The sixth day of June! Great Chen Country, Luolonggang!
The sky was covered with dark clouds and the wind was sweeping the ground. Luolonggang was stationed with tens of thousands of wounded soldiers. It looked like a scene of dilapidated mourning soldiers. All the troops guarded the yellow tent in the center.
The big tent was full of officials, all looking worriedly at the dragon couch in the north.
Sitting on the dragon couch was an old man in dragon robe, over sixty years old, with a pale complexion and coughing constantly. The attendants at the side carefully served him, wiping the blood coughed up from the corner of his mouth from time to time.
On the dragon couch, there was a 40-year-old man in white. At this moment, his hands were resting on the back of the old man in the dragon robe, as if he was sending true energy to the old man in the dragon robe to heal his wounds.
"puff!"
The old man in the dragon robe spat out a mouthful of blood. The healing is over. However, the injury of the dragon-robed old man did not improve, and his face became even paler.
"Royal father!" The leader of the group of officials, a middle-aged man in a python robe suddenly exclaimed.
"Your Majesty!" All the officials suddenly exclaimed.
The old man in the dragon robe ignored the officials, but looked at the man in white who sent his true energy to him.
"Third Grandfather, you don't need to save me anymore. I know my situation. My heart is broken. I was careless!" The old man in dragon robe sighed slightly and said bitterly.
The man in white sighed slightly: "My heart is broken, Chen Taiji, you are too greedy and aggressive this time! Why didn't you wait for me?"
"I want to do my best to win this victory for the sect, but I underestimated the military god of the Song Dynasty, Gao Xianzhi! Such a powerful Gao Xianzhi, when he guarded the southern border, I didn't know how powerful he was. Even before our army Still victorious, singing all the way, unexpectedly, King Song actually handed over all the general power to Gao Xianzhi, and the army was handed over to him, it was like a god's help, unpredictable, our good situation was completely dismantled by him, the army like a tide , but let us completely retreat, King Song, he is really willing to give up! Cough cough!" Chen Taiji said bitterly while coughing.
"I told you that the battle between the Chen State and the Song State this time involves more than you can imagine. The sect behind the Song State is the same as us. They have issued a death order and must win. Whoever wins, the behind-the-scenes You can collect the newly discovered spirit stone mine!" The man in white sighed slightly.
"Grandson begs the third grandpa to kill Gao Xianzhi, otherwise, my Chen country will be defeated and even destroyed!" Chen Taiji pleaded.
The man in white frowned and shook his head and said: "I said that this time it involves too much. It was originally only for a spirit stone mine, but this time it attracted the interest of a big man who wanted to see the battle between the secular world. , ordered us not to intervene, let alone me, even the suzerain, will not offend that big man for the sake of you, a secular country!"
"What? You can't interfere? Cough cough!" Chen Taiji coughed out a mouthful of blood again.
The white-clothed man nodded affirmatively: "The sect behind the Song Kingdom is also not allowed to interfere, so don't think that your injury was caused by the sect behind the Song Kingdom, it was entirely directed by Gao Xianzhi!"
"Cough cough cough cough!" Chen Taiji coughed again.
"Report!"
A small soldier rushed into the big tent, knelt down on one knee, looked at the pale emperor who was spitting blood, and his face froze immediately.
"Say!" Chen Taiji stared at the soldier.
"Report to the emperor, Tongguan has fallen!" Xiaobing panicked.
"What? Cough cough!" Chen Taiji coughed up blood again.
"Report!"
Another soldier rushed into the tent.
"Report to the emperor, Chengshan Pass has fallen!"
"Report!"
"Report to the Emperor, Jiayu Pass has fallen!"
"Cough cough cough cough!"
In the big tent, it was very quiet, only the gasps of the officials and Chen Taiji's coughing remained.
Chen Taiji's pale face unexpectedly coughed up blood.
The man in white frowned deeply, as if he could see that Chen Taiji was about to die.
In the big tent, all civil and military officials showed panic.
"Father, if Tongguan, Chengshanguan, and Jiayuguan pass, if the three passes are missed, what will be left to the Song Kingdom is a flat plain. I, I, three-quarters of the territory of the Chen Kingdom, are basically over!" The man in the python robe revealed. The color of horror.
The man in white sighed slightly: "If you lose, you still lose. This Gao Xianzhi is so capable. Chen Guo is powerless to return to heaven!"
Chen Taiji's complexion was already flushed red: "Use soldiers like gods? Use soldiers like gods, attack east and west, break through three barriers at the same time, and the army's morale is completely lost. What a Gao Xianzhi, what a powerful Gao Xianzhi, cough cough cough cough!"
"Chen Taiji, let the crown prince succeed. There is still a Hulao pass left in Chen Guo. I hope to guard it for a while longer. Alas, what's the use of guarding it for a long time? This battle is a defeat. It's just a pity for you, son. I hope the suzerain will not anger you!" The man in white said with an ugly face.
"What? The suzerain's anger?" Chen Taiji held back his cough and looked at the man in white.
The man in white was silent for a while, nodded and said: "Maybe, I will also be implicated. In this battle, there is a big man watching. Once Chen Guo is defeated, the big man will be disappointed with the sect. The suzerain cares about the opinion of that big man. Maybe , I hope the suzerain will not be angry, after all, the opponent's military god is too powerful...!"
