Chu Yi nodded slightly and nodded at Guan Yu: "Yun Chang, please go and have a rest first!"
Guan Yu worked non-stop all the way. Although his cultivation was unfathomable and his body was not tired, he brought the treasure from the capital. His spirit was tense all the way, for fear of any accident. Now he finally delivered the treasure.
Chu Yi naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
He bowed to Chu Yi, then bowed and retreated.
After exiting the Chinese army tent, Guan Yu just turned around and saw eyes falling on him. Needless to say, these eyes came from Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others.
Taishi Ci stepped forward and cupped his hands at Guan Yu and said, "Brother Guan is going to the capital on the order of the prince. I don't know why?"
Everyone suspected that Guan Yu's trip to the capital sent by Chu Yi was not that simple, especially since Guan Yu had clearly escorted something into the Chinese army's tent just now. Now everyone was naturally extremely curious.
Guan Yu glanced at everyone, shook his head slightly and said: "Guan was just ordered to go to the capital to pick up something, but Guan really doesn't know what that thing is."
Some people showed disbelief, but Zhang Fei now said: "Second brother always says one thing and two things. Since the second brother says he doesn't know, then he must not know."
Huang Zhong raised his hands to Guan Yu and said, "In that case, we won't ask any more questions. General Guan has had a hard journey to the capital, so it's time to take a rest."
Watching Guan Yu and Zhang Fei leave, one person murmured softly: "I don't know what Guan Yu got back from the capital. I just don't know if it has anything to do with the prince's words about breaking the city tomorrow."
Huang Zhong frowned, coughed slightly and said: "Are you all idle? Do whatever you need to do. If the rebels take the opportunity to steal the camp, let's see what other thoughts you have about asking about this and that."
Seeing Huang Zhong speak, all the generals dispersed.
The third day was the day Chu Yi had previously said in front of the soldiers of the three armies that Hangu Pass would be conquered.
Early that morning, Yuan Shao and others appeared on the city wall. Yuan Shao even brought all his generals over and looked down at the camp in the distance.
Since Chu Yi said that he would break Hangu Pass today, although Yuan Shao and others said that they did not believe that Chu Yi could do it, they were still on guard.
We are not afraid of ten thousand, we are afraid of the worst, so at this moment, everyone is staring into the distance with full vigilance, but if there is even the slightest hint of trouble, it cannot be hidden from the people in Hangu Pass.
Stroking his beard, Yuan Shao seemed to want to break the somewhat solemn atmosphere and said: "It seems that the Chu thieves are really full of arrogance. The theory of destroying the city in three days is complete nonsense."
Just when Yuan Shao led a group of people to look at Chu Yi's army camp on the city wall, Chu Yi walked out of the tent.
At this time, a large number of civil and military personnel gathered outside the Chinese army's tent. When Chu Yi walked out, all eyes fell on Chu Yi.
Chu Yi said slowly: "Everyone, please wait until Chu breaks through the Hangu Pass, then the army comes out of the camp and captures the city pass for me."
Although they didn’t know how Chu Yi defeated the city, since Chu Yi said so, all the generals straightened their expressions and respectfully saluted Chu Yi: “I will obey the orders of the prince.”
Chu Yi slowly walked forward and left the camp, surrounded by a crowd of people, and headed straight for the high altar.
The altar is nine feet, nine feet, nine inches high, nearly ten stories high. Chu Yi slowly climbed onto the altar and looked around, just in time to see the majestic Hangu Pass in the distance.
On the wall of Hanguguan, Yuan Shao and others' eyesight was amazing, and they could clearly see Chu Yi who had climbed onto the altar.
When he saw Chu Yi's figure, Yuan Shao couldn't help but laugh loudly. At the same time, he had enough breath and said loudly to Chu Yi: "Chu thief, back then you made arrogant words and destroyed the city in three days to take Yuan Mou."
There is a head on the item. The three-day deadline has expired today. Yuan’s great head is here. You can come and get it..."
Yuan Shao's voice spread in all directions, even in camps more than ten miles apart, hundreds of thousands of soldiers could hear Yuan Shao's voice clearly.
Obviously this was Yuan Shao's intention. After all, with Yuan Shao's cultivation, if he wanted to, there would be no problem in speaking for tens of miles.
Needless to say, Yuan Shao's move was to undermine Chu Yi's prestige among the army. On the one hand, it suppressed the morale of Chu Yi's army, and on the other hand, it also wanted to boost the morale of his own army.
