Chu Xinfeng accepted the Grand Master's gold medal in disbelief, and all the soldiers in the camp looked at each other in shock.
Seeing that Yangping Pass was about to be conquered, the atmosphere in the camp was ignited, but it was suddenly stopped. What was going on?
Could it be that the grand master is crazy? He is about to be away from home. How can he come back so easily?
Chu Xinfeng scolded the scouts outside the camp: "What happened in the capital of the gods? Why does the grand master's gold medal require me to wait for my master to return to the court? Tell me everything clearly!"
The high-ranking generals in the camp were also furious, and there was a lot of discussion.
"That's right, why should I explain clearly why I suddenly returned to the DPRK?"
"But the Grand Master's order cannot be disrespected. In my opinion, it is better to make preparations and return to the capital immediately."
"Could it be that Cao's army raided the capital of God?"
"What the hell? Cao Jun didn't even leave Yangping Pass. What kind of surprise attack is this? Is it possible that they all flew to the capital of God?"
The herald was covered in blood, and he had come all the way. If he hadn't sat down and his horse was so magical, how could he have persisted until now.
Hearing the dissatisfaction expressed by Chu Xinfeng and the generals, he did not dare to hide anything, and said in detail: "When I left the divine capital, I only saw monsters everywhere in the divine capital, the imperial army rebelled, and
Many sects such as Wanping Sect and Tianji Pavilion are causing rebellion and even besieging the Shenshan Taoist Palace."
As soon as this statement came out, it was simply ridiculous, and every general in the camp could not believe it.
It would be understandable if the Forbidden Army rebelled or the Wanping Sect and Tianji Pavilion took the opportunity to cause chaos, but what happened to the rise of monsters? Where did the monsters come from in the capital of God? Even if there are occasionally some monsters hidden among the millions of people.
, but it is just a little demon, and it is impossible to be on the stage. I am afraid that ordinary strength realm warriors can deal with it, but how can it really harm the city of God?
You must know that in the capital of the gods, there are said to be tens of thousands of warriors in the realm of strength, and the masters are like crucian carp crossing the river.
"It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous! Commander Chu, the day of breaking the barrier is so close, how can we give up halfway? Otherwise, today we will break the Yangping Pass together, and then seek confirmation from the capital of gods to see what happened in the capital of gods?"
The bearded general was very murderous. He had been blocked by Yangping Pass for many days before, so he was the most active in attacking Yangping Pass.
But as soon as he finished speaking, other generals immediately raised objections: "How can this be done? The Grand Master's gold medal is here, do you still want to disrespect the Grand Master's order? If the Grand Master is blamed in the future, who can?
Responsible?"
"My subordinates second the proposal. Grand Master Jin Ling is in front. In addition, as the city of God is currently in chaos, this matter has probably spread to the army. I am afraid that the morale of the army is also unstable. It is unwise to forcefully attack Yangping Pass at this moment."
"Then if we retreat rashly now, I am afraid that it will be in line with Cao Jun's wishes at Yangping Pass. If we want to attack Yangping Pass next time, it will be even more difficult to reach the sky."
All the generals had different ideas, and their eyes focused on Chu Xinfeng.
Chu Xinfeng looked ugly and felt very unwilling.
Finally, through some channels, I learned the true situation of the Yangping Pass defenders. It seemed that Yangping Pass could be breached today. From then on, it would be a vast area. Jizhou was undefeated. It seemed that the capture of Jizhou Mansion was just around the corner. However, it turned out that nothing happened.
To think that something like this happened.
He took a deep breath and said with a livid face: "Recruit troops from each battalion and return to Shendu."
Some generals looked unwilling and said: "Commander Chu!"
Some generals breathed a sigh of relief and clasped their fists to accept their orders.
Chu Xinfeng looked at the unwilling generals and said nothing. He waved his hand and ordered everyone to retreat. Those generals had no choice. After all, the order of the Grand Master's gold medal was greater than the sky, so they all clasped their fists and retreated with the flow.
Go down.
So half a day later, the 50,000 elite Chu troops who had been preparing to attack Yangping Pass all turned around and evacuated towards Shendu.
The defenders at Yangping Pass had excellent reconnaissance and reported the matter back to the pass as soon as possible.
Upon learning that the imperial army was retreating, there was a sudden burst of cheers in the pass.
-------------------
The capital of gods, the capital of gods is under martial law, the imperial palace is under martial law.
The elite of Cao's army controlled the core area. Later, Cao Su incorporated the imperial army formerly under the Grand Master's account, captured a group of generals and replaced them with generals under his own command.
The Forbidden Army was the first military power under Cao Su's control. Cao Su's magical soldiers descended from the sky and dropped 8,000 elite soldiers.
These eight thousand elite troops are the most loyal to Cao Su. With Cao Su taking control of the Forbidden Army, some generals are sent out. After a battle, the most ordinary sergeant can be promoted to a high rank and lead a dozen people.
of soldiers and horses, calculated in this way, the army under his command expanded rapidly and expanded.
