Chapter 500: Strong takeover (5k)
All changes are without warning.
This "peace talk" seems to have gone out of control irreversibly from the moment Xu Zudi stepped into this camp.
According to many people's expectations, the arrival of the prince will be a scene of both kindness and power and intrigue.
But Xu Zudi chose the simplest and most brutal one from many negotiation plans.
This made Zhao Duan lose the intention of watching the show, indirectly and inquire about it: "...take my move."
A ray of glow wrapped around the folding fan, and this shot seemed ordinary, but after Zhao Duan secretly stepped into the world, the extremely mellow qi quietly pressed into the fan bone. "Be careful, Prince!"
No surprise, the old man in gray who was standing behind Xu Zudi suddenly changed his face, and his body almost pulled out a afterimage.
In a flash, he pushed His Royal Highness away with his right hand, raised his left arm that was hanging over his knees, and "clipped" his two iron bars towards the folding fan.
Last autumn, Zhao Duan threw a flying knife at Xu Zudi in the capital in the Divine Chapter Realm, but was easily resisted by the old man in gray robe.
Now, more than half a year has passed, and a similar scene has happened again, but this time, the calm face of the old man in the gray robe suddenly changed drastically when he touched the folding fan.
As if he was subjected to an electric shock, the old man's left arm cuff suddenly tightened and fell on his flesh with a "pop". Then, the flesh of his whole arm trembled violently, and drops of red blood oozed out of his pores.
"Not good——"
After many years of entering the Divine Chapter, the old man in the gray robe who worked in the Heng Palace suddenly turned pale and screamed suddenly. His whole arm was "clicked" and was broken by the folding fan. The folding fan was not exhausted, and it pierced the old man's shoulder like an arrow.
The next moment, in full view of everyone, the escort of the royal palace with extraordinary martial arts cultivation was still hit by a siege hammer, his feet plowed the ground, like a strong wind blowing through fallen leaves, and flew backwards, hitting another prince's entourage.
The two of them fell to the ground with their horses on their backs and fell to the ground. The folding fan was like a steel nail, almost nailing the old man to the ground!
The blood blew out and dyed her shoulders red.
Silent.
Not only the prince, but even the generals of the Five Military Barracks headed by Yuan Feng suddenly narrowed their pupils and looked at Zhao Duan in horror.
They knew that Zhao Duan had gone further in martial arts, but they did not expect that the gap between the two sides would be so huge.
Zhao Duan just shook his head and felt disappointed. Compared with the knife he used when the Shenlong Temple was destroyed, he thought to himself: Not as good as an Arhat.
"You... dare you to offend?!"
Xu Zudi was stunned for a moment, staring at the "deputy general" who had never been seen by him from beginning to end. He first burst into fear and anger in his eyes, and then he was furious, with a harsh look on his face, but he was also scared to death:
"Yuan Feng! Do you want to die?"
He turned his eyes and locked in Commander Yuan.
In his opinion, this arrangement was inseparable from Yuan Feng. As for why his guard was so "weak" and vulnerable, he couldn't figure it out for a moment in panic.
Yuan Feng's scalp was numb when questioned, which was a little different from the "fake surrender" he expected. He couldn't help but turn his head and look over and search the catalogue.
Zhao Duan was slow and walked out, and suddenly kicked Xu Zudi over to the ground without any warning.
He pressed his right hand on the back of the chair on the ground, picked up the seat, turned 180 degrees, and sat down, his face turned cold, and looked down from a high place: "It seems you haven't figured out the situation yet." Xu Zudi was caught off guard and was kicked down like a wild dog. His nose and face were swollen. The last entourage behind him was about to step forward, but he was punched by a general in the fifth military camp.
"You...who are you? What are you going to do?" Xu Zudi knelt on the ground, looking nervous, and looked at Yuan Feng again: "This prince is a royal family. Do you want to rebel..."
"Palm!" Zhao Duan's tone was cold.
Everyone hesitated, and the general who had punched before took the lead, swung his palm-shaped hand, and thrust hard with a "pop".
The army man's hands were extremely powerful, and the fine skin and tender prince was beaten to almost turn around in place, his cheeks were swollen and blood was shot.
The general cursed, "Bah, you don't like this guy, you, have long been disliked, and you dare to talk to Lord Zhao like this?"
Xu Zudi's head was buzzing, but he still caught the keyword "Lord Zhao". His heart suddenly thumped, and he was finally willing to turn his attention to the "mediocre deputy general" sitting in front of him.
At this moment, Zhao Duan wiped his right hand on his face, revealing his true face, and said with a smile: "Xu Zudi, do you still recognize me?" Zhao Duan!
