Chapter 932 Green River
Inside the prisoner camp.
Fifty prisoners of the Northern King Army who had been hungry all night were surrounded by a group of elite Shenwu Army and flew southward.
Not to mention, the person in charge of interrogating them in front of them is a Jindan cultivator who doesn't talk about martial arts and goes to the battlefield himself.
No one thought of escaping.
Even if someone practiced the "iron legs floating on the water" to the extreme, he would be pierced by the flying sword like a cannonball, and blood would be sprinkled in the sky.
Although Xia Xiaoman was using a standard saber, the Frost Snow Sword was fluttering silently behind her, which seemed to show her status as a Golden Core cultivator.
The captives were silent, not daring to speak out.
Xia Xiaoman frowned: "Don't you want to say anything?"
"Hey!" The prisoner on the far left sneered: "Scholars can be killed, but not humiliated! We will never betray Prince Bei!"
"Exactly!" Someone took the initiative to speak, and the second prisoner from the left, I don't know who gave him the courage, he boldly said in a cold voice: "A mere girl, want to fight like the princes? It's ridiculous! The eldest prince With King Zhengbei, the Xia Clan is orthodox, and the destiny belongs to it!"
"Ugh—"
The blade flashed.
Two heads flew high.
Xia Xiaoman didn't agree with each other, and swung his knife.
The remaining forty-eight prisoners looked at the two headless corpses lying limply in horror, and at the same time took a breath of cold snow, which caused the air around the camp to warm up suddenly.
Xia Xiaoman took out the silk cloth from his waist, and gently wiped the hot and steaming blood on the knife. While wiping, he lowered his head and said softly:
"Who else?"
"..."
After a brief silence.
The remaining forty-eight captives rushed to recruit.
"You are in charge of recording, and order scouts to sneak into the city to investigate, to investigate the truth."
Xia Xiaoman stuck the blood-stained knife in the snow, turned and left with a tired face.
After General Shinpei left,
A group of majestic men who had already suffocated their stomachs of evil fire surrounded them, extorting confessions and telling the truth.
...
Xia Xiaoman returned to the tent.
She lit the oil lamp again, looked at the strategy map spread out on the table, and fell into deep thought.
"Green River City, the hub of the northern king connecting the north and the south, once it is taken down, it will be like cutting the northern king's throat with a knife, making the northern king in a dilemma. The withdrawal of troops from the front can also share the pressure on the east and the west.”
Xia Xiaoman dipped his pen and ink, and drew a big circle on the "Green River".
"Fight for the world...?"
Xia Xiaoman inadvertently saw the hateful expressions in the eyes of the fifty captives, and felt his chest tighten.
"What have I done to stabilize the Xia family?"
Xia Xiaoman rubbed the stinging eyebrows.
She knew that she was slaughtering the people of her Xia clan.
Even if this rebellion of the four kings is settled in the end, she will never leave a good reputation among the people.
"But as long as we can stabilize the Xia family for Ji'er, even if I, Xia Xiaoman, are reviled by thousands of people and left behind forever, what's the point?"
...
Unknowingly.
In the military tent, Xia Xiaoman fell asleep lying on the table like this.
She had forgotten how long it had been since she hadn't had a good night's sleep.
From time to time, she would miss the old days in Tianjianmen, sleeping until she woke up naturally, and eating meat until she was full.
"Brother, where are you..."
In the empty tent, Xia Xiaoman murmured softly with the corner of his mouth dripping.
As the candlelight flickered, Xia Xiaoman's shadow swayed silently.
...
the next day.
Xia Xiaoman woke up with sleepy eyes, feeling very fragrant.
She just got up and stretched contentedly, a warm blanket slipped from her shoulders.
Xia Xiaoman looked down at the brand-new blanket, was startled for a moment, then went out of the tent with a straight face.
"Who dared to break into this general's tent last night?"
Xia Xiaoman summoned several generals in charge of the security of the barracks.
"If you go back to the general, no one dares to trespass on the general's barracks."
Several generals looked at each other in blank dismay...Who dares to rush indiscriminately!
Leaving aside the fact that General Shinpei's name is there, let's say that General Shinpei's true identity is the eldest princess of Dagan. This man and woman are incompatible and morally bound, and no one dares to offend.
Xia Xiaoman asked again, but couldn't find out why.
She went back to the tent in wonder, wondering if she had been so busy going to the battlefield recently that her memory had faded?
