The old man with a high crown walked from the underground, spent the night turning around Duzhou, and returned to the palace platform near the upper level. As soon as he arrived here, he immediately felt the rumbling vibration from above, which was obviously an attack by Qingyang Military Mansion.
Still continuing.
He summoned a guard named Gao who was responsible for supervising all matters here and asked, "What's the situation?"
Gao Hujun looked a little nervous and said: "Reporting to the Prime Minister, our top layer has collapsed, and the second layer seems to be unable to hold on for much longer. If the second layer is broken through, then we will have to face the Qingyang Military Mansion.
The troops are at war." He said, clasping his fists, "I beg the Prime Minister to evacuate the fourth floor as soon as possible!"
At this time, there was an earth-shattering explosion from the top. Everyone shook their bodies involuntarily, and sand and gravel fell down from above.
The expressions of everyone present changed, because at this moment, the rumbling sound outside suddenly became much louder, which indicated that the outermost periphery of the second layer had probably been breached.
One of the attendants looked at the old man with a high crown anxiously and said: "Prime Minister..."
The old man with a high crown was very calm. He stood still and said, "Why are you panicking? Did you do what I told you before?"
Seeing him like this, Gao Hujun admired him in his heart and said: "We have made arrangements for returning to the Prime Minister's Kingdom, and all the mysterious soldiers have been buried."
The old man with a high crown turned his head and ordered to a close guard: "Take a thousand armored soldiers to the Fuguo Mansion and invite Youfuguo here. Also, bring in the Master Chen and Master Zhao from the Tianji Academy.
, I will wait for them here."
The trusted guard hesitated for a moment, looked up at him and said, "Xiangguo, what if Zuo Fuguo and the two master craftsmen don't want to?"
The old man Gao Guan said expressionlessly: "I just want you to invite them here. It doesn't matter whether they live or die."
The trusted guard understood immediately, bowed and clasped his fists, and said with a cold expression: "I understand."
After the old man Gao Guan left, he asked Gao Hujun: "How many more people do we have?"
Gao Hujun said: "We still have 130,000 soldiers in our hands, but now people's hearts are in turmoil, and many people secretly collude with Qingyang Military Mansion. The only people under our control can really control are 20,000 elite soldiers, but Qingyang Military Mansion attaches great importance to itself.
The lives of the soldiers, it seems that they would rather use mysterious soldiers to clear the way than send soldiers to compete with me for important territory."
At this time, the sound above suddenly stopped, but everyone knew that this was not a sign that the Qingyang fleet had stopped attacking, but a brief pause when the next round of greater bombardment was about to come.
The old man Gao Guan said: "Gao Hujun, you don't have to wait here with me anymore. Go and do what you should do."
Gao Hujun nodded vigorously, clasped his fists and said, "Then I'm leaving, Prime Minister, take care!" After saying that, he took a few steps back, turned around and left.
After the old man Gao Guan waited for about half a summer, the trusted guard who was sent came back and said hurriedly: "Xiangguo, there is no one in the palace of Youfu. We found a man in the back garden of the palace.
Judging from the traces at the entrance and exit, people have been walking for at least three days."
The old man with a high crown was startled, and then sneered: "Okay, everyone wants to run away." He asked again: "What about the Zhiyuan? What about the Zhiyuan?"
The trusted guard sighed and said: "When we arrived, everyone at Zhiyuan from top to bottom had committed suicide and died for the country. The Prime Minister, the masters and craftsmen of Zhiyuan are still loyal to Shuangzhou and the Prime Minister."
The old man with a high crown said expressionlessly: "What is loyalty? How could these masters and craftsmen have any respect for Shuangzhou and Zhengguo in their hearts? If there is no mistake, those corpses should be just some substitutes for the Creator."
Hearing this, everyone was speechless.
At this moment, an attendant hurried in from outside, looking panicked and saying: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, something serious has happened."
The old man with a high crown was already in a calm mood at this moment, and said: "Tell me, what is it about?"
The attendant said in a panic: "Gao Hujun, it's Gao Hujun. After he left just now, he took all his soldiers to seek refuge with the Qingyang Military Mansion!"
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.
The old man Gao Guan had received enough bad news today, but he didn't react at all for a moment and seemed to be numb.
The attendant said urgently: "Prime Minister, Gao Hujun knows all the truths and falsehoods on the third floor, and also knows that Prime Minister is here. Prime Minister, please leave quickly."
The old man with a high crown said coldly: "At least he still has some friendship, so he didn't capture me and just sacrifice it to me."
He looked at everyone present and said, "What about you? Do you want to leave? If you want to leave, you can leave. I won't stop you."
All the guards and attendants here looked at each other and bowed: "We are all willing to follow the Prime Minister!"
The old man Gaoguan looked at everyone, and finally said in a deep voice: "Okay, now Duzhou can no longer be defended, so we have to give up. You can gather people and follow me to evacuate this place," he looked outside and said in a deep voice.
: "As long as the melt pool is still there, we will always return one day."
