The lights in the Longwu Army's camp were brightly lit, and people in the huge military town shouted "horses". All kinds of defense equipment were mounted on simple walls. A large number of soldiers were gathered around the military town, and the soldiers were taking turns to eat.
It looks like a battle is about to begin.
"How many soldiers and horses have been mobilized, why don't we see the food and grass being transported..."
The general of Zuo Xiaowei stood on the city wall. He was temporarily appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Longwu Army. In order to prevent the military generals from overestimating themselves, the army of the Tang Dynasty did not have a fixed generalissimo for any army. The same was true for the 100,000 Longwu Army.
Set up dispersedly.
"..."
There was a moment of silence behind the Generalissimo. Only in wartime would one know who the Generalissimo was. The Generalissimo came to lead the army with a tiger talisman and a letter of pardon. He then found twenty local "Longwu Captains" for inspection, and finally learned about the mansion.
Your Excellency stamps and confirms, and only then can the dispersed army of 100,000 be mobilized into one place.
"Why don't you say anything? Don't you know how many soldiers and horses you have..."
The generalissimo turned around in shock and anger. Behind him stood only ten captains of Longwu, each of whom only had 5,000 men and horses under his command, so the full number was only 50,000.
"Sir! The county has detained the food and grass, and the troops will not come again..."
A captain spread his hands and said: "Please tell us, every county has received a letter of pardon from the court, and the seals of the three provinces and six ministries are stamped on it, saying that Tian Yangzi is the illegitimate son of the traitor Yang Pingchuan, and wants to blackmail the emperor.
In order to order the princes, I also skinned King Yujiang and replaced him with a monster!"
"Idiot! The emperor is in the Chinese army's tent. Didn't you go kowtow..."
The Generalissimo said angrily: "The person who colluded with the evil cult is Yin Zhiping. He killed the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, stole the emperor's gold seal and jade seal, and even held the queen hostage to issue an edict. If you hesitate again, when all the five armies are gone,
Come to King Qin, you will have to walk around if you can’t eat anymore!”
"Sir! The people below don't recognize the emperor. Not many people have seen you..."
A captain said anxiously: "The emperor has neither a gold seal nor a jade seal, but the imperial court issued a complete pardon letter, as well as the Minister of War and the eunuch announcing the decree, except that the emperor was also replaced, and that they were here to rescue the emperor.
If we stand in the way, we are committing rebellion!"
"Ridiculous! If you don't recognize me, don't you generals recognize me..."
The old emperor suddenly strode up, followed by the red-robed Jin Wu guards, and a group of military generals quickly knelt down with their hands in hand.
"Five armies came to serve the king. The marshal and the general are my confidants..."
The old emperor put his hands behind his back and said loudly: "My face is the jade seal and the letter of pardon. Will they be able to rebel when they see me? Yin Zhiping's clown will not be able to dance for a few days. I will personally kill him by then."
Cut it off and hang it on the top of the city!"
"Report!"
A "Tabai" with two feathers stuck on his back rushed to the top of the city, knelt down on one knee and shouted: "The five thousand cavalry of our vanguard camp turned against each other, the two thousand feathered forest troops tried to instigate rebellion, the prince's troops mutinied, the prince
I was beheaded on the spot, and the Great Imperial Master was nowhere to be found!"
"What do you mean?"
The old emperor's face instantly turned livid, and the generals on the city were also in an uproar. The generalissimo even said angrily: "The 20,000-strong army did not set off until after noon. How could it mutiny in an instant? There are still 2,000 people beside the prince."
The elite cavalry are my own personal soldiers!"
"Sir! Zuo Xiaowei did not mutiny and protected the Crown Prince to break out of the encirclement, but he was defeated in a moment..."
The other party said with a bitter look on his face: "The men and horses of the Demon Suppression Division were also dispatched. I don't know what kind of magic was used. Suddenly, thunder rolled from the sky and shook the ground. And... the prince turned into a snake demon on the spot, dragging people with him.
