Chapter 1193: Predators

Chapter 1193 Predator

This is the most brain-wrenching battle Fang Xie has ever fought.

Since he led his troops, he has faced countless enemies. There are many strong enemies among these enemies, but no enemy in any previous war can compare with the current situation. Even when facing Meng Yuan Khan Koktai Mengge, Fang Xie never bothered to do so.

Because, do not understand the enemy.

There is nothing to worry about in the open-face strategies that can be used on the battlefield. But war in this world is never a simple war, and sometimes one person can make a difference in the outcome of the war. For example, Wan Xingchen can kill the enemy's collar casually if he wants to.

Of course, he did the same when the Great Sui was founded.

At that time, Emperor Taizu of the Great Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, raised troops against Zheng, and Emperor Zheng was also surrounded by masters. Wan Xingchen has a sword alone, not only keeping Yang Jian safe for decades, but even making all the Jianghu guests in all places frightened. Later, Yang Jian wanted to get rid of the control of Tonggu Academy, and it was Wan Xingchen's sword that took effect.

Okay?

No, kill with a sword.

Fang Jie's current cultivation is already very strong, although it is not as good as Wan Xingchen back then, but whether it is on the rivers and lakes or on the battlefield, he can take the initiative. But now he is facing Lyman, a man who has great perseverance and ruthlessness to transform himself into something unknown.

If you are countless times stronger than the enemy, of course, you can ignore the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and just kill him. There is no need to think about any strategy, no need to bother with any strategy. It was once said that any conspiracy in the face of absolute strength is a joke.

However, this is not the case now.

This battle is not only related to the success or failure of the Black Flag Army, but also to the life and death of the entire Central Plains. Lyman may really have to return to China to deal with some things, but when he has the opportunity to annihilate the main force of the Black Flag Army and then continue to invade the Central Plains, he will not give up the opportunity.

After the first encounter, the Black Flag Army had a slight advantage.

Ruined Lyman's plan for a fire attack, destroyed the siege beasts built by the Oprus, and then annihilated more than 10,000 of the Opru's army.

In this battle, morale was raised.

In the days that followed, the weather was calm.

Fang Xie stood on the city wall, looking at the endless camp in the distance.

In terms of scale, the army brought by Lyman this time was at least around 600,000. Fang Xie speculated that Lyman might even have planned to return the 600,000 troops to the mainland, but some things changed this purpose. If Lyman feels that there is nothing worth fighting in this battle, he may also withdraw with his men.

"The Lord"

Liao Sheng hurriedly walked over and said: "I just got the news, the sailors of the Opru people really brought a lot of people and horses to go around behind us to intercept the team that scattered Jin Hou, but they were stopped by our sailors on the waterway. The foreigners don't know much about our sailors now, so they underestimate our strength. The two generals, Duan Zheng and Zheng Qiu, joined forces to block the foreigners' fleet, and after the fierce battle, they each retreated for about ten miles and were still confronting. ”

"The army transported by the foreigner fleet landed near the shore and was stopped by the cavalry of General Chen Dingnan. After a fierce battle, the foreigners' army withdrew to the ship. ”

Fang Xie nodded.

Thankfully, he thought about it enough.

The troops of Sanjin Hou were all infantry, and they were extremely tired, and if they were suddenly attacked in this situation, the losses would certainly not be small. It seems that Lyman is also a person who attaches great importance to intelligence, otherwise he would not know the situation of the Sanjin waiting team. What foreigners may not know the most about now is the strength of the Black Flag Army's sailors.

On the Yangtze River waterway before, the Black Flag Army Sailor had a confrontation with the foreigner's fleet, but that time with the help of the cultivators, the foreigners were all wiped out, so there was no information to send back. And at that time, Lyman had not yet come, and even if there was information, it was sent to Thurence.

This time, thanks to the sailors, otherwise Chen Dingnan's cavalry might not have been able to catch up.

