After Lu You was seriously injured, he galloped away on horseback, but Xia Yi did not chase him. He didn't know how Lu You managed to survive under his "Eight-Door Golden Lock" just now, but Xia Yi knew that Lu You was far stronger than himself.
Even if he chases after him, he may not be able to kill him. Besides, he is only here to help in the fight, but Xing Long...
When the soldiers of the Later Tang Dynasty saw that they were running with their commanders and horses, while Xia Yi stood upright in front of them, they all ran around like a broken army. Xia Yi walked slowly to the blackened corpse. He knew that Xing Long
What a huge impact he endured before his death. If it weren't for his strong strength, he might not even be able to preserve this little body.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the black clouds in the sky could not disperse for a long time. It was like a huge black fog shrouded the entire Xuancheng, pressing down on it. From time to time, one or two muffled thunders were heard, shaking the walls of Xuancheng.
The fragile nerves of every soldier.
Suddenly, a gust of wind roared, and the flying stones on the ground circled and flew in front of the Xuancheng city wall again, making a "whooshing" sound. From time to time, the mournful screams of monsters could be heard from the distant forest, as if they were related to the strong wind.
Let's play a sad song together.
"Squeaky..."
Xuancheng's falling bridge slowly fell down, and the city gate also slowly opened. Five generals galloped out from inside, namely Cui Zong, the lord of Xuancheng City, Zhang Yu, the lord of Hubao Camp, and the lord of Tiefeng Camp.
Haotian, Feng Ming, the leader of the Shenbing Camp, and Yue Mo, the leader of the Shadow Guard Camp.
After the five of them crossed the bridge, they dismounted one after another, walked to Xing Long's body, and looked at it quietly, unable to tell what everyone was thinking.
"Mr. Xia, Marshal Xing is dead. Let's carry his body to the city!" Haotian was familiar with Xia Yi and spoke first.
There was no expression on Yue Mo's cold face. He just looked at Xing Long's body coldly, and then at Xia Yi, with an imperceptible hint of coldness in his eyes.
At this time, Zhang Yu stepped forward, took off his cloak, covered Xing Long's burned body, and then stood up and said to Xia Yi: "Mr. Xia, now Commander Xing Long is killed, and although Tang Luyou was injured
, but I think he will definitely make a comeback in a few days, and I'm afraid that you, sir, will not be his opponent, so we'd better report it to the Emperor quickly and let the Emperor make a decision."
Everyone had no objections to Zhang Yu's proposal. Xia Yi had no interest in these things in Xia's case. If Su Le hadn't asked him to come, he would definitely not have intervened in the battle of Xuancheng. But when he saw Xing Long
When Xia Yi fought alone to attract Lu You's attention and create a chance to kill Lu You, Xia Yi suddenly felt that the Xia Kingdom was not as unbearable as he thought. At least there were people like Xing Long who risked their lives for the Xia Kingdom.
's general.
Looking at Xing Long's body lying on the ground, Xia Yi seemed to see the fall of a general of the Xia Kingdom. At the same time, he felt that the crumbling Xia Kingdom was getting closer to its collapse.
"You make your own decisions. I'm tired and I'm going to take a rest." After the battle just now, Xia Yi's physical strength and vitality were greatly exhausted, especially his last blow. In order to prevent Lu You from escaping, Xia Yi had already
Having used almost all his energy, he was also a little tired at this time, so he said to everyone.
"In this case, sir, please go back to the city to rest. We will bury Marshal Xing well." Zhang Yu saluted Xia Yi.
In the evening, under the arrangement of the city lord Cui Zong, two to three hundred soldiers wearing white clothes and white collars solemnly carried Xing Long's body and slowly entered Xuancheng. Along the way were the people of Xuancheng watching.
, they all seemed to know the news of Xia Guo's commander-in-chief Xing Long's death in battle, and everyone could not help but show a trace of sadness on their faces.
"Woo..."
A mournful neighing of military horns echoed continuously over Xuancheng between the Big and Small Immortal Peaks. The trees far and near also undulated like waves with the evening breeze, mixed with the smell of blood. I don’t know.
When, in the mountains and forests outside Xuancheng
In the middle of the night, the mournful screams of some monster beasts were heard. I don’t know whether the battle between the three military prime ministers during the day affected their children or destroyed their homes. The sad roars were accompanied by the screams of the horns in the army.
, as if playing a post-war lament.
The pale bright moon also began to push away the dark clouds, as if it was startled by the tragic song below Xuancheng, showing its pale face, wanting to see what was happening below. But after a while, the black clouds covered the bright moon again, and suddenly
Let the night in Xuancheng fall into boundless darkness again.
