Because he didn't know how long his group of subordinates who led Huang Qiong's following army horses could distract the five hundred army horses and one hundred horse archers behind them. The longer you stay here, the more dangerous it will be. If the soldiers and horses behind this person come over, he will become a fish in the pot and cannot leave even if he wants to. He often leads troops to fight and is familiar with military affairs.
No matter how advanced the martial arts master is, he is no match against a large army. To win the rank of general from an army of millions means to dispatch troops and generals, to dare to use surprise troops, rather than to rely on one's own martial arts to deal with large armies. In front of a large army, anyone who wants to win alone by relying on martial arts is a total deceiver. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of bows, arrows and spears.
And the more he fought, the more uneasy he felt in his heart. Before fighting Huang Qiong, he had never thought that this guy was not only good at martial arts, but his martial arts skills were even inferior to his own. And not only this guy, but Duan Miao's martial arts also exceeded his expectations. In addition to martial arts, this kind of duel between masters also contains various calculations. One wrong step and one wrong step after another.
After secretly cursing "Damn it" in his heart, the Marquis Shanchan struck out with all his strength, knocking Huang Qiong back a step. With his hand, he pulled out a soft sword from his belt. With a rush of internal energy, the soft sword was straightened, and he swung the sword to attack again. Just when he waved the soft sword in his hand, he wanted to take down Huang Qiong completely. An arrow suddenly flew out, piercing one of his subordinates.
Then there was a roar, and a group of Qi troops rushed out from all directions, surrounding Shan Chanhou and his men. In the big stiff bow in his hand, the sharp arrows pointed brightly at Shan Chanhou and his subordinates. A general hurriedly walked up to Huang Qiong and bowed to apologize for the late arrival of help. Huang Qiong waved his hand in response to Zhao Wushan's apology, indicating that he did not pursue any further investigation after he got up.
And seeing that Huang Qiong's reinforcements had arrived, they saw a lot of wind and waves. But in the face of such a situation, even though Rao was calm, the Shanchan Marquis couldn't help but change his face drastically. Especially when he saw a circle of archers, with the bows and arrows in their hands pointing at him, his face even looked a little pale. He raised his head and looked at Huang Qiong in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that you were more than prepared."
"Not only did you mobilize some of the 2,000 troops and horses you had with you as a back-up force, you actually also mobilized troops and horses from Zhao Wushu on the front line. I really didn't expect that you would be so deep in the city at such a young age. No wonder the King of Shu and the King of Guilin, who are both top-notch figures, actually lost at your hands. Now it seems that the King of Shu and the King of Guilin did not lose unfairly."
Regarding Shan Chanhou's words, Huang Qiong said calmly with his hands behind his back: "For upright people, I will naturally use upright methods. For insidious and cunning people, I will naturally retaliate in the same way. Shan Chanhou Do you think that by mobilizing my reinforcements, you can plot against me? How can I really do what Hou Shanchan wishes and, as the king of a country, take my beloved wife here to take risks?"
"My beloved wife, their parents and relatives don't feel sorry for them, I, as a husband, feel sorry for them. They are all my beloved wives. It's too late for me to love them, so how can I really take them here to take risks? As for me, Why do the generals on the front line know that I and Shan Chanhou are here? They have to thank Shan Chanhou's brothers for their help. Now it seems that Shan Chanhou's house is not monolithic."
As Huang Qiong finished speaking, a man in white came out. Seeing this middle-aged man, Shan Chanhou was stunned for a moment, and then said in a calm voice: "Old Ba, I never expected that it was you who betrayed me. In these years, I have not done anything. I have not treated you mother and son badly. Although I have not sent you out to take charge of the army, I have always left the affairs of the house to you."
"How much money have you made over the years, both openly and secretly? Have I ever spoken to you or taken away half of your rights? I have always tolerated the things you and your cousins have done in private. , and I have never blamed you. You have done such a betrayal, are you worthy of me? Or do you think that because you betrayed me, you can sit on the position of Shanchanhou? "
After meeting this middle-aged man in white, the Shanchanhou pretended to be calm on the surface. But the uncontrollable anger in his words represented the anger in his heart at this moment. Faced with his cousin's anger, the man in white was extremely calm. He raised his hands to Shan Chanhou and said, "Cousin, I didn't expect that you and I would meet under such circumstances."
"It's just that I don't know how to call you now? Head of the family, Lord Marquis, cousin, or the murderer of my father and brother? Thirty years ago, your father poisoned my father to seize the status of Marquis Yue and the head of the family. Twenty Years ago, you poisoned my eldest brother for the sake of the position of the head of the family and the position of Marquis Yue, and for the sake of Princess Yunxiao. As a result, you, who were originally not eligible to inherit, took the title of Marquis Yue."
"It has been twenty years. Faced with you, the person who killed my father and brother, we have no choice but to endure in order to survive. If our mother and son had shown a trace of hatred in these years, we would have been dead long ago. Tangtang Brother, about my second brother’s death, do you really think I believed you were telling lies? How did my second brother die? Did you kill someone with a borrowed knife, or was he really killed in battle? Who knows better than you?"
