After watching the soldiers go, Zhang Lingfeng looked at those who stayed and shouted solemnly: "I know that some of you meet the requirements but choose to stay. I won't check them one by one. I am the one who stays." Brother, it’s the same thing that left!”
As he spoke, his sharp eyes swept around him. Several soldiers did not dare to look at him and lowered their heads. It was obvious that they were the ones who stayed behind privately.
"Some of you must have guessed that our situation is very bad. Yes, to tell you the truth, the imperial court has decreed that the marshal and the southern army are traitors. It is simply ridiculous. You and I follow the marshal in the expedition, and our loyalty can be learned from the sun and the moon. How can a piece of edict be slandered!"
Zhang Lingfeng shouted loudly with an excited expression. His voice was blessed by internal force and deafening. It reverberated throughout the canyon and reached the ears of every soldier.
For a moment, there was silence in the military formation, and everyone's expressions were very exciting, including confusion, shock, anger... various emotions were constantly changing.
Suddenly, the person closest to Zhang Lingfeng stood up. He was a young general. He carried his luggage and shouted excitedly: "General, since we have all been beaten as rebels, why did you give our soldiers to Guo Ye? Then? Isn’t it like a sheep entering a tiger’s mouth?”
Zhang Lingfeng said calmly: "Even if the imperial court declares all the conquering southern troops to be traitors, it is Marshal Lin and I who will be held accountable! You are just soldiers who obey orders. You will not be punished even if you are taken back. The Taichu Dynasty still needs you. !”
"You already know the reason. I will tell you that the road ahead will be very difficult. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a narrow escape. If you still want to go in, immediately put down your weapons and leave. I, Zhang Lingfeng, will not stop you, and I can guarantee that Guo Ye The general will not make things difficult for you!"
Zhang Lingfeng gently pulled the reins of the horse, steered the horse aside, and made way for the entrance to Stonehenge. He made a gesture of invitation with a calm expression.
In silence, the soldiers looked at each other with complex expressions, and many of them showed tangled expressions. General Zhang never exaggerated. The nine-death life he said was terrifying, and there were a few people who were not afraid of real death.
The sound of "clang" of weapons falling to the ground came from the team. Although the sound was not loud, it sounded extremely harsh. Then a soldier in the team lowered his head and ran straight towards the Chaos Formation. His face was full of guilt. color.
Zhang Lingfeng just watched him leave without saying anything or showing any displeasure.
If there is one, there will be two. The soldier's departure is like opening a floodgate. A large number of soldiers put down their weapons and ran towards the stone formation, including many generals in the army.
There were also many people in the team with firm eyes, looking at Pao Ze leaving with disdain on their faces.
In the stone formation, there were defenders sent by Guo Ye to meet them. These departing warriors were also taken in by Guo Ye.
Finally, no one came out from Zhang Lingfeng's army. He ordered the team to be readjusted and the weapons left behind by the departing soldiers were piled together.
The one hundred thousand army that was originally crowded in the canyon now seemed much empty. More than half of the soldiers had left, and the weapons they left behind were piled up in front of the stone formation.
"The whole army obeys the order! Come out of the valley, let's go!" Following Zhang Lingfeng's order, tens of thousands of soldiers turned around and retreated.
In the stone formation, Guo Ye rushed out on horseback. He stopped in front of the stone formation, looked at the backs of Zhang Lingfeng and others leaving, and then looked at the weapons piled together. He turned over and dismounted, facing Zhang Lingfeng solemnly performed a military salute in the direction of his departure.
A lieutenant general came to Zhang Lingfeng's side and said: "General, our army just had an army of 100,000, and Guo Ye only has 50,000. Even if they occupy a favorable location, we are not without the strength to fight. Why don't we attack them?" Woolen cloth?"
Zhang Lingfeng said angrily: "Doesn't attacking friendly forces prove the crime of rebellion? How can it be a man to attack Paoze! I only kill the enemy with my sword!"
The deputy general looked guilty and said: "The situation is serious now, where should we go?"
"Xuanjian City!" Zhang Lingfeng spat out three words and stopped talking. The deputy general's face turned ugly when he heard this. They all knew the information about Xuanjian City. Geng Jingzhong and tens of thousands of Dongxia troops were entrenched in the city, so it would be very difficult to attack the city. Just imagine.
The deputy general's eyes were complicated. He slowly slowed down his horse. Looking at Zhang Lingfeng's back, he murmured to himself: "General, you want to rectify the name of our army! In this case, the general will follow the general. , at worst, he will be a hero again in eighteen years!" His eyes gradually became firm, and he chased after him.
Zhang Lingfeng led more than 40,000 troops and headed straight for Xuanjian City.
Within a few hours, Yingnan County Governor Tan Kui mobilized 30,000 troops from nearby counties and cities, and set off from Liangcheng in the direction of Yinma Shoal.
The monkey kept changing his position to detect Tan Kui's every move. He knew that this team must not be there to support Lin Chuhe. When he knew that the county guard was fake, the monkey knew that Marshal Lin's plan would probably fail.
Following Tan Kui from the Sheriff's Mansion, the monkey is looking for the best opportunity to assassinate him, because the opponent may have the skills of a saint. If he wants to take action, he must kill him with one strike. Obviously, the heavily guarded Sheriff's Mansion is not suitable, so he can only wait. Success is possible only when Tan Kui relaxes his vigilance on the road.
With a team of tens of thousands of people and masters following him, it is extremely difficult for the monkey to not only kill people but also obtain the imperial edict and the tiger talisman.
