Two hundred and fortieth chapters kill the chicken to warn the monkey
Luoyang, the vast and majestic eastern capital, is boundless, with the city surrounded by mountains and across the Luoshui River.
Looking down from a high position, the large and small city walls cover the Eastern Capital like spider webs, extending in all directions, and dividing the vast Eastern Capital into hundreds of large and small areas.
Countless soldiers patrolled various city walls, wearing helmets and armor, and holding spears. This gave the people of Dongdu a lot of confidence, and also frightened many restless people who were ready to take action, making the storm come.
There was no major turmoil in the Eastern Capital, but it was more stable than usual.
Outside the hundreds of feet high city wall that cuts off the sky and the earth, an endless stream of rebels approached Luoyang, the eastern capital.
Looking down from the city wall, from a distance, it looks like a huge ant colony is restless. The iron-blooded evil spirit is like a dark cloud covering the roof, giving people a sense of depression that "dark clouds are pressing down on the city and are about to destroy it." Even the gentle light is blocked a lot, making it look a bit gloomy.
cold.
After the Xuangan rebels arrived at the city, they did not quickly organize an offensive. Instead, they began to set up camp outside the city. A steady stream of stones, rough wood, etc. were shipped in and they were piled up into a wall visible to the naked eye. The interior was like thousands of flowers.
The military tent in full bloom.
The Sui troops on the walls of Luoyang City did not take much action. They just gathered together to be on guard and closed the corresponding city gates.
Fortunately, there were not many people entering and leaving Luoyang City a few days ago. When the city gate was closed to prevent entry and exit, it did not cause much reaction.
The two sides had a tacit understanding of being on guard against each other, and their actions were somewhat slow and unhurried.
This is the attack and defense of Tiandu!
The Qingtian City Wall of Luoyang, the eastern capital, could not be conquered in a short time even if it was attacked by soldiers. Even climbing to the top of the wall was difficult. Naturally, the Sui army was not in a hurry to defend with all its strength, and the rebels were not in a hurry to approach and attack.
The scorching sun is rising, on the east wall of Luoyang City.
Wu Guogong Wu Xin, who had just summoned Luoyang generals and civilian officials at the Duke of Wu's Mansion to distribute various actions, heard the news of the arrival of the rebels and led his troops to the east city wall.
When Wu Xin arrived, Luoyang ministers such as Fan Zigai, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang, Yang Wang, the prince of the country, had already arrived.
The person who attracts the most attention is Tang Guogong Li Yuan. Not only did he bring his eldest son Li Jiancheng, his third son Li Yuanji, and his fourth son Li Yuanba, but also the White Horse Temple, the Great Buddha Temple, the Pure Land Temple, the Zizhu Gang, the Zixia Temple, the Luoyang Zhao family, and the Luoyang Li family.
There are three to four hundred representatives of the Clan and many other big forces, and there are more than fifty people in the God Refining Realm alone. The momentum is huge.
"See Duke Wu!"
As soon as Wu Xin appeared, Li Yuan and others greeted him solemnly, but some representatives of major forces ignored him.
Li Yuan, who was slightly fat and majestic, was supported by an old man who was half a century old. His face was pale and he looked as if he had not recovered from a serious illness.
"I'm sorry to trouble you all this time, Dongdu!"
Wu Xin ignored those rude people and still bowed his hands politely.
Then he looked at Li Yuanguan and asked: "How is Duke Tang's health? You should rest more in the palace so that you can better serve the country!"
In the assassination operation last night, one of the four demons, the Blood Demon, personally took action and led more than 20 demon sect ancestors and more than 300 demon sect strongmen to assassinate Li Yuan. The battle was fierce.
In addition, there were two of the four demons, the Ghost Emperor and the Yuan Demon, as well as more than sixty ancestors of the Demon Sect and more than a thousand Qi refining experts. The Demon Sect was divided into thirteen groups to assassinate them.
In addition, Yang Xuangan's brothers and subordinates, Yang Xuanting, Yang Xuanzang, Yang Xuanzhang and others acted separately, and together they broke out and attacked more than thirty large and small forces loyal to the Sui Dynasty.
There was a fierce battle all night, and it was not until the sun rose and all the troops came out that the fighting calmed down everywhere.
