Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

"Monster, monster..."

On the top of the city, seeing those skeleton soldiers with terrifying faces, Shi Ming felt extremely terrified, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

In his decades of life, he has always regarded ghosts as absurd legends.However, seeing the skeleton soldiers beyond common sense now is really unacceptable to him.

Even if he is a well-educated official, let alone those uneducated and illiterate people and soldiers?

They believed in the theory of gods and ghosts very much. When they saw that the Bei'an army could manipulate skeleton soldiers to fight, they immediately thought it was an army of gods or monsters.Fighting against such an army scares them more than killing them directly.

For a time, tens of thousands of people threw away their weapons, and the front of the Haizhou Army collapsed in an instant.

Once the front line is defeated, the fall of the city is imminent.

Shi Ming felt that all the strength in his body was drained, and his body flickered and he sat on the ground.

"Lord State Shepherd..."

The personal guard hurried over to help him up, but Shi Ming waved his hand and stood up with difficulty.

He looked at the Bei'an army coming towards the city, and then turned his head to look inside the city.

Some militias composed of common people are still preparing to fight. They have not climbed the city wall, so they cannot see the situation outside.They are still holding weapons, and their faces are full of emotions such as tension, fear and excitement.

Even if these militiamen are sent out again, what's the point?
Shi Ming understood that the general situation was over, and now that he released these militiamen, they would either die or surrender, and they would not be able to cause trouble to the Bei'an Army at all.

"Let everyone lay down their weapons and go home."

"My lord?! That city..."

"The city can't be defended anymore." Shi Ming said sadly.

He now only has despair in his heart. A vanguard of about [-] people from the Bei'an Army can defeat him in Haizhou.Then when the big troops arrive, who in the whole of Jiangnan can resist?
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of Wang Ben, who he had killed, and the latter's sentence "the Bei'an army has ruled the world has become settled" echoed in his ears at this moment.

Perhaps Wang Ben is right, resistance has no other meaning except to let Haizhou people die.

As the state shepherd of Haizhou, Shi Ming couldn't bear to let more Haizhou people die.

Seeing this, the guards looked at each other in blank dismay.

They saw Shi Ming's haggard face, sunken eyes, and his whole body seemed to be 20 years old suddenly, as if he was dying.

Whoa!

The crowd immediately dispersed.

Shi Ming put on an expression that it was over, and the other soldiers who still wanted to survive naturally had to find another way of life.

Most of the guards ran to the city, hoping to hide.One of them even took off his armor while running, threw away his sword, and pretended to be an ordinary person as much as possible.

Shi Ming stared blankly at the crowd fleeing in all directions, and then turned his head to look at the main battlefield.The disciples of the Tang Sect who he had placed high hopes on were almost gone, probably dead.

On the other hand, the Bei'an Army, how many people there were when they came, is not at all small in size now.

There were few casualties to be seen.

Moreover, the two extremely powerful generals, Zhao Yun and Li Yuanba, had already rushed to the city wall at this time.Both of them flew up to the city wall to complete the final capture.

Shi Ming didn't run away, his heart sank, and he pulled out the long sword at his waist with a bang.

"The sky has no eyes, the sky has no eyes!!!"

After a long sigh, before Zhao Yun and Li Yuanba rushed up to capture him alive, he swiped his long sword in front of his neck.

puff……

Blood gushed out, and Shi Ming fell to the ground, dying with regret.

Zhao Yun took a step back, but failed to stop him, so he couldn't help frowning.

It would be better if Shi Ming, a high-ranking state pastoral official, could be captured alive.Now that Shi Ming committed suicide, it was not easy for him to explain to Su Yuan.

However, Zhao Yun didn't think too much, what had happened was irreversible, so he focused on cleaning up the remnants of the soldiers on the city wall.

After it was absolutely safe near the city wall, Su Yuan and others came in from outside the city.

Several Bei'an Army soldiers carried Shi Ming's body to Su Yuan. Su Yuan knew from Zhao Yun that it was a suicide, and said with emotion: "This old thing still has some bones, but it's a pity that it's an enemy."

He still has some respect for enemies who commit suicide, cowards don't dare to do such things.

But it's a pity, it's a pity, as an enemy, Su Yuan must also hope that this old thing will die.

He said to the crowd: "Attention everyone, don't relax now. We just knocked down the city gate, and there may be many soldiers in the city who want to fight us in the streets. Don't be careless."

"Yes!" Everyone said in unison.

Su Yuan asked the special warfare teams trained by Tanya to investigate and advance respectively, and slowly investigate other dangers in the city.

