Three days ago.
Eastern Region, the northern border of Chu State.
"The key figures involved in the 'Kyushu Plan' and King Wu's defeat of Zhou... Haha, yes!" The one-armed old man laughed coldly, "I was also surprised. If the inside story of King Wu's defeat of Zhou hadn't been brought up again, I’m afraid I’m still in the dark!”
"Something happened some time ago that puzzled me." Shadow said calmly, "After the teacher came to the northern border of Chu State, I asked my two disciples to secretly protect the edict of King Zhou, but on the way Someone really came to rob us."
"Oh?" The one-armed old man also became interested, "Can you tell me?"
…
Three days ago.
Eastern Region, the outskirts of Zhao State.
A small procession crossed the fields and galloped away to the north.
"Grandpa, be careful!" The emperor's division changed their formation and surrounded the father-in-law who was delivering the message. The Emperor's guard watched with vigilance as a circle of people suddenly came out.
"We are the emperor's division guard, who is here?" the division guard captain shouted.
"Hahaha! Is the eunuch on the opposite side the eunuch of Great Zhou?" said the leading raider.
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? If you dare to be a eunuch who delivers orders, you should be careful!"
"Hahahaha!" The raiders looked at each other and laughed. "Captain! Don't be confused. Who in the world doesn't know that Zhou Dynasty has been exhausted? Why not join us in Zhoutian Valley and revive the Great Zhou Dynasty together?"
"Thank you for your kindness." The division guard captain smiled softly, "But someone must first hand over the current King of Zhou's mission before talking about joining."
"Hmph!" Zhou Tiangu's raiders suddenly changed their expressions, "If you don't drink a toast, you'll have to drink a fine drink. Brothers, give it to me together!"
"Protect your father-in-law!" The division guard captain clapped his horse and stepped forward to meet the enemy. Fighting in close combat, they are evenly matched!
"Captain of the Division Guard, you are quite capable, but you lead too few people." The leader laughed mischievously, "My men are coming again before half a stick of incense is left, but Captain of the Division Guard , Where are your people? Are they still in Luoyi?"
"Are these people you're talking about? Your people?" A sudden voice came out.
"Who?" The raider jumped out of the battle circle and looked back. I saw two people who looked young, standing in the distance, with human heads tied into a string in their hands.
"That's that?" The raider was distracted and saw the face of a familiar person who died tragically. He was stabbed in the chest by the division guard captain without paying attention.
"Kill them!" shouted the division guard captain.
With an order, the division guards attacked these Zhoutian Valley raiders one by one.
The two people who came to support came over, although the division guard captain was wary. However, due etiquette should still be observed. He held the military salute and asked: "May I ask where you two come from."
"We have been ordered by the master to help you escort the father-in-law." The two men replied.
The division guard captain glanced at his father-in-law and saw that he had no reaction.
The division guard captain said to the two of them: "We accept your kindness, but..."
"Cough cough cough!"
The division guard captain was interrupted by his father-in-law before he could finish the second half of his sentence.
The captain of the division guard glanced at his father-in-law guiltily again. He didn't respond at this time. He could only bite the bullet and continue: "It's just that it's not easy to agree to outsiders protecting the decree. Since the two of you are very powerful and have If you think so, please do so."
"Thank you, father-in-law, and thank you captain." These two people are very understanding of the world.
The division guard captain glanced at his father-in-law again. This time he still didn't respond, but this time, the division guard captain breathed a sigh of relief.
"Father-in-law, captain. These people are coming again soon. There is a gap to the north."
"Then..." "Then break out to the north!" The division guard captain was about to reply, but was overtaken by his father-in-law, so he could only accede to his command.
The group of people broke through to the north and gradually escaped from the encirclement of the Zhoutian Valley raiders.
However, the real crisis is yet to come.
…
"Zhou Tiangu?" The one-armed old man mobilized all the memories in his mind, "I haven't heard of it. Have you heard of it?"
"Me neither," Shadow replied.
"It's strange, there are things that neither of us know..." The one-armed old man suppressed this doubt, "Then, I'm afraid it's not that easy."
…
It is said that this raid started from the beginning and has been endless since then. There are always people coming to harass me at different times. Although they worked together to nip several operations in the cradle, they still lost a lot of manpower. All the way down to the southern border of the Yan Kingdom, except for the two brothers Bo Ling, the captain of the division guard, and the father-in-law who delivered the decree, there were only five division guards left.
"I've met Le Shuai!"
"You're welcome. Father-in-law, please take a seat." Le Shuai sat next to his father-in-law and listened to Birling talk about what happened on the road.
Another Ma Pao quietly took a look at the Zhennan commander - he had a majestic body, a dignified appearance, thick eyebrows like ink, and a burning gaze. The face is as strong as iron, with clear lines, a high nose bridge, and slightly raised corners of the mouth, with a bit of disdain and pride. With a tall figure and broad shoulders, he seems to be able to carry the weight of the entire Yan Kingdom.
Although he was in the camp, he still wore his inner armor, along with his outer armor hanging aside, shining sharply in the sunlight that fell through the gaps in the felt tent.
Le Shuai's fingers were broad and strong, and the palms of his hands were polished into hard calluses. His eyes are deep and bright, and his voice is loud and steady. This powerful aura makes people unable to ignore his presence, and also makes people full of awe and admiration for him.