Xu Zudiru was struck by lightning, her face was pale and faded with naked eyes, and she shouted: "Impossible! How could you still be alive, here?"
Zhao Duan smiled without any warmth: "Are you surprised or surprised? I wanted to play with you and get information, but you actually delivered it to the door in person, so there is no need to work hard." Xu Zudi's eyes showed a strong fear, and he used both hands and feet, and stepped back: "What do you want to do? This prince is a royal family, who dares to move..."
Yuan Feng suddenly stood up, and the national-faced commander's voice was deep:
"Your Majesty has returned to the capital. Lord Zhao is ordered to fight against rebellion today. Xu Zudi, do you think that an identity can protect you?"
What? The Queen is back? when? !
Xu Zudi burst into cold sweats. He wanted to question, but when he met Zhao Duan's cold gaze, he couldn't say anything in his throat.
He changed his expression and finally realized that he was in danger. "This prince... no, I... Brother Zhao, this matter is a misunderstanding..." Xu Zudi's face changed, and he could bend and stretch, and he even smiled.
"Oh? Is it a misunderstanding?" Zhao Duan hugged his golden sword, crossed his legs, sat in the seat, groping for the scabbard inlaid with five-color gems. "Yes, yes, it's a misunderstanding, I can explain it." Xu Zudi said, and wanted to get up. "Did I let you get up?" Zhao Duan was too lazy to look at him, but just focused on rubbing the scabbard.
Xu Zudi froze, but still lowered in front of everyone, and squeezed out a smile: "This matter, this matter..."
Zhao Duan interrupted him and said slowly:
"I am not a person who is ungrateful. As you said, I am a relative of Your Majesty. Even if I make a mistake, I should not be too humiliated." "Yes, yes." Xu Zudi nodded quickly. He knew too much about Zhao Duan, a person who was vindictive. Even if he scolded Zhao Gou in his heart, the situation was stronger than others, and he dared not anger the other party. "Besides," Zhao Duan suddenly stopped his fingers and raised his smile: "If Your Majesty knew that I was receiving relatives like this, it would be inappropriate."
Suddenly, he pulled his sword out of the sheath with a clang!
The sharp sword immediately shone in the tent, a snow-white light shining across the faces of the generals.
Xu Zudi shrank his neck so much that he shook his thighs, and instinctively lowered his head, but he didn't wait for the sword to come. "Let's do it, let's play a game," Zhao Duan waved his hand and ordered someone to take a steaming sweet potato from the stove and pierce it with the tip of a knife.
Zhao Duan leaned forward, held the hilt of the knife in his right hand, and handed the sweet potatoes inserted at the tip of the knife to the prince: "Raise your head, use your mouth, eat this, and I will not cure your guilt that you have been disrespectful just now. How about it?"
Xu Zudi raised his head and stared blankly at the tip of the knife hanging in front of his lips, and the hot sweet potatoes, his complexion was gloomy and gloomy.
Revenge! This is naked revenge!
The scene in front of him is so similar to the scene where he taught Mrs. Xiao to bite an apple in the capital?
But at that time, he just taught Zhao Duan to throw away the flying knife and perform acrobatics for him to appreciate.
Now, Zhao Duan uses his method of humiliating the slutty woman of the Xiao family to him.
This exceeded Xu Zudi's tolerance limit.
He suddenly turned his face and stared at Zhao Duan like a wolf, and stood up: "I'm fighting with you!"
"Pu!"
As soon as he stood up, he was kicked hard at the knee by the general behind him. With a slight cracking of bones, Xu Zudi, who was pampered, fell to the ground.
Zhao Duan was bored and stabbed the sword into the ground, waved his hand and said, "Please take your prince down and torture him severely. I want to know some valuable information in the rebel army of King Heng." At this point, Yuan Feng changed his color slightly: "Mr. Zhao, this..."
He wanted to say, this is different from the promised one, how could he surrender like this?
What about the promised steady? To directly punish the prince is tantamount to forcing King Heng to start a war immediately. It is far less than taking the prince as a hostage and winning more negotiation space... This is what the generals of the five military camps think.
"No need to say it. As I said, you are too conservative in fighting. By the way, let this bullshit prince's entourage be released and go back to report the message. Then he told King Heng that I would give him half an hour. If I don't surrender within half an hour, the Qingzhou rebels will be destroyed today." Zhao Duan stood up with a knife, and his domineering arrogance was leaked.
At this time, Xu Zudi, who was dragged out of the tent, shouted wildly and cursed: "Zhao Duan! You are a dog from my Xu family! Do you dare to touch me? Outside, my Qingzhou army will kill you all today..."