He himself stayed on top of the inner city for the time being. Although he had suffered a few rounds of heavy artillery, it was still fairly well preserved.

Not long after, several Bei'an soldiers brought Tang Ming over.

Tang Ming's hands were tied behind his back at this moment, and he had no chance to use a hidden weapon.Even if there were many masters of the rivers and lakes around, and Su Yuan was protected by the four swords of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, there would be no possibility of success with hidden weapons.

"You said earlier that Miss Tang is a friend of Bei'an Army. Do you know her whereabouts?"

Tang Ming didn't care about being bound, he was more concerned about Tang Ziyu's safety.

Su Yuan said: "Miss Tang is safe."

"...Where is she now, Jiangbei?"

"You might as well talk about yourself first." Su Yuan asked, "Looking at you, you seem to know the inside story of the previous Tangmen battle."

Hearing this, Tang Ming nodded.

"I know."

"So, you know that Tang Lin is an enemy of the Tang Sect, but you still work hard for him?"

"This is just a stopgap measure!" Tang Ming distinguished, "Now that Miss Tang is safe and has not fallen into Tang Lin's hands, I will naturally not listen to him."

"Oh."

"Your Excellency...can you tell me where Miss Tang is? I want to find her. Let's plan revenge together."

"You don't need to look for her. She will come to Jiangnan soon." After Su Yuan finished speaking, Tang Ming's eyes lit up.

"However, I can't trust you yet. Before Miss Tang arrives, you should obediently be a prisoner."

"... I understand."

Tang Ming did not object, he knew he was not qualified to object.

Previously, the Bei'an army's call to their Tangmen disciples was just "leave them alive for now", but they didn't say that they would let them go.

No matter how the Bei'an Army treated them, they had nothing to do.

Now Tang Ming will not resist the Bei'an Army, he just wants to wait for Tang Ziyu to arrive, and then work together to find a way to kill Tang Lin and avenge the old castle owner.

Su Yuan asked Tang Ming to be taken down.

Half a day later, after the state shepherd's mansion was cleaned up, Su Yuan moved in.He planned to stay here temporarily, and wait for Qi Jiguang to bring people here before proceeding to the next step.

……

Capital port.

On this day, many people arrived at the same time.

There is Tang Ziyu, who has collected and purchased a large amount of poison materials in Mozhou, which is enough to deploy two rounds of Peacock Feather ammunition.Perhaps the power is not as powerful as the materials collected in Shuzhou, but the effect can also be four-fifths of the previous one.

When she learned that Su Yuan had gone to Jiangnan, she immediately rushed back to the capital without stopping, and wanted to follow Qi Jiguang's "bus" to Jiangnan.

She didn't go to Qinjiang this time like she did when she came to the capital, because she had no choice at that time.Now that she has a choice, she naturally chooses the safest route.

Before taking revenge, she didn't allow herself to take any unnecessary risks.

Also coming to the port was Jiawu from Beifeng City.

The last time he came to the capital to provide information about Jiayi, Su Yuan promised him that he would take him with him when he went to Jiangnan.

Su Yuan set off in a hurry before and did not wait for Jiawu, but he was notified.So he will set off with Qi Jiguang just like Tang Ziyu.

After Jiawu came to the barracks, Qi Jiguang specially met him and gave him the "sacred stone".

Jia Wu was puzzled, not knowing what this meant.

Qi Jiguang told him that this was what Su Yuan meant.Su Yuan told him before he left that when Jia Wu came, holding this stone for him might help the wound on his face and his practice.

Jiawu was quite moved when he found out about it. He never thought that an unknown person, a very inconspicuous role in the Bei'an Army, would make Su Yuan miss him so much.

When he was moved, he took the stone with him and never left it.

A few days later, the weather was clear and cloudless, and Qi Jiguang knew that the good day he had been waiting for had come.

He announced that the Bei'an Army fleet will depart today and head to Haizhou!

The sergeants couldn't wait, and Jiawu, Tang Ziyu and the others could not wait to spread their wings and go to Jiangnan immediately.

A total of [-] warships, carrying a large amount of food, ammunition, clothing and other supplies, set off from the port of the capital.

……

Yunzhou.

More than half a year ago, when the Southern Zhou Dynasty established its capital here, it made this place quite prosperous.

Aristocratic families, upstarts, and merchants from various states in the south of the Yangtze River came here in large numbers, creating a city full of traffic.

But to this day, with the disappearance of the royal family, the fleeing of ministers, and the complete collapse of the Southern Zhou court, the city seemed to have its spine taken away in an instant, and it fell to the ground all at once.