Duke Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty was slapped in the palm by the flower fairy Qiangwei and the blood demon. He lost most of his life and was seriously injured and fainted on the spot.
Fortunately, Li Yuan himself was a great monk with both civil and military skills, and he avoided the fatal blow. A Buddhist master came to his rescue in time, and he was able to save his life. He showed up only a few hours later, and it was obvious that he had used amazing means to recover so quickly.
!
Fan Zigai was with Yue Wang Yang Tong. However, he was not assassinated and returned to the palace smoothly and safely.
Overnight.
Twenty-one Luoyang power leaders were assassinated, and thirteen forces were wiped out, including two first-rate forces: Shengming Temple and Shengye Sect, and eleven second- and third-rate forces, all of which were die-hard forces of the Sui Empire.
Shengming Temple is a Buddhist temple founded by Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty Yuan Ke. It has been passed down to this day and supports the Sui Empire. It is huge and powerful. It was the Ghost Emperor himself who killed nearly half of the more than 10,000 disciples of Shengming Temple.
They were all killed, the Qi-refining monk was killed, and the temple was burned to the ground.
Shengyemen is the alias of the base of Daye Trading Company of the Great Sui Dynasty, and is one of the two major headquarters of Daye Trading Company. It was Yuan Mo, the leader of the Hehuan Sect, who personally took action. Almost all of his seven thousand disciples were killed, and inestimable wealth and resources were plundered.
lost heavily.
Of the remaining eleven second- and third-rate forces, six are the families of veteran or important ministers of the Sui Dynasty, and five are gangs working for the Sui Empire.
Such a bloody night shook the Eastern Capital and shocked the whole world.
Many forces in Luoyang are in danger, and there is a sense of unrest.
Relatively speaking, the assassination that Wu Guogong Wu Xin suffered was the smallest in scale, with only eight god-refining assassins, which caused a lot of discussion among many forces.
"Ahem! The troops are approaching the city. I have trouble sleeping and eating. Only when you come personally can you rest assured."
Li Yuan coughed dryly, his pale face turned a sickly red, but he responded solemnly and loyally.
After a pause, he bowed and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Wu, for not caring about his own safety and coming to the rescue in time last night, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Such a great kindness, Li Yuan and the Li family will never forget it."
Wu Xin responded with a smile of course: "It's a matter of course! I don't have any family members involved, and I am protected by silver-armored guards, which is safer than a military camp. In this battle in the Eastern Capital, we have to rely on Tang Guogong, and Tang Guogong is naturally the most important!
"
Everyone believed that with the prefecture-level green-grade silver-armored military guards, Duke Wu would indeed be safer than staying in the military camp. No matter how many assassins there were, it would not work and they would only lead to death.
"Hey, right, these are the famous ancestors of Ghost Sword and Snake Sword, right?"
Master Zixia, the master of Zixia Temple, suddenly looked at the two people behind Wu Xin and asked with a sweet smile.
Zixia Temple is the top force in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and represents the righteous path. It is also a first-rate force in the world. It has more than ten thousand disciples and is powerful. There are more than a dozen ancestors of the God of Light, but the details are unknown.
Master Zixia is a great monk in the late stage of god refining. She is quite famous in the world. She has been famous for thirty or forty years, but she still has a good appearance. She looks like a young woman in her thirties. In addition, she has a beautiful and dignified appearance and wears loose plain clothes.
, the curves are exquisite, showing a unique charm and arousing people's imagination.
While smiling softly, Master Zixia showed off her beauty, making people look at her.
Wu Xin nodded towards the two elders, who greeted him politely and said, "I have met Master Zixia, but I have a little reputation. It's not worth mentioning!"
Master Zixia looked at Wu Xin with bright eyes and praised: "Wu Guogong is so talented. Not only did he not suffer any loss, he actually subdued three famous ancestors. Amazing! Amazing!"
"What do you mean? Great monk. Don't you dare to speak out?"
Wu Xin's thoughts changed, he frowned and looked at the people around Li Yuan, his face darkened, he looked at Master Zixia and asked with a sneer.
In the Eye of the Wheel, nearly half of the people Li Yuan led, including Master Zixia, had ill intentions towards him, but they had no murderous intentions. It was obviously the senses and relationships caused by the righteous way, Buddhism, nobles and other camps, which made Wu Xin a little helpless and angry.