I have to say that Yuan Shao's heroic performance, not to mention whether it affected the morale of Chu Yi's army, but for Yuan Shao's army, it significantly improved the morale of the army.
"The general is mighty, the general is mighty!"
Gao Gan shouted loudly, and the surrounding generals were stunned for a moment. After reacting, they quickly followed Gao Gan and shouted loudly. Then the surrounding soldiers also shouted loudly. Finally, the shouts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers gathered together like a torrent.
, the sound spread in all directions.
Facing Yuan Shao's arrogant act, the people who accompanied Chu Yi on the altar couldn't help showing a bit of solemnity, and cast their eyes on Chu Yi who was standing there.
However, Chu Yi looked calm. Facing Yuan Shao's provocation, Chu Yi just smiled indifferently and said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Benchu, since you can't wait so hard, then I will grant you my wish."
While speaking, Chu Yi's expression straightened, he nodded towards Lu Zijing and said: "Zijing, prepare to sacrifice to heaven!"
Immediately, Lu Su laid out the sacrifices to heaven that he had prepared in advance. Chu Yi then walked to the offering table, and Fang Yue strode forward, holding a tray in his hand.
The tray was covered with silk, and it was obvious that something was covered under the silk.
Fang Yuexing approached Chu Yi. Chu Yi took the tray solemnly and placed it on the altar table. Under the gaze of everyone, Chu Yi stretched out his hand and pulled the silk covering it.
The silk was torn off.
When they suddenly saw the thing on the altar table, everyone couldn't help but shrink their eyes, with a look of horror on their faces.
Even outstanding figures like Guo Jia and Jia Xu couldn't help but marvel at it. It was obvious that this treasure appeared here, which was really unexpected.
The Imperial Jade Seal of the Han Dynasty, to be precise, the Imperial Jade Seal of the Han Dynasty was made under the supervision of someone sent by the First Emperor. Chu Yi actually brought it from the capital.
You must know that the Chuan Guo Jade Seal has an extraordinary status. There are many treasures in the world, but there are very few that can rival the Chuan Guo Jade Seal.
This jade seal has always been a symbol of the emperor's orthodoxy. If an emperor does not have a jade seal, it will be extremely difficult for his throne to be recognized by the world. This shows the great influence of this jade seal.
For hundreds of years, the Imperial Seal has never left the capital, but this time it was taken from the capital by Chu Yi.
For a moment, all the confusion and doubts that had filled his heart before disappeared. It was obvious that Chu Yi had a plan from the very beginning. When Chu Yi promised to conquer Hangu Pass in three days, everyone found it incredible.
After all, the natural danger of Hangu Pass is there, and there are so many elite soldiers and generals stationed there. It is by no means easy to break through. But if you have the Chuanguo Jade Seal in hand and use the power of the Chuanguo Jade Seal, you want to break through Hangu Pass.
It's really not that difficult.
As we all know, when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty in the past, hundreds of thousands of troops fought against Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu in Kunyang. Emperor Liu Xiu of Shiwu had only more than 10,000 troops under his command. It can be said that there is a huge gap between the two sides. Almost no one is optimistic about Liu Xiu's battle.
However, Liu Xiu sacrificed the Chuanguo Jade Seal, used the power of the Chuanguo Jade Seal to attract meteorites from the sky, and defeated Wang Mang's rebels in a battle, thus laying the foundation of the Eastern Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Although this secret is rarely known to the public, it is not an absolute secret. At least it has been recorded within some aristocratic families. However, since then, the Chuanguo Jade Seal has never shown its magical properties.
Hundreds of years have passed, but not many people remember that the jade seal is not only a symbol, but also a treasure that suppresses a dynasty.
Chu Yi took out the imperial seal and placed it on the altar table. This move was seen by Yuan Shao and others on the wall of Hangu Pass.
When Yuan Shao and others saw the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, they couldn't help but exclaimed: "This... this is the Jade Seal of the Kingdom!"
Some people had expressions of astonishment on their faces, but a few seemed to have thought of something. Their eyes shrank, their hearts were horrified, and they subconsciously looked towards Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao's reaction was not slow. He was suddenly startled when he noticed that several people looked strange. He thought of the legend about the imperial seal that was circulated in the family. He was suddenly startled and couldn't help but said: "Chu thief...Chu thief"
How dare he..."
Obviously Yuan Shao had already thought that Chu Yi wanted to use the power of the imperial seal to deal with him. How could this not make Yuan Shao angry?