The prosperity of the past is like a beautiful bubble bursting and dissipating. People used to yearn for this place, but now they are fleeing here.The streets that used to be bustling with people are now almost deserted.

Occasionally, some carriages and horses passed by, and they all galloped wildly. The faces of the coachmen were all gloomy, and their eyes were full of anxiety.

In the palace, all the valuables were taken away, leaving only desolation and desolation.

The eunuchs and maids didn't know where to flee for their lives, and the huge palace was terribly silent and eerie.

In this dead silence, a voice suddenly sounded from the hall.

It was a scream.

"what!!!!"

The heart-piercing scream came from a woman.

Beneath this voice, there were still many "woo woo woo" voices. It seemed that some people had their mouths stuffed with cloth strips, making it difficult to utter a full sound.

Zhou Cheng looked at the scene in front of him, his heart was filled with fear, his eyes rolled white, and he almost fainted.

He wanted to yell loudly, but couldn't.Although his hands and feet were not bound, he could not move.

There are more than a dozen other people in the same situation as him.

All of these people were pinned to the acupoints all over their bodies, unable to move.

The only ones who could act were the young men sitting on the dragon chair on the steps in front of them.

A one.

At this moment, there was an elderly woman lying in front of A, she was already dead, and a big hole was exposed in her chest.Her blood seemed to drain from that hole, so that she had just died, and she looked like a zombie who had been sucked dry.

Jia Yi's face was ruddy, and the corner of his mouth was smiling, as if he was recalling the feeling just now.

In the eyes of Zhou Cheng and the others, this scene was as horrifying as the most terrifying nightmare.What's even more frightening is that this is not a nightmare, it's reality!
Jiayi looked at the terrified crowd, and said with a faint smile: "Are you all so scared? There's no need. Anyway, Su Yuan won't let you go. It's better to die at the hands of Bei'an Army than at my hands. This is also a good thing." .”

"Woooo!!!"

Zhou Cheng opened his mouth excitedly to say something, Jia Yi was a little curious, raised his finger and tapped lightly.

A ray of true energy was sent out, and Zhou Cheng's dumb acupoint was released from the air, and Zhou Cheng was able to speak immediately.

"You bastard!!" Zhou Cheng yelled, "I'm going to kill you! How dare you do this to our Great Zhou royal family! Damn it! Bastard!!!"

Zhou Cheng was dazzled by anger and cursed loudly.

A Yi was not angry, but a little disappointed: "I thought you had some insight, but it turned out that you said such nonsense."

He made a gesture to continue pressing Zhou Cheng's dumb acupoint, but the latter reacted and shouted loudly: "The dragon guards! The dragon guards!! Where are you! Come out and save me!!!!"

Before the crisis of life and death, Zhou Cheng's brain was working rapidly.He thought of the dragon guards who had protected the Great Zhou Emperor for generations.He knew that this family did not die out at the beginning, but came to the south of the Yangtze River together.

Now that the emperor is in a life-and-death crisis, where are those guys?
Zhou Cheng was extremely anxious, but Jia Yi's joking voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Are you looking for them?"

Zhou Cheng glanced at Jia suddenly, and then froze for a second.

I saw the dragon guards, who were covered in armor all over, standing beside the dragon chair, beside Jiayi.

Zhou Cheng was stunned for a while, then murmured: "You, you actually bought them..."

"Buying?" A shook his head, "The dragon guards will not be bought."

"Then why are they standing on your side!!" Zhou Cheng angrily yelled at the members of the Dragon Guardian Clan, "Why are you still standing there! Didn't you see that this traitor wanted to kill everyone in the Great Zhou Royal Family! kill him!!!"

All the members of the Dragon Guardian Clan remained motionless.

Zhou Cheng couldn't figure it out at all, but Jia Yi sneered and stood up slowly.

"Idiot." He looked down at Zhou Cheng condescendingly, the disdain in his eyes was undisguised, "Until now, you idiot have not realized a simple fact."

"Simple...facts..."

"I am also the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty." Jia Yi said coldly.

Boom!

Like a thunderbolt from the blue sky hitting the top of his head, Zhou Cheng's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, unable to speak.

The other members of the royal family of the Great Zhou who had their Ya points lit had the same expressions.

This insane guy is also the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty?how is this possible?

If he is also a royal family, why did he kill his fellow clan like this?

He said he was from the royal family, so could it be that he was the illegitimate son of Emperor Qingxiang?How is it possible... If that is the case, it is impossible for the dragon guards to protect him first rather than protect Zhou Cheng!Zhou Cheng is the current emperor!
Then who is he! ! !
