Chapter 680: Arriving at Sword Gate Pass

At this time, a general who was in charge of guarding Qin Shuhuai hurriedly ran over, and immediately knelt down when he saw this, and said tremblingly, "My subordinates are derelict in their duties, and my subordinates should die!"

Qin Shuhuai said, "Go and get the twenty military sticks." Also, bring me Wu Yutian. ”

The general immediately said, "Your subordinates obey orders." ”

Then he ran out with a sigh of relief.

I am glad in my heart, fortunately, Grandpa Guo is merciful!

Only twenty military sticks were hit, and it was indeed light and light.

If Qin Shuhuai didn't beat him, I'm afraid Wu Yutian would beat him half to death.

After a while, Wu Yutian came to Qin Shuhuai's room.

As soon as he entered the door, he confessed his guilt, saying that he was not effective in guarding, and his sin deserved death.

Then he cautiously looked at Qin Shuhuai's face.

Qin Shuhuai waved his hand, "That's it, let's write it down." ”

Then he said, "Did Zhang Lizhen send someone over to contact him?"

Wu Yutian wiped his sweat and said, "Grandpa Guoguo, after taking control of Chengdu City last night, I will repair a letter and send someone to inform him quickly." Mr. Zhang is a person who understands the overall situation and should know what to do. ”

"Good. So, what should Li Zhongming do over there?" Qin Shuhuai asked again.

Wu Yutian said, "Grandpa Guo rest assured, then Li Zhongming will abandon the secret and surrender to the light, if he continues to be stubborn, his subordinates will definitely lead a large army to break him into thousands of pieces!"

Qin Shuhuai thought for a while and said, "Bengong doesn't have time to wait. Inform the brothers that they will set out with their fathers tomorrow morning to defeat the rebel Li Zhongming. Just bring ...... 20,000 horses. ”

Wu Yutian was stunned, why was his heart so anxious?

But he didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly said, "My subordinates obey orders!"

After Wu Yutian stepped back, Wang Datong hurriedly asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled bitterly, "The Demon Sect asked me to leave tomorrow morning to meet their sect leader in Lanzhou. ”

Wang Datong was shocked, "That master is a member of the Demon Sect? They let you go to Lanzhou? Brother Qin, you have to think about it, Lanzhou City is not Chengdu City, the Demon Sect is like a cloud of masters, if they don't want you to come back, you will never come back!"

"I know. But it doesn't seem like the Demon Cult wants to kill me. If you want to kill me, that master can kill me. ”

Wang Datong said, "That's not necessarily. They won't kill you now, and when they get to Lanzhou City, once their sect leader changes his mind, they can kill you at any time. ”

How could Qin Shuhuai not understand this truth.

Yan Wuyue asked him to go to Lanzhou, she must have wanted to say something to him. As long as there is a word that upsets him in the middle of the way, he can kill at any time.

Don't forget, Yan Wuyue is moody and has an extremely irritable temperament now.

But he had to go again.

He vaguely felt that even Mei Yinzhi, who had opposed the army before, had been released, and it was likely that there would be a turnaround on the Demon Sect's side.

A turning point for the Demon Cult to retreat.

If you can solve the problem of the Demon Cult peacefully, then you will make a lot of money.

You must know the ability of the Demon Sect, if you defend the city, the officials and soldiers don't know how much they will have to pay to capture those cities.

Besides, there were many masters in the Demon Sect who were not there before, so he took advantage of them.

Now if the official army attacks the Demon Sect again, it will really be the time for the Demon Sect to survive and die, and those Demon Sect masters who originally opposed the army can still fight to defend the Sect to the death?

In addition, the Demon Sect has recently recruited a lot of soldiers, and once the battle starts at that time, it will inevitably be a protracted battle, and the losses are incalculable.

It's a risk worth taking.

Besides, the Heavenly Sword is still in their hands. Without the Heavenly Sword, his combat power would have been reduced by at least halfβ€”otherwise, how could he have been so easy to fight with Zhao Wuxian and other Zhongcheng Realm masters before, and how could he be so easy to kill those Xiaocheng Realm masters with two or three swords?

Must go!

On the second day, Qin Shuhuai set off with Zhiren, Wang Datong, Li Dingguo and an army of 20,000. Wu Yutian continued to sit in Chengdu to stabilize the situation.

