March 15: Exploring the Secret Realm and Obtaining the Supreme Treasure, Destroying Dugu and Deterring Xihu 58
Wanjun City has entered a state of lockdown. Eight million Linghua troops under the city have surrounded this thousand-year-old capital. This time it is a real siege. There is no weak spot. Strict control measures have also been implemented in the city. Every day
Except for two hours in the morning when people can go out to buy what they need for the day, they must stay at home the rest of the time. If they disobey, they will be killed on the spot as spies.
In the city lord's palace, Wattaguli and Xian Yutong, the city guard general of Wanjun City, were sitting on the left and right seats at the bottom respectively, while at the top was an energetic old man sitting, with his brows and the great chief's face.
They are three-thirds alike. He is wearing a gilt robe of a Gun dragon and a purple gold crown of a Panlong on his head. At a glance, one can tell that he has an extraordinary identity. This person is the Xian Prince Dugu Yuanshan, one of the four princes of the Dugu tribe.
In the Dugu tribe, not every royal child can be crowned king, and not every prince can sit in the position of prince. In order to do so, one must meet extremely stringent conditions in terms of strength, merit, qualifications, and loyalty.
It is possible to be awarded the title of prince, and a maximum of four princes can be granted the title. In the current Dugu tribe, the four princes are all uncles of the great chief. They are also the top combat power in the entire tribe. Each of them
The princes have heavy troops in their hands, but these troops are not subject to the control of the chief. They will not show up on weekdays. They will only be led by the prince when the tribe is in trouble or there is a major event that truly determines the future of the tribe.
campaign!
Duguyuanshan looked at Wataguli, Xianyutong and the other generals below, and after a moment he said in his old voice: "Linghua's army is besieging the city, but fortunately we have already prepared to send the garrison of the towns along the way.
They all withdrew and left nothing for the other side. As for those untouchables, hehe, just let them go. How big is our army and how much money and food we have now?"
After hearing this, the logistics manager immediately stood up and replied: "Back to your lord, our army currently has 5.31 million people, and the money and food are enough to support it for a year. However, our military supplies such as charms and rune stones may not be able to survive the attack of the Linghua army regardless of consumption.
It can only last for half a year."
Wataguli smiled and said: "Haha, half a year should be enough. Don't forget, the Linghua army is on an expedition, and their consumption is far greater than ours. Even if the Linghua clan has a great cause, I'm afraid it won't be enough."
We can't afford such consumption, not to mention that we can't just be beaten in peace."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, another middle-aged woman laughed and said: "Gee, it seems that our Lord Taiqing really doesn't understand military affairs, well, and he doesn't know much about his enemies.
I don’t understand it at all, so it’s no wonder that the majestic Yongding City was lost so easily, leaving many resources and a complete city in vain!”
"Shen Jialuo, you're a slut who can't do anything personally. If you have the guts, just say what you just said again!" Wattaguli roared with no image at all.
Shen Jialuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold tone: "So what if I say it again? Am I telling a lie? Or am I saying that you, Lord Taiqing, won the battle and are now back to repay your merits? Huh,
I only know that making noises in front of us is nothing, but Yin Yunxi defeated the whole army and even his three generals died in the hands of others. He also ran to Wanjun City with his tail between his legs. After defeating the army,
How majestic it will be!"
Vataguli was furious and wanted to take action, but Duguyuanshan shouted loudly: "Shut up, both of you. You two are important ministers of the country, but you still act like a shrew in the market. How can you behave like this? This is
This place where we discuss military and national affairs is not a place for you to quarrel. If you want to quarrel, just get out and quarrel. And you, Shen Jiaro, if you have something to say, don't make insinuations!"
After being sternly warned, Shen Jialuo stopped talking and said calmly: "When Yongding City was still in our hands, Yin Yunxi only brought five million people, but as soon as he got the city, he immediately
Five million more troops were added. Wanjia City does not have many troops and there are not many powerful generals. I am afraid that it will be revealed soon. Everyone, what does this mean? Haha, Yin Yunxi did not come to rob and leave, but
They want to firmly take root and turn those two cities into their forward bases. Don't forget that Linghua Sect has a teleportation array. Once the array is established, it really won't be a problem to supply tens of millions of troops.
, not to mention there is a large area of land over there that can be used as their base!"
Having said this, she paused and continued: "To a certain extent, they are not afraid of fighting a protracted war, but we are. If the siege lasts too long, we will not only be short of money and food, but we may also lose military morale.
It’s stable!”
Wataguli was shocked when she heard this. She knew that this possibility was very high, but instinctively she was unwilling to believe it. She subconsciously said: "This is impossible. You must know that the tribe peacefully regained the Three Kingdoms and obtained those lands.
It also took us hundreds of years to absorb it all, how could Linghua Sect be able to do it with just a few months!"
