Chapter 205
At the same time, Sima Xukong was walking unhurriedly down the mountain, with a relaxed expression on his face, as if what he was walking was not a steep mountain, but a beautiful garden, and his mood became better.

He Nuo was so nervous that his palms were sweating, he held on to the rein tightly, and looked around from time to time, as if some kind of flood beast could suddenly emerge from the mountain wall.

Swallowing with some difficulty, He Nuo said: "My lord, this move is a bit dangerous. If we make a wrong move, we will all be smashed into meatloaf. It's better to hit each other... "

Sima Xukong smiled casually, and said, "So, cherish every sight you see now, maybe this is the last one you will see."

He Nuo was already worried in his heart, but after hearing Sima Xukong's words, goosebumps appeared on his arms, and looked at Sima Xukong worriedly, He Nuo said: "My lord, you don't have to speak so scary, we Aren't they all fully prepared and very hopeful of winning?"

"That's right, this king thinks so, but people who have doubts, don't they still worry?" Sima Xukong raised his eyebrows and said, "Since it's useless to explain, just follow your worries. Well, it can be regarded as reassuring you."

What kind of peace of mind is this? It's almost scary...

He Nuo slandered a few words, looked at Sima Xukong's smiling side face, and suddenly felt that the prince was playing with him.However, He Nuo was not as nervous as before when he joked with the prince.

And just when He Nuo was about to use other things to divert his attention, there was a sudden rumbling noise from the mountain, which made everyone look up.And when I looked at it, I saw countless boulders rolling down from the mountain wall...

Xu Zizheng, you really lived up to expectations...

Sima Xukong squinted his eyes, and then shouted loudly: "Come here, pull the net..."

Hearing the order, the soldiers of Long Rui's army came from back to front and pulled up hundreds of giant nets one after another.This huge net is not an ordinary net, but adopts a unique refining method. It is tough and dense, and it is pulled tightly back and forth. Elasticity, the stone flicked slightly on it, and it lost its aggressiveness, and rolled down on both sides of the road.

Seeing that this method failed to destroy the enemy, the lieutenant beside Xu Zizheng couldn't help clapping his hands and said, "My lord, it seems that they came prepared."

"Hmph, no matter how prepared they are, they won't be able to escape today..." Xu Zizheng turned hard, and whispered, "Come here, shoot arrows..."

Sima Xukong saw arrows being set from above, and hurriedly shouted: "Raise the shield..."

After the voice fell, the soldiers raised their iron shields one after another, connecting the front and back, like an iron dragon, impeccable.Arrows shot down like raindrops, hitting Iron Shield Mountain like rain and hail.

Hiding under the iron shield, He Nuo said with a smile: "It seems that the narrow road has its advantages, it's a good shelter..."

Although Sima Xukong still maintained a smile, his eyes were always vigilant, like a dormant leopard, observing the surrounding situation.

With his eyes shining brightly, Sima Xukong said: "Order the whole army to move forward as soon as possible, and the road ahead will be wider. If not, if those villains continue to throw stones, even if it is drowned, we will be drowned."

Hearing this, He Nuo, who regretted his life, hurriedly followed the team, moving forward without landing a step, wishing he could be faster and rush to the front.

Seeing the rapidly advancing team below, Xu Zizheng sneered and said, "Hmph, want to run? It's not that easy..."

Seeing that Long Rui's army was advancing and retreating at a pace without any chaos, Xu Jiajun couldn't help but began to say suspiciously: "My lord, I see that they seem to have made preparations a long time ago. Could there be something strange about this trip?"

"Even if there is something wrong, I will let them die on their own cleverness..." Xu Zizheng snorted, "How can I give up such a good opportunity? Besides, we still have killer moves that are useless. Immediately, these smart people You guys, you won’t be able to laugh. They can dodge stones and arrows, but they can’t dodge explosives...I really want to see how these people are blown to pieces..."

"My lord, when shall we start?"

Looking ahead, Xu Zizheng pointed to a bend and said: "Start from there, the explosives can also cause the rocks on the cliff to fall, it's best to hit them, if not, block the road and let them run Can't run away..."

"Yes……"

Gathering gunpowder hands stood on the edge of the mountain wall, and everyone stared at the front. When they found the bend in Long Rui's army camp, they aimed at the crowd moved by ants and shot gunpowder one after another.

When the explosive exploded, it made a loud bang, blowing people upside down, and screams everywhere.

Seeing that bloody look, Xu Zizheng showed a cruel smile, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his face was stern.

"Let it go hard, and blow up all these people to death... Today, I will turn this place into a purgatory on earth..."

At this moment, Xu Zizheng has a flirtatious face, which makes people tremble with fear.Even the officers and soldiers who knew him well on weekdays couldn't help but find his face terrifying.

But when the explosives were exhausted and the gunpowder smoke cleared, everyone looked at the bottom of the mountain together, but found that there was no one there, only some gravel and broken military flags, and nothing else.

"Strange, what about people?"

