The sun sets over the mountains, and the vast mountains are shrouded in darkness.
In the mountain forest, there were seven or eight people trekking hard. These people seemed to be in pain all over, and the atmosphere was extremely depressed...
After walking through the high mountains for an hour, the sky was already filled with stars and the moon was like a hook. One of them hissed: "Take a rest." Listening to the voice, it was Deng Xiaoxian.
Two hours ago, they were riding horses on the mountain road to escape for their lives. After turning a mountain col, Zhou Gan suddenly reined in the horse and said in a deep voice: "We can't run like this anymore, I have an idea!" After that, he suddenly took action,
It hit Wang Xian's sweet black hole. Wang Xian was already in a very bad state and had no reaction at all, so he fainted.
"What are you going to do!" Zhou Yong hurriedly hugged Wang Xian, and Ling Xiao even raised his weapon and stabbed Zhou Gan!
"Change your armor!" Zhou Gan said in a deep voice. Lingxiao's weapon stopped just half an inch from the tip of his nose. He stared at Zhou Gan closely and heard him say in a deep voice: "Put on your Lord's armor.
Lead the large troops and continue to run forward. You and the adults will hide in the bushes on the roadside. When the pursuers pass, go up the mountain to see if you can get out of danger by climbing over the mountain!"
After saying that, Zhou Gan took off Wang Xian's armor and put it on himself...
Zhou Gan sacrificed himself and his brothers in exchange for Deng Xiaoxian, Zhou Yong, Lingxiao, Gu Xiaolian and three guards to protect Wang Xian up the mountain. Wang Xian had woken up half an hour ago, and after waking up, he only
After saying "I'll go on my own", I never said a word again.
Deng Xiaoxian proposed to rest for a while. No one objected, no one spoke, everyone sat down quietly, and the quiet atmosphere was suffocating... This nightmare-like day tortured everyone and was unable to extricate themselves!
Deng Xiaoxian tried his best to twist his thigh - his younger brother, the brothers who came out to conquer the world with him, and Hu Sandao, who was always noisy with him but treated him with courage, these people are all dead! Deng Xiaoxian thought
He pinched himself awake to confirm that it was just a nightmare, but the real pain told him clearly that this was a nightmare, but it was also a fact! Deng Xiaoxian burst into tears...
The rest of the people also began to sob. Except for the eight of them, all the brothers who came to Shandong died. Who can accept such a tragic fact?! I am afraid that they will not be able to accept it in this life!
Wang Xian was sitting with his back against a tree, without a single tear or expression, just like a tree stump. Ling Xiao and Gu Xiaolian looked at each other heartbrokenly. They knew what happened today, and they felt sorry for Wang Xian.
It is destructive... Although he is equally cruel to everyone, Wang Xian will definitely take the responsibility for the death of all his brothers on his own shoulders! Even if he is made of steel, he cannot bear it...
The two wanted to persuade Wang Xian, but they found that any words at this moment were pale and ridiculous. They could only sit beside him silently, hoping that in this way, they could share some of the pain in his heart...
After resting for more than half an hour, Gu Xiaolian suddenly stood up and listened to something. Everyone knew that she had six senses, so they all held their breath to avoid disturbing her hearing.
After a while, Gu Xiaolian calmed down and whispered: "Someone is searching the mountain..."
Deng Xiaoxian and Zhou Yong looked at each other. The latter quickly climbed up a big tree, looked at it for a moment, and then slid down.
"Yes. There are thousands of torches three to five miles to the east, and there are also many farther to the west and north." Zhou Yong said in a deep voice.
"It seems..." Deng Xiaoxian's expression darkened when he heard this, and he choked with sobs: "Zhou Gan and the others have already..." Everyone lowered their heads.
"..." The one who feels the most heartbroken here is naturally Zhou Yong. He and Zhou Gan are cousins. They grew up together, worked as agents with Zhou Xin together, and then followed Wang Xian in the wars. Their relationship has long been better than that of real brothers!
But he was the calmest at the moment. He couldn't let Zhou Gan's sacrifice be in vain!
After gathering his composure, Zhou Yong said in a deep voice: "We must move immediately!"
"Which direction?!" Deng Xiaoxian was making a living on the plains of rivers and rivers. When he arrived in the mountains and forests, his eyesight was completely black. He thought of Hu Sandao again. If the bandit leader was here, he would be able to easily lead everyone to escape.
But that bastard is no longer here... Deng Xiaoxian felt pain in his heart again and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Zhou Yong glanced at Wang Xian and hissed: "Sir! Now is not the time to blame yourself. You have to take us out of here!"
Wang Xian nodded slowly, frowning slightly, obviously thinking about what to do. Seeing that Wang Xian seemed to cheer up, everyone felt relieved and waited quietly for Wang Xian's decision.
But Wang Xian's confidence had been destroyed. He wanted to make a judgment, but his mind was in chaos. Those dead brothers were swaying in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern, making it impossible for him to think at all.
"I can't help it..." Wang Xian's voice was as hoarse as an eighty-year-old man, and he could only shake his head feebly...
"..." Gu Xiaolian shed tears of heartache. She knew that the more tenacious a person is, the harder it will be to return to normal after being completely defeated. Wang Xian is the most tenacious person he has ever seen. At this moment
But to say such words... It shows how completely his confidence has been destroyed this time, and he doesn't know when it will be restored...