After hearing the information, Fang Xie was also relieved, and the front and back had to be considered. And beware, Lyman turned and left.

Although Fang Xie had never met or had contact with Lyman, he could guess what kind of character Lyman was. If the war is really unfavorable, it is not impossible for Lyman to abandon these hundreds of thousands of elites and return to Opru alone.

Comparatively speaking, Lyman has more options than a solution.

"Is there any news from Chang'an City?"

Fang asked.

Liao Sheng couldn't keep up with the above ideas, and hesitated a little before replying: "The news is still yesterday, and there are only a few words on the secret letter sent by the Xiao Riding School from Chang'an City...... They all met with Ma Qianhu. ”

Fang Xie knew about this news yesterday.

Chen Xiaoru and Ma Lilian have met.

When leaving Chang'an City, Fang Xie once said to Chen Xiaoru that if things changed greatly one day, he would go to see Ma Lilian. As long as Chen Xiaoru went to see Ma Lilian, it means that Chang'an City has indeed reached a very critical time.

He didn't say anything more, and looked back at the Oprus camp.

……

……

Chang'an City

Confucius temple

Dugu Wenxiu sat in front of these people very calmly, the style of decoration in this secret room was very simple and rude, the walls were made of silver, and the tables and chairs were all gold. That's it, that's enough. In the Confucius Temple, which has been dilapidated for I don't know how many years, there is such a luxurious place.

Dugu Wenxiu's chair was placed alone opposite those people, and those people sat in a row in front of him, looking like the old men of the three sessions, and Dugu Wenxiu was the prisoner who was interrogated. He knew very well that he was sitting here and only barely walked in, and he didn't really understand this place yet.

He didn't know any of the people sitting in front of him.

"Lord Dugu"

The middle-aged man who greeted Dugu Wenxiu cordially before turned a little cold after sitting down. This person said that he himself was surnamed Dugu, but Dugu Wenxiu didn't search out from his mind, what kind of great person is there in Chang'an City in the past two hundred years.

However, how can it be easy to sit here?

"Speaking of which, maybe you and I still have some relationship."

The middle-aged man touched his bald head, and said to Dugu Wenxiu with a smile: "Maybe you are curious, there are powerful people in Chang'an City, but none of them are surnamed Dugu." My name is Dugu Bingwen, and I can't find the Dugu family for more than 200 years...... As far as I know, your family is from Changle County, Jiangnan, three hundred and sixty years ago, a branch of the Dugu family migrated from the north to Jiangnan, and settled in Changle County. That's why I said, you still have some relationship with me. ”

Hearing this, Dugu Wenxiu's face immediately changed.

"Zheng Guo's descendants?"

He subconsciously asked.

"Exactly"

Dugu Bingwen smiled proudly: "Everyone thinks that our Dugu family has already withdrawn from the stage of history, but in fact, it is just a deliberate appearance made by the family for the sake of protecting itself." I'll give you a thorough explanation now...... Do you know Pei Yan, who was once red and purple under Yang Yi? Their Pei family ancestors are just slaves of our Dugu family. Before the fall of Zheng Guo, the elders of the family knew that the world was going to change, and began to gradually withdraw from the court in order to protect the interests of the family...... At that time, the family deliberately made some small sacrifices, such as the last queen surnamed Dugu was beaten into the cold palace, only in this way would people believe that the Dugu family was going to be finished. ”

He said slowly: "But what the Dugu family has accumulated over hundreds of years, can it be finished after speaking?" It's just that the ancestors took the initiative to retreat to the shadows, and few people can know about this kind of thing. One of Pei Yan's ancestors is the housekeeper of our Dugu family, after the Dugu family withdrew from the court, they began to cultivate the Pei family with all their might, so that the people of the Pei family gradually entered the court, so that more than 200 years later, the Pei family is already a big family in Chang'an City that can be ranked in the top ten. ”

"However, a minion is still a minion."

