Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 405: The two sides are powerful, Hexi surrenders

Hou Yucheng recognized the woman who got off the carriage at a glance.

Lian Ningxue, the elder of Haoran Holy Sect's painting veins.

Ten years ago, on the eve of the Tongling Rebellion, all forces got involved. In order to find a way out for the Hou family, the eldest brother Hou Yuxiao once tried to get around the three holy places of Haoran Holy Sect, Ziqing Holy Sect and Dayu Holy Dynasty. Send him to find Lian Ningxue alone.

I still remember that the first time I met Lian Ningxue was at the Sacred Heart Residence in Tongling County. At that time, the Hou family was just a small and well-off family who had just come out of Zhaoyang County. Hou Yucheng treated Lian Ningxue with respect and humility. Even if I really have some ideas, I don't dare to have any extravagant hopes. After all, the other party has served as the elder of the Holy Land at a young age. At that time, he was only in the Gang Qi realm, but Lian Ningxue was already a master of the Great Perfection in the Yuan Dan realm. .

Seeing each other after ten years, it was not like talking about liking each other, but Hou Yucheng still felt a little flutter in his heart for no reason. He could tell at a glance that Lian Ningxue, like himself, was also at the Broken Realm. .

"Young lady, you are welcome and safe!"

Hou Yucheng did not hide the throbbing in his heart. Although he tried to be as calm as possible, the slight emotional fluctuation in his tone could still be easily heard. After all, Lian Ningxue was in front of him, but this time the Hedong Alliance sent him to talk to him. The object of marriage.

Lian Ningxue nodded slightly, a hint of complexity flashed in the depths of her pupils.

"Second brother, the alliance army has arrived!"

Suddenly hearing the reminder from Hou Yuling behind him, Hou Yucheng quickly gathered his mind and looked behind Jing Tianyu and the others. At this sight, his body was shocked.

Tap tap tap tap…………

As far as the eye can see, five or six miles away, Wu Yangyang's army is wading through the water. Within the range visible to the naked eye, there are at least hundreds of thousands of troops. It is impossible to see clearly from behind. These soldiers have obviously not been released. Any cultivation level, just slowly, will cause the sky to be covered with dark clouds and the waters to surge.

They wore all kinds of armor and rode tall horses. Although their marching speed was not very fast, thousands of horses' hooves trampled on the water, causing splashes of water to fly, which could not help but stir up the heartstrings of him and everyone in the Hou family. .

"This is the 700 million-strong army of the Hedong Alliance!"

"Cultivation, their cultivation is all at the tenth level."

"These are all the elite of the Holy Land, there are quite a few in the Gang Qi, Grand Master, and Yuan Dan realms."

"Hiss...the five commanders at the beginning are all powerful in the Broken Realm!"

"Five? The Four Holy Lands, plus King Wuwei's people, the five-party coalition, right?"

………………

An army of 700 million cannot be seen with the naked eye alone.

But among the Hou family, the ones with the lowest cultivation level are all in the Yuan Dan realm. There is nothing wrong with sensing the size of the approaching army to the east. Because of this, the momentum of this Wuyang Yang army of 700 million people is clear. After the sensation, they were left with only shock and emotion in their hearts.

Counting the Five Elements Sky, the Hou family has been developing for at least a hundred years, but the Red Flame Army currently only has 200 million troops, while the Hedong Alliance easily brought out an army of 700 million, and looking at the posture of these 700 million troops The momentum is only greater than that of the Hou family's Red Flame Army, but not inferior in any way.

"The Hedong Alliance wants to use Zhaoyang City for a period of time. Since the Hou family has anti-Jin intentions, he will not refuse. Our army is passing through Wanyang County. I also ask the Second Master Hou to order the city gate to be opened."

Jing Tianyu's tone was full of indisputability, asking him to open the city gate was no different from commanding his subordinates to open their own city gate. Hou Yucheng's heart trembled slightly, a gleam of coldness flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he immediately cupped his hands and said with a smile: "This That’s how it should be.”

After finishing speaking, he immediately shouted to the city: "Open the city gate quickly, welcome the Hedong Alliance army and enter the city..."

"Yes!"

The city gate below opened immediately, and the endless army of the Hedong Alliance poured into the city like a long dragon. They did not stay in the city, but came in directly from the east gate, and then continued to march towards the west gate. Heading towards Zhaoyang Fucheng, eighty miles west of Wanyang County.

Hou Yucheng took a deep breath and turned to look at Jing Tianyu and Lian Ningxue:
"Since the alliance army is stationed in Zhaoyang Fucheng, how about asking the Marquis and Miss Lian to go to Daocheng with Yucheng to discuss the specific matters of this marriage?"

Lian Ningxue did not speak, but looked at Jing Tianyu.

