Gao Yanshi took the order and left, and happened to meet Zhang Yi walking over.
The two looked at each other and passed each other.
Zhang Yi walked up to Zhao Hongming and reported, "Your Highness!"
Zhao Hongming turned around and asked in a calm tone: "Mr. Zhang, do you want to see me for something?"
"Your Highness, I heard that the county guard was going to take action against Your Highness, so I came here to offer something." Zhang Yi looked at the ground and said respectfully.
Zhao Hongming asked curiously: "Oh, what is it?"
Zhang Yi took out a long sleeve from his sleeve, held it in both hands and handed it to him: "This is some information I collected in my spare time. It may be useful to Your Highness."
Zhao Hongming caught the scroll and unfolded it to see that it was the map of Luling.
It marked the distribution of nearly a hundred martial arts schools, large and small, in Luling, as well as some locations outside Luling City that were suitable for infantry deployment, all marked one by one.
Extraordinarily detailed.
In this world, map exploration relies entirely on foot measurements, making it extremely difficult to create.
Anyone who can make a map is ruthless.
Even during the few months that Zhao Hongming stayed in Luling, he could not find a complete map.
I didn't expect that Zhang Yi could draw it by himself.
There is no doubt that this map will play a great role in Wu Qi's subsequent deployment of troops.
Zhao Hongming put away the scroll and said with a smile: "Sir, you are indeed a great talent. Come, please give this to Guard Chang and bring it to General Wu."
The guard guarding him took a step forward, caught the scroll in his hand, and quickly chased after him.
Zhao Hongming smiled and said: "What do you think about Chen Shenghai's plan to attack me?"
Zhang Yi said without thinking: "It's just an egg hitting a stone."
"Oh? Are you so sure?" Zhao Hongming half-smiled, and asked: "The other party is a second-grade martial artist, one of the highest martial artists in Ying County. Behind him are Chenjiazhuang and many martial arts forces, but I am just a warrior. He's just an ordinary prince."
"Your Highness, do you think I am a fool?"
"no."
"Then your Highness, do you think you are a fool?"
Zhao Hongming laughed dumbly, shook his head and said: "Although I am not the smartest, I am far from stupid."
Zhang Yi continued: "Those stupid men and women among the people still know how to seek good luck and avoid evil. If the thatched cottage shakes even slightly, they will run away in fear. But His Highness is countless times stronger than these stupid men and women. At this time, he is in crisis." However, he was calm and composed. This shows that His Highness must be his support."
"Chen Shenghai and his ilk are bound to be eggs." Zhang Yi put away the expression on his face and said, "Zhang Yi wishes His Highness victory and will retire first."
Zhao Hongming was so impressed by Zhang Yi's rhetoric that he found no flaws in his words.
"Being able to see the essence of things just through some appearances, and being extremely confident in his own judgment, Zhang Yi is really amazing. But no matter how powerful a person is, they still need to rely on my strength. This is how after practicing martial arts, It gave me the confidence.”
Zhao Hongming put his mind away and walked towards the martial arts field in the middle of Prince Wu's Mansion.
County Governor Chen Shenghai ordered people to guard the city gate, and then led a hastily formed "county soldiers" to attack Prince Wu's Mansion aggressively.
Under Wang Jingzhi's constant urging, all movements could not help but speed up a lot.
The nearly a thousand people involved made a lot of noise, and there was a lot of excitement when walking on the street.
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Prince Wu's Mansion, Chen Shenghai ordered: "The people from Chenjiazhuang follow me. The remaining people will guard Prince Wu's Mansion and not even allow the birds inside to fly out."
Under his order, more than twenty warriors separated from the team and followed Chen Shenghai closely.
And many other "county soldiers" began to surround Prince Wu's Mansion on three levels inside and three outside.
When Chen Shenghai and others walked to the gate of Prince Wu's Mansion, they found that the guards who were usually on duty were not there, and the gate was ajar. There was silence and something strange everywhere.
When Wang Jingzhi saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat and he said, "What's going on? Did King Wu escape in advance?"
"Even if he escapes, I will catch him and kill him." County Sheriff Chen Shenghai said with concern: "Go in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple from Chenjiazhuang walked to the front, put his hands on the door, and exerted all his strength.
Squeak!
The heavy door was slowly pushed open by him.
The other twenty or so people followed closely and filed in.
The county guard, Chen Shenghai, and the head of the Wang family, Wang Jingzhi, walked in last.
When they walked into Prince Wu's Mansion, they found that the huge Prince Wu's Mansion was empty.
