Sun Chaoen slowly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he had returned to the county government office. He wanted to sit up, but his whole body was weak. He felt severe pain in his chest and back just halfway up, and he fell back on the bed.

The county magistrate Ren Youwei was standing guard next to him and said hurriedly: "My lord, don't move! If you move again, the wound will open again!"

"Has General Li sent anyone there?"

"Don't worry, sir, I've already left early in the morning."

"Has General Liao Shen sent troops?"

Ren Youwei hesitated for a moment and then said: "He refused to send troops, but this is also expected."

Sun Chaoen tried to sit up and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Liao Jingwu! This county will kill him sooner or later! Help me up!"

"No sir! You are no match for him now. And if you kill the imperial officials, you will kill the clan!" Ren Youwei was shocked and advised.

Seeing that the county magistrate refused to help, Sun Chaoen gasped: "I can't go even if I want to. I remember that there was an arrow in the ancestral hall, did you bring it back?"

"Just leave it in the hall."

"Cum out, go now!"

Ren Youwei hurried out. After a while, the arrow exploded in the air and lingered for a long time. The message in the arrow was: Wei Yuan is going north, help quickly.

Sun Chaoen sensed the fluctuation of the power of the arrow, felt relieved, and fainted again. At this time, all the personnel were exhausted, and the next step could only depend on fate.

In the military base, Liao Jingwu was serving wine in the back hall again, but the table was a little dull and everyone seemed worried. A captain asked tentatively: "General, this is the third time the county has sent people to urge troops to be dispatched.

.If we don’t move, it will be difficult not only for the imperial court, but also for Taichu Palace. How about sending someone to help?"

Liao Jingwu slammed the table: "That guy surnamed Sun is just a baseless person. He can kill Wang Delu, but he dares to touch me? Just killing Wang Delu is enough to kill his clan! As long as he dares to enter my camp,

I took him down and beheaded him first, it’s a merit but no fault!”

Another person said: "But the Liaoman Snow Eagle Cavalry passed by our military base after all, and we didn't give any warning to the county..."

Liao Jingwu glared at him fiercely. The man shuddered and immediately stopped. Then Liao Jingwu cursed and said: "The county town has not been destroyed, so we have no responsibility. Look at you all acting like a bear. What's the point?"

How scary? I said I wanted the man named Fang to die in an unexplained way, didn’t I do it? As for Sun Chaoen, bah! I’m a member of the Xu family, how can he, a poor man, be able to touch this!"

Thinking of Liao Jingwu's tiger-like wife, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and several people walked in, led by Li Zhi. He glanced at the room and said with a smile: "General Liao is really in a good mood!"

Li Zhi was born in the Immortal Sect, and he was the most prominent person in his family. Although he had never met him, Liao Jingwu had seen his portrait and recognized him. At this moment, the people following Li Zhi had different auras, and they all looked impressive.

I mean, he is obviously not an ordinary monk.

At that moment, Liao Jingwu suppressed his uneasiness, stood up and said, "It turns out to be General Li! Why didn't anyone inform him?"

Li Zhidao: "It's a small matter. I'll leave immediately after saying it. I just thought I would come in by myself without being informed."

"What are your orders from General Lee?"

Li Zhidao: "Two small things. One is to ask General Liao to send troops north to assist my brother Wei Yuan."

Liao Jingwu immediately shook his head: "I can't bear to obey my orders! I, the general, have a heavy responsibility. I have to protect the people of the entire county. I cannot act rashly, and there is no reason to mobilize troops and mobilize a large number of people for just one person!"

Li Zhi took out a piece of military talisman and put it on the table. He took out another letter and slapped it in front of Liao Jingwu. He said calmly: "This is Admiral Zhang's military talisman. This is an autographed letter from your father-in-law of Mount Tai, but the letter probably says

It’s not very nice, you can read it again later. General Liao, do you want to think about it again?”

Looking at those two things, Liao Jingwu broke into a cold sweat. Admiral Zhang was his immediate boss, and his father-in-law was his source of confidence. Seeing Li Zhi take out these two things, how could he not understand what it meant?

