Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 833
[Chapter 831: Soldiers are expensive and quick]
Luzhou gathers.
Gu family.
“I heard that the heavenly soldiers from the imperial court are coming, and Taoist Master Xu Lingzi is afraid that he will be killed!”
Gu Yue looked at the sky, feeling a little sad.
The psychology of these literati is very strange. When they meet an officer, they dare to insult and ridicule them wantonly, calling them “Qiu Ba”. However, when they encounter rebels, they often have an inexplicable sense of trust in the “celestial soldiers” of the court, thinking that they can win!
“Alas… It’s such a pity Xu Lingzi. With his Taoist skills, as long as he abides by his duties, he will be a guest no matter where he goes.”
Gu Juren drank tea with a bit of pity: “Why do you have to rebel? I Son, remember… the most important thing for a person is duty!”
“Son, remember.” Gu Yue bowed to the lesson and asked in a low voice, “Is this a traitor really impossible?”
After all, he is not a fool. I also saw a bit of chaos.
“No matter what, at least this one won’t succeed… Why? Although Jiangbei is in chaos, Jiangnan is still peaceful. People are determined that those who start the chaos will be hostile!”
Gu Juren said slowly.
Gu Yue was startled and suddenly realized that Jiangnan was an important area for food and taxation for the imperial court. How could chaos be allowed?
A rebel who raises his flag and rebels will inevitably be suppressed and strangled by the imperial court. This is just to clear the way for the true king later.
“Alas…”
I didn’t know what I was feeling at this time, so I could only sigh quietly.
Suddenly, a close servant ran in and said, “Master, Master… it’s not good.”
“Do you still understand the rules?” When Gu Yue saw this scene, she was about to scold him, but she heard Gu Juren say: “Come in and talk! “
This is a close family member of the Gu family. They were sent out by Gu Juren to find out the news early. At this time, he calmed down and said: “I can see clearly. On the small plain outside, the imperial army was defeated… The rebel forces have increased greatly. The number of people increased by at least several thousand!”
“What?”
Gu Juren and Gu Yue both turned pale.
After a long time, Gu Jucai said in a dry voice: “You have done a good job in this matter. Go to the accounting office and get five taels of silver. Go ahead!”
When the servant left, Gu Yue exclaimed: “Fengxiang Army was defeated. ?”
“If Fengxiang’s army is defeated, what force will Jiangzhou Prefecture have? I’m afraid the whole government will be corrupted…”
Gu Juren also sighed: “Although the imperial army will arrive, before that, the people of Jiangnan will be in trouble… This world , I’m afraid there’s going to be chaos!”
…
Inspecting the Yamen.
Xiao Zi and Xiao Liang were brought to the hall, their faces full of anxiety.
Xiao Zi clutched her nephew’s clothes tightly, her face pale. After all, she was only a sixteen-year-old girl.
‘No matter what, I must keep my brother’s last bit of flesh and blood…’
She looked at her nephew with determination in her eyes.
At this time, Aaron and Du Longzi walked in together.
When Aaron saw Xiao Liang, he waved: “Good boy, come here!”
Although Du Longzi had a troubled face, he nodded and signaled his aunt and nephew to follow the instructions and not to resist.
Xiao Liang looked at his aunt, gritted his teeth, and came to Aaron.
“Sure enough, he has some courage and roots… Is this dragon energy?”
Aaron stroked Xiao Liang’s little head, secretly opened his spiritual vision, and saw a little cyan light on the other person’s body, which was consistent with the earth, and he knew immediately , this is a bit of dragon energy inherited from the anti-thief Xiao Yang.
‘This dragon’s energy is strong and awe-inspiring. At this time, it is united with the earth. After offering sacrifices to the sky, it will formally communicate with the Tianzhu. It will be watched by the will of heaven and be influenced by heaven and man! ‘
‘The legal net in this world is really tight. If you kill him and turn him into a puppet, the dragon energy will be gone… Maybe you can use illusion to hide it from the Taoist, but you can’t hide it from this world! ‘
‘Before I really overthrow the three religions and change my life, I still have to keep a low profile… and don’t let God pay too much attention to me. ‘
‘And… there are too many people in the world who have been brainwashed by dragon energy. Even internally, a target needs to be set up to attract opposition. ‘
As soon as he thought about this, Aaron laughed: “Xiao Liang… do you want to be the emperor?”
As soon as he said this, Xiao Zi’s expression changed: “Taoist Master… my nephew and I just want to remain anonymous and live a stable life. I don’t want anything!”
Xiao Liang looked at his aunt and immediately shook his head: “Liang’er doesn’t want to!”
“Very good, I happily decided that you will be the leader of our force…”
Aaron laughed: “Don’t be busy now. When Jiangzhou Prefecture is captured, you will immediately go to the altar to worship heaven, build the Liang Kingdom, and be called the King of Liang!” He
immediately clapped his hands and asked two maids who didn’t know which big family offered them to bring them together. Take him down and comfort him.
