Chapter 157: Tianwu Soldiers (Part 2)
On the Black Python Ridge, Ximen Hong, who looked about thirty years old and looked very young and handsome, stood on a huge rock like an eagle's beak with his hands behind his hands.
The huge rock stretched out ten feet from the mountain. Standing on it, the mountain wind roared, making his official robes rustle.
He was accompanied by a veteran wearing immortal armor. He held his helmet in his hands. His beard and hair were gray, his face was old, and his face was covered with the ravines of the years.
"Sir," the veteran general said worriedly, "I didn't expect this Song Zheng bandit to be so arrogant and bold, overstepping the ancestral system and forming a fighting beast cavalry without authorization.
The Tianwu soldiers trained by General Mo will not be said to be the strongest soldiers in the world, but they can at least be among the top three. Facing any army in the world, General Mo will be confident of winning. However, fighting beasts and riding horses should not be counted at all.
I'm trying to build an army, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand it."
Ximen Hong smiled and comforted him and said: "Old General Xi, there is no need to be depressed. Regardless of victory or defeat, I have seen the ability of the old general. The opponent is a fighting beast and a knight. Even if you lose, it will be an honor."
You see, these three thousand heavenly warriors were able to hold their ground in the face of such a powerful fighting beast cultivator. Although their momentum was suppressed, their morale did not collapse, which is already very rare."
He smiled slyly and raised a jade talisman. The jade talisman's light flashed into the sky and disappeared.
"I will record this battle truthfully and hand it over to the Chief Assistant. Song Zheng dared to form a fighting beast cavalry. He is really impatient. It seems that his previous victories have made him arrogant.
"
General Xi thought for a while and felt a little distressed: "But it is not easy to train these three thousand soldiers."
"Hahaha." Ximen Hong laughed: "As long as we can kill Song Zheng and bring down Xiao Zhen, what do these three thousand heavenly warriors mean? In the future, the Chief Assistant will reuse my officer, and I will provide the funds. Please ask General Xi to train three more soldiers.
Ten thousand warriors from all over the world will conquer the world for me, Hongwu!"
General Xi lowered his head and said no more, but his mood was not high. What he felt sorry for was the lives of the three thousand Tianwu soldiers he had trained by himself, while Ximen Hong didn't care about their life or death, he only wanted to make meritorious deeds.
At the foot of the Black Python Ridge, Song Zheng raised his hand, and the advancing beast-fighting knights came to an abrupt halt. None of the Celestial Silkworms and Thunder Tigers took another step.
General Xi was a real expert at Black Python Ridge, and it was terrifying to be able to train a cavalryman to such an extent.
Song Zheng shouted from a distance: "Ximen Hong, come out and answer."
Ximen Hong stood on the spot, used his spirit energy to activate his voice, and sent it out from a distance: "Long Yiwei is the patrol envoy of the five states south of the Yangtze River. Mr. Song has such great official power. It's a pity that I am the state pastor of the five states south of Lingnan, and I am not the governor of the five states south of the Yangtze River."
Within the jurisdiction.”
He refused to give in, and asked again: "Sir, Mr. Song, you brought the fighting beast warriors to attack fiercely. Do you really think that Xiao Zhen can cover the sky with one hand, and the court will not know about your evil deeds in the south of the Yangtze River? This is a privately formed fighting beast cultivator.
Riding, the nine tribes should be punished for the serious crime!"
Song Zheng was too lazy to talk to him and just asked: "I, Tonghaiwei, discovered this place first. I also informed Yuzhou Longyiwei that I want to handle it personally. Ximen Hong, what is your purpose of seizing it?"
Ximen Hongli said confidently: "This place is also under the jurisdiction of our Yuzhou. I certainly have the right to explore the cause of the turmoil in the void. Such a major matter is related to the national economy and people's livelihood. I am the state pastor, so it is my duty to do so."
Mr. Song, on the other hand, according to past practice, whoever comes first will be in charge. Your Excellency, you should go back quickly and think about how to save your life under the emperor's wrath, hahaha."
Anger flashed in Song Zheng's eyes like thunder and lightning: "Ximen Hong, I think these three thousand state soldiers are elite. Training is not easy. It is the time for our government to employ people. These strong soldiers should not be wasted in internal fighting. They should be pulled away."
Let’s have a showdown with the enemies of Huaxu!”
General Xi couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this. He deeply agreed. It was a pity that he had been frustrated all year round and had no chance to display his talents until he was under Ximen Hong's family. It was really helpless.
"Hahaha, Long Yiwei is notorious, Sir Song is also worried about the country and the people?" Ximen Hong was unmoved and said sternly: "Master Song, there is no need to be pretentious. I will never give in. Sir, either you will follow me
If you step over the corpses of elite soldiers from the state, you can either go back to Huzhou City and find a way to save your life."
In the sky, there is a jade talisman that truthfully records everything that has happened. Ximen Hong wants to take credit from the chief minister for this matter, so he speaks excessively from beginning to end to show his hostility towards Song Zheng and Xiao Zhen.
The jade talisman in Song Zheng's arms moved. He glanced at it and felt calm in his heart. He felt that this was all he could say. He waved his hand forward, and five hundred fighting beast warriors rushed forward.
Ximen Hong was secretly happy, but on the surface he looked nervous: "Song Zheng! You are invading Yuzhou. Do you understand the seriousness of your actions?"
In the same dynasty, if there is a war between different vassals, the party that provokes the war can be regarded as a rebellion!
Ximen Hong wanted to convict Song Zheng of this crime, and he also secretly formed a fighting beast cavalry, so he was really dead this time.