Pi fled, and all the soldiers saw it with their own eyes, and they couldn't believe it!"
"Bastard! How could my son be a snake demon..."
The old emperor was so angry that he trembled all over and gritted his teeth and said: "Damn Yin Zhiping, it turns out that he is colluding with monsters. I will cut him into pieces. You will order all your troops immediately. I will lead the expedition myself. See if he can survive."
How to confuse people’s hearts!”
"Your Majesty! You must not do this..."
The general marshal quickly clasped his fists and said: "Once a melee breaks out, the five armies cannot distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. It will be troublesome for the Yin thieves to take the opportunity to confuse us. We should stay here for a few days until all King Qin's army arrives. You will not come forward again."
Too late!"
"Hmph~ I will let him live for a few more days, and then I will cut off his head with my own hands..."
The old emperor walked away cursing, and the generalissimo and others also took the time to set up their defenses, fearing that they would be attacked in the middle of the night, but they did not notice at all that many pawns sneaked into the camp and picked out the places where the soldiers gathered to chat.
.
"Have you heard that King Yujiang's skin was peeled off, and the snake demon is wearing his skin..."
"I heard that! Master Zhou's war horses were all eaten, and he was scared to death..."
"Seriously? Then why didn't you eat the emperor..."
A group of gossips all gathered around. A veteran carried a spear and whispered: "I don't dare to say anything after eating it. I can't go to the emperor for a physical examination. The imperial court's pardon letters have been sent to all places. We Longwu Army
They were all surrounded, and even the food routes were cut off, so the smart ones ran away early!"
"Could it be that the Emperor was skinned too..."
A group of people looked around in fear, and the veteran whispered: "That's more than that! I heard that the adults in the palace are all monsters, so they can only surround them to rescue them first, and wait for the magicians from the Demon Suppression Department to come and examine themselves before they know that the emperor
It’s a human or a monster. Anyway, I’ll run away in the middle of the night. It’s not a good place to stay for a long time!”
"Where are you running? We are surrounded from all sides. If we catch them, we will behead them..."
More than a dozen people looked at him eagerly, but the other party rolled his eyes and said: "Silly! Run to the Pioneer Camp. The Pioneer Camp has been reorganized into the Yulin Army. Each person was given fifty taels of pay. Let's just say there are monsters in the camp.
, just come here and report the news!"
"What a great idea! If you don't become a deserter, you won't be beheaded, and you still have money to earn..."
A group of people nodded excitedly, but such remarks were spreading rapidly throughout the camp. This was not the same as escaping from the battlefield. If you ran away, you would still serve as soldiers for the court. As for who the emperor was, they didn't know who the emperor was.
…
"Sir! Get up quickly, there is an emergency military situation..."
The tent of the Huwei Army was suddenly opened. The general, who was lying in plain clothes, stood up quickly, picked up his sword and walked out of the tent. When he saw that it was already past midnight, he rubbed his eyes in confusion.
I just saw a dozen heavy armored cavalry standing in front of me.
"Long Wujun? What happened..."
The general frowned and took a few steps forward. His lieutenant said solemnly: "Sir! There are thousands of people outside the camp. They said that the emperor's camp was full of monsters. The generals were replaced. They were so frightened that they fled overnight. All of them
Come and join us!"
The Grand Marshal was surprised and asked: "It's so serious, how can the Emperor be well?"
"Master Liu! The Emperor is currently under house arrest in the camp. Whether he is being held hostage or replaced, I don't know yet..."
One of the cavalry generals cupped his hands and said: "King Yujiang was ambushed by the Demon Suppressor yesterday. He turned into a snake demon and fled on the spot. After the news spread to the camp, the soldiers kept an eye out and found out that a general was eating people alive.
, we really don’t dare to stay any longer, so we ask the Generalissimo to make the decision!”
"It's useless to ask me about this matter. I can't tell the difference between demons and demons. Where are the people from the Demon Suppression Division..."