?

Liao Jingwu suddenly bowed his head and bowed: "I have no eyes to see Mount Tai, so please punish Master Li! If Master Li does not give up, I will follow you through fire and water from now on!"

Li Zhi showed a faint smile and said: "General Liao is a smart man. From now on, if you follow me, you just need to do good things. Now order the troops to leave the camp immediately."

Liao Jingwu immediately shouted: "Order the troops! Everyone will get half a stick of incense, no one will be left behind, no, fifty will be left to guard the camp! Anyone who is late will be killed!"

Several captains at the table hurriedly went out to order troops, and before leaving, each of them did not forget to salute Li Zhi.

After a while, the horns in the military fortress were blasted, and the cavalry rushed out. After that, groups of elite frontier infantry rushed out, and the army headed north.

In the military column, Liao Jingwu rode beside Li Zhi, looking a little uneasy and said: "Master Li, there are only fifty people left in the camp, just in case..."

Li Zhi said calmly: "There is no such thing as a chance."

Liao Jingwu's heart trembled, and he understood what was more important in Li Zhi's mind between the people of the county and Wei Yuan who was going to help him. But he was even more worried, and said cautiously: "Master Li, I will never offend anyone in the past.

It’s a bit much, and it also offends Mr. Wei, you see…”

Li Zhi naturally understood what he was thinking and said calmly: "As long as you follow me sincerely from now on, I will keep you safe. But those messy things in the past can't happen again, do you understand?"

Liao Jingwu nodded repeatedly, his waist almost breaking: "The general will understand! The general will understand!"

One hundred and fifty miles east of Quyang County, an airship slowly took off, towed the shot down airship, and flew slowly to the south.

In the central pavilion of Wubao, Baoyun was sitting at the head of the table. At the table were all the young talents from various families who had come to help. They all had good family backgrounds and good appearances. At this time, everyone was chatting and laughing, commenting on the affairs of the Western Jin Dynasty from time to time, the current war situation, and everyone.

He is an extraordinary talker and obviously has a lot of stuff in his heart.

Baoyun didn't need to speak, she just sat upright, and the talented people rushed to speak, but how to speak was difficult. She had to have an insight into the current situation, be sharp and concise, and not be wordy. It was best to write every word carefully.

No word should be deleted or edited when it is put on paper. Therefore, each and every one of the talented people worked very hard. This drinking and eating session was more tiring than the sect's exam.

Suddenly an old servant walked into the room, came to Baoyun's side, and said something in detail.

Baoyun's face changed slightly, and she immediately stood up and said apologetically: "Brothers, I'm really sorry, something happened to a friend of mine, and I have to go and take care of him now. Please be patient, I'll excuse you now."

Everyone stood up quickly and said one after another: "We have brought troops and horses. Since it is Miss Bao's friend who is in trouble, it is our business! I will go with Miss Bao!"

Baoyun seemed a little hesitant: "But this time we have to go deep into the Liao Territory, which is very dangerous. I can just go by myself, and you don't have to put yourself in danger."

"What did Miss Bao say? Your business is my business!"

"Since we are here, how can there be people who are greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"Hahaha, if I don't go deep into the Liao Territory, wouldn't it mean that my Daoji will be covered in dust?"

Baoyun saluted and said softly: "In that case, I would like to thank you all in advance. The military situation is urgent. Please follow my army to set off."

After a while, the Wubao opened wide, and thousands of heavily armored crossbowmen walked out of the Wubao and marched toward the Liao region in a mighty manner. There was also a flying boat accompanying them in the sky. After the Bao family's army, various groups came into being.

The team followed suit, and there were more than 3,000 people in total.

With the blessing of the Taoist formation, the army marched slowly but actually quickly, and arrived at the boundary of the Liao Territory in half an hour. The flying boat also followed the army into the Liao Territory, and an exquisite treasure tree appeared on the boat, with bits of clear light shed among the swaying branches and leaves.

Push back the surrounding yellow air.

After walking a few dozen miles in the middle of the Liao Territory, an unparalleled sword intent suddenly came from the south. A flying sword approached from far away, and its power was like electricity! The yellow air was separated by the flying sword like waves, surging to both sides.

