The first thousand and forty-seven chapters found traces
"It seems that the cloaked man is going to have a big head this time."
Sitting on a stone by the green lake, Zhuo Mufeng threw a pebble, causing ripples in the green lake and distorting the reflection of the blue sky and white clouds. A few deep duck voices broke the dull summer evening.
Lou Linxuan stood aside, wearing a thin blue and silk shirt, still shaking the feather fan.
Zhuo Mufeng smiled and said: "I didn't expect that the Five Dynasties and the Eleven Holy Land would unite so quickly this time."
Lou Linxuan also laughed: "For those people, this move is a plan to kill two birds with one stone. They are not only aware of the cloaked man's power, but also use it as an excuse to suppress dissidents and support their cronies. Especially...
The Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Emperor of Zhongzhou and the Eighth Prince of our dynasty have all been in charge of Qiankun for a short period of time and lack a solid foundation, so they took advantage of this opportunity to make arrangements and placed confidants in various important positions. Of course they are very diligent."
Chi Qing, who was standing behind Zhuo Mufeng, had gleaming eyes. He didn't expect that there was such a level of doorway inside. Those people who were playing power were really insidious.
Zhuo Mufeng said: "So, the Eleventh Holy Land is also reshuffling the world under the banner of search to establish their supreme prestige?"
The cloaked man sarcastically said: "Since the Battle of Nuanyang Mountain, the status of the Twelve Holy Lands in the world has been getting worse day by day. This time, the cloaked man took away the Sky Poison Sect and severely damaged the Jianhai Palace. I will not take advantage of the situation to show off.
Butcher's Knife, I'm afraid some people won't be able to sleep."
Zhuo Mufeng: "How is the situation at Jianhai Palace? In fact, this is also an opportunity for us."
Lou Linxuan knew what he meant and replied: "Don't worry, uncle, Lou is not a pedantic person. He has made a series of plans and arranged for Barong and Fang Xiaodie to execute them. With the two of them here, Beitang can't delay them."
In the past. After this incident is over, I believe Beitangyi should also be in control of Jianhai Palace."
"Okay!" Zhuo Mufeng stretched and jumped down from the stone. The eaves and walls where he saw were dyed orange by the sunset. He felt happy, thinking of Wu Yuanyuan's cold treatment of him, and said to Lou Linxuan:
"Uncle Lou, Uncle Song and others have gone to various places. Now there are only a few of us left in the Sanjiang League. Why don't we drink together tonight?"
Lou Linxuan glanced at him strangely. Seeing that he was in high spirits and could not refuse, he hesitated for a moment and nodded, but he had no idea that he was being used as an excuse by someone just to ask out Wu Yuanyuan. That was not okay.
It's just a matter of telling someone...
Zhongzhou Sun Moon City, inside the darkroom.
Uncle Ming lowered his head, his voice was softer than usual, and he was reporting on the recent situation: "Some people in the stronghold have evacuated in advance, but others have been delayed due to their own reasons, so... But don't worry, Lord, there are
The Nangong Family and Dahuan Mountain are protecting us. At least the losses in Zhongzhou are not that big. Those arrested in other places know very little about the situation in the cabinet. Their subordinates have informed their superiors to completely cut off contact. The only losses are manpower.
It’s just industry.”
The cloaked man raised his eyebrows and asked coldly: "Just manpower and industry?"
As soon as these words came out, Uncle Ming suddenly became speechless. The truth is of course not as simple as what he said. Dark Night Pavilion has established strongholds all over the world, and the financial resources, material resources, manpower, etc. spent on it are beyond the imagination of outsiders. Even
It was not completed by the Lord's generation, but by inheriting part of the achievements of the previous generation, laying the groundwork for hundreds of years.
This is a force that is enough to shock the world, and it is also the most important means for the Lord to monitor the court and the rivers and lakes. Now the five major dynasties and the Eleven Holy Lands are exerting their force, with a posture of preferring to kill the wrong one, and the sample is large enough.
Under the circumstances, they were really fooled by that group of people, and more than half of their strongholds were removed.
For Dark Night Pavilion, it was no longer as simple as breaking a muscle, but a serious injury.
Uncle Ming opened his mouth, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "When the Lord inherited this family business, the stronghold was less than one percent of what it is today. In just a few decades, the achievements achieved by the Lord have far surpassed those of the ancestors. If it were not for the Lord
If we start too late, how will those forces have a chance to show their power?"
The cloaked man said calmly: "There is no point in saying this."
Uncle Ming was still unconvinced and gritted his teeth and said: "The five great dynasties and the holy land are all bullshit, but we have taken advantage of them! I really can't stand the arrogance of those people, thinking that I, Dark Night Pavilion, are just like this
, they are insulting Dark Night Pavilion, and they are insulting the Lord, and my subordinates cannot bear it!"
The movement of tapping the table with his fingers stopped, and the man in the cloak said indifferently: "Uncle Ming, why should you be angry? I have already expected the situation to develop today. People in the world are not idiots, how could they let me wait and draw a knife from behind. Now.
The loss is just a necessary process."
He seems to have a strange power that can calm people's irritable hearts. Uncle Ming's expression changed slightly, and he said expectantly: "Does the Lord have a clever plan?"
Cloaked Man: "Showing weakness to the enemy, sometimes a flaw is an opportunity. The reason why the Five Dynasties and the Nine Holy Lands mobilized troops in such a way is just for their own selfish purposes, to cultivate power and regain their prestige. Except for Zhongzhou, the other four dynasties' courts
We haven’t penetrated deeply yet, so let’s put it aside for now and start with Jianghu.
