Chapter 853: Flicker, flicker
The first thing Hai Dongqing did was to order that all the young adults in the occupied cities must join the Qingjiao and swear allegiance to the Holy Father and the Holy Religion. Otherwise, it is a heretic demon and is in danger of being killed at any time. Hai Dongqing's intention is obvious, in the past, the mission was voluntary, but now it is necessary to coerce more people to join the Qingqing, and it is impossible to voluntarily, only forced. All members of the Qingjiao sect must carry out public executions of captured court officials, officers and soldiers and their families. Even if you just hit a stone, you are involved in killing someone, and your hands are stained with blood, and you will never be able to turn back.
All the cities captured by the Qingjiao have become hell on earth, and the demons in the city are dancing wildly, and many disciples take the opportunity to commit rape. Lewdness, plundering, murder, arson, and doing many evils. Many congregants were forced by the situation to join the ranks of murder and arson. Although they themselves were vaguely aware that this was wrong, they were already dizzy and could not help themselves.
When everyone was in a killing spree, Hai Dongqing and his cronies formulated a strategy. He knew that if he wanted not to be strangled by the officers and soldiers, he had to find a way out as soon as possible. Since the Liao people can't count on it, they can only count on themselves. After a long debate, Hai Dongqing decided to break through to the west to avoid the great danger of the imperial army attacking from the north and south. And the speed must be fast, and it must not be dragged with mud and water. Only by rushing out to the west and reaching the vast and sparsely populated land of the northwest can we survive.
The strategy must be certain, Hai Dongqing immediately realized that he had to take Yangwu County as soon as possible and open the passage to the west. Hai Dongqing immediately ordered Meng Xiang to go to the five counties in northern Beijing, asking him to gather the cultists in the five counties and go all out to capture Yangwu County. And guard the county seat of Yangwu. The wind must not be revealed on the east and west roads of the east, otherwise the officers and soldiers will block the road in advance. It is necessary to attract a large number of officers and soldiers to come to Jingxi Road to encircle and suppress, so that they can escape from Yangwu County to the west without realizing it. Moreover, Ying Tianfu cannot be lost, and it must rely on the strong city of Ying Tianfu to resist the attack of officers and soldiers and delay time. It can also boost the morale of the congregation.
Hai Dongqing also understands that time is a little tight. The imperial court soldiers and horses should be dispatched soon, and Meng Xiang rushed to the five counties of Jingbei to gather manpower before attacking Yangwu, and it was likely that he would encounter the officers and soldiers head-on. Therefore, he came up with a way for Meng Xiang to hide people's eyes, which was to first let the Qingjiao people in Dongming County make a gesture of attacking Fengqiu, and attract the imperial court soldiers and horses from the north of the capital to Fengqiu. After that, he suddenly attacked Yangwu. By the time the officers and soldiers of the court reacted, it was already too late.
As long as Yangwu is captured, the passage to the west will be opened. At that time, he will be able to escape with his die-hard cathars and go to the northwest to open up a new world. At that time, the fish will enter the sea and the birds will enter the sky, and the court will have nothing to do with itself.
All this was going on in secret, and only Hai Dongqing and the closest people around him knew the content of the whole plan. Those Qingjiao members who were immersed in the carnival probably never imagined that their Holy Father had already decided to flee at the beginning of the incident. And their holy father did not intend to flee with them, but to leave many people as cannon fodder to cover his escape.
Everything went smoothly according to Hai Dongqing's estimate. The day after the incident, news came that the imperial army had been dispatched. The speed at which the imperial court sent troops was very fast, which was somewhat unexpected. But Hai Dongqing didn't think it was strange. The court must be in a hurry, and the emperor in Bianliang City must be unable to sleep and eat, and he must be anxious to get rid of himself.
Hai Dongqing is actually quite proud in his heart, looking at the Great Zhou, who can be like himself, who used to stir up the court in eastern Zhejiang, and now stir up the wind and clouds in the land of Jingdong, making the emperor angry? I'm afraid it's just me.
However, as the news of the imperial army's advance into Jingxi Road reached Hai Dongqing's hands, an imminent problem was placed in front of him. How to deal with the 50,000 army of the imperial court? It's definitely a big problem.
Before Yangwu County was taken, and before the passage to the west was opened, Ying Tianfu could not be lost. Ying Tianfu is precisely the biggest reliance to stop the officers and soldiers from sweeping the Jingxi Road. Ying Tianfu had to hold on for a while and give Meng Xiang time to seize Yangwu County. At the same time, a large number of collected grain, gold, silver, materials, and manpower need time to move to the northwest, which requires a lot of time. Therefore, Ying Tianfu cannot be lost. At least not yet.
On the high seat in the lobby of the mansion, Hai Dongqing finally coughed, broke the silence in the hall, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Brothers, what I have received is urgent information from the Ningling County Branch. What is written on it, many people are afraid that they have already guessed. Yes, the officers and soldiers came. The 50,000 forbidden troops have already descended along the north bank of Bianshui, and at this moment they have passed Xiangyi, and they will arrive in Ningling County in another day. After Ningling, it only takes two days to go straight to the city of Tianfu. The deity said a few days ago that the first target of the imperial army must be my Ying Tianfu, and now they are here. Even faster than we thought. Brothers, what do you think about this? ”
Everyone in the hall was surprised when they heard this, and it had not been more than four days since the incident was raised, and the officers and men had already been dispatched. 50,000 forbidden troops should not be underestimated. However, the vast majority of the current leaders of the Youth Sect, except for a few, are already hot in their heads. At this moment, it is said that there are 50,000 forbidden troops, that is, 100,000 heavenly soldiers are coming, and they probably feel that there is nothing to fear.
