Fortunately, there were many experts accompanying him this time. The emperor even asked Yang Taisui, a monk in black in the palace, to act as a guard. There were also thousands of cavalry for personal protection, as well as many martial arts experts.
It can be seen that Liyang attaches great importance to Shu. As for Shu, it is absolutely impossible for Liyang to be released to Beiliang, even if the relationship between Zhao Dun and Xu Xiao has eased.
You should know that Shu is bounded by the Western Region to the west, Beiliang to the north, Nanzhao and Xishu to the south, and Liyang to the east. It is the intersection center of all forces, and its geographical location is unique. It is almost a battleground for military strategists.
Having it means a longer depth, which is of great significance.
Zhao Xiong and his party marched westward in a mighty force. In less than half a month, they passed through the Huaihe River and arrived at the outskirts of Shu. Due to the large number of experts on this trip, they did not encounter any bandits who dared to rob them along the way.
Bandits.
In the realm of Liyang, no one dared to take action against the prince.
Soon, the team came to the Shu Road, which is said to be difficult to climb to the sky. After passing through this ten-mile-long steep mountain road, they could truly enter Yizhou, known as the Land of Abundance.
"Your Highness, ahead is the gate of hell that is said to be a gate that no one can open. Once you pass through this gate, you will enter the hinterland of Shu.
It is said that Shu is known as the Land of Abundance. It is surrounded by countless mountains on the outside and a vast basin on the inside. It is said to be able to support an army of 500,000 people.
As long as His Highness thoroughly grasps Nanzhao, the land of Shu, and manages it carefully, within a few years, he will have the capital to compete in the Central Plains, and even at the worst, he can become a free prince.
It’s really gratifying.”
Next to Zhao Xiong, a middle-aged eunuch kept flattering him. Hearing this, Zhao Xiong was also a little excited. As long as he passed through this last natural barrier, he would be able to enter Shu smoothly. From then on, he would be the king of Shu.
.
The mountains are high here and the emperor is far away. Isn’t he the one who has the final say in everything from now on? Thinking of having an army of hundreds of thousands, surrounded by beauties, and even the emperor looking at his face, I laughed out loud.
"Hahaha, that's right. After I master the Western Shu Nanzhao, not only Tai'an City, but also Beiliang and Xichu will have to look at Gu's face. March quickly, I can't wait."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Since the road was very narrow, only one carriage could be allowed to pass. Therefore, this huge team could only pass in a long queue.
Just when Zhao Xiong's carriage passed through the narrow intersection, something suddenly happened!
Countless rolling stones were seen falling from the mountain, directly cutting off the team. At the same time, countless arrows continued to fly. For a moment, screams broke out, and the originally peaceful team suddenly turned into a hell on earth.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of masked killers followed, massacring Zhao Xiong's guards. In just a dozen breaths, nearly half of the guards fell into a pool of blood.
Yang Taisui, with quick eyesight and quick hands, appeared in front of Zhao Xiong in an instant and used the power of the Great Vajra to protect him. He did not expect that someone would dare to brave the disdain of the world and intercept and kill Prince Liyang.
However, he couldn't allow him to think too much at this moment and started fighting with the man in black.
On the other side, on a mountain not far from here, white-haired Xu Fengnian looked at all this coldly. The interception and killing of Prince Liyang was exactly his handiwork, or rather Li Yishan's handiwork.
Xu Fengnian murmured to himself:
"Old Kai, you are an illegitimate son, so you must have no feelings for the third prince, right? No matter what, Beiliang cannot leave his body to anyone else."
It was related to the life and death of Beiliang's 350,000 troops. Xu Fengnian, who decided to inherit the throne of Beiliang, naturally would not be emotional. Moreover, Liyang had also assassinated him countless times. It was not polite to go back and forth. With this action, he
He will not be lenient. What's more, Yang Taisui is also one of his enemies.
The killing was going on. The guards around Zhao Xiong were all well-trained soldiers. Coupled with Yang Taisui's strong strength, the team quickly came to a stalemate.
Zhao Xiong was trembling aside. He had never seen such a scene before, and the eunuch beside him was so frightened that he peed. Seeing this, Yang Taisui said:
"Your Highness, don't panic. We have already sent out the message before. Soon, the defenders of Yizhou City will arrive. In addition, someone has already sent a message to Chen Zhibao before. Soon he will lead his troops.
Your Highness will be assured of peace of mind.
These are just ordinary masters, and they can't break the powerful Vajra of a poor monk!"
The land of Shu was still Liyang's territory, and Yang Taisui was sure that the army that the other party could mobilize must be limited.
But soon, Yang Taisui couldn't be happy anymore. Xu Fengnian, who was holding two swords and with white hair, appeared in front of him. Behind Xu Fengnian, there was a blue bird holding a split second gun, and a group of black.
Something that looks extremely eerie.
Yang Taisui exclaimed:
"As expected, it's you, Xu Fengnian, do you really dare to assassinate the current prince? Is it possible that you guys in Beiliang really want to rebel?"
Xu Fengnian didn't explain to him and went straight to kill Yang Taisui. Xu Fengnian had previously given up his whole body in Dahuangting in order to kill the fifth raccoon dog in Beimang. Now it only refers to the Mysterious Realm, but there is a blue bird ghost Xu Ying.
help.
In addition, Yang Taisui has always felt guilty about Xu Xiao these years, and he did not kill Xu Fengnian, but only tried his best to protect Zhao Xiong Zhouquan.
Under this situation, Xu Fengnian also firmly had the upper hand.
On the other side, the Yizhou army, which received the distress signal, also encountered obstacles on its way to rescue. It was blocked by a blind female violinist. This female violinist was also extremely terrifying. She was held back with a guqin.
thousands of troops.
The leader of the army also felt bad when he saw this situation, so he planned to divide his troops into two groups to rescue him. If the prince died in his territory, he would be beheaded.
After finally gathering another two thousand troops, they were once again stopped by a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man said to himself:
"We have been planning for many years just to let him take over Xishu. How can we let you wait this time?"
I saw the middle-aged man waving his sleeves lightly, and the huge power of heaven and earth swept in. After a moment, the two thousand Yizhou defenders were overturned. The middle-aged man used the methods of the Confucian sage!
At the same time, Chen Zhibao, who was holding a stick of plum wine, also came from the north of Shu with his close followers. Chen Zhibao did not bring many followers on this trip, only more than a hundred riders, all of whom were diehards brought from Beiliang.
.
The team is very fast, and it won't take long to arrive at the Gate of Hell.
However, the team soon encountered an obstacle. In front of the cavalry, hundreds of light cavalry blocked the front. The leader was Xu Weixiong, who was dressed in armor and had a heroic appearance.
You may have some doubts about the place, but I have seen the map of Snow World.