Hey, how do you know that I am Zhenbao's licking dog? Zhao Duan is invincible when he is so humble. He does not mind at all, and laughs without being angry:
"The two armies are facing each other? I can't ask for anything."
Xu Zudi was taken away. The camp was in a strange atmosphere.
Yuan Feng couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Zhao, I hope you can think about it again. The Qingzhou rebels are far from being weak as expected. The army has hidden "evil chariots" in it, but it is extremely difficult to collide with the military formation. Moreover, the morale in the camp has fallen and the war has started rashly, for fear that there is more danger."
Whether the other generals had previously advocated retreat as advance or took the initiative to attack, they all spoke up on the united front and persuaded Zhao Duan to take back Cheng's life.
Smursed in my heart: A layman guides an expert!
I thought that King Yan of Zhao was a powerful reinforcement, but now it seems that he had made a mistake in his previous judgment. He was clearly a court bureaucrat who had never fought a war, but was confused and liked to command blindly in front of the formation.
They have seen too many such bureaucrats and hate them deeply.
Knowing that such pig teammates who command randomly are often more deadly than their enemies.
Yuan Feng took a deep breath, and a decisive look appeared on his face: "Mr. Zhao, we thank you for coming to help, but the fifth military camp is Yuan's subordinate. If Lord insists on doing this, please forgive Yuan for being unable to cooperate!"
The general is outside, and the military orders are not accepted!
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
As the commander, Yuan Feng's rank is the same as Zhao Duan. Considering that Shao Bao is a false title, Yuan Feng's real power is greater.
This will make you feel a little angry and have a tough attitude.
Zhao Duan glanced at the group of comrades and said lightly: "Commander Yuan may not understand something. I came to fight against the thieves with the order. This front will naturally be fully taken over by my Shenji Camp."
Hula—
The generals of the Shenji Camp, including Shi Meng, Chen Gui, and Tang Ping, who were hiding outside, stepped into the tent and bowed their hands and fists:
"Sir, the Shenji Camp is ready and can fight at any time!"
The faces of Yuan Feng and others changed, and they realized that they and others were undermined.
"By the way," Zhao Duan didn't wait for them to reply, staring at everyone with a smile: "Five military camps have three battles and three defeats. I am ordered to supervise the front line. Although I trust you, people's hearts are separated from the belly, and it is related to the battle between the two armies. Don't be careless. Who knows, is there anyone among you who has secretly colluded with the enemy?
Next, you can follow me in the tent to watch the battle. If someone tries to leave, don't blame me for showing mercy!"
After a pause, Zhao Duan leaned on a knife and said in a quiet tone: "Who agrees? Who opposes?"
The hearts of Yuan Feng and others sank, and no one dares to refute them anymore.
…
…
…
Qingzhou Army, in the big tent.
"Ba!" His appearance is quite similar to Xu Zudi. Although he was over 50 years old, he was very young. He slapped the table with his jade ring's hand, his face gloomy.
Anger thunder gathered between my eyebrows, but if I observe carefully, I will notice a trace of uncontrollable panic and fear deep in the pupils of the angry prince! "Zhao Duan!" King Heng's chest was fluctuating violently, panting like a cow, and he raised his head and swept fiercely at the "officials" in the tent.
Just just now, a follower who was deliberately released back captured the prince and Zhao Duan brought him there, and he handed it to the Qingzhou military camp.
Immediately, the Qingzhou generals who had already relaxed and were ready to celebrate the commendation were all shocked and angry, gathered in the big tent to discuss countermeasures. "Start the war! Start the war! Take all your strength and flatten them!" King Heng roared loudly.
A counselor gritted his teeth and dissuaded: "The prince should calm down. Now he should not act rashly. He should think calmly and find a countermeasure."
Another general also hurriedly said: "Yes, if what Zhao Duan said is true, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to conquer the capital. It would be very unwise to advance rashly at this time."
Another person said:
"Prince, this matter may not be true. Not to mention, the authenticity of the 'Zhao Duan' in the tent has not been confirmed. Even if it is true, is what he said true? Everyone knows that the female emperor Luo Shan is seriously injured and can still sit in the capital now? This matter... In my opinion, we should find out clearly and make plans. But before that, we should focus on rescuing His Highness the Crown Prince."
The face of King Heng was gloomy and glorious, and suddenly looked at Ning Xianzong: "Xianzong, what do you think?"
The Qingzhou Army commander, who had been persuaded to the public before, stood silently in the corner of the tent.
He watched coldly, his heart slightly cold.
When he was competing for merit, his words were excluded and ignored. Now he wants to save the scene, but he is remembered again.
Ning Xianzong raised his head, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and said calmly: "Prince, we have no choice but to fight. If the empress really returns to the court and attacks the capital is extremely slim. She should retreat to Qingzhou and make plans. But if she retreats in a hurry, she will only be beaten by the pursuit.
