Heaven rewards those who work hard: There is no bottleneck in my martial arts

Chapter 228 The news of the great victory spread, and the whole court was shocked!

Looking at the army in front of him, Huo Yu, who was sitting on the horse, turned pale and his figure was shaky.

God is going to kill me!

"General, what are we going to do next?" Among the crowd, a general following Huo Yu asked blankly.

Huo Yu looked behind him, and Zhao Hongming was already chasing after him.

There was no escape for them.

Huo Yu gritted his teeth, then looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Surrender!"

The soldiers around him looked at him in shock, unable to believe that Huo Yu would make such a decision.

They came all the way here, but to end up in such a situation in just a few days was like child's play. The faces of everyone who followed him all looked resentful.

"General, can we just sit back and wait for death? If we work together, we might be able to defeat King Wu and have the possibility of escaping."

Huo Yu was completely innocent: "Even the Wudan realm elders from the Zhengyi Palace are no match for him. Can our cultivation level be comparable to those elders?"

"There is no chance."

"How can a man give up so easily!" A general said angrily: "Either live or die! I, Wang, will never be a general who surrenders! Come on!"

The angry general turned his horse and rushed towards the army of Wei warriors. He raised his sword and pointed at Wu Qi, who was under the banner of the general in front, and shouted to the formation: "General, please tell me your name. Do you dare to fight me?"

Even if he dies, he will be buried with several people.

However, the general on the opposite side did not respond at all, and all he received in response was a shower of arrows.

Arrows rained down, covering his location.

Each arrow carries a sharp sound of wind, as if it is tearing the air apart.

The general surnamed Wang's expression changed, he activated his true energy and waved the long sword in his hand.

His movements were steady and powerful, and a set of knife skills could not be splashed with water or penetrated by needles. Each knife hit the flying arrows accurately, making a crisp metal impact sound.

This kind of arrow is not enough to pose a threat to a warrior like him.

But as the number increased, it was more than enough to consume his physical strength and energy.

Before he could deal with the last batch of arrow rain, the next batch of sword rain had already followed, leaving him with no time to even take a breath.

puff.

An arrow broke through his defense and shot into his shoulder, blood staining his armor.

The general named Wang shook his body. He pulled out the arrow from the arrow and wanted to continue fighting to the death.

At this moment, an arrow as thick as a thumb followed and penetrated his chest like lightning, pinning him to the ground.

He looked up with difficulty.

He saw a middle-aged man holding a powerful bow under the general's flag in the distance, staring at him expressionlessly.

The string of the powerful bow was still trembling, but the arrow on it had disappeared.

The armor of General Wang was broken and covered with blood and dust. He took a deep breath and held the arrow stuck in his chest tightly, as if he wanted to crush it.

shhhhhh!
Countless arrows fell, turning him into a hedgehog, and the hand holding the arrows fell down weakly.

"I surrender, I surrender!"

Behind him, Huo Yu took the initiative to dismount, kneeling on the ground, raising the knife above his head with both hands.

Huo Yu's voice of surrender echoed on the battlefield.

The soldiers who followed him around looked at this once majestic general surrendering so decisively, and they were at a loss for a moment.

"stop!"

Wu Qi, who was in Wei Wu's army, gave the order to stop. The advancing Wei Wu soldiers stopped and stood in front of Huo Yu and others.

Behind Huo Yu, Zhao Hongming and his men were already chasing after him. When he saw the Wei soldiers led by Wu Qi, he was a little surprised.

He did not expect that Wu Qi's army would arrive so quickly.

In his expectation, it would take about five or six days.

When Wu Qi, who was in the army, saw Zhao Hongming and others, he led his chariot to break away from the army, rushed in front of Zhao Hongming, got off the car and knelt down and said: "Wu Qi, the last general, pays homage to your highness!"

Zhao Hongming sat on the horse and said condescendingly: "Why did General Wu arrive so soon?"

Wu Qi replied: "The general abandoned his baggage troops on the road and marched in a hurry. He happened to arrive here this morning."

"No wonder. General Wu came at the right time. Otherwise, it would have taken a while for me to capture the Huo family judge."

Without saying another word, Zhao Hongming drove his horse around behind Huo Yu and asked, "General Huo, can you plead guilty?"

"If you become a king or lose a bandit, please listen to your Majesty's decision!"

"I will never repent!" Zhao Hongming's face remained unchanged as he whipped out a long whip and hit Huo Yu in the face.

Huo Yu only felt burning pain on his face, and warm blood flowed from his cheeks.

"As an important minister of the Wei Dynasty, you secretly mobilized troops to the capital and told me that you are the winner and the loser? Are you worthy?"

Huo Yu was silent.

Zhao Hongming ordered: "Come, take them back to the palace and hand them over to the imperial court."

"Yes!"

After Zhao Hongming gave an order, soldiers quickly came forward and tied them up one by one with iron chains.