“This…”
Du Longzi watched Aaron’s operation the whole time, and the confusion on his face became more serious: “Although fellow Taoist is willing to support Qianlong’s son, the old Taoist is very grateful… but by doing this, aren’t you afraid of causing serious trouble in the future?”
Once he recognizes the master, his energy will be involved.
Moreover, children will always grow up, and Aaron has given the most important righteousness!
As time goes by, there will always be some people who move closer to Xiao Liang and form a general trend.
By then, Aaron will be in trouble!
Everything he did today was proof of his arrogance and domineering attitude.
And which of the powerful officials in history had a good end?
Isn’t Xu Lingzi afraid of dying without a burial place?
Even if he kills the other party and becomes the emperor later, he will not be able to escape the word ‘murder’ in the history books of future generations!
——This is of course Du Longzi’s opinion!
Aaron didn’t take it seriously and laughed: “You look at it, Du Longzi… Now that our army has expanded to this point, the military rations can’t sustain it for long… You quickly go down and order people to buy military flags, and then we go to fight Jiangzhou Fucheng!”
“Only two thousand soldiers? One thousand of them just surrendered?”
Du Longzi’s eyes widened: “How about we attack the county town first?”
“How many manpower and resources are there? Fucheng!”
Aaron waved his hands and made a decision.
“Fellow Taoist…most of Fengxiang’s army comes from Fucheng…let them beat their wives, children and parents, I’m afraid they will mutiny immediately!”
Du Longzi advised earnestly.
“It doesn’t matter… you have to believe in the obedience of the soldiers.”
Aaron laughed, feeling that the general who defended the city might actually use this tactic. The scene would be so beautiful, I dare not look at it!
…
Jiangzhou Fucheng.
Fengxiang’s army was defeated, and the news came that Jiedushi Li Tie had died in battle. There was chaos all over the place.
military camp.
Chen Zitong fled all the way and gathered the defeated troops. In the end, there were more than 500 people, and the strength of the troops did not decrease but increased.
When he came to the army at this time, he immediately summoned his confidants for a secret discussion.
He didn’t have many confidants. Apart from a few captains who had a chance to escape, he only had two staff.
One of them used to follow his father, and later he followed himself. His surname was Jiang, his name was Tui, he was a child born in China, and he was in his forties.
The other person is Fan Jin, who is only in his twenties. Although he is young, he is full of wisdom.
“…That’s the situation. This is a rare opportunity. I want to give it a try.”
Chen Zitong looked at his men with dark eyes.
One of the team members with the most arrogant temperament shouted: “Ying Zheng, you lead us out of the pile of dead people. We all support you to become the commander… If others dare to come, we dare to make trouble!”
Chen Zitong smiled and nodded, But in my heart I disagreed.
Now that the city is not in chaos and the imperial court still has authority, the best option is to engage in violence.
He turned to look at the other team leader: “Tang Xun, what do you think?”
Tang Xun was in his thirties, when a man was most young and powerful, with a resolute face and a calm look, and he was good at training soldiers.
At this time, he muttered: “The camp is… I believe that the city seems to be in danger at this time. Although our army was defeated in the first battle that day, the enemy also suffered a lot, at least half of it… even if they gathered the defeated troops afterwards. , recruiting manpower also takes time to train… Moreover, there is a nearby county town that can act as a buffer. The chaos will not reach us for a while, but it happens to be the time when the adults gain military power! The troubled times are coming, so a man should carry the three-foot sword and try it! “Heroes in the world!”
“Tang Xun, these words of yours have won my heart. How should they be?” Chen Zitong’s eyes lit up.
“This is easy…”
Fan Jin said with a smile: “We know that Fucheng is as stable as Mount Tai, but the prefect may not know… At this time, Fucheng is shocked three times a day, and the remaining soldiers of Fengxiang Army dare not fight… Your Excellency must resolutely submit a letter to ask for a fight at this time! Then! Please get an official document from your boss and let him take control of the Fengxiang Army. “
Quan means temporary.”
Although he is a temporary chief, over time it will become real.
Jiang Tui also clapped his hands: “This plan is very clever… Li Tie died in the battle, the senior military attachés suffered heavy casualties, and the rest did not dare to fight. If you stand up now, you will surely be favored by the top! Even if there are still people who want to fight for military power, We can also secretly remove him!”
Chen Zitong’s eyes grew brighter as he thought about it, and when he looked at Tang Xun, he saw that he was an extraordinary warrior. Fan Jin was dressed in Tsing Yi, dressed as a scholar, but he had the appearance of a distinguished scholar.
If you have such support from the civil and military circles, why worry about failing to achieve great things? He
immediately gritted his teeth and punched the table: “Okay… let’s do it this way. All my family’s money can be spent on this!”
He had already vaguely realized that in today’s world, rebellions are everywhere, and in troubled times, military power It’s important!
As long as the military power of Fengxiang Army is captured, what does the rest of the trivial wealth mean?
…
a few days later.
Wuxiao sect.