"That's right, even if you were killed by the bomb, there should be a body."

"Or, our gunpowder is too strong, and those Long Rui people have been blown into powder?"

"That's an army of 10,000+, there must be something, it can't be all turned into powder..."

Just when Xu Jiajun was puzzled, a voice from behind them suddenly came from Ling Ran, "That's because we have already discovered your plot..."

Turning around abruptly, Xu Zizheng looked at Gu Shiyong behind him, frowned and asked, "Where did you come from?..."

"Naturally, I have been waiting here for you for a long time. Hmph, Xu Zizheng, today I will not let you escape again, and harm the common people..."

With a sneer, Xu Zizheng said: "Do you think that you are the only ones who have made preparations in advance? Since I knew you would pass by here, I have already thought that you are a trick. Don't you think that it is just you These few people will be able to subdue us, right?"

"Of course not, you don't need so many people to subdue you." Gu Shiyong waved back and shouted, "Come here, bring the things..."

Opening the box that the soldier handed over to him, Gu Shiyong said with a smile: "Since you gave us such a big gift to Long Rui today, then we have to give it back, otherwise wouldn't it be rude? I don't know such a thing, Do Master Xu like it?"

Looking at the thing lying quietly in the palm of Gu Shiyong, Xu Zizheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is that?"

"It's not something precious, it's just a fire and thunder stone that is a hundred times more powerful than your explosives. We are on the top of a mountain, and a strong vibration will shatter the rocks, and then we will all fall into the abyss." , no longer life and death..."

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Xu Zizheng said disdainfully: "I thought you guys could do something good, but it turned out to be a dead end, hmph... really capable."

"I'm dead, it doesn't matter, as long as the prince is still alive, we have achieved our goal. Without you, Xu Zizheng, why would Xu Shikang rebel? It's only a matter of time to clean up the remnants of the Xu family."

After hearing Gu Shiyong's words, Xu Zizheng raised his head and laughed three times, and said freely: "You are really stupid, didn't you hear the bombing just now? Do you think that your prince will be able to do it after going through all this?" Did you survive? I'm afraid it has already turned into powder, and I don't know where it went..."

Smiling triumphantly, Gu Shiyong said: "Master Xu will know if he is alive or not by looking down."

Looking at Gu Shiyong's inscrutable smile, Xu Zizheng suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and then hurriedly looked down.And just that one glance made his eyes widen, and he asked in disbelief: "What's going on, why aren't they dead...?"

At the bottom of the mountain at this moment, Sima Xukong was leading a group of people, looking up at them.After discovering Xu Zizheng, Sima Xukong waved at him recklessly.Although it was far away, Xu Zizheng could guess that this man was looking at him proudly, showing off.

Shaking his head in disbelief, Xu Zizheng murmured: "Why did this happen, they... how did they suddenly disappear and then appear again?"

"Because we had expected that you would use some extraordinary means, we dug a deep enough tunnel here. Moreover, many of the 'soldiers and horses' you saw were forged. Who made you stay so far away?" , can’t you see clearly? It’s only natural to misunderstand…”

Stumbling on his feet, Xu Zizheng said bitterly, "Sima Xukong, you're really cunning... You really worked hard to catch me..."

"That's natural, otherwise, wouldn't the previous efforts be in vain?" Gu Shiyong held the Huo Leishi in his hand and said casually, "For you, we have racked our brains, so you can be content .”

"Hmph, it sounds like you can win a big victory," Xu Zizheng said coldly, "I have many ways to make you fall with your dynamite. I don't know when you explode in the air of Sima Xu How would he react in front of him?"

"We can try to see who is faster." Gu Shiyong fiddled with the things in his hands, and said slowly, "Actually, we also have a back-up move, just to ensure that we can kill you today..."

"The tone is not small, so let's try it out, who will win the deer today..." After the words fell, Xu Zizheng attacked Gu Shiyong, trying to snatch the Fire Thunder Stone from his hand.

And Gu Shiyong is not weak in martial arts, when he discovered the opponent's motive, he immediately jumped away, tapped his toes, and retreated a few feet away.

"Xu Zizheng, even if you snatch one, each of us still has the Fire Thunder Stone, can you snatch it away..."

Xu Zizheng's expression was grim, and he said in a cold voice, "Even if you die, you will all be buried with me..."

Seeing that the fighting became more and more intense, the warriors following Gu Shiyong also rushed forward, entangled and sparred with Xu Zizheng's subordinates.

Seeing more and more enemies, Xu Zizheng gritted his teeth. He told himself that he would not lose, let alone Sima Xukong... He wanted everyone to die, all of them to die...

Seeing their own people being forced to the top of the mountain, the members of the Xu family couldn't help but feel uneasy, and looking at the red-eyed Xu Zizheng, that kind of crazy state also made people fearful, so some subordinates reminded them Said: "My lord, this is too dangerous... This subordinate will escort you to evacuate first..."

"We didn't lose, why did we retreat...? I want to kill all these people..."

