Long Chen explained the trip to White Bone Mountain in detail. After listening to it, the empress and others looked shocked.
"These jade books record the martial saint and the ghost girl?"
Long Chen told about the records of the Holy Guard, Master Ziyun thought that these two jade volumes were.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, I burned those bamboo slips. The writing used by the Holy Guard is from our Central Plains, I can understand it."
"I guess these two volumes are exercises. I can't understand them. I need someone to decipher them."
The owner of Miaoyin felt strange and asked: "Why are the exercises in ghost script and the diary in Chinese characters?"
After asking this question, Long Chen also felt strange.
"Yes, why is this? I'm afraid only the Holy Guard himself knows."
Long Chen didn't think much about it at the time, but now he thinks it's a problem.
However, since the Holy Guard is dead, only Gui Fei probably knows about it.
"That means you don't know either?"
The owner of Miaoyin handed the jade book to Long Chen.
Long Chen smiled and said: "I don't know, but it looks good, so I took it."
The empress put away the skull sword and said: "It should be a good thing, keep it."
After putting away his things, Long Chen asked about the situation in Linhu City.
The empress told what happened, and Long Chen frowned and said, "This is troublesome. I didn't expect Guitai to be willing to abandon Qingren County and go straight to Jinling City."
Guitai's move was indeed unexpected. Long Chen thought that Guitai was reluctant to leave Qingren County.
Unexpectedly, Guitei was decisively lost in the end and led all the troops to attack Jinling.
By taking Jinling, Gui Fei can breathe a sigh of relief again.
"Immediately send troops to attack Jinling. Don't give the ghost a chance to breathe."
Long Chen felt that he must send troops immediately. If Gui Fei allowed his troops to recuperate in Jinling, the attack on the city would be a fierce battle.
The empress nodded and said: "Okay, let's gather our troops and attack now. What about you? Why don't you take a rest?"
Long Chen said: "Let's rest on the road, just find a carriage."
The empress immediately issued an order, and all soldiers and horses immediately gathered and sent out troops overnight.
Long Chen also sent an order to Jin Luo, asking his navy to go down the river from Linjiang City and meet at Jinling City.
Soon, all the troops and horses in Linhu City were mobilized and marched towards Jinling.
...
Jinling City.
Gui Fei led the army to fight back, and the news that everyone was going to be executed spread throughout the streets.
The officials and people were extremely frightened, and they took their families and fled with Li Zhaoliang.
When Gui Fei was in Jinling, he killed wantonly, which caused great psychological shadow to the officials and the people. No one wanted to live under Gui Fei's hands.
The south gate of Jinling City was packed to the brim, with cars, horses and pedestrians walking shoulder to shoulder, stretching for dozens of miles south.
West of the city.
Guitai was sitting in the carriage, while Li Chengdao and Liu Feibai led the troops in front to clear the way.
Because the soldiers were hungry, they continued to loot and commit murder and rape along the way, and the people around them fled.
Liu Feibai ordered a ban, but it didn't work.
Li Chengdao didn't care at all and allowed the soldiers to do whatever they wanted.
The flight continued, and when the army arrived at Jinling City, only more than 400,000 people were left.
He Mengsheng rode back and reported: "Your Majesty, Li Zhaoliang led the people to flee to the old capital. Jinling City is completely defenseless and the city gate is open."
Liu Feibai was a little disappointed and asked, "Is everyone gone?"
He wanted to kill the rebel Li Zhaoliang, but now he has escaped.
Moreover, Li Zhaoliang took away the officials and people of Jinling City, so Jinling was an empty city.
Occupying Jinling has no other use than relying on the city wall to resist Long Chen.
"They're all gone, the streets are empty."
He Mengsheng was also a little disappointed. It was useless to have such an empty city.
Liu Feibai looked at Li Chengdao, and Li Chengdao said coldly: "The rebels still know how to escape! Leave them alone and report to the Holy Son quickly. We will occupy Jinling first."
He Mengsheng immediately reported the ghost fetus, and Li Chengdao and Liu Feibai took the first step.