It can be said that Yuan Shao thought too much about the methods and methods that Chu Yi might adopt, but he never thought about such a treasure as the national jade seal.
Chen Gong's expression was solemn. On the contrary, Li Ru, who was born in a poor family, looked at Chen Gong, Yuan Shao and the others with a somewhat puzzled expression.
In Li Ru's view, Chu Yi just took out the Imperial Seal. No matter how precious the Imperial Seal is, it has nothing to do with conquering Hangu Pass.
This is the difference in vision and knowledge caused by the background. Even though Li Ru is more resourceful than 99% of the people present, his poor background means that he is not aware of some secrets.
Therefore, Yuan Shao, Chen Gong, and Xu You were able to guess what Chu Yi wanted to do from Chu Yi's request for the national jade seal, but Li Ru could not guess what Chu Yi would do next because of his background.
"General..."
Li Ru felt that there was obviously a problem that he was unaware of. Otherwise, Yuan Shao, Xu You, Chen Gong and others would never have reacted so strongly. From being confident before to being worried now, this change was so big that under normal circumstances
It's absolutely impossible for it to happen.
Yuan Shao naturally knew what Li Ru wanted to say, but he had no time to pay attention to it at the moment. According to legend, natural disasters could be summoned with the help of the power of the imperial seal. Back then, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu showed off Wang Mang's face and directly killed Wang Mang who had usurped the Han Dynasty.
He lay down and turned the tide. Now looking at the jade seal passed down from the country, Yuan Shao felt that his situation suddenly became extremely dangerous.
"Yan Liang, Wen Chou, follow me out of the city quickly!"
Yuan Shao was a little panicked. He didn't know what Chu Yi would do next, but Yuan Shao was afraid. The appearance of the national jade seal made it clear that Chu Yi wanted to do something, and it was an earth-shattering event. Yuan Shao could almost imagine it.
Come on, after today, Yuan Shao will probably become famous all over the world.
Of course, this so-called famous name is just like Wang Mang back then. Wang Mang became Liu Xiu's stepping stone, and his majestic general may become Chu Yi's stepping stone to shock the world.
Li Ru exclaimed: "Why is the general like this!"
Chen Gong looked at Yuan Shao's actions and twitched his mouth. His eyes were full of disappointment. He pulled Li Ru and shook his head slightly at Li Ru amid Li Ru's doubtful eyes.
At the same time, on the high altar, Chu Yi bowed to the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo, and at the same time, an imperial edict was burned to the heaven. Then the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo trembled slightly, soared into the sky, and an immeasurable light radiated from the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo.
It shoots out and penetrates the heaven and the earth.
Just when the Imperial Jade Seal burst out with light that penetrated the heaven and the earth, the sky and the earth changed color, and the earth shook. The originally clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, as if the end of the world was coming.
It didn't matter. On top of Hangu Pass, although the soldiers were a little confused by this sudden change, they did not panic and still performed their duties to defend the city pass.
However, at this moment, there was a loud rumble from the ground. If you look down from a high altitude, you will find that the entire Hangu Pass seems to have been violently lifted up by an endless force. The huge pass is more than ten feet wide.
Cracks appeared, and the entire Hangu Pass collapsed in the blink of an eye, even though dozens or hundreds of highly skilled generals tried to suppress Hangu Pass and keep it safe.
However, human power was unable to resist the power of heaven and earth. Instead, these soldiers suffered the backlash of heaven and earth, vomiting blood and turning pale.
Among the ruins, there was a vague shadow of the Bagua array around him. Li Ru looked at the light beam above the altar that penetrated the sky and the earth with a look of disbelief. Then he looked at Hangu Pass, which was reduced to a land of ruins, and his expression turned pale.
Extremely pale.
"Hahahaha, that's it, that's it..."
Li Ru seemed to have gone crazy, and laughed loudly amidst the wailing.
The entire Hangu Pass had been completely razed to the ground at this time. Except for a handful of the hundreds of thousands of troops in the city who luckily escaped, almost most of them were buried among the ruins with the destruction of Hangu Pass.
With the support of generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou, Yuan Shao escaped from Hangu Pass immediately. Just after escaping from Hangu Pass, a terrifying power of heaven and earth came, making the hairs on Yuan Shao's body stand on end.
When they got up, there was a loud noise behind them, which made Yuan Shao and others subconsciously look behind them. After just one glance, they all showed horrified expressions.