There was silence.
Chen Shenghai, who had always vowed to do so, was a little doubtful when he saw this, whether Zhao Hongming had really escaped.
But then I thought about it, Zhao Hongming's information might not be that well-informed. He had already ordered someone to keep a close eye on him when he arrived.
"Everyone, go inside." Chen Shenghai said with a gloomy face: "I don't believe there is not even a single living person in Prince Wu's Mansion."
They began to walk towards the depths of Prince Wu's Mansion.
Although Prince Wu's Mansion is very large, occupying three streets from front to back, the buildings inside are not very dense, and many places can be seen at a glance.
When they walked outside the martial arts arena, they spotted Zhao Hongming and others.
Someone shouted: "Sheriff, look, they are all over there."
Chen Shenghai looked intently and saw more than forty guards on the martial arts field lined up in two rows.
At the front of the guards, there was a guard standing on each side, each holding a black shoulder armor in their hands.
Zhao Hongming was located between the two guards, opened his arms, and allowed the two guards to wear it.
The jet-colored shoulder armor was extremely delicate, and it was tightly buttoned together with the breastplate that was already worn on him, forming an extremely gorgeous and majestic armor.
In the entire scene, there was only the movement of Zhao Hongming wearing armor.
After putting on the shoulder armor, a guard came forward and knelt down on one knee, and handed a horizontal knife about 70 to 80 centimeters long to Zhao Hongming with both hands above his head.
Zhao Hongming took the horizontal sword with his right hand, looked at County Sheriff Chen Shenghai, and said calmly: "Chief Chen, you haven't come to see me for a long time. You are really rude!"
Chen Shenghai and everyone else were shocked by Zhao Hongming's calm performance.
It was hard for them to imagine that the King Wu in front of them was only fifteen years old.
This momentum actually made them admire him.
Isn't he afraid?
It's a pity that such a person lives in an emperor's family. Otherwise, he would be a tyrant.
Chen Shenghai led everyone forward and said: "So I am here to pay homage to His Highness King Wu. However, my visit this time may not be good news to His Highness King Wu."
Zhao Hongming asked: "Can I survive?"
Upon hearing these cold words, Chen Shenghai's face suddenly became serious, without any joy.
For some reason, his eyelids kept beating, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
But there is just a little Martial King in front of him, what else can he do?
County Governor Chen Shenghai said directly: "No!"
Zhao Hongming stared into Chen Shenghai's eyes and asked, "In other words, you must kill me, or us, today, right?"
"Yes, you must die, otherwise our formation will not be successfully deployed." Chen Shenghai said: "We have paid so much, and we have been waiting for this day."
After hearing this, Zhao Hongming opened his mouth and said with a row of neat teeth: "Great. If this is the case, then I will not have any psychological burden if I kill you."
"What?"
Uh-huh!
A ray of cold light fell from the sky and landed on Chen Shenghai's side.
There was a muffled sound!
A blood flower bloomed beside Chen Shenghai.
Wang Jingzhi felt a chill in his chest. He looked down at his chest in disbelief, and saw a long knife slashing diagonally from his shoulder: "I..."
He didn't even know where the knife appeared from or how it appeared on his chest.
Zhao Hongming said with a ferocious smile: "Knife skills, open the sky!"
Buzz!
An indescribable murderous intent burst out from Chang Dao.
The biting murderous aura stirred up the wind and sand, and the cold wind sprang up.
Wang Jingzhi's flesh and blood body was directly transformed into several pieces at Zhao Hongming's shout, like a bloody lotus blooming quietly.
It rained blood all day, staining his brand new armor red.
Zhao Hongming glanced at him, then the sword in his hand changed and slashed towards Chen Shenghai on one side.
From the time he killed Wang Jingzhi to changing his moves, it only took two or three breaths.
Facing the sudden change, Chen Shenghai was a little confused, and he hurriedly raised his knife to block it.
There was a click.
His saber connected with Zhao Hongming's horizontal sword and broke into two pieces.
Chen Shenghai turned pale with fright and retreated violently, barely able to avoid the fatal knife.
He took four or five steps back before stopping, and asked in surprise: "Are you a martial artist?"
Zhao Hongming put away his sword and said with a smile: "I am not talented. I have only reached the martial arts realm at the age of fifteen, which makes the county governor laugh."
"What!!!"
Chen Shenghai opened his eyes wide, his whole body was shaken with shock, and he was completely speechless.
Fifteen-year-old Wu Danjing?