The west city gate opened, and the streets inside were empty. Some sparrows landed on the street and pecked at the scattered rice grains.
The army marched into the city, and the sparrows suddenly flew away.
Li Chengdao entered the palace smoothly. There were only some eunuchs and maids who were too old to walk, and everyone who could walk left.
These eunuchs and maids had seen the cruelty of ghost fetuses with their own eyes, and they did not want to stay in the city.
Even if Li Zhaoliang is a rebel, he is still a human being, not a ghost, and he will not drink blood and eat people wantonly.
Even Li Chengdao's harem left, and the surviving concubines, princesses and princes all followed Li Zhaoliang.
Standing in the empty palace, Li Chengdao felt disappointed.
Even if he has other plans, even if he no longer cares about this worldly thing.
However, the country that I worked so hard to build now has nothing left.
Finally, I became a loner!
When the ghost carriage entered the palace, Li Chengdao recovered his thoughts and immediately stepped forward to greet him.
The curtain was opened, and the ghost came out of the carriage. Li Chengdao knelt down and kowtowed: "To the Holy Son, Li Zhaoliang took everyone away, and Jinling became an empty city."
Guitai said coldly: "I am not blind. Immediately let the soldiers defend the city and loot the surrounding counties. Long Chen will be here soon."
Gui Fei could think that Long Chen would definitely send troops to chase him. This was a fighting opportunity.
Li Chengdao got up and immediately ordered to take over Jinling City.
The ghost child entered the royal study and sat down, surrounded by dead silence.
The purpose of the ghost fetus' return is to let the army rest for a while, as the final decisive battle is coming soon.
The situation is like this, it is already a losing situation, and there is no point in persisting.
Jinling City is stronger than Qingren County, so Long Chen can only attack the city if he wants to fight decisively.
The surrounding counties and counties are also more prosperous, so soldiers can eat well before fighting.
In this way, Long Chen can be consumed better.
This is the last battle. After the battle, we will return to White Bone Mountain, then return to the snowfield. When the first snow falls in winter, we will lead the ghost tribe to attack the Central Plains.
Of course, before that, the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl must be resurrected.
"What a pity..."
The ghost fetus sighed slightly. After two hundred years of planning, the blood of the dragon and phoenix had matured, but the ghost fetus was powerless to bring the empress and Long Chen back to the ice field.
"Would this traitor have been better off if he had been replaced by another one?"
Gui Fei regretted, he regretted choosing Long Chen as the heir to the Long family bloodline.
If Long Chen's four brothers had been chosen at that time, would it have been easier to control them?
At this point, it was useless to think too much about the ghost fetus, so I stopped thinking about it and leaned on the chair to fall asleep.
The ghost clan rarely sleeps, but the ghost fetus is too tired and was exhausted by Long Chen.
...
Zhennancheng.
Lin Menghan hurried into the handsome man's house, where Ji Xianxian was sitting cross-legged practicing in the backyard, with Xiaoqin protecting the law beside her.
After walking in, Lin Menghan was waiting next to her.
When you are meditating, no one dares to disturb you.
When Ji Xianxian woke up, Lin Menghan reported: "Gang leader, we just got the news that the army of Gui Fei's pro-independence army has captured Jinling, and Li Zhaoliang fled to the old capital."
Ji Xianxian thought for a moment and then said: "Guitai's choice is right. There is still room for maneuver in taking Jinling. If we stick to Qingren County, we will be dead."
"How is the situation over there with Long Chen?"
Ji Xianxian wanted to know what Long Chen was doing.
Lin Menghan said: "King Wu seems to have been away for a while, and he is currently chasing after him with his troops. It seems that he will have a decisive battle with Guitai in Jinling!"
Ji Xianxian asked in confusion: "Been away for a while? Where did you go?"
Lin Menghan shook his head and said: "I don't know. Some time ago, many people suspected that King Wu was not in Linhu City, but no one knew where he had gone."
Ji Xianxian frowned and said, "This dead eunuch is always mysterious."
Lin Menghan asked: "Gang leader, how should we act?"