The Nine Holy Lands are currently gaining momentum. The top ones are constantly selecting their confidants, and the bottom ones are killing people for merit. It is ridiculous for a group of saboteurs to claim that they are guarding the world. We might as well use this as an opportunity to improve our power in the Nine Holy Lands.
The power will just save me some trouble in the future! In addition, you inform the Nangong Family and Dahuan Mountain, so you don’t have to deliberately hold back, otherwise it will be bad if someone discovers the clues."
Uncle Ming was stunned when he heard it. When he understood it, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, nothing can trouble the Lord. It's just that, just in this way, those strongholds that have not been exposed..."
The cloaked man said calmly: "When it's time to sacrifice, you have to sacrifice. Those strongholds will be discovered sooner or later. Why don't you give them to our people inside the Nine Holy Lands to perform meritorious service."
Uncle Ming sighed: "I believe they will understand..."
The vast purge lasted for more than half a year, and almost all the suspicious strongholds that could be found were wiped out. The Five Dynasties and the major holy places also took advantage of this opportunity to achieve their preset goals and began to slowly
Withdraw your strength.
When the snow fell in the middle of winter, the bloody storm that shrouded the court and the rivers and lakes finally dissipated, making many people heave a sigh of relief.
While all parties were acting recklessly, the chaos in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty also continued and became more intense.
In the past half year, the imperial court and the Dongfang family had cooperated closely through marriage. Three rebel military governors had been executed, and the three vacated lands were naturally divided between the two parties.
On the other hand, Cai Enping has not been idle either.
He has outstanding abilities, and now with the help of the Demon Sect, he can accomplish many things that were impossible before. Lou Linxuan also takes the initiative on key measures, and the military and financial resources of both groups are steadily increasing.
Under such circumstances, Cai Enping captured Bijie Road with overwhelming force. This was the third road he controlled after Jinghua Road and Fengxi Road.
Looking at all the remaining military governors, Cai Enping's power is enough to rank among the top three. In terms of military strength alone, it is not even inferior to the Dongfang family before the marriage. This makes him, who has always been low-key, suddenly become famous.
It has become the focus of attention from people all over the world.
Of course, it was not Cai Enping who stole the show, but Fang Zhaonan, the Jiedu envoy of Jianbei Province located in the far north.
This king has been stationed on the border, resulting in countless elite soldiers and generals under his command, which are even better than Zhang Jiaquan before fleeing. He has monopolized three areas by himself very early. Later, he colluded with the Dayongguan general of the Northern Qi Dynasty and commanded the Northern Qi Dynasty.
With the cover and assistance of the soldiers at Dayong Pass, Fang Zhaonan captured two more places, and occupied five roads by himself. He almost caught up with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and made the latter lose face.
Of course, Fang Zhaonan was also helping Dayongguan, which made Dayongguan occupy the land of two roads. When integrated, it became Qidao, which became an independent kingdom between the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Many people suspected that there was a mysterious person behind them, not only because the Dayongguan general was related to the recommendation of the demon concubine, but also because during the war, the defending generals were often killed by assassins, which was consistent with Dark Night Pavilion's usual methods.
To this end, all parties are preparing to join forces to attack.
But who would have thought that before the army could be integrated, chaos broke out in Southern Wu. The three major Jiedu envoys affiliated with the Tiandu Sect openly rebelled and launched an attack with thunderous momentum. When the Southern Wu imperial army rushed to assist, they all
The land had already fallen, and it is said that the Emperor of Southern Wu got openly angry in the court and almost drew his sword to kill people.
Then came Xichu, where a once-in-a-hundred-year plague suddenly broke out. Countless people were killed on the spot overnight, and the toxin spread out at an alarming rate. In just a few days, more than a dozen cities fell one after another, and it seemed that they could not control it.
.
The Emperor of Western Chu immediately sent a large army to suppress and maintain order, blocking all passages to prevent refugees carrying toxins from running around, and ordered the doctors of Western Chu to assemble and go to the epidemic area for treatment.
But in this case, Xichu couldn't take action anymore.
Only Zhongzhou and Eastern Zhou were left. Zhongzhou didn't respond at all, as if it was just sitting back and watching Northern Qi's misfortune. Eastern Zhou had no time to take care of itself, and the local rebels had not yet been suppressed. Moreover, Northern Qi was ready to attack Eastern Zhou, so Mu Cunyi would only take action if he was stupid.
The originally mighty gathering momentum was blown away by the rain and the wind. Qi Yuanyi was so angry that he overturned the table in the imperial study room and cursed the emperors of all the dynasties for being short-sighted and not being able to collude with them.
In desperation, he had no choice but to order Marshal Long Yuan to destroy the enemy at all costs. There was no other way. Although the Northern Qi Dynasty still had two marshals, they were both stationed on the border and could not be touched lightly...
Not only has the chaos in the world not subsided, but with the frequent attacks of the cloaked man, it has become increasingly treacherous and unpredictable.
At the same time, on a giant mountain in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Dongfang Changsheng also received the important news that he had been waiting for for a long time.
"You mean, Zhuo Mufeng is on Jinghua Road?" Hearing Dongfang Tao's words, Dongfang Changsheng suddenly turned around. The railing behind him supported the wind, and the sea of clouds rolled in the distance, creating a myriad of scenes.
Dongfang Tao nodded: "Zhuo Mufeng is very hidden. It was a coincidence that we were able to discover him this time. We underestimated him a little."