Even when the immortal way is prosperous, there won't be such monsters, right?
You know, it took him eighty or ninety years to reach the Wudan realm.
In this way, his talent is considered rare in Chenjiazhuang for a hundred years, and he is a genius.
And the fifteen-year-old Wu Dan has been unheard of and unseen since Wu Dan was born.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Chen Shenghai shouted sharply, and an eye-catching white tiger appeared above his head, which was his Dharma form.
"The tiger is coming down the mountain!"
After the eye-catching white tiger emerged, it suddenly became extremely huge, like a cow.
Its eyes were filled with cold light, which stung everyone's eyes.
Everyone present dared not speak.
The wind howled.
The lifelike white tiger with eye-catching eyes walked down from the void step by step and stared at Zhao Hongming.
"Roar!"
It roared fiercely and rushed towards Zhao Hongming.
Then when it approached Zhao Hongming and took a bite, two huge arms appeared in the void, firmly resisting its bloody mouth.
"It's just a tiger! I also have the Dharma Appearance."
Zhao Hongming tried his best to activate the true meaning of immortality.
Blue mist gathered in front of him, and a giant with eighteen hands condensed out.
When the upper body of the giant dharma image was completely exposed, the tiger, which was originally like a cow, became like a cat.
Its two fangs are clamped tightly with two big hands, unable to move.
Sheriff Chen Shenghai's face was numb.
Under Zhao Hongming's urging, the remaining sixteen arms retracted back: "Qianying, Shaoyue Kill!"
Boom!
Suddenly, sixteen arms fell on the eye-catching tiger like a rainstorm, and there was a muffled sound with every blow, which was caused by the martial arts breaking the mountain.
"Ah!" Zhao Hongming's expression was crazy.
boom!
The tiger dharma image of County Governor Chen Shenghai turned into countless brilliance and disappeared in mid-air with a mournful cry.
"You..." Chen Shenghai spat out a mouthful of dirty blood: "Your cultivation is beyond the martial arts realm..."
Zhao Hongming sneered, showing his white teeth: "The second-level martial artist who just broke through is a little higher than you."
The eighteen arms of the Dharma Image suddenly merged into one, turning into a giant hand like a pillar of heaven, and suddenly fell on top of Chen Shenghai's head.
boom!
The ground suddenly collapsed, and a blood flower bloomed on the ground.
The whole place was silent.
Zhao Hongming moved his arm, revealing the flesh and blood inside that had collapsed together.
He turned to look at the other Chenjiazhuang and others, and gave an order to the guards behind him, saying: "Kill them all, leaving no one behind."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
More than forty people shouted in unison, the sound shaking the sky.
When the other Chenjiazhuang warriors saw this, they all turned around and ran away without any intention of fighting.
But how could their speed be comparable to Zhao Hongming's.
I saw Zhao Hongming's figure changing, and not long after, he walked around in front of everyone and slashed out with a single blow.
But twenty low-level warriors fell like harvested rice under the attack from the front and back.
"Your Highness!" After a guard cut down the last warrior, he clasped his hands and said, "What should we do next?"
"Wipe my armor, wait for General Wu and the others."
"yes."
…
Outside Luling City, an army wearing armor rushed forward.
"Everyone must reach Luling City within a quarter of an hour." Wu Qi shouted loudly at the front of the army.
After he issued the order, a messenger began to repeat it in the team, making sure that Wu Qi's words were conveyed to every soldier.
"General Wu has ordered that everyone must arrive at Luling City within a quarter of an hour."
"..."
Ma Chuanping, who was marching with eyes as calm as water, shouted: "Did you hear that? We must get to the city within a quarter of an hour!"
After two months of hard training, his martial arts cultivation has broken through to the fifth level of Kai Mai.
He stood out among the soldiers who entered the same batch and has now been promoted to a corps commander.
"I know, Captain."
As an official for the first time, he didn't know how to manage, so he simply led the rest of his brothers to train hard, and then once there were some reward competitions in the army, he would lead his brothers to fight for them.
After going back and forth, I managed to win a lot of things over and gradually established some prestige.
Starting last week, they had been pulled out of the military camp by General Wu and trained within a few miles outside the city to practice marching and forming formations.
Just when he thought it was another day of training as usual, General Wu suddenly ordered them to turn around and head to Luling City.
Someone familiar with the army said that it was King Wu who summoned him.
They, Wei Wuzu, are about to fight.
Thinking of this, Ma Chuanping couldn't help but become nervous.
