The shouts outside suddenly stopped, and Shi Sheng's roar stopped. The three masters and apprentices who were being held in prison stared blankly at the command arrow stuck in the grass.
The monks from the Three Kingdoms of the West who caught the three masters and disciples were also stunned and stared at the command arrow.
Anyone with a little bit of common sense knows what this command arrow means when thrown, make a decision!
The swordsmen and axemen who often accompanied the army immediately rushed from both sides.
"master!"
"master!"
The hair on the hairs of the two capable disciples stood up in shock, and they screamed again and again, alerting the slightly confused master.
Shi Sheng was really confused. Shang Chaozong dared to kill him? It wasn't until his ears reminded him that he looked away from the arrow and spotted the sword and axe-hand rushing towards him.
A group of figures flashed before his eyes, and the swordsman and axe-hand had snatched people away from the monks from the Three Kingdoms of the West.
It was also the monks from the Three Kingdoms of the West who let go. After letting go of the three masters and disciples, they all stepped back. They were not gloating about the misfortune, but were confused and confused. This was the elder of Xiaoyao Palace. How dare Shang Chaozong kill him?
In an instant, the three masters and disciples were forced to kneel on the ground, and their heads were pressed down.
Shi Sheng finally realized what was going to happen. He never dreamed that this day would come when a dignified monk would die at the hands of a bunch of ants. His eyes were about to burst, and he finally let out a sad and angry roar, "Shang Chaozong, you ant villain, what do you want to do?
?I order you to let go immediately..."
The shouts suddenly stopped, and the military orders came like a mountain. The axe-hand swung his sword and chopped without hesitation. When he raised the sword and dropped it, three streams of hot blood spurted out. The green grass was sprayed with bright red, and three good heads fell in full view of the public.
land.
"Hiss!" I don't know how many people took a breath of cold air.
The monks from the Three Western Kingdoms were all stunned and stayed where they were.
In the tent, Huang Lie's face was twitching non-stop. A person of Shi Sheng's level, who could usually be treated with respect by anyone who came to Dachan Mountain, was actually beheaded by Shang Chaozong like this. It's really
Beheaded?
What was more in his mind was that he was going crazy. Who gave this person such courage? If Niu Youdao was not around, Xiaoyao Palace wouldn't think it was his Dazenshan who was backing him, right?
Ga Miaoshui's eyebrows were raised high for a long time and he couldn't put them down. His eyes gradually moved to Shang Chaozong's face. He wanted to stop it before, but then gave up after thinking about it. The conflicts between the three major factions here are very important to the court.
Not a bad thing.
But the shock in his heart was still indescribable. He was thinking, if it were your Majesty, would you dare to do this?
Sitting in a wheelchair, Meng Shanming lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes in silence, sighing secretly, as expected, like father, like son.
Feng Ruonan, who was standing nearby, slowly turned back to look at Shang Chaozong, her heart beating wildly. Today she had truly experienced what it meant to be decisive in killing!
Gongsun Bu, who was standing in the corner, was also secretly frightened.
"Send your head to Su Qitong!"
Shang Chaozong made a deep sound, causing everyone to come back to their senses one after another.
Someone immediately took away the three heads outside the tent, and the bodies were also taken away and disposed of.
Inside the tent, Shang Chaozong issued another military order, "Twelve military orders, issued every three hours, until all groups of people execute them!"
…
In the military tent of Haozhou Army, three trays covered with white cloth and stained with blood were delivered to Su Qitong.
Looking at the three sergeants from Nanzhou and the trays in their hands, he knew that the trays contained heads, but he didn't know who they belonged to.
He was not a person with stage fright, nor would he show it. He slowly approached and reached out to lift the white cloth off the middle tray.
It was okay if I didn't expose it. When I opened it, I couldn't help but widen my eyes and blink. Finally, with an "ah" sound, I stepped back in shock and bumped into the desk behind me.
"You..." He looked pale and pointed at Shi Sheng's head, really not knowing what to say.
He never expected that Shang Chaozong would follow his example and kill Shi Sheng. Shang Chaozong was clearly warning him, and this was a lesson learned from the past!
Shi Sheng said earlier that he was going to make Shang Chaozong look good, but he came back with only his head.
Not long after, the heads of the three sects guarding Haozhou heard the news and ran over to admire the three heinous heads.
There were still a few Xiaoyao Palace disciples here who were even more angry and yelled, and ran out, shouting that they wanted to settle accounts with Shang Chaozong.
However, after running out of the camp here, he did not dare to go to Shang Chaozong after all. They even killed Shi Sheng, why are they still afraid of them?
All that is left is to urgently report to the division.
…
"The prince killed Shi Sheng?"
In a valley far or near from the Nanzhou army, Niu Youdao, who was standing under a big tree with a sword, turned around and asked in surprise.
In fact, he has been following the people of Shang Chaozong, but he has always kept a distance and has not been openly with Shang Chaozong. I don't know what he thinks.
Regarding the news in the army, he has always been informed in detail through people in Wuliang Mountain. They are not far away and can grasp the news at the first time at any time.
Guan Fangyi also had a look of surprise and uncertainty on her face. She flashed the paper in her hand and said, "The news from Gongsun Bu said this. Master Dao, is this prince confused? The elders of the three major sects are the ones who can act rashly."
?"
"Confused?" Niu Youdao chuckled, looked at the other side of the valley, and sighed, "Our prince is not a confused person. It is reported that when he was first released from prison in the capital, he suffered all kinds of humiliation on the streets, but he could always
He kept silent, and after leaving the city, the rescue troops came, and he immediately decisively killed the general who was guarding the city with his sword!"