The Grand Marshal helplessly spread his hands, but the other party said: "The Demon Suppression Division said that they are responsible for detecting monsters, but they have no ability to save the emperor. Tens of thousands of soldiers in the Shenwu Army were deceived, and they also said that there are a large number of monster soldiers hidden in the mountains. Their
It’s not enough to fill the gap between people’s teeth!”
"Sir! The Shenwu Army is withdrawing to the east. Please go out and have a look..."
A deputy general ran in with a roar, and the generalissimo's expression suddenly changed. He quickly mounted his horse and rushed out of the camp. As a result, he was stunned as soon as he reached the official road.
"Da da da..."
One after another, fast horses kept running past the front and disappeared at the end of the official road without looking back. There were also a large number of infantrymen who were holding open fire, trotting in neat lines, and even carriages pulling grain and grass were coming.
, obviously not defeated and fled.
"Hey! Where are you going? Why are you going east..."
The deputy general hurriedly stepped forward to stop a group of people. The leader said loudly: "The emperor's palace is full of monsters. Let's go to the Yiyang Demon Suppression Bureau to report it. I'll give you fifty taels of silver for a clue. Can you give it here? We all have the appearance of monsters."
Remembered it!"
"No! We don't have that spare money..."
The deputy general shook his head like a rattle. Unexpectedly, a veteran shouted again: "Master Han! You are going to encircle and suppress the demon soldiers. You must not enter the mountain. There is a hundred-foot demon dragon in the mountain. All the demon slayers are dead.
Alright, we are moving reinforcements everywhere!"
"stop!"
The generalissimo rushed over and asked angrily: "Why don't you rush to help? Running away from the battle is a capital crime of beheading!"
"General! We are not running away from the battle, we are ordered to move..."
A young general waved his hand and said: "The superior officers have all been replaced by demons. We can't tell who is alive. The Yulin Army asked us to go to the Demon Suppression Bureau to identify our identities. We are not allowed to approach the Shendu without authorization. You must not accept outsiders. Let us
If a monster sneaks into the camp, it will be over!"
"Oops! Get the Shenwu Army people out as far as possible..."
The Generalissimo yelled with a pale face, and his entourage hurriedly gathered around and said: "Sir! This is really dangerous. What if the Demon Suppressor comes to ask for help? It's not a good idea to fight, and it's not a good idea not to fight.
ah!"
"You can't fight! You absolutely can't fight..."
A master ran over quickly, waved his hand and said: "What if the monster just kidnaps the emperor and kills him in a hurry, we can't bear the huge responsibility. Your Excellency, hurry up and report to the court, saying that we don't know how to kill monsters."
, everything must be obeyed by the Demon Suppressing Division!"
"Li Zhiping won't take over everything, right? That chicken thief is smarter than a monkey..."
The general jumped off the horse in a hurry, but the master said: "This is his duty. Prince Consort Li can't hide even if he wants to. You leave 20,000 infantry in the camp. If you ask for reinforcements, you will give them all to him."
, let’s go to Dongtian Village to exterminate the cult, and if anything happens, it has nothing to do with you!”
"Wonderful! There are rebels in Dongtian Mountain. Write a memorial as soon as possible and light a fire to make rice..."
The generalissimo was surprised and ran back with his horse. He quickly ran away at dawn, and the Shenwu Army camp was also desolate. The generals looked at the camp outside the town with bewildered faces. There were no military tents missing.
The bonfire was still slowly smoking, but... no one was there!
"Where are the people? Where have all the people gone..."
Marshal Shenwu roared with red eyes, and a group of soldiers ran out of the military town in surprise, grabbing the guard who was standing guard against the wall. As a result, they all fell over with a loud crash. It turned out that they were all fake scarecrows, and even a civilian husband ran away.
Clean and tidy.
"Da Da Da Da, people..."
One of the lieutenants stuttered and said with an ashen face: "The soldiers said that the mountains are full of demon soldiers, Tianyangzi is still doing it, and the Demon Suppressing Division keeps fighting with the demons. I'm afraid we are the ones who have been deceived.
Well, how about... let's run too, something is really wrong!"
