Chapter 792: Garrisoning the Wind Gate Fortress
Shen Zheng nodded slowly and said something that did not surprise those in the court.
If someone else were to testify, many people would think that the credibility was not high, but Shen Zheng was different. He had just dueled with Ming Yuebai not long ago, and it was clear that they were hostile to each other.
Favorable testimony from the enemy's mouth has the highest credibility.
Ming Yuebai smiled, while Yue Mingguang was disappointed.
Shen Zheng glanced at each of them, his eyes seeming to say: I understand what you are thinking.[
Ming Yuebai had calculated that Shen Zheng still wanted to retain his own power to fight against the invasion of other worlds, so he forced him to prove his innocence.
Shen Zheng also understood Yue Mingguang's thoughts. The emperor wished that Shen Zheng and Ming Yuebai would fight to the death, so that his throne would not be threatened.
Because of this, Shen Zheng cannot defeat Ming Yuebai, otherwise Yue Mingguang's next target will be himself.
The delicate triangular balance is relatively safe and secure.
"While capturing Xuan Yi Lei, we also rescued a group of women." Shen Zheng said, "They come from two empires - the Holy Blood Empire and the Xiwu Empire. These are gifts from the two empires to Xuan Yi Lei. "
There was a commotion in the hall again, and the discussion was endless.
"Okay!" Yue Mingguang suddenly patted the throne and stood up. He looked around at everyone with a gloomy face.
"I have known about this for a long time." He said, "The traitor is Xuanyu Liuguang himself. We originally planned to make a long-term plan to uncover the conspiracy of the Xiwu Empire at the same time when he came into contact with the spies of the Xiwu Empire, but we did not expect this. The traitor went too far and went so far as to blindly defy the Xiwu Empire and delay our country from sending troops to support the third border zone. The Generalissimo had no choice but to take action! He brought the blame on himself and has nothing to do with the rest of the Xuan family. Listen up to the Xuan family - as long as you are loyal to Yue The matter of Xuan Empire and Xuan Yu Liuguang will not involve you."
As he said that, he nodded to Ming Yuebai: "Generalissimo, please immediately send someone to search Xuanyu Liuguang's home to see if you can find anything."
"Yes!" Ming Yuebai nodded and immediately led the people there.
Here, some royal guards came to dispose of Xuanyu Liuguang's body - of course, there was only one head left in the body, so it was easy to clean up.
Everyone in the court waited anxiously, and not long after, Ming Yuebai strode back and actually found something.
"Your Majesty, we have found a batch of special treasures from the Holy Blood Empire and the Xiwu Empire; a batch of space orbs with the special aura of the orb masters of the two countries. There are also several letters of intention." He said, waving his hand from space Insect Core moved these things to the main hall in front of everyone.
Several letters flew in front of Yue Mingguang. After that, Yue Mingguang became furious and threw the letters directly to the Xuan family present.
"Do it yourselves!" He roared angrily, "It's clearly written in it - the Xiwu Empire asked him to delay sending troops so that he could take the opportunity to attack the entire third border zone!"
"This is... true!" A veteran of the Xuan family exclaimed, holding the letter in his hand. "I once visited the Xiwu Empire with His Majesty, and the power and breath of thought in this letter are exactly those of Xiwu. The emperor’s, it can’t be wrong!”
"Yes, it is indeed." Many people, including those from the Xuan family and other families, came together and after careful inspection, they found that it was indeed a letter generated by Emperor Xiwu's will, and it was definitely not a fake.
Although no letter written by Xuanyu Liuguang to the other party was found, these alone are enough to prove everything.
If anyone wants to make this fake, it is impossible because they cannot obtain the authentic work of Emperor Xiwu.[
Everyone in the Xuan family looked at each other in shock, not daring to speak out. The traitor's big hat was too heavy, and no one knew that their necks could not bear such weight.
The evidence is in front of them. Anyone who dares to defend Xuanyu Liuguang is tantamount to sympathizing with the traitor, or even being on the same level as the traitor. No one dares to speak out anymore. On the contrary, voices denounced Xuanyu Liuguang surged up everywhere, and the chief senator suddenly became A great villain who is despised by thousands of people.
"Since the Xiwu Empire is indeed going to invade our country, we must start discussing sending troops." Yue Mingguang's voice was majestic, and everyone said yes.
After bypassing the Council of Elders and deliberation, Yue Mingguang directly issued the order to dispatch troops. Ming Yuebai's gloomy expression finally softened and he began to mobilize troops.
"Sir Shen, please go to the front line this time." Yue Mingguang said to Shen Zheng alone, "I can't worry about Ming Yuebai being alone. Besides, even if my suspicions are eliminated, there is always a need for experts on the front line. "
"I will stay and help His Majesty guard the empire." Xinghui Lanhai said, "I have been away for a long enough time. As I get older, I also begin to miss my homeland and don't want to leave."
"In terms of appearance, you are even younger than me." Shen Zheng smiled.
"Are you kidding me?" Xinghui Lanhai grinned, "You are a fraction of my age and I can call you ancestor." After saying this, he burst into laughter.
"The way you said it, anyone else would have fought you tooth and nail." Shen Ying muttered to the side unhappily.
