Army of the Undead in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 201
It was already daylight.

Liu Bian sat in the commander's mansion with a sullen face, without saying a word.Standing in front of him were Pan Feng and Zhou Tai who had rushed over after hearing the wind, and behind him stood Hua Xiong and Han Dang.If these two guys hadn't become undead creatures and were not afraid of swords, he might not be alive now.

"Your Highness, the last general ordered people to take strict precautions around the commander's mansion last night. I really don't know where the assassin came from!" Seeing Liu Bian's unhappy face, Pan Feng thought he was angry with herself, and quickly explained .

Because of the ghouls, the security work in the commander's mansion is in charge of the 2000 people under Zhou Tai's command. They used to march with ghouls, and basically no longer fear this kind of undead creatures. .And after the ghouls and the bamboo puppet fight in the morning, these guards have surrounded them on all sides, their swords are out of their sheaths, and their bows and arrows are stringed. If it is a person, it will be difficult to fly.Unfortunately, who would have expected the bamboo puppet to fly away?

Zhou Tai moved his lips and was about to speak. Liu Bian sighed, then waved his hand: "It's none of your business. Assassins are not ordinary people. They are skilled in swordsmanship. It's reasonable for you to be unprepared."

It's just that he couldn't figure it out, how could the bamboo puppet be able to use swordsmanship to that level, could it be that the bamboo puppet has become a spirit for a thousand years or is it possessed by a ghost?

But Liu Bian is already an undead monarch, no matter whether he is a ghost or a ghost, as long as there is a spiritual consciousness, Liu Bian can definitely feel it, even the most precious treasure of the day, the Ice Throne, so what about this bamboo puppet Can escape his detection?

Moreover, if the bamboo puppet is really a kind of ghost, and I can say that I have no grievances with it, why did it assassinate him?

Since the bamboo puppet was lurking in his room to assassinate him, it was obviously aimed at him. Since it missed the first hit, it must come again.

Originally, I thought that I could sit back and relax with such a group of undead guardians and the few undead magics I have mastered now, but I didn't want to kill such an existence, which instantly made Liu Bian feel full of crisis, and the bamboo puppet's There is no breath of life on his body, even he himself can't feel its existence, let alone undead creatures.

If the corpse grave monster is there, I can open up a space in the corpse grave monster's body to live in, guarded by the corpse grave monster's body like melting mud, no matter how powerful the bamboo puppet's swordsmanship is, after all, its strength is limited, and it will never hurt. He can't reach him, but now the Corpse Tomb Demon should be in Xingyang, hundreds of miles away, and he can't quench his thirst far away.

Assassination?

A flash of inspiration flashed in Liu Bian's mind, thinking of Wang Yue back then, wasn't he just waiting in that tea shed to assassinate Chen Gong?And the person who appointed Wang Yue was Dong Zhuo.Now, the person who wants to put him to death is probably Dong Zhuo.So, could it be that this bamboo puppet was actually sent by Dong Zhuo?When did Dong Zhuo's subordinates have such a powerful existence?

All kinds of thoughts were churning in Liu Bian's mind, and he couldn't figure out why for a while.If either Yu Ji or Cai Wenji is by his side, with their experience and knowledge, they may be able to see something from the strange existence of the bamboo puppet, and they may be able to injure others with the use of sky thunder and ghost art as attack methods. this thing.

Just when Liu Bian was thinking about how to prepare for another assassination, a small school outside the door suddenly shouted: "Report! There is an urgent military situation from Luoyang City!"

Luoyang City?Liu Bian was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that Luoyang City had already fallen into his hands, and Yu Ji was in charge at this time.My heart tightened immediately: Could it be that Dong Zhuo counterattacked Luoyang so soon?

Pan Feng took the emergency military information casually, and planned to take it apart to read, but when he looked up, he saw Liu Bian sitting on it, and then remembered that there was also his boss sitting on it, so he quickly raised the bamboo slips of military information with both hands, and bowed Said: "His Royal Highness, please enlighten me."

Liu Bian opened it and saw that it read: "Hongnong was besieged by the [-] army of Guan Hai, the remnant of the Yellow Turban. The old minister has sent reinforcements from Luoyang. Please come back quickly, young master!" How did he know that he happened to be at Sishuiguan right now, but he was not allowed to think about it.

Most of Hongnong City's troops have been taken away by Liu Bian, and there are only a few thousand infantry guarding the city. Not only that, even the troops of Icecrown City, which are mutually horns, have been taken away by Hua Xiong Cai Wenji, and now they are suddenly hit by fifty thousand soldiers. The siege of the army made Liu Bian panic.

Although Hongnong City is not a big city, it is also the base for him to settle down, and Tang Ji is also in it. If there is no accident, Diao Chan should have returned to Hongnong with Yuxi and two thousand cavalry. It is very important, how can he not be in a hurry?
Liu Bian thought about it, and then told Pan Feng and Zhou Taiyi about the current situation. After all, the three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang, and maybe they have some way to do it.

"Since the Yellow Turban is besieging the city, Your Highness should send troops to support it. At the end, the general is willing to bring 2000 people from the headquarters to support it!" Zhou Taixin clasped his fists from Liu Bian, showing some eagerness to make meritorious service.