Although there may be some hidden dangers of instability, for now, receiving the legacy of Honor Administration is the top priority.
After Cao Su took control of this part of the Forbidden Army, he turned his attention to the Forbidden Army under Feng Yuchan, the people of the Gongwei Division, the Shendu clan, and the power of various sects.
Among them, the imperial army under Feng Yuchan is the strongest and the most harmonious.
Although the remaining forces are large in number, their power is too scattered due to lack of unity, so they are not of concern.
Feng Yuchan showed his die-hard loyalty to the emperor in the palace. After leaving the palace, he returned to his own forbidden army. He was accompanied by people from the Tianyin Sect. Feng Huaner covered his face with a veil and looked at Cao Cao.
After taking a solemn look, he left the imperial city.
Cao Su sneered again and again, occupied the Taishi Mansion, and then summoned everyone from the Gongwei Division to come.
The people from the Gongwei Division met with Cao Su in the front hall of the Taishi Mansion.
The visitors were dressed in a purple bullfighting suit, a white python suit, and a horizontal sword. All of them had solemn faces. After seeing Cao Su, they all saluted, but their faces were very sad.
"Secretary of Guards Jiang Qi has met the general."
"Gu Zhenxiao, the head of the Imperial Guard, has met the general."
"Secretary of Guards Tang Jiu has met the general."
The Gongwei Division pointed to three towns, but only three people came because the original governor of the Suppressing Evil Division had died in today's war, and these three people turned out to be Cao Su's old acquaintances.
In the past, when Cao Su first came to the capital of the gods, he had served in the Guards Department. At that time, let alone the commander Jiang Qi, even the governor Tang Jiu was a figure that Cao Su needed to look up to.
Today, all three of them came to greet Cao Su and lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at Cao Su.
Jiang Qi is a first-class martial artist. During the chaos in the city of God, Jiang Qi deliberately "disappeared" and did not directly confront the Grand Master. In this way, even if the Grand Master blames him in the future, Jiang Qi will only "neglect his duties."
The crime is not a direct rebellion like Gu Zhenxiao and Tang Jiu.
This can be regarded as a way to preserve the Gongwei Division, although Jiang Qi himself believes that whether the Gongwei Division can still exist today is probably just a matter of Cao Su's words.
Gu Zhenxiao and Tang Jiu were second-grade warriors, and there were many talents in the Guard Division, including many masters.
Cao Su glanced at the faces of the three people and finally settled on Tang Jiu: "Tang Zhenfu, long time no see."
Tang Jiu raised his head, his cold eyes dim for a moment.
The young man on the high platform was dressed in black brocade clothes, with an evil sword across his waist. Although he was just sitting there casually, the fierce and evil aura emerging from his body gradually overlapped with that of the stern young man from before.
Tang Jiu slightly cupped his hands. He was not good at words, so he couldn't say anything concise this time.
Cao Su was also used to Tang Jiu's state. He still knew many people in the Guards Division. After exempting the three of them from the etiquette, he asked: "Where is Li Chengren Qianhu? In the past, Li Chengren Qianhu was my boss.
Boss, I did a lot of things under Li Chengren Qianhu, and from that time on, I gradually felt the undercurrent of Shendu."
Jiang Qi said: "Li Chengren has broken through to the third level of the strength realm and has been promoted to deputy governor. It's just that he was injured in today's battle and has now returned to the Gongwei Division for treatment."
Cao Su nodded: "Li Qianhu is not young anymore. I didn't expect that he could go one step further and enter the third level of strength realm. This shows that the way to practice martial arts does not depend on age. The key is whether he can still
With the power of courage that is as weak as the realm of Qi and blood, if you always protect this original intention, you can always make progress bravely, no matter how old you are."
】
Since Cao Su is now at the half-step profound realm and has reached the highest level of combat power in the world, it is natural that he should make some comments about himself like this. After hearing this, several people nodded frequently, obviously approving of it.
Cao Su asked again: "What about Ding Yan, Qiu Bai, He Shan and others? These good brothers are all like me, starting from a young age, but I later had other encounters and lost some contact with them.
."
This kind of thing is normal. Although the relationship was good at first, if there is no contact, as time goes by, the familiar people will eventually become strangers, especially the general relationship between colleagues.
Cao Su asked about the situation of his old colleagues. Several leaders fell silent. Jiang Qi said: "Ding Yan has been promoted to Qianhu. He is alert and has excellent martial arts. Now he has entered the fourth level and is only a hair away from breaking through to the third level.
, if you can step into the third-level realm, you are expected to become the new deputy governor."
"Qiu Bai and He Shan were transferred to the Forbidden Army the year before last, and then participated in the mutiny in Shendu. Finally, they were transferred to the Western Army. They are no longer in Shendu."
In short, everyone has their own circumstances, and Ding Yan is relatively the best developed.