"Let's make some preparations and then go to the front line." Shen Zheng said to Shen Ying and others. "First return to the Holy Alliance and mobilize some troops. After all, there is strength in numbers."
"Okay." They nodded.
After agreeing on the specific details of the march arrangement, Shen Zheng bid farewell to Yue Mingguang and returned to the legendary secret realm. When Zi Yuanshang got married, more than three hundred Holy Spirits rushed to the imperial capital to congratulate them, and they returned on their own after the wedding. At this time, Shen Zheng Then he put them into the secret realm of water and fire, preparing to use them as a surprise force in wartime.
Apart from this, Shen Zheng did not bring any more people. Almost half of the Holy Alliance's personnel were guarding the Xuexuan Base, and the remaining half also had to ensure the safety of the legendary secret realm. Shen Zheng couldn't help but sigh. There are still not enough troops available.
However, after being reminded by Shen Ying, he remembered the holy beasts of Xue Xuan Realm again, so he went to Xue Xuan Realm in person and mobilized another 50,000 strong men from the five Holy Spirit Clan. In this way, a legion was truly formed. scale.
After all this was over, more than ten days had passed. Shen Zheng did not dare to delay any more and directly loaded the legion into the secret realm of water and fire and flew towards the third border zone. At this time, he had become a major figure in the Yuexuan Empire. No one could stop him wherever he passed. When the commanders of each defense area learned that he was passing through their territory, they lined up to welcome him and send him off.
When Shen Zheng rushed to the third defense area, Ming Yuebai had already deployed his army here. When Shen Zheng entered his headquarters, he was busy arranging the deployment of the army. After everything was done, he came to see Shen Zheng.
"Sorry, you're here too, I'm really too busy." Ming Yuebai moved his neck and made a clicking sound, obviously he was really tired.
"It doesn't matter," Shen Zheng said. "You are the generalissimo, and everything here is under your command. You can arrange what I should do."
"Okay." Ming Yuebai nodded and said nothing about the grievances between the two. "The Xiwu Empire is moving very quickly. Many of the outer fortresses have been captured by their troops. Soon they will be close to the inner siege. This is very dangerous. There is a fortress near the middle level on the outside, called Fengmen Fortress, and its location is very important."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and took out the star map, unfolded it in the air for Shen Zheng, and pointed out the fortress.
"Here you are, after it falls, the three military bases behind it will immediately be within reach of the enemy." He said, "But the current manpower is really not enough. Over the years, because of the restrictions of the Elder Council, our ** team The number has been reduced repeatedly, and it is already stretched thin when facing such a large-scale invasion. So..."
"Do you need me to guard it?" Shen Zheng asked.[
"The fortress itself has 30,000 troops." Ming Yuebai said, "But they are all warriors who lack training and have limited combat effectiveness. Can you do it? If I feel danger, I can think of another way. After all, you were assigned by His Majesty... …”
He smiled slightly: "Spying on me."
"No." Shen Zheng shook his head. "My existence is not to attack anyone, but to protect it. In the future, what I want to protect is our plane, and now it is our empire."
"Then I'll leave it to you." Ming Yuebai nodded and waved to call his adjutant.
"Take Sir Shen to Fengmen Fortress and take over the whole place."
"Yes!" The adjutant saluted solemnly and respectfully invited Shen Zheng to the fast lanes in the headquarters. He entered one of them together, and soon after, came to a secret realm with a suspended fortress.
This secret realm is similar to an ordinary fortress-type secret realm. There are no special decorations. In addition to the empty space, there are only two defensive fortresses in the entire secret realm.
As soon as the two people came out of the express lane, an officer came up to them and solemnly saluted Ming Yuebai's adjutant: "Hello, sir!"
"This is Sir Shen." The adjutant pointed at Shen Zheng. "That's Sir Shen Zheng."
"What?" The officer was startled, and the expression on his face became more respectful. He straightened his chest and shouted excitedly at Shen Zheng: "Hello, Sir Shen! I am the commander of Fengmen Fortress. Huan Zhenhong!"
Then he gave a very standard military salute.
"Hello." Shen Zheng smiled faintly.
"By the order of the Generalissimo, Sir Shen will take over the entire area. You must obey Sir Shen's orders completely and guard this important fortress," the adjutant said.
"Yes!" Huan Zhenhong was a little excited and saluted again.
"Sir Shen, then I'll leave first." The adjutant saluted Shen Zheng, then retreated to the express lane and returned to the headquarters.
"I heard there are 30,000 troops here?" Shen Zheng asked Huan Zhenhong.
"Yes." Huan Zhenhong nodded hurriedly, "I will summon them now to listen to your lecture! They will be excited to death when they know that Sir Shen is here to lead us."
"Isn't that too exaggerated?" Shen Zheng smiled.
"It's not an exaggeration at all!" Huan Zhenhong said excitedly, "You defeated the empire's veteran top powerhouse Xing Hui Lanhai in the imperial capital, and you also tied with the empire's legendary Marshal Ming Yuebai. This matter has been spread among the military. It’s open. We don’t have the chance to fight on the battlefield with Marshal Ming Yuebai, but being able to fight side by side with you is enough to be a lifetime honor.”
Shen Zheng smiled faintly: "Gather them."
"Yes!" Huan Zhenhong saluted and left immediately.