Pan Feng rolled his eyes at Zhou Tai: "Hongnong is nearly a thousand miles away from Sishuiguan, when will your 2000 troops arrive?" Zhou Tai was speechless with a single sentence.

He glanced at Hua Xiong and Han Dang behind Liu Bian, and said, "I wonder if there are any good defenders in Hongnong City? As long as they last for about three days, His Highness can take these two generals to support them personally. The strange types of troops under his command and the bravery of the two generals must play a big role."

Pan Feng had seen Hua Xiong's abilities before, and knew that this guy was very powerful. In ancient times, a general who was good at duels had a great influence on the outcome, and the ghoul was even more brave. That's why he let Liu Bian Take Hua Xiong and Han Qian there.

Hearing what Pan Feng said, Liu Bian slapped his head suddenly, feeling that he was really confused. Isn't there still two thousand ghouls, five hundred skeleton knights and a corpse grave demon in Xingyang city? There are still nine thousand soul fires, as long as he rides the red-haired ox to the battlefield in person, even if Guan Hai has fifty thousand yellow scarves, so what?

It was Xu Rong who guarded Hongnong City. I heard that this guy was good at defending. With the original strength of Hongnong City and the two thousand brought by Diao Chan, it should be no problem to hold on for a while. Hongnong is too far away, it seems that there is no hope.

The red-haired ox can travel 2000 miles a day on a normal schedule. If he goes all out, [-] miles should not be a problem. That is to say, he only needs a little more than a day to reach Hongnong, and the death knight and zombie lord can take him to Hongnong. The ghouls then backed up.And Zhou Tai's [-] people have gone through several battles, and they are basically an elite existence. As long as they gather all the horses, letting them go with Hua Xiong is also a force.

Having made up his mind, Liu Bian briefly stated his plan, and said to Pan Feng, "Hurry up and collect war horses in Guanli, gather up two thousand horses and give them to Zhou Tai."

Pan Feng nodded, and went to do it immediately.

"Your Highness, don't do it!" Zhou Tai said with a bitter face, "Your Highness is on the road alone this time, isn't it giving the assassin a chance to do it? If he does it secretly, there is no one guarding His Highness, how can he guard against it?" he?"

When Zhou Tai said this, Liu Bian felt a chill down his spine, why didn't he think of this?If he went alone, he would obviously be seeking his own death if he wanted to deal with the bamboo puppet when the magic was ineffective.But if he didn't go, Hongnong City would surely fall into Guan Hai's hands, and now only he arrived in person to break Guan Hai's [-] army.

How can this be good?

At this moment, someone outside the door whispered: "Your Highness, I will go with you."

Immediately, a person floated in with lotus steps lightly, and it turned out to be Shi Ayan.She glanced at Liu Bian, and said: "I have figured out the basics of the bamboo puppet's swordsmanship, and found one of its biggest weaknesses. If I protect it, it will definitely keep His Highness safe."

"How is your injury?" Liu Bian didn't want Shi Ayan to wake up again after being unconscious, so he asked hastily.

"It's okay, it's just a sword injury, so it's not a serious problem. Moreover," Shi Ayan's eyes showed a fiery look: "The bamboo puppet uses an ancient sword technique, which seems to be defeated by a few moves in the legend. Ah Yan would be unwilling to compete with the Yue Nu Sword, which defeated the Eight Swordsmen of the Wu Kingdom in a row!"

Seeing what Shi Ayan said, Liu Bian had no choice but to nod his head, for the current plan, it can only be like this.

After a little preparation, the two went out.Seeing that Sun Jian's ancient ingot knife was placed on the weapon rack at the gate of the commander's mansion, it turned out that when Sun Jian was captured, Pan Feng confiscated all the armored weapons and horses. In the commander's mansion, Liu Bian immediately copied it in his hand.

Outside the door, Pan Fengzheng was walking back and forth anxiously. When he saw Liu Bian approaching, he smiled wryly and said, "Your Highness, the last general sent someone to ask the biggest horse dealer here. All of them were infected with the disease, and most of them died, and the rest were dying, our army only has about [-] war horses, it seems that the [-] horses are not enough."

But at this moment, Hua Xiong, who was following Liu Bian, had a red light in his eyes, and a thought came into Liu Bian's mind: "Master, Hua Xiong is a death knight, as long as the master bestows the soul fire, I will It can turn a dead horse into a death horse!"

The two share the same mind, and Hua Xiong's memory is instantly browsed by Liu Bian.It turned out that the death horse was something that the death knight had to find and tame after being resurrected. The dead or living horse was transformed into a mount by the death knight's unique method, which was different from the undead horse made by Liu Bian with soul fire.

One soul fire is enough to summon two death horses, that is to say, if one thousand soul fires are given to Hua Xiong, Liu Bian only has eight thousand left.But thinking it would not have much effect, Liu Bian raised his hand to take off Hua Xiong's helmet, and with the flip of his palm, the soul fire poured into Hua Xiong's chest and stored it in it.

After Qianduo's soul fire was exhausted, and he told Pan Feng to take Hua Xiong to fetch the horse corpse, Liu Bian didn't want to delay any more, turned over and rode on the red-haired ox, and Shi Ayan also landed on Liu Bian with her pipa on his back. Behind him, the red-haired ox let out a long cry, and galloped away.
