of Xianghan will not belong to him, so what is the use of occupying the strategically important area of ​​Jinghu, Jingxiang cannot be complete, so why fight for the world?
Sitting in the seat, after an unknown amount of time, the personal guard suddenly announced: "Shenggong, Taoist Master Dongyunzi is back!"

Fang La's eyes moved slightly, he looked at the guards in the tent, and then said slowly: "Please come in, Taoist priest!"

Dong Yunzi floated in, saluted calmly and said: "Sheng Gong, there is no change in Xiangyang City. Although the poor Taoists have not clashed with 'Zuo Ming' again, but this person's aura is in the yamen, and the guards are much stricter."

Fang La was silent for a while, and asked: "The Taoist priest means that the way of assassination is difficult to achieve, so it is necessary to retreat?"

Dong Yunzi nodded: "I don't understand military matters, but the morale of the two armies can still be distinguished. The morale of the Yan army in Xiangyang is high, while the morale of the army under Shenggong's command is impetuous. If this stalemate continues, the Yan army will really leave the city. Sheng Gong will really encounter danger, retreating troops is a good strategy..."

"What the Taoist priest said is true!"

Fang La was relieved, this would not be an internal response, otherwise he should persuade himself to continue to stick to it, sent Dong Yunzi out, transferred it back to the account, remained silent for a moment, and finally said in a low voice: "Go and invite the three generals Come!"

Under the instruction of the personal guards, Li Tianrun, Si Xingfang and Pang Wanchun soon came before Fang La without hesitation: "Retreat!"

The three of them were stunned for a moment, then they breathed a sigh of relief, but they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

When Fang La confidently waited for the blessing of fate before, they really expected a miracle to happen, and the city would mess up and bring about a turning point in the battle, but it still didn't work...

Doesn't the Holy Duke have a destiny?

As soon as this thought came up, it was forcibly suppressed. Li Tianrun and Si Xingfang clasped their fists together: "Yes!"

Pang Wanchun carried out the tactics that were drawn up at that time: "The last general wishes to lead three thousand elites here to deal with the Yan army. If he doesn't behead the Yan general, he vows not to return to Jiangling!"

Fang La shook his head slowly: "There is no need for this. Since we have withdrawn our troops, Fang La has lost this battle. Why put General Pang and the three thousand elites in danger in order to regain some dignity? How can Fang La be worthy of Jing Xiang?" The common people are worthy of the soldiers of the three armies?"

The three generals were immediately moved, and they all bowed down: "Sheng Gong!!"

Fang La waved his hand, walked to the front of the tent, looked at the outline of Xiangyang City in the distance, his eyes were a little suspicious, and after adjusting his breathing, he smiled and said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs, and a mere failure is nothing to lose." What? Xiangyang! I, Fang La, will definitely come back!"