"You keep saying that you have not treated our mother and son badly? Eighteen years ago, the third child defiled my mother after being drunk. You knew about it, but you did not do anything to deal with it. If it were not for the second brother and me, my mother would have been with you. That beast-like brother has been ruined many times and has long since died. Even in those years, if you had said a word, my mother would not have died in depression."
"Eldest cousin, what exactly have you and your direct brothers done to our branch? God knows, the earth knows, you know, and I also know clearly. The dirty things you have done over the years, you Do you really think that no one knows? I have been working hard for so many years just to wait for this day. Yes, I betrayed you. Not only did I betray you, I also sold the entire Shanchanhou Mansion."
"Now, the heads of your beast-like third brother and several of his sons are hanging on the top of Shanchan Mansion for public display. Shanchan Mansion has been captured by the Celestial Army. Yes, I arranged for the city gate to be opened. . Cooperate internally and externally with General Guo of the Celestial Dynasty, and destroy the Shanchan Mansion, which you thought was impregnable. Not only your beautiful family members, but also the sky-high wealth you have accumulated, have now changed their owners."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that your beast-like third brother and several of his sons were all killed by my own hands after the city was broken. And at this time, the Celestial Army is attacking you from both sides. Those troops deployed in Shicheng County. As for now, do you think you can go back alive? When you and your father and brother did those things, did you ever think that you would be today?"
As for this cousin, Shan Chanhou has always been shrewd and capable, and his eloquence is naturally excellent. He originally thought that he had concealed some things well, but he did not expect that his cousin knew everything. After giving a wry smile, he said: "I didn't expect that you seem to be quiet and silent, but you can see everything, and you can still endure it until now."
"It seems that I have indeed underestimated you. Now it seems that I did not eradicate the root cause. I made a mistake. If I had known today, when I sent your brother to Abi Hell, I should have sent all of you mother and son to hell. Send it down. Yes, your brother was killed by this Marquis with medicine. Your second brother was also removed consciously by this Marquis with the help of the Yang family. Because he knew too much."
"He knew the real cause of your eldest brother's death. Not only did he want to take the opportunity to drive me from the throne, but he also wanted to take the opportunity to oust me. The death that made me most intolerable was that he had been in private contact with the royal family and monitored every move of the prince's mansion for the royal family. So I For the sake of the stability of Shanchanhou Mansion, the Marquis can only send him to see your eldest brother. For me, no one, no matter who, can do anything that harms the Marquis Mansion is absolutely not allowed."
"But you are wrong about one thing. Your father was not killed by my father. He was poisoned to death by Yang Yunxian in collusion with your mother. Yang Yunxian and your mother were childhood sweethearts. It is just because the Yang family's status has increased in those years. In the eyes of your grandfather, he is not worthy of the Dong family. He is not as helpful to the Dong family as the Gao family, so he forcibly betrothed your mother to your father regardless of opposition."
"However, your mother has always been unwilling to accept it, and she has been secretly in contact with Yang Yunxian. Five years before your father's death, Yang Yunxian had already begun plotting a rebellion. As for your father, he regarded him as his biggest rival and love rival. So he secretly colluded. Your mother put the chronic medicine passed down by the Yang family into the decoction your father takes daily. That medicine is also a daily tonic. "
"It's just that with your father, among the medicines usually used to treat stomach problems, one medicine has conflicting properties. When the two medicines are put together, as long as a cup of tea is brewed, they will become a chronic medicine. After your father took that medicine, not only did it not have any effect, but his condition became increasingly weak. He wanted to change the medicine, but your mother insisted on not agreeing and always insisted on using that medicine. "
"If your father hadn't been strong in internal energy, he wouldn't have been able to last five years. I'm afraid your mother and her childhood sweetheart had joined forces to meet the Buddha. Therefore, it was not this prince who really killed your father. , not the father of this prince, but your biological mother and his childhood sweetheart. Do you really think that your mother died of depression because she was bullied by the third child? What a joke."
"The real reason why she died in depression was because she believed in her childhood sweetheart, which led to your father's death in her hands. It was not the reason of the third child. The third child did indeed do something wrong, but what did you do to me? For Your mother, I and my son are gnashing their teeth with hatred. If your father hadn't repeatedly refused to let my father pursue your mother before he died, do you think your mother could have lived for so many years?"
"Ten years ago, I was ordered by the court to put an end to Yang Yunxian's rebellion and killed Yang Yunxian's entire family. This was considered as avenging your father's death. What I really feel sorry for you is your eldest brother's matter. Who asked him to do so? Unfortunately, he was engaged to my sweetheart. Who allowed him to be favored by my father, and blocked my way despite his own son's desire to be registered as the heir to the Yuehou Mansion. "
"As for your second brother, do you think he is a flesh-and-blood member of the Gao family? He is nothing more than the child of your mother and that Yang Yunxian. I want your second brother to die in the hands of his biological father. It can be regarded as worthy of their father and son, and it can be regarded as erasing the shame that that person has brought to you and his son. As a cousin, I have done this, and it can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing."
The Shanchanhou's words seemed casual, but in fact he was trying to defend himself. Huang Qiong smiled, patted the man on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I have lived for almost thirty years, and I have never seen him." You have made such shameless remarks. You just fancy someone's fiancée, and you can poison them to death. For other things, the people involved are no longer here, so of course you can do whatever you say."