Huo Yu and others seemed to have accepted their fate and no longer struggled.

"Your Highness, the criminal would like to ask, what is going on with my two unfilial sons now?" Huo Yu asked in a lucky tone as if he had remembered something.

Zhao Hongming raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Dead!"

Huo Yu's face turned pale, and he then asked: "What does the imperial court plan to do with us?"

"According to the crime of rebellion, the nine Yihuo clans."

After hearing this, Huo Yu gritted his teeth and knelt down again and said: "General Sin, here is the secret of immortality. I beg Your Highness to raise your noble hand and leave a bloodline for the Huo family. General Sin will also remember Your Highness's great kindness and virtue."

The secret of immortality?

"Oh?" Zhao Hongming suddenly became interested and said, "Tell me about it."

"The mystery of immortality is related to the Sword-making Villa." Huo Yu said directly: "They once obtained the information of an ancient family and mastered the way of worshiping gods. Not only that, they also got a glimpse of the secrets of the immortal way, and even entered God’s way of eternal life.”

"If your Highness goes in to investigate, you will definitely gain something."

Immortality? !

Zhao Hongming vaguely remembered mentioning these words in ancient books.

That was a world where many immortals and gods lived before the collapse of heaven.

He always thought that it was just a vague statement, but he didn't expect that it actually existed.

Involuntarily, Zhao Hongming thought of the face behind the ancestor of the Huo family, and his expression became serious.

"That's it... ha!" Zhao Hongming put away his thoughts and said coldly: "Who knows whether what you said is true or false? You and Zhujian Villa are the same as each other, maybe you want to use Zhujian Villa's hand to replace you Revenge, right?”

"It seems that the nine clans of your Huo family still want to be barbarians."

Huo Yu looked stunned.

Zhao Hongming didn't give him a chance to defend himself and shouted: "Take them all away!"

"Your Highness, everything I said is absolutely true!"

No matter how Huo Yu tried to defend himself, Zhao Hongming remained unmoved.

"General Wu Qi, you will be stationed here to deal with the remaining Huo family army."

Zhao Hongming said meaningfully: "There is no one under jurisdiction over that place, and there are at least [-] or [-] soldiers. I am worried that if it is not under jurisdiction, it will become out of control and harm the surrounding areas." At present, the Huo Clan has entered a countdown to destruction, and the country has not There are no other hostile factors.

Zhao Hongming can no longer deal with it like Lu Zonghui and his family. These are the national power of Wei and there is no need to waste them in vain.

By handing it over to Wu Qi, it just so happens that the wealth does not go to outsiders, and he can take as much benefit as he wants. Even if he absorbs excellent troops, it is still good.

After Wu Qi saw Zhao Hongming's thoughts, he understood it tacitly and just nodded in agreement.

After seeing that the arrangements here were almost complete, Zhao Hongming saw that the sky was already bright, so he took Huo Yu and many other prisoners and subordinates, and rushed towards Daliang City with the momentum of victory.

A few hours ago, Huo Mansion in Daliang City.

Suddenly, a man dressed in black robe came to the backyard of Huo Mansion and knocked on the back door hurriedly.

The back door opened, and the person who knocked immediately got in.

The lights in Huo Mansion were brightly lit instantly, and the servants began to get busy.

Huo Xianshui, who was still sleeping, was woken up by someone.

"Miss, miss, wake up quickly, something happened."

Huo Xianshui said sleepily: "What's the matter?"

"There is news from the palace that the second young master is dead. I am afraid that I will be in trouble next time. I have already told you that the housekeeper should take your young prince and leave Daliang as soon as possible to avoid the limelight."

"what……"

Huo Xianshui shuddered and woke up immediately.

Even if she reacted late, she would still know that the situation was critical.

Immediately, she no longer hesitated, packed up her belongings and valuables at home, and under the arrangement of the housekeeper, she hugged her infant nephew and got into the carriage.

After buying off a city gate guard, he left Daliang City and hid in a secret manor outside the city, waiting for news from the outside.

The sky is getting brighter and it's the sixth watch.

This time is exactly the time for Emperor Jian'an's daily morning dynasty.

Zhao Hongming quickly put an end to the Thai king's attempt to force him to the palace with thunderous force in the name of Qing Jun.

Now Wei Guochaotang has obviously returned to normal.

The morning service was also held as scheduled.

In the Qianqing Palace, the current emperor Zhao Meixu stood on the tall Danbi, wearing a dragon robe and a golden crown, overlooking the civil and military ministers outside the palace gate.

His eyes were sharp and showed no sign of twilight. His body was blessed with the aura of an emperor, and he was powerful without being angry.

The ministers of the Wei Kingdom stood neatly outside the palace with serious expressions, waiting for Emperor Jian'an's call.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu sat on the dragon throne and said to Feng Dabao: "Let's begin!"

The palm eunuch Feng Dabao nodded and shouted: "Go to court!"

