Chapter 5: Young People on the Ruins
In the Yin Mountains.
Yuan Wu, the most powerful emperor in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty, began to drive back to Changling.
His chariot was unusually simple, with only one cart and several horses.
The rain is gone.
The practitioner with the yellow paper umbrella no longer held the umbrella and sat in the front of the car.
The dark clouds over Yin Mountain dispersed, and the bright sky light fell, illuminating his face.
It was a man in his fifties with a clear face and a delicate long beard.
Although Emperor Yuanwu's convoy to return to Changling is extremely simple here, as long as he is accompanied and protected, there will be no problems.
Because his surname is Xu, one of the leaders of the Great Qin Dynasty.
In any records and military information from the outside world, he was overseas to help Emperor Yuanwu find the elixir.
However, his huge fleet with terrifying power had already arrived in Chudu.
And here he is.
The most important thing is that many years ago, he was one of the top cultivators in Changling, and he was the predecessor of the rest of the leaders.
When the city of Confucianism passed, the inexplicable old monk of Donghu was severely injured and difficult to recover, and when Baili Suxue was almost completely cultivated, looking at the whole world, on the way back, no one could threaten him anymore.
Even Zhao Si can't do it.
If there are variables, then his existence is the biggest variable in this war.
......
"It's a terrible thing. ”
A young man climbed the broken city wall of the Linjiang River in the Chu capital, looked at the burning palace in the distance and the city-state full of panic and doomsday scenes, shook his head, and said contemptuously.
Chu Du has been completely breached.
These hard walls, which had taken hundreds of years to build, were shattered by the various siege charms on the ironclad ships.
The giant UFO ships pressed against the young man like mountains, and the bows crashed into the ruins of the walls, but the bow of the ships was not damaged in the slightest, and still radiated a dark and cold luster from the rubble.
At this time, the surface of these monster-like steel giant ships was still scarred by the cultivators of the Great Chu Dynasty, and many of them even penetrated into the cabin, but all the originally sealed hatches had been opened, and all kinds of huge weapons stretched out from them, and most of the giant ships were not equipped in the same way, making these giant ships look like different huge steel hedgehogs.
The densely intertwined talismans intertwined into a jungle of steel, and the vitality that had not completely disappeared in the battle was stirred in it, and the collision stimulated all kinds of strange howls, mixed with a thick Yin Qi flow, like a ghost domain.
The powerful talismans and sword formations in these giant ships, especially the overwhelming number of grandmasters who came out of them, destroyed the resistance forces along the coast in a short period of time, while the sergeants and cultivators in the giant ships did not suffer many casualties.
These densely embraced ships were much more rigid fortresses than city walls.
The number of people who came out of these huge ships and landed at this time was staggering.
The number of sergeants was as dense as a cloud, there were thousands of people in each giant ship, and the number of all sergeants exceeded 100,000, among which there were a large number of cultivators and the existence of a grandmaster from Qi.
And compared with the current apocalyptic scene of Chudu, the most drastic contrast is that the landing order of the people in these giant ships is orderly, not only the army chariots and horses are extremely orderly, but also the complete corps of missions, officials, ceremonial officials and even maids.
This scene is exactly like the migration of a country.
Dressed in the official robes of the Great Qi Dynasty, this young man was one of the first people in the mission to land and was clearly one of the most important officials representing Qi.
It's just that one of his hands is disabled, and even if it is curled up in his sleeve, it looks extremely strange and even disgusting.
Compared with desperate resistance, the surrender of some powerful people in the city was also extremely effective.
Street fighting was still going on in many places, and some civilian cultivators who were usually hidden had already taken action to fight the wolf-like Qin army, but some of the missions composed of surrendered magnates had already come to the ruins of the city wall for the first time.
The representatives headed by these capitulation factions were King Chu Cheng and Zhong Zheng.
The former is one of Lilingjun's elder brothers in terms of blood, but he was born with some mental retardation, and before that, he was arranged to retire in a fief in the countryside of Chudu, and he was crowned a king at will.
His role at this time was obviously only a sign, and his fat and demented face was full of frightened expressions, and his head was shrunk between the collars, and he didn't even dare to probe.
Zhong Zheng is one of the ministers of the Great Chu Dynasty, a powerful minister in the court, and also a guest and one of the cronies of Liling Jun.
He is, in fact, the mouthpiece of this capitulation.
When he saw the face of the young man on the city wall, Zhong Zheng's eyes instantly widened to the extreme, and his face was full of incredulity.
Because he knew the young man.
Not so long ago, in Changling, this young man was just the object of their ridicule and contempt.
Young people naturally know him, too.
Looking at Zhong Zheng, whose eyes were wide to the extreme, the young man smiled softly and said, "It's been a long time, Brother Zhong." ”
Zhong Zheng quickly lowered his head.
First of all, he was humble, and secondly, he really couldn't let the young man see the change in his face.
"Lord Su Qin. He bowed deeply and said.
"You're welcome. ”
Su Qin looked at him lightly, restrained all his emotions, and said, "In the future, this matter of Chu will still need Brother Zhong's help." ”
At this time, there was a sudden change in the identities of the two parties, and Zhong Zheng didn't know how to answer.
"You don't have to think too much, we are all just a wave in the river. The change of circumstances only lies in the strength of the master who follows him. ”
Su Qin's voice was low, so low that only he and Zhong Zheng could hear it, "The larger the territory of the Ran, the more difficult it is to grasp many places. Here you represent the old Chu, and I represent Qin and Qi. You and I are the future here. ”
Zhong Zheng heard some of the meanings in Su Qin's words, and his body couldn't help but feel some shock.
"Everything is arranged by Lord Su. ”
Zhong Zheng bowed again, and then asked softly, "Why did Emperor Qi come here?"
That's what he said.
As long as he showed that he was obedient to Su Qin on his side, he would be able to ask such a very private, but most confusing question.
Everything is naturally for the sake of profit.
It is impossible for an existence like Emperor Qi to be so stupid and sacrifice an ally like Chu.
After all, for anyone, Chu is Qi's shield.
And even if Chu is extinguished, there is still Yan.
In doing this, the Great Qi Dynasty betrayed not only the Great Chu Dynasty, but also the Great Yan.
"In this world, only true power is the most fascinating. ”
Su Qin smiled, "And among all the powers, what anyone desires the most is naturally not to rely on the power of others, but to have the power that they truly control." ”