Chen Taiji suddenly trembled all over, his eyes changed, as if he was making an extremely difficult decision.
"No, we haven't lost yet. We still have Hulao Pass, and Hulao Pass!" Chen Taiji said tremblingly.
"Hulao Pass? Hulao Pass has the least troops, and they are all forbidden soldiers. Unlike the other three pass soldiers, they are just a group of sheep who have never seen blood, and their number is not large. How to resist the tiger and wolf army of the Song Dynasty? And, you It's about to die. Your son's ability is far from yours. You can't stop him, let alone the prince? And the country is about to lose three quarters of the country, most of the country and the people's hearts. What do you have to fight Song Guo? And the opponent is the army God, Gao Xianzhi! Mountains and rivers are shattered, rivers are going downhill, the general trend is irreversible!" The man in white sighed slightly.
"No, I haven't lost yet!" Chen Taiji said tremblingly, with a ferocious expression on his face.
"Just relying on this group of remnants to defeat the general? The country will be destroyed, and no one can stop it. Tai Chi, you should think about how to plead guilty to Zongli!" The man in white said bitterly.
"Father, is there anything else we can do? Xianzong refuses to intervene...!" The mangpao prince said bitterly.
Chen Taiji closed his eyes, and his whole body was trembling. After a while, he opened his mouth and said: "No, there is one person, he, he can turn the tide, he will definitely be able to!"
"Oh?" The man in white was slightly taken aback.
The prince in the boa robe also showed curiosity.
"Prince, please beg him, as long as he is willing to come out, as long as he is willing to come out, we can win it back, we will definitely! Cough cough cough!" Chen Taiji coughed.
"Chen Taiji, this is not the time to joke. Now that the state of Chen has almost completely fallen, who can turn the tide? The state of Song is now united, and the god of war Gao Xianzhi is singing all the way. His morale is soaring. Without the intervention of our sect, it would be impossible It will change the situation of the battle!" The man in white didn't believe it.
"Yes, he can, he can definitely!" Chen Taiji's face flushed red.
"Who? Father, who is it?" the prince asked in surprise.
"Gu Hai!" Chen Taiji spat out the name with great difficulty. It seemed that he repelled this person very much.
"The richest man in the six countries, Mr. Gu?" the prince asked in surprise.
"The richest man in the Six Kingdoms? Cough cough cough, Gu Hai? Unexpectedly, before I died, I begged you again!" Chen Taiji said with a wry smile.
"Gu Hai? Is that the old man who only started to practice after the age of thirty, and then wished to join our sect?"
"Third Grandpa, do you know?" Chen Taiji looked at the man in white in astonishment.
"I've seen him. Most of the Jindan people in my sect have seen him. As long as we are in this mundane world, the old man will find us quickly and bribe us in every possible way, begging to be introduced to the sect. However, his root But it’s too bad, and his practice is extremely late, so it’s hard to do anything, if you accept him, you will only be ridiculed by other sects!” The white-clothed man nodded.
"Gu Hai? Heh, I thought he had suppressed his chance to get in touch with the sect, but I didn't expect him to bypass my defenses long ago. Qianlong is in the abyss, hehehe, cough, cough, cough!" Chen Taiji coughed blood bitterly road.
"Chen Taiji, you said that Gu Hai has the ability to turn the tide? How can you be sure? He is just a mortal womb, and he is just an acquired cultivation level." The man in white frowned.
"Yes, father, he is just a businessman, can he command troops to fight?" the prince also asked anxiously.
"He will definitely be able to! If Gao Xianzhi is the God of War, Gu Hai is the King of God of War! Prince, you will lead all the civil and military officials to beg him! You must ask him! Even if you kneel, you must ask him!" Chen Taiji's eyes were firm. road.
"A merchant? King of the Army God?"
"Third Grandpa, try to meet his request. It's not bad that he is a merchant, and it's not bad that he is a mortal. Only he can turn the tide. If you want to win it back, you can only ask him! I guarantee it with the life of the prince!" Chen Taiji's face turned pale. A piece of blood red.
The man in white looked at Chen Taiji, frowning in thought. Originally, there was no way to recover, but Chen Taiji insisted that Gu Hai could turn the tide? Moreover, Chen Taiji's expression did not seem to be fake. The man in white also gradually became serious. After all, this battle between the two countries involves too much, and any details cannot be taken lightly.
"I will, the suzerain has given me the authority this time, as long as it is not too much, I will do my best to satisfy him!" The man in white said solemnly.
"Prince, please ask Gu Hai to turn the tide after he comes out of the mountain. You have to listen to his arrangements. Remember, any arrangement, and call him Uncle Gu! He used to be the sworn brother of his father! Cough cough!" Chen Taiji was weak said bitterly.
"Uncle Gu?" The prince showed surprise.
"Finally, say sorry to him for me, I was the one who was sorry for him back then!" Chen Taiji revealed a trace of bitterness.
After finishing the last sentence, Chen Taiji closed his eyes, his flushed face faded in an instant, turned pale, and there was no sound.
"Father!"
"emperor!"
"The emperor is dead!"
Inside and outside the big tent, everyone fell to their knees. They all cried out.