Zhou Yanru, Cao Guozhang, and Cao Guoqing were also brought with the army, and Qin Shuhuai planned to send them to Beijing so that Chongzhen could vent his evil anger. Especially this week, Yanru has bullied Chongzhen for so long, presumably Chongzhen really wants to "chat" with this old man with the attitude of a winner.

Shu road is difficult to walk, not only the officials and nobles, the general conditions of good people, when crossing the mountain will sit in a sedan chair, there is a special sedan chair in Shu, what is done is this kind of livelihood.

Wu Yutian considered that Qin Shuhuai was seriously injured and was not suitable for riding a horse, so he also arranged an eight-lift sedan chair for Qin Shuhuai.

Not to mention, it's really more comfortable to sit on than a horse.

On the morning of the third day, he met a group of soldiers and horses halfway.

The first general of the forward battalion immediately urged forward and asked, "Stop! Who is ahead?"

But I heard the other side shouting, "We are General Zhang's soldiers and horses, dare to ask, is this the army of An Guogong?"

It turned out that after Zhang Lizhen received Wu Yutian's letter, he directly took 5,000 soldiers and horses without saying a word, and rushed to Chengdu City to meet Grandpa Guo.

They also saw the army on the opposite side, and saw the banners showing "Hereditary An Guogong", "Dragon and Tiger General", "Governor of Qincha, Minister of the Dongchang Official School (the Governor of Dongchang was originally a eunuch, but Qin Shuhuai was not a eunuch, so he became a minister)", and other official cards, they immediately guessed that it was the team of the grandfather of the country.

While speaking, Zhang Lizhen hurriedly dismounted, then ran to the front of the team and knelt down respectfully, shouting loudly, "The last general Zhang Lizhen pays a visit to Grandpa Guo!"

As soon as Li Dingguo saw that it was Zhang Lizhen, he immediately brought him to Qin Shuhuai's sedan chair.

Zhang Lizhen said goodbye.

Qin Shuhuai asked, "Zhang Lizhen, are you guilty?"

The tone was not high, but it made Zhang Lizhen's scalp tingle.

How dare you argue anything, and immediately said, "The last general will be guilty." ”

"Where does sin come from?"

"Donglin conspired against him, and the last general failed to kill the thief categorically, so he asked the grandfather of the country to punish the crime. ”

Qin Shuhuai said coldly, "Mr. Zhang, my father heard that Donglin is as kind to you as a mountain, and I also heard that your wife is Cao Guozhang's niece?"

"Returning to China, the last general failed to see through the true face of the rebellion of the Donglin people before, and he really deserves death! As for the cheap one, it is indeed Cao Guozhang's niece! But in the face of the righteousness of the family and the country, the last general does not dare to show favoritism, so ......"

"You abandon the darkness and turn to the light, it's timely, and my father can spare you. However, Cao Guozhang committed a major crime of punishing the Nine Clans, is your insider considered to be within the Nine Clans?"

Zhang Lizhen was dripping in a cold sweat, gritted his teeth, and said, "Count! The last general and the last general ask the grandfather of the country to see ...... last general."

At this point, I can't say it.

He just abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and he didn't make much merit, so why should he intercede?

Qin Shuhuai saw that Zhang Lizhen still wanted to intercede for his wife at this time, but he looked up at him.

A man's husband, if he doesn't even want to protect his wife, what kind of man is he?

This Zhang Lizhen, as Li Dingguo said, is a person who values his family.

said, "Go back, take all your soldiers and horses, and go to Jianmen Pass with my father." ”

Zhang Lizhen was overjoyed when he heard this.

Grandpa Guo wants to make meritorious contributions and give himself a reason to save his wife!

I couldn't help but kowtow heavily, and shouted excitedly, "The last general obeys the order!"

Returning to his team, he yelled again, "Soldiers, turn around, and follow the grandfather of the country to crusade against the traitor Li Zhongming!"

The army moved on.

After a day, I came to Mianzhu Pass again.

Zhang Lizhen ordered all the soldiers and horses in Mianzhu Pass, a total of 45,000 people, almost poured out of the nest and continued to go to Jianmen Pass!

Five days later, the army arrived outside the Sword Gate!
