Chapter five hundred and sixty fifth: The death of the monarch
In the dark underground lobby, there were only a few ghost fires, emitting a bleak green light. It seemed like a hellish punishment hall, filled with the breath of death everywhere.
Seeing that Zhao Fan kept bowing his head and silent, Zhao Butian asked, "Brother Fan, are you blaming me for not telling you that the Nine-Turn Huanyang Pill is fake?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fan hurriedly said, "I don't dare!"
Zhao Butian chuckled and reached out to help Zhao Fan up, "Brother Fan, if I had told you the false news that the Nine Turns Return to Yang Dan was false, you would inevitably have flaws when you made peace in the Great Qin Dynasty. On the contrary,
If you always think that it is true that the Nine-Turn Return to Yang Dan will not reveal any flaws. The Fourth Prince Ying Yu is not an ordinary person. Once you have any flaws, he can see them at a glance. So, you understand that I am like this
Did you do it with the intention?"
Zhao Fan nodded and said, "Young Master is wise, I admire you!"
Zhao Butian smiled slightly and patted Zhao Fan on the shoulder, "Brother Fan, it won't take long to go to the Qin Dynasty. Once the king dies, the fourth prince and the eldest prince will definitely fight for the throne. Then, it will be our chance.
!”
"Young Master, but now, the main force of the Great Qin Dynasty is outside the city. Ying Yu alone has led more than 40,000 forwards. This is not the hundreds of thousands of troops led by the eldest prince." Zhao Fan's face was a little worried.
"This time we are in a hurry. If the eldest prince and the fourth prince attack over, with the strength of the Chaos Domain Alliance, it will be difficult to resist!"
Zhao Butian's face was not sad or happy, and there was a faint smile on his lips, "Brother Fan, do you know why I brought so few people to the chaotic domain this time?"
Zhao Fan couldn't help but look at Zhao Butian and guessed, "Does the young master have any other good opportunities?"
Zhao Butian nodded slightly and smiled, "It's not that I have a good opportunity, but that it won't take long for the eldest prince and the fourth prince to withdraw their troops and return. Therefore, there is no need to use the Iron Cavalry of our Shadow Dynasty."
Zhao Fan looked confused and was about to ask the reason, Zhao Butian explained again: "With the nature of the king of the Great Qin Dynasty, since he has obtained the Nine Turns and Returns to Yang Dan, he will definitely be impatient. Now it has passed a few times.
God, if it was not unexpected, within three days, the Qin Dynasty would hear the death of the king." After a pause, he said: "Once the king dies, the fourth prince and the eldest prince who are fighting outside will definitely be there.
The Qin Dynasty will rush back to the first time to fight for the throne, and the Qin Dynasty will also fall into a civil war for this.”
Speaking of this, Zhao Butian stopped talking, looked at Zhao Fan with a gentle look, and asked with a smile: "Brother Fan, do you understand?"
Zhao Fan suddenly realized and nodded, "Young Master is wise, my subordinate understands!"
Zhao Butian smiled and said, "It's good to understand. As long as the Qin Dynasty falls into civil strife, our chance will come!" Zhao Butian's eyes glowed, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"Young Master, will your subordinates return to the Shadow Dynasty now and mobilize the iron cavalry in the country to prepare to attack the Qin Dynasty?" Zhao Fan asked for instructions.
Zhao Butian shook his head, "Brother Fan, you have to understand one thing: there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Once the eldest prince and the fourth prince start a battle for the throne, we can also drag down the Qin Dynasty without spending one soldier.
”
A trace of confusion flashed in Zhao Fan's eyes, and he thought about Zhao Butian's words in his heart.
"The eldest prince and the fourth prince have their own wings in the Great Qin Dynasty, and the strength of these two people is similar. Therefore, if any of them wants to ascend the throne, they must use foreign aid. So, as long as it is at that time,
If our lord contacts them, he will definitely succeed! At that time, the eldest prince and the fourth prince will fight openly and secretly, and we are provoking their relationship. Isn’t this better without a single soldier?" Zhao Butian said with a smile.
Zhao Fan was secretly shocked when he heard this. Zhao Butian's plan was indeed powerful. For the sake of the throne, no matter whether it was the eldest prince or the fourth prince, anything could be done. As long as the Qin Dynasty fell into civil strife, it would no longer be the Shadow Dynasty.
The opponent is here.
"At present, it is certain that the Qin Dynasty is not our opponent, and what we have to worry about is Shu Jun." Speaking of Shu Jun, a trace of anger flashed in Zhao Butian's eyes, "The last time he was injured by him in Litian Valley, if
If you thought that the resurrection spring water could heal the wound, I must have not recovered yet."
Zhao Fan nodded slightly, "This is the self-blame of his subordinates."
Zhao Butian smiled lightly, patted Zhao Fan on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Fan, although you failed this time, you have made a contribution, so you made up for your mistakes." At this point, the topic changed, "But,
The same situation will never happen next time, do you understand?"
Zhao Fan said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, young master, Zhao Fan will never fail for the second time!"
Zhao Butian smiled on his face, "Okay, then you can go down first."
Zhao Fan responded, turned around and retreated.
The chaotic territory, at the foot of the barren mountain. The vanguard of the Great Qin Dynasty stretched for several miles and was very spectacular. In the central army, Shu Jun, Zhou Tianxuan and others sat separately.