"Soldiers and fellow villagers, Commander Xing Longshuai sacrificed his life for the country and died a worthy death. We will always remember his meritorious service and cherish his deeds forever. He is the savior of our Xuancheng and the hero of our Xia Kingdom!"
Long's body was carried to a general's temple in the west of the city. Cui Jiong shouted loudly to the soldiers and people who came to worship Xing Long.
The people in Xuancheng all know that there is a general temple in Xuancheng. There were many wars between the Xia Kingdom and the Later Tang Dynasty hundreds of years ago. As an outpost, Xuancheng has become an important military town, and many war-related temples have been established in the city.
Buildings, such as this General Temple, were built because many powerful generals were killed in the war and there was no time to transport them to the capital for burial, so their bodies were placed here first and then transported to the capital or other places for burial after the war slowed down.
.
Hundreds of years later, although the relationship between the Later Tang Dynasty and the Xia Kingdom has always been good and there have been few battles, the General Temple in Xuancheng has been preserved to this day and has become a holy place for Xuancheng soldiers and people to pay homage to their predecessors. Today, Marshal Xing serves as
An important minister of the two dynasties, and the commander-in-chief of the fight against the invasion of the Later Tang Dynasty, unexpectedly died in Jiuquan in today's battle. Presenting his body in the General Temple did not disgrace his achievements and reputation.
The reason why Cui Jiong agreed with Zhang Yu to let everyone in the city know the news of Xing Long's death in battle was because he wanted to inspire the soldiers to resist the enemy and mobilize their bloodiness and revenge.
As for how Zhang Yu and the others considered it, Cui Zong didn't know, but he noticed that Zhang Yu and Feng Ming stared at Yue Mo from time to time, wondering if they had any thoughts.
"Soldiers and fellow villagers, let us see Marshal Xing off for the last time!" Cui Zong looked around at the soldiers and civilians and shouted loudly, "His blood will not be shed in vain. We will definitely inherit Marshal Xing's legacy and keep the declaration."
City, use our flesh and blood to build an indestructible wall for Xia Kingdom!"
The thousands of people watching silently lowered their heads, as if they were seeing off Xing Longtou, and as if they were secretly determined to defend Xuancheng. But Zhang Yu looked at Cui Zong and shouted as if something was wrong, his face unconscious.
He showed a sneer.
After Cui Jiong and others placed Xing Long's body in place, everyone exited the general temple. Cui Jiong was considered an excellent city lord. As soon as he had arranged Xing Long's affairs, he led his soldiers to the city wall again to
After guarding against a surprise attack by the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Yu and other camp leaders returned to their camps, and the crowd in front of the General Temple dispersed.
After more than half an hour, two figures flashed into Zhang Yu's Hubao Camp tent. One was in black and the other was in blue. It was Mo Mo, the leader of the Shadow Guard Camp, and Feng Ming, the leader of the Shenbing Camp.
.
Seeing these two people coming, Zhang Yu chuckled and said, "You are here. The situation now is better than we expected. Xing Long's death has saved us a lot of effort in getting rid of him."
Feng Ming also smiled and said: "What Camp Leader Zhang said was that originally I thought it would take a lot of trouble to kill Xing Long, but now it seems that things are developing so smoothly. The next step depends on Camp Leader Yue.
"
Yue Mo's face was stern, his eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "I won't give him any chance to deal with him. I believe that my father's Life and Death Pill will make him surrender to me. I will wait for Xia Yanbing's reinforcements then."
Once we arrive, the good show in Xuancheng will begin, and the good show in Beijing will also begin."
Zhang Yu stepped forward, patted Yue Mo's shoulder gently and said, "If this succeeds, the Yue family will be indispensable. By then, the great power of the Xia Kingdom will belong to our three families. However, before you take action,
, you must be careful, he is very powerful, if your father comes, I will not worry, I am afraid that your skills will not be able to control him."
When Yue Mo heard this, his eyes suddenly shot out a cold light, and he said with a sullen face: "You don't believe in my strength?"
Zhang Yu quickly laughed a few times and said: "Brother Yue, what are you saying? This matter is of great importance. After all, he is not so easy to deal with. I hope you will be careful in everything and fight for us to decide!"
"Don't worry, tonight I will take advantage of his weakness to control him firmly." After Yue Ming finished speaking, he ducked into the darkness again.
"Brother Feng, this opportunity is rare, we should take action." Zhang Yu said to Feng Ming with a smile.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and a huge dark cloud seems to be floating over Xuancheng, lingering.