Standing on the flying sword is Zhang Sheng, but this time he is no longer bare-handed, but holding a green long sword. The murderous intention is not concealed at all, and it permeates the air!

Zhang Sheng suddenly passed Baoyun's army, glanced this way, and then went north in an instant.

The vast horn sounded on the flying boat, which was a military order to summon the army to advance at full speed. All the heavily armored crossbowmen began to trot, and the exquisite treasure tree on the flying boat suddenly doubled in size, and the light was dazzling, shrouding the entire army in it.

, so the running speed of thousands of troops increased again, actually twice as fast!

They didn't go far when they saw Zhang Sheng standing quietly in the air, as if waiting for something. The bugle on the flying boat sounded again, and thousands of heavily armored crossbowmen spread out horizontally, turned into a battle formation, and slowly moved forward.

On the distant horizon, a black ownerless war horse appeared, blowing like the wind from the south.

In the blink of an eye, the war horse rushed closer, and only then did he see that there was a man lying on the horse's back, with several arrows stuck in his back. His life or death was unknown. At this time, the earth shook, and a line of yellow smoke appeared on the horizon, getting higher and higher, rolling in!

There were countless Liao cavalry figures in the smoke and dust. Each cavalryman was desperately beating his horse and chasing the black horse in front. In the blink of an eye, the smoke and dust were dozens of feet high!

Behind the high wall of smoke and dust, there is a continuous white snow eagle, flapping its wings with only half of its feathers left, and chasing after it quickly. There is still a trace of rain wrapped around its wingtips, and there is a misty black air.

Destruction is uncertain.

The black horse was running, and suddenly it neighed, spewing out the last thin mist, and the last embers on its hooves were extinguished. Its front legs gave out, and it fell to the ground, while the person on its back was thrown far away.

Seeing that Wei Yuan was about to fall to the ground, suddenly a ball of green sword energy lifted him up, cutting off all the arrow shafts, and then Wei Yuan fell into an unusually warm but seemingly fragile arm.

Zhang Sheng knelt on one knee, holding Wei Yuan in one hand, but looked up at the giant snow-capped eagle that had already flown over, and saw a few wisps of rain between the eagle's feathers that had not completely melted away. The sand and dust were already thousands of feet away.

The Liao cavalry who were rushing at the front slowed down when they saw Bao Yun's waiting army. As soon as the front slowed down, the Liao cavalry from behind kept pushing forward. It looked like there were thousands of them at least.

At this time, the horn sounded in the west, and a troop of more than a thousand people appeared, marching in a strict formation. Although this troop is not a world-famous unit like heavy armored crossbowmen, it is also the elite of the Western Jin Dynasty's frontier army. Two of them

The troops moved toward the east and west, eventually stopping the thousands of Liao cavalry who were chasing them.

The giant eagle hovered high in the sky, looking down at Zhang Sheng who was like an ant on the ground, and said solemnly: "Hand over the man in your hands, for the sake of your teacher, I will spare your life!"

Zhang Sheng said: "Who do you think you are?"

Just as the giant eagle was about to become furious, Zhang Sheng swung out his sword!

A winding sword light appeared between the sky and the earth, faint, thin, and faint, from the lower left to the upper right, connecting to the sky. This sword light has no edge at all, but when people look at it, they feel indescribable sadness, just like the moon

This woman has been waiting for someone for years and years, all the time, from birth to life, until her hair is covered with black hair and her temples are like frost, but she still hasn’t waited for that person.

Under the light of the sword, the wind and sand weakened, as if the heaven and earth were mourning together.

Immortal Sword·Li Shang!

The giant eagle stretched out its huge claws and retracted it as if it was struck by thunder, and large pieces of its feathers fell off. It let out a mournful cry, flew to the north without looking back, and disappeared in the sky in an instant.

Zhang Sheng sheathed his sword and thrust the long sword into the ground with his backhand. The shining blade was only half an inch away from Wei Yuan.

"What's going on?" Zhang Sheng asked with a serious look on his face.