Dugu Bingwen said: "Now, I told you some secrets, then I also want to know some secrets about you." It stands to reason that you have no reason to betray Fang Jie. After all, your original identity was no better than that of ordinary people, and it was Fang Xie who promoted you from a scholar to a big man in power, what is your reason? ”

He crossed his legs and quietly waited for Dugu Wenxiu's answer.

"Because it saves lives."

Dugu Wenxiu took a deep breath and said in a calm tone: "When Great Zheng was founded, there were few people who followed Emperor Zheng Guo in the earliest group, and there were few who died well. The same was true when the Great Sui was founded. I'm in a high position now, and that's because Fang Xie needs me to be in a high position. Once Fang Xie comes back and ascends the throne as emperor, he will take back the rights in my hands...... And if he takes it back, he has to beware of my dissatisfaction, always beware of being a very hard thing, it is better to kill Shuangli. ”

Dugu Bingwen laughed: "You can see it thoroughly." ”

He turned his head to look at the other people: "This descendant of the Dugu family is quite honest. ”

The old man sitting beside him frowned slightly, and after being silent for a while, he said, "What you said is right, this is the fate you have long been doomed." As long as you still follow Fang Jie, the ending will be the same sooner or later. But I don't believe you...... I always feel like you have some secrets that you haven't told. Just because you can get through this door doesn't mean you can fit in here, you're still far from being your own. ”

"White Old"

Dugu Bingwen was a little dissatisfied: "I am personally responsible for reviewing this person, and I have carefully checked it before and after, what does Bai Lao mean, am I also worthy of suspicion?" ”

The old man, who was called Bai Lao, replied lukewarmly: "Your Dugu family now has no successor, so I have no objection to you choosing some young people to come in in a hurry." But you're still too hasty. ”

"I salute you as a white old man, just because you are old."

Dugu Bingwen sneered: "What do you mean by this, do you mean that our Dugu family can be bullied now?" ”

The old man's face changed, and he was obviously quite afraid of this Dugu Bingwen, so he shook his head and said, "I just mean ...... Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. ”

Dugu Bingwen said: "This person, I will take care of it." If he really can't believe it, it will naturally be eliminated by the people of my Dugu family. ”

"That's good."

The old man said: "Don't forget, this is the time to move the whole body." ”

"Mrs. Bai is careful."

A man in his thirties stood up and smiled: "That Fang Xie is just a foundationless one, he looks strong now, because he is generous enough and knows how to win people's hearts." But as soon as something went wrong with him, the people gathered around him immediately dispersed. Don't think that if his cultivation is good now, no one will be able to touch him...... The layer of water he saw was still too shallow. ”

The man smiled at Dugu Wenxiu: "You can think of the previous layer, which means that you are a smart person." You may not know how much power there is behind these people here. Let me give you a little bit of an introduction...... You heard Brother Dugu's words just now. The Pei family is just a puppet raised by the Dugu family, and it is a hurricane to publicize this matter. However, after the introduction of the people here, you will understand that this is not a hurricane at all, but a natural disaster. ”

He pointed to himself: "My name is Ye Manwen, and the Ye family also has a puppet family, surnamed Yu." ”

He pointed at the old man: "Bai Lao's family, when the Great Zhou Kingdom was four hundred years old, there were seven prime ministers and thirteen generals, and then they disappeared because the Zhou State was destroyed, in fact, ...... It's always been there. Now the puppet family in Bai Lao's hands is the Liu family. The Liu family is a family that knows how to lower its figure, and there is only one person who is barely on the stage now, and that is Liu Enjing in the Black Flag Army. ”

Dugu Wenxiu's heart shook suddenly!

Ye Manwen sat down again and said with a smile: "Now you know, the so-called Yang family's world has always been our world. At the beginning, that Sang messed up a Tonggu Academy...... Hehe...... It's because we think it's a little interesting, and we can control more situations, so we sent some little people who are not in the stream, who would have thought that Tonggu Academy would actually do a good job. ”