His high-pitched voice came out.

Many ministers standing outside the palace entered the hall one after another and saluted Zhao Meixu.

Emperor Jian'an waved his hand habitually to signal the ministers to get down.

Zhao Meixu looked at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and asked in a deep voice: "Do you have anything important to do, dearest minister?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

"Prime Minister Xiao, come here."

Xiao Boling, the Right Prime Minister of Zhongshu, stood up with a solemn expression and said: "Your Majesty, today someone discovered that Huo Yu was carrying an army of [-] troops outside the capital, and his troops were pointing at the beams. He had evil intentions. If he is not calmed down in time, it may endanger the capital."

Emperor Jian'an's face also became serious. He looked at Zhongshu Right Prime Minister Xiao Boling and said, "I wonder what countermeasures the Prime Minister has?"

Xiao Boling, the right minister of Zhongshu, said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the central army should be mobilized immediately to pacify the situation. There should be no further hesitation. It is better to go quickly rather than slowly. At the same time, I sent an order to all the vassal princes and border troops to strengthen the defense of the border areas to prevent other countries. Take advantage of the situation and bring military disaster to Wei."

After Emperor Jian'an thought for a moment, he nodded: "Just as Prime Minister Xiao said."

In fact, he has already issued a decree and mobilized the Chinese army to make preparations in advance, but some procedures are still necessary.

"The Minister of the Ministry of War is Yu Shaobao!"

"I'm here!" Yu Hezheng, Minister of the Ministry of War and Shaobao, stood up and responded.

Emperor Jian'an ordered: "You immediately deploy troops, let Murong Li lead the Chinese army to attack Huo Yu immediately, kill the rebels, and ask the Minister of Industry to strengthen the defense of the capital. In addition, pass the order to many border guards to be on guard against unusual movements in various countries." "

"The minister obeys the order!"

Emperor Jian'an stood above His Majesty Dan, his eyes full of worry: "It seems that a war that will harm the strength of our country, Wei, is inevitable."

He knew that the [-] troops brought by Huo Yu were secretly assisted by two major martial arts forces, Zhujian Villa and Zhengyimen.

Even if Murong Li led the Chinese army, it would be difficult to win.

What comforted him a little was that he had a martial arts warrior on his side who was comparable to Master Bi. He was not too passive and had no chance of winning.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu asked: "My dear friends, do you think the Chinese army can defeat Huo Yu's [-]-strong army?"

Zhongshu Zuo Chenghong Daowen stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although Huo Yu's cultivation is not high, his ability to lead troops is not weak. Now that he has the support of martial arts forces, if the Chinese army wants to win, I think it will be Only [-]%."

"Is there only half a chance?" Emperor Jian'an's eyebrows were filled with some worry.

At this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the palace. A minister ran into the hall in panic and knelt in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, Chen Mou and Chen Shangshu sent back news that Zhuohe River was destroyed by Huo's army. The levee breaks.”

"What?" Emperor Jian'an's face changed drastically, he stood up suddenly and said, "What's the situation now?"

"Your Majesty, please do not be anxious. With the help of His Highness the Crown Prince, the embankment has now been repaired and only some villages have been affected. Chen Shangshu ordered me to report here and ask for support from the court."

"Where is Minister Chen?"

"He returned to the disaster-stricken area and led people to strengthen the embankment."

Emperor Jian'an's face softened slightly, and then he roared: "What a rebel of the Huo family, he dares to attack the mouth of the Zhuo River and convey my will. The members of the Huo family will be arrested immediately. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy."

"Yes!"

The expressions of the ministers in the court were solemn.

At this time, a layer of cold sweat broke out on their backs.

They never expected that this rebel incident would be so serious.

If the Zhuohe River is not controlled and floods occur, regardless of whether Huo Jun can exterminate it, I am afraid that this year's disaster will make everyone in the court drink a pot.

Not to mention, the Huo family's [-]-strong army is right in front of them.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu looked around and asked: "Do you have anything else to report, my beloved? If there is nothing major, just retreat from the court and report to me in private. Deal with the rebels as soon as possible."

"I have no major news to report yet."

"Then back..."

"Report! There is major military information!"

Someone outside the hall shouted again, making everyone in the hall look a little surprised.

It was another breach of the Zhuohe River, and another major military situation.Could it be that Huo Jun came in?
Emperor Jian'an had a clear view of the performance of all his ministers, and he calmly said: "What military situation?"

The guards rushed to the main hall and reported: "His Royal Highness, together with two thousand men, attacked the Huo army's camp and defeated one hundred thousand enemy troops!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court could hear it.

Zhao Meixu was also stunned, and repeated: "You said that the prince has defeated the Huo family's [-]-strong army?"

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has captured the leader of the thief alive and is on his way back to the court, so I ordered this villain to report first."

Whoa!
Like a drop of water falling into boiling oil, there was an instant uproar throughout the court. (End of chapter)