Looking back at Guan Fangyi, she smiled again: "That was in the capital, just because Shang Jianxiong had a low eyelid! The Nanzhou Incident, when Feng Lingbo seized power, was also under the control of Tianyumen, and again under Tianyumen's control
In front of his eyes, he did not hesitate to shoot Feng Lingbo's son. He had never been afraid! Is it strange to kill Shi Sheng? It is not strange at all, because he knows very well that under the current situation, it is impossible for the three major factions to do so.
What to do to him, and the three major sects will be the first to suspect that I am supporting him. I will stop him when he comes! Our prince assesses the situation and makes decisive decisions. He knows as clearly as a mirror.
, I’m never vague when I shouldn’t be, and I have a royal demeanor!”
Guan Fangyi frowned: "You mean..."
"Alas!" Niu Youdao looked back into the distance again, "Uncle Shang Jian could gather so many talented people around him to serve him, how could he have no means? A dragon will give birth to a dragon, a phoenix will give birth to a phoenix, and a son born from a mouse will.
Drilling, coming from a family like that, seeing and hearing about it, how can you not be affected by it?"
…
In the Jin Palace, Shao Pingbo, dressed in a silver fox fur, walked into the palace. He found that there was no expression on Tai Shuxiong's face, so he stepped forward to salute.
Tai Shuxiong signaled his displeasure, and with a wave of his hand, Tao Lue presented a memorial to Shao Pingbo.
After looking at the expression on Tai Shuxiong's face, Shao Pingbo was suspicious of the content of the report. When he opened his eyes to watch, his pupils suddenly shrank and he murmured, "Not the rebels, only the princes..."
"
Tai Shuxiong sighed: "Yes! We don't suppress the rebels, but only suppress the princes. This Nanzhou strategy is really extraordinary. With Nanzhou's execution ability, this strategy will definitely work. It seems that the chaos in Yan is not far away.
I really don’t know if those companies can still fight.”
Shao Pingbo closed the report and looked up, "Your Majesty wants to withdraw the monks from Jin?"
Taishu Xiong nodded, "I asked you to come here just to talk about this matter. This is what the lonely king has in mind."
The reason here is very simple. The Yan State cannot be allowed to quell the rebellion too quickly. Otherwise, the purpose of sending troops to Han and Song Dynasties will not be achieved, and the purpose of Zhao State's intervention will not be achieved. In the end, it will affect the purpose of the Jin State.
Now that the Yan State is gaining momentum in suppressing the rebellion, how can the Jin monks continue to help?
Shao Pingbo did not agree with this, "Your Majesty, I think we can't withdraw yet."
Tai Shuxiong said, "Tell me what you think."
Shao Pingbo: "Withdrawing people now will easily reveal Jin's intentions, which will alarm several parties and give up. Don't withdraw people, but you can do the work without putting in effort, and just act perfunctory."
Tai Shuxiong pondered, "How can I avoid being seen through this way?"
Shao Pingbo: "I can find an excuse. I was fooled by several princes of the Yan State before, which caused heavy losses to the Jin State. I have lingering fears and keep it secret."
"Yeah!" Taishu Xiong nodded, "This is a very good plan!"
As everyone knows, Shao Pingbo has other plans in his heart. The Jin monks have already won the trust of the Yan State. Some of the manpower is with the Shang Chaozong. As long as the manpower is left there, once there is an opportunity, he can wait for an opportunity to get rid of the Shang Chaozong.
Mengshan Ming.
When leaving the palace, Shao Pingbo, who was walking quietly in the palace square, felt a little conflicted. The sudden attack from Nanzhou disrupted his plan. For him, the loss of Jin monks was still too little, but
The changes in the situation forced the Jin monks to start to stop.
However, the subsequent changes in the battlefield situation made the Jin monks' intention to stop in vain. It can also be said that it did not play any role. The change in the situation was even beyond everyone's expectations.
After Luoxialing was breached and the Haozhou troops formally launched an all-out attack, the rebels suddenly retreated rapidly in the face of the offensive. It would be an exaggeration to say they were escaping.
Shang Chaozong also made a mistake in his decision. He ordered Su Qitong to attack Qianlijiang and then defend it, thus missing the best opportunity to pursue.
Even Meng Shanming did not expect the sudden escape of the rebels...
A group of people and horses galloped eastward in an emergency, led by Wu Gongling, who had ordered a comprehensive reduction of his troops.
When the troops and horses were resting in the middle of the journey, Quan Taifeng and others came forward and asked, "What does the general mean by going east?"
Wu Gongling said: "It's natural to deal with the enemy."
Quan Taifeng: "How to deal with it."
Wu Gongling sighed: "Elder Quan, even if you tell me, you don't understand. Don't worry, I won't risk my death. I have a clever plan to deal with it."
Quan Taifeng was speechless, he really didn't understand things like mobilizing troops and generals.
However, Shan Dongxing, the temporary head of Tongxian Pavilion, had known Wu Gongling for more than a day or two. They had known each other for many years, so they naturally knew something about him and noticed something was wrong.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to avoid everyone, Dan Dongxing approached Wu Gongling and asked softly: "General, does he have other plans?"
Wu Gongling quickly looked left and right, and then whispered: "Elder Shan hasn't figured out yet that we have been deceived by those dogs. What's holding Nanzhou back? Bullshit!"
Shan Dongxing naturally saw it. Once Nanzhou sent troops, the matter became obvious. He sighed: "The matter has come to this. We have no way to retreat, so what can we do?"
Wu Gongling had a slightly ferocious look on his face, "Han and Song want to use us as scapegoats to disrupt the situation. That's a good idea. I won't let them sit idly by. Let's go all the way east and directly go to the place where the two countries are facing each other to disrupt the situation. I think he
How could Han and Song just stand by and watch?"
To put it bluntly, he was afraid and didn't want to fight any more with the imperial army to suppress the rebellion. He wanted to run away!