"Those who want to kill me, your tone is really not small..."

The familiar and playful voice made Xu Zizheng focus slightly, looked at Sima Xukong who was outside the fighting circle, and couldn't help frowning and shouted: "Sima Xukong...? Aren't you from the bottom of the mountain..."

"Who said I was coming down from the bottom of the mountain? I have been following you..." Sima Xukong looked at Xu Zizheng leisurely, and said leisurely, "Thank you for giving me such a big gift today, To be able to capture you so easily, I must be able to receive a meritorious service from the Empress Dowager..."

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Zizheng said bitterly, "It's another Disguise Technique..."

"You are quite smart this time. Since you have figured it out, you should surrender early, go to the capital with us, and accept the punishment you deserve."

With a sneer, Xu Zizheng said, "Do you think this is the way to beat me? You will die together, and I can choose this way..."

Hearing that Xu Zizheng had such a plan, the officer couldn't help stopping him loudly: "My lord, don't..."

Sima Xukong was not as nervous as those people, he just smiled lightly, and said calmly: "You have used up all the explosives in your hand, what else can you do to blackmail me? Xu Zizheng, you lose if you lose!" Regarding your arrogance, you think that with your strength, even if you know that there will be a conspiracy, you still have the ability to defeat us, and even wipe out my Long Rui army, don't you? But now, you still face the facts Well, you lost, you lost completely... Now I have the initiative, you'd better be obedient, otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even be able to gain the minimum dignity..."

"Hmph, are you trying to scare me? I've come this far, what else can I be afraid of? Sima Xukong, you only use dirty and despicable methods, and you and I have never been serious. After a competition, maybe this is the last chance, don't you want to use your real skills to defeat me?"

"My lord, don't believe in his aggressive tactics. You are the one who is really scheming, don't you think you can make the lord give up a good opportunity and fight with you by ridiculing with your words? You are really good at planning. But Xu Zizheng, it's useless to struggle to the death, it's better to disarm and surrender early, so that the losses of your Xu family army can be minimized."

The eldest grandson Jingrong slowly appeared in everyone's sight. Wearing a cloak, she was heroic, with clear and far-sighted features, like a frosty plum blossom, exuding coldness and aloofness.

Turning around to look at his eldest grandson Jingrong, Sima Xukong put his arms around her shoulders in pain, and said with concern: "Jingrong, why are you here? It's windy up here, don't blow it."

"I'm fine. This bit of wind can't hurt me. It's just that at such a critical moment, I also want to see it, otherwise it will always be a loss." Looking at the gloomy Xu Zizheng with his head tilted, Changsun Jingrong said, "This It's a contest between the two armies, not a personal grievance at all, how can you put your own wishes above the interests of the country?"

"Oh, that's really nice to say," Xu Zizheng's eyes were complicated. He looked at his eldest grandson Jingrong with admiration, but more hatred, and said, "Could it be that we can have peace if we surrender our arms and surrender?" Is it the end? I don’t think so, but it’s a desperate fight, and it’s possible to win by chance.”

Changsun Jingrong knew that now she needed to stabilize Xu Zizheng and catch him when he was unprepared, so when she was talking, she was always challenging Xu Zizheng's bottom line, but she didn't break the bottom line and let him struggle back and forth.

"It's this time, are you still daydreaming? Don't you think that you are the best candidate to be the emperor? My lord and I have already investigated. Your identity is not a prince at all, but just You are just a child from an ordinary family, and you are dreaming of becoming emperor just by forging the imperial decree, you are really dreaming..."

"You woman, don't spout blood. Our lord is the real prince, so don't talk nonsense again."

"That's right, your lord's identity has been confirmed long ago, can you overthrow it with just you, a woman? You are the one who became the laughing stock..."

Looking at the passionate subordinates behind Xu Zizheng, Changsun Jingrong smiled calmly and said, "Are you talking nonsense? You can ask Xu Shikang, he knows much better than us. But you, Xu Zizheng, I really don't know." What kind of position do you have in Xu Shikang's heart that he will use you like this."

"My lord, don't listen to this crazy woman, she must want to disturb the morale of the army, so she made such evil words..."

Looking deeply at the speaking general, Changsun Jingrong said with a smile: "Do you still need me to disturb your military spirit? It's already a mess now. Xu Zizheng, your people are already surrounded by us, why bother?" Struggling? Even if you fight to the death, what good will it do you? Would you let your subordinates be buried with you?"

A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Xu Zizheng said: "I used to know that you are eloquent, but today I discovered that you are still a good player who knows how to use people's hearts. What good did Xu Zizheng do to you to make you so determined?" Follow him through life and death?"

Looking at Sima Xukong and smiling, Changsun Jingrong said: "Because we trust each other and also believe in the choices made by each other. But you are different, Xu Zizheng, you use any means to achieve your goals. How about asking such a person?" , who will be sincere to you? Of course, I'm just talking about the facts, I hope you can be more sensible and stop going crazy, this will not be good for you or anyone else. "
