That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 468 In Eternal Desolation City, outside that city

Today's Eternal Desolation City has only three or four thousand troops, but Chu Zixu bypassed the front line and suddenly came towards Eternal Desolation City. This was unexpected by everyone. However, Chu Zixu came with an army of tens of thousands. It is simply impossible to use a few thousand people in this area to block it for three days.

Even if it's just a general leading an army of tens of thousands, it's not something a few thousand people in this area can stop, not to mention that the leader of the army is Chu Zixu, the majestic God of War. With these three words, the soldiers of Eternal Desolation City lost Lost confidence, the morale of the army was low, and the troops were insufficient. Zhuge Xiu was also a little bit powerless at this time.

  After letting his staff leave, Zhuge Xiu sat alone in the tent, looking at the map with confusion in his eyes.

  At noon, outside the tent of the army camp in Henghuang City, a holy envoy from Cangzhou City asked to see Zhuge Xiu.

  Zhuge Xiu asked someone to lead the envoy into the tent. The envoy was an old man who had been with Su Zhui all the year round, and he hurriedly asked, "What is your Majesty's order?"

There was a wave of true energy from the envoy, and the tent was cut off, and he said softly: "Marshal Zhuge, Your Majesty... has made a decision, as you said before, this farce has come to this point, It should be over, a few days ago, His Majesty has already negotiated with Gu Houye, and the five hundred iron pagodas were also given to Gu Houye."

"Two days ago," Zhuge Xiu pondered for a moment, suddenly felt relieved, sat down slowly, smiled slightly, and said, "This battle is ultimately a meaningless war, and His Majesty's decision...is indeed in my expectation. Li, if that’s the case, let’s go with fate!”

  The envoy said again: "Marshal, Your Majesty said that since it's already here, I want you to prepare early and leave. The people in Siying Village are all ready to go to the Black Territory."

  Zhuge Xiu waved his hand and said: "There is no rush, wait until the reinforcements arrive to relieve the danger of Eternal Desolation City, and then make a decision after singing this play!"

  The envoy sighed, and after a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said, "Chu Zixu is coming in menacing ways, what are you going to do?"

"It's just a play. So many people in this world are acting as actors for this play. It's a pity that only a few people can be remembered. Then I, Zhuge Xiu, can't fall behind. Let’s sing together—Empty City Strategies!”

  ...

Hundreds of miles away from the Henghuang City of Cangzhou, at the camp of the Xia Army, wisps of cooking smoke are rising, and the battle flags are fluttering. You can't see the endless army at a glance. In this hot weather, the spears are still glowing cold light.

On a hill, Chu Zixu, the legendary God of War of the Great Xia, stood with his sword standing, his iron armor glowing, Chu Zixu's white beard was faintly visible in the sun, but he was as radiant as in the legend, just standing, and there were pointers Jiangshan's boldness is convincing.

  Behind Chu Zixu is a middle-aged general who is reporting the military situation.

   "Marshal, Zhuge Xiu was caught off guard this time by brightly repairing the plank road and secretly hiding Chencang. I think you will be able to take down Eternal Desolation City in one fell swoop. At that time, we will drive straight into Cangzhou to capture the rebel Su Zhui alive!"

The middle-aged general was a little excited, an opportunity to make a contribution was right in front of him, and it was at his fingertips. The middle-aged general was full of energy at this time, and his excitement could not be hidden in his brows, but his brows were somewhat similar to Chu Zixu resemblance.

  Chu Zixu was very indifferent, looking into the distance, and said softly: "Boping, this time, the Eternal Wasteland City will take some time to take."

When the middle-aged general heard Chu Zixu's "Bo Ping", he was slightly stunned for a while, and then asked: "Father, why? This Eternal Desolation City is the best one to take down now. The entire Eternal Desolation City has only three to five thousand people, and With our tens of thousands of elite soldiers, we can take it within five hours at most!"

  Chu Zixu smiled slightly, turned around slowly, and said, "I asked you to pay attention to the situation of Qingyang Dao, how is it?"

Chu Boping clasped his hands and said: "No problem, just that something big has happened in Qingyang Dao Jianghu recently, there is a young man named Gu Qingshi carrying a coffin like Qingyang, along the way there are always rumors that he is carrying a strange treasure, Many people from all over the world flocked here, and several aristocratic families and sects were also involved."

"It's a little strange that this young man is very powerful, and many people died. Those aristocratic sects have suffered, but there are still unsightly aristocratic sects who want to make trouble, and then continue to suffer, such as Yesterday, the Pang family in Changping County was beaten by that young man, and finally a gentleman from Luming Academy happened to pass by, so they settled down."

  Chu Zixu sneered, and said: "Just passing by, this one happened to pass by, but it's a bit too coincidental, think about it carefully, although this young man has accidents along the way, has he suffered any disadvantages?"

"No!" Chu Boping said: "Not only did he not suffer, but he also became famous and earned the title of a little overlord. Several masters of the rivers and lakes hid under his martial arts spirit and took refuge in him. When he passed Sanhejian The old boxer Xia, who has been famous for many years, went out of the mountain to greet him in person, and made the seven or eight personal disciples he trained all follow the little overlord..."

When Chu Boping said this, he suddenly froze, and said in surprise: "Father, you don't mean that this is just a round, right? Are they all fake?"

"It's all true," Chu Zixu said with a smile, "but it's also false, but it's all arranged. Those who die and those who take refuge are all predestined by themselves. If there is no arrangement, there will always be a Confucian gentleman who happens to pass by." .”

Chu Boping was surprised and said: "Father, that young man came from Laoshan and flattened nearly 30% of the land boundary of Qingyang Dao along the way. Can the two thousand-year-old families of Qingyang Dao bear it? This is a robbery in their hands." what!"

  Chu Zixu nodded and said: "If you have a brother named Jianxian who doesn't have too many scruples, blocking the door with a sword, and pulling the Confucianism and the imperial court to pave the way for you, the thousand-year-old family will not dare to touch you, really."

"The imperial court!" Chu Boping was silent for a while, raised his head, and asked in disbelief: "Father, I remember you just said that it will take some time to win the Eternal Wasteland City because of this young man? Are you waiting for this young man?" ?”

   "That's right," Chu Zixu said, "However, it won't be long. Gu Qingci has already arrived in Qingyang. As long as he can control the Luo family and the Zhang family, Gu Qingshi will be able to get here soon."

Chu Boping frowned, and said: "Father, although I know that some things are the general trend, is Gu Qingci too self-righteous? His layout is too big. We have tens of thousands of troops, just because of his I don’t know how many brothers will be sacrificed in vain, father, so...we are sorry for so many brothers, you are the **** of war, their belief!"

   I moved bricks all day yesterday, and my body hurts so much!