Obviously, although she was the one who got married, it was Jing Tianyu who made the decision.

"Okay, then please ask Mr. Hou to lead the way!"

Although Hexi's position is unclear, there is no problem with the marriage.

Besides, 700 million alliance troops were to be stationed in Zhaoyang Fucheng, so he could stop by to check out the situation. Hexi Daocheng was the original Tongling County, not far from Wanyang County, only less than [-] miles away, and Zhaoyang Fucheng is sandwiched between Daocheng and Wanyang County. It is a newly built Fucheng. A group of people will pass by Daocheng when going to Daocheng.

The Hou family's 450 million troops are all in Xingnan Fucheng. There must be no problems in Daocheng. This is most likely the Hou family's deliberate intention in order to make the marriage smooth.

Jing Tianyu had no reason to refuse this invitation.

Seeing his quick words, Hou Yucheng nodded, took Hou Yuling and a group of Hou family masters to lead the way for Jing Tianyu and his party, and flew towards Hexi Daocheng.

November 1332, [-] in the New Yu Calendar

North of Xiapi County, Zhaoxia Ferry
After more than 20 consecutive days of severe drought, the ferry, which used to be full of warblers and grasses, has long been barren. Within tens of miles visible to the naked eye from outside the ferry, not a drop of river water can be seen, and the water bottom tens of meters deep has long been dry. It has already been revealed.

The world was completely silent. Not to mention the animals, there was no wind, and even the air seemed to be stopped flowing. Who would have thought that this place used to be a ferry that could dock Tianshu-class warships.

"We have already surveyed and found that the Gujiang River has dried up for 280 miles. Even the deepest hundreds of meters have been evaporated dry. The water level in the entire middle reaches of the Gujiang River has plummeted by more than 20 meters. Da Jin's method is simply unpredictable. ah!"

"It's not surprising. Demons are the source of natural disasters. It's easy to control the celestial phenomena. In the past, they didn't dare to cause these disasters. They were just afraid of those who killed demons in the major holy places. Now that the holy places are behind them, they are unscrupulous."

"This kind of method is actually not a big threat to warriors. Even the lowest-level open-body warriors, as long as they have some means, they can escape or hide. It is mainly ordinary people. Natural disasters mainly destroy them. living environment.”

………………

Hou Yuxiao stood at the edge of the ferry with about a hundred Hou family masters. He did not participate in the discussion of the people behind him. He just stared at the dry river surface, waiting for the upcoming Jin army.

Suddenly, a person flew from the south, walked directly through the crowd, walked up to Hou Yuxiao, bowed and said:

"Reporting to the head of the family, the 700 million-strong army of the Hedong Alliance stationed in Zhaoyang Fucheng yesterday. The second master has arrived at Hexi Daocheng with Jing Tianyu's family and horses."

When Hou Yujie, Hou Yuduan, and everyone in the Hou family heard the news, their bodies suddenly shook, and they all turned their attention to Hou Yuxiao.

"As expected, the army of the Hedong Alliance refused to join us in Jianye Mansion and stationed in Zhaoyang City. Is this a plan to continue to observe our movements?" Hou Yujie asked first.

Before Hou Yuxiao could speak, Lao Wu shook his head first, and said softly: "After all, we didn't go to Yangzhou to meet the League, and the League won't trust us easily. As long as I, Hexi, don't fight with Dajin, our position will always be uncertain. Under such circumstances, if they join forces rashly, if they lay an ambush, the gains will outweigh the losses, the Hedong Alliance is not stupid!"

Having said this, he paused, glanced at Hou Yuxiao, and continued:

"Zhaoyang Fucheng is not far from Daocheng, and it is only more than 400 miles away from Xingnan Fucheng. It is neither far nor close. It is indeed best to keep this distance for observation. If we really get into trouble with Dajin, they can reinforce us at any time. If it's the other way around, they can deploy defenses at any time so as not to fall into passivity too quickly. The Hedong Alliance is really cautious..."

After hearing Hou Yuduan's explanation, everyone understood the intention of the alliance army.

"What they have to deal with is the Jin Dynasty. It's impossible not to be cautious. I left the 450 million troops in Hexi in Jianye Prefecture. As long as they have the slightest suspicion, they will not rashly join forces with us, or even come close to Jianye Prefecture. , they don’t even dare!”

A faint light flashed in Hou Yuxiao's eyes, and his tone was very certain.

Of course I don't dare. The Jin Dynasty went south and claimed to have an army of tens of millions. Even if it is not accurate, it is estimated that it is not too different. Although the 700 million elites of the Holy Land of the Hedong Alliance are strong, they are already at a disadvantage in terms of military strength. In such a situation Next, they must want to win over the 500 million troops in Hexi.