Dugu Yuanshan, who was in the first place, waved his hands and said: "There is no need to argue about this matter. Whether it can be done or not is a matter for Linghua Sect. What we have to consider is our own money, food and military supplies. Now we cannot be self-sufficient, so we must
Do you have any good ideas to open up the road to Santan City?"
The hall suddenly became quiet. After a while, the Lord of Wanjun City smiled and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, in the eyes of this official, this is just a trivial matter." At this point, he paused deliberately,
The shock on everyone's faces made him very satisfied, so he continued: "In order to leave a way for themselves to survive, the royal family of the Qin State in the old days built an underground path leading to a remote dense forest outside Santan City.
We can use this secret tunnel to travel between the two cities. Hehe, in this way we can continue to compete with Yin Yunxi. Maybe over time, his elite troops will be exhausted by us.
At that time, I had to retreat to mine pass in despair, haha."
Everyone laughed when they heard the words. Early the next morning, with drums rumbling and flags flying, Dugu Yuanshan stood on the top of the city and looked at the endless enemy camp, but there was no wave in his eyes. However, he felt
The strange thing is that the enemy army was clearly well prepared, but they did not attack the city in the end. It was like a false shot, and then they retreated to the camp and died down.
······
Zheng Lingxiao and his party dug almost three feet into the Dugu Army's large tent. However, they did not find any clues about the Five Tribulations Demonic Cone. Zheng Lingxiao smiled helplessly when he looked at the messy tent and turned around.
The head then asked the guard leader: "You have been following the chief for quite a long time, right? Well, tell me, where will he hide the Five Tribulations Demon-proofing Cone? Haha, he has cultivated to the Broken Thought Realm.
It is not easy, and the time and resources consumed are not a small amount. You must cherish your own lives."
The meaning of this sentence is quite clear. The guard leader naturally knew it. He shook his head and said: "You don't have to remind me deliberately. I know very well that if the chief is here, we will never submit. But if you use it, we will all
He defeated him in a recognized way, and he actually wanted to sacrifice himself to the Soul Witch Clan in the end. This is what we will never allow. So, don’t worry, I will tell you everything I know. The chief is in the palace.
There is indeed an inner palace inside, but it is just his small treasury. Apart from some money and treasures, there is actually nothing important in it. However, I vaguely know that he seems to have a storage room, which is very located.
It’s so secret that even I don’t know where it is.”
Zheng Lingxiao touched his chin and murmured: "In that case, the treasure should be hidden in that secret storage room. Haha, it seems that we can't even think about going to the capital now. You and I
Let’s talk about the specific situation in the capital and the arrangement of the Soul Witch Clan there.”
Three hours later, the guard leader walked out of the big tent. His expression was calm and his steps were steady. It seemed that there was no wave in his heart. In the distance, a group of Dugu soldiers stood solemnly, silently.
They were waiting for the young man's decision. Suddenly, a message sounded in the ears of the six generals: "Please invite the six generals to discuss matters in the big tent."
I don’t know why, but after hearing this voice, the six generals who held military power all breathed a sigh of relief. They quickly entered the tent. After a greeting, Zheng Lingxiao smiled and said: "Haha
, I believe you all have guessed my identity. Yes, I am Zheng Lingxiao from Linghua Sect. This time I entered your Dugu tribe to do something. Well, the most important thing is of course the Xihu tribe. My sect has agreed.
We have to protect them. I'm afraid their liaison envoy has gone back now. As for killing your chief, this is just a temporary idea. Okay, everyone, what are your thoughts or opinions on this?
"
Although these words were said with a smile, these old guys who have been around for many years can naturally hear the murderous intention contained in them. However, as soldiers, they do not bother to please and cater to them. A bearded general in golden armor stood at the
He stood up and clasped his fists and said loudly: "This little knight, I am the Lingjiu Lieutenant General Sha Wuliang. I know what you mean. You killed the chief in a way that we all recognized. We all admire you for this, and
I won’t have trouble with you for revenge of the great chief, but as soldiers of the tribe, we naturally have to fight for the tribe. If you want to enslave us, then I’m sorry, I, Lao Sha, will be the first to refuse!”
Zheng Lingxiao didn't say anything when he heard this, but looked at the other five generals. Unexpectedly but reasonably, these five people all stood with Sha Wuliang, even when facing each other.
He held Zheng Lingxiao's sword without even frowning. The young boy just stared at their eyes for a long time. Suddenly, he grinned and laughed. He nodded at the six people and said, "Then what do you guys tell me?"
I, what is the purpose of joining the army?"
It was Sha Wuliang who spoke again: "It's very simple. It's to protect our land and our home. Anyone who wants to destroy or occupy it is our enemy. We will fight him to the end at all costs, even you.
I know that even the six of us combined cannot stop your sword, but even so, we have fulfilled our duties as soldiers!"
Zheng Lingxiao nodded and continued: "Then the Soul Witch Clan destroyed your towns, massacred your people, used their life, flesh and blood essence to sacrifice to the evil god to increase their own power, and then in turn plundered you even more wildly.