"Brother Shu, I will see Ying Yu later. What are you going to do?" Zhou Tianxuan asked with some concern.
Shu Jun shook his head and said, "I don't know how to deal with it. It depends on Ying Yu's reaction. If he really wants to turn against him, then I, Shu Jun, wouldn't be polite to him. If there is room for relief, then
Continue to cooperate.”
Zhou Tianxuan pondered: "Brother Shu, if I asked me to say something, don't tear the face with the Fourth Prince now. After all, your aspects are not perfect. Once you lose the backer of the Great Qin Dynasty, people will definitely be inseparable from you.
”
Luo Jiutian also said: "Lord, Brother Zhou is right. Our strength is not strong enough at the moment. If the Qin Dynasty falls with us, once we join forces with the Shadow Dynasty, we will inevitably be trapped in a passive state. Moreover, the Chaos Domain
The alliance also regards us as a thorn in our eyes and wants to get rid of us so quickly. Therefore, it is better not to turn against the Fourth Prince."
Thinking of the complicated situation in front of me, Shu Jun couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's not me that Shu Jun insisted on turning against him, Ying Yu, it was him that Ying Yu forced me to do this. This time, he could obviously wipe out the army of the chaotic domain alliance, but he
Ying Yu missed this opportunity! I believe everyone knows why he did this!"
After hearing Shu Jun's words, everyone remained silent. This time, Ying Yu's approach was indeed too obvious. Missing the opportunity to annihilate the army of the Chaotic Domain Alliance was obviously to take the opportunity to get rid of Shu Jun.
At this moment, Ye Jianxing ran in from outside the tent and said anxiously: "Lord, the fourth prince Ying Yu is here."
Shu Jun and others understood and stood up to welcome the fourth prince Ying Yu.
A moment later, the fourth prince Ying Yu walked in with a group of guards. When he saw Shu Jun and others, he greeted him with a smile.
Although Shu Jun had long been dissatisfied with the fourth prince Ying Yu, he still showed no expression on his face and smiled indifferently: "Ying Yu is finally here, please sit down!"
Ying Yu smiled slightly, sat down, and apologized: "I'm so sorry, I've been waiting for everyone for a long time."
"It's okay, we are not in a hurry anyway." Shu Jun said with a smile, "Brother, since you are here, let's discuss the next combat plan."
A complex look flashed in Ying Yu's eyes, and then nodded, "Although Zhao Butian came from the Shadow Dynasty this time, he did not bring a few people, so we can completely throw away the threat from the Shadow Dynasty. The only thing left is
The alliance army in the Chaotic Domain.”
Everyone understood the situation in front of them and listened quietly to Ying Yu's remarks. However, except for the gang of generals under Ying Yu, people like Ye Jianxing and others did not listen to what Ying Yu was saying at all.
When Ying Yu finished talking about the specific plan to attack Wanguicheng first, he looked at Shu Jun and asked, "Brother Shu, my brother's army will also arrive soon, so we must conquer Wanguicheng in advance!"
Shu Jun nodded slightly and understood what Ying Yu said. This time, the fourth prince and the eldest prince each led their troops to attack the chaotic domain alliance. After putting aside the purpose of interests, it was the competition between the two of them against the throne. Whoever made great contributions would get it
There will be more support. At present, once the main force of the eldest prince arrives, the fourth prince will miss the opportunity to make contributions. Therefore, Ying Yu can't wait to launch a siege against Wanguicheng.
"I have no objection here. As long as you are ready, we can set off at any time." Shu Jun said expressionlessly.
Ying Yu smiled awkwardly and chatted casually for a few words, but the topic was that he never dared to mention the encirclement and suppression of the chaotic army that day, as if he was afraid of being exposed by Shu Jun.
Shu Jun had no idea, although he wanted to ask Ying Yu why he deliberately missed the chaotic army alliance that day. But he also understood that once he spoke, he would be like tearing his face with Ying Yu. At present, he had made an enemy
Too many, if the pillar of the Great Qin Dynasty is lost, trouble will follow.
Therefore, Shu Jun forced the anger in his heart.
Just as everyone was chatting, a soldier outside the tent suddenly ran in panic, knelt on the ground, and hurriedly said, "Lord, something is wrong!"
Ying Yu ran in without saying hello, and his face was a little unhappy. Ding Qingyang behind him saw Ying Yu's thoughts and shouted: "What a big deal is wrong! The lord is discussing a major battle plan here, there is a
It’s not too late to talk about something later!”
The soldier ignored Ding Qingyang's words and said anxiously: "Lord, bad news comes from the court, the emperor has passed away!"
"What!" Hearing this, the people present changed their faces. Ying Yu suddenly stood up, stepped in front of the sergeant, held the sergeant's shoulders tightly with both hands, and asked in a deep voice: "Bastard!
What are you talking nonsense!”
The soldier was so scared that he trembled all over and said conscientiously: "Lord, my subordinates didn't say anything nonsense. This is the news that just came from the court!"
"Impossible! Impossible!" Ying Yu looked panicked and said to herself: "How is it possible? When I left, my father was fine, how could he suddenly die!"
Shu Jun and others were also confused, and they couldn't figure out why the monarch of the Great Qin Dynasty died suddenly? Could it be that someone was assassinating?
For a moment, everyone here speculated about the reason for the death of the monarch of the Great Qin Dynasty.