On the contrary, with the current peak morale, she can attack and retreat and defend, and then she will be invincible.
Besides, in my opinion, Zhao Du An Ji may be bluffing and deliberately scaring us away, making us hesitate. Otherwise... why should he have a "peace talk" scene? Why don't he fight in front of him or drums on the other side?
So, I think that even if he really brought some reinforcements, it would definitely not be enough to threaten us, so he could only intimidate us and gain time. This method is also in line with this person's past style of deep scheming and playing with people's hearts."
Ning Xianzong's words were clearly organized and powerful. Everyone in the tent nodded, and his panic was relieved.
Many people even had their eyes shiny. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that the possibility of the "empty city plan" was extremely high.
King Heng was like holding a life-saving straw. His eyes lit up. He walked out excitedly and held Ning Xianzong's hand:
"So, maybe 'Zhao Duan' is bluffing? Even this 'Zhao Duan' may not exist? Maybe it is because of the desperate situation of the Five Military Camps, and hesitated:
Ning Xianzong frowned, resisted the urge to pull his hand back, and hesitated:
"This matter must be verified. At the end, the general is willing to command the troops and immediately capture the Five Military Camps. The truth will be revealed at that time."
King Heng was overjoyed: "Okay, I will work hard for the general to save Zu Di."
The rest of the people also praised that Qingzhou's troops were not strong, so the reason why they could defeat three consecutive games was not only the secret weapons of the Heng Palace, but also the command of Ning Xianzong's battle formation.
This commander, who was originally not famous, performed extremely well in the battle not long ago, and even Yuan Feng was suppressed.
…
...
After a command, at the junction of Qingzhou, the two military camps were like huge machines, rumbling to start.
Although Shenji Camp has been running all the way, the soldiers can still enter the battle because the journey is not far, especially because of their high morale.
After Zhao Duan's order, Shi Meng, Chen Gui, Tang Ping and others led the Shenji Camp and seized the battlefield with strong and domineering power.
The soldiers of the Five Army camp, whose morale had already fallen to the bottom, learned that reinforcements had arrived and asked to retreat to the camp and cooperate naturally.
In a blink of an eye, the Shenji Camp entered the battlefield.
At the same time, Zhao Duan led a group of senior generals from the fifth military camp to climb high on foot and arrived at the back of the military camp on a mountain.
In midsummer, the mountains are lush and green, the sky is covered with clouds and the cold wind blows on the face.
Zhao Duan changed back to his official robe - with his cultivation level, wearing armor would restrict his movements.
At this moment, he held the hilt of the knife with his right hand, stood in front of the crowd, climbed up to look ahead.
I saw two armies looking at each other from a distance on a flat open space. At this moment, with the rumbling sound of hammers in the camp, the low drum sound almost hit everyone's hearts.
The battlefield below is like a chessboard.
At this moment, the cavalry and infantry of Shenji Camp lined up to the camp, and the leader asked for the charge was the young master Tang Ping, who was carrying a silver helmet and silver armor, carrying a bow and arrow, and carrying a spear.
After the camp, another hill perfectly hidden under the trees, Chen Gui stroked his beard and directed a famous Shenji Camp artillery to unload one of the latest Shenwei cannons wrapped in rainproof cloth from the car, buried it on the ground, and quickly adjusted according to the "Architecture Manual".
It's just a scene here, neither the Qingzhou soldiers nor the generals of the Five Military Camp on the top of the mountain know about it.
"The battlefield is like a chessboard. I have never commanded a battle. Today is the big girl who is in a sedan chair. The first time I am." Zhao Duan looked at the mountain and felt a sense of pride in his heart. He held a knife with one hand and pointed the front with the other: "That is where King Heng's tent?" What he pointed to was a "watch tower" built of wood behind the Qingzhou Army camp.
The commander Yuan Feng, who was forcibly stolen by Zhao Duan, looked worried. He was even more frightened when he heard this, and even prepared to be defeated and fled.
However, the scene of Zhao Duan killing the old man in the gray robe in seconds made Yuan Feng realize that his and others' martial arts are definitely not Zhao Duan's opponent.
At this time, he realized it later and realized:
The reason why Zhao Duan fought in the tent was perhaps not the prince, but to "kill the chicken to warn the monkey" to intimidate them and lay the foundation for a strong takeover of the military camp.
Disturbations in my heart fluctuated, and Yuan Feng said muffled: "Yes. When the war started, King Heng was also watching the battle here."
"That's how it was," Zhao Duan silently estimated the distance and muttered softly:
"I wonder if I can hit the prince in one shot."
