Nine secrets to cover the sky

Chapter 121 The Redeemer
The next day, it was the time agreed before that the Xirong Allied Forces came to redeem their young king.

In the early morning of this day, the prime minister, Wu Nu, the princes of the five kingdoms and others stood on the tower, and the 40 troops in the city were ready to go in case of accidents.

Tens of miles away, the Xirong Allied Forces stationed in the garrison could be vaguely seen. Three people and three riders came slowly towards the imperial city. It was gloomy, and the one in the middle was an unsmiling, extremely muscular middle-aged man.

At this moment, on the way to the imperial city slowly, the middle-aged man said: "Are you sure the other side's city guard is the double-fate martial artist named Fang Jie?"

The two nodded and said, "Yes."

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "Then I'm not surprised, the four of you can lose the king."

Hearing this, the two masters of heaven and man did not get angry, but lowered their heads with shame on their faces.

This is because the middle-aged man is not only the commander-in-chief of the Xirong Allied Forces on the entire western front, but also a warrior and master of the second realm of the three realms of heaven and man!

Afterwards, the three of them did not communicate with each other any more, and rode all the way through the distance between the Xirong coalition army and the imperial city of Jin, and arrived at the foot of the imperial city.

At this time, the eyes of the middle-aged man fell on the tower, and his eyes swept across the faces, staying on the prime minister and Wu Nu for a while, and finally looked in front of them.

The three Tiangang-level ballistas that used to be the siege weapons of the Xirong coalition forces are now placed on the walls of the imperial city, facing them.

As the commander-in-chief of the Xirong Allied Forces, the middle-aged man is more aware of the value of these three Tiangang-level ballistas. In fact, in the army of 300 million under his control, there are only ten Tiangang-level ballistas equipped. Three of them fell into the hands of Jin people, and the middle-aged man felt extremely distressed after suffering such a huge loss.

But then looking down, the middle-aged man saw two fourth-level spirit beasts, Firefox, chained to both sides of the city gate, and his mood immediately became gloomy again.

Because these two firefoxes were raised by his father, although they are not the only two, but after all, they are from the hands of the people he respects the most. In the past, he was very proud to use them to conquer cities and territories, but now they are taken by Jin people. , tied to both sides of the city gate like watchdogs, this behavior made him more angry than pointing his Tiangang-level ballista at him.

So at this moment, the middle-aged man's expression became gloomy, and he suddenly raised his head and shouted towards the tower: "Tu Zang, Commander of the Xirong Allied Forces, please meet Fang Jie, General of the Imperial City of Jin."

This shout was full of anger because of the anger, and the voice spread directly to every corner of the imperial city, which is enough to show its strength, but it is a pity that the people on the tower, except the prince of the Five Kingdoms who showed a little surprise, the rest No one showed the slightest change in expression.

The Prime Minister and Wu Nu did not answer the middle-aged man, but soon, the city tower creaked open, and Fang Jie walked out alone, and then the city gate was immediately locked.

Youdao is that enemies are extremely jealous when they meet, and the two masters of heaven and man who have been humiliated because they lost their commander immediately rush forward to tear apart the future.

Even middle-aged people want this guy who snatched his ballista and tied his father's Firefox as a watchdog to die without a whole body.

But at the same time, they all understood that the three ballistas were aiming at them now, and the young king had not been rescued yet, so no matter how angry they were, they could only endure it.

The two masters of heaven and man shouted in unison: "Where is our king?"

Fang Jie ignored them, and set his eyes on the middle-aged man, and asked with a smile: "Are you the commander of the Xirong army, Tuzang?"

The ignored Tianren blushed with pride, and the middle-aged man replied, "I am."

Fang Jie showed a regretful expression when he heard the words, and said: "I didn't expect that your commander is a warrior, and your strength is quite strong. Otherwise, I will repeat the old trick and tie you up under the noses of these two defeated generals." , that’s much more cost-effective than kidnapping that young king.”

The two masters of heaven and man were stunned when they heard the words, and then they were furious, and then they opened their mouths to curse, but Tuzang stretched out his hand to stop him, and then said to Fang Jie with unchanged expression: "No matter how much you talk, you just want to anger me , let me lose my sense of proportion, and then you can have a reason to continue to keep our king as a talisman?" Then he glanced at the two masters of heaven and man, and said expressionlessly: "We will not be fooled by you, and you It’s also best not to go back on your word and say that today we are going to redeem people, and if we come today, we must take our king away.”

As soon as Fang Jie tried it out, he immediately knew that this soil treasure was not easy to deal with, and he was secretly careful about this person, but he said: "Okay, what about the ransom?"

Tuzang said, "What do you want?"

Fang Jie looked contemplative, then chuckled, and said, "To be honest, our Jin Kingdom has a large number of reinforcements now, and hundreds of thousands of mouths have to eat every day. As a city guard, I feel very stressed, so I now What I want most is enough food."

Tuzang thought in his heart that it was indeed so, and he didn't seem surprised by this request, and asked directly, "How much do you want?"

Fang Jie said: "As far as I know, you Xirong has stored tens of millions of dans of grain, and I don't want to ask for more, so just give me 800 million dans."