.
Duke Wu Guo made the atmosphere stagnant.
Li Yuan glanced at Master Zixia with a look of displeasure on his face. He looked at Wu Xin helplessly and ashamed.
Li Jiancheng frowned and looked at Master Zixia and said hesitantly: "Master"
"It's very simple! Everyone knows that Duke Wu Guo is a guard in Dongdu, and he is a military monster. He is the most critical figure in the outcome of the war in Dongdu. Why did the three demons personally take action in the riot last night, and countless strong men and forces fell, but Duke Wu did not have the slightest
It was not damaged, but there were only eight nameless assassins and no ancestors of the Demon Sect were involved? Could it be that the Demon Queen personally took action but failed?"
Master Zixia asked bluntly with a sneer. She also said with a pointed smile: "It is said that Duke Wu is a true disciple of the Heavenly Demon Palace. Is it because of this? By the way. This is the ancestor of the Eight Elders of the Heavenly Demon.
Is this the Wind-Chasing Ghost King among the four ghost kings? He really has a good trick!"
At the end of the sentence, he looked at Wu Xin's entourage with a sneer.
"Well"
Everyone had different expressions, and some looked at Wu Xin with strange eyes. It is true that many people were so suspicious, but they just didn’t say it outright like Master Zixia!
"Well! Master Tai is right, I am a true disciple of the Heavenly Demon Palace, so what? The Holy Emperor and His Highness the King of Yue have no objections, so who do you think you are?"
Wu Xin smiled slightly, not caring about answering in public. He paused for a moment, looked around the crowd, stared at Master Zixia and others, and then slowly continued:
"Even your master Chunyang Palace! You can't assassinate me by sending out the old dogs of the Yang generation. How can the Demon Sect do it? It would be more effective to assassinate me in the palace! If you want to assassinate me, you will die as many as you come. Shitai thinks
,Are all people in the world as brainless as Master Tai?"
"presumptuous!"
More than a dozen representatives of forces close to Chunyang Palace glared angrily, and a purple-faced old man even shouted angrily.
Chunyang Palace is the leader of the righteous way, and the ancestor of the Yang generation is like a god, so naturally he cannot be abused or slandered!
Master Zixia's dignified and beautiful face froze, and she stared at Wu Xin with a mix of surprise, confusion, shame and anger, and sneered: "Really? What a loud tone! This poor nun thought Duke Wu was a turtle fairy!"
Li Yuan was anxious to calm down. He coughed until his face was as white as paper. He forced himself to explain: "Zixia Temple was assassinated last night, with hundreds of casualties. Two of the master's sisters and a direct disciple were killed. Therefore, he lost his composure.
Please invite Duke Wu"
"Don't need to say more, Duke Guo of the Tang Dynasty. The state has national laws and the military has military regulations. What kind of person am I? Who is Master Zixia? How dare you accuse and doubt me face to face? At this time when we are facing a formidable enemy, we should work together and pay attention! Master!
Too many lies to confuse the public, and no distinction between public and private affairs. If I don’t take action, what will other people think? How can I suppress Dongdu? I am very suspicious that she is an anti-military spy."
Wu Xin looked around at everyone with cold eyes, waved his hand to interrupt Li Yuan's words, and sneered with murderous intent.
After a pause, regardless of the changed expressions of everyone, he ordered Ancestor Jiankong, Eunuch Yang Zhen and others: "Take it!"
"you dare?!"
Master Zixia yelled in shock and anger. The two Masters from Zixia Temple and the two true disciples of Zixia Temple immediately drew their swords in their hands and faced each other with a cold light.
"Wu Guogong"
"Misunderstand"
Li Yuan, Fan Zigai and some power representatives were shocked and advised.
"If you resist, you will be killed without mercy!"
Wu Xin ignored the advice and added in a cold voice, then narrowed his eyes and threatened: "If you dare to fight back, you will be treated as an assassination of me and cause trouble in the Eastern Capital! Zixia Guan is listed as a rebel and will not be spared!"
"you"
Master Zixia, who was about to explode with her martial art, her momentum stagnated, she suppressed her restless breath and glared at Wu Xin.
Is it okay to doubt it?
It's so bullying.