Cangsong and his senior brother had just rushed back when they felt something was wrong!
In the spiritual eyes, the land of the Immortal Family that was originally shrouded in mist now seemed to be filled with black mist!
“Is this… backlash and sin?”
Cangsong stretched out his finger, picked up a trace, and then retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted. He looked at the red mark on his finger, his eyes full of fear.
Since the sect has invested in Qianlong, but now there is such a situation, it is obvious that Qianlong is not looking good!
But he was turning over and over in his mind, just confused.
It was obvious that the Qianlong chosen had good qualifications, character, and ancestors. He also specially ordered the dragon’s lair and sent the seeds of civil servants and generals to him.
The previous development was quite smooth.
Why is he suddenly about to lose?
This is simply incomprehensible, just like the defeat of three thousand Fengxiang troops by six hundred people. It is as confusing as it is.
The two came to the door and saw several Taoist boys passing by in a hurry. The atmosphere was very solemn.
Cangsong and his senior brother came to a hall and saluted: “Cangsong, please see the real person!”
“Come in!”
The real person’s voice came, seeming to be a little tired.
Cangsong and his senior brother hurried in and saw the real person and a group of elders there, all looking at a bronze mirror in mid-air.
This bronze mirror is simple in shape, with animal patterns around it, but in the middle is a circle of water waves.
At this time, the water waves were faint, revealing an extraordinary atmosphere, reflecting the vast land, with dragons and snakes lurking.
“This is our sect’s most precious treasure – the Wangchuan Mirror, which can see the aura of a place.”
The real person said calmly: “Qianlong was defeated but did not die. Instead, he was able to seize the power of Fengxiang’s army. It should be considered a success… But this backlash and sin It’s not fake, obviously things have changed!”
Cangsong took a closer look and saw a small black snake vaguely appearing in the ground, and the energy on his body was vaguely connected to his own, and he immediately knew that this must be the case. It’s Chen Zitong.
“The Dragon Qi is already strong, and there are civil servants and generals guarding it. They are absorbing the military Qi. They are obviously slowly wooing and eroding the military power of Fengxiang Army… This is all quite right, but why does it make me feel weak?”
“No… This is not me. , but a foreign enemy!”
Cangsong suddenly realized, with this thought, another place appeared in the Wangchuan Mirror.
There was a black and red evil spirit rising into the sky, with a little blue floating in it.
The cyan color is really too subtle, but it is still there after all, faintly transformed into one thing, neither a dragon nor a snake, as thin as a hair… and a bit like an earthworm.
At this time, he was very arrogant and actually attacked the black snake’s luck!
“Ah!”
Cangsong was so frightened that he screamed, dripping with cold sweat: “The real person… this is it?”
“The method of Zhulong Dao to find the dragon and point its acupoints has some secrets after all. Xiao Yang, who was chosen by the Poison Dragon Son, is indeed pregnant. Dragon Qi… The last time Qianlong defeated his Qi, although most of it was plundered, some of it was inherited by his son.” The real person sighed: “Looking at this situation… it must be that Poison Dragon Son and Xu Lingzi have reached an agreement to support each other. Xiao Yang’s son turned out to be the weather!”
“Xiao Yang’s Dragon Qi and Qianlong’s Dragon Qi have a deadly feud, and there is bound to be a conflict… And looking at this Qi, I’m afraid the Jiangzhou Prefecture war is just around the corner, and it’s even quite detrimental to Qianlong. …How is this possible?”
Another elder also said: “Luzhouji is just a small town, how many soldiers can it raise? Even if Xu Lingzi searched the mountains and wanted bandits, he could only raise six. Hundreds, no matter how much, it is impossible… Even if you win the first battle by chance, why can you continue to fight again? “
“It’s hard to explain, the truth is unclear… It’s just that we have to make an early decision, whether to fully support Qianlong or to cut off from Qianlong? “
As the real man was talking, suddenly there was a bolt of thunder in the sky.
Thunder Lord kills!
All of a sudden, all the Taoists in the audience looked pale and despairing: “God’s punishment is backlash? Why is it coming so fast?”
…
At the same time.
Jiangzhou Fucheng.
“The camp is in full swing. The thieves are besieging the city. The magistrate orders you to quickly bring troops to the city gate to support!”
Chen Zitong had just sent a messenger with letters and bribes to make connections, and his own soldiers came to report.
He suddenly staggered and was extremely shocked: “Impossible!” He
immediately led his entire battalion up the city wall, and saw a military formation approaching in the darkness outside.
His army was neatly organized and motionless as a mountain. It was the demon army that defeated him that day!
But at this time, many of these soldiers were still wearing Dasong’s military uniforms, but they just changed their flags and had the word “Liang”!
The generals at the head of the city couldn’t help but be horrified!
Chen Zitong felt as if his bones had been taken away, and he almost collapsed on the city wall: “What a shame… why did it come so fast?!”
In just ten days, he will be able to obtain the military power of Fengxiang Army!