Song Zheng and Xiao Zhen are the chief thorn in the side, and this time they can successfully eliminate one of them and hit the other hard, which is definitely a great achievement.
Song Zheng just said calmly: "It's because you disobeyed the government orders, so I led the army to attack you, a traitor."
Ximen Hong was stunned: "Song Zheng, are you crazy? I am in the five states of Lingnan, and I am not your subordinate in the south of the Yangtze River. Your crime will not fall on me in any case. All the princes in the court have bright eyes.
Mr. Fu is clearly aware of the situation, so you can't even think of using such a lame excuse to get away with it."
Song Zheng laughed and said: "You are not well informed. Just now, His Majesty has decreed that Yuzhou will be included in Jiangnan. From now on, there will be six states in Jiangnan and four states in Lingnan."
"Nonsense!" Ximen Hong rebuked loudly. This kind of change of the rule is not a trivial matter. Usually, no matter what the purpose is, this kind of thing will be discussed repeatedly in the court for a long time before finally making a decision. Moreover, this kind of decision
Often the status quo remains unchanged.
Although there is no such thing as Song Zheng in the five Lingnan states, the division of Yuzhou from Lingnan into Jiangnan did not affect anyone's interests, but it was a big deal after all. How could the decision be made so quickly?
His first reaction was that Song Zheng was "talking nonsense", but soon, a special jade talisman in his arms vibrated slightly and emitted light.
He avoided the eyes and ears of everyone, turned around and took out the jade talisman: "Sir?"
The voice of the Chief Assistant came with a hint of helplessness: "His Majesty just made a sudden decree to include Yuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. I was caught off guard."
"Ah?!" Ximen Hong was horrified, it turned out to be true!
What the hell... He almost cursed. What was going through the emperor's head? How could he decide such a big matter with just a slap on his head?
"Don't worry, I will find a way to transfer you away from Yuzhou. But during this period, remember not to conflict with Song Zheng. He is cunning and cunning, and you will suffer a loss."
The Chief Assistant was busy with official duties, so he cut off the call after explaining everything clearly. Ximen Hong was so shocked that he had no time to say more to the Chief Assistant: There was already a conflict...
He turned around and looked at Song Zheng below, gritting his teeth even more: So what? You are also accused of privately forming a fighting beast cavalry!
He couldn't figure out how Song Zheng did it. In such a short period of time, he asked the emperor to issue an edict to include Yuzhou in Jiangnan. However, as long as he caught Song Zheng's crime, he still had a chance to make a comeback.
But he didn't dare to fight any more, so he took the jade talisman and retreated quickly: "Song Zheng, if you privately formed a fighting beast cavalry, I will go to the chief assistant to sue you!"
Song Zheng has already issued an order: "The Yuzhou army will listen to the order and step aside, and shall not block the Longyi Guards' beast cavalry."
General Xi looked at Ximen Hong, who gritted his teeth and said, "Hold on!"
He collected the jade talisman and hurriedly sent it to Lord Chief Assistant through the spiritual formation.
Song Zheng saw what he was doing, but did not stop him. After he sent away the "evidence" and closed the spiritual formation, he gave the order: "Rush over, don't hurt their lives."
Li Sanyan responded, and the Fighting Beast Xiuqi stepped forward. Although the Tianwu soldiers were powerful, they could not break through the defense of the Fighting Beast Xiuqi. The knights turned their Qiyun guns upside down and used the gun barrels as sticks to beat them all the way. The Tianwu soldiers fought bravely.
, they were all knocked unconscious in the end.
Song Zheng rose into the sky and faced Ximen Hong. He put his hands behind his back and sneered in mid-air: "Ximen Hong, do you know why you wasted ten years in Jiangnan and remained just a small county magistrate?"
Ximen Hong was angry: "Because there are too many treacherous ministers like you and Xiao Zhen in the court, which blocks the advancement of good ministers and capable officials like me."
Song Zheng shook his head: "Because you are too stupid to see the truth. Do you think you can bring me down with the crime of privately forming a fighting beast training?"
"This is a capital crime. The evidence is conclusive. You can never escape!" Ximen Hong firmly believed.
Song Zheng sneered and said, "I'm waiting for the imperial court to issue an order to ask me about my crime."
The special jade talisman in Ximen Hong's arms vibrated again. He immediately connected the phone and asked for credit: "Did you see it, sir?" Sir Shofu did look at the virtual image he had just sent and asked cautiously: "With Song
Are Zheng’s fighting beast warriors fighting against your people?”
"Exactly, the Tianwu soldiers who have been trained painstakingly by the lower official are not afraid of his beast-fighting skills." Ximen Hong naturally took the credit for General Xi's contribution to himself.
Lord Chief Assistant asked again: "Song Zheng is in front of you?"
"Exactly, please present the evidence to Your Majesty. Song Zheng violated the ancestral system, secretly amassed private soldiers, and plotted against evil..."
Lord Chief Assistant interrupted him and asked: "Do you know how many people in the entire capital raise and sell riding animals? You don't know, right? I tell you, there are three medieval aristocratic families, two royal families, and one ancient aristocratic family.
Do you think, as you said, I reported Song Zheng to Your Majesty, forcing all these forces to turn to Xiao Zhen, and then join forces to deal with me, what will be the final result?"
Ximen Hong was shocked. He didn't expect the situation in the capital to be like this. He was speechless and could not speak.
The sound transmission of the First Assistant was cut off, and the special jade talisman shattered with a soft snap. Ximen Hong was desperate. The broken jade talisman was obviously done by the First Assistant, which meant that he had been completely given up.