After the Qingyang Fleet broke through several layers of ground barriers, it continued to bombard the Duzhou Prefecture for several days.
Not only were all the outer barriers of Duzhou destroyed, but the inner barriers were also blasted with thousands of holes, leaving no complete boundary left.
Then more than 300,000 soldiers and countless creatures rushed underground.
However, although most of the upper-class people in Duzhou have lost their will to resist and surrendered one after another, there are still some people in the middle and lower classes who refuse to give up and are still resisting tenaciously.
But these people now belong to a minority, and they quickly disappeared like waves under the superior strength of Qingyang Military Mansion.
At this time, a piece of news came from Qingyang from the Shuangzhou soldiers who had returned from defection, saying that there was a place on the third floor below Duzhou that was the residence of Shuangzhou Zhengguo.
Everyone in the army attaches great importance to this person. Cao Duzhao will try his best to capture this person alive if possible. If this person can be controlled, not only will there be no more secrets in Shuangzhou, but the treatment of Shuangzhou people will also be
It will be much more convenient and simpler.
While the army of the military government was rapidly advancing underground, Zhang Yu arrived at the southwest corner of Duzhou at this moment.
This was originally a large garden hall, but now due to the bombing of the Xuan soldiers, only a piece of collapsed ruins is left. However, because it is in a remote corner and has no value in itself, a part of it remains.
As soon as his eyes fell, many debris seemed to be lifted up by an invisible force and slowly floated to the sky. After a long time, a metal box floated over from inside, and he reached out and grabbed it.
After examining it for a moment, he opened it and found that there were more than a hundred beads the size of rice grains inside, with erratic lightning wrapped around them. The sound of thunder could also be vaguely heard. This thing gave him a faint sense of danger.
Feel.
After taking a few glances, he felt something. He moved his fingers, closed the lid with a snap, and looked into the sky.
There was a ray of light floating in the sky, and a metal giant landed in front of him. Then the outer armor on his body retreated, and the person revealed inside was an armored sergeant he had seen beside Cao Du.
The sergeant hugged his fist and said: "Zhang Xuanzheng, we have found the residence of Shuangzhou Zhengguo. Lieutenant Zhan has led his people there at the moment. It's just that there are rumors that Zhengguo is very mysterious, and General Cao is afraid of an accident."
, so I would like to invite Zhang Xuanzheng to come with us."
He paused for a moment and then whispered: "The general said that he has sent people there as well. Please rest assured that Zhang Xuanzheng will be informed as soon as there is any news."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "I understand."
The sergeant showed that he was on military duty, and after another salute, he flew away again.
Zhang Yu looked at the bright lights flashing across the sky. He put the box into the purple star bag, then took up the escape light and flew south.
He had already learned the location of the Zhengguo mansion before he came out, so he came back very quickly. After only half a moment, he landed in front of a huge palace square.
This palace is majestic and solid. Even after being destroyed by Xuan soldiers, it still stands. However, the dragon pillars in front of the palace and various pedestals guarding the creations have been destroyed. At this moment, soldiers are constantly pouring in.
Going in, there were bursts of banging and popping sounds inside, and it was obvious that a fierce battle was still going on.
His figure was slightly suspended from the ground, and then he quickly floated inwards, quickly passing through one grand palace after another. The broken bodies of the jade giants could be seen everywhere on the ground.
As the sounds of fierce fighting inside became clearer and louder, he finally came to a hall carved with huge frost flowers.
In front of the main hall is a corridor with a row of tall columns, and above it are tall sculptures on both sides, all of which are strange creatures that have never been seen before.
What surprised him was that there was a faint flow of heat in these statues. Although it was not strong, it did exist.
He stood there motionless, and the heat flow converged on him. Generally speaking, when he absorbed things from a distance, there would be no damage. However, these statues were different. After the heat flow above them dissipated, they would not be damaged.
Each one collapsed and fell to the ground on both sides.
At this time, he suddenly heard bursts of cheers coming from inside the hall, and the roar stopped. He couldn't help but look at it. After a long time, he saw a man in gorgeous clothes being beaten by a man.
The armored sergeants escorted him out.
This man is in his forties, tall, with a handsome face and clear outlines. He is wearing a crown that symbolizes royal power and a gold and white high-collar Frost Flower King uniform. He is being escorted away at this moment, but his expression still reveals
A majestic look.
Zhang Yu stood under the corridor, watching the group of people coming, and asked a sergeant in front: "Who is this?"
When the sergeant saw it was him, he stopped hurriedly, clasped his fists, and said excitedly: "Report to Xuanzheng, this person is Shuangzhou Zhengguo."
Zhang Yu took a deep look at the man, said nothing, turned around and walked out, and came to the outside. He looked at the ruins and fell into thinking.
At this moment, a long sword cry was heard.
He raised his eyes and saw a ray of light falling from the sky, crashing onto a broken pedestal in front of him, and He Jun appeared with two swords on his back.
He stood on it and looked at Zhang Yu, slapped his head and said: "Zhang Xuanzheng, Duzhou has been defeated. Can you and I fulfill our promise to fight this time?"