No matter what, the monkey has to give it a try. Allowing fake Tan Kui to act will definitely be detrimental to Lin Chuhe's army. You must know that Jiang Huaishi and many of his colleagues are in the army, and the monkey cannot sit idly by in public or private matters.
As a civil servant, Tan Kui did not practice martial arts, and his physique was not very strong. Someone arranged a carriage as soon as he left the county governor's house. Tan Kui got on the carriage, and the grandmaster guarded him outside the carriage.
When the team was halfway through the journey, the monkey suddenly appeared in front of the master, and at the same time he kept shooting with the exquisite flying knife in his hand.
The teachers and students of this sect were tall and thick, with rough faces and two axes in their hands. Even if they were wearing armor, they looked like bandits.
When the master master saw the flying knives coming, he immediately waved his ax and stopped many flying knives. None of the flying knives could get close to him, and even the flying knives aimed at the carriage were stopped by him.
Monkey's flying knife master could stop him, but the ordinary guards suffered misfortune. More than ten people were shot by flying knives and died miserably.
"Xu Zhen, you stupid pig, come and kill me if you can, I guarantee you won't even be able to touch my shadow!" Monkey made a face towards the master and mocked.
This master master is considered a famous master in Yingnan County. His official position is that of a county lieutenant. He is in charge of the deployment and command of the city guards of a county. He can be said to be the number one person under the county guard and a truly powerful figure.
As a secret agent of the Seven Kills Battalion, Monkey naturally knew the masters of Yingzhou very well. When he saw the county lieutenant, Xu Zhen's information had already appeared in his mind.
Xu Zhen, a lieutenant of Yingnan County, was originally a grass bandit who became king in Luoshan, but was later recruited by the imperial court. The strength in the middle stage of Dacheng Realm, a pair of Xuanhua axes open and closed, extremely powerful, warlike and brave but a little too straightforward.
"You are looking for death! I hate people calling me stupid!" Xu Zhen said angrily, while holding a double ax and charging towards the monkey.
When the monkey saw this, he stopped shooting the flying knives and ran away. Xu Zhen missed the target.
"Sir, you go on your way first. I will kill this bastard and come back immediately!" Xu Zhen left a word and chased in the direction the monkey left without waiting for Tan Kui to say anything.
Tan Kui was not impressed and ordered to move on.
The monkey seemed to be waiting for Xu Zhen and did not use the fastest speed. He controlled the speed and always kept a certain distance from Xu Zhen. However, the distance kept shrinking. After running a long distance, Xu Zhen was about to catch up. After getting on the monkey, he shouted with a ferocious smile: "You bastard, let me see where you can run!"
Xu Zhen's strength is already superior to that of Monkey, and Monkey doesn't hide it deliberately. His strength has long been seen by Xu Zhen. In Xu Zhen's view, there is a big gap. As long as he catches up with Monkey, how to handle Monkey is not a problem. He does whatever he pleases.
The moment Xu Zhen suddenly accelerated and struck the monkey with the axe, the monkey suddenly increased his speed and avoided the blow of the axe. Then the monkey chuckled lightly and turned into thousands of figures to attack Xu Zhen.
The pair of axes in Xu Zhen's hands shone brightly, and every time he struck, he would destroy several of the monkey's clones. The difference in strength was too great, and even the monkey's Hundred Flowers Killing would be of no avail.
However, the monkey's target was not Xu Zhen. The figures formed by the Hundred Flowers Killing quickly dissipated, but the monkey himself took advantage of the chaos and headed towards the county guard's carriage at high speed.
By the time Xu Zhen reacted and caught up, the monkey had already run far away. This time, the monkey's speed was used at full strength. Even the master Xu Zhen couldn't catch up with him for a while, so he could only chase after him in a hurry.
Just as the monkey approached the marching team, the monkey used a secret method to disappear and quietly came to the carriage of the governor Darao.
Time was running out, so the monkey took action decisively. He held the two daggers of Yi Shui and Can Yang at the same time and rushed into the carriage.
After the monkey rushed into the carriage, he stabbed Tan Kui, who was sitting alone in the carriage, with two daggers at the same time. In his understanding, Tan Kui had no internal energy fluctuations and no energy blessing. As long as he had no time to call out the mysterious A saint, it would be easy to kill him.
However, facing the monkey's killing blow, Tan Kui did not panic at all, and there was even a trace of ridicule on his face.
The monkey only felt that the path of the two daggers was blocked by an invisible force. No matter how he moved the daggers, no matter how amazing the red and blue light was, he could not make any further progress.
Then the monkey felt an invisible fist suddenly hit his face. The monkey was knocked away and his face was covered with blood.
The moment the monkey flew out of the carriage, a large number of soldiers gathered over, and Xu Zhen also appeared in the monkey's sight.
Tan Kui's methods were weird. Even if he was one-on-one, he was no match. Monkey knew that the assassination would probably have to be given up. He quickly stood up and used his body skills to disappear.
Xu Zhen rushed into the carriage to check. What he saw as soon as he entered was a dagger stuck in Tan Kui's shoulder. The county guard was sitting on the ground with a pale face, covering the wound.
"Call the doctor quickly!" Xu Zhen shouted loudly.
After a while, an old man got on the carriage, checked Tan Kui's injuries, and said with relief: "The dagger did not hit the vital point. Your Excellency, Hong Fuqi, is not seriously injured. He will be fine soon after applying the medicine." "