"There are the Holy Fathers and Divine Warriors, the blessing of God, and the hundreds of thousands of Guardian Army of our Youth Sect, teaching them to come and go. The Holy Father gave the order, how to annihilate all the officers and soldiers under the city, the Holy Father only had to say the strategy, and the rest was wrapped up on the brothers. ”
"Exactly, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming, how dare 50,000 officers and soldiers compete with my hundreds of thousands of apologetic troops. They dare to step into our territory for half a step, discipline them if they come and go, and kill them or bury them. ”
Several apologists and Dharma protectors raised their fists and shouted loudly. The green tendons on the forehead on the neck swelled up, and he was extremely emotional.
Hai Dongqing frowned imperceptibly. He needed this kind of frenzy, but at the moment he didn't want them to be brainless. If all of them are so ignorant and ignorant, then this battle will not be fought.
"Everyone, listen to me. This time it was a battle between the two armies, not child's play. Although my Guardian Army has the Holy Father in charge and has divine power to protect the body, it still needs to plan a battle with the most elite forbidden army in the imperial court. When our sect fights with the evil demons, it is natural that we win, because if evil does not prevail over good, we will win. But the demons also have the ability, and sometimes the ability is not small. How to defeat them at the lowest cost without causing more brothers and sisters to lose their lives is something that needs to be considered. It is true that my Qingjiao brothers and sisters will be led to the Sky Temple even if they lose their lives, but if you all go to the Cloud Temple, who will worry about the affairs of the world for the Holy Father? If you can go late, you will always have to go later. Song Milling said loudly.
"What the Guardian Sect said is very true, our battle should still be fought according to normal planning. Don't take it lightly. At critical times, the Fathers will ask the temple spirits to come to their aid, but before that, we need to do it ourselves. Don't take it lightly. Another apologetic echoed.
Hai Dongqing laughed and said loudly: "Yes, Brother Song and Brother Shi are right. Last night, I had a dream from God and told the deity that this time my Qingjiao needs to survive this calamity in order to be considered a complete cultivation and to have the full assistance of the gods and goddesses. In other words, guarding Ying Tianfu this time requires our own strength. After that, it can be approved by the gods. So, don't put your hopes in others, this time it's up to us. ”
"Huh? Are we on our own? That's got to be well planned. Everyone said.
Hai Dongqing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, this battle deity is absolutely certain." As you said, my Qingjiao now has a strong apologetic army, and although the imperial court forbidden army is strong, what can it do? First, I have 30,000 elite Heavenly Dragon Protectors, and 20,000 White Tiger Protectors, which is our 50,000 elites. In addition to the assistance of 40,000 or 50,000 religious brothers and sisters in Tianfu. And then there is the iron wall of Ying Tianfu, and we are absolutely not afraid of the 50,000 forbidden troops. The only thing the deity is worried about is that you are not prepared. The deity is now very worried about the situation in the city, and now the city is very chaotic, and many people are fishing in troubled waters, killing people and setting fires. Lewdness and plunder, bad reputation of my Qingjiao. In the name of my youth religion, I did bad things. So all of this has to stop. I don't want the officers and soldiers outside to attack the city, and the people in the city will also make a fuss. When you go back, you will restrain my men, and these two days must be settled. If there are still people who don't listen, you can kill some who make a lot of trouble. For these apostasy and disobedience to orders, our Qingjiao will not tolerate them. ”
Everyone said yes. The Father's worries are not superfluous. Although the previous order of the Holy Father was conniving, but now that the imperial army is approaching, the city must be pacified, and there can be no more chaos. In the past few days, some people have begun to organize a confrontation against what the Qingjiao followers are doing in the city. Last night, the three dart bureaus located in Qingshui Street joined forces and instigated hundreds of people to resist, and even killed hundreds of sect members, which is really worrying. Although they were all culled in the end, it caused many people to worry. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Yingtianfu, and only 12 out of 10 members of the Qingjiao sect, most of whom refuse to join the Qingjiao. If they are in a hurry and they all make a fuss, then they will have to bloom in the nest.
"The situation in the city should be stabilized quickly, and later the deity will put up a notice to comfort the people and let them settle down. At the same time, be prepared for war. You must perform your duties, strengthen the weak points of the city wall before the arrival of the imperial army, and dig the silt to widen and deepen the moat. Rolling wood, stones, oil, and so on, all have to be ready to be carried up the city wall. Arrows and crossbows must be well prepared. All in all, all pre-war preparations must be carried out actively. Pray to your brothers and sisters and ask them to take an active part in defending the city. At a critical time, even if the gap is plugged with personnel, officers and soldiers cannot be allowed to attack it. Got it? Hai Dongqing shouted in a deep voice.
"The Holy Father can rest assured, and his subordinates all understand. The subordinates will do according to the Father's plan. The Holy Father is great and invincible! The crowd shouted in unison.
Hai Dongqing nodded and said: "Okay, this is the meaning of the deity calling you here today, you all understand the deity's thoughts now, and you also know the importance of this battle." Whether or not he can be recorded in the book of merit in the temple and whether he will be worthy of the throne in the future depends on this battle. ”