Hearing this, the expressions of the two celestial masters sank, but Tuzang replied: "Yes."

Fang Jie was surprised, because 800 million dans of grain was at least the entire ration of the Xirong Allied Forces for a month. Without these grains, the entire Xirong Allied Forces would be hungry. It can give the Xirong Allied Forces the most destructive method, and it is impossible for Tuzang not to know about the stakes. Fang Jie originally thought that if he opened his mouth, the other party would refuse, and he was even ready to bargain, but the actual situation, But Tuzang agreed without hesitation, which is really unexpected.

At the same time, hearing Tuzang's straightforward answer, the Prime Minister above the tower frowned and said, "This Tuzang is very difficult to deal with."

The woman also nodded with her brows furrowed.

And under the city, without waiting for Fang Jie to say anything, Tuzang said: "I gave you most of our food, and it may take seven or eight days for a new batch of food to arrive. That is to say, my soldiers must be at least hungry. Four or five days, but you don’t understand us Xirong people, you don’t know that most of our people grew up hungry and have already adapted to the days without food, so I’m telling you without exaggeration that even three If you don’t eat, our soldiers can still attack your city screaming, and they will be a hundred times more ferocious than when they are full.”

Hearing this, Fang Jie's heart sank, but on the surface he smiled and said: "In that case, please send the food as soon as possible. We will hand over the food and the people."

Dozo nodded and said, "Yes."

So Fang Jie turned around and prepared to go back to the city.

But at this time, Tu Zang suddenly said: "Fang Jie, there is something I want to tell you."

"What?" Fang Jie stopped and asked.

Tuzang looked at Fang Jie and said, "According to your supernatural powers, if I were you, I would choose to go to the second battlefield belonging to warriors."

But Fang Jie said: "Of course I will go to the second battlefield, but before that, I must first defend my family and the country."

Tuzang shook his head and said: "What I mean is, it is very unfair that a person like you, who has outstanding combat effectiveness even in the second battlefield of warriors, appears on the battlefield of the army. You have suffered a big loss, and you will never let it happen again, so as long as you are here, I will personally command the war against Jin, and dispatch more troops and stronger warriors."

Fang Jie smiled when he heard the words: "Are you threatening me?"

"No." Tuzang shook his head: "I'm just telling you a fact, and I will do what I say in the future."

Fang Jie didn't speak, turned around and walked away.

The city gate creaked open, and soon he entered the city. When the city gate was closed immediately, Tuzang told the two people beside him, "Go get food."

A celestial master immediately flew away like a streamer.

And Tuzang is still waiting under the city wall.

At the same time, the prime minister on the tower came down and joined Fang Jie.

Mr. Zhao Guo said: "What should we do now, the other party has gone to fetch food and grass, should we let that young king go?"

The Prime Minister said: "Although the young man's king is in our hands, it can be used as a talisman to keep the Xirong coalition forces from invading, but the other party has already agreed to the conditions we put forward. If we don't let him go, it will anger the other party. If not, the result may not be worth the candle.”

Wu Nu nodded and said, "People must be let go."

So everyone looked at Fang Jie, waiting for his meaning.

Fang Jie was silent for a while, and finally said to Zhao Zidan: "Go and bring him out, once the food is available, send him out of the city."

Zhao Zidan nodded and went to do it immediately.

So Fang Jie and the prime minister went up to the tower.

Not long after, a stream of light fell under the city wall, and I saw the celestial master who had left before appearing in front of the horse in the soil with a dozen storage bags all over his body, and then walked to the city gate step by step, and finally put ten A few storage bags, a lot of them all on the ground, and returned.

On the top of the city tower, the Prime Minister Fu Tong appeared, and he had an insight into the internal situation of the storage bag, and said to everyone: "The quantity is correct, and the food is also fine."

So Zhao Zidan turned back to the city and said, "Let him go."

Immediately, the city gate creaked open, and a young servant appeared with an unscathed young king, pushed the man away, and then quickly picked up a dozen storage bags.

Seeing Wang, the two masters of heaven and man rushed forward immediately, ignoring the soldiers who grabbed the storage bag and ran towards the city gate, and hurriedly untied the young Wang, asking this and that.

However, the young Wang said: "It's okay, they didn't do anything to me."

The two celestial masters were relieved.

Immediately, the young Wang looked at Tuzang, with a hint of shame on his expression, he lowered his head and said, "Brother Dashan, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Tuzang, known as Brother Dashan, still had no expression on his face. He didn't glance at the noble Wang, and ignored his apology. Instead, he looked up at the tower, found Fang Jie's position, and said, "Fang Jie, I I respect you for being a hero, what I said to you before is also a good intention, I hope you will remember it, and it is best to think about it." Then he clasped his fists and rode away.

Seeing this, the young king mounted a group of horses and chased after him.

The two celestial masters lost the king once, like a frightened bird, no doubt they were more careful this time, the two flew in the sky and followed closely, not daring to leave half a step, for fear that the king would be taken away again.

On the tower, Fang Jie kept watching these people return to the Xirong coalition army camp, his expression was always gloomy, and at the same time, he was also somewhat thoughtful.
