Sigu Sword Attacks

Sigu Sword Attacks

In Nanjing City, Qin Ye led 180,000 Qing troops into the city and implemented military control, while the remaining nearly 200,000 Qing troops camped outside the city to protect the left and right sides.

He actually considered massacring the city. After all, controlling a large city like Nanjing with a population of one million requires a lot of effort. It also needs to be prepared for the Northern Qi to cooperate with the outside. If one is not careful, it is not impossible for the Northern Qi to retake Nanjing.

As the commander-in-chief of the Qing Army, he naturally received news of the coming reinforcements from Dongyi City.

To avoid being attacked from both sides, it is necessary to clean up the city of Nanjing as soon as possible.

However, Zhao Yun bluntly disagreed with the massacre of the city. He believed that some high-ranking officials and nobles could be killed, but ordinary people should not act rashly.

Qin Ye was naturally a little angry, but at this moment he didn't know how to communicate with Zhao Yun.

As a veteran ninth-level master, he felt Zhao Yun's frightening master aura the day he broke through the city.

A real grand master is so terrifying. If he were to be killed with a single shot, it would be difficult to pursue him. It is even impossible to say that Emperor Qing would be kind enough to comfort him.

What particularly puzzled him was that there were always so many great masters in the world.

Why do such strange and young great masters appear so frequently in recent times?

It’s okay to have Li Gaoming in Kyoto, and Zhao Yun in Zhengbei Camp.

When did Grandmaster become so cheap?

Moreover, he was not sure what Zhao Yun wanted to do by pretending to be a seventh-level soldier and join the army, and who was standing behind him?

Naturally, he didn't believe that Zhao Yun was really at the seventh level when he joined the army, because no one could step from the seventh level to the Grand Master in just a few months.

It's just that such a person is actually willing to rise from the bottom step by step through military merit.

Picture what?

After all, as long as he shows the cultivation of a great master, he will immediately become a guest of all countries, with a transcendent status.

You must know that even he, the great general of the Qing Kingdom, is not as good as a great master in terms of status.

This made him feel a little anxious and uneasy.

No matter how you look at it, this person seems to have been deliberately sent to replace his existence.

Qin Ye has a lot of experience, but he is really not sure about Zhao Yun's background and background.

Moreover, now looking at Zhao Yun's resume, the ordinary resume information seems to be somewhat meaningful.

To be able to disguise a person's resume so authentically that he can even hide it from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Military Department, he must be a big shot in the court.

After thinking for a long time, he finally gave up the plan to massacre the city, but he definitely could not keep some of the remaining Northern Qi officials and dignitaries in Nanjing.

Zhao Yun had no objection to this.

He prevented Qin Ye from massacring the city so that when Li Chengqian unified the world in the future, there would be less resistance from the people.

Moreover, in his previous life, he was a general of the Shu Han Dynasty. The leader of the Shu Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, was famous for his benevolence. Although his lord was no longer Liu Bei, he did not want his lord to have too much blood on his hands in the future.

After that, Zhao Yun did not participate too much in the Qing army.

He naturally saw Qin Ye's complicated thoughts, and he did not intend to pay attention to them. Now he only needed to train his troops well, guard Nanjing City, and then wait for the imperial court's decree.

The great achievements in the Battle of Lishan and the Battle of Nanjing were enough to win him considerable awards.

He believed that Li Chengqian, who was far away in Kyoto, must have arranged everything.



Outside Jianmen Pass, on a secluded slope, two figures stood quietly here.

One of them was Ku He, the Imperial Master of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The other middle-aged man, who was not tall and was wearing linen clothes, had a cold face, and in his gaze, there was a sharpness that could almost pierce the sky.

"The city was destroyed in one day. They are really a bunch of losers."

He said coldly, not taking Beiqi seriously in his words.

Ku He's face darkened, and he said slowly: "Si Gu Jian, you don't have to use your words. In addition to Si Gu Jian, there is also a great master of spears in the Qingguo army. He is not under you and me, and there is no one to guard against."

, this person directly broke down the city gate and led people into Nanjing City."

In fact, although the Grand Master is strong, he is still made of flesh and blood.

If the Northern Qi Dynasty had taken precautions, used various weapons to defend the city, and blocked it with tens of thousands of crossbows, even if Nanjing City would eventually be defeated, it would not be unable to recover in such a short period of time.

Si Gu Jian smiled sarcastically, but he also felt a little solemn in his heart.

There are too many great masters in the Qing Kingdom.

He had sneaked into Kyoto three times in an attempt to attack Emperor Qing, but each time he was frightened away by a strange aura of a grand master.

Not long ago, a great master named Li Gaoming appeared in Kyoto who could cut down half the lake with one sword. Now, another great master of marksmanship appeared in the Qing army.

Coupled with the veteran grandmaster Ye Liuyun, the Qing Kingdom actually has four great masters.

At the level of Grand Master, everyone is the best among men. If it is not three against one, almost no one can be sure of victory.

Now even if he joins forces with Northern Qi, how can he be his opponent in a two versus four situation?

Four great masters, how God bless Nanqing!

There was a bit of violence in his eyes. As a grand master, he actually felt that it was a bit unfair.

Especially when Ye Qingmei abandoned Dongyi and chose Nanqing, he still can't let go.

"After so many years, my bones have become rusty. Now that I'm out, I can stretch my muscles and bones."

His voice was cold and stern, and as soon as he finished speaking, he set off and galloped towards Nanjing City.

Ku He pondered for a moment and then set off to follow him.

He had actually realized that even if Si Gu Jian came here, it would be difficult for Northern Qi to retake the city of Nanjing.

After all, there are now two great masters in the Qing army.

But it is necessary to show strength.

Even if it is possible, killing the great master of the Qing army may not necessarily prevent Nanjing from being recaptured.

Later, taking advantage of this situation to re-establish the alliance, Northern Qi will definitely gain great benefits in the negotiations.

Two against four won't work, but two against three, he is quite confident.

At the thought of this, Ku He, who had always been peaceful, also had a terrifying killing intent in his eyes.



"Oh no, General, Si, Si Gu Jian and Ku He are here!"

A messenger rushed into Qin Ye's camp in a hurry.

Qin Ye's expression changed drastically, but he calmed down and said, "Have you notified General Zhao Yun?"

The military commander shook his head and said: "Not yet, I came to see you as soon as possible."

Qin Ye immediately said: "Go and inform General Zhao Yun." After saying that, he hesitated and said: "No need, I will go and invite him personally."

Facing the two great masters, although he had hundreds of thousands of troops at his disposal, the huge city of Nanjing was spread out, and only a few thousand people could guard him at most.

If the two great masters wanted to join forces to kill him, these people might not be able to stop them at all.

However, when he hurried to Zhao Yun's camp, there was no one there.

He hurriedly asked aloud: "Where is General Zhao?"

"General Zhao has left the city!"