This is Zhennan Shuai!
After listening to Boling's story, Le Shuai suggested: "You all have had a difficult journey. It is not easy. I wonder if my father-in-law would mind if I assign a few capable soldiers to protect the decree?"
"Haha! Haha!" The father-in-law smiled and shook his head, "In the opinion of the Sa family, it is better not to deploy personal soldiers. How about Le Shuai escorting him personally and supporting the northern border by the way?"
"I'm really sorry." Le Shuai rejected the father-in-law's proposal, "I was assigned by the Marquis to frighten Xiao Xiao here and make it impossible for her to leave."
"What a pity." Father-in-law sighed, "The Sa family has a feeling that you will eventually go north."
"I hope so." Le Shuai frowned, "This is not only a place to intimidate Xiaoxiao, but also the last line of defense that the Marquis wants. Once the Southern Expeditionary Army from the Northern Territory breaks through here, it will be difficult."
"Okay, okay!" After hearing Yanhou's arrangement, the father-in-law also expressed his approval. "This place is backed by the Central Plains, so it is not an exaggeration to use it as the last line of defense."
"Leshuai! I've had enough rest, it's time to say goodbye!" The captain of the division guard got the hint from his father-in-law and said goodbye.
"Okay, you all have important things to attend to. Le Shuai doesn't dare to stay any longer. I hope you all have a safe journey!" Le Shuai stood up and said goodbye to everyone.
"Leshuai, take care."
"Everyone, Mr. Le has something to explain." When everyone was leaving the camp, Mr. Le stopped them again.
"Le Shuai please!"
"You're welcome, father-in-law. Lemou can guarantee that no Xiao Xiao will cross the jurisdiction of Lemou wantonly. However, Lemou's jurisdiction is limited... The jurisdictional capacity is limited... The southern and northern borders of Yan State The distance is not close..." Le Shuai stopped talking, but everyone already understood what he meant.
"The Sa family understands!" The father-in-law waved his hand, "Let's set off!"
One day later, in the territory of Yan State.
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"
"Coming!" Several people are very familiar with this sentence. These days, whenever these people from Zhoutian Valley come over to cause trouble, they will definitely say this sentence at the beginning.
"Hoo!" A sharp voice roared past, and a spear directly penetrated the two division guards.
"Who?" The division guard captain looked at his former comrades saying goodbye so suddenly, his eyes wide open with anger. "Zhou Tiangu! I want you to die without a burial place, I will crush your bones into ashes!"
"You can talk about it if you have the ability! Hahahahahaha! Hahahahahahaha!" People in Zhou Tiangu laughed unscrupulously.
One of the raiders directly fought hand-to-hand with the division guard captain. While fighting, he kept saying: "How do you feel when you watch your own people die one by one in front of your eyes? Our people must have invited you more than once, right?" If you don't drink the toast, you'll have to drink the fine wine. Then I want you to watch helplessly as your subordinates die in front of you one by one. And I also want to see you crying and roaring for revenge for them, but you don't You can’t help but look like us!”
"Die to me! Die to me!" The division guard captain was so stimulated by these words that he lost his mind and took action with anger, but he was still at a disadvantage. This shows how powerful the attacker in front of him was.
"We can't let them pass!" An old man stood up, "After this mountain, we will reach the northern border. There are too many masters over there, and we have to consider and run if anyone comes."
"Elder, don't worry. It's impossible to get by just by relying on them." The raider who fought against the division guard captain said, "Besides, even if the masters from the north really come, we won't be able to defeat them."
"Wenbu, you have to be careful, don't capsize in the gutter." The elder saw the captain of the division guard acting like he was dying, and kindly reminded this capable general.
the other side.
"You go ahead, the Sa family does not need your protection." The father-in-law said.
"Yes!" Brother Bo Ling pushed away and grabbed other Zhou Tiangu members.
"Good opportunity!" The elder looked down at the battle situation from a high altitude and found that the father-in-law was sitting alone next to the carriage, and those who were accompanying him dispersed and were dragged away by Zhou Tiangu's people.
"Go to hell!" The elder suddenly dived, and an unknown fighting spirit broke out. He aimed his fist at the father-in-law's forehead, as if he would be beaten to pieces in the next second.
However, what Elder Ling didn't expect was that a hand gently grasped his fist.
And the owner of this hand is the father-in-law delivering the message.
It’s over! This father-in-law is actually a master who doesn't show off his skills, but now his boat has capsized in the gutter!
The elder was slapped away by his father-in-law's other hand on his chest.
But the elder was not discouraged. He discovered an important thing. The father-in-law actually used all his strength to catch his punch, which resulted in him just being slapped away, but No injuries.
Seeing his father-in-law's slightly trembling hands, the elder became even more convinced of this idea.
So the elder repeated his old trick and swung another punch, heading straight for the father-in-law's Tianling Gai.
"Bang!" A hand gently caught the punch, and the elder took a closer look - it was still his father-in-law's hand!
Another palm was stamped on the elder's chest, and he was slapped away again. This time, there was still no injury, and the flying distance was not that far.
The elder lowered his head and saw the trembling hands of the father-in-law again, and the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely.
They are all old foxes!