Everyone was also sad, and then looked at Gu Xiaolian, who said softly: "Brother Zhou and Brother Deng will discuss it."
"Okay." Deng Xiaoxian nodded, and after a quick discussion with Zhou Yong, the two decided to move south. Since the enemy sent thousands of people to search the mountains overnight, there would be a heavy concentration of troops in the direction of Zichuan, Qingzhou, and they would definitely not be able to escape if they hit them head-on.
.
At this time, what is most needed is decision-making. Whether it is a good decision or a bad decision, one must make an immediate decision. Since it was said to go south, everyone immediately stood up, identified the direction, and moved south from the mountains and forests...
The Yidu Mountain area in the middle of the night has never been so lively as it is now. Tens of thousands of people hold torches and form long fire dragons, surrounding the mountains. They search carefully like a plow, not sparing any grass or trees.
Hunters from the Qingzhou area were summoned. These hunters, who were as familiar with the Yidu Mountains as their mothers, were the main force in this search. They led thousands of hounds that were good at tracking and walked through the mountains and forests vigilantly, looking for any clues.
No one can escape the pursuit of these hunters!
They followed the traces of Wang Xian and others into the mountains, plowed through mountain ridges, and searched through mountains and forests. They followed until midnight, but still did not catch up with Wang Xian and others. This made Zhu Zhantan, who was personally in charge, very anxious and couldn't help but wonder.
His anger was directed at Ma Zhong who was on the stretcher.
"Are you an idiot?!" Zhu Zhantan pointed at Ma Zhong and gritted his teeth and said: "Twenty thousand people are trying to catch turtles in a urn, but you can let a man named Wang escape?! What do you do for food?!"
In February, Wei Wuque came to the King of Han, and the two reached a consensus that Wang Xian would be eliminated in Shandong at all costs! Wei Wuque always emphasized that ordinary tricks such as assassination and frame-up would never be able to defeat Wang Xian.
Only by using absolute strength to completely crush it on a battlefield with nowhere to escape can we ensure that this thousand-year scourge can be eliminated!
After that, the White Lotus Sect tried to kill Wang Xian in Mount Taiyi, but failed. This completely confirmed Wei Wuque's point of view. It must be crushed with absolute strength and Wang Xian cannot be given any chance! After that, the two began to fight.
After careful preparation, Wei Wuque first instigated the White Lotus Sect in Jimo to rebel in advance. Counties in Jiaodong responded one after another, forcing Wang Xian to lead troops eastward to quell the rebellion.
What’s more exciting about this plan is that if Wang Xian wants to march eastward to Jimo, he must pass through Qingzhou. And Qingzhou is the headquarters of the White Lotus Sect. Due to emotional and rational reasons, it is impossible for Tang Tiande and Buddha Mother to let Wang Xian pass, otherwise who would
Do you still regard them as leaders? So the powerful Qingzhou White Lotus Sect had no choice but to be dragged off the battlefield! This is a conspiracy. You know that you are being led by others to do this, but you can choose a hundred times. You
You still have to obediently give your nose to others.
However, the White Lotus Sect in Qingzhou has not yet officially launched an uprising. Although they have been secretly recruiting troops, the combined strength of all the churches is only four to five thousand. Even if they raise the flag of righteousness and the Buddha Mother ascends to the heights and shouts, how many troops can be summoned in one moment?
, are all unknown. Facing the menacing imperial army of 20,000, Tang Tiande could not help but feel guilty.
At this time, Zhu Zhantan arrived at the right time and told Tang Tiande that he had a winning strategy, because the king of Han had a trump card that would kill him - 20,000 Shandong troops led by Wang Xian and Guo Yi. More than a hundred officers from more than a hundred households had already secretly pledged allegiance to the king of Han.
!In the garrison army that implements the world military system, all soldiers have been soldiers for generations, their superiors are the elders of their subordinates, and hundreds of families are the sons-in-law of thousands of families. They are very closely connected with each other. Therefore, lower-level soldiers have complete unconditional trust in the middle- and upper-level officers, and they do not trust them at all.
He would pay attention to the airborne imperial envoys from the Marquis... After hearing Zhu Zhantan's words, Tang Tiande had no other choice but to cooperate with him.
According to the plan formulated by Wei Wuque, the White Lotus Sect captured Qingzhou City before the counter-rebellion troops led by Wang Xian and Guo Yisuo arrived in Qingzhou. Qingzhou is an important town in Shandong after Jinan, and Wang Xian and Guo Yi must save it. When the two
If they lead their army to rescue them, the White Lotus Sect will abandon Qingzhou and lead the imperial army into the Yidu Mountains. Once the army is introduced into the Hulu Valley, the White Lotus Sect will cut holes in it, trap them in the valley and 'annihilate' them!
But in fact, both sides are just pretending, and the real killing scene is in the Hulu Valley. The troops loyal to the King of Han will suddenly mutiny and kill Wang Xian and Guo Yi! The reason why this mutiny was chosen in the Hulu Valley is to prevent Wang Xian from being killed.
He escaped under the protection of Jin Yiwei! By then, 20,000 troops would surround the gourd mouth with copper and iron walls, and Wang Xian would not be able to fly out even if he put on his wings!