Xia Xiaoman clutched the blanket, puzzled.
In the end, her eyes accidentally landed on the strategic map that she observed last night.
At first glance, she felt something was wrong.
After a second look, I found the reason for the strangeness.
I saw that in the circle of "Green River City",
I don't know when, there is an extra conspicuous "×".
...
...
The information has been inquired almost.
General Shinpei decided to forcibly attack the city.
The spies in front reported that the information spit out by the captives was true and false, but combined with the intelligence of the spies, the Shenwu Army had a preliminary outline of the deployment of troops in Lujiang City.
In charge of defending the city is the general "Aye Department" under the command of King Zhengbei, who is powerful and good at wielding double hammers.
When he was young, Ayebu had studied under the Taoism, and he knew some Taoism techniques.
His most fearsome thing on the battlefield is his "flying hammer". Aye can fly, as well as a hammer, flying wildly, hitting people and horses when seeing people, which is extremely violent.
In addition to the Aye tribe, there are a full 10,000 elite soldiers of the North King in Lujiang City.
Coupled with the perfect defense equipment, it is almost impossible to forcibly capture Lujiang City with Xia Xiaoman's thousand elite soldiers.
Even if they were captured, very few of these thousand elite soldiers could survive the battlefield.
In the past six months, Xia Xiaoman has been busy with calming the chaos, neglected to cultivate, his cultivation has stagnated, and he is still at the first level of the Golden Core Realm.
She can fight a hundred or a thousand, but facing a 10,000 well-equipped army and a sky full of arrows, she can't be safe and sound.
When they learned about the information in Lujiang City, several trusted generals expressed some resistance and doubts about Xia Xiaoman's decision to attack the city.
You, General Zhenping, are a majestic Golden Core cultivator, you can come and go in the wind and rain, but these brothers are just mortals, they can't fly.
But military orders are like mountains and cannot be disobeyed.
A thousand martial arts soldiers, dressed neatly, hurried forward in the woods while the sky was still dark.
Some people look sad,
Some people have even written suicide notes and sent people back to their hometowns.
"General Zhenping, the last general will fight with the general on the battlefield, and he has made great achievements in battle. Even if he donates the 80 catties of meat today, he will have no regrets!"
On the battle horse, a general sighed with emotion, and made a death sentence.
Xia Xiaoman was wearing a tight combat helmet, his face sank like water, and he didn't explain anything.
Before the sky fully dawned, a thousand martial arts troops finally arrived outside the city of Lujiang.
...
Green River City Wall.
Rarely, there was no fire, and the whole city was pitch-black, like a dead city.
"Scout over the wall, go up, and kill the sentry on the wall!"
Xia Xiaoman gave orders one after another.
Win more with less, never attack frontally, come in as insidiously as possible, this is the kingly way of war.
These were all taught by Senior Brother Lin Yi.
...
The secret siege begins.
soon,
Like a monkey, the scout who climbed up the city wall flexibly with the hook and rope quickly sent back a reply.
"Green River, Green River City...destroyed by itself!"
"Report! The city is in chaos!"
"Report again! All the generals are dead!"
"Report again! Overnight, all the generals of King Zhengbei died!"
"Ayebe is dead too!"
"His two hammers were strung together and hung between the corpse's legs!"
"Report! There is a line of blood writing on the wall in Aye's house!"
Xia Xiaoman flew up and entered the city with his sword.
really.
The city was in chaos. The tens of thousands of elites who conquered the Northern King were in chaos like headless chickens without command. After the Shenwu Army directly opened the city gate from the inside, they had no intention of fighting and surrendered not long after.
Xia Xiaoman was short of breath, his face was reddish, he walked all the way to the clinical death place of Aye Department with his sword.
see,
A strong man died tragically in his room. His body was hung upside down from the beam of the house, and two hammers were hung between his legs like two eggs.
This method of death was extremely tragic, and the way the corpse was disposed of was extremely cruel, making it unbearable to look directly at.
Just as the first scout said, in the room of Aye Department, there was a line of bloody words on the wall:
"The sky and the earth overwhelm the universe, sitting alone in the sky and enlightening the world!"
The last name is-
"Apocalypse!"
The moment I saw that line,
The dignified Jindan monk,
Jagged Lady,
Great princess,
General Shinpei,
Suddenly wept.
like a child.
"Brother..."