But the problem is Hexi's position, and they don't dare to confirm it. The 450 million-strong army happened to stay in Jianye Mansion in the middle of Hexi Road, which makes it even more ambiguous. They don't dare to move Hexi to Dajin. Push, and they are afraid that Hexi has already united with Dajin, so they will choose an extremely cautious attitude towards Jianye Mansion, not daring to make enemies or fight, for fear of pushing Hexi to Dajin.

But joining the army is afraid that it is Hexi's plan. It is estimated that they will dare to join the army only after Hexi has formally fought against Dajin and accepted the nomination certificate.

There was no way, they couldn't help but be careless.

After all, once defeated, the war will immediately spread to the five states east of Hedong.

Although Hou Yujie understood it, looking at the dry river surface, he was still a little confused. He couldn't hold it back and asked: "Brother, I don't understand. You asked Lao Wu to find Tongtian Hebo and say that we should fight against the Jin Dynasty. Now look The reaction of the alliance army was of no use at all.

Now, we are here to welcome the army of the Jin Dynasty going south. Once the Hedong Alliance knows about it, won't it be even more unclear?
Is it possible that you want to confuse Da Jin?
But this is not enough to confuse Da Jin!
If you leave all 450 million troops in Xingnan Prefecture, the Jin Dynasty is not stupid. Their ideas are probably similar to those of the Hedong Alliance. As long as we don't take action and take the initiative to express our position, they will not join forces with us..."

Hou Yujie was so confused at the moment that he couldn't finish talking.

But the most important thing is what the eldest brother Hou Yuxiao is thinking.

Hou Yuxiao has already said that Hexi is rebelling against the Jin Dynasty. The problem is that all the actions of the eldest brother are making the Hedong Alliance not believe in them, and making the Jin Dynasty not believe in them either.

This is no different from Hexi's previous wavering position.

Are you still rebelling against Jin?

What Hou Yujie didn't notice was that when he just said that Da Jin's idea was similar to that of the Hedong Alliance, Hou Yuduan's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had noticed something, his body trembled, and he suddenly looked up at Hou Yuxiao.

"Brother, do you want the Hedong Alliance and the Jin Dynasty not to dare to approach Xingnan Mansion?"

Hou Yuduan did not say this directly, but asked himself in his heart.

Soon, he confirmed his guess, and at the same time a bold guess emerged in his mind. He suddenly looked up at Hou Yuxiao, and his eyes met in mid-air.

That's it!

Hou Yuduan confirmed his suspicion, and a bright light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"People are here!"

Suddenly, Hou Yuxiao reminded him, and everyone followed him and looked towards the river.

At this sight, everyone's eyes froze and their bodies shook violently.

On the dry river surface, a black tide slowly approached from a distance. Because it was more than ten miles away, they were too far away to see what it was.

But Hou Yuxiao's words "The people have arrived" just now reminded them, so they actually knew what it was.

That's the army of the Jin Dynasty going south!
What was slowly flowing over the river was not the tide, but the majestic Jin army like the tide. They held sharp swords, wore dark armor, and rode divine horses under their crotches. They did not gallop, but just kept their pace. The march was at a normal speed, but there were so many people that it still created a visual sense like a tide.

None of the soldiers in the army showed their energy and blood, and they just marched over indifferently. The sky was darkened by [-] to [-]% out of thin air. There was still some mud on the river that had just dried up. The army was driving on it, but it was clear that nothing could be done. There was a majestic marching sound, but this silent situation gave people a sense of oppression that became even stronger.

The eyes of Hou Yuxiao and the hundreds of people were all attracted by the army. Looking at the endless military formation behind them, even though they knew that they were not here to fight this army today, they still felt inexplicably a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

This huge and endless number of Jin soldiers were like filling up the ancient river water that had been steaming for three hundred miles. Soon, the entire river surface was filled with them, and what made people even more heartbroken was that From the rear, there is a steady stream of troops filling up.

“From what I can see with my eyes alone, I’m afraid it’s worth thirty to four million!”

"There are tens of millions of people. Dajin shouldn't be here. Tens of millions of people really came!"

"I finally understand why the Hedong Alliance is so cautious."

"If you are not careful, you are seeking death."

"No wonder the Jin Dynasty has the strength to sweep across Liuhe. This is not all the strength of the Jin Dynasty. They also have a large number of troops attacking Jizhou. What is in front of them can only be counted as one-third at most, or even less... ..."

call………………

Hou Yuxiao took a deep breath, adjusted the emotional fluctuations in his heart, looked at the three figures flying slowly on the river, and bowed directly with everyone behind him:
"Hexi Marquis Yuxiao, together with all the Hou family members, have been waiting here for a long time to pay homage to King Youye, King Yunting and King Xikang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a hundred people behind him also spoke in unison:
"Meet the three great lords Youye Emperor, Yunting King, and Xikang King!"