Do you know all about our land?"
The six people were speechless when they heard this, but Zheng Lingxiao ignored them and continued: "I came all the way from Yongding City and destroyed a total of fifty-eight soul wizard strongholds, big and small. Those are your towns, and every stronghold
The people there were killed and sacrificed by them. They said that they were white bones at the altar, and they were trying their best to take your feelings into consideration. Then I ask you, when those people call you in endless pain, what will you do?
Where?"
Faced with this question, the six people lowered their heads, but Zheng Lingxiao opened their scars mercilessly: "You are besieging the Xihu tribe here, and the Xihu tribe has expressed their willingness to surrender. Completely
surrendered, but your chief wanted to kill them all. In order to get the help of the Soul Witch Clan, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his own people, and he did not hesitate to turn the towns everywhere into jungles and ghosts. Go and see, they are all
What kind of place is this? Shrouded in black mist, not a single blade of grass grows. Is this how you protect your land and your home?"
Facing this question, the six of them were already at a loss. It was as if their long-held belief had been ruthlessly broken. Zheng Lingxiao's voice sounded again: "Outside Sanhekou, in the basin of Darongshu Village, your
Three million robes were sold to Bu Dan of the Soul Witch Clan by a guy named Qilgru. Haha, guess what their fate will be next?"
After hearing these words, the six generals raised their heads and looked at Zheng Lingxiao in disbelief, but Sha Wuliang said with red eyes: "This is impossible, you are talking nonsense, don't think we don't know.
, the one who is resisting your Ling Hua army over there is Marshal Dugu Yiyun, who is Qilglu, what qualifications does he have to betray the army!"
Zheng Lingxiao smiled disdainfully and said: "Huh, do I need to deceive you with such a lie that can be exposed immediately? Besides, this order was given by your chief, and Di Luo and Bicui have surrendered now.
Si and Berard are still with Generalissimo Yin Yunxi, haha, you can verify this information!"
The six people looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. After a while, another thin general said: "Okay, I'm going to verify it. If you lie, I will splash your blood even if I risk my life!"
After the words fell, he hurriedly walked out, and the big tent suddenly became quiet. About half an hour later, he hurried back and shouted angrily: "Assholes, those bastards, our front army
He was really killed by the soul refining array, and that bastard Bu Dan had also been found. He was carrying a shriveled essence of life and flesh on his back. Marshal Dugu Yiyun was transferred back to the capital.
He was put under house arrest, but he was found an excuse to kill him within two days, and now the capital is already in chaos!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then they became furious. Sha Wuliang clapped his hands and shouted angrily: "Where is that bastard Qilglu? Where has he gone? We must find him out and punish him in public!
"
The previous general lowered his head dejectedly, and said quietly: "I'm afraid... we don't have that ability. Haha, who would have thought that Prince Bao and Prince Lu among the four princes would actually jump.
They came out to protect Zilgru, and also made it clear that the chief was dead, and all the power of the tribe was temporarily under their control. Now, the entire capital city is under their control, what do you think we should do?"
Another general with a mustache shouted: "His grandma, they are the princes of the tribe. How can they do this? You know, our family members are all in the capital. If they use these people to blackmail us,
, but we have to obey orders. By the way, where are Prince Xian and Prince Yi?"
The thin general became even more helpless and said in a low voice: "Prince Yi has forcibly separated a large territory in the northwest and established himself as king. Moreover, it is said that the supporters behind him are the Ximen family, that is,
Only Prince Xian is still in Ten Thousand Army City preparing for a decisive battle with Ling Hua's army, but now he is besieged by tens of millions of troops, and they won't fight him at all, it is obvious that he wants to kill them all!"
After some narration, the six people fell silent again, but they could hear the sound of their fists being clenched. A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Lingxiao was the first to speak: "Everyone, now you have to face someone.
The question is, those two Princes Bao and Lu will definitely use your family members to blackmail you. Maybe they have already colluded with the Soul Witch Clan. If the time comes, he orders you to massacre the people to give the Soul Witch Clan as souls.
If you want to eat, what should you do? Haha, are you about to give up your faith?"
When the six people heard this, their bodies couldn't help but tremble wildly. At this time, Zheng Lingxiao continued: "Do you know that on our way here, we destroyed several strongholds of the Soul Witch Clan, and they were all transformed into your transit
Resting places, but in those places, soul-inducing formations have been set up, and the black mist is shrouding them. Haha, it seems that even your great chief wants to buy you!"
Hearing this, the six people had painful expressions on their faces. An elite army like them had turned into goods for others to trade. Sha Wuliang desperately suppressed his emotions and shouted: "But, what do we have now?"
There is no way, the lives of everyone in the family are in someone else's hands, how can we make waves!"
Zheng Lingxiao smiled evilly and said lightly: "I have a way!"
Chapter completed!