After getting to know each other several times, the relationship between the two people no longer seemed so strange. After all, Cao Su was someone who had worked in the Archguard Division before. Jiang Qi inevitably felt a little more eager.
Cao Su looked at Jiang Qi and smiled slightly: "Master Jiang, now Rongzheng Rongsheng and his son have been executed, and the cancer of the Rong family that poisoned the court has been uprooted by Cao. Although the city of God has suffered from war, I believe that as the imperial army gradually takes control of the city,
Everything is safe, and the capital of God will soon be able to return to its former glory as an imperial capital, what do you think?"
Cao Su said "What do you think?" and said with a smile. For a first-class warrior who has been strong for several dynasties and has mastered the artifact of the Archguard Division for many years, Cao Su is also quite afraid. If he can conquer it directly, it seems to be the best.
the result of.
Jiang Qi was silent, it was true that Cao Su defeated Rong Zheng, but today Cao Su sealed the imperial city.
News has come from outside the imperial city that Cao Su refused to worship the emperor when he saw it, and that he used words in the Qianyuan Palace to force the emperor, just like another "grand master" posturing.
How unfortunate the Tian family is... Jiang Qi felt bitter in her heart. He was a martial artist single-handedly promoted by Emperor Daozong, and he was the most loyal to Emperor Daozong. But now, how many years has Emperor Daozong been dead? Rongzheng is like this
, the same is true for Cao Su. Is there no loyal minister in the world?
He was shouting in his heart, but his face still softened. He brought Gu Zhenxiao and Tang Jiu here today with this hope: "General, the Guards Division has the responsibility of guarding the divine capital. Today we are going to
The general defeated the Grand Master, but the city of God was also shattered. The Guards Department must abide by his duties and protect the health of millions of people in the city of God."
After he finished speaking his high-sounding words, Cao Su couldn't help laughing.
Are you still defending? The city of God has been defended to such an extent that you still have the nerve to defend it?
Several people didn't know why Cao Su was laughing, but it didn't feel like a good thing. They all stood there with uneasiness, neither advancing nor retreating.
Cao Su paused for a moment and then said calmly: "In my opinion!"
"There is really no need for the existence of this Archguard..."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three people in the hall suddenly changed.
Although he knew that he might not be able to get a good result by coming here today, he really didn't expect that in less than three sentences, Cao Su had already begun to express his intention to "liquidate" the Gongwei Division.
It's so straightforward, leaving no trace of past feelings.
If the Arch Guard Department is gone, then where will the officials who serve in the Arch Guard Department go in the future?
The three of them felt bitter in their hearts, but they had already prepared enough psychological preparations when they arrived. After Cao Su suggested something, the three of them were stunned and did not utter a word of objection. They just lowered their heads to restrain their ups and downs.
Heartbeat.
Cao Su was obviously slightly surprised when he saw the three of them being so calm.
There are many talented people in the Arch Guard Division. If he wants to take charge of the divine capital in the future, the Arch Guard Division will inevitably come to appease the demons and slay evil spirits. However, the current authority of the Arch Guard Division is too great, and it even takes up part of the Imperial Army's authority. This is what Cao Su wants to divide.
The place.
He said in a deep voice: "I intend to separate the Tianwu, Jingyao, and Zhenxie divisions of the Archguard Division, and reorganize the Archguard Division. What do you think?"
The three of them originally thought that the Gongwei Division was going to be gone by reorganizing the Gongwei Division instead of directly eliminating it. However, Cao Su's words turned out to be exactly what he meant.
Jiang Qi's face remained as usual, showing no emotion: "The General is in charge of the Divine Capital. The Guards Department is the yamen that protects the Divine Capital. The General naturally has the authority to reorganize it."
The general has the power to open a government, but not to change the system. Jiang Qi's implication is that Cao Su is the same as the old Rong Zheng. Now that he has control of the court, it is up to him to change it in any way he wants.
Cao Su found three people. He originally thought that the three of them would at least oppose him, but he didn't expect that the people in the Gongwei Division would be so well-behaved.
This made him feel slightly wary. These people from the Imperial Guard were very good at hiding their emotions, and the fact that they could survive under Rong Zheng for such a long time was enough to prove this.
As a result, Rong Zheng was stabbed in the back at the most important moment, which Cao Su took warning from.
If you want to control the Gongwei Division, the three divisions must no longer be mixed into one. The three divisions should be separated. Cao Su directly intervenes in the Gongwei Division, and Jiang Qi is transferred to other positions. This is the most correct approach.
I just don’t know if Jiang Qi is willing to help him take charge of the Arch Guard Department?
Cao Su narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that it would be a good idea to kill Jiang Qi. The essence of a first-class martial artist was also very precious to him now.
Looking at Cao Su's unpredictable eyes, Jiang Qi's heart trembled slightly and she lowered her eyes.
He is a person who is good at protecting himself wisely, but Cao Su and Rong Zheng seem to be very different, which makes his move of retreating in order to advance seem to have no effect.
